Product name: HP Pavilion dv6: DV6 7138us to Crucial SSD MX100 upgrade

I'm moving the hard drive in my DV6 to a Crucial SSD MX100 and I can't get the BIOS to see the drive as a boot device. Arcronis sees the drive and I was able to clone the old drive.

Help!

Bob

Many reports of failure by computers HP laptop to detect the presence of Crucial MX100s. nobody has explained why and what I can advise is that yours is not the only case.

  • Pavilion dv6-4024tx: display random crashing after upgrade to Windows 10 (back to Windows 7)

    Hey all,.

    I used to own a computer laptop dv6-4024tx Pavilion which I gave to my father to use after you have bought a new laptop for my part. It was in pretty good condition when I gave it to him, with the only problem being that she would get very hot unless a cooling pad was used (which I it comes with). At the time, it was running Windows 7 Home Premium with no problems and everything was fine. However, it might be interesting to note that while I had it I had problems with random blue screens while I was with the latest graphics drivers, so I drove back to the drivers supplied on the support page for this laptop. After I "upgraded" to Windows 10 (do not perform a clean install) for my dad, the laptop would randomly crash and display something like the photo that I have attached, before going empty and show again several times. Believing that it would be a problem with the GPU, I went and Display Driver Uninstaller to remove completely all AMD drivers and software, downloaded the latest driver on the AMD website and installed. It seemed to temporarily solve the problem, but as it's always within 30 days of installation, I offered to go back to Windows 7, but my father wanted to leave it and see how it happened. Oddly enough, for the next month, it never reported the laptop crashing again and the time period for return finally expired. The problem of course back then I tried the same solution from before but the noise continued. I tried to disable the GPU completely from the Device Manager, so that the laptop was running with Microsoft Basic display adapter. He seems to have stopped the fracas, but less than a week my father told me that he had crashed again.  I tried to restore the laptop to a system image I had done years ago, but I learned that you cannot restore an image to a different version of Windows System. Finally, as a last resort I backed everything up and made a real clean install of Windows 10, and the problem has not yet disappear.

    My goal now is to return the Windows 7 laptop somehow. I can mount a virtual image of the system hard drive and access all the recovery files provided by HP, specifically the Recovery Manager. From there, I can do a recovery USB or DVD (s) we hope to restore the laptop to all conditions of factory (so theoretically return to Windows 7). I will try this, but I need a flash player more than 20 GB or several blank DVDs I don't currently. In addition, Recovery Manager says that this medium can never be created once, so it save me time and money (not to mention my last lifeline) if someone could please share their views on the question of whether this method would be successful or not. I know in case it doesn't work, there is always the question of registration of the OS by Microsoft, but I can cross that bridge when I get to it.

    Sorry for the essay I just wrote, but this has been a problem for too long, and I am at a loss to know what to do now (apart from the purchase of another computer). If there are any questions I'll be happy to answer, and I hope we can get this issue is resolved. See you soon.

    If you follow this step 3.

    You will need to select "format and repartition disks" as windows 10 will have changed partitions.

  • I have a Pavilion dv6 laptop and I want to upgrade the graphics card

    I'm the product: HP Pavilion dv6t - b 6, 00 CTO Quad Edition Entertainment Notebook PC

    Product number: QJ912AV #ABA

    Operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)

    Graphics factory-installed: Radeon HD 6490 m + Intel(r) HD Graphics Family (but I spend the Intel 3000 drivers)

    My graphics were problems since I got my laptop and I didn't realize what a few months after when I did a check on why my graphics running on low FPS. I called customer service and they could not solved the problem, so I started to do the research and updating my drivers for each of them and switching them too. I have finally fixed them and instead to run Minecraft on 22 FPS, I was there at more than 60 FPS.

    Now, this graphics card is good and all, but there are not adapted to the new games (and I've had this laptop 1 year). What don't get me, is why HP installs some old graphics chips in a new laptop. in any case, I want to see what I can put in the new card. I really want to install and Nvidia 650 m, but I don't know because I don't have any information on my motherboard and it is manufactured by HP. Why I want to improve it is because that 1.) This chip sucks and can't play the games of 2005 and more than 2). He cannot run newer games like I'm a player PC of BF3. I get a strong brand of 28 FPS on BF3-ultimate low quality on this game, he reached sometimes 30 but not much. I want this thing to run as good as my game desktop computer that is custom built, so I really want to know what works with this laptop.

    Please help me to know what works so I'll be better satisfied with HP products.

    -Spencer

    Read this document. This has been implemented by one of the community experts (erico).

    The answer is usually going to be no upgrade that has been done on the graphics card as this is usually soldered to the motherboard and designed to work with specific chipsets. The fact that this example uses the switchable graphics actually still less likely. I'm sorry.

