HP Pavilion TS 14-n020se Notebook PC

I bought a hp laptop Product number: F0F94EA#ABV from Dubai.
The laptop crashed after updating to windows 8.1 along with updates provided by hp.
On visiting the HP service center at Gutahalli,Bangalore , India as per the information at HP web site, I was redirected to another location at Indiranagar since the Gutahalli service center catered only to out of warranty products.
But they too could not provide a solution for my problem and advised that the best solution  was clean wipe format of my hard disk/system, including wiping the recovery drive, however they will not be able re-commission it in India even if the product is covered under international warranty and insist that I seek support and  order for a recovery disk from Dubai
Despite of having insisted and purchased the laptop with international warranty to be told sorry cannot provide international support was a shock . They do not dispute my international warranty but continue to insist that since  I have purchased the laptop in Dubai,  I should seek support only from Dubai. My google search is unable to locate  contact details of HP Dubai and now I am stuck with a non working laptop in my hand. 
Have I blundered  by purchasing a hp product, more-so after being informed by the HP customer care  that hp is prone to crash and i should have been prepared for such an eventuality.  This is not what i expected from a support team of hp.
Now disturbed with HP service, support, site and product.

I just sent you a private message. If you are not sure how to check your forum messages, this post has instructions.

  • Can i change graphic settings on a "HP Pavilion dv6-3161eo Entertainment notebook pc"?

    Hi
    I have a "HP Pavilion dv6-3161eo Entertainment notebook pc" and I run Windows 7 64-bit. Lately I bought a lot of games, and I was hoping to play them without any problems. I have been able to before, so nothing should get in my way for doing it now. But it seems that my graphic settings keep changing from time to time, since when I play, I get a lot of lagg, both online and offline. Sometimes I can play the games without any lagg, but the most times the games lagg when I play them. The times when I can play without any problems, I can also watch HD movies online, which I can't when i can't play the games without lagg. To make an example, I bought a game called "Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim". When the game starts up, it automatically "Detect your video hardware and set video options accordingly". The most times when I start up the game, it sets the video quality to "low quality", but sometimes it sets the video quality to "high quality". Those times, I can also play the other games without lagg. I am almost sure, it is because my graphic settings on the pc are being changed, but I dont know how, or how to do it manually. So is it possible to solve this problem and/or change the graphic settings manually?

    You might have too many things running on the pc, such as browsers, music players, downloaders as you load the game which would explain the erratic behavior of the game checking your available settings.
    PS, Skyrim Rocks, as does MW3

  • Sound Issues HP Pavilion dv6-6158nr Entertainment Notebook PC

    Hello,
     I have HP Pavilion dv6-6158nr Entertainment Notebook PC with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit OS. Recently I noticed issues with how my volume control works. I am not sure if it's an application issue (Firefox 9/10) or audio drivers. While watching playing an audio file or watching video my default playback device is set to speaker, but as soon as I plugin my headphones both headphones and speakers will go to mute. Some times disabling and re-enabling the device will solve this issue, and other than that I also have to restart Firefox to get the sound back.
     Tried installing all the available updates form windows, also reinstalled/update the sound drivers as n admin with no possible fix. Also as shown in picture below, when I try to make a Google call using Firefox I use built-in mike an headphones. During that time headphones icon will be appeared in the window shown below listed as communication device and disable both audio in/out.
    Let me know if any further information is required.
    Thanks.

    First uninstall the audio driver:
    Click Start and type device in the search field, then select Device Manager. >> Audio, video and game controlar >> right click and uninstall all values under it >> restart >> download and install the following drivers:
    BIOS
    Audio

  • HP Pavilion dm1-4000au Entertainment Notebook PC_Keyboard and Touchpad Suddenly Stops Working

    Hi there,
    I have an HP Pavilion dm1-4000au Entertainment Notebook PC (QG411PA) running Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit for more than a couple of years already. During those times up until now, whenever my laptop is on standby for an hour or so, its keyboard and touchpad suddenly stops working, regardless if its running on battery or on AC power.
    I always ensure that I have an external mouse in order for me to navigate properly and pull up the on-screen keyboard in order to type once that issue arises.
    All appears to be updated in terms of Windows Updates and I even reformatted it, but issue still persists.
    Is this particular issue that I am experiencing a harware issue? Perhaps a software issue? Or maybe a defective model itself?
    Your prompt response is highly appreciated.
    Sincerely,
    Led

  • USB 3.0 Upgrade for HP Pavilion dv9700 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC

    Is it possible to upgrade my HP Pavilion dv9700 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC to USB 3.0?  I've been searching the website and google and haven't found any concrete answers just yet.  I'd rather not have to buy a new laptop just to get USB 3.0.  It's been the most reliable pc I've ever had and I don't wantn to replace it!
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Hi,
    You have to buy a new laptop or swap the system/motherboard or buy an Express card - USB 3 (I've got one) or PC card - USB 3. For desktop , this is much simpler, a PCI - USB 3 card will do.

