• ENVY of HP dv7 w / Win 8.1 freezes after the closing and re-opening of lid

  Computer: HP dv7 ENVY

  Processor: Intel Core i7-3820 QM 2.7 GHz

  OS: Windows 8.1

  Graphics Card & Driver: NVIDIA GeForce GT 650 M (worm 331.82)

  Since the passage of Win 8.0 to 8.1, my laptop does not respond to the new entry after the closing and reopening of the cover.  As an attempt to circumvent the problem, in Control Panel (Control Panel > hardware and sound > Power Options > System Settings) I selected 'doing nothing' for preferences "when I close the lid.  After having opened the lid, tab browser fail to loa, windows cannot be enabled/disabled and CTRL-ALT-DEL gives no answer (preventing access to even the Task Manager).  The computer must be restarted to continue in force.

  This solution seems to have worked, even if I do not know why the four actions that were "resolved" by the resolution of the problems of power would cause the issue.

• ENVY of HP dv7-7332ea Downgrade to Windows 7

  Hello

  I want to downgrade my WANT HP dv7-7332ea for windows 7 and I have a few questions, is that possible? Should I have all the drivers I need after?

  Thanks for your time and your help.

  Best regards

  Nuno Pedrosa

  Hi, Nuno:

  W7 is not supported on your laptop by HP.

  If you decide to install W7, HP will provide no support for the operating system problems.

  Before installing W7, you should make your media recovery W8 first the case where something goes wrong, or you just decide the W8 back on the PC.

  All the W7 x 64 drivers and software for this model should work on yours.

  DO NOT USE THE BIOS FILES

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?OS=4063&LC=en&cc=us&DLC=en&sw_lang=&product=5273735#N506

  In order to install W7, you must go into the BIOS and enable the legacy mode and disable secure boot.

  Secure boot is not compatible with W7.

• ENVY 15 t-j000 quad edition cto: outputs audio switching does not work in windows 10 birthday when the headset is connected

  Hi guys.

  As you know in 10 anniversary update windows, you can switch between outputs sound when the headphone is plugged directly from the sound icon in the taskbar, but it does not work as it should. If the headset is unplugged then the sound comes from the speakers and they are plugged in when the noise is coming from the headset and I can't select speakers. It shows two devices, but when I select one of them the speakers are selected. Also I tried to playback devices, but still, I can't put the headset as default playback device. She is forced to be like the only communication device. I've updated the audio driver but nothing has not improved. My audio driver is codec IDT high-definition. In addition, I tried the generic driver from the sound of microsoft, which is called "codec high definition audio" and it shows a device like speaker and it doesn't detect any helmet or communication device. So, what's the problem? I am able to use this option of windows 10 birthday or not? If yes how? I need this option because I use a headset a lot and I don't want to plug them each time. Thank you for your attention. I can give additional information if it is needed and I'm hear to help.

  Hi David,

  If you remember, I had problem with the IDT driver after upgrade to windows 10 and other updates. I'll be back to tell you good news. Finally, I solved the problem partially and I'll explain what I did.

  Today, I found that there is some audio drivers in the microsoft catalog site, so I went out there and looked for a codec high definition audio. A list came and saw that there are three tempo IDT Audio driver that are compatible with windows 10. They are all IDT Audio driver version 6.10.6504.0 and they are made in 2015. I downloaded all the drivers of three and tested. The first two of them does not solve my problem but the last which is "Tempo driver update for codec IDT high-definition" made in 08/05/2015 with 13.1 MB did the job. I must mention that you need to install this driver on generic windows sound driver for good results. If you install hp IDT drivers probably do not get good results. After installing this driver now I am able to switch between outputs audio (headphones and loudspeakers). The driver can detect my headset exactly as what it is. He shows me an output until I plug in my headphones and it then adds another exit in the helmet. I put my headphones or internal speakers as default playback device which I couldn't do with other drivers. There are just two problems that does not matter much to me, and I can't ignore them. The first is the light of the button mute on the keyboard does not work with this driver which is not very important, and the second is that there is no Equalization of beats in this driver and instead there is an audio driver IDT, which is very similar to the equalizer, but it beats not affect only the internal speakers the headphones that is more important to me because the sound via the headphones is very clear and good. If there was some ablity to HP to change this driver and add audio beats and allow also the light on the button mute then it would be perfect. The link for this driver is here:

  Driver IDT tempo for windows 10 and put on subsequent day

  Just download the latest driver with 13.1 MB size and enjoy.

  However, I am unable to Al of Windows 8 to 8.1 Windows I'm not all the drivers installed.

  For some reason, I am unable to install the driver of HP wireless button. Whenever I try to download through Windows Update in Control Panel, it downloads and after installation displays an error code 80070436.

