Network Controller Driver or Restore Disc Needed!

$
0
0

My computer came with XP originally, but I eventually upgraded to Vista with no problems - I even used the disc a few more times in the future as a system recovery method.  This time around, however, it installed but with no internet connection.  In Device Manager, it shows that the network controller has a yellow warning sign beside it, as well as audio and graphics.  The main thing I'm interested in is connecting to the internet so Windows Update can probably fix the rest of missing stuff.

 

I've scoured the internet almost-endlessly to find the network controller drivers.  The network adapter drivers are loaded fine, but without the network controller it won't recognize that there's a cable already plugged in (I've already checked both-ends, re-plugged several times, even wiggled to make sure contacts were meeting). 

 

I should also mention I no longer have the original restore disc.  Restore points are useless, since the restore point is Vista's incomplete installation (I've reinstalled once since discovering this problem with same results). 

 

It won't let me contact HP support directly, says I can only go here.  Do you guys have the network controller drivers/whatever I need available?  Otherwise, I'd like to buy a new restore disc.

 

I paid hundreds for this at the time.  Please don't tell me that I've got a hunk of junk with no more support. 

HP Omen 870-130 White screen

Greetings,

 

I received my computer yesterday and as of today I began updating my drivers. It looks like when I went to update the Graphic Card is when my issue began, which was a message screen popped up stating an error occurred and the system needs to restart. Upon restart, I now have a blank white screen. So, apparently the graphic card update (likely before a windows compatible driver update occurred) is causing my issue and I can't F8. Tried...and got blue windows logo, but then white. I did not activate it via settings so....

 

Please advise

 

Thanks

Another reason for Low Disk Space on Recovery D: warning?

$
0

After reading through numerous threads on this problem, I have yet to find the reason I suspect my client is receiving this warning message and I need to see if there is a way to increase the size of the Recovery partition. I doubt it needs to be increased by much, but it definitely needs a little breathing room.

 

First, I'll let you know that I checked to make sure restore points weren't being amassed there and filling up all available extra space.

 

The space allocated for Recovery Drive D: was perfectly adequate, as long as the computer was running Windows 8.1. Once the machine was upgraded to Windows 10 (and subsequent 10 upgrades), that space was no longer enough. Now, when Windows Update tries to install regularly issued updates, it cannot complete the process because 'there is not enough space on the Recovery Drive'. 

 

The space allocated for the Recovery Drive on this machine is 27.3GB. There is only 1.96MB of space left. I'd like to increase the size of the Recovery Drive by only 1or 2GB. Is that possible?

 

And, what type of regularly issued update would add anything to the Recovery Drive? 

 

(I also noticed other posters reporting a similar scenario, with this happening after upgrading from one OS to another, but no one addressed that as being a possible reason.)

 

Thanks, in advance, for any help you can offer!

 

The machine is an HP notebook 15-ac055nr; product # NON 84UA#ABA

C: has 436GB available space to draw from.

 

 

Series of Beeps

Hi,

 

I am looking to buy this secnd hand but upon trying to inspect it, I have a problem.

When I switch on I am getting a series of beeps. They follow the sequence of 3 low type beeps followed by 4 high beeps. The sequence runs 5 times and then the Computer starts up but shows a Keyboard error, then the Windows 10 home screen.

 

The Touchscreen is unresponsive.

 

I have looked on the HP Support site and tried to follow the troubleshooting. When I look it appears, I thnk to be a Hardware problem . However  the troubleshooting section does not say that the Computer starts up, in their particular scenario, this does.

 

Should I avoid it or is it worth tring to fix?

 

Would appreciate your thoughts.

Dead Computer/Is it worth it?

$

I just use this strictly to play games off line. Unit won;t turn on and all I get is a pulsing green light in the back. I removed the power supply and tested it and it appears to be good.  I did the simple tries, like disconnecting the power plug and holding the on/off switch in 10 secs and also the voltage selection swith back and forth a couple of times. Then I jumped the green and black wires on the connector that goes to the mothere board from the power supply (out of the unit) and the fan went on and the green light went on steady. Although it appears there might be something in the plug receptacle that is going bad, since the green light went off and when I jiggled the plug it went back on. So, I put everything back together, plugged it in and I'm back to the blinking green light and thinking about that plug receptacle malfunctioning I tried to jiggel and it didn't do any good. Leads me to believe that there is something bad beyond the power supply. Any suggestions? Thanks

Windows 10 1607 anniversary upgrade fails, unable update Reserved partition

Upgraded my HP Pavilion 500 PC from Windows 7 to Windows 10 without a problem and have been running updates without issues.

 

Now trying to run 1607 anniversary update keep getting "Unable to update reserved partition".  Whe I check using "diskmgmt.msc", check properties, right click on Disk 0, I see 100 MB and 100% free.

 

I would have thought there would be a better solution than to go to a web site that wished to sell you software and provide a complex set of instructions.

 

Any ideas??

Problem = Not Recovery Manager Installed from factory

What I Need = A clean install in an new faster drive (or in the same drive if that matter)

 

About the computer

Atempts

   "clean install"

Upgraded from VISTA to Win8 and then Win10 last year.  Everything ok...almost...USB controller driver not recognized and a default one is being used but is not reading/controlling USB.  I get the bing when plugging and unplugging USB but nothing else...no action.

 

WHen I look at the driver list, it shows the USB driver as unknown...does anyone have a valid driver for the USB Controller?
