• HP Pavilion 500-164 playing through my TV station

  My HP Pavilion 500-164 is not an HDMI Jack on the back of the office.  But she has a VGA socket.  I plugged a VGA cable into my office and my television.  But don't you computer desktop on my TV screen.  Nothing else.  I have a HDMI cable.  Should I get a VGA to HDMI?

  You computer has the following connections;

  

  3 - VGA           4 - DVI-D           12 - audio: output port (lime) line

  I suggest to use a HDMI-DVI cable and a mini plug cable stereo 1/8 "to connect your computer to HDTV. Alternatively, you can use a VGA cable, but theoretically, the image will be of inferior quality.

  See examples of Amazon.com (RadioShack.com would not work);

• HP Pavilion 500-164, upgrade the video card.

  I replaced the power supply in this area for a graphics card into the PCIE slot. I put a Nvidia 9600 GT in the box, not changed no settings, tried to start, and I get no bios and 6 beeps. Any advice?

  Based on specifications, your desktop HP Pavilion 500-164 has been bundled with Windows 8 installed and has a feature called 'Secure Boot'. You must DISABLE "Secure Boot" and ACTIVATE the standby mode 'legacy' in the BIOS before the computer will start with the nVidia 9600 GT installed.

  Please, remove the video card, make changes to the BIOS and turn off the computer. Then, reinstall the video card and turn on the computer. Your problem should be solved.

  Please see Computer Does starts is not after the installation of a videocard (Windows 8) for more information on the subject.

• Remove the hard drive and optical drive on HP pavilion 500-164

  Hello

  I was eager to build a new computer and was hoping to use the hard drive and the optical drive from the Hp Pavilion 500-164 to reduce their costs. I'm confused as to how to remove the optical drive, because I removed the two screws on the left and don't know how to get to the other side as it wouldn't come out. When you remove the hard drive, the SATA cable wouldn't come off, so I stopped here and would like some advice on how to remove the hard drive from its Bay.

  Thank you

• Pavilion 500-164: motherboard replacement raises Questions

  
  

  Thanks, Malygris1, for your very comprehensive answer.  Unfortunately, I'm looking forward and installed the new Board of Directors.  For those faced with replacing a motherboard HP, I will elaborate on my trip.  The most important step was in buying for the motherboard.  I have no HP, but from a dealer on Ebay.  I DID, however, carefully note the model of the motherboard AND the designated HP part number of alternatives on a small paper on the motherboard label.  The same motherboard model is used in several models of HP Office; but, if the number of HP spare parts is matched, the info on the model should be on the motherboard.

  My original problems were solved with the installation of the new Council.  After a router struck by lightning, the ethernet port had stopped working, and when told to stop, or in standby mode, the machine would invariably restart.  The new motherboard solved both problems, which seem to be related to the power surge.

  I installed the new Board of Directors of the Windows 10 updated 500-164 and held my breath I have it powered for the first time.  I was pleasantly surprised to see that everything looked the same as when I left it.  Recognized support assistant the new Board of Directors as part of a desktop computer 500-164.  I have not tried; but I hope that the recovery media will work, if necessary.  Malygris1, do you think that if Support Assistant recognizes the info on the model, the recovery disks will work?  I'm curious to know how it works, but, if not, no big deal, as I now have a new image Acronis 10 Windows installation, which works perfectly on the 500-164 Pavilion (without "Pitfalls", as some have reported with audio, etc. of the wireless card.).

  My second concern was whether or not Windows is always activated with the installation of the new Council.  He said that he "Windows is not activated.  ... Rats and other profanity.  I know it can take time to be put in correspondence with the info from Microsoft, so I updated the bios and checked the rest of the ports for the features of the machine.  I returned in configuration/system Panel and he told me that the activation information were "unavailable" - different from the message 'not active' sooner.  I've been waiting on this screen for a few minutes and the message changed to "Windows is activated"!  I was ready to make Microsoft telephone activation and I had run a keyfinder to get the original MS product key for Windows 8 from the hard drive, but I didn't have to use both methods.

  So, in summary, if you want a card mother 'replacement', shop for the exact number of spare parts HP; not only the MFG part number.  It will save you a lot of grief.  Obviously, if you want to 'upgrade' from your motherboard, all bets are off, because it's a totally different scenario with different issues to deal with.  My project was a complete success at a cost of $103 for the new motherboard and several hours of my time.

• Office Pavilion 500-281: upgrade of processor and graphics HP Pavilion 500-281

  I just bought this HP Pavilion 500-282 3/15/15.  I would like to upgrade from the intel hd graphics card 4400.  Also, I would say to install the I3 I5 4130.   How hard would that be? I upgrade the BIOS?  The power supply is 300 Watts.

  Thanks for any help you can give me.

  [Personal information]

  HERE IS THE SPEC PAGE for this unit.  It lists the processors i5 which will work with the motherboard, just scroll down.

