Hp pavillion dv6 no sounds

i get no sounds from my dv6 speakers at all and its been like that for quite a while (cant be bothered getting it fixed)
but i now also have no sounds when plugging headphones in.
it makes a sound when i plug them in due to the static or whatever it is but i cant hear any noise....

Speakers not working on brand new pavillion dv6. headphones work fine

I've just taken this Pavillion DV6 PC out of the box and the speakers are not working. Windows 7. Sound is fine when I plug headphones in.

Hi,
Try using Recovery Manager to reinstall your Audio Driver ( probably IDT ) - the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the relevant document on the link below.
Recovery Manager - Windows 7
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 through the speakers.
If you still have no sound, I would return the unit and get it replaced - you shouldn't have to be troubleshooting a brand new machine.

Pavillion dv6-6002ev is beeping on start up continuously

Hello,
I have a problem with my laptop which is the Pavillion dv6-6002ev i5, operating system: Windows 7, error message: continues beep code at the start up, issues occurred: water was spilled through the keyboard, product LL053EA.
Actually I am not very proud of it but by mistake I spilled water on it through the keyboard. I immediately turned it off and I used the blow drier to dry it as much as I could..I removed even the keyboard and the memory cover from the back in order to be sure that all the water has gone.
After that I turned it on and in the start up there is a beep code ( I don’t have LED code at all) that is continues.If I press enter or another button then after awhile this sound stops for a while then starts again and then I have to choose from the Boot manager Windows7 and then starts.
Firstly the touchbad didn’t work but everything else worked fine (sounds, video, battery, processor). After 20 hours of the incident the touchbad started also to work but the light of the touchbad still does not work.
So the main problem is the loud sound at the beginning that doesn’t stop unless I use the boot manager to start the Windows.
I searched on the internet from the beginning and I saw that this beep code can only indicate a hardware problem so until now I have tried everything available on the internet to make this sound to stop (taken from here http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01732674&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc...)But nothing worked and everything seemed fine, memory tests passed and everything.
Also I used the DST tests that are available from this model (Hard drive, Memory, Battery) but all of them passed...
So really after doing everything and without being an expert on PCs I would like to ask is there anything more that I can do in order this sound to stop and before I have to take it to expert to fix it? And is it this sound really worrying?, can I use the laptop until I will get it fixed or its better to have it off?
Thank you in advance for your responses

Hey ktassi !
Gosh I hate when that happens! I've been there myself and I know it's very frustrating.
The first thing I would recommend doing is turning the computer on and getting all of the personal files backed up. That would be my priority. If you already have everything saved externally, then there's no need to worry with that step. Now, there is back up software out there that you can use. However, I've found that copying and pasting each folder individually over to an external hard drive/flashdrive or cloud service is a more reliable way of backing up your files.
Once you have everything backed up, you can troubleshoot. It would be helpful to know what the beep pattern is that you're hearing at power on. You did a great job finding that document. It has a key on it that will tell you what component is affected depending on the beep patter you hear. If all of the hardware components seem to be working OK, you could try reloading Windows. Although, I couldn't guarantee this would help since the beep code indicates a hardware problem, but it well worth a try.
Here are the steps to perform a System Recovery after you have backed up all of your files. From the blue links at the top, choose "Recovery from the startup screen (during system boot)". When the recovery is done, use your computer normally. Start it up and shut it down several times to see if it will detect any problems (which will cause it to emit a beep pattern again). If it does still beep after the recovery, there may be a minimal hardware issue. That malfunctioning hardware may need to be repaired/replaced before the notebook will stop beeping.
You could also try muting the PC Beep.
Right Click on the Speaker symbol in the system tray > Click Playback Devices > Right Click on 'Speakers'/'Speakers and Headphones' > Click Properties > Click the Levels Tab > Mute PC Beep.
This method should be used with caution though because if there ever were a serious hardware failure that would cause the computer to beep, you would be unaware of it, possibly until it was too late.
Let me know what the beep pattern is. Please let me know if you have any questions or if these suggestions help (this could help others with the same issues). I'll keep an eye out for your reply!

HP Pavillion dv6-6c 11nr entertainment pc Bass and Treble settings not saving.

I have a pavillion dv6-6c11 nr laptop and every time i turn it on I have to turn it on i have fix the bass and treble settings. They are automatically set to -12[bass] and 4[treble]. It sounds terrible so I set both to 0. After setting it to 0 I am satisfied with the sound. But it resets itself every time i turn on my laptop. It is frustrating me to no end. I've tried updated my drivers but they all say they are up to date. If it helps im running windows 7 64bit with beats audio. Im not sure what other specs i should add. Also I have no idea how to use Beats.

Hi JeffyBoy1792,
You'll find the answers to both questions in the owners manual of your notebook, beginning on page 35.
Please let me know if this helps.
Good luck!

Imminent Hard Drive Failure Pavillion DV6

HP Pavillion DV6 - 6051ea
Windows 7 64-bit
Imminent Hard Drive error
I've run the hard drive scan, and got the following failure ID:
M4JC3U-5K9655-MFH14J-60E303

Hi:
I would back up my files as soon as possible, if I were you.
Also, if you have not created a set of recovery disks using the HP Recovery Manager, I would do this ASAP.
You may also want to create a system image using the backup tool in windows 7 and create a repair CD.
Then plan on getting a new hard drive in the very near future. Use the recovery disks or system image to load your OS back on the new hard drive.

