HP Pavilion Sleekbook b030el and Windows 7

Product: HP Pavilion Sleekbook b030el

A friend of mine just bought a HP Pavilion Sleekbook b030el
Unfortunately, HP officially supports only Windows 8 for this computer.

I think that Windows 8 is - by far - the worst operating system Microsoft ever released. Worse than Vista. Worse than Millennium Edition, too. Without a doubt. It is completely unusable and useless on something else that a Tablet, and existing operating systems for tablets are by far better than Windows 8 on this kind of devices.

Is there a quick way to know if Pavillion Sleekbook 15 - b030el material is fully supported by Windows 7?
Thank you very much.

You are the very welcome.

There should be a program (app) in the menu of apps everything to make a recovery of the DVD set.

I strongly recommend doing this before doing anything else.

I only know that if you install W7 on the C:\ partition, the Recovery Manager will not work.

I don't know what will happen if you install it anywhere else.

I have no experience there.

I remove each partition on my PC and install the OS on one big partition.

I use recovery disks or partitions. I install a windows disk with an OEM or retail.

With Windows 8, it must be very careful, because there is no product key and used the recovery disc or partition, or they will have to buy a new operating system.

The product key is now integrated into the BIOS, which makes Windows obsolete COA stickers.

  • System Restore suspended at 0% - HP Pavilion Sleekbook 14-b001ea - Windows 7

    Hello

    I bought the Pavilion in 2011, but the OS has become corrupted during the weekend. Performing a system restore. I have the screen of "Restoring the Factory image" and a "tick" against the first 3 options (reformatting of the windows of your disk partition, copy the files needed to restore the hard drive and reinstall the original software"

    However, after more than 12 hours (night on the left), the progress is always showing 0%, and the cursor is a blue rotating circle.

    If I recycle the power that I have no doubt that I will not have a 'C' drive due to the first part of the restoration of the Windows partition but the ideas of formatting?

    Thank you

    The easiest way is to download Microsoft Windows 7 USB\DVD download toolstore. Once you have done this, you will need to download an iso image of the operating system that was originally installed in your sleekbook from there.

    Use the Windows 7 USB\DVD download tool to create a windows usb Installer.

    Connect Windows usb Setup, turn on the sleekbook and immediately press the ESC key. In the start menu, choose boot options, and select Setup from usb as a boot option.

    Select repair your computer.

    Choose the Startup Repair tool

    After clicking on finish, your laptop will reboot and you should be able to start Windows normally again.

  • G6-2231dx Pavilion: Pavilion g6-2231dx and Windows 10 lack of network connections

    Then...  Where are the pilots 10 compatible of Windows for the g6-2231dx Pavilion?  I know that this OS was just launched yesterday, but an excerpt from the developer is available for some time now and any reasonable person would expect a company as big as HP now have their stuff ready for this deployment.

    The latest version of the operating system available on the menu drop-down page downloads & drivers of the g6 is Windows 8.1.  While the Realtek PCIe FE ethernet family and drivers Ralink RT3290 WLAN view and proclaim that they are in perfect working order through the Device Manager, or a connection to the local area network or WLAN connection appear when I opened the section "Manage maps" of the network and sharing Center.

    I've tried so far to solve the problem of the measures:

    Searched in vain for the site of HP compatible drivers, or at least an explanation of why it is not all the drivers available for Windows 10 on my device. By-the-way, there are a lot of dead links on your site.  Did the same to sites Web of Realtek and Mediatek without any result.  Googling has not helped much either.

    Downloaded and installed the latest drivers Windows 8.1, after uninstall of each device (as well as the removal of their files in the system directory) of the Device Manager with a reboot between the two attempts, since the HP website as well as websites of card manufacturers.  No results.

    Updated drivers for each devices via Device Manager and manually that it points to the directory where I extracted the drivers. No results.

    Disabled features, that I had to do to solve the problems with adapters flakey on the latest operating system from Windows to save energy.  No results.

    Rolled back drivers through Device Manager.  No results.

