  You are the very welcome, Russ.

  You can probably use the directly from Intel chipset installation utility.  The 2nd driver on the list, it's the auto install file.

• New model: HP Envy 15 t Upgrade HD SSD or mSATA SSD?

  Hi all

  I read several threads on the upgrade of the disk for SSD and it seems that everyone else has managed to do.  My question is, is there an advantage to upgrade to an SSD HARD drive or simply add in mSATA SSD?  I currently have a network drive that contains most of my data such as music, photos and videos, so I don't think that I need more capacity on my hard drive.  That being said, I had planned on buying an SSD of 256 / 240GB, it's just a question of which one get? a regular SSD or mSATA SSD?  Thoughts?  Comments?  Concerns?

  on a side note: I envy 15 new t... I really wish that they would have changed the name of the template to something completely different because the prefix is the same as their old model... stupid...

  Get a 2.5 inch SATA SSD ordinary. Very slightly slower than a WSSD but still much faster than anything else. Try to configure the WSSD as boot drive is a huge problem.

• 6 - 1014NR envy: HP Envy 6 - 1014 upgrade to SSD prompting the Installation Windows disc

  This laptop was purchased with a Windows 7 OS pre-installed.  A year ago, I took advantage of the free upgrade to Windows 10.  No problem and so far so good.
  
  Today, I decided to upgrade my factory HDD to SSD performance.   I clone the drive HARD integer using Macrium Reflect and he went ase expected.

  After passing on hard drives and cranking up the SSD, I am taken to the Windows Boot Manager screen.  It recognizes that I have a hardware change (HDD-> SDS) and he suggested that I demarrer start with Instalation of Windows disk, select language and next, before choosing the repair option.  How can I solve this problem I never got a Windows Setup disc (without CD player on this model)?

  In the Windows Boot Manager, there is a following screen to select an operating system.  Although I can see the Windows 10 option, after you have selected the option I need just to return to the Windows Boot Manager screen.

  You can provide any help would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance!

  You are the very welcome.

  Unfortunately, I do not know what W10 gives you the repair options.

  If there is a command line option, you can try running the repair options listed in the link below.

  They are for W7, but maybe W10 uses the same commands.

  https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/927392

  I would not invest too much time in the repair installation, because you will probably be able to clean install W10 and install all your programs and files in less time it will take to understand the problem (if you can).

• HP envy 750 124: upgraded hp envy 750 124 pc

  I am trying to upgrade this computer to handle new games. I don't know what are my best options and what options are available to me with this model. Any help would be appreciated.

  @maras1ja, welcome to the forum.

  Do not change the processor or memory.  I have a HP with the same processor gaming computer and only 8 GB of memory. I play Splinter Cell: Blacklist on the highest settings at more than 60 fps.

  A good video card would be an excellent upgrade.  I love EVGA products.  You need to measure the space where the card needs to be installed to make sure it fits.  Measure back plate i/o to the front of the case.  This will allow you to see if other components will be in the path of the map.  If you have any other questions on which card is best for your system, contact the Technical Support of the manufacturer for help.  They are the experts on their products.

  Another upgrade that will give you a very good performance increase is an SSD.  I won't have a computer without having a.  You will need to buy one with at least 250 GB.  I have a Samsung EVO 840 500 GB in my gaming computer.  It is no longer marketed, but there is an EVO 850.  The 500 GB would be better because it will give you more space for the games.

  These are the only updates that I would recommend.

• Envy 15-j028tx: upgrade to SSD

  Hello

  I want to upgrade my laptop to the SSD, and I need to know if there is any limitation on the capacity of the SSD for my laptop or I can just buy any capacity SSD and install it.

  Thank you

  The only limit is your budget. In practice, 1 TB SSD is also great that you can find and one who works perfectly. Just trade in the hard drive.

  Your repair manuals

  See p. 47.

  You might also need to drive solid state WSSD. If you install an SSD in place regular size and the regular HDD place you won't have the MSSD. Post back if you have any other questions.

