Pavilion zt 1172 notebook

I have a pavilion zt1172 notebook which i am trying to upgrade to usb 2.0 can anyone instruct me as to the best pcmcia card to purchase, i only need it to operate my logitech web cam/hp printer and my remote mouse.

That particular model uses a Texas Instruments cardbus controller which has serious problems with certain usb 2.0 controllers. You need to find a usb 2.0 cardbus (pcmcia) card that uses the VIA chipset and not the NEC chipset. Whatever you try, however, the usb 2.0 pc card is going to be buggy. Also try to get one that has an external power cable that plugs into the usb 1.1 slot on the laptop and then plugs into the center of the usb 2.0 pc card. Lastly, the fewer usb 2.0 ports on the card the better; try to find one with only 2 usb 2.0 ports. Via chipset, external power, 2 ports, OK?

Upgrade for HP Pavilion HDX9300 CTO Notebook PC

Good morning people!
I have one HP Pavilion HDX9300 CTO Notebook PC and have some questions:
I am wanting to upgrade my HD drive for a SSD model and increase my DDR memory.
I know my memory operates at a frequency of 667 MHz but need to know if my notebook includes an upgrade to 8GB and what would be the ideal brand of memory card to do this.
I also need models of HD 480GB SSD compatible with my notebook.
Thank you all and sorry for english, I'm brazilian.

I checked out you service manual and it says the maximum amount of memory it can take is 4 GB or two 2 GB sticks.
I also went to Crucial and there memory advisor does confirm this.
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01279508.pdf
http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.aspx?model=Pavilion%20HDX9300%20CTO&Cat=RAM
Crucial also gives you a bunch of different options for an SSD as well. It says that the 512 GB SSD will work, but it is expensive. Stick with a quality brand name like Crucial or Kingston. Avoid buying from e-bay.
When it comes to memory though just because the manual says the max is 4 GB does not mean that it can take more.
You can try installing two 4 GB sticks and it may work, it won't hurt the laptop to try, but there is no guarantee that it will work.
Keep in mind too that if you're running a 32 bit operating system it won't recognise a little more then 3 GB of memory anyway.

Hdmi port not working on HP Pavilion g7-2240us Notebook PC

I can't get my HDMI port on my on HP Pavilion g7-2240us Notebook PC to work... Can someone please help me? (it's windows 8)

This is ridiculous - the number of hits that come up for "Pavilion g7 HDMI not working" is astounding; yet finding a useful answer, or anything resembling a useful answer other than a document that instructs 4-yr olds on how to locate an HDMI port, is impossible.
HAS ANYONE FOUND A SOLUTION TO THIS? Or is this a rampant model-wide issue that HP would rather not acknowledge?

HP Pavilion dv6500 Entertainment Notebook PC series Operating system not found

Hello to all how are you doing guys doing today I'm having a problem and need the help from the tech world. So i have a Hp Pavilion dv6500 cto notebook. I started it up and got a black screen stating "Operating System Not Found". I couldnt get into safe mode to recover back to a safe point, i was able to get into the bios system to do a memory and Hard drive test, my memory test came back as a Pass but my Hard drive came back as a fail and stated "Replace Hard Drive".
Now i went out bought a new WD 500GB 5400rpm hard drive for the laptop, i installed it and did a Hard Drive test to make sure it was good and the test came back as a Pass. Now i had this laptop for years since 2007 and it broke just a few months ago, i just got the new hard drive yestarday and was playing doctor last night. When i got the laptop as a gift i was only given a recovery disk which did boot up and gave me the install now option and repair computer option. I chose the install now option and it was starting to install but then got this error message "Windows cannot open the required file D:\Sources\Install.wim. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070002." I read that you cant install windows from a recovery disk so now im back to square one.
So current status is I got a new hard drive that pass the bios test, memory test was a pass. I have no windows disk other then the windows vista recovery disk i tried but failed to install windows. I also tried a windows 7 disk from work but the disk wouldnt boot up came back with a message stating that disk couldnt be read there may be problem with the cd dvd drive or hard drive, but when i put in the windows vista recovery disk that boot up no problem. i just cant install window with it. So Im stuck with a black screen stating no operating system is not found. Note that i havent change the boot up line up back to hard drive to see if it would boot up the new hard drive but i dought it would change anything since its a brand new hard drive with nothing on it.
If someone could help me with step by step like how to get an operating system on my new hard drive. My wife has a laptop but with no cd drive so i would need instruction to boot get it on the usb. Hope i was helpful with my problem.

