Pavilion dv6: 10 for Windows upgrade fails Pavilion dv6 after update and entry of password
After updating my Pavilion dv6 Windows 7 64 - bit of Windows 10 64 - bits, the connection to the computer to update resulted in a machine stuck with white (gray) screen. The upgrade seems complete without any problems. It is only after a reboot with the machine being upgraded and after entering the password that the lock status was encountered.
You can see if any of the suggestions in the linked thread works - but DV6 succeed well in Win10, and if none of these work, you need to consider restoring to Win7: HP Notebook PC - computer starts but the screen remains empty (10, 8 Windows) | HP® customer support
I have a DV6 and after many hardships, restored to Win7 because I felt that an older OS where everything worked was much higher than a more recent OS where many things were "broken."
And there is no driver HP Win10 for the DV6.

Windows Vista fails to boot after updates combined with Mcafee instalation.
The laptop is a 2007 medion mim2330 running 32 bit vista Basic. He was protected by Bullguard, but it had expired and has been exceeded. A message appeared on the screen WARNING french that he had been infected by a virus - it does not look official and I am not sure that he clicked on the option to download solution - however the phone still worked. I had a Mcafee 3 user license and wanted to install it so I uninstalled bullguard and installed Mcafee process windows crashed and failed to WINDOWS START SCREEN appeared and I was unable to boot windown in any mode. I gave the phone to a knowledgeable friend who said it was a virus, but did not know that one - he said, it has been deleted, all hardware tests had been run and it was perfect. It has resized the partition of disk doing a great score including a remains a very small. He reloaded windows with avast antivirus and gave the laptop back to work. I wanted to use the Mcafee I had paid for, so I uninstalled avast and installed Mcafee. Everything went well and the laptop worked - however the mcafee warning sign came up saying scan in real time has been disabled - he turned back, but a few minutes it turned off again. I have contacted Mcafee used virtual tech then chatted in their eng who suspected a virus, a virus scanner from mcafee, rather than the laptop - it was very good. While the computer restarts windows laptop crashed and the WINDOWS FAILED to START SCREEN has appeared. I gave it back to my friend who reloaded windows and avast and widely used for a week. When we got it back avast had been removed and there was Windows Defender - didn't light alarm does not. We loaded on Mcafee and had plenty of updates (and hours) then tried windows live messenger telling to SP1 and SP2 are necessary. They were charged after an eternity using automatic updates of windows. After everything has been loaded on a final restart gave place WINDOWS failed to START screen and does not start in any mode. I thought it might be linked to the abduction of an antivirus and the installation of another, so I put in the original Windows restore disc in and formatted the large partition, then reloaded windows and all its drivers then went on updates auto and auto updates for 24 hours until what he said to date. Installed mcafee - no problem, then tried windows live essentials that required sp1 and SP2 - used auto updates to download SP1. When this is completed there were two messages from Mcafee saying restart the pc and the other problem Center and soln windows saying an upate problem was found to go online to find the solution, I checked windows update history and SP1 and all other updates were installed successfully, so I rebooted the laptop - at which point it crashed and WINDOWS has no PU START APPEARED to-it wont start in any mode. Suggestions as to the cause and or how to make the process of restoration in less time - much appreciated. We have a same laptop bought at the same time, running the same original software and Mcafee - never a single problem. Thank you very much
Usually, this means that Windows could not load the packages of metadata for some devices on your computer. If you do not already have it, you can run chkdsk/r (there is a space between thek and /) to verify the integrity of your hard drive. Follow the steps below:
1. reboot your computer
2. immediately press theF8 key until you reach the Advanced Boot Options menu
3. Select Safe Mode with command prompt.
4. at the command prompt, typechkdsk/r

About 6 years ago I bought a new edition special desktop HP Pavilion at Future Shop. Now I don't get updates, or the software corrects more. Windows 10 is free for new versions... Is there a discounted '10' for Vista and earlier versions of windows? If I have to pay full price, this will be the 5th time that I pay for a new version of windows. Please let know us if there is a download available.

Hello
Depends on hardware configuration required on later operating systems, and also find out if the manufacturer of the laptop computer is supported and provides drivers for operating systems later as to whether it is possible or feasible to upgrade or not.
There is no free upgrade or discounted Vista to 7, 8.1, or 10.

HP Pavilion x 2 11-h003sa: problems of feature app suite 8.1 for Windows upgrade
I recently bought a HP Pavilion x 2 11-h003sa 2 in 1 laptop / tablet. This happened with Windows 8, and I decided to accept the free update for Windows 8.1. Since then, several applications, including purchased apps, don't work properly when they worked well on Windows 8. Please note I applied all the updates of Windows available, app updates, and I made sure that they are compatible with our firewall. When possible, I uninstalled then reinstalled the apps. The problem is the following:
The following applications are affected: Angry Birds, Star Wars, Star Wars assault team and (the pre installed) Instruments of Fingertaps. When these applications are enabled, the screen is blank. The app reappears only when the charms bar is swept to the right of the screen. If I then try to touch the screen to use the app, the screen will become immediately empty. I have to turn on the charm bar to close application completely to return to the menu start applications are, therefore, unnecessary. The pre-installed app of monopoly is even worse, as activate that translates a blank screen and only closing the app will go back to the start menu. I want to stress that all these applications worked fine before the upgrade to Windows 8.1. The retailer (PC World) never met such an error before and suggested that I try to solve online.
I also noticed that sometimes after use, the touch screen and the Windows Start button simply stop working, and I have to close the Tablet and restart in order to get this resolved. I've not owned this computer long enough to comment if it had been a problem before the upgrade to tp Windows 8.
I look forward to the ideas or if someone has experienced something similar. I'm regretting upgrading to Windows 8.1, like the ease of use of a piece of expensive hardware and otherwise excellent has been compromised by this upgrade.

Hi Toastcartoons1. Looks like it may be driver related. The mode indicated update that you must install the latest drivers before the update when possible. Update your PC HP Windows 8 Windows 8.1
Perhaps you can identify opportunities, update drivers that may have an impact on the applications that you have problems with. The most likely candidate is graphic. Before the graphic driver, I recommend trying the update of the first Chipset:
Driver and Intel Chipset Installation utility
High definition (HD) of Intel Graphics DriverAfter installing both and restarting, try to re-create the issue. If you can, then reininstall the problematic applications and try again.
If you want to revert to Windows 8, this is the procedure: performing a recovery of HP (Windows 8) system
I hope this helps. Let me know the results.
