Pavilion dv6-6c40se and support the blu - ray?

Hi all

can I use discs blu - ray on my [dv6-6c40se], as the manual says I can, but the image of the laptop on this manual (and I don't know it's wright for my laptop manual) have a fingerprint on it, but not mine

Maintenance & Service guide shows three possible configurations for series books model dv6.

(1) Blu - ray Disc ROM FX SuperMulti DVD±R/RW Double -.
Control layer

(2) R/RW SuperMulti FX Blu - ray player

(3) SuperMulti DVD±R/RW with Support Double layer

If your player will not play BluRay discs, then your a #3 is installed.  You should try to play a Blu - ray disc in the drive. This way you will know for some.

  • Can Pavilion dv6 (2010, Windows 7) play Blu - Ray discs? If so, how to operate?

    Hello!

    I have a computer laptop dv6 Pavilion 2010 (Windows 7), and I can't play Blu - Ray discs.

    In my control panel (Control Panel-> hardware) and sound-> Auto Play, it lists "Blu - Ray Disc movie" as one of the media types, I can choose a value for default, but the only options it gives me are: "Open folder to view files using Windows Explorer", "Take no action" and "Ask Me every time."  So, I can not select a program to use to read discs Blu - Ray here.

    I tried to put in a Blu - Ray disc and see if it will open with Windows Media Player, iTunes, and HP MediaSmart, but none of these programs recognize there is a disc in the drive.

    When I insert the disc, the computer seems to recognize that I put something in, but when I check "Devices with removable storage" in the folder "My Computer", it is said that there is no disc in the drive.

    Then... I have two questions.
    (1) can my computer even Blu - Ray discs play?

    (2) if it is able to do, why my computer doesn't recognize Blu - Ray discs I put in?

    I don't really know what I would do to this subject, so if someone saw that they are willing to give, I would really appreciate it!

    Thank you!!

  • Pavilion dv6 - 3163cl does not play blu ray movies

    The game screen comes up and it goes into the updates and I have select or not it returns to this message.  I tried to use the touch pad to select the game, rather than the mouse, but that does not make a difference.  I couldn't play this blu - ray disc library at home, without the internet.  at the library, with the internet, I still can't play.

    also received a message that the sp50935.exe should be uninstalled.  given that I just downloaded worries me to uninstall.

    see the post about? power play DVD and not uninstall HP DVD media, but if it works I am unsure of how to bring that?

    Hello

    First of all, if you still wish to reinstall HP MediaSmart DVD, the latest installer can be downloaded from the following link.

    HP MediaSmart DVD.

    However, the issue of the update with MediaSmart DVD is well known, so I would really say that replacement by the version of HP from Cyberlinks PowerDVD 10 that seems to be a much better solution. You can install this software as follows.

    First, download the latest installer for this on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp56501-57000/sp56904.exe

    Once the download is complete, open windows control panel, open programs and features, make a right click the entry for HP MediaSmart DVD and select uninstall - when this process is complete, restart the laptop.

    When windows has completely recharged, open your download folder and double-click the installer for PowerDVD 10 start the installation.  Once this done, see if your Blu - ray disc now plays OK.

  • Windows Media Center will not be updated to allow the Blu Ray

    Hello

    I have an Acer laptop that supports Blu Ray disc, but when I go to play with Windows Media Center there is a pop up that says that "an essential element must be updated", but whenever I click "update", it tells me that my internet connection is not working it may not update. I checked and there is nothing wrong with my internet connection and library still refuses to update. Is there a way to force it to update? Or another program that will support the Blu Ray?
    Thank you
    Kerryn
    There is no native support in Windows for the Blu - Ray, including Media Center. You
    need a third-party Blu Ray player. What Blue Ray software supplied with your
    computer? It works as a standalone program?

    After my sister died, I found his nearly new laptop (HP Pavilion DV7? nr), but have not been able to use it, because of password and a biometric scanner. It sounds like a nice laptop, but worthless if I can't use it. Any Suggestions for one-it-myselfer (cheap)?
    A recovery disk can be inserted into the Blu - Ray player and re - install the original settings?
    There were not any software who carried on this laptop, so I don't know if she had, originally, and if it would work as does my drive recovery for my old HP Pavilion laptop using Vista.

    Restore the PC to its original state with the HP Recovery Manager if Windows Vista is not accessible

    If the computer does not start in Windows, it may still be possible to use the HP recovery disk to restore the computer to its original state. The Recovery Manager can be started during the boot process by following the steps below.
    1. Press on the button / stop to start the computer and press f11 when the standard BIOS guests appear on the black screen.
      NOTE: by pressing the f11 key during startup on a computer with an image factory HP will start the system recovery process, even if the message is not displayed.

      • If the HP Recovery Manager can access the recovery on the hard drive partition, you receive a to back up user files before you start the recovery prompt. Follow the instructions.
      • If the HP Recovery Manager cannot access the hard disk to resolve system errors, you need to use the recovery disk custom that you created to recover the hard disk to its original state.
      • If you have not created the custom recovery disk, or disks are damaged, you can order a replacement of HP recovery CD.

    2. When the Recovery Manager starts, follow the instructions of recovery step by step , shown above.
    Solve a common problem of recovery.
    If the original operating system is changed to a non - Vista OS, the Recovery Manager cannot be launched either office or by pressing f11 at startup. You can use the recovery disk to restore the computer to the original state of Vista. If you are using a non - Vista OS, you can use a third-party partition management program to recover hard disk space.

    Or try to order a new recovery discs...

    Maybe this article:
    http://www.ZDNet.com/blog/Bott/lost-your-Windows-discs-how-to-get-replacement-media-legally/4320

    HP has a simple recovery process, and its policy to provide filtering alternatives is well integrated in its support pages.

