• HP Pavilion HPE h8 - 1380t CTO: compatibility problems, ask questions about knitting-by-turn or possible motherboard replacement.

  I recently baught an EVGA GTX 1060, as this 630 became quite long in the tooth and I thought that I would try to future proof myself a little as the rest of my components seem to be working very well.  However, I can't get the map to work correctly on this particular computer.  Oddly enough, I can get past that screen startup finally after several short beeps and let it sit, but it takes fowever to reach the office and clearly is not executed properly that the resolution is wobbly and software from Nvidia cannot even detect the card.  I guess I had got this far because of the onboard graphics of some sort, but AFAIK this motherboard which lacks.

  I know that the card works fine as I tested it in my other Tower, so I struggled to find a solution.  So far, it seems that the problem is most likely the motherboard, as HP does not have a new BIOS for it since the beginning of 2013 (which I did go ahead and install it).  If true, I find myself with either two options, it seems that the ditch system, entirely or find a motherboard that works with all my old components.  I'd rather not have to empty this workaholic, when all other parts work great, if it is not a work around I would like to know if there are motherboards I could pass that would work with the rest of my components.  Normally I would not bother with even apply for, but I hear a lot of chatter on HP PCs pre-constructed having compatibility problems.

  I bought this computer there is in the case of four years that I would be able to update as I do with any other PC, but I didn't know at the time that HP has a tendency to not update the BIOS settings for anything beyond a year which I admit is incredibly frustrating.  What is done is done however, and I want to make this work without having to clear the entire system.

  @Faver, welcome to the forum.

  Your problem is the BIOS.  However, it is because the 1060 GTX requires UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard/Legacy BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  The BIOS may not be upgraded in the UEFI.  The last cards only not for UEFI were the GTX 660/670.

  MSI made cards with a switch that can be used with a Legacy BIOS or UEFI.  If you decide to go this way, you must contact their Technical Support to help them choose the best card for your system.

  The upgrade of the motherboard can be a problem.  HP has taken advice their specifications.  Therefore, they are not necessarily the same as the commercial versions.  Please make sure that the holes in the motherboard matches the accessory in the case.  In addition, some members have had problems with the connectors in the connections case before, for example, the power button.

  After an error message, on the fan and case fan noise I replaced the AVC DS09225R12MC234 DC 12V case fan 0. 3A with a Startech.com FAN9X25TX3H case fan.

  A program to monitor I have shows an increase in rpm of the system another fan. I'm trying to find out if my new fan is correct or adequate propper case fan.

• Pavilion HPE h8z cannot connect to the router to 1000Mb

  Pavilion HPE h8z

  Windows 7 (all updates including updated network driver)

  Router: RV220W Cisco

  Cable: Cat 6

  Any new system.  All the network settings on the PC and the router are "out of the box '.  The system will not connect to 1000 Mb (Gigabit), even if the other 2 on the same router (1 XP, Linux 1) connect without any problems.  Swapped cable and ports without difference,

  And before anyone asks, it that a Realteck Gigabit Ethernet chip on the motherboard.

  Tech came out at 08:00 as expected.  Replaced motherboard.  We have video, we have Gigabit Ethernet.

  HP should really look at this whole incident.  In addition to taking almost 4 weeks to fix the problem and let the client without computer running for more than 10 days, this event has cost thousands of dollars support HP.

  Process of elimination said that it was a hardware problem. IMHO, this kind of problem should have been taken before his departure from the factory (certainly not a HP has / operates the plant).

  If HP has spend this amount of resources to solve this kind of problem, it is not surprising that they want to get out of the PC business.

  Hard drive:

  I was wondering if this unit can use an SSD?

  Thanks for your comments

  Hello

• Pavilion HPE h8-1330z CTO: video card dying fan, tried to replace the card, the computer does not start

  This Pavilion comes preinstalled with a nVidia GeForce GT 630 graphics card. The fan on the card goes bad - the card smells "burny" when I run, the fan works really hard and the computer crashes while playing graphics-heavy games.

  I tried replacing a PNY Verto GeForce GT 730 2048 MB DDR3 card. But now, with the Verto installed, my flag starts, it crashes just on the HP splash screen. I can not start safe mode nor can I access the BIOS settings.

  Care of the Verto seemed to think it would work in my Pavilion - PCIe 2.0, at least 300W PSU. I searched online for help but can't find a solution for my problem.

  Any tips?

  I checked the support page for my Pavlillion and I noticed a updated driver for my computer's BIOS. I installed and it seems to have solved the problem.

