Hp pavilion dv6500 upgrade to windows 8 64 bits

hi guys i have an hp pavilion dv6500 laptop with 64 bit processor and i want to upgrade it to windows 8 64 bit but during the installation am asked to select file or insert cd containing the drivers before proceeding with the installation. can anyone help me with a link to download these particular drivers please.....

Have you run the Windows 8 compatibility checker?

Open the Device Manager and see which devices are installed. That is important and will save a lot of time. Verify the wireless and wired network interface devices. Otherwise we will have to find out what they are the more difficult way.
You can install and run CPU-z to find out which chipset and graphics device is installed. Use the tabs. Once we know those, then finding the drivers is a possibility. The notebook may be a bit far back in generations for Windows 8, but Windows 8,1 does have a large builtin driverstore so it is a possibility.

Cannot install Boot Camp 3.2 upgrade for Windows 7 64 bit

I recently installed Windows 7 64 bit on my macbook. I also installed Boot Camp 3.0.1 after Windows 7 installation, however, WiFi did not work. Therefore, I needed to upgrade to the latest Boot Camp 3.2. However, when I tried to install Boot Camp 3.2 upgrade for Windows 7 74 bit, I got an error message saying that I needed Boot Camp 3.1 installed first. I CANNOT find Boot Camp 3.1 upgrade for Windows 7 64 bit on Apple website at all. Can someone please help me on this? Is there a way to get the complete Boot Camp 3.2 package that can simply be installed on version 3.0.1??

here is the link to bootcamp 3.1 for windows 7 64 bit http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1336 .. and no there is no package that can be applied to the windows side to go from 3.0.1 to 3.2

I have a sony laptop with windows 7 (64 bit) which I upgraded to windows 8 64 bit. But the machine had to be formatted and this time loaded windows 8 32 bit. Now I have tried itunes for 32bit win 8 as well as for 64bit win 8 but none is getting installed

I have a sony laptop with window 7 64 bit initially which I upgraded to windows 8 64 bit. But due to formatting later, I had to reinstall the windows and this time I installed windows 8 32 bit. Now I have tried installing iTunes for 64 bit windows 8 as well as 32 bit Windows 8 but none of them is getting installed. The message I get is, "this programme is not compatible for your pc" (or words to that affect since I dont remember the exact words but this is the meaning).
Can some body send me the link to the right file please. I need iTunes to transfer files from my iPod and iPhone to my laptop.

Hi claire.winteringham,
If you have a 64 bit machine then there shouldn't be any problem while installing any 32-bit software.
Try to download it with the below mentioned link :

Premiere Elements 4- upgraded to Windows 7 64-bit

I just upgraded to Windows 7 64-bit and reinstalled PE4.
I tried to start a new project, but when I import an avi, I can't view the footage.....there seems to be an extremely skinny bar at the bottom of the screen where I can see something playing.
I imported some jpegs just fine.
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

Good morning Steve,
All the clips are from my Flip video camera. I downloaded the clips straight from the camera.
Prior to the W7-64 upgrade, my laptop (HP DV2500) was running Vista, and I was able to use PE4 and E5 just fine.
This morning, I also tried using E5 to create a slideshow, but I'm having problems with that as well.
I'm guessing my drivers are outdated? I'm not sure what graphics card I have--- been clicking through my computer to try and find out.
I appreciate your response.
Regards,
CC

It looks like this unit has not yet been certified for Windows 8. Review this site to see what to expect when upgrading to Windows 8. Click on More Information at the bottom to get a more detailed list and to have the option to see if HP has tested the unit for Windows 8.
Make sure to install the Windows 8 HP Software Framwork found here.
There is a chance that some functions simply will not work. Since the unit has not been certified for Windows 8 and does not have Windows 8 drivers from HP, the Windows 7 drivers and software may need to be reinstalled using compatibility mode. Review my post located here for the method that seems to have the most success. The key to install HP software with compatibility mode is to let the extraction complete and then navigate to the real software installer in the extracted folder.
I recommend reinstalling the newest driver for each component in compatibility mode as outlined in the linked post. Here is the software page for your unit.
Let me know what happens.

