HP ENVY 17t Quad - SD Card Reader - can it utilize an SDXC Card

I have the H Envy 17t Quad . Can it properly and safely utilize an SDXC Card?
My specific specs are at bottom of posting.
I have looked thru the Maintenance and Service Guide and cannot find any info regarding the SD card reader specs.
My Camcorder uses an SDXC 64 Gb card. I don't want to put the card into the 17T reader if it can't read the SDXC card since there is a potential for the SDXC card to be damaged by a reader which can't properly access an SDXC card.

Good Morning mykejb,
As I stated your specifications do not state the exact cards it supports. I regret that I am unable to give you a yes or no answer.
If you check around the card reader itself, sometimes on the bottom of the notebook, it will list the supported card types. If not all I can suggest is try and see. If it seems if the card is too small for the slot, you may need an adapter for an SDXC card.
Here is a link to SD/SDHC/SDXC Specifications and Compatibility( from scan disk support). Please note this quote"NOTE: Internal card readers on laptops from 2008 and prior may NOT support SDXC cards. SDXC cards will work in SDHC compatible readers (not SD readers) if the computer OS supports exFAT. For more information on exFat see: Operating Systems that support the exFAT File System"

HP ENVY 17t Quad-j000 I Want To Play FIFA 15

I Have A HP ENVY 17t Quad-j000 With Windows 8.1
(Product name: HP ENVY 17 Notebook PC)
(Product number: C8U19AV)
(OS: Windows 8.1 Pro with Media Center 64-bit)
(Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4800MQ CPU @ 2.70GHz)
(Graphics Device #1 NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M)

My PC Is Equipped With To GPUs One from Intel (Intel HD Graphics 4600) and NVIDIA (NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M 2GB DDR3)
I Like To Play FIFA 15 But I’m Having Problems When I Play FIFA 15 Threw NVIDIA I Only Get About 15Fps How Could I Get The Game To Run Faster? I Would Like To
Get It To Run On High Settings At 1600x900 Around 30Fps Would I Be Able To Do That?
My Other Question Is NVIDIA Optimus I Don’t like It and I Was Wounding If I Could Disable It? and Have NVIDIA Run My Computer, the Ports like HDMI and My Internal Display

FIFA 15 minimum video card is a GeForce 650 GTX. You have a 740M
Let's look at the comparison:
http://gpuboss.com/gpus/GeForce-GTX-650-vs-GeForce-GT-740M
It is close but the 650 GTX is maybe 15-20% faster. So you are trying to play the game with a video card 15-20% less powerful than the MINIMUM requirement. Therefore you get 15 fps. 20 fps would be minimum. To get 30 fps you would need the recommended card which is a GTX 460. Compared here:
http://gpuboss.com/gpus/GeForce-GTX-460-v2-vs-GeForce-GT-740M
The gap is even greater. So you are getting about all you are going to get out of a 740M video card. If you want to game better you need a better computer.

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.

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.

HP ENVY 17T QUAD

Can I use an external add on keyboard with this laptop?
Thanks for the help

If by that you mean a usb or bluetooth keyboard; absolutely yes. You can go into power settings, look for "what happens when I close the lid" set it to "do nothing" on battery and AC power, hook up an external monitor, and a usb keyboard and mouse and use the laptop as a CPU like a desktop or keep the screen open and use the laptop screen as a second display.

HP Envy 17T OS

I have recently purchased a HP Envy 17T Quad Laptop (non-touch) . The computer comes with Windows 8.1 OS. I would like to use Windows 7 instead. Do you have a preconfigured disc that will work on my computer for Windows 7? I haven't used the computer yet, so if this isn't available I may need to return it and purchase something else that I can get Windows 7 for.

Hi,
Please check our dicussion on the following post:

HP Envy 17T Hinge

When I open/close the laptop I feel the left back side shifting. It looks like the hinge is shifting and then separating part of the upper case from the lower case. I can push the pieces back in place but the next time I open/close the case the same thing happens.
I received the laptop in April 2014. What steps do I need to take to get this repaired under warranty.
This is a HP ENVY 17t Quad TouchSmart Product number: E2E11AV.

Envy TouchSmart 17t-j000 Quad Memory Card Reader

My Envy TouchSmart 17t-j000 Quad memory card reader does not work. Notebook is only about six months old and I tried out a memory stick for the first time yesterday and nothing happened. The memory stick works fine in another computer. When I plug the memory stick in there is no AutoPlay window and it is not listed in This PC window. In Device Manager I do not see the card reader listed in USB controllers and Disk drives. I do see listed in Device Manager in Memory technology devices a Realtek PCIE CardReader. It is enabled and has the latest driver update. I have tried shutting down, disconnected power cord, removed battery, reversed procedure, and restarting notebook with the memory stick installed, still nothing. This Envy came with Windows 8 and I updated to 8.1. Also, all four USB ports work. System diagnostics test was performed and everything passed. Should I try to uninstall and re-install the Realtek PCIE CardReader? Thanks to anyone that can help?

