To create a partition from a new or newly formatted computer, make sure Windows is installed. Load any programs and drivers you would like to keep in case you need to back up to a previous version of your computer's settings.

2

Install your partition creation software; in this article we will use Norton Ghost. Before creating your partition, disable any anti virus and other scanning software.

3

Create your partition by going to your ms-dos prompt: from your Start menu, press "Run," and type "cmd" without quotations in the run dialog box. At the dos prompt, type "fdisk" without quotations, and choose option 1 (Create DOS partition or Logical DOS Drive). Set the partition size to 10 GB at press enter.

4

Open Norton Ghost and follow the instructions to create a recovery partition in the new partition you had just created. The process should take anywhere from one to three hours, depending on the size of the files you are going to back up.

5

Restart your computer. When done, open Norton Ghost to verify that the Recovery Partition was created.

Try now~ Then you can reset your keyboard if you like

I think you have a broken USB keyboard or USB port. Simply plugging in the keyboard should be enough to make it work. First try the keyboard in a different USB port. Test the caps lock to see if the LED goes on and off. Also try a different keyboard and also test it in a different computer.

please use English, ok?

what computers.?? 1000's of models over 30 years. made F10 is BIOS screens, so if that works, BIOS. and any screen then the PC is not booting. try booting to CD? *(a free linux live cd?) as a test. if that works run HDD tests. next ill stop here, if you can get this far, we go to next step F11 HDD reload the OS, if PC is 2006 or newer from HP.

Try again with the model number

what is a device? did you mean PC, a collections of devices and chips:? a PC Is not a DEVICE it is a system.(or machine) why in the world not buy a new battery first? if charging fails. mine sometimes go bad even 1 year old, when I abuse it. and I fully expect that, if you read the battery makers pages, youd learn how that happens' (cycling the snarf out of it) if i remove the word DEVICE and add LAPTOP OR PC THE ANSWER IS THIS. IF the Pc does not run with the battery (main big) out ! the power pack is bad. the PC will run forever on AC power, a fact, !!! I do so all the time, or even the wrong AC pack used, (mixed up with other pc:) get a new pack, get one matching your systems, needs (watts) the laptops can come with 5 processor options and 4 graphic chip options, the worse mix is 100watts, HP will tell you that match. but only if YOU tell your full service tag data.... that magic, nnnnnnnABA# number tells the HP pro what is inside this laptop and what power park is right or just buy the 19v, 100watt pack. here is real HP, fixya is NOT. they can match you up as can the hp PARTS SURFER, https://h30434.www3.hp.com/

sure, get the Correct HP driver for this exact pc but, but but...The windows sounds are dead. (do that yet>, CP + sound test)CP = control paneltry to know , most HP made, dv6345us, can have 3 sound chips as an option day 1 new!what you have is clearly stated in the service tag that you did NOTpost, the number ending in ABA# is THAT number.the chip and PC and the unstated OS all must matchwindows what? you never said so i cant match that either.VISTA????????? vista 32 bit or 64????????but the other way is what, sure, guess.read the drivers at HP and try all there.for sound chips (aka audio)This HP computer is 11 years old. now. (2007)HP dropped most support on it this old, (SOP) one sound chip is Conexant AC -Link Audiolets say you said (service tag) RV214UA#ABAand you said VISTA> what works there.the secret is deep, lacking full spec, from HP.finding Conexant drivers is not easy, lots of hits all virus sites now.lets first look .does device manager show it as bad.CP+DM see sound there. is it red, yellow or Unknown marked.go to CP again control panelclick sound is the Conexant still there.the window for sound has a speaker is it selected?select speaker then properties lower right.then pick enhancementshit checkmark, disable all sound effectsclick tab levels, turn up volume.can you do all that, i bet not, its got bad drivers for this chipVISTA btw is dead so asking MS to update driver is dream of dreams, hopeless, now and for sure forward.you dont have the HP install disks so that source too is missing.,leaving you , VISTA and MS and HP and conexant in the lurch.if microsoft was not dead and your internet was alive (is it)the remove the driver, and reload, it under device manager.it then magically PnP reloads from MS but not if the MS driver servers are off line as they sure are. (1/2 or all) (ms secret this is)Hard this is,::::, 1ST OFF, is HP ended support,ON YOUR PC NOW.2nd VISTA support has ended at MS. (double dead)3rd factor (bad) IS Conexant maker of chip and their Driver. IS DEAD. TRIPLE DEAD.SHORT WHY>?synaptics Bought out Conexant in 2017, and shows no support NOW. FOR THAT. the Snaptics web site lists nothing on the words driver or conexant. zero support, but do call them,,,? SO that ends that foray. leaving all those malwares sites offering this driver, only. ? many we can find it this magical way. the FAMOUS DRIVER PACKS site. (all safe ask) the one place on earth with no malware is here.this is the vista set 32bit only 64 is on other pagethere are 15 drivers for Conexant. there. get them try them.end storyhttp://driverpacks.net/driverpacks/windows/7/x86/audio/11.11

There should be a button on your keyboard labeled "PrtScn". It stand for "Print Screen". This will copy an image of your screen. Simply open Microsoft Paint or a similar software and select paste. Your screen shot should appear in your chosen software.