    PC hardware is changing at a rapid pace, so you get a day probably will be obsolete in a few months if not sooner. I personally ordered a laptop and there was already a new model of the series which has a better processor and graphics card to this topic. Alas, I was outside the return period and could not take advantage of the new model.

    This largely depends on the software used, but cell phones are not usually able to achieve the same performance as a desktop game PC. My laptop performs as well as my office during playback of half-life 2, but there is a big difference when I play Crysis. The experience will depend on how the program is written and how the game engine is optimized. It varies from game to game.

  • Product name: HP Pavilion g6 N: windows10ophobic

    Hi all

    I'm looking for a new best friend with the patience to answer some questions for someone who just isn't getting it. That is to say: me.

    I bought this laptop with win8, updated to 8.1 all good 2 years ago.

    updated win10, OK at first, then, all bad. end of this week with an update and restarting the ensuing, leaving my computer in a loop to restart, wih "critical process died" will fix and reboot, etc. etc. etc.

    Microsoft hotline took an hour and could not solve this problem, then they sent me to the HP support by phone.

    the daughter of HP has got my first computer. has ran a few tests, then she started a factory reset and left me to her, she's happy, I'm happy.

    Imagine my joyful surprise when zero finished and I got windows 8 back, now I'm terrified because my day 30 return back option to win 10 is expired.

    is there a way that Microsoft can update my computer completely backwards without saying yes to 10 windows? and I'm sure to upgrade to win8.1.

    According to my other post, I cannot create a recovery key and do not have.

    advice options or help would be greatly appreciated.

    I really don't want to win10 back and glad to have a second chance with win8

    @oopsys: don't be upset by NOT Win10 to stay with Win8x and running.  I was one of the first initiates Windows Win10 test and I found so disappointing changes that I returned to Win8.1 and have had recourse which thankfully since then.

    Yes, you are sure to go to Win8.1 - and continue to use it as long as you want.

    MS can update your PC to Win10, but they do this by hiding the fact that you can prevent that from happening.  Finally, upgrade Win10 icon will appear in your tray system again, and when that is done, Windows Update allows you to hide the other updates - make you think you NEED to do the upgrade, but you don't have to.

    When that happens, there will be some fine print to show ALL updates.  When you click on that, you can see the level of Win10 in the list of updates.  Right-click on this update and select hide.  If he STOPS to update.

    I had to do this twice for a Win7 machine to finally stop.

  • HP Pavilion dv6-2120tx: HP Pavilion dv6-2120tx RAM and SSD UPGRADE

    HI guys,.

    I want to improve my ram from 4 GB to 8 GB or 16 and my 500 GB HDD 120 GB SSD.
    The problem is that I'm not sure what RAM and SSD is compatible.

    My current features are:
    CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT
    Intel Core i5 430M at 2.27 GHz
    Technology of 32nm Arrandale
    RAM
    4.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 532 MHz (7-7-7-20)

    Storage
    465 GB Hitachi HTS725050A9A364 (SATA)
    1 GB JMCR SD/MMC SCSI Disk Device (NULL)
    I think about Corsair 8 GB DDR3 - 1333 MHz (CMSO8GX3M1A1333C9) for ram,
    and Adata first Pro sp310 128 GB SSD.
    They will be compatible with my laptop? If not, what are those who do you suggest?
    Thanks in advance.
    Any help is very appreciated!

    It will take 8 gigs. It is aka PC3-8500 SO-DIMM DDR3-1066 and is the part specified in the Manual:

    The modules, PC3 memory, 1066 MHz FSB 4096 MB 579156-001 ■

    The memory you chose will likely work, but sometimes the fastest memory will not downclock and laptop computers HP certainly prefer low density memory, 8 blocks on each side not 4.

    The SSD that you selected will be OK, but I encourage you to spring for at least a 240 GB model. 128 GB is a bit of containment in the current environment and SSD prices are low, as is the memory. Never been a better time to upgrade. I just took a 240 on eBay, major brands, for $56 shipped.

    Hello

    I got a recommended set the HP Support Assistant program to update update for HP Notebook System BIOS (AMD processors).  I installed the update to the BIOS but the HP Support Assistant still says I need to run the BIOS update.  So I ended that run the BIOS update 2 times more but it prompt update with the exclaimation point in the promgram HP Support Assistant to delay the update of the BIOS is always there to want me to install the BIOS update.

    How can I clear this reminder of update of the HP Support Assistant program?

    You are welcome!

    1. If machine BIOS update after downloading, it will automatically start the system and show you the whole process and progress.

    2 just by downloading the BIOS update does not update. However no Expert here don't advise update BIOS to do as a routine, including through HPSA.

    If an UPDATE of the BIOS damage your laptop computer, you will not be able to turn on the machine - in short - it'll be no more than an expensive paper weight.

    3 If the BIOS has been updated successfully, then you go and not be able to on & do your work in portable as usual.
