HP 17-e118dx: upgrade the Wifi card in my HP 17-e118dx

I need to upgrade the Wifi card mini which is standard for the laptop 2.4 GHZ for Dua band 2.4/5.0 GHZ 802.11 abgn or alternative map. Is it possible to upgrade the laptop computer WiFi card so that he can be on 2.4 and 5.0 GHZ

Thank you

Hello:

You should be able, if your laptop currently has two attached to the wireless card antenna cables.

As your laptop has an AMD processor and chipset, you would be limited to the installation of a Broadcom adapter dual band Wireless-N with bluetooth, or a Broadcom adapter dual band wireless AC with bluetooth.

99% of the time, Intel wireless cards do not work on AMD platforms.

If your laptop only has a single antenna drive, you need to be willing and able to take the laptop everything hand, including the area of display panel, to run successfully a second antenna.

  • Replacing the WIFI card

    I have a Compaq NC6120 running XP I want to upgrade to Windows 7, but my WIRELESS card is not supported. If Im trying to find a WIFI card that works in my Compaq NC6120 with Windows 7 so I can connect wireless to my HP Pavilion Desktop which is running Windows 7.

    Any ideas?

    Hello:

    Not only the wifi card is not supported, but none are fully supported video card.

    I can send you the link to a driver that will allow you to change the resolution of the screen and have the graphics acceleration, but you don't have Windows Aero on a nc6120.

    I looked the cards available for your laptop supported in the maintenance manual wireless and chose this card as being compatible with Windows 7:

    Hewlett Packard Part # 381582-001 Intel 802.11 B/G WM3B2200BG.

    The card must have the HP part on that number or your laptop does not start even upward except if the unsupported card is removed.

    Best bet is to get a used but tested and functional condition on eBay. Search for the part number.

    This is the cheapest I could find.

    Now for the video card driver...

    It's the one you need. Windows Vista Business 32-bit of the nc6220

    Instructions to install...

    Download and run the file. It will error out and give you an error no operating system support. Close to that.

    Go to Device Manager and click on your VGA adapter. Then click on the driver tab, click on set to update driver.

    Select the 'Browse my computer for software' and navigate to C:\SWSetup\sp34749.

    Make sure that the include subfolders is selected and the driver should install.

  • I would like to have the internet to my PC via the WiFi card.

    Original title:  WiFi card

    Hi all

    I have a WiFi card in my new build pc a Ethernet card.   I am connected to the internet via the Ethernet connection, and I was wondering what I can do with the WiFi card.  I am about to upgrade to my 1st smartphone and would like to have conversation with my PC via the WiFi card.

    How then?  I don't see immediately in Windows 8 in the implementation of a WiFi Hotspot or is it a special network where I'm after?  I would also like the other members of the family to sync it phones to my PC because it will be centralized for all media storage.

    Thank you

    Your computer's wireless card connects to a wireless router and can go to the Internet or your local network via an Ethernet cable or wireless...

    The Ethernet connection works to connect to the back of your computer to the same wireless router where it plugs into an Ethernet connector.  From there, it can connect to the Internet or your local network, by cable or wireless.

    See control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Network and Center sharing.  Go on "Change adapter settings" and go on ' change the advanced sharing settings.

    Make sure of course both ethernet and Wireless Adapters are enabled.  Make sure that network discovery is turned on.

  • Main problems to upgrade the graphics card in my Mac Pro in 2006.

    I am trying to upgrade the graphics card OEM in my Mac Pro 2006 to a Radeon HD 4870 1 GB graphics card.  I have big problems.  The previous owner recommended that my BONES 10.7.5 uninstalling and reinstalling.  I don't know how to do this.  The Apple website was no help with this issue.  The previous owner gave me a lot of procedures I've ever done before, including removing and re-creation of my RAM and using a Kext troubleshooting application.  Any suggestions you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

    a 4870 with 1 GB of VRAM is not a real Mac card (who had only 512 MB of VRAM). Unlikely to show an image until the login screen, if ever. Unless the seller has a 100% guaranteed working procedure to get this working, I recommend you return for a refund - it is not likely to work in your Mac.

