HP Pavilion dv6t-6100 CTO Quad: processor upgrade

Hello fellow admins classmates
can I ask if I can improve my processor Intel Core i7-2630QM 2.00 GHz at 2.30 GHz Intel Core i7-2820QM?

any help and suggestions will be appreciated

Check Page 2 here:

Manual

Yes, the 2820QM is the top of the page compatible processor. For an increase in clock speed of 15%, I'm not sure that the upgrade will do a lot for you, but if you feel able to do so, the upgrade will work.

This processor is quite expensive:

They run up to $200 on eBay. I invest this money in an SSD if you do not already have one.

  • HP Pavilion dv6t-6100 CTO Quad Edition Entertainment Notebook PC bluetooth?

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6t-6100 CTO Quad Edition Entertainment Notebook PC with Win7 Home Edition. The manual indicates that it has bluetooth capabilities. Device Manager does not list a bluetooth adapter. Belarc Advisor said that the laptop has an Intel Centrino Wireless Bluetooth 3.0 adapter and high-speed virtual. I downloaded and installed sp55138.exe Intel PROSet driver bluetooth, but still no bluetooth.

    This laptop have bluetooth capability, and what is the appropriate driver/software to activate it?

    Thank you.

    To check if your laptop is Bluetooth capable, go to the device and then manager network adapters. Note the model of network adapter, and then check the manufacturer's website. My original card is an Intel N1000, that isn't compatible Bluetooth. I intend to change it on shortly with another model that has Bluetooth.

  • HP Pavilion dv6t-6100 CTO Quad problem with graphics switchable

    -HP Pavilion dv6t-6100 CTO Quad

    -Win7 64-bit

    -Can not pass an Intel HD 3000 and Radeon 6770

    I recently had a problem with my computer that I solved it by using a recovery disk to do a clean install of windows.  When I was running, I noticed that when I right click on the desktop I no longer get the switchable graphics configuration option.

    I started by redownloading from the site Web of AMD catalyst control center.  For some reason any installing this forced my resolution of 800 x 600 instead of 1366 x 768.  I drove back on two graphics cards drivers and that fixed my resolution.  I went to the HP website and updated all drivers related to graphics cards.  However, the CCC gave an error message saying that it detects all the drivers AMD.  At this point, I uninstalled CCC and other AMD software on the system, and I'm a little stuck.

    I can't download CCC again because it seems to mess up the resolution, but it seems to me to need to change graphics cards.

    Hello TacitRonin,

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!

    I understand that you are not able to re - install the CCC that there is a problem with the resolution with its installation, and I'd be happy to help you!

    To re - install correctly CCC, I recommend to delete the entire AMD driver on your computer and re - install. To do this, remove the software from programs and features.

    Once the driver is then deleted, please remove the driver from Device Manager by following this document on Uninstall or reinstall a device. This should help to re - install your CCC program to your laptop.

    In addition, I also suggest to use the re HP Recovery Manager - install the supplied with your laptop original drivers. This can done by following this document on the use of the Recovery Manager to restore the software and drivers (Windows 7).

    Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your response!

  • Pavilion dv7t-6100-cto-quad: I can't get the new drivers on the hp support site

    I have restored my ssd from disks that I made the computer when I bought it and I did everything I know to do and can not get the hp support site to give me a list of drivers for that computer. I know there must be some updated drivers for the computer 3 years, but I don't know how to get them and it is interfiering with other programs or drivers that need updated drivers that I can't. Please help me with this. I learned that the site is in place and current, but it does not work as far as I can tell, for my portable quad, dv7t-6100 cto. Everything continues to run and never becomes pilots. Thanks for any help in getting this resolved.

  • Bluetooth problem: HP Pavilion dv7t-6100 CTO Quad Edition Entertainment Notebook PC

    Hello forums HP!

    I have problems with the bluetooth in my HP dv7t-6100.

