Thank you for joining the HP Community

 

Could you please help me with the exact model name or the product number and the operating system of the computer?

 

Did you try with alternate keyboard and check if it works?

 

 

Keep me posted.

 

Have a great day!

Cheers:)

excellent fix when I found the files in file explorer. the Browse for driver window was difficult to navigate but a piece of cake after extraction. Graphics in my games seem smoother in play. Maybe my AMD E-6010 R2 graphics processer will benefit from this AMD system driver. uninstalled BT driver and found old Nero programs and MacAfee stuff that was hiding out. Hard to find all software parts to uninstall all programs. thanks for the fix. this HP community site is easy compared to Microsoft community site. i'll use this site soon.

You're very welcome.

 

If the graphics is working better/smoother, that device must be part of the graphics subsystem.

Sometimes unofficial processor upgrades work and sometimes they do not. Glad this one worked for you. 

Re: External USB Hub blew my motherboard in HP Spectra laptop??

There was a warning which you ignored then you smelled burning and you have to ask whether it could have blown the motherboard? Can you tell us exactly which Apple product you plugged in? Was it powering the laptop as well as acting as a hub? HP does make powered USB-C and thunderbolt port replicators with power delivery and we can likely find you something you can use. Identifying the exact model of the laptop would also be helpful.

Re: Disable wired and wireless adapters in BIOS

Upgrade RAM

 I have just bought this computer, which has 8gb of Ram and would like to add 8 more.

There are two modules of 4gb and I would to change to 2 of 8gb, 16gb being the max

Where can I get this done as HP seems not to have any facility to do this as far as I can see.?

I am in the UK. The PDF says that there are no user serviceable parts but it seems easy  enough to do, but I don't want to null the warranty just yet.

The memory modules are Memory module,

8 GB
862398-855.

As I say i cannot find anywhere on the HP UK site how to go about this and just go round in circles.

Here is the Service Manual:

 

Manual

 

Start on p. 31 for instructions to open the laptop and inside there is this:

 

15ck.jpgSSD slot in purple oval

 

The slot in the purple oval can accept a PCIe/NVME M.2 SSD aka a "gumstick" type SSD which can be used in addition to the generous 2 TB 5400 rpm mechanical hard drive already installed. There is no capacity limit for the M.2 SSD. 

 

2 TBs are available but pricey:

Smaller versions are available of course for much less. Post back with any more questions and please accept as solution if this is the info you needed. 

HP Notebook - 14-df0023cl - GPS does not work offline

=== HP Notebook - 14-df0023cl / Windows 10 ===

The manual states: Your computer may be equipped with a Global Positioning System (GPS) device . . .

Does my 14-df0023cl have GPS hardware installed?

If yes, why it is working *only* when the PC is online and does not offline?

The Location settings is ON.

Just ignore it. I even get a call last week from people from National network who told me: they need to fix my line (including disable my old analog phone) and they wanted to fix from my computer remotely.

 

I told them to fix at their end, not from my computer.

 

Regards.

We use them at school and have a cart full of them and many of these laptops have the same problem, a swelling keyboard section. They still work but for how much longer...