    A true 5770 Mac or 5870 is the best approach for a 2006 or 2007 Mac Pro, because they are known to work with everything except movies under copyright, and your Mac is stuck in the 32-bit kernel and pre - 10.7.5 MacOS.

  • Upgrade the video card on Satellite X 200-20 g

    Hello everyone

    I'll find a way to have my 8700M GT updated on my X 200 laptop.
    I paid for it more than 2000 and I paid for 2 years warranty.
    A few months later, I discovered that some of the new Toshiba are equipped with 9700 m GTS!

    I know that the X 200-20 G is having a mxm graphics card which is removable to be upgraded (not being is not part of the motherboard).

    I couldn't find anywhere in the Toshiba site, where I can ask to buy a new graphics card, or if I can send my laptop and ask for an upgrade price.
    I suppose someone who has paid a sum of money for Toshiba can be listened to, or get a special offer to swap its model to the newest one after even not a year of use.

    I really want to upgrade the video card, and I don't really know where to find advice or information about it, other than on the side of Toshiba.

    Thanks to everyone or admin, to let me know how I should do, or process.

    Kind regards
    Chris

    I have a computer laptop g60-635dx. can I upgrade the graphics card on this laptop?

    Hello

    Here are the specs of your machine:

    http://bizsupport1.Austin.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?objectID=c02033074 & lang = to & CC = US & TaskID = 101 & prodSeriesId = 4074269 & prodTypeId = 321957

    He uses: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500 M, which is soldred to the motherboard so practically you can not change because you have to change the motherboard, to buy the new video card, to change the cooling system... all adding up will cost more than a new machine.

    Kind regards.

  • Upgrading the graphics card on my pavilion

    want to upgrade the graphics card to my PC in order to improve the gaming experience to this topic, the absence of a powerful video card is the only thing preventing my games works fine, so I was thinking about upgrading to a 2 GB card, but I don't know if my PC would actually support it or if I could install it at all. Could someone here tell me if I could install this material? Thank you

    Graphics card: here

    Hello

    The NVIDIAGTX 650or the NVIDIA GTX 660would be a good choice.  I'd go with the GTX 660 if you want to run at resolutions higher than with the ultra game settings.    The Corsair CX 500 or CX600 would be good choice for a replacement power supply.

    The 6 GB of memory in your PC is a little low by RUST, but I would give it a go with the updates above before increasing the memory of your system.

  • Change the Wifi card in the Satellite U200 163

    Hello

    Is it possible to change the wifi card internal of my computer toshiba laptop u200-163, I can change the hard disk?

    Thank you.

    If you use the compatible WiFi card I see no problem, but in my opinion, there is no reason for this. I guess your laptop comes with WLAN card 802.11a/b/g and using the g standard data transfer is fast enough and you avoid any problems if you use your laptop for work.

  • Upgrade the video card

    I have a HP Pavilion h9-1187 windows 64 - bit pc with nvidia GeForce GT 530 by default.  I need to upgrade the video card, but this motherboard has only one of pci express 16 3.0 slot.  Almost all decent video cards require two slots.  I guess that most cards except those in the crossfire, two cards together configuration, must the two slots.  Most of the time, I guess the seller asking two slots due to the space.  Remove the CAP from my pc and possibly void the warranty, can someone tell me what video card width this pc may take.   I have the motherboard COMPANY PEGATRON, the default value.  If you care to recommend a video card decent all 250-300us about feel free.  Thank you. Apologies, but as a newbie I also posted this in the hardware section of the bureau of the forum as well.  I'll delete the entry that is in the wrong part of the forum.

    When a card is listed as having "two slots", this means only that he would hold the PCIe x 16 location and regardless of the slot is adjacent. It does not require a connection to more than the PCIe x 16 slot. Looking at the photo below, the long black slit under the "IPMMB-FM" is the PCIe x 16 graphics card slot. "The slot short slot needs to be empty, then the '2 locations' map can adapt it without connection to this.

    Almost any card graphics PCIe 2.0, 2.1 or 3.0 will work on your computer. Please look at these PCIe x 16 graphics cards for a selection in your price range. Please see Guide of Dave_G of a discrete video card selection of useful information on the subject.
