HP Media Smart not recognizin​g Digital Antenna after upgrading to Windows 7

HP Pavilion dv6t-1200 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC
I recently upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista and ever since I cannot seem to have HP Mediasmart recognize the digital formats for signal input. It only shows analog cable and analog antenna.
I also seem to have lost the all-in-one navigation tools from where I can choose if I need tv or dvd, etc.
I tried upgrading the driver for the tuner as recommended by HP Assistant but it does not seem to work. I also tried upgrades from the following page recommended by HP for my system:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os​=4063&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=3945150
I used to get more channels with HP Media Smart than with Windows Media Center. Btw, Windows Media Smart works just as fine after the upgrade.
Please help. Thanks.

Here is a copy of my reply to this problem in another post.
This may be of no help but here goes. I am not a real computer person. Anyway I had the same problem and also lost the digital part of my tuner when I downloaded the W7 mediasmart live TV. After a lot of attempts to fix stuff I uninstalled Mediasmart live TV. It worked. Next I downloaded the W7 live TV. Installed but could not find it. Desperate I restored the Vista version from the partition. Could not find that either. Next I did a search (start menu) for mediasmart live tv. One thing was found which I clicked on. It appears another install took place.
Now Live TV works and I get full screen. Also my tuner went back to analog antenna/cable and digital antenna/cable (QAM). I really have no explaination for this but I'm back with W7. Can't find a version number but it's 71 mb in size at
c:\program files (x86)\Hewlett-Packard\media\live tv"
Dumb luck
So that's what happened. I think the uninstall had something to do with solving the problem. Why I could not find the W7 download is beyond me. I was at a point where I didn't think I could make it worse so I thought I'd try anything. No TV problems with Windows Media Center during any of this.

  • My Aspire 7750G does not show the login screen after upgrade to Windows 10

    I have upgraded to Windows 10 on my 7750G and the update went thru smooth.But when I restart Windows it shows the windows screen with the moving dotted circle,the harddisk led stays on for a while, then starts flickering, and a blank screen is shown!After waiting - about 2 to 3 minutes - it goes directly to the lock screen, no login screen is shown.

    joeboemoe,
    The lock screen is where you login now, if I am not mistaken. The notebooks we have here boot to a lock screen we have to click to log in, even my PC at home does. If you want to take a look at this article we created, it might be what you are looking for.
    I created a password for one of the logins on one of our notebooks and I had the option to choose Never under "If you've been away, when should Windows require you to sign in again?"

  • Lenovo Y50 not streaching 4:3 resolutions after upgrading to Windows 10

    Hello I play CS:GO on an external FHD display. My ingame rez is 1280x1024 stretched (no borders). It was fine on windows 7, and now after updating to windows 10 it doesn't stretch it to fit the whole display. I couldn't find this setting nor in the Intel GPU settings nor in Nvidia. I also tried both new lenovo and official intel drivers. I also tried fiddling in the registry but it doesn't work the same way like in windows 7. Can we have this fixed pls

    Hi, I've got the same problem on my Pavilion dv7 [currently don't remember details of model] - further I don't have my favourite BeatsAudio drivers and it make me nervous. 'Clear' system installation ist't a sollution. Later I was working on Windows 7. Symptomps are similar to above.

  • Computer does not sleep automatically after upgrading to Windows 8.1?

    I have Windows 8.1 and my laptop will not sleep even though its settings are set on a time frame to automatically - used to sleep perfectly fine without any issues before on Windows 8. I'm sure I don't have any applications such as, Windows Media Player
    running or etc. that prevents my computer from sleeping because I've tested it with no applications running and does the same thing. The only thing it does is dimming and turns of the display on time. This is frustrating and inconvenient that I always have
    to manually sleep through power settings, please help me fix this!
    **I've heard this isn't just my problem and many people also experience the same issue after upgrading to Windows 8.1**
    Please see attached photo below:

    Thank you for your suggestion, Carey Frisch! I've left homegroup but it doesn't seem to temporary band-aid the issue. I've tried the other solutions there but I'm left to no avail.
    "Hopefully Windows 8.2, which is slated to drop in the first half of January 2014, will address this sleeping pandemic, for now we all have to leave with Microsoft’s shenanigans."
    I hope Microsoft addresses this issue as I'm not the only user who has this problem and fixes it in a soon coming update! Do something about it Microsoft!
    I guess all we can do is play the waiting game and hope Microsoft listens...

    Check Settings > General > Restrictions, and check out Contacts toward the bottom under the privacy restrictions.
    That sounds like the probable cause you cannot add contacts.
    Regarding the iCloud behavior, that sounds like it got huge (35,000) because of incorporating other contacts (from social media, perhaps).  Also contacts sync has nothing to do with iCloud behavior.  The whole idea of keeping your contacts in the cloud is that once you change them on one device, they change everywhere.  Specific syncs are not relevant.

