• Is satellite A10 - possible to install the new graphics card?

  Hello

  I have a videocard Satelite A10, 2.2 Ghz, 712 MB of RAM, provided with your computer.

  I just bought the Sims 2 and thought from the specifications that I would be able to play on my current card. However when I try to run it it gets to the intro screen and then hangs when it is ready to go into the Menu. My first impressions are that I don't have a pretty good graphics card.

  I need a 32 MB T & L capable card so can someone confirm if this is why it would not work on the system.

  If that's the case I'm looking to see if it is possible to install a new graphics card on the machine I want to play more games to date.

  the map I'm looking at is Sapphire ATI Radeon 9600 XT 256 MB AGP8X graphics card. It will work on the machine and it is likely to solve my problem?

  Thank you

  HI Jeff,

  In General, it is not possible to change the graphics card in your laptop. This is because the graphics cell are generally not a component separated (as with a normal PC), but generally a specific graphic chip attached to the motherboard so make the graphics a part of the laptop.

  At the same time, the graphics driver is normally a specially modified version will omit some of the more esoteric aspects of the normal driver to minimize the risk of overheating chip since it does not have its own cooling system. Given this, you will find probably than trying to load the latest graphic website manufacturers drivers (Nvidia, ATI, etc.) will not work, and you will therefore be limited to these pilots provided by Toshiba on their Web site.

  In order to get your copy of the SIMS 2 to run you need to omit or reduce some of the graphics settings in the game itself, or alternatively, you can try to use some of the graphics third-party drivers that are written to provide some of the omitted features of the original notebook drivers. Note that if you do that there is no guarantee that they won't cause your overheating graphics chip, even if I used the ATI Omega drivers for some time now without any problems. You can get them: -.

• Computer does not start after installing a new graphics card

  I am owner of a HP Pavilion H8-1020 with a processor intel i7 - 2600 s Windows 7 and am trying to upgrade my Radeon hd 6570 to a Gigabyte AMD Radeon R9 280 OC. I improved my diet for a Corsair CX750 to meet the requirements of power and installed with number. After the installation of the new card, which as far as I can tell is well seated in the pci slot and correctly connected to the PSU, my computer does not start.

  System powers on, all fans of begin to run including the fans on the new graphics card, but it does not begin the boot process, no entry is received at my monitors, no light on the keyboard, my OS starts loading, I can turn off the system without the delay that will flow normally. Then I reinstalled my old graphics card and the computer started as usual.

  Now, assuming that the card is not DOA, which unfourtunatly I have no way to verify, and I'd like to see if it could be another problem before going through the process of restitution. I did some reading on the internet, which helped, but did not help for a technological neophyte like me.  Now, I know a few things that could cause this problem but lack the necessary skills to determine what question is making me. What I've read, these could be possible questions:

  1: my new graphics card is not compatible with my motherboard. It's something I know now that I should have checked before buying and something I should theoretically be able to do it now, but I am at a loss on how to do it. My card is compatible with my motherboard?

  2 could be a BIOS problem. I updated my bios driver with the version provided by the HP site. I am running FRIEND 7.16 05/10/2011.  And from what I've read it might have something to do with my bios to UEFI mode and I would need to go to a legacy mode so he can recognize a new device, is it true? I am extremely wary of messing with my BIOS settings for fear of bricking my system. How can I check my current BIOS settings are and what I should change and how would approach I change them? Will one of these changes affect my system if they are not what is not causing the problem?

  In addition to these issues, anyone know any other matter which may be the cause of the problem that I should look for? Thanks for any help.

  Hello @Eric_Z,

  I can see why you are having problems with your new graphics card, and to get to the fast response that your motherboard is not compatible with the new graphics card that you have purchased. And here's why.

  Your motherboard according to the page HP Pavilion HPE h8-1020 Desktop PC product specifications is the Carmel motherboard, which has the following expansion slots:

  • A PCI Express x 16
  • Three PCI Express x 1 connectors
  • A PCI Express Mini Card x 1

  As there is no version indicated for your PCI Express x 16 it slot means that it is version 1.

  Now, your previous graphics card was a PCI Express 2.1 x 16, which means that it was version 2 and compatible with your PCI Express x 16 slot on your motherboard. However, the new card is PCI Express 3.0 and will not work in your motherboard due to a compatibility break. While the technology is supposed to be compatible there are many cases where it is not, and I'm afraid that you meet one of these cases.

