I bought an HP Spectre x360 for college and everything was fine at first.... but for the past couple of months, my laptop has been having some real loud fan issues. Just by starting up the device with minimal programs causes it to whir very obnoxiously. I only have Skype, Microsoft Office, and a few other basic programs installed on it... is there any way to fix this?
View Solution.
I recommend downloading and running Reimage. It's a computer repair tool that has been proven to identify and fix many Windows problems with a high level of success.
I've used it in the past to identify and fix everything from blue screens (BSOD's), ActiveX errors, corrupt files and processes, dll/exe/sys errors, recover lost memory, Windows update problems, defragging, malware removal etc.
You can download it direct from this link http://downloadreimage.com/directdownload.php. (This link will automatically start a download of Reimage that you can save to your computer.)

Hello, I have an HP Spectre x360 i7 which is having some issues with CPU usage. Basically, even at idle with no programs open, the Desktop Window Manager process will eat up between %30-50 of the CPU in the task manager. I'm a bit worried/confused, as a computer this powerful should not be getting hot/using it's fan when checking e-mail, and this process isn't anything fancy. Is anyone aware of some good troubleshooting moves? Known problems with the x360 i7? Known problems with the Windows 10 64-bit desktop windows manager process? Thanks in advance for your help. Best regards,David

I bought this recently. Everything is fine unless the charging issue. I saw many people have this issue, but mine is little different. 1. I can charge, so AC adapter is fine2. sometime (yes, sometimes), AC cannot charging again (for example, when I wake up, sometimes it is out of battery even though I didn't move laptop)3. if I plug out and plug in AC to nb again, then it charges again. It seems it is a hardware issue. Any solutions? Thank youhttp://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/HP-X360-Spectre-15t-charging-issues/td-p/5705340
I've had a dislay problem where a vertical line will suddenly show up on my screen and also that the whole screen has a "shake like" view. This is not a software driver issue as everything is up to date and it appears to be 100% hardware related. Sometimes you can "tap" the window and it comes back from the vertical screen to just a "shake like" view. Help!

Dear HP, I am also facing the same issue with vertical lines on my screen. it is not consistant, but happening more frequent. So far I have not been able to find a resolution for the issue. also HP support has not been able to find resolution. Sometimes after few minutes the screen unfreezes and gets back to normal.However in a high demanding work environment this is not acceptable.Please help to resolve. Regards

What type of laptop cooler does HP recommend for the Spectre X360? I've had my laptop for a while and use it every day for our business. It runs very hot. Thanks.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/HP-Spectre-X360-laptop-heat-issues/td-p/5850606
I recently purchased my laptop this past April and it has stopped charging. I thought it was the charger since my guinea pig chewed the mickey mouse cable a bit, so I got a replacement in the mail. However, replacing the cable did not solve the issue. The partially chewed cable worked up until the day I installed Windows 10, coincidentally. I'm just wondering if it's possible that installing Windows 10 could have caused some unkown bug to cause my laptop to stop charging. I really don't think it's the charger since it is brand new. Please can anybody help me? Thank you. P.S. The laptop battery is dead so I cannot turn it on to check drivers or bios.
The exact same thing happened to me. I received a new adapter and power cord from HP, as my Spectre is only 5 weeks old. The new power cord and adapter didn't work and now my laptop won't even turn on. I wish I could help, but I have no idea what to do to fix my own laptop since it won't turn on.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/spectre-x360-battery-charging-issues/td-p/5184278

Hi there @Alpin?,Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome! This is a great site to get answers and ask questions. I have looked into the issue(s) you are having with your Bluetooth and Wireless Connections. Please NOTE; Use only one Bluetooth-enabled device at a time. Using multiple Bluetooth-enabled devices at a time may cause the devices to lose their connection. Here is a document I found called Understanding and troubleshooting Bluetooth wireless technology. It explains Bluetooth Wireless Technology for you. I also found a document called Troubleshooting Wireless Network and Internet (Windows 8). Here is a document from the Microsoft Community on Constant Drops in Internet Connection. It has some troubleshooting steps as well. Please follow these provided troubleshooting steps, re-post and let me know how everything went. Thank you! Have a great day!http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Wireless-and-Networking/Spectre-X360-Wireless-and-bluetooth-connectivity-issues/td-p/5134075
What's the difference between the HP Spectre x360 and the HP Envy x360? They both look the same.The only noticeable difference is that HP Spectre x360 has a Radiance Infinity display, while HP Envy x360 has an IPS display. Having the same specs, except for the display, why is the Spectre x360 more expensive than the Envy x360 ? Moreover, I thought that IPS is better than TN, which is my guess that is the technology used for the Radiance Infinity.
Hi, You've got few questions about those products. Well, come to a store and yoy can see the differences. Better still, you can buty 2 machines and compare. For build quality, the HP Spectre x360 is much better than the Envy x360 you can also find Pavilion x360 - we are talking about SPECS and BUILD here about plastics and metals about wood and gold.

