I bought a new laptop HP dv7-1020us, I uninstalled some few trial

programs, the anti-virus, etc, I installed Avast free, codec pack, all

the stuff I usually use, but everytime mi laptop freezes, I can't shut

down, I can't empty my recycle bin, it's strange normal use but it's

hangs on everytime, not responding progrmas, or folders. I don't konw,

I'm using most x64 compatilbe programs but maybe Avast is working wrong,

a friend of mine bught the same laptop and with the same configuration.

Everytime the systems crash or hangs on.

Recover the PC back to Factory settings

Dont install anything!

Test your PC, if its now OK its what you are installing that is causing the

problems

Run the HP recovery to erase the drive and put it back to factory condition

and test without uninstalling or installing anything, if the problem remains

contact HP support and put your warranty to use, if it doesn't, something

you are doing is causing the issue.

evreything was ok, I read something about usb problems and yesterday

when my pendrive was copying files a programs stop responding so, maybe

there is another problem.

Similar to the initial thread, I recently purchased a DV7-1070 with

Vista HP SP1 64x installed. About 2-weeks ago the laptop started

shutdown very slowly. It would take 10 to 15 minutes. Last week, the

symptoms became worse:

1. Shutdowns would not complete and require power off

2. Boot-ups would take longer and sometimes result in black screen

3. Messages that "Explorer.exe is not responding" forcing a hard

shutdown

4. Significant slowdown and periodic "not responding" in MS Office

2007 applications

 

I read the posts and tried a few things that seem to have helped.

Specifically I ran SFC /scannow followed by chkdsk.

 

I was discouraged by the SFC result, since it indicated errors were

found that could not be repaired. After the chkdsk completed, I did a

second re-run of SFC and encountered the same message. However, all the

symptoms that were previously causing concern for system stability are

gone. The system boots up fast (with no recent black screens) and

shutdown is immediate. I've also not had any issues with unresponsive

applications.

 

I will also add that I downloaded and tried to re-apply Vista SP1 --

but I was unable to find a command switch to force the install and SP1

was already detected.

 

I'll keep my fingers crossed that SP2 arrives soon and all of these

issues (that may be part of a faulty base image) are resolved.

To whom are you speaking? No one knows to whom you are giving this

information since you are not posting on a real forum as you think you are

and you didn't quote any of the thread to which you are replying. You are

using a web interface that leeches Usenet posts and most of the rest of us

are using real newsreaders. We don't see what you do. If you want to

participate in Usenet, the better way is to set up a newsreader. This is

very easy to do and I'll give you information about that below. If you

prefer to use a forum, then here are two excellent ones:

 

http://forum.aumha.org/index.php

http://http://computerhaven.info/

 

Since you are using a web interface, you may not realize that this is really

a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you learn to use

a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows, but you can use

Outlook Express (XP) or Windows Mail (Vista) since you already have it.

Here are some links to information about newsgroups:
