Hp 14 d006tx touchsmart laptop

                 August 30, 2014, I bought HP 14-D006TX touchsmart laptop  bundled with a licensed Win8.1 single language operating system and a HP 1515 all-in-one printer at one of your retailer store here in Dagupan City, Pangasinan namely Joycomp Computers.
                  In its first week with me, I noticed a tiny dot on the lower right part of the LCD touch screen which at first glance it look like a dust or dirt. I wiped it with a soft cloth but it seem that the tiny dot was stacked inside the LCD touchscreen.
                  Monday, September 8, 2014, I went to the retailer store where I bought the unit to show what I’ve discovered as well as to inform them that there are times wherein the mousepad of the laptop does not respond as you scroll over and also noted them that the task bar frequently appears while scrolling the mousepad like when your scrolling some documents in MS Word. The retailer store told me that they will forward it to their supplier for check up. Due to this experienced I ask the retailer store for a unit replacement, and they told me that they will try to ask their supplier about my request.
                  September 11, 2014, the retailer store texted me that my unit was ready for pick up. Their supplier reported that the tiny dot in front of the LCD screen was not covered in the warranty and the mousepad of the laptop is just so sensitive that when your finger is wet like “pasmado” sometimes it’s normal not to respond at once and the frequent appearance of the task bar when scrolling down the mousepad was also normal. Therefore, the supplier did not replace my unit.
                  A week after, I’m having a hard time in opening and shutting down my unit and there are times that there is no display but the power indicator lit up and when I press the capslock key the light indicator switches on, therefore there is a power but no display at all, so I pressed the power button again and my unit’s power turned off, I pressed again the power button to turn it on, there the unit turned on and had a display. And the start up sound sometimes makes a “grounded-like” sound. So I texted the retailer store about my problem. Again, they advised me to bring the unit to them and forward it to their supplier and had it tested. Again, I asked for a unit replacement; but then again their supplier reported that there is no problem about my unit. They just suggested reformatting the system and making sure that all windows updates be installed. The retailer store did what the supplier was advised them to do.
                  But still, when I used the unit, there are times that I still experience those problems I first encountered before the unit was reformatted. And got even worse because I also noticed that the unit heats up easily eventhough it was used for a short period of time. And it took me long enough to boot up my unit and unable to shut it down. So I used to press the power button in order to turn it off.
                  September 30, 2014, I reported these problems to the retailer store, and again they will have to forward my unit to their supplier. After 3 days, the retailer store told me that my unit was forwarded to BITSTOP (your official service center here in Dagupan City, Pangasinan).
                  Again, I demand for a unit replacement due to these uncomfortable experienced I had with the given unit. But they keep resisted my request because it depends upon the findings of BITSTOP.
                  October 7, 2014, the retailer store texted me that the unit was ready for pick up, because BITSTOP reported that there were no hardware problem and the overheating of the unit was just normal with HP laptops. They also commented to keep the windows update regularly because they concluded that these causes the booting problems that were encountered. So I texted the retailer store to burn in my unit and install some software I requested and they said “yes”.
                  October 10, 2014, I picked up my unit, but due to my son’s scheduled exams, I was not able to use my unit at once because I need to tutor my son on his coming 2nd qtr. Exam that will last for a week. In short, I only got the time to use my unit on October 17, 2014. But I used it only for a short period of time…then on October 19, 2014, I noticed something in the upper center of its LCD screen, because the opened window does not appear whole on the upper center. And when you turned it off you will notice that the LCD screen appears to have a curved on the upper center of the screen.
                  So again, October 20, 2014, I returned the unit to the retailer store and complaint what I have noticed. I started to get mad about it, because there seem to appear different problems with the unit. Again, they forwarded my unit to BITSTOP. I join them so that I can talk personally to the technician who will handle my unit. So while checking my unit, they also encountered booting problems, and I asked why is it that the said problem cannot be eliminated nor resolve and the technician just told me that it’s a windows 8 software bug. Then they asked me, what’s the new problem of my unit, I told them to check on the LCD screen. And after an hour or more they reported that the rubber of the LCD screen was misaligned. And they suggested replacing the panel of the unit.
                  So we went back to Joycomp Computers (the retailer store), and forwarded the report letter of BITSTOP. Again, I demanded for a unit replacement not only for the panel to be replaced but for the whole unit to be replaced. They just told me we will see. I’m not comfortable with their answer, so I’m letting you know about my case. I fear that if they just replaced the panel, what comes after it? Are there other problems that could arise in the future? I do not trust the unit’s performance already, that’s why I am demanding for a unit replacement.
                  Honestly, I am not happy, with these unpleasant experienced with your product; those time and effort bringing back and forth the unit to the retailer store plus my transportation fee…huh brought a lot of headache to me and made me feel very disappointed.
                  I am looking forward that you can help me and grant my request because I believed that your company will not let your customers feel unhappy and dissatisfied. Especially in my case that the unit was bought just recently but already encountered so many problems. I hope I will not regret choosing your brand over other brands. Please act on my case. Prove that customer’s satisfaction is still your main goal.
                  Thank you.

