Windows 8 and updates from HP

I have a HP Pavillion a1310n to I think 2005ish and decided to use it to test windows 8. So far, its very good, but I have two questions which seem to me in court from HP.

1. I have shutdown/restart options, but no sleep/wake. Where is it?

2 trying to figure out which made me think the updates of the HP software for drivers and such to happen automatically. Since I installed windows 8 directly form windows I don't have any software of hp more then... is it possible to get it?

2A. I have four more new HP computers running windows 7 and if I want to upgrade to windows 8 to the future I pressume that question is big enough.

Hello

Install version 8 to win a HP Support Assistant. This will warn you if updates are available.

  • Envy 17 3010eg: upgrade to Windows 8 and update Bios: no switchable graphics and other problems

    Hello

    I'm of the Germany, but I'll do my best to write this in English.

    The product name and number: HP Envy 17 3010eg {information}

    Operating system: Windows 8 Pro 64-bit

    Drivers: everything up to date

     

    Long story short,

    I just wanted to upgrade the pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit to the new Windows 8 Pro 64-bit.

    So I waited until the driver for Windows 8 support has been completed by HP.

    This month, I noticed that HP has released a graphic driver for Windows 8.

    Happy as I was I installed Windows 8 immediately via upgrade function.

    I installed all the missing drivers.

    * Update Bios to F.08*

    I noticed that I had to upgrade my Bios to version F.08 to install new graphics drivers. I did the upgrade and installation of the driver.

    BUT after the update to the version of the Bios the laptop only F.08 recognized the AMD graphics card. The integrated Intel HD 3000 graphics card had disappeared!

    Even after installing the new graphics driver, the Intel card is still missing in the 'Device Manager' of Windows 8.

    The battery life is now about 1 1/2 to 2 hours maximum because the laptop always uses the card AMD.

    So I looked in the 'new' Bios, but I have not found a way to change the graphics card. So I think that there is only a 'software' switch to do so.

    I have installed "AIDA64"and look under "Graphics".» The graphics card Intel HD 3000 has been mentioned as 'disabled'.

    Nice, but I have no idea how to turn it on again.

    So I re-installed Windows 8. This time, I did a completely clean install. With the same results.

    So, I switched to Windows 7, and there you go. Two graphics cards are displayed in "Device Manager" and the switchable graphics feature works perfectly (! even with the new version of the Bios F.08!).

    * Tested in Bios Version F.09*

    Yesterday, I noticed another Bios Update. This time in version F.09.

    So, I updated the Bios with Windows 7 installed.

    Everything went well (I thought!).

    Once, I've done a completely new installation of Windows 8 to take a peek, if Intel HD 3000 card will be recognized this time.

    BUT without success...

    So, I thought that the problem could only be Windows 8, because Windows 7 works perfectly.

    * Problems with Bios Version F.09*

    BUT then, I noticed a strange behaviour of my laptop:

    -proximity sensor no longer works

    -the keyboard backlight cannot be (DIS-) activated

    -the brightness of the backlight is half as usual

    -internal fans are going crazy-> they accelerate without reason (laptop is idle) and won't slow down until I do a re-boot

    * Version of the Bios downgraded to F.05*

    So, I spent to the version of the Bios to the older Version available: F05

    And I was a little shocked by the result.

    Windows 8 acknowledged the Intel HD 3000 graphics card again!

    The problem is the Bios!

    Then, I upgraded the version of Bios version to see which version of the cause of the problem:

    Œuvres F05

    Œuvres F.06

    F.08 does not work

    F.09 does not work

     

    So I decided to stay with the version F.06

    BUT to install the new Windows graphic 8 driver you need the version of Bios F.08 (min.).

    I installed the driver anyway...

    I found myself with a black screen... I had to reinstall Windows completely.

    Yet more long story short,

    I ended up using Windows 8 Pro 64 - bit with the graphics card AMD only.

    I also updated the Bios (back) to the version F.08 dispelled the problems with the version of the Bios F.09 I mentioned.

    So for the moment I am absolutely no idea what the problem might be.

    The support has not yet heard of these problems and I have not found any website which explains the same problem.

    Every posting, I found explains that the AMD card is not recognized by Windows 8 but Intel HD card.

    Someone else got the same problems?

    What do you think? Is it really a problem with the Bios?

    What can I do to solve the problem?

    for me the best driver are:

    http://leshcatlabs.NET/

    Works Perfekt (cards during execution of the F06 BIOS and a map when F08/09) and are updated often.

  • Can I safely remove Windows: images and faxes from my computer?

    I am running Windows XP and need help.  When you download a pdf file, then try to launch or save to downloads for open with Adobe Reader, Windows Picture and Fax Viewer jumps forward and displays a message indicating that no preview is available in full-screen.  Can I eliminate this problem by removing Windows Picture and Fax Viewer on my computer, since I never use images and faxes in any case.  If it is safe to do so, how can I go about it?  Thank you

    Pat J

    Why not check your file Associations for you ensure that when XP meets a PDF file, it will use Adobe Reader to open it (or if some PDF reader you choose).

    To do this, in Windows Explorer, click Tools, folder, File Types options and find the PDF file extension.

    If it is not associated with Adobe Reader, click on edit and select Adobe Reader and put a checkmark in the box to "always use the selected program to open this type of file", click OK and close.

    You can get similar results by right-clicking a PDF file, choose open with..., choose the program, etc.

    See how things work now.

  • OK, I have a legal copy of vista Home premium with service packs and updates from microsoft and want to start clean with a clean installation I do not have the original, only recovery and put installation disc at level Express disc?

    OK, I know that this may be simple for most, but I have an of a moment _ this find.  As I said legal copy that has been saved... I backed up all my files on DVD, I don't care if I lose all the programs that I can always download them later.  Basically I want is that it was when I brought home the first time.  I searched high and low for the original disc of Vista but no luck.  I do not have people upgrade at any time, but I was not able to find a definitive answer about it online.  Not too complicate it again but I have 4 GB of ram and processor can run 64-bit, and I have 32-bit curently I'm sure you know where I'm going with that.  I know a little about how to do it, but want reasurance and direction from someone who knows hit safe and ready to help.  Any person who get end to this nightmare for me will be really appreciated.

    Shaun

    Contact the manufacturer to obtain a set of recovery discs original (for a fee) and use them to make the initial installation.  Activate it.  Then you can do the upgrade and activate that.  You must install the original operating system in order to install the upgrade.  If you are going from 32 bits to 64 bits that cannot be done with an upgrade - which requires complete and clean installation.

    Here is the Microsoft policy on replacement software; http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326246.

    I hope this helps.
