Adding second monitor to HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010xt All-in-One with HDMI Cable

Trying to add a second monitor to all-in-one using HDMI cable. All-in-one is HP Beats Special 23-n010xt, second monitor is Samsung SyncMaster S24B300, Op Sys is Windows 8.1. Both are connected with HDMI cable, but Windows is not detecting second monitor. Have also tried a new cable, no success. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Here are the specs for your HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010xt All-in-One CTO Desktop Computer. Based on the specs, this model doesn't have a video output of any kind. The HDMI port on the side is strictly an INPUT.
The HDMI input allows you to use your computer screen with a game console or video player. To connect your computer to an external display, you will need to purchase a USB-to-video adapter such as the EVGA UV Plus+ UV39 or many other adapters on the market.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010 Use a Standard Keyboard Driver

I love everything about the HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010 desktop Except for the keyboard. I use various programs that use the F1-F12 fiunction keys. Trying to type Fn-Alt-F4 is no easy feat. I really don't need all the other special keys on this keyboard.
How can I replace this system's keyboard drives with a standard Windows keyboard driver. This system is running Windows 8.1 x64.

Hello @JohnG0814,
I understand that you are trying to use the standard keyboard on your HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010 All-in-One Desktop PC. NowI have gone through the User Guide for your computer and found nothing on disabling the HP Keyboard that you have by default.
I did however find something that may do the trick. In your BIOS which you can get to by restarting and tapping the F10 key you will see under 'Security' a sub-section named 'Secure Boot Configuration' that has a setting for Secure boot > Key Management > Key Ownership. If you go there you can change it to 'Custom keys', which I believe will resolve your keyboard issue. I am posting an image to help below.
I hope this helps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Replacement screen for HP Beats Special Edition

We have an HP Beats special edition - Model 15 p-030nr with a cracked touchscreen. I'd like to find a replacement screen to do the repair. Haven't had any luck finding a part number or anything. Thanks!

HP Beats Special Edition 15-p030nr Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR) screen brightness issue

I'm haing a screen brightness issue on my HP Beats Special Edition 15-p030nr Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR). I upgraded from 8.1 and the F2/F3 keys to dim or brighten screen do not function. Any suggestions besides reverting back to 8.1.? Not sure if I had the screen dimmed all the way or brightened all the way when it was upgrading, or if it even mattered.

When connected to lg monitor with hdmi cable i get no sound

when connected to lg monitor with hdmi cable i get no sound

The issue here is that HDMI cables, as the name indicates, carry audio signals to the monitor. Therefore if the monitor has no built in speakers then there will be no sound. If you have external speakers you can plug them into the audio out slot on the back of the monitor and the problem will be solved.
However, if the screen does have built in speakers you need to go Control Panel>Hardware and Sound>Manage Audio Devices and set either your headphone jack or the screen to be the default device. And then you ca pick which device the sound will play from. Either yourlaptop speakers or whateer speakers are plugged into the laptop or the Monitor and whatever speakers are plugged into the monitor

Added second monitor computer won't wake up

I have reviewed several support threads on the subject of a 2008 Mac Pro not waking up after it goes to sleep. I have a 2008 mac pro that was working flawlessly with a 26 inch asus monitor. My bluetooth mouse and keyboard would wake it up instantly. I decided to add a second monitor, a 27 inch planar.
I had the mac set up to save power and after just five minutes of non-use it would go to sleep. My wife asked me if I would keep it on longer so she could watch the pictures that show up through the screen saver so I set it to 15 minutes and then it goes to sleep. Now though, if it goes to sleep it won't wake up and remote connections from an imac fail to awaken it as well. I am forced to hold down the power button to shut it down. I have tried the startup where I hold down command option p r but I can't get it to sound a second chime whether I start after the first chime or before the gray screen appears. After trying this every other restart does not work, the fans turn on but nothing else happens. It is quite odd. I am at my witts end. I suppose the proper course of action is to disconnect the second monitor and see if it wakes up, but I am hoping before I do that that someone might weigh in on the issue and solve it. I guess I should also try a usb keyboard as well. Thanks in advance for reading this and I hope you can help me out with this. John

Ok, here is where I am at. I reseated the two dimms. They are now showing up. I still can't get a PRAM reset to work and I have not obtained a USB keyboard yet. I reset the PRAM on my imac with a bluetooth keyboard and it worked so I believe I am doing it properly. I reset smc via following directions on an Apple page. I am hooking up the second monitor now and will see how it goes. I will keep you posted. Thank you.

