HP Pavilion A1429.UK - No Sound On Windows 7 Home Premium

Hey folks, got a wee problem.
I have recently put Windows 7 Home Premium onto my computer. The install worked perfectly but every time I install the drivers for the X-120 speakers that came with the computer, after a few hours it disable itself and no sound plays. And I have to Re-Install the drivers each time this happens.
What can I do to stop this happening and to stop me installing the driver each time the computer disables the driver?

Your PC has not been certified by HP for Windows 7 or VISTA. Putting that aside, I suspect the sound driver needs an update. Go to www.realtek.com and look for a newer driver. Why do you need speaker drivers since the on board audio should do the job?
Go to Device Manager and look for yellow exclamation points, yellow question marks or red Xs.
Try this procedure:
Unplug the PC and open it up. Clean out all the dust. Carefully remove and replace all the cables going to the motherboard one at a time. Do the same for the memory dimms and the video and sound cards if you have any. Plug your PC back in a give it a go.

Upon running Norton Security Suite Diagnostic Report on my HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC on a Windows 7 Home Premium platform, it shows 2 (hidden) devices not working: Antilog32, and AODDriver4.1--Code 24.

On the General tab for device status it says: "This device is not present, is not working properly, or does not have all its drivers installed. (Code 24)" The only option available when I click
on properties of both devices is Start. When I click on Start for Antilog32, this message shows: "The system encountered the following error when it attempted to start the service: The system cannot find the file specified." For AODDriver4.1, the
message when you click Start on Driver tab is: "The system encountered the following error when it attempted to start the service: The system cannot find the path specified." I do not know how to proceed or
how to fix this, or where to find a solution. Please help!

Hello pds48478480,
Do you mean you got the error code 24 in Norton Security Suite Diagnostic Report?
Please share us a screenshot for better analyzation.
Please take a look at the following thread about the AODDriver4.3.

AODDriver 4.3 is used by AMD OverDrive which tune parameters to help system stability, optimize performance, and control cooling/acoustic characteristics.
With the issue description it seems the driver and the service is either stopped or not working correctly.
Refer to the link below and install the latest version of AMD OverDrive.

HP pavilion dv6-3143cl notebook pc running windows 7 home premium. How do I empty recovery disk D?

Is there a tutorial on how to do this anywhere?

Hi,
Just so that I'm certain, do you mean you want to remove the Recovery Partition?
If that's correct, see the HP document on the following link.

Rolling screen HP Pavilion dv4 1540us - 64 bit 4GB Windows 7 Home Premium

The screen on my laptop has started rolling intermittently. It rolls more when I first turn it on or after I have closed it and open it back up. Most of the time it goes from constant rolling, to slower rolling and eventually it stops. What can be done for this?

If you want to fix this problem the simplest thing to do is buy a Dell. Seriously though it probably isn't the computer at all. It might be your home\office power. We are seeing this same issue. Our troubleshooting shows that if the end user is using a 3 prong power cable they have this problem if they are using a 2 prong power cable they are not.
It's odd because normally the power brick will even out the issues with surges but for some reason it is not.
You can try removing the drivers and letting them reinstall but chances are it won't resolve this problem. Atleast it didn't resolve it for our employees.

Windows 7 Home premium recovery disc

Hi guys. This is my first post. So i own a HP pavilion dv6 3010-us which runs Windows 7 Home premium 64 bit. I had a problem with my laptop and the only way I knew how to fix it was to perform a clean install of the OS. So I gave a guy my laptop to reinstalll my OS and he installed a different OS! My laptop now runs on Windows 7 Enterprise. I want my laptop back to its default factory OS. My laptop didnt come with a recovery disc, it only came with a recovery partition on the hard drive. But whenever i attempt to boot up my laptop in recovery mode, it tells me "BOOTMGR is missing" I don't even know how to fix this error. And my laptop isnt even booting up windows now cause I set the recovery partition, that is not working, as the active partition. Please how do I get my laptop back to its default OS? I dont have a recovery disc and I cant order it/them from HP. Is there a way that i can create a recovery disc that will help me fix my laptop? (If im able to restore my laptop to factory OS, I hope i'll still have all the HP features and software)

