G56-106SA

Hi people.

Firstly, apologies if this is in the wrong place, I thought 'Notebook Hardware', but it * is * a question of upgrading, so I put it here.

My son gave me his "Old" GS56-106SA, running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - Bit and I installed 8 GB of RAM (maximum) which has been recognized and works perfectly.

However, now that I have all this memory, I'd * really * wants to increase the amount allocated for the on-board «video» I had a look in the BIOS and I don't see anything there that looks promising.

Thus, (1) is it possible? and (2) if "Yes" How can I go about it?

Any help would be much appreciated - thank you very much for your attention.

Derek.

Hi, Derek:

No, the allocation of memory is defined by the BIOS and the operating system and cannot be reassigned or changed somehow.

    Hello:

    You tried to access the recovery from the repair CD image you did and it did not work?

    If you can not get anything to work, then I of workaround that you can use to get W7 back there.

    If you let just install without delete and format the drive when Windows installs, it will create a windows.old folder and you can get the files from your mother from the windows.old folder.  Also in the windows.old folder, there should be a SWSetup folder. That the folder contains the major part of the program and the installation files of the driver that came with the PC.  Copy this folder off the coast for more security and use it to reinstall all the programs supplied with the PC that you want to get back out there.

    Here is the workaround...

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • laptop connected hp g56 to toshiba regza tv but no sound... Help, please! : )

    Hi, I am looking to connect my laptop g56 to my tosiba tv regza.

    I managed to get the fine photo using a vga cable but with no sound. After a bit of research and asking questions, I was told to do a plug to rca (red and white) cable, connect the plug to my laptop headphone plug and the rca to the corresponding ports of the TV. Done that and there is still no sound coming out of the tv!

    What I need to download a special driver or something to make the sound go out the TV or is it better to go buy a hdmi cable?

    Any advice would be really appreciated!

    Hello

    A VGA output is only able to carry a video signal - I strongly suggest that you forget about yourself and get an HDMI cable to connect to your TV.  There is no need to buy a high-end cable, just a stanadard HDMI cable is very well - I never found no difference in the quality of output.

  • HP G56 Notebook: Replacement hard drive on a laptop G56

    The hard drive on my G56 died. "No HDD found", said currently, a 500 GB Sata 2. Can I put a 1 disc? There are a lot online that claim to work with this laptop. They are not formatted, and I know I have to buy windows again, but will I need to install the HP software also? In the affirmative. where can I find it?

    Thank you Gary

    You can put in a 1 TB drive. I recommend a model at 7200 RPM, something like this:

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16822145875

    Actually, you do not need to buy Windows again. Your laptop has an OEM license. Can you still read the key Code label inside the battery bay or at the bottom of the laptop?

    HP system software or drivers and utilities can be downloaded from this page. You may have the original recovery disks that the laptop has asked you to do when you first pulled it upward? If this is not the case, these discs can be ordered from HP, for much less than new windows.

    Please respond so we can provide additional assistance. Do you need directions or a video to replace the hard drive?

    Hi, I have a laptop HP G56 that my father-in-law told me because he found that he was not keen on computers after all.

    However, I am trying to download a trial version of Adobe Illustrator CS6 from Adobe and I am forced to use the Adobe Download Manager.

    It will not install as it keeps giving me the error message that administrator privileges are required. I don't understand how this happens as my user account is permanently set as an administrator.

    Any ideas please? I really need this trial version to get up to speed on the software I'm starting a new job using a little more than a week. I had it installed on my Dell laptop, but the hard drive dead ideally lose my downloadable test after a day.

    How to get bluetooth on my computer hp laptop G56

    Unfortunately, after looking for HP Support and drivers; I found 11 products part of the major HP G56 series - however after viewing each of them - all models had drivers for Windows 7. and some even had for Windows XP - BUT there is no Windows Vista drivers for one of the 11 models.

    However, Windows Vista is a bit like Windows 7; and although I've never tested Windows 7 drivers MAY work correctly for Windows Vista.

    Download Windows 7 Bluetooth drivers and try to install.
