HP Compaq 8710p Display driver not work

I have a HP Compaq 8710p laptop PC bought from the United States in 2008. Core 2 Duo Processor and @GB RAM installed. Here are the specs of the PC.  http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/pscmisc/vac/us/product_pdfs/8710p.pdf.  I installed Windows 7 and used very well took place until a few days ago. Suddenly the screen flicked and restarted machner. Windows logon screen, means 4 turning points and become four squares of the windows logo thing came nicely and the following login screen came in very low resolution. I connected and checked the resolution and it became 640 x 480.

I thought it was a problem of display driver and tried to install display drivers, and then install windows XP and Windows 7 over and over again. But problem not solved and it seems that the graphics card does not have the drivers.

In the next step, someone told to format the hard drive completely and re-install windows fresh. I did format and installed windows 8 preview and installed

Now solved a little problem resolution is back to the initial state of 1440 x 900. but drivers still not apply. Still displays adapter it chip type: DAC , type: , chain of card: , BIOS information: , total available graphics memory: detected 256 MB video memory: 0 MB, video memory: 0 MB, shared system memory: 256 MB.

Could you please help me and advice to fix me this and get my machine back to the normal state.

Thank you

This is a link to the latest driver for your NVIDIA integrated graphics card.

This is a WHQL driver and should work.

If it doesn't, that's the bad news.

You remember of my mentioning the length of time that you have had the laptop?  The error message that you have received problems reported with the device, not the driver and that's probably mean that the video chip is a failure. Usually when a driver is the issue, the error message indicates that the pilot crashed and shortly after another message is displayed indicating that the operating system has recovered it. Laptop motherboard replacement may solve this problem if the pilot I linked to does not return your video output to normal operation.

    3. you get this error message while trying to open the web browser?

    This problem may occur for one or more of the following reasons:

    a. you may need to install the latest updates for your display driver
    (b) Visual effects, or too many programs running in the background may be slowing down your PC
    c. the GPU takes more time than allowed to display graphics on your monitor.

    Note: If you use an older video card, it may be a video driver that is fully compatible with your version of Windows.

    Kind regards

    Please see use of your iMac as a display with the target - Apple Support Display Mode and Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2: continues to reappear and ports Thunderbolt and the target Display Mode may not work - Apple Su... .

    If command-F2 does not work

    If your iMac won't go to the target Display Mode when you press Control-F2, check these things:

    • Make sure the iMac that you try to use it as a screen that supports target Display Mode.
    • Make sure you are pressing Control-F2 on the keyboard which is connected to the iMac to use as a screen.
    • In the keyboard system preferences, if the check box is enabled to use all F1, F2, keys etc. as standard features, changes of command-Fn-F2 key combination.
    • Make sure that your Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt cable is connected to both computers.
    • If you are currently connected to the iMac, you want to use as a screen, try to connect to return to the login window. Then again press Control-F2.
    • Some old keyboards Apple and third-party keyboards allow may not control-F2 to toggle display modes. In this case, use the keyboard that came with your iMac to activate / deactivate the target Display Mode.
    • If your iMac is currently started in Windows, it will not be in target display mode. Target display mode is not supported in Boot Camp.

  • Latitude E6410 internal display will not work unless the driver is disabled, regardless of the OS

    Hi all

    I had done research on google without end, dell community support research, etc. and cannot find the solution. The internal computer screen does not work on my Latitude E6410, except if the display driver is disabled. I tried all the drivers on the Dell Web site (including previous versions). The laptop has the card Nvidia nvs 3100 m. I've updated to the latest version of the driver available from Nvidia, and it still doesn't work. However, I can use an external monitor using a VGA connection.

    Tried with Windows 7 x 86 and x 64. X 86 and x 64 Windows 8. Windows XP x 86 same results.

    The strange thing is that if I leave the compatible driver, I can see the screen flash Dell OEM and the beginning of the GUI of Windows boot, but once the driver is started, the screen goes black.

    Ran the Dell diag and video passages. I think the problem is driver/software related like the screen works, but once the driver is loading with Windows, the screen stops video production.

    BIOS is updated. All the other drivers installed.

    Any suggestions?

    Laptop is still under warranty, so if I have to I can get a mobo replaced, but want to exclude all other possibilities first.

    Thanks for all comments and suggestions.

    OK, so I finally found the fix (literally, this morning).

    After browsing the internet, I found another site where this driver was the recommended fix and it worked:

    http://www.Dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriverDetails?driverId=R287174

    Now, my e6410 is not the nvidia driver and intel, only nvidia card.

    If your e6410 Intel and Nvidia, you may need to play with the pilots to see what will work the Nvidia driver (I'm guessing the driver Dell A08 works well).

