• USB ports on Pavilion dm4 - 2055ca

  Hello

  The USB ports on the right side of my laptop (next to the CD drive) cannot hold the USB 2.0 flash drives? When I bought this computer, I thought I read there is USB 3.0 ports. I thought 3.0 ports were backward compatible with 2.0 devices. Unless I'm completely mistaken...

  I have only a USB 2.0 port. Both right do not fit the discs of 2.0 inch, but they are marked with the USB symbol. If not 2.0, what are these two ports?

  The right devices are USB 2.0. I suspect that you don't pay enough attention to the orientation of the connector that adapt you to the USB port of your laptop. You will see a matt black plastic piece in the port and in the connector of the USB device. Above the matte black plastic on the device part must be adapted to the matte black plastic on the port part or vice versa, the following image is of the GET to know your guide to Windows Notepad for your laptop.

  

  The following image is of the Maintenance & Service guide for your laptop. If there is no label that says SS USB ports are USB 2.0 specification.

  

• Pavilion dm4 - 1201us: upgrade to Windows 10 with a computer that refuses to install Windows 7 SP1

  I would like to be able to update my old laptop W7 with W10, however, I am unable to do so, due to the fact that after replacing the hard drive, then allowing a 'grumpy' friend to manage the installation of the OS, I'm unable to install SP1 that is required for the free update.

  Any help?

  Other information: the laptop came originally with "Windows 7 Home Prem OA" but is now underway "Windows 7 Unlimate" and I have no recovery disk for the original W7 supplied with the machine.

  EDIT: Also, when I run Windows Update, SP1 or in a separate file, I get the same error. Here is a picture of the error of the SP1 folder.

  

  Unfortunately, it seems that your hacker friend installed an improved version of Windows 7 and now it is not authentic so it will not be updated.

  You can try the suggestions in this post from TechNet and see if you can correct it. I used your error message to find this info.

  If you are not successful this, then you should contact HP to get reinstall disks so that you can install the version of Windows 7 OEM. You will have to do all the updates, but it should be able to do.

  Unless you have an email or a packaging of retail with an improved version of Windows and a key, you will encounter this kind of problem. The version of your operating system must match the key you have.

• Need help with problems upgrade memory on Pavilion DM4

  I have a Pavilion DM4 1201us with original DDR3 2x2gb memory cards.

  I bought a pair of Corsair DDR3 1333 Mhz 4 GB memory cards.

  I have the latest BIOS (F.27) and I'm running the OEM Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - Bit. SP1.

  The BIOS recognizes the 8 Gb and when I run the BIOS memory test it runs without error.

  When I try to boot Win7, it gets somewhere before the logon screen and makes a BSOD with a message about a new memory being installed.

  I went back the Corsair Memory cards, but you need to know if there is a problem with any upgrade up to 8 GB of memory with my particular setup. HP offers an upgrade to 8 GB with the same spec boards. (I'm beyond the warranty period!)

  Any thoughtts?

  Interesting!

  I can tell you that the model only supports 8 GB memory: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02704310

  Have you tried more than one kit of 8 GB?

  The reason why I ask is with memory DDR sometimes reticular sticks will pass all the tests if the two sticks are installed then a stick could be bad without you knowledge.

  Also you tried a bar of 4 GB and a 2 GB stick to see how it worked?

• HP Pavilion dm4-1024tx Enterta: upgrade to 8 GB of memory and is blue screen problem

  Product: HP Pavilion dm4-1024tx Entertainment Notebook PC
  Product number: XC651PA
   
  I have corsair Vengeance ram 8 GB (CMSX8GX3M1A1600C10) that as a result of the configurations as mentioned below:
   
  SPD 9-9-9-24 latency
  SPD speed 1333 Mhz
  SPD voltage 1.5V
  PC3-12800 (1600 MHz) memo speed
  Tested latency 10-10-10-27
  Tested 1600 Mhz speed
  Tested voltage 1.5V
   
  It passes the test of memory BIOS.
   
  BIOS VERSION: Hewlett-Packard F.27, 21/12/2011
   
   
  But when I boot windows 7, it shows the windows symbol and then it shows the blue screen with the error
   
  STOP: 0X0000007E
   
  If I replace memory corsair with the memory that has been delivered with the laptop the system only works very well.
   
  Corsair memory is not compatible with the system?
   
  I have a dual boot and installed ubuntu on this subject. Ubuntu loads perfectly fine, but after a while the system restarts automatically (IE open application).
   
  I tried memorytest86 to test the memory, but the application continue to crash and reboot and does not provide any results.
   
  Help, please.

  The RAM is not compatible. The system allows a maximum total memory of 8 GB and uses DDR3-1333 which downclocks at 1066 speed. You cannot use a single module of 8 GB. 4 gigs is the large single module supports the system. I suspect the memory that you have will work fine if you had modules of 2 x 4 GB instead of a single module of 8 GB. That's why memtest is not finished. The controller memory motherboard is not able to take up 8 GB of RAM by a single channel.

• Pavilion dm4 touchpad

  I upgraded my Pavilion dm4 Entertainment notebook for Windows 10 and my touchpad has stopped working. All my settings are correct, and I checked to see if my touchpad driver was that it is up-to-date. I have no idea what to do. I have not had this problem before. It does not allow me to use it to scroll, highlight or click. All it will let me do is move the mouse and zoom in & out. It drives me crazy. Any suggestions?

  Hello

  Method 1.

  I suggest you completely uninstall the touchpad driver and reinstall.

  Follow these steps.

  • Press "Windows + X" and click on "Device Manager".

  • In the list of devices, you should see the drivers for the touchpad.

  • Right-click on the device and select "Uninstall".

  • In the dialog box uninstall, make sure that you select the option to remove the driver package from the system. This causes the installed driver package more soon to be deleted.

  • In the Device Manager Action menu, select ""find the hardware changes " option." This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.

  Method 2.

  Moreover, if there are no updated drivers available on the Web site of the manufacturer of the computer, then don't download the latest drivers and try to install in compatibility mode of Windows 8. Compatibility mode runs the program using settings from a previous version of Windows.

  Follow these steps to install the drivers in compatibility mode and check if that helps.

  a. download the driver from the manufacturer's website.

  b. right-click on the driver configuration file and click on 'Properties'.

  c. click the "compatibility" tab and check the box ' run this program in compatibility mode for " and select the Windows 8 operating system from the menu drop down and proceed with the installation. Once this is done, restart the computer and check if the problem persists.

  Response with the State of the question and we will be happy to offer you our help.

• HP Pavilion dm4-1150ea: Bluetooth stopped wotking on Pavilion DM4

  I have a HP Pavilion dm4-1150ea running under Windows 7 64-bit.

  I bought a receiver bluetooth audio and paired with the laptop and installed a driver. I was able to listen to audio to the receiver but when I closed the laptop and opened it later, it stopped working.

  I looked in Device Manager and the bloetooth radios are no longer there and there is no device under network adapters. They had been there before.

  I rebooted several times and it still does not work. I managed to do the work once and it coincided with put the power cable in. However, it did not work for a long time.

  HP Wireless Assistant says that Bluetooth is disabled in Device Manager.

  I tried to download the latest driver for bluetooth on the HP site, but it won't install because bluetooth is not running.

  At one point, I got a message saying that he was not a USB device. I can see a warning about "Unknown device" icon in the Device Manager USB controllers section.

  I tried to do a system restore, but that failed because it could not access a file.

  Any ideas how I can get blue tooth works again?
