Brand New Pavilion DV7 Shut down twice when first started, and keeps shutting down for no reason

The problem I have with my new HP Dv7 is it keeps shutting down. This can't be due to over heating as when I first switched it on and went through the setup process it restarted twice. Took me three attempts to get just past the registration section. 
Reading on the forum pages it looks like quite a few people have had the same problem. Is there a software fix/update to solve this problem? or do I have a faulty laptop?
Thanks
Marc

Please identify your notebook/pc with more than the series number. Look at the base/rear/side of the notebook/pc at the barcoded sticker. Post items numbered 1 and 2 on the following image.
Post the installed operating system version ( and whether it is 32 or 64-bit)

  • Brand new 5s- sometimes phone numbers display when receiving calls and texts instead of contact name.

    Brand new 5s- sometimes phone numbers display when receiving calls and texts instead of contact name. Hard to know who is calling/texting! A few times I've tapped on the text message icon and I can actually watch as the conversations turn from showing just numbers to the contact names. Same thing when looking at call history and voice mail- sometimes it shows numbers and then I'll go back and the contacts will be back. So frustrating!

    -I have tried using *228 to update.
    You don't dial *228 to update the Preferred Roaming List on 4G phones; I"m surprised the call went through.  The PRL updates are handled by the SIM card. 
    Try this and see if it helps:  turn off the phone, remove the SIM card, and wait a few minutes.  Then re-insert the SIM card, turn the phone back on, and give the phone a few minutes to re-establish a network connection.

  • Weak bass on brand new Pavilion dv7-7012nr

    This new machine arrived today and I'm finding it to be exemplary is just about every way except for the sound. I realized it's a laptop and acoustic "space" is limited but I feel like I may have something set incorrectly due to the nearly complete lack of bass. Either that or perhaps there is some problem with the hardware itself. I didn't expect it to be loud but I did expect it to be balanced. I know the sound will be fine with headphones or through my high-end USB converters and studio monitors but I must say the direct sound in sorely lacking. I have hunted around for settings and adjusted the equalizers but it's still pretty wimpy. Is there something else I need to do?
    BTW, I have also experiences the "volume dips" mentioned in another thread. I hope that is also something that can be cured somehow.
    Thanks for any thoughts!

    I did finally find the Beats Audio controls and have done some bass boosting there too. Still seems weak though.

  • I messed up badly by trying to restore my brand new macbook pro by doing restart then command R and choose disc utility repair now when I start ,all I get is the white screen with a folder and a question mark,What can I do???help please

    Can you still boot to the Recovery partition using Command and R whilst booting? Or did you wipe the Recovery partition as well?
    If your Recovery partition is still intact, you can simply boot to it and reinstall the OS via the Internet. If you wiped the Recovery partition, you can hold down Command, option and R keys whilst booting and boot into true Internet Recovery mode. You'll be able to reformat the hard drive, erasing all partitions (format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a dingle GUID partition) and then reinstall the OS that shipped with your machine.
    Note that you should use a physical Ethernet connection when restoring over the Internet - it's three times slower if you use wifi.
    Try your Recovery partition first and if that doesn't work, use Internet Recovery.

    Yes 10.8.2 is the latest version of Mountain Lion. 10.7 was Lion and 10.6 was Snow Leopard.

    Try a reboot press & hold power button & menu until Apple Logo comes on then wait
    you will not lose any data.
    That may fix your problem.

  • Using the touch pad on my new pavilion dv7-6b50ea

    hi, can anyone tell me how the touch pad switches on and off,and if it is possible to scoll using the touch pad on my new pavilion dv7-6b50ea

    Did you try '''Ctrl'''+'''0''' (zero) to reset the zoom.
    You did that with by holding the control key and scrolling on the right edit of the pad, which is equivalent to Ctrl+scrollwheel on the mouse.
    Ctrl+0 to restore zoom to normal (Ctrl+- zooms out, Ctrl++ zooms in )
    The problem with the Zoom toolbar buttons (+ and -) builtin to Firefox 4 is that there is no way to zoom directly to normal (100%) nor even tell what zoom level you are at.
    For more control over zooming things see these [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox.htm#zoom zoom links]
    To set the zoom permanently on a per site basis, try the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/ NoSquint] extension, which optionally remembers on a per site basis.

    Thank you very much for your help. Now, I was able to install the update (Adobe Photoshop 12.0.4 update for Adobe Photoshop CS5, Mac). But I couldn’t mark the answer as correct. I didn’t find the „correct“ button.

    OK, here's the Windows version of the update:
    Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows : Adobe Photoshop 12.0.4 update for Adobe Photoshop CS5
    and for Mac:
    Adobe - Photoshop : For Macintosh : Adobe Photoshop 12.0.4 update for Adobe Photoshop CS5
    Of course, ignore the idiotic recommendation that appears there to try to use Help > Updates.  We already know that doesn't work.

    A deal is only a good deal if you get the best value out of the deal.
    If you need a MacBook more than an iPad or an iPad more than a MacBook, then it's a good deal.
    Comes down to what value the use of the product is to you.

  • Brand new 15" MacBook Pro Retina - unplugged from Thunderbolt Display and Keyboards today find keyboard alpha-numerics not working; except the function keys, delete key, tab key, command/ctrl/shift/alt/fn and arrow keys; and 7/8/9/u/o/j/l nudge cursor

    Brand new 15" MacBook Pro Retina - unplugged from Thunderbolt Display and Keyboards today find keyboard alpha-numerics not working; except the function keys, delete key, tab key, command/ctrl/shift/alt/fn and arrow keys; and 7/8/9/u/o/j/l produce cursor nudges.

    It's a new machine - and the Thunderbolt Display is meant to work with it. You need to just make an appointment at your local Apple Store and have them fix whatever is wrong.
    If you like, you could always try a SMC reset and a PRAM/NVRAM reset to see if either of those will get your keyboard back in working order...
