It has Windows 7, 64 - bit.

Finally, after many hours while the computer could not start, although it was by train and running, I did the following:

1. the stop (press the button).

2. turn on once again.

3. press F8 immediately.

4a through identification procedures.

5. select restore system to a previous state.

6. Select the date when the system works properly.

7 follow the guests.

This process has been successfully completed and the computer is now able to start properly again by itself (not necessary recovery disc).

I would like to thank HP support for their initial contribution to this problem.

  • 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 dv6 3100: unable to start pavilion dv6 3100 again clone Samsung ssd 850 evo

    Im trying to upgrade the HDD to the SSD.  Tried a Samsung ssd - 850 EVO 500 GB after cloning, using Samsung data migration software.  However, Windows will not start since the new cloned ssd.  I get a black sreen showing, "windows does not have start message and all... and shows--

    File:------Boot\BCD.

    Status: 0x000000f.

    Info: an error occurred while trying to read the boot configuration data. »

    Samsung Wizard is not able to find data on the ssd.  I looked up and gathered a lot of information and did everything I could.  Disk Manager recognizes the device when connected via USB (for cloning).  Device Manager displays the storage as -«IDE...» SATA/AHCI controller... ».   I enabled AHCI in the regedit - the HKEY_LOCAL... Msahci, IastorV, etc.  I also updated all the possible drivers and firmware and BIOS (f29).  Yet once the ssd is connected and placed in the drive Bay, Windows just would not start.

    I'm an amateur, pretendng to be an "expert"!

    Someone please help!

    Ive been away for a few days.  Sorry for this late reply.

    I have treid sfc/scannow - did not work.  Not sure it'll work, I was not ready to move to another

    $50 on Acronis software cloning.  So, in the end, I opted for a clean install of windows7 operating system, using my own system recovery disks that I created previously.

    Every thing looks and works perfectly.  Samsung magician is able to detect the ssd by his real name (and not as ASMT 2115) and also shows that the AHCI is enabled. The time spent was worthwhile.

    Thank you.

  • Pavilion Elite m9600t will not start

    Symptoms: green light on PSU on, when the power button, fan starts briefly but turns in a few seconds, the power button / go to yellow to blue. Green light on the power supply goes off as does the light on the power button. System is then recycled; Power supply turns on, button / stop lights up blue, fan starts... Etc. no beeps. Tried to clean the dust, reset by pressing the power button / stop for 30 seconds. etc., no change. Haven't tried filing a brief and sectioning to the parties as the workspace is low. Any ideas?

    UPDATE: tried at first to replace the power supply. Apparently, this solves the problem. The computer was for two days now, so that this question should be marked resolved.

    Thanks for your reply. AS stated above, I replaced the power supply, which seems to have solved the problem.

  • 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.

    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.

    Hello
    I bought gtx 1060 to my hp pavilion elite hpe 500cs pc, but I can't front the start screen (cannot even get into the bios settings). I inherited bios with the latest version 7.15 which is avalible for my motherboard. The card worked on power and different Mr. b. is sufficient. I also have 1 beep, that the long break and followed 3 short and fast beeps long beep.

    Any ideas?

    Your comparison of different systems and not being is not specific about the other tested machine.  It is like comparing a Citroën with a Renault. (Could not stop myself, realizing your in CS).  The HPE 500cs, as you say, is Legacy BIOS.  The new GTX 1060 is UEFI and would not work in the HPE without a hybrid BIOS from the manufacturer of the card.
