HP Envy 15 j151sa: HP Envy 15 does boot from external dvd rom

Hi all

My HP Envy is new (Envy 15 j151sa). The external DVD drive is new (HP dvd600). My envy model does not have an internal CD/DVD drive

I want to boot from a live DVD.

I have read the other messages and answers for similar queries and followed the suggestion.

At startup, press F10 (BIOS Setup) and Boot Options parameters are the following...

(a) secure boot - off

(b) legacy - allowed boot.

(c) changed the boot order inherited from have the rom USB dvd as the first in the list.

Save the configuration.

Restart the PC.

At startup, press F9

Lists the available devices (3) to boot from as

OS boot manager

Boot from EFI file

Portable hard drive

There is No option to select the external CD drive to DVD.

I updated the BIOS to the HP latest version recommended.

I don't know what else to try.

I could really use some help now.

Thank you

Your external DVD drive is operatying as it should.

The best place to find an answer on how to make the live CD is the Debian forum. Disk made you apparentlydoes is not not a MBR boot sector or a recognized EFI partition. Either of the people is what is necessary for the drive to be bootable and your notebook BIOS must be configured in accordance with the choice of the type of format.

Personally I've always preferred to use a utility likeUNetbootln to make several versions of Linux "live" bootable.

I don't bother with the hassle of the DVD or CD media more.

If you have a spare drive 32 or 64 GB USB flash drive, so you can put an incredible number of versions of Linux and troubleshooting utilities on it.

The economy of scale with usb flashdrive has gotten to the point where a 16 GB usb key is less expensive than recordable DVD media. Check outthe Newegg price.

  • Envy Touchsmart Ultrabook - boot from Usb Flash or optical drive

    I just this envy Touchsmart Ultrabook (14 inches) with 8 win and it works very well, but one thing that I can't make it work is to be able to boot from a USB stick or a cd usb player.  This system doesn't have a built-in optical drive.

    I changed the configuration Bios Boot UEFI for Legacy and also re arranged the boot order so the USB drives are before the internal hard drive.  I also tried to change setting USB 3 auto... still not able to boot from a usb device.

    Both the usb flash drive and cd drive to boot on my HP desktop and I recently tried the usb flash drive on a new laptop Lenovo comes with Win 8 and it worked.

    I need to do so that I could run my backup - Acronis True Image software.

    Any suggestions on what then try?  Thank you.

    Yours is a laptop very different mine - so this may not apply... but you can try what I posted here: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-Notebook-PC-Questions/bios/m-p/2260991

  • Portege M200 - the keyboard does not work and I can't boot from CD/DVD

    Hello

    I recently tried to install VM Player on my Toshiba M200. When I restarted my computer, I found that my network connections did not work. I tried to uninstall the reader of the VM, but it failed to halfway. As the program has created a number of virtual network connections which I couldn't remove, I went into the registry and remove the 20 entries or while I thought when linked.

    I rebooted and found my keyboard HID devices and Wireless does not. So I started using the ketyboard softward to try to resolve the problem. I was able to reboot and login using the software keyboard until I did a restore to the last parameter of normal startup. How, rather than get my login window, I get a message asking me to press Ctrl-Alt-Delete. When I do using the software keyboard I get another window saying due to security, I have to press key instead of Ctrl-Alt-Delete Windows security. When I press the button on the key of Windows security on the lower side right of the screen, nothing happens.

    What I can do. I have also tried to attach a USB CD drive (Philips) but can't get the laptop to boot from it. I get an error message (so I had to research readers of CD boot) saying the laptop can not find the drive. The CD comes on during startup, but only for a second.

    I'm desperate so please let me know what options I have or what I can do about it. The physical keyboard works during startup until the first Windows startup screen appears. No NumLock or such work at the time when I get to the login screen.

    Thanks in advance for one advise you can provide.

    Hello

    A long history on your question... I think the reason for this is why you deleted some registry keys. If you delete something in the registry of Windows, you really know what you're doing. You may damage the entire Windows system!
    So I think that's the reason why the keyboard doesn t more.

    In the manual, I founded the CD-ROM boot option is available with the optical disk option.
    So for me it sounds like that your CD USB drive is not compatible with the laptop

  • Stor.e TV + does not recognize external DVD

    Hello!