  The intel hd graphics card 4400 is part of the processor but will be promoted to the Intel HD Graphics 4600 (GT2) with any of the i5 processors listed.  If more than one upgrade is necessary, you should know that food can be a problem and the graphical upgrade with Intel onboard graphics is somewhat a problem, too.  Be very sure, through research, that works in the motherboard video card to the study.

  Let's get down to the potential pitfalls:

  1. your HP computer uses Jasmine-R motherboard (MSI MS-7778) with six 6 internal SATA 6 Gb/s ports. beautiful card mother AMD, many SATA ports. GOOD to GO.
  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03757575

  2. it is a MidTower case, with the hard drive mounted on a Vertical support, bottom left (view after removing the side panel). Follow the Web link below, for this how to (open side panel):
  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c04100666

  3. IF you want to add a second drive, in this case a 2.5 "Solid - State Drive (SSD), I see three 3 potential location.

  (A.) mounted horizontally, with support of the adapter in the box below the DVD/CD drive.

  (B) vertically, mounted on the Panel lower front of the computer case.
  A 3.5 "to 2.5" adapter support can facilitate this fixation or the player first itself (using the 4 holes tapped on bottom of SSD) IF the perforations (ventilation, fan, hard drive carrier) line up properly.

  (C.) mounted horizontally on the botton (floor) of the case. Location does not fit all applications.
  The San disk Extreme Pro SSD, I bought in 2014, has been mounting spacer/vibration rubber that could allow this type of editing with a contact adhesive. This montage approach is not appropriate in all cases.

  Selling manufacturers SSD Kits and readers Raw (desktop, laptop)- so working with your store of the local computer for sale retail (££ or €) for a proper selection.

  4. REVIEW the available power cables (SATA style) for their ability to reach these 3 mounting locations.
  Extensions are available from box Mod shops and retail stores.

• the desktop pc Pavilion 500-164 to date of Windows 8 for windows 8.1

  My dealer told me that the 500-164 Pavilion had windows 8.1.  This isn't.  Even if the Assistant on HP site says that it has not been tested, has anyone successfully done?

  Hello:

  I do not have your PC but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't.

  HP provides W8.1 drivers for this model on its support page.

  Before moving to W8.1, I'll make sure to create the W8 recovery media so that if for some reason, something doesn't work well in W8.1, you can restore the operating system and software from the PC to its status of "out of the box.

  And you should do anyway even if you do not upgrade to W8.

  Check out this guide to make your W8 recovery media set.

• HP Pavilion 500-164: the upgrade of the graphics card and power supply on a HP Pavilion 500-164

  I'll be upgrading my HP pavilions integrated HD graphics 8570 D a STRIX ASUS GeForce GTX overclocked 2 GB DDR5 128 - bit DisplayPort HDMI 1 750TI. 4 a/DVI-I graphics card. With that I also improve my diet to a Thermaltake TR2 500W 240 pins power power TR-500. I was wondering if it of ok to do on the computer and will not damage it. It is extra steps when I install these. Initially, I got the PC with windows 8 but have upgraded to windows 10.

  Hello

  If the ASUS 750 TI requires a 6-pin auxiliary power connector and your computer is running a version of HP 8 BIOS then you should be OK.  Open your PC and measure to make sure that graphics card fits.  In addition, open the command RUN and enter: MSINFO32

  Your computer is running a version of HP 8 BIOS?  If so, and if it is possible to install the graphics card then go ahead. Find out what the return policy is before you buy.

  Thanks for posting on the forum.

• HP Pavilion 500-129ea remove Windows8 and install Windows7

  Dear HP support,

  I changed the BIOS to boot from the CD drive by changing

  LEGACY support to ACTIVATE

  and changing

  SECURE BOOT to DISABLE

  Big step forward... BUT while the PC will now boot from the CD drive and start installing Windows 7 (harrah) keyboard USB and mouse are disabled... oh no... It is therefore impossible to proceed with the installation as can not support on enter to confirm implementation of Windows 7 issues.

  That certainly makes my head in.... Please can you advise how to get the USB keyboard and mouse re-activated?

  Thank you

  Hi, Wingie:

  That's good news.

  This smbus controller is the projection because the chipset driver I posted Intel did not work for your model.

  See if Windows 8 from your PC support and driver page works.

• HP pavilion 500-164 hard drive transfer

  HI I am wanting to replace many components in my computer, but instead of buying a new hard drive and the operating system and the file transfer. There are problems in that I'll run or can I just plug it in and start the computer? If Yes is there everything works that I should not.

  No, if you replace everything else the hard drive, you will not need to reinstall windows. All what you need to do is install the hard drive in the new computer (if there are two sata slots) or buy a caddy and remove the optical drive, the best thing is to buy a hard drive enclosure.
