Video card help

I have a HP Pavilion p6234f running on windows 7 home premium 64-bit. The vehicle currently has Intel Chipset G33/31 Express version 8.15.10.1912. I'm shopping for a new program for a job that requires a minimum configuration of OpenGL2.1. How do I get there? Thanks for any help

You are welcome.

It is difficult to buy a video card for older computers.  Manufacturers make the newer cards with VBIOS' are requiring a UEFI BIOS.  HP didn't start to make motherboards with complete UEFI until October 2012.

Here is a card that should work for you.  It won't be good for the games, but it will be better than the integrated video.  It has OpenGL 4.1.  Read the reviews to see what they have to say about it.  If you decide not to buy this card, it is a good example of what you need.  It requires a power supply with a minimum of 400W.  I love Corsair products.  I recommend at least 500W.  This will give you some leeway for peak needs.  Modular power supply offers the choice to only use the cables needed.  This allows for better air circulation.

  • Pavilion p7-1421 video card help.

    I recently bought a Pavilion p7-1421 pc which has an AMD A8-5500 Quad Core CPU and integrated graphics Radeon HD 7560, running Windows 8. I used a Radeon HD 5770 card to my old pc and wanted to use it in my new since the integrated graphics card can't start some games online for @# $%. So... I swapped the OEM power supply for a 650w, disabled the onboard graphics via Device Manager, plugged the HD 5770 card into the PCI-E slot, the power cord plugged in and everything started working. To turn the pc back on, I get the thing BEEP/BLINK 6... (which means theres a video card problem)... and so I start trying to figure what is wrong. I had somehow flashing/beeping to stop, but my monitor does not receive a signal. IM pretty much stuck at this point and don't know what the problem is or how to get the map to work. I don't think that throwin a HD 5770 card into a platform that came with 7560 HD integrated graphics would be the question, or is it? If anyone can throw some advice my way, id really appreciate it. Thank you.

    Hello

    What specific video card brand and model number (including the amt of VRAM on board)?

    It can be a problem and secure boot UEFI environment, BIOS firmware.  Some manufacturers have put the code in their BIOS vdeo cards that allow them to deal with the issue and others have not.

    It's something along a number of forums and blogs are reviewing internet. Check your video card manufacturer website and the forum to see if others have similar issues the same vec card you have.

  • 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.

  • Help with my video card installation

    For about 5 months, my uncle crashed his computer desktop HP Pavilion a6330f, pre-installed with Windows Vista, then he gave it to me, and I formatted the HARD drive and Windows XP Professional SP3 is installed. I installed all the drivers needed to access the Internet and then I carried others away. Here is the problem.

    OK, so I got a new HD of VisionTek Radeon 3650 OC edition 1 GB GDDR2 video card. I went to VisionTek.com and got the same driver I needed, installed and restarted my computer, then I go into my BIOS and put my graphics card to PCI x 16, which is what the map is well connected and must also. Can I connect my monitor to the video card (Acer P206HL) and nothing comes, kaput. So I plug it into the built-in slot. I check my system info, it says that I always use the integrated card GeForce. But I don't see anything not connected it. Someone help please, I want to use my video card, because it's the only thing that keeps me playing Skyrim.

    Thanks for any help I can get!

    Hi IRL1231,

    Open your PC and a few measurement in parallel with the PCI-E x 16 slot to see how long of a video card will fit. The adjacent slot on the PCI-E x 16 slot must be vacant. Look at the motherboard, and ensures that the components on the motherboard will not interfere with the installation of the video card.

    This PowerColor Radeon 6850is $130 after rebate.  The card is 8.5 "length.

    PSU Corsair CX500is $ 40 after rebate and it's quality food.

    ' HP ' how-to 'articlesshould be useful.

    TIP: Remove the flange (cover) and unlock the scanner and move forward before you remove and replace the power supply. This will facilitate installation. The new PSU cables will be longer so find an empty Bay and store them in order to improve air flow.  Install the power supply and that your PC stable first before installing the video card.

  • Tried to replace the video card integrated with card pci-e x 16 and lost audio - help please

    Is this normal - when you replace your car video with a pci-e video card you would lose your sound.  The system I have is a Pavilion a1450n and has 3 pci slots and 1 pci-e.  I changed the pci-e video in the bios and everything is fine, but no sound at all.  When I took out the card then I would sound.

    Please help.

    The former system of video seems to give me a little trouble.  He keeps hide and freeze from time to time.  Don't know when that will happen.  But when this happens, a blue screen it freezes or just blanks out and comes back.  It will happen nobody knows.  Everything else works fine.  Hate to give up this old gem - for a lot of software installed to lose.

    Thank you all very much for help.

    William

    Hi, William.

    Yes, when you have an old PC where the BIOS does not have HDMI.

    Your PC thinks that you have installed a sound card and a video card because of the HD audio chip on the video card.

    Thus, he disabled the integrated audio system.

    The fix should be easy...

    Go into the BIOS of your PC, look at the options menu and find the onboard audio setting.

