Pavilion dv6-3243 Entertainment laptop....sound all broken up, stutters

went to the CBS site to watch a program..I've done it very rarely in past without problem......sound all broken up, and the picture seems to be in slow motion also. Any suggestions, anyone running into this problem? Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi,
Try the following.
First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Desktop.
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player.exe
When the download has completed, close all browser windows and run the uninstaller. After this has completed, restart the notebook.
Next, download and install Firefox and then using Firefox, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.
Close all browser windows before running the Flash installer.
Launch Firefox and see if you can now watch your CBS program Ok - if you can, close Firefox, open IE and click on the same Adobe Flash link above to get a prompt to install the ActiveX component. When done, restart IE.

HP Pavilion dv6-1360us Entertainment PC power button broken, power button board removed for use.

After working on my wife's laptop for the last week and not being able to find &amp;quot;the&amp;quot; solution online, let alone a pic of the power button board. I thought I'd try to share my shortcut with anyone that can benefit from it and hopefully avoid unnecessary repairs and costs. Of course we don't want even more money going to HP for no reason.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The problem:&lt;br&gt;My wife was messing with our dog and a little pop splashed on and under the left front of the laptop. This was near the power button and underneath near the ram cover and vents. We unplugged the laptop and removed the battery as soon as I'd learned what happened. We dried it as best we could and after awhile started it back up. It started for shorter and shorter periods of time until it wouldn't start at all. I spent the next couple days trying all the forum solutions like holding the power button down, removing and inserting the battery and power supply ...blah, blah , blah. Eventually I came across somebody talking about the power button board. At this point the laptop with the battery only did nothing and had no lights, noise ...nothing. If the power supply was plugged in we had a light next to the plug and a front left panel light on. If the battery was removed and it was only the power supply we had only the light next to the power supply input. Everything i found said it was the motherboard or GPU. I feared the worst lol. I took it part for the 4th time and looked at the power button board and noticed the side of the power button itself had cracked all the way through. I decided i would try and start it without the power button board or cable connected instead of the shorting out process blogs were talking about.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The solution:&lt;br&gt;I removed the DVD drive, hard drive, ram, keyboard, bezel and hard drive then 1 by 1 added the DVD drive, ram, hard drive ...etc. and each time used the remote control to power on the laptop. It worked!!! Eventually I had everything back together with the power button board and cable completely removed and the laptop was up and running. I put some superglue on the cracked power button and plan to order a new power button board and cable along with a new bezel and power button if necessary but for now we've got everything working and all the important files she was working on at the time have been recovered. I did pull the hard drive the first day and put it in a portable USB shell and copy all the files to our backup drive. Anyway if the same kind of things are happening to yours at least you won't have to go thru everything i did. Good luck and i probably won't be back very often if at all to reply to any questions or to be told how i could've done it easier/more efficiently.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Power2dapeeps! lol

Hi,
Try the following.
Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
IDT Audio Driver - Windows 7.
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu. Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete. Then 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 and check if the mute led now changes colour correctly.

Sound Issues HP Pavilion dv6-6158nr Entertainment Notebook PC

Hello,
I have HP Pavilion dv6-6158nr Entertainment Notebook PC with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit OS. Recently I noticed issues with how my volume control works. I am not sure if it's an application issue (Firefox 9/10) or audio drivers. While watching playing an audio file or watching video my default playback device is set to speaker, but as soon as I plugin my headphones both headphones and speakers will go to mute. Some times disabling and re-enabling the device will solve this issue, and other than that I also have to restart Firefox to get the sound back.
Tried installing all the available updates form windows, also reinstalled/update the sound drivers as n admin with no possible fix. Also as shown in picture below, when I try to make a Google call using Firefox I use built-in mike an headphones. During that time headphones icon will be appeared in the window shown below listed as communication device and disable both audio in/out.
Let me know if any further information is required.
Thanks.

First uninstall the audio driver:
Click Start and type device in the search field, then select Device Manager. >> Audio, video and game controlar >> right click and uninstall all values under it >> restart >> download and install the following drivers:

My laptop ( hp pavilion dv6-6b27nr entertainment PC) willl not start up. the screen is blank.

I have a HP Pavilion dv6-6b27nr Entertainment PC (Win 7) It would start up with the message "BIOS RECOVERY" . It then would not start up at all. I took it to a repair shop, they contacted HP and got it working. i took it home and it worked just fine the same day, however when I tried to use it the next day the screen is just blank. i tried the take out the battery process with no effect. i then tried tapping the f11 key at start up. the fan came on and it made some noise, but has failed to show anything on the screen. When I turn it on the caps lock key blinks continually in a sequence of two blinks. (When i brought it home from the repair shop I downloaded malwarebytes and quarantined 87 pups etc. )

HI @owe ,
Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help!
I grasp that you received a bios error and the notebook would not start. You took it to a repair shop, who contacted HP and got it back up and running. When you took it home it ran fine. You downloaded malwarebytes, installed and ran it, and quarantined 87 pups etc. When you tried to use it the next day you get a blank screen and the lights blink twice.
Here is a link to Computer does not start and the LEDs blink or the computer beeps . Two blinks again refers to the bios.
You should not be having a bios problem so soon after just having it repaired.
There may be a hardware issue that is causing this and I would test the hardware rule that possibility out. Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 7, Vista)
If you are still unable to determine any problems, you would have some options.
You can try to restore the bios yourself. Restoring the BIOS
As you just got it back from the repair shop, you could take it back to them to see what they say.
As you stated that the repair shop called HP, you may be able to acquire a reference or case number to refer to and call them yourself. Just to clarify you do not need the case number to contact HP support but it would allow them to more easily locate any case notes from the previous call.
Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside of the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region. Phone Assist Worldwide

Solved Crackling Problem in Windows 7 (SB 24-bit USB External, HP Pavilion dv6 1124-ca laptop).