  • Keyboard wireless key not working after upgrading to windows 8.1

    Hello,
    I am having hp pavilion dv6-6165tx notebook, where keyboard having a wireless button that turns ON and OFF all wireless devices, After upgrading to windows 8.1, HP Connection Manager is not getting installed, as well as Key is not working, key color turns red and white but no action is performed.
    Kindly suggest me some solution.
    Note: HP Doesn't provide drivers for windows 8/8.1 ONLY WINDOWS 7 for hp pavilion dv6-6165tx.
    Thanks.

    Hi @Jayesh_Bhadja ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion dv6-6165tx Notebook and the Wireless keyboard not working correctly. Here is a link to troubleshoot the keyboard.
    The HP Connection Manager is something that is for Windows 7 not Windows 8.1. I would uninstall this from your Notebook.  Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system that need updating. It has a troubleshooting tool in this.
    Make sure all your updates have been completed. I would try restarting my Notebook a few times.
    If that does not help I would uninstall the keyboard from the Device manager.
    Thanks.

  • Ethernet LAN not working after upgrading to windows 8.1

    After upgrading from Windows 8 to 8.1, my Ethernet LAN is no longer working. Wireless LAN connectivity is OK. I have run the HP Support Assistant and downloaded the drivers for 8.1. Hovever, I do not see a 8.1 driver listed for the Ethernet LAN.

    You're very welcome. See if the recovery manager still works so you can roll back to W8. Please read this guide for how to use it. http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03489643 If it doesn't then you will have to order a set of recovery disks from HP, or you can install this plain W8 OEM software this guy has posted on a link. Lots of folks have used it successfully, which is why I posted it. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0W9PBigPy94aVJWSndyTFNFMzg/edit?pli=1 Then use this tool to make the iso file bootable to a DVD or 4+ GB USB flash drive. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/windows-usb-dvd-download-tool Yes, that really stinks why you and I could not upgrade without an issue. I disabled about 5 or 6 devices in the device manager and the code 12 would not go away. I have no clue why the PC works fine on W8 but not on W8.1. My notebook is a few years older than yours and it worked fine on W8.1 but not on W10. Go figure...

  • Bluetooth Not Working after upgrading to Windows 8.1

    My Laptop is HP Pavilion G6 2015 tx after upgrade to windows 8.1, bluetooth is not working also the battery drain has increased anyone know a fix atleast for bluetooth problem ???

    You're very welcome.
    That is very interesting, because I didn't know of anyone who upgraded to W8.0 with a Ralink wireless card with the BT 3.0 radio that got the BT to work at all.
    We tried the W7 drivers, and they didn't work.
    That is why you don't see a W8 Ralink BT driver for the bluetooth on your PC's support and driver page amongst the other 11 drivers listed.
    The Ralink 3.0 version of BT is not supported in W8.
    While somehow the BT has worked in W8 for you, I'm afraid your luck has run out.
    Unless by some fluke, HP installed a card with the BT 4.0 radio on your model...
    You can try this W8 driver for the Ralink card with the BT 4.0 radio, but don't get your hopes up.

    If the "it" refers to a compressed (zipped) spreadsheet that you downloaded, the ".ods" extension is used by LibreOffice and probably OpenOffice (which are free versions of MS Office) for spreadsheets, which would suggest that wherever you're getting that "Excel" file from has switched to one of those programs. I've tried opening an .ods file from LibreOffice using MS Office 2013 for Windows and it does open though with a warning that some things have been changed. I don't know if Office for Mac can normally open .ods files. But if your need is to just open .ods files, take a look at LibreOffice.

  • Re: NB200-134 - FN key not working after upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate

    My FN keys of NB200-134 is not working after upgrading from Windows 7 starter to Windows 7 ultimate. I tried installing every drivers found on Toshiba website for my lappy but still it does not work.
    Help please

    Hi asalamk,
    The FN keys are controlled by Value Added Package and Flash Cards Support Utility. I think you have forgotten to install these tools
    You should check the Toshiba page again and download both tools. Start with installation of Value Added Package then restart your notebook. After this install Flash Cards Support Utility. Once again restart and all FN keys should work properly now.

  • Note 1054131 - Invalid DB objects after upgrade

    HI,
    We performed a migration from SAP 4.6C/Oracle9i.solaris to SAP 4.6C/Oracle10g/HPUX.
    Now we need to upgrade SAP4.6C/Oracle10g/HPUX to ECC6.0.
    As a prerequisite, I have checked the note
    Note 1054131 - Invalid DB objects after upgrade
    And I ran the script
    SQL> SELECT OWNER, OBJECT_NAME, OBJECT_TYPE FROM DBA_OBJECTS
      2  WHERE STATUS='INVALID'
      3  AND
      4  OWNER='SYS';
    OWNER
    OBJECT_NAME
    OBJECT_TYPE         STATUS
    SYS
    DBMS_REPCAT_FLA
    PACKAGE BODY        INVALID
    SYS
    DBMS_REPCAT_MAS

