Video card monitor / external w/D630 problem

Hello world

I have an old D630 of 6 months which has just started to give me some big problems.  I am a student and most of the time, I leave my laptop at home and connect to a monitor LCD 22 "to use the main screen.  But recently, after being under Windows for about 10 minutes the screen quality would begin to deteriorate until they finally (after 10 seconds) the entire computer freezes completely, and I hold the power button to turn off the laptop.  I tried to install the latest drivers from the website of Dell, but still had the same problem.  At this point, I thought that the video card is dying.  I started in safe mode to see if I could keep my laptop going long enough to copy important documents on my external hard drive and found that when the laptop runs only off the built-in screen, the degrading video problem does not occur.  Now I write of my laptop which worked for a straight hour (monitor internal only) without any problem.

I think I might try to wipe the hard drive and reinstall windows to see if that fixed the problem but I still believe that the video card is endangered.

On a side note, this morning when I booted up the built-in screen showed two very degraded images (the one on the other).  I could get into windows, but the resolution is at the lowest possible and the external monitor did not work.  Let him go until degradation went (not the stacked image) and when I restarted it worked fine on the external monitor and internal, until he did what I described above.

Someone at - he had experiences like this?  I guess I have to send my laptop for the video card fixed/replaced.

  • video card and the black screen problems.

    Hello world! My desk top compaq presario sr1411nx don't seem to support a video card, I've recently tried

    to install. I put the card in one of the three open slots connected to the motherboard, and it seems to fit very well.

    The operating system I have is a Microsoft Windows XP Edition family version 2002 service pack 3, Celeron (R) CPU 2.80 ghz, 248 MB of ram.

    The graphics card is an ATI Radeon X1300PCI 256 MB. After I installed the card the following continues to happen.

    I turn the hard drive and follow on. The windows start menu back to the top.

    A message box appears telling me to close all programs. Restart the computer if the installation of the video card

    can be updated and completed.

    I then, restart the computer. After that I'm doing it just a black screen and white pointer popup. As I move the mouse

    There is no beep sounds. Browser menu and start the internet windows does not load upward.

    I then remove the video card and restart the computer and everything works fine.

    Question: What could be the cause, and I can fix it?

    Thank you

    Try to go into the cmos setup in the bios and see if there is any option to disable the onboard video as memory goes against zero or as allowing the pci. If not try to change the graphics card to the other pci slot

  • HP Pavilion 500-314: big problems by adding an external video card

    You are looking for assistance.

    I recently bought a HP Pavilion 500-314.  Specifications are the following:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c04293928

    The unit includes the integrated graphics card Radeon R7 and comes with a 300w power supply

    I bought this unit in large part because it states explicitly that "supports PCI Express x 16 graphics cards".  I run a quad-monitor configuration for my work and traditionally did it this using a card ATI over-pants 2450.

    I tried now three different external graphics cards and can get any of them to work:

    First attempt was with a VisionTec Radeon HD 5570 (point #900345).  This card supports quad-monitor configuration and requires a minimum power of 250w.  When I installed the card, the HP Pavilion beeps several times a series of 4 or 5 (can't remember which) emits a beep, but refused to send an image to a video output (either on board or the new card).

    Next attempt was with an EVGA GeForce GT 610.  It's a Setup dual monitor and requires a minimum 300w power supply.  Got the same exact response as with the VisionTec (i.e. the series of beeps... computer would not start all monitors).

    So both of these cards (new), I basically gave up immediately that I couldn't in the BIOS (b/c wouldn't monitors) to see what was going on.  My understanding is that the series of 4-5 beeps usually means that there is a problem of graphics card, or the card that was added doesn't have enough power.  It's frustrating, because the HP Pavilion 500-314 a supposedly a 300w power supply, which is at least equal to the minimum required for each of these cards.

    At this point, I took out the ATI over-pants 2450 my old machine and tried.  This card at least has not caused the series of 4-5 beeps.  Windows has started.  However, once I log in, Windows tries to install the new (card over-pants) repeatedly, only then, the screen flashes and blinks and flashes.  Then I went into the BIOS.  The BIOS indicates that the system recognizes the card, and that the integrated video has been disabled.  However, there is always a signal coming out of the onboard video output (DVI), so it is not in fact actually disabled.  My feeling is that Windows is trying to control two separate video cards (edge + external), which is what causes the problems.  I can turn off the graphics card over-pants w/under Windows (in Safe Mode) and let the card installed, and things work fine.  However, as soon as I try and activate the card, I get endless cycle flashing monitors.

    I spent a few long sessions with HP technical support and they were useless.  They claim that this is not a problem of HP as the embedded video works fine.  I find this extremely frustrating response.  I think it is a matter of HP, because BIOS doesn't seem to be properly disable the onboard video.  Not to mention that the PC can't seem to properly interface with Windows compatible 8 PCI-E cards that claim explicitly require less energy than this unit has.