    I am no longer able to see/add devices bluetooth with Windows 7 is to add a device. He was working a few weeks ago, but was (waking up from his sleep would cause the device to turn off and I should enable in Device Manager to operate).

    I tried unistalling, then reinstall the drivers Wifi and different bluetooth drivers, but I can't see my bluetooth devices (which I know work btw).

    Try to add the com ports manually does not work, and I can't remove them later, because I get the message error "the specified service does not exist.

    And by clicking on "Choose a COM port for a Bluetooth device" brings up the help page for Spider Solitaire, which makes no sense.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you!

    WELL, I GOT MY BLUETOOTH WORKS AGAINN!  (Sorry for the caps)

    After turning around uninstalling and installing drivers for many hours, deletion of registry keys, reseating the bluetooth module, I finally found something that worked.

    I have installed the Toshiba bluetooth stack software and unfortunately, my bluetooth has started working again! Wohoo!

    It was difficult to settle at first it seemed that the installation froze on the driver real bluetooth, but just cancel and start the program caused to function normally. (I think its because my stack of drivers/bt bt were corrupt and I couldn't make them disappear completely).

    So, if your bluetooth stops working to the point where mine was to, try another bluetooth stack. It should not be Toshiba, but it happens to work with my HP laptop.

    SEE YOU SOON!

  • HP Pavilion dv6z-6100 CTO Quad Edition display replacement

    Looking for a quote on a replacement display for laptop from my friend. I'm quite fine with replace it myself, and it is out of warranty. But finding a legitimate replacement to order screen is always fragmentary for me. Figured that a response to a real HP forum can instill more confidence in me by buying one that is compatible with this laptop.

    I thought it would be as easy as to enter my number of product on the HP site and get a quote for spare parts, a girl can dream I suppose...

    Any help would be great! Thank you!

    If it helps-product #: LK182AV

    I understand that you need to know what Board you need for the system.

    Page 103 of this guide lists the billboards are compatible with this device.  One of those listed will work, but you may need to order the Panel that corresponds to the color of the system.  For example, Black Espresso would be ordered if the unit was black espresso.  Once you determine what billboard is being ordered, you can order it by searching online for the corresponding part number.  You can also check the numbers here, but the parties seem to be there as detailed as they were in the maintenance and service guide.

    It is the LCD gray steel.  I gave an example of the gray steel as it is usually the most common color among the units of the HP.

  • HP Pavilion dv6t 6100 drivers

    Hello, I have a hp Pavilion dv6t 6100 CTO Quad edition, model number LM720AV with the graphics card Radeon HD 6700 M. I can't install the Intel HD Graphics driver.

    Recently, the tables of partition on my hard drive I've screwed up, and I was forced to erase the entire disk, recovery sector included, to reinstall windows 7 Home premium. I installed most of the drivers, but the driver "Intel high definition (HD) Graphics Driver" will not be installed because the installer nixes installation and indicates something of this order: "your computer does not meet the hardware requirements. I am sure that I download the right driver from the right pagel also, I download the driver even when I use the automatic detection feature drivers. I used the HP support assistant program, but the only driver it says that I need is the biometric scanner. Also, I installed the radeon drivers, but my card is declared invalid in the Device Manager. How could do to solve this?

    Thanks for your help.

    First of all, it's a great range of info that you put there for me; I wish that every person in forums answered that although you did right.

    In any case, I realized the solition, although I'm not sure the cause mechanics. I found an intel driver hd in file system of controllers of ata ida from the Device Manager and uninstalled, then did the same with drivers Radeon and finally reinstalled Catalyst. I guess it was something to do with installing stand-alone installation intel makes wonder why they are avalible for download in the pilot centre involving the user must install in the first place.

    Now, my excellent work of pilots as evidence by I can get a much better resolution, I can change the brightness and the whole system runs out cold by about 75% before installing the drivers.

    Thanks again for your help.

