• HP Pavilion dv4 stops unexpectedly

  Hey there,

  I have a Hp Pavilion dv4 Notebook PC I bought half a year ago. A couple of days, while I was working on my computer it unexpectedly closes. At first I thought it was because my computer was out of battery because when I turned it on, there was no charge inside. However, two days later it stopped again and when I turned it back on it still had about 21 percent of power left. I don't really know what could be the problem. I did a scan of the computer, health analysis and tested my battery as well and they were all aware.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Hello

  After that recovery of a judgment of my computer did a startup repair and concluded, there was a battery problem. I did a BIOS upgrade and THEN a battery check and my results showed that I had to replace my battery. So I did exactly that.

  Thanks for your time!

• Pavilion dv7: Pavilion dv7 stops randomly

  I have a somewhat old Pavilion and begins 3 days ago, it began to stop randomly. The average time it works is about 5 minutes. I thought it was because it was overheating, so I had cleaned the vents, am a pad cooling and try see if she resist longer in an air-conditioned room, but she always stops.

  Is there anything else I can do if it is still hot?

  Far beyond cleaning and her reapply thermal paste there is not much but I raise the back side of the laptop and try that and see if the thermal overload is lower if that's the case, then, it would be the fix, that you use to keep it from overheating. And if you sell the computer based AMD mobile processor and get a processor iNtel based they do better in temperature as opposed to AMD processors and will cost more but more value.

• Speakers have stopped working on Pavilion DV7

  Hello

  Please can someone help.  I just noticed that my external speakers on my laptop to 6c52ea Pavilion DV7 stopped working. I still don't have sound when I use it (I don't have any notification or launch sounds) so I do not know when they were working last ok. I have checked various settings and can see that the sound comes from headset simply not the "external" speaker  I fear I am a novice, so can't really give you much of a clue, but I made sure that the volume is high enough and not cut etc.

  Following the advice of someone else, I removed the battery and held the power button for 30 seconds to see if the speakers themselves sorted after the reboot, but this did not help.

  I would be grateful for some advice please, thank you very much.

  Hello

  Try the following.

  Download IDT Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp58001-58500/sp58226.exe

  One time finished, open windows control panel, open Device Manager and open sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the IDT device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box allow this and then proceed to uninstall.

  When you're done, shut down the laptop, unplug the AC adapter and then remove the battery.  Press and hold the Power button for 30 seconds.  Reinsert the battery and plug in the AC adapter.

  Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the default values (sometimes it's f9, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER.  Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.

  Allow Windows to fully - charge it will automatically load an audio driver, but let just this complete.  Then open your download folder, right-click on the IDT Installer and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once this done, do a right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select playback devices.  'Speakers and headphones' left click once to highlight, and then click the Set Default button - check if you now audio.

  Kind regards

• Pavilion dv7: DVD not to be read in the drive.

  No reason apparent that my HP Pavilion dv7 stopped reading DVD, it worked one day, the next whirred just and nothing. There seems to be no mention of the 'computer' drive that says "Devices with removable storage" etc, either. There is no error message and I don't think that I have accidentally can I do something for this set.

  We have the complete model number, please? Can it read CDs? Sometimes one of the lasers is bad and the drive must be replaced. It can also be a software problem, but a way to quickly check is to try to boot from a bootable DVD as a Windows install disc or HP recovery disk. If it is unable to boot from DVD it means it's a hardware problem. Replacement disks are low-cost, perhaps $35 or more and super easy to replace. Generally a screw must be removed from the slipped disc and the IPLs of replacement in, live replaced.

  Post back with the model number and identify the country you live and plastics color laptop and we can help you further.

• Pavilion dv7-4080us: reminder of hp power cable

  In announcement regarding August 26, 2014 of a recall program on the cords power supply for HP Laptops:

  August 7, 2014, my PC Pavilion dv7 stopped working and I took it to Best Buy, where the problem resulted in a bad cord.  I bought a spare for $58,84 power cord at this time.

  In December, I received an email from Hewlett-Packard communicate me of the recall program.

