  • Qosmio G10 with the new graphics card and pcb - CD update tools do not work

    Hello world

    I hope you can help me. Before a few weeks, I received my Toshiba Qosmio G10 return of aid, because the laptop no longer works. So I get it back with a new graphics card and a new PCB. With my laptop I have a CD called the update tool CD and a sheet of instructions, where it says to start with this tool CD-Rom update after you have installed the Windows with the reovery CD.

    So I did, but when I know the update tool CD to put in and I start with it, the computer installs something, but after a short then it is a message that it is a different model and that I have to put a button to close Notepad. So I did it, but Windows does not start.

    Why is it so? I had done everything that has been said on the instruction sheet.

    Please help me

    Hello

    It will be interesting to find more information on this CD-Rom tool update. Are there tags Toshiba? Can you please write what is described here?

  • This computer has an add-in graphics card and the monitor cable is plugged into the integrated video connector.

    I tried to connect a new TV to my 8700 with HDMI and I get this message:

    This computer has an add-in graphics card and the monitor cable is plugged into the integrated video connector.

    1. power off the computer
    2. plug the cable from the monitor into the graphics add-in card connector. This may require a video card or the video adapter cable.
    3. turn on the computer

    I unplugged from the back of the computer and put it in my drive macbook & blu - ray. Both worked.

    I tried to find a solution to this already, but none really helped.

    Thank you.

  • Upgrade graphics card and power supply

    I will apologize for my lack of knowledge, but what are the procedures to follow regarding changing the settings (i.e.BIOS) before unplugging my computer to install the new units; or on startup AFTER installation of the new equipment? I have a long history of building electronic for example, amps, Preamps etc... but another that understand the end mechanical (installation of equipment), I beg near complete ignorance about the computer upgrade. For general information, I install a ZOTAC GeForce GTS250 graphics card and an Antec Earthwatts 650 power supply (the apparent overkill is in a hurry to other possible mods). I will also add extra cooling for all electronic components, it is the killer #1.

    Thank you very much, David... The graphics card is simply an upgrade of a Nvidia GeForce 8500GT card, so I hope no problem!

  • Can I put a new graphics card and power supply in my computer.

    Hey all, I have the model P7-1459 and it is good, but I was hoping maybe give him a boost of game. But I was not able to know if she could handle what I want to do. The new graphics card would require a 450W power supply, and I do not know if this model could handle. Anyone know of a way or another? Need help.

    Joshua, you are welcome!

    I'm sorry that I misunderstood your question.  I thought that you wanted to know if the computer would process the card.

    Yes, you can upgrade the power supply (PSU).  I suggest to measure the PSU existing and comparing these measures to the one you choose.  I love OCZ and Corsair.  They will provide quality amateur with a reasonable price.  A good video card requires a clean and stable power supply.  I recommend at least 500W; 550W at 600W would be even better.  This would allow for future updates.  The computer uses only the amount of energy needed to operate the components.

    I hope this helps.

  • No video after having replaced the graphics card and power supply

    I have a desktop HP Pavilion m9515y PC. The graphics card that came with it (NVidia GeForce 9600 GS, 768 MB) did not suit the minimum specification required by a game that I played. Things in the game has been very slow - I could see a delay of s ~0.5 to move my mouse on the splash screen for the game.

    Today, I bought a new graphics (NVidia Geforce GTX 550Ti, 1 GB) card and a Corsair 700W PSU to replace the 350W one that came with the system.

    From the outset that I messed up something. It's been a while since I opened the box and I thought wrongly that the top panel (with the rubber surface) to come off before the side panel could be deleted. I removed the two screws now the top panel in place and slipped it in the process it disconnect and two thin black wires which I do not know the function. It was attached near the power button and one was attached to the rear of the Panel. The sons have stripped the ends rather than a connector of some sort and I don't know how they connect back or if they are the cause of the problem that I see now.

    In any case, I advanced and removed the old PSU and video card and replace them with the new. Two of them are significantly larger than the components, they replaced, but they managed to adapt with some maneuvers. All cards are well-placed in the PCI slots.

    The power is connected hard disk, DVD drive, the motherboard and the new video card. I'm not aware of any other connections that need to be made to food. There was not much clearance between the power supply and the back of the DVD player, but I was able to get the data and clinging to the DVD of power cables.

    After having done all that, I hooked my monitor DVI cable, plugged in the power cable and turned on the power. When I plug it in, the power button on the top of the tower is illuminated and the power seems to work. However, my monitor indicates that there is no video signal. I tried to put the old return video card, but I don't always have a video signal. Because I can't get a video signal, I can't tell if the PC is start or not.

    Does anyone know the purpose of the wires that were connected to the top of the Tower?

    They would cause they cause this problem if they are not correctly connected?
    Any suggestions for the possible causes of the absence of a signal from a video card?

    I just took the PC to a repair shop and it turns out that the problem was quite simple: I don't have the PCU power cable 4 pins hanging. Everything seems to start fine when we hung out at the shop. Fortunately, the place that I took did not even charge me what as they don't charge co-pays and since it is such a simple fix.

    Now I feel kind of stupid, but I know better next time...

  • Recommended graphics card and processor for Equium L20-264

    Hello

    I was wondering which graphics cards are compatiable with equium l20-264 because I have a radeon eXpress standard ATI 200 m (waste) and wanted to update my graphics card, but I'm a beginner I upgraded my ram but really need an update for my graphics card to a lot of games for vista (you probably think how I have vista on a computer no-vista laptop ^_^)

    I was also wondering if I coould go my Proccesor to a best something like 1.0 GHZ to 2.5 GHZ but a one celeron so I don't have to get a new motherboard.

    Hello

    I would recommend not all graphics cards for this camera because it s is usually not possible to replace or update the chip graphic card on laptops.

    Upgrading the CPU would be possible.
    The CPU of the new generation of motherboards for laptop is not welded and it might be possible to remove it.
    BUT the updates are not recommended because
    -first of all, you will lose the warranty and
    -Second, the laptop could run unstable due to the higher temperature.

    However, I found a few compatible Intel Celeron - M CPU, which are supported by the motherboard:
    Intel Celeron-M 350 (1.30 GHz) FSB: 400 MHz
    360 (1.40 GHz)
    370 (1.50 GHz)
    380 (1.60 GHz)

  • Pavilion g6 2230tx: can I update my driver graphic card and RAM

    I had HP g6 2230tx with dedicated 4 GB of ram and raedon graphics card... I want to know if I can update my graphics card with nvidia cards... And if yes what cards are compatible with my camera... And if I can improve my 8 GB RAM...
    I aould want also know is what are the raedon cards and nvidia would be compatible with 8 GB RAM or RAM have nothing to do with the graphics please help...

    Upgrading the video card is a non-starter. The video chip is soldered to the motherboard and not something that can be removed and replaced.

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See p. 47

    For 8 GB, the max you need 2 of them:

    4 GB (PC3 12800, 1600 MHz) 641369-001

    http://www.Amazon.com/HP-641369-001-1600Mhz-PC3-12800-memory/DP/B008L325TW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&QID=1461333553&SR=8-2&keywords=641369-001

    More memory will help the video a bit. Not a lot. You say you have 4 gigs which is not bad, so an upgrade to 8 will do any type of work only a little better and video games a little bit better. Don't expect significant increase in the frequency of images of the games, for example.
