HP Pavilion G4 Display :: Not Able To Install Switchable Graphics After Fresh Windows 7 Install

Apr 13, 2014

I replaced hard drive with SSD and installed windows 7 ultimate (X64) on my HP Pavilion G4 notebook. However, I am not able to install switchable graphics on my laptop now.
 
I have tried this
1. Installed HPSA and ran update and tuneup. It asked me to update "AMD High-Definition Graphics Driver" but it failed with multiple retries and after some time now it doesnt ask to do this update at all. Now everything is green in HPSA but I am still not able to switch the graphics
2. Tried to download from HP drivers page but it says "AMD Catalyst Mobility cannot be downloaded due to incompatible harware/software on your computer"
3. Tried uninstalling the driver but windows updates the drivers automatically.
4. I also updated BIOS as suggested at [URL] ..... but still no luck......
 
Product Name: HP Pavilion g4 Notebook PC
Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit Service Pack 1
Product number : LQ375PA#AB

Mar 29, 2013

I have a hp pavilion touch 14 notebook pc which turned out to have a faulty Hard disk as the OS was not booting and the system test's indicated that the hard disk had errors. I replaced the hard disk with a new one and before installing the Hard Disk I formatted it with a win 8.1 installation. I was thinking the laptop would just boot normally to win8, but instead gave me a screen saying:
 
boot device not found please install an operating system on your hard disk hard disk (3f0)
 
The hard disk is new and I don't no how its giving me this error!
 
Also, this laptop doesn't seem to want to boot from a cd to format!

i have recently purchased a vostro 5460 which comes with windows 8 and not windows 8 pro which appears to be a requirement if i wish to downgrade, as tabled here: [URL] .....

I am constantly losing wifi connectivity with this new laptop or having slowed down connectivity with 2 out of 5 bars even from 20 feet away; the pages i try to load constantly jump to loading pages previously loaded, etc. I have an inspiron desktop at home with windows 7 i have used for the past three years which have given me no such problems, so i am finding all this interruptions extremely frustrating.

HP Pavilion G7 OS/Software :: Cannot Locate Windows 8 Install Disk

May 7, 2014

I recently Had my HP Pavilion G7 crash on me which ran windows 8 (OEM) I was unable to restore it. I decided to downgrade to windows vista and do a clean install due to the fact I connot locate my w8 install disk. The problem im having is my network,display adaptors and other devices arent working and showing a yellow triangle with an exclamation point and ive done some research and tried fixes like unistalling and reinstalling but it still not working.Here is what is showing up with the exclamation points in yellow
 
network adapters
-acer NIC - 559A pro/100+ with alert on lan 2
 
Other devices
- SM bus Controller
-Universal serial bus(usb) controller
-universal serial bus (usb) controller
-Unkown device
 
I feel like if i can get online and get windows to update some of these things will clear up and fix. Now i did have problems with realtek PCIe FE Family Controller but i went and found the driver for that.here are some system info:
 
system Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard
system model: HP pavilion g7 notebook pc
system type: x86 based pc (32bit)
processor:  AMD A8 -4500M APU WITH RADEOM(TM) HD GRAPHICS,1900 HMZ 4 CORES
 
I did call HP free support because my warranty was up and they told me it seemed like an software issue or corruption and they felt confident they could fix it but they wanted me to pay for tech support which i dont mind but it would be a monthly service charge which i dont need constant tech support this is the first time ive ran into this issue they also told me that the tech would have me enter some Commands in command prompt to resolve this.

HP Display :: Pavilion G6-1279sl / Switchable Graphics Not Available After A Windows 7 Clean Install

Oct 13, 2014

I had to clean install Windows 7 due to a problem I created in the first place. Anyway, everything runs fine, except for the Radeon graphic card. 

I own a HP Pavilion g6-1279sl Notebook. It's supposed to have an Intel HD Graphics 3000 and a AMD Radeon HD6470M.

I installed the last version of the Catalyst driver, and when I right click on the desktop, it says "switchable graphics", but if I click on that, it just shows me another option from the Catalyst, HydraGrid. 

Using a tool that displays which graphic card is running, I noticed that even when I'm running games, the Intel Graphic Card is working, giving an overall worse performance than the Radeon should give. I mean, the Radeon is never working. I also tried to disable the Intel from Device Manager (I think it's called like this, I have an Italian laptop), and it gave problems due to the Radeon card not working properly.

The BIOS is updated and no option is there about Switchable Graphics.

