Upgrading power SUPPLY Compaq Presario SR1403WM block

I know this is an old computer and everything, but I'm always wanting to do some updates for her because I'm not getting rid of it for a while.

So I was wondering what would be a compatible power supply for this computer. I'm looking for at least a 350 watts so that I could run easily 3 hard drives, a dvd burner and a Radeon X 1300 XT.

If you know if this card will work with the 250 that is in this computer with my other updates please tell so I don't have to worry about this.

Since the computers original specifications I already changed to 3 320 WD HDD, 2 GB of RAM and an ATI Radeon 9550, while also removing the modem 56 k the 9 in 1 card reader and the original hard drive, CD burner and stick of RAM.

The 9550 is just a little weak for me and the x 1300 will be able to hit the sweet spot. That is why I wonder about upgrading the PSU or the card will work with the current.

Anyway thanks for the help in advance.

Ok. Good ATX PSU brand will do. (Corsair / OCZ / Fortron / shut up!) Your motherboard uses an ATX PSU specification. With what you already have in your system, you should get a decent at least 450 Watts and ATX12V 2.2 EPS12V, modular, 80 more specs. Care like these will allow you to use it in a motherboard upgrade when you are ready

    Your laptop has two DIMM slots. The maximum amount of memory, others have upgraded to 4 GB is. The maximum recommended by HP is 2 GB. The memory of replacement should be PC2-5300 667 Mhz, 1.8V

    Here is a link to the memory at Crucial.com.  Only use the modules of replacement by major memory creators who produce guaranteed compatible memory modules to avoid the risk of buying incompatible modules.

  • Upgrading power supply on a HP Compaq Business Desktop

    So I bought a power supply 500W on newegg a few days previously, under the assumption that all the power supplies have a standard structure. (wrong - o)

    My machine: HP Compaq Business Desktop DC7900 - NV487UT

    The new power supply is too small for the previous anchor for the power supply box. I can't even the two screw holes that align the two. That's pretty pathetic.

    Anyone know where I could find a compatible PSU that puts at least a 450W max? (for a new video card). I did some research and found nothing. Thought it was time to turn to the forums of HP.

    Well, there is always the possibility to buy directly from HP.  Of course, for a student who is a bit more expensive.  The next thing you might try is to walk in a bestbuy and asking them if they have anything in this size.  If it's not that they could tell you where to find a.  Try a store like tigerdirect, normally, they have a bunch of stuff at random and may have a small power supply in stock.

  • Upgrading power supply

    I recently bought a new video card and when I installed it, I got nothing but a screen empty. I was told that I may need to upgrade from my diet. I have a Compaq presario 6000 model 6ZPXE2 and it has a 220 watt power supply inside. I don't know what my card needs power is a NVida GForce 512 MB AGP and I was wondering if I can upgrade and what information and precautions I need to know. Is it possible to upgrade up to 300. 350 or 400 watts?

    Hello spunnie, I checked the specifications of your video Nvidia GeFrorce 512 MB AGP 6600GT card.

    It shows that it takes a 300W power supply minimum system for this video card.

    This lack of power supply of power can indeed be the reason that the system shows no video, but it could also be that the card itself could be faulty. I bought many items off of eBay that have delivered to me and prove to be defective.

    To be honest, I also received many items in good condition as shown.

    I would say at least a power of 400 watts, many being somewhat underated power supplys.

    You can search for a power supply with the 400 watt or capacity so that physically gets in your case.

    You may need to cut the existing power, at least enough to get some measures in this regard, without disconnecting the cables if you can.

    With all these devices installed on your system, now I'm really surprised, that it would not even start with the current power of 220 watts. You are just as, or even above the maximum of the existing 220 watt PSU.

    I hope this helps.

