ENVY of HP dv7-7234nr Notebook PC: HP ENVY dv7-7234nr Notebook PC and Intel 320 600 GB

Hello so I bought a new Intel 320 600 GB SSD and went to put it in my laptop, I have a crucial 240 so I'm upgrading. I put in get my recovery disks and launch the installation. Now there are a few different things that have been happing (because I've done a few times and I took it to a computer store to try because I was pulling my hair out) then one thing is takes like 1 hour to load everything and then stands up and says: IMPOSSIBLE! Another is it take too long to load all over go on udates and FAIL! It loads real slow, I did a check on said SSD that's fine. I got another thing same drive. So I was wondering I missed something maybe a driver I need to download? Maybe update my BIOS, I only did that because I can't find an update but haven't looked really hard. I went to the HP site and did all the updates it. My 240GB works great never had a problem it right to the top and boots fine. Maybe the firmware on the SSD, I saw something about this someplae. Any help would be great thanks

Sides are good. As I said it is an older SSD and just may not be configured to work with current storage controllers.

  • HP Envy x 360: updated HP Notebook System Bios (Intel processor)

    I updated my BIOS version before (about a month) but I just found out that the HP Notebook System Bios Update (Intel processor) would have been forgotten. I actually cancelled this update and when I tried to do it again once it does me no more. I contacted the HP Chat Support at that time here and they said that my laptop was very good. I got a blue screen of death once and that's all. It was the only issue I've had with my laptop. After that I have updated to the latest version of the update of the birthday a week ago w10. I don't have any problems with it, my laptop works well. I have not encountered any problems. I just reccently bought this 2 months ago.

    Well recently, I got an update in the HP Support Assistant about an update to the Intel 10 series driver. I contacted HP Chat Support and they said that my laptop doesn't have the driver. It was an update General and not directed to any specific PC. Long story short, he said as I have no need, I don't need to update and that my laptop was fine. The Windows 10 anniversary update... Well updates everything that said the tech.

    I was just wondering:

    1. is the HP Notebook System BIOS (Intel processor) update updated CRITICISM that I really need to find a link or something to update?

    2. is it harmful that I have doesn't have the update?

    3. do I really need updating?

    4. is this the reason that the HP Support Assistant advised me on the Intel 10 series driver?

    I hope that I have provided all the information that might help you to help me solve my problem.

    Answer all my answers and also explain are GREATLY appreciated.

    I thank very you much in advance!

    @PaulineTan

    Thanks for the reply to my post,

    And Yes you have covered everything, I hope!

    The 10-anniversary of windows update would install all updates driver concerned as well, so the BSOD issue you referred previously.

    (1) Although the update is not important, you can go ahead and install it as at the moment (this is optional).

    (2) Yes, you can, basically, there is nothing to worry about.

    (3) No, it is not critical.

    (4) No, it will not damage your computer.

    More updates to the bios contains a fix for the specific issues, published by the manufacturer of the motherboard (bios) and at this point because you don't have any problems on the computer, you don't have to install it.

    Let me know, if you need anything else!

    Kind regards.

  • Upgrading an Envy 15-j171nr with 8GB and 24GB SSD 16 GB cache

    I'm a 15-j171nr with 8GB and 24 GB SSD cache. Whe I have it set to purchase the Configurator said the cache of 24GO was incompatible with more than 8 GB of RAM.  'Maintenance and Service of Guide' (p/n 733845-001) said the same thing on page 5:

    «mSATA SSD»

    Support for mSATA 24 GB SSD (not available on the computer equipped models with 16834 or 12288 MB of system memory or a 256 GB or 512 GB SSD)"

    My questions are:

    -How are they incompatible?

    -How do you upgrade a 8 GB to 16 GB model during the withdrawal of the mSATA 24GO card?

