HP PAVILION DV6-3124TX heats up little s too

Hello everyone, long time user of HP, first time poster.

I have a HP PAVILION DV6-3124TX, first off the coast, it is an impressive machine. But recently its been doing extremely hot and extremely noisy (fan), and sometimes the carcass around the fan, festers while, if I touch it accidentally, I find hurt my fingers.

When you use the CPU temperature monitoring tools, they show that the temperature is around 70-75 (when the computer is idle, the CPU usage said Task Manager is about 1-2% RealTemp says the charge is 2 to 3%)

Also, when I leave the computer on without using it for a while (2-3 hours) even the upper part of the computer becomes extremely hot, the keyboard, the side to the left of the mouse, and sometimes all of the computer.

So what I want to know, is this normal? all this experience? and what other things I can try to solve this problem. And is there a way I could get a replacement, or trade of this computer to the other. Honestly, I don't want to go for the 2 last options, I love this computer so I don't want to give this dude, I'm a little (perhaps paranoid) worried because my warranty ends in 2012 April.

P.S. I wrote to customer support India, asking them for a solution to this and there is no response, I wrote the mail even once again, and he had no answer for the last week or two.

Oh and I checked for viruses, or any process abnormal, and I found nothing.

Thanks in advance.

You can chat online with an HP expert about your problem and details if your eligibility to replace your laptop.

  • HP Pavilion DV6-3210us: different heat sink? (HP Pavilion DV6-3210us)

    Hello

    Recently, I posted a message on a HP Pavilion dv6-3210us death.

    Received a motherboard replacement & after installation, I turned on. The fan ran & almost from the start, the computer turns off. When I turned it back to try again, he came with a message 'overheat '. I waited and tried again, and yet once, it returns the same results...

    Received another card mother replacement today and after further review (the original replacement is exactly the same) there is a chip with 3 screw for an another heat sink holes. It seems to be a video card with chips 4 memory along the side of it. The jury is exactly the same as the original with the exception of these chips. Does anyone know about this chip & if there is another type of heatsink / fan for it?

    Thanks for any assistance, you may be able to provide.

    Hello @Dyke67ny,

The fan runs continuously for a long time. When executing, there are distortions in the speakers. I showed it to a hp service center and they have replaced the fan. I also cleaned. The problem still persists. I read on the hp site which may help to update the BIOS. Must iupdate BIOS? This will help?

  • Pavilion dv6-6c14nr: launch of the browser and redirecting on several occasions

    For the last two days, I had a problem frustrating with my browser/computer - the browser will be repeated launch or redirect to the home page.  To be more precise, if the focus is on an active browser window (in other words, if this is the app that I use or this is the last application, I clicked on), the browser will redirect to the home screen.  If, however, the emphasis is on another application, a new browser window will be launched.  This problem occurs regardless of the browser that I use (and when a new browser window opens, it is my default browser, Chrome, and it opens to my home page, a new empty tab).  When I was working in Visual Studio, it opens the browser which belongs to VS, then repeatedly redirected to the home page by default for this browser. The frequency with which this happens varies, once every few minutes, at most of the time (more than once per second) - I got 40 + windows browser in less than a few minutes. I removed all of the Add-Ins and Extensions, under the assumption that one of them could be the cause of the problem - no luck.

    I read similar messages on the HP Board by people who appear to have been able to solve this problem, despite the attempt of everything, including the relocation of the browsers and even reformat the hard disk!  Someone suggested that fixing file hosts worked for her, but I checked my and it seems to be as it should.

    In fact, I wonder if this could be a hardware problem any. Seems not intuitive for me, of course, but here's the thing... a few days previously, when booting, I saw some kind of error about my fan works not properly.  I installed Speccy (by Piriform) to monitor the conditions of my system and noticed that my computer has been running hot from time to time. So, I know this sounds nuts, but I put an ice pack under my laptop (well, two trays full of ice in an oversized Ziplock bag) and the problem seems to have slowed down a bit.  Also, I noticed that this problem seems quite widespread on HP Pavilion machines.

    Is it possible to fix this? Or will I stuck buying a new laptop? Although laptops are really cheap now, I really can't afford it. I suspect that the replacement of the fan would cost almost as much as a new laptop. But I can't work on it like that! Any ideas or suggestions?

    Thank you!

