• Clean the OS install on HP Compaq dc7800p CMT - which drivers/software for HP?

  Gentlemen.

  I decided to first try the road at low prices and to order a recovery disc Vista professional instead of a copy of Win7 for my HP Compaq dc7800p CMT with Intel Core Duo E6550 2.33 GHz processor, 1 GB of DDR2 800 MHz RAM and HARD drive retail 80 GB sata.

  I'll have to download drivers and software from HP and there is such an astonishing array of software available for this model I don't know really what to download and what I can let it slide.

  This is designed to be a professional computer maintained by computing professionals, but I just want what he as a general-purpose computer "ordinary".

  Now I tell myself that I should get certainly all drivers because they are strictly based on the material and will also apply to my needs to those of the original unit office drone was designed for. I just discovered, in cases where there is more than one choice of material, what advice or feature of this particular machine has to obtain the correct driver.

  But sometimes to wonder if, as Vista will be installed on a HP reinstall drive, has the disc still a library of drivers HP to replace the more generic drivers that can come from a MS retail disk, which makes it unnecessary for me to download drivers HP. I doubt it, but it is best to ask.

  The BIOS is less obvious. I think that there is a BIOS version that is newer than the one currently on this machine (786F1 v01.04). I've heard several philosophies on the BIOS updates: one is, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it. " Just replace the BIOS if there is a problem (s) it might lessen. The other school says you should always have the latest version of everything, even if it not is not the current problems. So, should I get the latest version of the BIOS?

  I have no idea what ' ME ' designated operational entities and firmware if I should worry about this.

  Also less obvious is the software designed for increased security, seamless integration with an enterprise network and generally make it easier for the IT guys earn their salary. I don't know what, if any, utility most of these things would provide in my situation. If there is no hardware on the system which would "complain" If a particular piece of software was not installed, then for the stability of the system, I do not want to have even if I never use it.

  I know I ask much, here, but Paul Tikkanen in response to my initial post on this computer, mentioned a few BIOS settings that may be to my advantage. I'll use these suggestions and all that more that can take this machine more pleasant to work with my circumstances.

  Sorry... Just one thing. The descriptions I've read of this computer say she a dial-up modem 56 built-in of k, but it is referred to as a 'soft' modem It applies to a sort of virtual modem that exists only if the driver for it is installed? When I ran HP Insight Diagnostics, a sort of device LAN has been entered, but not modem. I have a dial-up modem, believe it or not. I just downloaded the SP3 for Vista and it took about 21 hours! Ridiculous, but it prevents me from wasting time on the cat and pornography videos.

  Thank you for your interest!

  I'll have to download drivers and software from HP and there is such an astonishing array of software available for this model I don't know really what to download and what I can let it slide.  There is a page of software and the drivers of the computer.  You can install all the drivers on this page.  If the driver does not need to be installed the system will tell you.

  This is designed to be a professional computer maintained by computing professionals, but I just want what he as a general-purpose computer "ordinary".  Here is the technical reference Guide for your computer.  It has all the information you might need.  In some sections, it has all the models listed.  Just look at the CMT.

  Now I tell myself that I should get certainly all drivers because they are strictly based on the material and will also apply to my needs to those of the original unit office drone was designed for. I just discovered, in cases where there is more than one choice of material, what advice or feature of this particular machine has to obtain the correct driver.  As I said above, the page of the software & driver will tell you what it takes.

  But sometimes to wonder if, as Vista will be installed on a HP reinstall drive, has the disc still a library of drivers HP to replace the more generic drivers that can come from a MS retail disk, which makes it unnecessary for me to download drivers HP. I doubt it, but it is best to ask.  Yes, the majority of the drivers is installed during the recovery.  You need to update the drivers.  You can run Windows Update to get updates.

  The BIOS is less obvious. I think that there is a BIOS version that is newer than the one currently on this machine (786F1 v01.04). I've heard several philosophies on the BIOS updates: one is, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it. " Just replace the BIOS if there is a problem (s) it might lessen. The other school says you should always have the latest version of everything, even if it not is not the current problems. So, should I get the latest version of the BIOS?  My theory is, don't update the BIOS if it does not solve a problem you are having with a component.  A failed BIOS update makes a good door stop.