• HP Envy M5L32EA #ABU: upgrade to SSD with two drives?

  Hello

  I want to improve my laptop to SSD. I read that my laptop has the facility for two hard disks. Anyone know if this is accurate, and if yes, what is the best way to migrate the operating system to the new SSD?

  Thank you.

  I use the Samsung 850 Evo. Best consumer SSD on the market, although that tends to cost a bit of a bonus. The extra bucks for the 'Pro' model is not worth in my opinion. The consumer SSDS are fast enough.

  OCZ, Sandisk, Kingston all also make good SSD which tend to be cut further.

• HP Envy 750-247c: hybrid 120g SSD and 2 TB HD

  I'm having a ton of trouble with this machine... I love the hybrid drive for its super fast service, but no matter what I do, everything is stored on the SSD (c), with no way to change things.  I changed the storage settings to ask him to save all apps, docs and media on drive D: (HD).  I am running Quickbooks 2015 and ALL my data, documents, program files, ect... are on the C: drive, so I keep getting messages that I ran out of memory.  I can't even save my QB files to uninstall and try to reinstall (which I did 3 times now).

  I already deleted everything I can (except all the s * & t HP put here that I don't want or need).

  DOEA anyone know if thereis a path along, or is the hybrid drive something?

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  I read your post on your desktop storage problems and wanted to help.

  Since it is a machine relatively new, instead of hurt for hours to fix yourself, why not just let HP fix it - for free!
  
  You must contact the HP Customer Support directly so they put you in contact with HP Tech Support to see what they can do on the diagnosis and repair of your machine remotely.
  
  I did recently, and HP technology was able to remotely access my PC on the Internet and to make the necessary repairs.

• HP ENVY 137C 750: GTX 1070 for HP ENVY 750-137C graphics card upgrade

  I picked up a refurbished HP ENVY 750-137c and am currently looking to improve the graphics. I don't want to break the Bank, but I don't want it to last me a while, I'm looking at the Nvidia GEFORCE GTX 1070.

  Apart from the evolution of the needs of power, does anyone know if this card is compatible, and if there are problems with this upgrade? In addition, Nvidia recommends a diet of 500W for this card. Would be - it sufficient, or is - this genrous number? In addition, if someone has a product of power supply they would recommend for this theoretical combination, I'd greatly appreciate advice.

  Thank you!

  @Drifterx311, welcome to the forum.

  Here are the full specifications of the card on the nVidia website.  The card is double slot and 10.5 "long.  I suggest measurement of the back plate of e/s to the front of the box to see how much space is available.  I think it fits, but it will be tight.

  As you said, the specs recommend a PSU 500W (PSU).  Personally, I'd buy one at least 600 w.  This will give you extra power for peak needs.  I love Corsair products.  Here are a few PSU for you to review Newegg.  If you choose a modular power supply it will allow you to install only the cables that are absolutely necessary.  This allows for better air circulation.  The PSU is the backbone of the computer.  Read the reviews to see what users have to say about them.  A good diet will make your system run much better.

• 750 - 177C envy: addition of Samsung SSD for envy 750-177C

  I just bought a HP Envy 750-177c. I have it operational and it works very well. I had installed a Samsung 850 EVO SSD in my old computer and now want to add to it. I have an external cloning device that I can plug it into the computer and launch the software from Samsung to clone the HD HP. Once this is done, I will be able to add the SSD to the drive Bay and make the boot drive. I did all these steps with my old computer, so I think that it will be substantially the same with the RESUME. I wonder if there is any change in the BIOS, that I should do to get the best performance from the drive. I also heard AHCI. Is selectable via the BIOS with Windows 10, or do I have to make some changes by Reg Edit? I need to download a driver AHCI? Is this useful?

  Thanks for the tips.

  Robb

  Hi @RobbL!