  I called the telephone number explaining that I wanted to get a refund for my power cord, because I had been forced to buy a power cord prior to notification of the publication.

  After having been approved around Department to Department and seen a few different numbers to call - with no satisfaction, I turned on this forum for help.

  It is true that I am just stuck?  Even if my power cord was really faulty, because I needed my power cord until HP Announces I want just the cost to cover me?

  Someone on this forum had this experience?

  The callback is made to the cord that goes from the brick on the wall.

• Pavilion DV7: USB Ports not working not

  The usb ports on my pavilion dv7 stopped working.  In doing research I think it has something to do with the drivers, but being not not 100% technical, I'm not entirely sure how to solve this problem.  Could you please help me solve because I use quite often the usb ports as well as to synchronize my phone etc.

  Thank you.

  Hi @laci2013 ,

  Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

  I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook and issues with the USB ports on 10 newly installed Windows. Here is a link to solve the USB connections.

  I would like to uninstall all listed in the universal serial bus controllers list.

  Please note remove any and all USB devices and remove the memory card in the slot of the card reader. Disconnect all non-essential devices before you uninstall the controller Universal serial bus.

  Restart your computer, and then insert the USB device.

  You can try to use the Windows Update Troubleshooter to fix updates that do not come through Windows 10.  Please restart the laptop twice to make sure that all updates are completed!

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you.

• HP Pavilion dv7 button walk / stop does not

  Hi, I recently had my Hp Pavilion dv7-1245dx Entertainment Notebook (to the best of my knowledge bc, I can't look it up in my product number) fixed some viruses and malware that caused random stops and freezes. My laptop worked fine after that the fix so I installed the latest updates to better protect my laptop but when I left and my laptop came into fashion 'sleep' it would not respond and the screen was black. I stopped using the power button and it turned back. The computer does not start and the flash caps lock button three times which means a problem of memory, according to HP support, that happened before I got my laptop fixed. Later, I unplugged the AC adapter and moved my laptop but when I tried to put it on the power button does not respond and I can't do anything with my laptop. Both recommended options for the issue of cap locks and the power button is to go inside my laptop and tinkering with the battery and the memory module. I'm very hesitant to do so for fear of further harm to my laptop. I am on Windows 7 and advice on what I should do would be greatly appreciated. (will give you more information if necessary)

  With respect,

  ACertainGuy

  Your notebokdoes have removable covers for the module of memory in the bottom of the laptop. It's just as shown in the document I linked.

  You will need to buy a Jewelers screwdriver set.  A jewellers Phillips scredriver is necessary.

  Here is a link to a documentthat explains the flashing LED error codes and what they mean.

  The only other option, if you do not have enough confidence to do it yourself, is to take your laptop in a shop that will do it for you.

  Best regards

• Cool fan has stopped working - laptop HP Pavilion dv7-6c95dx

  The colling fan has stopped working properly. After research, I learned that it is a COMMON problem for this laptop in particular. Of course my warranty just expired 2 months ago... so...

• HP Pavilion dv7 6b51ea: GPU stuck at Intel, AMD GPU has stopped working

  A year ago, I received a notification of the CCC AMD the driver update and did. Since then, the 7400 m has stopped working and still did not so after;

  (a) rolling back drivers

  (b) reinstall the drivers from the HP website

  (c) using the system to factory settings restore

  After some research I found that the discrete GPU in HP laptops only works with the drivers offered by HP, but those who fail to solve the problem of too.

  I put Powerplay use Max Performance and even tried to disable ULPS, which of course failed because the system is locked ' dynamic single setting.

  Active power plan still shows as powerful, but it's the GPU integrated in use, not dedicated

  Also recently upgraded to Windows 10, had no problems but GPU problem remains

  AMD Catalyst Control Center poster always I have 7400M and hardware of MSI Afterburner monitoring shows his temperature to 45 c but 0% use of the GPU.

  When running games that allowed, with Powerplay can jump on the 7400 M, still work on the weak integrated Intel graphics.

  HP Support Assistant cannot detect all problems, troubleshooting

  HP Pavilion dv7-6b51ea

  Appreciate the help.

  Thanks for your help, very much appreciated a response.