• HP Pavilion HPE h8 - 1260t CTO: stuck at the screen with the words "Press ESC for Boot Menu" on the bottom

  I unplugged the graphics card to clean dust. After that I connected everything again, he stuck to the blue screen with the words "Press ESC for Boot Menu" on the bottom. If I press ESC at the beginning, it will go to a black screen and it will show the basic information of the computer (information about the processor and memory). It also show this black screen, "Press ESC for Boot Menu" on the bottom and it will show "Start menu" in the lower right corner. If I press F8 at the beginning, it's going to be the same black screen, but it does not "Start menu" show in the lower right. If I press F10 at the beginning, it will go to the same black screen, and it will show "setup" in the lower right. Can someone help me solve this problem? And thank you very much!

  So I suggest to look at the following and try to 'Clear the CMOS settings' as described at the bottom of the page: HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - specifications of the motherboard, IPISB-CH2 (Chicago).  Then see if there is no change at all.  If there is no improvement, then use the following http://www.hp.com/contacthp, fill in the form, create a folder for your question and then use the information to contact HP.

• HP Pavilion HPE h8-1200z CTO: update Win10 support video card power not on

  I need to upgrade to Win10. The current GeForce 7500 video in my HP Pavilion H8 1200z is not supported, and Nvidia is not writing a new driver for it.

  I bought a PowerColor Radeon HD5450 1 GB which is supported by Win10.

  My system will not produce any video when turned on after installing the HD5450 video card.

  There was a suggestion elsewhere on the web that I may need to update the MB BIOS to take in charge this "so-called" compatible PCIe card back.

  There is no latest BIOS listed on the site of HP for this Gigabyte MB support.

  Is it possible to get this video update of work in my PC?

  Yes, I'm puzzled as to why it doesn't work anymore.  Maybe try a Geforce 5 * series or 6 * series card that also supports Windows 10.  The real card that has begun is problem is not a great artist, then maybe a lower in the 5 * or Geforce card 6 * series will do.

• HP Pavilion HPE h8-1150z CTO D: which USB-3 PCI Card

  I would like to upgrade computer (add) USB-3 to my existing. Which USB-3 PCI card (make and model) would be compatible with my computer?   Is there anything that should be avoided?   The card may only be installed or is there some other changes/upgrades necessary to make it work correctly?

  #HPExpertDay

  Yes, you can add USB 3.0, but it would work in 2.0 as the motherboard must be able to do.

  So you would need a powered USB hub.

• HP Pavilion HPE h9-1100: Installation of the graphics card... Screen is not displayed. NEED SERIOUS HELP!

  Hi, so I recently got a new "XFX Radeon R9 285" graphic card PCI - E 3.0 and installed in my PC, I went to start it and the screen does not light. The PC boots, the fans run and everything just no display. It works with two other Radeon PCI-E graphics cards, but it does not start. 285 graphics card works in another computer, but will not work on this one. I tried to uninstall the old graphics card drivers and no luck.

  OTHER MUCH OLDER BUT WORKS

  Thank you for the additional information.

  Since you had the card running in another computer, you must have connected the two power connectors 6 pins.

  If it were me, I would XFX Service contact customer (800-880-3225) to see what they have to say about your problem.  It may be a BIOS problem.  They need the specifications of your computer.

• The sidebar will not clear history, even after deletion of history, how to erase the sidebar history?

  Even after the erasure of history (FireFox 6.0.2) the sidebar history contains a story of friends.

  After you remove each item individually and say things to forget to each site, they all return.

  Any ideas on how to clear the history sidebar?

  One possible cause is a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

• Some items on the page will not be printed - even in pdf format!

  I'm kinda a newbie on Indesign (much better in Photoshop) and this is driving me crazy.  It's never happened before.

  I have a two page CMYK document.

  A part of the text (modified with pen base, transparency and angle) and the graphic still refuses printing, our laser printer or even in pdf format.

  A page prints perfect, the only other partially prints.  Both images and text.

  Any thoughts?

  (Work on CS4 on Windows XP Pro)

  If you want to make a PDF, export (to say "High quality print") do not print in PDF format.  Then try to print.  It could be that your printer is having problems with transparency should contribute to the export to PDF format.  You may need to use the parameter PDFx-1a if your printer drivers are quite old.

  If they are not there in the exported PDF objects may have a nonprintable attribute set, you can see this by selecting the element and looking at the attributes Panel.
