Re: Mother board for a HP Spectre x360 - 13-4165nr (ENERGY STAR)

That really didn't answer my question.  Shouldn't the mother board last longer the 2 1/2 years and should I throw away the whole computer like the repairman told me or is there value in the computer?  How much should a new mother board cost?

As I stated earlier, I think the only way to get past the problem is a clean install from the Windows 10 tool.  You can replace the hard drive and clean install, if you are reluctant to do it with the present hard drive in place.  That way there is a "fall back" posotion.

Are you able to boot to BIOS? 

 

Here is how you can boot to BIOS.

 

- Turn off the computer.

- Turn on the computer and keep tapping the F10 key to boot to BIOS.

 

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!

Tried every suggestion offered - quite a few times actually. Nothing works. I tried downloading Windows 10 to a USB drive. Download went okay. Creating it was another matter. Each time I tried it, it gave me an error at 50% each time. I would love to be able to even access Automatic Recovery to try some of the suggestions offered, but I can’t even do that. So as it stands now, I have a big black paperweight. This is obviously an error with HP considering how many people are having the same issue, but apparently we have to pay out of our own pocket for a Restore disc, which may or may not work. I have never had a problem like this with an HP product before. I am **bleep** sure not sending them more of my money to may/may not solve their problem.

hello. hhd broke on my laptop. I'm going to replace the drive with an SSD. But my operating system key is sewn into a laptop. I wanted to download the ISO of Windows 7 from the Microsoft website, but they write that I should contact HP. How can I recover my license and transfer windows to SSD? I do not have ISO Windows 7.

Hi:

 

You should be able to reinstall W8.1 like this...

 

You can make your own W8.1 installation media and clean install W8.1 as follows...

 

Install W8.1 by creating the Microsoft installation media, using another Windows PC, if yours is not working...You want W8.1 64 bit

 

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows8ISO

 

Only if you are asked to enter a product key during the installation process, use this generic key.

 

This is the generic key for W8.1 'standard.'

 

 334NH-RXG76-64THK-C7CKG-D3VPT

 

If you had to enter the generic key, manually change the generic W8.1 product key to the W8 'standard' key in your PC's BIOS in the PC settings menu.

 

After you get W8.1 installed, and you had to manually enter the generic product key, you will need to run the free utility I zipped up and attached below, that will show you show the W8 product key in your PC's BIOS.

 

I have also zipped up and attached below, the Microsoft tool which hopefully will transfer the ISO file to a DVD or usb flash drive so it is bootable.

 

Then you can install the available drivers and software from your PC's support page.

Hi:

 

You can reinstall W10 for free as follows...

 

To reinstall W10...Use the Media Creation Tool.  Make the 64 bit installation media.

 

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

 

You can make a W10 USB flash drive installer using an 8 GB flash drive using another Windows PC, since your PC is not working.

 

W10 will find the product key in your notebook's BIOS, install and automatically activate once you are connected to the internet.

 

Here are the steps to create the W10 USB flash drive installer...

 

  1. Select Download tool now, and select Run.
  2. If you agree to the license terms, select Accept.
  3. On the What do you want to do? page, select Create installation media for another PC, and then select Next.
  4. Select the language, edition, and architecture (64-bit or 32-bit) for Windows 10. You want 64 bit.

  5. Select which media you want to use:
  6. USB flash drive.  Plug in a blank USB flash drive with at least 8GB of space. Any content on the flash drive will be deleted.

Then you can install the drivers and available software from your notebook's support page.

Welcome to the HP Forums :) I would like to take a moment and thank you for using this forum, it is a great place to find answers. For you to have the best experience on the HP forum, you could also visit our HP Forums Guide for First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More. I see from your post that you are having issues with the start menu not working on your HP notebook. Don't worry we'll work together to help you find a solution.

 

To provide you with an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:

What is the product number of your notebook? Use this link to find it:  https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c03754824 (Ensure you do not share any of your personal information such as serial, phone number, email ID, etc...).

Have you tried to perform a system restore to a previous date where it was all working fine?

Did you try to run sfc scannow?

 

In the meantime, let's try these steps here: 

 

As you have mentioned in your post that you are having issues after the recent update, I would suggest here is to perform a system restore to a previous date where it was all working fine. 

For more details, please follow this link: HP PCs - Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 10, 8)

 

1] Download and run the Windows 10 Start Menu Troubleshooter from Microsoft.

 

2] Run the following command in an elevated command prompt, to run the System File Checker.

 

In Windows, search for Command Prompt. In the search results, right-click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator. Then click Yes.

In Command Prompt, type sfc /scannow. Make sure to include the space between sfc and the /.

Press Enter and wait while System File Checker scans for corrupted files.

When scanning is complete, the results are displayed on the screen.

If the file checker found and replaced any corrupted files, restart the computer and check the performance.

If the file checker did not find any corrupted files or found corrupted files but could not replace them, go to the next step.

If System File Checker finds corrupted files but cannot replace them, use the Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) tool. DISM checks the corrupted files; then downloads and replaces the files using Windows Update.

In Windows, open a web browser.

   NOTE:

You need to be connected to the Internet to use DISM.

In Windows, search for Command Prompt. In the search results, right-click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator. Then click Yes.

In Command Prompt, type dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth. Make sure to include the space before each / in the command line.

Press Enter and wait while DISM works. This might take several minutes.

If DISM finds corrupted files, it replaces them using Windows Update. If this occurs, after DISM is finished, restart your computer and see if the performance has improved.

 

Please let me know if this resolves the issue, or if you require further assistance!

Eagerly waiting for your response!

that said, If the information I've provided was helpful, 

give us some reinforcement by clicking the solution and kudos buttons, 

that'll help us and others see that we've got the answers!

Good Luck.

Hi:

 

If you can't repair or reset your PC, the only suggestion I can offer would be to try clean installing W10.

 

Use the Media Creation Tool.  Make the 64 bit installation media.

 

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

 

You can make a W10 USB flash drive installer using an 8 GB flash drive using another Windows PC, since your PC is not working.

  4. Select the language, edition, and architecture (64-bit or 32-bit) for Windows 10. You want 64 bit.

  5. Select which media you want to use:
  6. USB flash drive.  Plug in a blank USB flash drive with at least 8GB of space. Any content on the flash drive will be deleted.

Then you can install the drivers and available software from your PC's support page.
