Upgrade to Windows 10 is a matter of choice.  From what we have seen so far, it's safer and faster.  As long as there's no compatibility problems, go ahead.  Check the GWX icon at the bottom right of the screen to see if upgrade problems.

Look at this FAQ on Windows 10:

  • HP Pavilion t775.uk Windows 7 upgrade

    Hello world

    I upgraded my PC to Windows 7, but I don't know if all the drivers for the motherboard, especially the audio drivers are included in the installation of Windows 7.  With Windows XP, there is an audio program that identified the plugs at the front and the back of the PC and there is a facility to test the speakers and the microphone. Although everything seems to work OK, I would be grateful for any advice.

    HP Pavilion t775.uk Desktop

    Operating system Windows 7 (all updates downloaded and installed)

    Card mother Asus PTGD1 - audio and integrated graphics card

    I hope someone can help

    Hello:

    The specifications of the product indicate that your PC has a Realtek HD audio chip.

    Windows has installed a generic driver that works, but you can install the latest audio driver directly from Realtek which should provide the features and additional audio settings.

    Accept the agreement, download and install either the first or the second pilot on the list depending on whether your installation of W7 is 32 or 64 bit.

    Looking at the rest of the hardware of your PC came with, probably, everything else is fine.

    I am in a dilemma whether 'Upgrade on the spot' or 'Clean Install' for this reason.

    If I install clean, then only I will be able to use the secure boot and other related functions. Help, please.

    No need to worry.

    (5) go to the menu option to start by pressing the correct key of F (function key)

    (6) you should see an option to start (CD/DVD drive or USB key), ending with , select it.

    (7) install windows as usual, while scores first delete all existing partitions, and THEN only to make new partitions

    8) once that windows 8 is installed and up and running, restart your laptop and enter the BIOS setup

    9) go to boot options

    (10) disable legacy support.

    (11) load the HP Factory default keys

    (12) select the secure boot.

  • HP Pavilion p6210y: Office flashing after upgrade Windows 10

    I have a flashing desktop (goes black and office) after upgrade to Windows 10.  Once connected, it is fine for about 10-15 seconds, then it starts flashing. I couldn't do anything - click on anything except CTRL-ALT-DEL to go to the Task Manager.

    I did the upgrade 2 x already. Before my first attempt, I do nothing with my PC - I did not update the driver. When I arrived the office flashing after improvement, I panicked and immediately brought back to Windows 7. I was able to get to the window of recovery during the period of 10-15 seconds just after the connection. Fortunately, he returned to Windows 7.

    After the first test, I read a little about the similar problem and so I tried some of the proposed solutions - update the drivers on my PC, to disable reporting services Windows (all on 10 to win), to try to go to Safe Mode.

    So I tried again. I updated all the things I can to update (for most drivers) before the upgrade. Do you have PC Clean up. I had the office flashes again. It's the same thing. So while they are flashing, I tried to disable the windows reporting services that is very difficult to do with the Office of flashing. He did nothing clearly. So I went in Mode without failure. After starting in safe mode, I got the normal screen for about 5 seconds, but a blue window quickly flashed and then the desktop on Mode without failure just turned black, only the visible cursor.

    So, I rolled back to Windows 7 new.

    I don't have a lot of things/programs on my PC that I uninstall programs right away if I know that I will not use. I do scan of cleaning/Virus from PC on a regular basis.

    Information about my machine:

    HP Pavilion p6210y

    Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit

    Video card: NVIDIA GEForce 9100

    All the suggestions/help will be very appreciated.

    The only thing that solved the issue is reset my machine while keeping my personal files.

    I've never understood what really caused it.

    Thus, after the upgrade when the screen is flashing, I have reset the PC.

  • HP Pavilion & "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor came across a problem.

    Windows 7 would work on my laptop (HP Pavilion dv6132eu)?

    So I used "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor" of the Microsofts. Which caused the error "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor stumbled into a problem that your scanning devices. Upgrade Advisor needs to be able to scan your devices to determine whether your computer is capable of running Windows 7 ".

    The laptop is probably not good enough for Windows 7, why?

    I assumed, the Upgrade Advisor would tell me, what pieces of hardware is / are not specific to Windows 7.

    In a forum Technet, say, the Adviser is blocked by some HP hardware. Which?

    Best regards, Willem

    My problem has been resolved.

    Previously, the problem with "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor BETA.

    I waited two months - now, I executed the Adviser again, resulting in "an important upgrade".

    And guess: update Advisor works like a rocket, finishing with a nice report with minor problems.

    So I think that the problem was a "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor" - problem - not a HP computer laptop-problem.

  • HP Pavilion 17 Laptop: I've upgraded to Windows 8.1and get a dll error

    I have a HP Pavilion laptop. Windows 8, 64 bit I've finally upgraded to 8.1 Windows because my son said I should. It seems fine except for this error I get once I connect to the pc and I could be in Facebook or just browsing.  Error message reads as follows:

    Startup problem

    C:\Progra~1\COMMON~1\System\SysMenu.dll

    Specified module could not be found.

    I looked online for this error message. I see many say a word about malaware. I don't know what it is. As much I know it started right after the upgrade to 8.1 today.

    Any help or suggestion? Much appreciated!

    Hey @vmamw23,.

    Try watching this blog we give you a step by step solution. This link comes from a third party site. Please read everything before you start.

    You can do a System Restore. System Restore will help if something is automatically updated and wasn't on the laptop.

    When running a system restore note remove all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices because they can cause problems.

    It shows me it seems to be interference with the task of software, usually your virus protection.

    You may need to disable this software, and then run Windows Update.

    I hope this fixes things for you.

    Thank you.

