I contacted both HP and PNY customer support. They've not found any solution yet.
Only the suggestion I heard from HP customer support is change the graphic card w/ PCIe 3.0 support.
I believe PCI slot should be backward compatible w/ 2.0 version. 
Does it really matter install PCIe2.0 graphic board on 3.0 slot?
My ohter option is AMD FirePRo V4900, which is one of the certified graphic card for the Autodesk.
However, I'm not sure wether it works with this machine.
Please give me an answer.

Hello masterqueue.
This desktop was a CTO (Configured-to-Order) model.  As such, there is a lot of information I do not know about the machine.  Most importantly, how large is the power supply?  According to the computer's specification page it could have anywhere from a 300 watt to a 600 watt power supply.  That is a very big difference.
I'll keep an eye out for your response.  Have a great day.
Please click the white star under my name to give me Kudos as a way to say "Thanks!"

  • Nvidia Quadro 600, GeForce GTX 560 Ti or cheaper for Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3?

    Hello,
    I am a professional photographer and I am setting up a new PC (i7, Windows 7 64bit). But I have some troubles to choose the graphic card.
    I use Lightroom and Photoshop CS5 3, no video editing.
    Between the Open GL, Open CL, CUDA accelerations etc ... professional graphic cards models and consumer ones I am lost!
    The Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti seems more powerful and more versatile but I tell myself that if Nvidia has professional range there must be a reason.
    So in Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3 what would be the best: GeForce GTX 560 Ti or Nvidia Quadro 600?
    http://www.geforce.com/Hardware/GPUs/geforce-gtx-560ti/specifications
    http://www.nvidia.com/object/product-quadro-600-us.html
    Any reason to get a Quadro 2000?
    http://www.nvidia.com/object/product-quadro-2000-us.html
    Or the graphic card doesn’t matter much and I should take an entry-level GeForce to enjoy the HDMI and the silence? Which one then?
    Does the Quadro 600 manages 10bits display 10bits? And the Geforce?
    Any change announced with Photoshop CS6 and Ligthroom4?
    The only 3D application I use is Google Earth in 3D mode, does it make any difference?
    Thank you for your help.

    You say "no video editing"...  If that's going to be the case, and you won't use the Mercury engine in the Adobe Premiere Pro package, which needs the nVidia Cuda subsystem, then I recommend you consider the ATI brand over nVidia.
    Why?
    Because while neither brand's developers (ATI or nVidia) always release perfect drivers, I find ATI display drivers to be of consistently higher quality than that of nVidia releases.  What this means to you is generally fewer crashes or quirks.  ATI has also traditionally supported older cards into the future better than nVidia - this might matter to you in a few years.
    People ask me what video card I would recommend, and right now that would be a VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 6670 1 GB GDDR5 card.  I like this particular card because:
    I've had 100% success with VisionTek cards in a number of different systems, not only initially but they have all run as long as I have used them, without ever breaking down.
    The 6670 model uses very little power (under 70 watts) and as such doesn't stress your computer's power supply, need a separate power connection, nor make a lot of fan noise. 
    It's not the fastest card made for 3D gaming, but it's inexpensive and excellent for Photoshop.  No matter what you choose, you should get a card that scores over 500 on the Passmark GPU benchmark, ideally over 1000:  http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/
    The ATI Catalyst display driver implementations for the 4670/5670/6670 line of cards have been good and solid.
    1 GB of on-card memory seems to be a good size, even for editing a lot of images, and GDDR5 memory provides faster access than DDR3.
    You should know that besides using Photoshop heavily, I also develop OpenGL-based software as well, so I have some additional insight into driver implementations.

  • How to Install Nvidia Quadro 4000 in Dell R710

    Hi All,
    I have read a lot about installing the Nvidia Quadro PCIe x16 card in a Dell R710.  I know what parts I need to order (Dell GP347 PCI-e Left Riser), but I do not know how to install the 6 pin power cable required by the Nvidia card.  Where would I connect it to the Dell R710 motherboard?  Is there a place to connect it?  If not, is there some type of power supply I can hook the 6 pin Nvidia Power cable and provide power outside of the server?  Any help would be appreciated.

    This is a bit old now, but thought I would reply as I got this working and very happy with the performance!
    In addition to the riser board I needed, there is NO way to provide the power the card needs without an EXTERNAL power supply.  There is a really small box listed on Newegg called "ePOWER EP-450CD 450W ATX12V/EPS12V Modular Juice Box-Dedicated Graphics Card and CPU Power supply".  Buy it and run the GPU power cable from an empty PCI slot out the back of the Dell Server.
    I also purchased NVidia Quadro 4000 2 GB GDDR5 PCIe video cards for each of my ESXi 5.5 servers. Also, I left my built-in video graphic card enabled and it is still primary for my Hypervisor.
    Download and install the NVidia ESXi drivers from their website and follow the directions to install them.  Reboot.
    I use sVGA with my Horizon Desktops and downloaded a trial version of Sketch-Up to test 3D.  They have a community of users who post 3D renderings and you can download one directly from the Sketch-up Program.  Cruise around and check the performance.
    As a side note, I noticed IE worked way worse by using the GPU when Browsing the internet.  Go to Advanced Settings in IE, and the top option states "Use software rendering instead of GPU".  Making that change makes IE work as expected.

