• The speakers who turns off when a video begins to play or whatever it is its wise

  Hi I find that when I click on a video like on facebook or anything that requires my speakers, they turns off automatically after a few seconds and I don't hear anything, its so annoying. Anyone know what I need to do to ensure that this does not happen. I entered the audio portion on my control panel and had a look, but not I've done too much in case it ruins totally, but there must be a logical reason and if not, I need to go back to the shop of the computer that sold it for me I guess, but I hope can set up the speakers myself.

  Hello

  Could be heat related - try using a small fan to blow into the air intakes to see if that helps.
  It is just like it loses power or stop it in the normal way?

  Remove ALL power and reinstall all the memory cards and cables (both ends where possible).
  in fact, remove and replace - don't do not just tight. Remove the dust bunnies and clean the
  air vents. Check that fans are working (before and after opening the case). When your laptop on all the
  You can do is to reinstall the memory and clean the vents (still may try to add a small fan as a
  test).

  This sounds like material so if the above does not help you then probably need help

• Laptop turns off on off on off on--will not stop!

  We have a dv6812nr Pavilion dv6700 model number that lights up for about 2 seconds (LED lights up but not black screen error message) but then goes off for a few seconds, then on, then turned off, then on, then off.  Repeat this process until we have hold the power button until it turns off constantly, or until the battery is removed.  Tried to remove the RAM sticks one at a time to see if it was a problem, but he did the same thing with each stick/off voltage.  Tried F8 and F10 to see if we could get up to a point located to perform some troubleshooting, but no.  Will not... just like marketing and works... stubborn.  Any other suggestions?  Thanks in advance.

  I have a DV6768se, which does the same thing. It is partly resolved like that.

  I removed the battery and the back cover at the centre. I found the button cell for the motherboard, I removed and I left the laptop for about an hour. It allowed the bios reset the values by default, and then the computer will start and everything will work fine, until it will stop suddenly because of a mysterious reason and I had to repeat the same process to bring it to life.

  Based on the post I've seen so far, this problem is related to the corruption of the Bios. I'm still in the process to get a correct solution. Two of them I've tried so far is as below:

  1 downloaded wood HP update web site, it will not download not error 'for this machine. HP customer service is horrible - no support on this.

  2 tried to do system restore, the process is stuck at 0% to "formatting the hard drive" for about 5 minutes and then the screen turns white.

  3 has tried to load Windows XP, which formats the hard drive, load all the files, but will not accept the Windows XP serial numbers (all the good numbers from my other machines)

  Finally I ordered the HP system restore CD, but I'm stuck with the same white screen again after blocked for five minutes at 0% to the formatting of the scene of the hard drive.

  I bought another laptop HP (still under warranty) battery does not charge sometimes and some keys don't work. Terrible quality compared to the Dell laptops I've had to date.

  Any help is appreciated. HP technical support will not sing unless feed you the at least $99 and looking at the quality of their technical support so far, I'm sure it will be a waste. I prefer to sell it on ebay and buy a Dell.

  My next laptop will probably be NO HP.

• Pavilion Elite M9040N turns on or turns off continues

  I have a Pavilion Elite M9040N media center desktop computer and it began to turn and turns off constantly.  The fans, the DVD player and the power that all light turns on for about 3-4 seconds then it turns off for 3-4 seconds, then starts the cycle again.  Does not get the bios start and nothing appears on the monitor.  I changed the power supply hoping that was the problem but no luck.

  Anyone encountered this before?

  Anyone know what is happening?

  Thank you

  Final update

  Thus, the slot and off tension of the issue was due to a fault on the motherboard.  In order to get what they functional system once again I have had to replace the motherboard and video card (I don't know why, but this card is not as well).  I also replaced both of the hard drives, upgrade to the C: 1.5 TB drive and a D: 2 TB drive and power.  I bought a new copy of windows 7 64 bit and did a new install and updated all the drivers.  I was able to transfer all of our data, photos, music, etc. among the old readers on the nine with an external SATA cable.

  I'm happy to be up and running again but in hindsight, I have pretty much rebuilt all of the computer.  I hope that this will last a few years.

  Thanks for all your help and suggestings

• Pavilion 17z-F200 CTO: How do I change turn on the num lock (NumLock) key have a State by default to it?

  How do I change turn the num lock (NumLock) key a Pavilion 17z-F200 CTO to have a State default one?

  System BIOS has no setting for it. By another post, I tried to set the value of register in HKEY_USERS\. Default\Control Panel\Keyboard for "InitialKeyboardIndicators" of "2147483648" to "2147483650. It seems not to change after a reboot.

  Yes, the BIOS settings was the first thing I checked. But BIOS seems to only contain States in order for the locks of keys on the new HP Pavilion or Envy laptop.

  I did more research and found more credible sources to TechNet asking to change the same registry value to 2. I tried it and it works a fact/do.

