HP's site asks for the "product number," which is a bit worn and hard to make out. I tried to find out if there was a trick to it. The closest thing I could do was wait for boot to fail and press F2 to access a menu with 3 diagnostic options for testing memory, hard drive, etc. I could not enter any kind of BIOS Setup menu to find the product key. The product key is built into the BIOS, I know that it's not a straightforward process to reinstall Windows 8.1 - I do have a Windows 8.1 install disc that I made many months ago, and I'm told the product key will determine which version (Pro, Home, etc) installs. Though I don't see any stickers, I'm pretty sure it has an AMD APU. It has a tiny little battery, but it's not exactly a netbook because it has an optical disk drive. If you need bios settings, it would be handy to have a Win 8 util to dump those to a text file.ĭon't I need the bridge adapter so my guest (Ubuntu) can reach the internet? I'd like to update some packages and install some Perl modules on the Ubuntu guest.A coworker needed me to replace a bad hard drive in an HP 15-d074nr "notebook." - that's in quotes because the weak internal hardware seems more like a tablet than a notebook. I never had a problem before installing Virtualbox.Try "sleep" mode, which doesn't completely power down PC, come out of sleep mode, and internet works fine.When I come out of suspend, there is no network connection to the internet, even after waiting 5 minutes. My keyboard puts PC into suspend mode, where the memory is written to disk, and the PC is turned off.Installed Ubuntu 14.04.1 server this time (it's smaller and does not include the desktop)
