• BK168AA: HP Pavilion p6404y Desktop PC

  I scoured Internet only to find no real solution for my problem.  My computer will only start in the HP splash screen. When executing the key F9 Diagnostics appeared an error: BIOHD-2 error code.  This code means something different depending on who you ask or when you get your information. I replaced the HD, results end up the same way - Splash Screen only. I tried to buy a recovery CD since I do not think to make one and was informed by HP that the disk was no longer available, because my PC is more than 6 years old.  I would appreciate some advice on how to move forward with my computer or if someone could tell me where I could buy a recovery CD.

  Hello:

  I think that you would raise a lot of money after bad by Purchasing recovery disks.

  Yes, normally the BIOHD-2 error means that the hard drive has failed, but in your model that has card mother Violet6-GL8E, this means that the drive controller on the motherboard has failed.

  Must be a very common problem, because there are dozens of members of the forum who have HP PC with this motherboard model.

  You can do a search in the forum keywords: M2N78-(Violet6) and find all the tales of woe.

  Here are a few to get you started...

  To resolve the problem, you will need to replace the motherboard.

  A few people tried to buy a disk controller sata PCI-e x 1 hard, but I don't think anyone got those to work.

  If you decide to replace the motherboard (which I don't recommend) and wish to purchase recovery discs, you can still get this provider no HP.

• Hard drive data from the sector error on desktop HP Pavilion magnesium grey Edition p6404y

  I have a HP Pavilion p6404y desktop computer. I uninstalled and reinstalled the HP Support Assistant. When I run the wizard it tells me this - "WDC WD10 EADS-65M2B1 CMSS Disk Device-4 errors in data sectors make unusable sector." He suggested I have a scanner. If I run the quick scan, it ends and shows just as fine. If I run a full scan, it reaches 62% complete (i.e. 99% of the "left foot" criterion) and seems to freeze. I left alone for two hours to get that last percent of this test, then I just give up and cancel, so I was not able to complete a full scan.

  Also, often, when I start my computer first, I get a screen that says: "one of your disks should be checked for consistency.

  Then, he turns his thing and says it is finished and then starts.

  It seems to be very slow all the time, too.

  I also, lately, get a box saying my performance is slow, I want to move from Windows Aero to Windows basic to help performance.

  So I wonder, my hard drive takes a dump, or what? This system is only two years old.

  Thank you!

  Hi techrex, I would say by restarting and pressing F9 to enter the Diagnostics screen and run diagnostics on your HARD drive.  If you get an error I'd say calling HP support to see what they suggest - could be that your HARD drive is on its way.

  If this is the case, immediately save all your work, photos, emails, etc..  Make your recovery DVD (press F11 at startup and have up to 4 ready virgins of DVD quality to make your recovery disks.

  If you need to replace the HARD drive yourself, it will be easy to recover the PC with your recovery discs.

  Remember: use esd protection and always disconnect your PC from the network if you plan to open the chassis and replace the HARD drive or perform another task on your PC, like blowing any dust with a can of compressed air.

  I would like to know if this suggestion helps.

• Compatibility of proc error

  I currently have a desktop computer HP P6404y with a Phenom II X 4 820 running Windows 7 64 bit Edition home premium.

  My system was either not boot the operating system when I try and run a game or sit on it too long and have several things open the system will crash. I ran a diagnostic on the system and the hardware/software is says Core 2-3-4 of my proc lost symmetry, which explains why it stops randomly.

  I checked the specifications of the motherboard (M2N78 - THE Violet6) and it has a socket AM3 and is supported by the Phenom II X 4 9XX series processor. I bought a Phenom II X 4 965, which is a compatible AM3 processor, but when I put it in I immediately get an error saying the processor is not compatible. I called AMD and they confirmed that it should work, but there is a certain type of thing with the BIOS that allows to not work and they thought that HP had a fix. I couldn't find something that helps me this online and I have upgraded the BIOS to 5.16, but I did Exchange yet because I don't see anything in the update that said fixed compatibility.

  I called HP and they said apparently they have fertile procs that you can get through them, which makes no sense to me, but if it's true it's true I guess that.

  Is it possible that I can get the proc that I have to work with this computer? Thanks in advance.

  Here are the specifications of your HP Pavilion p6404y desktop computer and its card mother M2N78-(Violet6). According to the specifications, the following processors are supported;

  This motherboard supports only the AM3 processors

  AMD Phenom II X 4 9xx/9xxe/8xx Quad-Core (Deneb)

  AMD Phenom II X 3 Triple-Core (Heka) 7xx/7xxe

  AMD Phenom II X 2 5xx (Callisto)

  AMD Athlon II X 4 6xx/6xxe (undactylopodite)

  AMD Athlon II X 3 4xx/4xxe (Rana)

  AMD Athlon II X 2 2xx/2xxe (Regor)

  At the same time, I think the specs, said a maximum TDP of 95 watts but I could be wrong. In this case the maximum TDP would probably 125 watts. Based on the site Web of AMD, there are only two AMD Phenom II X 4 965 CPU. One is rated at 125 watts and the other is 140 Watts. Both are 'Black Edition' CPU, which means they have an unlocked clock multiplier and are designed to be overclocked. Very little HP computers have options overclocking and yours is not one of them.

  The AMD Phenom II X 4 965 CPU is probably incompatible with your computer p6404y HP because of that;

  (a) it exceeds the maximum. PDT to the motherboard

  and / or

  (b) there is a "Black Edition" CPU

  Please consider buying one of these 95 watt AMD Phenom II X 4 processors compatibility assured.

• I'm running Windows 7 on a HP Pavilion model p6404y.

  I bought a flash drive, but don't know how to save modules to it. If you are familiar with the HP Support Assistant may

  you've seen the tip about making this kind of "backup."

  Larry, welcome to the forum.

  I suggest using a backup utility Windows: Start / Control Panel / backup and restore / backup / backup Setup.  This should give you options to use for the backup.  If the Flash Player is installed, it should be one of the options.

  You will also have an option to "create a system image.

• 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.

• Pavilion dv8: problem with Pavilion dv8 (treble/bass control) Windows 10

  I had my Pavilion dv8 for awhile.  I started having problems with the slider treble/bass control. He would sporadically pop-up and begin to change the treble or bass at irregular intervals. 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. But there is no driver for Windows 10. Someone at - it solutions?

• 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!

• Pavilion 500-336: updated drivers audio HP Pavilion 500-336

  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

  Jason

  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.
