HP Pavilion 15-n228us OS/Software :: HP Driveguard Not Working After Updating To Win 8.1
Jun 5, 2014
I have the Pavilion 15-n228us notebook. When I bought it, it came with Windows 8 and the HP driveguard logo was on the taskbar. Now that I have updated the notebook to windows 8.1 the logo is never there and the Driveguard control panel is no longer there. I get no errors but I don't know if driveguard is enabled or not. It says it is installed (ver:6.0.18.1) under Add or Remove programs.
I have HP Pavilion g6-2206tx Notebook PC which was running windows 8(64-bit).
Recently I updated to windows 8.1 . All things are fine after the update i.e., all the hardware and software are working properly expect bluetooth . bluetooth is not working & i tried all the ways to run it.
It seems that there is no bluetooth hardware in my laptop . I contacted hp also & they gave me 1 update and it also won't work.
I have an HP ENVY 17r laptop. So I installed WIndows 8.1 the other day and everytime I startup my laptop I get this error:
AccelerometerSt.Exe - System Error
The program can't start because MSVCR110.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
I then went and uninstalled the 3D Driveguard but then encountered another error:
HP 3D DriveGuard Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action RemoveMobilityCenterTile64, location: C:WINDOWSInstallerMSI8EB1.tmp, command: /uninstalltile
I also tried to install the driver for the 3D DriveGuard but when I did so I ran into yet another error:
The HP 3D DriveGuard driver cannot install, the Accelerometer hardware is not present or supported on this unit. (Click OK to exit).
I purchased a Pavilion 15-n228us Notebook with Windows 8.1 in April. Several weeks ago, I searched for Microsoft Photo Editor, which I thought included in Start Menu, somehow, I was guided to some site for a free download. To make a long story short, I accidentally downloaded some unwelcome adwares - not mention I still don't have the photo Editor. Anyway, I removed most these programs through Control Panel - Uninstall Program except the last one. This one is called "blasteroids", every time when I tried to uninstall it, it gave me a message of "SEIS (or EISS??) launching failure" and Norton 360 popped up saying an installer with .exe file containing Trojan virus was blocked. So now I am not able to remove this "blasteroids" and it pops up ads every time when I visit a website.
My question is: how do I remove this virus attached program?
I've succeeded in installing Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit on my HP Pavilion 15-n228us.how to adjust any settings on the touch pad / track pad, however. It's overly sensitive right now and interferes with typing.I assume I'm missing a driver that will enable me to control it?
i am using dell vostro 3546. After updating bios , usb 3.0 stopped working. Now reverting back changes is not working. it is prompting message that you cannot install the lower version of bios.
I've recently installed windows 8.1 and now have no sound. The speaker icon in the bottom right corner has a small red x on it, when i have the mouse over it, it says 'no audio output device is installed'. I found that updating the driver in sounds via the at control panel but this the said:
'Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while trying to install it
IDT HD Audio CODEC
A device attached to the system is not functioning'...
I have a HP Pavillion DV7-4050ea. Each time i restart the computer, the date time does not update. I have changed the the battery (CR2032) to no effect. Is there anything I can do to ensure the correct date and time updates each time I restart the computer.
I updated BIOS (it's now Hewlett-Packard F.49) with a download from HP's website. I wish I hadn't done that because it made my laptop ill. When booting up it freezes and the only thing I see is the black screen with HP logo. No button works.
Later I've found out that BIOS itself ain't the problem (I tried to recover the old version for long without any success), it's the USB devices attached or the USB ports, dunno. My laptop boots normally and works perfectly if I take off all the USB plug-ins before I press the power button. After the black screen has passed I can plug in the USBs and they work too.URL....
i am using HP Pavilion G6 core i 3, my touch pad is working properly but the cursor lock option on touch pad is not working.when i double click on top left corner to lock the cursor nothing is happening..

fter examining the configuration files included in the latest build of OS X, a new report has discovered references to two new MacBook Pro models.
The 10C531 build of the 10.6.2 update contained the configuration files in question, according to Spanish-language site Applesana.es. The models referenced are the MacBook Pro 6.1 and the MacBook Pro 6.1b. The current crop of MacBook Pros have a 5.(x) designation, spanning 5.1 through 5.5.
The MacBook Pro line was not updated during the latest Apple refresh, when Apple introduced Intel's Core i5 and i7 processors to the newly redesigned iMac line.
The Intel Core i7 mobile processors, formerly code named Clarksfield, reportedly offer better performance with multi-threaded applications and can increase the processor clock speed up to 75 percent to match workloads..............
I'm a bit embarassed to bring this post to the forum as looking down the list nobody's posting about these lappies these days!
Basically, my hard drive's full of stuff I don't want to delete (or move to external), my dvd writer needs a paperweight to keep it closed up and the keyboard is like it has glue under the keys!
So, I can't afford to replace it at the moment and I still love the screen and the occasional Doom3 etc (sad I know). I've done some research here - but would appreciate some guidance on which bits to buy.
