HP Pav Elite m9340f BSOD then dead--repeatedly.

What had started as a big rip-roaringly computer experience has become a nightmare.

Bought in July, ran beautifully, until three weeks ago, and then the horror began.

I've been repeatedly BSOD with error messages regarding the unrecoverable hardware malfunctions.

At each diagnostic program, no problems found.

All bios, corrections and the udates of HP and Microsoft have been installed and up to date.

No additional material added before the collapse.

Full recovery of the system with the backup disks - BSOD

Recovery of the complete plant - BSOD

Does not start until office - BSOD.

Is now dead - not even a BSOD.

Disgusted.

Help.

A miracle of healing.

After trying all sorts of recovery methods and it reinstalls adjustments to plant four times, EUREKA!

Everything works again! No BSOD or crashes yet.

The problem... error in partition.

Go figure.

Now, I have a HP and a repair order on the reserve.

I will keep you updated.

So, if you BSOD and your error message indicates that an unrecoverable hardware error, you may have erred in partition.

  • HP Pavilion Elite m9340f replacement video card and power supply

    Hello

    I bought my HP Pavilion Elite at Best Buy m9340f in 2009 and brought it to the Venezuela where I live now.

    My video card, started making the noise of the typical fan geforce 9500gs can do. The temperature of the gpu is very high (from 73 ° c without playing or watching videos!), and I'id like to replace it as soon as possible before my material fails completely.

    But the power supply 350w, to replace any video card decent needed to change my diet too. I have not the slightest idea of what type of power supply should I buy, and if I should replace the case too. My intention is to keep my cpu, my mother, my hard drive and my ram (purchase of a new system to the Venezuela is out of the question because of the barbarian prices in this country).

    Then to take the questions in order, I'll here:

    -I want another video card (geforce 9500gs is known for his failure, so I want to upgrade to a more powerful card)

    -To do this, I need another power supply, so I need recommendations on the provision of market models which CORRESPOND to my HP Pavilion Elite m9340f or

    -replace also the case: what kind of business should I need that corresponds to the motherboard of benicia

    Thanks in advance

    The information below was previously published by Big_Dave in response to several other posters about their questions about GPU upgrades. Prices shown are in U.S. dollars and for American retailers.

    Your PC has a 350 Watt PSU if below video cards will work:

    $50--->NVIDIA GT 430 9.6 Gbps - single slot width

    $65--->NVIDIA GT 520 8 Gbps - single slot width

    $80--->NVIDIA GT 440 25.6 GB/s - single slot width

    $130-->NVIDIA GT 545 43 Gbps - location single width - could be hard to find but perhaps only in the store

    $110-->NVIDIA GT 240 1 GB DDR5. 54.4 GB/s - single slot width. This card does not support DirectX 11 which is eventually used in some of the latest PC games but it's a great performer.

    Review the performance of NVIDIA specifications. Look at the specifications of strip memory bandwidth and level of DirectX support.

    I normally don't recommend video cards AMD for PC with a 350 Watt power supply as AMD provides 400 watts or more for most of its video cards.

  • Pavilion Elite m9340f: m9340f windows version upgrade from Vista 64

    I bought the Pavilion Elite m9340f in 2008, and the computer continues to work very well with the originally installed Vista 64-bit.

    I get notifications that both IE-9 that Google-Chrome 48.0.2564.103 m are no longer in charge and not working properly with many Web sites.

    I see a lot of people on the forums of the historical problems with Windows 7, 8 and 10 updates on the m9340f.  The HP support site clearly states that the m9340f has not been tested with Windows 8, and I don't see anything about HP confirming the test he m9340f with Windows 7 or 10.

    I am very careful about the updates of Windows does not properly with the hardware configuration of m9340f.  Can someone please give me some advice on the modernization of this machine for a version of windows that will allow me to have the features Google Chrome and IE, but will not do something elese to become non-functional.

    Thanks in advance,

    dberberick

    dberberick,

    The main reason I don't like the upgrade, is that the problems you had with the previous operating system tend to make their way in the new OS. You also have the previous residual files, which can cause problems.

    (1) what would be the result?

    If you haven't experienced or unfamiliar problems with Windows Vista, the upgrade to Windows 7 should be simple and without problems during migration.

    (2) what version of Windows 7?

    Unless you need functions of class Affairs (unique encryption, join a domain, etc.), it is not really a necessity for professionals.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • I have a Pavilion Elite m9340f. I want to update my graphics card

    I have a Pavilion Elite m9340f and I was wondering if I could update my graphics card and if so what would be a good choice. Also can I upgrade my power supply?  A friend told me that I could not, because it's a computer brand, but thought I would ask someone with knowledge.  Thank you.

