  • computer laptop HP compaq 6730 b freezes and slows down

    I have a laptop hp compaq 6730 b.

    Since a few days, I realized when I plug to charge my cell phone, it freezes finally and slows down.

    The CPU usage suddenly increases.

    What should I do?

    help please...

    Thank you

    It works ok with only the power adapter is plugged in and the battery out of the laptop? The battery charge ok if the laptop is turned off? The laptop works for a long time reasonable with just the battery?  I've seen this kind of problem with a Toshiba machine that used a NEC/CATHERINE 0E128 Proadlizer high switching frequency DC/DC Converter output capacitor.  I doubt that your computer has this chip but the problem and the function are similar.  It is a device surface and can cause the laptop to have a problem with the battery and the power adapter plugged in at the same time.  Many times this you will also charge the battery when the computer is turned off, but not when it is turned on. Sometimes it will not allow your to run Notepad with only the attached power adapter and the battery removed. Just to think.

    Help please!

    That s is very bad. I imagine that BIOS is doomed now and the laptop will not boot.
    Usually, in such situation, you should contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.

    Anyway, check it please this thread. Maybe you'll be able to fix this yourself.

    Hi @HPIsha

    I understand that you have performance problems with your laptop (speed, gels, etc.). I'm happy to help you with this.

    I'd take a glance on the following pages; There will be an overlap between them, but each is useful.

    Some software Applications may cause Windows to start or run slowly

    Windows 7 stops responding or becomes very slow after you connect to the Internet

    Set the performance of the slow system (Windows 7)

    It is possible that it could also be a hardware problem, but it is most likely too much software, loading or running in the background and thus more taxing your processor. These pages can help with this and other common causes such as malware and other cousins of software.

    Try these first, because these solutions are free. When it comes to hardware such as memory upgrades, you need to get the memory to do the upgrade, and it must be of the correct type to be usable.

    You can check this link for the Service Manual: Compaq Presario CQ42 Notebook PC and PC portable HP G42 - Maintenance and Service of Guide. In it, you will see the type and compatible variety.

    I hope this helps.

    Hi @rsteelshoes44

    Welcome to the HP support community! I saw your post about the problem with the browser freeze. I'll be happy to help you with this. Have you tried another browser to see if the same thing happens?

    Try to roll back the driver for wireless network card in your device manager. You can do this by right clicking on your card under network adapters wireless network. Then select Properties, then go to the driver tab then go back to the previous version. It is to determine who is a bad driver update.

  • How to Win 7 Pro license on a laptop HP 4540 s that came with Win 8 Pro 64 bit (no COA)?

    Ok

    So, I bought a nice new HP laptop... 4540 s I5 - very nice - but it comes with 8 Pro 64 bit Windows which unfortunately will not run the basic things I need this laptop due to driver problems. So no problem. I have right to demotion on Windows 8 Pro 64 bit for Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. I have Windows 7 the retail media and an existing permit, that I can use during the installation (although this license is also used on my other machine).

    So, I install windows 7. No problem.

    Add all the drivers for your laptop. No problem.

    Now comes the part where I'm supposed to install the license to activate.

    I use the license key, I had already activated on my other laptop (although that is running windows 7 32 bit).

    It allows! Shock. It should have my other machine is the use of this license.

    In any case. I want to be able to use the "downgrade" on the Windows 8 Pro 64 bit license rights and apply it to the installation of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit I am now running. Althougth it is allowed there is no any procedure for anyone without a physical COST windows 8 for the upgrade to Windows 7.

    If someone please advise how I can solve this problem. I have called Microsoft a few times and seem to end up on hold because no one can answer my question.

    How register you an installation of Windows 7 when you do not have a certificate of authenticity windows 8?

    Surely someone must have hit this already.

    Please notify.

    Well,.

    subsequently talked to someone in the Microsoft technical support who told me that I should talk to HP in order to obtain a product key valid windows 7 pro 64. However as I expected maintain for nearly an hour he was good enough to go through the process on behalf of HP and was able to give me a new key.

    But if you need to do this, then I guess the official course is to contact HP and ask for a key. And apparently they should also be able to provide you with support of Windows 7 If you ask.

    hope that helps.

