• HP ENVY 14-1000 CTO Notebook: fact ENVY 14 t - 1000 CTO (2010) have UEFI firmware?

  This model (from worms 2010) he UEFI firmware? I don't see any indication that it made, with Windows, information system, the Mode "BIOS" is "legacy". I do not see switches to BIOS legacy in BIOS emulation is set up.

  But this would be the case of paranoia, that there no UEFI firmware, but I did it is legacy emulation mode continuously or something?

  Confusingly, the Web site offers an enigmatic named "HP update BIOS UEFI." Just an update (which I was not able to install) it changes from one thing to another?

  It was an interesting experience.

  He was able to start the "HP PC Hardware Diagnostics (UEFI)," How about that?

  So, the answer is that it can start binary EFI, but there must be another reason that my operating system is not booting in this way.

• How can I install windows7 alongside windows 8 on a pc of UEFI firmware

  I've been a fan of windows8, but now I just can tolerate more. I find myself posting several times on the forum because I bought a pc brand new windows8 in June 2013. Windows8 is a cool OS but I can't take more with the problems, he gave me. I find myself punching my pc because of the anger and closing the lid really hard because I hate windows8 performance.

  First question:

  My wireless lan driver is horrible. I can't download large files on my pc because my computer disconnects every 10 minutes after I connect to a wireless network.

  Second question:

  My mouse sucks. I was a big presentation in my school and the next thing I knew was that my mouse had disappeared from the screen. It's really annoying because I had to reinstall the drivers, then restart the computer on a projection screen. This happens often and it is one of the reasons why I want windows7 on a partition.

  Third question:

  Most of my keys on the keyboard still stop sometimes. Most of the letters or homework, I type on my laptop must be checked several times before submitting it.

  I tried to install windows7 on my pc on a different partition, but it simply doesn't. I know that its to cause of UEFI firmware and I have put it in legacy mode, but my windows8 will not start when I do this. I have seen and read a lot of posts, but it doesn't seem to work. At one time I tried to install mac that wasn't a good idea.

  How can I install Windows7 alongside windows8

  PS: I love windows8, but I can't use this operating system more at school because it bothers me a lot.

  If you keep the computer abuse, you have nothing to use or reinstall Windows 7 on. Treat the system with the best care.

  Are you sure that most of your problems with Windows 8 is not related to:

  1 driver with your network card problem?

  2 have you tried to connect to the Internet with a wired connection to see if the problem persists?

  3. have you checked for Mouse/touchpad update the drivers from the manufacturers Web site?

  4. it looks like the issue with the keyboard and all the problems, may be chipset related, you can also consult the manufacturer of your laptop site for driver chipset update.

  5. considering that your system was manufactured in June of 2013, it probably came with Windows 7, Windows 8 No, you would of course, was given a free upgrade to Windows 8 depending on the date of purchase.

• Satellite Pro R50-B-12N OCZ Vertex 460 has UEFI Install

  Hello world

  I'm having a great problem with tent to install an SSD in one of our Toshiba laptops and allowing the UEFI. Here is a brief summary of the components involved:

  OCZ Vertex 460 has SSD installed to replace the mechanical HARD drive. -SSD Firmware is up to date
  Toshiba Satellite Pro Portable R50-B-12N - BIOS version is 1.40, CBS version is 1.20
  Windows 7 Enterprise X 64 install
  MDT 2013 1 update to deploy to
  Starting to install Windows 7 with Lite Touch PXE deployment
  Secure boot is disabled
  UEFI enabled

  When I try to install a Windows 7 image, the original MDT deployment process works correctly with no error message. The disc seems to be partitioned correctly for an EFI boot disk, and extracted the install.wim file on the windows partition. Unattend.Xml apply and restart the laptop.

  Each reboot the laptop, however, an error message appears asking to install a system disk and press a key to continue. I don't know this error happening if a startup disk is not detected or the hard disk fails.

  Interestingly, if I disable UEFI and start again the deployment process, this problem does not occur. The laptop restarts and continues the installation without problem when running in MSC mode.

  Can someone answer the following for me queries please?

  (1) if I run in MSC mode, I feel that UEFI is say-abled, so I don't get any of the benefits of the use of instead of the UEFI BIOS. Is this correct?

  (2) Windows 7 is able to UEFI boot as long as Secure Boot is disabled. As it is a SATA drive, there is no drivers needed for this HARD drive to work (according to he site OCZ)-I do not think it is a driver error, as the operating system does not load.

  (3) If you need more details regarding this flaw could list you for me to recover? I have to clean and reinstall the laptop each time in order for me to do now.

  I'd appreciate any help with the above error. Currently, I think it's a fault with the application of portable computers UEFI boot but I would like a third opinion on this if possible?

  Thank you for your time and help with this query.

