It will be possible to disable startup secure on a new Windows 8 laptop (HP Envy dv6t)?

I'm planning a purchase of a new HP dv6t envy. It comes with Windows 8. I also intend to dual boot it with CentOS. I just need to know if there is a way to disable startup secure UEFI to allow me to start Linux.

Yes, secure boot can be disabled in the bios.

  • Is it possible to disable the caps lock shift key on a laptop?

    Is it possible to disable the caps lock shift key on a laptop?  I am running Windows 7 64 bit on a Lenovo laptop
    Thank you

    I understand that you have found some suggestions on editing the registry - they aren't so bad. If you don't want to download all of the files that allow you to disable the LOCKING of the capital LETTERS, you can create it by yourself:

    1. Press the Windows key + R > type notepad , and then press enter
    2. Paste to Notepad:

      Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]
      "Scancode Map" = hex: 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 02, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 3A, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00

    3. File > record under...
      • Select to Save as: all files
      • Enter the file name : disable_caps_lock.reg
      • Click Save
    4. Right-click on the created file > merge
    5. Restart your system

    In case you want to turn CAPS LOCK on again, you must remove this registry entry, so you must do the following:

    1. Press the Windows key + R > type regedit and press enter
    2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout
    3. Right click on the Card of Scancode > delete
    4. Restart your system

    I guess that it is perhaps the only way to turn off the CAPS LOCK.

    In case you still don't want to do this, Windows 7 offers something different to disable the LOCKING of the upper CASE. You can turn the ToggleKeys, then you will hear a beep when you press CAPS LOCK. To do this follow these steps:

    1. Press Start > Control Panel > access >easy access Center > make the keyboard easier to use
    2. Check the box to enable the ToggleKeys

  • Is it possible to open my site in a new window

    Hello

    I wonder if someone can help me with this page / window size problem.

    I would like my site to open in a new window so that I can specify the size. This part works fine, but if my browser already has a window open my muse site takes then the shape and size.

    Maybe there's something I can stick in your head, as I did with the size.

    Bridge

    Muse will open a file previewed or published to the default browser site what I put as a default value.

    There is control of Muse to automatic resizing of the browser which is already open, you can make the browser default to another that you do not use for other work.

    Thank you

  • Pavilion P7-1240: Impossible to disable startup secure in the Bios

    I would like to disable Secure Boot, but do not have the ability to do this in my bios.

    My BIOS is the JAS_710 ROM with v 7.10.

    My menus look almost identical to those in this post:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03659945/

    with the exception of having an element of Boot Configuration secure (from Figure 1 - Menu of security).

    Anyone has any experience to turn it off without this configuration item?

    BlairD, welcome to the forum.

    I am not sure you have Secure Boot in the BIOS.  I don't find reference to it in one of the guides.  The computer came originally with Win 7.

    Please click on the Thumbs up button '+' if I helped you and click on "Accept as Solution" If your problem is resolved.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones is it possible to disable the security pushes on AT & T BlackBerry Curve?

    Hi all. I wrote an SMS application which works successfully on my BlackBerry 8310 (on AT & T wireless). However, whenever I run the application, I get this annoying security message that says: "request has attempted to access the network. You want to allow this? ». Is there a way I can get rid of it, as it has become VERY difficult to answer this prompt whenever I run the application. I have already disappeared in the options--> options--> permissions and put everything to 'allow' for my request without success. I read this topic and my first inclination would be to assume that it is not possible due to AT & T/Cingular lock the phone via the security built into the handset:

    (http://developer.att.com/developer/printArticle.jsp?detailId=11300207)

    However, I read in some places that people were hacking their file j2me_domain_registry.sm with some limited success. I didn't know anyone who did this with a BlackBerry however. Anyone had experience or know a way to do this. I don't know even how to find this file on the BlackBerry, as all the examples deal with non - GSM CDMA phones and they are mainly about Motorola V3XX series. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    You should be able to get rid of this message by the activation of the firewall. Click options, then security, then firewall. Activate and save.

  • My Macbook Pro, El Capitan will not recognize my ipod classic 30 GB, but my windows 7 laptop work done!

    My Macbook 2010 installed pro that el capitan will recognize not my 30 GB classic ipod, but my work Windows 7 once laptop I installed iTunes does! Great, I thought, I'll reset the iPod to FACTORY DEFAULTS and clean and I hoped that my Mac would then see the ipod, but NO, not even appear in disk management. Have now tried 3 or poss 4 duct, which is a brand new 'authentic apple' one. It's really annoying. My iPhone 6 works fine, but I want the iPod when I run in the rain and connect to the older stereo on the truck. It seems that nothing wrong with the iPod itself, even if she had a replacement of the battery some time ago and worked fine since. He has never synchronized with my Macbook. I tried before El Capitan and several times since getting the laptop last year with Yosemite installed.

    Of course, I followed the Apple Support Troubleshooting, which basically is useless in this case. I have the latest version of iTunes, recently updated.

    Can someone please help! I am obsessed and really want to work. I love my iPod classic and will use it and get the case has been refurbished. It seems that historically there was a * of a lot of problems of this kind, has everyone just gave up and put their iPod to their phones in a cell?

    Any help would be appreciated. He drives me crazy and I googled all out.

    Joe

    Has been one of the things you tried to put the iPod in Disk Mode?

    Put the iPod in disk - Apple Support Mode

    Is "Disk Manager" the pre-installation disk utility application?

    If you put in Disk Mode and connect, it acts as a simple USB storage device, so it should appear at least in disk utility.

  • Is it possible to disable the webcam on the Equium A300D toolbar

    Is it possible to disable the webcam on the Equium A300D toolbar at all? (i.e. just access controls of the webcam from the control panel or start menu orsomething).

    The toolbar is on the left of the screen, it's extremely annoying when everytime my mouse wanders to the left of the screen, to the top appears the toolbar.

    On some applications that I use no app anchored to the left of the screen, and when the toolbar appears, covering half of them, I have to wait that the toolbar disappear again, which can be extremely annoying if I hurried to do something.

    Is it possible to disable to appear?

    Yes, you can disable the automatic loading webcam software.

    In RUN, type * msconfig and start this tool.
    You will see the Startup tab. Click this tab and disable the webcam software (remove the mark).
    Apply the changes, and then restart the laptop.

    Now windows should start without the webcam software.

    Method 1:

    If you have installed a security software on the computer, then I suggest you to temporarily disable a software antivirus installed on the computer and check if the same problem occurs

    Note: Please make sure that you activate the software of Antivirus\Firewall after the test to keep your computer protected.

  • Is it possible to disable some programs and services in a profile, and another profile in Win 7 x 64 Ultimate has no effect?

    Is it possible to disable some programs and services in a profile, and another profile in Win 7 x 64 Ultimate has no effect? I have the profile and I went off the network and AV connection because I won't need them because I will work with a DAW in this profile.  When I connect to my profile on a regular basis that the network connection is disabled and the AV is thus disabled.  I want to eliminate any performance drain my Security Suite requires in profile, where I use the DAW.  There must be a way to do this without making all profiles.  Thank you in advance.
