Update video card cancel my current warranty?

Help please. .

Laughing out loud

It violates the warranty unless you install PC card damage.  Which would be determined on inspection of the desktop PC will receive if it is sent in-warranty service.

If you go back to your office for warranty work, note that must return the PC to its original state.

Any upgrade of the desktop is a risk you assume.

    @johnh48, welcome to the forum.

    The most recent video cards require UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard/Legacy BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI to mie-October 2012.  The BIOS may not be upgraded in the UEFI.  The last cards only not for UEFI are the GTX 660/670.

    Here is a video card that will give you what you need.  However, it will take a power supply (PSU) upgrade, too.  I love Corsair products.  I propose a modular power supply at least 500W.  Almost any card that meets your needs will require an upgrade of the power supply.

  • Best video card for my current system update.

    My current system is Compaq CQ5210Y.  I use Windows 7 Home Premium. I was wondering if someone could give me the best advice on what I need to update my current graphics card. The current card is a Nvidia Geforce 6150SE Nforce 430 chipset onboard. I am wanting to install a better graphics card for a game if possible. The less money spent better, but I'm not here on any upgrades and price I could be informed. I currently have a 250 watt so food. The motherboard is a Pegatron M2n68 - LA or he is named after Hp/Compaq: Narra6 GL6. I appreciate everything you could give advice and thank you in advance!

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01861133

    You certainly have a Narra5 motherboard and now it seems that the HP Web site reflects that. Most of the HP quality consumer computers automatically detects the discreet graphics card in the PCI x 16 slot and disable the integrated graphics card that are on board. That is, if you plug a PCI x 16 slot... graphics card you no longer able to use the ports of the integrated graphics card. Finally, please check that the Sapphire HD 6850 will not be too long.

    Good luck

  • custom update video card in Windows vista

    Well here is my problem, I recently started to play games on my PC but every time I try to launch a game, I'm down market square of steam, it tells me to update my video card driver and redirects me to this site http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect. After I scan my computer for updates I navigate through my products and my graphics driver it tellls me this

    A Intel® G33/G31driver current installed Build 7.15.10.1608 detected product

    A custom computer manufacturer driver is installed on your computer. The Intel Driver Update utility is not able to update the driver. Install a generic Intel driver instead of the driver from the computer manufacturer custom can cause technical problems. Contact yourcomputer manufacturer for the latest driver for your computer.

    So, how do I change that?

    Johnny, welcome to the forum.

    When a help request, you must always include the brand / model of the computer or the monitor. This information is necessary for us to review the specifications for them.

    HP has its video designed especially for them cards run with other OEM components.  Therefore, the driver is custom.  That's why the Intel driver will not work.

    If you want to play games on the computer, I suggest upgrading to a discrete video card.  This will eliminate the need for video to share system memory.  You will see an increase in the performance of the system and games will work much better.

  • Satellite A100 - update video card

    Hello. Sorry for my English, I'm studying this language byself.
    I ask my request seriously. I studied for a long time patterns and the possibilities of the computer.
    Support the GeForce Go 7600 512 MB of video memory is officially declared, I found necessary modules of memory and replaced on the video card. I checked all currents and voltages.

    Operationally, the laptop works, but defines 256 MB memory of 512 possible. If I understand this restriction is set in the BIOS or VideoBIOS.

    Please, quick like me to solve this problem, any special version can eat BIOS for the increase in video memory.

    Problem is that Toshiba doesn't support these updates and doesn't offer any update of the BIOS that will help you with this.
    If a person make the decision to do this update is on own risk.

    You can be happy that everything runs smoothly and that there is no problem some serious with him.

  • Pavilion 6654: 6654 update video card/power HP

    I'm interested in upgrading my video card for an ATI Radeon HD 4200 to a course "EVGA GeForce GTX 960 SuperSC ACX 2.0 + 2 GB memory GDDR5 128 bit PCI-E 3.0 Dual-Link DVI - I, 3 x DP, SLI, HDMI and HDCP, G-SYNC ready graphics 02G - P4 - 2966 - KR.  This graphics card will suit for my cpu and will work properly with the motherboard?

    I'll add 4additional giggabites to increase the total memory (RAM) to 8 GB so connected.

    And besides, I will buy a 400W power supply.

    Will this work for my current 6654 Pavilion?

    Thank you!

    You are welcome!  Thank you for the additional information.