Hp pavilion dv6-1030us with windows vista 64 bit now upgraded to windows7 32 bit.

hp pavilion dv6-1030us originally with windows vista 64 bit now upgraded to windows7 32 bit. mic is unable to send sound in skype after upgradation.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi,
Try the following.
First, uninstall Skype and when this has completed, restart the notebook.
When windows has reloaded, download and reinstall the Chipset driver Here.
When the installation has finished, restart the notebook again.
Let windows fully load, then download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp45001-45500/sp45044.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery, plug in the AC Adapter and start the notebook.
Let Windows fully load, then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, restart the notebook again.
Reinstall Skype and see if the Mic now works Ok.

Pavilion DV9008NR BIOS problem Windows 8 32-bit

I have an older Pavilion DV9008NR notebook:
RAM - 2 GB RAM
CPU - Athlon Turion 64 x2 1.6 GHz TL-50
Motherboard - Quanta 30B9
Chipset - NVDIA GeForce 6150
Southbridge - NVIDIA NForce 410/430 MCP
BIOS HP F.43 3/22/2010
Nvidia GPU - GeForce Go 6150 (UMA) (display adapter MS Bsic Disply Adapter C52 A.2
This was previously loaded with WinXP SP3 and slipstreamed with nLite 1.42 to load SATA drivers. It had previously had the BIOS flashed to F.43 (latest version).
It was "clean" upgraded with Windows 8 Pro Upgrade after passing all tests.
Upon rebooting, I got the standard HP/Phoenix BIOS screen with the usual prompts for <F10> BIOS Setup and <Esc> Boot Order.
Every time after that, the <F10> and <Esc> prompts are gone, and Win8 loads *faster* than usual.
Win 8 functionality appears fine, and the need Ricoh 5-in-1 and NVIDIA coprocesser drivers loaded without difficulty.
I went back to my old WinXP image, and BIOS loaded several times normally with <F10> and <Esc> prompts.
After reloading Win8, back to problem of no prompts after first reboot.
Trying <F10> or <Esc> during the BIOS load does *not* get you into BIOS Setup or Boot Order.
It appears that somewhere that Win8 is "pre-empting" the normal "flow" of the BIOS.
I do understand that Win8 does have some feature to take control to keep Boot Sector malware from taking control.
Is this what is happening? (Which becomes a real problem with <F10> and <Esc> maybe needed),
Is this a BIOS bug, or
Is there something else.
Thanks~

I'm sorry but this was very difficult to read. If I understand you are having an issue installing Windows 8 32-bit. Is this right?
If so this is not supported as per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5628. Specifically: "If you need to use a 32-bit version, you need to use Boot Camp 4 Support Software, and you must use Windows 7. 32-bit versions of Windows 8 are not supported via Boot Camp."

Will a pavilion a1737c work with windows 7 64 bit

The HP Pavilion a1737c came with OS Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 32 Bit, AMD Athlon 64x2 Dual Core processor 4200+ 2.20GHz, 2GB Ram, Nvidia GeForce 6150 LE Graphics and 320GB HD. Will this computer run Windows 7 64 Bit well.

Here are the specs for your HP Pavilion a1737c Desktop Computer. I have a HP Pavilion Media Center a1632x Desktop Computer that has very similar specs as your computer. Same chipset, though yours is socket AM2 and mine is socket 939... yours is a couple of months newer with a slightly faster CPU and slightly faster DDR2 memory. I installed 4GB of memory... upgraded from the factory 1GB. Mine runs Windows 7 64-bit in this configuration without any issues and it does it surprisingly well.
Only thing you may want to change later... is a new video graphics card, which may require a new power supply.

