• Compatible drivers for Windows 7 for Sleekbook 15-B011NR

  The original hard drive running Windows 8 crashed, and I replaced it with a hard drive running Windows 7 from my old wifes computer that had a screen of shatterd. I find it very difficult to get the correct drivers to run because this drive is looking for everything that is installed on the other computer.

  Sheet 15-B011NR:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-Sleekbook-15-B000/5296234/model/5337008/document/C03...

  The new hard drive came from here:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-Sleekbook-15-B000/5296234/model/5337008/document/C03...

  Some of the main issues are:

  -The HDMI does not work, or ports USB on the right side of the computer works, but the left did.

  -I can't watch videos for work in class, even if it could be the site itself, I know that a lot of people have problems with our universities online capabilities.

  -When I open something like Solitaire I get a message saying ' hardware acceleration is disabled or not supported by your video card driver, which could slow down the performance of the game. " Make sure that you have the latest driver installed video card, and that hardware acceleration is turned on. »

  -When I tried to update USB drivers he cancelled on me with a message saying "before installing the drivers and DisplayLink Core software, please install OEM drivers for graphics hardware of your PC up-to-date."

  The computer works fine, internet works fine and it does the whole job, but I'm afraid just because I'm a student adult with some courses online and I don't want to end up screwing myself in the middle of the semester. I'm really just need help on is the ability to restore full function at all with the right drivers, or if I should suck to the top and buy a recovery of Windows 8. I had a long chat with HP Tech Support and they told me that my only option was to buy either a replacement hard drive, or buy the recovery of Windows 8, and that I would not be able to install a new hard drive and still less a different OS, which I had already done and is what I was using to speak with them , so I'm not too convinced that this cannot be corrected. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  Sorry, it took so long for me to get back to you, my computer has been... Well, she's been through things to say the least.

  Unfortunately, those said drivers did not work, but however, I found a solution.

  HP support didn't help either and actually ended up put me in a worse situation that I started taking my system remote access, and then start a factory reset which left me with zero work drivers and without operation of the NICs can connect to the internet via an ethernet cable.

  Anyway, one of my friends found a way to make a free recovery for Windows 8 USB. All you need is a USB key with at least 6 GB that you are willing to completely remove, or is already empty.

  Google: create an Installation of Windows 8 media

  or follow the instructions on this link:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media

  For all those who may run into problems, that's all I know, and I'm sorry, but I'm not an expert:

  I created the recovery drive and installed it, and everything worked perfectly. No access code required because with computers pre-installed with Windows 8, your access code is built into the BIOS. If you use a hard drive with Windows 7 on a laptop Windows 8, first make sure that your BIOS has 'Legacy Mode' active, even after the installation of Windows 8 by following the steps in the link above. That's as far as I know and what I did, and it works perfectly.

  Thanks for your help, it was greatly appreciated and for anyone else having the same problems, I hope that what I gave helps.

• Windows 7 on Sleekbook 6-1153eo

  Hello

  I don't think I have to say why I won't use windows 8...

  Is it possible to use windows 7 on a 6-1153eo Sleekbook? I can't find the drivers at all.

  Succeeded to install network card drivers but not the graphics, wifi, usb drivers and of the chipset.

  Anyone? ;-)

  Best regards

  Kristoffer

  You can try this driver.

  http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&swItem=ob-105479-1&mode=4&IDX=1&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=3688868

  How about the AMD Web site?  Have you tried all the drivers from there?

  You must run this tool first, but if it passes, maybe it will connect you to a working driver.

• Decommissioning of windows on HP sleekbook 15-b009ee 06:52

  Hello

  I need your help. I have a HP sleekbook 15 - b009ee which was pre installed with windows 8. I want this downgrade to windows 7 because windows 8 is a disaster for me! I'm ready to give up with my laptop. Please guide me on how to install windows 7. I am trying to install windows 7 on a usb key, but it does not start.

  Thank you!

  Kind regards

  Michael

  Hey, Michael:

  Couple to make sure things of...

