Hp pavilion dv7 6197sl with windows 8.1 and drivers

HI. i upgrade my laptop to windows 8.1, tried to install all driver for all the intel and amd components from hp support site, but most of them are only compatible with windows 7.
Is there anyting i can do make these drivers working?
thanks.

Hi there @Carvin00 
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you are looking for drivers for your notebook, for Windows 8.1. Unfortunately that model was only ever sold in configurations with Windows 7, and so HP has not made any customized drivers for it.
See the following which offers a few options: What if I Don't See My Operating System?
Other than that you can either return to Windows 7, and the supported drivers from HP, or if you really want to use Windows 8.1 on this machine, you can use the options in that link. It is certainly possible to find drivers for Windows 8.x, but there is no guarantee that those more generic drivers will work with the set of hardware in the notebook.

  • Touch pad light doesn't respond to fn spacebar on Pavilion dv7-7012nr with Windows 7 Home premium 64

    Touch pad light doesn't respond to fn spacebar on Pavilion dv7-7012nr with Windows 7 Home premium 64.  Bought it new from HP.com in October and it has never worked.

    Hi,
    I belive that action OR f5 is for the backlit keyboard, not the touchpad. For the touchpad (my machine is also a dv7-70xx) you need to touch the switch (rapidly twice) which is on the left corner of the touchpad. The following image shows where is the light (yellow circle) and where is the swich (red rectangular):
    Hope this helps.

  • Problem on HP Pavilion dv7-6c90el with Windows 8 Pro x64 on Video Card

    good evening,
    I just finished installing Windows 8 x64 from Win7 Pro, I was able to find all drivers for my notebook, but I have problems with the video card settings.
    My laptop is a HP Pavilion dv7-6c90el with two video cards, one run by the processor because it seems to me to be a part, and the other normally installed on the PC.
    The cards are read by Windows as:
    device 1: Intel HD Graphics 3000
    device 2: AMD Radeon HD 6700m Series (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM v1.20)
    the problem resides in the fact that the device should be only one support per second, or deactivated, as it will not. The video card AMD should be set to 1, and the intel 2. Only if I go to the "Device Manager" to disable the intel card, Windows works as if it were not present any video card, also installed driver is not correct because the card is an AMD Radeon HD7690M XT, the problem is that even if I uninstall this driver then always comes back. I also tried to download AMD Catalyst in the latest version, but can not find the card. It 's like the Windows is imposed only use the device 1, which, however, I can not disable the BIOS, because there is no voice. I note that under Windows 7 had no problem.
    I ask you to help me because I need the performance of the video card for my work.
    This question was solved.

  • My HP Pavilion p7-1439 with Windows 8 will not add Bluetooth Devices.

    My HP Pavilion p7-1439 with Windows 8 will not add Bluetooth Devices.  I ran all available updates using HP Assistant. The BT devices work with Laptop, iPhone, Surface and Ipad but not the HP Desktop.  I can access the Add Device button and the system searches but never finds any BT devices.  Any thoughts?

    Hi NumberTumbler,
    I would like to help you with your Bluetooth issue. 
    In this document Understanding Bluethooth Wireless Technology go to the section "Setting up a Bluetooth Device" for detailed information about setting up  Bluetooth devices on your computer.
    Let me know if this helps or if you need any further assistance.

  • Pavilion dv5 - 1217AX with Windows 8 - multiple booting and crashing issues

    I have a Pavilion dv5 - 1217AX with Windows 8 operating system. It was upgraded from Vista to windows 8 last year and it worked really very well for about 1 year. Here are the issues I am facing these days
    1. When powered on - Caps lock and Num lock LEDs keep flashing twice and the sequence keeps repeating - I checked the error code on some forums and it sounded like BIOS issue so I flashed the BIOS F38 again (SP46501) but it didn't help. I also thought it could be a memory issue so I removed the memory module and cleaned the slots and fixed the modules again but no luck. I also tried running the laptop using only one module, tried both the modules one by but no changes in error code. Then I thought it could be a toy bettery issue so replaced the toy batter that fits on the motherboard but no luck. I have also tried booting up removing the laptop battery pack but no luck.
    So how does it boot now? - Once powered on I keep getting Caps lock Num lock LED flashing issues every time. Then I power off using power on/off button on laptop around 15 times or more then the laptop somehow boots up. There is no fixed pattern, sometimes it boots after 15 attempts, sometimes 50 attempts.
    Whats happenes after booting? - Sometimes the screen goes completely blank without any error message on the screen. Sometimes Windows 8 crashes and laptop restarts, when it restarts I never see LED flashing issues (surprising). It crashes when I am watching some videos or playing some games, so looks like ATI Radeon driver issue (driver is 8.970.100.7000 for HD 3400 display card).
    Let me know if there are any suggestion to fix the botting and crashing issues faced.

