  • HP G42 screen is black, NEW issue, on reinstall and restart, now stuck on desktop

    My notebook G42 has a black screen. I can't run, I can't boot my laptop in SafeMode either. I am very frustrated because I've only had it for 10 months, and unfortunately, it was a refurb manufacturer with a 3 month warranty.  Any ideas on what to do?

  • the hp G42 laptop screen problem

    Hello.  I have a notebook hp g42 I can't see the screen-he made an entry and goes, then - it seemed to me that he will return when the outside frame of the computer has been adjusted, but that is not the case, more... I see a slight insight of what is supposed to be there with lines through it - mostly gray and the variations of gray-, but cannot use the computer - can't see it well enough to use it... and miss me it!  Any advice?  and thank you very much!

    I really doubt that it's a virus. It looks more like a hardware problem with the LCD screen.

  • HP G42-415DX: in a Setup dual monitor, perhaps armored secondary monitor white screen?

    I have a Setup dual monitor, where the laptop is tied to a 2nd monitor (TV) via HDMI. I mainly use the 2nd monitor. Can I empty the 1st monitor (laptop screen) screen, yet still use the 2nd monitor with lid open to access the keyboard?

    (I noticed with parameters changed in the Panel of Win7, I can close the lid without cutting [sleep, Hibernate or shutdown] computer and had to lower the monitor display 2nd to adapt to the screen.) But to use the keyboard, open the lid of the portable computer, which involved the 1st screen)

    Thank you

    Hi Kalad,

    I think the same as you do sometimes, especially when I watch a movie and you want that it will display on the bigger screen and the simultaneouly have the laptop screen is off.

    As you need to use the keyboard of the laptop and want the second poster only, which suggests to select the "Projector" only option in the pop-up menu by pressing the Fn + F4 key.

    & to come back again having two screens or single screen press Fn Key & F4 on your keyboard and select "Extend" or 'Unplug the projector' options respectively.

    I am an employee of HP.

    Have you been to the support page for your laptop? I suggest try drivers for Win 7 32 bit are there. The HP Support Assistant would also be a good candidate to help you locate the appropriate drivers for your laptop.

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the problem you face is that Microsoft provides only pilots with the most basic features and what you really need for these features is the specialized drivers written for the specific in your HP PC hardware - and unfortunately, there is no driver HP Win10 for your PC. HP only guarantees the compatibility of Win10 for machines manufactured after August 2013. HP is not no matter what timetable indicating when, or IF, they will produce drivers for older machines.

    This means that your PC is probably NEVER going to be fully functional under Win10 because the drivers he needs for these features simply do not exist!

  • Laptop HP G42-303DX system restore error 0x800700B7

    I have a laptop HP, model G42-303DX, running Windows 7.

    When Windows tries to start, it displays the message: Windows Error Recovery / cannot start Windows.

    Then StartUpRepair launches and research about a minute for the problems.  Then it displays the message "Startup Repair cannot fix automatically.  I gave options: (1) sending info (can not since I can't it connect to the Internet) or (2) not to send (should I select).

    I click on Details of the issue and see the following:

    ProblemEvent name: StartUpRepairOffline

    Signature of the problem 01: 6.1.7600.16385

    Signature of the problem 02: 6.1.7600.16385

    The next screen to appear is: HP Recovery Manager

    I tried to do five different restorations, starting with the most recent restore point and working up.  All restore attempts failed.  In 3 of 5 attempts, I got the error code: 0x800700b7.  And in 2 of 5 attempts was the failure code: 0x8000ffff.

    I created a bootable (Kaspersky Rescue v10) DVD rescue disk and run a deep scan of 4 hours to check the virus, Trojans, etc, and it found nothing.

    When this laptop was purchased from Best Buys, we have not all discs.  I'm sorry to say that we did not create recovery disc.  I checked on the HP support site to order a set of recovery discs and can be found only for Windows 7 in the 64-bit version.  I don't know if this PC has been configured as a 32-bit or 64-bit machine.

    In addition, I use the Recovery Manager to create DVDs from backup files on that PC.  This problem started in December, and according to my daughter-in-law (the only user of that PC), it gave him no problems until this.

    I would REALLY appreciate any help on this... I'm a little at my wits end.

    Thank you

    Troubleshooting a result normally means that the LCD needs to be replaced. This also happen when starting the laptop?

