• Pavilion 500-081ea: FRONT USB 3 PORTS don't DO NOT WORK.

  I recently had an ASROCK H61M-DG3/USB3 motherboard mounted in my not so old (18 months) HP Pavilion PC 500 - 081ea & even if original HP 3 USB ports are connected to my new motherboard that do not work.  All the USB in the BIOS settings are turned on & the right USB drivers are installed in "Device Manager" without conflicts I still can't use the two front 3 USB ports.

  Hi Jeff,

  The reference to a technician came from your other messages.  In any case, the cable USB 3 header, as previously mentioned will restrict the question.   I keep this cable in my toolbox for situations like yours when I change sets and motherboards.

• Missing drivers for the new installation of XP SP 3 on HP Pavilion 500-202eo

  Hello.

  So I tried to make XP SP 3 to work on my new desktop HP Pavilion 500-202eo. I have partioned the disk in two and was able to install and modify Windows 7 on the other partition, largely with the support of the HP drivers for my model successfully. However I have not found any support for XP drivers for this model, or any other similar models in the 500 series with APU AMD A6 material - 6400 k Radeon HD graphics card. Installing XP went well, but I'm not having any sound, internet or USB 3 support options. In Device Manager, the following components are marked in yellow with the error code 28:

  Audio device on High Definition Bus Audio

  Ethernet controller

  Network controller

  SM Bus controller

  USB controller Universal Serial Bus

  Video controller VGA compatible

  I tried to install the drivers Realtek for XP at least addressing the absence of sound, but it doesn't seem to make a difference, and when I point the Add Wizard of material on file with the drivers Realtek he says that it cannot find the correct drivers. You have any suggestions where I can find the software needed?

  Hello:

  I doubt that you will be able to do all this work, but that's...

  Your PC has the IDT audio controller so the Realtek audio drivers do not work.

  First install the AMD chipset driver and restart. You want the first file in the list.

• Turn on two HP Pavilion 500-319na DVI ports

  I just bought a HP Pavilion 500-319na which has been described as having 1 x HDMI, 2 x DVI video interfaces.

  The GeForce GT 705 nvidia graphics card has 1 x HDMI, 1 x DVI taken

  The motherboard has also 1 x taken DVI which was capped with a small piece of plastic with "do not remove" on the subject.

  After advice from PC World, I removed the plastic and tried the DVI socket mother who did not work.

  Is there a way of making the motherboard DVI to work in parallel with sockets of graphics cards.

  Finally, I would like to run two monitors from the DVI Sockets at the same time and have the HDMI enabled.

  This is my first Post ever anywhere so apologies if there is not enough information.

  See you soon

  RSPII

  Please provide the full brand and model, for both monitors information, you try to connect to your computer.

  Based on the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion 500-319na, this model has a VGA port (analog only) integrated and an integrated port DVI - D (digital only) as shown below (please NOTE: embedded video is not available if a graphics card is installed);

  

  #4-VGA (analog only) # 5 - DVI - D (digital only)

  Please replace the plastic cover that you previously deleted. There is no way to activate the video ports built-in, although a discrete video card installed.

  NVIDIA GeForce GT 705
  DVI (dual-link) resolution: 2560 x 1600 x 32bpp at 60 Hz
  HDMI resolution: 1920 x 1080
  VGA (via dongle) analog resolution: 2048 x 1536 x 32bpp at 60 Hz
  Support of up to two displays at the same time.

  There are several ways to connect monitors to your computer, but you can use two ports on the NVIDIA GeForce GT 705. The discrete card supports DVI - D (and VGA via a dongle) and HDMI. HDMI signal is the same as DVI - D in this case.

  BETTER (recommended)

  Computer-> DVI - D cable-> monitor #1

  Computer-> HDMI to DVI - D cable-> Monitor #2

  GOOD

  Computer-> HDMI to DVI - D cable-> monitor #1

  Computer-> DVI-D/VGA dongle-> VGA cable-> Monitor #2

• CARD READER USB FOR DESKTOP HP PAVILION 500 - C60?

  I have a new 500 - C60 HP Pavilion desktop computer, but the front card reader does not accept the largest flash Compact Flash (CF) card.  I have an old USB multi-card with four different card slots, which accepts the card see  Would this setting work satisfactorly?

  Thank you

  shamrock838

  Hello @shamrock838,

  I understand that your desktop HP Pavilion 500 - c60 PC does not support the biggest Compact Flash Memory Card and you are curious as to whether or not you can install an USB multicard Reader which accepts the memory card see First of all, you have reason 7 - in1 media card reader did it installed does not supported CF memory card, but it supports the following cards:

  • Digital safe™ (SD)
  • Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC)
  • SDXC
  • Memory Stick
  • Memory Stick Select
  • Memory Stick PRO
  • Memory Stick MagicGate

  I don't see why you can't connect the 4 - in1 USB multicard reader you have. Until the operating system detects and installs, you should be fine.

