Hp dv6 laptop.

i have a hp dv6 laptop. it is getting very hot, please let me know what shall i do. thanks

What exact model? That will tell us how old it may be. After a couple years the big desktop replacement laptops often require an internal cleaning, which involves opening the case and removing the processor fan, apply new cooling compound. You can try blowing out any dust with compressed air (hold the fan from spinning wildly with a paperclip) but that is a halfway fix.

    why can't i download itunes to my hp pavilion dv6 laptop?

    Impossible to say with no information on which to base a diagnosis. "can't download" by itself doesn't tell us anything useful. What OS is your laptop running, and where exactly are things going wrong, including error messages if any?

  • Problem to connect iPhone 4s (6.0) to a HP Pavilion DV6 laptop via Bluetooth

    I'm having problem to connect iPhone 4s (6.0) to a HP Pavilion DV6 laptop via Bluetooth, the plan is to share the Internet (3G) from the iPhone to the laptop.
    The driver for serial port is not installing and I don’t have the option to connect to Internet via the iPhone. The problem is isolated to the iPhone as my Samsung mobile installs and connects ok, and is available in the control panel. During install I receive an error that the drivers (I guess for the COM port) cannot be found by WIN7. Drivers and options for headset, sound, SMS etc has installed correctly and is selectable in the control panel for Bluetooth.
    For troubleshooting I have reinstalled HP Bluetooth package sp44774.exe, no success. I then goggled and found a another package sp53961.exe, still I have the problem. Windows Update is configured to auto search for updates.
    Anyone have an idea what to do next?

    Amazing how it can be the simplest things that get overlooked.   Glad it is working.

  • Hp pavilion dv6 laptop has a black screen problem.

    Hello,  
    I dont know how to fix my hp pavilion dv6 laptop. 
    The laptop is working,have the necessary sounds after i  
    turn it on,but the problem is that the screen stays always black 
    ..I connect the lap top to tv screen or external monitor and it shows that everything is working properly.
    The laptop may have hit a hard surface. The laptop worked well until about 1 week ago when I turned it on and the screen was hazy at first. I turned it off and turned it back on and the screen was completely black but still had the start-up sound. Someone suggested I see if it works on an external monitor and that worked.
    Does anyone kow how I can fix the black screen of my hp pavilion dv6 laptop?
    I do lots of study with it and have my exams coming up soon. I need my laptop to be mobile with me and not stationed in one place. Thanks in advance for the help!

    Hi
    I'll try helping you with this,
    You'll have to give it for repair - display assembly replacement. The display panel might be at fault here as your system works good when connected to external monitor.
    But before that,
    Do a hard reset first --
    Turn off the computer by pressing SHIFT KEY while you click SHUT DOWN.
    Remove the computer from any port replicator or docking station.
    Disconnect all external connected peripheral devices such as USB storage devices, external displays, and printers.
    Unplug the AC adapter from the computer, shut down system.
    Remove the battery from the battery compartment.
    Press and hold down the Power button for about 15 seconds to drain any residual electrical charge from the capacitors that protect the memory.
    Insert the battery and plug the AC adapter back into the notebook computer, but do not connect any of the peripheral devices.
    Press the Power button to turn on the computer.
    Next:
    To confirm, connect it to other monitor & do a full extensive hard drive & memory test from BIOS, tap quickly F2 or F10 soon after powering on the system.
    If all tests are passed, contact HP service center.

  • My HP Pavilion dv6 laptop wont turn on

    My HP Pavilion dv6 laptop does not turn on. Problem with my laptop started couple weeks ago.  At that time, when computer goes to sleep mode after inactive for some time, power light and led lights stays on but screen is black. I can not do anything else but to press power button for few second and force turn off. If I turn on computer right away then computer will have black screen and nothing happens. If I remove battery and wait for few minutes and connect the power cord directly to computer and turn on then it will turn on normally and work until it goes back to sleep again. But now, its not even turning on at all. So far I tried hard reset, plugged in to different monitor and RAM test but no luck. Again when I turn on, caps lock and num lock lights blink and fan turns on and power lights, volume lights and wifi lights stays on but nothing on screen. Thank you in advance for any help. 

    Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community!
    I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook and having issues with performance. Here is a link to computer will not start.  I would start at the top and work my way down. Mine was fixed with reseating the HDD. Others have had it fixed with just reseating the Memory. Here is a video that shows you how to remove and reseat the HDD and memory. Please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices, as these could cause some issues.  You could reset the BIOS with this document selecting the reloading the BIOS default settings. Which has helped others as it restores the default settings. Plug the power adapter directly into a functioning wall outlet. Do not plug it into a power strip, surge protector, or secondary power source as this could cause and issue. Please let me know how this goes. Thanks.

  • HP pavillion DV6 laptop fan isn't running to the max

    As of late my DV6 laptop's fans aren't running at max rpm as they should be during heavy loads like gaming or video processing. It'll  run normally and keep on gaining heat until it hits 80 degrees celcius by searching the web, yet the fan will still be at maybe 20-30% running capacity. When running games, it often drops my fps from 100% of its max capacity to mabye 30 to 40%. Is there a fix for this problem? I've already tried running all options of hp coolsense and I might try and get compressed air to air out the vents.

    Also apparenlty according to speedfan my GPU fan speed is 0 rpm. Could that attribute to the lack of fan speed?

  • HP DV6 Laptop - How do I find my Windows 7 Product Key

    Model:  DV6-1149WM

    I purchased a new hard drive for my laptop.  I want to install a clean version of Windows 7 on this hard drive.  The Windows product key sticker is badly worn on the bottom of my laptop and I can only make out a little more than half the characters on it.  Where can I find the Windows 7 product key?  I tried to use an app to find it but it only finds a generic key since it was an OEM install.  Can you please tell me how I can find my product key?  I want to do a clean install of Windows 7 on my new hard drive so I don't want to install it from any kind of recovery disk.  Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Dv6 laptop screen not working

    My laptop was woking fine, but I bumped it/dropped it slightly. The screen went black (but still lit). 
    I tried the "remove battery, hold down power button" trick but it didn't help.
    when I turned it back on, the screen did some pulsating light with some pixel-y sections.
    I also tried connecting it to an external monitor, but it didn't work.
    Also,  I don't think it's even fully starting up anymore.

    Hi  
    I understand that your display is not coming up anymore after having been dropped. I am happy to assist.
    I would start with this page: Troubleshooting Black Screen Displays with No Error Messages During Startup or Boot
    Depending on any progress or lack thereof you should then check out these:
    Resolving Problems with Notebook Displays (Windows 7 and Windows 8)
    Diagnosing a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for Damage
    Also,take a look at the service guide; it is possible that a connection for the display or some other component has come loose. This can help with that.

  • URGENT QUESTION concerning Pavilion DV6 laptop charger

    Hey I have a question: I have two HP laptops; one is the Pavilion dv6 and has a charger with the series number PPP009L-E, with input 1.6A and 65W;
    The other laptop is the Pavilion dv6-3236NR, with the charger having the series number PPP009D, with input 1.7A and 65W.
    My question is, can I use the second charger for the first charger's laptop? My first Pavilion dv6 won't charge at all! Could someone PLEASE help me ASAP and tell me if it's the charger's problem, battery problem, or both, and whether I could use the second charger on the laptop!

    Hi Sekhar,
    Well the error code would certainly indicate that the drive has started to fail, but just in case, you could try wiping the entire Hard Drive first and then reinstalling the Operating System as described below.
    Download and install Killdisk on the link below - ( this application will write zeros to the entire drive ).
    http://software.lsoft.net/KillDiskSuiteFree-Setup.exe
    Download and install ImgBurn on the link below.
    http://download.cnet.com/ImgBurn/3000-2646_4-10847481.html
    Go to the Kill Disk application you have installed in All Programs, open the main folder, then select Bootable Disk creators and from that select Bootable DOS CD Creator which will burn the bootable ISO to a blank CD.
    During the next process do not worry about any warnings as your Windows 7 installation disc will reformat the HDD.
    Insert this CD in to your PC that is unable to load Operating System properly. Shut the notebook down, then start it again to boot from the Killdisk CD and follow the on screen instructions for Kill Disk.
    A brief description of the process is here Killdisk.
    Use this to wipe the whole of the Hard Drive, highlight (80h) and press f10 ( you will also have to type a confirmation and hit enter ) - ( this will make sure you include all partitions and then start the process - this may take a couple of hours! ). 
    When the process is complete, remove the Killdisk CD and try installing Windows 7 again.
    If it still fails, I think your only option is to replace the HDD.

