• Graphic/video card [REPLACEMENT / UPGRADE] on the desktop HP Pavilion - help

  I have the following:

  Desktop HP Pavilion Elite m9152p

  Upgrade to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (updated 11/2009)

  The video card seems to have gone out and tried the following:

  Operating system reinstallation

  Uninstalled & drivers Reinstalled & restoration

  Before attempts above, no changes had been made to software or hardware only led to the same result: the video seems to be fine, and then it crashes and hangs and doesn't eventually having a hard reboot how, the computer loads the integrated video/graphic card.

  I need to buy a replacement video/graphics card, but I'm not sure what card I need to be aware of, or that my computer can handle as a replacement and maybe a possible upgrade (not necessary) - any help in this regard would be most appreciated.

  Thank you!

  I think it's a good choice.

  The comments seem positive most of the time that the fan seems to be quiet.

  I don't know if your previous card had HDMI.

  When you install your new video card, it can disable your sound system because of the HDMI audio chip on the video card.

  If you do not lose your integrated audio system, after you install the video drivers, reboot the machine, go into BIOS, find the onboard audio setting. It can be set to Auto or disabled. Change the setting to "Enabled". Save the configuration when you have made the change and again when you exit the BIOS.

  Upon restart, you will have your on-board audio back.

  Impatience back on your part.

• Looking to update my video card without upgrading my power 250 Watt on my Pavillion 6837c

  Looking for suggestions as to what would be a good update on the cheap card I recently added 14 GB of RAM so the thing is fast enough, that I would like to just the films to be a little more transparent, any suggestions? Thank you! -josh

  Joshua, welcome to the forum.

  Any video card that would work with your power supply (PSU), be much, if any, better than the integrated video.  New middle level cards require at least 350W to 400W power.  Therefore, if you don't want to upgrade the PSU, I recommend staying with the integrated graphics subsystem.  In fact, the problem is to find a card that works.  Manufacturers do not give the requirements of power on their lower level cards.

  If you decide to improve the PSU, I like Corsair and OCZ.  That would give you many more choices of cards.  I love EVGA, Sapphire, XFX and PNY in that order.

  Note: Remember that your system is not as good as the weakest component.  With the CPU and memory that you have a better map would greatly increase performance.

• M18x R1 - video card problem / upgrade suggestions

  So, it all started with a referenced BSOD, atikmpag.sys error

  

  I got my R1 m18x for nearly 3 1/2 years and is the first BSOD I had ever seen, so I was a little worried, especially because it would be only in safe boot mode. After a lot of troubleshooting and running the diagnostics available, were found the following error message:

  Error code: 2000-0332 Validation: 52847

  Test video memory integrity gap

  

  At the end of the day, I wiped everything to factory settings but things were not always works well so I went with a complete reinstallation of Windows 7 Edition family and cobbled together to make it work again with the completely disabled AMD 6970 M (although still plugged) and using the integrated Intel graphics card.

  I was not able to understand what is the Validation code, but given the problems, I guess that the graphics card is shot. Can someone confirm that? And if there is some kind of obvious solution that I have not yet tried to solve this problem, I'm all ears (or 'eyes' in this case).

  And if the shot - which I suppose that this is what is a good upgrade/replacement? There's a load of information online about possible replacements, but I would really like to hear m18x R1 owners who have direct experience with replacements/upgrades. Ideally, I would like to upgrade to a more powerful graphics card to extend the ability to play in the future without having to tinker with / upgrade to other aspects of the laptop.

  Full system specs (to the best of my knowledge and before turning off the AMD 6970 M):

  

  

  Hello

  We recommend flashing the latest Bios system firmware if you haven't done so already, click here for the download link for the Bios. Try to run the ePSA/Diagnostics test again and if you keep getting the same error code, then you may need to replace the video card.

  Thanks Geekster,

  I'll open the case and take a look, is there other traps known with HP systems and case I must be wary of?

  T.

  T, no, none that are scary, at least.  Case of small, medium, make sure you do some interesting cable management situations.  Nothing that can't be overcome quite easily, however.  Always try to keep good air circulation in the case.  Can avoid you heat caused outages.

  Good luck!

• Alienware X 51 - R2 5747BK, video card and upgrades of memory?

  I need to see if there are options for the upgrades mainly the graphics card for the alienware AX51R25747BK. Also if I add memory.

  Here's good compatible parts for the Alienware X 51 R2:

  • 330 watts power
  • 2 x 8 16GB DDR3 1600 MHz
  • GTX 960 4 GB card reference

  OS on SSD and you are fully updated... until the rumor Pascal GTX 1080 June 2016 release?

• Want to improve my diet for a new video card; have any questions.

  Wishes of the members of the Forum;

  I have a PC HP Pavilion Elite HPE - 190t CTO Office purchased in March 2010.  Very good product, but food is not fit to what I run.

  I have purchase a Corsair 650TX so I can run an EVGA GTX 680.  This requires a minimum of 550W and dedicated a 35Amp 12V line.  All this has the Corsair.

