Elite HP 170 f

I have a HP elite 170F and it has 6 slots of ram that came with three 2 and three 1. I want to exchange the three 1 with three 4 GB for a total of 18 GB of ram. I already bought one of the 4 GB at best buy but they have more in stock. I have two questions. Do I need to have three 4 and three 2 or do I need four 4 as the squad of geeek guy me to buy from the TSB. And what order they should go into the slots?

Jerport, welcome to the forum.

The motherboard has architecture memory triple channel.  Therefore, for optimal performance of the system, it is preferable to use three of each module.  I think the three modules of 4 GB in black locations and three modules of 2 GB in blue locations should work.  I don't know why he told you that you need four modules of 4 GB.  The Council worked with three modules of 1 GB and 2 GB three modules.

  • New graphics card for HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t

    Hi, I'm getting artifacts screen sporadically, Ithink my video card is starting to go bad. I want to get a new one, but I do not know what will fit. My computer HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t:

    • Intel Core i7 - 860 quad-core processor [2.8 GHz, 1 MB L2 + 8 MB of cache N3 shared]

    • LightScribe SuperMulti DVD burner
    • Player 15-in-1 memory cards, 1 USB, 1394, audio
    • No TV Tuner
    • Creative Sound Blaster X - Fi Titanium

    I see by a few other questions here several cards video suggested, but these responses were a few years old and these video cards are no longer available.

    So, any suggestions on the new video cards less than $200, which will be more apt to little and works as easily as possible? Thank you!

    OK, I got my new video card, to be exact of it:

    It works like a champ! Took me about 5 minutes to install the card physically and 15 minutes to install all drivers and updates.

    So far so good - everything seems OK, so if anyone is looking for a video card for this configuration, it worked for me.

  • Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t: problem with the new HP DH16D5S DVD ROM drive

    My office is a HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t.  I recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.  I have two HP optical dirives, one is a writer, and the other is just a DVD ROM  Both have always worked perfectly with Windows 7.  After you have installed Windows 10 continuous burner work very well works correctly with autoplay.  However, the DVD - ROM, HP DH16D5S, immediately began using autoplay.  Actually the drive was not yet recognized as a drive when you view the drives in the file Explorer.  Finally, it would seem, sometimes taking also longer than 5 minutes or more before doing so and then would work very well.  I tried different types of media, including music CD, DVD video and DVD software with the same results.  I assumed that it was a problem with the drive, maybe a bad capacitor, etc., which was originally not start correctly.  So I ordered a new DH160D5S, but which seems to have been a waste of time and money, because it does exactly the same thing as the original.  I even changed the cables autour between it and the burner, but it made no difference.  The burner still works fine but not DVD ROM.  I tried to find a more recent driver for it, but had no chance.  I found on a Dell website for this drive which was an update of the firmware for Windows Vista and Windows 7, but not for Windows 10.  I advanced and downloaded, but when I tried to run, I got the message: "your system does not meet the minimum requirements for this update.  Update has been canceled. »

    I want to try a different brand of DVD ROM, but would have to buy one without knowing if it would help.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Since I posted this message I discovered that there is a driver problem with this DVD ROM.  There's no driver available yet to make the drive compatible with Windows 10.  Since then, I returned the drive and replaced by another brand that is compatible with Windows 10.

  • Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t - Wi - Fi adapter with antenna?

    I would like to connect to a desktop Pavilion Elite to a local network. The router is a Linksys EA3500 (802.11n technology). The distance between the router and the wireless adapter on the desktop will be about 30 feet with walls between the two.

    The office doesn't have an outdoor antenna. When I checked for network adapters, I found this: Realtek RTL8168 / 811D Family PCI - E Gigabit Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.20).

    I use the computer for HD, movies, not for games. Should I buy a Wi - Fi adapter? And if so, which one of these adapters Linksys would give me better performance?

    Hello:

    I have the AE3000 on two of my HP business offices.

    It has good reception and never had a problem with either of the units.

    I have a 2-story house with a finished basement.

    My Linksys EA 4500 router is on the second floor.

    One of my desltop of PC's in the basement.  The AE3000 on it, you get 4 bars of reception on the 5 GHz band and 5 bars on the 2.4 GHz band.

    Connection speed is 324 Mbit/s (out of 450) on my PC of basement on the 5 GHz band.

    Connection speed is 216.5 Mbps on bandwidth 2.4 GHz because I have this band the blended value that allows (wireless B and G) to connect legacy devices.

    It works fine on W7 x 64 and x 64 W8.1 (using the drivers W7 on the CD).

    It also comes with a 3' USB cable attached to a docking station so that you can position the camera somewhere for better reception.

  • Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t: need help with the result of a command prompt to Power Options

    I have recently upgraded to Windows 10 in Windows 7.  Like so many thousands of people, I problelms of sleep mode.  Mine will not be auto-sleep.  It has been suggested that I saw to run command prompt: powercfg-applications

    It supposedly will list the items running on your computer which can now be auto-sleep to work.  I tried several times and up to now, I get the same item displayed each time.  This is what is displayed: \device\harddiskvolume2\windows\sysWOW64\svchost.exe (hpqddsvc) is followed by this message: a file delete operation is underway

    My first thought is that if there is an operation to remove file in progress all the time, it's maybe the reason why my computer is not auto-sleep.  If there is someone out there who can shed some light on this situation, I would appreciate the help.