  I have no idea what ' ME ' designated operational entities and firmware if I should worry about this.  Firmware is the software that tells the operating system do with a component, as for example a drive opticlal (CD/DVD drive).  Windows Update can also be found for you,

  Also less obvious is the software designed for increased security, seamless integration with an enterprise network and generally make it easier for the IT guys earn their salary. I don't know what, if any, utility most of these things would provide in my situation. If there is no hardware on the system which would "complain" If a particular piece of software was not installed, then for the stability of the system, I do not want to have even if I never use it.  Most security software are not a necessity for the system to function properly.  However, it can be a problem if you have a virus or malware.

  For a video card, I recommend the AMD Radeon HD 6450 half-height card, which works perfectly with the 240W power supply in your PC.

  Make sure that you get one that includes low profile brackets in the area.

  Memory... you can install a maximum of 4 x 2 GB memory PC2-6400 for your model if you are running a 64-bit operating system.

  I have used this brand in my dc7800 CMT.  I bought 2 games and maxed out.

  Processors... Mine came with the E8300, so I didn't change that.

  Here is the link to the quickspecs for your PC.  You can find taken processors supported on page 9.

• Can I clean the hard drive before installing Windows Dell & as I've heard doesent clean properly. And how to clean the drive of DART?

  Can I clean hard drive before installing Dell Windows 7 / as I have heard it is not clean everything properly. So how to clean the hard drive?

  Or can I restore my office before you install Windows 7 in the first place when it's new?

  Kind regards

  Bert Pooler

  Yes, you can restore the State as it was when new...

  Your computer is equipped with a recovery instead of disk partition...

  This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

  For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

  You may need to try several times to get everything above to work. If after several attempts, you have no chance, or the machine indicates that there is no recovery partition, your only option is to contact the computer manufacturer and ask for the model recovery discs...

  After the reset, you should get all the updates from Windows Update EXCEPT for hardware devices. Then, you install a good antivirus. ONLY AFTER you have done this, if you replace the stuff of backups or install anything else.

• HP Compaq DC7800p Convertible: Fan never works at high speed

  Well Hello hp. My question is that I have the hp compaq dc7800p with intel q35 chipset. I also have the intel core 2 duo e6750, who comes to 66 without high-speed fan spining. I checked, the site of intel, that it is said that Tcase is 72 C I also have the problem with the chipset, there too big temperatures when you play. It goes up to 80 C. What I would do. Should I change cpu fan or don't start high speed at 70 ° C and for the chipset how cool up to at least 60 C, I have the normal aluminum without cooler chipset. I play the games are battlefield 3 and 4 and yesterday my pc freezes, and when I rebooted funs went at full speed, but nothing showed on the screen for 5 minutes, is now well, fortunately, but I all wory to much.

  Temperatures look ok so far.

  -In addition to being very energy efficient - Core2Duo processors have built-in thermal protection.

  If ever they come to high temperature, the frequency is decreased. If temperatures reach critical CPU turns off.

  Chipsets get usually a little hot under load.

  80 ° C is still about 25 degrees below criticism.

  What graphics card you have?

  As far as I know, feeding in these machines has only about 360 watts, which is not enough for some high power graphics cards. It is most likely the reason why your PC freezes. Video games cards consume not only a few watts, they also generate a huge amount of heat under load.

  Anyway, there are two things you can do:

  First, go to the HP Support and get the dc 7800 manual.

  Uninstall the CPU cooler and apply new thermal paste (don't forget to clean the old one).

  Then, increase the speed of the fan slowed down in BIOS F10 for better air circulation.

  Reformatting a hard drive should be considered a last resort to solve a problem with a computer system. The hard drive can be reformatted and reinstalled the operating system, using the system PC Suite hard disk recovery. Reformatting the hard drive will overwrite all data on the disk. To preserve the data, back up the data of the user as; letters, leaves of calculation, graphics and emails to an external storage device before you reformat the disk.

• OS for HP Compaq dc7800p Convertible Minitowers boards

  Gentlemen (and the occasional Lady).

  I just bought a minitour Convertible HP Compaq dc7800p computer on the cheap.

