Pavilion dv4-2170-us has problem with connection light display

The cover on my laptop seems to have a bad connection, because I have to play with the angle to get the screen to

show anything.  Sound very, very delicate.

Is this something that can be fixed by a tech or should I get a new laptop?  I'm asking because there is another nother

problem with function of my computer.

HI @compugirl ,

I understand this thing you display may have a bad connection that you have to play with, then fish on the screen to show the line.

Want to know if this could be fixed by a tech.  The short answer is Yes.  Here is a link to 2009decembre 17 December 17, 2009 HP Pavilion dv4 Entertainment PC Maintenance and Service of Guide. Please note Chapter 3 page 3 for a list of the replacement screens supported by number of the part.

It may just be a connections loose as you said, either a bad connection cable...  The cable may have become defective through the opening and closing of notebook, during normal use.  Please note Chapter 4 page 27 for the removal of the screen procedure.  Before considering the replacement of the screen, I would try a new cable first to exclude it.  You should be able to buy the cable to any computer supply store.

I hope this has helped.

  • My Windows XP has problems with shlwapi.dll

    My Windows XP has problems with shlwapi.dll and there are plenty of sites to download, but they all want money, why don't misrosoft not has an answer for this problem. When I try to update to internet explorer 6 to explore 8 then the error always pops up saying: you have a problem with shlawpi.dll and he can not continue... Very very frustrating.

    In general, it is not a good idea to download dll files.   See, for example, http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findtheproblem/qt/dll-download.htm

    If you explain more in detail what your problem is, including providing the full text of the error without paraphrase, it is likely that someone in the appropriate Microsoft Answers forum will be able to help.

    Because it seems that your problem is related to Internet Explorer, you are more likely to receive help if you post in the forum Internet Explorer, where there are already many threads dealing with issues of shlwapi.dll on IE: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/Search/Search?SearchTerm=shlwapi&CurrentScope.ForumName=ie&CurrentScope.Filter=&askingquestion=false

    If you look through some of these threads, you can find the answer to your question without further delay.  If not (or if you just want to watch), do not forget to include not only the text of the error message, but also the version of Windows XP, you have (Home, Pro, Media Center) and its service pack (start > run > winver > OK).

    And, based on this thread - with what seems to be your exact problem - also include responses to the following questions (there no answer, certainly because the OP has NOT provided to the request for information):

    1. what application or anti-virus security suite is installed and is your current subscription?  What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications?  What third-party firewall (if applicable)?

    2. do you have a free trial Norton, or a test of free McAfee [a] come preinstalled on the computer when you bought it? (No matter if you have never used or activated).

    3 is installed WinXP SP3?

    Thanks for any help on this.

  • Pavilion Notebook PC 15-079er: problems with sleep and shutdown 15-n079er HP Pavilion Notebook PC.

    Hello world

    I have a huge problem with my Pavilion. I used Windows 8.1 earlier, and I decided to upgrade to Windows 10. I did not like something (can't remember what) and decided to return to Windows 8.1. Almost a year passed, I am again on Windows 10. But if I SLEEP my computer:

    • Screen goes black, everything seems normal.
    • No matter how long wait, fan keeps spinning and power LED, LED Wi - Fi on.
    • Keyboard input does not help. Does not meet what it is.
    • The only thing left to do - stop hard.

    And if I shut down the operating system:

    • Windows normally stops, close all applications, screen goes black.
    • Fan on, led on.

    I did not notice these problems with restarting and the hibernation.

    Two things I've done in this gap of the year:

    • Replacement screen. An old broke. Thanks to my cat...
    • Formatted the drive. I don't think it would do anything diffirent.

    So, any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    On some machines, the pilot for 11 series IMEI has been known to cause that kind of question of the judgment, so it may be worth trying an earlier version.

    You can use the following method to install an earlier version of the driver IMEI.

    Download driver IMEI on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp66001-66500/sp66228.exe

    Disable your wireless card (should be f12 ).

    Open your download folder and run the installer - it warns you that it is an earlier version, but simply continue.

    When finished, restart the laptop.

    If the computer shuts down correctly, turn on your wireless adapter and use the utility on the following link to prevent Windows 10 to update automatically the driver IMEI again.

Since that day I have problems connecting with my Toshiba Satellite L850-18 t - I have never had similar problems before.