  Kind regards

• Can not enter the parameters of the UEFI firmware

  I bought a new 660ti for my new computer

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16883256815

  When I put in and plugged the screen remained black as if one has not been connected with the 'PC' in the right corner of the screen. I took the 660ti and put in my 560ti who was from an old computer that I had before I bought 800-060 and it worked just like it did when I bought the new computer, no problem, no nothing.

  People have said on different forums on how if secure startup is enabled and not inherited boot it won't work, considered most successful. But as usual with HP computers I buy, there is always something wrong with the bios and I can't find a solution anywhere.

  When I fly over the right side of the screen, go to "settings - change the settings of pc - General - advanced startup - restart" and when I finally get to change the settings of the UEFI and restart again, it is just a pure black screen and nothing happens until I quit and restart it, followed by a beep code, 6 short on about 7 intervals however I could be wrong on how many times he made 6 beeps in a row. Then it starts up as usual.

  I really don't want to have to take it to staples or another computer repair place, or my card back to Amazon.

  (another thing to note).

  When I put the 660ti in my old computer, it doesn't have a picture, but it seemed that someone poured water everywhere inside the monitor or as a NES game that had not been blown before putting it in the console and the resolution was about 800 x 600 in the monitor. I tried to activate the onboard graphics on this subject and it bricked essentially because there is no display on it at all. but I'm not worried about it as I am my new computer.

  Thank you

  Here are the specifications of your desktop HP ENVY Phoenix 800 computer - 060 According to the specification, this model comes with Windows 8 and has a BIOS with "Secure Boot" enabled and disabled ' Legacy Support'. You change all the parameters "UEFI", simply to DISABLE "Secure Boot" and ACTIVATE the standby mode 'legacy' in the BIOS.

  Please see "the computer does not start after the installation of a video (Windows 8) card" for the reason why your computer is not working with your new graphics card. First, remove all graphics cards after-sales market and return the graphics card to origin plant or use the onboard integrated graphics card to get into the BIOS. Once in the BIOS, you can change the settings as needed. Now, reinstall your new graphics card (be sure to connect the auxiliary PCIe power connector) and restart your computer... problem solved.

• UEFI firmware workstation and badly written (by me) el-torito images

  Hi all

  First of all, I am aware of that option UEFI in VMware workstation cannot be supported. If you can't answer that, it's okay.

  -Very well, background. I am a developer working for a backup software company and one of my main tasks at present is in charge the UEFI boot for all our rescue media. To cut a long story short, our application using imapi2 API to write an ISO image that we can then burn to a disc; Alternatively, you can just use the ISO.

  
  It turns out that if you try to set the product using this API id, strange things happen. Specifically, when you create the entry of UEFI, you get:

  Section header entry:

  The heading indicator: 0 x 91 (final Section header entry)

  PlatformId: 0xef (EFI)

  Section of the entries: 1

  "" ID ":

  Section of boot catalog entry:

  Entry is bootable

  Bootable media emulation type: 1.44 MB floppy Emulation

  Loading the media address: 0 (0x0000)

  System type: 0 (0x00)

  Areas of responsibility: 2880 (0x0b40)

  Support LBA: 352 (0 x 00000160)

  (the/path/to/iso-i dumpet results).

  The problem here is that the entrance to the EFI is set to the emulation of 1.44 MB. It is of my (Finally, the API)-said the fault and the UEFI specification it must be set to "no emulation".

  This dubious ISO does not start when fed real hardware, as the firmware there fortunately sulk technical violation and goes out to find a real volume EFI to start. However, I have noticed workstation is a little more tolerant. I can start such a dubious iso!

  So my question is, workstation is simply ignore the emulation field? Or if boot failure? I actually wonder if this was the intended behavior, or if I misinterpreted the spec - this is not a critical issue.

  Thank you

  Antony

  Hi Antony again,

  There is a robust statement a little more on this subject to the beginning of article 2: "UEFI support starting from the media that contain an OS UEFI charger or a UEFI System Partition defined. A defined UEFI System Partition is required by the UEFI to start from a block device. "(Probably all other media non-bloc to which she refers, containing an OS loader but no System Partition, use EFI_LOAD_FILE_PROTOCOL.)  Only a single statement is not reinforced elsewhere in the specification, throughout many places that the issue would be considered relevant.

  Unfortunately, there is rather a list of already released OS for which the installation media provides the EFI bootloader in a partition described by an entry "emulation" without any input of non-emulation 0xEF... at least Fedora 11 and 12, SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop and Server 10 and 11, openSuSE 11 and Asianux 3.

  Then... the closest I can come to a conclusion on the issue is to say that starting from an entry "emulation" maybe not the intention of the authors of the [U] EFI specification, as you seem to have also concluded... However it seems to me be advised to support for reasons of compatibility, and it seems within reason for a software provider to implement this support.

  See you soon,.

