  • Failed to upgrade HP Support Assistant

    I have a new Pavilion m6-1045dx running on Win 7 64 bit.  Recently I tried to update the HP Support Assistant 6.1.12.1, but it failed.  At the opening of the SA there is a high bar message saying "an error has occurred."  On the bottom, the name of the product number and serial number are not displayed, but it only shows "Loading" for each of them.

  • Pavilion dv7 cannot recognize the CD/DVD drive, no help support "assistant".

    Subject says it all.  Since I got this machine, it had problems when the CD/DVD drive becomes invisible and are not accessible by any means.  A reboot has solved in the past, but now, it doesn't seem to work more.  I would like to reinstall the drivers, but guess what, I don't know what kind of player, it is (funny how that works), and Support 'Assistant' is apparently ihcapable to understand the model of this Pavilion dv7 ("product name: loading...") ("now until the heat death of the universe), which does not help either.  Anyone has a better idea than just blindly install the drivers?

    Hello

    Drivers for CD/DVD drives comes with Windows (IE with the operating system - it is not the drivers you need to download).  The driver is located in C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\cdrom.sys.

    First, try the automated Microsoft fixit at the link below.

    Windows 7

    Vista

    Check if the drive works now.

    If the drive does not, in the Start Menu, open Control Panel and click Device Manager.  Click to open the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers.  Right-click on the first channel and select uninstall.  Do not delete if requested drivers.  When uninstalled repeat the process for each channel.  Also, if an ATA controller is listed, right click and uninstall it, once again is not removing the drivers if requested. Then, open the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drives.  Make a right click the drive (if it shows!) and choose uninstall.  Do not delete if requested drivers.

    Restart the computer and let Windows reinstall devices.  Check the disc again.

    If it still does not work, re-run the fixit automated Microsoft at the link below.

    Windows 7

    Vista

    Then, in the Start Menu, open Control Panel and click Device Manager.  Click to open the CD/DVD-ROM drives.  Right-click on the drive and choose uninstall.  Do not delete if requested drivers.  When the device has been uninstalled click the icon 'Search for hardware changes' (usually just below help in the toolbar).  Let windows reinstall the disc and see if it works now.

  • iPad, Safari froze and was told that I had to call apple for support assistance.

    My iPad Safari froze and was told that I had to call apple for support assistance.  I called and gave the last four digits of my serial number of the iPad.  They wanted me to download app and pay money, but it felt weird, so I hung up. Am I or my systems compromised in any way by calling and giving the serial number or hang up in time that nothing should be affected?

    Do this...

    Tap Settings > Safari and then slide down and tap clear history & data website, then reboot your iPad.

    The number they gave you is not Apple.

    Never give any personal data abroad on the net, including serial numbers.

  • I downloaded the SRT managed hosted IP Assistant Toolbar 17.4.86.1 and I can't make it work on Firefox.

    I downloaded the SRT managed hosted IP Assistant Toolbar 17.4.86.1 and I can't make it work on Firefox. It is said he is completely compatible, but I downloaded it like the instructions said and it will not show as an option of the toolbar for Firefox. Please help and I try not to use IE at work we run XP. Thank you.

    I'm surprised companies still use XP. My old school already spent 8.

    In fact, if you are having problems with the addon/extension, you'd better wide asking the developer about it, given that Mozilla neither we volunteers don't have nothing to do with the extension works do not. I suggest a Safe Mode to see if this addon is in conflict with by another addon, but I don't want to give you wrong steps.

    If you want to try Safe Mode, do not hesitate:

    • Windows/Mac: choose Help > restart with disabled modules
    • Linux: run firefox-safe-mode in the Terminal/Konsole

    If Firefox opens fine with no problems, it is probably one of your extensions that is causing the problem. You can reactivate your modules one by one until you find the one that is causing the problem to be re-activated.

  • HP laptop - 15-ay011nr: HP Support Assistant suggests an incompatible update to my system

    Hello

    HP Support Assistant suggested three updates for my system.

    When you try to download the wizard, all of the facilities have not (a phenomenon that has been described by some other posters in this forum).

    So, I looked for each three updates directly in the HP site, after finding my computer and the operating system (HP for computer laptop 15-ay011nr, 10 64-bit Windows).

    I have found two of the updates, but not the third, called: "Intel WLAN for Micorsoft Windows", with Softpaq number SP76133, version 18.40.0.9Pp2, if it is relevant.

    When I reviewed this softpaq number in the site, I have found, but saw that it's only for windows 7 and 8.

    Why the HP support assistant that suggest an update for my system win 10?

    Am I supposed to download it?

    If not, is there a way to stop the support Wizard to think that I should install it?

    Thank you!

    Eitan

    Hey there! @Eitan_L, thank you for visiting the Forums from the HP Support!

    I understand that HP support assistant is to give false information.

    I suggest you uninstall all components of HP support assistant programs in Control Panel.

    Restart your PC and reinstall the latest version of HP support assistant from this link: http://hp.care/2ezPyyk

    After installation please try to check the updates and see if you still have the same problem.

    Please let me know the results!

    Have a great day!

    The steps I've tried: uninstallation with Revouninstaller, resettlement, reset

    @troubleshoot411, welcome to the forum.

    I agree with using Revo.  This is my go to app for malware.  When you used Revo, you use the advanced option?  This will not only remove the program from the HARD disk, but it removes remnants of the BIOS.  If this is not the case, this could be the problem.  I suggest to try the advanced option to remove HPSA and shut down the computer.  Then, start and reinstall HPSA here.

  • Omen J2W10AV #ABA: driver Nvidia laptop HP Omen - HP Support Assistant or Nvidia Geforce experience?

    Is there a difference between the graphic drivers downloaded through Nvidia GeForce experience or HP Support Assistant? Their version numbers do not match. I currently use GeForce experience to keep my graphics driver updated, but I also have a problem with how strong the fan may be when you play. I didn't know how hard it gets. If the driver supplied by HP is better suited for this laptop?

    Appreciate any help.

    @Kimikaze ,

    Hello and thanks for the display on the HP support forums.  When going with drivers for all laptops always stick with links and tools from manufacturers.  The reason is that pilots have been designed for this application.  They can use a similar number as a GT750 however chip the chip built for laptop him more often were modified slightly to adapt to demand.

    Link at the bottom, so only use the drivers from HP and tools for your HP laptop.  Direct drivers from the chipset manufacturer may not be the same and ask questions for you.

    Thanks again for posting and have a great day.
