• Desktop HP Envy h8 - 1420t CTO: problem Samsung SSD causing with upgrading 8.0 to 8.1 Windows

  I can't upgrade my OEM installed Windows 8.0 to 8.1 HP desktop computer.  First, I tried the upgrade when 8.1 was deployed for the first.  It seemed to level OK, but after a reboot I found myself with a black screen... no error message, just a black screen.

  I retried it this morning, but this time it failed with DPC_Watchdog_Exception, then Machine_Check_Exception.  After looking in several forums, I'm "guess" it is maybe disk 0, which is a Samsung 830 Series SSD (model: MZ7PC256 / 0:1, s/n: S0U3NSAC705912 p/n: MZ7PC256HAFU - 000: 1) which has been installed and configured by HP, when I ordered this computer from office in 2012.

  Magician of Samsung software does not recognize this SDS supported a product, but they identify it as a Samsung MZ7PC256HAFU - 000: 1, with Firmware version CXM05H1Q.  I thought I'd see if a firmware update is available, but there is no information about this SSD on the Samsung support site. In addition, HP doesn't offer not just any which firmware for this SSD, not even the original firmware.  What I saw on the internet says that it is a custom SSD OEM which is not taken in charge by Samsung.

  I'm not desperate to upgrade to Win8.1, but I would like to know exactly why the canned upgrade fails.  I have an other available SSD (a Samsung 850 Pro, model: MZ-7KE256BW) that I considered to use to replace the current drive 0, but I hate swapping parts without knowing that this is really the problem.

  I am open to advice. The info on my current system follows. Furthermore, I note that there is no conflict of devices or outdate drivers.

  Hello

  Don't forget that the W8 is fully updated before upgrading to W8.1. I would suggest to run for a while after the W8.1 update and see if your PC is stable.  If so, then manually a system restore point and then continue the Windows Update process. If your PC is stable after that Windows updates have been applied then manually take another system restore point and proceed to apply the HP recommended software updates for the W8.1 that are posted for your PC.

• HP ENVY h8 - 1420t CTO: the HP ENVY h8 - 1420t CTO upgrade

  I intend to update my graphics card, memory and power supply bu tI have a few questions. Can I put my HP ENVY h8 - 1420t CTO to a 750 w power supply with damaging them.
  
  Also, I wonder how many pins I have to have for my computer. I can't specifically to locate only with the opening of my computer.

  I have a core i7-3770 if that makes a difference

  Hello

  Use a good adjustment of the power supply replacement.  Standard power SUPPLY HP block dimensions are 5.5 "by 3.4"by 5.9".  Something more will compress the distance between the power supply and the optical drive even more complicated wiring and installation problems.  A 750 watt PSU should work but get one with the appropriate dimensions.  If you drop to the low power of some, the Corsair CS650m would be a very good choice.

  If your computer is running a version of HP 8 BIOS the largest part of the most recent graphics card will work providing that they will hold.  Study it posted article.  You need to open your PC and measurement. Generally of less than 10.5 graphics cards "must adapt.

  Thanks for posting on the forum.

• HP ENVY 700-000z Desktop PC with 8 and the need to know if I can install Windows 7

  Just bought HP ENVY 700-000z Desktop PC equipped with 8 and need to know if I can install Windows 7 on this computer without problem.  My work does not allow the use of Windows 8.  If I can install Windows 7, what version of operating system do I need to buy to do a clean install.

  If I understand correctly, I could order the Windows 8 Pro, who has right to demotion and then install Windows

  7 pro, I have then I should be able to get the drivers, I need HP is correct.

  WARNING *.

  HP does not recommend installing Windows 7 on a computer comes with Windows 8, and it will support the installation of Windows 7. HP doesn't provide drivers for Windows 7 and the appropriate drivers are not available for the hardware in the computer. In addition, Windows 7 can not take in charge some of the hardware or software designed for the computer.

  Make sure you create your media recovery HP or USB Flash Recovery discs before you edit or change anything.

  You should ENABLE 'Secure Boot' and maybe 'Legacy Support' in the 'BIOS Setup boot secured' on the settings page below, before you try to install Windows 7;

  

  or

  

  In addition, as the hard drive is partitioned as TPG, you must start the computer by using the "UEFI - CD/DVD drive" in the start menu "F9". If "UEFI - CD/DVD drive" or something to that effect does not exist in the start menu, please post a screenshot and/or make startup listed options.

