• ProBook 4520 s: lack of features on a ProBook 4520 s after upgrade Windows 10

  Hello dear community

  Long story short: I have a HP ProBook 4520 s and yesterday I upgraded manually (with the tool provided by MS) Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 Pro. Everything went very well and smooth and it works perfectly well until now.

  The problem is that some of the features of the laptop no longer work. Here are some examples:

  -Highlight the option on touchpad

  -built-in camera

  -Some FN buttons like the one for the brightness of the screen while others (for example, the volume and email) working

  My reasoning is that it lacks certain drivers or these functions are somehwat is not compatible with the new OS (it's a 5 + year old PC after all), but I could be wrong. I'd like to hear some suggestions and opinions on this.

  If someone needs to my specifications complete, there are:

  Operating system: Windows Pro 64-bit 10
  CPU: Intel Core i3 330M @ 2.13 GHz 61 ° C Arrandale 32nm technology
  RAM: 4.00 GB Dual - Channel DDR3 @ 532 MHz (7-7-7-20)
  Motherboard: Hewlett-Packard 1411 (CPU 1)

  Hello

• ProBook 4520 button woes right touchpad

  Hi all.

  Got a new HP's Probook 4520 using XP SP3. I noticed that the touchpad is not what it should be in some windows.

  For example. If I open an Excel spreadsheet and right-click on one of the tabs at the bottom nothing happens. That is to say I don't get the submenu where can I change the colors of the tab etc.  With IE8 if I right click on open tabs by using the touchpad I get nothing. With the help of a mouse, I get the normal submenu. However if I right click using the touch pad on the desktop I get the right menu so I know that the equipment works. Strange problem, but it's very irritating. I had a glance through the different touchpad options (there are a lot!) but I can't find anything in this regard.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Sammy

  Hi again.

  Just to let you know that if I press "Alt" then the button right then disappeared, the menus appear normal.

  Hope that this 'correction' helps someone.

• HP ProBook 4520 s wirelless card

  Hello

  I have a HP Probook 4520 s for about 4 years. My problem is that my wirelless card has stopped working. I tried to reinstall the drivers for this card, reset, but it didn't. A computer guy told me, this problem is in wirelless card, I need a new. It is SPARE HP 602992-001 WiFi card. I'm looking for a new on the internet and I read, this new card must be in the white list for my model. I founs some cards on ebay, but I don't know what they will be working. Can you help me, when I should looking for a new or who can I buy instead of this one?

  I'm running on Windows 8.1.

  I'm looking forward to your reply.

  Kind regards

  Here you go for an exact replacement:

  Yours is a wi - fi network and bluetooth module, so if you want to replace double you another module. 4520 s used several types of cards. They are listed in pages 70-73 repair here:

  Manual

  It is another option for you:

  WiFi 802.11b/g/n 1 x 1 Broadcom 4313 and 2070 Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR Combo adapter
  600370 001

  Read the instructions carefully for instructions on replacing the card. It's a bit more involved on this model. Do not know why the Ralink is more expensive than the Broadcom; personally, I prefer the Broadcom. If you replace the Broadcom module you load new wifi and Bluetooth drivers. Here are the Win7 drivers:

  HP did not post drivers Windows 8.1 for this model, but it is likely to have the drivers to load automatically for the bluetooth and wifi Broadcom.

• HP Probook 4520 s installed new hard drive with Windows 7 pro x 64 and drivers - very lag

  Hello

  I had my HP Probook 4520 s for 5 years and a few months ago, he started to become very lag, especially when you use the internet, streaming video and games.

  I thought I had identified the problem as a bad sector on the hard drive and so I bought a new hard drive and upgraded the RAM from 4 GB to 8 GB at the same time.

  When I installed the new hard drive, I couldn't burn an image of my old hard drive (it would stop during the process and was unable to do so because of an error). I used my little HP Windows 7 Pro x 64 operating system DVD and your HP Application and Driver Recovery DVD to install the necessary drivers on my replacement new drive.

