HP Pavilion Elite 400Y: Disabling graphics

Someone told me that I can disable edge grasphics and replace it with another card.  Is this true and how do I do this?

GAO1014, welcome to the forum.

Yes, you can add a dedicated to your computer video card.  When installed the integrated graphics subsystem is disabled automatically.  Here's a card EVGA that should work on your computer.  I was told that it should work with 300W power supply (PSU) in the computer.  Any map that was newer requires UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.

    Hello

    I put upgraded my computer to windows 7 64-bit home premium.  I have just a nvidia geforce gt 610 that does not play well with the computer as it is.   disk failures and crashing.

    You would be better served by the following: 1) 600W PSU Corsair and 660) 2 of the card EVGA GTX.

    Your GS 8400 original is in the margins of the GT 610.  Not really an upgrade.  Although the GTX 660 declares a min of 450W, your drives additional all add up to the load.  Collectively 'we' usually recommend air power.  This allows the new PSU to run time 1) better and 2) more effectively.

    Now on this OS, good choice.  You will have until 2020, before there is no support.   You will have until the 29/07/2016to upgrade to WIN10, if you want, for free.  I would upgrade the new SSD for WIN 7.  Then clone it on the original HD.  This way you will have WIN 7 on the original hard drive, the system security.

  • HP Pavilion Elite HPE-400Y no video output.

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion Elite HPE-400Y computer that I had stored (unplugged) in a bedroom closet bedroom for almost a year.  It was working fine when I put it in storage.

    This past weekend, I wanted to use, so I plugged in and connected to an analog VGA monitor well known on the integrated motherboard video VGA analogue connector.  When I turned on, there is no video on the monitor.  I searched the HP support site and found a statement that said "built into the graphics card or the card PCI Express x 16 slot are usable at once; they are not usable at the same time. "This computer came with a 5450 PCI express X 16 video card installed.

    However, the 5450 PCI express X 16 video card only has a digital DVI and I wanted to use a loose analog VGA monitor.  So I powered it turned off and physically removed the 5450 PCI express X 16 video card.  Then I unplugged the power cord and removed the CMOS battery for a few minutes.  Then I replaced the battery and applied again to power.

    I still do not get all analog VGA video out of the motherboard, not even the BIOS messages it is first energized.

    I also tried to integrated edge connector with a DVI equipped, monitor.  Still, there is no video output.

    So I removed the power and re-installed the 5450 PCI express X 16 video card that has only a DVI connector.  I connected to a monitor DVI equipped and applied again to power.  There is still no video output was two well-known instructors.

    When I turn on the computer, the fan power works, processor and fans of casing run, the blue led on the switch is lit and not blinking.  The Green LED on the motherboard is on.  The Green orange and activity led Ethernet link light are on.  There are no beeps.  I can hear the hard drive starts to work.  I have no video output.

    I use a HP USB keyboard and a USB mouse.  The red LED at the bottom of the mouse is not on.  The shift lock and lock lights number do not light when you press the corresponding key.

    This computer has spent more time of storage that it has been used.  It worked even when stored in a bedroom closet in bedroom.  I checked all the wire connections on the motherboard, with no improvement.

    I would like any suggestions to get this working of the computer.  I wonder if the motherboard has somehow that went wrong.

    Thank you for your help.

    Hello Big Dave,

    Thank you for answering my question / problem.

    I am aware that I can not use an analog VGA connection on the motherboard for a digital DVI input on my LCD monitor and vice versa.  I tried two different montors both analog and digital connections on the motherboard.  I tried to communicate clearly, but I guess that I don't have.

    It is unimportant, now that I've found that HP recognizes that my computer model had a drawing or a manufacturing defect that causes the exact symptoms I am having.  There is here a link to HPs extended warranty program that describes the patterns and symptoms:

    No, the GTX 950 requires UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  There is no way to update the motherboard in the UEFI.  Latest video cards do not for UEFI were the GTX 660/670.  I suggest that you choose a manufacturer and contact their Technical Support to help them choose the best card for your system.