  I suggest using Windows 7 SP1 for the best installation experience. If you need Windows SP1, see 'How to install Windows 7 without the disc' to download and create your own. If the DVD does not start as UEFI, you may need to use a USB Flash drive (can ask "Quick start" DISABLING in BIOS) as the installation media. Please download the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool to create a Windows 7 SP1 USB Flash drive.

  Most of the Windows 7 drivers from the drivers of HP Pavilion p7-1299 c desktop PC page should work on your desktop HP ENVY 700 - 000z CTO. Both models use a variant of the motherboard HP Jasmine. If you have missing or unknown devices after installing the drivers, please post the "Hardware ID" Device Manager for devices as shown in the example below.

  

  If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

• HP Envy 700 - xt desktop: How can I stop recovery of training hard and switch to disk system?

  Called Costco to get assistance from the technology with a desktop computer HP Envy. The tech asked me to do a system of hard drive recovery, even if I got recovery discs...

  The computer screen showed 100% software installation of recovery in less than two hours and the machine came into fashion "deactivate the tower."

  Problem: 'Disable lap' mode is still ongoing, and now it has been a full 6 hours and then some.

  Question #1: Can the office be manually stop to stop the process without end 'disable on tour' without harming the computer?

  Question #2: Guidance concerning such a judgment and then redo the system recovery once more, but this time with the recovery discs?

  Theoretically, the hard drive by using Recovery Manager F11 recovery should produce the same results as the set of recovery disks.  The set of recovery disks will probably replace all and then give the factory settings.  The result should be the same, however, I don't see no harm to do so.  What did you do to try to get out if "turn on, turn off"?

  On the thing to try before using the drive set - unplug the PC from the wall.  Press the power button, that would be turning on the PC if connected.  Hold button power in 30 seconds to a minute.  And then reconnect the power cord to back in and try to feed normally upward.

• HP Envy 750-197c Desktop: you can add a SSD internal flash disk to the envy of HP 750-197c Desktop

  You can add an internal SSD to the envy of HP 750 - 197c Desktop that has a 2 TB drive installed?

  DMSIceman, welcome to the forum.

  Yes, you can move the HARD disk and install an SSD.  You will need to buy at least a 128 GB SSD.  Here is the data sheet for the computer.

  The best way to install an SSD is to leave the current HARD drive as it came from the factory.  Connect the SSD drive to another SATA port on the motherboard.  Install the software of Migration data provided by the SSD manufacturer on the HARD drive.  Once installed, open it and follow the instructions carefully.  You choose the SSD as a target.  After the data is transferred from the HDD to the SSD, you can disconnect the HARD drive and start the computer.  It should start on the SSD.  Then, you can disconnect the SSD to the first SATA connector and move to another Bay HARD drive and connect it to another SATA port on the motherboard.  You can use it for storage.

  I like the SSD Samsung EVO.  Samsung offers its data Migration software to clone HARD drive.  In addition, they provide their software Wizard to optimize the performance of the SSD.  You can find all the software at the bottom of the page in the link I provided for the EVO.  The Samsung SSD were good about starting in HP computers without changing the BIOS settings.  You will need to buy an adapter to allow the reader to 2.5 "to fit into a 3.5 Bay".

• HP ENVY 700-349 Desktop PC: can I put this desktop computer graphics card at a 960 GTX?

  I decide to upgrade my videocard to a GTX 960 a GTX 645. My question is if I can spend in the first place (I'm not the most ideal for this kind of situations). The exact specifications of my computer is listed here: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04337197 . The exact information of my video card is shown here: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-960/specifications .

  Please help I'm dying for a response

  Greetings,

  Seems good.

  960 is 9.5 inches in length and requires a power of 400 W.

  Check the clearance in the tower. Measure along the 645 to verify that you can adapt a 9.5 inch to 10-inch card in the case.

  Hard drive cage can be in the way.

  Check that your has a PCIe auxiliary cable as the 960 supply requires six extra pins to connect. The manufacturer will usually provide an adapter if you need. Or you can get one online.

  See you soon!

• HP ENVY 700-029eb desktop PC. Update to Windows not sure 8.1?

  Hello world

  HP ENVY 700-029eb-computer for office
  Model: E3H39EA

  Windows 8

  A question related to the following message on my HP computer:
  -----------------------------
  HP has not tested this PC with Windows 8.1
  For this reason, HP is unable to update providence instructions or Windows 8.1 drivers.
  You can now lose stability and basic functionality if you try to update your system.
  -----------------------------

  A Windows 8.1 update could make the System unstable, so the message of HP.

  But my computer is always busy preparing the update and guard asks me to do the 8.1 update.

  So can I install Windows 8.1 safely on this computer? Or how to turn off the update?

  We appreciate your comments and advice.

  GuyterB1964, welcome to the forum.

  I do not understand these messages.  Here is the download page for software and driver for the computer.  As you can see, all the drivers for win 8.1 are listed.  They would not list them as much as they have not been tested.  I see no reason not to do the update.

• HP ENVY 700-074 Desktop PC: Graphics driver is not up to date

  Hello, I was trying to update my driver of Intel 4600 Graphics for many months now desperately and it did not work. There is currently a problem with my graphics driver (it does not play in one of my pc games, they the accident that I start up) and I was recommended by various people to update my graphics driver. I tried using the Intel Web site to update my driver, but since it has been changed by the manufacturer would not. HP support for my computer for the driver downloads and software did not work, either I get erroer - 259, as the version he tries to download and install a version lower than what I currently have installed (Version 10.18.10.3621). I don't know what to do when I searched hard for a higher version than what I have installed.

• HP Envy Phoenix 810 desktop: Hp Envy Phoenix start loop

  I have a new HP Envy Phoenix Office - 3 weeks. I had the boot loop after the first few days and there are still a few days. Both times, the computer has been re-set to factory conditions. In the meantime, I got the blue screen of death - which was resolved with the support on the website.  Reinstall all the programs is tedious - and tracking down licenses for anti-virus programs that I use etc.

  The latest HP support, stated that the HP updates have now the same as the windows updates - and activate updates. I disabled updates of HP but not windows.

  Support has been nice, but I'm worried that the computer is missing something.  It has a 250 GB SSD - 32 GB of Ram.  I have 3 years warranty at home.

  I asked the technician, if this seems to be a hardware or software problem. No response says.  I had a lot of HP products but never this experience.

  Thank you

• HP ENVY 700-305no desktop PC: Bios update failure.

  Long story short (a little).

  I got a virus, is a virus really means, crypt all my files, prevents the opening of antivirus programs and redirects the downloads.

  virus survives 3 reset factory, 3 hard drive formats, and a reinstall of Windows.

  This leads me to believe that he himself got into the Bios of my computer.

  so I downloaded the latest bios for my system, in this case

  Update the BIOS HP consumer desktop PC (SSID family ROM 2AF3)

  through the Setup program on another computer, I installed the update to the bios of my USB,

  inserted in my main pc, held down the Windows and key B, while starting my computer.

  This led beeps and my computer Wrooms, 10 minutes later, nothing happened.

  I decided to start the installer directly from inside infected computer, but this resulted in a failure too.

  say that the downloaded bios is not compatible.

  What I'm asking is how I should go about the removal of the old bios (possibly) infected and reinstall it again.

  I'm not aware of a way to Flash the BIOS in Ubuntu, but it might be possible if there is a wine app in the version you have.  I have not experienced or read where someone else tried it either.  You could ask for more in the Ubuntu forums.  Don't know if it is possible to WIN PE 3.0 either.

• HP envy 700 019-desktop computer: how to find software recovery

  some of my software programs have stopped working, I found out how do it before but now I forgot how I got to reinstall them. Can someone tell me please how to restore and or repair.

  It works similarly for HP pavilion laptop also running 8 64-bit windows.

  Thanks in advance.

  New emma22 Hi,

  Thanks for the quick response!

  As I understand it, it's your laptop that does not have the Recovery Manager, the RECOVERY Partition is missing from this computer, the laptop is not able to rip a CD with the multimedia player you indicated above, and that you are not able to find the laptop using the network of the homegroup. I'd love to help you with these questions!

  To activate the laptop to rip CDs to your Media Player, I advise you to follow the steps described in this document on rip music from a CD. To re - install the RECOVERY Partition and the Recovery Manager on your laptop, please follow this resource on getting a disc recovery HP or HP USB recovery disc.

  To discover devices on your network to homegroup, I recommend later in this document on homegroup from start to end. If you are still not able to rip CDs or to identify the laptop from the desktop on the homegroup, I suggest you contact the Support technique Microsoft for assistance.

  Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your response!
