HP Beats Special Edition 15-p030nr Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR) screen brightness issue

I'm haing a screen brightness issue on my HP Beats Special Edition 15-p030nr Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR). I upgraded from 8.1 and the F2/F3 keys to dim or brighten screen do not function. Any suggestions besides reverting back to 8.1.? Not sure if I had the screen dimmed all the way or brightened all the way when it was upgrading, or if it even mattered.

Brand new HP Beats Special Edition 15-p030nr Notebook PC , Audio not working correctly

Just bought this computer for me 9/30/14. Volume is at 100% and while there is some sound, you can barely hear it. I have checked drivers, device manager etc and nothing seems to change it. I need to know if this is a defect in the system or if there is something else I can do. I hate to think we paid all this money for the computer, one reason being the Beats audio, and have it not work. I will return it if I cannot get it working.

Adding second monitor to HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010xt All-in-One with HDMI Cable

Trying to add a second monitor to all-in-one using HDMI cable. All-in-one is HP Beats Special 23-n010xt, second monitor is Samsung SyncMaster S24B300, Op Sys is Windows 8.1. Both are connected with HDMI cable, but Windows is not detecting second monitor. Have also tried a new cable, no success. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Here are the specs for your HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010xt All-in-One CTO Desktop Computer. Based on the specs, this model doesn't have a video output of any kind. The HDMI port on the side is strictly an INPUT.
The HDMI input allows you to use your computer screen with a game console or video player. To connect your computer to an external display, you will need to purchase a USB-to-video adapter such as the EVGA UV Plus+ UV39 or many other adapters on the market.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010 Use a Standard Keyboard Driver

I love everything about the HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010 desktop Except for the keyboard. I use various programs that use the F1-F12 fiunction keys. Trying to type Fn-Alt-F4 is no easy feat. I really don't need all the other special keys on this keyboard.
How can I replace this system's keyboard drives with a standard Windows keyboard driver. This system is running Windows 8.1 x64.

Hello @JohnG0814,
I understand that you are trying to use the standard keyboard on your HP Beats Special Edition 23-n010 All-in-One Desktop PC. NowI have gone through the User Guide for your computer and found nothing on disabling the HP Keyboard that you have by default.
I did however find something that may do the trick. In your BIOS which you can get to by restarting and tapping the F10 key you will see under 'Security' a sub-section named 'Secure Boot Configuration' that has a setting for Secure boot > Key Management > Key Ownership. If you go there you can change it to 'Custom keys', which I believe will resolve your keyboard issue. I am posting an image to help below.
I hope this helps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

This could be very time consuming if there are certian criterias aren't meet. Do you have something like LoJack tracker installed and have you registered your serial with HP so if the laptop every come to a shop for repair the shop will contact hp for support and find it is a stolen laptop and report it to the authority to have it recovered. Otherwise find and recoving a lapto will be hard to do if they sell it off in pieces or keep it and do nothing with it or format it clean and install their own programs thus rendering gone.

»HP 15-g019wm Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR) Laptop types groups of random letters

»HP 15-g019wm Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR) How do i get my laptop keyboard to work correctly so that it is not typing groups of random letters every time i type a letter. It says that it is working correctly. It works fine with a wireless mouse and keyboard If I attach my wireless mouse and keyboard I am able to type without it happening. I need to make this work correctly and when the device is checked it says that it is working correctly. I have tried using canned air to see if something is stuck inside under the keyboard.

I have read your post on how your keyboard is producing random groups of letters every time you type, and I would be happy to help in this endeavor!
Since you have successfully tested a secondary keyboard, I recommend following this document on Notebook Keyboard Troubleshooting (Windows 8). This resource should help you synchronize the keyboard correctly with the rest of the computer.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

This came WITHOUT BLUETOOTH.
Can I upgrade it to include a Bluetooth chip / card, so that I do not require a "Dongle".
If so, what is the part No of the chip / card that I need.
cheers,

Hi:
Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/manualCategory?cc=uk&lc=en&product=6732696
You would need to remove the wireless card in there now and replace it with one of the combination wireless/bluetooth cards listed in chapter 3 of the service manual.

Hi
You can't change the processor from AMD to Intel, the system board sockets dont go with each other,
You may have to change the whole board itself, moreover the processor would most probably integrated with the board.
But I think AMD processor in that laptop is quite good & it's getting good reviews

Hp 15-p058na (beats special edition) hard drive replacement

Hi I want to upgrade the factory hard drive with an SSD. I'm looking for the instructions to do this - can somebody point me in the right direction ? thanksB

if you put the original hard disk in can you boot to the BIOS?
Had you considered that a Hybrid disk may just not be compatible with the notebook's BIOS?
Your attempt to upgrade to an hybrid notebook drive is the first I have heard of in an HP notebook.

HP Slate 7 Beats Special Edition, no update.zip

So, I have been following this document http://support.hp.com/vn-en/document/c04342242 but i cant find the link to download the update.zip can anyone provide me with the link to download the recovery image?

The updates are ongoing, but I have run into several problems accessing HP restore files using either Android or ChromeBooks. Just tried to locate them now with a PC, and I'm getting an error. I'll report it, and hopefully it will return soon. WyreNut UPDATE: After reporting the issue to my internal HP contacts, I have been informed they are aware of the missing restore files and are "working on it". No ETA as of yet.

My HP 15-f039wm Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR) laptop runs really slow when the charger is plugged in.

I've noticed this problem a lot lately, As soon as my laptop charger gets connected the speed of my laptop drops dramatically, the solution I have found for it is waiting till the battery is full charged then I take the charger out and restart the laptop. Please help me, I've tried almost everything.

I grasp that when you have the AC adapter connected the performance of your notebook slows.
Here is a link to HP Notebook PCs - Managing Power Options (Windows 8) .
To rule out the adapter as an issue here is a link to HP Notebook PCs - Using and Testing the AC Power Adapter.
Good Luck!
