• Cannot physically remove the hard drive from the Pavilion dv4-1430us

  The disk hard origianal in this Pavilion dv4-1430us makes mechanical noises, so I will try to replace it with a new one.  I checked the owner's manual supplied with the dv4-1430us, and it gives these instructions (here condensed): 1) remove the power cord and disconnect the battery, 2) remove the hd plastic cover, 3) remove three screws of hard drive now the hd casing in place and 4) pull hard hd tab to the left then go out.

  The problems are: A) there is no hard drive to draw labels, and B) after you remove the three screws, can't do the hd if I push on it to move to the right or remove it from the left.  I don't want to use tools like screwdriver large flat blade or bars of little Crow because it seems like that would probably break something.  Does anyone know how to remove the hard drive of this particular model without breaking something?

  HaggisCat,

  Thanks for a very detailed and quick response.  It turns out the indications that I read in the manual, your statements and mine were all in line to exert a force on the hard drive in the direction indicated by the red arrow on your image.  (A picture is worth a thousand words and your supplied photo clarity that my summary of instructional text has not.)  I decided to take a picture of the entire hard drive in my dv4-1430us (see below) to show that there is no close tab Mylar pull, as there is on the photo you condition.   (The same gray metal tab that appears in your photo, but no mylar tab).

  

  Apparently my dv4-1430us had some differences at its Assembly of HD compared to yours.  As you can see, the structural elements that surround the HD are very similar to those of your photo, but there is no narrow mylar like in your photo tag.  There is a dark mylar or similar film plastic on top of my HD, and there is a triangle of silver color at the bottom right of this film that points in the same direction as your red arrow.  I tried lifting up the end of this film, mylar and pulling that direction (to the right in this picture), but a part of it (in the upper right corner of this photo) began to tear.  As the film seems to only be glued on the top edge of the caddy HD (also called frame or cage in some articles), I doubted that the show was strong enough to eliminate the stress of a closed winching.  A comrade who has put a video on YouTube showing this procedure also indicated that he had torn this layer of film when he first attempted to remove the HD.  Because I assume that the dark film has a purpose (static protection?)  I gave up shooting at the right edge of the film.

  However the consistency of the instructions in the manual, the instructions on this YouTube video and instructions in your answer on the direction in which the Assembly needed to move HD gave me the courage to put a force pushing the HD in the direction of your red arrow.  To do this, I placed the tip of a flat blade screwdriver large (blade about 5/16 "wide) at the points indicated at the ends of the two yellow arrows in my picture.  In these positions, the blade of screwdriver pushed against the HD box and not the hard drive itself.  Each of these two places, I gave him some very closed but controlled scrimmages, and HD finally moved in the direction of your red arrow as it is supposed to.  I then lifted all of the HD and replaced the HD without incident.

  The action drag the new HD in place was much easier that it was removing the original HD for the first time.  It was perhaps because of some hard rubber padding that has been placed on each side of the original HD assembly that makes for a very tight fit.

  I hope that this description is useful for others who do not have used mylar tab in their computers laptops dv4 and those whose HD assemblies are very tight in.  Thanks again for your quick response that gave me enough comfort to move forward.

• Pavilion dv4 1430us: Pavilion dv4 1430us stuck button mute

  The button mute on my Pavilion dv4 1430us is stuck on red, and no sound comes out of the speakers. Sound will come with headphones. When I hit the mute button, it will not change to blue. I tried to download a new BIOS, but that did not work. I think that result to download a bunch of long updates of Windows.

• HP PAVILION DV4-3008TX: cannot detect Video card (Radeon 6750 m)

  Dear Sir.

  I would like to know why my laptop can't detect my graphics (Radeon 6750 m). It shows that construction graphic card intel. I already try to use system restore and restore the original factory mode. It will appear but after updating my drivers and restart my laptop.  My laptop cannot detect the video card again.

  Please help me solve this problem

  for you reference

  http://Tinypic.com/r/2it67ex/8

  You will need to activate the card Radeon HD using the Catalyst Control Center.

  Once you do that the adapter appears in Device Manager.

  If you use the Intel HD graphics card, only the graphics card Intel will be seen in Device Manager.

  I know that may seem strange, but it's one of the features of having a switchable graphics capable laptop computer.

  The following URL goes to a switchable graphics overview. Take a few minutes and read it. It should help to simplify the understanding.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-dv4-entertainment-notebook-PC-series/5048648/model/5072629/document/c03048374

  Not install the Intel graphics driver separateely!

  This interrupts the switchable graphics feature.

  Install only the HP ADM ATI graphics softpaq. It will install the two drivers automatically and allow you to use the graphics switchable featrure og your laptop.

• HP Pavilion DV4-1125nr cannot start after the update/update BIOS version F.12 to d.55

  System: HP Pavilion DV4-1125nr PC Notebook

  Product #: FR922UAR #AB

  The system board ID: 30F7

  Version of the BIOS (before the update): F.12

  OS: Windows 7
  

  I tried to update the BIOS to d.55 which was provided by HP. After the successful installation the closure of new windows BIOS correctly. I restart the PC, HP Logo appears and then nothing happens. The operating system do not load or start at all.

  I also tried to boot using the Windows 98 Second edition CD (to charge BACK), but it did not work.

  Please help me...

  Fortunately I found a Solution to this problem.