    Robert, here is a link to the "Product information" pages for your computer:

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/prodinfoCategory?LC=en&DLC=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=3740326

    These pages will give you all the specifications of your computer.

    Yes, you can upgrade your video card.  First, you want to make sure that there is enough room for one of the new cards to fit.  You can find this information on the manufacturer's website.  I would say we could use until a 9800GT.  I think the cards are 9 "up to 10.5".  I like XFX, BFG or EVGA cards.  They are geared toward players and are of high quality.  My favorite is XFX.

    Now for your power supply power supply unit (PSU).  It can also be upgraded.  the key is to open the case and measure the existing unit.  To ensure that new fits, it should be very close to the same size.  Most ATX units are pretty close to the same size.  I recommend at least a 600W unit.  This is what I have in my game rig:

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817341001

    Again, OCZ is a company that is geared to the players and fans.  They have very reliable products.  I have one in their PSU and memory.

    One last thought, a new video card will generate more heat.  Thus, some cables will be very useful.  Simply run all cables so that they do not restrict the airflow to all components.

    I hope this helps.

  • Pavilion Elite M9340f: Replacement hard drive

    Hard disk 750 MB Seagate (Baracuda 7200.11) is upward (lock or blue screen with one his jump).  Bought a new Seagate 1 TB (SATA) office drive to replace.  Recovery disks, format the new drive to 3/3 and then I get the error code 0 400 100 130000 1002 infamous x.  Says to contact HP.

    I think I need an OS disc.  However, I bought Vista with the machine but the OS disks have not been provided.  The software is on a patrician, on the failed drive, and I do not know the product key #.  Is there a way to save my OS or I have to buy new ones?  If Yes, I think I would upgrade to Windows 7.

    Hello

    If unallocated space is after the last partition and the last partition is the 'C' partition, then you can use disk management. If the last partition is HP tools or recovery then you can delete the partition by using Disk Management and then increase the size of the partition 'C '.

    BTW - VISTA does not support partition covering them.

  • PSC C4780 - connects to the wireless router, then disconnects, repeat...

    So I have a C4780 who knows a problem similar to what other people know about with different models.

    It seems that the printer cannot be connected to the router for more than 30 seconds.  I look at the screen of the printer and the intensity of the signal will be full one minute and gone the next minute.  Although full shell, I am able to connect to the Web site of the printer from my computer and print from my computer.  Whenever the signal goes, is my ability to communicate with him.  I use a Linksys WRK54G wireless router.   Also connected to it are my HP Pavilion dv7-1132nr laptop and my laptop Dell Inspiron 1545.  None of them lose connectivity to the router or the internet during this time.

    When I installed the printer, he gave me three errors.  He told me to unblock the following ports from my PC to my printer:

    UDP 427 @ 192.168.1.102

    TCP 9220 @ 169.254.21.72

    UDP 161 @ 169.254.21.72

    I tried in my firewall opening completely disabling the firewall.  No approach has worked.  I do believe however, that the problem is between my PC and the printer, but rather the router and the printer.  The printer doesn't keep in touch with the router or the router is not that the printer is connected to it.

    It's late and I have worked on throughout the day, including an hour and forty minutes on the phone with technical support.  If anyone can think of any I've left out (I know there are a lot), I will be happy to provide it.

    Thank you

    Kevin

    I've seen similar problems.  I have not found this problem completely, yet do not give you the "shotgun" perscription, but it is better than losing the use of the printer.

    The 169.254.x.y address is problematic for the driver software.  The following three things helped a lot other people.

    (1) give the printer a address static IP - one that sits on the right subnet (192.168.1.x)

    * You must enter your router AND the printer's IP address, if the router gives to someone else, and so the printer knows what it is.

    * I do not have the printer in front of me, model if you cannot figure it out, let me know and I'll find the instructions.  If you can not understand how to configure your router, I'll try to find a reference in the manual.

    (2) make sure that your computers have only a connection to your router.  If you're wired AND wireless to your router, it can be confusing network of driver code.

    3) go to your firewall and unlock things like Setup has loaded, but replace all references 169.254.x.y 192.168.1.102 (assuming that you give the printer the number 102 to step #1 above)

    That said, you may be right in your assertion that the problem is between the printer and the router.  Your description of the signal strength indicator is strange.  To what extent is your printer from the router?  How is that distance compares to other devices on your network?  There the walls or shelves between the router and the printer?