    I'm usually pretty computer savvy, but have reached my wits end on this one.  I'd appreciate any help anyone could provide.  I tried all kinds of combinations of variables (i.e. enabling integrated video, setting external card at the elementary level, etc.) through the BIOS, but also combinations of w/under Windows, disable integrated video, but nothing is working.

    900345 VisionTek Radeon HD 5570 1 GB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x 16

    Big_Dave,

    Thanks a lot for your quick response.

    The first time that I spoke with HP support, they had me disable secure boot.  Unfortunately my problems (i.e. the cards would not install correctly).  However, after reading the link you provided that I was inspired to try things one last time with a new beginning.  I uninstalled all drivers, removed all cards, re-engaged start-up secured, restarted, close, disabled secure boot, reinstalled the cards and rebooted.  And, this time, the system accepts the card GeForce GT 610.

    Difficult for me to express how grateful I am to you.  I spent two weeks and countless hours trying to get this corrected.  Just I found these forums earlier wish.

    HP recovery discs: I have them, but cannot use them because the DVD laser does not (CD only)

    Symptoms:

    • CTRL key flashes white light: 2 flashes, pause and repeat (BIOS corruption)

    Hello, I'm recovering from the corruption of BIOS, hoping that it is not a failed mobo.

    I downloaded the latest BIOS update for my system, but I can't this file to install on an external USB key using HP instructions to restore the BIOS.

    To 1.11 step, I don't get the "HP system BIOS Update Utility" screen. Instead, I get this:

    My questions:

    1. is there an easy way to get this .exe on a USB? (I tried 3 computers and 3 cards USB, WTH then?)

    2. If not, can I just unzip and create a bootable USB in another program by copy/pasting the BIOS file?

    3. is there anything else I should try before flashing the BIOS?

    Thanks in advance for your help. ^^

    UPDATE: the "BIOS error" was in fact the video card that failed due to repeated overheating. The repair shop, replace the video card and repaired the overheating problem (I don't ask how), and my computer is like new.

    For those who have a similar with their computer, my error "BIOS" problem (as it is coded by flashing lights of my computer) turns out to be a video card has failed.

    The repair shop, said that what happens when computers overheat frequently, which mine did. Thus, they have changed the video card and solved the overheating problem, and my computer is in working condition.

  • Update video card: 630i Desktop - need advice

    I have a Dell XPS 630i Desktop 5 1/2 year, which usually is going very well, with enough power for most of the cases.  Recently implemented a 125 GB SSD as drive operating system.

    Anyway, in these last days, we got some random video artifacts appears sporadically on one or two of my two monitors Viewsonic (DVI for both of the Nvidia 9800GT 512 MB video card).  A small section of the screen will have the weird characters, sometimes a bunch of screen Flash, etc.  And a few times that there was a BSOD crash, with the video driver (nvlddmkm.sys) be responsible.

    I tell myself that there must be a bad video card or driver.  I have updated to the pilot the most recent on the Dell site (R213185, 181.30, Vista 64, A04) and well.  But I have this vague feeling that it is a hardware problem.  If it was a driver problem, why now after all these years, he suddenly would be problems, no recent changes to the system, etc..

    I used the tools of diagnosis from Dell, which has tested the performance of the video card, memory, etc, and no errors were detected, which is encouraging.

    I post here, to seek advice, in which case the video card end up being the problem and need to be replaced.

    1. If I decide to replace it, what are some good recommendations for a new map of video for this system (Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.40 GHz, 6 GB of RAM).  I don't want exaggerated and pay for potential performance of video card I would not be obtained with the old motherboard, CPU, RAM, etc.

    2. the current system is sufficient for most cases, with the main shortcoming being the slow performance when you are working on my of Canon DSLR Raw files in Adobe Camera Raw and Photoshop, watch a HD video from camcorders or other sources, etc.  In this regard, replace the video card would provide a substantial improvement in this type of performance?

    3. I'd rather than replace the entire office by something more recent?

    All thought, popular point of view.

    Don

    Video card drivers can become corrupt and simply uninstall them and their update with a new driver may solve the problem.  It is more likely a hardware problem, a driver problem, even if the 9800 GT is an old map.  If he wasn't pushed hard with the game over the years, then it can last a long time. XPS 630i is a good system and with the Q6600 it is still worthy and can perform very well.  If you were to replace the video card, I'd just get something simple like the GTX 650 HERE, which would exceed the performance of the 9800 GT and not market much.

  • Bad video card - last ditch effort

    Hello

    I'm 99% sure this is my video card that is causing this problem.

