I want to change my envy 700-239 case

I bought an Envy 700-239 (intel core i7) a year ago, and i plan to upgrade it by taking out all the components and put it inside a brand new case, and upgrade the graphic card. I am thinking about getting a Razer H440 case and a GTX 750 ti. I am wondering if all the parts can be taken out and fitted into the H440 case without any problem. Thank you a lot!

Hello, the problem is the front of the case. If you look at the pictures on Razors website, there doesn't seem to be anywhere on the Front Panel to allow the BlueRay Drive you now have to open so that you can put a BlueRay disk in.
There must be a way but I don't see on the photos they show if the Front Panel opens to the side which would allow you to do what your wanting to do.
Ask them specifically how the BlueRay drive you now have would open given that the front panel doesn't seem to show anyway for the drive tray to slide into the open postion which you need to pop in a BlueRay movie or a blank DVD etc.
It might seem like a pain but you'll save yourself a lot of time & headaches.
Hope this helps.
Best to you

HP ENVY 700-210xt changed the case. Wifi adapterworking but can't find my network

Hi all, I just changed the case of my HP ENVY 700-210xt and now my wifi adpater cannot find my network. I work as an IT so I have done this before many times but this is weird. The adapter is detected by the OS. I installed the newest drivers with a usb key. I did everything and it just can't seem to find my network. all its saying is that it finds a hidden network which I have tried to enter my network info in and is not working. I know for a fact that my network is ok because I can use my cell phone, my ps4 and my wii U on my network and surf the web just fine. please help.

CodeExploit, welcome to the forum.
Here is a guide that explains how to connect to a hidden wireless network. From what you are saying, however, I doubt that you even have one.
Have you tried completely eliminating your network and setting it up again? It makes no sense that it would have worked with the original case and not the new one. Unless, that is, the case is shielding the signal some way. Is there an internal antenae?

HP Envy 700-414 won't boot up. HELP!

Hi all,
I had recently downloaded Ubuntu 12.10 and was planning to dual boot with my HP Envy 700-414 (with Windows 8.1). The installation seemed like it was going good, then Ubuntu prompted me for a restart to complete the installation, however, when it restarted, it won't boot up Windows 8.1 OR Ubuntu. It will just remain frozen on the HP logo. I've tried to go into the BIOS or changing to boot to boot from my CD again so I could attempt to re-install, but when my computer turns on, it will just stay frozen on the HP logo.
And when I press F10 or F9 to change boot settings and what not, it won't do a single thing. It's like it's stuck or something. And I don't know how to go about troubleshooting this.
PLEASE HELP!!!!! I've had this desktop for less than a month! Could this be a motherboard or hard drive failure? (I REALLY hope not)
Note: I don't want tips on how to dual boot, I just want to know what I could do get my computer to boot up again. Even if it means I'll lose the data on my HDD.
P.S. - I also might have allocated too much space on my hard drive when I was trying to install Ubuntu. Don't know if that would have anything to do with it though.

RAID is not an option/not available/missing in BIOS Storage Options?? HP Envy 700-047c

Hello - I have an HP Envy 700-047c. It came with a 2 TB HD. I put in another 2 TB HD same model/type. The system in the BIOS and Windows 8 sees the new drive. However, when I boot and go into F10 BIOS/HP Setup utility, go to Storage menu, select Storage Options, my only option is SATA Emulation and the only 2 select options it shows are AHCI and IDE. This is where I should see RAID option - it is not there.
I tried changing SATA ports on the motherboard - no help.
I tried disabling Secure Boot and UEFI and chose Legacy - no help.
I updated to latest BIOS for this PC - no help.
I installed Intel Rapid Storage Technology software and can see the 2 drives within Windows but there is no create option on the Status page like there should be (because you need to enable RAID in the BIOS which the option is missing).
I looked on the motherboard and don't see any jumpers that are labeled RAID (ie. some physical trip).
I called Intel and they confirmed the Intel chipset I have is RAID capable but to contact HP to see if they turned off. I contacted HP and twice they said they are not trained in RAID and do not support it. I contacted the local Microcenter tech support and they found a link on this website talking about how to go to the area I'm in - but the RAID option is not there.
Does anyone know how to get RAID enabled on this HP 700-047c in the BIOS/Setup utility? Help!