New owner of HP Spectre x360 - 13-4003dx here. I want to ask if the bottom of the laptop, the area above the fan openings where the FCC info/text lies, is supposed to creak when I press it slightly. I first heard this noise when I took my laptop out of the sleeve and held that area. At first I thought it was just rubbing against the sleeve, but after further examination, that is not the case. If this occurs with other models of the Spectre, it is a bad build quality, I am not sure which component is under there, but I want to know if the creaking noise is normal with only a slight press along the text area. Thanks.
I have the same problem but in the front, in the back of the touchpad... really annoying. looks like the lid doesn't have nothing to lay on and the aluminium is very thin. poor quality for such expensive machine.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Software-and-How-To-Questions/HP-Spectre-x360/td-p/4962570
Hi, my spectre x360 just out of warranty and will no longer charge the battery! Charger checked and working. When plugged into laptop, symbol appears to show connection but then states not charging. Battery nearly flat now but diagnostics state batter condition ok. Would appreciate any ideas to resolve please but I am not considered computer literate just general working knowledge!
Hi @ Roy1955, Thanks for being a part of the HP community. It is a great place to get your questions answered by experts .I saw your post regarding the problems with the battery. This could be a possible hardware issue with the battery. Kudos to you for performing the battery tests. Brilliant work was done. It may be a possible battery issue. However, I would require more information regarding this to isolate the issue correctly? How did you run diagnostics? Was it from The F2 UEFI diagnostics page or from HP support assistant?In the meantime, Please perform a hard reset first.Steps to do it:Power down the computer and unplug the charger.Hold down the power button and mute button simultaneously for 15 seconds to discharge static electrical charges inside the machine.Then visit this link to troubleshoot battery related issues: http://hp.care/2cqnxWZPlease perform these steps listed in the link mentioned above.Testing and Calibrating the Battery. (Windows 10)Battery Does Not Power Notebook or Hold a Charge.Hope this helps. Please let me know how this goes. To simply say thanks for my efforts, please click the "Thumbs Up" button.

Hello nbsp Last winter nbsp purchased a convertible nbsp lenovo laptop The first one had faulty hinges I had it replaced on the same day I brought it in and the second one had faulty hinges and a faulty touchpad So I decided to ditch the cheaper computers and splurged on a HP spectre x from Best Buy I live kilometres away from large retail stores like this so getting back and forth is quite difficult Staples was very understanding about the Lenovo laptops however Best Buy told me there was nothing nbsp I could do when I described the problems I was having with my brand new HP Several months went x360 Spectre - Given Up HP I've by and I avoided using the computer as much as HP Spectre x360 - I've Given Up possible in order to avoid facing the mistake I made in purchasing it Eventually my old computer became completely obsolete and I had no choice but use this HP nbsp nbsp My problems were not limited in any way They ranged from an extremely annoying touchpad nbsp that sounded loose and made strange noises the fact that the screen was closing on an odd angle and the fact the the screen could barely stay open A slight touch or even shifting the laptop would cause the screen to move I could forgive these flaws if I had abused this computer or if it had received nbsp heavy usage however I barely even turned the thing on I contacted HP support and I must admit that they were polite friendly nbsp and had my return materials sent very quickly nbsp nbsp My first bad sign involving the shipping process was the fact that there were materials missing from the box they sent which I then had to find a way around myself My second issue is that they forced me to use UPS to ship it from a rural area with no local UPS dealer Then when it got back after well over a week my problems continued My touchpad nbsp has improved however it is still frustrating nbsp to use Even though I described my issues with the screen they did not appear to have even looked at it nbsp nbsp I am at the point now where I cannot go without a computer as school starts again in only a couple weeks and I need a computer I am extremely disappointed nbsp in the build quality of this premium product and I fear it may have turned me off from buying HP computers again nbsp nbsp For the same money I could have bought a variety of other computers with reputations of being much more helpful when it comes to these sorts of issues I really wanted to like this computer however I just can't bring myself to do it If a HP service rep reads this post don't waste your time in responding I have no choice but keep and use this product - no matter how much it's manufacturing flaws or the company behind it annoys me nbsp nbsp Kind Regards nbsp nbsp -N nbsphttp://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Video-Display-and-Touch/HP-Spectre-x360-I-ve-Given-Up/td-p/5736065

