HP ProBook 6555b OS/Software :: Windows 8 Not Shut Down
Oct 29, 2012
I had apre-installed windows7 on my HP ProBook 6555b. Today I upgraded to windows 8 but now I can't be bale to shut it down. I press the power button (or else I click on "shut-down" from the settings of the charm bar) but it goes in stand by not sht down. I checked the save battery settings and everything is ok. I contacted microsoft, they said me that it is a problem of compatibility with Hp, because windows 8 has a native antivirus and firewall, so it is a conflict between this windows 8 antivirus/firewall with a pre-installed saving energy software of HP.
I'm trying to download the latest drivers for my laptop from this page: [URL] But when I reach the point to choose the operating system, the drop down menu to choose from is empty. It has only one line: "Select...". Tried to open it with both firefox and the latest Internet explorer without any luck.
I think I downloaded malware with a fake Java update I accidentally downloaded. I believe if I revert to an earlier date, I may solve my problem. I have an hp Probook 6555b using Windows 7.

When I turn my computer on, it loads to a gray screen saying "No boot image found, notebook will shut down". There is a blue button that says "OK" under this sentence. When I click it, the computer turns off.
The Windows Vista OS on my dv9000 Laptop has been shut down by Microsoft citing an expired Licence. This is preinstalled OS by HP. How can I get my OS reinstated without buying a new one?
My Lenovo Ideapad Flex laptop does not switch on when I press the power button. It was working till this morning, when I switched it off (via an operating system shut down in Windows 8.1). When I tried to turn it on an hour later, I found that pushing the power button has no effect at all.
I tried pushing the novo button. In this case the laptop does turn on and shows the "lenovo" welcome screen for a few seconds. However, it promptly switches off again. The symptoms do not depend on the laptop being connceted to power: they are exactly the same in the two cases.
All Windows, drivers and antivirus are updated and free of virus and/ro coruped files. Chekdisk reports no problem. cannot read Mini DUMP files. Blue screen to quick to read.
My computer is about a year old. When I turn it on, it will Go to the home screen & then it will go to a blue screen with a message that says a problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to the computer. Technical Information: STOP: 0x0000007E .How can I fix this so I can get back on to use my computer?
I bought HP Probook 450 G1 Notebook PC in March, 2014. I installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. For the first few days it worked well without any problem. But now about 60% of the time when I try to shut it down, it freezes at "Shutting Down..." screen. I then need to press the power button for some time to force it to go off.
1. How can I permanently get rid of this problem?
2. If I can't, then is this problem a serious one that can harm my pc?
I have problem with my new HP ProBook 450 G1 (I bought it two weeks ago). When I'm working everything is fine. CPU Temperature rarely is above 50 Celcius degrees. Most time about 45. When I leave my computer, after about 2 minutes temperature is going high to about 70 degrees. I thought there are some background processes but I killed almost every external app and in task manager nothing uses processor. What's going on?
I'm using Windows 8.1 Pro (Student Edition from Dreamspark)
I can add that in Linux (Suse) everything is fine.
I recently bought a Probook 455 G1 and I would like to create Windows 8 installation media for it. However, the setup tool provided by Microsoft doesn't accept the OEM key found by my KeyFinder program. Where to download (unmodified) 64-bit Windows 8 installation media legally?
I am looking for a driver for the "Unknown device" ACPIHPQ6007 on HP Probook 430 G1 for Windows 7 64-bit. Looking for driver or URL for download ( I did look at Microsoft and update to the last version), but still get the "Unknown device".
I installed windows 8.1 on my Probook 450 G1 and I could not find any ATI Radeon 8750M drivers to it. The windows 8 drivers are not working properly in windows 8.1 ...
I'm having an issue with my HP Probook 4530s where sound sometimes won't play. I downloaded the approriate audio driver for my computer. If I click on an application that needs administrator permissions and the User Account Control pops up, it won't play the system sound like it normally does. If I click on the speaker icon on the bottom right and adjust the volume slider it doesn't make a sound. I've also noticed that when I stream any type of video on the internet, the video won't play until the sound works again. Sometimes the video plays with no sound, then the sound catches up. I've tried many different browsers but the issue keeps happeneing regarless.
