Pavilion HPE H8-1121: Pavilion HPE H8-1121 - new graphics card + power supply does not start after screen HP (Revisited)

I have the same problem as this post 2013!  Ouch. Pavilion HPE H8-1121 - new map chart + power supply, does not start after HP screen.

I installed a new power supply (Seasonic 620W), which works well.  I also installed a GTX 660Ti last year and it was works fine as well.  I recently bought a ZOTAC GTX 970 and attempted to install it, but it will not go beyond the blue HP screen and I get the same code of beeps (1 long, 3 short), who, seems, suggests that the video is not initialized.

My BIOS date is 2011.

Where can I find an update for this?

I'm also using Windows 10, which I found on the HP site is not tested on my model and would probably not favourable to good use.  Should I do back up to 7 or 8?  and then update the BIOS?  Y at - it a update for my BIOS and where can I find.

In any case, I hope that this is a solution.  Again, this is not a bad machine to be 5 years old.

Thanks for any help!

If the video card that you have purchased dose not a legacy vBIOS it will never start. An update of the BIOS doesn't solve that.

It is likely that your new video card has a vBIOS UEFI and that only is for the PC motherboards newer than yours which have a UEFI BIOS. Your motherboard has a legacy BIOS. 2012 is the year of model when the UEFI BIOS more or less became the de facto on motherboards standard.

I return it for a refund. Find the candidate of video cards that support the old BIOS. It can be inherited only or switchable vBIOS (legacy or UEFI) vBIOS.  I suggest looking at the site of Sapphire Technology. ZoTac is not known to provide enough information about their video cards in the way. You upgrade a pre-built desktop PC and it's different and a little more difficult to set up a DIY PC. I looked at the site of Zotac and see that nothing is said about their video vBIOS cards.  I would return to the map.  Carefully read the specifications of the video card. A candidate for your motherboard card must have inherited vBIOS support or simply, it won't work.

ZOTAC (they don't say anything about their product vBIOS)

Sapphire Technology

Because you look at game with 4 GB cards. Take a look at the following map. It has a double vBIOS. legacy and UEFI. http://www.sapphiretech.com/productdetial.asp?pid=640A98CD-0CF0-4191-B75C-CA2800111ADB&lang=eng

  • Pavilion p6 - 2020t: HP-Pavilion will identify the new graphics card

    Hello

    I got a HP Pavilion for a few years now and never updated my BIOS (not that I know well). I'm trying to install a new graphics (gtx 750ti) card and the computer does not recognize it. It shows the first screen, and then a black screen and a beep, then it crashes. Keyboard does not work, cannot get into the BIOS.

    I tried everythign with current BIOS, boot legacy and ensuring that the Integrated GPU is disabled, and nothing works. I also did research on food, and but it is not terrible, it should work with this graphics card (the fan even spinning).

    According to my research, the current BIOS is simply not recognize, and I need to update. My current version is: FRIEND 7.16, 05/10/2011

    I navagate through the HP website and it said that the automatic update should update the BIOS for Windows 10, and it won't let me download all drivers (although the last BIOS update was 2011). I tried to enter the FRIEND's site and download it from there and it won't even install their drivers, it says that flash is not supported (probably for Windows 10).

    If someone could give me an idea of how can I get a newer version of the BIOS for my motherboard, it would be much appreciated as I'm pretty sure that's the reason why the computer is not recognizing the new graphics card

    The risk is that the video card is one that is for a newer PC with an EFI BIOS. That's why the empty card is not recognized.

    If you use a card equipped with a switch on the virtual card allowing the use in legacy and uefi BIOS it will work with the BIOS of your PC.

    Sapphire makes video cards that have this capability. Take a look at the catalogue. What you need is a PCIE x 16 card video with switchable legacy\uefi BIOS or legacy support, but not only UEFI.

    http://www.sapphiretech.com/catapage_tech.asp?cataid=8 & lang = eng

    You cannot change the type of BIOS that your PC has in the UEFI.  It's a question of his being of a generation of diferent from the PC.

  • Pavilion HPE h8-1330z CTO: video card dying fan, tried to replace the card, the computer does not start

    This Pavilion comes preinstalled with a nVidia GeForce GT 630 graphics card. The fan on the card goes bad - the card smells "burny" when I run, the fan works really hard and the computer crashes while playing graphics-heavy games.

    I tried replacing a PNY Verto GeForce GT 730 2048 MB DDR3 card. But now, with the Verto installed, my flag starts, it crashes just on the HP splash screen. I can not start safe mode nor can I access the BIOS settings.

    Care of the Verto seemed to think it would work in my Pavilion - PCIe 2.0, at least 300W PSU. I searched online for help but can't find a solution for my problem.

    Any tips?

    I checked the support page for my Pavlillion and I noticed a updated driver for my computer's BIOS. I installed and it seems to have solved the problem.

  • HP Pavilion does not start after upgrading Windows 10

    (Sorry for my bad English)
    Last night I started to update my HP Pavilion Windows 8.1 to 10, but I have a problem, because today, in the morning, the update was 99%, and it ended, just after I have shut down the computer and is going to school and when I got home, I turned on my HP and the problem was that the HP logo appeared and he began to load , but he didn't only show anything else than that, so I thought I'd let load after 3 hours, it was still loading and it was reseting every 5 minutes and now I just can't not try windows 10. Help?

    Hi there @lmao1,

    Thank you for joining the Forums HP's Support and welcome! It is a great place to ask questions, find solutions and get help from others in the community! I read your post on the Forums of HP Support. I wanted to join you and help! I understand that once you tried to upgrade to Windows 10, now stuck on the HP Logo at startup.

    If the computer hangs at the HP logo screen, try to clean the vents from the computer to the air and then restarting the laptop.

    Please note , remove all USB devices. Disconnect all devices of non-essential, as these can cause some problems.

    Have you tried a hard reset?

    Have you tried to Test for hardware failures?

    Are - that you receive error messages or error codes?

    You happen to see a blue "option ' screen at all? '"

    Follow these steps to remove and reinsert the memory modules for troubleshooting:
  • Pavilion DV6-2140ED: Pavilion DV6: 10 Windows does not start after the upgrade memory (4 GB-> 8 GB)

    After I upgraded the RAM in my HP DV6 from 4 GB to 8 GB (2 x 4 GB Kingston KTA-MB1333 / 4G), Windows no longer starts. I get a blue screen and it keeps restarting.

    I think that the memory specifications are similar to the Samsung M471B5673EH1-CH9 original memory: Ghz 1333, non - ecc, 1.5 volts, case latency 9 etc.etc.

    It's a laptop DV6-2140ED HP with a processor Intel i5 - 430 m and Intel mobile chipset HM55.

    The bios detects 8 GB and it also passes the check/test of memory. As far as I know that I have also installed the latest bios firmware: F.1D. Reinstall my Windows 10 64 bit does not work either: with 8 GB I also get blue screens, after I try to boot my Windows 10 bootable USB drive.

    I read other people having the same problem, but I have not read a solution yet. What can we do about it?

  • HP Pavilion p6210pt desktop PC: after the installation of the new module of RAM PC does not start and continues to beep.

    Hello

    I am trying to upgrade the RAM on my PC. I don't know I got the correct specifications: 240 pin DDR3 PC3 - 10600 1333 MHz

    And it comes to envy, I bought, Kingston.

    The PC has 6 GB of RAM and a free slot, after I insert the new module on the free location corretly and press power, the PC does not start. It starts just a beep and the screen remains black.

    Don't know how better to explain this.

    If I take the new RAM all works normally. If I take old modules and just start by the new, the same thing happens, computer won't start not and just keeps to the beep. One of the Tweets is longer than the other, and then it repeats.

    Can anyone help please, it's just the motherboard it is too old or something?

  • Pavilion g6-1311eo does not start after overheating

    Ive had my computer for years (expired warranty) and it worked very well, but he's always been very prone to overheating. A week ago it overheated (again), and after that, it did not start more. I press the power button, I see caps light once or twice (Yes, indeed, when to leave, he could show only once, and then click next two times longer and so on..).  boot goes like this: first it will normally come this screen which reads "press ESC to the start menu", hten screen turns black and it should open windows but it doesn't. Instead, she made a reboot and it all the time. Ive ran all diagnostics and those who say just spent at all. I also tried 'hard reset' but has no effect. Also doesn't F11 at startup (System Recovery). Any help is appreciated.

    Hello diibadaaba, welcome to the Forums of HP.

    I see that your laptop will not boot properly after the current overheating issues. I will try to help you with this.

    You mentioned that all hardware tests have passed. I always have the feeling that this could be a hardware problem, but would you try this first.

    As you can not use F11 to launch the Recovery Manager, you have a recovery media? I would like that you try to start the system recovery:
       View set to recover the operating system or reinstall the operating system.

    If you don't have a recovery media and you need to get some:
        Get a drive HP USB recovery or HP recovery disks.

    Let me know if you were able to do this and if you can get into Windows then.
    Thanks for posting on the HP Forums.

  • HP Pavilion dv9260nr does not start after the bios update

    After the HP Health Check, it was recommended that I have updated to the current bios.  After you have downloaded and installed, the computer would not start.  Instead, it emits a long beep and 2 short beeps and the screen is blank.  How can I recover a bios update failed?  Is there a way to return the computer to the bios Setup?

    I thought I would post here to help others as I just spent 5 hours to fix this problem. I have personally experienced this on two different computers, both are model DV9260NR. I woke up in the long and short two beep power. The first time it happened, I tried to fix the BIOS by using the recovery disk, but it didn't work. I tried this using a USB floppy like any other player. The floppy drive should get accessible, then machine would be on a second beep then stop, but it would remain under tension. The first time around I gave up and eventually return it to HP as it was under warranty. This time above the current problem computer is more under warranty so I decided to test out of old college. After trying several discs crisis different Phoenix, I finally found one that worked.

    I downloaded crisdisk.zip here:

    http://www.mediafire.com/?3ccb9m0kv0m

    Followed by the latest bios from HP for the DV9260NR

    FTP://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp42001-42500/sp42187.exe

    I used 7 - zip to extract the files in sp42187.exe and crisdisk.zip

    go to the folder where you extracted sp42187.exe and rename it to 30BBF2D. WPH into the BIOS. WPH

    Copy BIOS.wph to the folder where your snippet CRISDISK.zip

    I have created my disk in Vista, so don't worry about going "Real DOS".

    YOU MUST USE CRISDISK TO CREATE THE DISC!  SIMPLY COPY THE RIGHT FILES ON A FLOPPY DISK DID NOT WORK!

    Open a command prompt, I used command.com not cmd.exe

    CD to the folder CRISDISK.

    At the prompt enter: "CRISDISK. "BAT HAS:

    Finally, put in a blank disk and follow the instructions.

    Once the disk created, slap this puppy in a floppy USB drive and plug it into the computer.  I didn't need to use as or Windows + B, B FN hotkeys to trigger the BIOS recovery. The system entered in the BIOS for me recovery mode and tried to access the USB floppy.  I noticed that not all USB ports will work.  I plugged my USB stick, floppy to the next to the power supply.  If all goes well just turn on the computer with connected USB floppy drive and the disc in the drive. As before the system beeps once per second during playback of the disc.  The disk activity, arrested again, but this time that the system kept beep immediately after discontinuation of access to the drive.  These beeps point you out that the BIOS is flashed, it's just leave turn. When it was made the machine itself set off.  If yours is not, so I doubt that the BIOS recovery will succeed. I then unplugged the USB floppy drive, turned on again and to my surprise I was greeted by the HP and the BIOS logo!  I hope this helps people difficulty of their DV9260NR.  I met four dv9260nr machines and two of them does not update the BIOS using WinPhlash and the finished machine trashed, not good statistically.  I hope that others with the same model will be able to get their machinery running. I'd be curious to know if it works for others.  Post here if you are or do not succeed using this procedure. Good luck!

  • Pavilion HDX 16: Windows 7 does not start after the upgrade to Windows 10

    Hello

    I have a system to dual-boot with windows 7 and ubuntu (with Windows 7 and NeoGrub Bootloader Windows Boot Manager).

    Recently, I upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10 via free upgrade offered by SM. However, I didn't like windows 10 and tried to upgrade to windows 7 by the following settings-> update of the security & -> Recovery-> Go Back to Windows 7.

    After the long process of decommissioning, cannot start windows 7 and the "Startup Repair" tool began to run. However, he could not solve the problem. Other recovery options 'system restore' and 'image system recovery' is not such that it could not find any restore point or the image created previously (I'm sure it were created before upgrade restore points).

    So, although I can boot ubuntu without any problem, I can't start windows 7. After the "starting windows" screen, I get the blue screen (a problem has been detected and windows has been shut down...).

    I intend to use the DVD to install windows 7 for repair, but

    (1) I don't know if I can boot from the CD because it is a dual-boot configuration

    (2) I'm afraid of losing work ubuntu OS.

    I appreciate if someone can help me find my Windows 7. I thank very you much for your time.

    Sorry, but there are a lot of reports on forums of Win10 the option of GoBack does not always work correctly.

    You should be able to boot properly from the same DVD of Win7 if you dual-boot with Ubuntu, but be aware, if the startup repair works (you may need to run three times), it will replace the link to start Linux in the MBR and after that, the machine starts immediately to Win7.  You will need to reinstall GRUB to get Ubuntu boot back.  You may be able to fix the boot of Ubuntu using repair boot: Boot-Repair - Community Ubuntu Documentation

  • Desktop Pavilion a6742p does not start after the HP screen

    Less than a box of 64-bit years with 6 GB of RAM, Vista Home Premium.

    Does load the HP screen without feature, no possibility to go to recovery or utilities. No fan, no HD no spin.

    Not removable drive storage (only connected when you fill out the backup).

    No help from HP... "" I'm sorry it's just out of warranty now.

    Any suggestions? I'll spend some time to read through this "blockages, freezes and crashes" thread but can't find anything in 'search' on an a6742p.

    Thanks in advance!

    8lives, thank you for your answers to my question.

    Remembered that I bought an extended warranty on it (what turned out be the good investment given the HP was a week on the 1 year warranty.)

  • Pavilion p7-1040nl: the BIOS update gone wrong; PC does not start.

    Hi, I tried to update my BIOS yesterday, but in the middle of doing so, there was a short cut (what are the chances right?). If the update is not good. And now my pc won't start at all. At the beginning until you get 8 beeps, the hard drive of fans, etc. seem to start, but there is NO video signal and the pc does not continue to start. So I can't even in the BIOS menu, because the monitor remains in sleepmode.
    I tried all the fixes I have found here and on other sites without success. Do you have the cmos pass the thing, disconnected all the pieces one by one, tried to boot with the USB with the BIOS on this subject, but still nothing.
    Does anyone know what anyone else I can try? Or should I accept that my pc is over?

    Any suggestion is appreciated.

    Have you tried clearing the COMS as in the instaructions on the document next to the motherboard web?

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02668523

    I recommend to remove the CMOS battery while the cmos clear. Hold the power button for five seconds while the rider is on the position unequivocally @.

    If it does not, then it's time for a new source desktop PC.

    "BOOTMGR is missing".

    Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart»

    The case began after my computer froze and I forced the reboot.

    I guess that the hard drive is a gonner. Is this correct?

    Hi Mario,.

    Personally, I recommend to replace the hard drive yourself - it is a surprisingly simple process (and much cheaper).  A brief guide on this is detailed below.

    Your computer is listed as coming with a 500 GB hard drive, but you can also easily install a 750 GB HARD drive if you want a little more space - readers at the following links are examples that would be perfect for your laptop.

    Hard drive 500 GB

    750 GB hard drive.

    The procedure to replace the hard drive begins on Page 61 of your & Maintenance Guide.

    Once this is done, simply use your recovery media to reinstall the operating system on the new drive - this is described in the document of HP here.

    If you do not have your recovery media, let me know because there is another option, you can use it as long as you can clearly read the activation of 25-character product key on your label COST.
