New power supply and logic board?

I need to get a new power supply and the logic board put in my iMac - when I did, this is my iMac will be indented from the base/settings (i.e. will I need to put everything on my external hard drive to backup) or will all my personal data / records/work etc., always be on it?

All your data, applications, and settings are on the hard drive, if that is not replaced everything will be as it was. That said, you should always have a backup before you take your mac at home.

    Hello

    Look for the Corsair CX500, CX600 or CS550m.  These PSUS have the same dimensions as your power supply.

  • new power supply and HARD drive for t350.it

    Hi, I should install an ATI 4650HD on a t350.it, but the requirements of the system says I need a 400W power supply, while this pc has a 220 W one. Can someone confirm this for me? In this case, can I install a 500W power supply in this pc? Another question, it should be installed even a 500 GB Sata HARD drive, but the location that contains the drives are very close, you can see in the attachment to page 104 page signed 'disco rigído' with the G, can this cause a problem of high temperature? This pc is compatible with a Seagate Barracuda 500 GB SATA?

    You are right.  Is there an AGP version of the card.  I just wanted to make sure that you were aware of the correct version.  Many have made the mistake of buying the wrong type.

    Yes, the PSU's power supply.  Sorry for the use of the acronym without explanation. You will find it difficult to find a more powerful power supply which will be insert in your case.  The 220W is about it.  There is a lot of discussion on the forum about this problem.  I don't want to specify on the thing, however.  The amount of power supplied by a PSU is only as much as the system needs to run.  It has the production capacity of 600W, does not mean that it will be clocked at that power all the time.  It would not damage your motherboard (motherboard) If you have installed a.

  • Selection of power SUPPLY and sides AMPS?

    Hello

    I need a new power supply, measured the size of the unit, got all the details.

    Power 300W max, + 5v and + 12v 268W, + 3.3V and + 5v 175W

    I am agree with watt side. , But after reading a lot of the information contained in this post, I never see any mention of AMPERE ratings on different volt rails. Are the AMPS without importance in the choice of a PSU?

  • new power supply for a6319fh

    im going to be upgrading my diet so I can update my graphics card. the vehicle currently has a 250w power supply and I want to go between 450-600w. I need to know what brands will certainly adapt to my case. I have a processor intel dual core and im on vista sp1. also the new power supply will require an update of fan? any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Given that this case is an office of size, or it seems, you should be able to use a standard ATX power supply box.  To be sure, take it with you for the purpose of comparison or get the dimensions.  The fan is usually part of the diet, unless you want to say the "fan" which will probably still be OK, too.

  • Pavilion NC768AA #ABA: HP Pavilion model. a6719f new video card with the new power supply?

    Hello!

    So, I won money to buy (hopefully) a new video card!

    However, I have a problem.

    I don't know which one to get!

    SO, someone please, please recommend a video card for intermediate level games.

    (My budget is less than $280)

    My PC has stock everything.

    Thus, it was purchased as it was when you would get everything first he.

    Yes, I need also a new power supply that is included with my budget.

    Thank you!

    Revionion, welcome to the forum.

    I'd be happy to help you in your choice.  The main problem is, recent video cards require UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS to legacy.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  The latest maps not requiring UEFI were the series GTX 640.  However, MSI has made a card that has a VBIOS hybrid which can operate with a BIOS.  The best thing to do is to choose a video card you like and contact Technical Support from the manufacturer to ensure that it will work on your computer as it is almost 7 years old.  This will save you problems.  They are the experts on their cards.

    I like Corsair power supply units (PSU).  I suggest at least 500W.  This will give you plenty of power for any card that works in your computer.

    If you have any other questions, let me know.  I'll be happy to help you.

  • HP Pavilion p6-2: problems on blocking down after I installed the new power supply on a p6-2207ep

    Hi all

    B4 explaining my problem, I really don't know if I should post this in office, or material in this section of the freezes/crashes/locks but since I posted in freezing section and no results I decided to try here.

    My pc: http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c03382032

    I bought a new PSU: XFX TS 550W 80PLUS BRONZE for the GPU upgrade 380 R9 I was planning to do.

    Is there some BIOS I get HP for this cause of power supply from what I read, if I not only one of the things like manufacturer reset to the factory settings may stop working... Currently, my Bios version is 7.11...

    Problems with the new power supply:

    When I closed windows 7, the first problem, the picture freezes on the screen that says "blocking windows down", I waited a bit and nothing, tried to turn off the machine while keeping down the power button but nothing to disable directly in the rear switch of the PSU...

    Second time happened a little different soomething, seconds after freezing again on the screen that says "blocking windows down" windows actually turned off and the screen is off but everything inside the computer case continues to flow fans in light of the power button / stop and was also able to close by keeping pressed power button...

    When I restart the computer, to which some time stops, and only after a few seconds, it turns...

    Also tried the GPU with the new PSU fans worked but no entry in the screen that I guess just a power supply problem.

    ATM, I'm RMA waiting to know if it is a power supply defective or not...

    Problems after the reinstallation of the original material:

    Some of the same problems when I got the new PSU remained namely:

    Windows actually stop and the screen is off, but everything inside the computer case continues to flow fans in the light of the button on / off and was also able to close by keeping the power button...

    When I restart the computer, to which some time stops, and only after a few seconds, it turns...

    What I've done so far to try to fix the problem:

    Restore windows 7 to a b4 point the hardware installation.

    Reset the BIOS

    Hard reset

    Clean boot

    Do you have a full checkdisk which means 0 KB in bad sectors...

    A complete hardware checked all tests with the HP software

    A system file check everything beautiful

    What I fear most is a faulty PSU that may have caused damage to my equipment mainly the motherboard, but could be something else entirely.

    Maybe I need a specific BIOS for that motherboard / PSU combo, but after returning to the source material, the problems remained.

    What I can do because I can only make the software tests since I don't have an extra PC to test the parts...

    Hello

    Disconnect all external devices except the keyboard and mouse when you try to solve the problem.

    Disconnect the PC and removed the CMOS battery.  Press and hold the power for 30 seconds.  Now, replace the CMOS battery and plug the PC give a TI a go.

    Your PC is not stable enough to make a BIOS update. Do not attempt to use the graphics card XFX until your PC is stable enough to make a BIOS update.

    I have an a6767c of office with integrated graphics. I would like to upgrade with a good card modest price. Perhaps nivida 9800? also a new power supply would be advised that told me.

    Thank you!

    The graphics card will be fine, but the power supply may cause problems of space because of the type of power supply (non-modular).

    The OEM case, you should look at modular PSUS. With modular units, you don't have to figure out what to do with all the extras, the unused connectors and wiring. Modular units you come a connectn those needed.

    This OCZ ModXStream Pro 600W Newegg should be perfect. I used power supply, OCZ for years and never had a problem. It is actually less expensive than the Corsair you asked.

    Hello

    Open your PC and measure the distance between the optical drive and power.  The power supply you want to install is by 3.4 by 6.3 5.9 and standard HP POWER supply is by 3.4 by 5.5 5.9 (inches). It might been very tight.

    Corsair HX650 is 5.9 by 3.4 by 5.9 and modular.  You will find may be easier to install.

    TIP: Remove the front panel and the side as the optical drives to the front so you give a little more space for help with the installation of the power supply.

  • Dimension 4600 doesn't work with the new power supply

    Hi all

    I replaced the power supply in my 4600 today so he would welcome a Nvidia Geforce 7950GT AGP.

    The model is an integrator of Aerocool 500W 80 Plus Bronze. http://www.Amazon.co.UK/GP/product/B00JKVHKSU?

    The 4600 has two sockets on the motherboard. A 20 pin and 4 pin. The new power supply had a 24pin cable that I shared, so it became 20 + 4.

    It is not working properly. With all the connected cables (2 cables for the mobo) and 2 connectors molex to drive HARD and CD - R, there is a flashing orange light on the front of the computer and a green light on the motherboard. Some discs don't look, no noise. Nothing is on. If I remove the power cable from motherboard 4 pin POWER supply lights up and the fan from the CPU. There is no problem when I connect the old Dell 250w PSU back up.

    Some of the reviews on Amazon have said that some cable has been connected to wrong and only he re-wiring to work. I don't know if this applies to me? I took some pictures of the connectors. http://imgur.com/a/6m9pu

  • Installed a new power supply, run only windows XP.

    So I recently replaced my power supply, and all respect that seems to be going very well that the computer has no problem running. However, every time I start the computer, it start in Windows XP and immediately requires me a check on windows XP. A screen will appear asking if I would like to activate via phone or internet tool. If I use the online detection tool, he suggests, he says that I can not connect to the internet and sends me in return. If I call the number, I can possibly a recording of the voice asking me the code 40 numbers on my screen. Whenever I enter this code by phone, he says he does not recognize that code and I'm at square one. So basically, how can I get my computer to start as it has always, in Windows 7 and with all my usual data?

    Also, I tried to start in safe mode with command prompt. When I get to the menu Startup and recovery in system properties, it appears the only operating system default is "Windows XP Media Center Edition. I have several hard drives my best guess is that it maintains launch than bad. Any help find how launch of correct would be greatly appreciated.

    TLDR; New power supply, computer guard run windows xp and by asking for activation, when I was previously with windows 7 for more than a year.

    Good guess:

    When you have reconnected all cables in your PC after installing the new power supply, you connected the SATA (data) cable that should go to your primary (generally marked 0) SATA port for a hard drive that has Windows XP on it.

    Check your cables.

    I heard that HP computers are notorious for difficulties in upgrading equipment thanks to the compact design the area.  What power supply and graphics card I should be able to use?  Information links and price would be very appreciated.

    I use my LG HDTV 32 "as a monitor and my current graphics card allows me to connect using an HDMI cable and play movies blu - ray via my PC.  I want to keep this feature.

    Thanks for any help!

    You need to open your PC and measure the physical dimensions of your diet.  Here is a list of the things to consider:

    1. Specifications
    2. Total power - important
    3. amperage 12 + v - important
    4. Modular - is not required, but I like the flexibility
    5. Warranty
    6. I7 and SLI ready
    7. Efficiency rating
    8. Cost
    9. The physical size - standard ATX PSU is 5.5 "by 5.9" by 3.4 "give or take a few tenths

    www.Newegg.com has many choices of power supplies.  Corsair, OCZ, Rosewill, Thermaltake...

    The amount of amperage + 12 volts is important when choosing a video card.  Depending on the size of the Cabinet from HP a 550-600 watt PSU should be plenty.  The NVIDIA GT 460 should be a good choice.

    Thank you.

    Yes. It will work.

    However you will probably find a little tight because of remaining unused cable bundles. My preference for the PC ATX Mid-size boxes are of the modular power supply. With a modular power supply connect only s connector as much as you want.

    Do the upgrades one at a time.  Start with the power SUPPLY and any other origin. Check that it works and then close.  Then go to the graphics card.

    Happy update.
