"Fixed mode" for hybrid GPU not present

Hello everyone!
I have a HP Pavilion dv6-6030, equipped with Intel Core i7 (Intel HD Graphics series 3000) and an AMD Radeon HD 6490M.
Even if I have the latest BIOS version, the F1.B, I cannot switch from Dynamic to Fixed mode. I can't say why.
When I purchased the notebook (in 2011) I had this option and I used the Fixed mode for the hybrid system of GPUs. Than happened that my notebook fell down, but everything was still ok. However, I didn't want to keep it with the chassis damaged, so I sent it to HP to change the chassis. When the notebook came back, I was no more able to change how the GPUs have to work: the option misses. From Catalyst Control Center I see that they are set in Dynamic mode. At first I didn't care about that, but now I'd like to restore this feature. I tried to reinstall both BIOS and drivers, but nothing's changed: in the BIOS there is not the option about hybrid graphics mode. Why?
Is there anybody can help me?
Thank you so much!
Davide

Hello @Davide_S ,
Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!
I understand the BIOS will no longer let you access "Fixed Mode". I have a suggestion that can help! Below is a table of all available BIOS versions to this computer:
Source: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/previousVersions?softwareitem=ob-95001-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=40...
Version Date Size
F.13 Current
05-2011
4.95M
F.06
03-2011
4.94M
F.05
02-2011
4.73M
I would install the oldest version to try and get the BIOS you once had. If that doesn't work, install the second-oldest one.
Please let me know if this helps. Thanks!

  • Parental Controls for Mail does not present all emails to approver

    Those of you who use Parental Controls to manage your children's use of email via Mail know that you can restrict emails they receive to ones sent by people on a whitelist, only. If someone not on the whitelist sends a message, it should be first sent to you for approval, after which it is let through to your child in Mail.
    That's the theory. Putting this into practice I sent messages from my various email accounts to my son's email address. None of those that weren't on the whitelist got through--that's good. However, I received permission requests for only two of those messages. The one sent from my work account simply disappeared--that's bad.
    Do any of you have a sense of how robust this part of Parental Controls is? I did file a bug report on this, by the way.

  • Java class specified for a rule not present in the archive path

    While checking an implementation of configurator, I found a CX rule that has a java class associated with it oracle.apps.cz.cx.xxx.AVCX
    But, when I clicked the 'Choose class' button to check where this class is located, I am unable to find the same in the list of available classes.
    I have also checked the jar file containing the custom java classes with no avail.
    But, the functionality works fine as expected. i.e., while clicking the UI button that invokes this CX rule, it works as it should.
    What could be the reason for this? Could the java class be hidden somewhere else other than the archive path specified for this model?
    Thanks in advance for any advise.

    Hi Biju,
    In this case, this class may be located on the server file system. To know the location of any class on server system, you can do following:
    Open http://host:url/OA_HTML/CZInfo.jsp
    Enter your classname with path in apprpriate input box and then find it. It would display the location of the class in filesystem from where its loaded.
    Thanks,

  • HP 15-d020ek Fixed Mode Graphics !

    Hello !
    I have a simple question. Does the "HP 15-d020ek" has the option in the Bios to choose between "Dynamic" & "Fixed" mode for switchable graphics ( I think it has Intel HD 4000 & Nvidia 820M )
    I really need to be sure about this before I buy the laptop, because I need it especially for gaming.
    Thanks.

    are the two updates ok to install on my model...or am i likely to mess something up...   ??
    (btw i dont know if this will solve my gaming problems anyway...)
    Definitely Not.
    The following quote is from the first line in the web page.
    "This document pertains to HP Envy 14-2000 series, HP Pavilion dv6-6100 series and HP Pavilion dv7-6100 Series Entertainment Notebook PCs."
    The document does have well written explanation of how and what drivers to install and the order in which to install the drivers. That eaplanation generally covers all recent  notebooks with switchable graphics.
    Go to your notebook's web support portal and look for the updates. There is one there that applies to switchable graphics for models with AMD M880G with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 AMD Radeon HD 6550M AMD Radeon HD 6370M hardware.  Only those apply to your notebook and must match the operating system and graphics hardware in your notebook. Read the graphics driver and BIOS fix/enhancement details carefully.
    Never install updates from other notebooks unless you are absolutely certain the hardware is identical.

  • My iphone 4 went into recovery mode for some reason and it is unable to be restored. any ideas how to fix this?

    my iphone went into recovery mode for some reason and is unable to be restored. it wont turn on and when plugged into a charger it shows a usb and itunes symbol. so i plugged it into my mac and connected to itunes then itunes said it has detected a phone in recovery mode and needs to be restored. so it goes through the restoration process for a couple minutes or so then stops and says itunes is unable to restore because an unknown error occurred (2001) or (2006) and other times i try it says its unable to restore because itunes cant detect the device... any ideas how to fix this?

