Stylus compatibility for spectre x360

0
0

Dear HP support / community

I entered university a while ago and for several reasons, purchased a HP spectre x360 13-4290nz. Possibly the most important one being able to take notes digitally (typing would lessen the learning effect). Therefore I am very dependent on stylus support.

Now, I wasn't able to find evidence which confirms that pens will not work with my model (except for my experiences of course). I have tried various styli (like the active pen for Windows surface or the Dell active Pen, which works fine with other spectre models (as stated in some forums). The PC Tablet Settings show a "Limited Touch Support" for this convertible and according to the HP assistant, my PC is fully updated.

The piece that is missing here - as far as I was able to understand the conversations in several forums / threads - is the firmware, which recognizes pens. Some days ago (I think around Nov. 26, 2016), I saw that some other models of the newest HP series got a firmware update on their support page and some users wrote, that this fixed the problem and they were able to use the pen from this point out. I have checked the support page for my model and wasn't able to find a firmware update or something in this direction at all (http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Spectre-13-4200-x360-Convertible-PC/10862116/model/11905973).

Now my main questions would be if the firmware is indeed the problem and if there will be a update that will enable sytlus support in the future or if there are some other ways to get compatibility. Furthermore I considered doing some research on using the firmware of another model (as similar as possible), even though it will most certainly not work.

Thank you very much in advance for the help.

hdmi connectivity

Hi, I am interested in finding out more about connectivity to my notebook computer using the hdmi interface.  I have just started using hd technology to improve the standard of video and sound output from legacy devices, vhs, dvd etc.  Ideally would like to use the hdmi port for both input and output to connect to devices so content and sound can be displayed by the notebook.  Is there a converter hub I can use attached to the hdmi port for this purpose.  Looking for the computer to control the input it receives so it can be edited and improved using hdmi technology.  Already have a scart to hdmi converter which works brilliantly for any legacy devices connected to my hd 1080 television now want the same connectivity for my laptop.  Looking forward to answers as to how this can be achieved using the existing hdmi port on my laptop which currently I believe only has output capability rather than input and output.  Spent ages searching for the answer to this but cannot find it anywhere.

Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 'x' stopped responding

0
0

Hi,

 

I am using a HP Pavilion Notebook 17-f001nl (ENERGY STAR) -  Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4510U CPU @ 2.00GHz - Intel(R) HD Graphics Family (driver version 10.18.10.3496) and NVIDIA GeForce 840M (driver version 376.09).

 

Since August 2016 I have been experiencing the 'Display Driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, version ... stopped working and has been restored' error everytime I start a game from the Steam library. This is often followed by a blue screen and my laptop restarting. The blue screen errors are often associated with 'kernel mode errors' and 'video tdr failure'.

I managed to send my laptop to the HP support centre in August, when it was still covered by the warranty. The laptop came back with a new NVIDIA GeForce 840M, but the problems persisted.

 

I have tried pretty much every solution that I managed to find online, without any real success, including:

 

-Clean install almost every NVIDIA driver available for my graphic card and my OS

-update the driver of the Intel HD Graphics card

-install or hide the NVIDIA graphic adapter WDDM

-overclock/underclock

-something regarding increasing the time that the graphic card 'waits' for a program to respond, changing it from 2 seconds to 8 seconds I think (cannot recall what the exact process was now)

-changing the settings on the NVIDIA Control Panel (e.g. forcing programs to be run by the NVIDIA card, changing the setting of individual games to be run at maximal performance, etc.)

-changing settings through Steam (e.g. running the game as the administrator, etc.)

-any combination of the above

 

Please help. This is becoming extremely frustrating. Using a software analysis tool I managed to confirm that whenever I start a game, the NVIDIA card stops working and 'shuts down'. This does not happen if I force the game to be run by the Intel card, obviously compromising performance. 

Any advice/suggestion would be very much appreciated!

 

Thank you!

Youcam6_webcam_camera_video.exe has stopped working window??????

Hi Guys,

 

Everytime I start my laptop up, a window comes up once I have logged in saying "Youcam6_webcam_camera_video.exe has stopped working". Now I haven't used this program before so unsure what it is, it is a window that I just close everytime I turn my laptop on, however is it starting to annoy me and has me wondering how to fix it.

 

It has got to the stage where I turn on my laptop and wait for it to come up before I do anything else. 

 

I need to get it sorted!

 

Please give me any form of help as I think I have tried everything and nothing seems to work!

 

Cheers,

 

Jake

Can the HP Spectre X360 7th Gen i7 LATE 2016 Support a 4K External Monitor/HDTV at 60 HZ?

 

If so, exactly what Cable or Adapter & Cabe is required?

 

Is there an HDMI (not Display Port) based solution for HDTV's?

