HP 8000 Elite sff: drivers update... not so simple anymore.

OK, I admit, I'm late. I'm just trying to update an HP 8000 Elite Win 7 pro x 64 pre-installed, and I used just go to "drivers and software" and choose the newest one. NOW, when I get my pc and os, I gives me FIVE choices for the graphics driver, and I don't have any idea what's best for me. I'm fairly certain that I'm not supposed to download all THE I don't play a lot, and I don't think that I have all the cards installed, but graphics is not just for the games. I just want the best all around graphics driver every day.

And, while I show my ignorance, let me add: I checked for an update of the bios, and there were FOUR choices. How can the world be FOUR choices of update of the bios on a specific computer and os?  Thank you

Hello:

I have 8000 Elite CMT.  W10 works very well.  I add an AMD Radeon HD 6570 in mine, however.

If your 8000 Elite SFF have no graphics cards, they have integrated Intel HD graphics card.

If you want to add a video card, I recommend for models SFF, map of chart AMD Radeon HD 6450 low profile with media of low profile, which is the graphics card optionally used on the 8200 Elite SFF with the same 240 W power supply.

So if your PC lacks a graphics card in option, you want this driver Intel graphics for W7:

Updates the BIOS... They are easy to make if you know how to do, and what BIOS file you need.

You want this file to update the BIOS...

I'm happy that I came across this thread, because I thought I had the latest BIOS update on my 8000 Elite and I see one is out after during a four-year hiatus, in November.

So I've just updated the BIOS of my PC using the procedure I will explain then.

I've made it simple for you both to update the BIOS by using the following instructions, and I also zipped and attached the file for BIOS, you need to perform the update.

It doesn't matter what operating system you use to Flash the BIOS as I do.

You will need a USB flash drive formatted with the FAT 32 file system.

Download and uncompress the file that I attached below.

Copy the files in the folder you have unzipped on your USB flash drive.  All the contents of the file, not the file.

Plug the USB key into one of the usb ports.

I recommend you disconnect all connected to the PC, but the keyboard, mouse, monitor and usb flash drive.

Restart the PC and at the beginning of the HP welcome screen, press the F10 key to access the BIOS.

Select the file menu.  This menu is an option «Flash system ROM»

Select this option.  Then it will ask for CD or USB.

Select USB.  Now you should see the flash file visible on the screen of your USB flash drive.

Follow the prompts on the screen to Flash the BIOS.

Restart the PC.

Upon restart, you should see the new 1.14 BIOS are displayed on the lower left side of the blue HP welcome screen.

    For anyone having this problem, I discovered the cause after reading a post on the forums of thegreenbutton.tv.  An application in Chrome or any browser Chrome (in my case, the Slimjet browser) is the culprit.

    For me, it was the Plex app.  He was diverting the judgment and move forward and back buttons on my remote HP WMC.  As soon as I disabled the application of Plex, the buttons started working.   Never would have guessed that this was the problem!  Hope this helps someone else who might have the same problem.  Ah, tech.  Isn't beautiful?

  • HP Compaq 8000 Elite SFF - virtualization

    There are chances that this PC may run on Windows 8 Enterprise Hyper-V VM?

    I would like to have virtualization on this PC so that I can install different operating systems for the development of trial software.

    I know that the CPU is capable of virtualization, but when I try to install the Hyper-V feature, I get an error that the BIOS is not capable of Hyper-V.

    Will there be an update of the BIOS for this PC to allow me to run Hyper-V? If there is, where can I download it from?

    TIA

    Product # LN071PC #ABG

    Unfortunate, the BIOS has no options to turn on virtualization technology.

    You might consider, if you accept the risk, to take a look at the BIOS change sites.

    Search to see if this has been the topic of discussion on the internet by doing an online search in Google or Bing with "HP Compaq 8000 Elite SFF virtualization" as keywords.

  • Drivers PCI and USB for W8.1 HP Compaq 8000 Elite SFF?

    Hi guys,.

    I'm trying to update an old workstation HP Elite 8000 LTS to W8.1 but can't find the right drivers for the PCI Serial Port and USB devices. Driver HP downloads page shows nothing for W8 x 64 when I put in the serial number and search for drivers. Apparently, Windows 7 is as far as I can take this machine?

    Naively, I thought that Windows can handle these aircraft out of the box, given his age.

    Can someone confirm if I'm able to run W8.1 on this material and if yes where I could find appriate drivers for it?

    Thank you

    Scott

    You are the very welcome, Scott.

    From what I can make of this hardware ID, it is part of the USB2 controller system.

    Something really got blocked upward with the USB/USB2 chipset driver part.

    See if this Intel chipset driver installation does nothing to correct the problem...

  • 8200: 8200 of elite sff bios update

    Hi all, I am trying to update the bios with the latest version, I go through the procedure to locate the file, then download the file but when I try to update I get a message saying that the file is damaged or missing ive done this 3 times with the same result, ideas? was soon fred

    Hi, Fred:

    I have the 8200 Elite CMT and I've updated the BIOS year last to v02.28.

    I have no problem with the file, so what I did to you is I zipped to the top and attached the contents of the folder BACK Flash for the update of BIOS below, and here's how you can update the BIOS quickly, safely and easily.

    You can run any operating system you want, because you will not be flashing the BIOS under Windows.

