HP/Compaq :: Enable Intel VT On Pavillion DV2842SE
Sep 15, 2009
I want to enable Intel VT on my HP Pavillion DV2842SE. I need to do this to run a 64 Bit Guest OS in VMware/Sun Virtual Box. Currently, the Phoenix BIOS (version F2E dated 12-2008) hides this feature. I have tried flashing to older BIOS versions just in case with no luck. My Proc is Intel Core 2 Duo T 5600, Mobo is Wistron 30CD, INtel GM 965 Chipset, 4 GB RAM, running Vista Home Premium 64 Bit. I had previously installed XP Prof 64 Bit on this laptop and got Intel VT turned on(so it is clearly supported), but cannot do it when I returned to factory installed Vista Home Premium 64 Bit (some software was not available for XP like Youcam and Multi-Touch scrolling for trackpad,etc and so I had to (sigh) return to Vista).

when I got my 9400/E1705 I was always sad for not having the AHCI option available in the BIOS.
This was asked for so many times:
- "Notebooks BIOS should support AHCI"
[url]
- "Enable AHCI in Dell Notebook BIOS"
[url]
- "Please give us BIOS support for SATA AHCI mode on Inspirons!"
Please give us BIOS support for SATA AHCI mode on Inspirons!
- "Give us real bios control"
[url]
- "Bios release"
[url]
In the Sony forum, they have found a way to activate these options even if they're not present in the BIOS:
How to Enable Intel VT and AHCI on a Napa/Santa Rosa platform Phoenix BIOS Vaio laptop
...
The only item you'll need is a bootable DOS media. Click one of these links for instruction for creating a bootable floppy disk (with USB floppy drive) or usb stick.USB flash1 or USB flash2 or CDR (add modified table file to image before writing).
Instructions:
1.Download symcmos and copy it to your bootable DOS media. This utility is used to modify your Phoenix BIOS settings. Also, download a DOS text editor and copy it to the media if you feel comfortable editing a file in DOS.
2.Go to the BIOS by pressing F2 during start-up, or when the VAIO logo appears, and reset the settings to factory default. Save and reboot.
3.Go back to the BIOS and enable the boot from external devices option. Save and reboot.
4.Press ESC when the VAIO logo appears to bring up the boot selection menu and select the bootable DOS media. At the prompt, type "symcmos -v2 -lDefault.txt", without quotes, and note that there's no space in between the flag and filename. This will create a literal symbol table from the NVRAM named Default.txt which contains all the current BIOS settings. Reboot by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del. If that doesn't work, hold the power button until the notebook turns off.
5.Use the DOS text editor (or boot to another OS and use a text editor there) to edit the generated Default.txt file. Change the following lines and save the modified file to something else (e.g. modified.txt):
For Napa SZs - R0112N0
AHCI: (015C) [0000] ---> (015C) [0001]
VT-x: (0354) [0000] ---> (0354) [0001]...

Yesterday I bought HP Pavillion DV3z-1000 with AMD Athlon X2 QL-62 2000Mhz and ATI Radeon HD 3200.
It look very nice, but also have some problem - always working cooler. When you are not using strong applications, such as Video Playaer, Flash Video in browser etc., it's work fairly quiet, but if not... .
Is it here another customers of this model? Did you have this problem? RMClock does not support Athlon QL-62 so I can't decrease the voltage .

I bought a HP Pavilion dv5215us around August of 06...Doing some research I understand that electronics depreciate drastically and I'm curious to know how much it would've been worth now because it got stolen (in the hands of a technician) and now he is asking my opinion of a price/value for it.

i got an HP Pavillion Artist's Edition laptop (HP Pavillion dv2700) with a built-in webcam, running Vista. even more recently i decided to try to get a program i could use to record my desktop, just for fun. i tried a program called ManyCam (since it was free). however, it didn't seem to work with Youcam, and when i tried using Youcam, that wouldn't work either. ManyCam froze when i tried to select the webcam as the source, and Youcam simply showed a black screen where i should've been able to see myself. in the end i uninstalled Youcam (i also no longer have quickplay because i was sick of it starting every time i accidentally brushed the button).
after searching for a solution i tried downloading and installing a non-HP driver (Chicony--now the driver shows up as Acer Crystal Eye webcam). this didn't help any. i even tried a different program, Debut Video Capture Software. still no luck (when i select "device" as the source i just get a black screen). i've looked everywhere i could think for a solution but have yet to find one. any help would be greatly appreciated. just ask if any additional information is needed.
ok, here's what i did: i uninstalled the chicony driver, as well as ManyCam and the other program i had installed. i also got skype, on a friend's recommendation. i restarted my computer to install updates. the hp webcam driver seemed to be installed and running fine. skype detected my webcam. however i still got no picture, just a blank/black screen. even on msn. i found a torrent of youcam and installed it, but it keeps telling me there's no video device detected. my webcam is turning on, but beyond that it's still not working.

Im stuck between getting an acer 1810tz or the DM1, the DM1 is actually a bit better with its DDR3 and bluetooth, its possible i can get it for cheaper as well.
However the inspiron 11z looks great too but the reviews say that sucks with its horrible touchpad and only 1 ram slot etc, i cant find any reviews of the DM1 anywhere, is it a good laptop? Better than the 1810tz?