    I connect an external DVD / Blu - ray with a USB cable player (as suggested by the manual), but when I go to the icon of the DVD, I get the message "no changer". I plug in a Phillips bluray that seems pretty standard... Anyone who has faced this problem before or can give advice?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    You are right
    The Stor.E + can be connected to the external CD/DVD drive with a USB cable.
    To do this you must select DVD auto play option and need to fix on IT.
    Did you do that?

    Connect the DVD player via the USB cable to Stor.E TV +.
    Select setup-> system-> AutoPlay dvd and active automatic DVD playback
    Then select external DVD option in the main interface of the Store TV +.

    If this does not work, I recommend you to test the Store TV + as part of another drive to CD/DVD, but to my knowledge, there is no particular standard (of course USB 2.0 should be supported) which would be necessary

  • Windows Media Player does not recognize external DVD drive - so how do you watch a movie DVD?

    I just connected an external DVD - RW drive in my ultrabook of Windows 8 for the first time.  The ultrabook recognizes the drive and the dvd movie which are, but Windows Media Player only - only says: "connect a device".   The resolution of the issues said that the drive works properly.  I can't copy this movie at the video store, because it's a borrowed DVD.  So, how do WMP to recognize the DVD drive and play the movie?

    DVD playback is possible in 8 Pro windows media center. Player Windows Media 8 has no native codecs DVD added to it. You have the option to purchase an update for your Windows 8, which is Media Center Pack to allow playback of DVDs on your computer.

  • HP Envy 750-287C: Support from HP because will not help me - perhaps someone here will be...

    Very recently, I bought this product to replace my HP slimline s5310f aging.  The new system has the 6th gen CPU core i7-6700 8 and 16 GB of RAM.  My old one has a core 2 CPU and 8 GB of RAM, so I thought the news would be incredibly faster.

    The new came with 10 Windows installed, but that was fine because I had been running Windows 10 for a year on the former with some success.  But much to my surprise a new ran and runs like a snail in Alaska in winter.  We are talking about by clicking on the icon of the Explorer files and easily 10-15 SECONDS to get the first screen waiting.  And everything I tried was the same.   Very shortly after the setting of this system in place M$ released their update of the birthday that I applied.  If something he ran even more slowly.  Because I don't fo programming life I was forced to continue to use my old HP for my projects while reseaching still the slow pace of the new.  Research has shown that M$ has many complaints of slowness, and last week, they release an "emergency solution" to supposedly fix it.   Again, nothing improved.   So my only option is / was to install Windows 7 my DVD of Windows 7 Ultimate x 64.   I changed my UEFI for heritage to support booting from a DVD and restart.  I gives me the option to boot from the DVD and Windows 7 Setup begins.  And the very first prompt that appears is the license agreement (EULA) end-user MUST verify and click NEXT to continue.  But wait!  My USB keyboard and mouse DO NOT WORK!   Research shows that the DVD of Windows 7 does not have drivers that are compatible with the new system of Sky (something).  So I can't continue.  In fact, the only option available is to physically cut the machine.   Get the picture?

    So, I hope that someone can be aware of how you may be able to fix it or work around the issue in a practical way (I could customize my own DVD of Windows, but it isn't really practical).

    I'be so very interested to see if anyone can help.

    Thanks for reading and honestly I don't expect all the practical answers.  And if I do I will be extremely grateful.

    Hello:

    The problem is that your W7 DVD does not have USB3 required drivers for the keyboard and the mouse works.

    Who would not have been a problem if your PC has PS/2 ports that you might have used.

    The other problem is that the skylake chipset does not support USB2 until the drivers for the chipset are installed, then connect the KB and mouse in one of the usb ports 2 is not an option.

    However, Intel has this utility that you can use to insert drivers into a USB flash drive, you'll need to do your W7 DVD.

    There is a readme file on the link below which will give you the steps you need to install W7 on this model of PC.

    This utility must be run on a PC with W8.1 or W10, then I hope that you can do on your current PC because there W10.

  • Satellite A200 - 23P - mechanic of DVD - rom does not

    I'm sorry for my English in advance this topic! -Thank you

    I have a very big problem with my engraver of DVD (RM).
    I bought SAT A200 - 23P three weeks ago.
    The Win VISTA operating system has been installed. DVD - rom worked well.

