Pavilion Slimline s5510f: Desktop turns on but does not start

No problem whatsoever with the computer.  On the indicated start screen Windows updates have been installed.   I noticed that the update "failed" and was "back" to forecast position or something to that effect.

This has happened about 4 days after I tried to leave the HP screen download updates from HP.  The download takes forever and I finished downloading.  Don't know if this has nothing to do with the question or not.

Used the computer all day and then stop it.  Next day morning hitting the power button, fans have started, a yellow light flickered once and nothing happenn-no beeps.  The screen was black and then a box of monitor State said he was not getting a signal and entered into mode 'sleep'.  Key Board not light.

I closed the computer and tried a reboot.  Same thing happened.

I looked at a few HP documentation and videos about the lack of seed.  I did find a simular situation to mine because most people get a cursor on a black screen or an error message.  All my computer is turn on, a flicker of yellow light, fans running and there it is.

I tried to access the BIOS by turning on the computer and press F10, then F1 but nothing happens at all.

I removed the memory cards and reinstalled them.  Same thing.

I removed the memory cards and attempted to start the thing same computer.  No beeps.

I would like to make the backup disks that I made when I bought the computer.   I hesitate to do something with these discs.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.  But, what I read in the documentation, it seems as if with no beep with memory cards removed, it is the motherboard?

If it is the motherboard, does that mean?  Go buy another computer?

You're welcome, @EarlD1.  Novice, perhaps, but you did a great job!  It is one of the most difficult and scary for some, processes of diagnostics on a computer.

I read your first post again.  I think that the next step should be to test memory.  There are several ways to test, but I want to do the most simple.  Remove all the memory when the computer is off and replace them one at a time and start.  If the computer starts, the memory is good.

If memory proves to be good, I suggest that you try to perform a system recovery complete from the recovery media that you made when you purchased the computer.

    Hi all, I have a Satellite A500-148 from a friend who asked me to take a peek, it turns on, but does boot when I press the following power button occurs:
    -The power button and the charger are on and the hdd led only flashes once
    -The fan comes on for about 3 seconds
    -No image on the screen, I indicated a light against it, but there is really no image

    Tried to reset by pressing the button for 30 seconds without the changer is plugged.

    I disassembled it and noticed that this laptop has an external video card, so my question is, who's broken the video card or the motherboard.

    Thank you

    To be honest I don't understand this with an external video card. Can you describe how you mean exactly?
    In any case, on this virtual path, it is not easy to offer the exact diagnosis. You can try the little test and remove this external adapter, RAM and HARD disk, and try to start again.

    Ask your friend if he had something that may be responsible for this.

    I got my chromebook 3 September 2014, so it conveniently broke down less then one week out of warranty.

    When I turn on the laptop, it shows yellow exclamation point screen, saying "Google Chrome os is missing or damaged." I tried several times the recovery image, but he encounters an error every time. I tried to do the factory reset, but also, they do not work. I looked at the reason for the recovery, it says "0x5b no bootable kernel not found on the disk."

    I was wondering if replacing the SSD should solve the problem, I wanted to update my space on the drive anyway. I'm not interested in the data on the drive I have now, or the chrome operating system, really. I would be happy to just install Ubunut 14 on it, if it's a possibility.

    Someone at - it options to offer?

    Some areas may have problems with the seal broken. Fortunately in the United States as long as the device has not been damaged as part of opening the case, normally is not a problem. Worst case, they will receive your unit and if they have questions, they will contact you and go on options before something is done. If you don't want to do either of these options, we will ship it to you.

  • Defender is turned off, but does not give me access to it 2 turn on power

    These days have a lot of problems with my laptop.  Problems with starting.  I need to access windows defender to modify startup programs.  It is said that Defender is turned off, but does not give me access to it 2 turn it on.  In addition, different problems with different users and accounts by the office put in place, it looks like all my users are running different versions of windows, so I don't know where to start with all the problems.  Security sounded like a good place 2 start, so I guess I'll start by Defender problems.  (I have recently downloaded the free security essentials, safety signs so all green lights).

