Overclock Pavilion Touchsmart 15-b153nr, processor up to 2.4 GHz??

Hello, I currently own the HP Pavilion Touchsmart 15-b153nr laptop and the descriptions on all the websites it's listed on says the processor speed is 1.6 GHz up to 2.4 GHz AMD Quad-Core A8-4555M Accelerated Processor. Does this mean the laptop can be overclocked to 2.4 GHz? If so, how would I go about doing that? Thanks.
This question was solved.

That is turbo boost done by the system itself automatically. It's an Accelerated Processor - APU.
You can't overclock it.
thanks

You might want to do that one first as it will also contain the USB 3.0 driver.

Hp pavilion touchsmart will not turn on

Hi, I have a hp pavilion touchsmart laptop. I used my computer the other day to save a file onto a flash drive and It was working fine. I haven't touched it since then yesterday morning I noticed it was off and wouldn't cut on so I figured it died and I plugged it up and let it sit on the couch to charger. When I went to pick it up and turn it on about an hour later it was very hot and wouldn't cut on. The light next to the charger port is orange when you first plug it in then turns white after a few mins. No other lights are on and nothing happens when I press the power button. I'm still under warranty but I would like to try and fix myself before I go through that long process. Please help thanks in advance.

Hi @SKS_Paviliondv6
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that your notebook is stuck in a type of error loop, asking for a startup repair. I am happy to assist.
Have you ever backed up whatever data there is on this notebook, or is there anything of value on it? If there is nothing of value, you can try restoring the factory image, assuming it will function.
Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 7)
Troubleshooting HP System Recovery Problems (Windows 7)
If on the other hand there is some data on there that you want to back up, then I would do that first. To assist with that you can use the service manual to help with removing the hard drive, and then you can use a compatible external drive bay, and connect that to another device to make a copy of the things you do not want to lose.
HP Pavilion dv6 Entertainment PC - Maintenance and Service Guide
Also you can refer to this page on various ways to back up that data.
How to Recover Data from the Hard Drive of a Dead Laptop -wikihow.com
If the recovery process fails as well, then it is likely a hardware issue of some sort. You can try looking at this page which offers some options for hardware testing, if you can access them.
Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 7, Vista)
In my opinion, if the notebook is as old as you say, and if it comes down to a hardware problem, it is probably not worth fixing; but that also depends on the type of hardware failure. If it is something comparatively minor, and easily replaceable, then it may be worth doing; but if it involves a board or processor, then it is probably not worth doing at this point.
I hope this helps.

HP Pavilion dm1 Notebook PC processor upgrade

Hello,
I've recently purchased a HP Pavilion dm1z 4170us. I've had it for approximately 3 weeks and really enjoyed it. However I've found that the processor isn't really performing at the level i need. I'm currently utilizing the Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-2367M CPU @ 1.40GHz. I am wanting to upgrade this but I have little experience in performing such a replacement. So any information I could receive pertaining to this procedure would be greatly helpful. This would include what processor options I have and the steps in replacing it. If you need any more information about the notebook or anything else feel free to ask. This is my first post on this forum so I apologize if I posted to the wrong board. Thanks again for for any help.

Is it possible to upgrade my laptop processor? If it is possible, could anyone suggest a processor? Thank you in advance.
Hi,
This is a manual for your laptop:
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c04162986.pdf
It looks like the CPU is soldered to the motherboard because I can't find any AMD CPU as a spare part and also the motherboards are listed with each processor separately. That means the only option to get a better CPU is to replace the motherboard with the cpu already on it. In my opinion this entire series is a low voltage one and NOT GOOD for gaming. I have searched part number for the best possible motherboard and can't find any. It's going to be extremely expensive anyway.

HP Deskjet 2060 Won't communicate with HP Pavilion Touchsmart 14-B132tx laptop

PLEASE HELP. My HP DESKJET 2060 All-In-One printer won't communicate with my HP Pavilion Touchsmart 14-b132tx. I've been printing before smoothly and it just suddenly stopped a week ago. I already bought a new printer cord and even the new one won't allow my printer to communicate with my laptop.
I am using Windows 8-64 bit. I've already downloaded the latest HP Print and Scan Doctor and even uninstalled and re-installed the HP Deskject Ink Advantage driver but my printer still doesn't work with or communicate with my laptop.
Please help me anyone? Out there?

It would appear that the printer USB port is damaged. It would be best to contact HP Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here.

Does this HP Pavilion Touchsmart 15-n210dx support 1600MHz?

I just upgraded my RAM from 4GB to 8GB. Can this model support the speed 1600MHz? I can't see details from the box since this laptop was just brought to me. And if this model can handle the speed, can someone please tell me how?? Thanks.

Hi @VonL ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a terrific place to find answers.
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I grasp you would like to install an SSD and would like to know if it will void your warranty.
Here is a link to the HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC HP Pavilion TouchSmart 15 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide.
Page 39 has a list of recommended replacement hard drives. There is not a SSD in the list.
I am unsure of how installing a unrecommended drive would affect the warranty. I think the warranty would be OK, but to get support you may need to reinstall a supported drive. To be sure I would give phone support a call to determine if this is correct or how it truly affects the warranty.

HP pavilion TouchSmart 14-n230ed underscan (black borders)

Hello everybody,
I'm having a little problem lately with my new HP Pavilion Touchsmart notebook. A little while ago, my screen suddenly shows this big black borders around my screen.
I believe it is caused by underscan of the graphics chip (Radeon HD 8670M), however neither Catalyst Control Center or the Intel Graphics driver have any settings for these kinds of things. I have tried turning drivers off, reinstaling and updating de AMD drivers but nothing is working and I don't have a clue anymore how to solve this. I am using Windows 8.1. Could anybody help?
Thanks in advance,
Benjamin

Hi,
Was this the download that you tried from AMD: http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/mobile?os=Windows%208.1%20-%2064
It should provide the newest version of CCC (catalyst control center). You're looks to be older and could be why it doesn't have the option. Also, what's provided on the HP site aren't new enough.
There is one catch to using the AMD one, your notebook supports both the Intel 4400HD graphics and AMD 8670M, providing switchable graphics. This could disable that feature.
Another option to try is adjusting resolution settings to see if any are impacting it. The problem (as shown in the video) is scaling. The resolution setting isn't scaling to full screen correctly providing that boarder.
You could also, check to see if you have any Intel graphics manager program installed. I'm not sure on its title or where you'd find it as CCC is on the notebook.
The final option would be to contact phone support to see if they have anything else to add or provided.
Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region. http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-phone-assist.html

Battery for Pavilion Touchsmart 10e-010nr

Can anyone tell me where to buy a battery for a Pavilion Touchsmart 10e-010nr? HP does not seem to have it and I cannot find it anywhere else, other than sites in Australia and New Zealand. I thought I had found it on HP's ridiculous website, waited 3 weeks and it arrived today - a button-cell battery, NOT the power battery I thought I was buying. $40 and 3 weeks down the drain - fuming mad here...

Thanks, Huffer!

Issues with HP Pavilion Touchsmart 14-n019se (Energy Star)

I have had significant issues since 8.1 update. I have updated all drivers and the BIOS but still problems: Touchscreen does not respond to touch. When I set the notebook to sleep mode it crashes and all applications are closed and when I wake it up all apps are closed and I have to go through recovery options (ie Mozilla FF reload of tabs and MS Word recovery) Does anyone know how to fix these gripes - I have never had so many issues with a brand new notebook - WINDOWS 8.1 sucks. Thanks in advance.