  • Pavilion dv6t-6100 Quad Edition (2nd generation) CPU upgrade

    I have pavilion dv6t-6100 Quad Edition laptop with one of the 2nd gen i7 processors. What type of upgrades to the graphics card and CPU can I do?

    Hello:

    Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.  Intel processors supported are listed in Chapter 1, page 2.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02842252.PDF

    Graph cannot be upgraded, except if the card mother set is replaced.  Support Intel motherboards with various graphics solutions are in Chapter 3, beginning on page 27.  You must also pay special attention to the fact that the jury is for a processor dual core or quad.

    I would also add that the financial costs and monitoring of personal work to exchange the motherboard and the processor upgrade, would exceed the cost of buying another laptop with the processor and graphics card solution you're looking for, following the sale or your trade.

  • Upgrade HP Pavilion DV6T-6100 processor

    I currently have a HP Pavilion DV6T-6100 with the 2GB Radeon switchable graphics card and an i7-2630QM processor. I watched the maintenance manual and the best processor I can update is the i7-2820QM. When I bought this machine, there was only the 2nd gen available i7s.

    Would it not possible to upgrade for a 3rd gen i7 processor? Specifically, the i7-3820QM? They have the same power of dissipation, and it would be much faster than if I switch to just the i7-2820QM.

    No, I'm not 100% certain, but certain to 99%.

    More 3rd generation processors require Intel 7 as the 3820 series chipset.

    Your a Intel 6 series chipset.

    There is no revision of BIOS listed on the support page and the driver of your laptop that adds support for any Intel 3rd generation of processor.

    You can also read the info on the link below which lists the supported processors with the chipset of your notebook can operate.

    Now, this list seems very important to me, and the BIOS of your laptop would have to have all the firmware for the processors listed, which I doubt, he does.

    In any case, you won't see the i7-3820QM among the long list of processors, they say, are supported in the HM65 chipset.

    HP decides which processors will work in what specifications and built the BIOS accordingly.

    http://www.CPU-upgrade.com/MB-Intel _ (chipsets) HM65_Express.html

    To be sure, I'd install only one of the supported processors listed in the service manual for your model.

    The only time where I go against that advice is if a BIOS update adds support for the latest processors are not not in the service manual, and it lists the new processors that will be supported by the update.

I currently have the original 6 GB of ram that came on the HP laptop, which includes a stick of 4 GB and 2 GB key.

    I want to spend the maximum amount of ram and the ram for maximum performance (speed). Analysis of Crucial.com says I have 6 GB of ram and the maximum ram is 8 GB.

    The Crucial scan seems to direct me to the memory of better and faster that is listed in the Service Guide. My laptop took advantage of this Crucial memory to operate at faster speeds than the memory, I have now? What latency (CL) cases? I saw sticks to new Egg with CL = 9 instead of this Crucial CL = 11. CL is important? What I have to buy two Crucial 4 GB sticks or I can I keep my original 4 GB stick and add a Crucial 4 GB stick for my 8GB? Is Crucial memory memory low density -something I've read elsewhere that I need? FWIW, a diagnostic analysis of Norton said that my current memory is syncing to 1067 ns.

    I have also these two links below for key USB PNY to a Best Buy nearby. The first stick of memory PNY seems to correspond to the Crucial memory card. Is - this low density memory PNY memory? And yet once, can I buy a single stick of 4 GB and add to my current 4 GB stick?

    Hello.  I'll answer my own questions in the last post above.  Fortunately, HP expert Paul Tikanen resolved my questions in a thread with the following response.  Thank you, Mr. Tikkanen!

    So, my recommendation would be for you to buy a module of memory 4 GB DDR3 PC3 - 10600 (1333 MHz).

    Thus, even the 1333 MHz chip will only work at 1066 MHz.

    I had a lot of success with this configuration of brand and the memory chip.

    Regardless of the brand you download, make sure he's 8 the little black chips of memory on each side of the Board, not 4.
