Add dvd drive Pavilion 500-047cb
All - I was wondering if anyone knew how to add a player of DVD (SATA) to this desktop machine (500-047cb flag)? I read through the owners manuals and see some info on upgrades, but I don't see anything about adding a disc and how this could work since I don't see an extra door on the front of the box. Thank you very much! BH
You probably have the same Pavilion cabinet tour, like I do, and he has only a Bay 5.25 "and one 3.5 internal" bay. You should be able to replace the existing DVD player if you want to upgrade (for example on a BD player).
The only alternative if you want to add a second DVD drive is to get an external type and connect it via USB.

Alternatively, you can refer to the following manuals:

Pavilion 500-018: BD/DVD player not working not not on a pavilion of 500-018
Hello
I have a 500-018 Pavilion on the Bluray/DVD driver no longer works. The drive is detected in the BIOS but Windows 8.1, I can't access the drive at all. The drive is listed as a BD - ROM drive. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but it doesn't help.
I tried the diagnostic tool to sequentially play a DVD the disk and it says to insert a disc, even if there is already a disc inserted.
Any suggestion?
Thank you
Gilbert
Probably more likely.
The probability is the laser that scans disks disappeared, so unfortunately for you I think that you might have to buy a new optical drive.

Thank youHi @Fraser11,
Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support. I believe that since the departure of the power supply in your Pavilion 500-076ea that your hard drive is no longer detected. I am convinced that I will be able to help you find a solution, and I ask only that pay you it forward. When solve us the problem, I would mark you kindly post as accept as Solution so that others have the same or similar problem can find what worked for you.
Please use the document of replacement of the power supply HP and Compaq Desktop PCs as a checklist to make sure that nothing was missed when you have replaced the power supply. From my experience, most of the time when this error occurs after the replacement of the power supply there is a cable that is not properly plugged.
Please let me know the results.

There is no computer HP desktop with W7 drivers for the hardware on your PC.
This means that you are going to the Web site of the manufacturer of each component for pilots shopping and I hope that get you lucky.
Driver chipset. First, install and restart. Must install the smbus controller.
Ethernet controller: download and install the driver 4th on the list. I hope this works.
Network controller:
Use this driver for the Probook s 4540. They put the cards wireless laptop to desktop

Pavilion Slimline s5-1020: DVD drive not recognized in Device Manager
My rarely used DVD player no longer works. Here are the things I have seen/made:
-J' updated to Windows 10. It may or may not have stopped working before the update.
-I update Windows automatically, and everything seems to be in order there.
-The DVD seems to be operational, insofar as you can hear it turn when a disc is inserted.
-Setup recognizes, and it is enabled; It is not at all in Device Manager or in the file Explorer.
Based on the things I've tried, there are indications that it may be either a hardware or a software problem (or both?):
SOFTWARE PROBLEM?
I followed these as much as possible:
http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03370738#c03370738_NoDriveWin8
http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03370738#c01895589_resetpower
http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/desktop-CD-DVD-read-only/read-this-for-CD-DVD-drive-with-burning-Missin...
-I got disconnected/reconnected the drive.
-J' tried various DVD I knew to do.
-I don't have to update the BIOS, given warnings.
- Nor did I mess with registry filters.
-J' tried to find a Microsoft Fixit solution, but the one referenced somewhere in these pages don't apply to this OS - I think it was for Win 7. I tried MS Control Panel convenience stores, but none of them worked.
So I can't say whether or not it is a software problem.
HARDWARE PROBLEM?
-J' have set the boot on the CD order in configuration and the desktop with Windows 7 HP Pavilion system repair disc - nothing happened, he went straight to the HD (even if I had turned off). So that leads me to believe it may be a hardware problem after all.
Do I have other options at this point, except maybe buy another drive? And in fact if I do, it is possible that one does not work either?While you are not alone in this problem, here's a thread that deals with her.
See if that helps

HP Pavilion 500-321: graphics driver constantly crashing and recovery
Hello
I've been instances make more frequent accidents of graphics driver. The message I get is:
"Display driver stopped responding and recovered."
Display driver Intel HD Graphics Drivers for Windows 8 (R) stopped responding and has successfully recovered. »
When this happens, the screen goes black for a split second and then everything goes back to normal.
It happens every time I play games, demanding or not (could be just Agari.io, for example), or simply to Watch youtube videos. When you play a little demanding games, even with low settings I know my chipset is capable of processing, it happens rather frequently.
I have a HP Pavilion 500-321 with an i5 CPU 4750 and 4600 Graphics Intel Intel chipset on Windows (64-bit) 10. The driver installed is Windows and the site of software & drivers of HP, the last (10.18.15.4271).
Any ideas on the way that it can be and how to solve?
PS: I've done several resets factory and same charges 10 Windows installs, so is not a solution for me.
Thanks in advance.I think that I managed to solve the problem by forcing the installation of the original drivers for my Intel graphics chip. I downloaded from the Intel Web site. HP would not let me do this through the Windows Wizard or through installation of Intel software, so I did it manually after some research.
I have not seen the error message in more than a week now, not even when playing a bit demanding games, so I think it's safe to say that the problem has disappeared and that the problem is HP drivers in Windows 10.
I hope that you are able to pass it along so that HP can work towards a solution, if they are not already on this subject.
Thanks for your help and attention, Sunshyn.