Hp Envy 17t-j100 Quad Edition Notebook PC Graphics Card Upgrade

I bought the Hp Envy 17t-j100 Quad Edition Notebook PC a while back and i was wondering if i could upgrade the graphics card on it. When you buy the laptop if gives you an option, you can either buy the Intel Deticated Graphics or the Nvidia Geforce GT 740 and i decided to buy the Nvidia GT 740 because i heard the integrated graphics were not that good for playing games. So i was wondering if i could somehow take out the NVidia Geforce GT 740 and replace with a better graphics card, Would that be possible?
Thanks

Sorry; no dice. The video card is soldered to the motherboard. The point-of-sale options are for laptops with different motherboards. Buying a laptop is like buying a house: think about what you need now and in the future because they are not easy to change.

HP ENVY 17t-j000 Quad Edition CTO Notebook PC- wrong graphics card?

I just realized recently that my notebook doesnt have the adapter that was promised when i bought this notebook.
it says my adapter is the Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600, but i have an Nvidia GEFORCE sticker on my laptop. I'm pretty sure i was supposed to receive a NVIDEA graphics card.
I am running windows 8.1

Hi,
It's a CTO machine, did you order the Nvidia card ? Please check Device Manager, can you see something similar to my loan Envy 17t-jxxx machine:

Would like to upgrade WLAN on HP Envy 17t-j100 Quad

Sorry if this is a repeat question. Can I upgrade the wireless LAN card for this laptop to support 5Ghz standard? Even though this is a b/g/n card, it wil not recognize the 5Ghz band from my Netgear AC1450...it's obviously not dual band.
it came with the Realtek RTL8188EE 802.11bgn Wi-Fi Adapter. Great laptop so far but this issue is a bit disappointing.
if it is upradeable, what does HP offer that is compatible.
HP Envy 17t-j100 Quad

Hi:
Yes, the Realtek RTL8188EE 802.11bgn is only a single band (2.4 GHz) wireless N card.
It appears that HP has removed the BIOS whitelist on these newer models so you should be able to install any wireless card you want in that model.
Chapter 3 of the service manual lists the cards that HP supports with the part numbers.
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c04091762.pdf
I would make sure your current card has 2 antenna leads attached to it.
I have heard on some models, (not necessarily yours) that on some of those low end cards, there is only 1 antenna in the PC.
That could be a problem (unless you don't mind tearing the whole notebook and display apart to add the additional antenna).

TriDef 3D can't recognize 3D Monitor on HP ENVY 17t-3000 CTO Notebook PC

Is there a Monitor driver for the HP ENVY 17t-3000 CTO Notebook PC? when trying to run the 14-day trial version of TriDef3D 6.3, it says
Please connect to a 3D compatible display (00300136)
When checking the driver for the monitor, it says Generic PNP Monitor. I can't find a driver for it.
I am running the latest display driver from HP.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-114562-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
I have been trying to use the drivers from the AMD website in order to get the support for the latest games, but it does not accurately detect the correct video card chip and installs the wrong driver.
I have a Radeon (TM) HD 7690M XT according to Device Manager when using the HP driver.
Your ideas of how to resolve these issues are much appreciated.
Update: I opened it and figured out the monitor model number:
LP173WF1(TL)(B4)
None selling this screen model is touting 3D, just Full HD. Looks like the fellow who sold it to me was also duped into believing he was buying a 3D model online, but was sold a 2D model. He didn't know how to use the 3D anyway (difficulty level with TriDef is advanced) so never tested or viewed 3D on this laptop.
Would it be possible to swap this screen with a 3D model on this machine?

Hi @WingedPaladin,
Thank you for your information.
When I did some searching with the serial number, I was unable to display any additional information. which usually means that because it is a CTO model that the information has not been entered into our system.
However the product number did provide that it was a refurbished unit.
I know you stated you had a difficultly opening the notebook to check the motherboard for the 50 pin connection. The maintnenace guide should have a section on removals. If you were unsuccessful I would try again.
Another thing to check is the properties of the graphic card installed, as it would also need to support 3D.
You may wish to contact HP support for assistance, as they can remotely access your system to be able to check things out.

Can I install a mSATA ssd in my HP ENVY 17t-k000 CTO Notebook PC?

Can I install a mSATA ssd in my HP ENVY 17t-k000 CTO Notebook PC? Added a 250 gb SATA sdd and 8 gb memory chip today but could not find any way to also add a 250 gb mSATA sdd. I looked on the front and back side of the system board.
Should I return the Samsung 840 EVO mSATA SSD I bought from Newegg?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The Service Manual is no help whatsoever. It says an M.2 mSSD is supported on "select models" but there is no picture of it in the Manual or indication where it is on the "Select Models". Those that do have it use an M.2 version (three connector prongs not 2) so your 840 Evo would not work even if you had one of the "Select Models". I believe on those that have it the M.2 port is right on the motherboard so if you do not see it there you are not among the select.
