Just press the restart/start button on the laptop... Could you try the Kaspersky fix in safe mode ?

That is a known HP problem

04-04-2012 08:25 AM

For those out there who got the same problem like me:



I "fixed" the bluescreen by changing the bios settings for switchable graphics from dynamic to fixed. Furthermore I changed every setting in the ati control panel to high performance and switched off the switchable graphic option so that the computer just uses the external graphic card and I am only using the high power energy plan.



I didn't get a bluescreen since my last post...

First we will see if HP has updated the driver to stop the BSOD

Go to this site and download then run the driver manager
If that replaces the driver then it will negate the need to play within the BIOS
