HP Pavilion Elite m9040n Desktop PC card mother Layout

I have a desktop HP m9040n and was tinkering autour inside. Long story short, I don't remember where the 2 hard drives and the cd player plug on the motherboard. All 3 are sata and can't seem to understand what command and ports as sata cables plug in. If someone could help me out here, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Bostel, when you look at the motherboard in the case, the lower right corner is where the Sata ports.

The port0 is on the right of the Sata ports closer to the top of the Board of Directors. This is the port where the hard drive0 or hard drive must be connected to.

The port in front is where I connect the second hard drive and the port under the port1 is where to connect the DVD player.

It was suggested that the Sata port0 is the boot hard drive port, but I connected the hard disks and DVD drives at all of these ports at one time or another and found no difference in the performance of the system.

This could make a slight difference if you have the hard drive configured in a Raid array.

  • HP Pavilion Elite m9040n Desktop and Fire Wire 1394

    I have the above mentioned Office. It has a plugin from 1394 to the front of the case. The Pavilion comes with all the software to pull wire work? I backed up my hard drive on a Toshiba external drive with a USB cable, the other day and it took 6 hours. Is not fire wire suppost to transfer data faster than a USB cable? Are there special things I need to know when buying FireWire 1394.

    I was looking on the internet the other day and they showed the son of fire with pins 4 and 6. Looking into the hole on my computer, it only looks like 3 terminals?

    Thank you

    Rick, welcome to the forum.

    There is no necessary software for Firewire (IEEE 1394-a).  The driver is installed with the operating system.

    Here is the page of the following motherboard for the computer.  It only shows that there is a Firewire (IEEE 1394) (# 11) port in return IO ports.

    Here is an article that shows the comparison of speed vs. Firewire USB.  FireWire was developed by Apple.

  • Running 4 monitors 1920 x 1200 on a Pavilion Elite I7 desktop PC (a double graphics - GTS 250 cards)

    Update (November 14, 2011): there is a happy ending at the bottom of this thread. In a Word, I needed to upgrade my 700W power and install a ~ XFX HD 6870 (AMD/ATI) $ 200 video card, connect 2 monitors to 6870's connectors 2 mini DisplayPort and connect the other 2 monitors to 6870's DVI connectors.

    In the original post, I went to get a second GTS 250 but I was able to do it with a single card.

    Original message:

    I have already noticed that my system (HP Pavilion Elite e9180f desktop PC) supports dual Nvidia GTS 250 in the thread next where I'm looking for advice for upgrading my system to 4 monitors:

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/desktop-monitors-and-video/how-do-I-upgrade-my-Pavilion-to-4-monitors/t...

    I need to buy a second card Nvidia GTS 250, but they are hard to find.

    The 250 GTS that came with the PC has 1 GB or RAM on it. I've only been able to find a 250 GTS with 512 MB of RAM above. Both cards will co-exist on my system if I can run 4 monitors?

    I'm tempted to just bite the bullet and order 2 new cards as the GTS 250 that I find can take up to two weeks to get.

    Can anyone recommend a modern replacement model for the GTS 250 (1 GB RAM) I can buy 2 and then installed in my machine (Elite e9180f) with a minimum of hassle?

    I ordered (and received) a new PSU POWER 750 watt and 3 additional monitors to 24 "(et un stand)."

    Thank you

    Because I'm a spread for the penalty, I went ahead and ordered the XFX HD 6870 and returned the XFX HD 6850.

    Only after you have installed the 6870 I realized this video card requires 2 PCI express power connectors. Of course, my stock PSU only has a PCI express slot so I went down to Staples and bought a power supply 700W (a RetailPlus PS700W). I installed myself (without the help of a technician that I had seen what the technician had to do when I hired one to try to replace the stock power supply with a Corsair 750W) and it worked. It was last Thursday and the machine works since then.

    The 3 HP ZR24w monitors I ordered came with a regular DisplayPort cable but I needed 2 Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable. I have ordered them to my place of local parts (OEM Express) and they came today.

    I plugged praying them, and then they played.

    So to get 4 monitors running a single card, I had to put my diet to 700 watts, install a XFX HD 6870 (it's a Radeon ATI/AMD with 2 x connectors DVI, an HDMI connector and mini 2 DisplayPort connectors) and order 3 HP ZR24w monitors. 2 monitors should be connected via the adapter mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cables and the other 2 are connected via DVI.

    From what I can tell, HD 68 x series video cards can drive only 2 DVI monitors at a time and if you need at least 2 aswell able DisplayPort monitors.

    Final update

    Thus, the slot and off tension of the issue was due to a fault on the motherboard.  In order to get what they functional system once again I have had to replace the motherboard and video card (I don't know why, but this card is not as well).  I also replaced both of the hard drives, upgrade to the C: 1.5 TB drive and a D: 2 TB drive and power.  I bought a new copy of windows 7 64 bit and did a new install and updated all the drivers.  I was able to transfer all of our data, photos, music, etc. among the old readers on the nine with an external SATA cable.

    I'm happy to be up and running again but in hindsight, I have pretty much rebuilt all of the computer.  I hope that this will last a few years.

You can use two monitors DVI - D DVI cable with a DVI-HDMI cable. You can also use a monitor VGA and HDMI or DVI - D and VGA monitor with appropriate adapters and/or cable. Please provide the brand and models of two monitors for most accurate response.

  • 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

    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.