  From what I see, it seems almost not modified from its original configuration. It has an Intel Core Duo E6550 2.33 GHz processor, 2 GB of DDR2 RAM, a 80 gig HARD drive and DVD read/write.

  HARD drive appears to have already disappeared completely - not even a left system recovery partition - so, no OS.

  I ran HP Insight Diagnostics on it and everything passed the comprehensive test.

  Now that I am fairly confident that it will work properly, I need to choose an operating system. It comes with Vista Business and I can get a replacement from HP for $11.00 drive. I don't know what service packs, where applicable, the hot spare. This would be a factor because I am limited to 56 k modem and these service packs would take a loooong time to download. But, all things being equal, I'd rather have Windows 7 Premium. The problem is that all things are not equal! A copy of Windows 7 is around $90,00 of distributors such as Tiger Direct.

  I'm accustomed to Windows XP and have never used later versions of Windows. It is popular wisdom that Win 7 is greater than Vista in many ways, but it is $ 79.00?

  I want this computer to take over the online activities of my XP computer because XP is more dangerous. I'll keep my XP machine and put any contact with the outside world when I'm pretty confident with a new OS. The HP machine will not be called to lift heavy objects - but that could change over time, as the HP is easy to upgrade.

  Given the description of my situation, it would be more prudent to get Vista Business on Win 7?

  Extended support for Vista is scheduled for completion in 2017, where I would then face the same problem that I have now with XP and I would find myself looking for a new OS once again. Win 7 will be supported until 2020. In the coming years a new version of Windows will be better than Win 7 to the point where I don't want to change operating system before 2020? This HP computer will be obsolete before then as to makes it unusable?

  There are a lot of these questions without reply. The essential is that I'm a good sobbing market and I eventually get more for my money on a copy of $11,00 of Vista or $90.00 for Win 7?

  Beyond that, I have other questions, but I'll fix it in another post. I went too long in this one!

  Thank you for your interest!

  Hello:

  I have a dc7800 CMT (E8300 processor) that I bought for my wife and upgraded to W7 because I got an upgrade to W7 pro I used no license.  I installed 8 GB of PC2-6400 memory and use a graphics Radeon HD 6570.

  I have for all of Vista Business 64 bit recovery disc to restore the original operating system should I decide to donate or resell the PC some days.

  I had the other dc7800 CMT (processor E6850) for my mother and order the recovery disks Vista Business 32 bit for it.

  Now, you can have a choice of the floppies to install Vista Business 32 or 64-bit.

  The set of recovery disks you get should have included SP1 (mine do).

  Then you will just need to DL SP2.

  It was the first thing I did once Vista was installed before that I made another anytbing to download the Setup file of Vista SP2 Standalone directly from Microsoft.

  If you do not ever plan on installing more than 4 GB memory, then the set of 32-bit recovery diskettes will suffice.

  I put 4 GB of memory in the PC of my mother because I had 4 x 1 GB of PC2-6400 memory, laying around.

  Windows 7 is a better operating system.  I call it "Vista that works."

  But really the main differences are:

  1 Vista seems to use more memory to run than W7, so more memory, you can throw to Vista better it works.

  2. the disk defragment tool seems to take forever to work.

  3. a few other minor quirks which I was able to use a few settings to make it better.

  I have used many of the settings on the link below and my mother PC works fine on Vista Business 32 bit.

  http://www.thewindowsclub.com/make-Windows-startup-run-Shutdown-faster

  I have disabled Vista Disk Defragmenter and use free Auslogics Disk Defragmenter that works just great.

  If I don't have a W7 license for use, I would have been perfectly happy under Vista Business dc7800 of my wife.

  I run Vista Business on an old notebook nc6400 and it works very well on that too.

  Then... IMO, I have just spend the $11.00 and go with Vista. If you like it, then you have saved $ 90 million.  If you have not, you buy W7, and you may have professional Vista recovery discs use one day as I want.

  A few final thoughts on the PC in general...

  1. make sure emulation sata in the BIOS storage section is set for RAID and IDE not.  RAID will be performing hard drive because it can take advantage of the native command queuing in RAID mode and it cannot in IDE mode.

