Tv tuner in dv7-1260us

Is it possible to install one? Also this model has the ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics installed, is it possible to upgrade?
Thanks

Hi,
Here is a link to a web document that explains all about TV tuners for laptops. There are numerous types, depending on what you want to watch and the source you will use for a signal.

You basically have to disassemble the laptop in order to install the antenna? Not sure its worth it for over the air reception. Would you happen to know if the tuner is compatible with basic cable tv?

How do i hook up my hp photosmart printer to my hp pavilion dv7-1260us?

How do I hook up my hp photosmart printer to work online with my hp pavilion laptop dv7-1260us? I hooked it up and it will not relay to the printer to print. I have the USB cable hooked up and the main elec plug hooked up to the wall outlet. I also tried installing the disk by downloading it and it would not copy it. What can I do? Can it work with my laptop?

ITunes dosen't recognize the internet when I conect the IPhone 3GS

Hi
I have a problem with Itunes, I have a new HP Pavilion dv7-1260us using vista. Every time I conect my new I phone 3GS that I got just a few days ago I can not register my phone or update my Itunes version because I got a message saying that I am not conected to the internet, but this is not true. I am totally conected with no problem but for some reason Itunes doesn't know that. What is incredible is that Itunes store works perfect and how is that possible if the Itunes said that I am not conected. Also is impossible for me to get the any album artwork, if I try I got a message saying that the Artwork could not be found (error -609). I told to apple support by phone and they recomend me to disable the antivirus. I did it and that din't work. Also try installing the Itunes again with the antivirus disable and nothing happens.
Please help me with this.
Thank you

Vista, it's gotta be Vista's fault!

DVD/BluRay disc will not play

I'm guessing this is a hardware issue, but could be wrong. I own a hp dv7 1260us. It's been with me to Afghanistan and back. For a while now I've noticed it's slow progression of imcompatibily with movie discs(DVD/BluRay), data(software) works fine. What might be the problem? Drivers for the disc drive say they are up to date. Should I it 7 on there instead ov vista? Or is there a work around that won't cost me money legally?
This question was solved.

Hi,
How many time did you change zone on the player ? This may also cause the problem too.

3.error message--- when i turn on my laptop it starts beep sound continuously after hp screen and touch pad also not working properly cursor continuously goes down automatically....
4. i jus installed windows updates.....

Hiya,
Is the beep sound happen while loading Windows? Is it coming from the speakers?
Have you tried your cursor in the Recovery Manager to see if it's a software issue? When the BIOS HP logo is on the screen press F11 to load recovery manager. If mouse works normally then you have a software issue, if issue still percists it is most likely hardware based.

It's shutting off for no reason, wont burn dvd 1260ux

I have a hp pavilion dv7-1260us and it came with vista but stupid me put on windows 7 which so far was a good thing, I did have a little problem of having to put all the drivers back and that was crappy because I had to put in 32 bit and 64 bit and now my dvd burner won't burn anything, i have the covert dvd x program and i've even tried just burning from the desktop and it gets to the end and says something is wrong or that I need the firmware updated but when I try to run the device manager it says everything is fine, but nothing is fine because it doesn't want to burn and it was fine two weeks ago and then bam out of nowhere it just stops. I tried reinstalling all the drivers, but I can't find the firmware for the dvd burner and now it's just shutting off. I was running World of Warcraft and I thought at first it was hot because the fan came and then it just shut off, and it was long time it was on. But then it died just after an hour of playing. I don't know much about computers so i'm freaking out. I got this computer used but it was still new in the box, the guy was trustworthy, but I"m so dissapointed in this, its' supposed to be a good computer and now it sucks. Help please please....I'm sorry if this the wrong place to post this, I don't know what to do.

I need anykind of help, could it be my computer just sucks, or could it be that the firmware does need to be reinstalled but how come I can't find anything for my blue ray dvd player burner, and why would the computer just shut of playing a game, that makes no sense.

Windows 7 RTM drivers for sound control buttons and quick launch buttons on TX2

In the past two days this forum has helped me find several drivers for the TX2-1027CA tablet. Now I'd like to try to get two more - and I expect this will be more difficult to find, but here goes....
Is there a driver for the sound buttons (sound down, sound up, and mute) on the body of the tablet? Currently, with no driver, it has no effect to push them.
Is there a driver for the quick launch buttons (mediasmart, screen orientation, and so on) on the screen of the tablet? Pushing these also has no effect. Even better would be drivers that allow me to assign my own program choices, but I'll settle for the basic original functions.
Looking forward to any links as this software appears!

Hi Daniel. You seem to know what you're talking about, so perhaps you can help me. I bought my Pavilion dv7-1260us a mere 5 weeks before HP began offering its Windows 7 upgrade offer. Consequently, I had to purchase a retail version to upgrade. Now, I cannot reinstall the original programs and features my laptop came with (specifically, the MediaSmart soft-touch button above my keyboard will not work, and I've lost the Cyberlink DVD Suite 6 program entirely).
Do you happen to know how I may reinstall the Cyberlink DVD Suite 6 program and get my MediaSmart soft-touch key to work again? No one at HP Customer Care (including their Case Managers) can help. When I contacted Cyberlink, they told me I had to contact HP (vicious circle there), OR I have to purchase the program ($120 I don't have). I bought my laptop for school, and had to upgrade to Windows 7 because Vista Home Premium kept crashing (usually right in the middle of an online exam).
I would really like to have ALL of the programs and features working properly, but HP Customer Care will not help me unless I revert back to the unstable Vista Home Premium.
I greatly appreciate your assistance and hope you have a solution for me.
Sincerely,
Michael Walker

DV7 Integrated TV Tuner

What is the part number for the DV7 Integrated TV Tuner card?

the message no tuner detected is a problem with windows media center. If you try other software you will see that the tuner is working!
I am currently on with Microsoft tech support level 2 ? they are now on their second day trying to fix my computer
my computer is a pavillion m8187c and after 6 months of supurb service the "no tuner" message appeared. I have done everthing suggested on the HP help site but to no avail. downloaded drivers for the tuner card from everywhere including toe original drivers from drive D. I also went to services and restarted the services which are windows media center. I then saw that windows 7 has more controls available to the user in wmc. so I upgraded to windows 7 which gave more drivers and software. BUT WMC still indicated no tuner. So then I went out and bought a new tuner, no it didn't work either
Over the last two days I have watched the Microsoft technician retry everything that I had tried and it is still not working.
we may try to use the more extream upgrade. I just upgraded my system with windows 7, so we may have to do the install where the Drive C is formated and the clean operating system is installed. who knows the technician from microsoft is still researching
by the way HP stopped any support when I upgraded to Windows 7 because I did not buy the upgrade from them, I got it at wallmart
so if you want it to work call microsoft support at 800-642-7676 plan on spending some time

Pavilion dv7-1285dx tv tuner

I have a dv7-1285dx and was wondering i see where the HD, memory and wireless stuff is there is a spot for a card or something and it looks like a tv icon on the case can I get the tuner from HP and install it myself I seen some models have that option unfortunately I didn't get it with my computer but would like it.

I had thI updated to vista sp2 and I was receiving cable through my motorola dch 3200 through firewire played on VLC, when I upgraded it it just stopped working. I tried all the tv tuner drivers, which I had to install last time, but no luck. it would be nice if Hp just did a better job of labeling drivers and describing them. I mean wwhat is the point of labeling drivers witha bunch of numbers. Anyways I am trying a system restore now, cross my fingers. Its also really annoying how after awhile your computer can only restore back to like 5 restore points, because they don't offer any options of increasing the size of the recovery partition, I just upgraded last night, and I am afraid the restore point was after I installed sp2 not before. I dunno HP has really let me down with customer service, first off they sold me a laptop that they new had a bad videocard (look up nvidia lawsuit) HP was selling computers that should have been recalled after they knew about it, and the battery recall, pure bs, just because no one with a similar serial number had their battery blow up yet I cant get a new battery. Even Though I have the Hp battery that is being recalled. They need to fix some stuff to make it easier for people. Like having an all in one driver disc download, as well as individual downloads, a program that tests what drivers you need. I get better service from Gateway for my emachines computer, 24/7 free tech support, thats what we should really get, if we bought an HP laptop we deserve support, and if not that, a user friendly update and recovery system.

