HP Pavilion G6-2300sy

Hello.

A few months ago, I bought a HP Pavilion 2300sy G6, and it plays very well. However, I do not like the new OS W8 and would willingly downgrade to W7, but the first time I tried to do, I realized that there is no drivers for my laptop for W7, but I recently read a post where there is a possibility to use other drivers for HP laptop which work very well.

So basically what I'm asking is - is it possible to downgrade to W7 on a 2300sy? I have AMD switchable graphics card, which was one of the reasons why I had little fear of decommissioning. Thank you!

Hello:

First make your W8 recovery media set before installing W7 x 64.

So if there is a problem (which shouldn't exist), then you have your lifejacket.

http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03481733

Then, you must change a setting in the BIOS to be able to install and run W7 on your laptop.

http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03736054

After graduating W7 x 64 installed, all the drivers and software for this model will work also on yours.

You only install the AMD graphics driver, which installs two drivers for AMD and Intel graphics cards.

Never try to install or update the Intel graphics driver or allow Windows Update to install an Intel graphics driver.

  • Need help with Windows 7 drivers for Radeon HD 7670 m on a preinstalled Windows Pavilion g6-2300sy 8

    Hey, I recently bought a HP Pavilion g6-2300sy with Windows preinstalled 8 and decided to install Windows 7 on it instead, as I'm rates more familiar with it. Now I seem to be running into issues with the Radeon HD 7670 m laptop graphics card, since I can't find a driver that works for her. I tried several generic drivers AMD HD 7000 series, but none of them is not working - Windows continues to give the error code 43.

    How can I fix without going back to Windows 8? Any help would be really appreciated.

    Hello:

    For the g6-2300sy, use the W7 x 64 drivers and software for this model:

    For the graphics, you install only the AMD graphics driver. Do NOT install the Intel driver.  The AMD driver has the graphics for two video cards.

  • iTunes does not recognize my iPhone on my HP Pavilion Windows 10 5s, so cannot sync the phone, which has the latest operating system running

    iTunes does not recognize my iPhone on my HP Pavilion Windows 10 5s, so cannot sync the phone running. I downloaded the latest OS for the phone and the latest version of iTunes on my PC and have tried all USB ports several times. I also reinstalled drivers USB to the PC.  The phone is recognized on the computer of a friend under Win 7. All shows when I plug it on mine is a page showing the 'Apple iPhone' folder display of storage internal (2.18 GB free of 14.7 GB). Troubleshooting in devices and printers, where the phone displays as "Not specified Apple iPhone" generates a message saying that "Apple iPhone is an older USB device and may not work with USB 3.0 and plug it into a USB 2.0 port." But when I use USB 2.0 (I tried several times using each of the three USB ports on my PC), troubleshooting the error message says "Apple iPhone won't work correctly with USB 3.0." This seems to be a recent problem, since in March 2016, I could spend a few songs from my PC to my phone using iTunes.

    I wish I had some ideas of people who have experienced this problem, I find to be a more frustrating one.

    Well, you aren't the only one. This just freakin happened to me. I spent the last three hours with apple and Windows supports. Now I'm reinstalling Windows 10 by last resort of Windows support councils. I got the same message USB. In iTunes, under devices something removed my 5s and the iPad. But it remains 6 s wife. I tried my computers 2-(SS) 3.0 ports and 1 port 2.0 ordinary. I tried all four thinners cables I have. I will let you know the result of the Windows reinstall.

  • HP Pavilion dv7: unable to connect to the Internet

    I can't access the Internet via ethernet or wireless. It seemed to happen after an update of Windows 10.

    Other computer and android phone can access the wireless. When I click on the wireless icon, I see different networks, including mine. However, it is said, "No Internet, secure." I ran a diagnosis, saying that the wireless network adapter and the wired network adapter does not work. I tried to update the drivers, but to no avail.

    I remove this update. I have HP Pavilion dv7, produces none. QJ799AV #ABA. It seems that there are no drivers for Windows 10.

He also unplug randomly my wireless connection. I tried to solve the problem by downloading a driver, but the problem remains. At first, it was just a little annoying, fixed by clicking the mouse or pressing the upper button of the internet, but now it of REALLY boring, popping up even as I write this post.

  • HP Pavilion - 15-ab045sa: a few gestures of precision Touchpad not working not

    Hello

    I'm new to the forum, so I hope I posted in the right place.

    My product: HP Pavilion Notebook - 15-ab045sa (ENERGY STAR)

    I have all the gestures of touchpad usual work (three stroke of finger etc).  However, the recent to THE introduced a new gesture to switch virtual desktops. I was really looking forward to this update, but this gesture does not work! I tried to reinstall the update with erase everything and it still does not work!

    I don't understand why it does not work as I have a touchpad of accuracy and all other gestures of work except this new! Also even if some gestures of work (for example three finger swipe), I don't think that win 10 recognizes the touchpad of precision like under settings of the mouse and Trackpad, what it does not say that I have a touchpad of precision and so does me no options to change what are the gestures, as it should.

    I have the Synaptics TouchPad of SMBus 19.2.11.38 driver (21/07/2016).

