vatzgr, this is a dv5 thread. While you may read of porblems after installing XP, most of us actually has a full working XP notebook .
I am not too sure about differences in DV5 and DV7, but if you have a few hours on your hand, it is not difficult to just install XP and then test it out.
But, remember to burn a recovery DVD before taking the plunge.

 

hello (my name is vangelis just fyi)

so DV5 to DV7 is the monitor inches i soposse... and i already burn 2 recovery dvds for vista with recovery manager, this u mean???

 

hello sir
all the above solution can work also with dv7-1150ev pavilion Hp notebook?

 

hello sir..........can the above solution works with Hp Pavilion dv7-1150ev notebook?

 

download the dv7 drivers and follow the same steps, it should work

 

ok i found some drivers... other works other no

is anyone here to help me on dv7-1150ev? sugestion if???

(btw follow all instruction of the forum have xp pro!!!! but on starting i have delay to go on gui of xp)

 

hello from me

the only one after instaling windows i can find is the driver for monitor.. on an HP pavilion dv7-1150ev the other drivers for dv5 seems diferent
can you hlep me with th drivers??
i have many unknown devises on device manager

thank you

 

is there anythread for dv7 users???
maybe they can help you

 

Same result on unpartitioned HDD. T.T

 

vangelis, you can start by posting a Screenshot of the Vista device drivers.
maybe we can try and help you identify what xp drivers to use.

 

any word on if DigitalPersona 4 is available for download anywhere? version 3 only works on Vista.

 

@vatzgr There is a dv7 thread about xp, read that. There are differences. Last time I read it they were having issues with the sound, but I think most other things were working. Mostly it should be the same as dv5t.

 

Good day Joshua

Thanks very much for the information. I have just purchased a HP dv5-1080ei
and followed your tut exactly with excellent results. all hardware is operational running in XP. Thanks again

ciao

 

did any of you guys try to install any linux version on the DV5 ?

 

dp64, above works well for me.

(also i found all the drivers for windows xp for dv7-1150ev hp laptop)

and from technical support of HP with chat method

thank you again

 

Hello.
I have a computer model Pavilion DV5-1130 ET.
Fingerprint reader can not find drivers for Xp.
Do the friends in your hand?
Thank you.

 

check the main page
i think joshua edited the thread and added the step on how to install finger print reader

 

I would install the program.
However, installing the driver is cut in half, so the warning is coming.
So the computer does not recognize the drive I guess ...
Processor Intel Core 2 Duo

Thanks ..

 

This is information about a person who can help me here? : (

 

What drivers did you use? If the newest from HP website, this could be a problem. I installed them and fingerprint sensor stopped working, too (both in Vista and XP). Try installing different drivers. Those for Vista should work, too, but maybe only if you install them with the 'have disk' method.

What version of DigitalPersona are you using? If 3.0, then it won't work with XP, either. You have to get ver. 4.0.

 

emrtkn, try this:

I'm using 4.0 version of DigitalPersona ..
The program is established in him no problem, but installing the drivers for Xp is cut in half.
I think that's why the program does not recognize it automatically ..

 

So installing the driver suddenly cut off as in the picture is ..




Thanks for your help .

 

I'm already established by the contents of this ..
As an example;
1 - I install the driver called sp39532
2 - After the installation I called setup32.
But as I installed the driver sp39532 name is lost in the semi ..

 

nice, cant believe this already reached page 73. dont want to read the whole thread, but how is it going so far?

 

emrtkn, just extract the zip files into a folder.
Just run the "setup32.exe".

 

haha, getting a bit long to read through.
for me, i have everything working and i tried not to install newer drivers

 

Yeah, usually if everything is working fine, I dont bother to update drivers.... because there is a risk that somethings might not work afterwards.
Unless the driver fixes a problem that I was experiencing before, which usually isnt the case. Usually they just add support for something dumb, haha.

 

@mujjuman check post 1 for current status. Pretty much everything except hard driver sensor protection is working. This works for AMD ppl it seems, but I only know of 1 person with an Intel chip that has it working.

I have not included the link to Digital Persona 4 in post 1 because I do not know the legality of it.

 

id asume its ok if its an OEM copy and only installs on specific hp models. if not, its questionable.

 

In this way, I am beginning to install ..



If this goes on ..



Continue ..