    I put the security of the router for wpa - psk with aes encriptación mode option. The laptop connected and worked fine, but the next day, he has not suddenly connect more. So I went to check the option, everything was allright. Troubleshooting gave me the following error: "problem with wireless adapter or access point. I tried to reboot wlan driver, but nothing happened. The only thing that seems to help is to change the security WPA2-PSK mode (or vice versa), restart my laptop and it connects then.

    Anyone have some clue what happens? It must be something with my laptop settings, because all other devices (another computer toshiba laptop but older, a PC and android devices) work perfectly.

    What I see is that we have same wireless Chipset, Tenda use Ralink or Broadcom chipsets, which are compatible with our wifi cards, then I would tell you my opinion do 1st updated drivers on your laptop, I use the latest x 64 win10, atheros version drivers 10.0.0.326, then go and upgrade your routers firmware! I don't know it will solve your problem, by the way check firmware of the laptop is the last 6,80 I think!

  • Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t: problem with the new HP DH16D5S DVD ROM drive

    My office is a HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t.  I recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.  I have two HP optical dirives, one is a writer, and the other is just a DVD ROM  Both have always worked perfectly with Windows 7.  After you have installed Windows 10 continuous burner work very well works correctly with autoplay.  However, the DVD - ROM, HP DH16D5S, immediately began using autoplay.  Actually the drive was not yet recognized as a drive when you view the drives in the file Explorer.  Finally, it would seem, sometimes taking also longer than 5 minutes or more before doing so and then would work very well.  I tried different types of media, including music CD, DVD video and DVD software with the same results.  I assumed that it was a problem with the drive, maybe a bad capacitor, etc., which was originally not start correctly.  So I ordered a new DH160D5S, but which seems to have been a waste of time and money, because it does exactly the same thing as the original.  I even changed the cables autour between it and the burner, but it made no difference.  The burner still works fine but not DVD ROM.  I tried to find a more recent driver for it, but had no chance.  I found on a Dell website for this drive which was an update of the firmware for Windows Vista and Windows 7, but not for Windows 10.  I advanced and downloaded, but when I tried to run, I got the message: "your system does not meet the minimum requirements for this update.  Update has been canceled. »

    I want to try a different brand of DVD ROM, but would have to buy one without knowing if it would help.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Since I posted this message I discovered that there is a driver problem with this DVD ROM.  There's no driver available yet to make the drive compatible with Windows 10.  Since then, I returned the drive and replaced by another brand that is compatible with Windows 10.

  • Strange problem with connectivity

    I had this problem with one of my computers I'm trying to connect to my router ea6500. I have several wired devices and wireless but who are working very well, the router gives me the questions recently and I had to get back to the form of the plant. Once I had setup the configuration again, one of my computers which had run fine before has an interesting question.

    The computer appears in my router with it's normal internal IP address. And my computer is saying that it is correctly connected to the internet. The question? It is not. All my other computers and devices are excellent connections without interruption of service whatsoever. No idea what could cause this kind of problem?

    After crossing, my pilots had messed up a stored parameter which was preserved through updates to pilot. I had to uninstall and reinstall the driver for my machine to fix manually Ethernet controller.

  • Problem with connecting to Windows normally

    OK, so I'm having a problem with a record in my laptop normally and the only way I can get to it is by going to safe mode.

    Basically what happens is that whenever I try to connect my computer normally (not in safe mode) I'll type in my password press enter it will come with the welcome sign and this small circle that tells it to load but it never is as if this drive does not work because the lamp flashes not or anything like that. However, it is very well whenever I login in safe mode and that the laptop came with windows vista on it that I don't have a copy of windows vista to try and slove the problem. This problem acerd after I restarted my laptop because it was slow and contributing generally to make it work properly again, but now this has happened and I don't know what to do.

  • Problem with connecting to Essbase

    Hello

    We have recently updated to 11.1.2.4

    Since that time we see some questions intermittently while trying to connect.

    We use a user admin native directory connect you to MAXL to run scripts. This keeps failing in between and then if we're going to restart the job, it runs without any problems.

    We have checked through the SharedServices_Security_Client.log and found that, around the same time of the failure, there are a few mistakes here.

    Construction of the cache is for providers, has now begun to unify the cache. It is a status messages. No action required.

    Has failed to unify the Group cache. NULL. Refer to the log file security of the Shared Services for more details.


    Does anyone has any ideas on this.

    Do you think that the problem is related to the connection attempt to time to "unify the cache?

    I think that we have a framework to refresh Group cache every 60 minutes. is it a good idea to change that at one time in a day interval

    Thank you.
