Hi out there,
I have a new Compaq Pro 6300 (new to me) and everything works just fine except the audio. The speaker icon has a red " X " on it had when I roll my mouse over it, it tells me there is no output device installed. What does this mean? Anyone?
I messed up the BIOS update and now my computer won't display anything. I've tried multiple times to update it via USB, but every time I try using my second computer, the program doesn't give me any option to use a USB drive. Instead it attempts to update the bios on my second computer. The video and guide from the HP site shows that option, but after several attempts to follow the guide, no other option is given, other than straight out installing the new bios. On a side note, the windows key and B key option doesn't seem to work on my machine.
Have been attempting to DISPUTE WARRANTY for three weeks and have hit brick wall at every turn.
An HP assistant handed me off to a specialist and we worked back and forth almost every day for 3 weeks and we were never able for devise a way to send JPEG of Walmart receipt. Seems incredible. His email would not work despite three of my associates attempted to send JPEG from there home computers. My warranty is up on September 15 and I need a repair.
Does anyone have a telephone number to talk to a live person?

I cannot open above BIOS link on windows 10 (64 bit), simply get the message that app has been blocked.

My computer was shut down 3/4 times w/out proper shutdown process (storm, then a couple accidental shutdowns) within 4 hr period. I have a surge protector. Getting error message saying 'bad start up configuration' and won't start up. I'm not able to re-intall Windows. Suggestions?
Very frustrating experience with BSOD Kmode exceptions causing regular restarts.
My W10 64 bit Home behaved for only a few minutes before restart was triggered, though all HP Support Assist hardware and software checks were passed including all suggested updates.
My capable computer services guy tried fresh loads of W10 etc and eventually solved the problem by updating to the last release of BIOS F43 (released in 16 July 2020). Evidently the most recent W10 update could not be handled by my previous BIOS (I think it was F40).
Computer is now running well, but cost me some stress during the week of testing.
Why didn't HP Support Assist suggest the BIOS update as soon as the W10 update was circulated? I am on the normal release as I have found that the fast release of updates too risky.
My experience might help other users seeing the same problem.
PC ran into problem and needs to restart. Windows needs to be reinstalled? Thanks.

Can Someone Please Help me. It started a month ago when I found out I could dual boot my hp pavillion gaming desktop 690-0010. However it was unsuccessful the boot logo would not appear anymore so I panicked and thought my bios was ruined. So I used a method where it restores bios it was win + B on startup. But all it did was not make the computer boot and it let out beeps. So I sent it to hp where they fixed it when it arrived I turned it on to download some steam games left the room and came back to it off. When I pressed the power button nothing happened. A few days later my cousin looked at and he came to the conclusion that the power button was broke and the motherboard battery was dead. He replaced the battery and showed me how to turn it on without the switch using a screwdriver. We turned it on and we thought we fixed it so later in the night I was playing a game for like 2 hours and it shut off again. Can someone please help me this is really annoying since this thing is only 6 months old. Any help is appreciated.
I bought this in December. This is the 2nd time this has happened.
I get a blue screen telling me "kmode" windows can't load. NOTHING in the troubleshooting area works. No system restore, can't boot into safe mode, etc., etc. - the only thing is to reload windows, but I can't do it from a disk - has to be a USB.
I'm getting a little tired or redoing all my programs and losing the files I have accumulated - especially if nothing is fixed and I'm going to have to do it again in two months. This is NOT the way a NEW machine is supposed to behave! HP is NO help (I don't know when they are going to figure out that FAQs are not a substitute for actual HELP - or if they give a **bleep**)
Has anyone else had this problem and found a way to FIX it?

My computer always seems to be utilizing 100% of the CPU for extended periods of time. When I open task manager the 2 main culprits are System interups & Service Host:Sysmain. I have run all HP diagnostics as I believed from reading it might be a hardware problem. All tests have passed. I thought as my All-in-one came with only 8Gb or RAM it might be struggling so installed an extra 8Gb but his has not helped the problem. Internet pages are slow to load and on occasions the computer will do a soft restart and I have to log back in. I have gone into my startup and have disabled all nonessential programs from starting and have run a full malware and anti-virus scan. If I was to describe the noise my computer makes I would say it sounds like a large fan running.
I recently purchased an intel core i5 9400f for my hp pavilion 510-p030xt desktop pc, but the pc will not boot with the new processor, I switched it back to my old i5-6400t and then it booted perfectly fine. Is there a bios update or some type of update I can get for my core i5 9400f to work with my pavilion? If so, which one? Also, I have to original motherboard that came with my pavilion