• Cannot set UEFI after upgrade to 8.1 Windows (P6 HP 2364ea)

  Hello

  I recently bought a HP P6 (Pavilion) 2364ea tower that came with Windows 8 is installed. When buying I could enter the parameters of UEFI at startup by pressing one of the function keys. Now that I have upgraded to 8.1 Windows no splash screen or UEFI settings are available when booting - any function keys I type.

  I tried to reboot to the Windows Advanced Boot-> troubleshoot-> advanced options-> settings for UEFI firmware road but the PC starts just to a white screen with no hard disk activity. I then reboot into Windows 8. The same thing happens if I try to change the windows startup options.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you

  I have now managed to access the UEFI settings using an old VGA monitor to start instead of my screen thanks to a post of dave2009 on another thread. For anyone having the same problem here is his message:

  I hope it will work for you or someone else. I felt the same way - try to access the settings of the PC UEFI firmware and got a screen empty every time. Tried the ridiculous press F10 every second. Nada.

  Fortunately, I came across this post that put me on my solution. It's actually the BIOS could not display on my monitor (s).

  The BIOS has been there all along, but I didn't know it.

  My setup is a HP Envy with Intel HD graphics office built in connected with DVI to HDMI cables to 2 HP w2338h monitors that have a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 or more. Solution? Unplug everything and plug an older monitor CRT HP with a VGA to DVI. Seriously. My new HP desktop cannot display the HP BIOS on my HP flat screens. Now, I'm not going to dig into this but I suspect even just plug one of the flat screens equipped with a VGA connector could do the trick.

  And wa - la. My firmware is not corrupt. I need not do anything crazy. I just needed to downgrade my video connectors in order to see the bios. And, now that I have my graphics card inherited here, I see this cute bootscreen of HP. Previously, black until the windows open. It's a whole new world!

• HP Pavilion 17 Laptop: SP72853: updated Diagnostics hardware UEFI and Dual boot

  On my HP Pavilion 17 laptop, I have a sollution to dual-boot Microsoft Windows 10 (upgrade to 8.1 pre-installed) and Debian Linux 8.

  In order to start Debian (my main system of fact), I disabled the feature of 'safe start' UEFI. Ago, there was news that Microsoft's UEFI specification had changed and that its previous policy of mandatory "turn off secure boot UEFI" was now an option "enable disabling secure boot UEFI.

  In other words, if I understand it, BIOS/UEFI firmware designed after that Microsoft's policy change can now either you allow to disable secure boot UEFI and allow you to use an alternative OS, such as Debian Linux or they can force UEFI secure boot on you and in this case, you cannot start a system like Debian...

  Thus, with regard to the update UEFI available for my system, SP72853, before installing... I can always disable UEFI secure boot with this update?

  Also, I noticed there is an even more recent update for my UEFI, which I assume that I will be offered to install once SP72853 has been installed. Thus, the same question about SP73263: I can always disable UEFI secure boot with this update of UEFI?

  OK, so I advanced and tested myself.

  First of all, I saved a copy of the previous update of the UEFI (SP72230), so I could go down to him if necessary.

  So I just installed the update through HP Support Assistant, and indeed I can always choose to disable Secure Boot in the BIOS setup and boot Linux very well.

  Just for info.

  EDIT: The latest update did not become an option available on HP Support Assistant now. The diagnostics UEFI version number is however one of the (5.9.0) SP72853 not the most recent one (5.9.1).

• Can't see BIOS UEFI more Windows 8 after formatting hard drive

  After formatting my hard drive, I don't see the opportunity to get into the BIOS/UEFI firmware anymore. It has disappeared from the troubleshooting Windows 8.1. It happened because I had to reinstall Windows because I wanted to put Windows on the SSD drive, that I adapted. Firstly tried to transfer files to Windows from the HARD drive that went successfully but my problem was trying to get the HP BIOS so he can start, he had no option as I saw in the other BIOS, select the name of the SSD drive and turn it on just for 1 St boot, (the SSD has been installed properly so she did state in the BIOS on other things and in the windows to) the only thing that he had in this BIOS is a command to start menu I dragged the SSD to the first boot. Windows restarted and it wouldn't boot from SSD yet, so I put it in legacy mode that came to the top with my SSD info to start first, but when I saved these settings and rebooted Windows it says has no disc or can't find windows. So that's how I got where I am now and had to reinstall Windows to get it working again. Can't find away to get the BIOS/UEFI on windows 8 Troubleshooting menu option more?

  Hello

  The way most simple and easiest way to solve your dilemma to use the HP recovery media to build on the SSD system use the same SATA port that is used by the original Windows 8 boot drive. I know that this procedure works, at least on the PC that I used.

  I'm not a fan of 'cloning' of hard disks to boot HP UEFI active.  There are simply too many problems. Using the HP with a SSD recovery holder sized to accept all the original HP recovery system. This includes not user data. Then use your original hard drive as a device of emergency start and space remaining for the storage of data.