Pavillion dv6-Had screen replaced on August 22, 2012 because it went black and would not come back o

Have a Pavillion dv6 for my teenage daughter. We got it late December of 2011, so it's less than a year old. On August 22, 2012, I just got it back from being repaired because the screen went black and would not come back on no matter what we did. It came back with a teeny, tiny little black line way down at the bottom of the screen, didn't seem like a big enough problem to worry about so we kept it and she used it. Last night when she went to bed it was working fine, today when she turned it on after getting home from school, the whole screen is a disaster---it looks like a big diagonal crack is running up the screen and it's a solid strip of color on one side and then lines and then the crack then you can see where the sign on logo is trying to run---kind of---rolling up the tiny part of the screen it is showing on. Called customer support, which was a complete nightmare! I used the first number that came up for hpsupport on google and it was iyogi-----could barely understand the woman on the other end, she kept having me tell her the problem over and over and over and over and telling her my name and phone number and email address and the serial number and the product number, over and over and over and over and over and over-----this went on forever---then she had me try pressing the f10 key and the power button and it gave 13 beeps and would go off, she had me put the phone up so she could hear that happen 6 times. Then finally she says it;s a hardware problem and she will transfer me over to harware support after trying to sell me software protection that I don't want. She transfers me, I get an automated system and damned if I don't get rolled right back to the same Indian woman and she starts me from scratch like she hadn't just talked to me 4 minutes before that-----I was furious! I told her I had already been on the phone with her and told her all this information and she still had me give it to her 3 more times then said she would put me through to hardware support. I spent 1 hour and 25 minutes on the phone total and almost all of it was with this woman that had no clue and barely spoke English. Why? I live in the USA, I bought the product in the USA, why can't I speak to customer support in the USA? Why do I always have to talk to someone that I have a language barrier with? Why do they always make me do the same thing over and over and over and keep me on the phone over an hour? It was the same way in August when it needed repaired, I was on the phone that night 1 hour and 10 minutes. Is the goal to get you to just forget it and go buy a new one?

iYogi is not part of HP. I would recommend calling 1-800-474-6836 or visiting http://goo.gl/Pru5A for all of your support needs with HP products.

     •Windows 7 64 bit/Ubuntu 12.04.1
3. Error message (if any)
     • Usb device not recognized

     • Nothing really. Stopped working while working on an assignment for school
Description:
My usb ports are not working. There is power running to them(light on usb stick light up) however when I plug anything in it says usb device not recognized.
I have tried:
Updating bios(No option in bios to turn usb on/off)
Reinstalling all drivers for usb(removed and restarted so they would automatically reinstall.)
Unplugging laptop and removing battery for a long period of time(all night)
The problem persists in Ubuntu and Windows 7. I am coming to the conclusion that the ports are toast and I will need to replace the mother board. If thats the case can anyone tell me the approximate cost of replacing the motherboard?(If too much ill just be buying a new computer)
Thanks.

What is the typical cost of replacing the cooling fan the laptop is HP Pavillion DV6 6165tx.

What is the typical cost of replacing the cooling fan in a
laptop computer ? (In India in Indian Rupees)?
The laptop is HP Pavillion DV6 6165tx. The cost means
fan cost plus labour charges.

Hi,
You should know this better than us. Normally part is around $40 (more or less) and labour can be $50 to $200. I would charge this for $400 (minimum) or free.

I have bought new laptop(HP Pavillion dv6 - 6116 tx) on last Sunday, 06-Nov-2011. Last night, I observed that there is a manufacturing defect as follows:

Pavillion dv6 2144 tx Nvidia drivers for xp

I recently purchased a Pavillion dv6 2144 tx which came with Windows 7 Home Premium. I replaced the 500 gb drive with another drive and installed XP Pro (after much slipstreaming of SATA drivers) and have been able to find most of the other drivers apart from a Video driver for the Nvidia GEFORCE 230M graphics.
I have downloaded and installed all sort of drivers from the Nvidia site but thus far have not had any succes in getting them to load. Invariably end with a message saying that I have the wrong OS - even when using the XP drivers....
Can anyone help?

How to get Beats by Dre software on my Pavillion DV6-6170SD?

Hello everyone,
I recently installed Windows 8 (64 bit) on my HP Pavillion DV6-6170SD and most of the drivers were working right away. I used to have Beats by Dre audio software before I updated my Windows and now I can't find it on the website below.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4063&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=5141...
Can someone help me find the Beats by Dre software for my laptop?
It looked a bit like this.
Thanks in advance,
Ali

Hi Ali,
You're welcome
It may be worth trying to use the Windows 7 IDT Audio installer specifically for your notebook ( I've found this seems to work Ok on several machines ) - download it from the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55094.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Programs and Features, right click the IDT Audio entry and select Uninstall - let the process complete and then restart the notebook.
Let Windows fully load, open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, restart the notebook again.
Any improvement?
Regards,
DP-K
