  • HP Touchsmart 520-1070 video card update

    I have a HP Touchsmart 520-1070 with an AMD RADEON HD 6450 A graphics card. I'm not too good with technical stuff, and when I bought this PC I was told that it would be perfectly fine any game. However, when I tried to download some of the popular games and play them on my PC as it is today, with the THIEF, what I discovered was that this computer was great, except that a single card video. I did some research and found that I needed  graphics AMD Radeon HD series R9 to run games perfectly. Now, my question is, can I switch to one of these video cards AMD Radeon HD series R9 with my PC?

    Thank you.

    What I'm saying is, you can't buy a standard PCI Express x 16 video card, for example, the R9 from AMD.  It should be a card MXM Mobile, as stated in my previous post.  I wasn't able to find a map that shows the specifications shown, however.  They are not readily available.  To be honest, I'm not sure that an upgrade would allow you to play the games you mentioned.

  • HP Touchsmart 520-1020 PC: installation of operating system/recovery on the new HARD disk media?

    Hello everyone!

    I recently bought and installed a new hard drive on my Touchsmart 520-1020 after that started to spoil. Given that I don't return to the top of my media and the model was old enough, I had to buy a whole new pack of system directly from HP recovery disks. I tried to install them several times, but each time that the process of recovery achieved 39% the disk #2 (in 4 total) that breaks down just, and a message appears saying that there is an error 0xe0ef000e. I thought it might be produced because the hard drive is not compatible, but the hard drive is reading for diagnostic tests, so is not the problem. HP support suggested that the problem could be with the discs, but I bought it on the official HP website to make them new. Please let me know what you think the problem might be. Thank you for your time.

    More than likely disk 2 is bad, call HP for a replacement set.

    The connection with my primary monitor has become black after moving from monitor, my secondary monitor is fine

    I check connections change cables, bought new cables just in case they have been the cause, even to swap monitors and try to see if it's the monitor.

    monitors both work.

    so, I check the connection on the graphics card. I have a card GEForce 530

    I went and bought a new 400Watts power supply to support a GEForce GT 740 and the computer emits a beep ounces and nothing, black screens

    then I tried with one monitor and remains black, I can't start in safe mode it does not give me the options that the specifications and nothing else.

    I even clear the RAM memory cards, clear the CMOS and disconnected and plugged the card back just in case.

    nothing

    screen stays black

    I return to my old card and it works fine but only one monitor, I need two monitors to work.

    any suggestions or if you know if this model does not support a map update?

    I did some research already for a few days.

    Thank you

    Check with the manufacturer of the card. I suspect that it is a map of UEFI VBIOS, not inherited.  Your system does not support inheritance. An explanation of @old_geekster can be found here.

  • HP Pavilion a320n needs graphics card update.

    I need to update the graphics card for my HP the a320n desktop. I need to know about how to proceed and how much it will cost me... and should I even bother? This old compy me has served well with not a glitch during the last 7 years or so, but now, it is flat refusing to run games like Second Life. It's a Nvidia GeForce 4 MX integrated GPU. Is there a way to improve this?

    Here are some generic instructions:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00007413

    ... The choice is yours. You should be able to find much better used or old-stock 8 x AGP card for anywhere from $30 to $150: example... http://www.TigerDirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?CATID=318 & SRCCODE = WEBGOOVID & cm_mmc_o = mH4CjC7BBTkwCjCECjCEL

    Memory must be inexpensive as well and can also help a lot. The thing is, if you think you can buy a new computer from an OEM, like HP, for about the same price... So, I leave to you to determine if XP is more reliable than vista or not. But more new games will be compatible with Vista... (or Win7).

  • H8-1214: h8-1214 graphics card update

    My h8-1214 starts to get a little old. The graphics card died a few months back and a friend gave me an old (even lower than the original spec) just to make it back to work again. Not long after the hard drive has failed too so I replaced which and also, I needed to put a new operating system on the drive I upgraded from the original windows 7 to 8.1. The problem is windows 8 don't like the really old graphics card. so I took the plunge one ordered a new one. I also had a new power supply, I have read that the original could not deal with any updates. The problem I have is I got the card is a Radeon R7 250 X http://www.powercolor.com/US/products_features.asp?id=528 doesn't seem to work with the system. Ive put the old back in and that works so I know Ive got all the power supply very well hung upward and that his problem with the card. Ive spent a little time to try to find answers and have read a few things about the compatibility of UEFI, but everything I find seems quite vague and I can't find a clear answer on what is or is not compatible, what can be done about it. Im hoping that someone could help me with, it is if the h8-1214 can use a Radeon R7 250 X? If there is a problem of compatibility UEFI is there something that I can update to make it work as the driver of the motherboard or even a bios update? If it cannot be implemented should I consider getting an old low spec graphics card or should I think about a motherboard more up-to-date, which is consistent with recent material? If this is the best option is it any particular reccomendation for most recent advice that I can put the FX-6100 in?

    Thanks in advance for any help

    If you own a H8-1214, WIN 7, the BIOS rev max is 7.16 (related to the operating system).  This means that the MSI GTX 750Ti is an excellent choice because it has a legacy and UEFI micro-switch.  You need the legacy support.

    Thank you.

    Good day and welcome to the community.

    There is no way to upgrade the graphic subsystem on your machine. The Intel HD 520 is integrated into the chipset package. Although some laptops have discrete graphics chips, almost none don't have been socketed. They are welded in place.

    Hope this helps to clarify.