    Started a few days ago the screen filled with red pixels randomly, it could get worse over the next few minutes, and then the computer was completely insensitive - had stopped the clock and the mouse does not work yet.  I was able to ssh from my laptop, but cannot open applications and reboot via ssh wouldn't work, had to hard - reboot.  After having let it sit for awhile, it seemed better, I was hoping it was a stroke of luck.  Just right tonight (a few days since the accident of 1), he began acting again... bad.  I tried to run the Apple Hardware Test, he could not even done that - she's blocked (at the forefront in the screenshot), the mouse still worked, but even after half an hour, neither the time nor progress bar update.

    I have a NVIDIA Quadro graphics card, I'm not sure that is because apparently they only give information on the card itself.  I know that it was very expensive.  Tomorrow I'll try cleaning all the contacts on the map and the location of the motherboard.  Beyond that, all I can think to do is to buy a new video card.  Is it possible to fix a video card, or is it simply not feasible?  I can also try to put it in another location, to see if that solves (which would indicate that the problem is on the motherboard, rather than the map, but I doubt that will solve it).

    I removed the video card all together, the system is not is more locked up (so far), I am able to use via my MacBook screen sharing, and everything seems good function... which pretty much confirms for me, it's the video card (or slot) that's the problem.

    Does anyone have suggestions until I leave shell $500 on a new video card?  This expenditure could not have come at a worse time...

    I don't think I need anything too serious for a video card, I use Final Cut Pro.  I installed also just Apple Motion (literally, one day before all this crap started to happen, it seems strange that it could be related, but the time is quite a coincidence), and I join with two dual-link DVI ports.  I'd be curious to know if anyone has recommendations what video card to buy.

    Thanks in advance for any advice or thoughts.

  • Code 39 - video card driver. already tried to reinstall the drivers several times.

    Suddenly, I lived this issue one day after having had a normal life with a new video card.  It was quite well until you restart the next day, where he then reports in Manager device which:

    Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

    I am completely puzzled, as I have:

    -If she had problems with drivers-free work provided by the CD the initial day of the installation,
    -A tried several installations of:
    (a) CD drivers provided by.
    (b) latest driver from nVidia.
    (c) later twist driver Xtreme-G.
    (d) to allow Windows Update to install the drivers.
    -Also attempted to return to the old video card and using [compatible] drivers for it, but it returned code 39; This video card, I had no such problems with in the past.

    The first noticeable symptom has been toggled off Aero and the resolution to 640.  I am unable to run several games/etc. as the video card is automatically disabled "because he has a problem.  My graphics card is an ASUS 240 512 DDR5 ENGT, and the old one is eVGA 9400 GT; my OS is Windows 7 x 64.   The first time using the map with this computer, it was compared with the time 3D games Vantage / real and proved to be stable and functional order.

    I can't do a restore with the drivers, or have no system restore points.  Everything is fine and I can still watch videos (assuming that the CPU is handling); I can also run games like Starcraft, which I suppose doesn't require DirectX or anything that requires a dedicated card.

    I tried the sweeper driver as well as the General uninstaller, and he still refuses to acknowledge the drivers - this was done after a full withdrawal of all components of nVidia ("NVIDIA Drivers", PhysX and NVIDIA Control Panel); However, I saw again the nVidia control panel in the Panel of the menu start (no uninstall programs and features). my steps were:

    (1) Uninstall using programs uninstall,
    (2) secure using mode driver sweeper,
    3) reset, once again in SafeMode to aid driver sweeper,
    (4) restart, install the drivers.

    Of this, I was successfully able to disable the generic automatic installation of drivers window; later, I was able to install the video drivers.  However it still does not.  The Control Panel also continues to say, "Now you do not use a screen attached to a NVIDIA GPU", and Device Manager reports code 39.

    I'm running out of ideas, so I'm looking for outside help for this problem - I appreciate any information you may be able to provide.

    Check the programs and features (and memory), I can say that I have nothing else that the drivers installed for the new video card.

    I reinstalled the drivers for the 9400GT when I was testing to see if the replaced card would fail, and he gave the code 39.

    Thanks for your comments.

    EDIT: The problem seems to be fixed after a reinstall of Windows.  I give my thanks to both of you for the effort.

  • Three monitors with a single video card?

    Hey guys,.

    I have a user with a T430 possessing a video card Intel HD connected to a Mini Series 3 with 2 DVI connectors.

    She claims that it connected to his laptop to another docking with the same configuretion and she was able to work with 2 monitors connected to the docking station and its display LCD on the laptop, I tried the same thing with its current docking station and it will not recognize 2, the LCD on the laptop and 1 on the monitor connected to the docking station.

    I've never seen this work with just a video card, I saw him when he has a second video card in there, but once again, she claims, he worked on an another docking station (exactly the same thing from a work colleague) it is plugged.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    The T430 is able to support three LCD, if you use the 3 series with more mini docking station with 2 monitors connected via DVI or Displayport. The third monitor can be internal or external connected via the mini laptop own DP.

  • 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.
