Hp Dv6-2190us compatibility with SSD

Hi
I have hp pavilion dv6 2190us and i want to install SSD instead of my HDD ... I looked it up and found this one http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=52DB2A20A5CA7304 that says it's compatible with this model.
Can you confirm that before I buy it.
Thanks

Thanks for replying, I think i will remove the DvD driver and install a caddy like this guy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0P8eCA7u5Ec
and for the system i will install ubuntu 13.10

[pavillon dv6 1200sl] Upgrade with SSD 256GB

Hi all,
i have this notebook pavillon dv6 1200sl [ bit.ly/1b4DvNz ] from many year, now is the time to make an upgrade!
I'd like to change the HDD with a new SSD drive.. what kind of disc can I buy?
Any suggestion will be really apprecieted

I would not recommend an SSD you could not use. And the driver Manual shows step by step how to install a new hard drive. If the computer is running fine then, in Windows, use the HP Recovery Manager to burn restore DVDs and use them to reinstall software on the SSD when you get it. Go ahead and make the recovery DVD(s) and order the SSD and let us know when you are ready to proceed. If you have a storage disk I can also suggest making a Windows Easy Transfer Archive in order to transfer files and settings after you get Windows reinstalled on the SSD. It is also possible to do an exact disk clone to make the SSD work just like the existing drive, but that will take extra software and hardware.

Hi everyone

I have tried to research so much that I am more confused as to it compatibility I would just like a simple change out I am not a tech guru but having read so many different comments online about its works fine,it doesn't work ,os x firmware problems,trim problems,this that and the other etc.etc. is there anyone that has a 2010 model like mine that can tell me if the Samsung will work without having to go crazy trying to make it work. Because I have read that it is a great SSD but is it great for my MacBook model and year without having to hassle tweaks,changes,or problems because it not really the right drive for my MacBook .
Thank in Advance Randy.

Problems with build in wifi card in DV6-2190us.

Hi am trying to see if someone can help me out with a problem am having with my WIFI and also LAN on my laptop.
The problems am having is with connectivity and speed on WIFI and also problems connecting to a network with a Ethernet cable.
The problem am having with my wifi is when trying to connect to a network it takes me about 5 to 10 minutes just to try to connect to the network and once connected it will continue to say unidentified network and it will take 5 to 10 minutes to connect to the internet. Once connected to the network and the internet the connection will start fast and slow down to a crawl even do am 10 to 20 feet away from the wireless router and I have full bars. After the connection slows down I will get disconnected from the network and it will take me 10 to 20 minutes to get back on it.
Also when I try to connect to the network using a Ethernet cable I will get connected but if I unplug the cable and try to connected again I won't be able to connect to the network or the internet and I would have to restart the laptop with the cable plugged in.
All of the drivers on the laptop are up to date and also windows is up to date I really don't know what's going on.
I have formatted and installed Widows 7 done all of the updates I have also updated all of the drivers for the laptop but the problem continues to come up.
After talking to some of my IT friends we removed the build in wifi card from the inside of the laptop and changed it with a wifi card of a same model laptop to rule out problems with the card, but the problem continues to happen with the new card installed on the laptop. The card that came out of the laptop with the wifi problems was installed to the second laptop and the wifi problems came up but after installing the original wifi card the problems went away.
The thing that trying to figure out is why the card that came out of the working laptop won't work correctly on the laptop that's having problem with.
If anyone has any ideas on what maybe causing the problems please reply to this post I really need to have this problem fix before I start taking online classes.
Thank you for taking the time to read this post.

You are posting on an iMac forum. I'd recommend posting a MBA forum, however I think you best bet is taking it into your local Apple store or AASP to determine if the Wi-Fi adapter is damaged and if it is then checking to see what options you have.

Partition, defragment, unmovable files DV6-nv7214nr_Windows 8 with 32Gb SSD

I've hp envy dv6-7214nr laptop with Windows 8 (HDD 750 GB +32 GB SSD) purchased last month. When I tried to partition the C drive from the available 670 GB, it just shows 335 GB as shrinkable volume. Defragment didn't help and it says I can't allocate space from unmovble files. People say, in a hybrid HDD, I cant defragment beyond certain volume which is totally waste.
Can any one help. Thanks in advance.

