Pavilion m8000n BIOS... gone?

I've been to the taken with get any graphics card to work in my m8000n Pavilion, a Nvidia 8800 GTS and GTX 280 from Nvidia, I guess that this computer auto-reconnaîtrait these cards after plugging the moniter in there, but it doesn't seem to be the case.

I cannot access the BIOS, I rebooted the computer about 100 + times try different keys (F1, F2, F10, F12 and Del especially) and each unique key on the keyboard (literally) which leads me to the screen of "Windows Boot Manager". Is my non-existent BIOS?

I got this computer sitting for awhile and recently decided to make life grew. Vista always starts well, I recently used the recovery tool for a new, clean facility.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Claudine, welcome to the forum.

I think that your problem is the power supply unit (PSU) in the computer.  The record shows that it is 300W.  The nVidia 280GTX requires 550W to work properly.

  • How to access the BIOS Setup - Pavilion P6650z, BIOS Version 6.04

    I have a 2 years, Pavilion P6650z, BIOS Version 6.04, AMD Athlon II 250 dual-core processor. Using Microsoft havdetectiontool, I checked the processor is capable of virtualization hardware-so, but I need to enable it. Problem: I have not been able to get to where I CAN enable it. I can access the BIOS settings by pressing F10 on start up, but I do not see the choice for the configuration of the BIOS, either on the main screen or advanced Sceen. Instead of press F10, I tried the key ESC and F2 button without success.

    I understand that you are looking for documentation of the HP Pavilion Cognac BIOS update. Unfortunately, the only information I can find on this update is located on the page I linked to you.

    I found the release notes.  Where everyone is looking to get this info, it's here:

    Technical release notes:

  • The HP Pavilion a6560z bios update

    I have a HP Pavilion a6560z. Product #: KZ851AV

    I tried to upgrade the processor of double base installed to a phenom x 4 9550, that my research shows is compatible as long as I have updated the bios. I am currently running bios version 5.14 20/06/2008. My problem is the OS original on this PC is Vista, I erased this OS and now run Win 7. I found an update of bios, version 5.49 but she said do not be there except if Vista is installed. Will install this bios brick Council since its desingned for vista?

    I can't enter the bios with the 9550 installed but it does not start in windows. The bios shows that it is a blah blah Phenom quad core, so at least he acknowledges that, but when I try to load windows it says "the file is maybe damaged. The file header checksum does not match the checksum calculated. "I read that had a memory problem and tried 8 different sticks, all with the same result, so I thought it was a bios problem. Anyway, any help on a version of bios, I can try without bricking advice would be greatly appreciated. Even if its for Vista that I am always willing to try. This pc is not much of value. Thank you.

    You are welcome.

    Thanks for the quick response. Last question, if I could somehow reinstall Vista (system recovery is not an option) and then perform the bios update I was able to install windows 7 and then continue with the new (er) cpu?

    I checked the page download software & driver of the computer for an update of the BIOS for Vista and Vista 64-bit.  It seems not to be available.  You cannot use a retail BIOS update.  Where did you find a BIOS update?

  • HP Pavilion p6733w: BIOS version question

    HP experts out there or anyone with better information resources?  I'm looking for what type of BIOS initially provided with my computer, a HP Pavilion p6733w with a motherboard RS880 H-Alvorix.

    Hi there @chocolatejeebus,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I understand that you are looking for more information on the original BIOS installed on your system. I'm happy to help you with this.

    If you've never updated the BIOS on your system, or if you have updated once, then the original BIOS must always be available on your computer. This is your current BIOS or you can eat to help: desktop HP - BIOS recovery.

    The support page for your system, HP Pavilion p6733w Desktop PC, the BIOS for the Board you describe is: N-Alvorix-RS880 motherboard BIOS Update Rev A 6.07. There is no earlier version described at all.

    Please let me know if that answers your question, and if so, please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.