  I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

• Must regularly restart the DHCP Client - HP Pavilion 500-205 DT - Windows 7

  HP Pavilion 500-205 DT - Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit SP1

  Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller - pilot 7.67.1226.2012

  Bought 3 identical machines for our daycare. Set up the same. All work fine except ONE of them becomes inaccessible periodically (every day more or less) on other computers on our small LAN-to-peer Windows. You can see, but cannot access any shared folder. To access OTHER computers on the local network of it there is NO problem. All 3 machines have the same profile sharing, workgroup, permissions, AV, firewall, all settings. I realized by restarting the computer solved the problem immediately but temporarily. I reduced to restart the DHCP Client service. Do all works well immediately, but temporarily.

  I tried the things:

  Call support HP - not useful at all. It is under warranty.

  IPv6 disabled

  Disabled wireless

  Disabled network card stopcock energy saving

  Definition of recovery CLIENT DHCP on:

  First failure = restarting the Service

  Second failure = restarting the Service

  Subsequent failures = restarting the Service

  Reset Fail Count after = 120

  Restart the Service after = 0

  But again, this is not the case for other machines with the default settings. Nothing works except the Client DHCP service is restarted. Loss of access occurs with or without someone connected or using it. It has happened since its first establishment.

  I don't know if the HP warranty covers the OS loaded at the factory. I don't want to restore the thing and start over. I'm not a Pro, just the guy in the office who did these things, but it seems that the network card may be faulty. I don't know if I can convince a person of first level support phone to have me bring the machine in an approved place.

  Any help greatly appreciated,

  Larry

  HP sends a FedEx box to put the thing in picked it up. I'll mark this resolved thing. Thank you all for your comments!

• HP pavilion 500 - a60: erratic internet connection

  With the help of hp pavilion 500 - a60. 3 years.  Just go to uverse internet.  Several times per minute for 10 seconds let connect to internet and flickiering of thin lines on the screen.  Att says tech problem is w/workstation.  It was suggested that it is to old for higher speeds of the internet.  Running @16. 75 Kbps.  Also the virus/malware issue.  I found some maleware and it was quarentined.  Do I have to old one computer or is there a problem of processer, virus problem?  Thanks for the help.

  Hi there @Packie33,

  That the Forums are with you!  I understand that you are having problems with your internet connection.  I'm happy to give you a helping hand with this.

  First of all, in response to the assertion of a fact on your system by being too old for a connection high speed, it is false. Your computer is configured with Windows 8 or 8.1. Computers that were there when Windows 98 came out were capable of high speed internet of one kind or another.

  A more valid concern is what is happening on your computer or with the hardware or virus/malware problems that you described.

  I suggest that you first cross this document: HP - slow Internet troubleshooting (10, 8 Windows) computers, but for the time being refrain from Step 7. You can try your ISP again later.

  Depending on whether your connection is wireless or wired try one of these documents:

  HP PC - Troubleshooting wireless network and Internet (Windows 10)

  HP PC - troubleshooting wired home networks (Windows 10)

  After everything checked and if your connection is still slow, then try contacting your ISP again.

  Please let me know if it works for you and if it does not solve your problem, please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.

• How to clear the BIOS on an HP Pavilion 500-214ed

  Hi all

  in a Flash of genius unprecedented I accidentally disabled all the USB ports on my Pavilion 500-214ed. Which now leaves me with a useless system, since both USB keyboard and mouse do not work. So I need to reset the BIOS to factory settings.

  I have found the ROM_RECOVERY (E16) jumper on the motherboard, which I guess is that I need to clear the BIOS, but I can't find a manual or something to let me know which jumper settings, I need.

  Can someone point me in the right direction?

  Thanks in advance

  Steve

  Hi, Steve:

  Normally, you can find that info on the motherboard plug page but it isn't here.

  Have you tried to unplug the PC and carefully remove the cmos battery room and pressing the power button to remove all residual power to the motherboard?

  If all goes well, remove the cmos battery will also clear the BIOS settings.

  But if you look at the motherboard first, there are no jumpers labelled CMOS and password?

• HP Pavilion 500-314: big problems by adding an external video card

  You are looking for assistance.

  I recently bought a HP Pavilion 500-314.  Specifications are the following:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c04293928

  The unit includes the integrated graphics card Radeon R7 and comes with a 300w power supply

  I bought this unit in large part because it states explicitly that "supports PCI Express x 16 graphics cards".  I run a quad-monitor configuration for my work and traditionally did it this using a card ATI over-pants 2450.

  I tried now three different external graphics cards and can get any of them to work:

  First attempt was with a VisionTec Radeon HD 5570 (point #900345).  This card supports quad-monitor configuration and requires a minimum power of 250w.  When I installed the card, the HP Pavilion beeps several times a series of 4 or 5 (can't remember which) emits a beep, but refused to send an image to a video output (either on board or the new card).

  Next attempt was with an EVGA GeForce GT 610.  It's a Setup dual monitor and requires a minimum 300w power supply.  Got the same exact response as with the VisionTec (i.e. the series of beeps... computer would not start all monitors).

  So both of these cards (new), I basically gave up immediately that I couldn't in the BIOS (b/c wouldn't monitors) to see what was going on.  My understanding is that the series of 4-5 beeps usually means that there is a problem of graphics card, or the card that was added doesn't have enough power.  It's frustrating, because the HP Pavilion 500-314 a supposedly a 300w power supply, which is at least equal to the minimum required for each of these cards.