    Hi Expertit ,
    At first sight ,seems to be a boot issiu.Did you thry this?
    Booting into the Windows 8 setup, select “Repair your computer” in the bottom part of the window, then “Troubleshoot” and “Advanced options”. Here I was given a good reminder of another cool Windows 8 feature. If you have a restore point created you can go back to that working copy of the OS without losing your data.
    So the first thing you will want to try is the Automatic Repair.
    If that fixes your boot problem, you had it easy and go on to create a restore point for another time you are out of luck. If Windows is unable to fix your issue, read on.
    Go back to the Advanced options and choose the Command Prompt. Going for the next easiest way to fix the problem, enter the following four commands into the prompt:
    bootrec /fixmbr
    bootrec /fixboot
    bootrec /scanos
    bootrec /rebuildbcd
    After receiving a success confirmation. Close the CMD window and restart your PC.
    If you are booted into Windows, excellent! If not, let us know , so we can try some more solutions.
    2.If your video crashes , it is probably wrong Catalyst settings.Right click on screen , open Catalyst control settings , set it to high (Radeon) performance.
    Expecting your next post.

  • HP Pavilion dv7-4083cl (w/ Intel Core i5 and ATI GPU): Which is its normal temperature?

    Hello,
    I have a question about HP Pavilion dv7-4083cl (w/ Intel Core i5 and ATI GPU):
    Which is its normal temperature?
    Environment: 24 °C (Celcius)
    HWMonitor and Real Temp agrees with the numbers find below.
    The two CPU Cores starts at 37 °C and in about an hour are at 53 °C, with CPU usage under 10%.
    The GPU starts at 34 °C and easly goes to 57 °C, with some peaks at 72 °C
    Regarding "Hewlett-Packard 144B": (under low/idle CPU usage)
    TZ01: starts at 40 °C and very fast goes to 55 °C or 65 °C (and more, under CPU load)
    PCH starts at 59 °C and very fast goes to 76 °C (and stays there)
    GMCH: starts at 40 °C and very fast goes to 55 °C or 65 °C
    ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 (TMPIN0): Starts at 34 °C and easily goes and stays at 57-58 °C
    Note: I'm also using a cooler (two fans, under its base)
    If I run Real Temp (v. 3.6) "Sensor Test", the cores goes up to 100 °C , and even a bit more.
    Which is the normal / expected behavior / operational range?
    Steady PCH at 76 °C is it normal?
    TZ01, GMCH at 55 - 65 °C is it normal?
    i5 Cores at 55 °C is it normal? (and easily going to 70 °C or more)
    GPU (ATI) at 57 °C is it normal?
    is it normal to climb up to 100-105 °C under a 5 minutes high CPU usage operation?
    Thanks!

  • I have an HP-Pavilion Vista PC with MS Office 2007 and Service Pack 2. Each time I try to save a Wo

    I have an HP-Pavilion Vista PC with MS Office 2007 and Service Pack 2.  Each time I try to save a Word or Excel document I get the “Not Responding” message.  The “Word is saving……” bar at the bottom does not show any progress.  On clicking the document I get a faded version even when in Safe Mode.  Somehow the document appears on the Desktop where I tried to save it.  On trying to open the saved document, even as administrator, I get the following ”File in Use” message:
    “The ….docx is locked for editing by….” and I am asked three questions including:
    “Do you want to open a Read Only copy” yet on clicking “Yes” I am able to edit the same document.
    On trying to save to a different location I get the message:
    “Your autocorrect file MSO 1033.ad could not be saved. The file may be read only or you may not have permission to modify this file.”
    The same message stating FILE12\1033\MSO.ACL MSO 1033ad recurs with new Excel documents.
    How can I correct this problem?
    PS
    Worse still, the HP Advisor icon that appears on startup does not load successfully while showing the message: “Access to the path Hewlett-Packard\HD Advisor is denied”.
    What can I do about it?

  • Error -54 with windows 8.1 and iOS 7.1.2

    I tried adding two albums to my iTouch 5 with windows 8.1 and recently updated my iTouch's OS to version 7.1.2. I keep getting the error -54, saying it couldn't be synced but it still keeps sycing and comes up a lot. I tried restoring my iTouch and restarting my laptop, can anyone help?

