HP Envy 17 t-j100 Notebook PC - HP BIOS upgrade Assistant. PC will not boot to the top.

After reading the various posts, I solved the problem.  I disconnected the power and removed the battery.  I then reinsert the battery connected the power cord and press the power button.  Update the BIOS 'recovered', continued, and the system finally started.  I was able to enter my password and the system works normally now.  I'm not a computer expert, so this experience was really scary.  I hope that my solution helps someone else.

McTavish2012,

Support from your computer - a LOT of good information here pages: manuals, drivers (there is more that you need - compare with what you see in the control panel > display icon > Device Manager), troubleshooting...

all kinds of "stuff".

You must select your exact model and there you go!

Series of Quad Edition Notebook PC HP ENVY 17-j100

I have my Windows as well updates the value of Notify - this way, I get to decide when I want to actually install the updates.  Just a personal whim.    I always create my own restore Points before making changes, too. the computer should do, of course, but I learned to do this on my own.  You can do it whenever you like - just give it a name and it will be there when you want later.  Don't get carried away, though - just so many of them and they take a little space.

  • 15-ab271sa Pavilion: Pavilion Notebook 15-ab271sa occasionally won't boot to the top

    Hello

    I recently bought this new laptop and have problems with it sometimes does not start windows.

    I see on the HP website there is an update of the BIOS for this machine which apparently addresses the problem that I am experiencing, but I'm confused because my current BIOS Version is not displayed in the list of previous versions of the software in the BIOS and when I run the softtware Assistant support installed on the machine there is no mention of an update of the BIOS.

    Either way, I did all the recommended software updates by using the help Wizard, but when I look at available updates on the Web Site for my machine there are numerous others proposed.  In addition, some updates are repeated as Rev A and Rev B, and I don't know what that means.  In addition, because there are updates for the other elements of software for different brands of hardware, I expected only these updates appear in the Support Assistant that relate to my particular machine.

    I would like any advice or comments on this situation before proceeding further.

  • Pavilion g7-1167dx Notebook PC will not boot

    I have a HP Pavilion g7-1167dx Notebook PC running Windows 7 Home Premium.  When I turn it on, the LED only lights are LEDs of power (on the power switch and side) and the network LED on the F12 key.  I am not able to enter the diagnostics of material via the F2 key.  The fan is operating normally. It had been produced intermittently before (during the last two weeks), but I wanted to just wait awhile and it would eventually start again.  When he finally is never returned, I disassembled carefully, according to the maintenance and care, guide (on an ESD protection adequate workstation) and gave it a good cleaning.  It was very dusty inside.  Unfortunately when I reassembled it, it still does not work.  The computer is a little more than two years.  -In addition, there was never any display error or other indications of problems. Product number: LW414UA #ABA

    I sent the motherboard to repair parts of computer out of Miami, Florida and they fixed it and returned.  I was told it was the video chip.  They charged $70.00.  With each shipment way I got it fixed for $90.00.   Hallelujah!  With their setting of the original motherboard, I didn't have to worry about problems of CMOS and "tattoeing" a new motherboard, which would have cost a lot more.

  • HP ENVY M6-1105dx - won't boot to the top

    I had a HP ENVY M6 - A10 (1105dx) a year ago. The Laptopn worked well... I did not use for about a month I was away and when I put on there no start but a CAPS light kept flashing twice.so I did a recovery of BIOS by pressing Windows key + B and pressing the power button...

    A week after the same problem... but this time when I go to the BIOS recovery... the machine does not start, but the CAPS LED begins to blikn once...

    I'm a little helpless as to what to do with this...

    Appreciate the Heads up on the people of this problem... !

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello Vish_hp,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I see that you are unable to boot up your laptop.

    Bad news, if the Caps Lock flashes once, it is a failure of the CPU. Two flashes is a failure of the corruption of the BIOS, so you that dealt appropriately with the BIOS recovery. I see a previous post that you made on a fan failure which is very probably the catalyst to the problem.

    Take a look at this document for more information on startup with flashing lights problems: computer does not start and the lights blink or computer beeps.

    Sorry for the bad news.