    If I have installed Win XP to the second partition on my HARD drive (to install the disk with driver for sata drive in nlite) and installed all the drivers and utilities for Toshiba laptop, I found that my DVD-rom is not working while I press eject button.

    Mechanic of DVD is not responding to eject in XP and not even in the BIOS!
    It is interesting, mechanic DVD is the detection in BIOS, detects in XP, XP operating system votes - mechanic to the DVD works properly - its fable.

    However, if I have installed XP on the second partition, Win Vista does not load :(
    I don't have a second chance for second selection (Vista and XP).
    I now have XP only, even if Vista is on the first partition - I didn't delete it.

    Do you think that the DVD-rom is HW or SW problem?
    I think that, given that the DVD-rom does not in the BIOS - HW error.

    But is very strange, if I install XP from mechanic to the DVD and then close is, DVD - rom does not...:)

    If I manually open and insert the CD, the DVD does not (diode led no blink, just if I turn off the computer, led blinked once).

    PLS help me someone-

    Thank you!

    Hi Michal

    Your question is very strange, I mean the number of CD/DVD drive

    The fact is that the readers of CD/DVD eject function functions should any operating system has been installed on your laptop. It has nothing to do with your software on the HARD drive.

    So I wonder why the eject button works with Vista and not XP preinstalled OS?  :|

    My only plausible explanation is that sometimes there is a bad connection between the laptop and the drive. However the problem could be related to the hardware problem too

    As you see it s not easy to say what's wrong exactly, we can only speculate.

    Now some details about your installation of OS double.

    You cannot choose between Windows XP and Vista because Vista boot manager was obliterated during the installation of Win XP.
    This happened to me also. I installed Win XP on my Satellite and could not start Vista.

    The solution was simple; I used another original DVD of Vista (from my friend) and booted from this DVD. Vista has renewed the Boot Manager, and then I was able to boot Vista.

    Then I downloaded the tool called Easy BCD.
    This tool can change the Vista Boot Manager settings. I've edited and inserted a new Windwos XP OS entry.

    That s it!

  • H8XT does not start a DVD player

    I recently bought a H8XT and I want to do a clean install of windows 7.  The DVD drive seems to work very well and I used it to create the recovery discs already.  However, when I try to boot from the DVD drive, the boot in the bios menu does not show the DVD player.  I t shows a generic drive called "ATAPI CD/DVD Drive.  Even when I try to choose that it does not start on the DVD, it always starts on the hard drive.  I have this research group and found a position with a similar problem to mine.  Here it is:

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/desktop-operating-systems/computer-won-t-boot-to-install-Windows-7-full...

    The solution for this post was to clear the CMOS.  However, my motherboard is not exactly like the one shown in this post, and I can't figure out how to clear the CMOS memory.  In the 'Clear the CMOS' link in figure 4, it shows 2 jumpers on the right side of the 6-pin.   In my system, 2 riders are on the left side 6 pins.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

    Thanks for the suggestions.   It turns out that when I burned an image of windows 7 on DVD, it does not burn properly and is not bootable.

  • Vista Home Premiun Device Manager does not display my CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive

    I recently tried to use my CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive and it did not work. It was working fine a few days previously but now... Nothing.

    My first reaction was to open Windows Explorer, expand and look at computer. There was my C drive and the recovery Partition but no Opitical drive more.
    Then I opened the Device Manager and saw that the CD was registered it is more as well?

    My question is

    Vista automatically removes the CD-ROM drive in the list of Device Manager if there is a problem with the drive itself?

    Or is there something that happened this suppression the CD-ROM in Device Manager list and it is not a problem with the drive itself?

    I had a disc go bad before on a PC running Windows 98 and 2000, but the disc stayed in the Manager list but I'm pretty new to Vista and know things are very different. So before we get in panic Mode, I thought that it would be a good idea to ask where someone will know probably for sure.

    Thanks in advance for clues

    Hello

    1st try a restore of the system if you have a point of return before it happened.

    How to make a Vista system restore
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/76905-System-Restore-how.html

    -----------------------------------

    If no joy:

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    This will refresh the default driver stack.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
    slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.