HP Pavilion dv7-2075eo Entertainment notebook pc - Can´t, get TV tuner working

HD went down, and after I made a recovery, I opgrated to Windows 8.(32 bit)
All driver for hardware were lost.
I´d found all drivers on HP´s site, but I can´t, get TV tuner working - can´t find hardware-
Can enybody help me with that?

I am going to be honest here. There is a good chance that not all hardware will be functional. This system was not designed for Windows 8 and was long before Windows 8.
With that being said, you can try this Vista Driver in compatibility mode. This is the driver for the express TV Tuner Card.
1. Download the driver.
2. Start the extraction process and take note of where it is getting extracted to. Cancel the installation once the extraction is finished.
3. Navigate to this extracted folder. Right-click the setup/installer file and select Troulbeshoot Compatibility.
4. Follow the prompts in the troubleshoot and select the automatic settings option.
5. Select Test Program when prompted.
6. Follow the installation.
7. If no errors were presented, it may work at this point.
NOTE: This process may not work, but it is a good place to start.
If you were using Windows Media Center previously, you may need to find a different solution. It is not available by default and will need to be added separately to Windows 8.
Here is the link for Media Center for Windows 8. It starts off by adding it to Windows 8 Pro, but the actual wording of the special offer towards the bottom does not specify Windows 8 Pro as a requirement. It may be worth trying.

Pavilion Dv7 4165dx Hard drive failure and performance issues?

I have a pavilion dv7 4165dx notebook that was working great until a couple of months when the performance of my machine started to decrease rapidly. I have performance issues with the machine because it takes 1 to 2 minutes to get from the welcome screen to the actual desktop and another 3 to 4 minutes for it to be ready to use. I already upgrade the memory from 4gb to 8gb but instead of going faster it goes slower and i also did a clean install of windows but it didn't help. Before i have problems it took maybe 30 to 50 seconds to go from the welcome screen to the actual desktop and 1 minute and 30 seconds to be ready to use and by the way i use soluto to tell me when the machine is ready for use.Then last week i notice that the headphone jack wasn't working properly so i contact hp and they told me to send them the laptop so i did, they replace the motherboard and they send it back to me and i just got it today it got a little better but it still lags on the welcome screen and to open programs. I check the memory using memtest 86 and the memory it's fine, but i check the hard drive with HDD Regenerator 2011 and it show i have one delayed sector. Then i check on hd tune pro and it show me some WARNING on section Calibration retry count( as you can see on the picture below) so my question is should i be worry and send it back to hp or what can i do to fix the problem i am having with this notebook?

I have the same laptop and have had issues with it since the day i brought it home. I have had it for a year now and am now replacing the hard drive for the 3rd time. My guess would be its your hard drive because most of the issues you seem to be having ar the same ones ive been dealing with for a while. I can say I'm very mad about the quality of this laptop and am in the process of battling with HP over this issue. If you have a chance go online and look at all the hard drive issues that this laptop has had and even look at the HP forums for this issue it will irritate you and make you wonder why this hasn't been fixed yet!

Looking for a high gain portable digital antenna for HP Pavilion DV7

Hi guys,
I bought a PAVILION DV7-3160 eh laptop this year. It has DVB-T MPEG-4 digital HDTV tuner originally made by Avermedia.
There is a problem that the digital signal is very poor at my living place. (It will be reduced until turning analog signal down finally. It will happen only 2 years later but I do not want to wait 2 years to watch digital TV channels.)
I have decided to plug a third party digital antenna to my laptop instead of the brand HP antenna.
I have founded in the Ebay a lot of digital (active and passive) arials but I don’t know what types are the best to my HP.
I’m helpless as the user manual tell nothing about technical details of TV tuner and it’s antennas.
I give preference to the high gain active antennas with built-in amplifier but these arials good for DVB-T USB stick and its are required 5V or more voltage. There are two types of arials, one is 50 ohm and the other is 75 ohm. (I have a conversion cable on the end a connector which is fit to my laptop (50 OMH) and on the other end a coax cable female connector(75 OMH) This two types is a little bit annoying.)
What are your opinions about this active type of antennas? Are these antennas compatible with my DV7?
Can provide DV7’s antenna connector the needed power to gain signal or the passive types are only suitable for my notebook? And what type would be better 50 or 75 OMH?
I would be glad if you answer my questions suggested me some useful portable antennas what are you using to your HP laptops.
Thanks in advance.
Julio

jacksoneric,