HP Pavilion p6210t DVD/CD drive is not recognized after the upgrade to Windows. DVD/CD material is: LightScribe16XmaxDVD + / R/RWSuperMultidrv. I can't find an updated driver for this device, download and install. Thanks for any advice you can provide.
Thank you for your response. I can't find somewhere - it now despite a lot of research - I read on a very simple solution to this problem which is (was) affecting hundreds of users HP. In essence, the solution said that the DVD drive has in fact been recognized [as evidenced by his appearance in the BIOS] but has been "identified" and how to fix this problem was to go into the DEVICE MANAGER and delete the incorrect identification reference - then restart the computer and Windows 10 would correctly identify the DVD player and correctly in the DEVICE MANAGER list. I decided to try this simple fix before one of the more complex solutions that were offered. The simple solutioon worked!

Pavilion dv7 cannot recognize the CD/DVD drive, no help support "assistant".
Subject says it all. Since I got this machine, it had problems when the CD/DVD drive becomes invisible and are not accessible by any means. A reboot has solved in the past, but now, it doesn't seem to work more. I would like to reinstall the drivers, but guess what, I don't know what kind of player, it is (funny how that works), and Support 'Assistant' is apparently ihcapable to understand the model of this Pavilion dv7 ("product name: loading...") ("now until the heat death of the universe), which does not help either. Anyone has a better idea than just blindly install the drivers?
Hello
Drivers for CD/DVD drives comes with Windows (IE with the operating system - it is not the drivers you need to download). The driver is located in C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\cdrom.sys.
First, try the automated Microsoft fixit at the link below.
Check if the drive works now.
If the drive does not, in the Start Menu, open Control Panel and click Device Manager. Click to open the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers. Right-click on the first channel and select uninstall. Do not delete if requested drivers. When uninstalled repeat the process for each channel. Also, if an ATA controller is listed, right click and uninstall it, once again is not removing the drivers if requested. Then, open the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drives. Make a right click the drive (if it shows!) and choose uninstall. Do not delete if requested drivers.
Restart the computer and let Windows reinstall devices. Check the disc again.
If it still does not work, re-run the fixit automated Microsoft at the link below.
Then, in the Start Menu, open Control Panel and click Device Manager. Click to open the CD/DVD-ROM drives. Right-click on the drive and choose uninstall. Do not delete if requested drivers. When the device has been uninstalled click the icon 'Search for hardware changes' (usually just below help in the toolbar). Let windows reinstall the disc and see if it works now.
Best wishes

Pavilion 500 adding hard drive
Bought a desktop Pavilion 500 computer last week. Kind of disappointed with the documentation that comes with it, also disappointed with the documentaion on this site, just seems to have two manuals supplied with the computer, PDF files (but, maybe I'm not looking in the right place). Nothing in the documentation provided with your computer that shows what the computer looks like inside, no info at all on the update of the computer (adding another hard drive - what memory?). I open the computer and take a look to see what is inside, but the manual says that if I open the computer and break the security seal I certify that the computer was working properly until I tried to upgrade the computer, and if the security seal is broken it could screw up my warranty. I think there must be space for another hard drive, but who knows. I would like to install the IDE of my old computer hard disk, do not know if this is possible. I know I can get a disk enclosure and connect it to a USB port, but prefer to install the drive in the computer (may be screwing up the warranty...). If an IDE drive may not be installed on the computer, as it is, maybe some sort of a SATA to IDE adapter or card would work. Anyone have any ideas?
According to respondents, this adapter converts IDE drives to Sata port.

Remove the hard drive and optical drive on HP pavilion 500-164
Hello
I was eager to build a new computer and was hoping to use the hard drive and the optical drive from the Hp Pavilion 500-164 to reduce their costs. I'm confused as to how to remove the optical drive, because I removed the two screws on the left and don't know how to get to the other side as it wouldn't come out. When you remove the hard drive, the SATA cable wouldn't come off, so I stopped here and would like some advice on how to remove the hard drive from its Bay.
Thank you
