HP Pavilion Elite E9240F randomly becomes unresponsive.

Hello,
I've had this computer for only about 1 or 2 years and it recently started to have this unresponsiveness problem. I'm able to move around my mouse and if I'm talking to people on Teamspeak or Skype I'm able to still talk to them but I can't open or close anything. There are no hardware changes but I noticed it started to happen when I updated my graphics card from Steam. Also it's random, I can be doing nothing and if I try to open Google Chrome it won't open until the computer becomes responsive again. I really need help! 
Thank you for your time and I hope this can be resolved!

Hi..
This could be due to the incompatibility of your desktop and the graphics card.
Check out for the motherboard specs and the graphics card if they are compatible or no.
Also there is a CODE PURPLE scene in all HP PC's, where if the PC's would lock itself or become slow if the original configuration of the desktop is changed.
Also this could be due the power supply your graphics card is shharing from the motherboard.
If the motherboard does not support the graphics card the PC would work slow because your graphics card is exceeding the power capacity.
Also this could be due to the high usage of the PC. You can increase the system processing memory (RAMs), and the PC would get some more memory to divide the work on.
Clicking Kudos! Is a nice way to say Thank You if this helped you or resolved your problem. Also " Accept It As A Solution" so that others get a benefit from it..

  • My trackpad and keyboard randomly become unresponsive on MBP Retina

    I just got my Macbook Pro with Retina a week ago. Its the newest model that just came out the week I got it. Its a 13 Inch. I noticed when I am using it, the trackpad and kayboard randomly become unresponsive for sometime. I have to close it and wait for it to start working again. Do you have any idea what the problem might be. Should I contact Apple?

    I went through this with my old Late 2008 Macbook Uni when I installed Kingston Value RAM.
    Take your new RAM out - install your old RAM back - do a PRAM reset and see if your keyboard and trackpad are working again.
    Once that's done - turn your Macbook off - install the new RAM - if keyboard and trackpad are unresponsive again - install different brand of RAM.
    I ended up intalling Crucial RAM in mine.
    Good luck.

  • Why does my Macbook pro keyboard and trackpad randomly become unresponsive forcing restart in OSX Mavericks?

    Randomly when using OSX Mavericks, since installing yesterday, my mid-2012 Macbook Pro keyboard and trackpad freeze and become unresponsive.
    The computer is still running whatever I was doing, the computer does not crash, i just cannot control it and the only way I have found as a fix is to restart.
    This never happened in Mountain Lion.
    Can anyone help?

    Very similarly.
    Mac Mini late 2012. i7 CPU, 16GB ram. 12GB unused.
    After installing Mavericks, it seems to grind my system to a halt. It is still running (I can move the cursor and activity monitor updates processes) but every application I try to launch results in a colorful waiting sign. It even can take a minute or more before an application shows "any" sign of starting.
    I tried to open a terminal session (so I could manually kill a process) but the terminal session did not even process. It timed out after 5 minutes.
    Acitivity monitor shows 90-95% idle and I have no idea what's causing it.
    I have already rebuild disk and reset permissions (all seemed fine) 3 times.
    I've rebooted over 8 times since last night. I cannot use my Mac anymore reliably.
    Please help.

  • Keyboard and trackpad freeze and randomly become unresponsive

    I've got a MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2011) running Mac OS X 10.8.2.
    Since a few weeks ago at random intervals my keyboard and trackpad become permanently unresponsive. I don't recall any particular cause or change that would have caused this to start happening.
    What happens is that the trackpad and keyboard will stop functioning completely. The computer, display etc. would continue to function properly:
    The clock keeps ticking.
    If music were playing it would continue etc.
    Internet connectivity (via an ethernet cable or WiFi) continues to work as well (a download will continue, and even resume if I disconnect and reconnect the ethernet cable).
    Presssing the power button will bring up the shutdown dialog as usual (but I can't use it, obviously, so a forced shutdown needs to be performed instead by holding down the power button longer).
    .. but the keyboard and trackpad are rendered inoperable, as if they were no longer connected.
    I've made no progress in finding out what could possibly be the cause of this. A few observations:
    It has never happened while not using the keyboard (e.g. watch a DVD with TV series for a few hours, and afterwards the keyboard would always be fine).
    It always happens while actively typing (e.g. while in the middle of replying to an e-mail).
    It is not a temporary problem, the keyboard and trackpad will not become responsive again after some time (the computer isn't particulary occupied with calculating something big, no beachball and no busy mechanical noises).
    It does not happen progessively. It works fine and snappy one second, and I'm touching a dead keyboard a split second later.
    I tried connecting a USB keyboard but that doesn't seem to work either (I'm mentioning this since some of the linked threads below close with that as a solution).
    Possibly related (although I haven't found anything in these threads):
    Keyboard causes trackpad to not function properly
    Keyboard and trackpack freeze
    Keyboard and Trackpad Unresponsive
    MacBook Pro Keyboard & TrackPad freeze! Totally Unresponsive!
    MacBook Pro inbuilt Keyboard and Trackpad freeze when not connected to bluetooth devices?
    I've crawled through some log files in /var/log (via the shell and through Console.app) and found a couple things that may be relevant, although they seem unrelated. Etiher way, I was surprised by what I found. All sorts of errors with regards to Bluetooth and USB stuff. I'm not aware of using either. I haven't used bluetooth in years and though I sometimes charge an iPod by USB, I haven't had any problems with that, and this keyboard/trackpad freeze has also happened on sessions where I started the laptop and never even touch the USB ports in the time leading up to the freeze.
    Sample log from when it happened. It last happened at 21:04:xx:

  • Help! my GS3 keyboard randomly becomes unresponsive

    It's fine for days or weeks then randomly locks up...either the keyboard doesn't even appear or its just unresponsive. I've googled the topic but seems like i'm all alone with this one. Does anybody have a solution? I've downloaded another keyboard app which works right now but the return and menu buttons also act up periodically.

        Hi RJBoud
    That's a very odd situation. Let's look into this together. The issue may be caused by a third party application. Please try powering the device in safe mode and retest. Here's how:http://bit.ly/Wvg2zd
    Please let me know if the issue persists. I would be happy to further troubleshoot.
    Thank you

  • Apps randomly become unresponsive

    Shortly after I upgraded to Mountain Lion, I started having this issue. Apps giving me the beach ball cursor at random times. Example being Firefox, when I mouse over a link or click another tab. Another example being with World of Warcraft, trying to talk to an NPC. These are just 2 of many I've encountered.
    I tried doing repair permissions and this comes up:
    Warning: SUID file"System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/A RDAgent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
    From searching around, I read it's something that can be ignored. With all my problems though, I can't help but think it's the cause as it's the only "bad" thing I can find. I've restarted. I've repaired permissions 2-3 times. Can't figure out anything else to fix it.
    Help?

    The examples you're giving us are all third party apps. FF, WOW...
    Any issues with Apple apps?
    Have you tried the apps in your Guest account? That might help us isolate the cause or it may be because some of the software is not compatible
    http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    The line in Permissions you point to is not an error, merely a notification that those permissions have been modified.
    Nothing to do with your issue. It's not a Permissions problem.

  • HP Pavilion Elite e9240f won't boot -- beep codes

    When I try to boot my hp desktop I am getting beep codes.  As best I can tell it's one long then 8 short.
    I have not replaced or changed any hardware or software.
    I have used compressed air to blow out all the fans I saw.
    It's been an intermittent error that I thought was related to heat.  I'd turn it off, let it sit for the night, and it would work in the morning.
    The last time it worked, I was wondering about a virus so I ran an avast full system scan.  It found one file in the 1 tb drive (sorry, don't remember name, just that it was a .tmp file) and it said to move it to chest I believe so I did that.  It then suggested doing a boot scan so it restarted and has since given the same beep code errors.
    I have unattached the cables for the cd and dvd drives, as well as the hard drive, and I still get the error.  I've removed the video card and still get the error.  I've held the power button down so that the led light inside the computer shuts down.  I seem to get fans to run but nothing else.
    I made a system repair disk from another Windows 7 Professional (which I think this one is) and that won't work (I can't seem to boot into that) because it doesn't seem to get to an HP screen to boot into the cd.
    Thoughts?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    This is the HP troubleshooting link for POST error codes.
    You could try reseating memory modules or removing one at a time and testing for a successful POST.

