Restoring Video setting in the K430 BIOS without a screen

So I wanted to use my HDMI output on my K430. However, it didn't work so I updated my Graphics driver (official NVIDIA) and tried again. I still didn't get any signal so I opened the BIOS and went to the VIDEO section. I changed the option of my graphics device (I don't really know what the option was called) and now I can't get a signal anymore (no matter what I plug in.) Can anyone describe me how to get back to the VIDEO section step by step? I mean, could you write it like "F1 -> 3 X right arrow key, Enter ETC"? I've forgotten how often I had to press the keys. Or do a Video of the Bios. Any other solution is also welcome. Thanks!

Hi kurayami, welcome to the forums,
please take a look at the following training page for the K430, in the list on the left you will find a BIOS simulator which is hopefully exactly what you need.

    If you find anything out please share.  I have flash projects (SWF) files created in Captivate 5 that play fine in Flash and Dreamweaver, but freeze up on the web in safari, firefox, opera and chrome.  Even files that used to play just fine.  This upgrade has been a nightmare - I have spent hours troubleshooting to no avail.  It does not seem to be a problem for windows users - only macs.

  • I flashed the BIOS on my dv4 2045dx with the F17 BIOS, NOW Black screen, PLEASE HELP

    I flashed the BIOS on my dv4 2045dx with the F17 BIOS, NOW Black screen. Now even when pressing the windows  and the B key when powering, the screen stay black. Lights, fan, HD, USB drive with HP_TOOLS partition and bios backup flashes goes on for some time with some beeping every 15 sec.
    I try to plug it on to a external monitor without luck.
    What's next? Can I reload a BIOS from a CD? Anyone have an idea?
    Thanks

    Hello KenyaKitten
    I understand after flashing your bios the PC will not boot.  I will do all I can to help with this issue.
    First thing let’s do a hard reset, remove all devices from the PC including battery and power cable. Once all is removed press and hold power button for 15-20 seconds. Once that is done insert only battery and charging cable.  Try to boot now, if getting same response move to next line below.
    Next, I want you to try is to boot into the bios menu. Turn the PC off and as you turn it on tap the F10 key repeatedly. Hopefully this boots you into the bios menu. Screen will look a little bluish grey and have setup utility across the top.
    Also if the PC starts beeping at you while you’re tapping you can stop. Now if you reach that screen you may get a box that say save changes and exit choose no. (Note your mouse doesn't work on this screen so you would need to use the arrow keys)
    After that press F9 another box will up come about reset defaults, accept that. Then press F10 to save and exit. The notebook will attempt to boot.
    Also please inform me if you notice the number lock or caps lock keys blinking off and on. Also please let me know if the PC beeps at you while tapping F10 regardless if the bios comes up or not.
    Please respond at your earliest convenience when you get further information.
    Thank you.

    Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.  You won't lose any data by doing this.

  • How do I set up the Time Capsule without an internet connection

    How do I set up the Time Capsule as a wireless hard drive without an internet connection.   I am in a office situation in which I cannot access my work network.  I need to be able to share files on the Time Capsule over the wire connection.

    Are you using a v6 uitlity.. because it is a toy.. ??
    Get v5 utility and then you can hold down the option key and select the right mode.
    If you have lion, just install it.. For ML follow this.
    How to load 5.6 into ML.
    1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
    2. Download and install unpkg.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Run unpkg on the desktop.. it is very simple.. drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. drill down.. applications utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
    You cannot uninstall 6.1 so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. so just ignore the toyland version.. the plastic hammer.. and start using 5.6.. a real tool.

  • Can i set up the apple watch without an iphone

  • Does the iPod work without a screen?