    That's weird. Here it is in full.
    It may be too late for you to try what I did, but by the looks of it, it will be viewed many times going forward.
    I noticed I was having the problem with songs that had been in WMA format but converted by iTunes. From what I read, this error is actually about permission issues for the files. I tried changing the permissions on the directory and cascade them to each file, but that didn't work. Reading more, one user got around the problem by zipping the problem files and use the files from the zip to sync. That worked for them. I tried that and it didn't work. Then I just figured there is some residual setting either on the iPad or in iTunes that was still hosing me.
    I'd gotten pretty annoyed by this time so I figured I have to start with a clean slate. I reset the iPad to factory condition. I then went to windows restore and selected the restore point prior to installing iTunes. I then went thru the painful process of setting everything up again. Once I was installed and let the music be added to iTunes, I went thru and "unchecked" everything I didn't care if it went to the iPad. That was frustrating since I didn't actually have any check boxes showing. Since I was going to exclude whole albums, I did a right click on one in iTunes and there was an option in the context menu to uncheck the box. I did this for all the unwanted albums At this point, I connected the iPad and it was recognized. I went to the page to set up the syncing options. I tried to do it manually, but that was going to be a huge pain so I did the automatic sync and check the box to NOT sync unchecked items.
    Finally, it started to work. I still got about 15 of the error -54 messages. I just clicked it away and the syncing continued.Since I had nearly 2000 songs transfer, I don't know which caused the error but I now have music on my iPad.
    It's a lot of work, but I finally got the results I wanted. Hope this helps.

  • Lync Server 2010 conference not working with Windows 8.1 and IE 10

    Hello,
    The problem is that whenever a Windows 8.1 user tries to join a Lync server 2010 conference using Internet Explorer 10 (or 11, tried that too) the user can't join the conference. If the conference is created by a Lync server 2013 user joining works fine.
    When using Lync 2010 client we get the following error in the client: "error id 87 source id 7".
    When using Lync 2013 client we end up with a blank conversation window.
    There are no traces in server log, client log or event log.
    Below is a set of use cases that may help you to understand what is the problem scenario. Each of these works or does not work with both Lync 2010 and Lync 2013 client.
    - Lync server 2010 conference, windows 7, Chrome, Firefox, IE 10 or 11 --> Works.
    - Lync server 2010 conference, windows 8.1, IE 10 or 11 --> Does not work.
    - Lync server 2010 conference, windows 8.1, Chrome or Firefox --> Works.
    - Lync server 2013 conference, windows 8.1, Chrome, Firefox, IE 10 or 11 --> Works.
    It does not help to add the meet address to IE compatibility list (Compatibility View Settings).
    If i press F12 in IE and change the document mode of the meet page to IE 9 version then i can join meetings with Windows 8.1 and IE 10. Unfortunately i cannot make that as a default setting for the meet website.
    Any ideas on how to get Lync server 2010 meetings working with Windows 8.1 and IE 10 or 11?
    IE is the company default browser. Windows 8.1 is not a default operating system but we have increasing number of Windows 8.1 computers in our environment (mainly directors).

    According to your description, it is hard to tell whether the issue is related with IE or Lync Server 2010 or both.
    Compare the log when Lync client on Window 8.1 with IE 10 or IE 11 join Lync server 2010 conferencing and Lync Server 2013 conferencing.

  • HT1349 I just purchased  new PC with windows 8.1 and downloaded Itunes, but when I try to add my Music Library from the back up dvd's I created off my old computer it doesn't automatically start the back up process like it did before. How can I "restore"

    I just purchased a new PC with windows 8.1 and downloaded new itunes, but when I try to "restore" my music library from the DVDS i made from my old pc it doesn't automatically restore my library as it used to.  How do I restore my music library from DVDS?

    Thanks but I already did read all of the help notes, which aren't very helpful for this.  I did find out the problem- Apple.....they evidently changed one of the major upsides to their old software- being able to back up your entire library onto dvd's- so you can longer do that or restore from the dvds created from older versions of itunes.  I suspect greed is at play in that Apple now wants you to pay $24.95 per year to use a "cloud" service where they back it up for you.  I can buy a lifetime supply of back up dvds for one year's worth of cloud.  So I am now looking into other music software as I am Appled-out.  There is no reason for them to take away the back up portion of the software other than to sell you thrir cloud service.  As we have already given them a ton of money for 5 Ipods and a bunch of music, I think we have contributed enough.  Time to look to solutions outside of the Apple money tree.  But thank you for reading and replying.