You have only tried questionable disks. You could order a recovery disk from HP but I am not even sure they still have Vista recovery disks. You could also buy a Windows 7 OEM disk and try that. it will cost you a bit but will be legal. What version of Vista is it? You can also try to find a Vista install disk and use the Key Code on the bottom of the laptop if it is still legible. Here is a link to downloadable .iso files you can use to make a Vista install disk that will activate with your Key Code:

HP PAVILION TX2000 ENTERTAINMENT NOTEBOOK PC ISSUES!!!

LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT.I BOUGHT A TX2000 LAPTOP A YEAR AND A HALF AGO.THE THOUGHT OF IT MADE ME HAPPY SINCE THIS LAPTOP COST MUCH AND I WAS ONE OF THE FEW WHO WAS ABLE TO BUY IT.AFTER A YEAR AND 2 MONTHS,IT SUDDENLY HANGED IN THE MIDDLE OF MY WORK AND WON'T TURN ON.CONSIDERING THAT IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY,HP DID NOT GIVE A HELL OUT OF MY QUESTIONS.SO I JUST CONSIDERED THAT MAYBE BECAUSE I OVER USED IT OR WHATEVER.BUT AFTER I READ COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME MODEL,I SUDDENLY REALIZED THAT IT IS NOT MY FAULT BUT THE FAULT OF THE COMPANY.
PROBLEM:AFTER TURNING THE MACHINE ON,FAN AND LIGHTS ARE ON BUT IT NOTHING WILL APPEAR ON SCREEN.
I TRIED PLUGGING IT TO A DIFFERENT MONITOR AND STILL NOTHING.THEN I REMEMBERED THAT NO MATTER HOW COLD THE PLACE OR ROOM WHERE I WAS USING THE MACHINE,THE HEAT OF THE LAPTOP KEEPS ON INCREASING!!!
TELL ME,IS IT THE CUSTOMER'S FAULT?I,TOGETHER WITH SOME WHO I AM SURE WILL SUPPORT ME, DEMANDS A RECALL ON THIS PRODUCT SINCE AS WE CONNECT STORIES,IT OCCURS AFTER USING IT FOR A YEAR.COINCIDENCE OR INTENTION???
PLEASE HP,IF YOU DON'T WANT TO LOSE CUSTOMERS AND LOSE TRUST, PLEASE HEED THIS REQUEST OF MINE AND RECALL THE PRODUCT!!!
PRODUCT NAME:HP PAVILION TX2000 ENTERTAINMENT NOTEBOOK PC

I also have the tx2000 with nothing but problems. If you get the blank screen here is what you need to do:
Turn the computer off and flip it over. Blow dry through the vents on medium heat for about a minute. Keep the blowdryer moving. Wait a minute and then turn it back on. The heat from blow dryer warms up the chip and it will work again. I have to do this every once in a while with mine. And also make sure you buy a laptop cooling fan for yours. I have mine on continuously and it helps, although it still overheats on occasion.
Here is a class action lawsuit that was just settled: http://forum.notebookreview.com/hp-compaq/521913-nvidia-reaches-settlement-class-action-suit-affecti...
Unfortunately for some reason it doesn't look like the tx2000 is included. I may just take them to small claims court.

HP Pavilion tx2510us Entertainment Notebook PC

I have a HP Pavilion tx2510us Entertainment Notebook PC (original installed with Windows Vista) upgraded to Windows 7. When I power on the machine all I get is a black scrren. I can hear the fan, and see lites on but the screen stays black, I have taken all peripherals out, I have rtaken the memory out and put it back, I have treied an alternate monitor, I have tried to get into bios. I have also done a hard reset (took battery out, unconnected the ac power and held the power button down). An recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Hello JORDANWILL822. I understand you're unable to get your notebook to properly boot.
This is definitely a hardware problem. You're unable to get a picture on the internal or external monitors. However, the notebook appears to be powering on and otherwise running. This means that it is likely that the video card is no longer functioning properly.
I would suggest checking the cable connection first. Here is a link to your notebook's Maintenance and Service Guide. This covers the disassembly of the notebook and would be invaluable for checking the connection.
If the connection is secure then you likely need to have the notebook repaired.
If the notebook isn't in warranty I suggest taking it to a local computer repair shop. This sort of problem is really best diagnosed hands-on. Many times these shops will even diagnose the issue while you're in the store.
If the notebook is in warranty or you'd like to inquire about a repair through HP I suggest contacting support. If you're in the US/Canada the number is 1-800-474-6836. If you're in another part of the world you'll need to visit HP Support Worldwide to get your region's contact information.
I will keep an eye out for your next reply. I hope you have a great day!

