G6 - 1191ev: HP Pavilion g6 - 1191ev

Hello everyone and thanks for the help with this forum,.

I am owner of a g6 Pavilion - 1191ev.  About two days ago, I was working on my laptop and suddenly it crashed it upward, frozen screen and it started beeping out of control, so I pressed the power button turned off, after waiting until 10 seconds it could possibly release. Later, I tried to turn it on again the phone but the Windows 7 to my laptop would not be responsible. A screen that says that perhaps a change on the material from the laptop or failure generally happened initially appears on the screen.

In addition, there are always two options: the first option (which is presented as the recommended) is to have the blackout which took place has been fixed by windows, but when I choose this option, windows is loaded up to a point, a screen lights up, it says on a black screen: "REM could not perform the screening because could not detect 2 hard drives on this system.

However, the second option suggests a normal load of Windows 7, as usual and this time loading led again in the first screen that appears with two options.

After a bit of research on the forum, I decided to run the "main hard drive than self test" on the configuration of the BIOS, and a mistake "305" appeared on the screen. I also ran the "memory test", which was adopted with success. When I select 'system recovery' on the menu of the BIOS Setup, then the same screen appears, like the screen which appears after the first choice of the option, with "2 hard drives.

So I guess, I have to change my hard drive no doubt, but I'd like to take your opinion too.

Is there something else I could sort to do before paying money for the new hard drive?

Also, in the event that unfortunately, I have to buy a new hard drive, on what must I pay attention when I'm about to buy the new hard drive? I noticed on some posts on the forum, some say that the new hard disk must be equal at least ability with the previous, but not below.

Also what type of a new hard drive do I need? And what are the parameters I should do after placing the new hard drive in the laptop, in order to get my phone working again? Should I buy something else than the drive?

I realized that the process of replacing the hard drive of my laptop is relatively simple. Is this fair?

Following are the features of my laptop:

purchase country: Greece

installed processor type: Intel

(As noted above) OS: Windows 7

Unfortunately my laptop is out of warranty HP since the October of 2011.

Thanks again for any help provided in advance!

Would be happy to hear your opinion about my problem!

Hello

The error code that you mention - 305 is a scalable disk Self Test (DST) failure - would indicate that you need to replace the hard drive and this is also compatible with the startup problem you describe.

Regarding replace HARD drive, you are not limited to any particular drive manufacturer, but the recovery media allows you to reinstall the operating system on the new drive probably will not work on a drive that is lower in quality than the original - a bit larger is fine.  ( Note: this restriction does not apply if you choose the 2nd option of installation described below).

Your laptop is listed as coming with a 640 GB hard drive, but as there is no real difference in cost, you can replace with a 750 GB HARD drive and get a little bit of space - the player on the following link is an example that would be perfect for your laptop.

750 GB hard drive.

The procedure to replace the hard drive starts on Page 54 of your & Maintenance Guide.

*********************************************************************

Regarding the reinstallation of the operating system on the new HARD drive, there are two options available.

  1. You can order a set of replacement recovery disks using the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  They will also recreate all of the original scores, including the recovery Partition.

Order HP recovery disks.

2. Another option, you might consider is to create your own Windows 7 installation disc.

Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

An example of a COA label can be seen here.

You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the Disk Image correct ( this must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - it is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn ( Note: you can deselect additional software during installation of ImgBurn offerings) to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  The source of the Windows Image is Digital River.

Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

    6 - cell Li - lon, 2.55 Ah, 55 Wh 593554-001

    It is a MU06 battery, which is probably the most common laptop battery there are:

    You want to be sure to get a real HP battery. Many of the batteries sold there are 'compatible' (I call them 'knock-off') batteries and they can be very good, but they have a superior instance to be bad out of the box. They are much less expensive, however, and in the right setting on a laptop used where count pennies, I'll use them.

  • HP Pavilion g6 - 1191ev: replacement keyboard

    Hello everyone and thanks for your support in advance.

    I am owner of a g6 Pavilion - 1191ev. After about 4 years of use my laptop, it's normal I think, that sort of damage was caused to the keyboard of the laptop. I mean, taking off and reposition the touch of the keyboard, in order to clean beneath them with a jet of air, that unfortunately I broke three of the keys on my keyboard. It scared me to remove the others too, it was quite difficult to clean my laptop keyboard now. Therefore, I have to replace it with another keyboard.