    You will need a USB stick formatted with the FAT32 file system.

    Download and uncompress the file that I attached to his record.

    Copy all the contents of the file in the folder on your USB.  Make sure you get all the files.

    I recommend that you update the BIOS with just keyboard, mouse, monitor and connected flash drive. Nothing else.

    Plug the flash drive into one of the front usb ports.

    Restart the PC and at the beginning of the HP welcome screen, press the ESC key to get the options menu.

    Select the F10 Setup menu to access the BIOS.

    Once in the BIOS, select the file menu.  Then select the system Flash ROM option in the list.

    Now you should see the contents of the file to the flash drive on the screen.

    Follow the instructions to update the BIOS screen.

  • Division by zero weird problem on HP 8200 Elite SFF

    Greetings,

    I posted my message here, it appears now that my problem is hardware specific.  My machine has the following specifications:

    HP Compaq 8200 Elite SFF
    Intel Core i5-2500 Duo @3.3 GHz processor
    8 GB memory

    Windows 7 x 64

    (I can provide more details if necessary)

    This has been me puzzled for more than a week now!

    We have an application where we lack in a division by zero. That request is deliberately built to raise exceptions in this case, with a call to the function _controlfp_s for edit masks on floating point exceptions.

    Now, when you run in a division by zero pretty much all of our machines, Visual Studio 2005 debugger breaks in the right place in our source files. However, on this machine, the location of the break is in every sense and seems to be unrelated to the real cause of the failure. So as a test, I built a simple win32 C program with just the following lines of code:

    int main (int argc, char * argv [])
    {
    float temp1, temp2, temp3;
    unsigned int control;

    _controlfp_s (& control, _EM_UNDERFLOW + _EM_INEXACT, _MCW_EM);

    Temp1 = 1.0;
    Temp2 = 0.0;
    Temp3 = temp1/temp2;

    return 0;
    }

    On all these 'good' machines, the code breaks when the temp3.  Among the other machines tested successfully, I had various hardware and operating systems, including Server 2008 R2, Windows XP x 32 and Windows 7 Pro x 64.  However, on this machine, the code stops at:

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\crt\src\tidtable.c

    function:

    __set_flsgetvalue()

    In reviewing the records I have change the assembler code, everything seems fine until I hit the "ptsps" statement... then all records seem to be messed up (vs research as expected on a good machine). When comparing the stack on the good vs. bad, I also see entries of pile on the wrong machine, I don't see a good...

    Now... Here's what I did to solve problems:
    1. a disc image of the original disc HP on a hot spare and the original picture restored.
    2. only installed Visual Studio 2005 Pro - portion of C++.
    3 - tested above, code has always failed.

    4 - update all service packs Windows and tested above code.  Failed.

    5 - update all service packs, the Studio 2005 and tested above code. Failed.

    6 uninstalling all the bloatware and tested above code. Failed.

    7 - updating the BIOS and firmware and tested above code. Failed.

    8. install Visual Studio 2010 and tested above code. Failed.

    Then... I decided to take my spare disk image and install it on a similar, but a little older HP computer that we have, which has the following specifications:

    HP Compaq 8000 Elite SFF
    Intel Core Duo E8400 #3 GHz
    4 GB memory

    I went through the process of installation very well, even though she used the typewriter 8200 recovery partition.  On this machine, I simply installed the operating system and Visual Studio 2005 Pro - portion of C++.  No service packs not whatsoever (even if the Studio 2005 requires an update for 'vista') and the code worked as expected!

    So, that leaves me about almost everything but the material!  Also note that I tried to disable several processors and all optimization of the BIOS on the 8200, without success.

    I don't see anything else I can try... Please help!

    Wow!

  • 8000 WE595PA SFF #ABG: how to set up dual display on Compaq 8000 LTS

    Hi E1,

    I have setup my desktop computer 8000 Elite SFF to run two monitors via the VGA port and the port of display using a display port to VGA.

    When everything is connected and I start the computer, nothing appears on the screen and after about 10 seconds, the fan starts very hard.

    I can unplug the display port adapter and then turns on the screen connected to the VGA port. I can then plug in the monitor connected to the display via the adapter port and it works very well and watch the display mode double perfectly.

    My Device Manager shows all drivers installed (outside Serial Port PCI I consider as a matter of standard fairy with most legacy systems running W10).

    Am I missing something here? I really need to be disconnected from the graphics card and then after plug Windows startup?

    Thanks in advance. My brain is slowing down trying to figure these days, I can tell you these things.

    Thank you, I tried your advice and I always had the problem so I loaded default bios and that seemed to fix the problem.

    Thanks for the suggestions.  I had already updated to the latest version of the bios.  It did not help.  It turns out that when you upgrade the 8100 elite to an i7 to add a separate video card.  This is why I am getting 6 beeps.  Thanks for the help.

Any help please? HP 8100 Elite SFF - core i5 Windows 7/32 bit.

    Hello:

    If you look at the quickspecs below, page 7, some i5 processors require a discrete graphics solution (i5-750 and 760 i5 and i7).

    http://www.NTS.nl/site/HTML/modules/PDF/PC/HP%208100%20CMT.PDF

    This is because these processors do not have the support to run the integrated graphics card.

    So, if your PC have the i5-750 or i5-760, you need to have a graphics installed for the video card to work.

Maybe you are looking for