  • Win 7 OS Re-install (HP Pavilion dv6 Entertainm​ent Notebook PC series)

    Hi
    I have problem re-install windows 7 on the laptop.
    I installed Linux on the computer.
    and want to re-install windows 7 on it.
    but have problem finding the right AMD Sata driver for my laptop.
    when i use lspci -vl in ubuntu i get that i have
    AMD SB6xx / SB7XX / SB 8xx (SATA)
    what i have tried until now.
    64bit Win7Vista AMD AHCI driver v1.2.1.349 WHQL
    64bit Win7Vista AMD SB7xx/8xx RAID driver v3.3.1540.35
    from win-raid
    Please can someone help me?

    Here are the specs for your HP Pavilion dv6-6042eo Entertainment Notebook Computer. Here is the HP Pavilion dv6-6042eo Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers page for your computer. Here are the most current AMD Chipset Driver (Chipset, SATA/RAID, USB 3.0).
    If using the HP Recovery Discs set you created when you first setup your computer or an HP Recovery Disc set you ordered from HP, you shouldn't need any drivers to return the computer to a factory like state.
    If you are trying to use a generic copy of Windows 7 to do a clean install, you also shouldn't need AMD specific drivers to complete the install. You may wish to see "How to Install Windows 7 Without the Disc" for instructions on downloading the Windows 7 SP1 Media Refresh image, creating the Windows 7 SP1 installation media, and installing Windows.
    I reccomend using Windows SP1, as it has newer and more complete driver support. This may get you past the issue you are having. You may also wish to post images, as to aid us in assisting you.
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • Pavilion dv6-3227cl entertainment notebook powers on but only has a black screen

    An HP Pavilion DV6-3227cl Entertainment Notebook, that is approximately 2 years old and is running Windows 7 Home Premium, AMD Vision Premium, will power on but not boot up.  The fan runs and the "caps lock" light flashes once approximately every 4 seconds but all I get is a black screen with no cursor or error messages.  There are no beeps.  The power supply indicator illuminates (white) for about a second, then turns to a dim orange when the battery is installed, but remains white when the battery is removed.  However, the two indicator lights (I'm not sure what they are for) next to the USB port nearest the power indicator light illuminate as follows:  the one on the left (as you are looking at the right side of the notebook) is white; the one on the right is orange.  Both are fully illuminated (not dimly as the power indicator light).  The power indicator light is not as bright as the other white indicator near the USB port.  The notebook has booted up and appeared to be running one time since having this problem started, but I have not been able to get it to boot up again.  I am told the battery is bad (it's my brother in law's notebook), but is it possible the problem is with the power source rather than the processor or motherboard?  I appreciate your comments/advice on this matter.  Thank you.

    Hi fejevitzky,
    Your question, "Based upon that, I believe you are telling me you do not think it is the BIOS--is that correct?" Yes, as long as you dont see any "white" light reveal from LCD bezel back side while with blank screen state. LCD bezel is the cover around LCD, most design put LED modeule at the bottom side next to LCD. While back light is not on during boot up sequence, that means system doesnt have chance to get BIOS program running. It also means, it stuck at state of hardware bring up. Normally motherboard related.

There is no HDMI audio device listed on the computer. Audo devices that are listed are: IDT High Definition Audio CODEC for speakers and headphones.

    Hi,
    My suggestion:
    Go to this site to download the required driver.
    Totally uninstall the Audio driver.
    Install driver from the downloaded file.
    Turn off the TV and laptop.
    Connect HDMI cable.
    Turn ON the TV first.
    Turn ON the laptop.

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp41501-42000/sp41698.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,download and reinstall the Chipset driver on the link below.
    Chipset Driver - Windows Vista.
    When the reinstallation has completed, 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 and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.
