• Pavilion P6240F: HP Pavilion p6240f Cpu Cooler

  I have a HP Pavilion P6240F.  The two screws for the broken cpu fan and now when I turn on the computer, it makes a rattling noise.  I need to know what the original CPU cooler with heat sink, or one that matches it.

  What is actually broken?  The plastic guard mounted fan? The fairing plastic? The shroud has also 4 screws.

  Fan attaches to the plastic fairing with 4 screws. The shroud bolts to the bottom of the metal heatsink to the motherboard. Between the radiator and the actual motherboard is the processor.  A thin layer of thermal grease combines the heatsink and processor.

  The set is part # 5187-8413. It may be google.

• HP Pavilion p6240f: upgrade RAM, Pavilion p6240f works not

  Greetings HP community.

  Today, I'm working on a HP Pavilion p6240f. I am trying to install (2) 8 GB DDR3 1600 chips.  When I turn on the computer I hear 1 short beep and 1 long beep, which results in an error of memory.  Bought the wrong RAM?  Can I make it work?  I checked the BIOS and it seems that I have the version 5.11 of 29/09/2009 and no other version is available on the product Web page.

  Please help, thanks

  Hello

  The motherboard in the p6240f is only spec'd to use 2 GB DIMM modules.

  Your first consideration should be Support HP or HP sales during the consideration of upgrades or replacement of memory. If you want to consider other manufacturers of the best way to avoid memory problems is to contact one of the leading manufacturers of memory. I would recommend that you try the tools of these manufacturers: Corsair, Kingston and Crucial. Once you have determined the DIMMs that you need, then contact commercial or technical support to check that you have selected the correct DIMMS. If you buy directly from manufacturers, then they will stand behind their products.

• Memory update for P6240F desktop computer? Also processor options

  I have a HP P6240F of desktop with AMD Q8300 processor and 8 GB of RAM (4x2Go).  I think that when I checked before I determined that 8 GB is the maximum that could handle the motherboard. Can anyone confirm that this is still the case? Also is there a upgrade cheap processor I could do that is compatible with my motherboard? With relatively inexpensive memory, I'd love to spend at least 12 GB if possible.

  Thank you...

  Hello

  8Gb is the maximum number. You can check with this:

• Strong constantly operational CPU - P6240F desktop fan

  Similar problems have been posted here, but my model, the motherboard and the version of the BIOS is different, I'll start a new post.

  Try to check all the screws fixing radiator in place for the risk of rupture of the plastic arround none of them. This can sometimes happen and the radiator is then not sitting correctly on the CPU. You can also buy silicone grease, remove radiator CPU, clean its surface bya a fabric, but also radiator and apply new silicone grease. The former might have gotten dry and hard and loose the thermal conductance.

  Thanks for any help.

  Hello @heaterguy,

  I understand that you are at the point where you are looking to replace your graphics card. You can update your graphics card. Just using a PCE Express x 16 graphic card and remember to keep in mind the requirements of power currently according to the Specifications of HP Pavilion p6240f Desktop PC , you have a 300 Watt power supply. If the graphics card, you choose requirement more power than you need to update as well.

  Also, be sure to disable in the BIOS of your integrated graphics.

  I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

• Need help with Expansion Bay connections

  Hello

  My father last week bought a desktop p6240f with Windows 7 computer.  He went out and bought a Blu - ray DVD player because there is an expansion Bay.  Well, I went to install in its new PC to see that it doesn't seem to be enough connections for me to install that.  Both the existing drive and the new Blu - ray player have the motherboard and the power of SATA connections.  Well there are a lot of connections to motherboard SATA, however there are only 2 SATA (1 active DVD drive) power connectors and 1 for the hard drive.  There is a lot of supply connections 4 pins, but that does not help me.  Because there are a lot of 4 connections of the pins I thought maybe I could then just use an old drive that came from his las PC... it is not possible either because there is no IDE connection to the motherboard.

  At this point, I see absolutely no way for me to install a secondary in this PC drive, unless anyone knows of any connection of converter that will connect to the power connection 4 pins at the other end a SATA power connection.

  Any help in this matter will be useful.

  Thank you

  Joe

• Move windows in Windows 7

  I have a new HP Pavilion p6240f I used for about a week.  I discovered that Windows 7 is a new feature which is really annoying.  When you minimize a window and drag it to the top or the side of the screen so you can watch another window, the window moving automatically 'fixed' on the edge of the desk and expands... usually a lot bigger.  I want to know how to disable this feature.  When I move windows autour, I want to stay where I put them, and if I want them more, I enlarge them myself.  (I usually hate it when my computer thinks he knows what I want better than I do and change stuff without asking me.)

  Thank you.

  Thanks for the info.  I didn't know what the function was called, so I couldn't do a search for it.  I didn't notice the part "shake".  I love how the minimized windows piling up under the IE icon, and when I move the cursor on the icon I get these small preview windows.  I'll play with it some more, but I have a feeling I'm going to turn it off.  I guess I'm just a guy a bit of gear.

  I see there are a few other videos covering the other new features of Windows 7, so I'll be watching for those too.  I had XP on my old desk, and I'm getting used to 7 pretty quickly.  I like better than XP, and it's much, much better than Vista.  I have Vista on my laptop, and I will definitely be upgrading.  Win7 is much more intuative.  I have very little trouble to know where things are.

  Thanks again.
