HP Pavilion dv8t-1000 CTO Notebook

I have the laptop with a GB HDD 7200 RPM SATA 500 that I try to resurrect by installing an SSD.

Before that, I need to know how to determine which version of the SATA this product currently supports. No sense in buying an SSD that is a newer version of SATA than the system can take advantage o, even if the SATA versions are retro-compatible.

I looked everywhere in the HP and Intel web sites, and they make it difficult or impossible to answer this simple question.

Information system MS do not return level SATA, nor does nothing from HP or Intel.

Any ideas?

Thank you! Just the answer I needed.

  • WiFi on/off button and indicator acute/severe problems in HP Pavilion dv8t-1000 CTO

    I bought a HP Pavilion dv8t-1000 CTO in December.  Within a month, a hard drive has failed and another was provided under the guarantee.

    But now there are new problems. First of all, the Treble/Bass indicator keeps popping up without reason and the bar keeps increase or decrease. Then there is the problem of Wifi. It seems that my Wifi continues to go without reason. I thought that the two issues were linked. But I'm beginning to see that my Wifi turned off only when the laptop is moved. Just the slightest movement will come out, BUT it happens every time the laptop is moved.

    I also noticed that when these problems are occurring, the 'secret' or the Wifi icon on the media smart bar (above the keyboard) will not match the icons on the screen. Twice the mute icon was red in the smart media bar, but the volume was on. Sometimes the Wifi went nuts and off, because of traffic and then the Wifi light turned back to blue on the media smart bar, but wifi is always off.

    Once both the 'secret' and wifi in the smart bar icons does not match what it says on the screen. WiFi is turned off, but the icon was blue. The speakers were on, but the silent icon was red. I activated the wifi back and the mute icon on the awesome bar, went from red to white.

    I am Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit slot.

    Any thoughts? Ideas? I really need to fix this problem because the Wifi problem that happens at least 20 times a day.

  • HP Pavilion dv8t-1000 CTO: treble/bass indicator keeps popping up on

    Just moved HP Pavilion dv8t-1000 CTO and the treble/bass indicator keeps popping up with no set position - required bar increase or decrease. Very annoying. Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Jeff

    Hi all

    I sent the compuer back and detailed the litany of problems. He was returned about three weeks ago and worked fine. I didn't report again just in case something turned up. Also, I hope I have this jinx not to realize that everything is ok.

    The form returns with the laptop has enabled (reconfigured) hard drive, an extra box indicating the update of the BIOS and verified where keyboard technology has added 'Restraint' in the keyboard area. I suspect that it has something to do with the bass/trebl command.

    • No more noisy fan (when it turns cool it is very quiet).
    • No more wild and crazy popup Treble/Bass
    • Wireless begins to backup on the awakening from the sleep (one of the techs told me that the wireless was not supposed to return during the restart of sleep.)

    Later,.

  • Pavilion dv8t-1000 CTO: 64-bit compatibility win 10

    After upgrade to Windows 7 to win 10 HP Advisor issues a message at the start that it has stopped working. cannot be started manually. Why this is happening and how to fix it if possible.

    Wordpainter

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    I really wish I had some good news for you, but I did not...

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the problem you face is that Microsoft provides only pilots with the most basic features and what you really need for these features is the specialized drivers written for the specific in your HP PC hardware - and unfortunately, there is no driver HP Win10 for your PC. HP only guarantees the compatibility of Win10 for machines manufactured after August 2013. HP is not no matter what timetable indicating when, or IF, they will produce drivers for older machines.

    This means that your PC is probably NEVER going to be fully functional under Win10 because the drivers he needs for these features simply do not exist!

    To restore all the features, you will need to do a reset to factory using HP recovery media to its original operating system pre-installed.

    Good luck

  • 2nd hard drive for HP Pavilion dv7t-4000 CTO Notebook - what do I need?

    Hi, I have the HP Pavilion dv7t-4000 CTO Select Edition Entertainment Notebook (product # WV703AV). It can accommodate two hard disks but only came with one. What would need to be able to install the second hard drive? I need just a connecting cable or I also need to caddy or kit?

    Also, would I get a solid state? My laptop that would support or should I just use regular?

    Currently, I am on Windows 7 64-bit. I have a 500 GB hd (which came to be partitioned with hp tools/restoration).

    Help with what I would need to a conventional hard drive or ssd would be greatly appreciated. I tried to look through messages of others first, but could not find anything specific to my model. Thanks for your time!

    Hello:

    The only place I know where you can get a 2nd hard drive kit is that provider.

    http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?Main_Page=product_info&products_id=345

    Your laptop should be able to work with an SSD, but I can't guarantee it.

    I don't really see any point in adding an SSD unless you make the main hard drive, and to do this, you must get an SSD of the same size as the original 500 GB hard drive to use the recovery discs to reinstall the operating system.

    Most people get smaller SSD and they use the W7 product key to activate a simple installation of W7.

    If you can read all 25 characters of your product key for windows 7, you can do your own installation media and allows to install Windows on a smaller than 500 GB SSD.

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. The link below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://download.CNET.com/Windows-7-USB-DVD-download-tool/3000-18513_4-10972600.html

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

    Hello

    Standard Portable SSD will perfectly fit the standard of the computer laptop HARD drive. Many SDS are now thinner, but sellers will provide a piece of plastic to make them thicker.

    Yes, you can move on to larger capacity. 500 GB is a sweet spot. Now, they are much cheaper. Many vendors autour but only use popular suppliers. I have no luck with few suppliers, their products work by some reasons. I know that Samsung, Sandisk, SSD Crucial work on my machines.

  • HP ENVY 14-1000 CTO Notebook: fact ENVY 14 t - 1000 CTO (2010) have UEFI firmware?

    This model (from worms 2010) he UEFI firmware? I don't see any indication that it made, with Windows, information system, the Mode "BIOS" is "legacy". I do not see switches to BIOS legacy in BIOS emulation is set up.

    But this would be the case of paranoia, that there no UEFI firmware, but I did it is legacy emulation mode continuously or something?

    Confusingly, the Web site offers an enigmatic named "HP update BIOS UEFI." Just an update (which I was not able to install) it changes from one thing to another?

    It was an interesting experience.

    He was able to start the "HP PC Hardware Diagnostics (UEFI)," How about that?

    So, the answer is that it can start binary EFI, but there must be another reason that my operating system is not booting in this way.

    You are the very welcome.

    They were on the support page for your model, so they are not hidden.

    You just know what drivers to install devices.

    I do not think that HP has any software to monitor time CPU.