    The additional DIMM module is physically incompatible with the mSATA map, they install in remote locations. I guess it could be a thermal or issue of power but neither part draws a lot of power or generates a lot of heat. This is * not * a problem with software compatibility. How will I know? Because I advanced and installed the extra 8 GB DIMMS and the laptop continues to operate correctly, but now has 16 GB or RAM.

    The question about the upgrade is because when you use the card as a cache mSATA configuring map mSATA and the mechanical drive as a RAID array. I guess when you remove the mSATA card you must rebuild the image of the operating system on the drive of 2.5 inches.

    -Craig

    Some people report if they switch to 16 gigs, they start to become quick start Intel and Intel Rapid Storage errors. If you're not, then you do not experience incompatibility. I think that HP will not sell 16 concerts with the WSSD of 24 concert because if you are using Intel Rapid Start the MSSD has contain the entire contents of the RAM and all the other files that have been stored there for hibernation. 24 concerts can be a little tight. Map of the WSSD is not accessible from the service Bay. It is hidden on the motherboard. You can actually slow down the main drive of the WSSD through the Intel Rapid Storage console. If you have installed 16 gigs and are having no problem just keep using the laptop and count you lucky. If you need assistance more let us know. I have a very similar model: the Envy 17-j029nr and played well with all the features of hard drive so I feel pretty good with her speed. HP it ready for me to facilitate a helping hand here on the Forum.

    When I run the diagnostic test on the hard drive get a smart error RU5WJO-6K27T-QFPK1F-60AD03 id C1w33EA #ABU

    Finally I have to start, but a few times I had a no device found startup, but only once did I need to reinstall windows 10

    can any body advise on what means this error code and should I look for to replace the hard drive

    concerning

    er65

    HERE IS THE MANUAL for this PC.  Replace hard drive starts on page 48, but indicated that 56 in the area of the manual drive.

    In this same page 100 reported in the box as 108 States "light up the computer or restart the computer, quickly press ESC, then press F10.  This is part of the BIOS information.

    The set of recovery disks will be back as 'new plant' just as it came when new.  No other software is required.  If M$ Office has been installed, maybe check if the disk key and products are always available.

    To the extent where the SSD, do not have the recovery disk set up to automatically accept that in the PC when you run the recovery disk set.  You can try, but I expect to say that the computer has changed and he does not meet the conditions to use the set of recovery disks.

  • HP ENVY 15 Notebook PC TS: Intel Graphics HD 4600 Driver

    I upgraded this Windows Update 8.1 for Windows 10 notebook. The start menu, the edge browser, Metro Apps etc tabs turn dark when I move the mouse cursor and does not resume normal colors. The background and foreground is almost the same color, make the text invisible and useless apps. I finally have it isolated to the Intel driver. When I turn off the PC functions with the NVIDIA driver on the second graphics card. Of course, I would use the built-in HD 4600 graphics card adapter to save the battery. I did everything to find a working driver, but the latest driver on the HP site does not solve the problem and that Intel has no other driver available. Can you please help as Intel reminds me of HP? I couldn't find other drivers on the Microsoft web site.

    So after some fiddling and in desperation I found a solution that works for me.

    Open the Intel HD Graphics Control Panel and select 3D.

    "Disable"Application Mode Optimal", I also changed" conservative morphological Anti-Aliasing "Application Enhance settings."

    This solved all my problems although there are some fonts that are still a bit blurry, but nothing that bothers me.

  • Envy 15 k233ca: memory upgrades and hhd

    I'm trying to find out if the k233ca has a capacity of upgrade. By reading the plug here and there, the motherboard has 2 slots and there is 1 to 8 GB 1600 Mhz DDR3L module.

    When I called customer service to see if there was a favorite of the seller, they told me that the Ram was not expandable as the machine has only 1 location and tot of the MB does support up to 8 GB.

    Well...

    As a technician, I'm leaning towards believing the former rather than the latter, and since I did not open upward again, I checked Everest and it shows 2 slots, one with a 8 GB module and a location empty.

    Before I open the unit to find this information for me, I wondering if someone is more familiar with this device, or can point me to a more detailed specifications and current page?

