Upgrade processor for a HP Pavilion Media Center m8400f desktop computer

What is the highest AMD processor that I can go to this HP Pavilion Media Center m8400f Desktop System?

The vehicle currently has a Phenom 9500 (A) 2.2 GHz (95W) 2000 MHz HyperTransport 1.0 Socket AM2 +.

Thank you

Processor AMD Phenom Quad 995 @2.6 Ghz

Phenom II probably won't work because it is not in the list of CPUS supported as it has been reported by other members of the forum as not working even if a HP representative said the Member that he should.

    If you have Windows 8, then it has been upgraded. A system file is missing or damaged.

    Without replacing the power supply, the EVGA NVIDIA GT 240 1 GB GDDR5 should work. This card is spec'd for a PSU with 18 amps of bus + 12 volts. This card can stretch your PSU, but give it a try.  I have this card in my system of m9200t.  This card will give the treatment a real helping hand from your video.

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Question: Upgrade of RAM for my HP Pavilion Media Center m7480n

    First of all, I want to say hello to everyone on the HP Forum community and thank everyone for their help and support since his arrival at the Forum.

    I have a HP Pavilion Desktop Media Center m7480n:

    Card upgrade memory:

    Hello

    That your PC has two free memory slots, and you bought ram DDR2 533 MHz 2 GB (1 GB x 2) memory. Compatibility should not be a problem. You have the right type and the amount of RAM in your PC. Once installed, it will take the total of your system's RAM to 4 GB. However, the caveat is that 32-bit operating systems can use only 3.25 GB of the 4 GB installed. This is a limitation of the memory address. Most of the personal computer world continues to use the 32-bit Windows XP/Vista or 7 versions.

    Upgrade from 2 GB to 4 GB would be beneficial for people who are heavy multitasking and running many background applications. In the field of heavy multitasking, the processor (CPU) begins plays a more important role, as an increase in the number of cores (e.g. upgrade of duals to four hearts) will prove beneficial, that simply increase RAM. I think that 2 GB of RAM should be sufficient for basic multitasking averages. Even most PC games benefit much from 2 GB to 4 GB.

    However with the RAM being if pricey as it is these days, it never hurts the Pocket to upgrade. As you have already purchased the RAM, go and plug it by all means, you should see a marginal improvement in performance. You can check this document before you install the memory modules: upgrading memory (RAM)

    Hope this has been helpful.

    See you soon!

    Hi I need help, I plan on upgrading my Ram. My PC came with 2 GB of installed RAM (2 X 1 GB) and there are x 4 banks of memory.

    For optimal compatibility, memory modules should all be the same density (512 MB / 1 GB) and from the same manufacturer... Which assure the chips on the module are identical.  It is strongly recommended that you buy only the modules that are guaranteed compatible. Brands like Kingston, Crucial, OCZ and Corsair come with this guarantee. No name brands may or may not work with your PC. Go on line on the site of manufacturers of memory and know what part number is guaranteed to work with your PC. Corsair Kingston CrucialOCZ

  • HP Pavilion Media Center a1440: HP Pavilion Media Center a1440n Desktop PC ram compatibility upgrade

    Can I replace the ram (1 x pc-4200) original with 4 x1GB 240-pin DDR2 667 (PC2-5300) ECC SDRAM Desktop memory?

    Eastvanray, welcome to the forum.

    This is memory that is supported by the motherboard:

    Four connectors DIMM DDR2 240-pin

    Supports PC2-3200 (400 MHz), PC-4200 (533 MHz) and PC-5300 (667 MHz) DDR DIMM

    HP/Compaq approved maximum memory is 4 GB *.

    Note: * actual available memory may be less

    The memory that you want to install says it is ECC.  I think that the motherboard use more memory non - ECC.  Furthermore, I believe that your OS is 32-bit.  Therefore, only 3.25 GB of memory would be usable.

    What is a 'view of the event. Found a yellow! start and a red x error message. What that means, and all information can be deleted without any problems. You regularly clean this file?

    Looks like you're trolling through the event viewer? If so, these are just connected to the events that occurred on your PC... most if not all are normal and should not be something the average user needs to mess with. For example, the print spooler task often leads to a yellow where the spectator bang when starting, but works fine afterwards.

  • HP pavilion media center a1610n pci slot?

    Hello, I have a hp pavilion media center a1610n I bought 6 years ago and it still works great! However I just bought a new graphics card to update my computer a bit and the card company chart says my computer needs to have a location express pci 2.0
    How can I tell if my computer is compatible with this graphics card and what type of pci slot I have? Help, please!

    Here are the specifications of your HP Pavilion Media Center a1610n desktop and its card mother A8M2N-(NodusM3). According to specifications, your system was introduced on August 4, 2006 and has a slot PCIe x 16 for a graphics card. Based on this information, I guess he has a PCIe v1.1 location. This should be compatible with most cards PCIe v2.0, but will have problems with PCIe v2.1 and latest maps. Another element to consider is the power to your computer. Many, if not more, HP computers of consumers of this era came with 250 watts power supplies and the vast majority of the PCIe x 16 graphics card requires a minimum assessment of 300 watt or greater system.

  • 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:

    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.

  • How to disassemble / disassemble HP Media Center m7160n desktop

    Hi all

    I use a HP Media Center m7160n desktop computer, and recently the hard drive has been acting weird and continually gives me error e/s during startup. I read a lot of posts and tried many solutions until very recently I finally got another message at startup saying something like this: the hard drive error is iminent. Please back up the hard drive and replace it!

    Well, because the system tells me to replace the hard drive I think I should follow. However, when I removed the side cover of the Office Tower, everything is really effect. HP external USB Bay is in the way when I tried to access the hard drive, so I couldn't get out the hard drive to replace it with a new one. To be honest, I really want to delete all other parts in here without a guide, because I'm not very good with the mounting hardware. Therefore, I have to ask and see if anyone have disassemble your m7160n desktop before and could give me a practical guide so I can replace my hard drive?

    Thank you very much.

  • HP Pavilion Media Center m8160 Win7 upgrade?

    Will be my HP Pavilion Media Center m8160, running 32-bit win7, run a 64-bit version of Win8? My flag has an E4400 clocked at 2 Mhz.? I've already upgraded the card wirelessly with a compatible W8.

    Hello:

    The E4400 is a compatible processor 64-bit, your PC can run a 64-bit operating system.

    http://Ark.Intel.com/products/29753/Intel-Core2-Duo-processor-E4400-2m-cache-2_00-GHz-800-MHz-FSB?q=E4400

    Whether or not you will find W8 drivers for other devices in your model, I couldn't say for sure 100% that of course it will run W8 very well.

    A note... a 64-bit operating system uses more memory and disk space to run that operating system 32-bit, if you have less than 4 GB of memory in your PC, I would install more memory or install a 32-bit operating system.