You won't be able to recover to the original operating system.
Once the guy installed W7 over the original one, you lost the use of the recovery partition. It is basically useless space now.
The only other thing you can do is to use the product key (if you can still read all 25 characters of the W7 product key) on the bottom of your notebook to install the operating system that came with your notebook.
Most dv7 consumer PC's come with W7 Home Premium 64 bit, so here is the direct link to the Microsoft digital river W7 x64 Home Premium SP1 ISO file.
http://msft.digitalrivercontent.net/win/X17-24209.iso Windows 7 Home Premium x64 English
Make sure you get the whole file to download. Sometimes it reports download complete but you didn't get the whole 3.xx GB file.
Then either use your DVD burning program's burn ISO file option to burn the file to a DVD so that it is bootable.
Burn at the slowest speed you can.
Or, use this tool to transfer the file to a 4 GB USB flash drive or DVD. This tool will also make the media bootable.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/windows-usb-dvd-download-tool
Then go to your PC's support page to get the available driver and software you need.
If your notebook is running OK with W7 Enterprise installed, then doing the above will not change anything other than to provide you with the operating system that came with your notebook without any of the additional software.

Downgrade Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit to 32bit

hi,
I have a Pavilion tx1215nr which is currently running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. My laptop has 1GB RAM. I find my laptop slow I beleive the reason for this is that the 64bit requires 2GB RAM. There is no RAM upgrades for this model. So i am wondering if there is anyway I can downgrade to the 32Bit version.
If there isnt could you send add a download link to a windows Vista Home Premium 32Bit download as this was the previous OS
thank you
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi,
You would need to do a clean installation of Windows 7 32bit - if you bought the retail version of Windows 7, this will have come with both 32bit and 64bit installation discs. The same activation key will work for either version.

Audigy SE & Windows Vista Home Premium - No sound after sl

Hi Everyone,
I installed an audigy se card in my media center since the onboard audio wasn't supported in Vista anymore. Sound (at least 2.) seems to be all good until I put the machine to sleep while in Media Center. When I wake up the machine, there is no audio in media center, regardless of how much I fiddle with the volume/mute buttons. The only way I can restore audio is if I quit media center and reopen it (for a media center pc, this is sort of a pain).
Has anyone encountered this and what was the solution? Thanks in advance!
Here are my machine specs:
- 2.54 GHz P4
- ASUS P4PE-BP
- GB RAM
- Windows Vista Home Premium
- ATI Radeon 9800 Pro
- ATI TV Wonder Elite
- Audigy SE (with latest vista drivers)

I have exactly the same problem, with exactly the same solution (quit and restart Media Center).
Does anyone have any ideas? I have looked at BIOS options as well as power options, driver and audio in Vista.
I find it odd that restarting Media Center fixes the problem. The audio card must have awoke from sleep sucessfully? No reboot or anything else is needed.
Athlon 64 3000+
ASUS A8V-VM SE
GB DDR 3200
Radeon x550
Audigy SE
Netgear WG3T
Kworld dual tuner 30 PCIe
Only similarity is Media Center and Audigy SE!?!
Latest drivers for everthing.

Problem with built in camerar - HP Pavilion dv6000 - windows 7 home premium

hello
i own a hp pavilion dv600 laptop with windows 7 home premium sp 1 installed
yesterday during an skype conversation all of a sudden i lost the camera.
at the start of the skype call i saw and heard the other party and they saw and heard me perfectly.
then without doing anything all of a sudden my camera went dead.
i checked in device manager and cant see the built in webcam anywhere and neither can skype under the options menu see the camera.
i restarted the PC and shut it down completely to no avail.
any suggestions on how to get the camera back?