    Would really appreciate your help as I was really looking forward to the new gesture switch virtual desktops.

    Thank you.

    Just got an update via windows update Synaptics update to version 19.3.11.37 - it finally allowed me to have the film 4 finger to switch virtual desktops!

    Here's the audio that I have on my computer: IDT 92HD65C

    Looking at the Device Manager, I see that the driver date is 07/11/2013.  Where can I find the updated drivers for this?

    The version of the driver I have right now is 6.10.6496.0

    Is there still a good reason do not update the audio drivers?

    Hello:

    The audio works fine now?

    If so, I would not update the driver.  Many problems with W10 and IDT audio.

    There is an audio driver IDT W10 on your PC support page if the Beats Audio doesn't work properly or not at all.

  • Pavilion AMD A8-6500: graphic upgrade

    Hi all

    My son has a HP Pavilion AMD A8-6500 with Radeon HD 3.50 ghz graphics card.

    It now wants to update as graphic says not good enough.

    What our options are, what is implementing implement as buying a better graphics card or is it more complicated?

    see you soon

    Hi there @Jason1966,

    That the Forums are with you!  I understand that you are looking for advice on upgrading a graphics card.  I'm happy to help you with this.

    Please report the number of complete product from your computer. Check out the following, if you need assistance with this information. HP desktop PC - how can I find my model number, serial number or product?  Once I got that I can give you more in the way of what to look for.

    In general, you should know what types of expansion slots your computer is available. More recent graphics cards will focus you on PCI Express x 16 slots and their willingness to be a version or the generation of these slots.  If the motherboard has only Gen 1.0, and the graphics card is Gen 3.0, then the card would work, but it will run more slowly he would in a slot of Gen 3.0. So you want to look at the capacity of your computer's power supply. A common value is 300 W. Higher end graphics cards will be a requirement of minimum recommended power of 400 W or more, although there are cards with a lower requirement. It is always better to have a power that exceeds the minimum value. Also related to food some graphics cards require extra power of a specific type connections. You must make sure that your diet has these connections available. Then, make sure that the card has drivers for the operating system installed on your computer, and if the card is UEFI, make sure that your system has UEFI.

    If all these parameters are filled between your system and the card, the graphics card should work, but there is never a guarantee, because each computer system is as an individual, once it's in the hands of a user. You may have already installed another device that is in conflict with this card or perhaps a software which does not get her drivers graphics. So long story short, it is not easier to just buy a better card, you need to do some research.

    I hope this helps clarify the issues for you and if you find it helpful and useful, please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.

  • Pavilion dv7t-4000 laptop: AMD HDMI port on the computer laptop dv7 is lost after free trial Win10 returns to Win7 Home Premium edition

    My laptop was purchased in sept 2010 and runs Win7 Home Premium Edition (64-bit).

    It worked perfectly until June 2016, when the trial version free odious Win10 forced itself on my laptop.  I had no choice, I used Win10 for a day or 2 and then discovered that:

    (1) I lost the audio capability, HDMI port, I use to connect to my TV, and

    (2) the Win10 trial enabled me to return on Win7, I did without delay.

    In my Win 7 restored, everything was fine, except when I have her go in Control Panel to configure / reconfigure HDMI as the default, I couldn't - the element used to appear as "AMD HDMI Audio" is no longer displayed.  I remember a message during the free trial period Win10 that says it has disabled any material incompatible.  Without a doubt, Win10 free trial 'killed' this HDMI/device port, at least audio-wise.

    Today, I always run the same Win7, but I can't have audio HDMI on this port.  When I connect to my TV, the video works.  Win7 Device Manager it shows with an exclamation in yellow, and when I right click to get more details, there is a message saying Microsoft:

    Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might be installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or maybe it's a malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52).

    Is there a way to 'get it '?  'this' is AMD HDMI audio.  (and wthout spoil the graphics - that is, video)

    I tried to install the drivers provided by AMD [graphics] and that did not work. The Internet from AMD website says that the audio drivers are included in the package for graphics drivers.  There is also a huge confusion in the way these low level items are named/described: ATI and AMD, because they have merged, were used somewhat interchangeably.  I also tried the graphics drivers AMD HP Support Web site specific to my laptop and it has only gotten worse.

    Thank you for your kind attention.

    Hi @ RTX,

    Awesome response. I read the details and depth of your post. I understand that the bios is updated. So you could end up with this update.

    Happens to the other updates. This will be the order.

    1. Uninstalling the driver Chipset and resettlement.

    2 reinstalling and uninstalling graphics drivers

    3. uninstall the sound drivers and reinstall.

    Before uninstalling, you can try to update the drivers supplied by device also Manager and if that market that will be great. Please, do it only if you don't have already done.

    Before uninstalling please make sure that you capture an image of the complete Device Manager window. Take some pictures of your cell phone. Please note the exact device for audio and video chipset drivers. Then, you will need to uninstall it from the Device Manager and install from the support site in the above order so that there is no confusion.

    If nothing works as a last resort, you may need to restore complete system to factory settings. Please backup your files before doing so. This is possible since the recovery of your computer's hard drive partition.
