Pavilion Media Center m8430f Desktop video card replacement

For about a month now my desktop computer Pavilion Media Center m8430f is at the origin of the yellow spots, blue stripes and dots to arrive on the screen then the computer hangs. Moniter is a G185h Acer which I use from 2010 when the original monitor is released.  I also get yellow wavy lines then in safe mode.

So the thought is the video card went bad and needs replaced.  I picked up a Galaxy GeForce NVIDIA GT 610 to replace the NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT. Two questions - will be my Pavilion Media Center m8430fbe to handle this card? How could I go on install?  I checked the instructions to install a new video card, but none of them relates to my machine.

I thank you in advance for any help or insght, you can give in this case.

According to the specifications of your desktop PC and your new GalaxyTech video card, it should be a good fit and work without problems.

You connected a different view to make sure that was not the view South instead of the video card prior to purchase of the video card?

I will try to find a video for you on how to replace the map.  Fact!

The video I found must be adapted. Your original PCI Express X 16 video card not a probably not power connector 6 pin which is described in the video, or the connector on the fan.

The video author does not mention it, but for safety reasons, remove the power connector. Unplugging everything. Working with the PC as it does and use a table or a workbench with everything external to the offline desktop.

  • HP Pavilion Media Center m747On desktop computer. Not sure but I think I have Windows 8.

    I get an error message when I turn on the computer. The error is "RUNDLL error loading c:\windows|svonerg.dl the specified module is not found" got this message quite some time and do not know how to fix it.

    Your computer is originally shipped with XP Media Center Edition 2005.
    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00619308
    If you have Windows 8, then it has been upgraded. A system file is missing or damaged. The easy response is to back up your important files and do a full restore of the Hp system - this will eliminate completely all files and you need to reinstall your software and re-download the updates of Windows.

  • HP Pavilion Media Center a1440: HP Pavilion Media Center a1440n Desktop PC ram compatibility upgrade

    Can I replace the ram (1 x pc-4200) original with 4 x1GB 240-pin DDR2 667 (PC2-5300) ECC SDRAM Desktop memory?

    Eastvanray, welcome to the forum.

    This is memory that is supported by the motherboard:

    Four connectors DIMM DDR2 240-pin

    Supports PC2-3200 (400 MHz), PC-4200 (533 MHz) and PC-5300 (667 MHz) DDR DIMM

    HP/Compaq approved maximum memory is 4 GB *.

    Note: * actual available memory may be less

    The memory that you want to install says it is ECC.  I think that the motherboard use more memory non - ECC.  Furthermore, I believe that your OS is 32-bit.  Therefore, only 3.25 GB of memory would be usable.

    Looks like you're trolling through the event viewer? If so, these are just connected to the events that occurred on your PC... most if not all are normal and should not be something the average user needs to mess with. For example, the print spooler task often leads to a yellow where the spectator bang when starting, but works fine afterwards.

  • Beep short + Long - HP Pavilion Media Center PC

    Can someone tell me what is the error, because the PC won't even be the bios screen? Spontaneously, he stopped working and only gives these beep codes as your comments, which are totally different from the documented standard beep codes... No contoumement not spotted on the card either... I am considering buying a new motherboard, but would like to know what happened. :/

    I think it's a HP Pavilion Media Center m8530f desktop PC, but could have confused the model number... it is certainly the same as this one. It has a BIOS of HP, so I looked at the HP Bios Beep Codes, but these beeps are certainly not one of those documented...

    I filmed and uploaded the beeps on youtube, please take a look:

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=yFl0McDRtmQ

    I first thought the old popped capacitors on the mobo was the problem... I've replaced but still no go...

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    EthemD, welcome to the forum.

    You did a great job recording audio signals.  I read them as a short and a long.  That tells me that you probably have a memory problem.  Here is a guide that you can see what I mean.

  • HP pavilion media center a1610n pci slot?