  When it comes to SSD, I suggest you to activate the AHCI because it often improves performance when it comes to SSDS (and not only - if you are running an SSD and a HARD disk HARD drive will get some push), and it offers a few additional features like connection hot records.

  You can activate it by following these steps:

  * Let the connected existing boot drive.
  * Go to MSCONFIG and set the PC to boot in safe mode.
  * Power cycle your PC all the way to the top in safe mode then power down in safe mode.
  * Turn on and boot into the BIOS and enable the AHCI and disable secure boot. Save the changes.
  * Restart your PC. If OK at this stage then return to MSCONFIG and uncheck start safe mode and save the changes.
  * Turn on your PC and if OK then power off.
  * Connect the new SSD and power upward.
  * Use the cloning software to clone the old disk on the new SSD.
  * Switch off the PC. Disconnect the old drive and plug the new SSD in this SATA port.
  * Lights up and you should be good to go.

  Regarding the drivers, you can take a look at this article from HP on the SSD:

  Hope this helps, and feel free to ask any questions you may have.

  See you soon!

• HP ENVY 750-177c: I have a HP ENVY 750-177c and has been upgraded and 2 thin black wires were disconnected.

  I have a HP ENVY 750-177c and has been upgraded and 2 thin black wires were disconnected from the motherboard.  They have loops at the end of the wires that look like they might slip on the pins.  The wires connect to the upper part of the box of the computer.  Where to reconnect?

  Find this card in your system. It is the M2 half-bridge Wireless card.  The other end of the wires must always be fixed.  There are 2 heels left and right of the '2 '.  If everything is correct, it is your physical WI - FI antenna. Just re - stick inside the case.  The small clips are used for an external aerial connection.

• 750 - 140z envy: envy 750-140z is compatible with AMD RX 480?

  Envy - what is compatible with AMD RX 480 750-140z? I guess I should also upgrade the PSU?

  Hi there @NicholasBraden,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!  I understand that you are looking for advice with an update of the graphics card. I'm happy to give you a helping hand with this.

  Using the following sources:

  HP ENVY 750-140z computer CTO product specifications and configurable options

  HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - specifications of the motherboard, Orchid3

  Radeon™ RX 480 graphics card - amd.com

  Your system has a PCI Express x 16 (Gen 3.0) slot and a power of 300 W.

  The specifications of the AMD 480 RX do not have some details that I'm normally looking like minimum power supply requirement. On the contrary, it shows typical Board power of 150W, which is not a list of peak power.  It also does not indicate the number and type of additional power connectors are needed, or the generation of slot PCIe required.  However, your motherboard has gen 3.0 I mentioned already so it's not likely to be a problem.

  So having a typical power consumption of 150 W for the card and to be sure, assuming that your system uses near the 300 W provided by the existing power, you're looking at least 450w for common use.  I suggest to go much higher than that, probably more to 550-600 W for a replacement hard drive, but you want to know what additional connections are required and ensure that the food get you has those which are available in both the type and the number.

  There is no guarantee that any parts added to a system will be compatible, and as it is your system is not compatible if only on the question of food.

  Please let me know if this is useful, and if it does not solve your problem, please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.

• HP Envy 750-114: hp envy 750-114-added to a graphics card

  I am to buy HP Envy 750-114 and upgrade with a graphics card.  The one I found is low power, so it will be fine with the 300 watt power supply that comes with 750-114 envy.

  The problem is I want to order the video card for a refund until the PC (the refund will expire until the PC is delivered).

  The 750-114 envy will accept a card of video of the form factor ATX size 7,76 "(L) x 5" (H)?

  I'm looking at one is the Gigabyte GV-N75TWF20C - 4GI.  It's the only sub - $200 4GB video card that I found that good performance and low power requirements.

  Here's the URL for the map in question:

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16814125813

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  I just received a text with HP support session, and they indicated that the largest 4 GB card with dimensions of 7,76 "x 5" will fit in the case.

  I'm a happy camper tonight!
