Please mark the HP Recovery partition "Active" by selecting "Mark Partition as Active" using the Windows Disk Management Console. See HP - Partitioning and Naming Hard Drives (Windows 7) for information about using the Windows Disk Management Console.
If the above instructions didn't work and you didn't create your HP Recovery Media when you first setup your computer, please contact official HP support in your region / country, via the HP Worldwide Support Portal, to see if HP Recovery Media is available for your computer.
Alternatively, if you can still read the 25-digit Windows product key on the Microsoft COA affixed to your computer, you can install Windows 7 Home Premium using this key. Please see "How to Install Windows 7 Without the Disc" for instructions on how to download Windows 7, create the installation media, and install Windows 7 using the 25-digit product key from the Microsoft COA on your computer. This method will not install any HP customizations or value-added software and you will have to manually install all needed drivers from the HP Pavilion dv6-6c65sx Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers page.

HP Pavilion dv6: Can not find a Recovery Manager

HP Pavilion dv6
Windows 7 Home Premium
I want to create Recovery disc but I am not able to locate recovery manager. I tried downloading and installing from below link, but didnt work.

Also, my windows got corrupt once, so i reinstalled it with external windows CD with my windows product key and I still have recovery partition on my hard disc.

When requesting assistance, please provide the complete model name and product number of the HP computer in question. HP/Compaq makes thousands of models of computers. Without this information it may be difficult or impossible to assist you in resolving your issue.
The above requested information can be found on the bottom of your computer, inside the battery compartment, or on the BIOS setup screen. Please DO NOT include your serial number. Enter the model/product information into HP's Online Consumer Support page and post it here for our review.
If you installed a generic copy of Windows 7 on your computer prior to creating your personal HP Recovery Discs, you may no longer be able to do so. If the "HP Recovery" partiton still exists on the hard drive and hasn't been damaged, please use the Windows Disk Management Console to mark or set the HP Recovery partition as active and reboot your computer. Please see HP - Partitioning and Naming Hard Drives (Windows 7) for information about using the Windows Disk Management Console. Upon rebooting, the computer should start the HP Recovery process. After recovering the computer to a factory like state, you should be able to create your personal HP Recovery Discs.

Battery Question: Pavilion dv6-6c65sx

I have : HP Pavilion dv6-6c65sx Entertainment Notebook PC with Windows 7 64-bit
I bough it as a Desktop Replacement, so, it is almost my only machine.I use it all the time.
I plug the AC Adapter to it with the battery in place , But I am not sure this is the best practice for it.
I heard the battery gets weaker when plugged to AC Adapter all time.
What is really the best practice, knowning that I rarely move with it?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi,
If you use the notebook on AC Power nearly all of the time, I would suggest storing the battery as the machine will run perfectly well without it installed and you gain the advantage of increasing the usable life of your battery.
The primary factors affecting the lifespan of a lithium ion battery are the number of charge/discharge cycles and if stored, the temperature.
If you wish to store the battery, drain it to around 40% charge, then remove it, wrap it in a plastic bag and store it in a cool location such as a refrigerator ( not freezer ). It's also a good idea, once a month, to fully charge, fully discharge, fully charge and then drain to 40% again before storing.
Best regards,
DP-K

HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC unable to boot recovery disk

HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC unable to boot recovery disk. First when I power on my notebook it goes straight to the launch recovery or launch Windows normally screen. When I choose start windows normally, it goes to the window screen and freeze. When I try to launch the start-up with windows 7 start-up disk, the computer will not load the files. When I tried to complete a hard drive test, it failed with a failure ID 9UXNXA-55E65V-XD003G-60XR03.
I'm looking for a solution, can someone help?

Hi:
It sounds like you need to purchase a new hard drive for your notebook, and reinstall the operating system with your recovery disks.
When a HDD fails a diagnostic test, it normally means it is done for.

Pavilion dv6 will not boot up.

When I start my Pavilion dv6, the fan starts, the on key light on, light on f12 key and on caps lock key.
Screen remains blank.
Have tried taking out battery, and unplugging. Wait and power again. Same thing keeps happening.
HELP please.

Hi Thesaloniki,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook and getting a blank or black screen on startup. Try performing a hard reset. When performing a hard reset please note remove any and all USB devices, and remove memory cards from the card reader slot. Disconnect all non-essential devices. If that does not help try to turn on the computer you start to press F2 repeatedly till the menu opens. You can do a diagnostic test.
I would be happy to assist if needed as there are many models of Pavilion dv6's could you respond with the mode.. How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Please respond with which Operating System you are running:
Which Windows Operating System am I running?
Please let me know.

Pavilion dv6 Webcam not working?

