HP 15-AY052NR Recovery failing

$

0

Have this laptop in my possession to swap a failed HDD. Ordered and received the recovery media from HP. The recovery is repeatedly failing around the same place. I've done the following to try to remedy this with no luck: 

 

Reset the BIOS

Set the correct date & time

Cleared TPM

Reset Security options

Ran full diagnostics

 

Next step for me is to boot up UBCD and run a memtest on the unit. Even after this, it keeps failing. It's failing on some Unknown ACPI device. Is it possible that HP may have boogered the recovery?

Hi:

 

Unfortunately, I can't help you with why the HP recovery media isn't working, but here is an alternative way to install W10...

 

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 work with the product key in the 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 the PC's support page.

This was what I was afraid I'd end up having to do, was saving this as a last resort. Thanks though!

I believe so.

My suggestion is to use a freeware recover the Windows 8.1 key.

Then you can install Windows 10 and activate it using that key.

I think it's Windows Log-In.  I have two accounts set up, one is for me personally, the other is Administrator.  I really thought I knew it.  I have an autoimmune disease, and one of the outfalls is brain fog... Not so good with memory and apparently did not write it down.  I also need to regress from Windows 10 to previous version.  Help?

Re: Can a recovery drive reinstall Windows?

On the Support page HP includes drivers for all Chipsets in various models of this series. Only download the ones which apply to your laptop without regard to latest date.

SwSetup should contain all of the original software/driver installers. It will also include any SP files you download and install from your Support page. For instance you would see a folder titled SP88834 if you downloaded and installed latest HP Wireless Button Driver. I have a lot of those because I have updated all of my drivers from the Support page.

The original drivers would be a safety net in case internet isn't working after a Reset/Reinstall but Windows 10 should actually have most of the basic drivers to get hardware working. 

Since you have tested out deleting partitions and running the Recovery drive i think it is safe to assume it would work on a new blank drive.

Don't retrieve the Windows key from BIOS...it is for the original Windows 8 which has been converted to a Windows 10 key during the upgrade. Your key is stored on Microsoft servers along with the hardware id of your laptop. During clean install when it asks for license key just choose "I don't have a key". It will install and activate once you connect to internet.

Yes, I would delete all partitions leaving only one large unallocated space. The installer will create any it needs. (10 is the old Windows 8 Recovery partition)

Drivers for PCI Simple communications controller, SM Bus controller and 2 Unknown Device

First of all I'm an Asian and my English ain't that good. So, if you found some gramatical error in this post then, I apologize. 

 

So here's my problem, there are missing Drivers for my HP PRobook 4540s, I've already checked the driver page for this laptop. But I don't know which are the correct and compatible software for these components:

 

PCI Simple communications controller:

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E3A&SUBSYS_17F6103C&REV_04
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E3A&SUBSYS_17F6103C
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E3A&CC_078000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E3A&CC_0780

 

SM Bus controller:

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E22&SUBSYS_17F6103C&REV_04
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E22&SUBSYS_17F6103C
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E22&CC_0C0500
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E22&CC_0C05

 

Unknown Device:

ACPI\HPQ6000
*HPQ6000

 

Unknown Device:

USB\VID_138A&PID_003D&REV_0104
USB\VID_138A&PID_003D

 

There are many softwares/drivers in HP Probook 4540s page. And to be honest I'm quite confuse which ones are the correct softwares for my laptop. Here are my PC specs:

 

Intel Core i3 3110m 2.4Ghz

Intel HD Graphics 4000

4GB DDR3 1600mhz RAM

250GB HDD

Windows 7 Ultimate

 

And also, I've installed Intel USB 3.0 eXtensive host controller, Intel ProSet Wireless and Jmicron SD Card reader, and they seem working fine with no problems whatsoever. As seen in the photo below.15oas8m

 

 

 

But I still have a feeling that I've installed an incompatible softwares since the HP Probook driver page has a lot of softwares/drivers to choose from. And even if I install all of them in my laptop it would work - maybe. But what I'm looking for are the correct drivers for my laptop. Hope you guys help me.

 

Thanks in Advance.

Rei

That is unknown because the original author of an issue forgets to come back  and tell us how it went.

 

This is something that happens fairly frequently.
