Hp pavilion xz185ua Windows 7

the message is "bootmgr" is missing and therefore the computer will not start up. How do I fix this?

Hi
You have a couple of options as I see it please try these steps might help you to fix your issue.
1) Run the Hard drive test on the unit if it fails then you need to replace the part. If the test passes go to steps given below.
Testing a Hard Disk using the Built in Self Test
2) Try doing a system restore to the date where unit was working fine using F11 option incase if this does not work you could run a recovery on the unit before this kindly back up your data as it will be lost.
Restore the PC to its original condition using the f11 key
In case unit does not load to F11 then you can order the disc from the web link given below.

Ipad mini 32 and can't connect to my HP Pavilion DM1 windows 8 via bluetooth

Just got a new Ipad mini 32 and can't connect to my HP Pavilion DM1 windows 8 via bluetooth. I get to the stage where you have to confirm on both systems the generated code and then it goes in error. Not supported. Any clue ?

Unless you have an iOS app that uses BT for a specific purpose, such as file transfer, BT on the iPad alone, as stated, does not support it.

HP Compaq Pavilion DV2130US Windows 7 32 Bit audio Driver

I cannot find the HP Compaq® Pavilion DV2130US Windows® 7 32 Bit audio Driver. This unit also comes with a small remote that I assumes runs on blue tooth. This also does not work. Are they linked together.

Hi:
Did you try the Vista audio driver from your notebook's support and driver page?

Pavilion dm4 windows 7 idt high definition audio codec v 6.10.6324 distorted audio playback

Suspect Windows 'pushed update' changed original IDT High Defition Audio CODEC becasue original worked fine since HP Pavilion dm4/Windows 7 was purchased. Sound plays, but periodically buzzes and is distorted. Have tried both rolling back driver and installing your Support driver sp57966.exe with BIOS load. Still no change, same distorted sound both times. Is there a way to return to original CODEC?

Hi,
Have you tried using Recovery Manager to reinstall your original IDT Audio Driver - the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the relevant document on the link below.

Cannot connect my Officejet 8500 a909a to my HP Pavilion dv7 Windows 7 64-bit

I have never been able to setup my Officejet 8500 A909a printer using my HP Pavilion dv7 Windows 7 Home Premiun notebook PC. After enumerable attempts I gave up and just used a thumb drive to transfer my printing from my notebook to my old tower PC and printed it from there. Well, my tower died and I really need to be able to print and scan from my notebook. I installed/uninstalled/reinstalled the latest printer driver with no liuck. I have also tried using the HP Print and Scan Doctor. It tells me I don't have all the needed software but when I click on Install, it fails too. Any suggestions?

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @michaeldq
I read your post about the issues you've had with installing your Officejet 8500 A909a printer on your Windows 7 system. I understand it fails however, could you send me a screen shot or more information about the failure? You may see a Fatal Error message and a code when you look at the error logs.
In the meantime, you can try a Clean Boot, restart the PC, temporarily disable any Firewalls and/or Anti-Virus' you have running.
Try running the installation again. Go back into the Clean Boot options to enable the start up programs again.
Please keep me posted on the results and info!

Hi,
G6 is a series of many models, what is yours. Normally the laptop should come with a software which allow you to watch DVD movies on your computer (given it has DVD player). The software can be PowerDVD:

Pavilion dv9812us - Windows XP reinstall / nForce drivers won't install

I had a funky virus on my Pavilion so I decided I would format and reinstall XP (my computer came with Vista but I'm not really a fan). I see an nVidia splashscreen come and go and then the installshield wizard comes up and loads the installation files... and then disappears. As far as I can tell, the installer crashes every single time I load it. I also tried downloading the unified drivers from nVidia's website, and the same thing happened. So my question is, how can I get these drivers to work? I really need to get my computer working because it is an integral part of my job... so double thanks in advance to anyone willing to help me on this.

OK, I booted into safe mode, removed the old VIA drivers from the %systemroot%\system32\drivers folder, and then saw that the nForce2 drivers from a previous install were in Add & Remove Programs. I believe that to be my entire problem. So I uninstalled all NVIDIA drivers. Rebooted into Safe Mode. Installed all the 5.10 drivers with success, excluding the sound driver cuz I don't need it. Rebooted. Windows hangs during loading screen. Reset, then I hit F8 and choose Last Known Good Configuration. Remove all NVIDIA drivers again. Reboot into Safe Mode. Install one driver at a time and reboot inbetween. System hangs because of the IDE driver. So, choose Last Known Good Configuration again, uninstall all NVIDIA drivers, reboot to Safe Mode, reinstall all drivers but IDE, then boot Windows normally. Needed to install display driver, as I have a NVIDIA card. Did that, disabled nwiz and NvMcTray in msconfig as I always do. Reboot. My SYSTEM registry hive is corrupted. So after wiping Linux (which I never use anyway cuz my modem is not Linux compatible) off my other drive and installing Windows and the Internet on it, I found out how to take the registry from a previous Restore Point and copy it to the config folder. Did that, booted to that drive, had to uninstall and reinstall all NVIDIA drivers again, but it works now. I don't have tons of System devices like you Fredrik, but I do have 3 Motherboard resources, which is weird. Whatever. Thanks for all your help, guys