Hi,
Try this alternative method as follows.
Unless you still have the installer, download the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the page on the link below - the download links are towards the bottom of the page - and save the installer to your Downloads folder.
http://h18021.www1.hp.com/helpandsupport/hp-support-assistant.html
Next, if you don't have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip. Please note, if you have a 64bit installation, download and install the .msi 64-bit x64 installer on the link below.
http://www.7-zip.org/
Next, right click the HPSA installer you download earlier, select 7-Zip, select extract files and then click Ok. Open the newly extracted folder, right click on UninstallHPSA and select 'Run as Administrator' - you may well see no progress of this attempted uninstallation, so leave the notebook to idle for a good 10 minutes before restarting it.
Open your Downloads folder and delete the ‘extracted HPSA folder’ so you are just left with the original installer you downloaded.
Now, run the Microsoft 'Fixit' on the link below and use it to install the new version of HPSA.

'Provost' is just a term from HPs Forum Ranking.
All the best,

HP Advisor stops working on my Pavilion p6330f with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit system

My computer is a Pavilion p6330f with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit system. It bothers me when I get error messages and can't seem to correct the problem. After loging onto my computer a message comes on that the HP Advisor stopped working. When I attempt to load the HP Advisor it gives me the same message and does not come up.

HP Advisor-one of the first things I uninstall, flaky software.
Have you tried the update for Advisor from your support & drivers page?

Boot-up & BIOS probs - H-P Pavilion P6 2130ef - Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit

Starting up my PC has become an exercise in frustration.. I press the start on/off button and the screen stays black - nothing happens. It's unresponsive to ESC or F11 (to try and get into Recovery manager) or Cont/Alt/Del. It's only by pressing the on/off button at regular intervals that enables me to eventually get to the stage where I can enter my password.
This afternoon I did a Malwarebytescan and also a Disk Clean-up.. Thought I'd fixed it but still the same problem.
When I first got the PC I didn't make a back-up copy of the boot-up as I was waiting for a WD external hard drive - thinking what can go wrong with a new PC..? ☺
I think my BIOS must be corrupted somehow. Is it possible to download a new BIOS?
It's an H-P Pavilion P6-2130ef and I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.

Many times this is the result of a faulty device attached to the machine that looks like a short to the power supply. Try to disconnect anything that you don't absolutely need and see if it start OK. Try a different mouse and keyboard as well.

Pavilion dv4 3138tx drivers after reinstallation of plain windows 7 home premium

My Pavilion DV4 3138tx notebook recovery disk was crashed, and HP did not give recovery disk when it was purchased. I have to download the windows 7 home premium edition from "mydigitallife.info" website to download the legalized windows 7 reinstallation image. After installation, OS is working, but many drivers seem not working, e.g. ethernet network controller. I tried to download the driver from official HP website for model 3138tx, which is realtek LAN network driver, but after installation, it says "xxx files not found", any way, it is not working, and HP support told me they can not help me, asked me to go for realtek..... I looked up the network controller hardware ID, it is PCI/VEN10EC DEV8168SUBSYS..@$%&^*(&^ , I looked up in google, it is realtek chip for 10/100/1000 gigabit LAN network card. Very strange, anyone can help me?
As per HP advice, I also tried to reinstall chipset driver, which is listed on official HP website for drivers of 3138tx model, it doesn't help either. My laptop was purchased in Malaysia with origial windows 7 home premium edition in English, with product key at bottom of the machine.

When does the error occur? Is it a repeated occurance at boot or some other time? Any updates made to the system recently (Windows Update or other HP Support Updates)?
The normal solution to most problems with HP Support Assistant is to uninstall the application from Control Panel / Uninstall a program. Then download and install the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the HP Web site:
HP Support Assistant
Look for the Download HP Support Assistant heading and select Notebooks or Desktops as appropriate.
