Hello
I'm not too familiar with the hardware upgrades, so I wonder if a Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT 512 MB would be compatible with my HP Compaq DC7800 Small Form Factor?
Thanks for any help!
Hello:
Here is the link to the plug for the GeForce 8800GT...
http://www.GeForce.com/hardware/desktop-GPUs/GeForce-8800-GT/specifications
Certainly, this card will not work in your machine for two reasons.
1. he needs a power outlet extra that doesn't have food dc7800.
2. the draw of the power of the card (105W), is too much for the PCIe x 16 slot 25W prorated and 240W power your PC.
These PCs is designed for light desktop for administration.
If you want to add a video card, it must be a down a profile that comes with low profile brackets in the area.
I recommend the AMD HD 6450 or Nvidia GT-610 low profile cards that will work within the limits of the power supply of your PC has.

Hello:
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.

How to add SSD for Optiplex 755 (Small Form Factor)
Hi-
I want to add a SSD for my Optiplex 755 (Small Form Factor) boot drive while maintaining the HARD disk it came with and the player optical slimline. There is a SATA port on the motherboard, but there is no open Bay and not a lot of room in the chassis (I do not see a power open cable).
Anyone know how or if I can add a SSD to 2.5 inches to this machine? Would need a power splitter? And it's even bothered to improve an Optiplex 755-10 Windows?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Adding a drive in the optical Bay is possible. But you cannot run without the original hard disk on the desktop SFF and ULTRA-COMPACT models.

You will get an error message on the thermal characteristics of the drive.

Compaq DC5800 sff: compaq dc5800 small form factor 4 monitors
My machine is a Compaq dc 5800 small form factor. Running windows 7.
Wondered what would be the best way to get four monitors to work on this machine. Different programs of 4 separate monitors 4 on each of them, what graphics card should I buyto achieve?
I have a usb to vga thing that might work for a monitor, so this means that I need a chart of small form factor card that can work 2 or do I need one that will run 3. I read that once you install a graphics card, you can't activate the onboard graphics in the bios. I don't want to have this problem. Please help me.
Thank you
Here is the Manual:
You'll need a card video low - profile pci-e x 16. Even if you buy one with 3 outputs as a vga, one dvi and one HDMI usually you can only use 2.
And Yes, when you install an add-in pci-e video card, you will lose the integrated graphics card.
In order to drive the moire than 2 monitors you need a second video card, or a multiple display adapter cable. You have a pci-e available x 1 slot and there is such a thing as a video card pci-e x 1 like this:
http://www.Matrox.com/graphics/en/products/graphics_cards/m_series/m9120pluslpx1/
http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=9SIA4UB1J73800
Some of these x 1 cards actually have a quad cable optionally, you can add the display.
These are not for gaming but can run extra for things monitors as having walked fellow RSS site or desktop computers more available to work.

Compaq D530 Small Form Factor: Ram high density is not compatible?
What ram high-density compatible with it? I was about to buy high density 1 GB DDR400 PC3200 400 Mhz 184pin memory Ram 2.5V Fund, it warnings about the compatibility with because it's high density. I tried to look into the specs and found nothing. Could you please tell me if high density ram would be compatible with this model?
Thank you
Hello:
After having been the proud owner of 4 d530 once and maxing out each one to their 4 x 1 GB of PC3200 memory, I can tell you without hesitation that memory high density absolutely does not work in this model (or any other Office HP by the way).
You need non - ECC, unbuffered, low density chips.
Use the crucial memory analysis tool to see what chip they have which is compatible, because they guarantee compatibility.

Hi, Shawn:
Vista HECI and AMT driver should work for you...
HECI installs the controller PCI of Comms Simple and AMT install PCI Serial Port.
Sometimes drivers do not install by running the exe file, so you need to navigate to the driver folder and manually install drivers for each device.
