Random popup on HP Pavillion InsydeFlash (don't know model)

First of all, here are specifications and things:

HP Pavilion, think it's a dV7 or a similar name

Windows 7 64 bit

If you need more info, just tell me.

I was away to eat for about a half hour, and I came back to a popup with the title containing "InsydeFlash". It seems that it is a utility BIOS flashing, I've heard is never good, unless it's official since Windows. I can't install, and I don't know if it's a Windows utility official. He says want to update BIOS. I canceled there safely, and it seems to have disappeared (I ran tasklist on the command line, but found nothing out of the ordinary). My question is, if it reappears, should I run or it's probably an attack?

InsydeH2O is the name of the BIOS for HP laptops (desktop BIOS are called Phoenix).   It is provided by the manufacturer of the motherboard, not Microsoft.  This popup means that there is an update for your model.  You can choose to accept the update and follow the instructions for installation, or if you prefer do not Flash BIOS, there may be an option on the popup not remind you once again.

Hope this helps

  • I want to create a drop down popup menu style, but I don't know how.

    Hello, I'm slightly noobish at first, and an hour searching on YouTube did nothing for me. I would like to make some sort of popup on my film, which would have the information out, it is difficult to Word my question but I hope that at least someone understands me. For example, a larger rectangle which provides information on this comes out a little square, as an icon. I couldn't fit the rectangle inside without scaling, but I still want the words to be readable, can someone help me with this?

    I would use the titration for that module and keyframe of the scale and position.

  • error message random popup re: iCloud

    Since last week, I received an error message popup on my desk random. He says: "This Mac cannot connect to iCloud due to a problem with '[email protected]'." Preferences iCloud open on this issue.

    I give myself two choices - click on 'Later' or 'preferences iCloud.

    After trying to change my preferences, it asks me my password. (I guess to iCloud, however, I've never implemented).

    Frankly, I don't feel at this point type in ANY password in case some j@ck@ss trying to hack me.

    To provide a little more background, I called the Apple Support last week and explained what was going on. He thought that perhaps malware, so I downloaded and ran a MalwareBytes scan as suggested. Nothing found.

    Also running Sophos, once again nothing.

    Have I not concern about piracy? Should I change all or part of my passwords?

    Is this random popup a software problem? If so, how the hell do to stop? This once per hour popup in the middle of the screen is quite a nuisance.

    Thank you in advance for help to solve this issue...

    Sorry, do not understand how you are prompted for the password? Did you manually go to the system preferences > iCloud to see if you are registered in there? If you are, then on iCloud there and then reconnect again to see if the problem will disappear.

    If it returns, then log back in to iCloud, then go to:Apple - my Apple ID and change your password. Make sure it is a secure password (8 characters, upper and lower case, special characters, etc.). Then log in System Preferences > iCloud with the new password and see if the problem is resolved.

    Good luck

  • I don't know if I have correctly attached cooling fan shroud

    Please can someone help me, I have an Acer x 3200 vista computer recently, I removed the cooling fan to clean it but removed the black fairing first, now I don't know if I have attached the fairing of the correct way to the top and I'm worried that I'm causing damage. The shroud continues with label, that she looks, in pictures, but do not know if this is just because he's always strong.

    Hello

    You should check with Support of Acer and their documentation online.

    You mean that the CPU fan? If so as she on that's all you can do. The noise is probably in the engine
    or maybe even to other fans or devices.

    Of course, they can be replace - here are examples.

  • I don't know how or when I get a new phone with the upgrade program! Help!

    I have the iPhone Upgrade Program. I signed up last year and I have a 6 s more. I want a 7 (I have later), but it wouldn't kill me if it does not work.

    This is my experience:

    0) I went to 2 stores in the last three days and called APPLE 1-800-MY - I wanted to make SURE I had all my ducks in a row - and EVERYONE told me that if I wanted to keep my (AT & T) unlimited data plan and get a new phone as quickly as possible, I should go online at midnight.

    (1) online at midnight. Update to hit her until the page appeared at 12:09.

    (2) I went through the certification process of my current iPhone with my series 4 and the last of IMEI.

    (3) selected model, ability and color

    (4) congratulations! You are eligible for an upgrade! Click here to get your phone! (WOOHOO!)

    (5) I got this page. http://i.imgur.com/6oc1Cgl.PNG

    (6) WHAT THE @# REAL! & *?

    (7) I tried the same on iPhone and iPad using Apple store, same result.

    (8) went to bed.

    (9) stood at 07:00 (Pacific) and tried again. Has gone through the same process...

    (10) this time I got THIS SCREEN (http://i.imgur.com/a9y3b5q.jpg). Am I able to order now? What has changed and why I don't have to wait for the 17th? 10A) I tried all stores in California, Nevada and Oregon. There are no. 7 anywhere more available on AT & T phones. Period.

    (11) seriously?

    (12) using the cat online rejects me on straight away - the chat window closes when I select I want to talk about ordering process. The button actually closes the chat window? No warning or message which chats are full/no cat hours/too busy? It closed just the window?

    (13) I called 1-800-MY-APPLE and he literally told me the importance, I am to Apple and then hangs up on me.

    (14) coffee.

    I honestly don't know what else I could have done and how could I possibly be more thorough. I'm still without an upgrade, and there is no direct path to a phone now except the purchase of a pure and simple. But I have another year on my existing phone because I was stupid enough to give Apple upgrade program!

    What are my options? I can't find documentation on this process anywhere!

    See if you can get help from Apple on Twitter: @AppleSupport

  • I bought hundreds of dollars of music from iTunes over the past years.  My old computer died.  I have a new computer.  I don't know how to do neither iTunes nor any of the musice on my new computer.  I'm old (70) and cannot

    Don't tell me that I don't know how to ask a question.  I don't really have.  My question is, is there someone or something out there that can make me my music on my new computer?  I had everything buy once in the past.  I'm not inclined to do it again.

    Here are the steps:

    • You say that you have a new computer.  I guess that's literally true, and so it has the latest operating system.
    • Open iTunes if you have it on your computer.  If you don't have iTunes, download it from http://www.apple.com/itunes/download
    • Use the iTunes menu to navigate to account > Sign In and sign in with your Apple ID.
    • Go to the iTunes under the "Music" setting store
    • Click on the link 'Buy' on the right side.
    • Go to the "not in my library" tab.
    • From there, you will be able to download all the music you have previously bought in iTunes.
