Connect 2 monitors to HP Desktop (HP Pavilion 500-130d)

I would like to connect 2 monitors to this desktop (HP Pavilion 500-130d), 1 via DVI and 1 via VGA
Is this possible?
thanks!

Hi,
Cables made by different manufacturers may deliver different results but the shorter cables say under 15" should produce the same quality signals. HDMI has different specifications for the different version levels.
I have yet to see any difference in picture quality between DVI-D and HDMI with a resolution of 1920 by 1080. If the color depth is greater than 24 bits using DVI then need to use DVI dual link to keep up with HDMI.

CONNECTION OF SPEAKERS TO PAVILION 500 SERIES DESKTOP

Just bought first desktop PC a Pavilion 500-312ns desktop that came with a Pavilion 22xi monitor and all seemed fine until i realised that the monitor has no speakers or any options to do so .So my question is how can i connect speakers to the desktop ?. Can i use cabled speakers or would Bluetooth or wireless be the better option ?.
Now i understand that to some of you this may seem like a stupid question to ask but i would appreciate any help or advice i receive .

Hi,
It does not have Bluetooth.
(a) You can connect speakers using connectors at the back:
Рис. 7: Back I/O ports
1 - USB 2.0: 2
2 - S/PDIF
3 - VGA
4 - DVI-D
5 - LAN
6 - USB 2.0: 2
7 - USB 3.0: 2
8 - Audio: Center/Subwoofer port (yellow orange)
9 - Audio: Rear Speaker Out port (black)
10 - Audio: Side Speaker Out port (gray)
11 - Audio: Line In port (light blue)
12 - Audio: Line Out port (lime)
13 - Audio: Microphone port (pink)
(b) Or you can connect using Bluetooth but you need to buy a Bluetooth USB dongle & your speaker MUST support BT:

Regards.
Updated: By the way, you still need more hardware to connect to speakers on the monitor because your computer does not have HDMI port.

Connecting 5.1 speakers to pavilion 500-366na desktop

Have pavilion 500-366na where spec says 5.1 spec supported. However, only 1 sound out (excluding headphones) and 5.1 has 3 jacks for the 5 speakers and 1 subwoofer. Can this PC really support genuine 5.1?

Good morning, did you install a sound card or are you using the onboard sound that came with your system?
Did your speakers 5.1 system come with instrutions showing how to plug into the back of your pc?
What brand/model are the speakers?
It's very likely just a minor issue, I recently bought at half price the Logitech Z906 system that came with 3 plugs. It showed where each plug should go at the back of the HP pc I have.
Using pc's since 82. First pc bought 1988. Every day I'm still learning new things about computing.

Add a Second Hard Drive to a Pavilion 500-314 Desktop

I have just purchased a Pavilion 500-314 desktop and desire to add a second SATA hard drive from the computer it is replacing. When I open the case I find four SATA connections but nowhere to physically mount the second hard drive. The drive bay is large and basically empty with the included hard drive mounted to the drive bay cage. There are no slots for additional drives. When I called HP I was told this chassis supports only one drive even though it has four SATA connectors on the motherboard. Is there an adapter that can be purchased to create additional slots or am I out of luck with additional internal drives?

Hi,
Few weeks back, one user decided to go to a hardware store to buy brackets himself and problem solved. You may want to follow his method.

HP Pavilion 500-336 Desktop PC not recognizing NVidia GeForce GT610 graphics card

I recently purchased a HP Pavilion 500-336 Desktop PC and I already had a EVGA NVDIA GeForce GT610 graphics card. When I try and install the graphicas card, I get the 6 beeps. So, I googled the problem and somebody had suggested to disable hyperthreading in the BIOS and go to legacy mode from UEFI mode which I did as well.
However, my monitor still doesn't turn on and goes to power saving mode. Please help. The customer service rep said the power supply needs to be upgraded, but I don't think this is true. This graphics card is not that power hungry.
Here are the specifications of my desktop: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&docname=c04345595
And here are the specifications of my video card: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-610/specifications
Thanks in advance.

Hi:
You do not disable hyperthreading in the BIOS. I recommend you go back and enable that setting.
Please see this document for what settings you need to change in the BIOS when you install a non-HP video card...

USB CARD READER FOR HP PAVILION 500-C60 DESKTOP?