  Assuming that I am in a bind.

  HP should not make laptops for gamers or those who buy specifically for the use of the dedicated GPU, if they cannot upgrade their GPU drivers dedicated by the manufacturer of this GPU IMO.

  Sister with a DV6 bought with my DV7 (2012) was lucky, I tried the update before she accepted AMD update notification

  Guess I will gift to a parent who does not require the dedicated GPU and I'll have to make sure my next laptop supports the amd/nvidia driver unlike HP updates of course

• Pavilion dv7 programs closing and opening at random, computer stops randomly

  I have a Pavilion dv7-6154ea running on Windows 7. I've had it for a year and a half now and I just encountered this problem (it started a few days ago).

  The problem is that some programs or files are opening and closing by themselves, randomly without doing me anything. Sometimes even whole computer stops himself. And it's not as if it crashes, it just closes programs in the usual way or stops normally (without any problem).

  I scanned the entire computer for viruses and it is clean. If the problem seems not be caused by a virus.

  One thing that I was doing at the same time when this problem occurred is switchable graphics mode in the BIOS change, dynamics on fixed, by following the steps in this link to The switchable Graphics Mode

  I have a built-in Intel GPU (that to speed up performance) and an AMD Radeon HD 6490 M GPU (that of better graphics) and I wanted to run the PC on the AMD because I think that the dynamic mode has not changed the GPU when I needded, for example for video games.

  However, after a day of opening/closing by themselves programs, I decided to return to dynamic mode, and nothing has changed, so maybe it's also not the cause of the problem.

  In any case, it seems too convenient that the problem happened right after I introduced the Switchable graphics in the BIOS mode, if I don't think it's a coincidence.

  Can someone help me? It becomes very awkward to have a program that I use at the moment of the computer closa.

  Thank you

  sthri,

  It doesn't sound like it's a virus, but it could also be the keyboard.

  Go to start

  Type ease.

  Press enter

  Go to the bottom and click, facilitate the use of the keyboard.

  Check all the boxes and click OK.

  The keyboard will not work, but move and open programs as you normally use the computer and see if you get any errors.

  It is a shot in the water.

  By clicking on the White Star congratulations on the left is a way of saying thanks!

  I would like to know how everything goes.

  Nice day.

• Pavilion dv7-3020sa, buttons on the top have stopped working.

  Pavilion dv7-3020sa, Windows 7 family (64)

  The buttons that control the mute, volume, DVD and WiFi stopped working. This is probably due to a pilot to be deleted, as I recently suffered a minor but annoying virus.

  I can't find any reference to drivers of these useful function keys. Someone has any idea how to work again.

  Thank you

  It is ok... You can try a step if it may seem very simple, but repeatedly worked to solve this problem... "' Hard Reset '... Proceed exactly as it says and check if it works...

  Hard Reset allows you to solve problems of software and hardware

• his Pavilion dv7-6b55dx suddenly stopped working

  the sound on my Pavilion dv7-6b55dx has suddenly stopped working. External speakers work not at all and has failed the test tone. The headset works sometimes - for ex: I can play the same youtube video and audio work once and then again not at all.

  HP support system had run the updates from the previous night (I turned off computer later) so I wonder if this could be a problem?

  have audio beats and OS is Windows 7.

  Thanks for any help.

  Click on the link below. Enter your product number as that indicated on the Service tag on the bottom of the laptop (can be under the battery). You can also get the product number by pressing Fn + ESC key. After you enter the PN, click Next, then choose the software & Drivers.On the next page use the menu drop down to select your (probably Windows 7 64-bit) operating system. A list will fill with the drivers. Download & save the last Audio driver.

  I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion dv7-1245dx Entertainment Notebook and problems with the WiFi doesn't work does not correctly.

  Some say that you could restore the BIOS using factory default values with this. Here is a document that shows you how to restore the default BIOS settings. In this way, it will look at the hardware installed on your laptop.

  You can try to use theWindows Update Troubleshooter to fix updates that do not come through Windows.  Please restart the laptop twice to make sure that all updates are completed!

  Please let me know how it goes.