When my computer ran Windows 7, the audio worked fine. Videos always played, and system sounds always executed on cue. My motherboard got replaced at the end of last year due to overheating so I don't think it's a hardware issue. The weird thing is that this issue isn't consistent. One minute the sound could be working flawlessly, but two minutes later the sound just stops working.
I could try and capture a video of the issue I'm having and post it on Youtube, but it's difficult since the issue is sporadic. If I do get a video of it, I'll be sure to post the link.
Last night my laptop was working perfectly and then when I tried to turn the computer on, it loaded and went to the startup screen with the Microsoft logo and from there it got stuck. I tried to hit F11 but no satisfactory result. I've also tried to take the battery out, but that didn't work either. I also tried to Setup my windows bt it also stuck up there. I don't know what to do...I also ran tests on both the Hard Drive and Memory (Esc>> F10>> File>>System Diagnostics>>Memory tese/Hard Disk test). And the result was:Hard Disk Check: "Quick Check: SMART Check: NOT AVAILABLE and Short DST: WARNING" and "Extensive Check: PASSED in everything"Memory Check: PASSED now what should i do?Mine model is HP ProBook 4440s...Currently running on Windows 7.
I've started using HP ProBook 4530s with Intel Graphics on it. Then, I installed Win 7 Ultimate x64 on it and figured out, that brightness buttons don't work. (sound/music controls/sleep buttons works fine) Automatic
I resently brought a new laptop probook 450 G1. I want to download drivers for windows 8.1 operating system. When I check the driver download page it list many drivers for e.g under wirless network they list many drivers. How do I know which one to download exactly. I tried finding exact specifications for my product but they only have a general one for the model no which described all posible haredware.
I'm currently running XP and need to upgrade to Windows 7 Pro. I understand that I'll need to do a clean installation, but I'm wondering if my computer will support Win7Pro?
The computer is running an Intel Core2 Duo CPU t6570 @ 2.10GHz (2.09 GHz), 2.99 GB RAM.
I recently purchased a ProBook 4540S C6Z35UT notebook computer. I love the hardware. It came with Windows 8 64-bit. I never tried Windows 8 before, but I've used Windows 7 a lot. After playing with it quite a bit, I've decided I really don't like Windows 8 at all. The Start screen just gets in the way. I want a standard desktop where I can plop down some common docs I'm referencing, common program icons, etc. The flipping to the neo-Win7 desktop that Windows 8 does is quite lame. If you run a desktop program from the start menu, you flip to the desktop, but then it stays there after that program exits. It's a very "hack" design. The start menu is cute for touch pads ("surface"s) but not really laptop/desktop appropriate, imho.
So my question is: if I purchase a Windows 7 or Windows 7 Pro 64-bit version of Windows, can I install it on this machine and will it have the right driver support? Also, in case something gets messed up, is there a way to create a Windows 8 install DVD for my laptop to get it back to original state?
I have a 1 year old HP Probook 4540s that recently has the following problem.
When unplugged the laptop suddenly shuts down even tough the battery shows 29% still remaining.
I receive no notification from Windows or anything, it just shut downs like when the battery reaches 0%.
Then in order to start it again, I need to plug it in.
I previously didn't have any battery problems and running the HP Assistant informs me that the battery is ok and it doesn't need replacements. Basically the laptop is dead at 28%-29% battery life.
I just tried connecting my ps3 controllers to my laptop and I realized its not detecting my bluetooth adapter. I am on a probook 470 g1 with a realtek 8188 ee wifi card, is the bluetooth adapter built into it ?
I have tried ALL drivers on the support page, realtek bluetooth driver for win 8.1 says that don't have a realtek bluetooth adapter.
Does my probook 470G1 even have bluetooth? or is this a windows 8.1 driver issue ....
