HP Pavilion dv6-6108us: why HP has locked my product key?
I'm trying to reinstall Windows 7 on my laptop HP using ISO available on Microsoft site, as my current Windows became defective after 5 years of use (Note: this laptop was purchased with Windows pre-installed). To download the file, I need to check my key product of Windows 7; which I documented. However, after you have submitted the information, I received an error message indicating that Microsoft has a problem with my key. I contacted Microsoft Support and they told me that my product key has been locked by the manufacturer of my computer (HP).
I have no idea how the have unlocked, and I don't know WHY it was locked, but I'd like to be able to use my existing key to do a clean install of my OS... I am aware that this laptop is old and out of warranty, but it was perfectly fine until recently. So, what reason is there that HP would lock my Windows 7 product activation key and how would I be able to use it?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
Hello
First of all, you can NOT use an OEM Key Code to activate a retail installation. You need the OEM of Windows version. In this case, you can contact HP in your country to order a set of recovery.
Kind regards.

HP Pavilion dv6-1355dx: laptop startup problems and lost product key
My laptop is not starting. I get the message "device not found Boot. Please install the operating system on your hard disk "." I tried the steps listed on the HP website (step 1: Hard reset, step 2: restore default BIOS settings, step 3: hard disk Test, step 4: reconnect the hard drive, step 5: System Recovery), but the problem persists.
Please guide me in the following things.
1. What can be done to fix this? I got control of the laptop of one of the centres of local services. They said that there is a problem with the hard drive. I'll have to get the replaced disk. I have no other option?
2. I bought my laptop in 2009. It came with Windows 7 Edition home premium. Now, I don't have a product key to reinstall the same copy of windows 7. Also, I am not able to connect to the laptop because of that I won't be able to retrieve the product key from your laptop. The sticker on the back of the laptop is not more readable. It hits the major options to retrieve the key. Is there another method by which I can retrieve the key? So far, I used to restore my computer laptop settings every time I need to format my laptop.3. the only thing I have with me are recovery disks (3 in total). These will be of any help in order to get the windows installed on the new hard drive? Other suggestions pls?
Looks like a bad HDD. Your product key of WIn7 which carried out the sticker on the underside of your laptop. You must get the HP HP recovery or 3rd party disc to restore your system to the rear. And there's a good chance your HARD drive is bad and must be replaced.

Why do I need a product key update
Why do I need a product key update. Is this Microsofts ensure everyone makes use of the free upgrade to windows 10 of which I don't really care to do?

HP Pavilion dv6-6004tx - why is there no support page?
So, I bought a HP Pavilion dv6-6004tx online on the Site of HP us in late July/early August 2011. Everyone has noticed it seems to be a page for this exact model?
After digging through loads of notebooks series dv6, you might find a page for the 6004tx, but it's just a list of specifications - nothing more. I'm trying to find the drivers/software for this after an upgrade to Windows 8 consumers, guess I have to use those 6003tx. Someone get lazy and forget to include this model?

The main objective is for evaluation purposes. The big thing to their subject, unlike Microsoft, MSDN or TechNet keys evaluation software expires. Because the agreement by virtue of which the subscription is provided is a single license, none of the software should be distributed outside of it. Although its $50,000 worth of licenses, it is for one person only for use and no one else.

Microsoft it issues licences in good faith that customer will not do it, but I guess human nature win on.In your case, what has probably happened is, you bought a license MSDN key, which carries up to 10 activations unlike packed full of retail licenses which carry 1 activation. The person who sold it to you probably sold to 10 other people. Somewhere along the way, one of these people could have installed on a second system activated, because it went past 10 activation threshold, Microsoft has detected that he was abused and blocked the key for later use. »

Everything works very well. I usually my laptop on a fan base to keep things cool and operating a peak, but for these times I am in portable mode, I need to be sure I am I protected if I want to replace my old Fan to make sure I keep my system cool when not on the fan base.
My laptop also has 'dedicated memory' for graphics, but when looking the model of adequate replacement of fan they ask if she "integrated graphics". I can do a case of integrated logic could be regarded as either the same, or opposite, of dedicated.
Does anyone have the experience here and can tell me positively fan I need to replace?

I was using my laptop for general browsing today and she left open for about half an hour to attend to other things, but when I came back, I found that the touchpad had stopped responding completely - the two buttons and the trackpad. The touchpad no longer appears in Device Manager.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the driver Synaptics touchpad of HP Recovery Manager and the Web of Synaptics, company site restarts in each case, but nothing helps. After each restart, however, I received a pop-up message in a program, I install it, TwoFingerScroll saying "Synaptics touchpad device is not found! This program caused no nay problems within two years, I've used. The touchpad, also, has never had any problem.
It was, as I said, a development suddenly. Fortunately, I had a USB mouse on the spot so I'm managing it, but it is imperative that I solve what I am a student and have to present my final thesis in a week; It threatens to derail my efforts completely.

A few days ago, when I woke up my HP Pavilion laptop dv6 7010tx (running windows 8 pro 64-bit) of sleep, I noticed that he had lost all the sounds. Audio tracks cannot be played on any media player, videos play on intermittently without any audio and there is no sound regardless of the program or application running. Restart the portable computer is not the problem.
Also should be noted that the f11 key (mute) does nothing. The LED on the key is off, the volume indication appears on the screen because it didn't then change volume keys f9, f10, however it shows no mute / mute off-label as it should when working properly. I have troubleshooted the problem and I am sure that the sound card is not a problem. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks in advance!
