Hello @gwatanaj,

Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

I read your post on how your laptop will display a blue screen with an error message indicating "iastora.sys", and you have been unable to perform a system recovery. I'd be happy to help you!

That means the error full status message on your computer screen? Have you installed new software on your laptop computer before this problem occurred? Is the the same error blue screen every time, or is it different every time?

In the meantime, I recommend that you follow the steps described in this document on HP System Recovery troubleshooting (Windows 8). This will help you to successfully recover your operating system.

Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, as well as the information requested above. I look forward to your reply!

  • Envy 15-j108el: update Wi - Fi adapter

    Hello

    I would like to know if I can update/change my wireless HP Envy 15-j108el adapter because I have too many problems with this, the connection is very slow and only standing next to the router I can surf the internet in a decent way.

    The adapter is the Ralink RT 3290, I searched the internet and I found some bad reviews about it. Can someone suggest me a better adapter for my laptop?

    Hello:

    First, verify that your current wireless card has 2 antennas connected to it.

    See the below maintenance manual to see how to access the compartment of the wireless card.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c04091768

    If the card has 2 antennas connected to it, I recommend that you install either the:

    Hello @TheAcrobat,

    Thanks for the quick response!

    Usually, you would be able to use the Recovery Manager to install the software that was loaded on a laptop computer at the factory.  However, if you did a clean install of Winodws 10, it is likely that you no longer have this option.  Here is the document with the information, just in case:

    Computers HP - using Recovery Manager to restore the software and drivers (Windows 8)

    If you no longer have this option, you would need recovery media, restore the laptop to its factory settings.  For your product, I do not see on the website of HP recovery media.  Then you can consider contacting the HP support by phone for additional options.  Please use the following http://www.hp.com/contacthp and create a folder for your question and contact HP.

  • Desktop HP Envy h8-1485ea: hp envy h8-1485ea slow at startup

    I have had this PC for a few years now and even though I keep the start up programs at least the boot time is now about 5 minutes.

    I think that this pc has a 16 GB drivewhich SSD I thought caching was supposed to prevent from starting slow times.

    The PC is a desktop 64-bit HP Envy h8-1485ea system.

    Is it possible that when I upgraded from Windows 8 to 10 of Windows operating system has been installed on the main 3 TB hard drive? If that were the case, how should I move to the SSD drive?

    Or should I put the SSD drive and if so, what specifications?

    The SSD 16 GB drive aims to speed up access memory, is not to speed up the startup time.

    The upgrade to Windows 10 made for the operating system on the hard drive of 3 TB. Upgrade Windows 10 will not install to one as small as 16 GB of SSD.

    You can install a SATA 160 GB SSD and a greater capacity and configure it as a startup disk.

    Use the hard drive 3 TB of storage.

    It is recommended that clone you the current startup for the SATA SSD drive before you install it in the desktop PC.

    Friendship will be the start-up and operation of the PC.

    He sees the Linux bootloader and tries to fix it. You need to install your OS' are in conjunction with each other. Perhaps you could try booting from a floppy disk to repair GRUB and see if you can not solve the bootloader to enable either Windows or Linux at startup but that is the only way I know Windows and Linux running side by side... have GRUB (the Linux boot loader) on the main hard drive and it comes up with an option to start. If you want to run the OS' are independent, disconnect the drive that has only the other OS on it.

  • startup of HP envy 15 t-j100

    Hello the Hp team

    I bought a new hp envy 15 t-j100 (8 of 64-bit Windows). during the installation of some programs I installed another windows start menu (I thought it's menu start windown 7 for windows 8), but after, I discovered it's a windows startup menu 8 for windows 7.

    This caused my computer to stop posting anything after the start. I restarted several times but nothing shows up on the screen, except the mouse cursor.

    Please note that I have no recovery backup for my computer.

    any suggestions?

    Stop of the laptop and leave it like that for 10 seconds.

    Tap here to f11 as soon as you press the power button until you see a message "Windows is loading.

    On the next screen, select your Keyboard Layout and on the next screen, select Troubleshooting.

    Select 'Advanced Options', and then select System Restore.

  • Envy 15-j101ex: HP Envy 15-j101ex - Windows Pro 10 x 64 - HyperV - startup freeze

    I have a laptop HP Envy 15-j101ex.  It is running 64 bit Windows 10 Pro.  There the last HP BIOS: Insyde F.65

    I need to turn on Hyper-V (hypervisor hyper-V).  I added the Windows features (enabled in the Control Panel Add Windows features): platform Hyper-V and the Hyper-V management tools.

    Work for the Hyper-V hypervisor, virtualization hardware support must be enabled in the BIOS.  The laptop supports hardware support for virtualization.  But when "Virtualization technology" is enabled in the BIOS (with active UEFI), it ends with a freeze on startup with the circle of rotation (under the logo of HP) and the laptop won't boot.  Virtualization technology must be in the OFF position or the will of the laptop does not start.

    I checked on the Microsoft site and ran the tools proposed: coreinfo.exe, check the SLAT, DEP status checked.  Everything on the laptop is as specified in the requirements for Hyper-V.

    > - what someone faced this problem?

    > all suggested fixes?

    Note: I've seen suggestions to turn Bluetooth off and uninstall the driver. But if I uninstall the Bluetooth drivers, Windows will automatically reinstall the Bluetooth drivers after a reboot. And if the BT device is just disabled in Device Manager (without uninstalling drivers), problem (defective start).

    Thank you very much!

    Problem finally solved manually!

    Cause: Windows 10 and HP site give BAD (old) version of the Mediatek (Ralink) drivers for this laptop HP Envy (15-j101ex).  Had to manually search for drivers updated on ALL HP websites.  And after many wasted hours (trying to locate the drivers and trying to disable bluetooth constantly) found the Mediatek drivers updated.  Please see the links below.

