Load Linux on HP laptop

Hi all

Today, I have a laptop and I want to install Linux, the laptop did not have any operating system (except the one loaded by default). I tried to make a USB bootable success, to load the ISO bootable 'no' and no not no more successful. Any idea? It is a G4 of 250 HP.

Happy new year to all.

Since this is a new PC, in no doubt is came with UEFI, not the older BIOS, and this poses new problems for the installation of Linux distributions.

These issues are explained in this thread of Ubuntu Forums: install UEFI - tips

Good luck

    If you don't see any of the regular bars (e.g., tab, toolbar, toolbar bookmarks bar), your Firefox can be full-screen mode. The F11 function key toggles between the normal modes and full screen.

    If you have a tab bar, you can right click on an empty area of it or click New tab (+) and select missing toolbars from the menu that appears.

  • I'm unable to load Firefox on my laptop. I tried several times.

    I can't load Firefox on my laptop. I tried to download and run, download and save, even disabled antivirus and firewall with no luck.

    If the files have already been downloaded, then delete the files in the folder updates\0 and updates.

    You can also remove active - update.xml, or even updates.xml (this will clear the update history).

    C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates
    (%LOCALAPPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox)
    

    Do a cleaning (re) install and delete the folder of the program Firefox (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).

    Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

    Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible.

    • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you will also lose your personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    Your bookmarks and other profile data stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a relocation, but make sure that you do not select delete data of a personal nature if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Upgrade to the new program bitdefender antivirus protection issues and make it load completely on my laptop.

    Original title: Windows Vista vs Bitdefender

    I have improved my protection to the new program of bitdefender antivirus and I have problems make him load completely on my laptop. I have it loaded on the other 2 computers, both with vista, without a hitch. I've installed, uninstalled and reinstalled several times all with the same results. It load, takes the safety relay all the settings like his work, but I can't access the program. As lond as I leave my com.running settings in Security Center: bitdefender is running and up to date. If I restart my com Bitdefender stops, extinguish all my security settings.

    Said BitDefender.com I have Windows Live running and it prevents the program from load correctly. I have uninstalled LIVE from my laptop I did NOT on the other 2. I searched my computer any other running programs migth as and have found none. No adware, no Malware, nothing else that he still does not load. Any ideas?

    Hi Harold,.

    It seems that the system still has traces of the other anti-virus program.
    If you still have problems with the installation of the new anti-virus, you can contact the Bitdefender for assistance:

  • Sansa Clip, Linux and my laptop

    My husband changed our main Linux home computer, while my laptop is still a windows machine.  I like to keep the laptop the same, and I don't think that my husband is ready to go back to windows for the main computer.

    I have several clips, and I seem to be the person in my family extened who fills the players of all the old people.  I keep trying to get them to deal with their own aircraft, but... well.

    In any case, two questions. It seems to me have found ways to fill the player either on the Linux OR windows box, but they won't recognize things which lies on the other drive.  Is it possible to make sure when I'm on GNU / linux, I can play with all the files and vice versa?

    Second question: what would recommend as the best manipulator of player/music music file (that is to say, something that gathers the playlists and other and transfers them on the piece) to the linux machine?

    Thanks for any imput, Jordana

    Is it possible that you connect in MSC with the Linux machine and PSG on a windows? The player could do this without your knowledge if the USB on the drive is set to Auto Detect (default).

    Files loaded in a USB mode are not folded or accessible while connected using the reverse.

    If the system or Mode restore safe work not and you do not have a Microsoft Vista DVD, make a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  • ISO for Ubuntu 14.04 (and 16.04) for Linux-based Dell laptops

    Hello

    I just got my 5510 precision with pre-installed Ubuntu 14.04.

    I noticed that the installed Ubuntu on the laptop is not a vanilla Ubuntu distro. For example, there are a few other DELL specific apt rest added to it. Or it has preinstalled recovery disk creator app, etc..

    I created a USB recovery already, but what DELL hosts this OEM ISO slightly modified for the Ubuntu somewhere on their servers for download - in case someone loses the recovery media and requires the download somewhere?

    I also noticed that DELL specific rest for 16.04 are already on the rest of Ubuntu (dell.archive.ubuntu.com/.../xenial). This means that 16.04 is good to go now for my laptop?

    And if I want to clean install 16.04, DELL provides an ISO to measure with their rest file apt already pre-configured and extra apps pre-installed?

    Two other questions:

    • Additional measures that I have to do if I want to install Kubuntu 16.04 on my 5510 precision? (eg. What rest apt I might add?)

      • Better yet, DELL provides personalized Kubuntu ISO files?
    • How well do Fedora works on these machines?

    Thanks in advance.

    I have this laptop (precision 5510, 32 GB of RAM, i7-6820HQ) for a week and everything I've done so far are optimizations (Windows/Ubuntu) and always the computer behaves so slow (compared to all laptop I had before). It gives me a bad feeling. For that price I expect that all work seamlessly.

    The start-up time takes 8-10 seconds (and I'm not the only one with this problem. (Check here).
    Until I have for Windows/Linux, I need to wait for another 20 seconds.
    Each application starts with a slight delay (~ 1 second).
    Resizing of an application is a slow process.

    My BIOS/drivers are up-to-date.
    In Ubuntu (16.04, 64-bit):
    -J' updated the kernel to 4.7.5 - 040705 (before that, I tried 4.5 and 4.6)
    -the Nvidia driver is now on version 370.28 (before I tried also 361.45, 364.19 and 367.44 370.28)
    In Windows (Pro 10, 64-bit), the same: the latest drivers are installed.

    I thought that maybe there is a problem with the SSD, and you can read here my question. No response.

    I really don't know what else to do.

  • Loading Linux image

    When I try to load an image of javafx:

    I have an InvalidArgumentExcpetion (using linux, but works well under windows).

    Hello

    If you have the Setup file to install the program, you can copy it to a USB stick and install it on another computer. You can also install the program by using an installation disc. If you do not have the configuration file, you will not be able to install the program.

    Thank you.
