• HP Pavilion dv6-black screen only works with the external monitor

  I discovered that my screen was not turn on yesterday when I tried to turn on my laptop. Fortunately I was able to plug it into an external monitor with a VGA cable and I have a monitor in my office, but I can not really be restricted to my living room or office to use my laptop.  Y at - it easy fixes to this, or is my only option to take it to someone with experience that replace the monitor for me?

  Hello

  Given the external screen display there are so few opportunities...

  -Sun display-project is a flashlight on the screen and check if you can see the bottom - if background is visible while it is the backlight in the LCD screen that needs to be replaced.

  - Display dark: if it is completely black and nothing is visible when you Flash light on the screen, then it is due to the LCD screen itself might be a broken screen (a cable that connects to the motherboard screen) or could be inverter LCD.

  If the laptop is still under warranty so I recommend you call HP tech support and they will be able to get it fixed for you.

  Yes, you should be able to reinstall, but if you can you should disable before resetting the machine.  Otherwise, if the two license activations were used and no reset you will need to contact Adobe Support by chat and ask them to reset your activations.

• Start with an external display Vista on HP laptop

  Hello

  My HP laptop screen is broken, so I need to use an external monitor. Unfortunately, the screen not active really up to what I'm going to connect to the page into account. This means that if I want to access bios, upgrade to a new operating system, or to do other things, I'm completely blind.

  Is it possible that I can get the operating system to start with my external monitor.

  Please note: I have a strong experience of PC and I'm decent to things like the change of systems. So feel free to suggest something dangerous or risky.

• Pavilion 6b50ei: try to factory reset but the recovery partition/drives created are defective

  I have a pavilion dv7-6b50ei notebook pc purchased 2012. He always gives a command prompt pop up who don't stay long enough to read. I felt too there is a virus on it that my anti-virus did not solve so I tried the factory reset, but when I restart and press F11 it gives an error (something like a boot... is missing). so I tried my recovery disks. CD 1 of 4 ran fine but disk 2 continues to stop with an error. Now, the laptop will not charge because I think that the operating system was formatted during the recovery and do not know what to do. I feel disc 2 is bad too because he also gave an error trying to copy on a USB key. I also tried an external dvd and run the hp hard disk test; the hard drive passed the test. If I can get a new set of recovery discs, it would solve my problem. In addition, I look forward to ideas. Help, please.

  Hello

  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 that you might consider is to create your own Windows 7 installation disc.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can still read all the key character product activation 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 Home Premium 64 bit SP1.

  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.

  You may need, additional drivers and software are here.

• Pavilion dv4-2170-us has problem with connection light display

  The cover on my laptop seems to have a bad connection, because I have to play with the angle to get the screen to

  show anything.  Sound very, very delicate.

  Is this something that can be fixed by a tech or should I get a new laptop?  I'm asking because there is another nother

  problem with function of my computer.

  HI @compugirl ,

  I understand this thing you display may have a bad connection that you have to play with, then fish on the screen to show the line.

  Want to know if this could be fixed by a tech.  The short answer is Yes.  Here is a link to 2009decembre 17 December 17, 2009 HP Pavilion dv4 Entertainment PC Maintenance and Service of Guide. Please note Chapter 3 page 3 for a list of the replacement screens supported by number of the part.

  It may just be a connections loose as you said, either a bad connection cable...  The cable may have become defective through the opening and closing of notebook, during normal use.  Please note Chapter 4 page 27 for the removal of the screen procedure.  Before considering the replacement of the screen, I would try a new cable first to exclude it.  You should be able to buy the cable to any computer supply store.

  I hope this has helped.

• DV 6 factory reset with HP recovery disk

  Hello
  I did a clean install of win7 because I didn't have a HP recovery disk and known a lot of driver problems... When I finally orderd one recovery disc from HP to make it back to factory State, windows does not recognize the recovery disc, since the 'HP recovery manager' by default was deleted... and when you press F11 at startup, the screen just says "F11... the system recovery" on the lower left corner and stay like that forever.

  Is what I can do to reset it to the factory?
  Thank you!

  You are the very welcome.

  I don't know what the question might be, unfortunately.

  What was the problem with the installation of W7?

  Normally, if well done, your laptop will work much better on a simplified version of W7 with all the bloatware that comes on the original image.

  I contact HP and make them aware of the number of recovery disc and in the meantime, try the clean install of W7.

  Install the drivers, it is like building a House.  You start with the Foundation and work your way upward.

  The Foundation 3 drivers must be installed in a specific order, and you reboot after each installation.

  If you do not, your installation will be unstable not unlike a House if you put the walls first and then decided to dig the basement.

  The first pilot, you always need to install is the Intel chipset installation utility.  Who installs the drivers for the motherboard.

  You restart when you are prompted.

  The second driver you install is the graphics driver.  Your model has the AMD/Intel switchable graphics, so the only graphics driver, that you install the AMD graphics driver that installs the drivers for the AMD graphics cards and Intel.   NEVER install the Intel graphics driver or allow HP or windows update to install an updated the Intel graphics driver.  Then you REB oot.

  The third driver you install is the audio driver and restarted.

  Then comes the wired network adapter.

  Then, you can install everything in any order you want.  You will probably want to install the driver for the wireless card then.

  Download the drivers from another PC and use a USB flash drive to install the first 4 on your laptop if you keep the correct order of installation for these important factors.

  If you're stuck trying to find a specific driver, display the ID of the hardware for it.

  Use this method to find the hardware ID.

  I used the for example wireless card, because most people have trouble knowing what model of wireless card they have.

  Go to Device Manager.

  There should be a category showing other devices .

  Less than one catergory other devices should be a list of devices that need drivers.

  They will have little things! marks next to them.

  The wireless network card is the device below the category other devices like a network controller.

   

  Click the network controller device, and it will open a window with tabs at the top of the window.

  Click the Details tab.

  On the Details tab, you will see a drop-down list of property.  It will be a default Description of the appliance.

  On this list and select the second item which is the hardware ID

  Now you should see 4 lines or more characters and the top row begins with PCI\VEN.

  After this first string.

  That tells the user the manufacturer and the type of device that it is.