  • Upgrade power supply s5510f Pavilion

    I was wondering if there are any available for the Pavilion s5510f POWER supply upgrade.  He is currently leading an installed OEM 220 watt and I was looking to go to a 300 or 350 watts, if it does not fit in the case.  I know Compaq with he exact same narrated 5/6GL Board I have uses a 300 Watt.  I need to upgrade my graphics, like the nvidia 6150se just isn't cutting it.  I know that I can not any expansion on the power supply and 350 may be pushing; as I gave about tech HP apoplexy when I told him I wanted to switch the MOBO to a new case and go the one block of 450 Watt power SUPPLY.  He said that I have burn the Board upward.  I had never heard of the front, as same Pegatron shows the jury capable of using a 750 watt with her.  Hope you can help.

    Reaction of the tech was a little over the top. A motherboard follows the same laws of electronics that apply to all other electric/electric devices. A motherboard will draw only as much current as it needs a power supply. It consumed the jury unless there is a circuit on the motherboard or a device that a failed.and draws too much current.

    You may move it to a larger case. Slimline PC power supply upgrades have restraint of the size and configuration on them that standard PC speakers do not have.

  • Upgrading processor on Compaq Presario 7 rpm 11

    I would just like to know what size processor I can install in this unit so that I can run Windows 7 a bit better on this PC. I know that it is possible to put a different processor in this 1.5 Ghz Pentium 4 PC. I have already installed the max for memory, I wonder if I can do the same for the speed of the processor. Thanks for any help you can give!

    geeman58 wrote: the video card requires a 300 Watt including the PC a. power supply I decided to not upgrade the processor and I'll take your advice. It's just that I would go to the bottom of what I have before moving on to my next PC. In order to do that I went on the Intel site to study this and although I got what seems to be valid information from him, I came to realize that, while their products, maybe in my PC, they are not original they are OEM. So I went to the Web of HP/Compaq site to try to identify just what I have and what a mess it is! I even went to the online chat support, what a joke it is as well. Nobody seems to know where we can go to refer to what is simply in their product! You get reference to their online support site that gives no answer to what motherboard you have, or how to determine if you can update the BIOS. Yet once, I will do what at this point I'm just trying to determine if it could be done. If there is a problem in the age of the manipulation of data, I'm sorry, but why should I buy a HP product? Is another manufacturer no better with the PC component specification? Or is there a resource that I don't know, do you?  I want to say how do you get your information on the HP products which are supposed to be so old that even the guru online chat have no information? If you can answer all these questions I really would appreciate it. As always, have a great day! Thanks for the time!

    Hello geeman58, it seems that all OEMs work well even. There is no way they can keep to the top with all of their systems for ten years, when systems are deemed have reached their service life after 5 years.

    When these systems are at the end of their useful life, as your East, no OEM will have information about the system you need. They switched to newer systems. This is how it is. This is the case with almost any manufactured product you buy. What is the main factor to be considered here, it is that a home computer system is considered as obsolete after 5 years and a business system after 3 years.

    You work with a ten year old system. In the world of computers, a system which is six months, it looked dated, since technology is changing so quickly.

    I suggest you go to learn more about the latest systems and technology, since the old technology is no longer relevant.  That's all just a waste of time and effort to continue along this path.

    You mentioned the video card requires a 300 Watt power supply, but you must also consider more the requirments of power of the video card, the support for this card into the slot in the motherboard. There is a maximum power that can be delivered from the motherboard to the video card. If the card requires more power that the motherboard has been designed to offer, the result will be a motherboard or video card failure.

    It seems you are experimenting the very old hardware and try to get this very old equipment to function as the latest accesoriess, and that is impossible.

    The HP's Support Forum is not an official site of Hewlett Packard Support. It is a peer Forum, with members trying to help others to solve some of their problems with their HP/Compaq computers to. I don't know any Member here who considers himself a "guru". There are a lot of Members here who know a lot about computers in general and the HP/Compaq computers specifically, but they don't know what should I know about all HP/Compaq computers ever built.

    Since it seems that this question cannot be resolved to your satisfaction, I consider that it is resolved to my point of view, because I can't give any other information that may be useful.