  Here are the summaries (and modified according to my needs) the steps that I've taken of the following thread:

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-hardware/dv4-1140GO-won-t-boot-after-flashing-latest-BIOS/m-p/19698#M2730

  1. go to the hp site and download the correct version of your BIOS. In my case it had to F.12. Why not the latest version? Because there is no guarantee that the last one will work for you, know after measures.

  2. go where you downloaded the file and using 7 - Zip (or tool of your choice of course) unzip the contents to a folder of your choice. We'll get to that later, so keep this file open.

  3. use 128 MB or no matter what key-USB USB key (the smallest, you might find, because they said the smaller the better ) and reformatted to FAT or FAT32 click with the right button on the drive by clicking on "format".

  4. now that my USB is ready, go back to the folder where you extracted the file to update the BIOS (always open to the right of the folder?)

  "5. If you have the graphics card Intel integrated like me, copy the ' 30F7F12U. FD"of the key USB and RENAME the file '30F7F12U. FD' at '30F7. BIN ". Remember that this name calling to order "DV4-1125nr. If you have a different motherboard, the system or the BIOS, the name must be determined according to the.

  The next steps are exact 0.0 as follows (the link of a full detailed discussion is provided below), I simply numbered:

  6 unplug the adapter from the laptop.

  7 remove the battery from the laptop.

  8 insert the USB key into one of the USB ports on the laptop.
  Does not seem to matter which.

  9. press the 'Windows' key and the 'B' key

  10. connected to the power adapter.

  11 press the 'Power' button on the laptop.

  12. when the LED is entered, letting go of the power button / stop and the two keys down earlier.

  13. After about 10 seconds the notebook started to read the USB key. While searching for the file, the laptop beeps every seconds.
  The number of beeps varied, depending on what size of the key USB has been and
  the number of files on the USB key, a single beep for many.
  If the file was not found, the laptop will restart and try again.

  14. If the file is found then it took about 12 seconds for the laptop to load. No beeps sound not heard during the loading time.

  15. when it is responsible for the laptop has started flashing, indicated by beeps every 2 seconds. It took about 32 seconds.

  16. about 5 seconds after the ringtone had stopped off the laptop computer.

  First I update my pc with the last BIOS (F.66), but did not work for me (operating system not loaded after HP Logo ). So I decided to go back to the old F.12 (the version that has been shipped when the laptop was purchased) according to the procedure described above. But the problem is where to find version F.12 as HP currently provides links only for the version of the BIOS F.66 to d.55 (in the drivers from the hp support site section)

  Fortunately, I found a direct link to this version F.12 in the next thread.

  F.12 version:

  This was F.12 and worked for me. Thank God Almighty I return my PC.

• Windows 7 upgrade, keyboard filter

  I have a dv5-1150us, trying to upgrade Windows Vista 64 for Windows 7 64. I installed the following driver for the quick launch buttons:

  FTP://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp44001-44500/sp44135.exe

  Exit the: 2009-07-15
  Version: 6.50.3.1

  I run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, it indicates that the system is clean and can be upgraded. I then run the actual setup, and it does not level because of "keyboard" incompatible driver. From what I've read 6.50.3.1 is the latest driver and it should work.

  Any ideas? Should I uninstall the quick launch buttons first, do the upgrade and then reinstall under Windows 7?

  Thanks for any help.

  Roland

  Yes, uninstall QL, install Win 7 and then install the latest QL from your page drivers HERE

• Can I upgrade the graphics of my HP Pavilion dv4-2045dx?

  Operating system: Windows 7 32 bit

  The product name and number of HP Pavilion dv2-2045dx

  First of all, a note on my computer: I recentley reformatted it.

  My problem:

  My laptop Pavilion dv4 2045dx cannot play Diablo 3. I've waited nine years for this game to come out. Buying a new computer to play D3 is not economically feasible.

  So my question is, should I upgrade graphics card in my computer? If so, can I buy the graphics card and pay a professional to install it? I never tried to upgrade a laptop before.

  Here are some notes more:

  DIABLO 3 MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

  NVIDIA® GeForce® 7800 GT or ATI Radeon™ X 1950 Pro or better

  Intel® Pentium D 2.8 GHz or AMD Athlon™ 64 X 2 4400 +

  SPECIFICATIONS OF MY LAPTOP

  ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series

  AMD Turion II dual-core Mobile M500 2.2 GHz

  
  

  All the advice, guys? I would gladly get a high-end Radeon card if recommend you any to me or something.

  You are the very welcome.

  Sorry I couldn't bring you good news.

  There are two types of notifications of compatibility in the compatibility check update Win7 - "HardBlock" and "SoftBlock".

  "HardBlock" - SW MUST be uninstalled before upgrade can continue (or actions that must be taken-as a reboot in some cases). The only option is to cancel the upgrade and take the necessary measures

  "SoftBlock" - SW which might have problems after upgrading and which could be recommended to uninstall. You can continue the upgrade process, even if you have these notifications without no action (the report will be placed on the desktop for once you have upgraded to Win7 you can always use it as a reference for other actions that you might want to take if necessary)

  The "Keyboard Filter" notification is a "SoftBlock" - you can continue the update even if you get this message. In the specific case of the "keyboard" filter (i.e. the pilot button quick launch) - he will be in fact automatically deleted during the upgrade process.

  Once your Win7 upgrade has completed, you can reinstall the quick launch buttons driver.