Hello ,First I want to say that I tried contacting HP sales in 5pm they said that they are working from 8am to 2 am which is already a warning sign ...I am planning on buying HP Spectre x360 ash silver.I love how it looks and also the performance is really good for the money.My concern is that I have read so many complains of cracked screen from itself ( design flaw or uncalculated pressure on the screen or heating up too much , something is causing the screens to crack ...) Hp hasn't made official statement on this issue and so far I understood that the warranty doesn't cover it.I don't want to spend so much money on something that will break from itself and the warranty won't cover it.Is there someway to include this issue in the warranty before buying the laptop?http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/Warranty-on-HP-Spectre-x360/td-p/5634216
Anybody knows if it's possible replace the laptop's SSD with another M.2 but pcie? I have read in some forum on internet that's possible but i'm not sure because i bought a Samsung SM951 e i tried to mount but the notebook does not see it!!!!The laptop's M.2 connector is it compatible with pcie? Can i replace my SSD with one pcie?I updated BIOS to rev F.25 but nothing. Is there some BIOS configuration to do so that the notebook can see the pcie SSDs? Thanks for replies and sorry for my bad english Santo
Can you identify where you tried to put the mSSD by reference to the Manual here: Manual See p. 28. It uses M.2 SATA drives and if the drive you installed is a PCIe type it will not be recognized. AHCI type drives only as far as I can see. I know only the very most recent desktop motherboards will boot from a pcie M.2 mSSD.

I have purchased my Spectre x back in nbsp and i have been using it for less than a year So far the laptop experience have been rather satisfying Apart from experiencing minor glitches initially the updates helped and the laptop worked just fine and smoothly Though the speakers stil have rattling sound when played loudly nbsp nbsp Until recently couple weeks back x360: Spectre RIP Haywire, HP the laptop went haywire as i was doing my assignments Without any signs to indicate any mechanical problems the whole system just shut down i couldn't switch it on nor could HP Spectre x360: Haywire, RIP i even charge it nbsp So i have called up the service centre and since it is still nbsp under warranty they have replaced the motherboard On the bright side I did not lose any datas or files However I have discovered my case wasn't the first to happen as there was one earlier case which was much severe The laptop's motherboard literally burnt The bottom part was HP Spectre x360: Haywire, RIP all black and all nbsp data was lost nbsp nbsp nbsp The following image was the default in my product that has occured recently nbsp nbsp nbsp Hope to receive advise and any precautionary steps to avoid this mishap Thanks nbsphttp://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-System-and-Recovery/HP-Spectre-x360-Haywire-RIP/td-p/5808631
I have an HP Spectre x360 Convertible with Product Number K8P19LA#ABM. I want to use it as a drawing and sketching tool. I have read several reviews from other x360 owners and decided that my best option was to buy a Dell Active Pen PN556W to use. Similar qualities as the HP Active Pen (which are not sold on my country) but with better reviews. I have had no opportunity to use my pen, as it is not recognized in any way by the screen.I have also installed the Anniversary edition of Windows 10 with better Pen Support and it still doesn't recognizes my pen. My configuration is:Windows 10 ProPen and Touch Support with 10 Touch Points
Hi, Is Dell stylus support HP machines mentioned on its specs ? You are asking HP to support another vendor's product here. From my view: No HP won't support other vendor's products unless HP does not have equivalent products.Dell may be very happy for HP (or other competitors) to support its products, it will sell more and laughing to the bank.Regards.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Video-Display-and-Touch/Spectre-x360-stylus/td-p/5740938

hi i recently bought HP Spectre x with highest specs an d i'm facing some real serious issues with the touchpad clickpad as many others in this forum and reviewers pointed out the clicks are not being recognized In my case I'd say it is around of the clicks don't get registered and I have to click again to make it work That is really frustrating and enough to make me come here and post this question I really like the laptop and this is exactly what I've been looking for but this clickpad is a real deal breaker I followed some suggestions on this forum and also tried some troubleshooting myself since i Spectre touchpad x360 myself is a support engineer but Spectre x360 touchpad to no avail I changed the synaptics settings to try and remove too much intelligence from the Spectre x360 touchpad touchpad and at least get the basic functionality right but i continue to miss the clicks I also tried replacing the driver with synaptic one but the problem continues which tells me that it is something related to the hardware piece than the software driver can someone here please help me with this if i hadn't liked the laptop i wouldn't bother posting here to try and find a solution i'd simply get rid of it and go with lenovo yoga pro or something else but this laptop has really high build quality and classy looks but probably killed by this buggy piece of hardware nbsp

I recently acquired an HP x360 Spectre 15t (about 5 days ago). During charging I noticed that the charger plug is quite warm/hot. Using a laser temp gun, I measured the hottest point of the plug to be 152F. The average temp reading seems to run around 128F (scanning different points on plug). Is this normal for thie plug to be running at this temperature while charging?

