• Pavilion dv4-1140go upgrade video card

  Hi, I am looking to get my laptop to Skyrim-ability. Vista 64-bit, 4 GB of memory and Intel's integrated graphics. I did some research and it seems that the only way to get a better card for my laptop would be to replace the motherboard. Is a motherboard / alternative exists? An external GPU is probably out of the question, I don't think that my laptop has the ports for him.

  Thank you!

  Hello:

  You are right.

  In order to update the video in your portable computer, the motherboard set must be toggled, and the best graphics solution available for your laptop is the Board of Directors with the nVidia GeForce 9200 M GS

  (NB9M-GE-S) with 512 MB of video memory dedicated.

  See the manual at the link below, Chapter 3, page 22. The part number for the motherboard, you can upgrade is 496730-001.

  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c01597750.PDF

  The Council alone put you back $470,25.

  For me, the attendant costs for such upgrading are excessive and you would be better off listing where sell your laptop for one with graphics solution you want.

• Dell Optiplex 780 memory update does not

  1. I have purchase Dell Optiplex 780 supplied with memory DDR3 8 GB (4x2Go). I wanted to update so I bought 4 GB RAM (4x1Go) and tried to install it today. The diagnostic lights Dell on 3 and 4, which means that the memory is detected, but at fault. Now, I doubt that this new module of memory are defective. Here's what I did to solve problems:

     I took the original strips and installed a new. There are 4 DIMM and I tried to put it in all the 4 connectors DIMM one, but my PC will not start and shows the Dell diagnostic lights lit 3 and 4. then I put my original RAMS but still the same problem has happened that I also tried the two Rams Original one by one in all the slots but same question :(

     I also tried without installed memory but still Dell lights lit diagnostic 3 and 4 and no beep heard.

     Can someone help me what is the problem real?

  Hi Danish_smartpk,

  Welcome to the Dell Community Forum.

  If the 3 and 4 diagnostic lights are lit, it is code modules of memory detected, but a memory failure that occurred. You also mentioned that there is not only no beeps no heard when no memory is installed. When no memory is detected by the system, it emits beep codes indicating the same.  If the motherboard is not beep when no memory is installed, it could indicate failure systemboard.

  It is generally recommended that the BIOS updated before the new memory being installed. In addition, your computer supports a maximum of 8 GB of RAM DDR3 SDRAM (memory non - ECC only). If it already came with 8 GB of memory, it would not take an additional upgrade.

• IPMMB-FM motherboard: computer beeps 6 long time need help please

  HII gave a computer with a card hp envy mother IPMMB-FM. When I turn it on it give me a white screen six long beeps and remains lit. The power LED light flashes in orange with every beep. I'm not trying to add a video card to this topic. I use the o/b video. I had to get an adapter for IVF/VGA. I tried out the battery put in. I unplugged everything and then took out the battery and put it back. But I still get the same six beeps a certain box please help me. Thank you.

  Hello

  You'll probably have to replace the motherboard.

  A technician will need to determine which component has failed.

  A failure of an integrated component requires a new motherboard.

• 23 - d160qd envy: new motherboard, now empty screen and 6 beeps. Cannot change the legacy BIOS. Help!

  Good ladies and Gentlemenof the Interwebulars, I hope someone can shed some light on my situation.

  Walked down one day to see that my computer would not start. A diagnosis which in a bad power port. Got a new motherboard because after desoldering (or that's what I tried to do) I realized that it was small to (re) welding in and I could not find the right part to reorganize.

  so I got a new motherboard. The number replacement part direct. Barefoot on my floor wood and ESD wrsitband on, I put in this bad boy. Double and triple check things and connections. Go to hit the power button and I get 6 beeps and 6 flashes of correspopnding of the powerbutton. The system does not appear to be on, fan is running with the other sounds of starting and running sounds, but I have a white screen and orange electric button. If I tap CTRL + ALT + DELETE it will restart and begin the process again. The 6 beeps by HP standards denotes missing graphics / card error. My original motherboard had a built-in graphics card so I thought that the same new part number card mother too. Obviously not. so I had a Geforce 2Go MXM graphics card update with heat sink. Barefoot, wood floor, bracelet ESD, thermal paste and turn it on to hear... SIX BEEPS AND SCREEN WHITE.

  After Googling around, some people say that I have to enter the BIOS and change boot legacy and fashion out of the UEFI mode that's killing me right now. I have join and would completely if I could see my screen of the BIOS, or anything for that matter. I can not go back also to my other card because it will not feed. So my question; How to make or change the BIOS settings so that my computer will recognize a graphics card or internal graphic that should be on the new motherboard itself so that it starts?

  I need this computer for CAD work soon so I thought help processor i7, 8GBs RAM, Geforce card and touch screen to perform a generation of PC.  So if someone has a great idea they would projected upward on this post, I'd appreciate it. Thank you!

  Your computer is not posting, sound rather give an error message in the form of 6 beeps and red LED flashing, indicating graphics / video issue.

  You can never get into the BIOS of the device, if its not posting, not on a HP Desktop atleast.

  I recommend, you disconnect all components and fittings connected to the motherboard i.e. cables SATA, power cables, RAM, processor, heatsink, power supply and battery CMOS as well.

  Now, press and hold button power unit for a minute or two., with the power and everything is still disconnected.

  Then,.

  (1) Insert the battery CMOS back into its slot, install the processor and the heat sink, connect all cables power that goes to the motherbaord in the PSU and CPU and etc., less SATA cable and cable power to drive hard and Optcal drive and turn on the device, of course after you have connected the rear power cable.

  (2) check if the machine beeps and check whether it is 5 times.

  (3) If yes install a memory in the first slot (slot black), connect the monitor and turn on the power and check if there is no video output.

  (4) if so, connect the return which is always disconncted, to their respective locations and ports and turn them the unit on and get on with your CAD stuff.

  IF NO,

  2 options:

  (1) if the unit is still under warranty, call 1800-474-6836 and have a technician on-site visit your place and replace the parts needed for the operational unit.

  (2) or the motherboard you purchased could have been Dead On Arrival. Get a warranty replacement for the DOA mobo and re install a new Board of Directors.

  Good luck!

• 4 beeps on XPS 8300 motherboard at startup

  I installed a new graphics card in my computer and it didn't work. Now my motherboard does not work and emit 4 beeps at startup.

  The graphics card is a MSI 970 GTX 4G games.

  I also have upgraded to EVGA 500 watt power supply in order to is not a problem.

  I ordered a new motherboard from newegg I got this one because I am limited by my LGA1155 socket for my processor.

  I want to know if my motherboard is recoverable and if there is no better option for my situation.

  If put you everything back and it does not, then the insufficient power of 500W damaged HARD DISK ETC., card MOTHER, CPU, RAM. You start with what is called work.  This isn't probably the cpu is fried because it beeps.

• HP Pavilion dv6700 FE811UA: alternative of the motherboard that supports windows 7 did not bound by windows vista

  I have what is essentially a hp notebook pc pavilion dv6985se.  The case is the special edition of the copper color model.  Motherboard of the laptop being (for lack of a better way to explain it), "tattooed" with windows vista, I tried to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit sp1 and cannot until the date of windows despite many attempts troubleshooting update. So, my ultimate question is a motherboard more modern, say like the dv6163cl, I in a newer model specifications that I own.  FE11UA dv6700 in question here is a model I want to continue to use it in the hope of the upgrade that I need to upgrade THIS appliance that works?  Any suggestions would help me a lot in my choices as appropriate.

  I recently got a gtx 460 s decision-making and wanted to put it in my computer, I have a different diet that is 700 watts and the two connectors 6-pin at the back of the computer, the card is also sitting (re-sitting several times - not the question) I also I added more than 8 gigabytes of ram to the motherboard, I tried to remove it and start the computer , but it still sounds. Also, I can't access the bios because the monitor receives no signal.

  the question I want to know is, have all the required connectors? because it seems that there is an another slot of tiny psi on the top of the card and also if my motherboard only supports the card.

• Satellite M40x - repeated beeping during post

  Hi guys. I have this problem.

  When I turn on my laptop, as soon as he gets to the Toshiba Logo screen it freezes and starts a repeated short beep lasts forever. I learned that a key has been blocked, so I tried to press some keys in case they return to normal. After a few tries, I managed to find the the only way to continue startup and loading of windows, is to keep the f1 + f2 + f3 pressed together all the time. I managed to log into windows I opened Notepad and published the keys then, I see we're stuck. A 44444 immediately started to type... Since the key 4 seemed all right, I thought it would be a problem with keyboard, so I tried to unplug. But the same thing happens with the Ribbon of keyboard completely disconnected from the motherboard. It freezes at logo Toshiba and beeps.

  After some research on the net and this forum, I found that many people experience this problem with different laptops, but I see no alternative but to replace the motherboard, I also found a topic stating that it was the fault of media buttons, but I tried to disconnect them as soon as I pressed the power button , unfortunately no different result.

  This forum is my last hope, someone has encountered something like that and fixed it? Thank you.

  Hey Buddy,

  New and original Toshiba spare parts you can obtain from an authorized service provider. They sell all original spare parts Toshiba so I put t think that it s a problem to get this spare part of the guys.

• Z820 - button Power LED blinks 4 times (red) with beep... bad card (Quadro 4000) graphics?

  Hello

  My Z820 at the office is suddenly having a few hardware malfunction.

  When I turn on my machine, the PSU/system fans don't rev and the Power LED button flashes red with a beep 4 times.

  According to this page of troubleshooting, this indicates a faulty PSU on the new UEFI computers:

  HP desktop - computer does not start and emits a LED or a beep Code

  Section "code beep and LED descriptions.

  Get the exact model of LED as the example of "power failure".

  Then, I got a new power supply replacement. I still have the exact same model LED and beeps...

  So, I have drawn deeper and found that when I removed the Quadro 4000 card graphics and then put on my machine, the power button LED is lit in blue (led code ' computer-S0 (normal operation) "") and all the normal spin fans.

  The Quadro card seems to be the culprit...

  Unfortunately, I have no alternative graphic card laying to verify this around, I'm waiting for a replacement of the graphics card (via HP service) to arrive tomorrow.

  Is it possible that the power LED button code (4 times red with beep...) has nothing to do with a bad power supply and that my Quadro is bad?

  Dries

  Dry... that Z820 has been giving you headaches.

  Many fault codes have not changed since the previous workstatons.  I hit this series of beeps of error in the past, and often doesn't mean that the power supply itself is the cause.  It can be a hardware device to the bottom of the chain causing a power surge to power, triggering his "crowbar circuit: fault protection

  http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/crowbar _ (circuit)

  Here are the instructions to deal with this series of beeps of a previous HP xw technical and repair.  Note the number 2 in the troubleshooting instructions... usually you don't have to go down to 3, in my experience.  I think that you have already found the faulty unit:

  Loss of power.
  1. open the access panel and make sure that the power cable is properly
  connected to the system board.
  2. Locate the faulty device by removing all devices and then reinstalling one at a time
  until the workstation fails. Replace the device at the origin of the failure. Continue to add
  devices to make sure that everything works correctly.
  3. check the power supply feature.
  a. turn off the AC power.
  b. remove all cables internal power on the system board.
  c. connect the power supply.
  ● If the power supply fan turns and the BIST LED lights, then the
  power supply is good. Replace the motherboard.
  ● If the power supply fan does not turn or the BIST LED does not
  light up, replace the power supply.

• Laptop Inspiron 15z 5523 - 3 beeps, black screen

  Hey guys

  Trying to solve a problem with the laptop Dell of the Madame; which is an Inspiron 15z 5523.

  1st thing - it is out of warranty, so need to try an auto fix if possible, otherwise I'm sensing it's maybe time for a new laptop for her as well as advice on data recovery will be appreciated on the line.

  Is also worth mentioning that it came on a few days after the installation of Windows 10 - unsure if that is related, but it is worth a mention.

  The problem is that, whatever happens, we are faced with a blank black screen, without and without LED backlight anywhere. It has now begun beep 3 times in a row that as far as I can tell from the resolution of the problems (here) is a system board failure.

  However, for now I did the following:

  • Allowed battery drain and try to run on current alternative
  • Reset the motherboard (using the method of trombone/reset button)
  • Troubleshooted using the link above
  • Confirmed that it was out of warranty

  The main priorities are trying to get this working again once and if not, get the data from the laptop to allow us to get on a new if necessary.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Jesse

  Yahooo! Sort!

  Thank you guys for your help! It's really appreciated!

  A few things I noticed. With regard to obtaining it restarted when the three beeps are going on:

  1. There is no clear instructions "this will always work. Doing the right thing works sometimes and not others.

  2. the most consistent method, I had giving rise to compensation not only beeps, but a successful boot was as follows:

  a. remove the CMOS battery.

  b. remove the main battery or move the little switch under the keyboard (left) in the off position. Just, it disconnects the battery.

  c. press and hold the power button to drain the capacitors (now that the cache is disabled, it's just a little... Silver button so you will need a screwdriver or something to easily press it... better an electric screwdriver!)

  d. leave the computer in this State for a while. At least 10 minutes, but if you encounter some difficult, do the day after. I have no idea why this delay should be necessary, especially after draining the capacitors, but it seems to help to make it more coherent.

  e. replace the CMOS battery, and replace the main battery or drag the little switch under the keyboard to on.

  f. even once, wait 10 to 15 minutes. I have no idea why this seemed to help, but he did. Maybe the CMOS battery did something after being reinserted.

  g. do NOT connect any USB drive. Insertion of a USB key triggers a start in this case. Instead, you just connect the power cable. This will trigger an early upward. Yet once I have no idea why a power cable is better than from the battery, but it once I managed to do start, was after connecting the power cable.

  h. now, he NEVER started first time after connecting the power cable! Instead I let him run for 10-15 seconds, then turns off with the power cable (just a regular... not a helping hand hold). Wait 5 seconds and then again press the power button. Now, it would start upward and within 5 seconds, I see the Dell logo.

  Maybe a lot of this is just nonsense "Voodoo", but his seems to be the most coherent way for me.

  So two things:

  1. never started when the CMOS battery was inside. For centuries I took it out as it was easier to put the PC my remove the power cable and power off of the battery of the switch under the keyboard. But he never actually began without the CMOS battery installed.

  2. never started for me with the power cable connected, despite the battery being fully charged.

  Now, with the operation of the machine, I did a full factory reset. I don't keep anything. I think it was important, as a precaution against problems later.

  If you want to keep the data, then when you're in and running use some backup software. I used a free software called Backerupper. It seems to work.

  http://www.backup-utility.com/free-backup-software.html

  Most of the time a 'restart' was allowed to do. Just don't make a power down and then power on again. Sometimes the 'restart' not worked or got stuck and I was at the beginning, but generally worked well.

  Then the part reflashing. This bit really took me. It seems that there is more than one type of command line! I was trying to make a USB bootable image Win98 and while it would be starting, I couldn't install the new BIOS.

  Instead, what you need is to download a program called Rufus

  https://Rufus.AKEO.IE/

  Configure the partition to Partition MBR to boot UEFI and legasy.

  Set to FAT32 file system

  Check "create a bootdisk for help.

  Box to the right of the "MS-DOS". It's probably already on ISO image, but you want MS-DOS.

  It is the MS-DOS which allows for the flash player.

  Download the latest Bios from Dell (it's 5523A05.exe) and copy it to the memory stick.

  Now paste the memory stick into the USB port on the left side of the computer, the closest of the screen. (It is right next to the HDMI port).

  Now, RESTART your PC. As soon as the Dell logo appears, press F12 until the Startup menu appears. Do not wait to see the prompt for F12... I don't think it appears on a restart. So just hit F12 as soon as the Dell logo appears.

  Once the BIOS is displayed, there is a list of options. There are "Legasy Boot" options mentioned first, and then "Boot UEFI" under them. In the "Boot Legasy" options, select "USB stick" (or something like that... Sorry I forgot the exact words).

  Now, your computer should boot from the memory stick, and displays a prompt C:\.

  Type a 5523, 05 /forceit

  If all goes well, you will have some instructions on disabling is not your computer and the update will happen and then the computer will automatically reboot and your problems should be more!

  This taken... maybe update process 2 minutes... but there were times where I thought it was to do nothing and had crashed. So don't be too nervous. Just let it do its thing.

  I hope this has been helpful to others. I really appreciate the help I received here. If nothing else, the encouragement helped keep my spirits alive!

  One from a different angle, the customer service Dell never rang me yesterday. But tonight, they called on my phone at home (are requested to call my cell phone). This lady was very nice and said that, as this laptop seem to be completely incompatible with Win 10 as evidenced by many users having issue, he would send a Dell technician to change the motherboard for me for free! At this point, the laptop was running and I was about to try to Flash the BIOS, so I told him that I thought not that it was the motherboard, and she offered send an engineer to look at and diagnose the fault and fix it.

  As I was so close to fixing myself I asked him to hold off and check with me tomorrow :) But at least they have offered to help him. A little behind in the offer, but they did end.

  So if you are struggling with Technical Support tell them that you are not satisfied with the request to pay for the repair and ask that someone from customer service call you.

  Good luck! And thanks again to all who helped me a lot!

• Napa-GL8E Motherboard BIOS update problems

  Hi, I have a Pavilion Elite m927a and Sunday, this update of the Napa-GL8E motherboard BIOS wanted to install. I did, and then all the computer froze. I was like, oops. so I forced it closed (power button which took place) and rebooted, and the same update arrived. I though maybe if I get rid of the process would lead, it does not freeze? so I forced it shut again, and the entire computer is dead. Would not boot the computer and emitted a beep code in groups of two, given that the BIOS was not happy (couldn't get the MESSAGE). So, I would have reset the BIOS myself, ' cept that I just bought a month ago, and I didn't kill my warranty, so I called HP and got a technician of po as a side note, it took over an hour for a person pick up, and I've been waiting very unfortunately. Anyway, the Grinch came to a fixed rate (I don't know what he did I wasn't there), but it doesn't have me talk about the update, and now, she wants to always be updated the update even that caused all the trouble.

  My question is this; What should I do about it? I'm too scared to run it again in fear of having to w8 for a technician again.

  Ty! ^^

  Do not install it.

  Word to the wise, do not install an update of the BIOS, unless you have a problem or you need something like a new game or software.

  This hp article should help you remove the element of updates (especially the last two sections):

• A1410n on the motherboard heat sensors

  I have a pavillion a1410n that heat on the mother sensors on board who were not properly welded.  I looked on the HP website and can not find a local partner of HP who can fix the welds.  HP wants me to spend more than 300 for the computer shipped to them to repair or replace.  Is there another alternative?  I am on a fixed income and really can't afford that much $$, but need to use my computer.

  I guess he is not a technician in electronics. I suspect that your system is no longer under warranty. It was a defect of manufacturing of the motherboard.

  Why not buy a new replacement motherboard. They are not very expensive. Just don't buy it at HP... too much. The link will take you to one that sells for $59. Do a Google search for the card mother a1410n and you will find more. Once you have a replacement motherboard, you can bring to your independent technician and hire to remove the old and put in the new mobo. Then, your problem is solved. Since the new mobo is exactly the same as your old it is simply a matter of plug all components (including the HARD disk) and get to the top. Are no required reinstallation of the operating system that the HAL is the same.

• 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.

• Satellite X 200 - 25 H - 3 beeps on start up and wont start

  Hi guys, I'm looking for advice a little before coming into contact with Tosh, it might be something I can fix myself if all goes well.

  I have a slight problem with my laptop at the moment. I turned on this morning and received 3 beeps on startup (more silent beep pause then pause loud beep then a beep loud) and does not start. I have the power, battery lights and waiting now on and fans seem to be swirling very slightly but I can't POST or the Toshiba screen to appear. On the surface, it looks like a hardware failure, the thing is in the years I've had this laptop, I didn't have any problems what so ever.

  He was a weather close last night, the error seems to appear from nowhere.

  No idea which could indicate these 3 beeps? I had a quick glance this morning IE re seat RAM and drives hard but I got tired of trying to figure out which of the 100 live more I had to cancel to the GPU and CPU haha. Looking for a little guidance.

  Kind regards
  Tony

  Hello

  I guess you have a Phoenix BIOS.
  Here are a few for different BIOS BIOS beep codes:
  http://wiki.WinBoard.org/index.php/BIOS_Beep_Codes

  Unfortunately; 3 beeps are not mentioned maybe you should check the beep code again.

  However, POST errors are always hardware problem. Maybe it s RAM problem.
  Check it; Remove a module and check if you could start using a module only.

  Otherwise, it could be a motherboard problem and it would be the worst case.
