problems upgrading the GPU from nvidia 660 m at the start, 980 m-8 beep error code

Alienware m17x R4

Intel i7-3740QM CPU @2. 70 GHz (overclocked 3.49 GHz)

32 GB memory corsair vengeance 4x8Go

run GPU Nvidia Geforce GTX 660 m

Ive been upgraded my laptop and updated my ram and hard drives, and bought a Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 m update kit. I know not how to change video and easily installed maps (grounding prevent me electrostatic and protect the card). passed to the map intel before the upgrade and after the first device manager start that he read as standard VGA adapter and its status is that it wouldn't start. I updated my bios and updated the driver for the pilot to 980 m from nvidia and changed the graphics card to the new by using the fn + f7 command and rebooted my computer.

at the start he gave me a blank screen and the 8 beep error code. He looked up and I think it's a faulty card or bad memory on the card. contacted eurocom support and they think that there's a way to get it to work but I'm not so sure. It's the weekend, so they don't come back to me until Monday. someone at - it experience with this or know what I can do now? I am currently back on my card to 660 m.

Everything you did before but not FN + F7 at the end. However, I'd install drivers Nvidia from Dell this time. The last Dell has is either 347.52 (WHQL-quality; you can get this driver from the Alienware support page 13/15/17 R2 on the Dell support site) or 350,12 (beta for Dell). There are also 347.90, but it is quite difficult to find a complete driver for this driver.

When you uninstall the drivers of the GPU, use DDU. It's just a more sure way to uninstall the drivers.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    This problem may be due to a corrupt or damaged files in the system partition or boot record that are required for Windows 8.1 start successfully. You may need to run the automatic repair of Windows 8.1.

    However, I would recommend at this point, contact the manufacturer of the Tablet for the best support possible, since you use dualboot.

    Please respond to this topic, after you talk with the manufacturer so that we can continue to research the issue and help you accordingly.

    Do not hesitate to write to us in case you have any problems/concerns while working on your computer, we will be happy to help you.

  • Problem upgrading the h8-1409 HP Envy video card problem

    Hello.

    I just bought this machine and it has a good processor and ram good, but it comes with a card missing video (HD7570).  I want to upgrade the video card at one of the best maps I have of my old machines (Gigabyte GTX 660 ti and an Evga GTS 250).  When I install one of these cards but, I get no video output.  I can hear the initialization of the system and the hard drive works, so everything seems fine here.

    This machine comes with a 460W power supply, which should be enough to run one of these cards, but no go.  In order to exclude food, I tried on a secondary market, OCZ 600W PSU, but got the same result.  Two cards work in my old machine, so I know that the cards are good.

    The specifications of the main Board are here:

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?objectID=c03132942

    As far as I know, it should work.  Is there something I'm missing?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    Only use one video card in your PC and make sure that it is installed in the PCI-E x 16 slot.

    Boot in the bios (ESC and F10) and go to security topics. Try each of the topics and search a secure Boot Configuration.  If it exists, then see if Secure Boot is disabled.  A poster said that secure boot disabling enabled the installed video card. I have not tried this on a HP active UEFI motherboard but I know that it isn't a problem with another mother UEFI card that I use.  Your mileage may vary.

  • Problems of 755M GT from Nvidia Lenovo Y410p Please help.

    I just got the laptop 3 days ago and whenever I try to run a game on the laptop that uses the 755 m it will cause often the driver to plant especially when the power supply is on and when it is not plugged into the game will work, but at a very low framerate.

    The games I tried are CS: go, Team Fortress 2 and World of Warcraft.

    All of these game will work very well when the power is not connected but when I plug the power I'll get glitched graphics and drivers crashing shortly after sometimes it's just bluescreens me, I desperately need help.

    NVIDIA driver version 331.82

    Image of graphical glitch

    Also whenever I connect or disconnect the AC adapter the screen go black for a second or two and then return

    I got Lenovo to replace the Y410p and realized that the problem was the nvidia driver. I updated the driver on the new and saw that the card was insensitive and quickly he downgraded to the default driver. Update the driver for the last is a problem with the card which can damage permenantly map which was what happened to the previous laptop

    Keep the Nvidia driver for the entire plant: v327.62 until I know newer drivers are safe to use.

  • Satellite U400 - 10L: problem with the start-up & reboot

    Hello

    Well I don't like much about the touchpad overheating but I have a problem. When I restart this mobo instead of activate after a reboot it stays black without any reaction only lower diods, dvd - rom and the display flashes (can't hear fan or hard drive).

    If I press the power button / stop all the icons of diod (ac, pwr, hdd bat) shine up just for a second and new (can't hear the fan hard drive or cpu) computer does not turn on. All this happened only when AC cable is connected to the power if I use just notebook power source battery boots and restart without problems.

    If I remove battery completely from the laptop, once more, I get the same symptoms (cannot start). And the saddest part of this story is the fact that I got brand new Toshiba U400 10 L to the seller and got a new.
    It has the exact same problem.
    As you all probably understand im crazy because in the last two days, I tried really everything, including the BIOS without flashing and the success.

    Well im not sure whats going on, but this could be the problem with the battery or a bad contact?
    Any ideas?
    I would return it back?

    Thanks much for the reply

    Hello

    The behavior of your laptop is really strange and I suppose it might be bound only to a hardware problem.

    A friend of mine couldn't t start the laptop connected to the AC adapter the power adapter is faulty. It was only possible to start Notepad using the battery, and only if the battery was not completely empty.

    I put t know if your AC adapter failures but the authorized service provider should definitely check out the laptop and accessory for laptop (AC adapter).

    Then call the ASP in your country and ask the technicians for later handling.