HP Pavilion 750n - Windows XP Blue Screen of Death Error

Hello everyone - I hope I can get a reply to fix my son's computer (I can't afford to buy a new one).
I received the blue screen of doom and I was not aware that Windows had a patch to fix this before the error occurred. I tried to restore my system to when I first bought this computer without losing all my data (specially my pictures). Now the system starts but it gets stuck on the page that asked if you want to logon on Safe Mode or Regular Mode, etc. No matter what I choose the system keeps coming back to this same screen.
I read the following on the HP web side but I'm not sure how to get this diskette/cd or whatever they have available:
Preventing a Windows XP Critical Error
If you purchased your HP Pavilion home PC between September 2001 and February 2002, your PC may experience a Microsoft® Windows® XP critical error. To prevent an error that may cause your computer to be unusable, HP strongly recommends that you go to the Microsoft Windows Updates Web site to download all critical updates. Without these updates, an Unmountable Boot Volume error may occur randomly, and if it does, the error creates a blue screen with the message: A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME…Technical Information: *** STOP: 0x000000ED
If this error occurs, you will be unable to fix the problem without a diskette that you can order from HP Technical Support.
The system won't let me send HP an email and I can’t see how to contact them just to ask for a price. Perhaps, there may be another place where I can get the diskette for this fix - does anyone know how to get the diskette or if I can download the fix from somewhere else?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Get BartPE or Ultimate Boot CD and you should be able to get the computer to a state that will allow you to copy your files.
If you have a spare computer or HD, configure the problem HD as a slave and you should be able to access your files.

Problem with built in camerar - HP Pavilion dv6000 - windows 7 home premium

hello
i own a hp pavilion dv600 laptop with windows 7 home premium sp 1 installed
yesterday during an skype conversation all of a sudden i lost the camera.
at the start of the skype call i saw and heard the other party and they saw and heard me perfectly.
then without doing anything all of a sudden my camera went dead.
i checked in device manager and cant see the built in webcam anywhere and neither can skype under the options menu see the camera.
i restarted the PC and shut it down completely to no avail.
any suggestions on how to get the camera back?

Hi,
Try this alternative method as follows.
Unless you still have the installer, download the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the page on the link below - the download links are towards the bottom of the page - and save the installer to your Downloads folder.
http://h18021.www1.hp.com/helpandsupport/hp-support-assistant.html
Next, if you don't have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip. Please note, if you have a 64bit installation, download and install the .msi 64-bit x64 installer on the link below.
http://www.7-zip.org/
Next, right click the HPSA installer you download earlier, select 7-Zip, select extract files and then click Ok. Open the newly extracted folder, right click on UninstallHPSA and select 'Run as Administrator' - you may well see no progress of this attempted uninstallation, so leave the notebook to idle for a good 10 minutes before restarting it.
Open your Downloads folder and delete the ‘extracted HPSA folder’ so you are just left with the original installer you downloaded.
Now, run the Microsoft 'Fixit' on the link below and use it to install the new version of HPSA.
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
'Provost' is just a term from HPs Forum Ranking.
All the best,

HP Pavilion Slimline Windows 7 64-bit: "No speakers or headphones are plugged in" error message

I have an HP pavilion slimline, model s5120y, with Windows 7 (64-bit).
I just got my power supply replaced and when I brought it home and plugged everything in, I couldn't get any sound. It told me no audio devices were plugged in, but my monitor with speakers was plugged into the audio jack in the back, the green one (it's an onboard sound card and NOT HDMI). I also tried my headphones and same thing, so I know it's not the monitor.
So then I tried the jack in the front and it worked, although the sound was really low, even with the volume turned all the way up. But, then like an hour later it went off again giving me the same message that no devices are plugged in. I tried the back jack again and then it worked again for a short amount of time. It keeps going in and out and switching to whether the back or front jacks will work, or nothing at all telling me nothing is plugged in.
Another thing is that my web cam has a mic, which is plugged in using USB, and the mic on the cam seems to record fine, and I assume it needs the sound card to do that. So, i'm guessing this is some sort of software problem because if the sound card was **bleep**ed up then the mic wouldn't be able to record, right? Well, the program I was using was showing that it was recording and the levels went up as I talked louder, so I assume it was picking everything up properly.
The audio worked fine before I brought it in for repair but I can't figure out what could have happened to break it when all he did was plug in a new power supply.
I went to the device manager and it says everything is working properly and all drivers are up to date. I also uninstalled then re-installed, disabled then re-enabled. I even went to the manufacturer's page and installed the original driver for RealTek. I also went into BIOS to make sure onboard audio was enabled. Every troubleshooting option I have on my computer says everything is working fine, but that there are no speakers plugged in even when they are.
Also I should mention, when the sound does come back on, it's pretty low and sometimes muffled, and sometimes the monitor speakers will make a dim clicking kind of sound, but not all the time. One person told me it was a known issue with the latest windows update, but I haven't done an update since I got the computer back and I couldn't find any info on that anywhere on the internet.
Thanks to anyone who has any suggestions!

Hi Srizzle, I have done some research for you and I have found a updated driver that is designed to resolve the issue of No sound from head phones or from external speakers. Please click on the link to get to the driver down load page.