  I am unable to get this driver installed and therefore cannot be updated to Windows 8.1. I tried to update to 8.1 without the driver, but my laptop is restarted it got stuck at 82%.

  I would be grateful if someone could give me some advice or help get this sort I seem to keep hitting a brick wall.

  Thank you very much

  You are the very welcome.

  You will be able to install W10 directly without the need to spend any other OS.

  I did it several times already, so I know it works.

  Twice on nine discs in a solid state on laptops that had previously been W10 on the old mechanical hard disks.

• ENVY of HP dv7 7230us repair - HELP!

  Hello

  I am trying to replace my screen and processor, motherboard and having all kinds of problems. First my camera fell. During the re-booting I noticed the screen turned white, but the cooling fan has been executed and the charging light was still on. I also noticed that the cover lock blinking continuously and the wifi was on but orange. Since she was an ssd that I couldn't tell if the drive worked except the small led on the side front right was on. I then shut the machine down, not connected the power adapter, took out battery and not connected to the RTC battery. Then, I pressed the power button down for 30 seconds to erase all stored tension. I then reconnected the battery RTC, the AC adapter and the battery. After re-booting, the screen turn black. The caps lock blinking continuously and the wifi was on but orange. Essentially the description above. I bought a new view compatible, used ENVY dv7 7000 series motherboard and a processor AMD A10. The original processor was an A8. I then reinstalled everything and even put the hard drive installed in the factory, Toshiba 750 g, I got the same results as before. This time, I could actually hear spinning drive. If everything worked. I even tested the ram original in another machine and found it was good. I also plugged in a monitor and nothing. I am at a loss. I'm trying to send the Commission in Exchange for another. Anyone know what is happening here? I missed something? Would appreciate any input. Thank you

  Al Hebert

  In addition, the original processor, AMD A8-4500 Series, has 2 functions? CPU and GPU or is it just a GPU or CPU. I do not understand how it differs from the older processors.   Thanks again

  The relocation of the CROWD?  I'm sorry what is a MOB. Yes, I remove the RTC battery. I tried to start it with and without the RTC.

• ENVY of HP dv7-7230us: HP DV7 disc includes six partitions - are they all necessary?

  Hi there @infohack

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, so many other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff.

  I can certainly understand your concern about this mix of partitions, and I am happy to help you with this.

  As a first step, this page: partitioning and naming of readers (Windows 8)

  There is also this post of @Daniel_Potyrala , even if reference is made to windows 7, it is loaded with useful information that applies to windows 8 as well. Its theme is more on the preparation of another drive with partitions, but this part of the update, there is information on the purpose of most of the partitions that you ask the subject.

  How to repartition the disk HARD of HP notebook with pre-installed Windows 7

  Since some of the partitions you listed are not labeled, it is difficult to tell what some of them are, but in a UEFI environment, it is possible one of those is a part of this environment. The recovery partition would have your plant to install the image. I would recommend you do a CD set of recovery as well via the recovery manager. You can make only one series.

  I hope this helps a little.

  When I'm on the HP Recovery Manager screen I want to do a factory restore, but it says (disabled: recovery Partition is removed) but when I check the partitions on my laptop, there is a partition that says RECOVERY (D and Local disc (C.)) How can I do a factory restore?

  Ok. Sorry to hear that you did not have serial or usb disk recovery recovery media.

  This means that, unfortunately, in your case, than to buy a set of HP or send to drive hard reimage is your less expensive options.

  It would be wise to buy a set of recovery disks or to ask if an instant multimedia usb HP rcovery disc is available for your laptop.  At least this way, you would be not dependent on any other repair of your PC. You could do it yourself after reading a tutorial or watch a video on using the recovery media.

• Envy DV7 HP: HP DV7 Envy your PC need to be repaired a required device is not connected

  I have 10 Windows on my HP DV7 envy.  When I turn it on I get the error "Your PC need to be repaired a necessary device is not connected."

  None of the keys work, which means I can't select startup options or select System Restore.  It just brings back me to the blue screen with the error message. So I can not try all options, I found on the internet that are made not boot master book or disable secure boot record.

  I ran the tests of memory and fast disk, as someone else suggested that memory may be bad.

  (HP please don't answer back Windows 10 is not supported.)  Microsoft has given to all customers of Windows 8. Besides it is not at all compared to the question, since the system cannot not even load the operating system.)

  I fixed that basically like this:

  1. safe mode in the bios
  2. change the boot order to put USB in the front
  3. Install Ubuntu from USB, so erase Windows

  I got stuck because I had copied the Ubuntu ISO was not a complete file.

  No doubt I could able recover if I asked HP ship me a replacement disc for Windows 8.1

  Also, I learned that you press f8, f9, f10 or f11 when you turn on the computer.  You must wait until the screen goes to sleep again and repower the computer to switch to another option.  Now key people will work until you do this.