  • 5.1 Audio Support for Touchsmart Laptop

    Greetings! First post on this forum
    I have a Touchsmart TXN-1274NR laptop. It has RealTek audio drivers that support surround sound audio (5.1, etc.). However, the laptop's only audio jacks are three jacks in the front edge of the latop, two of which are labled with a headphone symbol, and the other with a microphone symbol. Is 5.1 audio or greater supported by my hardware? If so, where do I connect the output to?
    Thanks!
    joe

    Hi, Joe:
    Welcome to the HP Consumer Support Forum.
    I am not an audio expert but looking at the specs for your notebook at the link below and reading the users guide, it appears to have support for enhanced audio.
    The product specs state it has Altec Lansing speakers with SRS Premium Sound
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01801117&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en...
    I looked up what SRS Premium Sound is and it appears to describe 5.1 quality audio.
    http://hothardware.com/News/SRS-Introduces-Premium-Sound-Suite-for-PCs/
    Chapter 2, page 4 of the users guide indicates that the jack labeled 5 in the illustration is an S/PDIF jack and the description of the jack states:   Provides enhanced audio performance, including surround sound
    and other high-end audio output.

  • I have a HP Touchsmart Laptop. Can I uninstall Windows 7 and install windows 8.1 ?

    I want to uninstall windows 7 and install windows 8.1 on my hp touchsmart. Will the touch features work on teh new installation?

    Hi,
    Yes and no. Why ? because it will work with the right driver, won't work if can't find the right driver. How can we know you can get a right driver when we don't know your computer. HP has dozens if not hundreds of models/products called Touchsmart.

  • Where are the left and right action buttons on the touchpad on the HP ENVY 17t Quad TouchSmart

    My new HP ENVY 17t Quad TouchSmart laptop has a touchpad, but no left or right action buttons.  How do I simulate their action.  Apparently a single tap simulates a left click, but how do I get a right click?  How do I drag a cell in a spreadsheet (to copy it) using the touchpad?  I may have to end up using a mouse.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I believe that model features a ClickPad, which doesn't have distinct left/right-click buttons but does have left/right-click areas where the buttons would normally be. See Using and Configuring the ClickPad for more info.

  • My win 8.1 laptop does not do system restores, never has.

    Have had my HP 15 Touchsmart laptop for almost a year and it has never performed a system restore when requested. 
    After going through the motions, the message on the desktop says the action was not completed and to try it once again. 
    How much disk space should I assign it to use?  Meanwhile, it does not perform that much needed task.
    I do not really want to undertake doing a complete reinstallation, it has happened to me before with my previous computer-starts to work correctly then it stops.  With my present laptop, sys restore has never worked.
    Any suggestions or comments.

    Hi there @efkorman716 
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that you have never been able to get system restore to work on your notebook. I did some searching, and found a common cause of this is often some third party software, commonly antivirus software.
    This page has a troubleshooting section partway down.
    Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8)
    Also there is this nice page that covers many possible fixes, give it a try and let me know if it helped.
    Fix: System Restore not working in Windows 8 / 7 - thewindowsclub.com  
    As to how much space to allocate, it depends on the hard drive size and operating system but typically up to 5% of a drive is not a bad number. See the following:

  • Hp pavilion touchsmart will not turn on

    Hi, I have a hp pavilion touchsmart laptop. I used my computer the other day to save a file onto a flash drive and It was working fine. I haven't touched it since then yesterday morning I noticed it was off and wouldn't cut on so I figured it died and I plugged it up and let it sit on the couch to charger. When I went to pick it up and turn it on about an hour later it was very hot and wouldn't cut on. The light next to the charger port is orange when you first plug it in then turns white after a few mins. No other lights are on and nothing happens when I press the power button. I'm still under warranty but I would like to try and fix myself before I go through that long process. Please help thanks in advance.

    Hi @SKS_Paviliondv6 
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that your notebook is stuck in a type of error loop, asking for a startup repair. I am happy to assist.
    Have you ever backed up whatever data there is on this notebook, or is there anything of value on it? If there is nothing of value, you can try restoring the factory image, assuming it will function.
    Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 7)
    Troubleshooting HP System Recovery Problems (Windows 7)
    If on the other hand there is some data on there that you want to back up, then I would do that first. To assist with that you can use the service manual to help with removing the hard drive, and then you can use a compatible external drive bay, and connect that to another device to make a copy of the things you do not want to lose.
    HP Pavilion dv6 Entertainment PC - Maintenance and Service Guide
    Also you can refer to this page on various ways to back up that data.
    How to Recover Data from the Hard Drive of a Dead Laptop -wikihow.com
    If the recovery process fails as well, then it is likely a hardware issue of some sort. You can try looking at this page which offers some options for hardware testing, if you can access them.
    Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 7, Vista)
    In my opinion, if the notebook is as old as you say, and if it comes down to a hardware problem, it is probably not worth fixing; but that also depends on the type of hardware failure. If it is something comparatively minor, and easily replaceable, then it may be worth doing; but if it involves a board or processor, then it is probably not worth doing at this point.
    I hope this helps.