Replacing Pavilion g7-2233cl HDD with SSD?

I've got a Pavilion g7-2233cl that the HDD recently failed on, was considering switching to an SSD. I'm trying to figure out if the SSD I'm looking at is compatable with my machine.

I cannot recommend a 60 gig drive. A basic install of Windows is going to run about 20 gigs and you are going to have hibernation files and restore files, apps (MS Office is 10 gigs plus) and such and before you know it the drive will be full. You actually can't fill it 100% so the real capacity is about 55 gigs tops. Yes, I am going to say get a 128 gig. Here is a 128 gig for not very much extra money:

Is eSATA compatable with SATA2 drives?

I have pavilion dv3000 laptop with eSATA port. Have run SATA external drives successfully.
I purchased larger SATA 2 drive (1.5TB) for backup data and computer will not recognise the drive using eSATA connection yet it does when I connect via USB. I want to use SATA connection because of speed advantage.
Is the eSATA port compatable with SATA2? If not, whats a fix?
Peter

Try partitioning your external 1.5 TB hard drive to something smaller than 1 TB (maybe two equal partitions). Your system may have a size limitation on the sata HD size.
I use an esata external enclosure containing a sata drive and I connect it to an internal sata port that I extended to the back of my PC. I can also use this device with the esata ports on my PC. It work both ways for me. Also works with USB since my enclosure has both port types. I see about 70 MBps using my 7200 rpm external HD. Almost twice that of USB2.

Couldnt this be the reason and what should I do to resolve this? Appreciate your kind help!
Thanks in advance,..

also having this issue with 6 month old dv6 3031 but my entire line beginning with a to enter key will not respond so i cannot do any tests or what not. i was advised to do bios setup by clicking F10 when notebook is booting up, arrow across to Diagnostic menu and perform PRIMARY HARD DISK SELF TEST. of course i was unable to do this as my enter key does not work but maybe you could give it a go and have more luck
cheers

Dv6-2190us

Hello, I currently have a dv6-2190us. I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade the video card. The i7 processor is a great processor, but I find I'm having too much trouble gaming with the graphics card. I'm playing an MMO game and it tends to have trouble even at medium graphics. The game came out not too long after I bought the computer.
Please let me know your suggestions. I have not modified the computer at all.

iEvermore,
Nothing is impossible but I seriously do not recommend it. The Service guide is here: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01860375.pdf. The video chipset is soldered/integrated with the systemboard and cannot be removed/replaced without advanced skills.

Windows 8 and itunes 11 compatibility with an ipod

I have itunes11 and Windows 8. I've called Apple and I've talked to Microsoft. This was months ago. I can download itunes and run it from my laptop but am unable to sync my ipod. I get an error and it automatically reboots my computer. I was told there were known compatibility with itunes and Windows 8. This was months ago.
I know how to downgrade itunes to XP or Win 7. This is not the issue. I can download to my laptop and place, it will not sync to my ipod device (which is a fear years old), but when I did talk to support I was told that it was supported. The ipod was not the issue.. It was the incompatibility between the programs.
I see recent updates in the support community in the past month about production resolution but this still has not resolved my issue. I don't believe purchasing a new ipod is going to resolve the issue either.
If anyone has successfully developed a workaround or recently downloaded itunes11 w/ Windows 8 and can sync to an apple ipod I would love to know how you did it.

Im not sure that will solve the issue I have with itunes. I have a lenovo laptop and I think it's just an issue with Apple who has to modify the program for users of Windows 8 so that itunes can be used and to find purchased music. I found the music I purchased through itunes but it's not the full tracks. It said it allows me to download it fully so I can hear the whole track, but needs some kind of capatibility? I have no idea what the problem is. If someone has the answer knowing my computer brand and having windows 8 compatibility issues, please let me know what you suggest.

Is adobe photoshop cs2 compatable with windows 8?

Is adobe photoshop CS2 compatable with windows 8?

