I have a dv7-6b32us .. i am using a crt monitor which i know supports 120hz.. video driver doesn't

I have a dv7-6b32us laptop...
Operating system is windows 7 home premium 64 bit..
The problem I'm having is.. I have it hooked up a CRT monitor that I know supports 120hz easy at the resolution I want to run my games in.. can easily run 240. My issue is since I'm on windows 7, it now caps my max hertz at 85. Which is a complete joke. If I have to do some regedit or edit some system files. Please point me in the right direction..
Or if there is something simpler as in a driver that allows it, would always be nice. the video is the INTEL HD 3000
Any help is much appreciated.

There are other options. AS are not the only places that repair Macs. What about an AASP which I also mentioned?

Not sure what you're asking.

How do I get the new Photos App to use my iPhoto library which is stored on an external drive?

2 years back  assisted me in putting my HUGE iPhoto library on an external TB drive where I store all my pics and videos. They showed me how to point the iPhoto app to the iPhoto Library on my external, and it has worked flawless since. But now that I updated to the new release of Yosemite OS X, the Photos app failed to find it. And from what it looks like, it requires it to be stored locally on the iMac's drive... which I only have 500Gigs, and that was the whole reason for relocating the library...it's WAY bigger than 500Gigs. I would like to see if there is a way for the Photos app to find the iPhoto Library on my external, and update it so I can take full advantage of the new app and it's features.
Any help would be appreciated...!

Hey spdnbusa09,
If you hold down the Option key on your keyboard and launch Photos it should let navigate to and select you iPhoto Library on your external HD.

Dv7 6b32us HDD error 301

I have a dv7 6b32us . I ran HDD test and error 301 came up on both quick test and long test. Does this mean I have to replace it? Any recommendation for the new HDD replacement?

Hi,
Yes, it does look like you'll need to replace the HDD.
The drive on the link below is an example of one that would be fine for your notebook.

The procedure to replace the Hard Drive starts on Page 59 of your Maintenance & Service Guide.

Can I use a 2nd Monitor at 4K resolution (quad hd, 3840 x 2160 pixels)

HP Envy TS 17 Notebook, Product # E4S19UALaptop is running Intel HD Graphics 4600, and I have 16Gb memory installed. I use a 2nd monitor all the time via the HDMI port - works great. Both the laptop and the current 2nd monitor are running at 1920x1080 resolution (HD). I would like to attach a 4K monitor - (UHD-1) 3840x2160 resolution - 4 x "regular" HD (twice the horizontal and twice the vertical resolution). Will this laptop be able to operate the 4K monitor at 3840x2160 resolution (even at 30hz would be okay - not for games but rather for word processing, spreadsheets, software development)? Don't want to invest in the fancy new monitor if the laptop cannot drive it! Here is an exampe monitor: Samsung 28 Inch Ultra High Resolution LED Monitor (U28D590D), available on Amazon.com. Thanks!

Thanks for the information! As a suggestion, I have a copy of that manual, and it does indeed state precisely the information that I needed. Funny thing is, I looked in the TOC and the Index for anything related to external monitors and HDMI, and there wasn't anything that pointed to that page. Perhaps for future User's Manuals, the TOC and/or Index could include such references. Either way, thank you so much for the help! Also, for folks who are interested in higher resolution external displays, there is the option to use USB devices such as that from www.plugable.com to attach devices. I don't yet have their USB 3.0 4K compatible one, but I have been using their USB 2.0 HD compatible one for several years so that I can have 3 monitors (built-in, external, Plubable USB) - and it works very well. Flawless operation, though refresh rate is slow (not good for gaming). Which works for me, because it is mainly for surfing and email.

How to extract data using DSources which do not support Delta

Hi forum,
Iam using a data source which does not support delta. In such a scenario what should i do For subsequent extractions.Will i have to opt for full load every time, if so then how will the double data records be treated. Pls help me out of this situation. In RSA6 if i click on the data source there i can find a check box for enabling delta , but again that is greyed out. If i want to change that what steps should i follow.
All the helpfull answers and solutions would be thanked by assigning full points.
Regards
Pallavi

Can you give me the data source name please.
If it is a standard Business Content Datasource and it does not support delta(or delta is not enabled) then you dont have any choice to modify the standard Datasources. In such cases you can create a Generic DS same as Standard DS and enable delta.
Hope this helps.

