Pavilion dv6 Notebook: card WiFi and RAM update

My WiFi is not able to go as fast as the speed that I pay the cable company.  I tell myself that if I pay for it I would be able to go that fast.  How can I tell what will work in my notebook?  Same question as the RAM. Currently I have 4 GB and would like to go as far as I can.

Please tell me what I need to know, in layman's terms, to buy what I need.

Thank you!

  • Pavilion DV6 Notebook: Intermitttent Wifi on Windows 10

    I also lost my WiFi connection since the last update of Windows 10 (19 December). I can reconnect using the Troubleshoot utility but the connection drops after about 10 minutes.

    I tried a system restore, but eventually the system immediately reinstalled the offending update.

    I checked for updates of driver in Device Manager, but there are apparently none are available.

    I'm puzzled.

    Hello world

    I have a HP Pavilion DV6-2115sa

    Product number: WB330EA #ABU

    It is out of warranty and one day when he began cutting during the boot. I brought it to a local store and they gave me a ridiculous price for a replacement motherboard.

    I came across one with HP Pavilion DV6-2113sa auction to sell for a small price with a motherboard completely functional.

    I wanted to ask if it is possible to move the motherboard for my laptop and possibly putting my processor in the new motherboard?

    I would very much apreciate any responses as the id would like to know if there is any time to do the 2113sa?

    [removed s/n of privacy]

    Hello:

    I would speculate that it is certainly possible.

    Here are links to the two models.

  • HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC: wifi cuts out occasionally and will reconnect only as administrator

    My wifi is de-energized occationally and almost a year. the only way to re-establish the connection must go through as an administrator. but I sometimes do a reboot just to get the next Administrator option. HP has updated my drivers a month ago but I always what happens.

    from solutions offered and found that the first link puts me a windows solution 10 but the problem was before I was windows 10, I ran the fix link and with theinfo I found something on Google that was to check any material connected with a USB key. I found that the USB hub I was using wasn't material and since the line I had no disconnections to date. I hope that had solved the problem, but only time will tell

  • RALink RT5390r 801,1 1 b/g/n 1 x 1 wifi adapter in a Pavilion dv6 notebook works with WiFi on 5 GHz?

    The card Ralink RT5390r 801,1 1 b/g/n 1 x 1 wifi in a Pavilion dv6 notebook wireless adapter works with WiFi on 5 GHz? I need to change the network card?

    Hello:

    Any card with a bgn suffix is a single 2.4 GHz single band card.

    A card with agn or abgn is a dual band.

    I doubt you will find a dual band compatible to your laptop wireless card.

    The BIOS has a whitelist which hangs in the cards wireless not supported to be installed.

    The service manual may indicate a card dual band for your model, but the part number will be probably wrong.

  • HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook problems and I know that this is not a virus

    Hello everyone I need help! :[

    Right now I feel "AAAAAAAARGHHH!", because my laptop was bad, since we bought it on Amazon. I got it for everything... 1-2 months (we got it in June) and I had problems really bad-_-"'

    The following events did my hair set on fire:

    Random memory dumps and no explanation for it (it says something like NO INFO DATA or something like that)

    My laptop is so freakin ' hot my legs are close to combustion

    It freezes at startup times and makes me do a difficult start

    It freezes when everything is STABLE!  I move my mouse sometimes and poof! FREEZE ALERT

    It is weird stuff at the beginning up resembling CHKDSK and boot scan, but I'm not so sure...

    So can someone help? Its under the warrantyso I could do maybe deported but I don't really know what is wrong first

    Here is some info:

    your first mistake is to use the laptop on your lap. In the manual it says do not for this. never. Looks like your laptop is random questions causing overheating (probably by something blocking the ventilation openings) with the system board. If it is under warranty. maintenance operation.

  • HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC: restore the system and drivers

    Hello. A few days ago I faced a bad experience with my laptop HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC. System crashed. At any time, I tried to turn it on, an error message appears and the system was blocked. The message was: FILE: \BOOT\BCD status 0xc000000f, asking for the disc of Windows 7 system running. But the system disk did not run at all. I checked the situation and found the hard drive with 6 partitions instead of 2. I found a named partition BOOT (X which was a replica of C:.)  When I tried to restore the system with the recovery disc, something has obtained control of the recovery disc, so that C: might not be formatted; nor was X:. Also, I tried to cancel the file in X: but disc was protected and does not allow changes. If only I could get my uninstalled hard drive and all partitions have been cleaned. I got my hard drive cleaned perfectly, but my recovery disk can be installed correctly. So, the system has not yet restored. My question is: what should I do to get my laptop with the system restore? any ideas?

    When you request support, please provide the number full name or product model of the HP computer in question. HP/Compaq made thousands of computer models. Without this information, it can be difficult, even impossible to help you solve your problem.

"Windows 7 system disc", the computer asking wass is a Windows 7 repair disc or a Windows 7 installation disc.

    Start by using your HP recovery disk set (should be DVD 3 or more). Insert the #1 disc and restart your computer to start the process. Insert the remaining disks as requested, until the recovery is complete.

     

    If this does not work, and you can read the product key 25 character Microsoft Windows 7 on th COST Microsoft attached to your computer, see "How to install Windows 7 without the disc" for download Windows 7 SP1, create the Windows installation DVD and install Windows 7.  If you prefer to install Windows 7 from a USB Flash drive, please download the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool to create a Windows 7 SP1 USB Flash Drive.

