HP Pavilion: help

Turning on my laptop I get the message "device boot not found please install an operating system on your hard drive.

I've never had any problems before, and it won't do anything.

Can anyone help please?

Thank you

Jane

Hi Janebeth,

This message could mean that the hard drive has failed. Otherwise it would need to be replaced for the device works.

You can check if the hard disk has failed by turning off the unit, turn it back on and quickly pressing F10 as it starts to load the BIOS screen. When you get to the screen, go to Diagnostics and run the test on the memory and hard drive. Let me know what brought this test.

I hope this post helps. Please let me know what you learn.

  • Graphic/video card [REPLACEMENT / UPGRADE] on the desktop HP Pavilion - help

    I have the following:

    Desktop HP Pavilion Elite m9152p

    Upgrade to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (updated 11/2009)

    The video card seems to have gone out and tried the following:

    Operating system reinstallation

    Uninstalled & drivers Reinstalled & restoration

    Before attempts above, no changes had been made to software or hardware only led to the same result: the video seems to be fine, and then it crashes and hangs and doesn't eventually having a hard reboot how, the computer loads the integrated video/graphic card.

    I need to buy a replacement video/graphics card, but I'm not sure what card I need to be aware of, or that my computer can handle as a replacement and maybe a possible upgrade (not necessary) - any help in this regard would be most appreciated.

    Thank you!

    I think it's a good choice.

    The comments seem positive most of the time that the fan seems to be quiet.

    I don't know if your previous card had HDMI.

    When you install your new video card, it can disable your sound system because of the HDMI audio chip on the video card.

    If you do not lose your integrated audio system, after you install the video drivers, reboot the machine, go into BIOS, find the onboard audio setting. It can be set to Auto or disabled. Change the setting to "Enabled". Save the configuration when you have made the change and again when you exit the BIOS.

    Upon restart, you will have your on-board audio back.

    Impatience back on your part.

  • Laptop Pavilion: help - Qualcomm adapter WIFI Atheros and incompatibility with the modem

    I bought a new laptop and can't seem to connect to WIFI at home and have dealt with many parts to get resolved nothing doesn't. Here is some key information:

    (a) laptop can connect via Ethernet to the modem Vodafone (the model is HG556a)

    (b) laptop can connect outside the House on another WIFI network

    (c) other PC and the device at home working on WIFI

    (d) the WIFI network adapter is Qualcomm Atherros QCA9565 802.1b/g/n

    The laptop detects the network, and I am asked to enter the key and it trys and advise network not available at this time.

    I looked to see if the adapter works fine in Device Manager (and assumed all good). There is no upgrade is recommended

    With advice from HP support I was through many loops, tests, and trials, restart modems, etc., included in the present was check it on the site of HP on the recommended drivers/updates, and downloaded a new driver

    Qualcomm-Atheros QCA9000 adapter, however it is not visible in the device only Manager downloads, not sure how truly "replace" the driver to see if I have better luck.

    Thankful the help of this forum

    The problem is resolved. Got back to my broadband provider and they change the setting of the channel from 11 to 1, and this has solved the problem.

    I downloaded a soft music that says Norton were safe, but the minute I opened it, my computer froze. So I restarted and it will allow me to connect but then just goes to a black screen with the mouse. What should I do?

    Hello

    Try the following.

    Boot the computer normally and log.

    Black screen, old the ctrl and alt keys and press delete.

    Select Task Manager.

    Click on file and select the new task.

    Type rstrui - also enter a tick in the box for "create this task with administrative privileges" - and click on Ok.

    When the system restore interface is loaded, choose a restore point at least 48 hours before the music app was installed and then proceed to the system restore.

  • SimplePass 2011

    When I got the HP dm4 pavilion helped me disable simplepass2011.  Now, it started working and do not have my fingerprint.  I can't turn it off permanently.  If I use uninstall it warns me that it will remove all passwords, etc.  How can I get this program off my laptop?

    Hello

    Avoid any problem of uninstalling the app Simplepass from your PC if you are not going to use it anyway.

    When he asks that it will remove all of the passwords, it means that if you used the simplepass application to save youe connections logings or applications from website - all those who will be deleted and vandalized. You can still use these applications or Web pages by keyin IDs etc. manually. This does not change the windows login passoword etc, you will be able to connect without any problems and to use the PC as a non Simplepass PC.

    Good luck!!!

Just to note that I have already updated the 8 GB ram.

    @TomM123, welcome to the forum.

    It is clear from your processor and memory are fine.  I suggest that you upgrade to at least a 750Ti GTXvideo card.  Read the reviews to see what users have to say about it.

    You may need to upgrade the power supply (PSU), also.  The EVGA 750Ti said it will work with a power supply with 300W.  However, most of the members have reported needing at least 400W.  If you replace the power supply, I love the Corsair products.  A modular power supply is best for medium-sized business.  It allows you to use only the cables than absolutely necessary.  I recommend at least 500W.  This will give you a high power for the maximum level of use.

    A final element that will make a major difference is an SSD.  I love Samsung SSD.  They seem to move better without the need to change the BIOS settings.  The only need is to make sure that the BIOS is set to AHCI.  The DSS will not work if it is not setup in this way.
