Elite 8300 desktop new graphics card

I have a HP compaq elite 8300 desktop. Monitor is getting power, but at startup, monitor doesnot do anything except say 'no video signal'. I had a very brief power outage while computer was on. I suspect the graphics board isnt working. What type and kind should I purchase to replace the onboard one?

You do definitely have an integrated GPU. Depending on your processor it's either Intel HD Graphics: Basic, 2000, 2500, or 4000.
The second graphics card is an optional feature that I assumed you have because you asked about replacing your graphics card, rather than your processor, which I think will be necessary if that is what is fried.

New graphics card not working in old Pavilion elite

Hey, so i bought a new graphics card, ASUS strix 750ti oc ed., when i plug it in to my Pavilion elite hpe 531sc i get a blue screen with the hp logo and a text saying 'press esc for startup menu' or something like that. Pressing esc does nothing, pressing any other button does me nothing either.
I tried plugging in the old graphics card, it still sort of works except i cant really play games or get my resolution above 800x600, and install the drivers and all for the new graphics card. But the new graphics card still dont work when plugged back in.
So im at a loss here, is my desktop simply too old or something?

Seeing alot of postings about trying that card. See this thread on a possible solution:

I want a new graphics card to increase my dedicated video memory. Can I do it on my desktop?

It is an HP TouchSmart 310-1110me with Windows 8. I want to increase my dedicated memory. Can I do it without a new Graphics Card or I need to use a new one? In the latter case, can I use a new one?

Hi,
The video processor for the TouchSmart 310-1110me is soldered to the motherboard so is not possible to replace it. Review these specifications under Integrated Video.

Bios freezes on Hp IPISB-CH2 with new graphic card installed

I own HP Pavilion Elite HPE H8 1010cs. Motherboard is HP IPISB-CH2. I bought new graphic card GAINWARD Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 4GB together with 600W PSU Corsair CX600M. First I tried my new PSU with my old GPU nvidia 550Ti. It worked perfectly. But when I replaced old card with new GTX 970, bios freezes on the first power on window. Escape does not work. Should I return new graphic card, or is there still some hope in this?

Hello @Tomas83,
I understand that you are having issues getting your HP Pavilion HPE h8-1010cs Desktop PC towork with your Gainward GeForce® GTX 970 Phantom 4GB Graphics Card. I believe the reason you are experiencing this issue is the the break in the downward compatibility on the PCIe slots was broken at around the Gen 2.1 mark and you are trying to put a Gen 3.0 card in a Gen 1.0 slot. This in essence makes your computer incompatible with the graphics card you have chosen to use. I am providing you an article on the overclock.net website titled The final answer to the controversial PCIe x16 version compatibility., where the author explains what I described and goes into how he made the determination. I would advise you review the article if you have any questions concerning the issue you are facing.
I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

How to install new graphics card

Hi everyone. I have an intel mac pro and i want to install my pci express ati xtx 1900 card into it. It fits in the slot nice and snug but requires the 6 pin power cable to run the card. I have no idea where this is inside the mac and need help getting my new graphics card to work. i know this card works on a mac so how to i do this. please, please someone help. thank you

If you click on the "manuals" from the small strip above, then click on Desktop -> Mac Pro ->
http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/macpro/
There is a pdf. You should also have a small booklet that came with the Pro, and I am surprised the card doesn't come from Apple with a guide and photos.

Help with installing new graphics card

Hi I have a 3 year old hpe575a (hp pavillion)
Intel i7 2600, 8gb ram
Orginally had a ati hd radeon 2gb (not sure what model)
in it
after 2 years the radeon finally melted ( always had overheating problems in the australian summer )
so I bought a nvidia gtx630m which had the same connections and power requirements and connections as the radeon
I csnt seem to get it working, despite the card powering up, and loading the splash screen it doesnt go any further, I can get to the network boot screen or the hp splash screen but no further, and I cant find any bios updates for my mptherboard (pegatron) so do I need a new motherboard? The computer works 100% fine without the new graphics card
Should I get a new motherboard. Or graphics card? which would be cheaper? or is there someway to get the current system to work with the new graphics card? thanks -zac

Hi,
The existing card is an "AMD Radeon HD6570 (2 GB)". I don't know how you can fit a Nvidia GTX630M to your machine because this card is for laptop:
     http://www.geforce.com/hardware/notebook-gpus/geforce-gt-630m/specifications
Probably you are talking about the following card:
    http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-630/specifications
The card should be able to use 300W PSU on your machine (no need new PSU). My suggestion:
(a) Update BIOS to the latest one, please check, should be "Version7.15 Rev. A" the motherboard is Cleveland
     http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=cp-101150-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
(b) Install driver for new card
Hope this helps.