Anyway to monitor which program is using the hard drive?

Right Side USB Ports Don't Work on my DV7 6b32US

I just bought a DV7 6b32US.
It's on Windows 7 Home Premium.
The left hand side USB slots are okay. but the two on the right side do nothing at all. No message - nada!
It seems to be a common issue, but I have no resolution to it.
Also, annoyingly, when I logged on to the HP site to try and find drivers, the laptop's serial number is recognized as a Compaq.
Anyone able to help?
Thanks in advance

Hello everyone. I understand you're having issues with non-functional USB ports. I suggest trying the following.
Go to Device Manager.
Expand the "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" section.
Remove all "host controllers."
Shut down the notebook.
Remove battery and AC power.
Hold power button for 20-30 seconds.
Replace battery and AC power.
Boot notebook and allow Windows to reinstall the host controllers.
Reboot one more time.
Verify that this resolves the issue.
Let me know the result. I hope you all have a Happy Holiday!

How to disable touchpad when usb mouse in on HP ENVY dv7-7259nr Notebook PC‏ using Windows 7

I would like to have my touch pad disabled when using my USB mouse or otherwise be able to manually disable it. It is a pain to use when typing with the touch pad enabled but I would like to use the touch pad on occasions such as when I am traveling or if my mouse goes out. Not to mention, I would need to re-enable the touh pad if for some reason I have no mouse (keyboard shortcut?)
I am using windows 7 on my HP ENVY dv7-7259nr Notebook PC‏

This is what it looks like.
You should consider returning you notebook to the Windows 8 OS. There are many new features that it has that Windows 7 never did. Download use the free open source software called classic shell to give yourself a start button in Windows 8 that even has more features than Windows 7 start buton does. Once you use Windows 8 for a while you will enjoy it, especially the refresh feature and lower memory use.
I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Windows 7 drivers.

erico

Bluetooth on HP-Pavilion-dv7-6b32us

I am trying to connect bluetooth earphones to my HP-Pavilion-dv7-6b32us Notebook. I have two different models that I am trying to connect to my notebook: Nextware Sonic and Jarv earphones, both via bluetooth. I've tried "Add a Device" through the control panel, but the devices don't pair or show up. I can't find bluetooth in the device manager. Are there any drivers I can download or software on the computer I can activate to solve this, or do I need to buy a bluetooth dongle?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

The specs do not indicate that your model has bluetooth so yes, if you want it you are going to have to get a dongle.

HP Pavilion dv7-6b32us Fan Buzzes when running fast

I have an HP Pavilion dv7-6b32us and within the past few months my laptop heats up pretty easy and whenever the fan starts running really fast it will buzz and it vibrates enough that I can feel it a bit in the top left area of the laptop, the only way it stops is if I tap that area pretty hard. I'm assuming this means the bearings or something on the fan are shot, and it needs to be replaced. I've tried to clean the fan area the best I can (though there's never a lot of dust inside) but if I remember from the last time I took it apart, I can't get to it very easily without removing the motherboard, so i have to clean the fan with the cover on. Is there a way to fix this or if not, where can I get a replacement fan?

Hi,
Have a look at the service guide.
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03043778.pdf
Your laptop should have a shared graphics Intel 3000 so pick the heat sink/fan assembly for the Intel UMA memory:

Hp dv7-6b32us model has no indicator light for numlock

Model: Dv7-6b32us, OS: Windows 7 home premium 64bit.
Issue: There is no indicator light that num lock is active or not. Is this a default feature or there is something missing in the laptop?

Since there is no status light on that model, try this software

I tried it and it works great. You have to avoid the maze of Freeware they try to download on your computer. Click the link in the text, NOT THE DOWNLOAD Manager.
