units HP Pavilion media center M853: uefi m8530f m2n78 - la

The M8530F MB does support UEFI?  The MB is the m2n78 - la.  I bought the Seagate HDD 64 MB SATA 3TO. I understand that my MB supports up to 2.2 TB of disk space.  I don't know, what it supports UEFI? If she is not compatible UEFI, is it possible to partition the remaining .8TB so that I can use the full space of the drive? BTW, I use the drive as boot drive. Finally, my original drive crashed after years of operation (about 6-7 years).

Have a look HERE for method of Seagate to use the full 3To.  I seriously doubt that the BIOS supports the GPT or UEFI which is what is needed to use the 3 TB without special considerations for the startup disks.  None of the specs mention either of these things, so they probably where not to use both the motherboard has been produced.   After reading the Seagate links, it's still usable with the current configuration. However.

  • HP Pavilion Media Center a1610n problem

    So I had this problem which started today.

    When I booted my PC: HP Pavilion Media Center a1610n - it goes to the startup screen with the HP logo but it remains just there frozen.

    Another thing I have noticed is my mouse and keyboard are not powered at all even though they are correctly connected to their respective ports.

    I don't know why he acts up like this now. I tried to connect the mouse to another PC and it worked, so there must be something wrong with the HP Pavilion itself.

    Wouldn't be the motherboard or some circuit?

    Other things to note that I got this PC reformatted all for more than a year with an installation of XP (as he came originally with XP).

    Restarted the PC and still has the same issues. CD Player opens, the PC itself is powered and the screen is frozen on the blue screen HP startup. (Shows the menu and controls everything, but can not yet exploited cause there is not going to the keyboard.)

    It is possible that a RAM module is either lost contact with the slot, or is defective. Can help with reintegration.

    (1) note what slots are occupied. Remove all the RAM of motherboard. Here's the tech manual. Put 1 module in the slot located near the CPU. According to the chassis, it could have a radiator/fan together.

    (2) unit to retest. Repeat with additional modules.

    (3) any module that tests OK can be reinstalled in appropriate accommodation.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    Hi, Henrik:

    Specifications of your PC seem to meet all of the hardware requirements to be able to fully run W7.

    P D 915 processor is capable of 64-bit.

    ( (4M-Cache-2_80-GHz-800-MHz-FSB http://ark.intel.com/products/27515/Intel-Pentium-D-Processor-915-)

    I recommend you max on your memory to 4 GB as a 64-bit operating system requires more memory to run a 32 bit OS.

    A 32 bit OS will perform better on a PC that is running less than 4 GB of memory, unless you need a 64-bit system to run 64-bit programs.

    I would also start the W7 Upgrade Advisor to confirm what I posted.

    I have a Hp Pavilion Media Center Edition 2002 running. How will I know if I have all the patches and updates, I need? Also is free upgrade to the edition of 2005?

    Hi Philofduluth and thanks for posting.

    There is not a free upgrade for Media Center 2005. If this is something you would like to do, I contact your OEM manufacturer and ask if there is a software upgrade, they can provide you.

    If you have all the updates that are available for your system go to http://update.microsoft.com . Here, you can see all the latest reviews and optional updates that may be available to you and make install.

    I hope this helps. Let us know if you have any questions.

  • 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!

    Hello:

    The only suggestion I can offer is to try to install manually as follows smbus controller driver...

    It shouldn't matter whether or not add it on the video card is installed.

    Download and unzip this chipset driver file.

    Go to Device Manager and click the controller smbus needing drivers.

    Click the driver tab.  Click on set to update driver.  Select her browse my computer for driver software, and then navigate to the driver folder, that you unzipped.