Sad but Funny I have an HP ZE4325US and it started doing the same thing last year, what the crap is the chance of buying two HP's and both end up with the same issue? Checked everything and my only thought now is the MB,

I'm having a a VERY hard time getting my sister's DV6 to connect to our router.
I've updated the wifi driver, and the firmware on my ASUS WL-520 GU.
I can see the network, but I won't let me connect. Running WPA-Auto-Personal.
Now, I've heard that Vista has issues with WPA, but my dell connects fine without any issues.
If I plug the laptop into the router with an ethernet cable, I can connect wirelessly to the router. If I then unplug from the router, the wireless with work for a couple minutes, and then kick me off.

I am working on salvaging a family member's Pavillion DV2500 from a nasty spill. She spilled some soda all over the laptop and it obviously caused some issues.
I was able to get it all cleaned up and back to normal working order with the exception of the keyboard. When I use the keyboard a single keypress will result in multiple keypresses registering. For example: When I press the '1' key, it actually inputs '21'. This only happens for keys on the left side of the keyboard.
I know the first response will be, replace the keyboard. Well I did. Twice. Each new keyboard has the same response.
Has anyone had similar experience? I have tried cleaning up the connection on the motherboard for the keyboard the best I can and still nothing.

I want to ask if there is anything else I can do with the laptop to get a better performance rating.
I've added more memory, from 2 GB to 3 GB, bigger and faster HDD 320 GB @7200 rpm.
Attached are the specs for the laptop.
I can't/not sure how to attach the screenshots of the specs/ I tried the "copy' "paste" and that didn't work.

When I power on my laptop, blue dots or blue lines appears on the screen. As soon windows vista boot screen comes, a multi color screen appears and it stays there until i restart. I have did all the troubleshooting such as memory modules replacement, factory restore, system recovery etc. but couldnt able to solve the issue.
When I go into safemode and remove the nvidia drivers, system starts working in 16bit color mode. I have installed several graphic drivers but then again multi color screen appears on windows boot screen.
As per my local repair shop, its an issue with integreated graphic chip and he can fix it by replacing it with another graphic chip. therefore no need to replace the board.
Is it possible to replace the chip?

I came across a random thread that already asked this question- but never found a resolution. The problem I'm having right now is the thing just shuts off. I'm assuming it's an over-heating issue, but I am also wondering if it could be something else.
Computer less than six months old- I'm pretty taxing on it, but find that it shuts off when I'm playing ridiculous windows-based games like Farm Frenzy. It gets insanely hot, like while playing a windows game, I had it on my lap...
Also, I don't know if this is in any way related, but the charger that it came with blew like a week ago. Whenever I'd put my ear up to it, it'd tick. I don't know if maybe a short somewhere can cause something like that to happen.
I'm wondering if this is something I should have looked into- (I have a 3-year warranty). Or is this me just buying a crappy laptop and having to buy one of those cooling fans.

if it is possible to install more than the 2 GB of RAM that this laptop is listed as the max.?
I've been told that if you flash the BIOS to the latest version, you can install
(2) 2 GB memory sticks and the laptop will recognize 3 GB for Vista 32-bit or 4GB for Vista 64-bit. Also, you must ensure that the memory conforms to certain specs.?
Is this true, or am I stuck with 2 GB max.?

Are matte screens available on any Pavillion systems? I've searched and searched, but they pretty much all seem to be 'brightview' or 'infinity brightview', which are glossy, right?
I don't want to start this whole 'matte vs. glossy' debate again, but needless to say I work in a bright office and my DV4T's reflections are killing me
So far I've found the business Elitebooks look nice and have matte screens, but they're a tad behind, say, the HDX systems in terms of the available configurations.

The screen is has white upper corners
I have an year plus HP pavillion dv6000 series.
Maybe I didn't notice before or they appeared recently, but there is whiteness on the upper left and right corners of the screen. It isn't on the outside as it only shows up when the laptop is on.
Also, if i have a darker background like on movies that are on widescreen format [black bars above and below the movie], the whites becomes smaller like a small line on the corners.
Is it something to do with the screen losing its life or is it because of some internal dust? I have used windex to clean it but I wonder how can dust get to the back of the screen? It is primarily used a home desktop.

No hardware problems showing in Device Manager
Windows 7 Home Premium
1gig Ram
Problem > No Sound (sorta)
There is no sound ONLY from the Bottons Above the keyboard Which Beep, IF and only IF you close the lid and wait for the computer to go into sleep mode, WHEN you re-open the lid, There is sound for about 2sec, Until the computer shows the USER LOGIN (Square picture you click to log in)
If you plug head phones into the computer there is ONLY sound on one side (i think right side) I thought maybe it was a faulty JACK so i Removed the entire board from the front of the computer(unpluged from mother board)
I had windows Vista on this computer and it was the same!
I dont believe this is a driver problem but could be... Everything is un-muted and working. like i said. i GET sound when i first open the notebook
This problem started when i unlugged my headphones