  Many of the dc7800 are used in enterprise environments and have been downgraded to XP Pro. I would not be surprised if a large number of defined system IDE controller administrators when they set up their corporate images, because if they understand not drivers SATA RAID/AHCI necessary necessary in their corporate images for this and later models, their image it not install if the BIOS is set to RAID mode.

  It is the only native command Queuing does.

  http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Native_Command_Queuing

  2. set the boot order to boot from the hard drive first.  Who's going to shave a fraction of a second startup time.

  You can always press the F9 key at the beginning of the HP welcome screen to boot from another device.

• Noise of the extraordinary fan on HP Compaq dc5000 SFF

  I used the same HP Compaq dc5000 SFF to work for several years. It has an eccentricity that can be infuriating: if I'm the scene work processor, the fan goes into overdrive and in a few moments, I feel like I'm in a 757 taxiing on the runway at JFK airport.

  I wonder if this problem may have been treated by a BIOS upgrade. (To my knowledge the BIOS has never been modernized.) In all cases, these machines are very common in my office and I have yet to visit a person using one that is familiar with the level of db fan I meet several times a week.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you.

  Hello:

  Here is the link to the BIOS for your PC release notes:

  http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en & cc = us & prodTypeId = 12454 & prodSeriesId = 403745 & swItem = ir-63382-1 & prodNameId = 403747 & swEnvOID = 1093 & swLang = 13 & taskId = 135 & mode = 5

  None seem to approach a noisy fan.

  I open the case (after such normal precautions that unplug the power cord, etc.) and look for the dust clogging the fins of the heatsink and fan blades. If there is dust, it is most likely the culprit causing the fan spinning upwards.  Use a can of compressed air to clean the dust from your PC case.

  If it's clean, then I guess the thermal interface material between the Processor heatsink the heatsink of surface has dried and you do not have a good heat transfer between the processor and the heat sink (your processor is overheating, but not thermal breakpoint).

  The repair is to remove the heat sink. Remove the old thermal paste from the heatsink and processor apply new thermal paste and go back.

• Should I clean the sensor before mounting the new lens?

  Hello guys! Sorry for stupid question, but I'm not sure I know the correct answer. One of the devices that I use is Canon 5 d classic, and there a lot of dust on the sensor and the viewfinder (not unusual for 5di). I just got a new goal, and I wonder if there is a possibility for the dust on the sensor/viewfinder to get inside the lens while filming? Or I have to clean the viewfinder/sensor before mounting? Or just forget to dust as will evertually get inside the lens of dust? Thank you! I appreciate your answers!

  Good advice so far...

  1. you don't have to worry about the use of your lens on the camera. The goal is pretty well sealed against dust, so all the dust that's in the mirror in the camera box is unlikely to migrate into the lens (it is more likely to migrate on the sensor, but even what is low risk). There is no such thing as completely dust free a lens, anyway. A few grains of dust inside a lens have virtually no effect on the images.

  2. you probably should take advantage of your membership CPS to have the camera, cleaned and checked.

  But you can also learn how to clean yourself. Some call it the classic 5 d a magnet 'dust '... Just, I think he's got a big sensor dust get on and does not have a self-cleaning feature because is on later models. It's going to get dusty again, you can bet. So at least you might want to get a blower bulb ("Rocket Blower" is a brand) and learn to use it.

  You probably already know, seen in the viewfinder of the dust is usually harmless. It is usually on the mirror or on the focus screen and will not be displayed in the images taken with the camera (unless she manages to migrate on the sensor itself, which is hidden and protected behind the shutter with the exception of the brief moment when an image is rendered).

  If the dust seen in the viewfinder appears sharp and in short, it is on the focus screen. If it is fuzzy and blurry, it's on the mirror. Unless you know how and have the right tools for the job, it is not a good idea to give the focus screen and nothing more aggressive than a breath of air from a blower bulb mirror. These can be cleaned more thoroughly, but both are very easily damaged: the screen is optical plastic and can be ruined by using the right type of gasoline on it. The mirror is before coating aluminium vaporized, so is very easily damaged. Aside from an occasional breath of air from a blower bulb, I recommend to leave the mirror screen and concentrate only until you have done a professional cleaning.