NO PC stated (model name and full number) NO OS stated, is this XP? must we beg you to get hard key facts like this>? what are you attempting, ? the Finger print reader has many features, which one are you attempting? yes, it can work but only works on matching PC and matching OS. the HP pages there warn you,.it only works on the OS sold with PC. (eg vista or w7) HP web site on your PC is clear, ever look there? my HP 8540w , works perfectly with W7 but not w10 ! i can not use the reader nor the security package, ever. But w10 is happy there , FP reader stuff removed. HP will not revise these drivers and apps for W10 ever. see my point? In my example case. there are 2 parts, the FP reader, driver. and the security package ( vastly huge and complex !) i say why use it at all? do you have secrets on your PC? (you 007 agent?) 008? or your soon to be published book ? (huge value) or engineering work/ cad/cam, etc. or valuable art, (or music composer) or you are CEO or FCO with sensitive data? (accountant?) if no, then avoid that. The reader is safe but not the security HP applications: look in the registry at all that complexity, and risk for that. you can use the reader to block BIOS boots. dead. block the windows, login page. or block specific apps, or all 3. is say don't do it, at all. But all that works on mine 100% on w7 only. it does work but is still risky. other apps do not like it , etc.

so you are asking for a 3rd party, really? no OS stated, wow, must we guess that?windows what?BIOS test, or inside windows, if inside what way did you do that? tell how? running the extended memory diagnostics test.the mem test fails.there are many ways for that to fail.but if the BIOS memory test fails, gee say so. say BIOS. if in windows, and it's corrputed why in the world run mem test in any corrupted OS? as XP surely is.BIOS RAM TEST: (tossed the big coin there, lands BIOS)then the ram is failingcaused by.1; Bad ram. take them all out and test them 1 by 1.2: wrong ram, used, very common on old PCs3: the power supples to the ram are weak.4: there are modules on the mobo that can be shorted causes effect #3 above, strip the PC down to just nill and test. cd out, hdd out, all extry ram out. modem card out, wifi card out, all moduels out but CPU and 1 stick of ram.pass mem test now?, if not, the mobo is dead.one needs one known good ram stick to prove this.see why? many are not for sure used or from old systems.may makers of ram do not make ram for old computers now.making repairs hard.the RAM needs to match 1 of 6 CPUthe fast one isIntel Core i7-620M Processor it must be 620m compatible and for speed.Upgradeable to 8192MB with 4096MB SODIMMs in slots 1 and 2to use full size windows 64bit must be used.buy 1gb stick and test with that, first.cheap stick fast test.ddr3204pin PC3-10600(i have no idea at all what processor is there)so.... i go worst case for you.a cheap test memory (if your pc lacks 2 sticks)is here or at amazon for $5https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=PC3-10600++ddr3%2C++204pin+1gb&_sop=15

the wireless signal can be strange, do both computers display the same signal strength ? Are they both connected at the same speed ? Small variations can make a big difference

old DV5-2125 (circa 2010 carbon dated, IIRC) its bad? the port. or. do tests. tests solve problems. try it on 2 TV's yet, be smart. is this windows 7 (or dead XP./vista) or w10, i cant guess that. did you use a real HP driver, from HP and not virus sites? (endless) HDMI is just in front of eSata port. do not mix those. (working in dark) try new cable.? load the real drivers seen here? only these work. shipped windows 7, is it still W7 or w8 or w10 last year did you upgrade to W10, gee, be like question1. this pc had intel or amd drivers, new. only the correct one works. learn too that underlaying drivers can fail killing this too. hint load them all , and do not mess with FLASHING BIOS !! this PC is like 2 PCs, totally different, getting the correct driver is not easy,. HP can guide you, but you picked fixha, why here> https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-dv5-2100-Entertainment-Notebook-PC-series/4210545 here is real HP, ask them how to match drivers. sometime even the full service tag must be told to them to get a match up, (For sure Intel, AMD , classed mobo variances.) https://h30434.www3.hp.com/

NO OS STATED, elite M9040n what?by you, so how can we show you the matching sound chip driver. we cant.why not go to HP realand see what drivers they support for your exact PCno service tag shows by you.the model and p/n , matter. not just model.(no headphones plugged in the USB ports , right)?(no sound cars in the PCI slots inside , right?)one model series can have 3 sound chips used, in a production run, (years)that is what the p/n field tells HP helpers what you have.the chip i think was, (on mobo)Audio CODEC: Realtek ALC888S the pc came with VISTA i think. (hp told me)32bit is sp37325.exe64bit is sp37324.exeknowing that we can find it at hp fTP server.if you know the driver you need, by file nameyou can find it here, too. at HP.ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software9/COL22124/pv-58189-1/above is for legacy pc.. if the support page is missinghttps://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-pavilion-elite-m9000-desktop-pc-series/3550541/model/3550542
