HP 2000-2b19wm OS/Software :: Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Support Environment?
Aug 18, 2014
I have a HP 2000-2b19wm laptop. I bought this system. It came with Windows 8. After I got it I completely got rid of Windows 8 and IMHO upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate. I deleted all partitions and let 7 configure the hard drive the way it wanted, got the drivers and so on and so forth. (not worried about warrenty, I can handel most hardware repairs and software fixes).
I looked to see if there was a new BIOS available and there was, However I also noticed that there are two things called HP UEFI Support Environment and HP Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Support Environment. I know they have to do with Diagnostics and recovering from a bad BIOS flash.Do I install HP UEFI Support Environment or HP Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Support Environment?

It seems as if my computer is caught in a loop. On boot up it is constantly configuring the computer for up date but don't get any further than that. On startup it configures my computer for up date. But it never ends

Many of us have brought Dell XPS 15s (L501X) an year ago - they are working great.
However all recent laptops now are coming with UEFI as default, with a legacy fallback option.
I believe current bios (A08) is actually a locked version of Phoenix Tiano Core UEFI.
Does dell have any update or is at least planning to launch one soon?
We need it for full functionality of Windows 8 and get it boot from gpt..., otherwise l501x is a powerful enough machine with i7 & a hot nvidia gpu.

Yesterday I flashed the firmware of my XPS L702X to version A19, which enabled UEFI boot mode. I decided to go ahead and try to install Windows 7 in UEFI mode on a GPT disk. Installation succeeded, booting failed however. Then I read a message on the web from someone who succesfully installed Windows 8 on the same machine in UEFI boot mode on a GPT disk. So I decided to try Windows 8 instead. Installation failed. Using the recovery menu from the Windows 8 installation media, I wanted to try and see how far installation had come and more or less accidentally selected in some "Advanced options" menu to reboot to my USB flash drive (where the Windows 8 files were on). Rebooted fine. Then I shutdown, using the regular option.
When I turned on my machine again, I found out that pressing either F2 or F12, for the firmware setup and the boot menu, respectively, didn't work anymore. The firmware recognised my input, as the text in the lower right of the Dell splash screen became lighter, but instead of entering setup or the boot menu went straight ahead to boot my existing and working Windows 7 installation on my first (MBR) hard drive instead.
So, in short, I am locked out of setup and the boot menu. I have already tried reflashing the firmware, but without any luck. What to do now?

Have Vaio K23, P4 2.8GHz, .5 GB RAM, 40 GB HDD, 15.25" screen. Like it alot and it has served me well for many years. Time to upgrade due to speed and need for more memory. Will not give up screen size due to sight problems.
Have spec'd new FW 390 w/Core 2 Duo P8600 processor @ 2.4GHz, 2 GB RAM, 160 GB HDD and 16.5" screen, direct from Sony at $939. Seems reasonable given the pricing I see on Ebay for comparable FW's, both new and refurbs.
Does anyone use their FW for business app's? I am told this is primarily a MultiMedia box. I will use it only for business purposes and could care less about Blue Ray, gaming, video, etc.. I only occasioanlly require mobility so size/weight do not matter but I do not want clutter of a desktop all over my desk top!

I will probably re-switch on MAC Laptop soon ( last time I owned a G3) and was wondering if things have changed since then....:
What I do with my windows machine :
I use Acronis True Image to build an image of the OS partition along with software ( except data stored in a different partition) and save it in two different places, one of them an external USB drive.
In case of virus/driver problem/damaged OS but still bootable, I recover from the image right trough the Acronis software installed on windows.
If the OS is not bootable, I can use the Bootable Rescue CD that I can build with the same software, boot the PC with it and voila'...
I remember in G3 days I used Carbon Copy Cloner to save -not "images"- but snapshot of the OS partition to external drive and eventually recover the main OS partition booting from it, just in case. Can it still be done in Intel/Leopard days?
I also remember that the external boot could be performed only from a firewire drive, is it still this way, or can I use a normal USB drive ( HPS+ formatted)?
And, last question : is the 800 Fw physical port compatible with a 400? ( can I plug my M-Audio Firewire audio device straight to a MBP with a normal FW cable?)

apple didnt release drivers which support gpu switching in it's new version for windows. basically, the drivers used in your dell is the same as that which will be used by my mac because our boards are the same(mcp79).
for the gpu driver, i'm currently downloading 179.82, A06 from dell.com and then i'll paste a modded inf so that my 9600m gt is also detected ....