  • PC runs, but does not start. Monitor, keyboard and mouse with no signal.

    PC runs, but does not start. Monitor, keyboard and mouse with no signal. Pretty much. And when you want me to remove the battery of the bios, or whatever, it seems tight and hard to get out because it is surrounded by other elements.

    All fans work, the power/battery or anything that works I think that, since there is a fan on the right where it is and it seems to work. I remember what happens before, I don't know, but before that, there are many gels. This error below was made before all this happened, but I managed to run f8 and then run normally until it freezes again. Then, after that, it runs but does not start. No beeps etc. The best fans will have plenty of vouches and Bravo to wherever you like me to vouch or maybe send the great service that you provide to administrators if that's even possible, haha.

    Thanks in advance.

    Power supplies run about $50.  It is a rectangular box at the corner of the system in which the power supply will from the outside.  It's a pretty standard form in most of the PC and with a little investigation thorough replacements can be found.

    It is usually held in place by 4 screws and can be held in place with a spring clip.

    Most essential, is that you need to buy a replacement with the right number of straight plug forms to adapt to your PC.

    This seems more complicated than it really is and takes about 5 to 10 minutes to do the replacement.

    Look at the power output of the power supply failure and buy a new, more powerful.  New desktop PC usually come usually with a diet under size and what are the causes these failures is too strong a request for devices you have connected.  So, buy one with a higher power rating.  Usually about 500 Watts does the trick.

  • Satellite A300 - rotates but does not start

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A300. I had several probems for the boot since 2 months ago: when I want to turn on my laptop, it turns on but the screen keeps black and it does not load the screen "Toshiba Leading Innovation". 'Satellite' (to the left of the mouse) light is on (it would go only about a second then to start and then turn off) and it will turn off.

    I try again for so many times with all the possibilities: without battery, only with the power adapter, two, but it does not start. I don't know what I can do. I always Hibernate my laptop because I'm afraid of can not start it the next day.

    Could you help me? If she cares: I had to buy a new battery (not original from Toshiba) because I had to change the original. No more changes to my laptop.

    Thank you very much and sorry for my English written: S

    Diego

    Hey Buddy,

    > I had to buy a new battery (not original from Toshiba) because I had to change the original. No more changes to my laptop.
    Of course, it s always advisable using Toshiba original spare parts only, but if you notice the same problem with AC adapter only it s not related to the new battery.

    Just to make a better diagnosis: If you have connected an external monitor? The internal display is perhaps the problem and doesn't turn on and it would be useful if you are testing the situation and an external monitor.

    But this noise as a hardware problem serious and in this case, you can wait to contact an authorized service provider. Technicians professional diagnostic tools to make an accurate diagnosis and to Exchange defective equipment parts.

  • Pavilion g7-1368dx upgrade to A8 - 3500M, does not start

    My Pavilion g7-1368dx came with a processor A6 - 3420M.  I have the BIOS f.52 (works very well for months).  I tried to upgrade the processor to an A8 - 3500M (same 35W TDP, socket FS1, and turbo 1.5GHz/2.4GHz) for a boost of graphics (400 vs 320 shader cores).  It is listed in the service manual.

    With the A8 - 3500M installed, the laptop does not start.  The screen remains off while the Num and caps lock flashing at regular intervals indefinitely.  There are _no_ beeps, as if an error code has been given.  The fan works.  There is no disk activity.  I repeated attempts with other components disconnected one at a time to eliminate other possible sources of the problem, until it was just the processor on the card (without RAM, HD, DVD, wireless card).  I got the same results.

    Then I reinstalled the A6 - 3420M.  Without the other components, the system flashes both the NumLock and caps lock shift and beeps for appropriate error codes.  Other components reinstalled, it works fine.

    Is there something special I need to do to get this to work with my laptop processor?  For the moment, I think that the new processor is bad.  But I want to check something to try before I return it.

    Thanks for any help.