    EUREKA * SOLVED

    I found the answer to my problem!  After using the control system: powercfg-query and get the answer: \device\harddiskvolume2\windows\sysWOW64\svchost.exe (hpqddsvc) delete file operation is in progress

    I started looking for whatever it is associated with the answer above.  In the Manager of tasks in respect of the services, I found the name of the file hpqddsvc, with a description of HP CUE DeviceDiscovery Service was running.  When I stopped the task and re-tried in opt power standby mode, it worked correctly.  In the Configuration of the system (by typing msconfig at the run prompt) on the Services tab, I unchecked the box for HP CUE DeviceDiscovery Service and rebooted the computer.  The service is no longer running.

    I'm sure that this Service has been added to my computer when I downloaded the hp.com/support product detection tool .  The tool scans your computer to detect and identify HP products.

    This can be useful to others who have the problem of the auto-sleep I've had.

  • HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 has Desktop PC - graph disc flashing - Normal?

    Hi all

    I just bought a http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01969875

    and I was wondering if the orange graphic of 3 discs piled on each other in the right upper part of the façade of the tower is supposed to flashes and turns off all the time?

    Or is it telling me that I'm supposed to do something?

    Hello BigBad64, while I'm not familiar with your system, the light you describe indicates the hard disk activity.

    Normally, that's fine because it flashes a little or even a bit, depending on what the system is doing at a given time.

    Even if you can not do anything, the drive hard activity can and cannot, turned on because of background running applications and services.

    There is also the possibility of Windows running the task of "Indexing", which is supposed to help with research on the system.

    I'd be too concerned about this, as there doesn't seem to be normal.

    I noticed that you mentioned that you just received this system. It was released in December 2009 for customers in Australia.

    This would be not for me either, just thought that it kinda weird that you have just recently.

    I hope this helps.

  • Should I have a WiFi card installed?

    I googled this to death and had an email back & forth with HP support and I'm still not the wisest. I hope someone can help with a definitive answer.

    I have a desktop PC HP Pavilion Elite HPE - 170 bought in Australia. The product say that there a "wireless card 802.11 b/g/n Mini PCI-Express half-length" installed.

    When I go to control panel > DeviceManager > network adapters, the present one is a 'Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller.

    If I try to download/install the driver for the wireless card I get the error message "your system does not meet the minimum requirements for this update. Update has been canceled. (9996).

    I'm not that familiar with that sort of thing, but all this does not seem to suggest that I don't have a WiFi card installed?

    I have to pull the sides the computer turned off and physically take a look? If so, where exactly?

    Hello:

    If you do not see the model of network card wireless list in addition to the wired Realtek card, it could be one of 3 things...

    1. you are correct and either HP forgot to install the card, or the card is incoreect.

    2. If you see a device listed as a network controller listed in the other devices category in Device Manager, then the wireless card is present and the drivers must be installed.

    3. the wireless card is installed but is defective as DOA, or PCIe x 1 adapter that holds the card to the motherboard is loose and has a bad connection.

    Here is the link to the service manual for your PC.  I have not your model, so I have no idea where to find other than to tell you that the wireless card will have a wire antenna plugged on it and it will be mounted in one of the small slots PCIe x 1 on the motherboard via a larger map.

  • Updated drivers or not?

    Hello

    I have a one year old, HP Pavilion Elite HPE - 170 a desktop PC (Windows 7) in which I've recently updated the graphics card for games. I keep its driver updated regularly via the Nvidia site.

    Should I update the drivers of other PC however, particularly the Realtek audio driver, if the pilot online various software update (Driver Alert, Driver Boost, etc.) tell me that they are up to date? Or is this a case of "if it's not broken, don't fix it"?

    And what are the reliability of the results of the software update to match new versions of driver on your PC in particular?

    Realtek advises on their website download page you should download the latest High Definition Audio drivers from the website of the manufacturer of your system/motherboard, not them.  This Web site lists, for the most part, only the original drivers.

    And to add to the confusion, the function Windows Update in my PC device manager tells me that everything is already updated.

    This all came because I am about to install a Logitech 5.1 on my PC speaker system.

    Any advice? Thank you.

    Natton, welcome to the forum.

    It is a matter of concern that many members to share with you.  When updating the driver for the components of the computer?  I normally update the driver as soon as there is a new one available; especially the video driver.  There is a reason for the update, even though it may not be relevant to my computer.  Unless the component is older, I've never had a problem with the new driver.

  • Superior experience of Office Elite x 3:10 third-party Windows applications not (Windows Mobile 10)

    One of the reasons why I bought the X 3 elite was the attractive option to use it as a PC. I quickly learned that this meant. Not like a PC Windows 10. but rather A Windows Mobile format on the larger screen. A PC or a desktop experience would be for me means the use of many Windows 10 applications and set third-party apps.

    Hello

    Elite x 3 uses the mixture of Microsoft function to view the applications on your screen 'big screen '.  Since this feature is part of Windows Mobile 10, only some applications Windows Mobile 10 will work Continuum.