  • HP Pavilion dv6 notebook intermittent failure of keyboard

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 notebook, 1 year old.  Windows 7 Home Premium SP1, 8 GB of Ram.  I have an external wired keyboard (Logitech K120) and a separate wireless mouse.  Frequently in the past few weeks, I noticed that the keyboard will fail once the laptop worked for a while, usually when the laptop is in "sleep".  I hear by fails, * TWO * external and the internal keyboard.  Nor will respond to any strikes at all.  Mouse control is fine, even when the keyboard has failed.

    If I rebooted the system, it works well again.

    I think that when I saw this before, I tried to disconnect the external keyboard, but that doesn't matter, because the integrated keyboard does not work or the other.

    I guess this could result from certain automatic Windows driver installation or upgrade?  Does anyone have advice for the diagnosis or verification of current drivers?

    I have just closed the lid of the laptop, to force the machine mode 'sleep'.  When I opened the lid, the system has taken over, I can log in via the scanner digital, the mouse works but the keyboard has disappeared.  I had to reboot the system, update this message.

    fmaurais,



    Try the following steps:



    Control Panel-> hardware and sound-> Power Options-> change Plan (of the current plan selected) settings-> change the advanced power settings-> parameter of selective suspension of USB-> Disable (both)

    Control Panel-> hardware and sound-> Power Options-> change Plan (of the current plan selected) settings-> change the advanced power settings-> PCI-Express-> Link State Power Management-> Disable (both)



    I read on a Microsoft page that is who can solve some problems "out of sleep."



    computerwhiz90,



    I'll see if I can get a model of your laptop to see if I can reproduce the problem.

  • Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC: I can pass on my HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC (memory, processor, graphics)

    My dv6 became very slow. I am running Windows 10 and now it takes 15-20 minutes to wake him up from his sleep and connect. Ive done a lot of cleanup and optimization, but nothing got better on that. It get very hot very quickly and the fan always seems to be at the top. I'm looking to try to upgrade the memory and perhaps the (quad-core) processor at least if possible, to see if the performance is going to do better. I can hardly do anything on this issue now because it takes too long! I have a 1 TB of HDD installed there a few years and who works well, but everyday navigation, products microsoft office and editing photo/video light from time to time are almost impossible! What memory and processors are compatible with my device that I could look in the upgrade? Any help is greatly appreciated! I'm new to upgrades of memory and others so I had a bit of a problem of the research/understand exactly what I would like to search! I will post the form below!

    You have a model dv6-3155dx. Here are your specs:

    http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docid=emr_na-c02548013

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See p. 23. Your laptop has the CPU i3 - 370 M and UMA (Intel HD) video so, unfortunately, the processor is not extensible because it is soldered to the motherboard. Put video updated would also require the replacement of the motherboard. CPU upgrades are very difficult and rarely justify financially, in any case, but in your case is not possible at all unless you replace the motherboard, which is even more expensive and less be justified financially. The cost of high end motherboard and CPU and work, you might as well buy a new laptop.

    But all is not lost. The best upgrade, you can do is to install an SSD. You can also switch to 8 GB of RAM. An upgrade will be useful, together, they would be a game-changer.

    You would need 2 x 4 GB modules specified thus:

    Memory module (DDR3 PC3 - 10600 1333 MHz) - 4096 MB 599092-001

    https://www.Amazon.com/HP-VH641AT-4-GB-DDR3-PC3-10600/DP/B0030L3B8E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8 & qid = 1472066313 & SR = 8-1 & Keywords = 599092-001

    This model is very, very picky about the memory and it must have 8 black blocks on the side, not 4. Also very intolerant of memory not specified in general. Remember that I bound will work. 'How to' on the manual p.60.

    SSDS are a little harder to choose (as many options) and what I need to know is your budget. I recommend at least a concert 500 class SSD and which will cost $120-160. Since you have 10 Windows, it would be easy to download the Microsoft recovery media directly and simply reinstall, then find the drivers and applications and migrate the data. The installation will be ignited automatically the first time that the computer is connected to the internet. You can also clone the existing content of the new SSD hard drive, but I do not recommend with a facility that is malfunctioning.

    We also probably discuss blowing dust and verification of thermal management in general. A laptop that suddenly becomes very slow, as you describe may have a hard drive problem, too. You need to run diagnostics on the hard drive and also just to check to see if it is full. Drops of performance as a rock if the hard disk reaches 90 percent and more capacity.

    Let us know if you have any other questions.

  • AMD Mobility Radeon driver for HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC

    Product name: HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC

    Product number: QJ920AV #ABA

    Windows 7 64 bit

    I'll try to find the latest official (non-beta) driver for my amd computer graphics card, but it is difficult to find because AMD archive not their drivers to facilitate downloading and their latest drivers are incompatiable with mine.

    In addition, the laptop manufacturer, despite saying that I should download drivers of them, does not update their drivers at all, so I have to go to the AMD website to download the latest drivers from there, which I can't do anyway...

    So, can anyone link me to the latest driver for mobility non-beta amd for an AMD Mobility Radeon series 6700 map m is compatible with switchable graphics?

    Note: The official amd driver check tool does not thereby. Whenever I try to use it, it tells me to use my manufacturer provided to pilots, but those are outdated, so the circle continues.

    Provided official HP Windows 7 drivers for your computer can be found on the page of CTO Edition Entertainment Notebook PC drivers HP Pavilion dv6t Quad - b 6, 00. The official drivers only function correctly with graphics switchable HP are those provided by HP. try to use the downloaded drivers directly from Intel or AMD will not work because they do not support changes made by HP.

    An option that is very popular with people who want more drivers, is the third-party provider http://leshcatlabs.net/.  -I recommend read you and well understand why driver signature enforcement must be disabled to load these drivers and what risks it may pose. You may also consider reading this HP Forum thread titled How can I use the latest drivers for my ATI/AMD card?
