HP Pavilion a6317c and 3 monitors

Should what graphics card I connect 3 monitors HP Pavilion a6317c and play games

ATI and NVIDIA make some video cards in support of the monitors connected in native mode.

The power supply of your Pc will be replaced with 500 watts model +. Your PC was built at the end of 2007 but the PCI-E x 16 slot could not handele card PCI-E 2.1 spec'd. Some of the new video cards are compatible bachward and some are not.

You need to open your PC and measure the physical dimensions of your diet.  Here is a list of the things to consider:

  1. Specifications
  2. Total power - important
  3. amperage 12 + v - important
  4. Modular - is not required, but I like the flexibility
  5. Warranty
  6. I7 and SLI ready
  7. Efficiency rating
  8. Cost
  9. The physical size - standard ATX PSU is 5.5 "by 5.9" by 3.4 "give or take a few tenths

www.Newegg.com has many choices of power supplies.  Corsair, OCZ, Rosewill, Thermaltake...

Unplug your computer and open it. Read the label on the power supply unit (PSU).  What is the total power and amperage on the bus + 12 volt?  The amount of amperage + 12 volts is important when choosing a video card.

  • No signal between Pavilion dv4 and TV with HDMI cable

    Hello

    I have a Pavilion dv4 and a Samsung Smart TV. Two days ago, I was enjoying happily successful between the two with a connection cable HDMI. Now, the connection no signal. Here are some facts:

    -The correct TV settings are selected.

    -I don't think it's a problem of cable, as the cable and TV connection to a different device port work.

    -When I shut down the computer and restart, the image of the start screen appears on the TV, but the computer screen is black. Then the TV goes black and the screen with my password. So, if I unplug and re - plug the HDMI cable, I get the error "no signal".

    -I am tired on the installation of plug-ins or drivers because the connection work successfully only two days ago (although I will say that there are updates installed between the last time that the connection was successful and now). But if this is what will fix the problem, then I'm game.

    I'd like opinions and advice. Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I connect HDMI permanently to a screen (TV, IE) and I use the monitor 2 only. Everything turns on the external display.

    Kind regards.

  • X 230, Intel HD 4000, dock and three monitors, how?

    Hello

    I just got new X 230 (makes 12/12). It has intel HD 4000 and processor i7-3xxx-series.

    I also got dock (the usb3 support).

    I have foud some topics saying that x 230 would support 3 monitors, but how?

    I have 3 x full HD monitors, 2 of them is connected with other with VGA and DVI to dock to dock.

    Windows screen settings allows me to activate the 3 monitos, but custom 3rd "wake up" and after that windows manager reopenin of screen it says that 3rd monitor is "disconnected". The Intel tool provides only option for 2 monitors.

    So, it is possible to activate the 3rd monitor?

    Hey there styleza,

    Thanks for clarifying the dock you are using by comparing what you found there to the PSRef for your machine, it doesn't seem to be the case. The PSRef States:

    "Intel HD Graphics 4000 in processor, supports external analog monitor via VGA and digital monitor via Mini Display Port; supports two independent screens. "Research on all for X 230 PSRef sheets, I agree, it doesn't seem Optimus technology was available for this machine as all PSRef sheets I could find for X 230 different configurations list only the Intel HD Graphics 4000. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

    At the very least, I hope this clarifies things for you.

    I have a HP Pavilion a6000 and you want to add a new WD Blue 1 TB hard and clone (including OS) the old 250 GB hard drive to the new drive and then use the old drive for music.  What should I do?

    You are welcome.

    Sorry, but I can't help you with the question about the SATA motherboard ports - hopefully someone else can help you here.

    However, for cloning, you can use a USB cable to SATA, with which you can connect your hard drive to the USB port on the computer and transfer all the data from the old to the new drive.

  • Reliablity and performance monitor is empty

    I was just playing on Vista, now that I finally got and decided to launch the performance and reliability monitor to see why my computer was using up to 1.6 GB of RAM at idle. Not that she really bothers me or hurts my performance of the computer (after x 64 windows and 6 GB of RAM), but after opening it, I was a little confused because nothing was actually happening. I went to the monitor tab, you press start, but who have done nothing. I also tried to pass through the computer management program, but the same exact results. The work of monitors of reliability and performance, but the main screen, which shows the performance used by individual programs won't give me empty graphs, of the options and outcomes - although lack of. Any help would be great.

    This is just a screenshot of what happens:

    Hi Jill,

    Please note that in order to have more than 2 monitor Setup, it is essential that the video card on your laptop actually supported the possibility of having 4 monitors. Most of the high-end video cards supports the option double screen.

    You can even confirm by contacting the manufacturer.

  • Pavilion a6110n and AMD Virtualization

    TECHNICAL DATA: AMD Athlon 64 X 2 processor Dual - Core 4400 + 2.30 GHz

    This processor supports AMD - V?

    Can it be enabled in the BIOS?  If so, what is the procedure?

    Thank you

    Here is a link that can answer your question:

    What I can see, it seems that only Opterons support AMD - V.  Opterons are made to be used in servers.  They will work in desktop computers, but AMD does not provide support for them in this environment.  You can read the information in the link that I provided to see if you can find other CPUS that have.

  • I have a hp pavilion a6325 and my graphics card is fried what graphics card is compatible

    I have a hp pavilion a6325 and my graphics card is fried what graphics card is compatible? the old card is a nvidea geforce8500gt but these seem difficult to obtain now. If I wanted to update that is not compatible. C.P. specification is as follows.

    Yes, you could install maps better with a more solid food.

    The card I have chosen for you will work with the P/S of 300W to your PC.

    I have never installed a power improved in any of my PC, so I can't be a great help for you there.

    But if you get the right one that matches all connections from your PC, and fits in place of the current one, you, you should not need to buy anything others.

  • Black glitter and LED monitor S2440L screen

    I have a new LED monitor from Dell which flickers to a black screen during market for a few seconds and then turns back on. I can't understand why this happens. It happened when my monitor has been connected to the slot built in HDMI on my motherboard. And it always happens when I connect the monitor to the HDMI slot on my new NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 of ASUS graphics card that I bought recently. My motherboard is the ASUS P8Z68 - VLX running Windows 7 with an Intel i5 processor. DELL LED monitor is S2440L. Anyone experience this state of the black screen that comes at random on the time where to watch movies or even surf the net.

    Hello

    I have the same problem as you with my L-2440. The screen flickers and sometimes it's curtains blackout for a few seconds. I think this problem for this monitor is not an isolated case, because many people complained the same problem.

    I have noticed before I installed driver Dell and Dell monitors management program, this problem does not exist. Admittedly, I don't use 1 hour after the introduction if theres no way to be sure about that. Anyway I uninstalled both and use the driver default Windows (generic PnP monitor) and disable DDC/DCI under 'Other settings' in the configuration, monitor and now dancing lines are for the most part disappeared (sometimes but rarely sound still there), but black still happen.

    After experience, it turns out that it is related to electrical installation of the dwelling. Whenever someone support some switch in my house (On or Off), the screen will be black without fault. Im sure this model in particular have some bad Earth or something since I have never experience such problem in previous Dell monitor that I own or any other device. Try it yourself and make people put the switch in your home.

    I am awaiting response to Dell too because it is the time of 2md my monitor is replaced (totally busted S2320L and cannot be turned on) and Dell replaced by 2440L as the third replacement. Anyway Im afraid it will break the monitor sooner or later and I'm inclined to return it...