  • Keyboard and trackpad randomly become unresponsive

    Every few hours or so my keyboard and/or trackpad just stop working. Once I either shut my computer to put it to sleep or restart it, it's fine for a few more hours. Therefore I don't think it's a hardware issue (I've tried pressing on the orange cable underneath the battery and that doesn't seem to do anything). Anybody have any suggestions?

    Very similarly.
    Mac Mini late 2012. i7 CPU, 16GB ram. 12GB unused.
    After installing Mavericks, it seems to grind my system to a halt. It is still running (I can move the cursor and activity monitor updates processes) but every application I try to launch results in a colorful waiting sign. It even can take a minute or more before an application shows "any" sign of starting.
    I tried to open a terminal session (so I could manually kill a process) but the terminal session did not even process. It timed out after 5 minutes.
    Acitivity monitor shows 90-95% idle and I have no idea what's causing it.
    I have already rebuild disk and reset permissions (all seemed fine) 3 times.
    I've rebooted over 8 times since last night. I cannot use my Mac anymore reliably.
    Please help.

  • My aluminum keyboard is becoming unresponsive.

    Recently, my keyboard for my Mac Pro 1,1 has randomly become unresponsive.  Disconnecting and reconnecting it resolves the problem for several minutes, then it becomes unresponsive again.  This started occurring a couple of days ago, but has never happened before.  Nothing configuration wise has changed.  I've already performed a disk/permission verification and repair with no success.  Any suggestions would be greatly apprecicated.

    Linc, I did some testing and verified this only occurs when plugging in my iPhone 4 - the keyboard will intermittently die out and eventually become unavailable.  Unplugging the iPhone solves the problem.  Did Apple not supply enough power to the USB system to charge my iPhone and use a keyboard at the same time?  Those are the only two devices connected...

  • Random Keyboard Unresponsive

    Hello, I just got my Macbook a couple days ago and I've noticed already a couple times where the keyboard randomly becomes unresponsive, usually for a minute or under and for no apparent reason. I opened other programs such as Textedit, Finder, and Safari while this was happening and it still wouldn't respond. But then it would come back and be fine. Should I wait and see, or send it back or?? Any help would be appreciated. Also, this usually happens when I'm using Safari, but the keyboard doesn't work in any programs while it's happening.

    Have you done a software update since you got the macbook? There was an update addressing this problem a few weeks back, and I think it solved this problem for most users.

  • Hp pavilion elite m9690a turns off input signal randomly after boot up

    I have a pavilion elite m9690 running off of windows vista which recently (there have been no changes) begun switching off all input signals to the screen. Although the pc activation light and the pc are still on it then does not respond to the mouse, keyboard or switching source from hdmi to VGA leaving no input signals to the screen. When turned off then on again it regains input signal to the screen. The timing can be during startup or as late as 15 minutes of operation. I have plugged my l laptop into the screen and this never switches off on hdmi or VGA. I have made no changes to the pc but had some issues with heat a month ago.

Well it's not!! and I don't know enough to fix it myself so thats why I paid you a hundred dollars to do it for me! haha thanks for any help!

