Thinking of buying a HP laptop

Hi all

'M new here, so I apologize if this is not the place to post this. I think to buy an HP laptop. Currently, I have a Dell Inspiron 6400, which I bought new in November 2006 and have had nothing but problems with it, especially since my restore partition has been removed from a HD crash. My friend just bought an Acer Aspire 5335 and was amazed that the first time, he refused it, enabling software, he asked him if he wanted to make a backup copy of his restoration of partition on CD/DVD. My dell never came with something like that and to start, it came with the wrong driver CD in the first place.

My question is that computers laptops HP comes with a program like Acer empowerment technology that allows you to make a backup of the recovery on the hard drive partition. So, if your hard drive goes down, you are not stuck with trying to hunt around the drivers for your system?

Thanks in advance,

Tom

Yes, the HP laptops have HP Recovery Manager, which is used to make a game of backup recovery disk, it is also used to reinstall drivers and reinstall it from the hard disk partition.

Thanks Martin

    A single user license for activating facilities on both machines. A license of elements allows for each platform in many cases (recently not the case from what I've seen).  If you have the disc, see if it contains the Mac installation files... If not then you should be able to install them via download as well.  I can't answer with any certainty to the last question because it depends on the previous question.  Personally, I wouldn't let an inexpensive piece of software not dictate a decision to purchase expensive equipment.

  • How to upgrade a G570 instead of buying a new laptop!

    Hello guys, I'll try to help you turn your old laptop to a monster based on my experiences of real... I decided to upgrade my G570 instead of buying a new laptop a few months ago. The reason was I was satisfied with my laptop and new computer did not have the card I had in my mind. And of course the phones for my requests were around $2,000 cycle. I realized that the most important part of a PC is its disk hard when it comes to performance. I have been using PC for almost 17 years and I tried to upgrade my ram and hard drive all the time like 90% of normal pc users on Earth. A friend of mine who is an it engineer advised me to use SSD instead of HARD drive. So I looked on the net on how to put my HARD drive to SSD. You can do it on your own after this wonderful http://www.insidemylaptop.com/upgrading-memory-hard-drive-lenovo-g570-laptop/ guide I bought 2 cylinders 4 GB 1333 sodimm and changed the old Rams with them. Then I changed my HARD drive with a 120 GB SSD which is high enough for today's technology. The result is my windows 7 greets me in 7 seconds! I couldn't believe my eyes... Then I bought a DVD burner drive hard transformer support that you can easily find in the market. I put the dvd drive and put my old 500 gb HDD in there. Now, I have 2 hard drives on my G570... Now, I'm looking for ways to improve my i7 processor, although I don't need... Just to finish my work... In this way, I have a great portable quick spend about $250 instead of buying a new laptop for $ 1500-2500

    Thanks Dave, I only tried to think different and it worked very well. After the purchase of 8 laptops I had something too important: buying a new pc is not always the best solution. Yes, we have a new system but each system comes with its own problems and sometimes I miss my old PC. I hope this will help some ppl to decide on what it takes to succeed on a budget. Furthermore, I spoke with technicans of lenovo support and I was told that this motherboard and cpu is optimized for the best performance for the upgrade of this processor will be able to ask possible break down of the motherboard so I won't upgrade my cpu. To be honest, I really don't need that at the moment. Love to all...

  • Is it legal to buy a used laptop with Adobe software on this subject?

    I think to buy a laptop computer with Adobe CS5 Master Collection on it.

    Would I be able to use this software, if I wasn't the original buyer?
    How is allowed to work in a situation like this?

    Hi Darryl,.

    If this isn't a version of education (which are not transferable with Adobe), and if you meet the other criteria for a transfer of license, it would be legally possible to do so.

    Hello

    Some variants of the R7 AMD x 260 can run and others may not work. Contact Sapphire and investigate who have need for a model no UEFI that supports of four monitors (by you in other post).  You will also need a 500 Watt power supply.

  • Buy a new laptop

    Hey guys, I don't know exactly where to post this question so I'm sorry if I chose the wrong advice. I'll buy a new laptop after finding that it would be quite expensive to upgrade my only current because it has a close-knit motherboard. I'm willing to pay a pretty penny for a new, but I want to assure you that I do so wisely. I definitely want to stay with a HP laptop, but I wondered what one to get. I read that the 6th generation intel core i7 is not only significantly different from the 7th generation, so if I could get a 6th that would diminish how much I spend. I also read upward on hard disks compared to SSD and the effectiveness of the two discs, as well as HD Graphics cards from intel with NVIDIA graphics cards. What I ask is essentially what should I pay attention to and be prepared to spend a little extra for because it will significantly improve the performance of the laptop. I use my laptop for school work, but I also like playing Sims on it has been ridiculously slow and current lag on my laptop with i3 processor. Thanks for any information you can give me.

    I guess you are still waiting for a response to your last post. Maybe, I can add to the info already above.

    Right, I've actually read these articles before and have found them very useful is, but I'm still uncertain on what I should take in a laptop. For example, with the games I'm going to do is it better for me to get a 1 TB hard drive, a 256 GB SSD or a hybrid of the two.

    An SSD will give you performance much faster when you start the operating system from a program (especially games), video rendering, etc. etc. An SSD will give you the difference in most remarkable overall speed of any hardware upgrade.

