• Pavilion p6 - 2020t: HP-Pavilion will identify the new graphics card

  Hello

  I got a HP Pavilion for a few years now and never updated my BIOS (not that I know well). I'm trying to install a new graphics (gtx 750ti) card and the computer does not recognize it. It shows the first screen, and then a black screen and a beep, then it crashes. Keyboard does not work, cannot get into the BIOS.

  I tried everythign with current BIOS, boot legacy and ensuring that the Integrated GPU is disabled, and nothing works. I also did research on food, and but it is not terrible, it should work with this graphics card (the fan even spinning).

  According to my research, the current BIOS is simply not recognize, and I need to update. My current version is: FRIEND 7.16, 05/10/2011

  I navagate through the HP website and it said that the automatic update should update the BIOS for Windows 10, and it won't let me download all drivers (although the last BIOS update was 2011). I tried to enter the FRIEND's site and download it from there and it won't even install their drivers, it says that flash is not supported (probably for Windows 10).

  If someone could give me an idea of how can I get a newer version of the BIOS for my motherboard, it would be much appreciated as I'm pretty sure that's the reason why the computer is not recognizing the new graphics card

  The risk is that the video card is one that is for a newer PC with an EFI BIOS. That's why the empty card is not recognized.

  If you use a card equipped with a switch on the virtual card allowing the use in legacy and uefi BIOS it will work with the BIOS of your PC.

  Sapphire makes video cards that have this capability. Take a look at the catalogue. What you need is a PCIE x 16 card video with switchable legacy\uefi BIOS or legacy support, but not only UEFI.

  You cannot change the type of BIOS that your PC has in the UEFI.  It's a question of his being of a generation of diferent from the PC.

• Pavilion p6 - 2120t: Windows will not start with the new graphics card

  Installed a Zotac GT 740 profile down in my desktop PC graphics card HP Pavilion p6 - 2120t and now the PC does not start.

  HP Pavilion p6 - 2120t CTO desktop PC

  Configuration:
  Intel Pentium CPU [email protected]
  4.0 GB RAM
  Intel HD Graphics Driver version Family: 8.15.10.2291 dated 27/01/2011
  Motherboard: IPISB-CU (Carmel2) (1 open PCI Express 16 expansion slot pins)

  BIOS to Version 7.18

  Running:
  Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit w/service pack 1
  Two monitors (VGA, 1 digital port 1)

  Before installing the new graphics card, I replaced the power supply original 300w with a 400w power supply.

  For starters, I disabled the onboard graphics in Device Manager. Then, I opened the case and installed the GT-740 in the open PCI Express slot. I made sure that the card was fully engaged in the slot.

  I plugged both monitors to their connections voted on the new map.

  When I tried to boot the PC, the digital monitor displays the screen HP (the one that indicates which key support to achieve the start menu) and then frozen. No other entries of key or mouse have been accepted.

  The PC then sounds 4 short beeps (about 10 seconds between each beep) and then a long beep before turning off the signal to the screen.

  Then, I removed the new graphics card on the PC that starts then. I have reactivated the original graphics drivers and the PC then worked normally.

  Tried the above process two more times with the same results.

  I then went into the start menu to look at the BIOS. The menu of the BIOS shows two options:

  > Sources of boot UEFI

  Windows Boot Manager

  > Sources of boot legacy

  ATAP I CD/DVD player

  SATA2

  Hard drive

  SATA0

  Network controller (Realtek PXE B06 D00)

  PC using UEFI Boot Manager Windows boots normally

  I have not tried Legacy Boot Sources because I don't know which one to choose.

  I went to the HP site and looked for an update to the newest BIOS, but updating them is a rev version 7.16 while my PC shows my BIOS to version 7.18

  I know that others have had a similar problem but I have not seen a solution that works for my PC.

  Any advice would be welcome.
  Thanks for your time.

  Hello

  Your PC isn't spec'd to run Windows 7 using the Windows Boot Manager.  I expect to a UEFI-based graphics card likely to work on an HP PC that does not have a BIOS version 8.

  The below listed OEM HP, graphics cards should work in your PC using a normal non - UEFI W7 and W8 installation.

  

• Recommendation for the new graphic card for the Pavilion a1250n Office running windows xp service pack 3

  trying to upgarde my pavilion a1250n computer of office for graphics card MSI r5450 radeon. After installation of the new card in the PCI express and turn on the machine, does not start, screen goes black and the fans to run at top speed. The card and the machine starts fine with the ATI radeon 200 exprees edge. I went into Device Manager and disabled the ATI radeon 200 adapter, and the system still wouldn't start with the new card. Went into the Bios at startup and changed the setting of the adapter PCI E, the slot where I put the card, and still won't work, even with the Bios and Device Manager changes I made.

