Video Proccesor AMD M880G ATI Radeon 4250

So I have an old HP Pavilion dv7 with a chip Radeon 4250. It's always a good pc for most of the uses and the big bright screen is ideal for videos and surf, thing is on occasion, I get an itch to do some light games that the old chip no longer seems to make the chops.
I'd hate to throw side the mobile complete on a vid chip so I was hoping that it could be a driver update or a "band-aid."
Oh, the pc model # is dv7-6153-nr.

Hello scottcollier,

Welcome to the HP Forums!

I understand that you are looking for an update patch or driver of graphics performance on your laptop. To use the feature of switchable/dual graph correctly, you must use the drivers for HP. Unfortunately the only available drivers are dated June 2011.

The drivers are available here: AMD graphics driver high definition, if you're still running Windows 7.

There is no way to upgrade the mobile GPU on this laptop, and as time passes support game becomes more limited on older hardware.

Sorry for the bad news.

  • A Dell U2414H can work with a mac Pro 3.1 (10.9.5) and an ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT?

    Hello

    Here's my dilemma. I recently bought a Dell U2414 as a 2nd monitor to replace my old 2407FWP Dell (has died) with the understanding that the new monitor would work (via a DVI to mini displayport cable). I bought a high quality 3rd party DVI to mini display port cable. Obviously, the monitor does not. I can't get a direct Dell response if this will never work. My hunch is the graphics card can not simply to manage this monitor and it won't work with my system.

    FYI: I also have an old DELL G2210 (resolution: 1680 x 1050 at 60 Hz) on the other DVI port. So I'll still need a DVI port.

    Here are the current video card info:

    ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT: VRAM (Total): 256 MB

    Here is my Mac info (on 10.9.5):

    Model name: Mac Pro (early 2008)

    Model identifier: MacPro3, 1

    Processor name: Intel Quad - Core Xeon

    Processor speed: 2.8 GHz

    16 GB OF RAM

    Firstly: If someone can give an answer as to if the monitor works with this graphics card, just to settle this matter and move?

    Second, assuming that no, my choice appears to be:

    1. return the screen and try to find another 24 "that will work with the original map (someone there suggestions for what is currently still deployed that would work with such an old graphics card?)
    2. upgrade the map so it can handle the new monitor but still run the old.

    I chatted with OWC on this subject and they suggested 2 possible upgrade cards but they will not be returned since they could not guarantee that they will work with this monitor there is a risk.

    Dell has been pretty useless (I have no one said yes, the other doesn't).

    Here are some suggestions from OWC (see below). Can someone comment and tell me if or the other will definitely work or offer another solution? I would really appreciate it!

    ATI Radeon HD 4870

    https://eShop.MacSales.com/item/Apple/MB999ZMA/

    Or more likely: ATI Radeon HD 5870

    https://eShop.MacSales.com/item/Apple/MC743ZMA/

    I know there are more expensive options (Saphire?), but I don't want to spend $500 for a graphics card on a 8 year old computer.

    Thank you!

    Best,

    Joel

    This is a screen with a displayPort, a DisplayPort outside and a Mini DisplayPort connector, in 1920 by 1080 max resolution.

    You are WAY overthinking this. A mini DisplayPort to mini DisplayPort or a Mini DisplayPort to [size] DisplayPort should do all the work for about US$ 10, no conversion.

    You don't need another card unless your is dead.

  • HP 6005 Pro SFF: Replace video card ATI Radeon HD 4200 graphics upgrade for HP 6005 Pro SFF

    I have a HP 6005 Pro SFF with a 240W PS, and I want to upgrade the video card.  It has an ATI Radeon HD 4200.    An HP Forum person (Paul Tikkanen) recommended an upgrade for a 6005 using a video card optional for the HP 6200 Pro SFF:

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16814121439&cm_re=hd_6450-_-14-121-439-_-product

    Please confirm it also works for the 6005.  If I replace it, can I actually remove the Radeon 4200 and replace it directly at the space of the same card mother slot to save space of PCI Expansion slot, or do I use the expansion PCI Express 16 x slot?   If so, is the procedure for the direct replacement documented anywhere?

    Hello:

    The ATI Radeon HD 4200 Video on your PC is the graphics chip integrated according to page 14 of the quickspecs at the link below. In other words, the graphics card is a chip that is soldered to the motherboard.  It is not in an expansion slot.

    http://static.highspeedbackbone.NET/PDF/HP%20Compaq%206005%20PRO%20Business%20pc%20Quick%20Specs.PDF

    The dedicated PCI express x 16 slot should be empty now, and this is where you install the card I have recommended.

    I don't see why the HD 6450 work.  It works in the dc7800, dc7900, Pro 6000, 6200 pro, 8000 Elite, Elite 8100 and 8200 Elite business desktop PC.

    You just need to make sure that uninstall you the HD 4200 graphics card and the driver in Device Manager.  Also check the uninstalling the driver box.

    Also uninstall catalyst control center software in the Add/Remove programs in the control panel section, stop and disconnect the PC, install your new video card and the driver for the 6450.