Not sure exactly where to put this but here goes. Recently registered for a HP Student account to get a student discount on a new laptop. When on the student store home page there's a section for new student deals/offers which lists the HP Spectre 13-4108na x360 (i5-6200U, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) as being £799 with £100 off. Problem is when I click to view the offer in the store or to shop for the offer I can't find it anywhere in the presented list of laptops, it just doesn't make sense to me that the product is listed and advertised as being on offer if I can't actually purchase it ...http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-System-and-Recovery/HP-Spectre-13-4108na-x360/td-p/5764451
Hello Folks nbsp I have the nbsp HP Spectre x - t- CTO and have spent weeks trying to get my brand new HP Active Stylus to work with this brand new laptop I also bought a nd stylus to make sure the first one wasn't the problem nbsp I have spoken with five different tech support reps plus my case was escalated to a team of engineers nbsp Although this very stylus is listed as compatible with this laptop the word today from the engineers nbsp was that no I cannot use a stylus with my laptop there is no work-around and although there is a firmware upgrade for the model HP 13t-4200 - Spectre CTO x360 there is nothing for the model nor can they tell me if there is any plans nbsp in the works and that I am welcome to return the laptop for a refund and long as I do it in the next couple days before days after receiving the laptop nbsp Sorry HP this has been a nightmare with non-stop bad information and I think that you should publish on the website that a stylus will not work so that when people consider purchasing this model HP Spectre x360 - 13t-4200 CTO they will know that they can't use a HP Spectre x360 - 13t-4200 CTO stylus nbsp But we all know that's not going to happen because it could affect sales of the laptop nbsp If you have to have a stylus working on this laptop you should go with the Dell XPS nbsp HP Spectre x360 - 13t-4200 CTO Frankly I should have know better as this is my very first HP computerhttp://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Video-Display-and-Touch/HP-Spectre-x360-13t-4200-CTO/td-p/5773176

Hello everyone,so suddenly and for reason my laptop (HP Spectre X360) stopped workin and it shows no sign of life anymore, the only led works now is the charging led, when I plug in my charger it lits in white that's it!! no other lights or any feedback from the pc!! it's less than 6 months old now and never had any issues with it before! I went to bestbuy and they said it might be the motherboard that needs to be replaced, so idk if anyone of you had the issue before? and if the motherboard has been replaced would I lose all my data? and do they even need to access my data to replace the motherboard??thanks,,,

I have an HP Spectre x360 with a 2 year ADP coverage. I purchased the laptop in US... but I am currently employed and working in India. My screen has got damaged and needs to be replaced, but the local service center is unable to verify the ADP care pack details in India. I purchased this laptop after doing my research that the product is marketed in India and will be supported here. However, now the local tech support is saying that the Family name - pike1.0 not available in India and the laptop cannot be serviced even if the ADP is avaiable. As per the ADP contract, HP Support can courier the necessary parts to the local service center and my laptop can be serviced. How do i resolve this issue?
Hi, Yes, they say the true, many HP laptops asre localized that means HP local can only help you (a) Order part)s) from original country and repair it for you or(b) You have to send machine back to the original country (in this case the US) for repair. Warranty or not, same rule. Please read (very similar to your case): ANSWER: You can call HP Customer Support or HP Authorized Support Providers for diagnostic purposes. If a hardware service is required, two alternatives can be offered: The part can be dispatched by HP Customer Support or the HP Authorized Support Partner within the border of the country where they are located. It is your responsibility to get the part from this location, move it to the PC, and to return the defective parts - when required - to the same location. Associated costs are your responsibility. The PC may be moved, under your responsibility and at your cost, to the closest country where HP has support presence, or any other country chosen by yourself (depending on the logistics network), in order to get access to the solution. When HP has no support presence in the country of use, all actions and costs required to gain warranty services are your responsibility.

Twice today, my laptop set idle and all of a sudden it started to open windows like someone was hacking the computer. I turned off the wi-fi and it showed windows with scripts opening mainly on the left bottom corner of the screen. I bought this laptop 4 days ago and I've not loaded much on it. Has anyone had this problem? When I turn it to tablet mode it stops. I have videos of it if needed.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Software-and-How-To-Questions/Spectre-x360-seems-to-be-acting-on-its-own/td-p/5681497

Yeah but it is not easy and will jeopardize the warranty. See pages 32-33 of this Manual, which is the closest thing out there for your Model: Service Manualhttp://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/SSD-upgrade-for-spectre-x360/td-p/4949235
I have had my X360 for about a year but just recently it's really running hot after a short time of use. I have turned it completely off overnite instead of putting it in sleep mode and it still runs hot. I have it currently leaning so there is absolutely nothing blocking the vents in the back and it's still super hot. What am I to do to cool it down and is there something that HP is doing to fix this issue?http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/Spectre-X360-Runs-HOT/td-p/5764736
I just purchase a HP Spectre x360 and the HP Active pen from Best Buy. Great laptop but I have noticed that I need to press VERY hard before the pen responds. If I don't press hard, then pen strokes appear very light. When I cross H's or T's the cross doesn't register. If i put the laptop in Tablet mode, then I can get the letters to appear as expected. But when Writing on the screen in regular "laptop" mode or "Tent mode", the letters appear as "chicken" scratch I didn't find any settings for adjusting the Pen's Sensitivity in windows or one note. I would prefer that the pen behave more like a finger. Just more precise.
I've heard better review for the Dell Active Stylus (the one with aluminum top half). It has worked great for me and I heard it has better sensitivity.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-System-and-Recovery/Hp-Active-Pen-Spectre-x360/td-p/4969129

I have exactly the same problem. I have bought my "Hp Spectre x360 13 inch, i7, ram 16, Hard 512 solid" less than a month ago from Bestbuy in NJ. From my first use, I found that it gets so hot after less than half a hours which my leg feels burning. I still didn't install a heavy program or compilers and I am using this laptop only for surfing the internet or writing text in the Microsoft word. Please help me for this issue.
My Spectre was heating up during idle. I use RealTemp to monitor temperature and set alarm for 180F. It was hard to catch the culprit, because it stopped as soon as I moved the mouse or keyboard to check. I finally used Process Monitor to track CPU during idle and discovered that it was Norton 360 which does aggressive system checking during idle. I like Norton and the way it checks and rates download executable files. Setting lower priority for Norton doesn't do anything and I don't really want to do that anyway. And I don't want to inhibit the system checking. So, now I leave my Spectre on my homemade vacuum pad during idle to solve that problem. *sigh* I need a way to throttle back aggressive programs as a function of temperature.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Boot-and-Lockup/Re-Spectre-X360-Extremely-hot/td-p/5735736

Hello, I just received my i7 model of the HP Spectre X360 today and after a short period of use on the computer the upper left corner of the body of the computer becomes very hot, so much that resting it on part of my body becomes unbearable. I had read up on the notebook before buying it and the only mention of any issue of this sort was in a pros/cons list in one review that merely stated that "the bottom runs warm." Thus I was not expecting this level of heat while using the laptop rather casually, as the most intensive thing I was doing was streaming videos. Is this normal for what I am doing on this laptop? It's not the worst problem but it is definitely worrisome as I am planning on using this laptop for the next four years or so. Thank you all in advance!
Hi @yiajiipamu ,
I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publically post ( serial numbers and case details).
If you are unfamiliar with how the Forum's private message capability works, you can learn about that here.

I am turning to you all, as I have been unable to get an answer from HP sales, HP tech and HP engineers refuse to give me an answer. Before possibly purchasing said laptop, I simply want to know how many nits brightness and what is the contrast ratio for the latest spec x360 15-ap007na 4k laptop.

Hi!I'm just experiencing some issues with my recently bought laptop. It is probably nearly 2 months old, and this is happening as I type this. I am charging my laptop and it's been, say 30 minutes since charging and the charger is really hot! It's keeping me warm in this cold winter I could say. Is there something wrong with it? Should I unplug even though it's charged up to 85% ... I have a feeling it's dangerous. If anyone has any advice, please let me now! Much appreciated,Sam

I have the i5 version, and I experience the same heat issues as you guys described. Also, the area right above the F1-F5 keys gets really really hot after running anything even mildly graphics intense. Even simple 2d flash games will cause the fan to throttle up and that area will become extremely hot. It has been like this since the beginning. Other than the heat issue, I honestly have no qualms with this ultrabook.
Hi @odontomon, Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. It is a great site for information and questions. I have looked into your issue about your HP Spectre X360 Notebook and issues with overheating and possible fan issues. Here is a link on what could cause overheating and how to reducing heat inside the Notebook. You could reset the BIOS with this document selecting the reloading the BIOS default settings. Which has helped others as it restores the fans default settings. Please let me know how this goes. Thanks.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Operating-Systems-and-Recovery/Re-Spectre-X360-Extremely-hot/td-p/5116759
I bought hp laptop spectre x360 with a global warranty from usa but it stopped working and is not getting on after a lot off try and even the people here in india are saying that they can't do anything with this laptop as dont have support for this.

I purchased an HP Spectre 15 x360 in March 2016 and have been struggling with freezing/lock ups since then. I have tried updating all drivers but this hasn't fixed the problem. Almost daily, the screen freezes, the cursor shows a "busy" signal, and Windows does not recover. I have to do a full shutdown and restart, and lose all my work. I haven't been able to pinpoint what is causing this freezing. This has been a problem since the laptop was first received, so I am wondering if there is a hardware problem. Thanks for any help/ideas you can provide.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-System-and-Recovery/Spectre-x360-15-freezing/td-p/5843690
My spectre x360 is the skylake version and came with an m.2 ssd that supports sata 3. Does anyone know if the laptop would also support an NVMe ssd?
Hi, I think HP has stopped publish Maintenance and Service guide for this series but from my record, it only supports Support for single PCIe / SATA M2 solid-state drive configuration as storage (scope M2 2260/2280 DS solid-state drive) in the following configurations:? 256-GB solid-state drive self-encrypting drive (SED) supporting multi-level cell (MLC)? 180-GB solid-state drive supporting MLC? 128-GB solid-state drive supporting MLC Regards.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/NVMe-for-my-Spectre-x360/td-p/5765762
I cannot create a new folder on the desktop. Right click of the mouse pad does nothing. Shift Control N does nothing. This is ridiculous. Any help is appreciated.
Does right click work at all? Try right click on Start button and see if it produces a menu. Some people has experienced problems with their touch pad, try using a mouse and see if right click works.
is there an active pen available for the Spectre 15? many thanks

Greetings, I just bought the HP spectre x360 with the i7 processor, and I've tried over 100 times to register a right click on the trackpad and it has failed to do every single time. I have read several articles complaning about the width being the problem to the right click, but mine has failed to register. period. I went into the control panel to try to disable it then enable once again in hopes to it working, but nothing has changed. I have only been able to register a "right click" by holding down on the touchscreen which is fairly inconvienent. I would like to see this problem fixed because I do enjoy everything else about this laptop, but that is a major flaw for me. Thank you.
Hello, When did the issue start for you with the right click funtionality problem?

My Spectre X360 is becoming extremely warm in the bottom upper left. It is to warm to have on my lap and I am worried about the computer becoming too hot. The laptop was bought only a month ago and I have yet to use it for any extensive purpose. Is this just a problem with this model or just mine? And is there anyway to fix this or will I have to buy an external fan?http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/Spectre-X360-i7-extremely-hot/td-p/5738550

Unfortunately our machine is 1 year + 1 month old and they won't give us a break on the repair. They estimate that it would be $300. I agree with many folks on this topic that this is a design issue and they need to do a recall instead of having their customers pay to replace the faulty parts.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Boot-and-Lockup/Re-My-hp-spectre-x360-won-t-turn-on-at-all/td-p/5657463

I SOLVED IT! After hours of pain, i can now use the built in soundcard with headphones, as well as the internal speakers. HOW TO: Edit grub config by doing:'sudo vim /etc/default/grub' Edit the line:GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash'" To:GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor acpi_osi='!Windows 2013' acpi_osi='!Windows 2012'" Then run:'sudo update-grub' Reboot TWO times. BOOM! Sound works in headphones. The sound card is now in HDA mode (not I2S). To confirm, run:'aplay -l' and make sure you have the following in the output: 'card 1: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC3242 Analog [ALC3242 Analog] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0'I'm running kernel Linux spectre 3.19.0-21-generic #21-Ubixuntu SMP on Ubuntu x64.

Recently after getting windows update my spectre x360 is facing a issue of sound. There is no sound and the volume button of taskbar shows a red cross signal and saying no audio device or headphone is plugged in. After installed the driver sp70653.exe yesterday, the problem was gone. But today after installing windows update (synaptics-pointing drawing), I am facing the sound problem again. This time I tried that driver again but problem is not solved. So what can I do now?
Hi, Can you post back with the following details. 1. The full Model No. and Product No. of your notebook - you can usually get this by holding down the fn key and pressing esc, otherwise see Here for a guide on locating this information. 2. Hold down the Windows key and press R Into the Run window, type devmgmt.msc and hit enter. In Device Manager, expand Sound, Video and Game Controllers - what devices are listed here?