I'm one of many users who has had problems with the sound crackling problem with their sound card after upgrading to Windows 7.
I was previously on Windows Vista running 5. with 24-bit, 96000Hz sample rate Studio Quality with no problems at all. When I upgraded to Windows 7 RC, Windows was able to automatically find a driver for my external USB sound card, but when playing music, I always got a constant crackling sound coming from the speakers while trying to put the card in anything above 2. or and when putting it in 24-bit 96000Hz, the crackling only got worse. Installing the Beta drivers on the Creative site didn't work either... still had the crackling. I searched around for the past several months for solutions to no avail.
Then today, I was surfing the HP website (I have a HP Pavilion dv6 24-ca laptop) to see if they had added Windows 7 drivers to their support site and they did... and so I started downloading all available Windows 7 drivers for my specific laptop. When I first installed Windows 7 RC, it had installed it's own drivers for everything (on-board sound etc.). After replacing the Windows 7 installed "High Definition Audio Device" drivers with the HP supplied "IDT High Definition Audio CODEC" drivers... I'm not sure if the on board sound driver has anything at all to do with the crackling on the Soundblaster but I replaced the drivers anyway. I also installed another driver called "AMD USB Filter" that was supplied by the HP website for Windows 7 which is another driver that I thought might help with the problem. Other drivers installed were "ENE CIR Reciever Driver" and "Realtek Card Reader Driver" but those have nothing to do with the sound card.
After installing the drivers from the HP website, I no longer get the crackling from the speakers when playing in 5.. I am also now able to select 24-bit 96000Hz sample rate without crackling as well I am very happy to have finally solved the problem. So to anyone having similar problems, I suggest you check out your manufacturers website to see if they have any drivers available for you... I have a feeling the AMD USB Filter is what solved the problem... but who knows.
Hope this helps other HP users!

Try this video let me know if it helps you out.

If you can hear the music through the speakers but not the headphones I would suggest using an AUX cable because seems the sound isn't being transmitted over.
Just a friendly note here. Don't buy the wireless turtle beaches I have the x32s and I'm continuously buying batteries !

HP Pavilion dv6-6c54nr Entertainment Notebook PC

Hello,
Recently my laptop (HP Pavilion dv6-6c54nr Entertainment Notebook PC ) had a problem and I needed to set it to it's fabric settings. I installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and the computer drivers listed in the page of this product. The computer has 4 speakers, but there's not sound coming from the frontal speakers. What can I do? Thanks.

Hi Krosado14,
I understand you are having an issue with the 4 speakers after doing a factory reset on your computer.
If you follow this page to the driver downloads and click on Audio.
Download (both) and install, it should resolve your issue.

Pavilion dv6-3227cl entertainment notebook powers on but only has a black screen

An HP Pavilion DV6-3227cl Entertainment Notebook, that is approximately 2 years old and is running Windows 7 Home Premium, AMD Vision Premium, will power on but not boot up. The fan runs and the "caps lock" light flashes once approximately every 4 seconds but all I get is a black screen with no cursor or error messages. There are no beeps. The power supply indicator illuminates (white) for about a second, then turns to a dim orange when the battery is installed, but remains white when the battery is removed. However, the two indicator lights (I'm not sure what they are for) next to the USB port nearest the power indicator light illuminate as follows: the one on the left (as you are looking at the right side of the notebook) is white; the one on the right is orange. Both are fully illuminated (not dimly as the power indicator light). The power indicator light is not as bright as the other white indicator near the USB port. The notebook has booted up and appeared to be running one time since having this problem started, but I have not been able to get it to boot up again. I am told the battery is bad (it's my brother in law's notebook), but is it possible the problem is with the power source rather than the processor or motherboard? I appreciate your comments/advice on this matter. Thank you.
This question was solved.

Hi fejevitzky,
Your question, "Based upon that, I believe you are telling me you do not think it is the BIOS--is that correct?" Yes, as long as you dont see any "white" light reveal from LCD bezel back side while with blank screen state. LCD bezel is the cover around LCD, most design put LED modeule at the bottom side next to LCD. While back light is not on during boot up sequence, that means system doesnt have chance to get BIOS program running. It also means, it stuck at state of hardware bring up. Normally motherboard related.
I quickly checked hp.com and found some link that may help. Or 1-800-HP invent (1-800-474-6836) can save times. This forum only intends to quick/simply reply users questions. About another service and repair charge, I have to give you other links to reach.

Voltage converter for Pavilion dm1-3020us Entertainment Laptop in the UK?

Will I need a step-down voltage converter to recharge my Pavilion dm1-3020us Entertainment Laptop while in the UK?
Thanks

Hi,
If you check the Adapter block, you should find it will accept a voltage input range of 100v - 240v. If this is the case, then all you will need is a Two pin to Three pin converter for the plug to be able to use UK sockets.

HP Pavilion dv6-3236nr Entertainment Notebook PC

Can my HP Pavilion dv6-1352dx Entertainment Notebook PC be used with a car's 12 volt sucket

Can my HP Pavilion dv6-1352dx Entertainment Notebook PC be plugged into a 12 volt Car sucket , possibly with a special adapter ?

Yes it is called an inverter...one end plugs in the cigarette lighter and the other end has a standard AC plug like in your house.
http://www.amazon.com/s?ie=UTF8&rh=n%3A172282%2Ck%3Ainverter%20cigarette%20lighter%20power&page=1
You can use this with the regular ac adapter.
They also make a dc (auto) adapter that looks like your regular AC adapter except it plugs into a cigarette lighter:
