  • 500 - 516nc Pavilion: Pavilion that keep me from installing and running Linux

    Hello

    I recently bought the Pavilion 500-516nc with preinstsalled of Windows 8.1. I was intending to set up a dual-boot for the computer, as the seller claims that this machine is suitable for a number of operating systems.  However, I can't install and run the operating system I want.

    UEFI mode, the computer is not USB, or the DVD-ROM and does not offer to start from other sources, with the exception of the Windows boot loader, even after I disabled the 'secure' boot When I go to the legacy, I can actually run the other OS live USB or DVD and I can install it. However, the legacy would not boot from the HARD disk for some reason any (perhaps because the disc capacity is too large?). And I can't find a way to make the system work, I installed through legacy mode UEFI.

    I would not return the unit to the store, because it suits me almost all the other senses, but this issue is a big problem for me. What can we do about it?

    Best regards.

    No452, welcome to the forum.

    I ran the systems dual boot for years using Windows and Ubuntu, Linux.  The best way to do this, it uses two hard disks.  Windows do not play nice with the other OS' are on the same hard disk.

    That said, if you want to install Ubuntu on the same drive, here's a guide that should help you:

  • HP Pavilion 500-141ea: GPU for HP pavilion 500-141ea

    Hello

    A couple of years ago, I bought a HP pavilion 500-141ea, I am now looking to upgrade the GPU and the power supply on this subject. I want to replace the old GPU with a GTX 960 but I unure know if it is compatible with my motherboard because I'm not sure if it has the version of the bios that is needed to support the 960 GTX

    Information on the motherboard:

    MS-7778 (Jasmine)

    BIOS version: FRIEND 80.46 10/03/2013

    If it doesn't not work could offer you some suggestions?

    Thanks in advance!

    Madness 78, welcome to the forum.

    960 GTX requires UEFIin the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS / Legacy.  Your motherboard has UEFI.  You have two things to consider: 1) the power required to run the video card correctly and 2) the length of the card.  The power supply unit (PSU) to the count is 300W.  I think that you will need a minimum of 400W.  I recommend a block of power SUPPLY Corsair of at least 500W.  The modular power supply to reduce the number of cables you are using.  This allows for better air circulation.  You can determine if the card fits by the measure of the e/s rear plate at the front of the computer.  This will allow you to see if it fits and if other ingredients will be in the way of this Assembly.

  • Upgrade GPU on Qosmio X 500-11 G?

    Hey!

    I have a monster Qosmio X 500-11 G but a recent Simulator of the mine will not play right, there's no texture trully shown, all transparent. It's mainly because of my obsolete nVidia GTS 360 M, which does not support DirectX11. It looks that my Monster needs a graphics card brand new, that will easily support DirectX11 as GTX500 or higher.

    Any ideas how I can get a new GPU integrated into my Qosmio?
    Thanks in advance!

  • HP Pavilion 500-002ec: the HP Pavilion 500-002ec gpu upgrade

    Hello.

    I have a HP Pavilion 500-002ec pc and I want to replace the pre-installed gpu (Radeon HD 8570). I was looking at GTX950 and I have a few questions. I need more power for her? If so, how much more? And it is even compatible with current pc? Thanks for your replies.

    Hello

    If do the 950 GTX specific and model does not require a 6-pin auxiliary power connector then it should work. However, most of the GTX 950 require an auxiliary power connector 6-pin and the HP 300 watt standard power supply in your PC doesn't have that connector.  You would be obliged to replace the power supply or try the NVIDIA GTX 750.

    If you decide to stay with the GTX950 then I suggest you one of the following blocks that will give you a bit of room to develop and/or use a graphics card more large: Corsair CX500, CX600 or CX650m

    Be sure to measure to ensure that the graphics card fits will fit inside.

