Re: How do I Enable UEFI on my P5K16ET#ABU to upgrade to Windows 10
Re: BIOHD-3 Error was BIOHD-1
Hi SDF15,
Sorry, been out of town for a few days.
Please clarify What you mean by "create a case for your issue"?
Also, can you help solve the audio issue? I am having no luck with it either.

Re: Free Upgrade to Windows 10 was a disaster!
I am so with you it IS nothing but a disaster. I've been working tirelessly now for about 2 months to find the right 'solution' to reverting back to win 7, all to no avail as microsoft wiped out the 'partition' once the 30 days was up. This is the best part- once I figured out I needed professional help I called microsoft, am waiting for the 'recovery' discs to arrive and will need to pay microsoft $100, plus the cost of the disks. As far as I can see this is nothing but a 'money grab' by microsoft. 30 days was definitely not long enough to know if win 10 fit my needs, so again, it's a money grab.

See if performing any of the resolution steps from the link below resolves the issue.

Don't pay Microsoft, these solutions are much cheaper.
You can order HP recovery media below, or call HP on the phone to order 1-800-474-6836

Re: Please help, Computer freezes randomly while running any program, from Games to Solidworks
Greetings,
If the system is not running as smooth as a top after a factory recovery with no additional software or drivers installed it must be faulty hardware.
Send it back to seller if you are in the return/refund time frame.
You have top shelf components, more than enough ram, and a great graphics card. The PC should be quiet, fast, and a pleasure to use out of the box.
Cheers!
Re: Can I install a Ubuntu desktip 14.04.4 LTS to HP All-in-One - 20-r212l (T0Q96AA)?
Hi
I am sure you can, FIRST thing to consider is Creating Recovery Media for Windows before you touch anything else.
NB:- You may have hidden recovery partitions, and if so they have a VolumeID that is crucial to Windows Recovery and must not be changed at all.
There are lots of Linux versions you could choose to run as Live versions before commiting to an install of any particular distro.
I shrank the Windows partition and created an NTFS area for data, and then a swap, home and root in the space remaining.
So please ask again if you want any further help.
Re: Need Help updating BIOS for for Envy 750se rom family ssid 2b4b

I have bios A.08 dated November 2015, but the only bios shown on HP's site is a.07 for 2b4b and its actually newer. I need to see if there is a bios update and update it to get improved support for Samsung 950 PRO m.2 NBME SSD, which is booting but takes 2 mins for the bios to recognize it before it starts.
Try installing version A0.12 Rev.A (04/02/2016) from this link.
Re: Need Help updating BIOS for for Envy 750se rom family ssid 2b4b
Hi there, does it matter if the rom family ssid is wrong on this bios update?
When i run the file, it extracts to c:\swsetup\sp74319 and nothing happens. I then ran it as administrator and for a brief second it puts some more files in there, then the extra files disappear. The extra files that briefly appear are Gui_a012.exe dated 11/16/15, me.bat, ME111180.BIN dated 10/5/15, and a few others. However they are gone almost instantly and nothing appears to happen. id.log is generated with today's date and contains this "00813"
Need driver old printer new Mac
My old iMac crashed and I'm am having to start fresh with a new onw, now running El Capitan. I need the driver for my CP3505 printer. I can find the link to download a driver upgrade, but my problem is that the original driver is no longer on my hard drive, so there is nothing to upgrade. Is there a way to download a new driver rather than an upgrade?
HP Pavilion Elite HPE ignores power settings after reinstalling using recovery software.
Recently I had to reinstall windows 7 using the HP recovery software that came with it after a failed update prevented the computer from booting up at all.
This went mostly without any problem, however after the recovery had finished, the computer ignored most power settings. To be precise, it ignores all settings except those directly related to sleep mode unless it is set to high performance.
I installed all windows 7 updates and updated all drivers to the latest version without solving this issue.
Does anyone know what could cause this?
The model is HPE 410-nl, the product number is XS319EA#ABH.
Thank you for your time.
Availability of programs after clean install of Win 10
If I upgrade free to Windows 10, I should still have the programs that came installed with my computer. After that, if I do a clean install of Windows 10, is there a way for me to still have those programs available for use on my computer?
Re: Can I install a Ubuntu desktip 14.04.4 LTS to HP All-in-One - 20-r212l (T0Q96AA)?
Hi
If you are buying new I still suggest creating the recovery media in windows, it may be needed later. AND if you sell the device it will enhance the value in future years.
The Wi-Fi is unlikely to work, you may need to apt-get a driver with ethernet first, I had to with Debian and Ubuntu is Debian based.
If in doubt please ask.
Re: Can I install a Ubuntu desktip 14.04.4 LTS to HP All-in-One - 20-r212l (T0Q96AA)?
Hi
If you want to write some of this down and take it along.... (hope it helps).
https://wiki.debian.org/WiFi that has a list of wireless drivers.
You could try typing
aptitude install wireless-tools
#############################
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
To determine what wireless card/chipset you have, first determine whether it is a separate device plugged into the computer or not. If it is a separate USB device, open up a terminal and type the following:
lsusb
lspci -v
############################
NDISWRAPPER
Many vendors do not release specifications of the hardware or provide a Linux driver for their wireless network cards. This project implements Windows kernel API and NDIS (Network Driver Interface Specification) API within Linux kernel. A Windows driver for wireless network card is then linked to this implementation so that the driver runs natively, as though it is in Windows, without binary emulation.
With ndiswrapper, most miniPCI (builtin), PCI, PCMCIA (Cardbus only) or USB wireless network cards work in Linux with x86 or x86-64. Although ndiswrapper is intended for wireless network cards, other devices are known to work: e.g., ethernet cards, USB to serial port device, home phone network device etc.
This wiki aims to be a knowledge base for ndiswrapper.
Re: Availability of programs after clean install of Win 10
Hi,
1. Yes and please remember to select the RIGHT option: keep all users data and programs. Some programs may not work after that but very rare.
2. Clean means discard everything. This installtion will remove everything, please try the following options:

Re: Mini pavilion 300 020 speed
Thank you for the suggestion.
I can stream wirelessly perfectly well on a 15 year old laptop and three other (android) tablets. I do not think the issue is with the broadband.
Could someone advise me if this PC is just underpowered and not able to stream video? I have diabled all start up programs, diabled windows defender, disabled HP help centre. But still have 50mb being usedby system host. I am at a loss for what to do next.
Thanks

Re: HP Notebook System BIOS Update (And Processors)
I keep getting a message to install/update to this but when I do via the message center, it shows "installing" for more than 4hrs and just hangs up. I tried downloading the .exe file and installing that way, but when I do, it shows "this file being used by another program". SO, does that mean it DID install but for some reason the message center is not showing it?
