    Hi mkm.

    Were there any hardware or software changes made at the time the blue screen appeared?

    I suggest to close the PC and remove all devices in addition to the screen, the keyboard and the mouse.

    If the computer works without a blue screen for a reasonable period of time, you can start to add them one at a time to see if a specific device that is causing the error back.

  • do a clean install of Windows 7, 64 bit. but did not have the necessary drivers for my dv6t-1300

    When I searched on the drivers for all my machine, I get is an offer to scan for new.

    I need to download and store all the appropriate drivers in order to reformat the hard drive and do a reinstall complete everything.

    Where can I find my drivers?

    Hello

    All drivers and software available for download to your laptop can be found on the following link - ignore the option "Scan Now".

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?OS=4063&LC=en&cc=us&DLC=en&sw_lang=&product=3999445

    If you can still boot into Windows, another option is to save the swsetup folder at the root of the C drive - this will contain the installers for all the drivers and the software provided with your machine (the only exception is usually trial versions of MS Office).

  • Installed Windows 7 64 bit - 4 GB / 3 GB usable, whereas with Windows Vista 64-bit - 4 GB usable

    Hello
    I have the Asus N70SV B1.

    Specifications: (http://www.asus.com/Notebooks/Multimedia_Entertainment/N70Sv/#specifications)

    No problems with Windows Vista 64 bit, recognizing the 4 GB of RAM. After the upgrade to Windows 7 64-bit 4 GB installed / usable RAM problem / 3 gb. I also checked the following.

    1. I am running windows 7 64 bit, NOT 32 bit, I wouldn't be able to run Adobe After Effects® CS5.5 and Adobe first® Pro CS5.5 elsewise.
    2. the unusable 1 GB of RAM is not used by the operating system, it's hardware reserved
    3. the video card Nvidia GT 130 m 1 GB, shouldn't need that RAM - it certainly didn't on the factory installed Windows he dedicated RAM.
    4. I tried disabling and enabling msconfig - boot - Max memory settings, no option solves the problem.
    5. He has no option of memory in the BIOS settings to disable the cache in memory / memory the occultation.

    * I had to use the 64-bit of Windows Vista sound drivers work correctly with Windows 7 64 bit. So I thought that the version of bios or Vista 64 bit can thus solve the problem usable 4 / 3 gb.

    * Yes, I have flashed the bios to Windows Vista 64-bit and that still does not solve the problem. Although the system seems faster, it still shows only 3 GB usable.

    There should not be a problem with this bios version seen only with the 64 bit Vista OS recognized all 4 GB.  I am confused and have no idea where to go from here.

    Please help.

  • Problem installing flash player 11.0.1.152 with Windows Vista 64-Bit

    Hello

    I can't get Flash Player to install on my computer with Windows Vista 64-Bit - is not serious if I try with Firefox, Opera or IE (usually, I use Firefox).

    The download is not a problem, but when I run the .exe downloaded, the file disappears from my download folder and nothing happens - not to mention that the launch of a process called install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aih_3.exe, which does nothing. The usual installation popup never appears. After that I can not try to start the installation again, until the deactivation of the process via the Task Manager ("that one instance of this application can run"). No matter if I try the download and installation with or without 'McAffe security more' btw - same result.

    I have never had such a problem before - Flash Player 10.3 has been and no problem to install and use.

    I tried all the measures proposed in the troubleshooting section on the official website, including measures for advanced troubleshooting (uninstall the old version, run as administrator, disable the software firewall, disable antivirus, etc.). Nothing helps.

    I have never had these problems with my laptop running Windows 7 - just my desktop computer with Vista 64-bit.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    Try the following.

    First, uninstall Skype and when it is finished, restart the laptop.

    When windows has reloaded, download and reinstall the Chipset driver here.

    Once the installation is complete, restart the laptop.

  • LaserJet p2015 is not compatible with Windows Vista 64-bit

    I just got a new computer with Windows Vista 64-bit operating system.  I tried to connect my HP Laserjet P2015 printer, but it was not recognized.  In addition, the computer does not recognize the CD supplied with the printer.  Download the necessary software on this site?  I can't seem to find it on mine, and I am a novice when it comes to computers.  Any help out there?  see you soon

    Go to Support & drivers above.  Click on drivers.  Enter the model number of your printer.  A list of drivers should appear.  IF Windows Vista 64 bit is listed, click on that and you should be on your way.  BUT be aware that not all older printers are compatible with Windows Vista 64-bit.  I have a HP Scanjet 4470c which is not compatible with Windows Vista 64 bit on my new HP computer.  So I have a HP Scanner perfectly although I can't use and this Scanner is not that old.  Good luck!

  • HP G70-111EM - Windows Vista 32-bit (Trying to set at the factory and keep getting error 1002)

    Dear HP support and users,

    Model: HP G70-111EM

    I've had this laptop since December 26, 2008.  Last week something was wrong on the laptop, I think managed to install the Vista program 2011 Anti Spyware of viruses on the laptop by mistake and I was not able to remove it with anti-spyware or anti-malware.  So decided to return the computer as long as factory setting by using the HP RESTORE DVD that I created in the past of the laptop.

    Then inserted the DVD and the beginning of the process until I got error 1002.  Now I can't do anything.  The hard drive seems to have been formatted so all the information was deleted, but I start the process of reinstalling VISTA.

    I am really lost do - what I need to do to solve this problem.  I have a laptop £450.00, which has an operating system that is hidden in a partition, but how can I reinstall it when the DVD of RESTORATION HP continues giving error 1002.

    Thank you all for your support but no luck.  I decided to buy windows 7 32 bit and install on the laptop.  I had some problem with wifi work only not with Windows 7 32 bit.  But guys on the forum helped me with that.

    So no more Windows Vista for me.

    Thanks to all and no thank you HP, as it cost me £150 for the copy of Windows 7.

  • Windows Vista (32 bit) stops responding after installing the program...

    Hello.

    Recently, my Dell XPS M1530 (Windows Vista 32-bit) has been extinguished during the execution of the system updates (we had a power outage during the night and I didn't) and would only start in safe mode. I moved all my documents on a portable HARD drive and reinstalled the operating system to try to save the computer.

    After I did that and reinstalled the drivers (downloaded from the Dell site via my system identification label), I started to load my programs on it (Adobe, Microsoft Office, etc.). After I install a program and exit the installation window, Vista stops responding. I can't click on the Start button (the mouse will go over it, but it does not allow me to select) or one of the other button I have in my toolbar. I can't click anything in the Dock of Dell at the top of my screen, either.

    The only way to turn off the computer must press and hold the Power button until the laptop turns off. I HATE doing this, but there is no other way to turn it off once a program has been installed.

    Any thoughts on what is happening here? I hope this is just some kind of error on my part - I can't afford to get a new machine. I wanted to upgrade to Windows 7 (my machine can handle), but I don't want the same problem occurs.

    Thanks for your help in advance!

    As you re-installed Windows and the problem persists the rules well enough software. The power
    failure should be accompanied by a power surge or other that has caused a problem in the computer.

    Makes it sound like there are hardware problems that can probably be repaired. Have you looked at the system