  • Desktop a6530f Pavilion, new hard drive and upgrade to Windows 7

    I have a desktop Pavilion a6530f with Vista.  My hard drive has been the production of errors, so I bought a new hard drive.  The original hard drive works pretty well as I should be able to create a recovery with a usb flash drive media.  I want to install the new hard drive (Seagate 1 TB SATA 3), and then install Windows 7 upgrade on the new drive.  Will be the ASUS M2N68 - LA / Narra3-GLBE motherboard supports SATA 3 (SATA 2 pilot courses)?  If Yes, where can I get the drivers?  Is there a Web page on the HP site for upgrade to Windows 7 on a new hard drive?  Or I just follow the guests after boot of the Windows 7 upgrade disc and enter the code of Vista product from the label on the side of the PC?

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion a6530f. Based on the specifications, this model shipped from the factory with Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 64-bit installed. This model supports the use of disks SATA 3, however transfer speeds will be limited to the rates for the motherboard SATA 2. No special drivers are required. Seagate 1 TB SATA 3 drive should work fine on this computer, but you may have problems using your HP recovery discs if the new drive is a Format "Advance" AF drive.

    It is unlikely that you will be able to create a recovery media on a USB FlashDrive with this computer. In my view, that this model only supports the creation of recovery DVDs.

    You have a choice of a couple of paths when it comes to the installation of Windows on your computer with a new hard drive installed.

    (1) use your HP Vista recovery disks to install Vista... This may or may not work depending on the new hard drive installed. Then, upgrade to Windows 7 using the upgrade disc and the Windows 7 product key printed on the certificate of authenticity provided with the Windows 7 upgrade disk. (Note: the key of Vista with Windows 7 will not work)

    (2) If you don't mind losing the "value-added" software HP originally installed on the computer, you can install Windows 7 without using Vista installed first. Install Windows 7 using the upgrade disc and the Windows 7 product key printed on the certificate of authenticity provided with the Windows 7 upgrade disk. (Do not enter the key during the installation of the window) (Note: the key of Vista with Windows 7 will not work)

    In both cases just follow the prompts as needed. I suggest to use Windows 7 SP1, because it seems to be more compatible with the new material, including readers of the AF.

    Please see HP - upgrade to Windows 7 customer care using basic upgrade or install Windows 7. Please see HP Forum - how to install Windows 7 without the disc for useful information and download for Windows 7.

  • HP Pavilion DV3 - 4031TX Windows 7 32-bit upgrade to 64-bit with the OEM installation?

    Hi all

    I have a HP Pavilion dv3-4031TX that came with Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit OEM preloaded.

    I want to move to the 64 bit version of Windows 7.

    I have run Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor and confirmed that my hardware is compatible with Windows 7 64-bit.

    I don't mind doing a clean install.

    I have my product key OEM with me, but no disc (BONE came preloaded).

    Is it possible to switch to 64-bit by doing a system recovery?  If Yes, where can I change the installation options? (as clicking 'Custom' instead of 'Upgrade' in the retail version Installer)

    I'm not sure if the OEM installer comes with this option.  Can someone tell me? (screenshots will be appreciated)

    Another question, if the OEM Setup program does not come with 64 bit and I have to clean install the retail version, my OEM product key will work?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    No, this is going to work. You definitely need DVD setup and key in your work of peut of the machine. Hope this helps (burn to DVD and use it to install):

  • HP Pavilion g7-2298nr: WINDOWS 8 recovery software. I need to buy it

    I tried to order a set of recovery dissks for my

    HP Pavilion g7-2298nr Windows 8.0 and I continue to get bounced by trying to order because HP 'sees' 10 Windows is installed.

    The reason for the need to temporarily "downgrade", it's only once "upgraded" to Windows 10, the battery does not "Save".

    I have a HP 2000 who did exactly the same thing, and the reason was that he had to be flashed to a newer version of the BIOS.

    The G - 7 has Rev. F26 BIOS and I suspect that this device needs to have flashed bios, but when I try to access the DRIVERS/SOFTWARE section on the site of HP support that my "OS" is not being handled so therefore I can not all drivers or BIOS flash.

    I planned to do a temporary downgrade to enter 8 drivers etc etc and then upgrade to Windows 10.

    Any ideas?  Thanks

  • G6 2255 ev Pavilion: drivers for windows 10

    Hello
    I recently bought an SSD.
    so, I want to put windows from the start and I need all the RIGHT drivers for my laptop.
    I don't want to put bad drivers and will need to unistall them later.
    So I need the drivers for my laptop, 10 64-bit windows.
    could you tell me the exact drivers I need?
    the basic only... to work correctly!
    Thank you for your time.
    also, I would like to know the thickness of my dvd player, so I can buy a shopping cart of DVDs to my hard drive.
    Thank you once again!

    HP only provides drivers Windows 8 and 8.1 of Windows for your model. However, I have an older G6 Pavilion provided with Windows 7 installed, and I did it with success a clean install of Windows 10 on it. Since your computer was made for Windows 8, I assume that the upgrade process would be smoother for you.

    A little tip: I recommend that you have a wired Internet access available to your computer during the installation process so that Windows can download the drivers for your computer. I tried without a connected network cable, and I found myself with no Internet capacity after installation. I had to do another clean installation with a connected network cable, and this time the installer found all the correct drivers: map Wi - Fi button, graphic, touchpad, webcam, reader of cards, all. I didn't have to install anything manually.

    I can't advise you on the caddy HARD drive for your DVD burner, but I've seen messages on the subject in these discussion forums. I did replace my HARD original with an SSD drive.

    You can look at my profile and read my other posts for questions, I met with my BIOS. I hope that you will not face this problem because your machine is more recent.

    Good luck!