 

Thanks in advance.

Replacement Glass 15-w100na

I am trying to locate replace glass for this laptop, with no luck.

 

Anybody know where I could get a new screen. The touch feature seems to work but can be inaccurate (i think this may be due to the crack down the screen). I think it is just the outer glass that needs replaced.

 

Many thanks

EliteBook 745 G3 and HP 2013 Ultraslim docking station displayport disabled when connected to a KVM

0

I have an HP EliteBook 745 G3 with Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit. I have a Viewsonic VP2770-LED monitor. I have my personal PC and the ELiteBook attached to a VellBox 2 port DispalyPort KVM switch. When the EliteBook is booted with it selected on the KVM it boots and works fine.

 

However, if I subsequently switch the monitor to my home PC and then switch back to the EliteBook, the USB keyboard and mouse swithc OK but the monitor does not. If I use Fn F4 to switch to an external monitor it does not work. If I restart the ELiteBook it does not detect the external monitor and Fn F4 will not switch  either. If I power the EliteBook off and then back on again, every time it detects the external monitor and switches to that. 

 

I have also tried this with a StarTech 2 port USB DisplayPort KVM switch and I have the same issue. Whenever I switch to my desktop PC it works everytime, so the issue lies either in the doscking station or the EliteBook

 

I have have updated the HP Ultraslim Docking Station DisplayPort firmware, the AMD Graphics Driver and the ViewSonic driver to the latest versions but I still have the same issue.

 

Has anyone else seen this issue or doies anyone know of a solution?

 

Keith.

 

 

No picture on monitor, external monitor works but with generic VGA driver

0

Hi,

 

few days ago screen on my notebook Probook 6560b  with discreete GPU 6470M went black.  Monitor does not have any backlight and also there is no picture on it (looking at angle...so it is not faulty backlight). Pulled all devices out (HDD, CD-ROM) but monitor still remains blank (no BIOS screen). On external output (VGA or DP) there is pictrure, but it can not load any Windows (I have dualboot Windows 10 and WindowsXP). In Windows 10 shows error: VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE What failed: atikmpag.sys. In Windows XP, also blue screen with error in atikmpag.sys. So, I booted in SafeMode and remove Radeon HR6470M driver and put Standard VGA driver. Now PC boots to OS, but still only on external monitor. Tried to reinstall drivers, but it always fails with blank screen and PC freeze.

With some many tries and restarts, in one moment notebook monitor starts to working again. But only up to next Windows restart.

I tried to put new HDD in it and install fresh Windows...but same thing. Booted from live linux distro...only external monitor works.

 

So, as I can see, external monitors on VGA or DP can work but only with generic VGA drivers. OS correctly recognize graphic card, but when driver is installed external monitor also goes blank and windows freezes (not responding on caps/num lock, no longer pingable on network).

As in one moment internal monitor went back online it seams that maybe is some bad connections...but where...GPU or video memory?

 

Also tried HP diagnostics...video pallete is OK but video memory test fails.

 

Does anyone have clue what could be a problem and how to solve it?

 

Thanks,

S.

 

 


compatibility of my HP with ultrawide external monitor

Hallo,

I own HP ZBook 15 and just bought an external monitor LG 25UM57-P which is ultrawide (21:9). My notebook doesn't have a HDMI output and monitor has only HDMI, so I connect it by cable DisplayPort-HDMI. Unfortunately I can't swich to 21:9 resolution, I have checked all the settings but nothing. Otherwise it work in 16:9 mode 
I have tried with another notebook (Lenovo), with the same cable and it worked imediatelly, just after pluging.

Could you please help me?

I do expect that this high performance workstation shouldn't have difficulty to run with ultrawide monitor.

 

Thanks

Veronica

Touchscreen Styluses

I wish to by a software for digital artwork (namely Clip Studio Paint), for which it would obviously be best to use the touchscreen for my illustrations.

 

I have the Pavilion 11-n084sa x360, and I realise that the typical rubber-ended touchscreen pens aren't detected by the screen. I have already asked in a forum of the drawing software if an electronic stylus that may be compatible with my computer is included in their package. Now here, I'd like to ask if there are any fine-tipped styluses compatible with my laptop at all and where i could buy them. I can't do much without one, so please help!

 

Thanks in advance!

HDMI Display Not Working

I have an HP Envy 15 with windows 10 64-bit installed. I've had the computer for a little over a year, and a month ago the HDMI output stopped working. When I plug in an HDMI cord there are no additional monitors deceted. I've tried downloading new drivers, but the issue still persists.

 

If anyone has experienced similar issues and got them to resolution, I would greatly appreciate a brief explanation of how you fixed the issue.

 

Thanks.
