HP Pavilion DV7-6190ED Windows 7 64-Bit Recovery not working

Hello,
I just bought a new (used as showmodel) laptop at a local store.
But I'm having a problem with the recovery now.
What happened:
When I first booted my laptop and after it started windows, I saw some flickering pixels on the screen. I did some research on that and looked at the computer, and found out that the drivers were conflicting with eachother. After that problem I tried a factory restore and removing and installing some drivers, this didn't work. After that I tried restoring with a minimalistic image (sorry if I misspelled), but when the restoring was complete it said that the restoring wasn't finished. My problem now is that it won't boot Windows anymore, but directly boots into recovery manager. I'm sure that the recovery partition exists and I don't have a recovery DVD.
I would be happy if someone is able to help me.

Hi:
From what you wrote it appears you will either have to purchase a recovery DVD set by reading the info at the link below.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=bph07143&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
Or....make your own plain Windows 7 installation disk by following the instructions below (or do it temporarily until your recovery disks arrive).
If you can read the 25 character Microsoft windows 7 product key, you can download plain Windows 7 ISO files to burn to a DVD for the version of windows that came installed on your PC, and that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC's case.
Burn the ISO using the Burn ISO option on your DVD burning program and burn at the slowest possible speed your program will allow. This will create a bootable DVD.
Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.
Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below.

    Hi @arkas
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are having some graphic problems. Did you install that ATI driver from the AMD website? If so that is the problem. You have switchable graphics meaning that you have two video cards. The Intel card is designed for your everyday basic graphics processing while the ATI card is designed to handle the heavy lifting. Switchable graphics drivers are configured by the manufacturer of the notebook not the manufacturer of the graphics card.
    I would suggest that you install your AMD High-Definition Graphics Driver and your Intel High-Definition Graphics Driver. If you are looking for more information on switchable graphics this HP document Switchable Graphics on Notebooks Configured with Intel and ATI GPUs.

  • Why are my 2 W S X keys only working intermittently on my HP Pavilion DV7 running windows 7?

    Hello,
    I'm experiencing a bit of trouble with my 2 W S X keys. They only seem to work when they want to and when one stops working, the other stop working too.
    The laptop in question is a HP Pavilion dv7 running windows 7 64bit. I can't think of any changes that have occured before the change but was working fine this time last week. Not dropped it or anything.
    A note i saw elsewhere said to check if the keys work works in the BIOS. I opened the BIOS and tried the keys in there upon startup. Didn't work. Logged in left it for a bit and then as if by magic it was then working again (enough so to enable me to write this).
    Any ideas what this could be?
    Thanks in advance of any help,
    Adam

    This is definitely from malware - it happened to me last night and I checked online and found 2 many guesses. I managed to resolve it moments ago - and I'm typing with the same computer / keyboard.  It is hard to resolve but here is the link to the virus description (which does not mention the specific symptom of losing the 2 W S X keys). I lost the function immediately, and suspected malware right away: http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/entry.aspx?name=TrojanDownloader%3aJava...
    So this is how I solved it: I had Microsoft Security Essentials and it was up-to-date. However, it does not find it by itself. Spybot finds something but is unable to fix it - even upon a reboot. I installed Trend free atHome(?) virus scan - it does not find it. I installed AVG full Internet Protection - it does not find it. However, while AVG was running (a few hours) Security Essential found it - just like that! So, it appears that when the malware was adjusting itself to avoid being detected, that it was discovered by MS Security Essentials. I fixed it while AVG was running, and tested my keyboard right away. At first the x worked, then the other keys.
    This is malware - not hardware, so please stop telling people to clean or replace their keyboards.

  • Bluetooth Driver In Windows 8.1 is Not Working [Model Pavilion 15 E007TU]

    Sir Where is Th Bluetooth Driver for Windows 8.1 for the Laptop of Model Pavilion g6 pavilion 1318ax
    In Windows 8.1 Bluetooth Not Working

    Hi @iamvinod34 ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP Pavilion g6-1318ax Notebook and needing help with Bluetooth. Here is a link to fixing Bluetooth issues.
    If that does not help try looking at the section in this document Labeled: Make sure that wireless communication is turned on. Sometimes just turning on and off the Bluetooth helps.
    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. If an updated is needed this could cause this issue.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • Why can I not import pictures any more? Lightroom says "Your Lightroom 5 64-bit does not work correctly"

    Why can I not import pictures any more?
    Lightroom says "Your Lightroom 5 64-bit does not work correctly"
    Technical informations:
    PC with Windows 7 64-bit, Lightroom 5.7.1 64-bit installed.
    What I have done:
    I downloaded the newest LR 5.71 and installed it again - mode repair; without success
    I checked my PC with Norton 360: full scanning and optimizing registry
    I restarted the PC and than I installed the LR 5.7 again - repair
    Trouble 1:
    Two days ago I could work with my LR 5 and to import pictures from a SD was no problem. Now I can start LR 5 and I can watch/modify pictures, but as soon as I try to import new pictures LR 5 stops and gives the message "your LR 5 64-bit does not work correctly - searching for solution". I have not changed anything in my computer since lasttime LR 5 worked properly, only the registry was optimized by Norton 360.
    Trouble 2:

  • Command R Recovery Not Working

    Dear All, I'm a little stuck.  There's something wrong with my OSX (Mavericks 10.9.5) that is stopping me from booting in the regular way ( I get stuck @ the grey screen), Booting and using Command R does nothing (tried many times for long periods), thankfully booting and holding just Option manages to get me in (via selecting my hard drive etc) and thus i've now been able to back everything up... good... So now i run Disc Utility / Verify and am told i have disc problems and i need to reboot / command R to get to the recovery centre... hmmmm nope as the command r step is the bit thats not working.... What please do i do ??  I read about internet recovery but that seems to be triggered from within command r... I really don't want to simply reformat my hard drive and "see what happens" when i then reboot as hoping i get redirected to internet recovery seems like a crazy option.... Any guidance please ???... Basically how do i get to the recovery area without rebooting using Command R ?

    Genius !... Thank you Barney... Booted via the web, tried to repair, couldn't but let me erase my hard disc and reinstall a fresh version of OSX.... 8 minutes to go on the download then it will need a thorough update but looking good right now !... a painful day but many thanks !

  • Vista PDF Preview handler installed on Win 7 32 bit does not work.

    There is no discoverable information regarding failure to preview Adobe PDF files on Win 7 32 bit. The advice for 64 bit does not work. Adobe continues to install the Vista preview handler on my Windows 7 computer, which I suspect is the issue. Is there any way to find and install the Windows 7 32 bit handler or is there a registry hack that permits 11 to access the vista version or what? This is a repeat post, as I cannot locate the first and assume that there have been no responses, as I  have received no alerts.