  I am offering an overclock.net article entitled: the final answer to the controversial compatibility of PCIe x 16 version. where your situation has been tested and examined.

  I hope this helps. Have a great day and thank you for display on the HP Forums!

• How to install the new graphics card due to the absence of HDMI Port

  I have an old laptop, and I want to connect it to my HD TV. Problem with that is that I don't have an HDMI Port. I noticed on a similar question that you responded that it might be useful to consider the insertion of a new graphics card. As I have never opened a laptop before, I was wondering if it is fairly simple to do this, (as anyone who could do it) or if I'd rather pay someone to do it?

  You can use something like this:

  http://Aluratek.com/USB-to-HDMI-1080p-adapter-with-audio

  or Google "USB to HDMI" of many other and different price ranges. Don't forget to look at the comments of consumers before buying something like this. They all promise of greatness, but I'm sure few deliver.

• install the new graphics card

  I just bought the Skyrim game and want to play on an old PC.  I don't know what product I'm looking, maybe a new diet, but also a graphics card.

  Here are the details... hope this is enough information:

  HP Pavilion A6403W

  Windows XP

  Intel (R) Pentium (r) Dual CPU

  E2160 @ 1.80 GHz

  1.80 GHz 1.87 GHz of RAM

  Motherboard: Asus A8AE - THE

  PCI BUS

  250w PSU

  From what I read it is open 16-bit PCI location

  All advice and/or the name of the specific product would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Look over hererecommended system configuration.  Your PC adapts to the minimum but not the recommended configuration.  Even in this case, you'll need a big discrete video card and a new PSU power supply.  If the game works even evil would then require more memory and a faster processor.

  The adjacent slot on the PCI-E x 16slot must be vacant.

• Re: I'll be able to install a new graphics card in, h8-1070uk Pavilion Desktop PC.

  Hi guys, just wondering if anyone can give me any advice as to whether a gtx 670 FTW would fit into my current build. I know that I would have to upgrade the PSU and would be also grateful for any advice you could give me, well done guys.

  The standard for the PC PSU which are sold for upgrades is ATX for most of the PC case.

  If you build a HTPC (Home Theater PC), you would need a new PSU called ITX or Mini-ITX standard size.

  PC motherboards are also sized by what is known as a footprint. yours is microATX. This is a standard size of the industry. It depends on your case and the size of the motherboard and whether or not the motherboard uses a standard ATX power supply connector or an owner as do some old HP PC.

  The following image tells us something about the size of the case, but the given power supply information is lacking.

  

  

  So now we know, by the indicated specifications, most of cards mothers microATX would fit in the case of your PC.

  I hope that it starts to make more sense for you. These are things you need to know when building a PC from scratch, otherwise you could easily waste time and money on the wrong parts.

  I just did a quick search here in the forum. I see that this has already been discussed in a thread. An ATX PSU will work on your PC. Else on the graphics card you are interested and appropriate PSU for it.

  Best regards

• I'll be able to install a new graphics card in, h8-1070uk Pavilion Desktop PC.

  I bought this computer around September/October time last year. No get hurt, the computer is AMAZING, but I can't put up with an integrated graphics card (NVidia GeForce GT545 / 3GB is the default that comes with the system). So my question as I am able to change my graphics card? I have a GTX ready to go GB 680.

  Here are the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion HPE h8-1070uk. According to the specifications, the motherboard has integrated Intel HD 2000 / 3000 graphics (depending on model) and supports PCI Express x 16 graphics cards. Your system was shipped from the factory with a PCI Express x 16 3 GB NVidia GeForce GT545. In addition, specifications, your system is equipped with a 460 Watt power supply. All the GTX680 I watched require power minimum system assessment of 550 watts or greater. So, Yes, you can replace the GT545 with a GTX680... simply put to the power supply as well. Corsair CX600 is slightly larger than a stock HP power and is highly recommended, but also a favorite forum. For more information, read Guide of Big_Dave of a discrete video card selection .

  Hello Joey

  If right now you go back to Windows XP and the system is slow correct? You have the drivers installed since you went back to XP? If not then click here and select your system. This will bring up a list of available drivers for you. Also, I've included a link below to get the drivers for your new video card. My problem with the question is if your system has enough power to support the video card. Here are the specifications of your card. Check the configuration required for the map and you ensure that you have adequate food. Let me know if it helps. Thank you.