  1. you need to change 2 BIOS settings to be able to install and run W7 on laptops that come with the W8/8.1.

  See the information below for the settings to be changed.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03736054

  2. plug your flash installation of W7 drive into the USB2 port.  It will probably not start from a port USB3.

• 15 - b142dx downgrade Windows 7

  I am trying to downgrade a Windows 8 (HP Sleekbook 15-b142dx) laptop to Windows 7, unfortunately I was not able to find the SATA drivers to do successfully. If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be very appreciated. Please and thank you.

  It shows well in mine... that first of all, I have to go and get rid of all partitions before you start on the hard drive.   I would check your bios definition also I think that there is a protection measure in there I can have changed before I inserted the windows disc.

• HP Sleekbook 15-b004tu: Windows 10 work

  I have Windows 8 running by default HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15-b004tu

  How to check Windows 10 working or not on this laptop?

  and also all the drivers are available or not?

  ...

  Nikunjkacha

  Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the problem, that you are facing is that Microsoft provides only pilots with the most basic features and what you really need for these features in laptops is the specialized drivers written for the specific material found in laptops - and unfortunately, there is no HP Win10 laptop driver.
  
  However, for the MS drivers that don't work well, you might consider using drivers HP Win8 - although there is no guarantee that these drivers will work.  Here is the link to the page of software and drivers HP product for Win8 to your PC:
  
  If this page does not display Win8x when you open it, then click EDIT and select Windows 8 x using the menu drop down.
  
  You may need to install the drivers using the compatibility mode: http://www.windows10forums.com/articles/compatibility-mode.7/

  Since the restoration of Win10 function is known to be unreliable, the safest to do before the upgrade thing performs an image with Macrium Reflect backup.

  Macrium reflect (MR) provides a FREE version that can be used to image and restore partitions or drives together: http://www.macrium.com/reflectfree.aspx
  
  What I recommend is the following:
  (1) download and install Macrium reflect (MR)
  (2) run M. and choose the option: "Create an image of the partition (s) required to backup and restore Windows" to write a full backup to an external drive or USB key
  (3) use the option to create a CD or a USB startup key
  
  My experience is that SIR, when you use the option of Compression high, typically allows to compress the image file recorded at about 50% of the space USED in the OS partition.  This means that if you have a 40GB and 80GB OS partition is used, MR must only about 20 GB to store the image file.
  
  I use all the time and it usually takes less than 10 minutes to make the backup of the image and at the same time or less do a restore.
  
  NOW, you have the means to restore a full system that works for the external hard drive or USB key in a few minutes.

  Have fun experimenting with Win10!

  Good luck

• HP Pavilion Sleekbook PC 14: Recovery of Windows 8: PC in a reboot cycle?

  Laptop model: HP Pavilion Sleekbook PC 14
  Product number: C7D58PA #AKL
  The system board ID: 18F9
  BIOS version: F 18
  Editor BIOS: Insyde

  64-bit Windows 8 (I think, unless he updated to 8.1 I don't know)

  No drive CD or DVD (Ultrabook).

  It is a laptop from a friend. At one point, he pointed out that it shows just a black screen with the mouse cursor after the start it (after loading Windows 8). He has no idea of what happened before that, I read a lot of online reports of people having problems after such a broken Microsoft updates for Windows 8 or 8.1.

  Anyway, it goes well with the idea of "clean install", nothing needs to be backed up. Recovery media (USB key) was created at the time. I start the laptop with the recovery media and get to HP Recovery Manager. I select 'Factory Reset' which is supposed to erase the whole hard drive and restore the initial factory condition.

  After some time (30-60 minutes, not sure), it has completed preparations, which I assume were re - create the recovery on the hard drive partition, etc. It is said the PC will start itself several times during the recovery process, and I should not meddle. Ok then.

  After I let it continue, Notepad starts, HP logo and the circle of rotation. After a while, I see a glimpse of what appears to be an empty office of Windows and a window that says something like:

  HP laptop
  < date > < time > (e.g. 14/08/2015 11:15)
  Please wait...

  (there is a button in there I think)

  Which is available for a fraction of a second, but then the laptop restarts automatically just and this very fact time and time again, showing this dialog screen each time after you start HP logo. I waited about 8 hours, and it continued just do so that even, it seems that the recovery process is interrupted every time with a reboot. If this restart is due to a system error, where I can see the journal, IE. What is the error?

  So, what to do next? I have reset defaults in case where (though I think that nothing has ever changed in any case) BIOS, no effect. I have not tried to update the BIOS, but even if I find a new/UEFI BIOS for this laptop, I would try rather than as a last resort, or after that I have the PC back on.

  I also tried the other recovery options, lighter, ('System Recovery' and 'Reduced Image recovery') prior to "Factory Reset", but they have not yet further, I think.

  In addition, I ran a full system check in the start menu (RAM and hard drive), everything was reported as fine.

  Yet one thing that may or may not serious, in case there is a problem of Windows 8: since the PC HP is bought in Thailand, it has a cheaper, 'reduced' Windows 8 version. It's a play full version, but apparently a kind of 'reduced' version that Microsoft sells cheaper on some countries, such as the Thailand. I'm not entirely sure what the restrictions are, at least you can not change the language of Windows system after the initial selection of IIRC (when Windows 8 was executed first to complete installation preloaded, English was chosen as the language of the system).

  I mention this only because I'm not sure if it causes certain restrictions on workarounds, such as the use of some other Windows 8/8.1 recovery media created on another PC or downloaded an ISO from Microsoft, or somesuch. I have already learned the hard way that not all editions of Windows seem to be created equal with regard to the options of recovery, being able to launch the etc SafeMode (at least this was the case with my Windows 7, a lot of instructions online for just would not work on it because they are expecting boot options that simply weren't there).

  USB media recovery that I use is created initially, according to HP.

  Problem solved. Steps to follow:

  1. forget about HP recovery. Of course it does not work for me little matter how I pray, I went to come and clean up the entire hard drive of all partitions (I presume that the recovery partition went too).

  2. create the installation media Windows 8.1 with Microsoft http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media media creation tool

  I created the USB media on a USB flash drive of 8 GB on another PC. It will work and install correctly on Windows 8 system, no need to install first 8.0 and then he move to 8.1.

  3 boot from the installation media, install (I chose the option to not save or move anything old windows, after all he was not supposed to be any previous Windows installed) and a great success. I guess you have to download and install drivers from HP separately, perhaps,

  In fact, I am now upgrading to Win10.

• Windows 7 drivers for HP ENVY Sleekbook 6-1126sa

  Hello

  I have a HP ENVY Sleekbook 6-1126sa.  I need to have Windows 7 (not Windows 8). I installed Windows 7 (no UEFI). It's pretty simple. Now I find there is no Windows 7 drivers on the HP support site. HP support site advises to use Windows updates to update drivers or visit the manufacturer's Web site. Problem is I need an Internet connection to run Windows Update but cannot find the Ralink Wireless drivers. Looking for Ralink manufacturers website I find http://www.ralinktech.com/en/ (which States that the Ralink site merged with the Web of MediaTek site and one for pilots redirects to http://www.mediatek.com/_en/07_downloads/01_windows.php). Maybe somebody has an idea which driver I'm supposed to use? Updates of Windows actually work?

  Does anyone know if HP intend to provide Windows 7 for HP ENVY Sleekbook 6-1126sa laptop drivers (and indeed any other portable newly acquired)?

  Kind regards

• Where can I get the product key to reinstall Windows 8 on my WANT Sleekbook 6?

  Product: ENVY Sleekbook 6 (6-1110us)

  Initially, this laptop came with pre-installed Windows 8. I want to reinstall Windows 8, but a Virtual Machine, the breast so I can't use the bits of food with what he delivered. I'm under Ubuntu 12.10 as principal/host OS and will have several virtual machines of Windows running at the top of it.

  Where can I find the product key for Windows 8?

  There is no sticker on the box with a key, and I dug through all the paperwork that comes with it.

  Your help is greatly appreciated!

  Appears that Microsoft has changed the terms of the license with Windows 8. See the next root thread: http://superuser.com/questions/517142/running-windows-8-in-a-vm-can-i-use-the-copy-that-came-with-my-laptop

  In addition, a rather good article exceeding the various changes in the terms of the license of the new Windows 8: http://www.zdnet.com/how-the-new-windows-8-license-terms-affect-you_p2-7000003028/

  They consider now a physical PC and a virtual machine to be * separated * computers. Since the preinstalled Windows 8 use an OEM license, this license cannot be moved between the "computers".

  For anyone interested in doing something similar (mobile Windows 8 in a virtual machine), you must purchase an additional license. Upgrade license or a System Builder should work.

• Activate the AHCI in Windows 8 / BIOS - HP Envy Sleekbook 6 - 1153eo

  Greetings,

  My computer:

  HP Envy Sleekbook 6 - 1153eo

  Windows 8 Pro

  AHCI is currently disabled on my computer and I want to get the best performance out of it. It can be enabled easily through the windows registry, but to get this to work I need to be sure that the AHCI is currently enabled in the BIOS as well. When I enter the BIOS it's not just all advanced options available, only the time and date and other bases. How can I know weather or not that AHCI is enabled in the BIOS? How can I access the advanced options in the BIOS to turn on the AHCI (if it is not already turned on, that is)?

  Thank you.

  Kind regards

  th0d

  Hello:

  The BIOS of HP notebooks of consumption made in recent years is already set to AHCI, and it cannot be changed to any other setting.

  In some models that offer two hard drives, the default value of the BIOS can be on the RAID.

  Computers to only HP business notebooks have a BIOS setting to change the controller in AHCI or IDE mode.

  Go to Device Manager and expand the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers section and you should see a speed control that is listed as a SATA AHCI controller.

  In the case of AMD laptops, it can just be tagged as a SATA controller.

• Wanted M6 Sleekbook: Can I get my free 10 Windows upgrade after a recovery of the system for Windows 7?

  Hi guys,.

  I have a HP Envy M6 Sleekbook. It came with Windows 7, and its warranty expired 2 years ago. I took the offer to get a free upgrade of Windows 10 a few months ago. Now, I want to exchange the hard drive out. I have a ready to run on a USB system recovery but its for the original configuration of Windows 7...

  My question:

  Is there a way I can share disks and get 10 back Windows without paying? HPO only allows you to create a system USB once recovery disk, so I can't make a new record of recovery with windows 10. When I get the factory Windows 7 running on the new hard drive, I'll be able to upgrade to Windows 10 new since I already had it and I wanted to just swap drives?  Thank you!!

  This link should help you get started: upgrade Windows 10  

  You can install Windows 7 with your recovery discs and then upgrade to Windows 10 or you can create a Windows [USB/DVD/ISO] 10 installation media and use it to make a 'clean' on the new hard drive installation.

  Notes on activation:

   

  • If you have never installed and activated Windows 10 on this computer before, you will see the activation screen. Enter your key of Windows 10 here. If you do not, but you have a valid 7, 8 or 8.1 key, enter it here instead.
  • If you have already installed and activated Windows 10 on this computer before, click on "I don't have a product key. Windows will activate automatically after installation.

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  I read your post about the duty to restore the HP Recovery Manager and wanted to help.

  Here is the download link for the HP Recovery Manager: Latest HP Recover Manager download

  But facility that will not do you much good if you went to Win8.1, because the recovery files were pre-installed on your computer, not Win8.1, and the Windows Update did not update these files.

  So, if you do a recovery, and it works (which he could not, now that you have upgraded), it will only restore you back to Win8, not Win8.1.

  And, there is nowhere you can download the files needed for the recovery of the Win8.1.
  
  Good luck
