I have HP Pavilion g6-2301AX laptop, which has Hitachi HTS545050A7E380 500GB 5400RPM HDD.
However, I am planning to upgrade my laptop to Hitachi Hitachi HTS721010A9E630 1TB 7200RPM HDD.
My question is, whether this HDD supported by my laptop?
I am using HP pavillion g6 2301ax with windows 8.1 installed on it. I tried to run the hp support assistant but it didn't run.
The program opens but it remains blank. It does not show anything on it, only hp support assistant is written on the top.
After I close the program, automatically a message appears "Hp support assistant is not working. Windows is finding a solution to it." Then the message disappears.
I just bought a Hitachi bulk data encryption, but unfortunately I don't have hdd password feature in bios.
Is there any possibility to upgrade bios with this option or install the ata security feature?
I have HP Pavilion G6-2301ax recently i upgraded from windows 8 to windows 8.1 and there is no proper drivers for graphics and Wi-Fi.So can you update the drivers which is fully supported.The games never used to lag in windows 8 but it is stuttering in windows 8.1. Can you update to latest catalyst version for this laptop?

After upgradation, the bluetooth software is not working...
An unknown icon appears on my desktop named " Thumbs.db ". It appears on my desktop screen as well as in some files and folders. Whenever I delete that icon, it goes for some time but again comes back on the desktop. And sometimes after deleting the file the desktop turns completely blank with purple background and again comes back to normal in few seconds.

I have a 160GB 7200RPM with Free Fall Sensor harddrive and the unstoppable clicking of my Seagate hard drive is driving me nuts. so I have three choices:
I have my 160GB Hitachi 7200 RPM Hardderive from my old system that i can strip off before is end back to dell. This hd does not have free fall sensor.
They are sending me a Fujitsu 160GB 7200 RPM one that has FFS.
I recently purchased a Hitachi 7k200 200GB hard drive and used the trial version of Acronis True Image to transfer the image of my old drive to the new one. It all seemed to work fine, but today I was going to use GParted liveCD to delete my Vista partition, and saw that the drive only showed a size of 110GB. It had been showing 186GB before today. I checked the size on Acronis, and it said the size was 110GB as well.
why it is doing this? 70GB of unallocated space can't just disappear. How can I get my system to recognize the full size of the drive again?
I was messing around some this morning with reinstalling Dell's Media Direct, could that have caused it?
HP Pavilion dv7-6175us notebook pc, Windows 7 64 bit I haven't made any major changes, no new software or hardware installed (just the usual gazillion updates for every **bleep** program and operating system) I have tried uninstalling and re-installing HP support assistant several times, but still keep getting the same error message, something about HPSA.exe encountering a fatal error, yadda yadda yadda, end of the world everyone run screaming into the streets.

