  @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.

• After some time, my screen goes black have to re boot. It is only on I pc the other pc on the same monitor works okay my video card is on the card mother all ansawers would help t / you rkfjr

  Assuming that the integrated graphics controller is OK, try the following:

  Launch a command (as a Runas administrator) window and enter the following commands in it:

  powercfg-h off

  powercfg/change-standby-timeout-ac 1440

  The first command turns off "Feature of putting into hibernation"

  The second command replaces the timeout stansby 24 hours when the system is connected to AC power.

  (The number is in minutes).

  Good luck.

• I have a hp pavilion slimline s5220y, can I add another video card to run an additional monitor?

  HP Pavilion Slimline, s5220y

  No changes have been made to PC

  I need to add a video card to run an additional monitor, I would like to know if anyone has managed to do this, and if so, could they maybe give me the information I need to order a correct map. I was recommended to use

  Article # G4588410 of Tiger Direct. I read where I remove the modem in order to accomolish?

  The EVGA UV19 seems to be a viable solution if the current integrated graphics adapter is suitable for your use.

• Update video card for Dell XPS 8300

  I'm looking for suggestions for a video card to replace the original NVIDIA GT420 DDR3 1 GB video card in my XPS 8300 running with Windows 7 64 bit.  The PSU is rated at 460 W (+ 12VA-18 a; + 12VB 16 A; + 12VC 8A; + 5V 25A; + 5V to the 2 0a; 3.3V 17A; and - 12V 0-3).  I would avoid upgrading the power supply if possible.

  The original of the NVIDIA card is a PCI Express x 16 slot.  I don't know if it's PCI Express x 16 or PCI Express 2.0 x 16.  Someone knows for a desktop XPS 8300 bought July 2011.

  Thank you.

  It is difficult to determine how quiet a card can be if you look on the comments of the people who bought the specific card you want, or you happen to find a professional opinion on this.   I find most of the double slot cards or cards with the biggest fans to shut up, so I don't think you need worry too much noise.   I have a Sapphire HD 6870 and it's very quiet.  I don't know the HD 7750 is fine for your application and games even if it will happen later.  With the game, you kind of match the video card with the monitor you own and resolution capabilities.  If you have a high screen resolution of 1920 x 1080 or more and you want to set this resolution, then you want a better video card.  After rebate, it may be that a difference of $20 between the 7750 HD and HD 7770 so keep that in mind also.

• LR shows strange pictures after updating video card.

• 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.

  Thanks for the quick response. My computer is...   HP Pavilion p6654y desktop PC.

  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.