  • Why does my HP DV6 laptop randomly shut down and stop charging?

    I believe I've asked this question before. In August 2011 I got a laptop:
    HP DV6
    Product #: 
    LW260UA#ABD 
    Processor
    AMD A8-3500M APU
    My problem is that my laptop always has to sit in a certain position of it is going to be able to charge. Is this due to the port where the laptop is charging being faulty and loose? Also when I unplug the charger the laptop shuts off automatically within  1 minute. I then have to plug the laptop up to the charger again for it to work. Basically, I need to ALWAYS have my laptop plugged in for it to work. I tried doing the battery test on the laptop, but it said it's fine and has no bad cells. Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Hi melkouas,
    Thank you for your inquiry, I will try my best to help.
    I grasp that you are experiencing a charge issue.  You have tested the battery and it is OK, but you must be connected to power for it to work.
    I have located documents I believe will help. Battery Does not Power Notebook or Hold a Charge
     and Testing and Calibrating the Battery (Windows 7).
    Please let me know if you would like further assistance.

  • Pavilion dv6 - laptop receiving power but will not power on

    Pavilion dv6-6c53cl
    Windows 7
    As of earlier tonight, I can no longer power on my laptop. (I powered it successfully earlier today.) When the power adapter is plugged in, the indicator light on the laptop next to the power connector socket turns on, so at least the laptop is receiving power. I've tried removing the battery and disconnecting the adapter, draining the power, and reconnecting the adapter with and without the battery in, and in various orders. I've also tried removing and reseating both RAM sticks and the hard drive, all to no avail. Any suggestions?
    This is the fourth major failure of this system---the first three were a fan problem just weeks after purchase, a hard drive failure, and another fan problem---since I purchased it 22 months ago, and I feel I've bought a lemon.
    I'd like to avoid taking this in for repair if possible, because the local repair contractor (I live in Australia) badly bungled the previous repair: They took several weeks even to start on the repair, failed to fix one problem, and introduced a second, more severe problem (a keyboard failure, which somehow they didn't test despite apparently removing and reseating it when fixing a fan problem). I asked HP support about this, and the rep said there were no other shops near where I live that do in-warranty repairs. Please help!

    Can you post the different things you have tried and Current version of OS on this notebook?

    Hi
    My laptop was toooooo slow and looks like some process was running
    in the background especially lots of scvhost.exe. Tried some
    malware removal and couldn't resolve it.
    Now I'm not able to login to my system at all.
    I have tried all possible options
    a. Tried to run scandisk
    b. Tried to start OS in safemode prompt(It stops at classpnp.sys)
    c. Tried to start OS in safemode with netword
    d. Command prompt
    e. Tried to execute chkdsk, scandsk etc etc.
    None of the options able to solve the problem. It keeps on giving me a message"Smart hard disk error" and sometimes it runs the scandisk and it keeps on gives me a message for each segment "File record segment 12345 is unreadable"
    Don't know what to do. After reading many posts in the net, suggestions were to replace the hard drive I am worried about it.
    It is just 1 year and 2 months I bought the laptop and now I dont have warranty as well. Dont know what to do.
    Is there any way I can resolve my hard drive?
    Can you help me out to resolve it?

    I have seen several people report Recovery hanging and not completing when the hdd is smaller than the original. Years ago when hdds were 20-40gb I could understand the problem with running Recovery from disks on a 20gb if the machine came with a 40gb_but I would have thought /hoped that HP would have eliminated that issue with todays huge hdds.From several posts here in the forum, the problem has not gone away.
    If you install Linux now booting from Recovery Disks will wipe out Linux,so if you hope to dual-boot it will have to be reinstalled after recovering windows 7.