  • ENVY 4520: printer will not connect to the wireless network

    with wireless on Printer Setup Wizard, printer detects the network but when I enter the key to encryption (correctly), he comes back with a message "Unable to connect to the network".  The printed report suggests the address filtering MAC can be activated.  But I checked and it is specifically DISABLED.    The printed report indicates a FAILURE on "no filtering."

    Please notify.

    After struggling with this for two days and after the announcement of this question and all by downloading the HP doctor, I noticed that the printer had suddenly cured himself. I'm not sure what I should credit this miraculous healing. Thank you I guess?

  • HP250 G3 Notebook: network will not work after the upgrade to Windows 10

    Hello

    Someone was able to get their network works after upgrade to Windows 10 for their portable HP250 G3?

    I think I have a driver problem. The message I get is along the lines of "impossible to link to network protocols. There is also an "unknown" device in Device Manager. Comparison with Windows 7 Device Manager, I can't understand what it could be.

    Of all drivers not not to work, the network is one of the most important that you can not use the Internet to debug the problem. I have uninstall Windows 10 and Windows 7 troubleshooting. (such a pain)

    So far, I tried to download all the drivers of network you're interested in that I can find on the web, as well as the Bluetooth drivers. I reload once 10 Windows installed and hope for the best. They got the right driver for the wireless network (which works only default with Windows 10 I might add) work, but I think it might be a controller driver that is still missing.

    I found a few sites that have suggested to the registry of hacking. I tried that too, but without success.

    If someone hacked into the problem, I would be happy to help.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your concern, and I would like to try the drivers from the following link---

    It didn't help not then write us back with the network card, you can get to the screen of the Device Manager under network adapters, as if from here so we can try searching the drivers from the manufacturer of netwrok card.

  • HP TouchSmart Ultrabook 4 ENVY: fried, drive will NOT boot from usb

    Hard drive clicking on, definitely fried. Replaced by the new hard drive. No matter what I do, it will not start from the

    bootable USB key with windows 8 install on it.  Stick to boots on other computers.

    I press ESC to the maximum power that I can get the boot menu, F1 works great, F2 works very well.  If I select F9 for boot options, for bios F10 or F11 to restore it goes back to the found boot device, hard drive (3F0) asks me to press F2 for the diagnosis of sys, the screen flashes. will not change.  No matter what I try, I'm stuck in this endless loop.

    How can I put an operating system on this device?

    Model # c2k82ua #abl

    Nothing I've tried has worked. However, I have finally managed to make it work has that.  I disconnected the battery for the bios for a bit. After that, I could get in the bios setup. Still would not start from a good bootable USB then I activated the Legacy and set the boot order to boot from an external USB Cdrom. Reinstalled windows 8 and all is good now thanks for all the comments!

  • Compaq Presario V6310US Notebook PC does not start at the top.

    This laptop was bought new on 11 May 2007.  This problem started about a month ago.  The monitor would be just off then go back to normal, until one day it just wouldn't start.  Lights along the top of the computer will be light, stay on for a while and then turns off and the monitor remains blank.  This happens again and again until I just turn it off.  My husband took the computer to a repairman who said it is a hardware problem, but he had no idea what.

    I don't know if I have included all relevant information, and if not, I'll be happy to add anything that might be useful.

  • Quad Edition CTO Notebook HP ENVY 15 t-j100 fan noise

    I recently bought a HP ENVY 15 t-j100 Quad CTO Notebook Windows 7 Professional Edition (PC product #: E1P05AV) and I noticed that when the laptop is under any kind of load, the fan can be incredibly strong. There is no abnormal noise, but the volume itself can be irritating. Basically, it looks like a dryer located on the top. I was wondering if it was just a normal phenomenon or if there was something more to him. I have the latest version of the downloaded bios, and there should not be any dust or dirt in the book since I just got. If someone could shed some light on this, I would gratefully.

    Hello

    Thank you for visiting the forum!

    I understand that whenever there is any kind of load your system fan noise, it's usually an overheating problem that I suspect.
    I really recommend that you quickly go through the following documents & try to do at home and hopefully solve the problem.