  • Hot spot creating with my elite m9340f PC

    can I create a reactive wireless home using my wireless desktop computer

    Hi Bilic,

    Yes, you can. You need a computer with an incoming connection (wired or wireless) and an outgoing antenna. You cannot use the same antenna as a receiver and transmitter at the same time, so basically, use cable for antenna to get out, or two wireless devices.

    No problem at all to set up a hotspot.

    I don't know already that you know how to do, so I don't post how-to.

    Good luck, wish you all the best!

  • HP Pavilion Elite m9340f desktop PC

    Someone at - it problems with this line of PC?

    My video fan sometimes makes noise and after 3 months, the power supply has failed. I know it's the power supply because I put a temp in and the PC is up and running. I opened a ticket with support because its under warranty and costs me nothing to replace. I had no trouble, trying to get this problem is resolved.

    After several days travel with email support, I called and had to start over. Looks like online support staff has not done the order. If I had to start over.

    At this point I should just run at the Compusa and buy a new power supply and the fan on the video card and just cut my losses and be happy.

    I understand that people are human, that I went through online support, so there was a lot of confusion and it was a mistake.

    Has anyone else had problems with this PC? I am a network analyst and work with HP and Compaq equipment for 10 years. RMA is nothing new for me, I have never had so much trouble getting something repaired. What is there much difference in home support and the company takes in charge?

    Sorry for the mug shot, its been a long day.

    Posts here are only my opinions, I do not work for HP and have no affiliation with HP other than owning a few home PC and support them here where I work.
    Well, the box is there, but I have a problem. I work in a clinic in IT and I connect to the VPN from this PC.
  • Blue screen of death, the Tecra M10 runing Win XP

    My Toshiba Tecra M10 works like a dream for three years without ever gasp

    Until the other day.

    My Toshiba laptop is constantly cycling with a BSoD - then I will start windows - it looks like it'll work - it gets in the paper password on screen - then a few blank screens - BSoD then again repeatedly

    I am running XP Pro SP 3

    I couldn't get my laptop to stop doing this, so I removed the battery and then the power cable and it started again and then when he went to BSoD I took a picture of the screen with my digicam fortunately I have one that focuses immediately and take the picture instantly too

    the ERROR is

    BAD_POOL_CALLER

    Tech Info

    STOP 0X000000C2 (0 X 00000043, 0XC38C0000, 0 X 00000000 0 00000000)

    I haven't changed anything on my PC recently and I have tried all the beginning of the top safe mode and last known good configuration but it still cycles round and round and round

    This laptop is not connected to anything and comes standard with a module of memory 2 MB in it to bog

    the last known good configuration does not either, nor did one of the other options in the "safe".

    So I slipped on the HARD drive and tried to boot from my XP CD - not the recovery of Toshiba, one that I have not tried this one in the laptop again.

    Rather unsurprisingly with no HARD drive in the laptop, I got a different error

    STOP 0X0000007B (0XF78D2524, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)

    which is I believe the inaccessible boot device - I know, it cannot see the HARD drive because it is sitting on my desk but would wait to boot from the XP CD... ISN'T IT?

    I tried to set all the parameters by default both boot - no difference

    With the HARD drive in - the laptop boots as windows user enter screen with no problems but doesn't stop on this screen - after a few screens blank the BSoD comes up and off it goes again.

    In the advanced startup options, I changed auto-start on setting error so it does not loop forever. and this prevents loop to the start cycle... seems to be changing this setting is not a permanent change

    Then I went into the BIOS and under the mode of the SATA AHCI to IDE controller and the STOP error 0x0000007B (0xF78D2524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) is gone now and the pc will try to install Windows until I need to see the HARD drive and then gives up trying to install XP with a no. HHD error (the HHD is based of course on my desk) so it was a valid error expected...
    put the HARD return drive without changing the BIOS back makes it appear the STOP 0x000000C2 (0 x 00000043, 0xC38C0000, 0 x 00000000 0x00000000) error

    HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP please

    Hello

    I think you should test the HARD drive don't you agree?
    In my opinion, this should be the first part that should be checked since the new operating system installation was not possible

    I recommend the use of the tool called: HDD Drive Fitness Test. This software creates a bootable floppy to test. You can use this disk to run a test HARD drive without installation of any system.

    If the error would be detected: replace the HARD drive.
    If no error would be: use the Toshiba Recovery disk in order to install the system. (don t forget to put back the BIOS to default)