Hello @nscribner?, Welcome back to the HP Forums! I have read your post and understand that the volume is low on your HP Spectre x360 13-4103dx . I have researched the issue and have come up with a possible resolution. First, please perform a hard reset. Once that is complete, please follow the steps in these documents: HP Notebook PCs - No Sound from Speakers (Windows 10, 8)Microsoft - Fix sound problemsTips for Using, Carrying and Protecting your HP Notebook PC To answer some of your questions, the specifications page does indicate under sound "Bang & Olufsen with dual speakers". HP Spectre 13-4103dx x360 Convertible PC Product Specifications. There are a few different audio drivers that you can try, for the best output from the notebook drivers page. Although there is no discrete data explaining the placement of the speakers, it would make sense that would be the desired effect. If the document did not help you resolve the issue, try restoring the BIOS and then check for windows updates.Thank you, I look forward to your response with the outcome.If this post has helped you, feel free to click the thumbs up!http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Audio/Spectre-x360-speaker-volume-too-low/td-p/5414169

Hi.How do I get the HP laptop to clear printer que upon print job completion?My HP Spectre won't clear the print que after a print job is complete.I don't know if the HP Officejet 4630 is sending a signal back correctly to validate completion.The print job hangs there. If I pause and cancel the print job, it does not go away.If I restart the laptop the print job reprints on the printer and then the print que is emptied.I have had to reset the printer spooler via services.I have re-installed printer, updated drivers, nothing.The printer port is WSD-4c4fc3a3-a73f-4613-9faf-c26e0c12a922.013b.My wife's laptop, Lenovo Yoga, prints and empties the que, although she gets a notice that the printer paper jammed after every print job, it isn't jammed.HP to HP communication?

After I have been using spectre x360 for a couple weeks, I noticed that the hinge is quite loose particularly at 90 to 180 degrees. And I can wobble it at some point without using any force. Moreover, when I hold the base while the screen is more than 90 degrees and shake the notebook a little bit, the screen will bend far to the back. It looks like the hinge is too loose and can not hold the weight of the screen. Is there any way to tighten it?Thanks.

I have had my Spectre x360 - 13-4003dx for 6 months. The operating system is Windows 8.1 (64-bit). I use Microsoft Office 365. My laptop will freeze on me at least once every day either when I am outlook and more likely when I am on IE 11. Normally it happens when I am using Outlook 2013, iTunes (Just opened, not playing music, basically updating my contacts/calendars) and internet explorer 11 (I will have maybe 4 tabs open) and probably will have Word and Excel open also. IE 11 will be on let's say Amazon, and a few other pages but I am streaming movies or videos or music. I understand that is a lot of programs to have open but the laptop is i7 -5500U - CPU - 2.40GHz with 8.0GB of Ram. I currently am using 4.69GB. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I have recetly purchased this product. I tried a Dell active stylus 750 AAGN with it which did not work with OneNote. Writing with finger works fine. I have read that Dell should work fine, and the problem (at least on spectre x360 15) can be solved by updating a driver or firmware.

Oh what a wonderful day... brand new laptop... a HP Spectre x360 2-in-1 13.3" Touch-Screen Laptop - Intel Core i7. Got it at Fry's as a refurbishment. Got it home. Got it set up. Got all kinds of display problems after not more than a few minutes of operation. Why would I buy a refurbishment? Don't know... I'm thinking these computers with the touch screens and rotations are not ready for prime time. Returned it and got my money back. Not sure about the HP brand.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Video-Display-and-Touch/HP-Spectre-x360-Display-Problem/td-p/5588212
We purchased the laptop march of 2016. Last week we noticed a crack starting from just off center on top of the screen. The laptop has never left our home and has never been dropped or abused. We have 5 grown children and owned several laptops in the past, so this is not our first rodeo. The laptop performed well in all other areas so we were really disappointed that this happed. I can only imagine from the multiple posts on here, that this is a common flaw among this series. Shame on me for not researching it enough. Hp support would not cover the cost of repairs. I went ahead and paid the $210 to repair the screen. That amount will be nothing compared to the loss of future sale from our families and businesses. HP used to be a reputable name. Too badhttp://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Video-Display-and-Touch/Spectre-X360-15-quot-screen-cracked/td-p/5615051
The mouse on my hp spectre keeps jumping around on its own even when I'm not touching it. At first, I thought it was because my hand was brushing against the touchpad without realizing but I put it down and wasn't touching it this time, so I'm not sure what's going on. Basically, the mouse moves in circles and random things get clicked on and if I'm on any website, it starts scrolling up and down on its own. (It happens whether I'm using the internet or not so I don't think it's related to that). I've found that tapping the center on the bottom can sometimes fix it but can also make it worse. This is a brand new computer and I haven't heard of anyone else having this problem, so if it's a hardware problem, I can get it fixed/replaced if necessary.