I have a new HP Pavilion 500-C60 desktop computer, but the front panel card reader does not accept the larger Compact Flash (CF) flash card. I do have an older USB multi-card reader with four differing card slots, one of which accepts the CF card. Would this arrangement work satisfactorly?
Thanks,

Hello @shamrock838,
I understand that your HP Pavilion 500-c60 Desktop PC does not support the larger Compact Flash Memory Card and you are inquiring as to whether or not you can install a USB multi-card reader that accepts the CF Memory Card. First, you are correct the 7-in1 Multimedia Card Reader you do have installed does not support the CF Memory Card, but it does support the following cards:
Secure Digital™ (SD)
Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC)
SDXC
Memory Stick
Memory Stick Select
Memory Stick PRO
Memory Stick MagicGate
I do not see why you cannot connect the 4-in1 USB multi-card reader that you have. As long as the operating system detects it and installs it you should be fine.
I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

HP Pavilion 500-018 Desktop PC DVD Drive not working

I have a HP Pavilion 500-018 Desktop PC with windows 8.1. For some reason, the CD-ROM drive has stopped working. When I put a disk in to install new software, it does not recognize that there is a disk in the drive. I've tried updating the driver, etc. Even in the file explorer, the drive does not show up. About the only thing I can do it eject the disk.
Any help would be most appreciated.

How can I replace a 5 in 1 memory card reader in a HP Pavilion 500-027c Desktop PC

I bought a refurbished HP Pavilion 500-027c Desktop PC computer from walmart 2 weeks ago... The 5-in-1 memory card reader does not work... the device manager says that it is working properly but when I put in a memory card nothing happens... The white light comes on indicating that the memory card has been inserted but the computer does not recognize that anything has been done... I would like to just replace the card reader itself... I see on hp support where it is possible to replace the memory card reader (front I/O), but I don't know where to purchase the actual card reader itself... I don't have any specs on the card reader either.... PLEASE HELP!!!!

Thanks that page really helped out alot. And the card is a SDHC memory card. Now I just need to look into ordering part # 713240-003. How would I go about doing that anyways?
I bought it refurbished walmart and it had a 14 day warranty... Is there any type of manufacturer warranty?

Upgrading graphics card for Pavilion 500-314 Desktop PC

I am looking to upgrade the graphics card in my HP Pavilion 500-314 Desktop PC. I was looking around and saw some forums that said it would be very difficult to do so with this PC and I have found a few that said it is absolutly possible. Unforunatly none of those forum posts were from this site except one that did not give much explanation, so I figured I would just ask.
The graphics card that comes with this PC is decent enough to run most current games, just not at the level I would prefer. I am not looking for the most cutting edge ultra mega super gamer graphics card, just something this PC can handle that would be an upgrade with 2GB dedicated vram.
Thank you in advance for any help you guys can give me!
PS This will be my first upgrade I have ever done on a PC myself outside of the ram on this same PC, so please try to keep that in mind with any explanation/answer .

Your system has UEFI BIOS, so you'll need to understand Secure Boot. Then read this to change settings. For gaming, I would go here, and do the "Can I Run It" quiz. Would recommend a Corsair 600W PSU.

Drivers For Pavilion 500-038d Desktop

Recently I got this computer Pavilion 500-038d and it in windows 8
and then I downgrade it into windows 7 without checking the webs whether it suit for it or not
now Im stuck in windows 7 (64 bits) and I got problem with the drivers
i mean i dont have any drivers at all
can anyone help me?
I appreciate any help from anyone..
Sorry for the broken english.
Thanks!

Hi:
It looks like you can use the W7 x64 drivers and software from the below model which has the same motherboard as yours.
http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-p7-1300-Desktop-PC-series/5258500/model/5197677/driv...
You would use the nVidia graphics drivers because your model has a nVidia graphics card.
The only driver that I think won't work is the wireless card drivers there. You need the driver for an atheros wireless card according to the picture on your PC's support page.
So, see if this Atheros wireless card driver works...

Suddenly no sound coming from HP Pavilion 500-339 Desktop

I've had this computer less than a month without any issues. From a couple days ago there is no sound coming from any source (various speakers, headphone jack directly into computer).
I have checked everything, i.e., checked all the external cables, used the Windows diagnostics and checked all sound devices, volume settings, checked for mute etc. No issues have been detected with the audio hardware and drivers.
I've also done a system restore, removed recent Windows updates (within the week), uninstalled and reinstalled the IDT high-def audio drivers and still nothing. Every time I do a diagnostic it says the audio is working properly yet no sound comes out for anything.
Any help would be appreciated.
