HP Pavilion dv7-4180us problem - no power, no power battery power

I bought my laptop, I believe, end of 2010. There is a small possibility that it was late 2009, but I tend to think it was 2010. In any case, my laptop recently went on the fritz.

Two days ago I left it on so that I was on errands. He trotted much, much warmer and stronger than usual, but I thought nothing of him. Hours later, I discovered that it had extinguished, which is unusual because I had left some open applications that he would keep on. I tried to turn it on, nothing. I noticed that the ac power light (near the plug of ca) was red; It should be white to demonstrate that the power cord is plugged and recharge the battery. I tried an online solution: shut down the computer (check) unplug ac, take out the battery, press and hold the power button / stop for 30 seconds, reconnect battery and ac, turning on computer. He failed the first time, but I did it for 60 seconds, and then it worked. Everything was going well and he was supported correctly and the battery was still functioning. I thought it was just one of those things that happens on occasion, not much.

Last night, he came out again. Ran empty, stop, seeing power ac is red, sometimes flashes white when he "recognizes that he is in charge" again or whatever. Tried the procedure described above, once again, more than once, but no dice. I tried several online solutions. All the solutions I found involved the computer, as for example to do a check of the battery. My computer WON'T turn on. I can't do all the solutions who need to be on.

In my judgment, it has come down to two problems. The battery is bad, or the ca dock thing (I don't know what to call it, the thing inside the computer on which you plug the power supply cord, perhaps the "input"?) does not work. I'm pretty sure that's not the charger. At this point, I'm inclined to believe it's the ac inside the laptop thing, I took the battery and am just common alternative now, but the laptop still will not turn on. The ac power led is regularly white, without blinking, but it won't always turn. When I press the power button, it turns on for a second then turns off, and regular white from the light of the ac goes off for a few seconds. Then the ca light comes back on to regular white. Still no power.

I don't know for sure what the problem is. The charger, battery, the ac input thing. I do not know. I will visit my computer fixit man in a few hours, but I would like to know what is the problem before that date, if possible. I really appreciate any help.

PS This is the battery that comes with the laptop, so I wonder if it's not the end of his life. In addition, it has been very hot where I live lately, and sometimes more to my computer turns off due to the heat. I know that this can really interfere with a battery, but I don't know if it would kill effectively, if the battery is still the problem.

My computer guy tells me that there is a short circuit caused by the motherboard. I don't know why. He said that the motherboard will need to be replaced.

My computer is nearly three years old. It cost about $800 new. The motherboard will be approximately $150, 'labor costs' almost another $100. So, altogether, the fix would be 1/4 of the cost of the phone three years ago.

The new question is whether it is worth, and it's not even all that is false. The hinge is also moved, a problem that apparently cannot be resolved. And I had to replace my hard drive about a year, because apparently it was 'no.' In a cell two year old.

I thank you so much, used HP, to help me with my problem. I hope my sarcasm is said clearly enough. When I buy a new laptop, you can be sure that it will not be a hp. I had nothing else problems with all hp computers I've ever bought. I hate hp, and I say this with all the power of my hatred, "Screw you."

Download and install the Broadcom Wireless driver to here (ver 5.60.350.11 for 32/64-bit Win7).

It should work because the hardware of your wireless card ID is included in it.

Pavilion dv7 keyboard problem

Product name: Pavilion dv7

Product number: QG703EA #B1A

Recently bought, that IMO has a problem which is probably a BIOS-solvable one. There is a setting in the BIOS, named "Mode of Action keys", which:

-If you select 'Off', action keys function as a normal function (F1-F12) keys without the need for "Fn" be in a hurry.

-When set to "Enabled", action keys work like the keys action and in one wishes to operate normally the function keys (F1 to F12), you have to press "Fn".

However, this setting does not apply to the "Ins" key Regardless of the parameter "Action keys Mode", "Ins" requires always 'Fn' be in a hurry, something that is not acceptable for everyday use.

IMO, it's most of the time an arrangement which will be set to 'Disabled' because when you work on a computer, most of the time we have to function keys to work as not as action keys and function keys. Keep in mind that it's a computer, not an mp3 player, so we want to quickly access the keys F1 to F12 and Ins, no controls brightness and PrintScreen.

If anyone from HP support sees this message, please pass this issue as a bug report to the appropriate support team.

Thank you

Quote from an employee of HP

"It's as expected.

in other words, it is not a bug but was intended to operate in this way.

HP Pavilion dv7 6053er: problem with AMD graphics card.

Hello. My name is Andriy. I use the HP Pavilion dv7 6053er of 2011 with win 7. I have updated my OS to win 10 in August 2015 and everything was good, but in September, I found a problem that I can't solve.

As you know this laptop has two cards which ATI RADEON 6770 m video and its does not work. For example, in the Device Manager there are two cards:

1 AMD Radeon HD 6700 M series

2 Intel HD Graphics 3000

In AMD Catalyst Control Center, I chose in the maximum capacity of all the options, but after I start, for example, Total War: Rome 2 the game see only Intel card. It is the same with windows I can't change the brightness using hotkeys (FN + F2 or F3). Keyboard shortcuts work because I can switch the WiFi, increase/decrease the volume and others.

That's why I even reinstall AMD Catalyst Control Center, but it does not help.

If someone knows how to fix this please help me.

I have a solution:

It was necesery to delet all software AMD and once mor reinstal AMD Catalyst Control Center after I did this all starts to work normally.

Pavilion dv7-4180us: dv7-4180us wifi upgrade

My dv7-4180us has a Broadcom Minipci wifi card bgn and gets only 72 Mbps on my home network. I am running agn + ac on my network. I understand that the wifi options are limited by the white list in the BIOS. I've probably lap by going with a USB adapter, but I would have preferred an intern. I have a Dell E6500 with Intel Centrino 5100 card that connects to 150-200 Mbit/s and I would be happy with this speed on the dv7. Which wifi compatible cards for my dv7 will give you the best performance of wifi? I was going to get the Intel Centrino 1000, but it tops out at 150 Mbps, which is also claimed max for the Broadcom card I already have.

In fact, my computer BIOS is dated in 2011.

Looks like my best bet is one of them:

Intel Centrino 1000 802.11b/g/n WLAN module 593530-001

4322 Broadcom 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN module 582564-001

The two are alleged to be 802.11n MIMO 1 x 2 with connection speed up to 300 Mbps.

I just bought the Intel 1000 for $6.00 + free shipping. DV7-4000 series system a traction. Even if this does not work I am not much.

Thanks for the reply.

World wide phone holder

I understand that if you remove your battery, you can't boot up your laptop. This is not unusual. some laptops are set up in this way.

I understand that when you have the phone connected and charge the batteries of your performance is lowered. There is more than one draw powere when it loads to the battery.

Here is a link to the laptops HP - test and calibrate the battery (Windows 7) to ensure that there is no problem with the battery.

Could also remove the battery once you put under tension.

You asked questions on the use of a 90-Watt adapter. Here is a link to HP G4 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service of Guide. Chapter 3 page 32 lists not one that is recommended.

Good luck!

Before installing this software, that you must have installed at least a MediaSmart package software. The best choice will be in my opinion:

MediaSmart DVD here (version 4.1.4328 for 32/64-bit Win7)

If you do not use any additional software you can use another product that is:

Here is YouTube video that shows what can be done with the 3VRX software.

How can I find my model number or product number?

On this particular model that Windows 8 is not supported by HP so they do not list the drivers updated for it.

You did all your Windows updates?

You use the same Ethernet cable that worked with the other computer?

Have you ran the Windows troubleshooting tool?
