Why is the Hp Pavillion dv6 keyboard so shaky when i type? the entire thing sinks down when i type.

my keyboard sinks down into the plastic and bounces when i type. this has been a problem ever since i got this laptop. everything else is fine, it is just annoying to type with a keyboard that sinks in. what do i do? And does anyone else have this problem?

  • When I add a new bookmark, and the (star) Page Bookmarked window appears - is there any way to expand the size of that window so that I can see my entire list of folders when adding a new bookmark to an existing folder?

    When I add a new bookmark, and the (star) Page Bookmarked window appears - is there any way to expand the size of that window so that I can see my entire list of folders when adding a new bookmark to an existing folder? The endless scrolling technique is far too tedious when trying to add a new bookmark, because the window is simply too tiny. Is there maybe a plug-in that will let me grab the corner of that window and re-size it? Thanks!

    I suggest you install the "Add Bookmark to Here2" extension, then you can expand the the list but you will not see the bookmark itself in the list if that is what you wanted. At the top you have three major folders you can select one of them and scroll up and down. Below that you have your most recently used folders and you can select one of them instead and scroll up and down. You can see the folder the bookmark is in -- they get added to the bottom
    If you really want to see the bookmark within the folder the same extension allows you to bring the bookmark to the folder from say the bookmarks sidebar that is why it is named as such. I use it but mainly i use the dialog.
    Please continue reading about bookmarks and some related extensions at

    If you are not using tags at all, you can remove a whole lot of confusion by removing them from the dialog via the extension.

  • HP pavillion DV6 laptop fan isn't running to the max

    As of late my DV6 laptop's fans aren't running at max rpm as they should be during heavy loads like gaming or video processing. It'll  run normally and keep on gaining heat until it hits 80 degrees celcius by searching the web, yet the fan will still be at maybe 20-30% running capacity. When running games, it often drops my fps from 100% of its max capacity to mabye 30 to 40%. Is there a fix for this problem? I've already tried running all options of hp coolsense and I might try and get compressed air to air out the vents.

    Also apparenlty according to speedfan my GPU fan speed is 0 rpm. Could that attribute to the lack of fan speed?

  • HP Software for the HP Pavillion dv6-6117dx (Need to recover system without Recovery Manager

    So I installed Windows 8 but was forced to delete all partitions, then I installed Linux Mint 14 Nadia, now I'm back to Windows 8 and I want to get Windows 7 Home Premium back or Windows 7 Professional (Microsoft Downgrade Rights)
    And I cannot download the software HP provides when you first setup the computer, but now I do not have HP Recovery Manager or Support Assistant so I need that to reinstall all the programs and get back to Windows 7 Home Premium. But I do not want to spend any money on it like spending $15 on 2 stupid recovery discs, what a rip off! Ok can someone help ASAP also Im on Windows 8 Professional
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    If you did not burn your Recovery Disks using HP Recovery Manager before deleting all partitions there is no way to download the files now. Ordering Recovery Disks is best option.
     If you can read the 25 character Microsoft Windows 7 license key attached to bottom of laptop , you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD.It must be the same version that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker. Windows 7 Home Premium
    Link to the Windows 7 ISO file downloads:
    http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-windows-7-s​p1-iso-from-digital-river/
    Get ImgBurn to burn the iso image to DVD using slow burn speed.
    Or use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to convert the ISO file to a Windows installation on DVD or USB flash drive.
    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/html/p​bPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
    Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
    Next go to your support and driver page to install the drivers you need.

  • Where can i get hp pavillion dv6 1370ev motherboard

    where can i get hp pavillion dv6 1370ev motherboard?

    This manual shows the motherboards in the dv6 series.
    Match the part number to the configuration of the notebook you plan on installing it in.
    If you have already removed it, look for the part number and match it to what you see in the manual I linked to. Just do an online search for HP pavilion dv6 -1370ev replacement motherboard with Google or Bing to find a vendor with the best price. If you purchase it through HP Partsurfer you will pay much more than market price.
    Best regards,

  • Pavillion DV6 2020sa bios corrupt, wont take recovery. please help.

    hi, thanks to anyone that has any input on this problem its much appriciated,
    I am looking at my brothers laptop, pavillion DV6 2020sa he had a virus lock the screen, he held the power button to switch it off, upon reboot he gets the blank screen and flashing leds (2 flashes) upon lookin up it says bios corrupt, i have downloaded the bios from HP tis 3635.bin and have put in on a USB drive, the sticker under the battery also says 3635, so im confident i have the right one.
    I then hold the win + B button and then power, it starts, and shortly after the USB stick light up and flashes, then stops, then flashes again, at that point i get 6 beeps, then silence, then i get 5 slow beeps, i have read this is meant to happen, but then its meant to resart, and this is the bit that dont happen, it dont do anything, when i restart it, it just does the same flashing lights.
    am i doing something wrong, or something im missing.
    Thanks again for any help.
    Jamie.

    You will need an eeprom programmer to reprogram a new BIOS chip with a fresh BIOS file. It takes a special hot air tool to successsfully remove and replace a notebook BIOS chip. This is not just normal soldering. This is what real electronics technicians and workers at an electronics R&D lab and workers on the assembly line at manufacturer do. Unless you just happen to be an electronics enthusiast or engineer, and I am guessing you are not since you asked these questions, this may be out of your league. If you feel adventurous and have  your brother's permission to use his notebook as a guinea pig...go for it! It is not as easy as the guy in the video made it look. He is a trained technician and  does it for a living.