    Some laptops have the ability to have an SSD and HDD. It is the most ideal that you can load the operating system and programs on the SSD, then use the HARD drive for storage. I'd look for 250 GB or more in an SSD.

    What graphics card should I use, an Intel HD Graphics 620 is going to be significantly different from a NVIDIA GeForce 940MX?

    The integrated graphics integrated in the CPU will be never as powerful as a dedicated graphics card.

    Embedded video works very well for an average as use watching a video, browsing the web, basic photoshop work.

    The ability to make quick graphic intense games depends on what game you play, and play on which dedicated map settings you have.

    Shopping for a car. Power/speed costs money. The more you spend, the faster the car.

    A 740M nvidia does not have a very powerful graphics card.

    For the high-end gaming, get the faster you can help.

    The most recent nvidia 1060 m with dedicated memory would be a good start if play stuff like cod or battlefield. The Sims on the other hand, is not as demanding and you could come out with intel integrated. The Sims 4 also has a parameter to optimize it for the graphics of the laptop.

    Integrated video is based entirely on the use of the computers for the memory Ram and is slower. Dedicated video has its own memory built in and does not need to ram system unless he runs.

    A Core i7 6th generation is significantly slower than a Core i7 7th generation?

    The amount of system memory should I get?

    There will always be many opinions on this type of subject. The biggest difference that I've read about this is that the 7th gen will have much better video handling 4 k, if you use the built in graphics of the CPU.  Otherwise, it's not a big gain in overall performance. But the latest models of PC usually have the latest hardware, so no worries anyway.

    7th generation CPU will only work Windows 10, no downgrading to Win7.

    Most of the gaming laptops will come with 8 GB of memory minimum. Who should handle most everything you do, except if you plan to make multimedia processing such as photoshop, video files high-end rendering in Premier Pro, etc.   If that's what you do, then more is better.

    IF you are willing to spend money on a higher end game system, take a look at HP Omen.

    Its configurable so that you can upgrade the hardware on the basic model to purchase.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Hope that answers your questions.

  • Which hard drive buy for my laptop Toshiba Satellite 15.6 "3 GB HD 320?

    After receiving an error of 10-FA12 - 054D and do not recover my laptop to zone out, I believe that I have to buy a new hard drive.

    Which hard drive buy for my laptop Toshiba Satellite 15.6 "3 GB HD 320?

    You can check the Toshiba site for which specifications you need.  A general rule is to buy something at least two times greater than the one that failed, because the data use and therefore the space doubles every 18 months.

  • Help to buy a new laptop

    I'm a loyal customer of Dell for 7 years. I am currently using XPS L502X. I want to buy a new laptop. Although I'm not a gamer, I found laptops of quality game well suited for my multimedia work. The maximum screen size is 15 ". After net search, I am impressed by the laptop Asus VX7 series VX7SX configuration. Everyone will guide me if Dell has any laptop configuration similar, available in India, which I can enter into another arena.

    Hi ramareddykarri,

    Thank you for your continuous interest in Dell products.

    I suggest watching the Alienware m14x which is available in India at the moment. The money given the link has the features and specifications.

    Hello

    You can install and activate the perpetual software (purchased) two computers of the same type (mac or pc), as long as you use it on one at a time.

    For deactivation refer:- https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activate-deactivate-products.html

    If you do not have access to your old computer because you have replaced a hard drive, upgraded your operating system to format your computer before you deactivate your software or your computer is dead, you can ask Adobe Support to help you disable from a machine, you cannot access. Have your serial number or Adobe ID ready, then contact us.

    To load the software on another computer, download and install it as you did on the first computer. Then enter your serial number to activate it.

    I'm going to buy a new laptop, what windows operating system should I buy?

    No one can tell you that, until you tell us what you want to use the machine for. A laptop to read PDF files, is different from one for the use of Photoshop or After Effects. Indeed, some might tell you that a laptop is not suitable for After Effects. Let us cast the additional question: do you plan to upgrade to Windows 8? Which could also affect the recommendations.

  • I think to buy a new MacBook to replace my MacBook pro mid-2010, which still runs but becomes slow.  They say the current MacBook pro without retina display (which I don't think I need) is an old system and may be obsolete soon - true?

    I'm buying a new MacBook to replace my mid-2010 MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel core 2 duo, 4 GB of memory, which always runs, but becomes slow.   I don't think I need retina display (if I have a lot of photos and films on the subject), but I was told that the MacBook Pro without screen retina was an old system that Apple could not support much longer. Is this true?

    Barbara cfrompa says:

    Apple only can answer such a question, and the terms of use for these forums discourage us discuss what Apple plans to do.

    I too have a MBP 2010.  I installed an SSD and that increased performance.  Consider that as an option.

    You may experience other problems that slows down your MBP.  Before commit you the important cash for a new MBP, examine the potential software problems that may be responsible for the poor performance.  With the SSD, my 2010 works better than the day he came out of the box.

    Ciao.

  • Buy a new laptop or wait until what Windows 7 release?

    I bought a new HP laptop. I just wanted to know if I have to wait until 22 October (when Windows 7 comes out).

    When HP will begin selling HP laptop with Windows 7?

    I suggest that you wait after October 22, which is the date when HP starts selling laptops with Windows 7 pre-installed. If you buy now, you will still get Windows 7 as an upgrade, but it have come preinstalled on your laptop is better than upgrade from Vista IMO.