Adding second monitor to iMac and screen resolution

I want to get the converter to plug my 17 inch IBM SVGA monitor into my iMac. The IBM monitor is quite old (one of the first 17 inch IBM color monitors I think). I understand what converted to buy so I can plug it into to iMac. I have no idea what resolution is possible on the IBM. Is this a concern???
I probably will upgrade to a current flat screen for the second monitor later but would really like to try this and see if 2 monitors at home is useful or not.
Thanks!

I assume (based on the computer information attached) that your imac is less than one year old? Silver color? If so, you need to find out what connection this other monitor has. Could be one of two - VGA or DVI. If you have a cable for this other monitor already bring it with you to the store if possible (not ordering of the internet). Your imac can produce a variety of resolutions so I would not be concerned about that especially with a 17" monitor.
Could be two possible connectors - mini dvi to vga (probably based on the info you provided) http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9320G/A
Or mini dvi to dvi http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9321G/B

Hi
You can't change the processor from AMD to Intel, the system board sockets dont go with each other,
You may have to change the whole board itself, moreover the processor would most probably integrated with the board.
But I think AMD processor in that laptop is quite good & it's getting good reviews

24"iMac....adding second monitor...... mirror or extended desktop?

I have a new 24 inch aluminum iMac.
I also have a year old 23 inch Apple Cinema display that I was thinking of adding as a second display.
If I did, would that mirror my existing display, or would it allow me to extend the desktop that I already have?
I would like to extend the desktop. If I could do that, what connector would I need to get to make that happen?
Thanks for the help and advice.

You will be able to choose mirroring or extended desktop in the "Arrangement" tab of "Displays" system preference.
You will need a Mini-DVI to DVI adapter

If the display is the old 23" with the plastic case and ADC, you will also need a DVI to ADC adapter

Brand new HP Beats Special Edition 15-p030nr Notebook PC , Audio not working correctly

Just bought this computer for me 9/30/14. Volume is at 100% and while there is some sound, you can barely hear it. I have checked drivers, device manager etc and nothing seems to change it. I need to know if this is a defect in the system or if there is something else I can do. I hate to think we paid all this money for the computer, one reason being the Beats audio, and have it not work. I will return it if I cannot get it working.

HP Slate 7 Beats Special Edition, no update.zip

So, I have been following this document http://support.hp.com/vn-en/document/c04342242 but i cant find the link to download the update.zip can anyone provide me with the link to download the recovery image?

The updates are ongoing, but I have run into several problems accessing HP restore files using either Android or ChromeBooks. Just tried to locate them now with a PC, and I'm getting an error. I'll report it, and hopefully it will return soon. WyreNut UPDATE: After reporting the issue to my internal HP contacts, I have been informed they are aware of the missing restore files and are "working on it". No ETA as of yet.

Hp 15-p058na (beats special edition) hard drive replacement

Hi I want to upgrade the factory hard drive with an SSD. I'm looking for the instructions to do this - can somebody point me in the right direction ? thanksB

if you put the original hard disk in can you boot to the BIOS?
Had you considered that a Hybrid disk may just not be compatible with the notebook's BIOS?
Your attempt to upgrade to an hybrid notebook drive is the first I have heard of in an HP notebook.

Can't get around this error after adding second dataset...A scope is required for all aggregates used outside of a data region unless the report contains exactly one dataset

I added a dataset to an existing report and broke an aggregation. In the old (i.e. single dataset) report, this expression below worked fine. I wanted to get a distinct count of the vst_ext_id field when my educated field was like "VTE1*"
= CountDistinct(IIF(Fields!educated.Value like "VTE1*", Fields!vst_ext_id.Value, Nothing))
After adding a new dataset, this no longer works and I get the error " A scope is required for all aggregates used outside of a data region unless the report contains exactly one dataset". Having done some research online, I found that I
needed to specify my dataset explicitly and I thought this new expression might work, but still no success...
= CountDistinct(IIF(Fields!educated.Value,"DataSet1" like "VTE12*", Fields!vst_ext_id.Value,"DataSet1", Nothing))
Am I missing something? Based on online responses, this explicit dataset naming convention seems to help most people, but it isn't working for me.
Thanks in advance!
Brian

I found the answer. Apparently, my expression syntax was off. This expression does the trick...
= CountDistinct(IIF(Fields!educated.Value like "VTE12*", Fields!vst_ext_id.Value,Nothing),"DataSet1")
I just happened upon this particular syntax searching online. I was trying to specify the dataset name after each .value, but I never got that to work. This is the only time I have found this particular syntax online.