I have a Pavilion dv6-1030ca notebook, and for the past few weeks, I've been having trouble with my webcam. When I open HP MediaSmart Webcam, I get the following error message: "No video device detected. Please plug a video device into your computer. If you are using an integrated camera please make sure it is turned on." I have an integrated camera, and it (usually) turns on when the webcam application opens. I am running Windows Vista with SP1, and have tried many things to fix it, to no avail. The webcam does not appear in Device Manager, under Imaging Devices nor any of the USB Root Hubs. So far, I have attempted to:
- Reinstalled the USB Root Hub Drivers
- Tried to fix the solution in BIOS (as another thread suggested)
- Attempted to use Recovery Manager to reinstall the driver (was not in the list)
- Created Recovery Disks to solve the problem (it didn't)
- Upgraded the MediaSmart Webcam software
I am in school right now, and I really can't afford to give my laptop away to get repaired for three weeks since I have exams coming up. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

I am in the exact boat as you.
Couldn't understand why all of a sudden, after about 3 months, the webcam 'device not found' in Win7 Device Manager, Google Chat, Skype, etc.
Called HP support, and they made us do a hard reset of the entire notebook, removing the battery, ac cord, and holding down the power button for 1 minute.
Webcam came back for 1 day, but I'm not about to unplug and reset everytime I am in the middle of a skype call?!
Sadly, HP or Costco (where it was purchased) doesn't seem to care or are willing to provide a solution.
Instead of recalling the computers, like automobile and other industries, they just wait and hope that the warranty runs out before it becomes a big deal.
They didn't stop selling them either, even with this known problem.
So now they have the G series of notebooks, and so the dv6 and its headaches can fade away for HP.
I have probably been involved with over 100 HP product purchases in my job the past 5 years, but this will be the last for the forseeable future.

1. Product Name and Number:
VM222UA#ABA "HP Pavilion dv6-1355dx"
2. Operating System installed (if applicable):
Windows 7 64bit
3. Error message (if any):
Dose not turn-on on AC power or charge the battery
4. Any changes made to your system before the issue occurred:
None
Summary of the poroblem:
Facts:
1) The laptop works perfectly fine using the battery.
2) The battery dose not charge using the AC adapter that came with the laptop.
3) The battery dose not charge when the laptop is turned on or off.
4) No chaging light turns on when pluged into AC.
5) When the battery is pluged into the battery slot on the laptop, the white AC power led on the dc jack turns off.
6)The very second I remove the battery from the computer, the white AC power led on the dc jack turns back on!
7) With the battery removed and the AC power supply pluged into the laptop, the laptop won't turn on, and the white AC power led on the dc jack remains on.
Tests done:
1) Used another adapter with the laptop, but had the same problem.
2) Used different battery, but had the same problem.
Interesting fact:
When the battery is completly drained out, the white AC power led on the dc jack turns on, but I still cannot turn on the laptop on AC power supply.
Note:
I Have a multimeter that I want to use to test the power supply and charging circuit on the motherboard, but I don't have a schamatics of the mother board, so I am stuck.
Any suggestions from the HP community would be appriciated. Thanks.

The laptop has a modular DC jack that plugs into the motherboard with a cable and does not require soldering. The first thing to try is a replacement of that jack. Here is the Service Manual:

HP pavilion dv6 fan not working

My HP PAVILIONDV6T-6100 laptop (Product no. LM720AV) is having problems with the cooling fan and overheating. I have started getting the cooling fan not functioning error at startup. When I use the laptop-the cooling fan runs almost all the time. It turns-off when I have only one application running on the laptop.
I understand that since the fan is running perfectly fine, the fan motor is still functional. Could it be dust accumulation that is causing the error and fan running continuously? Where can I get the insturctions for opening the cooling fan assembly and cleaning it? Also will I need to replace the thermal insulation after cleaning?
Thanks
Sunny

I paid $30,000 for my car but I trust the dealer to work on it because I know their mechanics do it every day. I could watch youtube videos and figure out how to do a tuneup but they will do it better. I will change my own air filter however since it is not too hard and will save money. Replacing a cooling fan is more like a tuneup than replacing an air filter. Still, you can do it if you follow the Manual and are careful. Here is the Manual:

Hp pavilion dv6 cpu not functional

Hello,
I have a HP Pavilion DV6 and after I press the power button the display remain black and the caps lock/num lock LEDs are flashing 1 time. I saw the LED flasing code and the error is CPU nou functional.
Please help me to solve this problem.
Thank you.
Doru

normally the only way to resolve the issue is to replace the CPU, if the unit is in warranty then HP will do this free of charge
I would suggest doing the following 2 things first however:
Power drain:
remove battery and power cable
hold power button for 15 seconds
replace power cable only
power on
BIOS recovery:
hold Win+B and power on with these 2 keys held down
if the problem still persists after these 2 steps then the CPU needs replaced