    Hello and thanks for your advice and comments.  After reviewing the comments posted to some old messages to people with similar problems, I think I understand the problem, but also a solution in the short term...

    Apparently a fan problem is originally the computer overheats a little, and the heat is initially somehow the computer thinks that the shortcut for 'WWW-Home' is pressed several times (not sure of the mechanics behind this, but the shortcut implies the F5 key, which is located in one of the hottest areas of the computer).  The warmer the computer becomes, is more frequently as she considers the shortcut key display press and more frequently a new browser is launched.  So, a quick solution to the problem - disable the shortcut key (by editing the registry or by using a software like KeyTweak - the code for the key is 144, btw). Of course, I'll replace my fan in the next few days (I have a bag of ice below pending), but it's nice to have the use of my computer until there!

    Based on the other posts, I've read, this problem seems quite common for my laptop model - a HP Pavilion dv6 - 6 c 14nr.  Most of the messages I read involved HP pavilions, and many of them were a HP Pavilion dv6 or similar.  Others with the same problem seem to have experienced worsening much more that what I have - many of them actually reformat the hard drive when nothing else worked - and if this still does not solve the problem for them, they got rid of their HP laptop. Perhaps HP can save this information as a 'known problem' and view the Guide somewhere for support staff and users to easily find?

    Thanks again!

  • Try refomat Pavilion dv6 Vista 64-bit. C: format not available

    It has been a year since I have my Pavilion dv6.  It's a little slow and I want a new installation of Windows 7 64-bit.  All my data is stored on external hard drive.

    I have my recovery disk ready to go.  When I right click on "C:" in the management of the computer, it won't let me choose 'Format '.  It is just gray.

    How to reformat my C:?

    Yes, my laptop has a recovery partiion (D I understand that I must leave in tact.)

    Advice on getting this format complete?

    Hello

    Since you still have the recovery partition, use Restore Factory is a better option because formatting OS drive is not the same as the format or other readers. Please back up all your data/files first.

    To set your PC/laptop to the factory settings, restart the PC/laptop. At HP Home screen has reached repeatly F11 (or ESC) key to start the recovery process. Follow the instructions on the screen.

    Kind regards.

  • HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC: Wireless Device on HP Pavilion Dv6 does not!

    Hello! I'll start with my mobile information system (and please excuse my spelling and language because I am very frustrated at the moment and typing this on a cell phone)

    It's a HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC with product number - B3K21PA #ABG. Serial number is 2CE2201C96. I have a Broadcom 4313GN 1 x 1 adapter Wi - Fi 802.11b/g/n according to my device manager. I recently chanhed my ISP and the wireless router, they provided is the Linksys E1200 model.

    Now, on the problem - after the use of an extended internet (Skype call or internet games) my laptop just stops giving me access to the internet. And I say it like that because the internet connection icon shows that I have access to the network and internet connection, but none of my software or browsers are able to connect to the internet. This is the first time, she does. I tried updating the driver (both by checking the driver updates and downloading the drivers manually). I also tried system restore and everything I could think off trying to do a factory reset on the whole thing. And I should mention also - although this problem has happened several times now since I changed ISP (and Yes, I called them on this subject too), this currently seems to be permanent, because it has been hours and it still does not.

    Any advice on what may be the problem or that the methods to try to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. I agree to be only moderately enough when it comes to operating a computer that I am not tech savvy kind, but have been using computers for a while now. For now, my current solution is a fall from my window on the 16th floor and see if that fixes anything. I'm not in my own country and the laptop is old a few years for technical support is hard to find.

    I might be sounding a little passive aggressuve and I apologize for that (I have, however, do not deny these circumstances).

    Thank you for reading through my wall of text of nonsense and condescend to help a poor fellow in his time of need.

    Yours sincerely.

    Hello:

    See if this help... driver installation is much more recent than on taking in charge of your computer laptop and driver page.

  • Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC: I can pass on my HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC (memory, processor, graphics)

    My dv6 became very slow. I am running Windows 10 and now it takes 15-20 minutes to wake him up from his sleep and connect. Ive done a lot of cleanup and optimization, but nothing got better on that. It get very hot very quickly and the fan always seems to be at the top. I'm looking to try to upgrade the memory and perhaps the (quad-core) processor at least if possible, to see if the performance is going to do better. I can hardly do anything on this issue now because it takes too long! I have a 1 TB of HDD installed there a few years and who works well, but everyday navigation, products microsoft office and editing photo/video light from time to time are almost impossible! What memory and processors are compatible with my device that I could look in the upgrade? Any help is greatly appreciated! I'm new to upgrades of memory and others so I had a bit of a problem of the research/understand exactly what I would like to search! I will post the form below!

    http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docid=emr_na-c02548013

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See p. 23. Your laptop has the CPU i3 - 370 M and UMA (Intel HD) video so, unfortunately, the processor is not extensible because it is soldered to the motherboard. Put video updated would also require the replacement of the motherboard. CPU upgrades are very difficult and rarely justify financially, in any case, but in your case is not possible at all unless you replace the motherboard, which is even more expensive and less be justified financially. The cost of high end motherboard and CPU and work, you might as well buy a new laptop.

    But all is not lost. The best upgrade, you can do is to install an SSD. You can also switch to 8 GB of RAM. An upgrade will be useful, together, they would be a game-changer.

    You would need 2 x 4 GB modules specified thus:

    Memory module (DDR3 PC3 - 10600 1333 MHz) - 4096 MB 599092-001

    https://www.Amazon.com/HP-VH641AT-4-GB-DDR3-PC3-10600/DP/B0030L3B8E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8 & qid = 1472066313 & SR = 8-1 & Keywords = 599092-001

    This model is very, very picky about the memory and it must have 8 black blocks on the side, not 4. Also very intolerant of memory not specified in general. Remember that I bound will work. 'How to' on the manual p.60.

    SSDS are a little harder to choose (as many options) and what I need to know is your budget. I recommend at least a concert 500 class SSD and which will cost $120-160. Since you have 10 Windows, it would be easy to download the Microsoft recovery media directly and simply reinstall, then find the drivers and applications and migrate the data. The installation will be ignited automatically the first time that the computer is connected to the internet. You can also clone the existing content of the new SSD hard drive, but I do not recommend with a facility that is malfunctioning.

    We also probably discuss blowing dust and verification of thermal management in general. A laptop that suddenly becomes very slow, as you describe may have a hard drive problem, too. You need to run diagnostics on the hard drive and also just to check to see if it is full. Drops of performance as a rock if the hard disk reaches 90 percent and more capacity.

  • HP Pavilion dv6-1210sa: Bluetooth problem

    Hello I bought new headphones for bluetooth, and I thought that I could connect to my laptop but I'm not sure now, I thought that perhaps he did not due to not having the driver for it, but still questions

    A little fed up now and don't want to lose any more time thinking I am not put in right place and whether actually to him is not not possible in the first place...

    I installed HP Wireless Assistant, hoping that would help as details of HP bluetooth also mentions good and yet still nothing when I go to plug my headphones (headset connected to my phone and I have the helmet details to tell I can pair it with two devices).

    I'm wasting my time?

    Help please.

  • Pavilion dv6 problem with webcam and microphone

    Hello
    I have a HP Pavilion dv6-6156ea, which is a little more than a month.  It runs Windows 7 Home Premium.
    Today, tried to use the webcam and microphone for the first time, a Skype call, but none of them does not seem to work.
    The webcam is not displayed in Device Manager, but the microphone is.
    When I opened Cyberlink Youcam, it does not recognize that there is an internal webcam.
    What should I do to activate the microphone and the cam?

    I followed the link below and follow the instructions.  But the webcam is not displayed in Device Manager.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02452221

    Because is not find the device, I don't know how to update the drivers.

    I don't know how to solve the problem with the microphone.  I don't know if these things are likely to be associated.

    Any help appreciated

    Thank you

    Feel a little silly answering myself, but no one responded and I thought it is best to share what I found out.

    The webcam was defective, straight out of the box.

    And the microphone is connected to these features, but uses a different driver - if your microphone works, it could be a sign that your problem is with the driver for the cam.

    I bought the PC world a month ago, so there was although it is very busy.  It was the second faulty webcam in HP they had returned today - most early was a dv7.  There was no problem with replace - they took a glance, considered to be the installation of the drivers on a disc, but when it was not displayed in Device Manager and the microphone works not more, they knew right away.

    It really shows control of very poor quality of Hewlett-Packard.  It's a shame that in the first weeks, I was really happy with this model, but realistically, now I know that this is what looks like their QC, when my company needs its next piece I'll go with anything other than HP.
