SOURCE: Black screen when the hp dv7 stratup

Contact HP. There are known issues with the DV line of laptops. They die......seriously. Ask them if the problem qualifies your laptop for a "one time warranty enhancement". They might just fix it free as there are known problems with the DV series.

Hope this helps! Post a comment if not and I'll see if I can help.

You most likely have a short in the AC adapter and I would replace it right away. I have had my dv 7 for a little over a year and had to replace mine 3 times so far.

How do you Connect asus laptop to portable hotspot

On the right hand side of the taskbar you should see what appears to be an icon like signal bars on a mobile phone. Clicking on this will open a box with available hotspots or access points. Click the one you wish to join and then click connect. After an interrogation of the hotspot it will either connect automatically if there is no security required or a dialogue box will appear asking for the password or network key. This is case sensitive so enter it exactly as it appears on the hotspots sticker or as supplied by the hotspot owner. If you enter the correct key it will then connect and you will have access to all the features provided by that hotspot. Most hotspots and personal access point devices also have a button that you can press to initiate a connection without knowing the password.

How do i re-attach the up arrow key on my hp pavilion dv7-6143cl? It has come loose but all of the parts are still intact.

Hello thf you look closely at the place where the key fits examine it and look to see if there are any broken tabs if not the key should simply press back in it does take some pressure and you should feel a snap when it is locked in place
Now if it does not then the key itself may be faulty which means you can get a another key from a old key board or just replace the keyboard itself they really are not too expensive ok
Hop this helps

I want to reset the password on my US Cellular wi-fi hotspot device.

Hi,

You can refer :
http://www.uscellular.com/uscellular/pdf/schlc11-user-manual.pdf

Or
To change the network key (password), open a web browser and type this address: http://mifi.admin/ in the url search bar. This is your mobile hotspot's admin page. If you see a "Welcome"-screen on this page with a "Login password" field, click cancel at the bottom of the page and then "Ok" to cancel the setup wizard. Log in by entering "admin" in the box in the top-right corner and clicking "Login". Click on the "WiFi" link at the top of the screen, this will open the WiFi settings page. You can change the network name (SSID) and network key (password). Click apply to save any changes made. After saving the changes your mobile hotspot will reboot and you will need to select the new wireless network or enter your new network password in order to connect to the mobile hotspot.

Thanks

Hp dv7 4065dx - power is reaching the computer (can tell by the led at the power outlet, but zero response to pressing the power button. Suggestions?

POWER SUPPLY & BATTERY PROBLEM
If the laptop battery is more than 3 - 4 years old then the battery could be worn out. Rechargeable batteries have a finite number of charge and discharge cycles and will lose their charge capacity over time, i.e. won't charge to 100% and gradually the charge reduces until the battery won't charge up at all. OR The battery shows a 100% charge but when the adapter is disconnected the battery drops off to zero capacity in a very short time. If the battery drops to an unacceptable charge level then the battery needs to be replaced. When you connect the power adapter into the laptop, does the power LED light up? If not then - The battery adapter or the adapter's power lead or the laptop's power socket could be faulty. Check power adapter's DC plug that connects into the laptop power socket with a multi-meter, the voltage should be slightly higher than the voltage that is printed on the label on the bottom of the adapter. If the voltage is zero or way below the voltage that is printed on the label then the power adapter is faulty and needs to be replaced. If the adapter is OK then connect it to the laptop and power it up, then look at the power/battery charging LED light and wriggle the power plug in the laptop's power socket. If the power/battery LED light flashes and in a certain position this LED light stays firm, then the power socket is either faulty or it has a dry solder joint where it is connected to the motherboard. This can be repaired but it requires the laptop to be completely dismantled to get at this power socket and repair. If you cannot DIY then I suggest you get a quote first.

Try seeing if there is a terms and agreement policy you have to agree to. Typically most hotspots have it open up on your device if you go on the internet with your device.