  The RAM and the new hard drive seem to be good, however, it's more lag. I tried to use latancy monitors to see if the drivers are the issue. It seems that there is a huge amount of latancy and my CPU is at an almost constant usuage of 100%.

  LatancyMon points in the following drivers: usbport.sys, tcip.sys, acpi.sys, iastor.sys, ndis.sys, dxgkrnl.sys and so on.

  I've seen forums where they will guide you step by step how to determine what drivers are causing latancy. This I could do although he always seems to change drivers who are the cause of the problem and there seems to be a lot of pilots of causing this problem it is so difficult to bring out here that one. In addition, there seems to be no solution to these problems. The only one offered is to update the offending drivers. This does not solve the problem with lag and the latancy yet.

  Any ideas?

  P.s. I really don't know not what is the underlying issue is here so I don't know if this is the right forum to post in. Drivers may not at all be the issue, I spent the last four weeks trying to solve this problem.

  Hello skinandbones13

  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  I understand that you have a problem with your laptop. However, since it is a commercial laptop, you should post your question on the map cell of the HP Enterprise Forums for a better answer.

  Have a wonderful day!

• I have laptop (hp probook 4520 s), the touchpad does not work. How can I turn it back on it?

  I have laptop (hp probook 4520 s), the touchpad does not work. How can I turn it back on it?

  This is a question which would probably respond by HP support, because it isn't really a Windows problem.

  Are you sure that the touchpad is not just turned off? Many laptops have switches, power switch, so you can rest your palm while typing one is not worry by pressing the key.

  Sometimes, there is a button above the key, a key on the Ko, or some have a stain on the pavement you waiting/tap/double tap/etc. to toggle the pad.

  If not, you could try to go on the site of HP and DOWNLOAD/reinstall assistance the SW for the touch pad.

• ProBook 4520 s: upgrading my ProBook 4520 s

  Hey there dear community,

  I have been using my HP ProBook 4520 s for more than 5 years. It serves me well throughout my college and colleges after years so I decided to try to muscle it a little rather than change. My current system specs are (have it with Speccy):

  Operating system: Windows Pro 64-bit 10
  CPU: Intel Core i3 330M @ 2.13 GHz 61 ° C Arrandale 32nm technology
  RAM: 4.00 GB Dual - Channel DDR3 @ 532 MHz (7-7-7-20)
  Motherboard: Hewlett-Packard 1411 (CPU 1)
  Graphics card: monitor generic PnP (1366x768@60Hz)
  512MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4500 Series (HP)
  Storage: 1043GB Western Digital WDC WD1001X06X-00SJVT0 (SSD) 42 ° C Black2
  Optical drives: DTSOFT device CdRom virtual hp DVDRAM GT30L
  Audio: AMD High Definition Audio Device

  Now, I have done my share of reading and I reach two conclusions:

  -This laptop simply is not designed to work image or processors so my two options above are dual-core i5 or i7 CPU.

  From what I've read here and there, the most optimal processor that can be used on this particular device are the i7 - 640M, i7 - 620 M and i5 - 580 M. I understand that if I go with either of these three, productivity would increase with about 25-30%.

  -J' have already updated the 3 GB memory to 4 GB, but to my understanding of this laptop supports up to 8 GB of memory, so I'm considerring getting a 2 x 4 GB DDR3 PC3-10600 • CL = 9 • unbuffered NON - ECC DDR3 - 1333 • 1.5V 512Meg x 64 kit SDRAM SO-DIMM 204-PIN.

  My storage is pretty much the best thing to get for this laptop (there the SATA2 port (3 Gbps)) a full 1 TB SSD would be a bit pointless.

  My questions are:

  -Are there problems or other things to consider about the possible CPU upgrade? I would love to see a video tutorial on how properly to the replacement

  -Am I missing something with the memory upgrade? I'm a little hesitant on that tensions must be on the memory sticks (1.35v or 1.5V).

