• Pavilion Elite M9040N turns on or turns off continues

  I have a Pavilion Elite M9040N media center desktop computer and it began to turn and turns off constantly.  The fans, the DVD player and the power that all light turns on for about 3-4 seconds then it turns off for 3-4 seconds, then starts the cycle again.  Does not get the bios start and nothing appears on the monitor.  I changed the power supply hoping that was the problem but no luck.

  Anyone encountered this before?

  Anyone know what is happening?

  Thank you

  Final update

  Thus, the slot and off tension of the issue was due to a fault on the motherboard.  In order to get what they functional system once again I have had to replace the motherboard and video card (I don't know why, but this card is not as well).  I also replaced both of the hard drives, upgrade to the C: 1.5 TB drive and a D: 2 TB drive and power.  I bought a new copy of windows 7 64 bit and did a new install and updated all the drivers.  I was able to transfer all of our data, photos, music, etc. among the old readers on the nine with an external SATA cable.

  I'm happy to be up and running again but in hindsight, I have pretty much rebuilt all of the computer.  I hope that this will last a few years.

  Thanks for all your help and suggestings

  Hello

  I have a HP pavilion elite m9500y.

  Here is the link for the specification.

  I want to update my pc because it became so slow these days.

  Please give me your suggestions for the upgrade, such as the change of memory cards or a graphics card, etc.

  Thank you

  Hello

  It is a machine for 8 years. Please note, new technology can come out every weeks or even days. You must update the motherboard, CPU, RAM, power supply, disk HARD and a few others and you won't get not the speed of the new machine to.

  I would give the option a miss and buy a new machine.

  Kind regards.

• Pavilion Elite M9300T: upgrade geforce 9500gs

  I have a Pavilion Elite M9300T KZ854AV #ABA with CPU Q9300, 3 G of RAM and 750 GB 7200 RPM / MIN SATA 3 GB/S HD.  I want to improve the memory, the operating system & video card.  The current map graphic is a NVIDIA Geforce 9500 GS - 512 MB.  I don't do a lot of game but with Cyberlink Power Director 12 video editting.  Extremely slow rendering video during editing.  Is there a map 'step-up', I can go to without having to upgrade the POWER PC block?  Looking for some recommendations on the new cards.  Currently have Vista Edition Home Premium - 32-bit but want to upgrade to W7 Pro - 64-bit as part of the upgrade process.

  You are welcome.  Thank you for the additional information.

  The reason why I give you a recommendation of the video card is for the reasons I said.  Most of them won't be better than what you have, and it is difficult to find a retail map that will work with your power supply 350W. However, I talked to Technical Support EVGA (1-888-880-3842).  He said that the cards that are compatible with your motherboard 2008 are limited.  He recommends is an EVGA GT 640.  I recommend you call their Tech Support to ensure it will work with your motherboard and BIOS.

• Upgrade HP Pavilion Elite m9040n PC (GN553AA) second hard disk (e :))

  The only upgrade to the office, is that it is now running Windows 8 32-bit Pro. The second disc (E is the original disk of 320 GB.) What is the most big hard disk (in GB or TB) can I put in to replace the secondary hard drive (E?)  The BIOS is running with the delivered version.

  Hey HPbinary,

  Most SATA drives should work in the system, so, basically, any capacity will be fine.

• HP Pavilion Elite M9047C: Upgrade graphics card

  I put upgraded my computer to windows 7 64-bit home premium.  I have just a nvidia geforce gt 610 that does not play well with the computer as it is.   disk failures and crashing.

  I change to power 500 w of power.  put a 250g SSD and a secondary hard drive of 1 terabyte.  I have contributed to a maximum of the ram with 8g.

  Can anyone recommend a card that works better than what I have now?

  Thank you

  You would be better served by the following: 1) 600W PSU Corsair and 660) 2 of the card EVGA GTX.

  Your GS 8400 original is in the margins of the GT 610.  Not really an upgrade.  Although the GTX 660 declares a min of 450W, your drives additional all add up to the load.  Collectively 'we' usually recommend air power.  This allows the new PSU to run time 1) better and 2) more effectively.

  Now on this OS, good choice.  You will have until 2020, before there is no support.   You will have until the 29/07/2016to upgrade to WIN10, if you want, for free.  I would upgrade the new SSD for WIN 7.  Then clone it on the original HD.  This way you will have WIN 7 on the original hard drive, the system security.

• HP Pavilion Elite m9040n Desktop and Fire Wire 1394

  I have the above mentioned Office. It has a plugin from 1394 to the front of the case. The Pavilion comes with all the software to pull wire work? I backed up my hard drive on a Toshiba external drive with a USB cable, the other day and it took 6 hours. Is not fire wire suppost to transfer data faster than a USB cable? Are there special things I need to know when buying FireWire 1394.