Hello mike_farhat. I understand you're looking for drivers for your G6.
Unfortunately there are no drivers available specifically for Windows 7 32-bit. However, here is a link to the drivers for Windows 7 64-bit.
Another thing you could try is to install both the HP Software Framework and HP Support Assistant. Then you can run HP Support Assistant and the application will scan your PC and automatically download and install any drivers which are available.
I hope this helps. Have a great day!

HP Pavilion 15-n221sa Notebook PC touch pad glitching frequently

HP Pavilion 15-n221sa Notebook PC, windows 8.1, 8GB ram (7.89 usable), 64 bit os, 1.80 GHz intel core i3 processor
I got my new laptop that I bought recently (3-4 weeks, give or take) and I've noticed that my touch pad us acting up OFTEN. Sometimes it brings up the charms bar and randomly opens an option while other times it just straight up freezes. I can tell that it is the touch pad freezing and not the pc because I can still use the keyboard to do things on my laptop and I use a usb mouse that always works without fail.
I have installed quite a few things but I have done frequent full system scans using norton internet security and it has "removed" 1 virus so far. I haven't done a malware scan but I'm getting to it right now.
My question is has a spirit possessed my laptop or is my touchpad broken?

Hi lolful64,
Welcome to the HP Community, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I will be happy to help with the TouchPad freezing. I don't think that you need to call the Ghostbusters quite yet. Is it only freezing when you try access Charms Bar or does it freeze at other times? Start by reinstalling your Synaptics TouchPad Driver.

HP Pavilion g6-2101tu Notebook PC ,After BOIS update, Is HP Recovery Manager option available?

Hi,
I have recently installed BIOS and other drivers update through HP support assistent for the first time. During the installation a drive partition has been created with the name "HP_TOOL drive:f ".
I need your guidance for the recovery of system in the future and want to know about such partition which has been created automatically during update.
Eariler i have once recovered my system using tool which was provided by HP RECOVERY MANAGER through "esc + f11" keys. Hp recommands that we should not make any partition of drive in order to recover your system. if we make partition, we may lose system recovery through HP RECOVERY MANAGER.
I had 2 partition (Drive :c and Drive :d)of the drive by default from the begining when i have purchase my notebook but Now I have 3 (Drive: c,d,f).
Drive; c has system file while Drive: d has recovery and Drive: f contains HP_tool files.
"Please note thatI have not manually created any aprtition of drive till now."
My problems are as follows--
1. Is drive: f is a real partition of drive ?
2. Can i able to recover my system using my BIOS setting i.e esc + f11 key through HP RECOVERY MANAGER?
3. If i recover my system using HP RECOVERY MANAGER in future, i will have to download BIOS and drivers update again or what?
4: suggest me what should i do after BIOS update and with Drive:f to recover my system in the future?
My System details are as follows--
HP Pavilion g6-2101tu Notebook PC,
Product no. B6U26PA#ACJ
RAM - 2GB
Hard disk drive - 500 GB
Opreating System - Windows 7- 64 Bit Home Basic
Partition Drive :d - recovery.
Please give me a best response.,,,,,,,,,, Thanks

Yes, before Windows logo. At the first screen after powering on the machine tap Esc to bring up the Menu- same screen where you use Esc + F11 for Recovery.
Diagnostics is helpful many times in troubleshooting issues-such as testing memory or Hard drive.