  • How to use the phone's Mini-Keyboard Input with the 'Textbox'(MIDP2.0)?

    (My apology. My English is not perfect but I'll try my best. >_<)
    Hi. I'm trying to create a textbox(in my own little application) that is compatible with the mini-keyboard input feature.
    This problem involved any device that have a built-in "mini-keyboard".
    Problem:
    I tried the 'Textbox' class from MIDP2.0 but the result, as expected, is like using the phones with no built-in keyboard.
    (Forexample if I want to input the character 'C' inthe text box, I need to press number '2' button three times to let it circle through 'A' -> 'B' then 'C'. )
    Then I tried entering URLs in the phone's built-in web browser, the result is I can use the mini keyboard to type like a PC keyboard.
    Question: How do I implement such textbox that is fully compatible with the built-in mini Keyboard?
    I tried browsing through the MIDP2.0 API but it seems the 'Textbox' class there couldn't do it.
    Thank you. =)
    /bow
    Edit/Delete Message

    The textbox should have input just as any other normal phone input. If not, something strange is going on.
    Anyway , there is no use to make your own input method, since every phone has another implementation of this anyway. It would only confuse users.

  • Is the ZAGG keys Universal Keyboard compatible with Apple TV?

      is the ZAGG keys Universal Keyboard compatible with Apple TV?

    The ZAGG keys Universal Keyboard  is  a Bluetooth keyboard that the manufacturer states is "compatible with most IOS devices"  but does not list Apple TV specifically, though the the different  IPADS that are compatible are listed.
    I did contact the manufacturer through an online Sales Associate Chat on their website and ironically they could not answer me.   They did take my email and stated they will research and get back to me.  That was only yesterday, 10/7/13 so I will give it a few days.
    I know there are other keyboards available, so maybe I will just research a little more.

  • Why does my macbook shut down when the lid is closed?

    Hi,
    I have a Macbook Pro (mid-2012) running 10.9.1
    Last week out of the blue, the Macbook started shutting down whenever I close the lid.
    When I open the lid, the logon screen appears (as if it's been asleep as normal) but almost immediately reboots itself.
    Has anyone else got the same issue? Any idea how to resolve?
    Thanks

    If after you open the lid you do get the login screen, almost immediately, but then it restarts your system is not shutting down when you close the lid. It is going into a sleep state but then crashes when trying to come out of that sleep state. There are quite a few posts on this problem and it seems to be caused by the system going into the Deep Sleep state also known as the hibernate mode. That is where the contents of the RAM is written to the hard drive and the system suspends supplying power to the RAM chips so the system uses even less power then in regular sleep mode.
    That is only supposed to happen after the system has been in the regular sleep mode for an extended period of time.
    To check the state of the huiberbnate mode open terminal and type in, or copy and paste, this command.
    pmset -g | grep hibernatemode
    To check the state of all power management settings use the command.
    pmset -g

  • When setting the split-days to "every 15 minutes," the week and comparison views show incorrect time ranges for the day

    When I change the "split-days" interval time, under Options > Settings, to
    15, or every 15 minutes, the week and comparison views don't show the correct
    time range for the day.
    <P>
    For example, if I click View to display the calendar and then click Week to get
    a weekly view, the time range displayed is from 6:00 a.m.
    to 4:00 p.m. If I click Comparison to get a
    comparison view, the time range displayed is from 12 p.m.
    to 6:45 p.m.
    <P>
    In this example, should both of these views show the same time range, from
    9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.?
    No, the two views will not necessarily show the same time range. The time
    range for the comparison view will start at the beginning prefs time only
    if you have something scheduled (on any day of the week) starting at that
    time. For example, on one of the days during your week of comparison, if you
    create an event that starts at 9:00 a.m. and then open the comparison view, the
    time range displayed will start with 9:00 a.m.
    <P>
    Additionally, view times will expand past the configured settings if events
    span past the time range. That is, if you have an event that spans from
    5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., the event will be reflected in the view, even though
    your time range may be set to go only to 6:00 p.m.

    Umm yes.
    The settings are stored in ''prefs.js'', so you could swap various copies of this file in and out.
    However, the system will load ''prefs.js'', then, if present, ''user.js'' , so you can set up just your changes in ''user.js'' .
    The sort of line you need to look for is like this:
    <code>user_pref("mail.server.server14.check_time", 10);</code>
    You'll need to do some research to identify which of your accounts is which.
    Search for the account's email address:
    <code>user_pref("mail.identity.id10.useremail", "xenos&#64;example.com");</code>
    Use the id number to locate the account number:
    <code>user_pref("mail.account.account29.identities", "id10");</code>
    Use the account number to find the server number:
    <code>user_pref("mail.account.account29.server", "server14");</code>
    Finally, you can then use the server number find the account's time setting:
    <code>user_pref("mail.server.server14.check_time", 10);</code>
    This last entry may not exist, if you have never changed the setting from the default 10 minutes.
    Do be careful with your typing and copy/pasting; if the file fails the syntax parser it will silently fail.
    And make sure Thunderbird is shut down when you do the swap. If it's open, it may overwrite changes, and in any case, it only reads the settings file when it starts up.
