Sounds like your boot files or system files has either a corrupt file or missing file.You will need a repair disk or system disk to remedy this. Put the disk in the cd drive and boot from it. You wan to get to a dos prompt (black screen with white lettering) and run the Check Disk utility. To run the check disk utility you will need a repair disc ora operating system disc. Put the disc in the cd drive and boot fromit. You want to get to the Dos Command Prompt (Black screen with whiteletters) and type the following command: chkdsk /rCheck disk will run well over an hour or two and you will notice thepercentages going from high to low, this is normal. Let it run tocompletion. Then reboot machine. If check disk fails to solve your problem you might have to reinstall windows.Try doing a Repair Install that way you don't loose your data, documents,music, pictures, videos or programs.In windows xp you get to the dos command prompt by selecting R for repair whenthe options appear.In Vista and Windows 7 you want to get to the recoveryconsole and look down at the bottom of the window for the Dos Command.

Hi Daniel

You can use the HP site to download the application which can access the web cam. Or you can use Camera and scanner wizard which is in Startmenu (in Win XP) you will get the camera working.

See my response to a similar question here: http://www.fixya.com/support/t9309853-porbolem

It's essentially the same answer for your question.

The only way to do it without the recovery disc is if you have the recovery console installed. You can check this by double clicking on "my computer" from the desktop and look at your drive assignments. On your first drive (drive 0) you should see C as the system partition. If on the same drive you have a partition labeled D Recovery then it is installed. To access the recovery partition restart your computer and press F11 as it starts up. This will take you into the recovery process. If you don't have the recovery option you will have to re-install it from an installation disk.

Hi,

Turn on the laptop. After the blue screen appears, press "F10" key repeatedly until the "Recovery Menu" appears. A progress indicator informs you of the time before the recovery process is to take place.

Click "Next" in the Recovery Menu. Decide whether you want to perform a nondestructive or destructive recovery. A "nondestructive recovery" does not format the laptop's hard drive or erase any personal files on your laptop. However, a "destructive recovery" formats your laptop's hard drive and erases any personal files you have on your laptop. This will remove all of your information on the laptop. So, make sure that you have done a backup so you will still have it.

Click "Yes" to execute a "Normal, nondestructive recovery." The restore process begins and your laptop restarts. Alternatively, to execute a destructive recovery, click "Advanced." Click "Yes" to start the "Destructive recovery." The restore process begins and your laptop restarts.

If your bank statement is not in the Quicken format, you cannot do that. Best see if it will download into MS Excel. If not, get in touch with the Bank

Try now~ Then you can reset your keyboard if you like

I think you have a broken USB keyboard or USB port. Simply plugging in the keyboard should be enough to make it work. First try the keyboard in a different USB port. Test the caps lock to see if the LED goes on and off. Also try a different keyboard and also test it in a different computer.

please use English, ok?

what computers.?? 1000's of models over 30 years. made F10 is BIOS screens, so if that works, BIOS. and any screen then the PC is not booting. try booting to CD? *(a free linux live cd?) as a test. if that works run HDD tests. next ill stop here, if you can get this far, we go to next step F11 HDD reload the OS, if PC is 2006 or newer from HP.

Try again with the model number

what is a device? did you mean PC, a collections of devices and chips:? a PC Is not a DEVICE it is a system.(or machine) why in the world not buy a new battery first? if charging fails. mine sometimes go bad even 1 year old, when I abuse it. and I fully expect that, if you read the battery makers pages, youd learn how that happens' (cycling the snarf out of it) if i remove the word DEVICE and add LAPTOP OR PC THE ANSWER IS THIS. IF the Pc does not run with the battery (main big) out ! the power pack is bad. the PC will run forever on AC power, a fact, !!! I do so all the time, or even the wrong AC pack used, (mixed up with other pc:) get a new pack, get one matching your systems, needs (watts) the laptops can come with 5 processor options and 4 graphic chip options, the worse mix is 100watts, HP will tell you that match. but only if YOU tell your full service tag data.... that magic, nnnnnnnABA# number tells the HP pro what is inside this laptop and what power park is right or just buy the 19v, 100watt pack. here is real HP, fixya is NOT. they can match you up as can the hp PARTS SURFER, https://h30434.www3.hp.com/

sure, get the Correct HP driver for this exact pc but, but but...The windows sounds are dead. (do that yet>, CP + sound test)CP = control paneltry to know , most HP made, dv6345us, can have 3 sound chips as an option day 1 new!what you have is clearly stated in the service tag that you did NOTpost, the number ending in ABA# is THAT number.the chip and PC and the unstated OS all must matchwindows what? you never said so i cant match that either.VISTA????????? vista 32 bit or 64????????but the other way is what, sure, guess.read the drivers at HP and try all there.for sound chips (aka audio)This HP computer is 11 years old. now. (2007)HP dropped most support on it this old, (SOP) one sound chip is Conexant AC -Link Audiolets say you said (service tag) RV214UA#ABAand you said VISTA> what works there.the secret is deep, lacking full spec, from HP.finding Conexant drivers is not easy, lots of hits all virus sites now.lets first look .does device manager show it as bad.CP+DM see sound there. is it red, yellow or Unknown marked.go to CP again control panelclick sound is the Conexant still there.the window for sound has a speaker is it selected?select speaker then properties lower right.then pick enhancementshit checkmark, disable all sound effectsclick tab levels, turn up volume.can you do all that, i bet not, its got bad drivers for this chipVISTA btw is dead so asking MS to update driver is dream of dreams, hopeless, now and for sure forward.you dont have the HP install disks so that source too is missing.,leaving you , VISTA and MS and HP and conexant in the lurch.if microsoft was not dead and your internet was alive (is it)the remove the driver, and reload, it under device manager.it then magically PnP reloads from MS but not if the MS driver servers are off line as they sure are. (1/2 or all) (ms secret this is)Hard this is,::::, 1ST OFF, is HP ended support,ON YOUR PC NOW.2nd VISTA support has ended at MS. (double dead)3rd factor (bad) IS Conexant maker of chip and their Driver. IS DEAD. TRIPLE DEAD.SHORT WHY>?synaptics Bought out Conexant in 2017, and shows no support NOW. FOR THAT. the Snaptics web site lists nothing on the words driver or conexant. zero support, but do call them,,,? SO that ends that foray. leaving all those malwares sites offering this driver, only. ? many we can find it this magical way. the FAMOUS DRIVER PACKS site. (all safe ask) the one place on earth with no malware is here.this is the vista set 32bit only 64 is on other pagethere are 15 drivers for Conexant. there. get them try them.end storyhttp://driverpacks.net/driverpacks/windows/7/x86/audio/11.11
