HP's QuickPlay v2.0 - Page 31

post #601 of 910
Let try to explain what´s going on in my isntallation...
I renamed my DVDROM to X: drive letter, and in the installation of QuickPlay, it creates a 1GB partition. rename it to X: , and copy all the files of Quickplay.
When you restart the computer, the installation finish in the MSDOS mode.
I only rename my DVDROM to Z: , and the installation finish sucefull!!!

If somebody have the same error code that mine ( -2147418113 ), try to do this, I thinks that´s will work!!

Yeah, the Windows Quickplay works in exactly that manner, but QP Direct jumps from 0 to 10, with nothing in between. So the 10 volume is basically inaudible, in fact, I don't think I can hear it at all. I'll investigate that further with a good pair of headphones. It does this whether I use the remote, the buttons on the laptop itself, or try click on the volume icon with the mouse. Also, I got the latest update through QP Windows, but this doesn't have anything to do with QP Direct, and to my recollection, it did this before and after I updated, so it shouldn't be an issue.

If I try reinstalling again, are there any particular steps I should take other than simply deleting the partition and reinstalling? Thanks again.

I found that the QP Update does in fact update the QP Direct installation, sort of. When I first did the update, I thought like you that it just ignored the Direct installation since it was not auto updated. It's been awhile since I did it, but I think what I had to do was force the Direct install to not Resume from Hibernation. Hit the F8 key while starting QP Direct to bring up the WinXP menu and select Delete Restoration, or something like that, then it actually says that it is updating the QP files.

As for reinstalling, nothing to do except delete the partion and rerun install. (actually, you could skip the partition delete, but why bother..) It really is a self-contained install so it ignores everything except the install files (and some registry entries which guide the installer).

One thought process for your troubles is that the installer has to figure out which machine you have so that it installs the correct video and Audio drivers. I guess it is possible that it is selecting the wrong machine type.

What is your System Board ID from the Bios screen? Should be 4 characters like 30AE.

Well, I checked out the board ID number and it's 30B2. I also verified that I'm pretty sure no sound at all is coming, as I used a good pair of headphones and I couldn't hear a thing.

I'll check out the stuff related to updating and reinstalling this weekend and see what happens.

Thanks again for all your help.

Installing QuickPlay Direct 2.x on Vista

QuickPlay Direct 2.x can be reinstalled on Vista. You'll need to burn a DVD of SwSetup before wiping the factory load. I'd recommend creating the Recovery DVDs so you can safely remove the hp_recovery partition as well. Leave the QPD partition alone or leave space for it during the Vista installation (although Vista can resize partitions!) Also, the QPD partition MUST be the 2nd primary partition, so if you are creating multiple partitions make one primary, and the rest extended/logical.

After installing Vista, go into Disk Management. If necessary, create a 1GB (1028 MB) primary partition and format it NTFS. Assign the drive letter X: to the QP partition. That's the trick. The HPQPDP Setup can't create the volume, so you have to do it, and it has to be X:

Run \SwSetup\HPQPDP\setup.exe. If it bombs with a ComponentMoveError, there's something wrong with the X: drive (wrong letter or not formatted?). If setup completes, the X: drive will disappear. Restart and the machine should boot into QPD to finish setup.

FYI, QuickPlay Direct 2.0 is 100% compatible with the Vista's MBR. These steps should also work on any version of XP.

I got it after recreating the QP partition from Vista.

Boot to windows, open disk management, and assign a drive letter (I used X to the 1GB Quickplay volume. Enable "show hidden files" and "show critical system files" in folder options. Browse it from explorer and see if there are any temp files taking up space. If there's a (hidden) hiberfil.sys, delete it. When you are done, remove the drive letter from the volume so nothing messes with it.

I updated my fix for that, because you CAN'T assign a drive latter after QPD install completes.

Hi. I was looking at a Compaq laptop at a store which had Quickplay for Windows, and liked the UI (Especially its simplicity). Unfortunately, I have an Acer Laptop. Is it possible to install the Quickplay Windows Software (Not Direct) on it? If it is, will everything work?

I have 2.3 in there now, I'll add more if people request it. I have 2 terabytes of bandwidth a month so hopefully you all can't swamp it. Happy downloading.

Same thing happened to me with every source I downloaded from. If someone can get me a good set I will replace them, Sorry...
post #615 of 910
sorry to tell you guys, the quick play 2 is for the new notebooks, i. e if you did have the restore cds for a newer note book say dv8000, or dv9000 series, it would not work be cause it would not detect the newer style quick play button unit, and yes you would have to erease the boot drive, make a 1 GB partion, then the software restore would make the date/os partion and the restore partion., and yes the quick play software is a mini linux install, sorry
