Remove the battery pack and install it once again. Test the laptop again. 
Remove the battery pack -> push the battery off button -> install the battery pack once again.

    Welcome to the HP Forums  MillaMagia,
    I see by your post that the USB isn't being recognized.
    I can help you with this issue.
    Are you using the same USB cable? (known good USB cable)
    You want to use the normal USB slot 2.0 cable and not the latest USB 3.0.
    USB 3.0 are supposed to be backwards compatible.
    Try another USB port on the Laptop, some of the USB ports are more powered then others.
    I have provided a document to see if the printer is partially recognized in the device manager, which is causing the printer not to be recognized again. (the uninstall from the CD should have removed the entry and the printer from the registry)
    Leave the printer turned on and the USB cable connected directly to the computer and the printer's power cord directly into a wall outlet.
    How do I get into Windows Device Manager?
    Here is a document for Identifying problems in Windows Device Manager.
    Check to see if there are any hardware driver conflicts, you might see a ! mark or a red x beside a device with a conflict or unknown device, look under universal serial bus controllers, look for USB printing support or mass storage device, delete the entry by right clicking and select uninstall, OK.
    Let me know how it was listed. (screen shots welcome)
    If this is a Laptop then check the power management settings.
    Access the device manager. Windows 8-How do I access the Device Manager.
    Select universal serial bus controllers from the list, for each USB root hub, right click and left click on properties, for power management remove the check mark for "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". It allows the computer to limit or turn off power for this device.
    Disconnect the USB, run the full uninstall and reinstall the printer software again.
    If you need further assistance, let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • Wireless button (f12) not working after windows 8 pro upgrade

    Hi: I have seen several posts from forum members with the Broadcom wireless adapters with the same issue as you are having. I don't know if anyone was able to resolve the issue. I had suggested trying the Windows 7 broadcom driver and see if that works. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-107849-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4063&product=5255857&sw_lang= If you decide to take this suggestion for action, and the driver doesn't install automatically, try manually installing it by going to the device manager, under network adapters, click on the Broadcom wireless adapter. Click on the driver tab. Click on update driver. Select the Browse my computer for software method and browse to the installation folder that was created when you ran the file. That file is located in C:\SWSetup\sp57965. Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and hopefully the driver will install. That is the only idea I can come up with. I am very surprised by this as Broadcom usually has good drivers that work. Paul

    I am having the same problem. Bought a dv6-7138us with Windows 7. Upgraded to Windows 8 via promo offer. F12 (Wifi toggle) key worked fine. Then updated new BIOS version "F.13". Now I cannot toggle the F12 key. The Wifi is permanently turned on (which is better than having it stuck in off), but I would like my toggle ability back.  Sometimes I go to the coffee shop to type something and I don't want to run down the battery constantly searching for a Wifi signal when I don't need the net. Have you guys found a solution yet? I tried putting the PC to sleep then waking it, but the Wifi key is still stuck in the on position. Thanks.

  • Pluglink ethernet device not recognized after windows 8.1 upgrade

    HP Pavilion 500-164 Desktop PCModel:H6U14AA#ABA
    After upgrading to Windows  8.1  I could not get a ethernet connection using the
    Qualcomm Atheros AR8161 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.30) with a Pluglink PL9650-ETH ethernet device.
    The Pluglink device was supplied by ATT uverse and has worked with no problem whit this computer and Windows7-8.
    I can connect using the wi-fi connection.
    The "hardwire" ethernet connection says a cable is unplugged. Any ideas?

    Hello @macenv,
    Unfortunately, there are no drivers for your Atheros Network Controller on a system running Windows 8.1. I would recommend you try Atheros to see if they have anything that will work for you, but as it stands the HP Pavilion 500-164 Desktop PC Drivers does not have any Ethernet drivers listed for your computer. You can try going to Atheros and see if they have any Windows 8.1 drivers for you Ethernet.
    I hope this helps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Scan to pdf C7280 not available after windows 8.1 upgrade

    After upgrading to 8.1, my program from HP no longer worked.  Now I cannot scan to PDF on my HP C7280.  my only option now is to scan to JPG or some other useless file type for documents.  I have loaded and reloaded and reloaded the updated driver and complete solution package but it will not finish installing to show me the same HP software I had before, I have to resort to the windows version supplied with Windows 8.1.  PLEASE help!!!!