• Hello, please help me. I use a power keyboard for my laptop. I see in the new keyboard is equipped with a num lock key is turned on. I can't use on it please help me disable it. I do not use a NumLock on. Thank you

  Hello, please help me. I use a power keyboard for my laptop. I see in the new keyboard is equipped with a num lock key is turned on. I can't use on it please help me disable it. I do not use a NumLock on. Thank you

  You say that when you press the NUM LOCK key, the Numlock State does not change (if enabled to disabled and vice versa)?  Have you tried to unplug the keyboard and by ensuring that the keyboard of the laptop does not have enabled Numlock?  If so, turn it off on the laptop keyboard and reinsert the another keyboard and see if the problem is resolved.

  If you do not need the Numlock key, it can be disabled at startup with the following procedure:http://www.technipages.com/enabledisable-numlock-at-login-or-startup.html. Once this is done, I don't think he's going to turn on or off and that they the keyboard will start in the off position.  You will not be able to use the key yourself or another, but maybe the problem she is on (which is worse than it to be impossible to be turned on) will be resolved and I hope it will be enough for you.

  If the key does not work and you want to be able to use it, the keyboard may be defective.  Try the keyboard on another computer and see if you have the same problem.  If so, the keyboard is defective and must be replaced.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Turn on the NUM LOCK at startup

  How edit you InitialKeyboardIndicators in the Publisher of the registry for num lock is turned on at startup? Only instructions I've read says to change the value to 2.  The number that is already present is 2147483648, which I have no idea what it represents.  Can someone help me out here? Thank you

  By default the NumLock State is the same as it was before you shut down the computer properly. If it is on when you shut it down it will be on when you turn on the computer again.

• Num Lock turns off

  When I restart Windows 8 the Num Lock key turns off.  Why? How can I stop this happening?

  I found that if I reboot, NumLock remains sometimes, other times it doesn't. If I stop completely and then restart, it never stays.

  However, I have found a fix (sort of) (for a computer that has the problem)
  I created the office and shortcuts start screen on all my computers to close and restart their with 1 click in the instructions on: http://blog.laptopmag.com/how-to-shutdown-windows-8-in-just-one-click and this seems to have finally solved the problem. The NumLock key is always present when I shut down and restart this computer.
  Now I can deal with other problems that this computer is having since I've upgraded to Windows 8 Pro on this subject.

• How can I turn off the beep sound on Num lock, cap lock, and scroll lock keys

  How can I disable the beep on the cap lock NumLock and scroll stop?

  There is a good chance that you can turn off the beeps by pressing the NumLock key for a little more than 5 seconds. Here's where the ToggleKeys setting are stored.

  Go to the Ease of Access Center Control Panel and click make the keyboard easier to use.

  

  Search for Activate the ToggleKeys in the section make it easier to type and uncheck Activate the ToggleKeys. You can uncheck turn on ToggleKeys by pressing the Numlock for 5 seconds more.

  Be sure to click on OK endangered.

  Addendum: more information in the Microsoft Accessability tutorial.

• Num Lock and Caps Lock flashes twice

  Hi, I have a problem with a laptop HP DV4-2045dx who is now 5 days out of warranty.

  He has decided to no longer start, and never shows anything on the screen.  When turned on, the power light, fan and light volume bar upwards and after about 10 seconds, the plugs and caps lock Num lock light flashing 2 x and make a break before repeating many times.

  I tried to remove the HDD, memory, reinstalling NIC. I have made the power off the power, remove the battery and holding the button works / stop 20 seconds without change. I also removed the CMOS battery for 30 minutes.  I left the laptop on it during the night with no luck he restore the bios, I also left unplugged without battery for several hours.

  HPs site tells me that the BIOS is damaged, based on the lights flash.

  So how you fix a corrupted bios when the laptop does not start? Should it be sent repair, and whether someone has an estimate for this repair?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  * EDIT * I know that the HARD drive is bad, the laptop stopped booting (it would be only goto repair windows and my HARD drive diagnostic tool there not this day.  After a few other boot attempts from this start white screen)

  It finally sets the strangest way... removed from the memory and jumped into a 512MB stick older... booted up.  Shut donw and put the 2x2gb sticks in and functioning again.

  Running memtest now to see if it was bad or not.  If not... its waiting just for a recovery by post media.

• Want to m6 - on keyboard num lock button

  M6 - envy I can't tell when the num lock key is on when I use the keyboard on the right side. This creates a problem when you type the number of password and I need to stop and remember to use the keys on the top. How will I know if it's on or not? Nothing (no lights on the cover lock) lights up. Nothing in the taskbar or the other.

  Thank you

  Hello Cageycat,

  You have a problem don't know not if your key for the nun is activated.

  Go to HP.com and update the keyboard driver when it exists and also in the BIOS.

  Here is a link to updates. You will need your product number.

  You can also go to ease of access and change the settings of toggle keys.

  • Go to start of easy access type and press on enter
  
  
  • Scroll and click on create the keyboard easier to use
  
  
  • Check the turn ToggleKeys on.

  This will give you a sound when the keys are on.

  I would like to know how everything goes.