Before, it would not play any sound, now it will play the support assistant narration, but nothing else.
For a while, it has been playing sound every now and then, now it will not at all, except for the narration.
I am using a HP pavilion 15 016tx laptop that runs on windows 8. I am trying to update to Windows 8.1, but im unable to do so. I tried it by formatting my laptop and selecting the update from windows store, but it asked me to update windows, which i did, but not the option is not available . I tried to update from Microsoft wibsite but it the store says my laptop is running on a OS that does not support update..
Earlier last month i was able to open the update option but as i didn't had time so i did not use it.
I have problem to check HP Updates using HP Support Assistant for last two months. It always fail downloading updates.
Latest analysis was at 9 Oct 2011.
How to fix this problem? When I check latest version of HP Support Assistant, it says it is the latest version.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently bought an OEM Vista Home Premium 64-bit and installed is yesterday. I chatted to a Dell tech support guy today and he essentially said that I wasted my money on the 64-bit OS as Dell laptops do not support 64-bit Operating systems. He said this was due to the fact that my processor (see above) was a 32bit processor. I however came accross this intel site;[url] whci i believe to be my processor that states it is a 64-bit processor.
Another thing; in the dell tech support application, my total memory is shown as 4GB, whilst my available memory is shown to be 2.6GB. Does this mean that all 4GB is not being recognised/utilised? Or does it simply mean that 1.4GB of RAM is currently being used, with 2.6GB left for when I need it?
I would just like to share my recent experience with Acer support and was wondering if others have the same experience.
When I bought my Acer 8930 with Vista installed I was very happy. Started to install and change everything to my liking. I played the HD disk that came with it and all was ok. 2 Days later the same disk would not play anymore. Ok no problem I had other things to do.
I was also transferring files between the Acer (Intel wifi card build in) and was getting speeds of 2.1MB/s. My IMac on the same network was showing 4-6MB/s. So, I installed a netrgear USB 300 adapter on the Acer (using an external drive, because the Acer drive was still not working) and I got indeed the speeds of 4-6MB/s.
So I contacted Acer support. Their reply: " please contact the manufacturer of the network card...." Oh wow, can you imagine if the light of your car does not work. Do you bring your car to the dealer or to Philips?
A few days later I installed Windows 7 64bit after installing all I contacted Acer again. This time about the drive. Their reply:" Please reinstall Vista, in order to do a better analysis, because the laptop was sold with Vista and not Windows 7."
Both replies are absolute Bull**** (excuse my French). I gave them my opinion and will wait until Monday to get a reply. If it is still a reply in the same trend as previous I will ship the laptop back with the friendly request to repair it.
Is this normal for a company such as Acer?

View 10 Replies View RelatedEarly last week my XPS M1330 started to blue screen and suffer screen pixelation issues on a frequently recurring basis.
Thanks to this forum I was soon able to deduce that my GPU was suffering from the well known GPU over-heating issue.
I called Dell XPS premium support on Wednesday afternoon and got through to someone in India who was extremely curtious, spoke excellent english and was obviously technically savy.
Anyone know the status on Sony's support for virtualization? What models support it
View 10 Replies View RelatedIt is known that due to marketing strategies Sony decided to limit the maximum memory supported by Z690 (aka Z3) down to 6GB, despite the fact that there are reports about Z1, Z2 and Z4 installed 8GB successfully without a problem.
The working way is the stupid (and possibly risky) way:
1. Important: Clear all passwords in BIOS! (including main, user and HDD passwords) otherwise you may have to flash back to your current version to access BIOS settings.....
Would anyone care to share their expierences with Sony when dealing with a faulty product?

I have been VERY happy with the tech support that I have received form HP. I had some problems with the speaker on my DV7t-2000, and the HP tech support has been very helpful. They originally told me (after a phone conversation/attempted fix) that they would be sending me a box to send the computer in for a fix. I just got off the phone with them, and they told me that they will be sending a new version with updated specifications, mainly a 2.26ghz quad core processor (up from a 2.4ghz dual core), and 500gb worth of hard drive space (up from 320gb). They will also be giving me a fingerprint scanner and a more powerful wireless card.
All in all, I have to say that they have been FANTASTIC. I have heard horror stories about HP, but they seem to be just fine.
Do the Studio XPS machines get the customer support that the standard XPS machines do? That is, the American customer/tech support rather than the outsourced one?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI rely heavily on SDHC cards and use the built in card reader heavily in my Studio 1537.
I just bought a new Studio XPS 16 and it won't read my SDHC cards. I chatted with Dell last night and they took control of my system remotely.. They couldn't fix it, and finally said "The Studio XPS 16 does not support SDHC, you'll have to use regular SD"
I just find this hard to believe on a new, so called "State of the art system"
I also have a Studio 15 (1537) and SDHC works perfectly.
After fighting with several "Techs" and their "Supervisors" I returned the system and bought another..... AND, what do you know... I was right....It does support SDHC!!
I need to tell anyone and everyone before you buy any Dell and there so called WARRENTY.
this is an accually forem post and Dell's reply to me.. I'ts Unbelievable........................................
