Envy 15 BEATS 3040NR audio dial/button replacement

I got this laptop from a friend for free, it is out of warranty and I had the problem of button sticking audio BEATS feared the second time I tried to turn on the laptop. It seems quite common problem and I basically disconnected the button/wheel of the motherboard, but now does work ' t sound. So either I replace with a basic resistance or replace the button or live without the sound.    Everyone there is cavalier it with resistance so that sound works or has someone paid for a button in replacement of HP, if so, how much is?  I guess I can control the sound via the software so I could no less care on the dial. And I can't turn the sound enabled/disabled via the software as well. I'm not a gamer, so the only thing I really want to use the sound is for pandora, music, MP3s, etc...

OK, managed to fix the stuck button then I plugged the ribbon cable in my motherboard and it seems to be good. The dial still works to control the volume, but I dare not ever push this button again. I presume that it must toggle something related to audio. (I haven't watched what he does (another completely screw up the phone when he's stuck!).

I followed the instructions above to remove the three screws philip head and uses a very small allen key to force the switch to be stuck.  No amount of banging or dismiss or even the lubricant of bicycle chain should take off the top for me button.

  • Speed dial is replaced by another program instead of opening in a new tab program. How to solve?

    I've been using Speed Dial for a long time and when I click on a button, usually a new page opens, leaving the available speed dial. Recently, whenever I click on a speed dial button, the new page opens instead of Speed Dial. I want new Speed Dial, I should back up page by page or restart Firefox. This occurred only recently and it is very annoying. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

    Finally also remember that instead of clicking the icon of speed dial, I can do a right click on it and click on 'new tab '. This way it will return in a new window. This isn't the way it has always worked. I wonder why the change?

    Thank you. I right click on the box and he gave me the opportunity to open the site in a new tab. Nothing on the opening always inn a new tab. Hope that I will always remember right click goes forward. Thanks for your help.

  • Envy 17 K205nl: Envy 17 k205nl driver (audio Beats + buttons) page

    Hello

    I bought a brand new Envy 17 K205nl a few days ago and downgraded to windows 7 SP1 x 64 (cloned my old HDD, since I haven't the time to reinstall everything)

    I managed to install all the drivers properly, but I now have 2 things missing:

    -Audio work but no Beats Audio and speakers are very weak without it...

    HDAUDIO\FUNC_01 & VEN_10EC & DEV_0290 & SUBSYS_103C229D & REV_1000 and

    HDAUDIO\FUNC_01 & VEN_8086 & DEV_2808 & SUBSYS_80860101 & REV_1000 (why I have 2 sound cards, audio bt + Nvidia audio?)

    -Function buttons (they do not work properly, but I have no GUI and my bright orange F6 Mute button lights when you press on)

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    p.s. This page: http://support.hp.com/it-it/drivers/selfservice/HP-ENVY-17-Notebook-PC-series/7527536/model/7633630#... shows no driver/software for my laptop, for the two windows 7 or 8.

    Thank you for the update!

    For more information, the HP System Event (sp71156) utility works also under windows 7. My button mute is now illuminated pressed orange, but still no GUI with the exception of the FN + ESC which displays now system information correctly.

    Installs the audio software (sp69618) and now I get the Panel audio beats up & running as well as the key FN + B.

    Extra:

    Setup HP Coolsense gives an error during installation, may be missing some required software but I don't have any additional info.

    Perfect!

  • Beats Audio volume buttons not working not

    The volume buttons (F9, F10 and F11) on my HP Pavilion dv7-6c95dx suddenly stopped working. When I press the buttons that the OSD Audio Beats rises and display current settings, but the volume does not change or cut. All other buttons (WiFi, display settings, help, multimedia controls) work very well. It is only the volume controls that are the cause.

    The Beats Audio appears in the plateau area and its utility is working to change the volume. The same with the standard Windows Control Panel. If I cut the audio in the red button the button mute comes on.

    I have searched the forums and based on different missions for similar problems I've updated the BIOS, audio driver, the software of the Quick Launch bar and Viewer on the screen with no result. I don't know if its possible to uninstall and reinstall the CP Audo beats or if it is part of one of the other driver packages.

    My OS Windows 7 64 bit if.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thank you.

    Had considered using the Windows system restore?

    Choose a restore point prior to the beginning of the question.

  • HP Envy 14 (beats): more great disc into optical drive replacement

    I am trying to upgrade my HP Envy 14 after moving for Win7 to 10.

    I still like the phone, but the start time, which I found was a bit slow, and I need more storage than the 750G that I currently have.

    I changed the HD to a SSD, which set the start time, 500G and intend to remove the DVD drive and replace it with a HD in a caddy.

    Previous forums show that it is possible to transfer the original disc to this place (currently 750G).

    The questions are -:

    Is that you can use a disc more?. What is the maximum? A bios upgrade would affect the possibilities?

    Thank you. It's the ifo that I needed.