UPDATE BY ORIGINAL POSTER TO BELOW - The below is not accurate about RAID being disabled on "All" HP home line computers per research from Big_Dave (Thanks!) - It is what I was told by the HP Escalation Team Friday however - not just my MB but all - which we are seeing is not correct per the customizable Envy model in the following post. It may just be certain models or just my current model's MB...?? I struck thru some of the detail, but leaving it mostly intact so others can see the misinformation I was given.
Thanks for passing along. Below is what I found out about how RAID is disabled by HP now.
I also had an email going back and forth with HP support and they sent to HP Escalation team who I ended up talking with yesterday who researched it for a day and found out that HP has disabled RAID on the motherboard for all of their home PC line! As we were thinking above. Only servers can do RAID now is the word. Hard to believe they'd do that. The rep said he believed it had to do with people calling HP when they lost data due to setting up using RAID 0 and thinking that protected them (all it does is make a big disk, no redundancy like RAID 1).
To me that is no reason to turn off a feature of the Intel chipset. They also don't make this clear to any HP employee as no one I've talked to (3 now along with chat and email) knew that HP is crippling the capabilities of the MB and chipset. I even have a several year old HP Pavilion that has RAID enabled on it under my desk and has saved me twice from disk failure (running RAID 1 mirroring).
I'm pretty disappointed with HP decision to do this and that it's poorly recorded (in fact not recorded at all) it so that I wasted hours upon days trying to figure it out with tech support people. If HP wants to remove a much needed service such as RAID it should be mandatory for them to disclaim that right in the Specfications sheet. RAID IS DISABLED AND CANNOT BE TURNED ON ON ANY HP HOME CONSUMER COMPUTER.
Note: I even called AMI (American Megatrend, Inc.) with HP on the line who said they sold the MB to HP fully capable of RAID which is what led the escalation rep to research to whomever he talked to and found out HP is disabling it out the door to their unaware consumers.
I also asked if HP tech team disabled it, would they be willing to send me a BIOS flash to re-enable it - ie. make that an option for those who are knowledgeable about RAID and can setup. The response was they probably won't. I pressed a little but didn't get anywhere - seems like a reasonable request to me/option to keep people happy.
Luckily I'm within my return window and will be taking this computer back. Sad considering how much time I've put into it thinking I had a computer capable to do what I need.
Anyway - please help spread the word so HP can get this into their knowledge DB and boards that RAID is GONE - removed purposefully by HP.

HP ENVY 700-000t multiple monitor setup

I have an hp envy 700-000t, and I want to setup up a second monitor. When the monitor is plgged in, my computer doesnt detect it, and it reads no signal. Is there a compatibility issue with my computer?

Test your monitor on another PC to make sure that these components work successfully. Toggling the F4 key will electrically contact the second display. Press f4 to alternate the computer screen image between 4 display states:● PC screen only: View the screen image on the computer only.● Duplicate: View the screen image simultaneously on both the computer and externaldevice.● Extend: View the screen image extended across both the computer and external device.● Second screen only: View the screen image on the external device only.Each time you press f4, the display state changes. After each toggle, you will need to go to Window 8 setup multiple monitors and see if your second monitor is discovered.

How to downgrade from windows 8.1 to windows 7 professional on Envy 700-329

I am fed up with the problems resulting from Windows 8.1, eg program incompatibility, Slow/no response in browsers, especially IE 11, forced to use touch-screen style interface on conventional monitor and so on and so on. I have a Windows 7 Professional 64 bit licence for my Dell Vostro laptop. Can I use it on my HP Envy 700-329 desktop to replace Windows 8.1?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Good morning.
You're very welcome.
Only Pro versions of Windows are eligible for downgrade rights to the older versions of windows.
And the downgrade has to be performed by the PC manufacturer.
In other words, your PC would have a W8.1 Pro license, but W7 Pro would be preinstalled on it at the time of manufacture.
So you cannot purchase a downgrade license per se.
You will have to purchase a full retail or full OEM version of Windows 7 64 bit.
The difference between retail and OEM is that the retail version can be transferred to another PC as many times as you want provided it is used on one PC at a time, and as you read, the OEM version cannot.
The retail version of Windows cost about double the OEM version of Windows from what I recall.

Windows 8.1 Pro Bitlocker with HP Envy 700

I just got a new HP Envy 700-249. I upgraded to Windows 8.1 Pro immediately for Bitlocker and Remote Access. The PC will be stored in a relatively unsecure location and is for public use - but will have a few users who have access to install software, store private files, etc. SO I want to be sure that the OS stays safe as well as the data.
I want a way to keep someone from accessing anything on C drive that isn't in the Public folders and make the drive unable to be viewed if booted from anything other than itself. So I figured BitLocker. I've gone into gpedit.msc and set option to allow bitlocker without TPM. BitLocker runs and allows me to turn on encryption. I've tried a couple of types of USB drives and BitLocker says it has saved the key to them. I've checked and they have a BitLocker recovery file on them.
BUT - when the system reboots, it will not recognize the USB drive as the key and will not encrypt the drive. I am stumped.
Has anyone gotten an HP non-TPM desktop to encrypt the OS and data drives with Win 8.1 Bitlocker? How?????

Hi,
Bit locker was meant to encrypt entire physical drives. Review this MS article.
I would suggest that you install a second hard drive and then move your sensitive files and documents to that physical hard drive and use bit locker to encrypt that hard drive. If you are going to keep the key on an external device (USB flash drive) then make a backup copy in case the USB drive fails or is lost.

HP Envy 700-329 not accepting Windows 8.1 Pro!

Hi There,
I recently purchased a HP Envy 700-329 for our company. It came pre-installed with Windows 8.1 Homre Premium.
I had to format it and put Windows 8.1 Pro on it so we could join it to our domain.
However what keeps happening is every time I install 8.1 Professional, it appears as it is just 8.1 Homre Premium again!
The first time this happened I talked to the person I purchased the computer and 8.1 Professional form and he replaced the Windows 8.1 Professional with another copy.
However that did not resolve the issue.
Is there something HP is doing so we cannot switch Operating Systems?
Please let me know. I really need this working!
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Anytime.
Glad to have been of assistance.
That is pretty bad that you can't go straight to the source, and get an answer.
You'll just have to use the product key from the disk you bought and 'unlock' W8.1 Pro.
Like I wrote yesterday, I have looked everywhere for a workaround and have come up empty handed.
You are not the only one who has posted that issue on this forum. No one I know of has been able to clean install W8 or W8.1 Pro on a PC that came with W8 or W8.1 standard.
The standard key populates the install and errors out with an invalid product key.
You used to be able to change the product key right there when you got a error like that in XP, Vista and W7 but with this new activation 3.0, that option is no longer present.

Envy 700 w/Windows 8.1 Boots Past Advanced Start-Up Options Menu

I have an Envy 700 desktop with Windows 8.1. I'm trying to install a non-signed driver. I've gone through the documented process that is supposed to bring up the Advanced Startup Options screen, however when I do the Re-start it boots right past it and to the HP logo and proceeds to boot right back into windows again.
In fact I can't even get it to the menu to boot into Safe Mode without going into Command mode, msconfig, and manually checking the box to start into Safe Mode. Even then there's no way I've found to get to the Advanced Startup Options menu to stop doing signed driver checks.
Also I'm afraid some day if I have a real problem I won't be able to even get into Safe Mode.
Anyone have a solution...it must have something to do with the HP boot process not Windows.
Thanks!

I was never able to get the Advanced Startup Options menu to display more than maybe half a second before it continued to boot. I knew which menu item I wanted to select so just kept tapping the 7 key which is for disabling the driver signature checking and it did continue to boot as it has however my menu item did take affect so I was able to load my unsigned driver.
This issue has to have something to do with the HP routine I'm guess as it just blows right by the Advanced Startup Options to show the HP circle logo and boot normally. Hopefully there's some ideas on how to actually fix this...thank you for your support!

Low Memory when rendering a video file (Win 8.1; HP Envy 700-230qe)

Rendering a 4-minute video (with several video tracks) using Sony Vegas Pro13, keeps stopping around 70-80% of completion --- saying that there's low memory.
How could that happen on a HP Envy 700-230qe with 32GB DDR3 memory?
I look at the Task Manager: the "Commited" memory keeps increasing during the rendering until it hits the full number (36 GB in my case) and then the memory is depleted, which stops the render.
(No changes to the system except addition of an SSD drive as main drive, and a Blu-ray burner)
This question was solved.

Hello @Mango7
I understand that you are having issues with rendering a video using Sony Vegas Pro 13. I suggest you look to the Vegas Pro - Video as it would appear there are settings within the software that should help you. If you cannot find a post that matches what you are trying to do or the issue you are facing I suggest you post there as it would appear that their are numerous community members there that are willing to help.

any suggestions? e.g. a PCI card with s-video output?
This question was solved.

Hi,
Are you looking to capture input video or just output?
S-Video graphics cards are pretty much out of manufacture. Look for a NVIDIA GT 9500 if you want output. MS Windows 8 does show compatibility with the NVIDIA GT 9500. There are several GT 9500 models listed as compatible.

RAID 1 support ENVY 700-515xt desktop

Does my new ENVY 700-515xt ( product # K7X03AV) ,MSI Kaili2 motherboard, Chipset Intel Z97/Z87 ,OS Windows 7 support RAID 1 and if so what must I do to configure it.

Hi, This posted article will give you some background information so read though it at least twice.Make a complete image of the system hard drive as a safety precaution.All data on the target drive will be over written so back it up before proceeding.Install the Intel Rapid Storage Technology RAID driver (IRST).Go into MSCONFIG and set boot to Safe mode and save the change.Power off and reboot your PC in the BIOS menu (tap the ESC key after power on).Select F10 for BIOS setup and then go to Storage Menu-->Storage Options and change the SATA Emulation to RAID. Save the change and boot up into Safe Mode.If OK at this point then go back into MSCONFIG---> Boot and uncheck Safe boot, save the setting change and reboot.If OK at this point then your PC is ready to configure for RAID.Go into the Control Panel and select IRST.Go to the Help screens and review how to setup a RAID 1 volume.

HP Envy 700-214 Fails to install windows 10

Earlier this Year, I purchased an HP Envy 700-214 PC 64 bit, with Windows 8.1 that also provided a recovery partition. I have tried to upgrade to Windows 10, from the Windows Upgrade process, which failed 3 times. I then used the Media Creation Tool to download the 64bit iso from Microsoft, when I then burned to a DVD as an image. From my running 8.1, I accessed the DVD drive and ran the setup.exe. It ran through the who initial process of downloading updates and checking the PC for problems and space, It then gave me the options to upgrade and save my personal data. I then clicked on Install, which ran until about 25% completed. I then received a message that the install failed, without a hint of why it failed. I am just about ready to give up and stick with 8.1, as I have never seen such a mis-managed software process as this upgrade in my entire life.....

Hello, Have you used any third party partitioning/cloning software to change partitions sizes or installed an SSD and used partitioning software to clone the OEM factory image to the SSD? The Win 10 upgrade may fail if this is true. On another note the following article by Ed Bott may provide a solution. We know you must upgrade first to tie your device to an activation code so you can install Win 10 on the device again. Ed Bott provides a method for installing Win 10 cleanly that also activates during the installation process. Note, your current Win 8.1 install must be properly activated in order for Win 10 to activate properly. Try setting UEFI (BIOS) settings to defaults before attempting the clean install procedure described by Ed Bott in the above article. Have a recovery option available if this fails. This method is going to require installation of all software you have installed now on Win 8.1. You will be nuking Win 8.1 and starting fresh with Win 10. If it fails you will have to reimage Win 8.1 using a Microsoft Recovery Drive and a good system image stored on external backup drive, third party backup software, or use HP recovery discs to go back to the factory image. Backup the SWSETUP folder on current Win 8.1 installation to use to install HP software on Win 10. You also have Win 10 drivers at your PC's software and driver download site available if you have any driver issues after the Win 10 upgrade completes. Lastly, are you using a wireless keyboard or mouse? If so, try the upgrade or the clean install method (per Ed Bott) using wired peripherals. I have not seen any tips on this but it might help by limiting complexity. Did you run the compatibility checker tool included in the" Get Windows"notification program located near the system clock?