  New card right out of the box, could be bad, or perhaps not compatible with my system? If is not compatible, what would you recommend? Currently I am running windows XP SP3 and am looking for a card that can be upgraded to Windows 7 64-bit. I know that the ATI integrated graphics card cannot be upgraded, so I'd appreciate some advice really.

  Thank you.

• Lenovo M91p desktop does not boot with the new graphics card (Blank don't screen no BIOS)

  Hi all

  I recently bought a Lenovo M91p thinkcenter Desktop as an upgrade to my old PC i3.

  Old Spec is as follows:

  • Coolermaster Thunder 600W power supply
  • Card mother Intel DH55HC
  • Processor i3
  • Graphics HIS HD Radeon 7950
  • 8 GB RAM
  • HARD DRIVE 500 GB

  I transferred my HD supply and Power 500 GB old to new Lenovo desktop and everything starts very well.

  Then I installed 2 x 2 GB extra in the Lenovo M91p (which in fact 8GB) and updated the disk of 500 GB to 1 TB.

  So my new spec is as follows:

  • Coolermaster Thunder 600W power supply
  • Card mother Lenovo Q67
  • I7 2600 3.4 Ghz CPU
  • 8 GB RAM
  • 1 to and 500 GB HARD drive

  Everything Booted fine. Then I tried to install my old graphics (HIS 7950 graphics Radeon HD card) card. I got was a blank screen, no beeps, no BIOS... Nothing.

  At first, I thought that my diet was not enough... So I tested a 750W power supply in the pc. Still nothing.

  Then I thought that the motherboards BIOS was outdated... Updated... Still nothing. I even tried to update the firmware of the graphics card. Nothing.

  The graphics card works because I tested it in my old machine and it worked 100%.

  However, I took my graphics card to my provider and he tests it on another of his pieces... Did not work there either.

  My PC BIOS is not supported for secure boot, in case anyone wants to know.

  I am out of ideas now... Anyone able to help?

  There is a white list of graphics cards that will recognize the BIOS. The 7950 HD is a map of 180w, well beyond what the power plant can provide (and case/sufficient cooling fans for) and not a single one is that Lenovo would provide support for the BIOS.

  Use the search engine above to see what cards other owners have used successfully in their M91p.

• HP Pavilion Elite HPE-530sc - I'm looking to the new graphics card (maybe)

  Hey

  I have this PC: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02688298

  From the looks of it, it should be great, but it doesn't. I can play Battlefield on the graphics settings that I would and given the fact that I have a 2 GB graphics card, it's a little weird. This could be due to my diet (it has total 460W)?

  If this is not the case, what would you recommend I do then?

  I hope you can help me with this, it is quite annoying :-)

• Black screen of death after allowing the download of Windows updates

  If I turn off the Windows Update (never check the updates), everything works fine. If I put "Download updates but let me choose whether to install" I have problems. The PC continuously restarts itself just as the Windows password box appears.
  I find that even if I said not to install updates, it does not account for this and will forward any how. The stop button indicates that the fixes will be installed (kb973923, kb973525, kb936514 & kb956828) after some difficulties, I can get it to boot. And then, during the stop, it install another patch kb960003. Then again, at shutdown, it install another patch. I can't tell which one is installed at this stage because it is impossible to get it working again. Safe mode does not help. I have to go back to a restore point before I set windows update to download the patches use the ERD.
  Why it installs fixes when I told explicitly not to do so?
  How will I know what is\are the origin of the problem patches?
  I have to run my PC without updates, which is obviously not a good idea
  The problem began in late December, front, then it worked OK.

  Hi Mike,.
  Thanks for the reply
  I tried your suggestion without success
  But I think that I managed to solve the problem by updating the BIOS of the motherboard - it has not occurred since.
  Very strange, I would not have thought there could be something in the BIOS that could cause this
  Thanks a lot for your help

• Pavilion P6130F blue screen after upgrade to Win 7 because of the NVIDIA graphic card

  My computer was working fine under Vista 64-bit. I got the upgrade CD Win 7 64 bit. The installation went well. But after a few days I get BSOD. The computer hangs at random: opening Visual Studio or even open a folder. The graphics card shows as NVidia GeForce 9100 in the Device Manager. I downloaded and installed the latest driver from HP site. That did not help. Then I installed the latest driver from NVidia site itself; This file is named: 195.62_desktop_win7_winvista_64bit_english_whql.exe, but that did not help either one.

