DV6 - 2173cl: how many NVidia - HP dv6 - 2173cl graphics card drivers

Hello

I am trying to reinstall win7 64 bit on my dv6 - 2173 cl.

I see that HP has two pilots for the my model:

(1) Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD Driver

(2) NVIDIA GeForce video/graphics driver

I have the NVIDIA graphics card in this laptop.

I installed the NVIDIA driver.

Question:

-Do I need to install the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD driver as well?

-Is the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD Driver for the onboard graphics for some choose dv6 - 2173cl variants and therefore does not apply to me

OR

-This driver improves the graphics performance of the chip Intel itself (whatever that might be) and so I have to install it?

I looked at the description, but HP is not very explicitly clear cases when to install this driver.

Any ideas?

Thank you

Hello:

HP puts all the drivers available for the complete series on each specific model support page.

So you do not and should not install the Intel graphics card.

It would be for computers laptop dv6-21xx that come with the integrated Intel HD graphics card.

  • nVIDIA GeForce Fx 5500 256 MB AGP Graphics Card Drivers for Windows 8 Pro 32-Bit

    Hi!, I have motherboard ECS P4M800Pro M2 Ver2.0, 2.2 GHz E4500 processor Intel Core2DUO, DDR2 533 MHz 2 GB RAM hardware with WINDOWS 8 32 Bit operating system. The motherboard has 64 MB S3 UniChrome Pro IGP.

    Further to have better graphics during the game, I bought recently NVIDIA GeForce FX 5500 256 MB AGP 8 x video card. Since I installed this card, windows has installed its driver game by default "Microsoft generic display drivers" and the quality of the graphics is off nominal. Also the 1366 x 768 resolution widescreen is currently not available. The best resolution I have now is 1024 x 768. In this resolution, the graphics of Windows seems very strange on my LG 19 "widescreen monitor.

    I tried to install the graphics card drivers on the NVidia site for the old version of Windows, but the drivers are installed with an error message "Pilot" not Compatible with this Version of Windows.

    By default windows drivers has release date older than the drivers supplied on OEM for Windows XP.

    Please help me to get the drivers for the AGP card compatible with my Windows 8 Pro.

    Or how can I force install the older drivers in Windows 8.

    Hi Amit,

    Windows 8 compatibility reports that NVIDIA GeForce FX 5500 graphic card is compatible with Windows 8. Check out the link

    You can check if you have downloaded the 64 bit version of the graphics driver rather than 32-bit.  It could be the possibility for this error message.

    Or select the option on the Nvidia site to scan your system to find the correct driver?

    http://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

    If you still receive an error message that the driver is not compatible, then you try to install the driver in compatibility mode.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Program-Compatibility-Assistant-FAQ#1TC=Windows-8

    If this does not help, I suggest you check with the NVIDIA support.

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!  I understand that you are having problems with an update of the graphics card.  I'm happy to give you a helping hand with this.

    Looking at the map you want to use: GeForce GT 710 specifications, it shows the following: Minimum System Power requirement (W) 300. This means you want to preferably a power supply in your computer that exceeds this amount, just to be sure.

  • [p7-1240] How can I find out what graphics cards will work with my motherboard?

    I recently went through the nightmare of trying to install a Gigabyte GTX 650 in my PC. After a few days of struggle and scouring the internet for answers, I discovered that it is not compatible with the BIOS on my motherboard, and HP does not update the BIOS. I returned the card and is now seeking a new, but I'm not sure what card works now, since my computer meet the requirements of system for the graphics card and it stil ldid does not work. Because the GPU manufacturers do not list the specifications of the BIOS under system requirements, how can I know if a graphics card will work with my system?

    My computer is a p7-1240 with a 520W PSU upgrade and approximeately 11 "of space to install the card.

    Thexn, welcome to the forum.

    The problem is a lot of video cards latest require the computer to have a complete UEFI BIOS.  HP began using one in mid-October 2012.  Before that date, the BIOS is the legacy.  This is why the video card does not work with your computer.

    I don't know what you would spend on a card, but MSI is a GTX 750ti which is a VBIOS hybrid.  It has a switch to change to inheritance or UEFI.  Is there a video link directly below the image of a card.  Paul of Newegg gives a complete description of the map.

    I like the best EVGA cards.  Their Support gave me a lot of information on their cards.  However, you will need to return to a GT 640 map to find one of their cards that does not require the UEFI BIOS.  They have a few updates for their BIOS' are which solves the problem, but we must call them for accurate maps.

  • Pavilion dv6: ATI Graphics Card not included

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 I bought end of 2010 (see specifications below) with 'Intel core i5' card 'ATI Mobility Radeon Premium Graphics"included (just like the stickers on my machine ad).

    However, the other day I was certainly a bit stupid, I'm an irritable person, but I decided to download updates for my ATI driver on the AMD Web site. However after a few days later so I found that the card had ceased to operate, disappear from my device manager and my CCC catalyst has stopped working. After some research, I decided to uninstall my AMD Catalyst stuff (practically everything what I downloaded the other night was included inside), which automatically chose my graphics card for the "Intel(r) HD Graphics" card which is really bad as I play on this computer.

    I tried reinstalling my ATI card via the AMD Web site but nothing actually installed other than directories and I also tried the Recovery Manager that doesn't work anymore. I decided to uninstall AMD Installation Manager to erase everything which AMD button and try to get help here online.

    Here are my features of laptops:

    Family Premium in Windows 7 (x 64)

    Intel (r) Core i5 CPU

    HARD DRIVE 500 GB

    4 GB RAM (8 GB of RAM now after a recent upgrade of RAM)

    1 GB graphics card (ATI Mobility Radeon Premium graphics, the card that does not work)

    A big thank you to anyone and everyone who can be useful, I would really appreciate it!

    Thank you

    Brendon

    Thanks for the information.

  • HP Pavilion dv6-6c53cl Graphics Card Upgrade!

    Is Hello possible that I can replace and update the graphics card for my HP Pavilion dv6-6c53cl? I would like to play some of the newer games on the market, but the graphics card seems to be holding back me. If it's not a way I can replace it, is there a way to make this point without physically replacing the part?

    THANKS IN ADVANCE

    Hello

    No, you can't, "Intel HD Graphics 3000" is welded to the otherboard. In fact, you can change the video card on almost all laptops.

    Kind regards.

  • HP Pavilion dv6-6099el graphics card driver

    I own a HP Pavilion dv6-6099el laptop, I bought about 1 year and a half ago, and I've upgraded to Windows 8. In fact when buying the Pc it was suggested an upgrade at low prices to Windows 8 for only 15 euros. Now, I got Windows 8 a few months and I have achieved a notable reduction in fps while playing video games and have consequently run evaluation tests. I discovered that I am currently using my intel GPU because my Radeon graphics card is not the driver, so I searched for it, but a Windows 8 for my graphics card driver has not been released, I urge therefore HP to publish an update driver for Windows 8 or I have to replace my laptop relatively new

    Thank you

    At any time.

    I hope that you will get the driver works correctly. Please post back and let us know if this driver works for you.

    You can also try this another version of the driver and see if it works better.

  • HP pavilion dv6 - 6163cl graphics card driver for windows 8.1

    Hello world.. !! I just upgraded from Microsoft Windows 8 Professional to Microsoft Windows 8.1 Professional, everything is fine except the display. The graphics driver is not installed after installing fresh Windows 8.1 Professional, although it worked perfectly with Windows 8 Professional. I use hp Pavilion dv6 - 6163cl Entertainment Notebook PC. Operating system is Microsoft Windows Professional 8.1 (64-bit). 6 GB of Ram and processor 2.3 Ghz. I tried to install Graphics Card Driver for Windows 7 64-bit, but it says "not a version supported." I did not go to the graphics drivers for Windows 8.1 for my PC. Help, please...

    Thanks for the reply and useful links. I downloaded the correct driver from the related city, it was for windows 8, I installed it and it gives the display a more sharp than before installation, but it was not as cool and sharp as it was in Windows 8 pre-installed. The text and any other presentation does not look much sharper and stronger as it should. so waiting for a new version of the display driver Windows Pro 8.1. Please answer and mention it in a link as soon as it is available for download.

    Cordially said.

  • Pavilion dv6-2155dx: graphics card update

    After taking my laptop in a repair store (to explore a possible faulty HDD), they have installed Windows 7 Ultimate (originally I had window 7 Home Premium 64-bit).

    Now, I'm running in the error messages on the charts during the installation of games or even playing preloaded games like Solitaire - especially on the accelerator and 3D.

    Device Manager says I "Standard VGA adapter".   When I go to the screen resolution > advanced settings, tab troubleshooting shows acceleration to the maximum end of the scale.   Chiptype BTW: Intel Ironlake Mobile 8 8-bit.

    The original sticker on the laptop says that it was preloaded with Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD.    When I go to Intel, they have drivers GMA by download, but suggest using pilots of specific manufacturers.  When I check for the drivers to support. HP.com they show two graphic drivers for this laptop, NVIDIA and Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (no series #)

    I downloaded and installed the version of HP Intel GMA.  Upon restarting, I got a black screen of death after Windows Welcome.   I rebooted in Mode safe mode and restored to an earlier point, so I'm back where I started with the Standard VGA adapter.  (actually tried this twice, same results)

    Is the Intel GMA at HP correct it / compatible with the download version?

    Do I need to uninstall the VGA Standard before installing the GMA?

    Also I notice problems with control of the mouse and the slider: he is nervous and seems to be a hair trigger.  Maybe this related to problems of graphics card?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi there @vpbob,

    Thank you for your answer!

    At this point, I would like to start by hardware testing to ensure that the graphics card and the hard drive working properly. If there is no hardware failures than to move on to other steps. If there are questions and missing then it is material that needs to be replaced.

    I look online to see if there was anything I could miss out there on the Internet for troubleshooting. I found a forum on the Microsoft Web site that can some assistance.

    You can try a factory restore partition, but it may not work. The partition is perhaps already damaged because operating systems have already been switched back. You can order the recovery media and use instead.

    Another problem could be that the drivers from the HP website are not installed on your laptop.

    When you go into the Device Manager is there one or two graphics drivers?

    Do you see unknown devices in Device Manager?

    Even if you had taken to repair already and you still experience problems, you can always take the laptop back their and give them all the drivers in the computer correctly for you.

  • NVIDIA Geforce GT640 good graphics card for PrE10 despite the bandwidth low memory?

    Can anyone confirm that the nVidia Geforce GT640 is a reasonable graphics for first 10 Elements and Photoshop Elements 10?

    The person who set up my office of 3770K Core i7 with 16 GB of RAM at 1600 mHz installed map GT640 nVidia with 2 GB memory DDR3. He said that it was a good (low cost) card for video editing because it has 384 CUDA cores - very useful for video editing. I'm pretty ignorant on graphics cards, but as the power consumption low, 65 watts and deemed cool temperature resistance. I have read since DDR5 memory would have been much faster due to a higher bandwidth memory - say 80-90 GB per second compared to 28.5 Gb per second for DDR3 memory on the GT640 map. I've been after use of economic power. DDR5 memory cards use 110 watts upward and run a lot hotter than the DDR 3 cards, all other things being equal. Really fast cards require a special power and cooling.

    Does anyone know if the bandwidth limited memory is important in video editing? Speed is much more critical in the game than in video editing? Are other attributes such as 384 hearts CUDA, synchronization of nvenc, dedicated encodment, 28nm architecture Kepler, frame buffer of memory 2 GB, 1.3 billion transistors, many units of texture - more important than bandwidth memory in video editing? Limited by memory bandwidth DDR3 affects the image quality?

    I read that the GT640 would be much faster (producing the best image quality?) as the HD4000 integrated Intel graphics processor Core i7 Ivy Bridge. Is it so?

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and all programs are installed on a SSD 120 GB OCZ Agility 3. My data drive is a 1 to 7200 RPM Seagate SATA 3. I have a nice 21 inch ASUS LED monitor and recorder blu - ray LG vs228n.

    I did a lot of editing with PrE 3 with a desktop Dell 3.06 gHz hyperthreading and Win XP. The output and even control the preview was clear and stable. I'm continuing to capture a mini tape dv standard definition of a 3 months Panasonic handycam FireWire, but plan to upgrade to HD 3MOS to flash memory. I do really small control - about 7cm wide - PR10 screen, because the quality of the preview image is much poorer than the quality I experienced with the first elements 3 with Win XP program. This is just an indication of the memory gain in pre 10 previews? I expect the output to be much higher, although still mpeg2-DVD quality until I update my camera. I put the record on the maximum bit rate.

    In any case, despite these reservations with the quality of the preview, the GT640 seems very well on stage. Quality of the image in Photoshop, and online on my computer is excellent.

    I updated the driver nVidia yesterday to version 306.23 display.

    Almost all graphics cards forums are subject of the game. I hope to see more forums on graph editing here.

    What do you think of the 2 GB nVidia GT640 for editing with 10 pre-Photoshop Elements 10? How about image quality in the pre 10 monitor compared to the quality of the production? Quality of the image in the monitor of the PrE 3 sharper and more stable, because I imagine?

    Regards, Phil

    Premiere Elements is not chart-map-dependent. You should be fine. In fact, finer.

    I went to very difficult to leave my boyfriend to buy this pc.  First of all, that we now live in different countries.  I live in the United States and he lives in England.  We met on a PS3 game online called DUST 514 and played a lot of pc games together as well.  It is difficult to have to steal it back, but we're getting married soon and I'll come to England.  He needs a new PC for years and was jealous of my Alienware Aurora R4. So I decided to buy one that is still better than mine since it's even greater player I am . This will also allow us to play more games together .

    Then I he wired the money and thought that everything would be ok, but you wouldn't believe the amount of screw - rises, that Dell threw on him!  They had even cancel a bunch of commands of the peoples, b/c, trying to control his spec-ed on Alienware has revealed a major screw-up affecting many clients... (Sorry, it made me delete/modify-this until his order passes through.  Dell representatives were concerned about what happened past.  I don't know if they told people that they had to cancel the real reason why orders and the possible impact on customers with currently Alienware Aurora...  I'll tell you what they have done after that his order is finally through.  Just a hint... inside your Alienware Aurora, check if you own to make sure that everything you ordered is actually there...)  He tried to do this for a week now...  I thought Dell was a little better than that... I knew they had bad grades, but really?...  In any case, it is a complete system stressed mess of it all back and on phone calls and e-mails with different people of Dell.  So I thought that, if it still manages to get the Alienware, maybe I can do even better!

    He really should have an SSD, so I'll get a. He was talking and drool on the maps of Titan, so I'll give him two EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Superclocked 6 GB GDDR5 2DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort PCI - Express cards in SLI config! : http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-06gp42791kr

    I've never built a pc or tinkered with all hardware.  I want to make this even more impressive pc by adding an SSD.  I think I can install an SSD without any problem (I want the Samsung 849 EVO Mz-7TE1T0BW 2.5 "1 TB SSD)... Oops... I just thought of something... 4 TB SATA is actually 4 2 TB SATAs, put in place with 2 as the mirror...  I think that there are only 4 connectors for extension for SSD/HDD... Is this correct?  I have to replace one of the SATAs 2 TB with the 1 TB SSD?  What configuration I would define then the three SATAs 2 TB?  Would it be to say that he would have only 1 TB SATA? Could I set up so that it has SATA 1.5 TB (with SATAs split with half active and part of the half of the mirror for a RAID configuration)?  Furthermore, I have really no idea what RAID is or fact, just that you only half of total storage really active and the second half is as a backup in case of failure of a disk or something to avoid any data loss total... It is also the thing that I'm confused about that I don't know if it is also possible to install two graphics cards of Titan in SLI configuration on the micro ATX motherboard, I guess its Alienware Aurora will be, and still less 1 Titan.  Yes I know it is exaggeration lol, but the game is very important for us, especially since this is how we met.

    Sorry for the long post... Finally, the MAIN POINT & QUESTION:

    I have to install a different motherboard like the Asus Rampage Black Edition IV: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-motherboard-rampageivblackedition in order to install two Titan GPU in SLI configuration?  If so, how this O_o...?  Also, I heard that there is a 'girl' Council that controls the Alien FX LED lighting and ventilation Active... How to connect to the new motherboard (if I need to get a new one)?  Also if I get the other motherboard (if this motherboard work with everything) this motherboard would have space for 4 x 2 TB RAID 1 + 0 and the 1 TB SSD SATAs?

    Please answer.  Thanks, ~ value

    to install two Titan GPU in SLI configuration?

    Don't know why you config-ed with two years 780 in SLI if you want two Titan-SLI but this guy did:

    http://en.community.Dell.com/Owners-Club/Alienware/f/3746/p/19512935/20402844.aspx#20402844

    Personally, I'd keep just 780 - SLI, since the two configs end up being very similar to the performance. Either they're going run hot (in the game of max.).

  • How do I know when my graphics card must be upgraded on my mac

    After playing mine craft game on my Mac version 10.10.5 my Mac keeps freezing some mentioned it might be that my needs to date with a driver graphics card how do I detirmine if you need the driver for my graphics card and if so where can I download it and it is normally free thank you

    If the product worked before to ensure that the proponent supports your operating system, and that you run any Anti Virus, the management or the 'guard' software on your computer. If so uninstall it completely.

    If the problems persist drag your settings in the game. As lo-res that is Minecraft, it's actually a very complex program requiring the GPU, RAM and CPU to function effectively.

    Commonly Windows users for Mac users point to the sellers for GPU drivers as Windows GPU providers can develop their own drivers and Apple is more control is the following and almost always provide their drivers in the House, not a seller.

    To update the graphics drivers for Apple, computers are obtained through your Apple's OS X except the Mac Pro 5.1 (2010), Pro 4.1 (2009) Mac and Mac Pro 3.1 (2008) models using OS 10.10 AND using drivers Nvidia graphics processing unit (GPU). If you do NOT these particular Mac models, or that you do and for some reason you have AMD/ATI GPU these drivers are of no use to you and update your drivers that you need to update the OS for GPU updates additional if Apple actually update.

    http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/78853/en-us

    You can check the AMD site to see if they have something similar to this on their Web site, although a search on the web.

    Minecraft CUDA are not used so the CUDA tools are of no use to you if you see whatever it is labelled CUDA.

    to determine your model mac go to the Apple Menu and select about this Mac...

    However where it is the driver if you have a partition Windows or Unix you can start to, you can run Minecraft in another operating system on your Mac and get the drivers on the developers site that will allow you to play the game outside of Mac OS X. drivers for Windows or UNIX will have no effect on the GPU when it works under OS X