  I was looking on the internet the other day and they showed the son of fire with pins 4 and 6. Looking into the hole on my computer, it only looks like 3 terminals?

  Thank you

  Rick, welcome to the forum.

  There is no necessary software for Firewire (IEEE 1394-a).  The driver is installed with the operating system.

  Here is the page of the following motherboard for the computer.  It only shows that there is a Firewire (IEEE 1394) (# 11) port in return IO ports.

  Here is an article that shows the comparison of speed vs. Firewire USB.  FireWire was developed by Apple.

  I hope this information answers your questions.

• HP Pavilion Elite m9040n Desktop PC card mother Layout

  I have a desktop HP m9040n and was tinkering autour inside. Long story short, I don't remember where the 2 hard drives and the cd player plug on the motherboard. All 3 are sata and can't seem to understand what command and ports as sata cables plug in. If someone could help me out here, it would be greatly appreciated.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01077641

  Hello Bostel, when you look at the motherboard in the case, the lower right corner is where the Sata ports.

  The port0 is on the right of the Sata ports closer to the top of the Board of Directors. This is the port where the hard drive0 or hard drive must be connected to.

  The port in front is where I connect the second hard drive and the port under the port1 is where to connect the DVD player.

  It was suggested that the Sata port0 is the boot hard drive port, but I connected the hard disks and DVD drives at all of these ports at one time or another and found no difference in the performance of the system.

  This could make a slight difference if you have the hard drive configured in a Raid array.

• HP Pavilion Elite e9120f upgrade of capabilities?

  Hi all!

  Yes, I'm known here but I don't want to dwell on it.

  I bought this computer in the past 6 months and have had virtually no problems with him.

  Except one: graphics card of the

  Its terrible. Period. Don't try to justify it, using this card in a computer is one of the worst decisions on the planet and that he should be flogged.

  Ranting aside, I want to update the graphics card. Subsequently, this would require an upgrade of the power supply as well.

  So what card should I go to?

  I need suggestions, but the ones I am looking have eaten are as follows:

  GeForce GTS 250

  GeForce 9800 GT

  GeForce 9800 GTX +.

  Radon ATI HD 4850

  I hope that the GTS 250 is compatible but in doing my research, I can not find any instance of anyone who upgraded to their e9120f to one of these cards.

  So, I also ask... It is even possible to update the graphics on this PC?

  I need an upgrade. I won't be able to afford a new rig for 3-6 years so... upgrding this is all I've got.

  And if offer you a graphics card for me, please understand that my budget (power supply included) is about $ 250 (all the cards mentioned are in this price range, power supply included).

  The bad news is that your PC has only a 300 Watt power supply. e9120f specifications  The good news is that you can upgrade from the power supply and install a new video card and stay within your budget.

  Review the specifications of performance ATI and NVIDIA . Look at the specifications of strip memory bandwidth and level of DirectX support.

  How to replace a power supply.

  How to replace a video card.

  www.Newegg.com has everything you need.  Choose a modular power of 550 to 600 watts.  The new ATI 5750 is a very good low power graphics card and it supports DirectX 11.

• What cases does the HP Pavilion Elite m9040n use?

  I want to put new parts inside, because it is quite old. I want to know if all the pieces of my will enter into it. I looked around, the only thing I could find on it is that it is a medium-sized ATX. You are looking for an exact name please!

  Yareen, welcome to the forum.

  It takes a Micro-ATX motherboard (Micro-ATX-24, 4 cm (9.6 inches) x 24.4 cm (9.6 in).  The key is to ensure that the spacers for the motherboard in the case match the holes in the motherboard.  This may be a problem with new motherboards and old cases.

  Well, to tell you the truth, if you don't want to buy a new computer, I would buy a new case for less than $100 and a motherboard to match.  It would be much easier.  Of course, you can always buy a new HP desktop computer.

• power cable 4-pin internal for a HP Pavilion Elite m9040n

  I just installed a USB 3.0 card which needs a 4 connector pins for power. There are several connectors which are white and numbered P1, P2, P3, etc. and so forth. From what I can tell, they resemble power wires to the other devices on the computer (DVD. There is a double connector coming out of them to be used for the power supply to the USB card. I think correctly? There is a power cord two USB2 plugins on the front of the computer who probably will not be used anymore. Can I steal power of this connector? Thank you

  If you had mentioned the map accurate usb 3.0 (by name), a definitive answer would have been returned. Connectors 4 pin would be a four pin peripheral or the old floppy power plug. Here is a page that describes them.
