HP Pavilion DV7 1240us Express Card Slot Stopped Working

My express card slot stopped working.
The tech I was working with for the HP tuner card seems to think it is a driver or hardware issue.
Please see the email string below.
I tried all I know to get the slot to work, but I do not know which driver for it.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
Below are the emails.
Thanks, the problem is I do not know which driver it is.
I looked through the entire device manager tree, and do not know which driver controls the express slot, can you send me in the right direction?
I have an HP Pavilion DV& 1240us laptop.
Any direction would be greatly appreciated.

Without inserting another device into the slot the only thing I can think of is checking device manager for the drivers for that express slot and see if they are installed or reinstall the drivers.
If the device works on another laptop but continues to have problems on the first one then there must be something going on with the express slot on the first laptop.

No I do not, have you had this type of issue before?
Could it be missing or corrupt drivers?
Is there a way to test the slot without a device, checking drivers etc..

Yes it is connected directly, it does not even get recognized by device manager.
No default beep when plugging and unplugging.
IT USED TO WORK NO PROBLEM.
It will work in another laptop.
I am a tech by trade, so if I have to edit the registry, etc.. let me know.
Right now I am baffled, what can I do.

Hello,
Are you making sure to connect the 1500 directly into the express slot in the laptop and into a usb converter?
When it is plugged in does anything appear in device manager with a yellow mark next to it? Is it being listed under sound, video, game controllers at all?

Problem description: My tuner stopped working,I used HWclear to no avail.
The tuner works in another laptop, so it is not the hardware.
Will not make the customary sound when plugged and unplugged.
I am very PC savy and tried all I know, driver reinstall etc..
Please help.
Thanks

Hey there,
Can you explain more on this issue? I see by the emails the Express card slot is not functioning. What you are using in the card slot? Is the the HP TV Tuner card? If so, do you have another express card handy so you could test to see if it was the card or the slot? If your missing the driver you will need to use the HP Recovery CD to reinstall the TV Tuner driver.

Hp Pavilion dv7 2030 ea - overheated and stop working. Charger cable in fire

I have this notebook that almost set my house in fire.
What is wrong with HP?? How COME THEY ARE HAVING THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICES? After I send a couple of complains about how lucky I was to be at home when the cable started to burn, nobody ever replayed.
With all do respect, HP is the lowest brand. Not only for the quality of the products but most of all for the Customer service. There is no such a thing.
I have posted some pictures on the internet - f.book. Check them out and watch out. This is serious!!

Welcome to the new HP!
It seems that the entire dv7 line has overheating problems. The support people I have talked with are worthless for properly diagnosing the problem. Apparently if a machine shuts down due to excessive heating there is no error / log message to determine that overheating is actually the problem.
With as many complaints s they have had you would think they would design in a solution, but after receiving my new dv7-5000 I have determined that HP no longer has qualified designers of any kind.
I especially like the cute little design touches, all the icons that go to the ports are located on the inderside of the case, That does a lot of good!
By default the function keys are "reversed" . To use F1 you have to use a double keystroke: Fn & F1. Not only that the Fn is not a toggle. There is a little fix, you can go into the BIOS and reverse it back to normal behavour.
Some keys, like the caplock & wireless key have a little light indicator, but the Num Lock key does NOT.
These are just a few complaints....
If they can;t get these things right how can we expect them to fix an overheating problem, slow disk drives, lack of USB3, external ports without proper seperation between connectors, or screw down connections.

Satellite P300-150 PSPC4E: Cannot get Express Card slot working with XP

Hello.
I have downgraded to XP on my machine and unfortunetly I am unable to get the Express card slot to work.
The Intel chipset drivers on the Toshiba site haven't dont anything.
I am trying to get an eSata port working via the express card like I did with Vista but no joy at all.
Any ideas?
Regards
Rob

Go to Device Manager and check if the express card is installed properly, or if its reporting an error.
You should update the BIOS to the latest version. BIOS updates can sometimes fix problems like this.
And ensure you have XP Service Pack 2 or 3 installed.

Is there express card slot to install eSata ?

Hi,
Product Name: pavilion dv6
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
Product name: HP Pavilion dv6-6093ex Entertainment Notebook PC support.
Product number: LM610EA#A2N
According to the pictures of my product I posted below , there is no express card slot. So eSata is out. And as I was said, there is no real functional difference between an enclosure and a cable. Is there a very good option to have eStat port?

Thanks a lot,
As you said my HP Pavilion dv6-6093ex Entertainment Notebook PC support does NOT have [B]eSATA/USB combination port. So, I really don't see any eSata port on the case of my laptop, such as USB3, USB2 ports, and other connectors, such VGA, and HDMI, and so on.
However, my question is as long as my my HP Pavilion dv6-6093ex Entertainment Notebook PC support does NOT have [B]eSATA/USB combination port, then I don't know if my existing internal Toshiba HDD drive is connected to an eSata interface port of my laptop or not.
Moreover, What I know is that an eSata port can be a port inside a PC, and not shown in the left/right side of the case of a PC like USB3/2. As a result, if I want to convert my existing internal Toshiba HDD drive as an external HDD to be connected to a USB 3.0/2.0 port, how could I do as long as my existing internal Toshiba HDD drive has only eSata interface port, or otherwise it cannot be installed inside my laptop via eSata port.

Hi. I have a Macbook Pro Model 5,5 with one 800 firewire port. I need to create two firewire 800 ports but only have an SD card slot (this is for video interface with 2 cameras). Is this possible or do I have to have an express card slot in order to do

Hi Jessica,
No, the SD slot will not work, you need an ExpressCard/34 slot.
I do not know if it works with cameras, but with two or more HDs, if the first one has two FW ports, you can "daisy chain" one or more additional HDs from it.

