  Hi there @Jason1966,

  That the Forums are with you!  I understand that you are looking for advice on upgrading a graphics card.  I'm happy to help you with this.

  Please report the number of complete product from your computer. Check out the following, if you need assistance with this information. HP desktop PC - how can I find my model number, serial number or product?  Once I got that I can give you more in the way of what to look for.

  In general, you should know what types of expansion slots your computer is available. More recent graphics cards will focus you on PCI Express x 16 slots and their willingness to be a version or the generation of these slots.  If the motherboard has only Gen 1.0, and the graphics card is Gen 3.0, then the card would work, but it will run more slowly he would in a slot of Gen 3.0. So you want to look at the capacity of your computer's power supply. A common value is 300 W. Higher end graphics cards will be a requirement of minimum recommended power of 400 W or more, although there are cards with a lower requirement. It is always better to have a power that exceeds the minimum value. Also related to food some graphics cards require extra power of a specific type connections. You must make sure that your diet has these connections available. Then, make sure that the card has drivers for the operating system installed on your computer, and if the card is UEFI, make sure that your system has UEFI.

  If all these parameters are filled between your system and the card, the graphics card should work, but there is never a guarantee, because each computer system is as an individual, once it's in the hands of a user. You may have already installed another device that is in conflict with this card or perhaps a software which does not get her drivers graphics. So long story short, it is not easier to just buy a better card, you need to do some research.

  I hope this helps clarify the issues for you and if you find it helpful and useful, please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.

  Unfortunately, the GPU is not extensible in these units.  You will need to update the whole motherboard package, which would be costly and cause potential reliability problems in the future.  Your best option would be to upgrade to a laptop more recent with the GPU and the plug, you need.

• Upgrade of RAM HP Pavilion TouchSmart 14-f021nr

  I am considering buying a HP Pavilion TouchSmart 14-f021nr, but I'm unable to find detailed information about its RAM.  All sources I've found say it comes with 4 GB of DDR3 RAM, and the maximum value supported is 8 GB.  What is not clear if a second stick of 4 GB will seek up to 8 GB, or if there is only one slot that is initially taken by the supplied 4 GB, making a single 8 GB stick the only way to upgrade.  In short, is dual-channel a possibility?

  Also, if anyone knows the RAM timings provided RAM, that would be wonderful as well.

  Hello

  Your laptop has 2 slots, each of which can contain a maximum of 4 GB module for a total of 8 GB - an example of an upgrade appropriate can be seen on the following link.

• Pavilion TouchSmart b159sx 15: 16 GB ram upgrade

  Hello

  I have HP Pavilion TouchSmart 15-b159sx Sleekbook and I want to upgrade the RAM 16 GB.

  My hardware specification:
  http://support.HP.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-15-Sleekbook/5330569/model/5378819/document/c0373048...

  1. is it possible with regard to the specification of the material?

  2 change the 16 GB ram will make a noticeable difference?

  Best regards

  Here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  P. 4: supports up to 8 GB of RAM in the following configurations: ● 8192 MB total memory (4096 MB × 2) (no support for 32-bit operating systems)

  So the answer to both your questions is 'no '. However, if you still have the original 6 GB, you will see significant improvement, upgraded to 8 because you will not only get a discount of 25% of the memory, but you will run in mode dual channel which is maybe 10% faster. It's the REF HP for the 4 GB module:

  4 GB 641369-005

  Memory got inexpensive, so it is logical to buy just 2 new modules for you ensure that they are identical and will be run in dual channel:

  Unfortunately access to housing for th ememory module requires the removal of the motherboard. See p. 69 of the manual. Post back if you need help most.

• Pavilion t441.uk, graphic upgrade

  Is it possible to update the graphics on the t441.uk.  You want to play FM 2011 and it is so slow. I've already updated the Ram. But I don't understand how the graphics upgrade works.

  My norton 360 says my computer is the RADEON 9200 128 MB video card, it says I have a secondary school the same as well.

  Hello Rascal, apparently, your system may be a little old to run any recent video games.

  Here a link to the plug on the motherboard, and it shows the system comes with 512 MB of system memory and a maximum of 1 GB of system memory.

  It also has a video feature embedded VIA with 64 MB of video card memory. It has a slot machine video AGP.

  Carpet is it possible to upgrade the video card AGP, but I doubt you'd see much improved performance.

  Just some thoughts.

• Pavilion Touchsmart 23: Pavilion 23 Touchsmart screen dim after sleep Windows 10

  Pavilion Touchsmart 23 all-in-One model f339

  AMD Radeon HD D 8670

  My screen is too dark, after that the computer "wakes up" fashion "sleep" I can read only now my face one inch away. Reboot brings the brightness back to normal, only to happen again the next time that the computer sleeps. This has only started happening since the upgrade of Windows 8 to 10 of Windows.