    The service manual for the G7 laptop series and is not exclusive to the g7-1368dx model. Different models within the family of the G7 uses different hardware and supports different hardware upgrade paths. This means that an element in the maintenance manual is not necessarily supported for each model of the family of the G7.

    Is the product number of the laptop A7A46UA?

    If so, the motherboard with this unit provided is 649948-001 such listed in the service guide. All the parts for this unit are here.

    I searched the part number 669690-001, the A8, a HP PartSurfer processor and expanded the note at the bottom of the result page to see what units came with this processors. I looked at three different models, and each of them had the motherboard 649950-001.

    Documentation that came with the A8 Processor units had a motherboard different than what the units supplied with the processor A6.

    Due to the A8 units having a different motherboard as the units of the A6, I suspect that the motherboard has your device does not actually support the A8 processor. I'm sorry.

  • Recovery partition is there but does not start Recovery

    Hello

    When you try to restore the image (F11 at startup), the laptop seems to be as he tries to start missing Windows installation (Windows Boot Manager error page).

    Partitions 'SYSTEM', 'HP_RECOVERY' and 'HP_TOOLS' have not been affected. Recovery files of ~ 15 GB are still there!

    The Windows (2nd primary) partition was deleted and then recreated as an NTFS partition. Since then, the recovery process does not start.

    How can I restore my intact HP_RECOVERY partition system without using recovery DVD? (I can't access right now.)

    The partition Windows has need of a specific disk label? What is the magic that breaks the recovery when an NTFS partition is all simply deleted and then re-created?

    Peter

    HP ProBook 6550 b (WD701EA #ABD)

    Solution: How to fix F11 penetrates is not in the Recovery Manager process

    You will need:

    -This fix by HP: difficulty to the Multi-partition HP Recovery Manager (the ProBook 6550 b is not listed as a supported model, but it worked for me)

    -installation of Windows (see partial solution above) a job to install the fix on your ProBook

    or

    -sufficient knowledge to extract the winre.wim missing the fix above, copy it to your recovery partition and to apply any measures necessary (I did this)

    Steps to follow:

    -in your work on your ProBook Windows installation open the file downloaded "sp48415.exe".

    -the files will be extracted in "C:\swsetup\SP48415", open this folder in Explorer

    -Right click on "F11SPFix.cmd" and run as administrator

    -the patch will be applied

    Restart und press F11 at startup to enter your recovery Manager (hopefully) fixed.

  • desktop application installs but does not open

    iMac-el capitan

    The cloud desktop application installs but appears in my

    Applications folder only as an alias that does nothing.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled the application.

    I have no problem with Photoshop.

    This problem can be easily fixed, it's just a typical user account permissions problem, when you are logged in as Root user, you will be having all permissions to almost all files and folders, but normal user account has all the permissions to most of the associated system files folders n, its default setting. Is that the reason for which the user account option Root is provided to turn on and off according to the user requirement.  Even on Windows sound, its built-in Administrator call hidden.

    Sometimes, even if the disc is to have all permissions, there will be an error, in this case, you can also try to fix permissions of drive running Applications > utilities > disk utility.

    First check the permissions of the drive and then click on repair disk permissions.

    But as I mentioned earlier, if possible check with Apple support once.

  • HP Pavilion Notebook 15-p119: USB charge, but does not sync devices

    With any device (iPad, Samsung Galaxy, FIIO x 1), if I plug it into my laptop the device starts to load, but is not synchronized and I can't access or transfer data between the laptop and the device.

    I tried to disable the drivers and their reset. I tried to reset hard devices. None of these help.

    This laptop came with pre-installed Windows 8.1. I have it wiped and now have a manually installed Windows 10 (64-bit). I have difficulties to find specific drivers. I used the HP support assistant and he tells me that everything is up to date. Windows tells me as the drivers are up to date, but I wonder if the drivers are generic and not specific to this laptop.

    Where I find a better driver? Or are there other solutions?

    Thanks in advance.