    Hello, I have a hp pavilion media center a1610n I bought 6 years ago and it still works great! However I just bought a new graphics card to update my computer a bit and the card company chart says my computer needs to have a location express pci 2.0
    How can I tell if my computer is compatible with this graphics card and what type of pci slot I have? Help, please!

    Here are the specifications of your HP Pavilion Media Center a1610n desktop and its card mother A8M2N-(NodusM3). According to specifications, your system was introduced on August 4, 2006 and has a slot PCIe x 16 for a graphics card. Based on this information, I guess he has a PCIe v1.1 location. This should be compatible with most cards PCIe v2.0, but will have problems with PCIe v2.1 and latest maps. Another element to consider is the power to your computer. Many, if not more, HP computers of consumers of this era came with 250 watts power supplies and the vast majority of the PCIe x 16 graphics card requires a minimum assessment of 300 watt or greater system.

  • Pavilion Media Center M8400f Bios Update for Windows 7

    HP Pavilion Media Center m8400f. The Vista operating system has been replaced by Windows 7 (64 bit) a number of years.

    I've updated one of my hard drives with a SanDisk SSD (it is now my main drive with the operating system and all my files on board).

    The bios on the PC has never been updated.

    The SanDisk SSD dashboard software will not recognize the SanDisk SSD as the system has designated the SSD as a SCSI device. I need to access the bios for this change to AHCI. The current bios does not support this.

    The PC has a card mother MCP61PM-HM. There is no update for Windows 7 BIOS for that motherboard I know (updates Vista only).

     

    SanDisk gave me a link to http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=pv-82094-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&... that shows a card mother M2P61PM-HM for m8400f desktop PC. This Bios download supports Windows 7 (64 bit).

    Can update the Bios to download safely a card mother M2P61PM-HM for card mother MCP61PM-HM I currently have?

    Hello

    The HP BIOS update link provided SanDisk is an update of the BIOS of your PC. It is listed under Win Vista 64 bit driver downloads here.

    If you look at the site to download the drivers for your PC you'll only see driver support for Win Vista but on 2010-04-08, Version 5.29, 1.47 M BIOS updatedshows support for Win 7.

    But the problem is this: the BIOS updates must be performed using the PC operating system comes with; in your case, Win Vista. Extreme care must be exercised when updating the BIOS under normal circumstances. I would not classify your situation as usual.

    I saw others download an update of the BIOS for their PC and try to install an operating system upgraded with disastrous effects. The PC was bricked.

    Be prepared for the worst case if you try to install the update to the BIOS.

  • No sound with hp pavilion media center m8020n

    Almost 2 years, I got the video card replaced in my HP Pavilion Media Center m8020n.  Shortly after, the noise disappeared.  I have Windows Vista and an HP w1907 19 '' LCD monitor.  I have tried everything I can think to restore the sound and would like to know if the problem is the PC, speakers in the monitor, of which.  Thank you.

    Hello:

    Your replacement video card has an HDMI output port?

    If so, probably disabled video card audio system integrated.

    To activate the onboard video, enter the BIOS, find the onboard audio setting.

    It will be set to auto or off.  Change the setting to "Enabled".  Save the configuration when you have made the change and again when you exit the BIOS (save settings and exit).

    When you restart and return to windows, you should have the on-board audio back.

    If your new card video has no hdmi port, or your audio settings on the BIOS is already active, then unfortunately, I don't know what could be the issue.

  • Missing on HP Pavilion Media Center m8407c SM bus controller

    So I just picked up a Hp Pavilion Media Center m8407c on E - bay and had to install Windows Vista 32 bit, because it came without an operating system.  Downloaded and installed all the drivers of HP and updated windows. There's still no SM bus controller. Have seen this before and tried to install the Intel chipset drivers, but it wouldn't let me until I removed my Nvidia Geforce 8500 GT graphics card and used the video edge. Then, I was able to install the drivers for the G33 chipset which he is supposed to have, but still no SM bus controller.  All the drivers, patches, etc. are installed and up-to-date.  If anyone can help me on this, I'd appreciate it. Thank you!