  • Can not boot, BIOS freezes, cannot recover, cannot BIOS recover

    -HP Pavilion dv6-6145dx

    -Windows 7 64 bit

    No error message.

    I recently got my laptop out for cleaning the keyboard (someone spilled a bit of a drink on this subject).  When the spill occurred I immediately turned off the laptop, took out the battery and put that face on a towel all excess moisture could elapse.

    When I got to share, it doesn't seem to be significant damage from moisture to the MOBO, it was mostly isolated to the keyboard and I was able to clean it without incident, take care to discharge static electricity as I worked.

    Put everything back together, but when you first start it hung at windows loading screen.  Tried to get into recovery mode, and it hung to the loading screen.  Tried to get into the BIOS, and it froze after the opening of the BIOS screen (clock was still ticking but the keyboard is unresponsive and I could not navigate the menus).  I even tried to access the recovery/update the BIOS by pressing Win + B when starting and even hung up and wouldn't move.

    Totally at a loss, I can't find this broad on the forums...  People who either cannot start, cannot access BIOS, or something like that but not all of the above.  Off warranty now and I cannot afford to be dug by the computer repair man immediately if there is a chance that I can fix it.

    Thank you, any help is appreciated massively.

    Hello martialennans.  I understand that you are unable to get the laptop to boot.

    Have you tried to do a hard reset?  It drains all the power of the laptop and forced hardware to reset them.  Here are the steps.

    1. Make sure the laptop is turned off.
    2. Remove the battery and AC power.
    3. Press and hold the power button for 15-20 seconds, three times.
    4. Replace the battery and AC power.
    5. Try to start laptop.

    Unfortunately, there are not many steps that experts will be able to offer for this kind of question.  This kind of problem is best diagnosed hands on and in person. It seems that the motherboard or other elements were probably damaged by the liquid in your case.  I suggest you take it to a local computer repair shop.  Many will diagnose the problem for you while you're in the store.  This would be the fastest method.

    If you want to talk about the issue with the help of HP or to inquire about a repair, you can give them a call.  For the USA / the number of Canadian customers is 1-800-474-6836.  If you are in another domain, you must visit HP's Support around the world to find contact information for your region.

    If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.  Have a great weekend.

    I came across your post about the BIOS and wanted to help!

    To enter the BIOS, turn on the laptop, and while the display is blank, near the F10 key.  If this does not work, then it may be F6 or F2 key.  You can try to review the following document to help you with the problem of the mouse:

  • Help on Checksum error, BIOS freezes... Windows XP

    I have a desktop IBM 621932u.  Master 40g HD, 320g slave.  Operating system is Windows XP Professional.  He was not connected to the Internet since the 07.  I mainly use it for music production.

    I tried to connect a SONY HD TV to the video card.  Of course I had to change the screen resolution sizes.  Shortly after changing screen resolutions that would flicker the entire map video, then black.  I thought that it could not handle the HD TV.  I'm stopping with the power button because I couldn't see the screen click 'stop '. I reconnected my regular monitor to the video card and rebooted, reach out to the office.  To try to change the resolution of the screen to its original state, all of the computer froze and the screen went white.

    Upon restart, the computer would not let me go beyond the Professional Windows XP splash screen before the screen would go black and it would freeze.  I reached 44 attempts to restart failed (the cpu was told that).  It got to the point where I couldn't do it at the startup screen and it would freeze just after the BIOS splash screen.  I changed my BIOS back to default settings.  Nothing changed even after that.

    I checked my memory.  There are two sticks of memory.  Try to restart with a stick, then two, then alternating them and then finally let them all together (of course, this did not worked but what the heck right?)

    I had a hard drive of 40g with Windows XP installed.  He also wouldn't let me go beyond the XP splash screen!

    Then I had a checksum error, and the cpu does not load beyond BIOS.  I changed the battery, but it still freezes.  Occasionally, he would give me access to the XP splash screen, but it will freeze once a single bar flies through the screen.

    Once again, a mosaic of colors appeared on my screen to enter the BIOS.

    Sounds like you damaged your video card. Take it out and install a well-known work. If this is the problem, take the original video card. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
