Hi Y'all!

 

My HP ENVY dv6-7246us stated ticking... and like the tell tail heart.. the hard drive said nevermore!

 

I have spent the last half an hour digging around the support pages for a link to buy new media to go on the new SSD hard drive (another never more to spinning disc's) just dead ending. 

 

Windows 8, I belive 64 bit.

Just bought

 

Model HP Spectre x360 13-w0XX
SKU X7v20UA#ABA
Processor i7-7500

 

current : bios American Megatrend f.04,9/26/2016


HP Support Assistance - List six updates...installed 5 of the 6 updates...Pending the Final update being its a BIOS update

 

No details are given as to the bendfits of grading the BIOS ?


Searched HP support can not find any details on : softpaq number: SP78452 ?
Searched HP support can not find any details on : Version to F.11Ap1 ?

 

Find it strange when searching HP, HP does not have any details on SP78452 or F.11Ap1...
Should I update the BIOS ?  if so why ?
What are the benefits of updating the BIOS ?

Hello  DV8JAY,

 

Welcome to Forum !!

 

You need to know three things about HP Recovery Media:

1) It is NOT downloadable, you have to order the physical media

2) It is not free, you have to pay for it

3) It will erase the ENTIRE contents of your drive

 

Order from the below link :

http://support.hp.com/us-en/mediaorder/HP-ENVY-dv6-Notebook-PC-series/5296055/model/5316928/softwareitem/709673-001/step1

 

 

If HP no longer provides Recovery Media for your model, a couple of other sites you should check are: http://www.computersurgeons.com/ and http://www.restoredisks.com/

Excessive use of hard drive

$

I have recently purchased a new HP Stream 11 with a 32gb hard drive. The long and short of my question is I was trying to fix my PC from my notebook and put Windows OS on a jump drive. I was using windows media creation tool and it said I need 8gb of space on my hard drive. I looked and there was only about 6gb of space left on my hard drive. Of the 32gb, 5gb is used for windows and I have a capacity of 27gb but 22gb are already used. I haven't installed anything on this notebook other then Chrome broswer and download this one file. How can 2/3 of the hard drive space already be taken. My windows file says it's 17.5gb and uses 11.2gb on the disk. I need to free this up because this seems like a big waste. Any helpful tips would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

HI.

 

You should do the installation, from a USB and add this driver, once you request the drivers from a USB look for it in theory should look automatically, whenever you look at the correct route, the error is due to a lack of controller chipset Or also by an image from an unofficial source, even from an evil version ultimate copy.

Can anyone tell me what "Intel(R) 9 Series Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller does?  I am having a problem with my sound controls and when I ran Driver Toolkit it said i need to install/update this along with Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller, along with some others for System devices.  Would this impact my sound controls?  The other system devices were Mobile 5th GenerationPCI express root port 1 thru 5 and the management engine interface.  Should I download them from thi site?  Is it safe?

Thanks for the support.