And then there is automatically cut off the computer to install!

 

Add a friend just had the problem with the drive.
Thank you to all have saved me from big trouble
Thanksssss

 

Finally, I made it. I knew now what's wrong. It's XP SP3 that I got from my brother. It was modified. After I've got new original XP CD. My laptop now work with XP without any hardware problem. Thanks a lot for all of your guys for sharing these valuable information.

 

Dear Joshua Wood, I have bought a new dv7-1183cl, i am from Costa Rica and don't like win vista. This is my advance: http://www.viarasoft.com/Downgrade.htm but the sound and modem devices are not present. I have installed win xp x64 sp2, it recognizes my 4 gb of RAM and thanks to your support above I already have my brigthness control working with the f.25 Bios update.

My problem is finding the correct uaa for xp x64 to view my sound devices. Some hours ago, making some testing, that devices pop up and ask for a restart, when I come back after restart, the devices gone/disappear and I don't know what happened or how to make it visible againg and then install the IDT drivers...

Could you help me?

I don't know about x64 sorry. I think there might be a lot of missing drivers for x64 XP. Most of this disucssion is about x86.

 

okay there is alot to go through! But is there a specific way of installing XP on a DV-7? like should i follow this format? anyone done on a dv-7? ANy help would be great! i know i might get flammed but looking for specific answers..Thanks in advance.

-LoS

 

the guide in general should work fine for your dv7. the only things that may be different are some drivers if any. whats your notebook model & platform?

 

OK. Now I have one question. I could not see the "IDT icon" or "IDT control panel" after install the IDT drvier (sp41693). What should I do?

 

I'm also having issues with the wifi (5100AGN) not functioning coming out of hibernation. Requiring a reboot to get it working (so why bother with hibernation?). Has anybody come up with a solution?

 

Hi all,

Thank you very much for your help to achieve the downgrade to xp.

I need help with the remapping in the ene cir driver, could someone explain me with examples how to use the keys dvd, quickplay, toggle display and green button in the remote control for other purposes?

Thanks in advance

 

Okay then i guess i have waited long enough to post my very first reply on this thread.

I have seen a lot of problems , questions that needed answer but it took me so long to give a reply for anyone because i am a very lazy person but seriously this question teased me alot.

wewe i dont think u fully understand overclocking a mobile gpu may possibly lead to, The 9600M GT chipped with many of the dv5 notebooks is a great graphics card and have a significant performance improve over the 8600M GT which has the same no. of stream processors ( 32 units in particular)
The main reason for this is the better 65nm technology used and the higher gpu and shader clocks.

So when u ask about overclocking it i would definetly DISAGREE because mobile cars of such higher clocks are already producing enough heat and overclocking wouldnt give u that much of a performance gain instead it will definetly fry ur gpu sooner or later.

sorry i waited so long to post this but havent visited the thread for a while.

 

hello to all aroud

finaly i have some unknown devices i post a picture about

the only one i can;t stabilize till now is the sound and the graphic card from nvidia model GeFORCE 9600M GT

one device like BCM5701 i don't know what it is.

if anyone can help on this please

 

BCM5701 might be a broadcom ethernet device. what is the specific model number of your hp notebook?

 

propably yes... but i already install and i have corect drivers for blue tooth, lan drivers, wireless....... and works also fine with touch buttons

 

HP Pavilion dv7-1150ev

Intel core duo 2,40 GHZ
320 SATA HD drivers
Nvidia Geforce 9600m GT graphic card
agere system HDA modem
etc.

i can't stabilize sound, modem drivers, and this device

 

have you visited the thread HP DV5T latest drivers? there is a link to it in my sig. there are a list of drivers in the first post that may help you out. there is a link to the latest IDT audio drivers for xp on there too. take a look at it and try out some of the drivers for your notebook. post back with your results. if you still have any devices that still dont function or have a question mark, post the device IDs and maybe we can help find drivers that will get that particular device to work.

 

yes of course i visited and soem of them works fine...

my big problem is the modem. and idt sound i'm not sure for the nvidia drivers i put on but works ok with nvidia drivers 179.48 beta version and 179.28 from softpedia...
i can't undertand why i can't stabilize the sound
when i run from folder us kb 835221 found the soun d but remain orange the touch buton , ask me for restart amnd after booting sounds is gone)