  • 500-312no Pavillion: GPU upgrade

    Hello
    I'm about to upgrade my gpu on my 500-312no, I think that i´ll to buy the "asus geforce gtx 960 strix 4 GB ' but I'm not sure if it will fit
    for now, I have gtx 750ti 4 GB in my computer

    Hello

    500-312no uses an external 180 watt of power (brick black) then you won't be able to upgrade to the ASUS 960.

    The HP OEM 745 is spec'd for your PC graphics card.  It is interesting to note that theNVIDIA 750is rated at the same power (55w) according to NVIDIA.  Most, if not all retail manufacturers specify a 300 Watt power supply.

    BTW - 7 x 5 cards are OEM and NVIDIA does not list a model 750 OEM.

  • the HP Pavilion Desktop 500-329 GPU upgrade

    Hello! I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade the GPU and the power supply of my

    HP Pavilion Desktop PC 500-329

    The GPU is a GTX 960 and the PSU is a 500W EVGA power.

    I read that I had to turn on legacy something with the computer with the f10 boot menu. I made this and just want to know if it's possible.

    Yes, you can upgrade, simply follow the recommendations of the manufacturer of the graphics card on the connectors and the power of the power supply.

    You have a PCI Express x 16 (Gen 3.0) card slot there will be plenty of choice for video cards.

  • HP Pavilion 500-141ea: GPU upgrade

    Hi all

    I'm new here, but hid for some time in the run up to the upgrade of my GPU.

    I am owner of a pavilion of 500-141 ea - spec/details here: here.

    I have had it for awhile now and have made a few casual games on it (Euro Truck Sim2) - it's OK at best, I am looking to upgrade the GPU to something a little better to improve the graphics. After absorbing as much information as possible on these forums, I discovered I obviously need a new graphics card, and as my current diet is valued at 300W, it would be best to stick to a moment PSU.

    Now, I've been watching the 960 GTX that seems a fantastic card but, for what I'm doing, I'm not sure if it's exaggerated.

    I turned to the GTX 750Ti after I've seen recommended by so many people. Including who I've been watching is the Asus version. Link. Looks like a solid GPU and fantastic value for money. I did some measure inside my case and think it "should" adapt, but as I am a novice I'm not sure, he would not blame on what whether 100%. It is the main thing that concerns me.

    For a power supply I was watching a CX500 Corsair, which should be more than enough for my needs at the moment. Looking at the ASUS card especially need a 6 pin directly from the power supply (from what I've read).

    I also read on UEFI/BIOS/settings issues so I'm ready for it to come when I update the map, but I'll post if I have a problem.

    So, I'm sorry for the essay, but I guess I want to know if anyone knows if the ASUS card would be and if the Corsair would be a good diet to use.

    Thanks for reading / your answers.

    Chris.

    CGD1, welcome to the forum.

    We do not mind trials because they give us the information we need to make good decisions.

    Here is the map of Newegg.  Normally, the thing that worries me cards dual fan is the length.  You want the card to fit and have lots of space for good air circulation.  This card is the perfect length.  Read the reviews to see what users have to say about it.  I also like the EVGA cards.  They have great Tech support.

    I love Corsair products.  The PSU you chose should work great.  The map in my link only requires 6-power connector additional.

  • Pavilion 500-420nl: installation of a new GPU in HP Pavilion 500-420nl

    Hello everybody, basically, I bought a HP Pavilion 500-420nl PC and decided to improve a bit with a new power SUPPLY and GPU. The new PSU: Thermaltake Berlin 630W and the GPU is Sapphire R9 270 X double-X OC. The problem is that when I insert the GPU and connect the 2 connectors of 6 pins, I get only a black screen. There is no beeps, the fan runs but the screen remains black. I deleted the old GPU drivers and the new one is plugged correctly, but there is only a black screen. The motherboard should be compatible with the GPU, seeing that it has a PCI-E x 16 slot 3.0. What could be the problem?

  • HP Pavilion 500-250la: is this GPU compatible with my computer?

    Hello, I was looking around on what I need to upgrade my computer, an HP Pavilion 500-250la.

