View 12 Replies View RelatedI am having a bad blue-screen issue with my hp dv6-1245dx laptop. I am crashing to a blue screen at very random times, starting with one occurence a few months ago, followed by two months with no problems, then a few crashes in a row three weeks ago, followed by three weeks of good use. In the last three days the occurences are pretty much every 10 to 20 mintues, at random, and they require a few minutes of waiting before it will crank back up again. ( If I don't wait this short time, it will crank but it throws a black error screen saying "No operating system found" ) I fear it is some failing hardware issue, like the HD about to give out. I have run the Image Diag.exe from the first post on this forum, and have that log cab file available. I also have an image of the blue screen ( it is the same each time, the error is a STOP: 0x000000F4).

an issue I have, regarding video playback. Whenever I watch a video file on my HP DV6T, the playback seems rather grainy.
The video playback seemed much more clearer of a picture on my dv5z, and I am wondering if it has to do with the resolution.
Could this be because of the 16" 1366x768 resolution?
All I want is to be able to watch my movies or video files FULL SCREEN, and in good video quality.
I bought a HP Presario DV8339us a few days ago and I put Windows XP on it and installed all the necessary drivers. Now I have no idea what's going on but when i maximize my Firefox or IE windows the screen flickers constantly and won't stop until I actually turn off the computer. I'm running on a nVidia GeForce GO 7600. Got all the drivers from the HP site so i'm pretty sure they aren't corrupt.

Does this sound like an inverter failure? From what I read this symptom doesnt sound typical for an inverter.
i wanted to output the dv5 1009tx to a crt
i bought a vga to 3x RCA (component cable) now thing is it does not output video to a CRT tv
now i know you guys might say use the HDMI , but well i cannot afford an LCD currently or in the near future, and yes the tv isn't any larger stands at 20 or so inches (sanyo)...flat (or as near as flat can be...)
i am using the latest NVIDIA drivers from their website,....i have previously in the past been able to setup dual/clone displays with NVIDIA cards....(using DVI/VGA desktops) but apparently this does not work, the Display driver picks up the TV but sadly no display
i have tried
No interlace (on laptop and tv)
reduced Reso to 10x7
flicker at 60Hz
the tv shows a bluescreen and it flickers....but no image of the desktop
my qs to you all is.......do i need any specific cable (as this one states it is a DVD player to projector...but shouldn't it work anyways?) any other settings i may have missed
(my duty roster would not allow me to get to this shop for another week+) i do not have VGA to RCA or svideo
if the Nvidia 130M can be upgraded? I love everything about the HDX 18 but the video card... running games like crysis is not what I hoped it to be. Was wondering if any high tech users know anything about upgrading the video card on this bad boy?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently bought a dv2, and immediately clean-installed the RC of Windows 7. I tested out YouTube and Hulu HD video, and they both were choppy/unwatchable, which I figured was understandable given the laptop's relatively slow processor and flash's inefficiency.
But when I tried h.264/VC-1 HD video, even 720p, I can't get it to run at any decent speed and using the CoreAVC decoder, videos seem to run at full speed, but are garbled beyond recognition and frequently loop a few frames, while the audio plays normally. For a computer that is supposed to run blu-rays, I think this is ridiculous, and I must be doing something wrong, right? If anyone with a dv2 can point me in the right direction, it'd be greatly appreciated. The next step is to restore Vista and see if that fixes my problems, then upgrade back to Seven. But until then, can anyone tell me their setup and results for HD video/Flash HD?
I'm having an issue with my Pavilion dv9200cto video (Intel Core 2 2.0Ghz, nVidia 7600Go) It started a while back, I'd get strange artifacts on the screen while using it, the screen would sometimes get covered in lines and I'd have to power down and reboot.
Then it started with BSOD on reboot with the NVLKDM error and wouldn't boot into windows unless I went in in safe mode.
Then I found that I could delete the nVidia card in device manager and if I just kept the Standard VGA adapter driver then it would work, albeit ugly and 1280x1024 looks bad on a widescreen monitor.
At that point I had Windows 7 on it and hoped that it was just a driver issue. Tried numerous drivers from nVidia, HP, Laptopvideo2go etc... I loaded up Vista and had the same issues no matter which driver I used. I loaded up XP and had the same issues no matter the driver again.
I did pull it apart and found that the fan/heatsink on the CPU/Video cooler were completely clogged up so overheating seems like a likely culprit.
I'm assuming the video chip is shot and I need a new motherboard -
If I buy a new motherboard are there any others that are upgrades to what I have or do I just buy a replacement for the current mobo?
I am going to buy again a system board due to video failure. Insteed a refurbished I wanna buy a new/used board. Is it possible to replace a 434659-001 G73M system board to a 447982-001 / 447983-001 G86 one? I have a dv9019ea and I observed that theese cards have same output connectors on them. I dont know about dimensions but they look similar.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a DV9500t with a nvidia 8600gs card in it. Last Friday my wife brought it to work and when she was leaving she just shut the laptop and stuck it in our notebook bag. When she got home we went out to eat and when we got back we took the laptop out and it was very very hot and smelled a little funny, apparently the damn thing didn't go to sleep when my wife closed the lid. Great HP workmanship there.... Well I let it cool off and turned it on... It started showing little red dots all over and when it tried to boot into windows there was multi colored lines up and down the screen. I could boot into safe mood and see everything, but the display was still a bit screwy show little red dots and artifacts everywhere...
So I've concluded that the video card overheated and I'm lucky it didn't start on fire, but at the same time the laptop is unusable. Is there anything inexpensive that I can do about this? The warranty expired a year and a half ago and I certainly can't afford a new laptop at this point. This is very frustrating since I thought the laptop would last at least another year.... Does anyone know if the video card can be replaced?
whats the highest video card that can be installed in the Hp 8710w? I have the fx 1600m, is the 3600m the only option?