  Taskbark of the window has a message that 'graphic NVIdia has stopped working"and then recommend downloading drivers.

• Pavilion HPE - 533 sc: installed new graphics card. Hard drive stops

  In order to improve my graphics performance for games that I invested in this graphics card:

  NVIDIA gtx 950, links shows the map and specifications:

  I can also clearly see that disk hard fails or starts the Windows 7 Edition operating system home premium.

  I am running Nvidia GT 630, and back on this card machines works well again.

  It just loks like the new graphics card prevents the hard drive to run.

  All attached cables (power cable 6 pin) and locked firmly into the PCI slot.

  Is it possible that the new card draws so much power that it prevents the hard drive of the race?

  When you press ESC, it seems that the hard drive is registered in the Bios.

  This nvidia gtx 950 is better? It seems to be more the size of the one I have - nvidia GT 630. Link shows specifications.

  I'm not familiar with current PC for sale, regarding upgrades.  Since is considered a new HP, try looking at the list of options on the HP website.  Most higher end PC have the options that you choose before buy you, to customize the generation.  Choose a model with options that match your criteria now and notice the upgrade options - write down them - to avoid confusion later.  OR go with a customized version, but this could mean significant spending.  It is the hand off the coast between prebuilts and personalized.

  Hello

  I have a g6 2240-CA Pavilion which will not start upward.  I get the 'HP' symbol and a message about 'Prepare auto repair'... then it goes in the black screen of death.

  It runs Windows 8 (pretty sure its 64-bit version), System ID 1849 and ST9500325AS ATA Hard Drive.

  I ran to the verification of diagnosis for the (vast) memory and hard drive.  The memory test the HD failed.  Specifically the "HD SMART Check" success and failure "HD short DST Check" with the following details:

  Hello

  According to test results, you posted, and it does not point to hard drive failure. Is your older machine for less than 12 months?

  In this cases aged under 12 months contact HP in your local area and organize a repair service.

• HP Pavilion HPE H8-1234: Hp screen after the passage of graphics cards

  Hello

  I ordered a new graphics card and the power supply about two weeks ago. When I put the new power supply in the computer, it worked fine, power supply is Corsair 600 watts. This is not the first time that I changed my graphics card and the one I have now is a PNY GeForce GT 610. I'm trying to get is a MSI GeForce GTX 950. I took it to a buddy of mine to see if the problem was with the card and it worked fine on his custom build, but when I try to put in mine all the getting is the HP logo on a blue screen reading "Push ESC for boot menu". When I Press esc, nothing happens. There are two single beeps, one about 30 seconds after you turn on the computer and another minute later, followed by the screen goes black with a underscore on it.

  Any help would be wonderful that I have run out of ideas as to what could be the problem. Thank you for your time.

  VGcrazee, welcome to the forum.

  I think that your new video card is not compatible with the motherboard BIOS.  960 GTX requires UEFI in the motherboard rather than a standard BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  I suggest that you check the BIOS version and contact Technical Support PNY for help.  They are the experts on their products.  It is very difficult to know which video cards more recent will work with older computers.

• 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
  • 1 TB hard drive 7200 RPM SATA 3 Gb/s

  • LightScribe SuperMulti DVD burner
  • 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:

  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.

• Satellite A200 - black screen of death

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite A200 PSAFCA-01K00J model. This model, I bought Harvey Norman in Australia, but I can't find any registration on the web site of current Toshiba or abandoned. This sux because I am looking for any bios updates available to address a recent black screen problem.

  The first time this has happened that I was able to reboot after removing the battery/cut the current to several times before its good. The next day, after an attempted works to install Kaspersky Anti-virus update the same problem... Power disconnected, removed, deleted drums (replacing the cylinder one and then the other to check the faulty ram memory cards) of ram and hard drive and then bled off residual tension with start button. Through this process several times before finally successful. I had to pass by it a few times since after restarts automatic windows updates, etc. I extracted the procedure to manually reset the bios by jumping it, but it's something I want to avoid doing this until I've exhausted all other options.

  Toshiba Satellite A200
  Model - PSAFCA-01K00J
  O/s - Vista
  Hard Drive - 160GB with 50 GB of free space remaining.

  > Black Screen Of Death
  What happen exactly when you start your laptop?

  By the way: I ve checked the download from Toshiba on http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/download page and can not find this old model of laptop. I don't understand that Toshiba to THE is some archives for old models like on the page of European support.

  Anyway, I don't think that BIOS is the reason for this behavior.