  At this point, I took out the ATI over-pants 2450 my old machine and tried.  This card at least has not caused the series of 4-5 beeps.  Windows has started.  However, once I log in, Windows tries to install the new (card over-pants) repeatedly, only then, the screen flashes and blinks and flashes.  Then I went into the BIOS.  The BIOS indicates that the system recognizes the card, and that the integrated video has been disabled.  However, there is always a signal coming out of the onboard video output (DVI), so it is not in fact actually disabled.  My feeling is that Windows is trying to control two separate video cards (edge + external), which is what causes the problems.  I can turn off the graphics card over-pants w/under Windows (in Safe Mode) and let the card installed, and things work fine.  However, as soon as I try and activate the card, I get endless cycle flashing monitors.

  I spent a few long sessions with HP technical support and they were useless.  They claim that this is not a problem of HP as the embedded video works fine.  I find this extremely frustrating response.  I think it is a matter of HP, because BIOS doesn't seem to be properly disable the onboard video.  Not to mention that the PC can't seem to properly interface with Windows compatible 8 PCI-E cards that claim explicitly require less energy than this unit has.

  I'm usually pretty computer savvy, but have reached my wits end on this one.  I'd appreciate any help anyone could provide.  I tried all kinds of combinations of variables (i.e. enabling integrated video, setting external card at the elementary level, etc.) through the BIOS, but also combinations of w/under Windows, disable integrated video, but nothing is working.

  900345 VisionTek Radeon HD 5570 1 GB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x 16

  Big_Dave,

  Thanks a lot for your quick response.

  The first time that I spoke with HP support, they had me disable secure boot.  Unfortunately my problems (i.e. the cards would not install correctly).  However, after reading the link you provided that I was inspired to try things one last time with a new beginning.  I uninstalled all drivers, removed all cards, re-engaged start-up secured, restarted, close, disabled secure boot, reinstalled the cards and rebooted.  And, this time, the system accepts the card GeForce GT 610.

  Difficult for me to express how grateful I am to you.  I spent two weeks and countless hours trying to get this corrected.  Just I found these forums earlier wish.

• 500-300na Pavilion: problem with Pavilion 500-300na (mother of Memphis-S) - Dead / no beeps sound and video

  Hello - I hope someone can help me please
  
  I have desktop PC HP Pavilion 500-300na.
  The PC worked very well without problem - I went for a stay of two weeks during which the PC was not in use and power was turned off. I'm back from vacation and the PC does not work now.
  
  When you press the power button, the LED lights up, CPU fan, electric fan and the two spin system fan. There is no video. There is no beep error codes. What is it - actually dead.
  If I hold the button for about 5 to 10 seconds, the fans run down, but the rest spinning CPU fan.
  
  What I've done so far:

  Tried another monitor.
  Tried a different power supply.
  Powered by the motherboard on its own with any other disconnected.
  Taken the Cmos battery on the motherboard for 1 min and replaced it.
  Clean the dust from the fans (they were not so bad as to be honest).
  
  The machine worked with in PCI16 slot video card - I removed this for the test. As I can't get into the Bios, I can't put in the work of the "mother video card." Not sure if it is a problem.
  The unit has a strip of 8 GB of ram DDR3 - I tried this in another location without any changes.
  I have not tested the ram. I have not tested the CPU or deleted one of the fans / heat sinks.
  
  Thanks for any help you can provide
  Chris

  Okay, I think THAT I managed to fix it and understand what the problem was.
  
  I think the problem was double - first of all, before the problem started, Technical Assistance from HP have a BIOS update and download. I think that this update changed the Startup Configuration in the BIOS to "ENABLED" Secure.
  
  Not really a problem. . BUT...
  
  The video card I was running was a riser and secure boot DISABLED neeeded and legacy support ENABLED.
  
  I have reset the BIOS using the jumper (bios password) information – I also did a 'blind' changing information from the bios to switch to the use of the video of the motherboard (bash F10 for 10 seconds at the start, then three arrows down, then two returns... This pass BIOS to "Apply default settings and exit"). I don't know who really helped, but the machine comes up in life.
  
  I put the information here, in which case another experience a similar problem.

• HP Pavilion 500-242ea: Ram upgrade

  Hi I have a desktop computer Pavilion 500 - 242ea 64-bit with 6 GB of ram installed 1 x 2 gb Hynix/Hyundai 1600 mhz and 1 x 4 gb Samsung 1600 mhz.

  I would like to increase my ram by an additional 8 GB with a 2 x 4 GB - 1600 mhz cards in empty slots, all first is it possible and secondly what do you sugest?

  My motherboard has four 240-pin ddr dimm sockets plug say this upgrade may be: -.

  PC3-10600 (DDR3-1333) or

  PC3-12800 (DDR3-1600) or

  PC3-14400 (DDR3-1866),

  32 GB unbuffered memory total

  I look forward to your response.

  You can add memory for each vacant home.   I would add two DDR3 2048 MB PC3-12800 (800 mhz) to this system.  But if you wanted to add two 4096 modules, I see no problem.