  -Are there else I can do for this in order to make a little more current (drive optical swap with something else, etc..)?

  I really appreciate every suggestion and comment.

  Thank you!

  I7 - 640 M is the top processor of the page. Memory DDR3-1066 and is 1.5 volt. The most recent memory of 1.35 volts to the DDR3-1600 not will probably support. HP recommends this:

  4 GB (PC3-10600 1333 MHz, DDR3) 599092-001

  http://www.Amazon.com/HP-DDR3-SDRAM-memory-module/DP/B0030L3B8E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&QID=1438431520&SR=8-1&keywords=599092-001

  Your repair manuals

  YouTube video

  Technology in the video does not actually remove the CPU but it shows. Remove the processor carefully by turning the locking screw for "open" and lift the CPU out. Be extremely careful with the pins. The new line backup the same orientation as the old and drop it in. Just be sure to block the processor setscrew down tight when you go back. You must follow the instructions on the installation of thermal paste and cleaning.

  You can also consider a SSD drive. The gains to be achieved will be more sensitive than the CPU or memory. Also keep an eye on what you spend and make sure it makes sense. If I could only do an upgrade, it would be the SSD. I would like to bother with a Blu - Ray player on a laptop.

• Replaces the Probook 4520 s HARD drive. Reinstalling Windows 7?

  The hard drive failed on my Probook 4520 s after only 18 months.  A Windows disc came with the computer?  If this is not the case, how to reinstall Windows when a HARD drive fails?  (I know not how to buy and install Windows, I'm more interested in how it is retrieved when it is stored on the failed rather than the removable media drive).

  The reason why I don't know if a disc that came with the computer is that we recently moved to a new State, and the disk can be in one of the boxes, still unopened.

  Thank you

  Patrick Mc.

  Good,

  This may solve your problem.

  If you have the product key for the version of windows 7 that was on your computer, you can go to: http://www.mydigitallife.info/download-windows-7-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit-direct-download-links/

  in which, in, you can download the appropriate windows 7 ISO (don't forget the version is the same as that which was previously installed on your computer). Burn the ISO to a disk and then install it from the disc & activate with your product key.

  I hope this helps!

• ProBook 4520 s: updates to driver for all components

  Salvation; I read the posts on the update of the drivers on the ProBook 4520 s and I do not understand that we should select the most recent drivers from the drop-down list under EACH item listed.  I'm still a bit confused, however.  Some components have several drivers listed under them, some of which have different names/Descriptions.  I need to know WHICH of these "components named" is installed on my ProBook?  Alternatively, they are ALL different names in EACH of the installed components?  I'm afraid to install the wrong drivers if I select just the most recent review date, irrespective of the name/description.  I have had my ProBook 4520 s about 5 years and NEVER updated ALL drivers (that I can remember).  I am running Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit with the Intel Core i5 460 M/2.53 GHz Quad Core processor, a 320 GB Serial ATA-300, 7200 RPM hard drive and a HD Graphics Dynamic video memory technology Intel graphics controller, etc., etc.  The problems I encounter are: it is slow to start, it delayed opening opening sites & programs & there is a power outage occasional temporary graphics (gel?).  So, at the very least, I think that my graphic card driver needs to be updated.  But surely most other pilots must update as well.  (And Internet HP site lists a ton of drivers when I plug my ProBook.  I use my laptop every day and have not had a major problem.  I recently had to update the drivers on my HP printer, and even if the printer is NOW printing again, I ALWAYS shows an error on the ProBook (when I go in devices & printer from the control panel), on the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-all-in-one. As the error message did not disappear after I solved the printing problem, I think it's probably a good idea to update ALL the drivers in my ProBook before I start to experience more problems... Is someone can you PLEASE help me understand WHAT drivers should I install and in WHAT order, so I do not screw up my ProBook?  Thank you very much!  I appreciate all help.

  Go to the Device Manager in Control Panel, check the names of the devices under each category. Download the latest version of the one you want from the HP support page depending on the installed operating system

• Black screen after startup probook 4520 s

  Hi all

  I just got the probook 4520 s a few months ago. Now, I have a problem: when I start the laptop first sign of hp and then the windows sign appears on the screen. Instead of asking me to log in using the password or fingerprint digital, the screen will become black and all I can see is the mouse. I tried ctrl + alt + delete, but which does nothing.
  I restarted my phone several times, but the same thing over and over again...
  Can someone help me please? I'm a little desperate and all stores are closed on Sunday in Germany.

  Hello

  Try the hard reset, but this time when you press the power button start to tap the F8 key to see if you can get into safe mode.

  If you can get into safe mode, then you should be able to do a system restore to an hour before the start of this issue.

• Recovery partition engage F11 starts after stock Win7 installed - Probook 4520 s

  Laptop: HP Probook 4520 s (with the Energy Star label)

  OS: Windows 7 32-bit

  Error: Nothing happens when you press F11 at startup

  Deliver changes: installed Windows 7 from stock disc Windows 7

  I am a PC technician with quite a few years behind me, but that gave me even after a day of research solutions to stop online.

  A friend bought a ProBook 4520 s where the previous owner, just before selling it, installed Windows 7 on a disc of Windows 7 Microsoft stock (I suppose that pros sell with a 'clean' OS), who of course ERA naked place without drivers, etc..

  When the installation has been made however, it didn't destroy the partitioning of HP (that is to say, the scores remained: SYSTEM OS (c:\), HP_RECOVERY, HP_TOOLS). These scores seem intact, so I am trying to run a HP recovery to return the computer to factory settings.
  When the computer reboots, I am asked to press 'ESC' to the options, what I do, then it prompts 'F11' for HP Recovery. When I press F11, it starts only the Windows 7 operating system as usual. With what I've managed to collect via search, I think something was disturbed on the HP_RECOVERY as the MBR partition, or something, possibly by the previous user making the active HP_RECOVERY partition, then selecting "Repair Windows" on the Windows disk.

  I tried solutions include:

  • Pressing ESC-> F11 at startup [simply boots as usual].
  • The definition of the partition HP_RECOVERY 'active' disk management, and then restart [simply boots as usual].
  • Installation "Enhanced HP Backup and Recovery Manager for Microsoft Vista" (sp38131.exe) [when it is run, and the recovery of the PC is selected, it is said there is no partition recovery and demand for drives].
  • Installation "Fix for HP Multi-Partition Recovery Manager" (sp48415.exe) suggested to the 'green post' here [no change].
  • Installation 'Recovery Manager install for Microsoft Windows 7 Upgrade Patch' (sp45823.exe) [no change].
  • Install "HP Recovery Manager for Microsoft Windows 7" (sp45602.exe) [no change].

  I live far from having access to the purchase of HP recovery DVDs, so need a solution for this problem, please. At most, I can download.

  The operating system in recovery, I expect Windows 7, because there is a Windows 7 sticker on the laptop.

  There is not any way I know how.

  In addition, the recovery disk is a plain OEM version without drivers or software.

  The DVD driver and application automatically installs the software and drivers that are on the recovery partition, but it is on the support page and driver of the laptop (with the exception of the DVD software, which isn't a big deal since you can play DVDs in W7 w/o any 3rd party software).

  Just download and burn the ISO using a ISO burn option and reinstall W7.

  If you can't find the drivers, please read this guide to find the hardware ID and after the first string for each of them, and I'll give you links to the drivers you need.

  http://laptop-driver.blogspot.com/2009/12/how-to-check-hardware-ID.html

  I always delete all the partitions and reinstall a clean OS on any PC, I am owner and download all the drivers and the software I need, anyway.

  I see no major reason for dismay.

  A recovery partition is handy to have, but once you build the PC the way you want, use the included backup and imaging tools native to all versions of W7 and create your own recovery image on a drive hard portable usb.  Can use it if you need to recover the operating system.
