• Envy by dint of bad connection Ralink Rt3290 m6

  I hope someone here can help me with a problem I have experienced with my computer. My adapter (ralink rt3290) wireless worked fine out of the box for some time now, but all of a sudden I feel a drop of signal strength on the 2nd level of my house. This has caused drops frequent internet connectivity. I've been browsing google and some of the HP support the forum topics to see if I could give all the answers and tried many solutions with little improvement.

  HP envy m6 - 1184ca

  Model no. C2L94UA

  Wireless LAN adapter model: rt3290, last Ralink driver installed 5.025

  Updated BIOS updated to F.32

  Operating system: Windows 8

  -Another active wifi devices work fine on the 2nd floor. I don't think it has to do with the router. I will restart it after that I have post this thread.

  -J' fiddled with several revisions of driver without end I had similar problems with a card atheros on a Toshiba laptop that has been repaired with a 3rd driver. Currently, I'm on the latest driver 5.025 and fiddled with the settings of wireless network without success. I'll try to run a windows update to see if that fixes the problem.

  -J' opened compartments accessible user on the bottom of my computer (and nothing else) and made sure the antennas are well seated in the card, no luck. Fortunately, I did affect all the components in the process

  -I did not fell, spilled something or manhandled this laptop since I bought it.

  Everybody don't think that the network card is defective, at this point? I sure hope not, but I'm starting to get suspicious: [if I can fix it at home somehow I would prefer that.] I understand that the card itself is not the 'higher end '; I got what I paid for. I have a repair pending for a defective LCD for this specific model, so I would also like to know if I can ask HP to replace the network adapter as well before I send, with the hope that it improves the issue? The laptop is fairly new and I'm still covered by the limited warranty. Otherwise, I would like to know what would be the other alternative and more stable network adapters is compatible with my motherboard, OS and wlan slot (I'm not too familiar with computer hardware) because the issue is now beyond my knowledge! Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

  OK, I was using the default windows driver and while my connection is always to 2 bars, my connection has been constant and school drop-outs were not held. So far, it has been difficult to my problem as the ralink drivers seem to cause more problems than they fix. If my connection is still not great... it's there, and so far it works great. I'll check with this topic to see if I put a permanent end to my problem...

• Windows 7 drivers for HP ENVY Sleekbook 6-1126sa

  Hello

  I have a HP ENVY Sleekbook 6-1126sa.  I need to have Windows 7 (not Windows 8). I installed Windows 7 (no UEFI). It's pretty simple. Now I find there is no Windows 7 drivers on the HP support site. HP support site advises to use Windows updates to update drivers or visit the manufacturer's Web site. Problem is I need an Internet connection to run Windows Update but cannot find the Ralink Wireless drivers. Looking for Ralink manufacturers website I find http://www.ralinktech.com/en/ (which States that the Ralink site merged with the Web of MediaTek site and one for pilots redirects to http://www.mediatek.com/_en/07_downloads/01_windows.php). Maybe somebody has an idea which driver I'm supposed to use? Updates of Windows actually work?

  Does anyone know if HP intend to provide Windows 7 for HP ENVY Sleekbook 6-1126sa laptop drivers (and indeed any other portable newly acquired)?

  Kind regards

• HP ENVY Sleekbook 4-1000en: upgrading memory on ENVY 4-1000en

  Hello

  Since I have some basic computer knowledge, but I want to be sure before you go for it, I need your advice.

  I have a HP ENVY Sleekbook 4-1000en and I have recently upgraded to HDD and the OS.

  I think the upgrade of RAM have, as far as I know that you need 2 memories of the same type, so I guess I can't buy an another 4 GB right?

  Do I need 2 x 4 GB of DDR3 memory, of the same type to make it work? For example they would work very well

  http://www.corsair.com/en/vengeance-8gb-high-performance-sodimm-memory-upgrade-kit-cmsx8gx3m2a1600c9 ?

  Finally the upgrade memory requires any other configuration after plugin in? Is a format for example?

  Thanks for your time.

  Hello

  The following link shows the specifications of your computer:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03362810

  It has 4 GB of RAM now. The question is 4 GB in a dwelling or in the two slots (2 + 2).

  b in the case of a home, you can just buy another 4GB with SAME part/characteristics of the EXISTING RAM and install in the second slot.

  (b) if in 2 slots (IE 2 + 2), then throw them both and buy 2 new sticks 4 GB each. Agin use even care.

  You don't need to format RAM. Moreover, we have only to format HDD/SSD but not RAM. And Yes, push in the two slots must be same same specs even marks to be able to get all the benefits.

  Kind regards.

• Activate the AHCI in Windows 8 / BIOS - HP Envy Sleekbook 6 - 1153eo

  Greetings,

  My computer:

  HP Envy Sleekbook 6 - 1153eo

  Windows 8 Pro

  AHCI is currently disabled on my computer and I want to get the best performance out of it. It can be enabled easily through the windows registry, but to get this to work I need to be sure that the AHCI is currently enabled in the BIOS as well. When I enter the BIOS it's not just all advanced options available, only the time and date and other bases. How can I know weather or not that AHCI is enabled in the BIOS? How can I access the advanced options in the BIOS to turn on the AHCI (if it is not already turned on, that is)?

  Thank you.

  Kind regards

  th0d

  Hello:

  The BIOS of HP notebooks of consumption made in recent years is already set to AHCI, and it cannot be changed to any other setting.

  In some models that offer two hard drives, the default value of the BIOS can be on the RAID.