    Here is the link to the service manual. See Chapter 2 pp 20-25 for the installation procedures card expansion, paying special attention to the info of PCIe x 16 slot.

  • ATI radeon xpress 200 - a1350n - AmberineM-GL6E - share more memory video

    Hi guys my question is easy to explain... I guess the title says it all...

    .....

    I have an old PC HP a1350n that came from the factory with a card mother AmberineM-GL6E and ATI Radeon Xpress 200 as integrated video card.

    Well, my problem here.

    Like I said:

    HP Pavilion Media Center a1350n desktop PC

    AmberineM-GL6E< i="" guess="" is="" from="" asus="" i'm="" not="">

    BIOS version: 3.01< i="" remember="" that="" was="" the="" original="" verios="" of="" the="" bios="" before="" i="" upgraded="" to="">

    Video integrate Chip: ATI Radeon Xpress 200< actualy="" is="" at="" 64="" of="" memory="" shared="" with="" 1gb="">

    My problem is that now my PC has 2 GB of installed ram (2x1GB) and always has 64 MB shared memory...

    Before I updated the bios to 3.15 the option in the Bios that allows you to change the size of the memory could be changed, but now after the upgrade is not possible and with grey letters.

    How can I fix?

    http://h10010.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&LC=en&DLC=en&docName=bph04502#N296

    It is a link that explains some of what I try to explain...

    Also... I have the same problem with another PC (a1450n), but this came with an nvidia chip...

    ... so no idea what can do? to share more memory for the video chip?

    Or should I get the BIOS? (where can I faund drop to do?)

    Note:

    I forgot to say, that in version 3.01, I could share to 256 MB and which was then my PC have had only 1 GB of RAM (2 x 512) which, in the case of the a1350n with radeon express 200

    But in the case of a1450n, I got 126MB with 512 MB of RAM (2 x 256) even at 3.01 version 3.11 BIOS... but now I can't do that... also the option disappeared o.0? WT@$%# !!!

    Unless you saved the BIOS ROM file before you upgrade maybe isn't you luck. Since you ask about it, you have not.

    The original BIOS is not available on the web portal of support for such an old desktop PC.

    You can, if you are willing to take the risk, go on the forums of mod BIOS to get a utility that can return this function to your option of the BIOS screen.  Forums Mod BIOS should have what you need.

  • XC-605 and ATI RADEON HD 3450 PCIe x 16 DMS - 59 S-VIDEO 256 MB low pr

    Hey people,

    I recently bought a XC605 and tried to install a PCIe ATI RADEON HD 3450 graphics card. Unfortunately it does not work. I already read a few items here in the forum, but they do not solve my problem. The card works fine in other machines. I also tried the card with a different (higher) power in the XC605, the problem remains the same.

    The problem is that if the system starts with the new installed card, I don't get no video on any location VGA. I already checked the BIOS twice, but there is no switch, which could solve the problem.

    Any help is appreciated.

    See you soon,.

    Cink

    I just fixed the problem. An update of the bios was necessary.

    See you soon,.

  • ATI Radeon 9250 256 MB pci video card and I can't have my pc to recognize.

    I have an ATI Radeon 9250 256 MB pci graphics card and I can't have my pc to recognize.  Does anyone know if it is compatiable with my motherboard Intel D865GLC AAC27501-403?

    I looked in the bios to disable the existing onboard video but I can't seem to locate it.

    I am running windows vista.  Is it not compatiable with Vista?

    It seems that the latest drivers available for this card are for Windows XP. I suspect that it won't work in Vista as a standard VGA card.

  • ATI radeon hd 4250

    I have a laptop dv7 with the graphics processor ATI Radeon HD 4250.  Lately when I turn on the computer (with power supply), the display goes dark (completely off) after the connection and will not return once again.  I guess the screen darkens when the system tries to start the 4250.

    If I turn on under battery power, the screen works fine, no doubt because the 4250 is not be started up as an energy saving measure.  After bootin fully upward under the power of the battery, I can plug in the power adapter and switch to the 4250 with no problems.

    Is there something I can do to 'reset' the 4250 so that it starts properly?

    BTW, I am on Windows 7 and the pilot of 4250's is up to date.

    Hello

    Try this...

    Start the PC with Intel graophic (on drums), remove the drivers of graphics ATI Control Panel (this will remove possibly driver Intel also). restart the PC (this time PC should start with the basic of windows drivers (no ATI not Intel).)

    Download and reinstall the driver from hp.com.

    It will be useful. Good luck!!!

    Browsing from Windows XP 32 bit to Windows 7 32 bit on my ATI Radeon 7200 video card went from 1280 x 1024 to 1024 x 768. I examined the drivers on each system and found that under XP, I had a Radeon driver, but in Windows 7, it is a Microsoft driver. Anyone find a Windows 7, driver Radeon 7200 32-bit which runs at 1280 x 1024?

    I think you'll be out of luck with this card. ATI has not yet develop drivers for Vista for the 7200.
