*HP HDX 9000 DRAGON Owners Lounge, Part 2*

SKI,

That is a hard question. I've never seen that sort of error in the HDX. You might need to install the official F40E BIOS before installing the modded F40E.

So install the original F40E and then the modded BIOS. There might be a missing component that the official F40E has.

I believe most of us who have used the modded F40E BIOS were already on the official F40E.

 

And that's what I meant. Unfortunately, I have installed still do not know which version of "SKI". Am I really so hard to understand?
Thank you 2.0!!!

 

What?

LOL

 

I said nothing.
I understand everything, no one here understands me.
This is sometimes to despair.
With my English, this is definitely related to nothing!
I brew a therapist?

 

I'm in the same boat as you 2.0 haha, what?

 

No worries, I understand you just fine. Well, mostly .

I speak English and mess that up too. At least a third of my post count is clarification of something I posted before.

 

OT - comical relief. Just so you know what was said, I'll translate.google.com it back to you in German:

 

Hello, and welcome; is it the original battery, do you have the HP test programs, what is your charge cycle plan? I know the battery zap procedure is in the previous thread somewhere maybe one of the Elders has it hot linked and will post it here for you otherwise search 'battery' in Lounge 1.

 

Brewed therapists, for whatever's Aleing you,

MA

 

When did you last defrag/run chkdsk?

 

Huh? Oh I getcha', maybe, kinda, sorta'; just some fun @ your expense - please pay the tab now.

 

Hey, if brewed therapist is any where near as good as stewed therapist I'll take two!

 

Ich brauen einen Therapeuten ? <-My fault, did I make a mistake.
It should look like:
Brauche ich einen Therapeuten ?
Do I need a therapist? <- Conclusion: I need one. :wub:

This was meant. Moreover, I read that page using Google translator.
Of course, even in the original. And write well. As far as I can I check is the translation. Then I replace words and when I think now you could understand it, then I post it.
Oh, and before I leave the text again translated into German.
Can you imagine how much work does it?
Here you can see my current day's work.And they understand this? Unclewebb determined again not.

EDIT:There have been very amused about this sentence:

The reason I know still do not.

 

Nein. Sie brauchen nicht kein therapeut. Sie brauchen ein "brew!" *

* Translated with help from my girlfriend.

MA

 

SIDES SPLIT AND OFFICIALLY ROLLIN' ON FLOOR!

 

Well, the word "brew" your girlfriend has probably given up!?
Or you had the choice of German words for it too large?
See the comparison of German / English



This is always my problem. How should I German, transfer in such a banal language like English? Since I have at the end of an English sentence more than 20 German words left.

Liebe Grüße an deine Freundin :wink:

 

ROTFLMAO!! There is some very strong innuendo in that phrase. lol

Think of the phrase this way and replace the sections below:

"your little program" = the drug ExtenZe

"CPU" = "Male Genitalia"

 

Obi Wan Berlin, teach me to be a German Jedi Master! Love you man, but you can't have my Bud Lite (not that you'd want our swill), or my girlfriend - but you can take my wife, please!

 

With the "CPU" was my thought. However, this is a novelty with the drug.
Thank CompTrekkie! Now, are the reactions to my post on this page entirely clear.
I hope, "unclewebb" can not get private mail now than he would like. His main area was so far "ThrottleStop.

 

Ok this is starting to get annoying.

So i go the main HP website and download the F.40 E

WinFlash for HP Notebook System BIOS (for Notebooks with Intel Processors) - Microsoft Windows Vista-Based HP Pavilion HDX9494NR Entertainment Notebook PC - HP Customer Care (United States - English)

Install it, reboot, then proceed to try the bios mod again, but same message. So then I go to my cpuz to check which bios is currently installed and it tells me that I have 68dvd Ver. F40, not the F.40 E, so now what do I do?

 

No we left it as the English "brew" rather than brauen because of the humorous idea of a brewed therapist.

MA

 

Funny. I also thought the grammar and syntax were very Kenobian as well, with perhaps a little of the rhythm of late Wookian.

Nevertheless, RikkiBerlin's technical wisdom is priceless, but I wouldn't describe English as banal. Otherwise shame on Shakespeare for using it.

MA

 

@S K I

Showing at everyone just "F.40"
So you have the latest BIOS already on your HDX.

 

If that's the case then I'm pretty much at a dead end at this point because I researched the hell out of this issue for the past 2 hours, and I've come up with zilch, guess this is a project which I'll have to trash for now :/.

 

@ S K I
Have I understood correctly. You have flashed original F.40 again?
Then flash the modded bios you wanted and then came the mistake?
What graphics card do you have in your HDX? Nvidia or ATI?

 

When you say "original" F.40, are you referring to version prior to the one I already have installed? And I'm using an Nvidia 8800m gts on an HDX9494nr.

 

@ S K I
Anyway, forget your questions, and forget the "E".
There is only one original F.40.
For two weeks there is now a modded version of the F.40.
All this is for you is not important.
Your conditions are optimal and the error will be found soon.
Please upload the modded bios again on the net!
Unzip it directly aud the desktop!
Make all files in the same folder!
Then run "update.exe" as a context menu Administrator!

Take all relevant precautions during bios update as always. (No screen saver, AC supply, etc)

 

I had already done everything which you said above Ricki before hand, and still same result, that is why I'm having such a difficult time trying to figure this out. Like I said, if this is an issue with the mod itself I can understand, because I'm hopeful nando will figure it out. However if it's not, I just want to make sure I've covered every end on my angle.

 

@ S K I
Sometimes it helps not to think for themselves!
Have you Modd.Bios download again?
Even when it comes time to download errors.
Sorry, you have no signature. It is therefore difficult to identify a cause for your problem. CPU, OS, 32 bit or 64, and
Maybe your computer is running Linux and we are looking for Completely restructured in the wrong direction!
(Linux only as an example)

 

Yea I appologize for that, however if I was using Linux or anything related that might cause this issue, I would of mentioned it earlier, but my specs are pretty much cookie cutter..... actually I should really start changing the way I type because my metaphors are probably confusing you further as well.

But regarding the modded bios issue, but yea I've downloaded it multiple times to rule out that issue, and a bunch of other things as well. But anyways, I appreciate your help up to this point anyways.

 

I love my WUXGA screen, used to see them for like $400-$600 on Ebay, yes, in the states, but haven't for a while now. Hope someone else can help you get one. They're really nice on the eyes. One of the things I love most about it.

EDIT: I guess they do still sell them! Wow only $250 too:

That would be awesome Something MobileArtist and I have tried looking into for a while now and seeing how it could happen.

 

Lol that was awesome. I also understand, most of the time

 

Lol oh man, this is getting as good as some of the Slickdeals.net forums with their shennanigans.

 

Lol. I'm sick/have a cold, this stuff is cheering me up. Thanks.

 

I had an error similar to this one, but mostly because I was running the other exe not the update. I also shut off my Kaspersky and any other software I could that runs in the background.

 

My HDX does not detect battery.

Thanks.

 

@Dominick 7
You come just at the right time.
Too bad that you now sleep where I write this.
Well then I'll hope you're awake when you read this.
This is exactly now. (Weird, right? We have different "now")

Enough of that, we have up to WSXGA + and WUXGA, "and HDD" the same hardware. However, you have "8GB 667MHz" and I "8GB 800 MHz RAM."
You had a x64 OS?
Thus, a comparison would be to my Values "WEI" and " wPrime V2.04" very interesting.
While "wPrime Bench 32M+1024M" and "WEI" investigation had me "ThrottleStop" is fixed at 2.7 GHz.
Do not forget wPrime Run as Admin!

Oh but please be so kind as to create two screenshot!

And please think of your own words!:

I will run wPrime one more time, maybe I still get "CompTrekkie values" magic. (See signature "CompTrekkie)

It's not about what "users is better," but "there are differences between 667 and 800MHz RAM.
Also welcome are the results of other users.
For benchmark comparisons, at least the same CPU to be present.The best even at 2.7GHz fixed. (If not I'll have to down clock times)

Thanks in advance!

 

Battery is likely dead. The one thing you can try is to take the battery out, unplug AC and then hold down the power button for 30 secs.

Plug everything back in, reinstall that battery, then power up and see if it recognizes the battery.

 

Get well soon. Especially for the holidays.

 

Just to add to that; run HP Battery Check and it will tell you that it's dead and you should get a replacement.

I'm curious why they die after a while, I've never used mine on battery, I always keep it plugged, but it still died.

 

Only to supplement the values for VistaHPx32:



Vista32 can expect better and faster but just as Win7x64.

Here again for a quick comparison Win7x64 values (or right here without WEI)------->
Both OS and dual boot. Same conditions.
But Vista 32 is "4GB RAM disk" and this is where the pagefile.sys. Whether this is the explanation I do not know. Of course, I had several runs of wPrime in both. Also, both systems are fully optimized. No further processes the Bench.
Does anyone have any idea?

 

Lol I work overnight so usually I may actually be up when you are but I got sick/caught a cold yesterday so I was sleeping thanks to Nyquil

Interesting.. So you're getting strictly 2.7 and are not rounding it from 2.6973 something or other number? I'll try to run at Admin. Oh wait I DID run it as Admin.. Hmm. Oddly I think I got the same number score though. Which ram are you using at 800mhz?

I have noticed a difference after rebooting, in regards to voltage which I think you brought up. Like it's better when I restart the software manually vs putting it in startup. Odd..

 

Thanks man lol I may actually be moving into the dairy department too of all places too. At least my Dragon can't catch any colds or viruses from me at least.

 

No worries. No one gets 2.7. It's just a nominal figure. It's always 2.69x. Just like 2.5ghz was always 2.49x.

 

Thank you very much for the reply, the battery has been used very little.


Thanks.

 

Just wanted to let you all know that I'm now the proud father of twins. Yes, I got a second Dragon today with almost the same spec as my original Beast.....

I got a bit sick of lugging the big ol' unit around the world every 6 weeks, so I'm going to leave one of them on my ship.

I've been monitoring quite a few of these for quite a long time and now I have just what I was after, in A1 condition, for a decent price too, £500 English Pounds, or $790 in foreign currency.

A nice little Christmas present to myself!

I don't like the language further down on the ad suggesting that although the screen is "fresh from the factory", and may be missing its original packaging, that it may be a compatible screen. I don't know of any 20.1 displays not made by CMO, but the language is not reassuring.

Another thing about Ebay is that there is a scam going on that allows people to artificially pump up their ratings. One approach apparently involves cabals of sellers who reinforce each other with positive ratings. Caveat emptor.

Youre the one that won it off ebay? Great price btw. Saw a scratched up HDX9000 w top specs go for $800 the other day, and a pristine HDX9300 with all top specs except for the CPU at 2.5 of course go for 1800+.
