Envy 15t (I7-4710HQ + Intel HD Graphics 4600) SSD Compatibility?

Hi All,
I'm looking at purchasing the Envy 15t  i7-4710HQ Quad Core Processor + Intel® HD Graphics 4600.
When I try to select the 256GB SSD for the hard-drive, I get an error telling me that the Graphics chipset is not compatible with SSD and vice versa. Either I need to select a regular hard drive or change the graphics chipset which unfortunately would require me to change to a dual core 4510U processor which I'd prefer not to do.
http://www.shopping.hp.com/en_US/home-office/-/products/Laptops/HP-ENVY/G0T95AV?HP-ENVY-15t
I'm not too phased about buying the SSD from HP directly, I'm happy to add one in after the fact. 
So, does anyone know if there is a definite incompatibility between the CPU / GPU and an SSD?
Additionally, is the 15t able to carry both an SSD and a regular hard drive?
I've seen the 15t-j000 being offered with both by default - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EWHJWLU/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2TC87EJKQMY9O
Assuming the 15t above is able to run an SSD, does this mean I can buy the 15t above with a regular hard drive and add an SSD for my primary drive after I get it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
The Envy 15t with Intel HD graphics card probably doesn't have a mSATA slot. That means if the 256GB SSD is a mSATA one you can't have it in your laptop. I think it's the setup for the laptop from amazon. There is a 240GB SSD plus a 1TB HDD which is most likely a 240GB mSATA SSD and a 2.5" 1TB hard drive because the laptop has nVidia vga and also it's a 15.6" model with only one hard drive bay. Laptops with nVidia graphics chips definitely have a mSATA slot.
Yes, you can get the laptop with a hard drive and then upgrade it to a proper 2.5" solid drive.

  • Lenovo G510, the Intel HD Graphics 4600 and Radeon 8750M, will not work!

    Good evening,
    I have a Lenovo G510, 59401564, i7 with Intel HD Graphics 4600 and Radeon 8750M graphics card.
    I have problems with graphics cards to get it to work permanently!
    The installation of the graphics card driver works fine but after about 30 minutes an hour, crashes the laptop and a bright blue screen is shown "VIDEO_DXGKRNL_FATAL_ERROR".
    After a restart, the Graffikarten are disabled, a small window says that the driver must be reinstalled.
    I have the Windows 8.1 64-bit, drivers from the Lenovo website uses. To reinstall, I used Catalyst_13.12_WHQL_UnifL_R3.01.exe.
    I've been trying to determine two days why.
    I really need help, I think more users have the same problem.
    I am grateful for any help!

    hi angefragt,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    Did you just got the unit or You got it some time around?
       If you were able to use the comuter before you might need to push a system restore to a date when the crashes did not appear. Adn start a Windows Update.
     According to this, It may be a conflict, Driver or OS issue,

  • Intel HD Graphics 4600 damage

    Hello all,I bought a laptop G510- i7-4700 MQ @ 2.40 GHz. last years ( May-2014). I am sure that my Intel HD Grafics 4600 is damage because all the video´s outputs are off and  in devices manager-Intel HD Graphic 4600 appears error 37  " this device has a problem". I re-installled the driver but nothing happened. As the the card graphic is integrated to microprocessor ,  can i only replace the microprocessor? or should i replace all board ?, Which is my best way? Thanks,Jose.

    hi Jose,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    When you said the video output is off, do you mean you're getting artifacts / discoloration on the screen? 
    Also, the Intel HD Graphics 4600 shouldn't show an error code 37 even with an inbox (generic) driver. If applicable, you may want to consider reinstalling the OS first to isolate an issue on the OS level and run a diagnostic test on the CPU (e.g., using Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool)
    More info:
    How to Diagnose an Intel CPU with Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool
    If the iGPU is indeed defective then you will need to replace the CPU.

  • Envy 15t 3200 blue screen after graphics install

    Hi everyone,
    I'm an IT professional working on a client's HP Envy 15t-3200 notebook PC (Win 7 x64, Intel i7, AMD 7700 series)
    He said (he thinks) after installing a recent windows update, it started blue screening on him with a graphics error.
    He restored his PC to factory install, and it was working fine until he installed windows updates and the graphics drivers again, receiving the same blue screen graphics error.
    I picked up his laptop. I installed a slipstream of windows 7 that I created. Everything worked fine - as soon as I installed his graphics drivers.
    First, I had installed the AMD drivers (from AMD, not HP). I thought everything was working fine, until I checked the device manager and saw that the AMD graphics were being disabled, and the laptop was reverting to the generic graphics driver. I also tried the older driver offered on HPs support page.
    I uninstalled the AMD graphics, and installed the Intel graphics. As soon as they were installed, upon restarting I received the same original blue screen error and had to result in booting to safe mode and performing system restore.
    When I install the AMD graphics without installing Intel graphics, it reverts itself to Generic graphics. The AMD graphics adapter shows a Code 43 in the device manager, stating that the device has stopped working because it has reported problems.
    I played around with different versions of AMD graphics which did not resolve the issue, and I installed different versions of the Intel graphics, which still caused a blue screen.
    The PC is working ONLY with the generic graphics drivers, which doesn't work for what my client wants to be able to do (gaming).
    I found this - http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c04121863&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
    on the troubleshooting page for this notebook, and tried using this solution which also did not resolve the issue.
    I've checked temperatures of the laptop and nothing is anywhere near overheating.
    I don't know what else to try. My client said he will live with it and just not use it for gaming anymore, but that is not good enough for me - I've offered to continue finding a resolution for him free of charge.
    Any help would be very appreciated, this is extremely annoying
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Reformatting the hard disk and installing the OS again may or may not help.
    I would consider rolling back to a system restore checkpoint where the issue all began, testing it and if it works turn off Windows updates on the notebook.
    Unfortunately, this notebook model requires replacing the system board. I wish I had better news for you on this, but I do not. 
    You can see that in the Maintenence & Service guide.
    The larger notebooks have the graphics adapter module as a seperately replaceable unit.