  • Pavilion Elite e9180f freezes, crashes, BSOD

    I am one of the many unhappy customers who bought this piece of junk (Pavilion Elite e9180f) and waited too long to return it because in my naivete, I thought it was some kind of simple software issue.  Nope!  It's definitely something wrong with the hardware, because the freezes and crashes have been happening since day 1, right when I took the thing out of the box.
    Yeah, the system is fast and runs Windows Vista great, when it's actually WORKING, which is usually only guaranteed for about the first 5 minutes after you power the system on and boot windows.  After that, it's just buying time before it crashes again.  Forget trying to get anything done on this computer.  Forget about asking this PC to play a video or music file without the files "stuttering" during playback.  Even my 7 year old Sony Vaio which is running XP can handle playing an MP3 file without stuttering and crashing!
    Like everyone else, the freezes and crashes happen either one of two ways:
    1) The machine begins to "stutter", stutter more, then freeze/crash.  When I say stutter, I mean I move the mouse, the pointer graphic will hesitate on the screen and lag behind.  If you start to play a video or music file, this manifests in an audible "stutter".  The stuttering gets worse and worse as minutes pass until eventually it freezes for good, blasting that 1/50th second moment of audio into infinity.  You have to reboot immediately if you don't want to go deaf or be driven mad.
    2)  I will be doing nothing at the time (example, I close all programs out and leave Windows sitting on the main desktop screen), I'll walk out of the room for a minute, then come back and find I can't move the mouse. This system will often lock-up without any warning!
    Sometimes I'll get a BSOD or error screen, sometimes I won't (in which case your only option is to do a cold re-boot.)  When I do get the BSOD, the error is ALWAYS the "did not get a response from the secondary processor" yada yada.  I wish HP would just admit they shipped this model out with a bad processor/motherboard/whatever and do an official recall.  I have owned PCs for the last 13 years and this is the worst and most consistently disappointing experience I have ever had.
    What is the hardware issue?  Which part is the lemon part?  The motherboard?  The processor?  The BSODs seem to indicate a bad processor.  I do have the Pegatron Truckee version 1.03 motherboard.  Is that the problem?
    P.S.  I have contacted HP on many occasions about this, literally stayed on the phone for hours with "customer support" (according to one HP rep, 80% of their customer service reps are based outside of the United States...good luck getting any "technical" help from them) to no avail.  I did talk to one nice tech support guy in Canada who said "it sounds like your unit has a bad processor", so he had HP send me a box to ship my unit to their repair center so they can replace the processor.  However, I have also had HP reps tell me it could be anything from the memory to the hard drive.  Multiple HP reps claimed to me that they have "received no complaints" about this system.  One guy told me he "thought he got an email last week" regarding "something" about the system, but couldn't remember what it was and he put me on hold while he searched for the email.  He never found it.  What a joke.
    EDIT:  Just to clarify, the crashing issue has been happening since day one, but initially I thought it was an issue with Vista.  I had never owned or used Vista before, so I thought maybe Vista was just unstable.  Nope.  I know several people who own Vista and have never experienced these issues.  I have downloaded every update from Microsoft/Windows Update.  I have upgraded to Vista SP2 with all the latest drivers and software for all of my hardware.  No luck.  It is definitely a hardware issue.  Thank god HP's warranty is good for 1 year (I bought my Elite in July).

