HP Pavilion Dv6 Notebook PC: Cannot adjust the brightness/contrast

Hi all

After a new installation of Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium on my HP Pavilion dv6, I find that I can't adjust the brightness/contrast of the screen. Initially, I had installed a generic pnp Monitor driver, but after reading a solution which recommends to uninstall, I did, but to no avail. I have also tried installing HP Support Assistant, scanned my laptop computer for outdated drivers and have installed the recommended drivers, but I am always faced with the same problem.

If you provide me with any details on my laptop, let me know.

Thank you.

Hello.

I realized later that I had 215 updates of windows install. After I did, the problem solved itself, but I think that among the updates has been one for the graphics driver.

Thanks for your response!

  • HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC: cannot install the Bluetooth driver

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 A1U55AV who had a hard drive failure. After replacing the drive and the installation of the operating system, I was able to get all the drivers reinstalled except bluetooth. First of all, the HP support site gives me three options... Looks like it should just give me a. Which should I use?

    I tried to use the Intel PROSet Bluetooth Driver, but I get the following error on my machine (FYI - Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Service Pack 1 is my operating system).

    I'm using the correct driver, and if so, why the installer does not work?

    Hello:

    If you are sure that your laptop came with built-in bluetooth (the Realtek 8188CE wireless card can come in a combination or card bluetooth not combination), then this is the bluetooth driver you need for this wireless card.

  • Cannot adjust the brightness after display driver update on Satellite L855-118

    Hello.

    I just bought a SATELLITE L855-118, with ATI graphics card today, it was between this and another of them, but I know that you have problems updating graphics drivers on a portable Sony.

    I did a restore point.

    So I uninstalled the ATI catalyst graphics card and then did a sweeper driver and rebooted and then installed catalyst 12.6, installed fine, but my screen went to the maximum brightness and I can't adjust, BRIGHTNESS osd is displayed but the brightness of the screen does not change.

    So I used my restore point.

    This time I crushed the catalyst 8.9 with 12.6 stock, still cannot adjust the brightness.

    Someone knows how to solve this problem.

  • 15 - r254nu:. Cannot adjust the brightness on Windows 8.1

    So I tried different ways to resolve this issue, but again the light cannot be turned on/off. Help, please!

    Hello:

    There are two Intel driver links to the choices on your laptop support page.

    I explored the folder of the driver of this driver file to support your laptop and driver page, and it is suitable to use driver.

    This package provides the driver that allows graphics Intel high definition (HD) in the notebook models that are running an operating system supported. If the video output high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) is supported, this package also installs the HDMI Audio Driver.

    File name: sp69589.exe

    The hardware ID for the Intel graphics card in your laptop must be one of these...

    ;=====================================================================
    ;    Windows 8.1 install
    ;=====================================================================
    [IntelGfx.NTamd64.6.3]

    % iVLVGMT0% = iVLV2M_w81, PCI VEN_8086 & DEV_0F31 & SUBSYS_220F103C
    % iVLVGMT0% = iVLV2M_w81, PCI VEN_8086 & DEV_0F31 & SUBSYS_2213103C
    % iVLVGMT0% = iVLV2M_w81, PCI VEN_8086 & DEV_0F31 & SUBSYS_2210103C
    % iVLVGMT0% = iVLV2M_w81, PCI VEN_8086 & DEV_0F31 & SUBSYS_2214103C

    You should see a device from Intel HD graphics instead of the graphics card base of Microsoft, and unless you can get the graphics driver to install you will not be able to adjust the brightness of the screen.

    Is the above driver do not install the Intel graphics card automatically, try to install the driver manually by navigating to the folder of the driver that is created after running the above file.

    Confirm that the hardware for the Intel graphics card ID matches one of the above since the driver installation information file that I posted.

    To find the ID of the hardware, Device Manager, click the graphics card Microsoft Basic.

    Then click on the Details tab in the upper part of the window Microsoft Basic graphics card.

    Now you should see a drop-down list of property and it is set by default to the Description of the unit.

    On this list and select the 3rd point (Hardware ID).

    Confirm that the hardware ID, you see there is one of those listed that I posted.

  • Cannot adjust the brightness of the screen after the new installation of Windows 7

    I have a Pavilion dv2945se notebook. I have completely updated the Nvidia geforce 7150 m drivers. My laptop came with Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit, and I did a new install of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I can't adjust the brightness of the display. I narrowed down the problem to the generic PnP Monitor driver. How can I solve this problem?

    Edit: I mean "impossible to adjust the brightness of the display" that every time I go into power options and trying to use the cursor, Windows Explorer crashes. Also, my fn + F7 and F8 keys light work before I connect to windows, but not after. I think that something will charge when I connect to windows that is causing the problem. So I went in Mode safe, but then all that allows to control the brightness has not loaded when I went into safe mode, which was not helpful. I also went into MSConfig and disabled all startup programs, but again, I have the same problem. The brightness of the keys work before connect you to Windows, but not thereafter.

    When I turn off the device generic PnP monitor (1) can't adjust the brightness at all and (2) the Power Options window stops freezing. That's how I've narrowed the problem to the generic PnP Monitor driver.

    I finally solved this by uninstalling the driver for the ALPS touchpad. Because there are no Windows 7 drivers for my laptop even though it is listed in the models capable of upgrading to Windows 7, I used Windows Vista touchpad drivers. It was the cause of my problem with brightness adjustment. I don't know why it worked, but I've narrowed it down by disabling all processes start and then from their one at a time to see what caused the problem. As soon as I started Apoint.exe, I started to have problems.

    Now, I just have to find a way to disable the touchpad tapping without the ALPS drivers.
