HP Pav. DV4-1428dx updated bios, now just flashing light will not run off ac

ran a few updates including bios, computer went dead with the ac plugged in, will not charge the battery any longer, when it goes dead and I leave it alone it will charge and start up and run off batter but just like right now with ac plugged in the lightning bolt is just flashing blue, i do not understand, ive read on the other sights of resetting the bios with USB drive, anyone got any ideas or assitance?

Dude, I have the same exact problem with mine. It's not a cheap fix either. It definitely is the motherboard.
I'm no expert, but I believe the problem is a dead capacitor on the motherboard preventing it to build up a charge.
I spoke with an HP rep, which told me it's $398 for them to fix.
I let them know that I didn't have another $400 to put into this laptop. So, they suggested I try reseating the motherboard. And also reseating the memory modules.
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01597750.pdf
That is a pdf of the laptop's manual. It'll help in reseating. Page ( 59 ) for the motherboard. Page ( 67 ) for the memory modules.
This hasn't helped at all with mine, but maybe it'll help with yours!

  • New Security Update and now apple based programs will not run

    I recently downloaded and installed the new security update. I also attempted to download the safari 3.1 update, but an error occurred during download. After restart, iTunes, Mail, Safari, Installer and iMovie will not start (Quicktime will start). The applications from bar and from applications folder will not launch. All third party apps seem to work (I used Explorer 5.2-which I found hidden in one of my folders- to download firefox which I am using now)
    I have tried:

    -Deleting preference files

    -Booting from safe mode and single user mode

  • After recent updates, mute light will not turn off

    My computer downloaded a bunch of system updates last night, and now the mte light will not turn off.  It still functions properly (turning sound on/off), but the light stays on regardless.  I either have windows 8 or 8.1 not sure what's the difference.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I suggest using Windows system restore to roll back the updates, one at a a time to find the  one that caused it.

  • HT1338 Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

    Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

    Sorry for being unclear.
    When I am using the update in the App Store App, there will be a list of various applications that have updates to be installed (Final Cut Pro will be in this list).  I will already be logged in with the Apple ID I use for everything (my dev account).  I will be able to update all of the other various applications needing updating except for my Final Cut Pro.  When I click the update button next to the FCP update, it will give me an error saying  "This download is not available for this apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled"
    I have not had any applications refunded or cancelled and this has only happened since my update to Yosemite.  FCP was working fine until the upgrade.  Is there anything that can be done to fix this?

  • I updated, but now my keyboard backlight will not work. Any suggestions?

    I recently updated my MacBook Pro to OSX 10.8.4, but now my keyboard backlight does not work and there is nothing I can find in the Keyboard section of preferences to turn it back on. Anyone else had this problem?

    One of these steps should help.
    1. Restart.
    2. Press F6 key couple of times.
    3. System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard
                           Uncheck the box next to "Adjust keyboard brightness in low light"
    4. Reset SMC

    Hello Larry.
    Hopefully this support article is what you need:
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+will+not+start
    Anyway, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

  • I've just switched to Firefox from IE, have re-started, and now Adobe Flash Player will not download.

    I installed Firefox, and went to use a web-page. I was informed that I need to install the latest Flash player, so I went to the Adobe site. Adobe's installer would get to the 12% mark and stop.
    I went to my Control Panel and uninstalled my previous version of Adobe Flash, tried again, same failure to download. I also can't access IE anymore, Firefox appears and has apparently beaten up and subdued Internet Explorer... which is not really an issue, but I'd like to get Adobe set up on my machine. I never had such a problem with IE.
    Thanks for your time.

    You can check if the file has been fully downloaded. The download location would be the one listed in Firefox '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > '''General'''. Please also check if you are able to download from other sites in Firefox. If the problem persists please also try in [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315222 Windows Safe Mode with Networking] and later install it in normal mode.

  • Boot Camp Update 2.1 will not run

    I'm trying to install Windows XP on my Intel Macbook. It's a legal copy purchased from Microsoft so no trouble there.
    The Bootcamp Assistant worked fine and the Windows install worked fine. I'm now at the point of trying to install the Boot Camp drivers but I don't have my Leopard disc available. (I bought a an OS X Family Pack and my son currently has the discs 20 miles away.)
    Accordingly, I downloaded the Boot Camp 2.1 update from Apple but it simply will not run under Windows in the Boot Camp partition. It briefly looks (1-2 seconds) as though it's starting, but then never does.
    I tested the .exe file on a pure Windows machine and it runs fine so there's no file corruption problems.
    I've searched online but can't seem to find any solution to this particular problem.

    But that's not what the Apple download page says. Specifically it says the following.
    "Note: This download contains complete copies of Boot Camp Windows XP Drivers (version 2.1). If you have Boot Camp drivers already installed, it will update them. If you do not have any Boot Camp drivers installed, it will install version 2.1 drivers onto your already installed Windows OS."
    Hi,
    I admit I haven't ever taken a closer look at that and as said to my knowledge, the 2.1 update only works with the 2.0 drivers already installed.
    Just did a quick googling and couldn't find any success story of using the 2.1 Update as a standalone driver install without having the 2.0 driver installed before.
    Do you have the needed Admin rights when running the update.exe ?

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.