  Computers to only HP business notebooks have a BIOS setting to change the controller in AHCI or IDE mode.

  Go to Device Manager and expand the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers section and you should see a speed control that is listed as a SATA AHCI controller.

  In the case of AMD laptops, it can just be tagged as a SATA controller.

• HP ENVY Sleekbook 6-1110us: Memory Upgrade - vs 1333 MHz 1600 MHz

  Hello

  I plan to upgrade RAM my laptop 4GB to 16GB (2 x 8 GB). I went through the manual and noticed that the laptop comes with two slots for memory module:

  i. support of DDR3 - 1600 MHz single channel

  II support. DDR3 - 1333 MHz single channel (DDR3-1600 downgrade to 1333)

  I understand that memory cards should "mirror" each other in order to maintain the balance of system, they must be identical in terms of memory and performance.

  My question is this:

  Should a. I buy 2 memory cards that run at 1600 MHz? I understand the second module slot, which runs at 1333 MHz, to downgrade the two cards to this specification. Or,

  Should b. I buy 2 memory cards that run at 1333 MHz? Which would be compatible with the first slot which will at1600MHz?

  Thanks in advance for your help. Impatience on your part.

  Upgrade memory requires major disassembly in your model. It will void the warranty if you break something in the process. Ask the help of local tech if you are out of warranty and are not sure how to.

  You can buy 2 sticks of exactly the same configuration, speed, possibly brand - DDR3 1600 MHz, SODIMM SDRAM PC3-12800. Unfortunately sticks will only work on single channel even if both are of the same capacity (8 GB in two slots), so no dual channel thrust intended for your model.

  Nice day!

  I have a HP ENVY Sleekbook 4-1047tx (click for form) and I want to upgrade the RAM 8 GB, as you can see current memory is 4 GB of DDR3 memory at 1600 MHz... Can I use 4 GB DD3 1333 MHz on it? Is it safe? What could be the long term effect?

  As a general rule, long term, its not recommended to mix different frequencies & CASE, RAM together.

  But if you ask if they work together at all, they will all be two race to lower speed - no problem whatsoever in this area.

  Fortunately, your system manual lists the frequencies 1600 times & 1333 & if you put two Rams they will work in single channel type - no dual channel supports listed in the guide.  Here is your Manual (Page 1).

  The performance issue that could have landed because they are different, it's that they are running in single channel which is slower mode. But your system do not already support channel.

  So all of your ram is now 1333 but it will work very well in single channel mode.

  Download CPU - Z to see what makes your ram and ram it is. The part listed for 4 GB of RAM is in your manual.

• HP Envy 15 with Ralink RT3290 loses wireless n If windows updates 8

  I have a HP Envy 15-j040eo that has worked well until about two weeks ago, but there is no longer recognized my wireless-n. At this time, I win 8.1 64 bit with automatic updates. Other computers and iPhones is always recognized my wifi.

  After spending hours and days with the support of HP, we finally did a complete reset of the computer. Now I have Windows 8 with the works of disabled and wireless-n updates very well until I allow windows to date. If windows is allowed to update the computer does nor recognize the network. With other networks - n or with cable it works fine. The only way that the HP Support and I found get wifi work is to reset the computer. If I only update the wifi still doesn't work.

  The wireless adapter is a Ralink RT3290 802.11bgn and it works with the driver 5.0.25.0 on windows 8. When I had first of all the question I tried to update driver V5.0.46.0 but he still has not found the wifi-n in windows 8.1.

  BIOS is updated to the latest version and even if I turn auto updates of the network was cut when the upgrade of Windows 8 to 8.1 but on Windows 8 it works until I decide not to update the wireless adapter driver.

  As I'd rather have 8.1 and updated windows up-to-date with automatic updates; How can I configure to always work with wireless-n?

  Hi PMR.

  Welcome to the HP Support Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

  I understand that you have problems with your card wireless after the upgrade to Windows 8.1. I'll be happy to help you with that. One of the things is recommended when upgrading is deleting or disabling all USB devices one thing that many people do not know is that the wireless card uses an internal USB connection. So, before you upgrade either your device manager under network adapters find Ralink RT3290 wireless adapter. Then right click and select Disable. With the wireless you will need to connect via Ethernet temporarily. Once the update is completed, activate the card and install this driver Ralink RT3290. Give that a try and let me know how it goes.

  Thank you

• A buzzing and crackling sound w / HP ENVY Sleekbook 4 Beats Audio

  Product name: HP ENVY Sleekbook 4 PC
  Product number: C2K72UA #ABA
  64-bit Windows 8

  I've had this laptop for only a month, and it was going well until a few weeks ago, when he started to make this hum whenever I listen to the music or watching youtube videos. He emits a hum sound and accuses the audio for a second.

  The sound was rare at first, but then lately my laptop did the sound hum frequently to the point where I just put the audio mute.

  I did the HP Support Assistant, and everything is up-to-date.

  I also reinstalled my driver.
  My audio drivers are:
  High Denfinition Audio CODEC IDT (I reinstalled it)
  Intel(r) Audio display

  I also hear the hum when I plug my headphones too.

  This may sound weird and you would never think to make a link between a hum and a wifi card driver, but the original poster marked this resolved, and said the driver solved wireless installation. The post is linked below.

  Locate the driver for your card wifi here. You can find on which driver you need by pressing the Windows key + x simultaneously and selecting menu display the network adapters in Device Manager.