During creation of 3rd DVD-R, Hp Recovery Creation Media successfully reads blank DVD and prepares files to be burn but it fails to burn these files on 3rd DVD.
Further, DVD autometically is ejected with massage "We are experiencing errors in Recovery Media Creation. please try again."
Please Help me! how to fix this problem.
I have also tried the following as per guidlines on HP support Website--
1. disabled User Control Account.
2. temporary disabled my antivirus.
3. i have manually run chkdisk for Partition drive D which is my recovery drive.
4. i have also change and tried different DVD to burn but i faced same issue.
Please note that I have never modified or encrypted my partition drive of recovery but i have recently Updated BIOS and Drivers form HP.
My system details are as follows--
OS- windows 7 home basic (64 bits)

Please help me and let me know what should i do to create subsequent DVD.

Hi,
Once again thank you for your valuable feedback and support!
The product name and model no. i have mentioned in the post are correct. i have also try to locate them behind battery of my notebook. If you think it may be wrong, you can check for this model no. on HP support website here
I have also tried esc+ F2 and run the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics but i did not find option "Component Test" and therefore unable to locate optical drive option.
I have understood your statement regarding benefit of USB tumbdrive over DVDs and much appreciated.
thanks you for that.
I personally want to say that i was unaware about the fact for these non branded DVDs. The shopkeeper (notebook showroom) told me that these DVDs are good to create Recovery Images because they also use these DVDs to create Recovery Images.
I have purchased non branded DVDs but it does not mean i wanted cheapest solution for Recovery. simply i wanted to Recover my system using best DVDs.
Well, now let me know how can i undo the creation of media which i have created in those two DVDs successfully in order to create Recovery Images on USB Thumbdrive ?
How can i locate Opticle Drive Test?
I am waiting for you response.......

Sound from speakers & headphones is monaural NOT stereo HP Pavilion TS 15 Notebook PC Win 8.1

My HP Pavilion TS 15 Notebook PC is only 2 weeks old I found out soon after I got it that any test I do of the left and right speakers or headphones is not stereo. When I click on the left speaker I hear the sound in the center and when I click on the right speaker I hear the sound in the center. I have tried a test from the internet same results. However, if I connect a bluetooth audio device then when I click on the left speak I hear the sound on the left only and when I click on the right speaker I hear the sound in the in the right only. Also when I boot the computer with Ubuntu 13.10 there is stereo distinct sounds from either the left or right when I run the left right test.
At first and before I installed Ubuntu HP was sure it was a hardware problem and sent a tech out to install a circuit board which the headphone plug was on, thinking the jack was defective and mixing the left and right channels. That didn't fix it. I went to the Realtek website and ran their program which removed all traces of the sound driver and installed the newest one they had, didn't help. Hp log into my computer and cruised around but found nothing wrong. I have played with every sound setting there is, no change. The final solution they suggest is to reinstall Windblows 8.1. I really don't want to do this as I just did it to transfer from my win 7 notebook to this one using windows easy transfer. FYI this computer is one HP sent me to replace the previous G6 Win 7 notebook which had unresolvable problems, worse than that this is the 3rd computer HP has send me to replace previous ones which each had their own set of unresolvable problems. So I haven't had very good luck with HP computers!
Anyway I am left with maybe a couple possibilities. 1. Reload windblows, I cannot use easy transfer because it no longer works on win 8.1 (maybe file history will work though I'm not sure) 2. Try windows refresh which won't remove as much of what I have installed. 3. Maybe someone has experienced a similar problem and can share here.
Any help is appreciated.
Michael
UPDATE:
HP wanted me to do a clean reinstallation of Win 8.1, sent me the disks to do it, but the disks were defective and wouldn't go on to the second disk. I used the Disks I had made from the computer they worked and the reinstallation was completed. That didn't resolve the problem! They decided to send me a replacement computer.
The new computer is a HP ENVY TS 15 Notebook PC with win 8.1 updated. Same problem except the speakers seem to be in stereo but the headphone jack is still mono. I chatted with HP last evening and was told this is a "Known problem and the fault of Windows 8.1" Can someone tell me if this is true? I have doubts but really want to know.
Michael

Hp replaced this computer for me due to this problem, however, the Envy (dumb name) they sent me to replace it had the same problem. I did fine a solution and here is the web address http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-PC-Sound-and-Audio/envy-17-headphones-in-mono-not-stereo/td-p/...
Read down a few posts for the solution by making changes to the registry. But, my problem and the solution was with a win 8.1 computer and I do not know it it applies to Win 7. Unless, you have the same sound card and driver, which I doubt. If you haven't removed the sound card driver and reinstalled it with the one on the HP website do try that.
Good luck.
Michael