    All the invalid objects are package body, can anyone help me how to proceed with this, can I proceed my upgrade to ECC 6.0 or do I need to delete the package body.
    If I want to delete the package body,can you pl give me the commands and also post which whether I need to execute any steps
    Pl help

    Hi,
    I guess you are talking about the Oracle Upgrade and not ECC Upgrade, as following are the pre-requisites for an ECC upgrade.
    Making Database-Specific Preparations for Oracle
    1. Check the value of parameter shared_pool_size:
    4 Preparation
    Making Preparations at the Database Level
    Oracle 9.2: Check the value in file $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/init<SID>.ora.
    Oracle 10.1 and higher:
    select NAME, VALUE from v$parameter where name=’shared_pool_size’;
    select NAME, VALUE from v$parameter where name=’shared_pool_reserved_size’;
    If the value is lower than 150 MB, increase it to at least 150 MB (400 MB is better), and restart the
    database.
    2. Log on as user <sapsid>adm at the operating system level.
    3. Log on to the database as the Oracle user system with sqlplus
    4. Check the resource quotas of the database user SAPR3 or SAP<SAPSID>:
    Oracle error 1536 can occur during the upgrade if the resource quotas of database user SAPR3
    orSAP<SAPSID> are limited. Make sure that these quotas are unlimited. Check whether the table
    DBA_SYS_PRIVS contains one of the following entries:
    grantee=’SAPR3/SAP<SAPSID>’,privilege=’UNLIMITED TABLESPACE’,adm=’YES’
    grantee=’SAPR3/SAP<SAPSID>’,privilege=’UNLIMITED TABLESPACE’,adm=’NO’
    To do this, enter the following SQLPLUS statement:
    select * from dba_sys_privs where grantee = ’SAPR3/SAP<SAPSID>’;
    If this entry does not exist, enter the SQLPLUS statement:
    grant unlimited tablespace to sapr3/SAP<SAPSID>;
    5. Log off from the database with the command quit.
    6. Only if using the dictionary managed tablespaces function:
    Make sure that the storage parameters MAXEXTENTS and NEXT have the correct values for certain tables and indexes. Otherwise, they may overflow during the upgrade. The Oracle-specific upgrade SAP Note contains the tables and the required minimum values.You can display the current settings with BRSPACE. The index names are not constant. However, you can also determine these names with BRSPACE. SAP Note 11777 describes how to change the parameters NEXT and MAXEXTENTS.
    7. Only valid for: SAP R/3 3.1I
    Make sure that parameter OPTIMIZER_MODE is set to OPTIMIZER_MODE=RULE.
    For Oracle 9.2, check and, if necessary, edit the following Oracle profile:
    $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/init<SAPSID>.ora
    For Oracle 10.1. and higher, use the following statements:
    Sqlplus /nolog
    Connect /as sysdba
    Alter system set OPTIMIZER_MODE=’RULE’ scope=spfile;
    8. Only if you do not switch off archiving during the upgrade:
    If you want to leave brarchive running during the upgrade to avoid archiver stuck situations (brarchive -f ...), proceed as follows:
    a) Create a temporary copy of brarchive:
    4 Preparation
    4.23 Making Preparations at the SAP System Level
    cp /usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/exe/run/brarchive /tmp
    b) Start brarchive as user ora<sapsid> from the temporary directory /tmp/brarchive -f ...
    c) After the upgrade, delete the copy of brarchive.
    This procedure avoids upgrade errors caused by the program files being overwritten during the upgrade.
    9. If your database version is already higher than the minimum version for the new release, we recommend that you exchange the DBA tools (such as BRSPACE) for the upgrade. The Database Software Oracle DVD for the database contains the up-to-date tools that you unpacked on the current kernel when you migrated the database. After you execute PREPARE, unpack this archive again into the exe subdirectory of the upgrade directory. This overwrites the DBA tools optimized for the minimum required database version with the tools best suited to your database version.
    And if you are talking about an Oracle Upgrade then you just need these to compare once you have upgraded to 10g.
    3.9 Checking for Invalid Database Objects
    This optional step lets you check if there are any invalid database objects before the database upgrade to Oracle database 10g starts. After the upgrade it helps you distinguish database objects that have become invalid due to the upgrade process from those that were already invalid to start with.
    Procedure
    1. Execute the following commands:
    SQL> spool invalid_objects
    SQL> select unique object_name, object_type, owner from dba_objects where status
    = 'INVALID';
    SQL> @?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql
    SQL> select unique object_name, object_type, owner from dba_objects where status
    = 'INVALID';
    SQL> spool off
    A list of invalid objects before the upgrade is now generated.
    2. Check the list of invalid objects after the upgrade.
    If any objects in the list from before the upgrade are also in the list of invalid objects after the upgrade, you can be sure that this is not due to the upgrade process.
    Regards,
    Suhas