  A more serious problem to monitor does not light seals. There are seals foam around the edge of the focus screen, which builds the mirror upward against when it is triggered, to keep stray light out of the box mirror during exposure. Over time, these seals foam begins to degrade and may throw particles or even coat of glue holding them in place on the mirror screen and focus. In general, clean up the damage, remove the old and install new foam gaskets are a little tricky, so I recommend that you have any replacement of the foam seal done by a professional. (Also, there are foam seals similar elsewhere inside the camera that are likely to need replacement too, if the joints in the mirror box go wrong. A pro will know what is needed and have the skills to work deeper inside the camera.)

  Time does not always have to send a camera in for a simple cleaning of the sensor, so it's something that you can learn to do it yourself. There are two sites that discuss good detail: www.cleaningdigitalcameras.com and www.copperhillimages.com. The first is maintained by independent, professional camera repairmen who also are providers of the repair industry and sell most of the specialized tools and supplies needed for the cleaning of the sensor. The second part of the merchant site one of special cleaning procedures ("Copper Hill Method"). Both sites have good information. Read them carefully before performing any cleaning yourself.

  If you decide to learn how to clean the sensor yourself, some things you need to know...

  Never use a q-tip common (i.e., "Q-Tip") inside a camera. They throw cotton fibers that can enter and jam of delicate mechanisms.

  Check the manufacturer's website you plan any liquid sensor cleaning aid is formulated and approved for your particular camera.

  No matter what digital camera that has never had the sensor cleaned almost always need a "wet" cleaning first. This is because there is almost always oils on the sensor (actually in most of the cameras the surface to be cleaned is a filter which covers and protects the sensor). These oils are excess thrown out of the shutter mechanism. Any method of "dry cleaning" that touches the sensor will coat oils and make things worse. If a "wet cleaning" is always advocated, first time around.

  It is important to have some the aircraft batteries fully charged before cleaning and work quickly, so that to be able to hold the mirror up and the door is open doesn't work low allowing the shutter to close and the mirror to fall on a tool used for cleaning. Professional cleaners often use a continuous supply instead of a battery, to be sure.

  It is convenient to have a magnifying glass Magnifier and light any for easy cleaning. When you view the sensor at the front, don't forget that the image is upside down and reversed. Thus, for example, if you have seen a job in the corner upper lefhand of your images, when you view the sensor directly you will find straw incriminated in the lower right corner.

  You usually have a variety of tools to do a multi-step cleaning...

  "Fan bulb cleaning' to blow the free particle outside ("Rocket Blower").

  "Wet cleaning" with approved optical and fluid swabs from cleaning to remove oils and the particles more strongly respected ('Copper Hill method kit', 'Pecs Pads", 'Pécs swabs', 'Eclipse' solution) of sensor cleaning.

  'Adhesive cleaning' using a slightly sticky surface take off slightly adhered particles ('Dust Aid').

  'Cleaning antistatic brush' stubborn Claire, remaining slightly adhered particles and to reduce static electricity that attracts dust ("Arctic Butterfly").

  "Deleting individual speck" with a reusable precision tool ("Speck Grabber").

  "Final Polish" always is a last step to remove the haze left by gasoline ("by LensPen sensor pen"). It also helps to discourage the dust sticks to the surface again.

  I've included a few brand names of the products in parentheses as examples. There may be other equally effective products.

  Most of the time I find myself with several or even all of these when I do a cleaning of the sensor.

  See you soon!

  Thank you.

  I had the same problem.  Mine was up here an easy solution.   Right-click on the taskbar and display the properties.  Check hide them icons inactive and click Customize.  I had multiple entries in the items being passed, including volume control icon.  Remove the elements in the item passed I have no idea from whence they came.  I ran MicrosoftFixit50015.msi (a Windows package install).  Then re-checked the past again and all elements had disappeared or been corrected.  SEEMS this file or box on the PC has become corrupted.  I changed the control volume on always point display.  Also, I went to control panel and sounds and re-checked the volume icon to Place in the taskbar.   Rebooted the system and has worked for me so far.  Good luck!