intel celeron 2G., 1G. ram, 160G. Hard, and intel graphics. few weeks ago i noticed some of my videos hang up and cause total crash. first it didn't concern me much, i though it is just software problem. but yesterday i tried to solve the problem; first thing i do is to reinstall media playback software, but the problem persist, i even tried different software without success. then i suspect driver problem, so i wen to hp site and downloaded latest intel graphic driver and again no luck. i decided to reinstall OS (Windows XP Professional SP3 clean install), everything went O.K. and i update many drivers including BIOS, then i installed media player and firstly it went well be after a while to problem arise again! the only way to get video playback normally is to go to advanced display setting and minimize hardware acceleration to disable 3D acceleration. what surprise me is games run O.K. at maximum hardware acceleration.
the video playback! it can't stream a 8bit nintendo game. it's ridiculously choppy.

View 3 Replies View RelatedSo when I am playing WoW, my video has started to freeze. Sometimes after about 20-30 seconds it unfreezes. The next freeze, which occurs shortly after, forces me to hard reboot. For the most part, I have to do a hard reboot (though I can still move my cursor around). One time I did this, it gave an error message about my drivers and something about Dx 9.0c. I checked and I have Dx 10. I have had this laptop about 2 months now, and never had this problem before this week. So far (knock on wood) I have not had this problem while watching video, only playing WoW (and usually only on mundane things like fishing or exploring, never raiding, grouping, or in Dalaran.

Is there any permanent settings once it is set how I wanted?
I kept brighten up the video screen whenever I use it.
I have had my HP DV5t for a while now and didn't pay much attention to it, but I have noticed that my screen is not as bright as some of my friends laptops (dell's not hp). And that when I watch a movie from my HDD, the video has a sort of white/or extremely bright quality to it.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am considering a blu ray laptop. HP's DV7 comes with a 128MB dedicated video at Best Buy. The DV7 at Walmart comes with 1GB of dedicated video. Will the 1GB video be that much worse than 128MB for battery life?
The BB Laptop with 128MB says 5hrs 15min, the WM laptop does not say.
I have an HP DV5t purchased last September/October.
The computer seems to have a weird problem when watching HD videos from places like YouTube or Hulu. I will get horizontal lines near the middle height of the screen. They are not pixels changing colors or going dark, it is almost as if the image is jumping around or as if it is processing/updating the video or something. (It's really hard to explain - it looks like the video is slightly off, just a series of horizontal lines that are jumping around.)
I've never noticed this until somewhat recently. Is this just a case of horizontal refresh lines and the video being too high-quality? Or does it sound like something more problematic.
The LCD on my DV2000 broke last month and since I dont have the money to replaced right away I decided to use it with my 17" lcd monitor for the mean time. After a few days of using it with the external monitor one day I turn it on and got nothing on my external monitor. Since then I having trying to figure out why I am not getting video signal through my VGA or s video.
Now I am afraid there is something worst than just the broken lcd so I am trying to see if there any way I can test it or find out if it still works before I get the replacement LCD. I at least know the there is signal going to the broken lcd since when it turns on the screens light up and turns white.
Is it possible to use a different size lcd from another hp? I have 15.4 lcd from my sister's old compaq will the dv2000 mother board run a bigger screen or will it kill the motherboard?

I've managed to install some of the drivers for my laptop but 2 yellow question marks are still in my device manager - under "other devices" there's a yellow question mark next to "unknown device" and "video controller (VGA compatible)"
hp's website doesn't list the nvidia driver or any other, as for the unknown device - well i'll find out about that later no doubt!
where i can
1. get my video driver
2. a complete list of driver downloads (free)
I just took the wraps off my new DV6t. I live in Japan so I had to wait two weeks while my parents spent $150 dollars to ship it to me, but it finally got here and...
There's artifacting everywhere. Little pink boxes appear even when I'm mousing over things in the file explorer, and when I opened up the catalyst control center (and it shows the two 3D scenes for comparison) there was artifacting like crazy!
I tried uninstalling the drivers, but the pink boxes still continue to spawn in random places on the screen. Then I went to ATI's website but apparently they don't hand out drivers for the mobility 4650... so I had to go to HP's website and get the same stuff I had before. Nothing solved...
I managed to install XP SP3 on my laptop without any problems .. dv7 1110eg
but now I can not find drivers for video ...
I tested with modtool ...
but I said that the driver is not compatible
my dv6700 has it and i use it i dont know how many times with my SDTV. Ofcourse there is HDMI, but for SDTVs without HDMI, s-video was a good solution. Why did hp stop putting it on the notebooks?