    Hello gard1104,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you no longer have an option to "Scan to PDF" using the Photosmart C7280. I will do my best to assist you! I realize you have uninstalled/reinstalled the software already. How is this printer connected? Wireless or USB? Let's try a couple of steps:
    Please perform a "Level Three Uninstall" on your computer: (If you have this printer connected by a USB cable, then remove this cord from computer.
    a) On the keyboard, hit the Windows key and "R" together. In the Run box type in %temp% and hit enter.
    b) Locate the correct folder starting with "7z" (the correct folder contains "Util" and "CCC" folders).
    c) Open folder "Util".
    d) Open folder "CCC".
    e) Please run the L3uninstall.bat.
    f) When the uninstall has completed, restart the computer.
    Also, make sure Adobe Reader is installed on your computer. Please follow this HP document on The PDF File Type Is Not an Option When Scanning from HP Solution Center in Windows. Only perform "Solution Two" from this document.
    Next, please perform a clean boot on your computer. I will provide a Microsoft document here to help you. Restart the computer once this step is completed. Now, you want to install the full feature software from the HP website here. Choose your correct operating system; Either 32 bit or 64 bit.
    Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you.

  • Windows 8.0 Photo Feature - Collage not Working after Windows 8.1 Upgrade

    Purchased a HP ENVY 23-d160qd TouchSmart All-in-One CTO Desktop PC  with Windows 8.0 Professional factory installed.  Loved the feature that Windows Photo had that would randomly display an ever changing full screen collage of all the jpeg photos save on the computer.  Not sure how this all happened- how configured.
    When I finally updated to Windows 8.1 Professional a few months ago, this feature was not working or available.
    What am I missing?  Really miss this feature a changing collage of 15 years of my history.

    Ranne,
    Welcome to the HP Forum.
    I think you can recover the setup.
    One method to try:
    Windows key (opens your Start Screen) > type anywhere Background >
    Select Change Desktop Background
    There you can select:
    First, Navigate to the the folder from which you want to pull the photos you want to see
    Next, place a check mark next to each photo -- or just select "all" to select the group
    Select the duration (time) for each photo to remain on the screen
    Click the Kudos Thumbs-Up!
    It is a nice way to say “Thank You" for the help.
    Although I strive to reflect HP's best practices, I do not work for HP.

    Of course it isn't — you've just drained it. Plug your AC adapter in and charge it up again.

  • Fingerprint Reader not working after windows password reset

    Hi There
    I was using windows login (single admin user) and fingerprint reader to login to my Thinkpad T510. Yesterday night I changed windows password and I didn't update finger print. Unfortunately I am not able to login when I tried to login using windows login today, I forgot the password and when I tried finger print reader it is just throwing error.
    Why finger print is not working after windows password reset? What should I do to login?
    Help would be appreciated!!

    I just called the tech support just now? I just asked the 'why the finger print reader not recognizing the finger print after changing windows password?', and he gave the following answers
    1. You should change fingerprint while changing windows password.  I don't understand the reason behind it, btw is this true?
    2. We can't do anything for this issue.

  • Beats Audio Control Panel software not working after Windows 10 upgrade.

    Beats Audio Control Panel software not working after Windows 10 upgrade.  the Beats sound enhancement is useless in WIndows 10. When opening the Windows 10 sound properties  I'm getting this box message: Auido enhancement problem Windows has detected the audio enhancement for the following device are causing problems: Speakers / Headphones (IDT High Definition Audio Codec) Woud you like to disable driver enhancement for this device?  IDT High Definition Audio CodecBeats Audio Control Panel version6.10.6491.02013.11.2009:43:18 Please provide some kind of fix for this?

    Well, it has been a long road on the Win 10 upgrade. At first I got the same error message as above, but after deleting the Dolby Advanced Audio v2 in Win 10 using Control Panel Programs and Features and rebooting, I got into the continual BSOD upon reboot. Here are the steps I took to at least get stable on Windows 10. First, I rolled back to Windows 8.1 using the advanced feature in the BSOD recovery options. Once back in Win 8.1, I deleted the Dolby Advanced Audio v2 using Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel. Then I downloaded the Win 10 update and re-installed it. Once that completed, I updated the Intel Graphics driver under the display adapters (on my G780 it is an Intel HD Graphics 4000, and the driver can be found at  https://downloadcenter.intel.com/). Currently I am running version 10.18.10.4252 for my machine. Then, under the Device Manager, I updated the Conexant SmartAudio HD driver under the Sound, video, and game controllers. That driver is currently at 8.66.4.50 and was automatically downloaded from the web when I requested to update driver.  I also changed several others settings such as Notify to schedule restart after updates are installed instead of automatic (under Settings --> Update & Security --> Advanced Options) and Do you want Windows to download driver software and realistic icons for your devices? --> No, let me choose what to do, never install driver software from Windows Update.  After that, I shut down the machine, waited a moment and booted back up. I have no idea why this helped or if it is overkill, but I am stable and running without a fear of rebooting now. Hope this helps if someone else is having this same issue.