    My questions are specifically,

    1. What is the model of the motherboard more precisely and will support 16 gig?
    2. This is a configuration of dual slot, so I can use 2 x 8 GB modules?
    3. Can I use a low latency Ram? replace the original module to match of course...
    4. Is there a QVL for this MB?

    Now for the HHD, a question... This machine will support SSD?

    Based on the HP ENVY 17 Notebook PC HP ENVY 15 Notebook PC HP ENVY Notebook PC - Maintenance and Service Guide of m7, it seems you should be able to switch to 16 GB of RAM and an SSD as follows;

    Memory

    Two SODIMM slots
    Support of the DDR3L - 1600 MHz Dual Channel
    Supports up to 16 GB of RAM in the following configurations:
    ● 4096 MB total memory (4096 × 1).
    ● 8192 MB total memory (4096 × 2)
    ● 8192 MB total memory (8192 × 1).
    ● 12288 MB total memory (8192MB 4096)
    ● 16384 MB total memory (8192 × 2)

    Hard drives

    Supports 6.35 cm (2.5 in.) 9.5 mm hard disks (. 37-in) and thicknesses of 7.0 mm (. 28 - in) (all hard drives use the same bracket)

    ● 750 GB 5400 + 8 GB NAND HARD 9.5 mm drive hybrid
    SSD drive

    Only configured with up to 8 GB system memory:
    ● 256GO M.2 SATA (MLC)

    ● 1 TB (5400) 9. 5 mm + 256 GB SSD SATA in m2 (MLC)

    Please note that it requires an extensive disassembly and reassembly of the computer to make these improvements, including

    remove, replace or loosening the screws up to 83. Also, note that other RAM/HDD/SSD configurations can run on this computer. It may be possible to have a facility that includes 16GB of RAM, a standard SATA III SSD and/or m2 SATA SSD card, but you will have to experiment to see specifically what works on your model.

    Your laptop of HP ENVY 17-j150ca is basically the same as my computer laptop HP ENVY 15 t-j100 CTO, only bigger. You will need to provide the Intel AHCI / RAID drivers during the first part of the installation. Please download "f6flpy-x 64.zip" of Intel Download Center. Expand this and place the file/folder on a USB key. Then;

    (1) DISABLE "Secure starting" and ACTIVATE the standby mode 'legacy' in the BIOS. Save and EXIT

    (2) enter code as it is necessary to recognise the change

    (3) reboot and press 'ESC' and then 'F9' when prompted. Select "UEFI - CD/DVD" or "UEFI - USB key... and boot from the DVD of Windows 7 SP1 or a USB key.
    4) click install now
    (5) to accept the license agreement
    (6) when the option to select an installation type, click (custom)

    (7) there will be a link called it loads drivers, insert the USB stick with the Intel AHCI / RAID drivers, select the USB and it should load the appropriate driver.

    (8) continue the installation by following all the guests... BE SURE TO SELECT THE PARTITION NOT USED FOR INSTALLATION

    Good luck

    Most of the Windows 7 drivers for the TouchSmart from HP ENVY 17 t-j100 CTO Notebook PC drivers of Quad Edition page should work on your computer.

  • HP Envy, Windows 8 slow, late and does work does not correctly

    Hello

    First off let me give a run down of my installation:

    -HP Envy Dv7, (about one and a half years)

    -Windows 8.1 (I upgraded windows form 8)

    -HDD 750 GB (Stock)