    But I think I just need the right driver to install tell me if you find a good one I tryed alot already.

  • Laptop and printer

    This may be a Windows 8 question but I have a question on our laptop and printer, which are both HP products. I just purchased a touchsmart laptop.  We have an HP officejet pro 8600 printer.  The software cannot be downloaded onto Windows 8.  The printer has the capability for wireless.  We currently have the printer directly connected to our obsolete desktop.  Can I set the printer to wireless without having to worry about installing the software, or do I need to somehow get updated software? 

    Hi NordicSki,
    I understand you are interested in installing wireless on your HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer. The HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows was created to help Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 users download and install the latest and most appropriate HP software solution for their HP Printer. Here is a link to download and install this software.

  • Black Borders when playing games

    Hey,
    so lately, I got a new HP Envy TouchSmart laptop. Everything is alright except: When I run games at a native ( 1920x1080p ) resolution, everything is fine. But when I lower down the resolution,  on my screen, black borders apear all around the sides. So this means, that it doesn't stretch. Altough, if I set the games mode to Borderless, it fixes the problem, but still it's anoying in some games.
    I tried many ways to fix this ( which I found from the internet ) : Trying to lower the resolution in desktop and setting Scale On Fullscreen; updating the Intel drivers, downloading apps...
    I really need help with this, as not all of the games have a Borderless mode ( eg. AC4 ). 
    System Specifications:
    Intel i7 4702MQ @2.2ghz boost up to 3.2ghz
    Intel HD Graphics 4600 ( Integrated ) - Driver 10.18.10.3960
    Nvidia 750M  ( Dedicated )
    8gb ram
    TouchSmart 
    Thanks for any information, I would really like to fix this

  • How to resolve some install problems for 7.02 on Windows 7 64 bit

    This is a short re-cap of some of the issues I came across when installing NSP 7.02 on Win 7 system. I'm posting it here rather than writing a blog - there are numerous excellent guides already out there, but the particular issues below meant I had to collect info from several other posts, search other forums, and also do a bit of research on my own. Therefore, I hope that this post can be useful for those who - like me - had to resort to searching the forums... sometimes in vain.
    Installing the 7.02 Sneak Preview on a 64-bit system is not that straightforward, but "doable". I've just spent the weekend successfully installing on two systems; an HP Touchsmart laptop (i3 processor) and my trusty Dell desktop (Core 2). Both machines have 4Gb RAM, barely sufficient, but the thing is up and running. At last.
    Compared to earlier Sneak Previews, or the 32-bit varieties, this is no walk in the park. Definitely not like the first 2004s, which ran as smoothly as a knife through butter (at least on XP).
    Here are my own tips, based on the issues I experienced:
    Phase 5: Failure to start MAXDB instance - installer reports no MAXDB software installed. Curiously, this happened on one of the machines, not the other. Even weirder, it happened on the machine that had previously had a MAXDB installation (which was wiped clear before installing).
    I got around this one by manually installing MAXDB. The steps were:
    Launch the 64-bit MAXDB installer - sdbinst.exe - from the 64-bit MAXDB directory (NOT the 32 bit, which won't run on your 64 bit system anyway). It's in one of the sub-directories - search for it. Use it to start a manual install of MAXDB, and select the "tutorial" database. This will install a sample (256Mb) database on your system. Now, re-start the miniSAP installer, and you should pass phase 5 without issues. (See info below on the STATISTIC file!)
    ABAP import issues: If the ABAP import step fails, with at least one of the 37 import jobs failing, this could help:
    Break off the installation. Go to the sapinst_dir\...\ADA\CENTRAL directory, and delete all .TSK files and their related .TXT counterparts. These are (to my knowledge) created during the ABAP import, based on the DB schema files that are used for the ABAP import. If you remove these (or at least the ones that caused the import to fail), it will re-apply them when you re-start the installation and select the option to use existing installation.
    Also remember to delete the "statistic" file in the same directory - it will generate an error if you do not get rid of it before re-starting the installation.
    Usually, this is enough to ensure the ABAP import works.
    Install license and developer key:
    The system calls itself "SAP-INTERNAL", not "DEMOSYSTEM". This is somewhat confusing, as the NSP license key you request from SAP will not load due to different installation names. The workaround is to DELETE all temporary (pre-installed) licenses. Mark them, right-click, then delete. Make sure there's NOTHING left in SLICENSE, then upload the file you got from the license request page (NSP, 2004s Service pack 9 or higher). This should work.
    Only now can you use the developer access key of BCUSER.
    Remember, every time you re-start the installation and select the "use old" option, you have to remove the mentioned "statistics" file from the ADA\CENTRAL directory, since it keeps track of what has been done so far.
    This version seem to suck resources like no other sneak preview has done before. I'm looking forward to installing it on a new, powerful machine - just have to get around to ordering it first...