    Uninstalled devices again, tried and then install the drivers in compatibility mode. No results.

    Tried to install the Realtek drivers which claimed to be compatible with Windows 10 that I acquired through the Lenovo Web site. No post no installed errors, but network connections still do not come under the list, while continued to report as work awesomely by Device Manager!

    Editing a registry string by a suggestion in another forum support, but for developers of Windows 10 preview who proposed to change the string of 'dela Jacques = 7' where it was previously set at 5, in my situation.  No results.

    The state icon of connection in the system status bar always has a big, big, red X through it, when I left click on the icon, if waiting to see at least a list of available wireless networks, it is completely empty, with the exception of the option to turn on or turn off the airplane mode (Yes, I made sure it's off).

    It is quite frustrating and I know this isn't quite exclusive fault of HP/Realtek/Mediatek and I'm sure Microsoft has a big had to play in a no-so-finished product, but geeze!  Any help out there?

    MInutes after posting here, I found a solution to the problem of another Web site. This solution is relevant to those who have had a VPN software installed on their system during the upgrade of Windows 10. It may be worth a try, even if you don't have a VPN software installed prior to the upgrade. I followed the instructions below and after you remove both registry key and uninstall the DNI_DNE, the network adpaters Protocol (ethernet or wireless) immediately turned on and connected automatically without having to restart the computer.

    If you have unsupported software VPN installed on Windows 8.1 when you upgrade, you may experience this problem.  We are currently working on a fix.  To check if that's causing your problem of networking:

    1. Click the Start button, then click command prompt (Admin).

    2. Type the following command in the window and press ENTER:

    3. netcfg - s n

  • This will display a list of network protocols, drivers, and services.  Check if DNI_DNE is listed in the output.  If this is the case, this problem applies to you.

  • If DNI_DNE is present in the same command prompt window, type the following commands to solve the problem:

    Reg delete HKCR\CLSID\ {988248f3-a1ad-49bf-9170-676cbbc36ba3} /va /f

    netcfg - v u dni_dne

  • If you receive the error 0 x 80004002 after execution of this correction, or the registry key has not been removed or the key that should be deleted is slightly different.  Open Regedit and navigate to the key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\ {988248f3-a1ad-49bf-9170-676cbbc36ba3}.  Delete it if it still exists. If this is not present and you still not received this error, just reply to the post.  We may contact you to help identify the cause of this error.

  • Slight modification of my original posting. Please remove the ' / going ' from the code as it is does not delete the subkeys, only values. So, if you have dni_dne and tried this fix with an error result, please try this again with the following change in the original post:

    reg delete HKCR\CLSID\ {988248f3-a1ad-49bf-9170-676cbbc36ba3} /f

  • HP Pavilion dv6-6b56er and Windows 7 x 64 Professional

    Hello.

    I bought Pavilion dv6-6b56er with pre installed Win7 x 64 Basic, which is not convenient for me, because of its lack of features. So I made a full backup of the hard disks in the Pavilion and removed all software it. Then I installed Win 7 x 64 Pro and facing difficulties regarding the drivers of USB 3.0. Everything else works fine. I know that HP is not responsible for all of the experiences with the software that is not pre-installed, but I have a few questions.

    First of all, should what driver I install to ports USB 3.0 flag? To the download page, I found three different options:

    1 Renesas.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-99763-1&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en&...

    2 NEC.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-100224-1&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en...

    3 fresco.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-102204-1&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en...

    and

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-100237-1&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en...

    The first two were installed (I mean they CAN be installed), the third - not at all settled. So what is the reason to put it on the download page?

    We're crazy. When you try to install the package with driver NEC, installation master tells you, that it is pilot of Renesas. There therefore no NEC drivers on the download page at all. Why I paid so much attention to it? I installed Everest, so I know what driver is needed. He tells me that I "NEC uPD720200 USB 3.0 Host Controller". Thus, there is no driver available on the download page for NEC chipset and we have NEC chipset inside.