  -All drivers are up-to-date

  -All Windows updates are up-to-date

  -There is no brightness slider in power options

  -I have no brightness control on my keyboard

  Please help me solve this problem, so I don't have to go back to Windows 8! Thank you in advance.

  I think I might have made some progress with this problem. I had a friend call me and he suffered from these same questions. The partial solution (and probably most) I've discovered is that there is a critical update of the BIOS that had not been done. Because Windows 10 was already installed, it didn't appear on the page to Support HP or HP update software. The way I had the time it was to say the HP website that I had Windows 8.1. The update then appeared. I downloaded the BIOS for its model was last updated and installed. (BTW: it worked great in Windows 10). Once I've upgraded, the dark screen problem has been resolved. However, as long as the screen saver, night light or auto Hibernate still does not work. You can manually put the computer to sleep via a button or the start menu, and he returned very well. His was an AMD based all-in-one and I don't remember not if someone had problems with the Intel based platforms.

  So, to summarize... If you have not installed 10 still make sure you BIOS update first. If you have goto, the Web site and enter your model. Replace the Windows 8.1 operating system. Download and install.

  If anyone has more of an insight, please answer others to take advantage. Good luck and enjoy Windows 10. And if anyone has a solution for the problem of sleep/sleep/screensaver please respond.

• Pavilion Touchsmart 15-b129wm: drivers Bluetooth not updated

  Hello

  It's on my computer laptop bluetooth. Given that I've upgraded to Windows 10 bluetooth driver is not detected by Device Manager and it seems that Mediatek has not updated their software Ralink for Windows (at least for my PC) 10. Windows 10 settings page shows no turning bluetooth power options. I have tried to reset my pc but lost all my apps and also hp Recovery Manager has been lost. I also downloaded Qualcomm-Atheros bluetooth drivers (since I wasn't sure of the hardware version of my PC). Always bluetooth does not work. The idea of reset was given by a representative of hp service in the online chat system. I would be grateful if someone comes up with a good fix tested since I need blutooth to use my bluetooth headset.

  Hello:

  I see your screenshot that your laptop has a wireless Atheros 9485 card.

  This card is a single band with no radio bluetooth wireless card.

• Pavilion TouchSmart 23-f364: Hp Pavilion 23-f364 BIOS "finds it difficult to" hard drive Detection

  I have a HP Pavilion TouchSmart f364 23 for Christmas in 2013 and in 2014, the hard drive has begun to act. I would like to turn on the computer and it does not detect the drive or does not see the files it contains. The CD drive is detected and works all the time. I've updated the BIOS, I replaced the drive with a brand new, and since the old is in an external hard drive enclosure works like new money. The computer will always have problems in windows being blockages, then crashes. I looked for the reasons of the accident and they were due to mistakes of disk access. After reboot, the drive is not detected. In Ubuntu, the drive is detected and accessible (but I can't get the windows partition to mount, with the error "Windows is put in hibernation," even with the quick start off and a full stop). The point is that Ubuntu can see and access the drive to boot from the drive itself (if possible) and a live USB. Ubuntu will crash as or experience access errors, but when restart the BIOS sees not the disc. The disc turn and accesses a little bit, but nothing happens. In addition to the exchange of discs, I also swapped sata ports on the mobo with no luck, and power connectors are different, so no swap it. I want to know now if replace HARD drive cable may solve the problem or if I need to replace the mobo or this computer is just cursed. (Father: when I asked for a desktop I do not mean all in one)

  TL; DR: The Bios does not detect hard drive or detect but once at random, at random, windows crashes because of this, Ubuntu works perfectly well and has access to disk drive and boot Live, bios does not always detect drive. Tried upgrading BIOS, replacement drive and swapping mobo ports sata, no luck, CD player works great every time. You want to know if buying a new HARD drive cable works or if it is the mobo which is bad.

  Also note: when I updated the BIOS it says it resets the CMOS and I repeatedly loaded by default in the BIOS settings. I have found but not yet tried the CMOS clear jumper.

  Hi @Lesking72,

  Welcome to the HP Forums! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

  Thank you for posting. I read your post and I understand that the old hard drive can operate as an external drive, but the new drive and the old disk cannot be detected in the BIOS. You can run hardware diagnostics to test the motherboard and hard drive. If the motherboard and the hard disc as well spent, you can consider if it is a cable problem.

  Here is a document, which you can view:

  For Ubuntu system, please refer to the support of Ubuntu.