    It will be set to auto or off.

    Change the setting to "Enabled". Save the configuration it and yet when you go out (save the settings and exit).

    When you restart, you should have the back of Board.

    A new processor, power SUPPLY and a graphics card means that, probably, a new decent machine might be a better option. Take a look on ebay, I suggest that a few Intel Core i5 - 750 can be a very good machine, because it's a pure core quad and beats even a core i7 mobile Processor...

  • P7-1235: helps p7-1235 video card!

    Please someone help! I have a p7-1235 and I'm trying to upgrade to a video card to improve game performance. The problem I have is that I can't get a card to work. First of all, I tried XFX r9 270 x without a bit of luck, will not appear. Traded the card for XFX r7 260 x still same problem, after I went to Best Buy, which is where I got the two cards, they tried another XFX r7 260 x and it doesn't work too. They even if the MOMO couldn't handle the power draw of the map and recommended a card with less power needs. At this point, I returned the third card XFX. I bought an EVGA gtx 750ti hoping it would work. Well now, it starts and allows you to start windows screen and hangs there. Just FYI, I've updated the power supply, first got a thermaltake 650w with 43A on the rail. Since that o the help, I'm back too. Currently, I have a PSU of 500w with 31A on the rail and when all connections have been made correctly and power connectors are connected. I am at my end of witts and everyone with insite please help. I was thinking about an older chipset, i.e. HD 7850 might work, but I don't know that Best Buy can ban me for life if they see me here with another comeback. Thanks in advance.

  • video card and power suply upgrade help

    I bought the Hp Envy 700-074 computer from Bestbuy. I want to update my video card to a power supply NVIDIA gtx 660 and at least a 600 watt. My problem is the size of the space available for upgrades. How long can the card may be before it hits something or limit too high air flow? The size of a power supply (size wise... height, width, length) will fit in the case. There are several different manufacturers of these two elements. I don't want to buy something online having to return, as he does not. If you guys can help would be great. Thank you

    Sandra

    The nvidia gtx 660 video card you've chosen fits in the single available on your card PCI Express 3.0 location mother MS-7826 (Kaili) so unless you placed another card, you won't have problems with space for the card that the computer has been designed with a map like this to be placed in this slot.

    As for power provide the current dimensions of the 460w (100v-240v) power supply of the computer are 150 x 140 x 86 mm (5.9 x 5.5 x 3.4 inches) as it is stated in the specifications of the product for your computer, as shown in the link below.

    A same size 600w PSU must break easily.

  • Cannot install Windows 8, assuming that its due to the video card... Need help!

    Hi all, I'm terribly frustrated today. I think the video card, a brand specifically 6450 marked as a 7450 here, is at the origin of the problems. The pilot was a mess and when I updated and restarted windows 8 (using the stock drivers) then updated after hesitating to Windows 8. After I restarted my computer, windows 8 has been roasted and I couldn't access what anyone, I had to do a recovery install. I wonder if there are any suggestions as to what I can do here, would like any advice! Nick

    HI there - don't know why I don't post the model (h8-1227, a Pavilion), but regardless, the issue was not the video card.

    It's a seemingly simple, innocuous add-on I've used for over 2 years.

    Never heard of the Asus AI Charger?  It is used to help to "mount" the power to the USB ports on a computer, allowing an iPad draw enough power to recharge in FACT.  It has been a great feature to my computer.

    However such, it killed my first USB 3.0 ports, completely.  I would like to install the HP drivers and the USB port will work until I rebooted, then it stops.

    I completely misunderstood this as something that might have been originally, but here, I looked at the USB ports in the Device Manager and saw the tag HAVE charger which they are attached.

    Something SMALL, simple as it seems, is what was causing all that headache and frustration.  I probably lost more than 20 hours trying to solve a problem this stupid thing caused.  I even ended up buying a new video card, guess THAT's what the problem is here.

    What's happened is that the only TWO things I have installed in the computer were the new drivers for video card, Office and the charger HAVE stupid!

    Sometimes the simplest things are the most stupidly frustrating things!

  • Video card in Dell Optiplex 755 Desktop HELP

    Hello everyone, I'm new here and I really need your help :)

    I have a Dell Optiplex 755 desktop computer and incredible as it may seem that I did not know the Office had no graphic card (video card?) lol x)

    The Office gave at Christmas, I wonder if you could indicate a video card ideal for my desktop PC which is not too expensive.

    I use Windows 7 Pro, I don't know much about computers components, but I found this graphics card what you think? Will work or not? graphics-cards.specout.com/.../ASUS-GeForce-210-Silent

    I really need your help guys.

    This is bad advice because the card in question is not necessarily in all cases EXCEPT TOUR because of the unique slot configuration.  FAT OFF heat sinks will not physically go in the models of desktop SFF and USFF has no slot so no card is an option.

    Radiator to map out more 1 wide slot.

    This is why I always recommend specific ASUS Radeon HD5450 or 6450 cards.