my 13.3" VGN-SZ650N/C so far but I also want to get a used TZ series 11" Vaio Laptop but most of the models are only using slower 1.8 " 4200rpm drive.
Assume if I got a decent issue of a used TZ from eBay, is it worthy to spend extra $$ to upgrade those 1.8 " 4200 rpm drive to something faster ?

i just got an nc2400, seems to be a pretty great machine maybe greater with some optimizations
-overclocking. it seems very quiet and cool, has anyone overclocked with success?
-hdd in optical bay caddy, i want to know more about this. mainly, is the optical drive SATA, or would it basically be the same PATA interface as the old HDD?
im thinking the best thing for this laptop is either a PCMCIA SSD or PCMCIA to SATA for an at least normal hard drive speed.
unless mini pcie is the way to go? if anyone else has tried and succeeded at addressing the problem of slow hdd interface, id like to know your experience. i tried the intel 5100 mini card in the slot, said incompatible wifi device remove and restart at the bios. i guess this could be a general thing, with chipsets or something.

When I place my LCD into tablet mode, sometimes my mouse wanders slowly on the screen and the touch interface seems to be disabled. After some trial and error I found that the culprit is that my TrackPoint is gently rubbing against the backside of the LCD. I found that I could make the mouse cursor move rapidly back and forth on the screen just by gently putting pressure on sides of the LCD when the laptop in tablet mode. I own two x220t devices, and this happens on both of them. My TrackPoint touch sensitivity is set 2 ticks to the left of the most sensitive setting.
I remember reading somewhere that the TrackPad is disabled when the laptop detects that the LCD is swiveled into tablet mode, so that it doesn't accidentally move the mouse. Could the TrackPoint be similarly disabled so that it doesn't generate these phantom mouse movements?

I just did a fresh install of Windows 8 on my Lenovo G475 and everything works fine but my wifi connection. This is what I have done so far: I...
- Installed Windows 8 and kept the laptop connected to the Internet via the ethernet card (to make sure all the installation process went smoothly).
- Updated Windows 8 via Windows Update.
- Downloaded missing drivers for Windows 8. They were: Realtek Card Reader Driver, Lenovo Energy Management and Wireless LAN driver.
- Installed all of them with administrator privileges and all of them went fine but the wireless LAN driver.
- At this point, Device Manager didn't show any device with a "?" so I assumed everything was fine.
- But no, because no wifi interface showed up in the device manager window.
- If i change the position of the wireless physical switch (at the front of my laptop, on my left), the bluetooth device goes off and on in the device manager window. But in no case, any wifi interface appeared / dissappeared.
- I also typed fn+f5 several times to toggle airplane on/off but did not work at all.
- Then I installed Windows 7 driver for the wireless card but didn't work either.
- I revised the BIOS and the wifi interface is activated.
It looks like the wifi component of the wireless card is hidden/undetected to Windows 8 (bluetooth works fine. I assume both wifi+bluetooth belongs to the same card).

I'm interested in thickness of HDD in E130. I read that in E125 was 7 mm HDD and there is troubles with 9 mm. So, is E130 similar to E125(E130 is next-gen of this type netbooks, but there is huge posibility that Lenovo Engineers decided not to change HDD type)? Or 9 mm hard drive will work?
Installing msata breaks warranty agreement, doesn't it? amout msata SSD(i've read about installing SSD in other Thinkpad notebooks), but I need some proves for Edge E130:
1)Speed is limited by SATAII interface?
2)mSata drive as bootable device will work?
Last questions are not such important, but i'll happy, if Edge E130/E135 users will share their experience

yesterday I had a problem with my HP Envy 15t-j100 suddenly it became deadly slow!! a similar behavior after I reinstall windows 8.1 and in that time installing the Intel Management Engine Interface (MEI) Driver located in the drivers list for my laptop [URL].
Yesterday I reinstalled the driver again and that solve the problem, I was wondering is there is an update for this driver anywhere? I tried with HP Support Assistant and with Intel Driver Utility [URL]no luck so far.

I have an Inspiron 1501 - it's old but it woks great.. I tried updating the BIOS following the instructions on the Dell site. I repeatedly get the Winphlash User Interface has stopped working. What is the proper technique to do this BIOS update without errors? I don't get any instructions on line - only a DOS type window then it disappears.
Also on the Dell site re Drivers, It finds my Service Tag and then I get the message that my operating system Windows Vista Home Basic is not available on the machine --but it was bought from DELL with this OS?
