HP Probook 4525s Startup Problem

Hello, I've had my HP Probook 4525s for about a year now. For the past month, it has been randomly freezing forcing me to turn it off without properly shutting it down. Eventually, my HP prompted me to restore my hard drive. After assuring all files I needed were properly backed up, I restored my hard drive to its default factory state. My HP restarted itself and began setup, but there's a problem. It says "setup is preparing your computer for first use" and an error repeatedly comes up saying "The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click "OK" to restart the computer, and then restart the installation. I've clicked okay and it restarts, but then it brings me once again to the same screen with the same error. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Hi, There are a couple of options I'd suggest. 1. You can order a replacement set of Recovery Discs using the link below - using these to reinstall the OS, will also re-create the Recovery Partition. Order HP Recovery Discs. 2. Assuming this is just a problem with the Recovery Partition, here's an alternative option you could try. Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the 25 Character Product Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ). An example of a COA Label can be seen Here. You can create an installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the correct Disc Image ( this must be the exact same version that originally came with your notebook ) from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here. These Images are clean and from a well-respected source, however there are only limited versions available. Windows-7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations. http://www.kodyaz.com/articles/how-to-activate-windows-7-by-phone.aspx Any additional drivers and software you may need can be found starting Here.

Webcamera in HP Probook 4525s

The webcamera in my HP laptop is not visible in Skype, neither in Device Manager, BUT I can see an 'unknown device' in there, to which I (via 'browse the computer and windows update for drivers') cannot install drivers. I also tried to install HP webcam drivers, to no avail since it kept telling me that it didn't detect a camera.
I'm 100% sure that my laptop has a webcam since I can see the camera lense on the top of the laptop screen.
What do I do?

I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/

Factory Setup wanted ProBook 4525s

Hello, I am unhappy with the disorganized mess of my pc and would like to return to my factory setup and programs. I've tried the recovery option but it tells me there's no image to recover. Restore points do not help either. I purchased this pc notebook last Jan and it did not arrive with any cd's for re-install......bought straight from HP by me. I have no idea how to accomplish this without a cd nor how to get needed items.
Thanks in advance for anyone's help.

HP ProBook 4510s bios administrator password ????

Hello HP friends
I have a second hand ProBook 4510s laptop suddenly when opening it asked me for a Bios administrator password.
while i did't create any password .
so i can't boot to OS or USB or any other external device .
please help me.
thanx

Conos.
There are no master password generators for ProBooks or EliteBooks and most business class laptops.
If you can boot and still access a Windows OS try this first.
1. HP BIOS Configuration Utility.

If not then try this.
2. Contact HP.

3. Or look at this link.

Mazzif’s program will detect your UUID, Serial Number and model number then use that information to produce an .exe file to clear the password.
If you find it to be too technical then.
4. Replace the BIOS chip.

If you have good soldering skills order the BIOS chip. You will receive a picture of the chips location after purchase.

Hello RadimHerman ,
HP ProBook 4525s supports a max memory (RAM) of 8GB. It has 2 sockets for memory and each socket can hold upto 4GB. You can go with the following memory- "4GB DDR3-1333 PC3-10600 204Pin SODIMM".
You can find the memory either in crucial or memorystock. Good Luck with the upgrade.
If you have your laptop under warranty then you can service it from the nearest HP authorized service centres or you can contact HP.
Best Regards,
John

How do I permanently disable the touchpad on Probook 4525s?

How do I permanently disable the touchpad on Probook 4525s? I can uninstall the driver in Control Panel, but on the next boot, it's back on again. I use a usb mouse and the touchpad is simply in the way when I'm typing.
This question was solved.

Hi PoohBear!
There are a couple of options depending on your OS and your TouchPad version.
The very best option, should it be available to you is the following:
Newer Drivers (at least the V16.x) have the ability to turn off the TouchPad / Click pad with a setting on the main "Settings" page when a USB mouse is being used. This is a very nice feature.
Control Panel > icon view > Mouse > TouchPad [ClickPad] Settings >
CHECK "Disable internal pointing device when external USB pointing device is attached"
If you would like to be notified and see a visual cue of the disablement >
CHECK "Animated tray icon in Taskbar" >
and make sure you have your Taskbar notifications set so you can actually see the Mouse notice.
=====================================================
Here is a 16.2.X TouchPad driver for the ProBook series - It may work on your notebook:
sp58647 Synpatics V.16.2.10.12
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
An Alternate method that may work with an older driver should the better option not be available:
Control Panel > icon view > Mouse > TouchPad [ClickPad] Settings >
(repeat) TouchPad Settings (button) > Click-on Tapping >
Click on Spikey Blue Wheel
At "TouchPad Disable Zone Settings"
CHECK "Double Tap to Enable / Disable TouchPad"
At "Top Left Action"
CHECK "Switch the TouchPad OFF"
Close
OK
NOTE If this alternate option is available, it is fine, unless something goes awry. You could get stuck without your USB mouse AND without a means to get back into the setting to switch on the TouchPad. I do not know whether I would use this setting.
===================================================================================
I hope this helps!
Kind Regards,
Dragon-Fur

HP Probook 6545b Bios Problem

I flashed my bios on HP Probook 6545b with the newest bios version which i found on HP support download page for this model. I successfully finished flashing procedure but my laptop is now dead. Battery led is permanently blue with orange flash on every second. Does anybody knows if it is possible to do some low level bios recovery !?

If it's completey dead, you need a BIOS hardware specialist, try contacting AQSTECH.com I had a failed DV6000 BIOS as well. Much cheaper than a replacement motherboard.

Probook 640 bios - Enable Intel VT-x and disable trusted execution for VMWare

With the Probook 640, can someone please explain, step by step, how I would make the proper settings in the bios for VMWare virtualization? I need to enable Intel VT-x and disable trusted execution.Thank you.

There was another setting in bois I found that required scrolling in the bios screen. Tricky to find with no mouse.
I am not sure if some day these terminologies can be standardized so someone can follow very specific instructions rather than vague instructions that are further obfuscated with the use of technical acronyms.
That is the problem, that error message in VM is not explicit enough as to what steps to take to correct the problem. These bois screen authors decide arbitrarily to name settings as it relates to their world personally and there are not standards.
I still don't know how that got changed in the first place but that is not an issue with VM ware as to what else is changing the setting.
Do you have any explicit suggestions as to how the error message can be improved?

The caps lock blinking three times indicates it is related to the RAM.
You can try disconnecting everything including the battery and the AC charger, holding the power button for one minute, and then turning it on.
If that does not help, then you can try removing each RAM module and trying with them one at a time.
