  My Pavilion dv6 upgraded to windows 10 what happened to my external screen does not

  Hi @Jake08,

  Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

  I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook and questions with external screen works not properly. You can try this without the connected external monitor.

  In Device Manager, click the arrow next to display adapters to expand this category
  Right-click on the graph, and then select Update driver software if more than 1 graphic adapter do 1 at a time.
  Select search automatically for updated driver software.

  The laptop must find and automatically install the updated driver
  Once the installation is complete, restart your laptop.

  You can try to use the Windows Update Troubleshooter to fix updates that do not come through Windows 10.  Please restart the laptop twice to make sure that all updates are completed!

  Please let me know how it goes.

  Thank you.

• Windows 8 is a mess - I reinstalled Windows 7, what pleases me. Please confirm that there will be continued support for Windoiws 7

  It is still not easy in Windows 8 to close an application! The only bits I liked in it are the bits of desktop Windows 7, so I finally reinstalled Windows 7, which is perfectly adapted to my needs, unlike Windows 8, which seems to be all in all. I use and have used Windows as the platform for development of ideas since many years, but the latest version appears more oriented than creator-oriented consumer and may be where our paths diverge. Which brings me to the question: Windows 7 and Windows 7 support will continue to be available as a separate option in the foreseeable future? Or should I be looking in the direction of Linux?

  You will not be able to have Windows 7 supported forever, even if no one expected that Windows XP would be always supported 11 years later and with the support of end of 2014, its realization, another for the operating system. I see its a similar scenario to happen for Windows 7, tested and proven. Even when Microsoft officially decides end of support, you will still be able to use it.

  Another thing, I've been to restaurants, businesses, banks and they are always running BACK. I was even a taylor, who runs a program for creating patterns under Windodws 95. It comes 15 years after its release. Bill Gates once said, you could buy a license from us and never buy another product or license from us again.

  Microsoft said that the future will consist of two PC on Windows 7 and windows 8 devices that would suggest there will be a coexistence between the two. Microsoft also touted Windows 8 as a liberation that share many of the same features that makes just more manageable than Windows 7.

  Another thing, companies won't switch to Windows 8 at night especially if they are being deployed to Windows 7, which is now a proven product. Companies will perhaps deploy Windows 8 in some scenarios, such as mobile, workers of the word employees (mainly vertical industries) and possibly introduce it on new systems as they do PC refresh cycles.

• Windows 2008 - what happens if it does not activate in the grace period?

  Hello

  I know it is a forum for Vista but everything on the web seems to tell me that way...

  In our Organization, we plan on using KMS for activation of our Windows 2008 servers (we have only 2 of them at the moment). However what I read you need at least 5 physical servers Windows 2008 (not the Virtual Machines) before they will start to activate.

  My question is: what will happen to the Windows 2008 servers if they do not activate the grace period?

  From what I can tell they should keep normal operation (reduced functionality Mode has apparently been removed from Windows 2008) but will be many notifications to activate me now whenever you log on to the server.

  Thanks for your help.

• get rid of windows 10 what happened to a lot of problems. I ' am moving to windows 7 is possible.

  Step 1: Download a copy of Windows 7:

  For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

  Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

  How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

  Make sure you scroll down and read the section:

  What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

  Step 2: Perform a custom installation, see Windows 7 section of the following article how to perform a custom installation:

• Dllhost.exe - application error windows 7 what happens if upgrading to Windows 10

  After a power failure that I realized when power has been restored that my computer had been left there on before the failure - 3 days now I get a dllhost.exe - application error message.   I have not installed any new programs or updated everything I know before the current problem.  My question is if I download the new Windows 10 will be cela correct/fix problem dllhost.exe - my computer currently the s running on Windows 7

  I suggest that you enable restoring the system so that it is available the next time that you need.  Note that the system restore must be enabled on the operating system drive, there is no need to enable restoring the system on disks.

  Regarding the dllhost.exe - application error message I suggest that you run a Malwarebytes and a TDSSKiller scan on the machine.  If these find no parasites, then don't look at the registry of the possible clues, this error can be caused by any software installed on the computer.

• HP Pavilion M6 - 1068ca: upgrade to windows 10 - what happened to my package of free RESUME software

  After the upgrade of the Windsows 7-10 of Windows, I lost all the HP and utility programs and free software provided with my laptop such as Cyberlink, Adobe Photoshop, etc, how do I recover them?

  @grolou,

  My "simplistic" solution was not so much a solution, but to verify that you had done the upgrade properly. The software you describe has been a part of your installed operating system of origin image. The process of upgrading Windows 10 according to the description will retain most of the applications, unless they are incompatible or would impede the actual upgrade process. Applications that do not give or have been removed from the process, or will no longer function will need to be reinstalled, probably with a compatible version, if it is available.

  Hello

  Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

  Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

  1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
  2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
  3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
     • Windows:
       • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
       • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
     • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
     • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
  4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
     1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
     2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

  Please report back to see if this helped you!

  Thank you.

• Formatting and reinstalling Windows without the recovery CD

  I don't have access to my recovery cd as I am currently overseas and I am trying to format and reinstall windows. What would be the best way to do this? The recovery CD is totally part of reinstalling windows?

  I don't want to just do the reinstall and find that I have no screen etc.

  Hello

  Well, if you have no recovery CD, you can install the Windows operating system from the original CD of Microsoft Windows. Then you can try to download all the required drivers will Toshiba from the Toshiba download page.
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  But beware: you must update the drivers in the correct order. The drivers are placed in the right order, and it is very important for the new facility.

• Recovery HP DM1 / reinstall windows 7?

  When I need to... Reinstall windows? What should do?

  I already found the USB recovery Utillity. But it only works under windows it self right?

  What when I'm not able to boot into Windows at all?

  Hello

  You created the recovery on the USB port?  If you do not, the instructions to do this are on the link below.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01867124

  Once created, the USB bootable Recovery can be used if you can load Windows or not - simply insert the USB key and restart to boot from it and start the recovery process (as you would if you were using recovery discs).

  Kind regards

• What happens to my data if I reinstall windows 7

  my system does not work correctly, and I think that some of my windows got corrupted programs.  I think I need to reinstall windows 7 to fix the problem

  Hello

  The best safe method would be to always have redundant backups of your data. An Installation repair help - that allows to maintain the programs and data - maybe the last link below.

  You mean reinstall the OS completely? If you have the Windows 7 DVD you can do this however remember to completely backup your data off the drive and you need to reinstall your programs. If you don't have Windows 7 disks, you can buy them in your machine to cheap system. If you don't care about existing programs, then you can do a complete new installation - just select the format options that erases the entire disc (This erases all data as well). Some system manufacturers use Partitions of recovery as well as other methods to allow you to return to a completely new installation. So check with your system manufacturer to see what options you have to do - and it's certainly doable - just a matter of the manufacturer of the system processes in place for you.