    Unfortunately I have to add my disastrous encounter with HP's E9180F a true lemon HP is selling. I must take some responsibility for not carefully researching this model before I purchased, but I trusted the HP name and got stung- big time.
    The scoundrel  :
    HP and its Pavilion Elite e9180f
    Windows 7 64bit
    motherboard - Pegatron  Truckee ver 1.03
    BIOS ver  5.22Intel Core i7 920 @ 2.67GHz
    Memory 9206 MB Ram   
    As so many others have reported my HP E9180f started locking up and going to BSOD right out of the box. My first freeze-up came when I was doing the Windows update process. At first I didn't think much about it but I started getting random freezes a couple time a day. At that point I went online to see if others had experienced the same problem and perhaps had a fix. What I found was very troubling;  I found extensive documentation describing my exact problems and what was really horrifying was the reports of how ridiculous HP's help services were treating people with the problem. At first I didn't totally believe what I was reading on HP's own customer forum; I do now.
    ·         I've went through the total recovery process three times now, HP techs have spent hours remotely running my computer, (yes it did lock up on them to)
    ·         I had to upgraded the BIOS. (HP tech tried, said he had, but he hadn't)
    ·         I was directed to clear the BIOS (luckily for me I had the tools
    ·         Updated all drivers again and again.
    ·         Next I was asked to remove the video card, memory, and motherboard power cable and reseat them. I declined because I didn't want to give HP any reason to void my HP 2 year House Call Care Pack which covers this unit. When I invited HP to send a service tech out to perform these tasks, they said that house call only covers part replacement, we weren't replacing a part. I couldn't believe what I was told. Are you feeling my frustration?  
    Keep in mind that each time HP requests that I make changes, they then ask me to test the system, which I did and each time with the same result, BSOD
    I'm heading into my fifth week of working with HP to fix this problem. and I still haven't even been able to get my case moved up to a senior case manager, what a joke HP's help process is.
     One conversation I loved was;
    HP tech: "I'll have a senior case manager call you within 24 hours."
    Skeptical me: "What should I do if I don't get a call?"
    Silence, no response.
    Me again: "What should I do if I don't get a call?"
    HP tech: "That's an impossibility."
    Guess what? The impossibility became reality (I bet you guessed) .
    HP's last stall tactic was to have me fax them my proof of purchase and invoice and call back in 24 hours. Where have I heard that before? Apparently nothing can go forward until they receive it. So I faxed them the stuff within 10 minutes, and when I called back 24 hours later, guess what, you're right it wasn't on their system yet. I asked couldn't I be escalated to a senior case manager  (it's apparent that only a senior case manager can do anything). "No," was the tech's reply, "call back again later".
    Please if anyone out there knows the secrete to getting a senior case manager, or an HP tech support number here in the U.S. so I can get this thing fixed I'd love to know it.
    Fast becoming HP never again.      

  • HP Pavilion Elite m9258 will not boot up. Won't recognise USB ports -mouse keys etc

    HP Pavilion Elite M9258
    70 percent of the time will not boot up.
    Computet light is on. DVD drive will open and shut. Fans sound slightly quieter when this happens.
    The monitor comes on but the light goes to  orange. When I press any of the monitor buttons, it flashes a message for a few seconds telling me it is in sleep mode and invites me to move the mouse or press a key to continue
    The problem is that the USB ports are not recognised by the computer at this point. The infra red mouse light flashes briefly when the computer is switched on then goes and remains off. The keyboard is also unresponsive.
    The sole fix that  I can find is to repeatedly turn the computer off and on again. After 70 -100 attempts ( over 4 to 6 hours) it suddenly boots up normally. The problem began a year ago and is increasing in duration and severity.

They left Advanced system care, ccleaner and superantispyware on my computer and I was just wondering if they could be conflicting with my paid norton internet security? I have become very flustrated because first off I paid a lot of money for this computer and it's not even 2 years old yet and I also have paid HP a lot of money to fix it and all the guy from India could say to me was "I have been working on this computer and it hasn't froze up so the problem must be fixed!" Well it's not!! and I don't know enough to fix it myself so thats why I paid you a hundred dollars to do it for me! haha thanks for any help!

  • HP PAVILION ELITE e9120Y

    Hi,
    My HP PAVILION ELITE e9120Y was constantly crashing, freezing up. And I tried to do a restore, that never worked since day 1.
    I tried reformatting the hard drive, first by using the F11 key, then the restoration disks, and niether work.
    sometimes I get a message, "reboot and select proper boot device - or insert boot media in selected boot device, and press a key". 
    Other time I get a message error #1002.
    I have a 3 year service black tie protection plan, but if its not the hard drive...then it will cost me over and above what I paid for the insurance. I am already past the 1 yr manufacturers warrenty.

