Need Switchable Graphics for Windows 8 after upgrade?
Hey guys,.
I see several issues where people lose their switchable graphics after upgrade to Windows 8.
Now, is the first step, we want to take
- Check and see if your mobile phone is supported by Windows 8.
You can check HERE to see if it is supported.
- If the laptop is supported by Windows 8 HP website and your product type # in the next selection > and then select the operating system > click Next > and look under the section that says "Driver - Graphic" and start the download.
It will be the call to users to go and download these drivers. Now that could be a hit or miss.
SO BE VERY CAREFUL OF ANYTHING TRY YOU AND DOWNLOAD IMITATING SWITCHABLE GRAPHICS DRIVERS.

I hope it's useful!

Switchable graphics for windows 8.1
When I arrived to my laptop it was switchable graphics, then, I upgraded my windows to windows 8.1 8. After I did it I downloaded the AMD catalyst driver that was specifically for windows 8.1 and now for switchable graphics functionality disappeared. Does this mean that when I go to the games he will automatically know to use my graphics for AMD / Intel graphics card?
The way to do is to download and install the package from the HP AMD and to install all. Then download the driver for AMD thenadapter and installi for the AMD HD graphics card via Device Manager. This can be a decent workaround. Try it and share your results. It is the catalyst control panel located on the HP support server that is specially coded switchable graphic interface, not the driver.

Hi, I'm having a problem with my laptop. I bought my laptop online, a year ago, and I got a virus. Then, I had my computer reset and I need a code for Windows Vista from the bottom of my laptop. After looking through records and information, we found that he had no number. He worked initially but then recently he was asked for a product key or something of the sort code. I was using my laptop but I cannot customise my background etc.
Can you help me?
Thank you very much
The code is located on a label and is a 25-digit alpha-numeric (and very hard to read) code separated into 5 groups of 5 numbers separated by dashes. If you can't find it on the bottom of your laptop, open the battery housing and remove the battery and look there - I know of cases where this is where it was placed.
If you can't find the product key, your only choice is to contact the manufacturer and see if they can help. Sometimes the relocations made with recovery disks don't need to be activated (depends on the manufacturer and their recovery process must ask them and confirm before you spend money on the recovery discs). A valid product key is required for activation if activation is required - there is no way around this problem. And in case you are considering on it, you can't switch from one product not enabled - you need to do a clean and complete installation (update disc will not work).
I hope this helps and that the manufacturer can help you.
Good luck!

Reinstall Windows 7 after upgrade to 8
Hello. I wonder if it's LEGAL to return to Windows 7 after upgrading to Windows 8. I don't know the overview of consumption, but the final version since October 25. I have a laptop HP with pre installed Windows 7. I can simply restore Windows 7 and continue without a reactivation? How would this work? And what will happen on the disk to upgrade of Windows 8? I have an image of windows 7 to reinstall. I'm not worried about windows.old folder. I was wondering about the legality of the process.
Thank you, Andre Da Costa for all info on how to do. While it was useful, but I wanted to know if it is legal to do so.
Perfectly legal, because the machine has obtained a license for this.

I need a link for windows 7 starter 32 bit X 16-96078
I need a link for windows 7 starter 32 bit X 16-96078. If possible!
Hello
HP do not offer a download for the recovery media option, but there are two options available.
1. you can order a set of replacement of the recovery media using the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office). They will also recreate all of the original scores, including the recovery Partition.
2 you can use the following method to create your own Windows 7 Starter 32-bit installation media.
Before you try the following, make sure that you can still read all the key character product activation 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).
An example of a COA label can be seen here.
You can create Windows 7 installation yourself using another PC. However, it not there no download directly available for Windows 7 Starter, so you'll need to download another version (one will do, but the link below is for Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit - the source of the image is Digital River).
Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit SP1.
For the key on your label of COA to work, you must now use the method described in the following link to convert this ISO to an all-version Installer - the section that require you to edit the ISO is Step 1 DVD universal (although you will create an installer from usb, the method to change the ISO is the same).
http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/85813-Windows-7-universal-installation-disc-create.html
Once done, use an application like Rufus to create a bootable Windows 7 usb flash drive.
Use the Flash drive to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA in the request and one time Setup is complete, use the 'method of phone", described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

You may need for your laptop, software and additional pilots are in entering either the complete model number or Nr here.
Kind regards

We need a replacement for Windows Home Server that does not cost $700
We need a replacement for windows home server that does not cost as much as a PC. 2011 is not really available and 2008 has compatibility problems, because it is based on XP and Server 2003. None of the motherboard manufactures will support XP (thanks to MS) and more recent SATA drives do not work in my motherboard more old.

This issue is beyond the scope of this site (for consumers) and to be sure, you get the best (and fastest) reply, we have to ask either on Technet (for IT Pro) or MSDN (for developers)* -

Original title: Network Driver issues on Macbook Pro
I just use Boot Camp to install Windows 7 on my Macbook Pro. My question is, why he does not download and install the drivers to allow me to connect to a network? I can't connect to the internet on Windows and Im getting very irritated with all the help saying to go online when I do not have the right drivers to do. I was literally just $90 for doing absolutely nothing. Any help is appreciated.

Hello Steven_29,
In order to use switchable graphics, you will need to go to HP.com and download the driver for Windows 8 if it is available.
If this isn't the case, you may need to go back to win7 to use switchable graphics.
Here is a ">link to another thread that Cloud_Strider posted which may help.
I would like to know how everything goes.