    You will also need to upgrade the power supply (PSU).  It is only 300W.  Most newer cards require at least 400W to work properly.  Although status map specifications at least 300 w, members reported that they had at least to 400W.

    Hi there @LeoOfMars

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, so many other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff. I understand that you are looking to find out if a video card is compatible with your information system. I'm happy to help you with that.

    The main reasons to be sure of are normally feeding you, special (to THE) cable power supply for the graphics card, on the motherboard compatible expansion slot, the drivers for your operating system, another thing to know is the physical size of the map, for moments of cases.

    Looking at the specs of your system and the motherboard by default, I listed the type of slot of power and expansion.

    HP Pavilion Elite e9180t Desktop PC product specifications and configurable Options

    Output power of power: 460 Watt

    HP and Compaq desktop PC - specifications of the motherboard, IPMTB-TK (Truckee)

    Two graphics PCI Express 2.0 x 16 (for graphics cards)

    Go to the video card you are looking at:

    GTX 780 3072 MB GDDR5 PCI-E 3.0 OC Custom cooled graphics card

    Input power: 1 x 8-pin auxiliary input aux input 1 x 6-pin
    Bus type: PCI-Express 3.0 16 x

    System requirements:
    Mother compatible PCI Express with a slot of chart double-width x 16
    Power 600W minimum (with a minimum of 12V current rating of 42A) 3
    300 MB of available disk space
    2 GB of memory system (4 GB or more recommended)
    Microsoft Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP Operating System (32 or 64-bit)
    DVD-ROM drive or Internet connection for installation
    DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort or VGA compatible monitor

    So on a quick inspection of both devices there are three problems, so this card will not work on your motherboard or with the current power.

    I hope this helps.

  • New graphics card for HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t

    Hi, I'm getting artifacts screen sporadically, Ithink my video card is starting to go bad. I want to get a new one, but I do not know what will fit. My computer HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t:

    • Intel Core i7 - 860 quad-core processor [2.8 GHz, 1 MB L2 + 8 MB of cache N3 shared]
    • 8 GB DDR3 1333 MHz SDRAM

    • Player 15-in-1 memory cards, 1 USB, 1394, audio
    • No TV Tuner
    • Creative Sound Blaster X - Fi Titanium

    I see by a few other questions here several cards video suggested, but these responses were a few years old and these video cards are no longer available.

    So, any suggestions on the new video cards less than $200, which will be more apt to little and works as easily as possible? Thank you!

    OK, I got my new video card, to be exact of it:

    http://www.Amazon.com/XFX-250E-800MHz-graphics-R7250EZNP4/DP/B00JM5XX9O/ref=dp_ob_title_ce

    It works like a champ! Took me about 5 minutes to install the card physically and 15 minutes to install all drivers and updates.

    So far so good - everything seems OK, so if anyone is looking for a video card for this configuration, it worked for me.

  • A faulty graphics card replace in my HP Pavilion Elite m9361.uk-

    Hello

    Consult this document publication.  Do you have room for a double wide graphics card? If there is a PCI-E card, installed in the location adjacent then can you move on?

    Someone earlier posted a similar question and did not upgrade the power supply and, in addition, necessary in a single location graphic card. Hmmmm, I found a solution for this problem, but it was a challenge. You can search the forum and see if you can find the solution.

  • HP Pavilion Elite HPE 547c: upgrade graphics card for HP Elite

    I tried to replace/upgrade to update my graphics card for my desktop PC. I tried several video cards, but with each one, once it is installed and the computer turned on, the image does not register with the monitor. Everything else seems to work, but the monitor gives no answer. It was only a problem once the original video card has been removed. The current video card, I am trying to install is the NVIDIA GEFORCE GT 730.

    In the course of the years, I added a memory and the power supply has been upgraded, but all the rest are always original parts (http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-Elite-HPE-Desktop-PC-series/5035344/model/5074426/do...