  • G42, windows does not

    Well, then my laptop in question is a few years old. I had actually written off as dead and threw it into my closset since I had got a good deal and felt that I had great use out of it. But recently I started playing with computers, and I took, in fact, one out a pretty good Dv7 that I am confident will last me a good many years. However, given that I dug up my old laptop it was buggin me just what has happened to him so I started looking for answers online see if there was any chance to revive and perhaps do some updates to date and giving to a friend. But enough back story, you are probably wondering what is wrong with it if she's here,

    One day, I tried to load it up, and it is simply projected black. I tried all day and never loaded on the right. That's when I just said screw it is dead, and rather than go to the geek team or a place like this, I decided to save time and just go do something to replace that would meet my needs. When loading, it displays the emblem of HP and starts TRYING to load windows. However, once he is out of the splash screen, it goes to a black screen with a blinking cursor that resembles the underscore. It of almost as if it is open a command prompt and waiting for me to tell him what to do. so I know that this is not the screen. The other strange thing about this, is that I can open the BIOS and some other stuff by pressing ESC. When he's in this HP screen. However, no matter what I do, even after having to play with the settings, it is the same black screen comand prompt.

    I tried all the solutions I found online (now button, doing a factory reset etc.) but nothing to cause my computer to do anything other than that same black screen thing.

    If it's important, all the lights in the keyboard work, a suggestion said to try using a different screen, I have, but this isn't even reprobed to be connected to the laptop. I have no idea what it could be short of something in my software being off. Anyway, any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

    Moreover, it's a laptop of G42 running windows 7 if it's important.

    Hello

    It may be interesting to rebuild the boot configuration data - you can do the following.

    Start from the rescue CD even once, select the command prompt, enter the following commands and press on enter after everyone – including spaces as shown.

    Bootrec.exe

    bcdedit/export C:\BCD_Backup

    c:

    Boot CD

    BCD attrib s h - r

    Ren c:\boot\bcd BCD.old

    Bootrec /RebuildBcd

    Bootrec /fixmbr

    Bootrec /fixboot

    Remove the rescue CD and try to restart the laptop.

  • Support troubleshooting problem to display PC laptop HP G42-415DX

    Hello, I have a HP G42 - 415DX Notebook PC with Windows 7 64 bit.

    I have no display of the image on the screen and need help to understand where the problem lies.

    I updated the Bios and installed all corresponding updates.

    I reinstalled the graphics driver on the HP drivers section.

    I showed a flashlight on the screen to see if it was just the light back, but there is still no image, the scrfeen looks like it's turned off.

    I have the VGA output is plugged in and it works fine. I hit F4 and is currently on the computer only, even if the image of the screen is just all the external screen.

    Is there a troubleshooting method to see if it's something on the motherboard as the graphics card or the monitor itself without buying it? Or am I just a bit stuck guessing and hoping that it works?

    Appreciate any help

    Thank you

    Welcome to the HP, MG forum.

    Our own Distinguished Professor HaggisCat addressed this type of issue and explains what could happen in the Post below.  This can help with the diagnosis on your own system.

    Display on the laptop monitor displays briefly, then disappears at startup

    Excerpt of the Post, HaggisCat comments:

    The external screen works with Windows, which means that the video card and motherboard are very good. The laptop screen has disappeared, the backlight (s), the controller or the cable is defective. A part or the combination can cause a black screen.

     

    Because you can't see anything with the light from the flash on the screen, the cable has failed or the screen itself needs to be replaced.

     

    If you put a new screen and it still does not work then replace the inverter and if you still get nothing, the cable is the last thing that this will cause.

     

    Sorry, sometimes the only way to diagnose a problem's substitution, but before you go out and buy new parts, I always suggest that you take it to a reliable repair shop to get a second opinion.

  • Reminders do not display or stick to the lock screen in iOS10

    IOS10 (10.0.1 and 10.0.2), on an iPhone (I use an iPhone 6), reminders are no longer reliable. I had several cases where the callback doesn't show even on the screen lock and many more times when the recall won't 'glue' to screen lock for more than a short period. Before iOS10, when you said to remind you at a certain time or place, the recall would display on the reliable lock screen until she has been marked as "completed".

    It is a major issue for people who depend on the application for the important tasks and calendar. There is a thread of any discussion on this point, for some reason, has been marked as "solved" even if a large number of people continues to post telling him that there is a problem for them too (as the thread located here). I wanted to start this new discussion which we hope will remain open until it is effectively resolved.

    Thank you!!! This is a HUGE problem!

    Since the update I had to reboot my phone EVERY day.

    Is the stick of reminders... or they do not. Lately they don't yet show upward. Then other things stick to the lock screen can't get rid of.

    Currently this feature on the phone is USELESS