    I have the same...DId you upgrade to windows 7 and if you did the best thing to do is reinstall WIndows 7? Do a clean install.  Just insert the disc before windows boots, may have to change boot priority under bios shows key to press to enter bios, after windows 7 installed key may be another F something not F9 or F7 like it says, just have to try til you get to it.  Make the DVD/CD drive boot priority instead of HDD.  Can't remember if you hit the key to skip or use the disc.  Its one way or the other.  Doing a clean install will wipe everything...but is well worth it.  I do not have any lockups or freezes like I used to.  Windows Vista was bad...I got the free upgrade when I bought mine and Windows 7 was terrible at release I had blue screens of death, and freezes like you said...even in Vista.  Solution was months later with updates...unfortunately windows 7 was still messed up so a clean install fixed it.  
    So get a hard drive copy files you need then proceed with the clean install.  Time consuming but worth it.  Also I do not recommend updating the BIOS if you think that will fix it you can try.  I've tried reinstalling the BIOS over again thinking it might re-write whatever got messed up.  All I know is the CPU fan and motherboard voltages are messing up a lot...I used a software program to give readings and it shows it changes CPU and fan speeds randomly like reving up a car.  I've requested older BIOS to fix it, but HP won't give it and can't find older ones anywhere.  I've complained also...my warranty expired just a few days before this BIOS update.  Don't recommend 5.08 BIOS.  
    Also a few things to note...HP power supply isn't powerful to use all USB's at once...bought a USB Hub with multiple ports and a separate power supply adapter that plugs into it.  PC can be off but charges USB devices.  Mine crashed with too many USB plugs.  
    Also upgraded to Seagate Hybrid drive 500GB really fast now since its part Solid state drive...now 1TB is storage.  
    I use system mechanic software as well...works wonders for the PC($20 a yr,virus protection in it too)...just be sure to disable Security vulnerabilites as repair option or hide as problem...gave me all sorts of visual problems, apparently media players are hackable and need to be blocked according to the software.  All fixed once I found out what did it... Other then that I have my system running really, really well, besides the TERRIBLE BIOS UPDATE HP GAVE ME AFTER WARRANTY AND HASNT FIXED.  

  • Photoshop CS6 - Quick Selection tool freezes Photoshop/ becomes unresponsive for minutes

    After only two selections the tool becomes unresponsive for minutes.
    I'm on a 2.6 Ghz retina MacBook Pro, 16 Gb RAM, and this in connection with an SSD should make this tool very good to use. Operating system: OS X 10.8 "Mountain Lion", latest update.
    Unfortunately, it seems to develop some kind of overload, during which you cannot use Photoshop at all. No commands like "undo selection", "quit", "close file" are accepted.
    There is no beachball, no other signs that Photoshop is working on something.
    Hint: it seems to happen when you option select (subtract from an existing selection).
    Hint: the freeze can be shortened by a tool switch (has to be through clicking on a tool, keyboard commands are frozen as well)
    Hint: the "subtract selection" move that caused the freeze appears after Photoshop comes back to life after a couple of minutes. The subtraction to the selection seems to be random, makes no sense, and is not the regular function of the tool.
    First step after this freeze would be to undo the last selection, and continue working.
    If you do several "add to selection" moves, they add up in a kind of waiting line. If you do the subtract from selection move, this doesn't work, and the freeze happens.
    So far, I have not noticed the freeze when adding to a selection. Adding to a selection was always quick and instant. The bug must sit in the "subtract from selection" code.
    On most freezes, the ants continue walking, I just had one (again with subtracting selection) where even the ants stopped walking.
    I don't think it has anything to do with Photoshop working. I have used the quick selection tool regularly under CS5 on my old machine (which was a museum piece), and while I had to wait sometimes, it was never ground to a freeze/halt like the quick selection tool under CS6.

    Did this work before, or has it always been this way?  Not a bug or everyone with your system would be complaining.  Have not seen that.
    If it has always worked that way a reset of preferences will probably not do anything.
    A reset of preferences will reset to factory defaults, so you will have to reset to saved workspace.
    Do you have at least 10% free disk space?