    During this time, Windows Support Center offered some NEC USB 3.0 driver (http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp47501-48000/sp47677.exe ).

    So, who's right?

    The second question. If attempts to connect to the USB 3.0 a compound device (e.g. usb hub), then in "devices and printers" appear strange devices with the label "no data". If Renesas driver has been installed then ' USB 2.0 hub "appeared, and so Windows proposed NEC - then «NEC Electronics USB Hub» The County of strange devices depend on the number of devices connected to this unit composed. It's my main problem - these strange devices.

    So I came to a dead end. Any ideas to fix this?

    Any response will be appreciated.

    PS. Sorry for my bad English.

    The Recovery Manager is indeed on the hard drive. The version that is on the dvd discs doesn't have as many options as the original get the version of the partition.

    If you use recovery factory reset it will install all the original drivers and also recreate the recovery partitions. After finishing of the recover and have restarted the PC, you should be able to use the F11 key to access the hard disk again.

    You will need to reinstall the UEFI utility using the download from the section web software support and drivers under utility-tools. Given the usefulness of UEFI hard disk is a good thing.

  • HP Pavilion G6 2306el and windows 7

    Hi all

    I bought a HP Pavilion G6 2306el that comes with windows 8, and I HATE it! I want to downgrade to windows 7 pro, but I'm not sure if all the required drivers are available. I tried yesterday, but a number of things that LAN driver PCI device drivers were not installed and the pc seemed to be pretty slow makes me think something was still wrong. No idea if this computer is windows 7 compatible? HP Web site shows that it supports windows 8 and ubuntu only. If so, technically, why that?

    Thank you very much

    This means that you have started the Windows installation media by selecting a "source of inherited start" as opposed to a 'source of boot UEFI.

    WARNING *.

    HP does not recommend installing Windows 7 on a computer comes with Windows 8, and it will support the installation of Windows 7. HP doesn't provide drivers for Windows 7 and the appropriate drivers are not available for the hardware in the computer. In addition, Windows 7 can not take in charge some of the hardware or software designed for the computer.

    Make sure you create your media recovery HP or USB Flash Recovery discs before you edit or change anything.

    You should ENABLE 'Secure Boot' and 'Legacy Support' in the 'BIOS Setup boot secured' on the settings below page before you may try to install Windows 7;

    In addition, as the hard drive is partitioned as TPG, you must start the computer by using the "UEFI - CD/DVD drive" in the start menu "F9". If "UEFI - CD/DVD drive" or something to that effect does not exist in the start menu, please post a screenshot and/or make startup listed options.

    Please use a Windows 7 SP1 disc for the best installation experience. If you need a Windows SP1, see 'How to install Windows 7 without the disc' to download and create your own. If the DVD does not start as UEFI, you may need to use a USB Flash drive (can ask "Quick start" DISABLING in BIOS) as the installation media. Please download the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool to create a Windows 7 SP1 USB Flash drive.

    Hey guys,.

    At the moment Windows 8 pilots are not officially supported for these laptops.

    I'm sure they test the books right now, and if everything fades there should be no problem with them releasing the pilots.

    Please bare with them while they find a way to provide you with the drivers.

    You simply use the Vista drivers?

    Everything went wrong?

    If you upgrade most of your drivers installation will remain intact from the Vista installation. If you perform a clean installation, you can probably use most of your Vista drivers. On AMD machines in particular, running Windows Update in Control Panel also works pretty darn good to find updated drivers... after installation of Nvidia Chipset of your Vista page.

    Daniel also wrote a guide to Win 7 for dv6000/dv9000 series that you can refer to if you have missing drivers.

    Then, open windows control panel, open programs and features, right click on the entry "Synaptics Pointing Device Driver" and choose uninstall.

    Once done, restart the laptop.

    When windows has completely recharged, open your download folder, click with the right button on the setup of Synaptics and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once done, restart the laptop.

    Let's see now if you have the possibility to set the sensitivity to the touch - this is described in the document at the link below under the heading 'Set touch sensitivity'.
