Compaq Presario CQ5700Y: Need for greater power suply

I would like to install a 3d map of vidio capable in this computer. But the x 1 cards that I am looking at all require 300W for 400W power supplies. For example: the Radeon HD5450 1 x requires 400W.

My Presario has only a power of 250W. Can I replace the current power supply with a 400W power supply? Should what type of power supply I buy? Specifications for this PC online does not give details about that.

Thanks Dave. Actually, I found another post on the forum that lead me in the right direction.

I ordered a "Corsair Builder Series CX 430 Power Suppy".

  • Compaq Presario SR1619UK: Need to be able to provide information for installing a graphics card

    Hello, everyone.

    I have inherited a HP/Compaq Presario SR1619UK recently and think to install a new graphics card to replace the ATI Radeon Xpress 200 integrated chipset. What I need to know is this: -.

    I have searched all over the pages of the specification and support and can not find ANYWHERE, any information on the feeding on this model (output in watts) output.

    How much power do the PCI slots of power?

    I don't want a top-of-range for the games graphics card, or lots of work video (I'm in my early 50 years); what I'm after is a decent graphics, which will give me good screen resolution and behavior when you work with the Adobe PhotoShop & CreativeSuite. That's why I want to know what is the amount of power the power supplies supply actually... This is quite an old model, probably, it will provide no schedule for a graphics card powerful card... and this isn't what I'm looking for, anyway.

    Any help with this information would be much appreciated.

    Hello

    Open the PC and read the label on the power supply.  What is the total power? I suspect not over 300 watts.

    The site in the past has posted Adobe recommended and certified cards video for products Adobe.  Look at what Adobe has published.

    Study it released a Guide to selection of a discrete graphics card.

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/desktop-hardware/Guide-for-selecting-a-discrete-video-card/TD-p/1299011

    Features of the power supply are a slipperly slope. Rated efficiency will go down with age and power more old supplies are not very effective. Not all the PSUs being manufacutered are quality power supplies.  In addition, manufactuers video card take into consideration a lot of information including the many unknowns that might exist with PCs when they specify the size of power minimum recommended power supply.

  • Compaq Presario SR1320NX: need internet driver for windows 10 for my compaq presario SR1320NX desktop

    I already paid for and installed 10 windows on my Compaq Presario SR1320NX. But there is no driver from the internet. I can't connect to internet at all. Desperately need help.

    On the HP support site:

    Desktop Compaq Presario SR1300 series - retired products the following products have been removed and is no longer supported by HP. All official HP support for these products has been removed from this web site.

    I recommend using a usb wifi dongle which has Windows 10 support.

  • Compaq Presario 5400US - need network drivers for XP Home Edition. Wired connection.

    It woun't connect to internet using a good modem and cable (other PC connect successfully using this same equipment). When I type IPCONFIG, I get 2 results, one for Local Area Connection2 for LAC3. Two of them have 169.254.xxx.xxx IP addresses. Both Suffixes DNS blank and empty default gateways.

    When I go into network connections, the LAC2 says "Limited or no connectivity", but it lists a Linksys LNE 100TX Fast Ethernet Adapter. Linksys? I don't have any Linksys product. LAC3 says 'Connected' with the help of a WAN network driver. However, in the Notification area network connections has the same yellow triangle as LAC2. When I right click the icon in the Notification area and select "Repair" I always get the following ".." following action cannot be completed: renewing your IP address.

    If I right click LAC3 (the one that says 'Connected'), click Properties, click TCP. IP and select Properties, it is set to get an IP address and an address of DNS server automatically. It is also the same for LAC2.

    Client DHCP, DNS Client and call the CPP are started.

    I tried ipconfig/release, ipconfig/registerdns, ipconfig/flushdns, netsh winsock reset. When I run it ipconfig / renew I get messages (after he is sitting there for 2 minutes)
    An error occurred during renewal of the Local 2 network connection interface: unable to contact your DHCP server. Request timed out...
    An error occurred during renewal of the Local 2 network connection interface: unable to contact your DHCP server. Request timed out...

    A run chkdsk /r have run the command netsh int ip reset reset.log.

    So, I went 2 network cards, restarted in the device and removed Manager and let Windows reinstall. Windows creates a new connection to the Local network (LAC4, 2 and 3 are gone). It only reads limited connectivity or none and is using Linksys LNE 100TX Fast Ethernet Adapter, like the previous LAC2. The previous LAC3, who uses the network never got WAN driver reinstalled. I don't understand.

    Since an adapter Linksys on a wired connection seemed odd I have tried to find what should be the correct network driver.

    I google "Compaq Presario 5400US" "driver ethernet" OR "network driver" and was taken to a page of drivers HP, which I think makes sense since HP now owns Compaq
    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/s...UCT=93284#n430
    This page has nothing listed for network or chipset cards.  This, of course, has no meaning for me.

    Can anyone help?

    Select this version from the drop-down list on the link that I posted above.

    Depending on the size of file, it does not resemble an auto install file. Accept the agreement and unzip the file into a folder.

    So, download it to a folder and go to Device Manager.

    Click the network card in need of drivers, and then select manual search for drivers. Navigate to the folder where you extracted the drivers and the driver should install.

  • Install Windows 7 on a Compaq Presario CG61 - driver for HARD drive

    Hello everyone,

    because of my Compaq Presario CQ61-423SG HARD drive (series: edited by moderator) broke (and with it the recovery partition), I would like to install a new Windows 7 (home premium, 64-bit) on the new HARD drive.

    Initially the program is in need of a driver for the HARD disk installation. On the HP site, I can't find. Can someone help me? Where can I get a driver for my laptop?

    Thank you.

    Hello:

    I am very surprised that Windows 7 requires a driver disk for the model controller.

    In any case, I compressed upwards and tied the drivers you need (look under the line attachments at the bottom of my post).

    Now, here's what you have to do...

    Extract the files to a flash usb without all the folders drive.

    With the flash player and the installation of W7 media connected to the computer, boot from the installation of W7 media.

    After selecting the install now option, select the training - Advanced menu, Options and select the option load a driver.

    You should now see the storage driver files listed.

    If you check the box, it only includes the compatible driver.

    Follow the prompts and should install W7.