1. Right click volume icon on taskbar
2. Select playback devices
3. Right Click on SPDIF Interface and select Default Communications Device.
4. Connect HDMI from TV to Laptop
5. HDMI Device should be selected automatically.
When HDMI is disconnected the HDMI device is shown as disabled in playback devices whereas previously this device wasn''t shown at all.

Trouble installing cs2 upgrade in Windows 7 64 bit

I have recently bought a new computer and I am transferring programs. I have deactivated cs2 on my old computer. I am trying to install it on my new computer with OS windows 7 64 bit. The CS2 is an upgrade from adobe Photoshop 5.02. When I try to install the cs2 upgrade it asks for validation of ownership of Photoshop 5.02. It does not recognize the cd when I put it in the cd player. I have not been able to install Photoshop 5.02 onto my new computer using the cd (even when I use the compatibility trouble shooter and change settings to xp service pack 2. I have transfered the 5.02 over to my new computer via USB and can even run it. However, CS2 upgrade will not recognize 5.02 even when I browse to the program folder. Any other thoughts or suggestions would be very appreciated.

Find the registry keys for the program on your old machine, export them to a file, import them on the new system. regedit is your friend. Should be in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Adobe somewhere...

Hi there,
Specs: as per Qosmio X 300. SSD 110GB, pentium core 4 extreme, 4 Gb RAM, plenty free storage on SSD (29GB), NVidia drivers with primary being GE Force 9800 M GTS, Direct X10. there is also a note down the bottom saying that if i have linked graphic cards (whihc i do i believe there are three), that i can expect better perfomrance with some software.
Ok I aplogise from the outset, i am a layman and not that techie. K. So the issue that I upgraded recently (last week) from vista ultimate 64 bit to windows 7 64 bit. ultimate. For the main, I am reasonably happy with the outcome in most areas - except gaming that is. I have increased speed and agility and the processor is now rated at 7.2. WEI. overall the laptop is rated at 5.8. however, getting back to teh reason for writing, I have nothing negative to say about windows 7 (as compared to its predecessor) apart from wishing to resolve my game crash issue. which usually occurs about 15 mins - 20 mins into a game and comes in the form of a shutdown ? BSOD from whence the laptop reboots when prompted at on/off and wants to know if to start normally or in various safe modes. I have noticed that the laptop does become very hot at the back (around the fans) prior to teh shutdown, and i am wondering if this is an overheating issue, and how to resolve if this is the case. the only other thing i have noticed that seems untoward is that i have apparently lost a wireless jump start driver from the upgrading process which i cannot find anywherre, and may be totally unrelated to this issue anyway.
All i want to do is play the games i could play on windows vista ultimate 64 bit. these include: Sims 3, sims 3 world adventures, sims 3 ambitions, highloft end stuff, and Bioshock. Oddly enough, i have played sid meyers civillisations revolutions IV (the latest one) with no crashes, and i havent tried ANNO 1404, but fear a similar fate may await this game as some of the others.
Addditional information:
everything is as i described it above, however the screen does not go blue but black,and the laptop shuts itself down, laptop acts as if hibernating mode? (these are guesses) or some mechanism geared at preventing over heating - the back becomes very hot. the machine can be rebooted from normal mode but comes up firstly with a screen suggesting that the laptop was incorrectly shutdown, and offers options as to safe mode, normal etc. i have been starting normally with no adverse effects. This is scenario one.
scenario two ends up similarly at teh reboot stage, but gets there differently. i play the game and the screen freezes, unable to move touchpad curser, unalbe to use ctrl alt del to get up task manager. end up having to crash to reboot.
I am quite frustrated and very reluctant to mess around with things that i dont understand (dont want to make the problem worse!). I am happy to attemtpt to follow your good explicit advice.
the only other negative thing i am expereinceing is screen flicker on internet. I have changed my power mode from high performance to balanced to try to nullify the overheating issue but i now am noticing this screen flicker which is irriating and appears on keystroke, or cursor movement.
Please note well: I am a layman, not a technician! Please explain in easy to (dummy) terms! Thanks!
kind regards