    I would buy this GPU, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202137

    Is it compatible with my computer?

    And I was also told that I would need a new power supply. What kind of power supply do I need?

    @VicBoss

    I checked on the website of Sapphire for the specifications and I found these two pages, which have the same name and are the closest, I could find the name you provided. We have 2 cooling fans and the other has 3.

    R9 vapor-X 280 X 3 G D5 - http://www.sapphiretech.com (version 3 fans)

    R9 vapor-X 280 X 3 G D5 - http://www.sapphiretech.com (version 2 fan)

    Both recommend a minimum of 750 W power supply and both require 2 x 8 pins to THE power connectors, so you'll need improve your diet in order to predict that the two cards are also double wide and it will probably block of the PCI Express x 1 (Gen 2.0) locations on the map. I suggest you check the space inside your system, particularly in the area of your current diet to see how you have the room. Power 750W power supply (or higher) will certainly be larger in physical size.

    You have to watch a third party supply, as I am not aware of all that HP stock with this title.

    I hope this helps.

  • Pavilion 500-329: to upgrade my power supply for my new GPU

    Hi, I recently got and 660 GTX ti as a gift from a Guild mate. Unfortunately, the stock PSU is a potato (very) disappointing 300W. Who also likes to scream when I'm still so things like move my mouse. Wonderful innit!

    in any case, I've been shopping around for a PSU that could fuel at least my graphics card for the recommended specifications, 450w, unlike what is 240 R7 in the system right now, which is recommended to have 400w... And I managed to find one that meets at my expecations in size and power output.

    I just want to see if someone has comments on the sizes to enter in the case of Pavvy 500-329.

    Since your Canadian, I took the liberty of a few analyses available of the PSU.

    Your current system has a R7-240 which is inspired by 30W.  The GTX660ti attracts 150W.  The net difference is 120W.  The original power supply is 300W but it is a maximum.  You'd never see your car top SPEED!

    I would like to see you get a Corsair CX CDN 96,19 600W as your choice. Here are the specifications.   It's 80 + efficient power consumption curve and focus not on your system. It is also an RIGHT in your system.  If cost is a concern, then I suggest you step down for the 500W version.  It's 20 less CDN.  Its also an exact adjustment.

  • EVGA GTX GPU Pavilion 500-277cb 960 leave Sam's Club

    I'm interested if a graphics card in EVGA GTX960 (model 02 G-P4-2962-GOLD) can be added to a HP Pavilion 500 - 277cb of the Sam's club. I am aware that I needed to upgrade the power of 600w. My research indicated that the card had to be secure boot hp compatible. EVGA has confirmed that this card is compatible, but impossible to validate that it was compatible to the bios and card mother Memphis-S. It's the smallest graphics card so it must adapt to the Board and the inside of the case. This card will work? And what happens if changes would be to do?

    Hi there @apanpapan3

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, so many other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff. I understand that you are looking for information for upgrading the video card and the power supply to your computer. I'm happy to help you with this.

    Looking at the two video cards that you are considering, the 960 requires that a minimum of 400 w of power and the 970 requires a minimum of 970 w. The two cards are double-width, but the 970 is a little longer. Both use PCI Express 3.0.

    The system has however a 300W power supply, then of course you will need to level it and don't forget the replacement of the power supply has the necessary extra power connections, 1 or 2 6-pin connections must be available depending on the card.

    The current internal power supply also has the following additional parameters:

    My PC makes noise video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7_iULq8LgE

    The good news is that you can replace the fan. Look at this picture.  You don't have to remove the radiator.  The part number is displayed on the fan housing.  Browse the different examples, some show only the fan, which is a fan of type 4 son PMD. Do your research (because your to the United Kingdom?) and I can't assess the availability of replacement.   The RPM is a key factor. Too slow will trigger a full stop.

    Make sure you understand the position and rotation of the fan blades.  You do not want to install a new fan "toggled".