Is there anything I can do to have back that feature?

Lenovo 11e E/Edge :: E531 Not Able To Boot From CD It Always Boot Into Preinstalled Windows 8

Nov 14, 2013

just received my new E531 Edge Thinkpad from Lenovo.
 
Right now I'm not able to boot from CD, it will always boot into the preinstalled Windows 8.
 
I've tried the F12 method to select a different boot device during startup where I can see the installed DVD RAM drive and select it, but no effect it returns immediately to the select screen.
 
I've played around with the various BIOS setting disabling the secure boot option and changing the boot order so that the DVD drive is first. Then the system will check for the the CD (you can hear it spinning during start up) but will start into Windows 8 right afterwards again.
 
I checked with various bootable CDs as well as DVDs but always same effect.
 
What am I missing? Any other BIOS or Windows 8 settings I need to change for that.
 
I have other Lenovo notebooks running like the X230, the T520 or an older T61 where booting from CD never seems to be an issue.
 
As the DVD drive is working correctly within Windows 8 I assume that it is in general functioning and shouldn't be broken.

HP Networking :: Pavilion G6 - Missing Ethernet / Network And PCI Device After Clean Install Of Windows 7 64bit

Jul 25, 2014

I've received a used HP Pavilion G6 - 1C40CA. 

There was a clean install of Windows 7 Home Premium- 64bit.

After searching around online, got a hint of what to do.

Made it to the Device Manager, these are missing or non existant (small yellow exclamation triangle):

Ethernet Controller (Hardware ID: PCI/VEN_10EC&DEV_8136)
Network Controller (Hareware ID: PCI/VEN_14E4&DEV_4727)
PCI Device (Hareware ID: PCI/VEN_10EC&DEV_5209)
SM Bus Controller (Hardware ID: PCI/VEN_1022&DEV_780B)
 
Along with finding the proper downloads, I'm not sure in which order I should be installing them (if there is a specific order at all), and if I need to reboot every time I install something new.

HP/Compaq :: Dv6-1260se & Preinstalled Programs

Sep 27, 2009

I recently bought the dv6-1260se, 'Artists Edition' and am so far loving it, except for the whole Windows Vista Issue.

I've had it a whole 3 days and it's already throwing errors. I installed Aion and World of Warcraft, and for one day, WoW could alt-tab fine. Now it gives a green alt-tab box and only shows the start/task bar. I hafta complete restart the entire thing to fix it, it won't even tab back to the game. Also, when I tried to use a bluetooth mouse, it started throwing HID errors. I update the quicklauch buttons like the HP help suggested, but still no luck. I got the bluetooth mouse to work, but discovered it was pretty bleh and it lagged when in games. Windows Vista is up-to-date save for Service Pack 2. The ATI video drivers are also updated from ATI.

I have Windows 7 RC on all the other computers in the house, and had it on my prior Compaq 3 year old beast before the board fried itself for the last time. I've already pre-ordered my Windows 7 for this laptop through HP, but I'm not sure if I can wait till oct. 22.

However, the Artists Edition comes with alot of decent preloaded software. Corel's paintshop pro, painter and something else. Also there's Stardock's MyColors, LoginStudio and I think Object Desktop. Some of these programs have a beta for Win 7, others don't.

However, I don't have registration keys or anything for these programs. I don't think I'll have problems with Corel's stuff (if Win 7 translates the reg keys correctly), but Stardock's stuff will hafta be eventally updated and they need keys for updates.

HP/Compaq :: 2530p: How Much Unwanted Stuff Preinstalled

May 20, 2009

after lots of considering and looking for alternatives I finally ordered a 2530p today. After all, I think this is the best notebook for me.

I never bought a computer where a full windows version is not available on CD and thus never had bad experience with lots of stuff preinstalled.

How bad are the 'extras' on HP business computers in Europe? And do you have any advice on how to clear the computer up and what to delete?

looking at the order sheet I'm a bit confused regarding the OS

OS: Vista Business wXPP OFC Ready 2530p O/S
Restore Media: DRDVD Win XP 2530p Recover Media
Restore Media: OSCD Windows XP Pro Media

My guess is that someone forgot to update the order website

I have an acer aspire 6930z with a bluetooth button but no hardware installed, though the software is installed. I have bought a bluetooth dongle and installed it on my desktop running xp everything works OK. Installed it on my laptop but it only partly works with the pre-installed software. I don't know how to remove the installed software.

It does say in the installation instructions that any old bluetooth software should be removed first.