High Capacity storage using Express Card slot

Hi guys,
I know this probably isn't the right forum but I couldn't find a more appropriate one.
I've got a MacBook Pro 2.16ghz Intel Core Duo and I need serious storage options!
I'm basically looking for high capacity RAID 5 storage to store/edit/capture onto. I edit mostly on SD but sometimes HDV (I own an HVR-Z1E). I've got a first edition MacBook Pro and so only have one firewire port which will be taken up when capturing by the camera.
I'm probably going to have to use the express card slot but haven't really thought about what card/wires yet. I'm wanting to spend under £1000 in total and would ideally like Raid 5 configuration to build some safety into my system (lost a project through a broken drive the other day). I'm hoping for a 2tb system or there abouts but am happy to go for less and keep plugging in more HDD later.
I was considering this la cie: http://www.lacie.com/uk/products/product.htm?pid=10850 but I'm very open to suggestion and at the moment am most concerned about data rate especially on capture. On RAID 5 is that a problem with this drive if I connected with USB2.0?
Sorry for the odd placement (I'd be happy to re-post in a more appropriate forum if that's useful).
All the best,
Dan

Workaround for the missing express card slot on the 15"

I was ready to click the buy now button for the new 15 inch and then realized that there is not an express card slot. I know there is one in the 17 inch, but that is out of my price range and try using it while flying coach.
Anyway I edit film and video. I use the express slot for ingestion of P2 data and estata cards, not to mention a Matrox MXO2.
Question: How are users with the 15 inch going to get data input speeds higher than FW400. You can edit HD, but it barks at you.
Since the only port that is open is the ethernet, can someone invent an adapter that will allow the ethernet jack to be the input for devices? I am just asking for speculation. I also assume that the SD card slot can only be used for SD. I would be afraid to have anything other than an SD card sticking out of the MAC.
Anyway, I will try to look for the last generation 15 inch and can get the new 17inch, but since I hook my current 15 inch up to an external monitor and use it for rough editing in the field, I would really love to have a 15 inch that can do what I need.
Cheers.

What I did was just got a refurbished model. Really the new version is not really upgraded from the last version in any significant manner. They moved the product line around a bit, and changed a connection. As a Mac "Genuis" told me, 1 nice thing about the refurbs is that the unit has been looked over carefully before its sent out. You'll save a few hundred dollars and you can get a 2.66 or even a 2.53 or 2.4 with the express slot and everything else pretty much the same, oops, hmmm except for the 8GB ram, that's actually a big feature. However, many say the 15's will take 6GB though not officially supported by Apple. Anyways, it's a way to get a computer with the express slot and save some money. Just a thought:)

Satellite L505-10P - Is there really an Express card slot?

Hello,
In the features of the Toshiba L505-10P, an Express card slot is mentionned. I feel a bit stupid to ask this but where is this slot? I can see something which looks like this above the Esata input but it's closed. How do you open the slot?
Thank you very much
Anaon

Hi buddy,
Tonny is right. There is no Express Card Slot on Satellite L505. It will not supported and you cant add such a slot.
But you have a Bridge Media Slot that supports memory cards like SD, SDHC, etc.
By the way, youre welcome in forum! ;)

SD Card Reader in Express Card slot

I have an iMac with a built in SD card reader and when a card is inserted, it is displayed with a bespoke drive icon showing an image of an SD card. On my MBP I use an SD card reader in the Express Card slot. Is there any way I can make cards inserted in this reader use the same icon as the iMac rather than the generic white External Drive icon?

Is it this one?

Sat Pro M70-113: Express Card slot - What for?

Hi,
can anybody tell me what is the use of express card slot on my sat pro m70-113,like what hardware can i connect to it for expansion..
Thanks..

Hi
This new expansion Express Card slot for notebooks has two sizes: Express Card/34 and Express Card/54, whose widths will be 34 mm (1/8) and 54 mm, respectively. Both are 75 mm long and 5 mm thick. The idea is the same of the PCCard, only that by using serial communication instead the parallel one, it uses less pins (only 26 pins, against 68 pins in the PC Card) and that permits the manufacture of smaller expansion boards.

Defective Tecra S11 - Need new notebook with Express-Card-Slot

My TECRA-S11-166 is faulty.
I need a new Notebook with *Express-Card-Slot* and (if its possible) RS232.
What kind of Notebook comes with a Express-Card-Slot ?

Hi
There are different Toshiba notebooks on the market and Toshiba releases new models in very short intervals.
I would recommend you to visit the Toshiba notebook product page and to compare the available series and models.
The Tecra laptops offer a business professional use and Portege series are very best in mobile computing.
The Satellite series are entertainment machines designed to provide exceptional all-round performance.

Card reader stopped working

My card reader (sd,ms,xd) quit working. It worked for two years with no problems and today it quit. I have an HP Pavilion Slimline s5220y desktop and Windows 7. When an SD card is plugged in, nothing. Autoplay is on and I am able to transfer pics manually from the card to the PC. Also, simultaneously, when I try and attach a pic to an email (gmail) only 5 library folders are displayed out of the 50+ folders in my My Pictures library. This seemed to happen about the same time as Google wanted me to use Drive; could there be a Google gremlin at work here? I'm not much of a computer guy so I need simple answers, please.

Hello larrydayton,
Your card reader stopped working correctly.
Since you’re having multiple problems at the same time, I’d suggest a system restore.
This will take the system back to when everything was working correctly without affecting your personal files.
Here is a link on how to do a restore.
Let me know how everything goes
Have a good day.