    As I suspected, your computer has a standard BIOS.  This means that you can buy an older video card.  I love EVGA products.  I suggest to find a card you like and contact Tech Support from the manufacturer (Technical Support EVGA 1-888-880-3842) in order to ensure that it will work on your computer.  It is the best way I found to do not have to make a return.  The last card done EVGA used a standard BIOS was their 640 GT.  Some of them have a update for the VBIOS that allows them to run with a standard BIOS.

    Now for the power supply (PSU).  I love Corsair products.  I normally recommend at least 500W.  This allows for future updates.  A modular power supply is good for smaller cases.  Simply use the required cables, allowing a better air circulation.  You must measure the existing PSU and compare the measurements to the one you choose.  All connectors must be compatible.

    Warhound, welcome to the forum.

    The first thing you have to do is to upgrade the power supply (PSU).  The current PSU is only 250W.  Most recent most of mid-level video cards requires a minimum of 400 w to work properly.  I love Corsair products.  I normally recommend at least 500W.

    Here are the system requirements for Battlefield 3.  (GTX 560 and AMD 6950) recommended graphics cards require 500W to work properly.

  • Update video card for m9690a.

    I really want to update my current video card which is a nividia Geforce GT 130 on a m9690a MBO in my HP Pavilion.

    I'm pretty interested in either a NVIDIA GTX470 1280 MB Gigabyte PCIe video card or a ATI 5870 1 GB Gigabyte PCIe video Cardinal

    I intend to power level to meet the highest a 800w at the same time.

    Will says cards actually run on my system without drama or would I need to change anything else to compensate? RAM, space. MBO, etc..

    I thank in advance for any help or suggestions you can provide.

    -Steve

    Steve,

    800 watt POWER supply is excessive.  The Corsair HX 650 remained with 52 amps on 12V + rail.  Stay with NVIDIA cards because they are usually shorter than the ATI counterparts.  470 to 9.5 inches is a tight fit. Another poster did get the 470 to work.  The 470 is a high-end card, so it probably does not work at full capacity with your PC. It will be plenty fast however.  I use the NVIDIA GTX 460 w/256 bit memory interface. It is 8.5 "length.

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

  • Update video card for m8430f

    I currently have a Geoforce 8500GT. Is there a better update available. I have 300 w power, windows 7 64 bit, 8 MB of ram ddr2 and single slot pci express.

    This NVIDIA GT 240 should work or this model GT 240 1 GB DDR5.

    Unplug your computer and open it. Read the label on the power supply unit (PSU).  What is the total power and amperage on the bus + 12 volt?  The amount of amperage + 12 volts is important when choosing a video card.

    I use the card above in one of my PC (m9200t) who has the same motherboard as your PC.  Check the amperage on the bus + 12 volts.

  • Update video card for Optiplex 980

    Hello-

    I need to update my video card.  I recently started to do video and photo editing, and I think that my video card is one of my bottlenecks.  Other features of the system: Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, 16 GB RAM, Core i7 2.8 GHz,

    I currently have a Synergy Edition PCI Express Zotac GeForce GT 430 2 GB card.  It is installed in the blue slot (if it matters).

    I want to get the best map as I can for this computer.  While the money is still a problem, I really need to increase the length of time that the system needed to make the video and create previews for a catalog of Adobe Lightroom 125 000 images.   I have 3 questions:

    1. I'm not sure I understand... the PCI Express 2.0 v 3.0 and the x 4, x 16, specifications.  I am concerned to do the wrong type of card.

    2. I'm afraid that I don't have enough power for a more powerful card.  The current power supply has a maximum 305 w output power.

    3. it seems that there may be a limitation of physical size on the length of the card because of the cpu heatsink.  My optiplex, is that if large size with the CD/dvd installed horizontally on top of the case and 4 ports usb in the front.  (I have attached a file to the post with a picture of the possible interference)

    Serial number is: 4JWKJM1

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions

    Todd

    Because you have a tower with 305 w power that a card Geforce 750 TI with simple fan alias cannot exceed 8 inches works very well.

  • Update video card: 630i Desktop - need advice

    I have a Dell XPS 630i Desktop 5 1/2 year, which usually is going very well, with enough power for most of the cases.  Recently implemented a 125 GB SSD as drive operating system.