    Errors 2000-2009 (from Apple support): If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.
    2001: Use up to date software. Make sure your device is in DFU Mode: http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034
    2006: Use a different USB cable. Possibly the one that came with your iPhone.

    Thanks for these suggestions: I have tried safe mode re-starts (both "verbose" and simple "shift" + power) to no avail.  I get the error message "disk0s2: media is not present".  Following this I inserted the installation disc and from there ran disc utility.  The "Verify Disk" indicated an error " invalid sibling link" which it could not repair.
    I also tried to completely re-format/erase the disk, but again got an error message "disk object invalid or unable to serialize".
    Any ideas of what could be causing this or the best solution?  I fear I am fast running out of options.

  • PSE 7 Editor not responding. Stuck in thinking mode for eternity...

    Hoping for some help with this issue. Pleeeezee
    I start in Organizer, choose an image to edit, click on the quick fix (shoot in Raw), do some simple changes, then if I need more fixes I click on Open Image. The Editor window pops open and then the thinking mode for eternity is what happens next. Sometimes the image does finally appear but it could take several minutes. Has become increasing worse lately where images do not appear at all.
    Has 3GB memory, maxed out the memory usage in the performance. Just uninstalled PSE then re-installed it and still have the same issue.
    Not sure what else I can try. If anyone has ideas or has dealt with this same issue before, please share.
    Thanks!!
    -Martin

    Please provide more specific info about your computer - processor (single or dual), OS (XP, Vista or 7), 32-bit, video card, etc.
    You realize RAW file will require a lot of power to process.  Using a memory-stick (ReadyBoost) may help.
    Personally, I gave up trying to process RAW in PSE - switched to Lightroom 2.  Only use PSE for editing work beyond scope of LR2 - like Panaramas, merged exposure, etc.

  • Outlook to iPhone sync failure – Sync suddenly stopped working for calendar events but continued for contacts and notes.   Finally Fixed!!!  SUPPORT TEAM – PLEASE SEE THIS – Complete explanation of cause and correction steps.

    The issue:  Outlook to iPhone sync failure – Sync suddenly stopped working for calendar events but continued for contacts and notes.   Finally Fixed!!! 
    SUPPORT TEAM – PLEASE SEE THIS – Complete explanation of cause and correction steps.
    The cause:  It is now clear what caused this problem.  For years I had several “all-day” events in my Outlook calendar (birthdays, anniversaries, etc.).  In May 2012 I decided to make some of them one hour  events so I could add alerts to remind me of the event.  I did this by dragging them in Outlook to the time I wanted and expanding them to the time slot desired and then adding the alarm.
    The symptom:  Syncing stopped working for the calendar but continued working for contacts and notes.  I didn’t realize sync was failing until months later when I missed two very important phone calls, so when I noticed it the cause was not obvious. 
    The failed attempts:  I’m head of a software firm and my calendar sync is a crucial to my business life so I took this on with a vengeance.  From a quick look at events in Outlook and the iPhone I could see that the problem started in May 2012.  Events before May were in both Outlook and the iPhone but events after May were only one or the other.  Unfortunately I had changed several other things at the same time relating to other events so again the cause was not obvious.  MANY calls with AppleCare proved them incompetent so my internal IT guys assisted trying many things.  We tried a huge number of calendar changes and several versions of iTunes, iPhone OS and Office as well as both iPhone 4 and 5, all without success.
    The fix:  After 18 months of frustration, MANY  hundreds of $ expense and MANY hours of wasted time I saw a blog that had a calendar sync  problem and it indicated all day events were related.  I changed the display of the Outlook calendar to the list view, added columns so I could see “all day” event check marks as well as times of events,  sorted on the “all day” event column to move them to the top, and for all events that were “all day” events AND had a start and end time, I removed recurrence and then added the annual recurrence back…
    After I fixed all events that had BOTH “all day” set and had a start/end time, I tried another sync.  It synced for the first time in 18 months! 
    Problem occurred May 2012 – fixed Nov 2013

    Hi, to remove dummy '_ModGrp' entries, rather than crashing the 'Suppr' key on your keyboard, you can use this basic VBA macro (launched for instance from Excel).
    It will recursively remove all '_ModGrp...' folders
    Sub RemoveFolders_Click()
        Dim oOutlook As Outlook.Application
        Set oOutlook = New Outlook.Application
        Set objNameSpace = oOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI")
        Call CleanFolders(objNameSpace.Folders)
    End Sub
    Sub CleanFolders(objFolders As Outlook.Folders)
        For i = objFolders.Count To 1 Step -1
            If Left(objFolders(i).Name, 7) = "_ModGrp" Then
                objFolders.Remove( i )
            Else
                If Not objFolders(i).Folders Is Nothing Then
                    Call CleanFolders(objFolders(i).Folders)
                End If
            End If