Please help.http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Boot-and-Lockup/Booting-Spectre-x360-from-USB-CD-DVD-Drive/td-p/5723141

This morning I woke up to discover that my HP Spectre x360 does not sit flat on a desk anymore. It appears that the whole underside of the laptop has adopted a convex curvature, and the center of it contacts the desk below. My guess is that the battery is going bad and has expanded. Anyone else having this issue? Is there anything that can be done to fix this?http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/Swollen-Battery-on-Spectre-x360/td-p/5818954

I got a PM from someone on my car seat message board a few days ago. She had come across a Craigslist posting she thought I might be interested in. It was for 2 special needs chairs, both the perfect size for Charlie. They only wanted $100 for both!
Medicaid will not pay for anything until she's at least a year old and her seating clinic isn't even until the end of october, so I've been trying to get a hold of something that will support her more than her baby stuff (which are not only unsupportive, but also almost too small for her!). I've even been designing a chair, but by the time get it figured out, get the supplies, and get help making it, she'll probably already have gotten her chair! I called the local SN preschool, but I'm still waiting for a call back and who knows if they will even have something to loan us!
So I get this PM. And it is almost too good to be true! This is just some random stranger on a message board, willing to help me get these chairs and even ship them! I told her I was definitely interested and gave her my number so she could call me if she had questions. I got a call later that night. She was right there looking at them and she thought they looked pretty roughed up, mostly just dirty. I told her it would be her call since she could actually see them and could tell if they were even salvagable. She said she'd call me back. So 20 minutes later she calls me. She talked them down to $50!!! And then she took them home and cleaned them up. How awesome is that? We figured out how to collapse the KidKart and she fit them into boxes and gave me an estimate on shipping. It's going to be a little over $100 total. I still have to get the money out to her (she knew beforehand that Tim didn't get paid until thursday) but once I do, these will be on our way to us!
Thanks Mel!!!

the sausage factory takes over the blog! (again)
I'm Pip I'm 14 and today I've had my first experience of a proper Quaker business meeting. I can only say that it is an entirely new experience like no other I have ever had. We dealt with the issue of changing "Monthly meetings" to "area meetings" I personally dislike this idea because it removes a familiar term that is part of my everyday life but I do recognise the need to make Quakers a more accessible community to outsiders.
One thing that surprised me was that I have never experienced the Quaker method of decision making first hand, it has become apparent that while not exactly the quickest method of solving a problem it is very good at getting a well considered decision.
It was extremely interesting for me an atheist to find out how much the wider Quaker community directly refers to 'God', but this is just widening my horizons and perspectives. All in all i would say that Quaker business is a very interesting method of reaching a much better decision. Because it allows the minority to overthrow a majority if the level of conviction affects the 'Feeling of the Meeting.

Last night, Peckham Friends met for our usual Meeting for Worship. We're a South East London meeting who meet in my house once a month, and always follow meeting with a simple supper and a good chat. We're, in old parlance, a recognised meeting, with very little administration to keep us going. Some of us had been at BYM this year, and some were thinking of going. At least 3 of us in the room were expressing difficulty with sitting in BYM sessions and doing the business method well, though for very different reasons.
We talked about the two spiritual practices of Friends: meeting for worship, and meeting for worship for business. We were reflecting on whether it was important to practice the latter on small things so that when you came to discussing a big thing (like, in the 1990's, whether a meeting should celebrate a gay partnership with a formal meeting for worship), you were well practised at being open to will of God.
One insight we had last night which I found particularly inspiring was about Meeting for Worship for Business and how it's not just a process but a goal. So often Quakers get hung up on aspects of the process. For example, what to do if one person disagrees, and whether you can be in union with the decision but not support it - or indeed whether you can stand aside from the decision but not support it. Whether it is consensus building or theocratic, etc. But Paul said last night, that's not the whole point of our business method. It's also about what we get out of it - that through it we are in community with each other, and the wrestling with each other's views and coming to the will of God is a way of building a spiritual community together. Maybe it's obvious but we felt it wasn't often mentioned.
We have never had a business meeting at Peckham meeting but we thought we might go for one later in the year, once our Hearts and Minds group has finished, to consider how to strengthen the spiritual life of Peckham meeting. Thanks to BYM for stimulating our thinking.