    Hello all, I am asking for your help.
    I have an 80 gig 5.5 gen iPod video and the screen was recently broken. After the screen was cracked (I don't know how this happened), the iPod quit working altogether. So I decided to remove the screen and see if the ipod would work. It kind of works, but the music won't play and the click wheel doesn't click. All it does is fire up in disk mode, and the buttons click when you press them (an audible click is heard from the clicker inside). I am wondering if this is normal for the ipod to not work when the screen is missing, or should it still be functional? I would like to know this for the simple reason of whether or not to buy a new screen and put it in, or is my ipod broken for good.
    I don't want to spend the money on a new screen unless it will make my ipod work again.
    Thank you in advance, and any comments are welcome.
    Update:
    I just plugged the screen back in and the iPod is doing the same thing, and the backlight always stays on. Is this a defect of the broken screen, or is the whole ipod wrecked?
    Message was edited by: Lafanda

    It should work. Reports I have read from people with broken screens on these boards usually say they can not see anything since the screen is cracked, but the iPod will still play fine.
    Perhaps you are not hitting the right menu items (on the display you can not see) in order to get it to start playing something?
    You might try resetting it first...
    Put the hold switch to the OFF/White position. Now toggle it ON/orange then back off again. Then press and hold both the MENU and center buttons on the iPod and hold them for a good 15 seconds or so. Your iPod should reboot starting with the Apple Logo screen, which of course you can not see. But you should find if it is rebooting that the click wheel will no longer give any sounds for a good minute or two while it reboots.
    So just keep whirling the click wheel around every 30 seconds or so until you hear the clicking noise again. Once you do, then you should be able to whirl it clockwise which would put you on the last item of the main menu of your iPod. Hopefully this is the Shuffle library one on yours. Hit play and then wait while it loads up the music and see if it starts playing.

  • TS4036 is there a way to restore one item in the back up without erasing the entire ios devise or can you view your back up from your computer to save to the computer?

    I erased an important recording off of my iphone 5.  It was backed up to the cloud but I don't want to erase everything else to restore this.  Is there a way to restore one item or is there a way to go into the cloud on the computer and download the recording?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    One of the cons of backups is that you have to restore the whole backup in order to restore one item.
    As you have a backup, open Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. After erasing the device, it will ask you to restore a backup, so follow the steps. It's long but it's the only way to get this video back

  • I'm having a small problem when trying to restore my macbook to the factory settings without the disk

    Hey, everyone. Just a quick question. I know that to reset a macbook to it's factory settings without the disk you press the OPTION key during startup; however, when you do so, apparently you see 2 hard drives and one says "recovery." When I do it, I only see one hard drive that does not say recovery. Any one know why this could be? Thanks so much for any help offered.

    that option is only for 10.7 and higher.  for 10.6 you need the disk.
    I have 10.8 installed on this computer...I know it didn't come with it, it came with Snow Leopard....Anyway I've updated it, and when I boot if I press and hold the Option key, it still just boots off the drive.  The only way I can get it to spring to life and do anything else is to press and hold Command + R in which case it then goes to the recovery option with the ability to restore OS X...Am I missing something??

  • I changed the memory settings in the KT6V Bios.

    I changed the memory settings in the KT6V Bios without flashing to the latest bios update.  Now the system won't post and of course I learned afterwards you shouldn't mess with memory settings.
    I did everything, cleared the cmos(several times with and without the battery), also tried to do the bios recovery but that didn't work.  And yes I have the 4-pin plugged in, I also tested all the parts on another motherboard and they work fine with it.
    So is the board fubared?  I just bought it the other day, it's a long drive to take it back where I got it from so if anyone knows if there is a possible way to recover it please let me know!

It did not work for me. Good luck. Post back with your results.
    Ya I'm getting the four red led's and I've tried everything and still no post.  Geez, I can't believe this, I've never seen a motherboard die by just changing the memory setting from normal to fast...this is quite irritating.

  • HT1689 Can I set up an ITunes account without a credit card number?

    We are using IPads in a school setting and having trouble setting up the ITunes account without a credit card number.  We are only allowed to download free apps, the school is not paying for any, therefore we do not need to have a credit card for purchases.  Is there a way to get around this so that we can still download the free apps onto the IPads?
    Thank you

    If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID. 
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free apps without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)
    Regards.

  • What video setting should I use?

    I'm converting videos using Aieesoft, and am wondering what video setting is the best to use for playing on an ipad 4?  I don't want the files to be huge.  If I can I'd like to keep them under 1 gig each.

    First, decde how you are going to deliver this production to your client. Then tell us what that delivery medium will be. Then we'll have some advice for you.
    See the section in the FCP manual on using still images. You need to understand that in video there are only pixels, no dots per inch or lines per inch. Those terms are meaningless in video. You wil sand at a size in raw pixels that is only slightly larger than your delivery format.