    Solution:

    Download the drivers for the adapter Mediatek Wireless LAN RT3290:

    http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/SWD/public/detail?swItemId=ob_150624_1#tab3

    Download drivers for Mediatek Bluetooth adapter RT3290:

    http://h20566.www2.HP.com/hpsc/SWD/public/detail?swItemId=vc_159313_1#tab3

    Install the drivers and then turn it ON "Virtualization technology" in the BIOS and you should be good to go!

    HP support could be more USEFUL:

    The web site for this laptop should provide access to the latest drivers for Windows 10.  And the database of drivers window must be updated so that Windows 10 provieds the LATEST drivers for HP laptops.

  • HP Envy Phoenix 810-130QE Causes of Hyper-V hangs at startup

    I'm having a problem with the help of Hyper-V on my new computer and after that try almost everything has suggested two on these forums and on a myriad of web search I'v could not solve the problem, so I hope someone might be able to help out me.

    I found the setting in the BIOS to enable hardware virtualization and walks.  After that, the system would start fine.

    I then went to programs and features (WIN - X), then "Featurs Turn Windows turn on or off" and permits to Hyper-V and all it's subcomponents as seen in the following screenshot...

    That's where I ran questions.  After the reboot, the computer hangs at the HP logo with the loading circle spinning and will spend.  I even went so far as to turn all night without success.

    Everything I bought this computer is because I need to work with the development of Windows Phone and run emulators requiring Hyper-v and this feature was not available on my Core2 Duo aging system.

    I tried using other versions of the Bluetooth driver that was mentioned in the forums without success.

    I tried to disable Secure Boot, again mentioned in these forums with no luck.

    I am out of options and I am desperate to get this problem resolved.

    For now I have disabled hardware virtualization in the BIOS that allows me to start, but of course the features of Hyper-V that were installed earlier didn't work so I'm no better off than when I started.  Any attempt to reactivate the hardware virtualization in the BIOS leaves me hanging at the start of the HP logo screen.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I was finally able to get Hyper-V works fine on my HP ENVY Phoenix 810-103QE by installing a new copy of Windows 8.1, the upgrade to Pro and then reinstall all the drivers except the Bluetooth drivers.  The installation was not the restore partition but was using a retail DVD Pro Windows 8.1.

    Any attempt whatsoever to install the Bluetooth drivers that either before I had Hyper-V running or after have resulted in a failure.  In the case of installing them before you have a Hyper-V running it will expose the shot to the startup problem.  In the case to install after having Hyper-v running would cause an accident immideate and dump during installation.

    It seems to me that we have to wait until Microsoft, HP, or Bluetooth chip provider (in my case it is Ralink - now MediaTek) release updated drivers, firmware or software battery Bluetooth for solve the problem entirely.  Because I don't care about Bluetooth on my desktop PC is not that big of a deal for me, but it may be a deal breaker for others.

    If anyone is interested, I can provide more details about the installation process or answer any questions you may have about how I went to do it.

  • HP ENVY Phoenix 810-230qe fails intermittently load Win 8.1 at startup

    I've had my HP ENVY Phoenix 810-230qe with Windows Pro 8.1 for a little over a month now.  I love the computer, but I had a problem.  Sometimes at startup, the HP logo will appear on the screen of the monitor and that's where things stop.  Windows 8.1 does not attempt to load.

    The first time this happened, I turned off the computer after a few minutes, then started again, but it's the same thing.  After having thought about it for a few minutes, I turn it off again, then turned on the power and you press ESC several times to get the boot menu appears.  Then I pressed F9 to get to boot device Options. The list of the options I have are:

    • UEFI boot sources

    Windows Boot Manager

    UEFI: IPv4 Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller

    UEFI: IPv6 Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller

    • Sources of boot legacy

    In this list, I chose Windows Boot Manager and press ENTER.  The HP logo reappeared and then Windows 8.1 began, to my relief.

    Since then, it happened again a number of other times, but in no set model.  Sometimes it loads Windows without problem, while other times it does not.  I'm now ESC, F9, the Windows boot manager selection quickly when this happens and it loads Windows and all is well.

    Anyone have any ideas on what is the cause or what to do to fix the problem?

    Hello

    Which should not happen with your new PC.

    Shut down the system and check mother HHD or SSD/card power and data connections.

    You can also start to the start menu and run UEFI HDD and component diagnostics.

    Try to reset the BIOS by default. Try a different cable SATA 3.0.

    If you find some mistakes of disc/component and wiring is secure, save all the necessary data and do a factory restore or use Windows Recovery and do a Reset.

    If the problem persists after a restored factory (Reset), then you have a type of hardware problem. Could be the SATA controller on South Bridge or some other motherboard fault. A restore successful factory (the problem disappears) should eliminate all corruption software reserved System / Boot partition.

    You should probably contact HP support for warranty assistance if the problem persists after a factory restore.

    Well the other day something blue screened but froze during this process and seeds of graphs in this screen. Corruption and blocks appeared and disappeared. I was forced to close during the blue screen as something bigger was not working for the crash dump process, it stood at 0%.

    To restart the device display lights, and no noises are made beeps indicating a problem. The Bluray makes his usual preparation sounds it does every time you start upward. He's sitting with a white screen which seems not even to be turned on. The only other indicator is the key caps lock flashes several times and turns off, then blinks several times and turns off, repeating this sitting here...

    What part is probably dead on this sucker? CPU? DRAM? Motherboard? Graphics card? How badly can I turn if he doesn't...

    While he sits there, various lights keyboard are on as said... Caps lock flashing.
    Power LIGHT on. In my view, that the wireless light too... The light HP envy on the hood is also on...