The drive - I know it's got to be PATA(?) but which drive should I aim for if any? Also, will all the PATA 2.5" drives fit, do I take the bits off the existing one to put on the new? Is there a limitation on the amount of hard drive memory the system will recognise?
After I updated the BIOS on M1210 the laptop doesn't start again. The power light start for seconds then goes off, I cannot hear the hard disk movement or any hardware except the power light....
My new studio 15 (1555) arrived today and the instructions advised to update the computer with the latest Bios and drivers.
I followed the instructions and all was going well (I could see various things being downloaded) until my son clicked on a window that had popped up (believe it was from McAfee) and the computer switched off.
I went back to the Dell support to ascertain if everything had been downloaded properly and attempted to download the files again unfortunately I kept getting a message that no files have been selected .....
I have a problem with my Dell E1705. I would like to upgrade my BIOS but unfortunately i cant.
I try to upgrade from A02 to A09 with no results. Every time I try to do it the error was always popin up:
What you suggest to do? I try with different version on BIOS because i thought maybe it's impossible to upgrade from A02 to A09 but I have the same results
I even tried to downgrade to A01 the same I try to update to A02 which I already got. I had no positive results at all
Found new GPU driver on Sony support site, followed the instructions , wish it was in English not Engrish, the instructions were somehow inconsistent,l proceeded with it anyway, system restarted.
The result is blank, black display and I have no clue how to proceed. I supposed after uninstalling the driver, Windows will restart with default driver then I could install the new Nvidia.
I hoped using the Recovery disc can help restart, but it only repairs defective boot nothing else/ there is 0 error there.
Alright, so to start off I'll just say that I love the DV2. I bought the dual core version loaded when it first went up for customization at the HP site. I have, however, noticed that it can run a tad hot.
When I first got it, without a cooler, the CPUs usually went from between 41c-45c from light usage, and the GPU from between 51c-55c. Even when propping the back up I only saw a drop of 1c total. I bought a small cooler for it and saw a fairly good drop. The temps of the CPU where down to 36c-39c and the gpu was down to 45c-49c with both sometimes even going lower depending on how much the AC in the house was on.
I did try some gaming on this, playing some HL2. The CPU got to 60c at the highest and the GPU also only got to about 60c while on the cooling pad.
So, a few days ago I updated my BIOS to the latest on for the DV2 from the HP site. I noticed right away that my temps where higher. The temps while on my cooler where the same as they used to be without it, and with the cooler off the GPU was getting up to 60c while at idle. I tried a few things, like setting the GPU to low power mode with the Catalyst controls, but that didn't help.
Not sure what to do I noticed this morning that I hadn't gotten SP2 for Vista yet. So I decided to get it in hopes that it would help.. now my DV2 is even hotter. On the cooling pad my CPU was at around 60c and GPU was at 65c while at idle. I've had it on all day, with all the vents in my room open and the AC up high and the lowest it's gotten is to 50c for the CPU and 55 for the GPU.
do I do it in Bootcamp or download them on OSX and then they are installed next time that I load up bootcamp. I ask because last time I did, it stoped all my hotkeys, sound, and backlight keyboard.
After turning on my G71 laptop, Windows updates automatically started loading. The screen then went blank. I have tried various start up methods with no luck. both CAPS and NUMBER LOCK lights are illuminated. Have tried to get to BIOS without any luck.
everytime the vaio update wants to update the setting utility series but everytime the installation fails.is there any workaround for installing the latest version.
So I bought a sealed box 8530w off eBay. Now I know from previous HP business models that the warranty start date on the online lookup tool starts from the day the laptop was manufactured. This hasn't ever been an issue in the past, since I got previous laptops second hand anyway.
But this one is already nearly 6 months into its 3 year warranty. I guess it has been sitting around sealed in its box for a while.
So...
1. Is there any way I can get HP to update the warranty start date? (I'm getting an invoice from the seller as we speak)
2. Assuming I can, will that new warranty start date be reflected in the online lookup?
3. Will the new warranty start date be transferable if I sell the laptop, or will it only apply to me, with my name on the invoice?
I recently updated my Yoga 13 to Windows 8.1 and am now experiencing significant lag when resuming from suspend and periodically while I work. Often I will type and not see the text on the screen for another 5+ seconds.
I have run Malwarebytes and Windows Defender and found no malware. By keeping an eye on the task manager I have not been able to identify a misbehaving process.
My Acer V3-371 that I bought 5 days ago is slow after updating BIOS from v1.05 (when I bought) to v1.08 and v1.11.
I have checked hardwares and see that: - CPU: OK - RAM: OK - Wifi, Ethernet, Bluetooth: OK - HDD: NOT OK (see the attached picture) This situation usually occurs to halt the system for a while repeatedly.
(Both of OS Win 7/8/8.1/10 Preview and MS Office software are installed from the iso files downloaded from Microsoft websites)
I carried it to Acer Service Center, but they could not find out any problem with HDD and missed to check the compatibility of BIOS with HDD.