• Stuck on the HP logo screen after installing new graphics card.

  I installed a new graphics card today and I'm stuck in the loading screen. My old card boots gts 450 my computer very well, but my new graphics card cannot. I replaced my old diet with a 600w power supply, and it worked fine with my old card.

  metall909,

  If you use an EVGA 760, so your question is probably a vbios into the video card.

  HP PC delivered after November 2012 are pretty good at speed on the last level of UEFI version. This level begins to version 8.

  I met problems with EVGA 760 UEFI and ASUS claims it is a vbios video card problem and EVGA says this is a motherboard problem.  I would not recommend using this card until EVGA releases an update of the vbios.

  If you are in a situation of pointing finger between HP and EVGA.

  I need to install a new graphics card on a HP ProLiant ML310 Gen3 of v2 server as edge one is a failure.

  Card - EVGA GeForce 8400 GS

  During the installation startup BIOS hangs after the initial check (100% / no errors) and remains at a black screen indefinitely instead of forward to the ProLiant logo boot before windows.

  Therefore, I am unable to enter the bios to enable the PCI 16 slot.

  Before the system LED flashes red at this point.

• Pavilion p6 - 2120t: Windows will not start with the new graphics card

  Installed a Zotac GT 740 profile down in my desktop PC graphics card HP Pavilion p6 - 2120t and now the PC does not start.

  HP Pavilion p6 - 2120t CTO desktop PC

  Configuration:
  Intel Pentium CPU [email protected]
  4.0 GB RAM
  Intel HD Graphics Driver version Family: 8.15.10.2291 dated 27/01/2011
  Motherboard: IPISB-CU (Carmel2) (1 open PCI Express 16 expansion slot pins)

  BIOS to Version 7.18

  Running:
  Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit w/service pack 1
  Two monitors (VGA, 1 digital port 1)

  Before installing the new graphics card, I replaced the power supply original 300w with a 400w power supply.

  For starters, I disabled the onboard graphics in Device Manager. Then, I opened the case and installed the GT-740 in the open PCI Express slot. I made sure that the card was fully engaged in the slot.

  I plugged both monitors to their connections voted on the new map.

  When I tried to boot the PC, the digital monitor displays the screen HP (the one that indicates which key support to achieve the start menu) and then frozen. No other entries of key or mouse have been accepted.

  The PC then sounds 4 short beeps (about 10 seconds between each beep) and then a long beep before turning off the signal to the screen.

  Then, I removed the new graphics card on the PC that starts then. I have reactivated the original graphics drivers and the PC then worked normally.

  Tried the above process two more times with the same results.

  I then went into the start menu to look at the BIOS. The menu of the BIOS shows two options:

  > Sources of boot UEFI

  Windows Boot Manager

  > Sources of boot legacy

  ATAP I CD/DVD player

  SATA2

  Hard drive

  SATA0

  Network controller (Realtek PXE B06 D00)

  PC using UEFI Boot Manager Windows boots normally

  I have not tried Legacy Boot Sources because I don't know which one to choose.

  I went to the HP site and looked for an update to the newest BIOS, but updating them is a rev version 7.16 while my PC shows my BIOS to version 7.18

  I know that others have had a similar problem but I have not seen a solution that works for my PC.

  Any advice would be welcome.
  Thanks for your time.

  Hello

  Your PC isn't spec'd to run Windows 7 using the Windows Boot Manager.  I expect to a UEFI-based graphics card likely to work on an HP PC that does not have a BIOS version 8.

  The below listed OEM HP, graphics cards should work in your PC using a normal non - UEFI W7 and W8 installation.

  Upgrades the easy PSU?

  And upgrading the PSU does affect my warranty?

  Thanks for your response

  As long as the new parts cause damage to all HP stock products, should not void the warranty. You can get a definitive answer on that of HP.

  The upgrade of the PSU is pretty simple. On most of the better manufacturers Web sites and on YouTube there are videos that will show how it's done. All that is necessary in terms of tools is a #2 screwdriver. I really can't say if it will be easy for you to do or not.  I was dismantling and reassembling of various things for very long.