  • Expansion Slot Fan running at high speed after installing NVIDIA Quadro 4000

    I've noticed that after installing the new NVIDIA Quadro 4000 for Mac on my Mac Pro with Mac OS X 10.6.7 with the newly released NVIDIA drivers (03/22/2011) the Expansion Slot Fan is running at a VERY HIGH speed (between 1,200rpm and 2,100rpm), if I go back the the NVIDIA GT120 everything will be normal with the Fan speed (around 800rpm), does enybody have experienced the same issue ?, thanks

    Sorry, that I can’t really offer much help...
    Did you install the latest “standalone” driver update...?
    Should be currently: GPU  “256.01.00f03v7”... CUDA “4.0.14".
    The driver has to be present before the card is installed...
    Check your latest Mac Pro EFI Firmware update... should be version 1.4.
    Run a general maintenance utility like, OnyX, Cocktail, TechTool Pro, Disk Warrior etc.
    Restart your system...

  • Installing NVIDIA Quadro 4000 Questions

    Sorry for the obviously silly questions
    I have searched around and could not find an installation guide anywhere...
    I am trying to install my new Quadro 4000 Card to speed up Premiere Pro CS5. Do I need to connect the power cable that came with the video card somewhere in The MAC Pro to get the card to display video ? Does the existing display port support an older Cinema Display, vintage 2008, or do I need to use the adapter that came with the package to light up the display ?

    Do I need to connect the power cable that came with the video card somewhere in The MAC Pro to get the card to display video ?
    Yes.
    Does the existing display port support an older Cinema Display, vintage 2008, or do I need to use the adapter that came with the package to light up the display ?
    You will need either single link or dual-link DVI adapter probably.
    The install guide is right there on Nvidia.
    And all the details that I posted a couple days ago on Feb 6th (Sunday):
    FYI for Quadro 4000 Mac Owners upgrading to 10.6.6:
    To save you a lot of clicks (the doc links to the nvidia product page) - here's the page with the current (as of this AM) Quadro OS X 10.6.5 Driver page shows the 11/16/2010 driver date/v256.01.00f03. But the file downloaded is "Retail_256.01.00f03v5.dmg" (28.9MB) - dated Dec 17th.

    http://www.nvidia.com/object/quadro-macosx-256.01.00f03-driver.html
    Reinstall the 10.6.6 combo update manually is sometimes a good idea (some of us use only combo updates when it comes time to update OS X).
    Here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1349
    From Nvidia:
    Mac OS X Software Version Upgrade
    Make sure your Mac Pro software version is 10.6.5 or greater. It is important that you check this first before you install the Quadro 4000 for Mac graphics board.
    If your system OS X is not at 10.6.5 or later, you need to upgrade.
    10.6.6: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1349
    Use the following procedure to get your system OS upgraded to 10.6.5.
    1. Click on the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen and select Software Update...
    2. Continue to install software updates until your system OS is reported to be 10.6.5 or later.
    Mac Driver Upgrade
    You will also need to install a driver package to be able to run your Quadro 4000 for Mac.
    The driver package is included in the CD that ships with your product. Please follow the installation guide for further instructions. It is also available for download at the nvidia.com driver here.
    Important: Both the Mac OS X Software version upgrade and the Mac driver upgrade must be completed before installing hardware.
    Please note that the downloaded file will be a single file that includes both the graphics driver and the CUDA driver.

  • Can not install NVIDIA Display Drivers

    I have a T61 (7664-17U) with XP SP2. 
    For sometime now I've had problems with the NVIDIA display drivers.  Occasionally my NVIDIA drivers disappear and are replaced by VGA .  I notice this when I can't Standby or Hibernate my system, those options are grayed out.  Also, interacting with the display is difficult..
    I've tried several times to update my 12/2007 drivers to the latest ones from the Lenovo site.  The latest drivers appear to be installing (InstallShield?) but I get a message after a few minutes that "The system has not been modified. To install the program at a later time, run the installation again."  No other information.
    I found out early that if I install the old drivers everything was OK, until yesterday.  Yesterday when I tried to install the old drivers I got
    " Error Code: -5004 : 0x80070005 rror InformationSetupDLL\SetupDLL.cpp (1968 PAPP:NVIDIA Display Drivers PVENDOR:NVIDIA Corporation (http://www.nvidia.com/) PGUID:EFB7D050-CAD2-11D4-B34D-00105A1C23DD $9.1.0.429
    @Windows XP Service Pack 2 (2600) IE 6.0.2900.2180."
    I tried several iterations of installing the drivers including downloading the latest ThinkVantage installer.
    How can I solve this problem?  Should I try downloading the latest drivers directly from NVIDIA website?
    I'm very appreciate of any help!  Thanks, Tilly

    "Should I try downloading the latest drivers directly from NVIDIA website?"
    You can't install drivers obtained from the NVidia website. You'll get a "No compatible hardware found" message.
    You're supposed to only install video drivers obtained from Lenovo.
    If your T61 is still under warranty, a request for service is in order.

  • Lenovo b560 can't install nvidia display driver

    hello i've learned that lenovo b560 computers got 2 graphic cards one is intel hd graphics other is nvidia 310m but i can't install the nvidia driver it always gives the no compatible drivers found error :/

    hi Frost1,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    The B560 with Intel+Nvidia graphics uses the Nvidia Optimus Technology to switch between the Intel GPU (for power saving) and the Nvidia GPU (for applications that requires more processing power).
    If you have Windows 7, try the following:
    1. Restart the machine and hit F8. On the menu, select "Disable driver signature enforcement".
       - Sample image
    2. Install these drivers then reboot:
    1st:   Intel Onboard Graphics Driver for Windows 7 (64-bit)
    2nd:  NVIDIA Display Driver for Windows 7 (64-bit)
    If you still get the error, can you PM me your serial number or indicate your machine type (e.g., 0679-3JU) to check the PC specs.
    Regards

  • Satellite P105 - Can't install nVidia display driver

    I tried completing the download multiple times for the nVidia Display Driver 9.7.5.4.
    The first times the setup would not complete citing "that this computer does not have the correct hardware.." , then the Windows message came up and said that "if this setup did not complete successfully click here blabla" and I did that.
    Now when I run the setup it still stops in the same spot. But now it says that *"the setup can not be completed because this driver only runs on Windows Vista, and this is not Windows Vista." But the thing is I do have Windows Vista!*

    Hi
    > Current Display Driver: Mobile Intel(R) 945 GM Express ChipSet Family
    And then you want to install an nVidia display driver?
    LOL :D
    I think you can not install an nVidia display driver because your notebook is equipped with a Intel chipset and graphic card.
    You will never be able install nVidia display driver and so did get the message that you don’t have the correct hardware.
    Intel graphic cards and nVidia graphic cards are different things so do not mix it!
    Some P105 was equipped with nVidia cards and otheres with Intel card and it seems that you have an Intel card.

  • [Solved] Can't install Nvidia driver: Mesa-libgl conflict

    I just finished installing my first GUI, KDE to be exact, on Arch Linux. Right now, I'm using the nouveau driver but I want to unlock the full power of my GTX 780 with proprietary nvidia drivers. On my last attempt at installing KDE, I went directly to installing the nvidia driver 304.24. After rebooting and seeing some text flash on screen, however, I was meant with only a black screen. I could still type, login and reboot but not much more since I couldn't see. I tried booting into the Arch Linux fallback GRUB provided for me with no prevail so I decided to just reinstall the OS. For that reason, I want to install this nvidia driver in hopes of being able to avoid another blank screen. So far, I have this:
    [root@arch /]# pacman -S nvidia
    resolving dependencies...
    looking for inter-conflicts...
    :: nvidia-libgl and mesa-libgl are in conflict (libgl). Remove mesa-libgl? [y/N] y
    error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
    :: nouveau-dri: requires mesa-libgl
    I've tried looking across the forums for similar problems and even tried to uninstall mesa-libgl and all its dependencies but it just yields this:
    [root@arch /]# pacman -Rns mesa-libgl
    checking dependencies...
    error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
    :: cairo: requires libgl

    :: nouveau-dri: requires mesa-libgl
    :: qt4: requires libgl
    :: qt5-base: requires libgl
    I feel like I might need to uninstall the nouveau driver so as to be able to uninstall mesa-libgl. If I installed the nvidia driver at that point, I fear I might see the blank screen again. Thanks for your help in advance.

    You do it wrong.
    sudo pacman -Rdd mesa-libgl && sudo pacman -S nvidia
    After it, you can decide if you want to reinstall mesa-libgl and remove nvidia-libgl or leave nvidia-libgl and do not install mesa-libgl. I do it all the time during update.

  • Which WiFi cards can be installed in the X121e (AMD E-350 Version)?

    Hi,
    I'm running Linux and the available firmwares for the RealTek rtl8818ce in the X121e with AMD processor is hopeless, so I've though about replacing the card. Now apparently the BIOS has some sort of card-whitelist so the question is with which cards can I replace the RealTek?

    To check the compatible wifi cards you would want to check the hardware maintainence manual of your machine.
    http://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&ved=0CCUQFjAB&url=http%3A%2...
    The pther way which is not recommende is to flash the bios to a unofficial version which would allow any hardware installed in your laptop.

    Hi Mike,

  • Nvidia (Quadro K2000) Driver isn't installed during OSD (Task Sequence succeeded) - HP Z620

    Hi everyone,
    I have added a driverset (HP Z620) in SCCM for the first time using our internal procedure (Importing Drivers to SCCM, Create Driver package with specific category, apply driver package in TS using WMI to query for the model).
    The Task Sequence succeeded, but the NVIDIA K2000 Graphics driver isn't installed (only HD Graphics 4000 driver).
    Looking at the drivers in the Driver Package, this should normally apply since the driver is compatible with this specific GPU.
    At the forums, I can see that some people have created a seperate package for the GPU driver installation using command line switches.. But looking at the environment at the customer, we have never done this and in the past, we have succesfully installed
    the driver for this GPU before.
    PS: The driver for the GPU in my new driver package (HP Z620) isn't the same as for previous models (HP Z220, Z230, Z600).
    Could you please advise me what to do? Should I have added something in the driver sources before importing the driver to SCCM?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Mac Pro 3.1 (early 2008) and nVIDIA Quadro FX5600

    Hi all,
    I am triying to install nVIDIA Quadro FX5600 on a Mac Pro 3.1 (early 2008).
    Well, indeed I have been using this graphics card in this computer already, however, a few hours after installing the card, I updated the Mac OS, and there began the problems.
    Characteristics:
    -Mac Pro 3.1 (early 2008)
    -2 x 2,8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
    -12GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM
    Graphics cards:
    -slot 1: ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT
    -slot 2: nVIDIA Quadro FX5600
    The story is a little bit long, however I think it is important to give the maximum information:
    1-I purchased the nVIDIA Quadro FX5600, and took the computer and the card to an apple reseller to install it.
    2-They installedit, physically, in slot 2, and left in slot 1 the ATI Radeon, the card included in the computer when I purchased it.
    3-They told me that after installing the drivers in Mac OS 10.10.2, when restarting the computer after installing, they had kernel panic problems.
    4-They installed the card in another Mac computer with Mac OS 10.9.5 to check if the card was compatible with Mac, and it worked perfectly.
    5-And finally, "they say", that they repeated the same operation than in point 2 and 3, also in my computer, and this time they didn't have kernel panic problems. So I took the computer at home, ready to use my new graphics card
    6-When I arrived at home, I worked about 4/5 hours with the computer, and before ending the day and closing the computer, I installed two Mac updates. One of them was a security update and the other one an iMovie update. The first one worked, however the iMovie one didn't, it gave an error. I decided to give no importance and close the app store.
    7-Just after closing the app store, it appeared a message from nVidia controller, saying that there was a new update. So I install it, and once installed, it recommended to restart the computer, so I restarted.
    8-When the computer restarted, before loading the Mac OS desktop, they appeared the kernel panic problems, and seconds after the computer restarted automatically again. The same thing continuosly, all the time.
    9-The computer's disk is divided into two parts, Mac OS and Windows 7 professional. So I decided to erase all the content in the Mac OS part and install the OS 10.10.2 again from zero (I have a copy in time machine of all my documents).
    10-Once Mac OS 10.10.2 (14C1510) installed again, I have installed the Quadro & Geforce Mac OS X driver release 343.02.02 again which is the driver compatible with the operative system.
    11-The same problem has occured, when restarting the computer after installing the drivers, the same problem as in point 3 occurs again.
    12-I repeated the same operation as in point 9 and 10, however, this time, before restarting the computer after installing the nVIDIA drivers, I installed the CUDA 6.5.46 driver, and the same problem has occured.
    The key is that the computer has been working with this graphics card, however, the story has turned crazy...
    Anyone has experienced the same problems? Any clue about it?
    Many thanks in advanced!

    You probably read how that 10.10.2 security update changed the build number of the OS, how Apple is still using really old Nvidia driver from 10.8.2.
    So called "Security Update 2015-002" from today will purposely break nVidia drivers! ( 1 2 3)

    Mixing ATI and Nvidia in older versions of Windows was a no-no.
    With 10.10 I would ditch the 2600XT, it is doing nothing for you except taking up a slot.
    you really just could ask and no need to drag 60 lbs and have someone else put a GPU in and attach the 6-pin aux power.

    Nvidia download page for Graphics driver 343.02.02f03 for OS X 10.10.2 (build 14C1510). Here's a clip from the main D/L page tab (other than version info typical boilerplate).