    As a couple of my co-workers have the same e6410 and did not have this problem, it seems that the material appears to be the culprit, but only in the sense that a particular version of the Nvidia NVS 3100 m driver works with the Dell driver A08 and some will work with the driver Nvidia 302,80 (9.18.13.280) (which is installed by Windows as well). My Dell was purchases / delivered late 2010. My co-workers that Dell was purchase / shipped in early 2011. I don't know if the short time makes all the difference in what provided Dell (or correctly, what Nvidia to Dell Dell installed), but there is a difference.

    I also tried to upgrade the driver A08 (which is the version of the driver 8.17.12.5922 dated dated: 31/07/2010) to the 9.18.13.280 (as of: 11/06/2012) and it did not work. I had to go back to the 8.17.12.5922 to get the video to work again.

    My Nvidia NVS 3100 m firmware/bios version is: 70.18.53.00.04.

    I hope this helps anyone with this issue, but for now, it seems that the A08 driver is necessary for users of this issue.

    Good luck to all with this question, but I will now consider this matter resolved.

  • Display driver stopped working, does not recover...

    HP Pavilion dv7-6015tx

    Windows 7 32 bit

    ATI Radeon HD 6770 m

    Hello

    I thought I had solved this problem before, but it persists today.

    A while back my pc would freeze and then recover, with pop - up saying dialogue

    "display driver has stopped working and recovered."

    Now, it does not recover, it remains just frozen.

    This does not happen when I come back to the graphics card Mobile Intel.

    It freezes when I use AMD ATI Radeon.

    My PC freezes when I lead average graph low load.

    (I watch YouTube videos via the media player and internet browsing)

    This means that I'm not hardcore gaming, however when I'm hardcore gaming my pc does NOT freeze.

    I have the latest software/driver graphic HP provides me with.

    I can't install ATI, because everything I download from there, says it's not compatible with my device.

    I also think that sometimes my pc is overheating.

    I have HP CoolSense set for maximum cooling, however I think that this is not enough. (blue screen of death)

    I tried SpeedFan software of third party temperature sensor that automatically adjusts the fan speed.

    However, I don't think that the software is compatible with my motherboard because it can read my fan RPM speed.

    I think it's the GPU causing overheating because the CPU is 50 degrees celcius at an acceptable (?).

    This is a new laptop, so there is no collection of dust or debris in the exhaust gas.

    I would like to update my graphics driver, there were no update driver since the: 2011-05-06

    Also, I would like a method to increase the speed of the fan, preferably both GPU and CPU

    to lower the temperature and components

    Even as I write this, now I got force restart the computer because it froze. (driver has stopped working)

    I realize that the graphics driver may not be the only problem

    or it may be another problem, disguised as a problem of the graphics driver.

    I am willing and pledged to use all means, (with the exception of a full recovery of my pc)

    to fix my current misadventures with my laptop.

    Kind regards

    John

    You must first update the latest version of the BIOS of your laptop.

    Once you update to the latest version of the BIOS download and install the following softpaq and this should solve the problem:

  • HP 15-ac107nq: 15-ac107nq GRAPHICS DRIVER NOT WORKING Hp laptop

    I have a computer laptop 15-ac107nq Hp that has graphics of amd radeon r5 m300.

    The problem is that the driver provided by HP does not work.

    I downloaded sp72646.exe file here: http://support.hp.com/ro-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-15-ac100-Notebook-PC-series/8499326/model/1028280...

    Corresponding to the 64 bit version of windows 7 driver.

    Once all the files are extracted and the installation program is supposed to start, nothing happens.

    I noticed a few processes that are running in the background, but nothing appeared on the screen even after half an hour.

    I thought it might be a problem of .net so I installed 4.5 .net framework, but I had the same problem with the installer.

    Then I tried to install driver official website of the amd for this graphics card, but of course it does not work.

    Any ideas?

    Hi @crs4

    Install the driver intel first of the link below:

    Install driver AMD then below the link:

  • NOR tkds5000 LabWindows/CVI IVI driver not work for TDS5104, TDS5054B

    I'm trying to get the driver NI LabWindows/CVI IVI (tkds5000 version 1,212) working for the Tektronix TDS5054B scope.  When I execute the following functions, I have the warning 'Is not a valid value for the parameter or property' of 0xBFFA0010:

    IviScope_InitiateAcquisition

    IviScope_GetAttributeViInt32 for IVISCOPE_ATTR_TRIGGER_SCOPE and IVISCOPE_ATTR_ACQ_TYPE

    IviScope_ActualRecordLength

    This is not an exhaustive list of the functions that do not work, but just that I currently see.  There are several functions that work (see this joint SPY OR file).

    The strange thing is that everything works fine when I have an oscilloscope Tektronix TDS5104 connected (file SPY OR see attachment).  The code also works when I have an oscilloscope connected and selected through MAX TDS3054 driver tkds30xx IVI of NOR.

