What will HP fix on the pavilion 9400 series? Mine seems to be overheating

Ive seen several referenced postings in the forum to overheating and other issues with this series model of laptop. I bought one used, reloaded it to factory image, and its exhibiting slowdowns, like its running at half speed, after about 2 hours. I suspect over temp, but havent put a temp monitoring sw package on it yet. Its not a processor load issue based on what I see in Task manager, and its got 2G of ram, showing under 35% utilized average.
But I did recently update the bios to almost the most recent version (web page wouldnt provide the latest version, broken link) thinking that HP may have changed the algorithims on when the fan runs
Ive seen a link to a list of problems that HP will fix for this series, but the link is stale. Can anyone provide an update as to what HP will fix and what they wont? And is this for warranty work only or is there a recall on the unit, other than the battery?
Regarding the otemp situation, anyone have suggestions on what to do to make this thing a bit more reliable, like how to clean out fan unit and cooling chamber, etc?
BTW the exact model is a pavilion dv9408nr

thanks for UR response...
I agree and assumed if it affected the index that it would be by a small amount 1 or 2 tenths in possibly 1 or 3 area's. The FSB is a important one in regards to if this system can actually handle the faster memory. Or like U said the system will just downgrade it...
I could save some money if I just bought one 8 gig strip of the slower memory and replaced the 2 gig strip I have and end up with 12 gigs total. But once again what does this really do for me? I do play games... That is why I asked in original post if it actually would give me more total video memory by doing the upgrade.
With the current 6 gigs of memory what is max % the video can use. If I increase to 12 or 16 gigs what is max % the video can use?
HP Employee might be needed to answer these questions.
Thanks once again for UR response!

All of us here are users just like you. We have no inside info of when Apple products or operating system updates/upgrades will be released. The next iOS may not even change the issue you have.

If it's showing the red disabled screen due to too many incorrect passcode attempts then you may need to put the iPod into recovery mode in order to reset it via your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to restore/resync your content to it

What will I do with the SQL Server (2012/2014) (Standard/Enterprise) Licenses?

What will I do with the SQL Server (2012/2014) (Standard/Enterprise) Licenses?
Are these the same as software product keys, or just some pieces of paper the company needs to have on hand?
In which case, when we install SQL Server 2014, (and when looked for videos) - there is only 1 product key value to be put in, is there some other screen in the setup to input the License bought ( in our case will be Core licenses).
So in addition to the Core Licenses do will a Product key be needed? Would product key from an msdn work, as it is the licenses that we will buy to indicate that we bought to run the software on server X?
Thanks for any indications.

I will answer your question point wise
1. Keeping license key is good idea it helps you during audit and you have proof that you are using a valid Microsoft License. Plus in scenario of disaster where whole box gets damanged you might need to install SQL Server again in that case during
reinstallation on setup page where you need to enter key you might need need it. If you are missing your paper then you are in trouble.
2. Only on product key page license key is required and it is not required anywhere else during installation. Unless you enter valid product key installation will not proceed further.
3 License makes you a valid owner of Microsoft product with restrictions on how much hardware resource you can use how much max connections you can make etc. Key lets you install it on Windows machine making sure that you are using valid Microsoft product.
This was just a general idea please speak to your licensing specialist for more details. This is technical forum and we generally ask user to speak to licensing expert for such queries.

What will skype do in the future to prevent these ...

I downloaded the skype 6 a few days ago. I liked the new layout and enjoyed that it went to the oldest new-message. However, like many people I discovered that the group chat picture doesn't work correctly. In a group where the picture is changed a few times a day and often times part of the discussion, this is very annoying. However there is no fix for this problem, just a vauge reply that windows will fix this in the next update. It feels as though windows is not taking this issue seriously and we may have to wait a month or more before it is fixed.
Why did this problem make it through? I did not see something that said "beta" when I downloaded this- I just uninstalled my old skype and installed the latest versionl.
What measures did windows take to test the new skype? Did you have people beta test it? If so did you give people a checklist of specific things to test out, along with letting them play around? Did you tell them to chat with people who had the old version and the new? How long did you have people beta test this program?
Were you aware of this glitch before it was released? Please answer this honestly. I am aware that programming is difficult, ect. ect. however you have left the glitchy program up as the new skype download, despite this problem.
What will you do going forward to make sure that problems like this don't happen.
If you were aware of this and don't plan to change your practices I would rather change to linux programs. I doubt it will make a big difference to a huge corperation like windows, so please tell me so that I know what to do going forward.
Sincerely,
Someone who Spends far too Much Time Online.

We are still working to release the fix for this issue. It's only affecting legacy peer-to-peer chats, e.g. ones that were created more than a year ago. If this functionality is super important you can re-create this chat as a modern server based cloud group chat by issuing the "/fork" command in the old group chat. This will create a separate new group chat with a different history starting anew, but it has the same members in it. You need to judge how important the group chat picture feature is for you.
...and if I may be so curious: Can you share a bit how you use the group avatar functionality that you are updating it multiple times a day? Are you discussing movie posters/adverts? Or is your group a design community?

What will i do with the router?

what will i do now? how do i connect?

If you have a wireless internet connection, which i am assuming you do, there should be some sort of RJ45 jack on the back. It looks like a telephone jack, only wider. Plug your router into this. You may also need to hookup things such as power cable. See the documentation that came with your router. There will also be some setup steps you need to do to get it running. See your manual, or CD-Rom for this.

What will compliment HANA in the future...

I'm in a little dilemma. My team was going for training and get on projects for HANA. But it seems that has been postponed for alteast a year. It was disappointing to hear this.
I'm a BI developer, working with basic ETL, Infocubes, DSO, etc. (only 1 year experience, was ABAP developer before)
I do have somewhat of a flexibility to learn something new (I'm still new to BI, so I have that option).
I want to learn something that will compliment HANA when I get involved in it in the future. I know HANA will be replacing many things in BI. There aren't that many options (BusinessObjects, BWA, BEX, stick with BI (ETL/DSO/InfoCubes/etc.).
What would be the best application/product to learn in BI now that will definitely help/compliment when learning HANA in the future? (which will also improve my skill set and value as a consultant also)

Just a general remark on this, as I believe many customers are thinking about the best ways to adopt HANA.
With BW 7.3 SPS 5 it's possible to run BW natively on a HANA system. This includes changed implementations for different key features of SAP BW (e.g. flat infocubes, in-memory DSO, exception aggregation and de-aggregation pushed to the HANA level etc.).
So it's possible to take the existing BW warehouse and reporting system and run it on HANA.
Step by step the adoption of the new HANA features can then be done.
And, often overlooked, HANA is not a data warehouse. It doesn't integrate data sources across the companies data world.
It's doesn't keep historical data stored in data marts in a cleansed and unified way.
SAP BW does all this - also when it runs on HANA.
So, in my view, it might be a clever strategy to focus on the design of the current data warehouse so that it's easy to move it to HANA.
ok - just my 2ct

HT6065 what about a fix for the broken VPN?

When is Apple going to fix the VPN in Mavericks? Keeps disconnecting, after random (but typically short, an hour or two) up-time. It used to stay connected for days pre-Mavericks (same computer, same router, same VPN destination).

It will not connect to your laptop ( except for internet tethering, if you subscribe to this service from your carrier) ot any other iphone (except from within supported Apps from the app store).
Most have no issue with bluetooth, when using with supported devices.
It seems you have an issue with your bluetooth. Is you car stereo in discover mode? Have you talked to the make of your car stereo to see if they support iphone?

What will permanently write on the surface of my MacBook?

I'm going to ask Buzz Aldrin to autograph my MacBook. I've been trying markers on the battery-- ALL of them smudge and come almost completely off after drying, including Sharpie!
Has anyone successfully (or accidentally) gotten marker on their MacBook that has not smudged or come off whatsoever, and if so, what was the brand?

Hi minetruly,
I used to hunt autograph for my pearly white gitar, and usually after somebody signed it, I let it dry for a day and then sprayed lightly acrylic clear coating from a pressured spray can.
It will prevent the autograph to become easily wear off or smearing by my sweat or somebody touched it.
Good Luck with your hunt.

Please help retrieve my files

Hi Bunnyfoofoow,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I recommend trying these troubleshooting steps if the cellular data connection on your iPhone is not working:
Follow the instructions below for assistance with troubleshooting cellular data issues on your iPhone. After performing each step, please test to see if the issue is resolved.
Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings, turn airplane mode on, wait three seconds, and then turn off again.
Restart your iPhone.
Ensure that your software is up to date:
Check for a Carrier Settings Update. Tap Settings > General > About.
Check for an iOS Software Update. Tap Settings > General > Software Update.
Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
Remove the SIM Card and reinsert it. Allow the iPhone to acquire the network again.
If your SIM card has SIM PIN enabled, try toggling it off: Tap Settings > Phone > SIM PIN.
Try another location. If a different location works, but the original location still does not, contact your carrierto report the issue.
Reset network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Restore the iPhone as new.
Contact your carrier to:
Verify that the iPhone is properly set up on the account with the appropriate, current data plan.
Verify that there are no account-related blocks.
Find out if there are specific error messages in the carrier logs that could help determine why the issue is occurring.
If none of the above steps resolves the issue, contact your carrier, make an appointment at an Apple Retail Store, or contact AppleCare to troubleshoot further.

My iPad mini will not connect to the internet, My iPad mini will not connect to the internet

My iPad mini says my password to my internet router is incorrect. It's not incorrect. Help

Hello Courtney Devers,
It sounds like you are unable to join your Wi-Fi network with the error message saying the password is incorrect. I recommend these troubleshooting steps from the article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
Tap and Forget this Network.
Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your device to the latest version of software.
Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
If the issue persists I would next try the steps from this section down toward the bottom:
Unable to connect to a Wi-Fi network
Verify that you're attempting to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Make sure you're entering your Wi-Fi password correctly. Passwords may be case sensitive and may contain numbers or special characters.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling
