    My laptop is HP Pavillion dv5-1125nr. Is it possible to install the HP Quick Web on this laptop? I downloaded and installed but it seems the laptop does not support this software (no config in Control Panel and BIOS Setting).

    Thanks!

    If it is not in the BIOS then your notebook doesn't support it.

    You can install Splashtop which is what afaik Quickweb is based on. When installed when you boot you get a boot menu to select Splashtop or Windows.

    Thanks willrea for your advice! I've installed Splashtop, but I'm a little bit disappointed because it is not the same as HP Quick Web (only internet functionality).
    Also, I cannot connect to Wifi because the hotkey to enable wifi is disabled. Can I install software or driver in this OS?

    You could try this. It is the source code for QuickWeb for the Mini and Pavilion. I don't know if it'll include the files for the install, but it probably does.