    After doing the replacement request, ask a technician, he told me that I would be able to buy a new keyboard to ebay.com, and it would cost me about $ 40 (not including shipping costs). Then I could be replaced by him.  In this context, I was wondering if it would be easy to replace by myself, at least do not have to pay for the replacement, because the cost of the keyboard is already high. Could you please guide me to replace the keyboard? There is no indication in the manual guide of the laptop that would help me to replace?

    In addition, do you think it is rather a simple or a complicated process which should not be performed by a single user, but by an experienced technician? I ask because I would not cause 'collateral damage' to my laptop, trying to replace the keyboard.

    Finally, I would like to know, what should I be careful when ordering a new keyboard on the internet. By that I mean, how would I find what is good keyboard for my laptop, and what would be suggested for this price.

    Thanks a lot for your help.

  • iTunes does not recognize my iPhone on my HP Pavilion Windows 10 5s, so cannot sync the phone, which has the latest operating system running

    iTunes does not recognize my iPhone on my HP Pavilion Windows 10 5s, so cannot sync the phone running. I downloaded the latest OS for the phone and the latest version of iTunes on my PC and have tried all USB ports several times. I also reinstalled drivers USB to the PC.  The phone is recognized on the computer of a friend under Win 7. All shows when I plug it on mine is a page showing the 'Apple iPhone' folder display of storage internal (2.18 GB free of 14.7 GB). Troubleshooting in devices and printers, where the phone displays as "Not specified Apple iPhone" generates a message saying that "Apple iPhone is an older USB device and may not work with USB 3.0 and plug it into a USB 2.0 port." But when I use USB 2.0 (I tried several times using each of the three USB ports on my PC), troubleshooting the error message says "Apple iPhone won't work correctly with USB 3.0." This seems to be a recent problem, since in March 2016, I could spend a few songs from my PC to my phone using iTunes.

    I wish I had some ideas of people who have experienced this problem, I find to be a more frustrating one.

    Well, you aren't the only one. This just freakin happened to me. I spent the last three hours with apple and Windows supports. Now I'm reinstalling Windows 10 by last resort of Windows support councils. I got the same message USB. In iTunes, under devices something removed my 5s and the iPad. But it remains 6 s wife. I tried my computers 2-(SS) 3.0 ports and 1 port 2.0 ordinary. I tried all four thinners cables I have. I will let you know the result of the Windows reinstall.

I ran a diagnosis, saying that the wireless network adapter and the wired network adapter does not work. I tried to update the drivers, but to no avail.

  • Pavilion dv8: problem with Pavilion dv8 (treble/bass control) Windows 10

    I had my Pavilion dv8 for awhile.  I started having problems with the slider treble/bass control. He would sporadically pop-up and begin to change the treble or bass at irregular intervals. He also unplug randomly my wireless connection. I tried to solve the problem by downloading a driver, but the problem remains. At first, it was just a little annoying, fixed by clicking the mouse or pressing the upper button of the internet, but now it of REALLY boring, popping up even as I write this post.

  • HP Pavilion - 15-ab045sa: a few gestures of precision Touchpad not working not

    Hello

    I'm new to the forum, so I hope I posted in the right place.

    My product: HP Pavilion Notebook - 15-ab045sa (ENERGY STAR)

    I have all the gestures of touchpad usual work (three stroke of finger etc).  However, the recent to THE introduced a new gesture to switch virtual desktops. I was really looking forward to this update, but this gesture does not work! I tried to reinstall the update with erase everything and it still does not work!

    I don't understand why it does not work as I have a touchpad of accuracy and all other gestures of work except this new! Also even if some gestures of work (for example three finger swipe), I don't think that win 10 recognizes the touchpad of precision like under settings of the mouse and Trackpad, what it does not say that I have a touchpad of precision and so does me no options to change what are the gestures, as it should.

    I have the Synaptics TouchPad of SMBus 19.2.11.38 driver (21/07/2016).

    Would really appreciate your help as I was really looking forward to the new gesture switch virtual desktops.

    Thank you.

    Just got an update via windows update Synaptics update to version 19.3.11.37 - it finally allowed me to have the film 4 finger to switch virtual desktops!

    If so, I would not update the driver.  Many problems with W10 and IDT audio.

  • Pavilion AMD A8-6500: graphic upgrade

    Hi all

    My son has a HP Pavilion AMD A8-6500 with Radeon HD 3.50 ghz graphics card.

    It now wants to update as graphic says not good enough.

    What our options are, what is implementing implement as buying a better graphics card or is it more complicated?

    see you soon

    Jason

    Hi there @Jason1966,

    That the Forums are with you!  I understand that you are looking for advice on upgrading a graphics card.  I'm happy to help you with this.

    Please report the number of complete product from your computer. Check out the following, if you need assistance with this information. HP desktop PC - how can I find my model number, serial number or product?  Once I got that I can give you more in the way of what to look for.

    In general, you should know what types of expansion slots your computer is available. More recent graphics cards will focus you on PCI Express x 16 slots and their willingness to be a version or the generation of these slots.  If the motherboard has only Gen 1.0, and the graphics card is Gen 3.0, then the card would work, but it will run more slowly he would in a slot of Gen 3.0. So you want to look at the capacity of your computer's power supply. A common value is 300 W. Higher end graphics cards will be a requirement of minimum recommended power of 400 W or more, although there are cards with a lower requirement. It is always better to have a power that exceeds the minimum value. Also related to food some graphics cards require extra power of a specific type connections. You must make sure that your diet has these connections available. Then, make sure that the card has drivers for the operating system installed on your computer, and if the card is UEFI, make sure that your system has UEFI.

    If all these parameters are filled between your system and the card, the graphics card should work, but there is never a guarantee, because each computer system is as an individual, once it's in the hands of a user. You may have already installed another device that is in conflict with this card or perhaps a software which does not get her drivers graphics. So long story short, it is not easier to just buy a better card, you need to do some research.

    I hope this helps clarify the issues for you and if you find it helpful and useful, please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.

  • Pavilion dv7t-4000 laptop: AMD HDMI port on the computer laptop dv7 is lost after free trial Win10 returns to Win7 Home Premium edition

    My laptop was purchased in sept 2010 and runs Win7 Home Premium Edition (64-bit).

    It worked perfectly until June 2016, when the trial version free odious Win10 forced itself on my laptop.  I had no choice, I used Win10 for a day or 2 and then discovered that:

    (1) I lost the audio capability, HDMI port, I use to connect to my TV, and

    (2) the Win10 trial enabled me to return on Win7, I did without delay.

    In my Win 7 restored, everything was fine, except when I have her go in Control Panel to configure / reconfigure HDMI as the default, I couldn't - the element used to appear as "AMD HDMI Audio" is no longer displayed.  I remember a message during the free trial period Win10 that says it has disabled any material incompatible.  Without a doubt, Win10 free trial 'killed' this HDMI/device port, at least audio-wise.

    Today, I always run the same Win7, but I can't have audio HDMI on this port.  When I connect to my TV, the video works.  Win7 Device Manager it shows with an exclamation in yellow, and when I right click to get more details, there is a message saying Microsoft:

    Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might be installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or maybe it's a malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52).

    Is there a way to 'get it '?  'this' is AMD HDMI audio.  (and wthout spoil the graphics - that is, video)

    I tried to install the drivers provided by AMD [graphics] and that did not work. The Internet from AMD website says that the audio drivers are included in the package for graphics drivers.  There is also a huge confusion in the way these low level items are named/described: ATI and AMD, because they have merged, were used somewhat interchangeably.  I also tried the graphics drivers AMD HP Support Web site specific to my laptop and it has only gotten worse.

    Thank you for your kind attention.

    Hi @ RTX,

    Awesome response. I read the details and depth of your post. I understand that the bios is updated. So you could end up with this update.

    Happens to the other updates. This will be the order.

    1. Uninstalling the driver Chipset and resettlement.

    2 reinstalling and uninstalling graphics drivers

    3. uninstall the sound drivers and reinstall.

    Before uninstalling, you can try to update the drivers supplied by device also Manager and if that market that will be great. Please, do it only if you don't have already done.

    Before uninstalling please make sure that you capture an image of the complete Device Manager window. Take some pictures of your cell phone. Please note the exact device for audio and video chipset drivers. Then, you will need to uninstall it from the Device Manager and install from the support site in the above order so that there is no confusion.

    If nothing works as a last resort, you may need to restore complete system to factory settings. Please backup your files before doing so. This is possible since the recovery of your computer's hard drive partition.