  • 3d picture control fail with Intel HD Graphics 4600

    I bought a laptop with Intel core i7 with Intel HD 4600 graphics. I'm testing a vi containing a 3D picture control. However when I run the vi, the 3d object that contains the 3d picture control displays a conflict, since the moving object, and this leaves no "clean" screen 3d object made. Any tips?, Thanks.
    Pdta: I'm using LV2012 and attached a picture of what that looks

    I too am having similar issues with 3d picture control paired with Intel HD Graphics 4000. Has this issue been resolved and what was the fix?
    Additional information, my lap top also has a NVIDIA Quadro K3000M card. This display adapter is used when only external monitors are used and not the laptop display. In this configuration my 3d picture control works fine. When I switch to the lap top display the Intel HD Graphics 4000 is used and that is when I see the 3d graphics issue.
    I have tried to turn off hardware acceleration and not given any acceleration option as suggested in the previous post. 
    I have the latest device driver for the Intel HD Graphics 4000.
    I am using LabView 2012
    Thanks for the help.

    Hello @Ketan_22,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More. 
    I understand that the graphics on your notebook computer operate in a blurred manner when it comes to command prompts and system windows, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
    First things first, I recommend returning your system back to a restore point before windows and command prompts became fuzzy. This can be done by following this document on Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8). 
    If these windows still appear blurred, the drivers may need to be re-installed. To ensure all of your system's drivers are functioning correctly, you can install the original software and hardware drivers for your computer. To do this, please follow this resource on Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 8). Once the drivers are installed, please update them by Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 8).
    Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

  • Intel HD Graphics 4600 Driver

    I hesitated to purchase an HP product, but after checking into my choices, I relented.  Overall, things have been fine, but I've got a nagging issue for which I've re-installed the software (Minecraft) and I still have an ongoing flickering issue.  
    I have the latest video  video driver for the 4600 built in graphics, dated 2013-12-20 , Version10.18.10.3262 Rev. A,
    There has been no video card driver update since 12/2013 and mainstream video card drivers are updated once a month or every few months.  
    When researching in the Minecraft support, they point to a known issue in Intel 4000 class onboard drivers and to upgrade to the latest driver.  Intel's driver is from 10/24/14 and is version 15.33.30.3958.  While the version numbers may not coincide, the posters noted that a driver update fixed it.
    How do we get to the bottom of this issue?  I can understand the desire to look at software settings, but unless I hit a non-compatible setting, I should be able to set it where I want it.   Thank you.

    4600 built in graphics are typically a part of the Intel 4th generation Core processors.  HERE is a page linking typical downloads for that.  Please bear in mind that there is a delicate balance in how those are implemented in OEM machines and that may be the reason HP does not show any updates for the driver.  You are at your own risk in messy with that balance, IMHO.  You can improve gaming experiences by installing a discrete graphics card, however.

  • Updating Intel HD Graphics 4600

    Dear HP rep,
    I've got a new HP Envy 17t-j100. I keep getting erros from multiple programs telling me my intel graphics driver is outdated. I've tried all of the HP driver updaters, as well as installing the driver from the intel website itsel to no avail. My coworker has a computer with identical specs, yet produces significantly better quality in both picture and framerate. This makes me believe it is this graphics driver. I know you will need more information than this, but I thought it might be a generic fix seeing as this is an out of the box problem. Thanks a lot for your time!

    As you can see it is with "Intel HD 4600 Graphic"
    I use latest intel driver with mesa.

    That listing shows two possible devices: Xeon E3-1200 v3 Integrated Graphics Controller *or* 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller.

    So the listing is correct, you're just reading it wrong. Also, it's just text from a database that maps pci-ids to a human readable description. This text has no influence on how devices actually work.

  • NVIDIA Quadro K1100M / Intel HD Graphics 4600

    I am currently on Technical Preview build 9926 and the driver for the K1100M is not functioning properly. I have tried to update it though still am running into issues with it being recognized. 
    EDIT: Just wanted to update this - I have now gotten the K1100M to be functioning, however utilizing dual monitors is not possible as it's now not recognizing the internal Intel GPU. Whether I plug in via the USB to HDMI adapter or utilize VGA it will fail
    to recognize the second monitor.

    I could solve it myself by downloading the latest Intel Driver from the HP Support web page.