    Anyway, in these last days, we got some random video artifacts appears sporadically on one or two of my two monitors Viewsonic (DVI for both of the Nvidia 9800GT 512 MB video card).  A small section of the screen will have the weird characters, sometimes a bunch of screen Flash, etc.  And a few times that there was a BSOD crash, with the video driver (nvlddmkm.sys) be responsible.

    I tell myself that there must be a bad video card or driver.  I have updated to the pilot the most recent on the Dell site (R213185, 181.30, Vista 64, A04) and well.  But I have this vague feeling that it is a hardware problem.  If it was a driver problem, why now after all these years, he suddenly would be problems, no recent changes to the system, etc..

    I used the tools of diagnosis from Dell, which has tested the performance of the video card, memory, etc, and no errors were detected, which is encouraging.

    I post here, to seek advice, in which case the video card end up being the problem and need to be replaced.

    1. If I decide to replace it, what are some good recommendations for a new map of video for this system (Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.40 GHz, 6 GB of RAM).  I don't want exaggerated and pay for potential performance of video card I would not be obtained with the old motherboard, CPU, RAM, etc.

    2. the current system is sufficient for most cases, with the main shortcoming being the slow performance when you are working on my of Canon DSLR Raw files in Adobe Camera Raw and Photoshop, watch a HD video from camcorders or other sources, etc.  In this regard, replace the video card would provide a substantial improvement in this type of performance?

    3. I'd rather than replace the entire office by something more recent?

    All thought, popular point of view.

    Don

    Video card drivers can become corrupt and simply uninstall them and their update with a new driver may solve the problem.  It is more likely a hardware problem, a driver problem, even if the 9800 GT is an old map.  If he wasn't pushed hard with the game over the years, then it can last a long time. XPS 630i is a good system and with the Q6600 it is still worthy and can perform very well.  If you were to replace the video card, I'd just get something simple like the GTX 650 HERE, which would exceed the performance of the 9800 GT and not market much.

  • Laptop HP 15-AC639NG: update video card

    Hello, I would like to upgrade the video card in my laptop, but I'm not familiar with laptops. How can I find what graphics cards are compatible with my motherboard? It is worth making the upgrade or is it risky? Currently I have a R5 AMD graphics card. What other advice you have for me? Thank you in advance.

    This is a very common question and who do not earn a lot of goodwill, but the truth is there is no way to upgrade your video. Laptops have custom designed mothers and many maps that you can insert into a desktop computer are installed in a laptop by the presence of soldered chips flat on the motherboard. I want to say have you ever seen a desktop video card? How could you possibly put something like in a laptop? Some special very, very made up of games and laptops of engineering have a slot to put a flat blg video card in but no laptop of HP consumer doesn't have such a slot. Laptops that have this ability are more than $2,000 and even then the cards are not freely interchangeable as a desktop computer. So, the simple answer to your question is that you can not do. I'm sorry.

    Hello:

    There is no graphics removable/replaceable/extendable 'cards' in your noteobook.

    (GPU) graphics cards, are chips that are welded and their circuit integrated on the motherboard.

    The only way to update the graph on your laptop would be to replace the motherboard.

    But as the graphical installation program has your laptop is the best that HP offered for this model, there is no motherboards available with better graphics.

  • HP Phoenix H9 - 1150T: NO video on an updated video card

    Installation of a 370 R7 graphics card. I can adapt to and connect the power cable (500 watts). The computer starts with NO VIDEO at all. He seeks drivers and restart still no video. I watched this and it could be a bios problem. Checked relevant forum and site of video card without a son.   My motherboard has an older bios with no. UEFI. Is it possible to update the bios to UEFI support. Not searched high and low on HP sites, no chance. Megatends US to wonder about the mobo maker will mobo so see if they have an update. BTW this is for both systems are identical, they both have the same problem. Trying to avoid a call to technical support on my dime. If all else fails I will update a good not expensive mobo and re-use of ram and cpu.

    Thank you any help is welcome.

    . UPDATE * with several systems on hand. I realized the 370 R7 is NOT compatible with the system board. I put the R7 370 4 GB in an older HP (HPE580) and it worked. Then put the card of the HPE 580 in PHOENIX (h9 - 1150t) and it worked. It was an R9 270 2 GB. SO a R9 270 WORK of WILL and a R7 370 4 GB 2 GB won't WORK. Need a bios upgrade same MSI tech support said it was common on this model (h9 - 1150t) Phoenix. Thanks for the help!