I have removed and re-installed CS2 twice now and still get the same library application error.
DO NOT INSTALL WINDOWS 8 ONTO YOUR COMPUTER IF YOU WANT TO KEEP CS2!
Telling us to spend more money to upgrade our software to meet OS does not show trust to the users. CS2 should be able to work with new OS systems and if not users should be allowed to update their current program for free to be able to use it on the new OS.
Thank you,

CHKDSK fails on fresh install of Windows 7 x64 on mid-2009 MBP with SSD

There was an earlier post about this that has been archived prematurely that I will reproduce below. The main issue is a flaw in the Windows 7 x64 CHKDSK of the SSD drive in the mid-2009 MBP= 5,2. With fresh OSX installs, bootcamp 3.1, Windows 7 x64 all updates, the CHKDSK operation checks files at about 1 per second in stage 4 of 5, verifying file data.
Moderators: please leave this open until it is actually resolved.

Windows 7 x64, MacBook Pro, frequent CHKDSK after HDD firmware update
Posted: Nov 2, 2009 6:45 AM
Hello, I have been having filesystem problems on my Windows 7 partition since the HDD related firmware update (the latest Performance update) was released and installed onto this mid 2009 MacBook Pro.
The HDD is a 500 GB 7200 RPM model, but it never gave me any troubles under OS X before the "fix" and I know other users had intermittent problems with the HDD on their MacBook Pro's related to the HDD making noises and pausing.
The fix was released, I installed it and I started seeing my first problem in Windows 7 x64 a few days after... I cleanly shut the OS down, but when I booted it back it asked me to perform a coherency check to the Filesystem... I thought that the problem was related to the fact that I was using the RC1 build of Windows 7... although that problem never manifested itself in the weeks before the Performance Update (HDD firmware fix) was installed and Windows 7 x64 RC1 had been on there and used frequently.
I recently purchased Windows 7 retail a few days ago and after a bit of trouble-free operation I started having problems again... always shutting the PC down carefully and I was asked to run the CHKDSK utility at boot twice already.
What to do?

Hi there,
I have a different experience. I installed Windows 7 before the "performance update 1.0" came out. I actually experienced the chkdsk launch problem with Windows 7. I had done repartitioning and clean-install several times but cannot solve the problem. So I tried to install XP and Vista on my MBA (Mid 2009 with SSD) and found that these two OS doesn't introduce such problem.
To be honest, I'm not sure which caused such problem, Windows 7, a bootcamp driver, or EFI. But I'm sure that CHKDSK in Windows 7 has an obvious bug that needs to be patched (memory leak and maybe this problem as well). So now I'm using Windows Vista SP2. And I'm happy with Vista SP2 (seems to become faster and stable now).
Cheer,

I have a serious (and bizarre!) issue with my novation impulse (Although i've tried it with two other keyboards and i still have the same problem) and its compatibility with mainstage 3

i have a serious (and bizarre!) issue with my novation impulse (Although i've tried it with two other keyboards and i still have the same problem) and its compatibility with mainstage 3.
the problem is best explained on the following one - page thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3951518?start=0&tstart=0
(Clearly i'm not alone in this problem, although i think i figured out what's going wrong a little more than he did...read on!)
his solution, to put mainstage in jump mode, is very unsatisfactory to me, as it bounces all of a sudden to drastically different settings.
basically, my analysis is that my controller is NOT receiving MIDI date from mainstage. in other words, mainstage knows what my controller is doing, but my controller doens't know what mainstage is doing.
let's say i turn the knob all the way to the right ... 127...and the virtual fader goes to the right like it's supposed to.
now...next...let's say i change to a different patch, where that same VIRTUAL fader is not at the max clockwise position..maybe it's only at 1pm. now when i turn the physical knob to the RIGHT, the midi data is still at 127 on the controller! it didn't "reset" to sync up with the new level (say 80 or so) setting on the new patch. so i can't increase that new setting of 80 by continuing to turn the knob to the right. i have to turn it all the way to zero,...and then continue PAST zero until the controller thinks that IT is at 0...at that point the controller and mainstage are in agreement, and things work fine....so bascially, the keyboard thinks the level is at max...but mainstage thinks the level is at 1pm.
i am using Logic 9, and i have a macbook pro 2.9 Ghz I7 with 8 gigs of memory and OS X 10.8.4

Hi Josh,