    -Everything else is stock based on the computer

    So, my trouble started about 3 months after what appeared to be a routine stop after a day use.  The next time I started my computer took a lot more time to start, I got an error that talked about my control center catalyst having an error and does not and that nothing would be open to all.  After the merger with different ideas on how to solve the problem, I dropped and it factory reset.  This fix has worked for the whole two days were once again, I got the same problems, I did another reset and when it does not work I gave up for a while.  About two weeks ago, I again have to reset it and then updated for windows 8.1through microsoft dreamspark.  This seemed to fix my kind of problem, the same questions (not counting control catalyst who never returned after the update) would be upward if I have it plugged anything in the USB drivers.  Now for some unknown reason which was not the case for my wireless mouse which worked just fine.  If at this point, I have a mouse plugged wireless and no problem whatsoever.  One day I shut down my computer with the mouse is always plugged (I never do usually) after I do all my troubles to come back but enlarged.  I tried to do just a refresh of windows but it says that my hard drive is locked and let be honest I really want to keep refreshing and resetting my laptop and lost al my stuff.

    So now, here's a list of my exact problems in most occuences recentof, now:

    -Slow start and typing in my password take like five minutes to register that I typed in fact anything

    -l' unlock screen is for like five minutes

    -My Office take a good ten mintues to load all my icons and others

    -J' have a popup that says IEWebsitelogon, not having that take a long time to close

    -EACH window is delay, that is difficult to change their size, move about minimize, close, etc...

    -Every thing take > then five minutes for open including Manager, start menu task

    -Much more delay and related issues

    What is one thing to hard drive? They are not too expensive to replace, so I can get another copy of the win8 form my school so if that is the question that is very well.

    I really need help, my computer is basically usless, I am a student I need my computer please help me.

    Hello

    As you probably know, the error code 24 characters for short drive Self Test (DST) would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.  It is also entirely consistent with the problems of performance, as you describe in your initial post.

    If there is no help, the player at the link below is an example of one that would be perfect for your laptop.

    I have a HP ENVY 17j180ca delivered pre-installed with Windows 8.1 x 64. I'm not the biggest fan of the operating system, so I pulled out my copy of Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 for dual boot. Installation of Windows 7 passed without worries, however, finding drivers appear to be a challenge. I post a screenshot of the drivers I need, but is one of the drivers that I need my wireless, so I am writing this post on my installation of Windows 8.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Upgrade the processor with AMD 10 - 4600M of HP Pavilion dv7-6101er (lz661ea) FS1 and FS1r2 taken

    Hello friends. I own HP Pavilion dv7-6101er (lz661ea) and I want to upgrade processor. Current processor is A6-3410MX and socket FS1 I want to replace for socket AMD A10-4600 M FS1r2. But I'm not shure will be new processor works in my notebook? I asked this question in support of the ADM, they said that the two CPU is compatible, but need software support in the bios of the specific laptop models. I can't put this question to the HP support because the time of free assistance of my model is over. Please ask - my notebook BIOS will support a new processor?

    n00x wrote:

    All of what you have written - I understand that. But understanding and you - the replacement of the processor is necessary because the lack of performance. For a new book, I have no money. You are an employee of HP and can really help to ask someone of your colleagues who will know exactly to run the new AMD processors in my notebook. All my books have HP I have always helped the company - buy its products, help me and you now. I'm not pleading for much - just a concrete answer - will work or not?

    N° !! That's where you're wrong. I'm not an employee of HP.

    Very few of us here in the forums are employees of HP. Those who are, with few exceptions, are here volunteer their time to help the owners of HP products. It is a peer to peer forum, where the owners of HP products share their time and expertise, helping others who need assistance. We are here to help. We help voluntarily.

    There is no concrete answer on this. Sometimes an upgrade to a non supported CPU will work, but more often it will fail.  Read my previous posts. The risk of any currency you use in your country to buy the new processor is yours, not me, or HP.

    Here's a solid answer for you... Use a processor that is listed in the Service & maintenance Guide and your chances of success of upgrade will increase considerably.  I can't say that your upgrade success will be guaranteed because there's always the chance you can break something during the assembly/disassembly or not having knowledge of a critical assembly/disassembly procedure and inadvertently destroy your new processor.

    If you want a high-performance CPU and chipset in a laptop computer, then choose when making a purchase of laptop. Computer laptop/notebooks are not actually intended to be upgraded.