    Is this a problem with the other parties, who will need to be replaced or is there something else I forget?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    You're dominant, in your case, the most important factor-BIOS compatibility... more recent maps, like the gt730, require the UEFI BIOS to run... you have a LEGACY BIOS system, and cannot do anything, unless you change your motherboard... your pc is a model of early 2011... UEFI standard HP in their systems of end of 2012...

    You can watch other maps, if... the 700 series card youre looking at is a maxwell model 2014... There are in this region that come with a feature of hybrid bios which offers wider compatibility on legacy systems... or you can look at maps more old pascal/fermi architecture that work exclusively on legacy BIOS systems...

    Hope this helps

  • HP Pavilion Elite HPE - 590uk Desktop PC - graphics card

    Hello

    I have a 'HP Pavilion Elite HPE - 590uk Desktop PC' and seeks to update the graphics card - what is the maximum power of the graphics card can I install? The 420 has a request of 50W - would I be able to switch to a 660GTX to 150W?

    Hello

    The HPE-590uk PC has a 460 watt power supply with a 1 connector PCI-E 6-pin power supply. When considering a graphics card, it is always best to consider the recommendation of power supply as indicated by the manufacturer of the graphics card.

    Consult this publication articleand a measure inside your PC.

    There are a lot of different brands and models of the NVIDIA GTX 660.  The reference of the models are rated at 140 watts to several do not require a 450 Watt power supply.  Looking for a model that is 9.5 "or less in length.

    These articles HOWTO HPshould be useful.

  • 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.

  • Updated my graphics card for HP Pavilion Elite e9107c?

    Hi all

    I want to update my graphics card for my computer, I can barely run settings means on most games these days, I never upgraded a computer in front of either, this was pre-built.

    I am aware that the case is really small, but I'm not interested to buy a new computer/case. I want to just buy a graphics card and a power supply so I can run games like Guild Wars 2 and BF3 on medium-high settings. My computer can not handle same BF3 with resolution of 800 x 600, with windows, and graphic down, I get 10 frames per second at most out of it.

    Then I would ask, what is the best graphics card that can fit in my computer? And her appropriate food to go with it?

    TECHNICAL DATA:

    Computer name: HP Pavilion Elite e9107c

    Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200(2.33GHz)

    Graphics card: ATI Radeon HD 4350

    Power: 300W

    Motherboard:

    RAM: 8 GB

    32-bit operating system - Windows 7

    I am sure that all this is true, if I'm wrong, you can check online, its pre-built and I have not touched since.

    I don't know what my motherboard, is the one that comes with the computer, I found this out of a site, and I think it's good, I'm not too sure:

    Motherboard - PEGATRON CORPORATION / model: 1.01 Eureka3

    I know either the size of the card, or the power supply.

    Whatever it is it would help a lot! My computer is already 3 years old, and I can not play games like TF2 and Skyrim above 800 x 600 with the everything low-medium settings by getting 20 + FPS.

    Thanks in advance for the answers, I will add more information, if I listed those are not sufficient.

    Navibol,

    Looking at your specifications and the requirements of the games you listed, BF3 is most intense.

    (1) you must measure the length available. See here

    (2) I would recommend the EVGA GTX560 or GTX560Ti, see here

    3) the minimum POWER supply: 560 suggests a 450W power supply, the 560Ti suggests 500W PSU.

    I would say the Rosewill 630 or Corsair 600 . I'm the Rosewill this bias.

  • The HP Pavilion Elite 340uk graphics card upgrade

    Hi guys, im using a HP Pavilion Elite 340uk desktop computer that came with a Geforce GT320 video card. The map is gone... dead disappeared and I'm looking for a better replacement. Can I get some suggestions of compatible with my motherboard (MS-7613) graphics cards. ? So, if I change this card with a better, should I upgrade of feeding as well? Thanks for your help.

    Hello:

    My recommendation would be to get a GT430... you won't need to change the P/S.

    Just make sure you get one with an interface 128-bit for the best performance memory (I think there may be a few models with a 64-bit memory interface).

    can be a suitable replacement.

    Excellent choice. The card fits, and your power supply meets the minimum required.