  I started with the information on the site of HP support on how to install a new power supply.  Followed the instructions.  Replaced my PSU 460W.  Tried to turn on my computer.  Power through the system, but it seems the cord for the APX CPU is slightly different or does not work.  Can not tell what is happening. The device seems to be functional, but it is possible that the CPU 12V cord is bad.  I'm not sure.  If this is compatible with my computer, I'm missing something.  I've updated the BIOS, also upgraded to professional Windows.  It feels like it could work almost, that somehow I'm missing just something.

  Clues.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Try to clear the CMOS memory.  He worked for a person at the time when changing the PSU.

  If the above does not work then check your connections and watch to see if the fans are running and you don't not knocking something loose.  The FAQ above have a test procedure for power supply, you might want to try.

  Finally, try the old power supply.  If it works then you probably have a bad power supply.  It is rare, but it happens to all manufacturers of power supply.

  Well, unfortunately this is not possible.

  I recommend you research a little in this forum for similar issues.

• HP Pavilion a1640n: install a new nVidia video card

  I just bought a GeForce 9400 GT from nVidia video card to upgrade my HP Pavilion a1640n running Windows XP SP3.  The a1640n has integrated the video and says nVidia user guides: "If your motherboard has integrated video card integrated, you may need to disable first, please contact your system or motherboard manufacturer."

  My questions: do I have to first disable the integrated graphics subsystem?  If so, how?  Are there jumpers on the motherboard or the I disable in BIOS or in Windows Device Manager or...?

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello:

  There is no video settings to change in the BIOS normally on the HP PC. There are no riders to pass.

  What you want to do is to first uninstall the drivers of your graphics integrated in the Device Manager. Just right click on the match video and select uninstall.

  Do not restart the computer. Instead, stop it and install your new video card. Re-turn on your PC. Your new video card should be detected automatically and your integrated graphics should be disabled automatically.

  Don't forget to move your video cable on the new map.

  If you purchased a card with HDMI output, your integrated sound card will probably disabled in favor of audio HD integrated on the video card.

  Don't worry there. Go into your BIOS if your sound is turned off and change your audio settings embedded auto to "Enabled". Save the setting it by hitting the F10 key and there still when you go out.

  Your integrated sound card should be back, and you'll also audio HDMI when you need.

• HP Slimline problem with video card?

  Hello

  I got a Slimline s3020n for a few years and have never had a problem with it. A few days ago when I turned it on there is no picture on the monitor except the box that is displayed when you turn it on and it says: "no signal". I plugged into another computer to the screen to see if the monitor was the problem and it worked fine. I swapped the hard drive thinking that might work, but still had the same problem. All lights turn on and it seems that everything works (hard drive, fans) which leads me to think, maybe it's a problem with the video card. My question is if you have advice on what could be the problem and I think that the video card is integrated into the motherboard, so I have to replace the whole motherboard to fix this. Thank you.

  -Chris

  Chris,

  Your PC has built-in video on the motherboard.  If it is simply a matter of graphic, a low profile card could be added to the system.   However, you can view the following link - depending on when you purchased your product - you may qualify for an extended warranty - the problem, he describes sounds similar to what you mentioned.  I found this on the page of the product of the s3020n, btw.

• Video card driver displays an error message after reformatting computer with Vista

  I reformatted my computer using windows vista and I kept getting an answer that the used copy was an illegal copy of windows. In the meantime my computer was working fine. I called Microsoft and they verified that it was not an illegal copy and gave me an additional code to activate windows. After activation, my image of the screen became smaller with a border of 1 inch black around the screen (I have a widescreen monitor). I tried to correct this problem and have discovered that my video card driver has an error message saying that windows has stopped this device because it has reported a problem. I tried to reinstall the latest version of the driver, update to windows vista and tried all the suggestions that have been proposed on the microsoft Web site, and it still doesn't work. I reinstalled everything again with the same problem. Can you please help me solve this problem. Thank you.

• 660 Inspiron video card problem

  Yesterday, I bought an Inspiron 660 and I bought an EVGA GeForce GTX 550 Ti - 2 GB Superclocked video card to upgrade from the integrated Intel HD graphics card already in there. I got my computer and then to Best Buy to pick up my card only to find out when I cracked the open Inspiron 660 food had no additional power cable! So, I can't start my new card! I am very disappointed, my old Dell Dimension E510 had manipulated and additional power cables my XFX GeForce 8600 GTS very well! Why this model that is supposed to be more recent, faster and better would not address this EVGA GeForce GTX 550 it? Is there anything I can do to remedy the situation before I have on factory reset and return this piece-o-junk?

  Is there a 500 Watt electric and cable someone recommend me?

  Here are a few suggestions.   GTX 550 it should take only a single PCIe 6-pin power cable.  However, all these two have.

  Inspiron will usually just come with the 300 Watt power supply in the mini towers.  You must go to the XPS line for larger power supplies.  Video cards are now more energy efficient.  Maps of the past who had need of connections do not today at certain levels of performance.    There are a lot of cards today that will be better than the old 8600 GTS which requires no power connections.