  • Presario sg-3320il: upgrade of RAM Compaq presario sg-3320IL

    Hello

    My office - compaq presario sg3320il originally supplied with 1 GB ddr2 RAM (2 x 512 MB sticks). I bought a 2 GB Transcend DDR2 800 Mhz RAM stick (model number: JM800QLU - 2G). It worked perfectly when I removed the old sticks pre-installed and added this new RAM stick only (IE, with a total of 2 GB of memory). I bought another stick of 2 GB of RAM - same brand, same frequency, same model number too and now when that is added with the older 2 GB of RAM, it does not work properly. Some weird appears on the start screen for half the time and sometimes when I restart the system, he gets up to system boot and then hangs or restarts.

    The two 2 GB RAM when used only work perfectly. Product specifications are here as well as the news of upgrade memory - http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/Compaq-Presario-SG3320IL-Desktop-PC/3697170/model/3707607/docume...

    Help, please

    Hello again @kau_shik_51094,

    In the case of 2 RAM sticks not even work together, I suspect that the slot on your motherboard is damaged.

    Really, there may be another explanation that your computer works with both sticks independently of each other, but not together and since they are the exact same it leaves only the motherboard as the problem.

    I hope this helps. Thanks again for your post on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Upgrading power supply on DC7900 SFF

    Hi, I want to know what options are available to upgrade the power supply on my DC7900 SFF to support a graph card Radeon R6570.  Block of current output 250W PSU but the graphics card needs minimum 400W.  Did someone awatre of a secondary market PSU with > 500W that can fit into the SFF case?  Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    You are the very welcome.

    Yes, this diet is the P/S standard for the dc7900 CMT.

    It will be, in any way, shape, fit into the dc7900 SFF.

    As I posted above, I do not know of any alternative feeds that will work in the SFF.

    Try the card as it is and see what happens.  What a guy says it works fine.

    I guess it depends on how much of a load you put on it and the other factors.

    Use this power supply calculator to help you determine if it is possible to use the 6570 in your machine.

  • Z640: Upgraded the video card to 1070 GTX. I have to upgrade power supply?

    My Z640 has a supply of poer 925w but the power plug 6 pins only I think remaining is not enough to feed my 1070 GTX video card in use heavt. It requires care supply 2 x 8 pins and adapter I installed is not always able to provide enough power. HP chat support wasn't any help. Do I need to install a new power supply that provides power sheets 8 pin pci-e?

    @MacTheSteve, welcome to the forum.

    This is Service and Maintenance Guide for the workstation.

    I contacted StarTech to see if they would have an adapter 'Y' which had two 8-pin power connectors.  However, those that they should be the following on your motherboard or the power supply:

    StarTech Brandon: basically, there are 4 SATA power or LP4 molex.

    I believe that your diet is enough power, but simply do not have the required connectors.  At least, I don't the seen on the diagram of the motherboard.  It seems that you need to upgrade the PSU.

  • Upgrading power supply on HP Elite 7500 to install radeon AMD 7850

    Hello

    I really hope that you can give me some advice.

    A friend has an HP Elite 7500 and just bought a Radeon 7850. I had a peek inside. I'm a little nervous with microtours so I just wanted to check a few things.

    The PSU needs to upgrade to at least 500w. A standard power supply is suitable?

    Is there anything else I should be aware of?

    I am nervous that it is some non-standard configuration and can not find a lot of useful info to help me get started.

    Thanks and best wishes

    CaptainOnions, welcome to the forum.

    Here is the Interview Guide & Service for the computer.  What I see in the diagrams, it emerges that the power supply unit (PSU) is standard.  The ATX connector on the motherboard is 24 pins.  However, I suggest to measure and compare the measurements to the one you choose.  I love OCZ and Corsair.  They will provide clean and stable power to the system.  They are passionate about quality with a reasonable price.  I recommend at least 600W.  This will allow in the future for updates.  OCZ has done a very good modular power supply.  It is excellent for smaller cases.

    I suggest to measure the space for the video card, as well.  Allowing you to measure from the rear i/o ports to the opposite side of the computer.  Plan a boost for the power/s Connector required by the card.  The HD 7850 I have looked at has two 6-pin connectors.

    If you have any other questions, let me know.