    Is it possible that the driver of version 1,212 tkds5000 does not support fully the TDS5054B?  I looked through the files tkds5000.c and tkds5000.h, but has not seen any dependencies on the model of the oscilloscope for these functions.  Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    Dave

    So, then I thought about it.  The tkds5000 driver AND works very well.  The problem is that the Tektronix TDS5054B scope do not "initialize" some of the attributes.  For example, I had a problem reading the value of the attribute of slope of relaxation because an invalid value was returned.  If I set the slope of the trigger, first of all, then read it, it works fine.

    Its strange because most of the attributes is set to the correct value corresponding to what is displayed on the oscilloscope screen and the Panel, but not ALL of them.  In addition, other Tektronix oscilloscopes did not require a writing before reading.

    Anyway, thanks a lot NathanT.  I appreciate your help.  You saved me a bunch of time to have to go back and add in a dedicated driver.

  • Pavilion G6 1006sh: HP Pavilion G6 1006sh external display does not work with Windows 8.1

    Hi all

    After you perform a clean installation of Windows Professional 8.1 on my Pavilion G6 1006sh I can't use my external Samsung monitor connected to the HDMI port.

    The windows installation is well unrolled without all the problems of the operating system had builtin readers for all devices. So there is no unknown hardware in Device Manager there is no sound, wifi, LAN, etc. In regards to the video card, I see two different devices. There is a generic VGA in Windows and there is an AMD Radeon HD 7400 installed M. The AMD Catalyst software has been installed successfully. In the graphic properties of windows that I can choose from two different outputs video, one is the general Windows VGA is the Radeon. However, windows detects monitor connected only on VGA General (i.e. integrated laptop display) and nothing on the Radeon so I can't use my external monitor.

    Of course, I tried to restart the laptop / monitor repeatedly, unplug / plug the HDMI cable but without success. When I plug the HDMI cable into the laptop the screen displays a message that it is connected, but there is no input signal. The HDMI port on monitor and works in the laptop I used the same setup with Windows 7 x 64 Professional without any problem. It is only the operating system that has changed.

    I tried to remove the General VGA device to force using Radeon, but after restarting it that nothing posted on the screen, I saw nothing on built-in or external monitor so I had to restore a previously saved system configuration.

    I tired to install the latest version of the graphics driver Radeon downloaded from the website of AMD, but crashed and restarted during the installation process of Windows.

    Please help me with this question or make a statement that this version of Windows is not supported on this machine and I must therefore go back to the old system.

    Configuration:

    model: HP Pavilion G6 1006 SH

    RAM: 2 x 4 GB

    OS: Windows 8.1 Professional x 64 (HUN)

    Drivers: installed and automatically updated by windows

    Antivirus: Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1

    Hi there @nzole

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, so many other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff.

    I understand that you have installed Windows 8.1 on your system, but now you can not detect an external HDMI monitor. I'm happy to help you with this.

    First of all, in response to your question, this model is not supported for windows 8.1. It was sold only in the versions that have been configured for Windows 7.  That would mean there is no drivers especially customized by HP for this model for Windows 8.1.  It is possible that you could find a suitable drive for a model that Windows 8.1 which can be strong support enough in terms of hardware, that his driver might work, but there is no guarantee.

    Here is the support page for your model: HP Pavilion g6-1006sh Notebook PC

    Products HP - what happens if I do not see my operating system?

    Do you still have the recovery partitions, or you did a set of recovery discs, before installing Windows 8.1?

  • Startup and display does not work well.

    When I start Windows XP it takes about 4 minutes to the icons appears.  They appear of normal size and the screen turns white and the size of the icons and programs and the internet are extra-large. I go into display properties and reconfigure and find his game on 8-bit!  After configuration back to normal display and restart or turn on again the same thing happens!

    Also, I tried to do a system restore and it does not work either. Please advise me on what to do. Thank you!

    Hi RhondaHeaven,

    I suspect that your display card drivers are corrupted. You have your cd/dvd drivers? If this is not the case, download your display drivers (you will get the model and make from Device Manager - click on start-> settings-> Control Panel-> system-> hardware-> device-> display adapter Manager).

    Click Start-> settings-> Control Panel-> system-> hardware-> Device Manager-> right click on your display-> Uninstall adapter.

    Uninstall display drivers Intel of add/remove programs.

    Restart your computer. Reinstall the drivers from the cd or downloaded driver.

    I hope this helps.

    Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
    It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

    Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus
    programs, the main drivers and BIOS update and also solve the problems with the cleanboot method
    first.

  • XP update causes background to disappear and the display is not working.

    When XP (Home, SP3) update 15/03/2011, it caused my desktop background to disappear and I can't get it back.  It has already happened with improvements, but usually, I was able to get back on the bottom.  But this time, if I go to control panel > display, it does not.  Unresponsive with a right-click on the desktop and no properties.  Tried to restart and reinstall the display driver and still nothing.  With the help of a videocard ATI Radeon HD5700.  Any ideas?  Thank you.

    I managed to fix it yourself using the method described on this site:
