so have people had success with the vista drivers? i have not.

i have only used the h version and that one has been great to use...
havent seen the need to update (especially with drivers... unless they are in the realm of sound and video)
i believe this is what you want to see in the device manager...

while i have a tx2500 and i can say that i *need* QL since that is the only way it will recognize the rotation (tablet wise.....)
try this link..

And the buttons work just fine if you install the driver.

Strange, my computer doesn't have that driver listed anywhere.

Well now, no wonder I never saw it, its very sneaky, hiding at the end of the keyboard thingy mabob.

I was always looking for Quick Launch or HP Quicklaunch, not HP QLB.

You can grab all the software you need for Win7 for your HP laptop using the Vista 64 Enterprise or Vista 64 Business support links at HP.

On my laptop (69xx series) I need the Quick Launch buttons as well as HP's version of the sound driver (otherwise the volume buttons don't integrate properly), even though Windows Update has "newer" versions of both.

Windows update has them though not 6.4 H2. You can grab them from MS Catalog here Microsoft Update Catalog

You will need to use IE to access the site.

Thanks, great to find it there.
It was suggest on windows update when was on build 7100 x86, but it had disappearing from there on build 7137 x86.

just had to remove "64" for a 32bits search.

The mute button on my HP 8710p turns orange every once in a while then turns off again by itself

I tried a few different QuickLaunch driver versions, inc. the original Vistax64 for my model, however the issue persists...

Anyone aware of a fix for these issues yet?

Or, do we simply wait patiently for HP to fix this?

Humm, the best is to wait a new version of QuickPlay.

On 7100/7137 HP drivers for quicklaunch are working (only for the sound control). Quickplay has an issue with tray control, so i guess with the buttons bar launch either.

I also had a problem with the QL buttons not working on my HP dv6646 and then when it did start working the orange lights did not work I did the following.

Here is my Quickluanch Solution:

1. go to HP Support & Drivers
2. Enter product number (ex: dv6466)
3. Choose either/or:
» Microsoft Windows Vista
» Microsoft Windows Vista (64-bit)
4. Find HP Quick Launch Buttons driver updates

*** Notice there should be 2 updates (at least for my PC and my friends)

5. Download Oldest Driver First
6. Before Installing Driver , Right Click on it and go to Properties and change compatibility to Windows Vista (SP 2) ... then Install.... Reboot... Test
7. If this does not fix it or works but the buttons don't light orange Download the newer driver listed on the site listed above. Also before Installing change the compatibility again.

I have tried this on multiple HP's and this is the only way I have seen it work if it does work, it only seemed to work when the older driver was installed first and then the newer last.

Note that this will only fix the Quicklaunch and not the Quickplay ... but quickplay sucks so who cares

Hi Greeneggsam,

I tried your solution but it did not work for me. My HP model is dv1135ea and the QL button problem still persists. I have sound but the quality is very poor as it is only coming from the sub-woofer and not from the Left and Right speakers. The mute button is constantly in orange color, while others are white. The mute button comes on as white while windows is loading but before windows finishes loading a cracking sound comes from the speaker and the mute button changes to orange and stays that way, even at that it still mutes the sound when you press it.

Do you have any ideas how I can resolve this issue?

Hello Daysey, You should create a new thread for this, mine (this thread) is over 4 months old.

Why are so many old threads being dragged up lately?

Its a form of necromancy steve ... fear the darkside .... you could also ask that the thread be closed...

Oh wise one, how do I accomplish the task of closing it?

 

[Tews]

Use the report button ... next to the rep button ... ask that thread be closed...

Thank you YupYup

Worked for me on Win7 x64

 

[Roni]

What worked, Shuls?

You said thanks to Yup Yup, and that it worked for you. What exactly worked? I have Win7 x64 and would like to download and install HP Quick Launch Buttons 6.40 H2 for Windows 7, which I uninstalled from my Vista system before upgrading to Windows 7. Were you able to do this? If so, where did you go to download it? Thanks!

 

[Shuls]

Greetings Roni;
As YupYup suggested, I downloaded the driver from the Microsoft Windows Catalog. It just the driver installation without the application so you won't get the exclamation mark on the Device Manager.

Hope that it helped,
Shuls