    I went through the process of replacing for a two-year-old HP Pavilion Elite m9600t. This system was built in the summer 2009, before Windows 7 shipped. As a result, my only option was to support Windows Vista 64-bit. For first class mail, HP shipping or taxes added up to $15.80. (I might have updated 2-day or night FedEx delivery for another $6 or $12, respectively.)

    From this page: HP and Compaq Desktop PC: looking for recovery discs?

    There step by step instructions to create a recovery disc for Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP. Also, it offers the possibility to order replacement disks, but warns that these discs may only be available for a limited time:

    If you are unable to create a set of recovery discs, you may be able to order a set of replacement of HP HP discs. maintains an inventory of recovery disks of replacement several years after the product was released. However, due to licensing restrictions, HP is able to provide these recovery disc for a limited time. If the computer is several years after its warranty period, HP isn't maybe able to provide replacement for your computer disks.

    I tried with a model of 2008 HP (long out of warranty) and was able to locate filtering alternatives.

    The process of media control was a little confused. The key is to start with the appropriate model number, then click on software and driver downloads, as shown here:

    On the next page, you are prompted to select an operating system. The support link to recovery in the results list is available only if you select the version of Windows that your computer initially comes with. If you do not see a section "Recovery media", HP suggest "to ensure that you are on the right model number page and select another operating system." It worked for me.

    Interestingly, the last section on the page is titled "finding of the recovery disks from other Web sites. It contains a warning at the top in bold: try all other options in the paper support before attempting to order recovery disks at outside HP.

    If HP is further providing the recovery disc for your computer model and is no longer possible to create a recovery disk, you may be able to find a solution outside of HP.

    Popular online auction sites and providers of computer parts may have a part in stock original recovery disk. However, be cautious and aware of the risks when buying from a source outside of HP recovery disks. Beware of sites that offer recovery solutions when they are not affiliated with HP.

    Even if HP could not have a recovery disc available for purchase of value, search the part HP command Web site to find recovery kit part number that corresponds to your computer. Once you find the part number of the recovery disc, use the number in your search for best results.

    It's actually good advice. If you can find a part number, you may be able to find records of replacement from a legitimate outside vendor that specializes in parts for the models of the manufacturer of your PC.

  • Not supported format - Blu - Ray will not play on HP Pavilion

    I have a HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC WA794UA #ABA CNF0162R76.

    Whenever I try to play a Blu - Ray disc in my Blu - Ray player, I get an "Unsupported Format" Message in HP MediaSmart DVD Player.

    What I am doing wrong?

    Hello

    If you use HP MediaSmart DVD (which can be glitch) to read the Blu - ray disc, try the following.

    HP now provides a version of PowerDVD 10 Cyberlinks which seems to be a better solution.  Download the installer for it on the link below and save it to your desktop.

    FTP://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp53001-53500/sp53029.exe

    When the download is complete, open windows panneau Panel configuration, open programs and features, right click the entry for HP MediaSmart DVD and select uninstall - once this process is complete, restart the laptop.

    When windows has reloaded, double-click the installer for PowerDVD 10 start the installation.  Once this done, see if your Blu - ray disc now plays OK.

    You can either clone (using the Samsung migration tool or tools 3rd part), factory reset (with the support of HP recovery) or pure install (if you have the disc to install Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit, and you can clearly and legibly read all 25 characters of the activation key of the product to the rear of your laptop).

  • HP Pavilion dv6t-1100: no longer plays blu - ray

    From this computer with Windows Vista, and I have upgraded to Windows 7. Recently, I did a clean install of Windows 7 using a disc and now problems play a blu - ray disc. When I insert the disc, Windows Media Center opens and asks me if I want to check the updates. Regardless of whether I choose Yes, he keeps asking if I want to update. I installed the latest version of the MediaSmart DVD software and a stand-alone version of the software MVP. I don't seem to have the Cyberlink software more, and I don't know why. Could be the problem? I vaguely remember having to download something to fix this problem when I updated before, but I don't remember where or what.

    Hello:

    See if this software works for you... readers blue ray require software that can also play the blue ray discs.

    This package provides the PowerDVD from CyberLink software for laptops models and operating systems. The PowerDVD from CyberLink software allows users to view Blu - ray (BD) discs and DVD and supports a wide variety of video and audio formats.

  • Windows Media Player cannot play the blu - ray files

    I have a Blu - ray player in my laptop, so why can't windows media player play? and what can I do so that it will be?

    1. My first answer is the Google search for Blu - Ray Codecs
    2. My second answer is Google looking for a program to play the Blu - Ray (some are free, some are paid

    I do not think that caught WMP supported by Blu - Ray, but Apple's iTunes, and its free to download for PC and Mac, but on PC it is a Devourer of real resources (RAM and processor). Now I don't know if this program works for Blu - Ray, but Media Player Classic home cinema SurgeForge (and not by Microsoft) plays most formats as long as the K-lite codec pack is installed. Both k - lite and media player classic home cinema (and not by Microsoft) are free to download and and findable by searching on Google.

    Good luck in getting your Blu-Rays to play, at the moment I am looking at myself if my PC will play Blu-Rays at all.

  • Impossible to get to define the area of Netflix to improve access of the blu - ray

    I am running Firefox 12. I agree with Netflix and can get into netflix.com and my account, and I use Firefox to add the DVD to my queue and change the settings in Netflix. But now I want to update to DVD to the blu - ray format, but cannot.

    In settings of Netflix, there is a link to do it online. When I use my computer to work with Internet Explorer, I know that I can use this link because I tried it, and it takes me to a screen to choose to add blu - ray access. Today, I can not get to this screen on my computer at home with Firefox.

    I use the free version of avast antivirus software, which is pretty basic and has never prevented me from doing something like that.