Based on the specs for your HP Pavilion p6-2160eo Desktop Computer, this model has 1 PCI Express x16 (Gen2.0), 3 PCI Express x1 (Gen2.0) and, 1 PCI Express Mini Card x1slots. This model also has a 300 watt power supply which will limit your choice of retail graphics unless it is replaced with a more powerfull unit.

Hi Ken,
Look aon the top back of the graphics card for a switch. See the below image.
You should have received a pamphlet in the box describing the use of the switch (legacy mode or UEFI mode). If your PC has a version 8 HP BIOS then disable secure boot if set. If your PC is not at a version 8 BIOS level then the switch should be in legacy position. The pamphlet should describe the use of the switch.

Speaker problem with t420i and adding a new graphics card question

I bought a t420i about a month ago and noticed that the speakers could not properly handle muliple sounds at once. What happens is that, say in a music video, the music plays loud and clear, but once the lyrics start the background music fades a bit to about 85% of it's original volume. I had returned the laptop because of this problem but the replacement I got has the SAME exact problem.
In case im not clear, try this example. You know the beeping noise you get when you press an incompatible set of keys? ( like g, h, and b). When I have this noise going simultaneously with a song, the song's sound fades a bit.
This does not happen with headphones, therefore i believe the problem is with the way the speakers are programmed.
Also, if I bought a t420 with just integrated graphics, could I still add a new graphics card? Or can you only add a new graphics card to a thinkpad that initially comes with discrete graphics?

I think the main purpose of the nvs4200m is the ability to use three displays (internal + 2 external). Additionally, nVidia has better driver support for games so even though it is around the same speed, the drivers are better.
The shared ram is still used, unless you disable the HD3000 in the BIOS and run with only the nvs4200m at all times.

I have a 2.4GHz DP Power Mac G5(ppc) and want to know if buying a new graphics card

I need an editing computer and don't have the money to buy a new $1500 or so system. I have a 2.4GHz DP Power Mac G5 (ppc) and want to know if it would be worth buying a new graphics card and more RAM. I'm looking at around a $300 or so upgrade. I am saving for a new computer but need a computer to edit videos for a job I have NOW. I am currently editing on a intel core duo laptop with 6 G of RAM, the computer is taking a real beating and would also like to know if the upgrade would make the G5 run faster than the laptop I am using now.

Hello,
It won't make the G5 run much faster, but we need more info please.

How much better is the new Graphic Card?

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

Hey all, I have the P7-1459 comp and it is good, but i was hoping to maybe give it a gaming boost. But i havent been able to find out if it could handle what i want to do. The new Graphics card would require a 450W power supply and i dont know if this comp could handle it. Anyone know one way or another? Need some help.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Joshua, you are very welcome!
I am sorry that I misunderstood your question. I thought that you wanted to know if the computer would handle the card.
Yes, you can upgrade the power supply unit (PSU). I suggest measuring the existing PSU and comparing those measurements to the one that you choose. I like OCZ and Corsair. They will provide enthusiast quality with a reasonable price. A good video card requires clean, stable power. I recommend at least 500W; 550W to 600W would be even better. This would allow for some future upgrades. The computer only uses the amount of power needed to run the components.
I hope this helps.

IMAC 2007 has broken crackly sound after new graphics card

My 2007 iMac recently had a black screen and has had a new graphics card installed by a local company. I've picked it up today but when I got the IMAC home the sound only seems to come out of the right speaker and is very broken and low, hardly audible, also the chime at start up was like this.
Does anyone know why this could have happened and is there anything I can do without having to take it back in?

Well one piece of advice I can offer is to always take a Mac (any Mac) to an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) or an Apple Store. If you took it somewhere that is not an AASP you never know the level of service you are getting. I would be willing to guess there is an AASP in your general area.

3000 j115 A11 stopped working after installing new graphics card

I thought i would be slick and install a new graphics card (asus GEForce 8500GT) after i put it in my 3000 j115 A11 everything stopped working. I can turn the tower on and it gives two beeps. Nothing displays on the monitor (it doesn't leave powersaving mode). It is also very quiet like it is not even trying to work. Did I just destroy my computer? Is there anything I can do?
PS. I did take the asus card back out, so I'm not that lucky
PSS. Got back to being able to boot but now I can't get back into bios to switch from PCI back to original built in card. If I try it just hangs after pressing enter to interupt normal setup

I find this thread very interesting. I am assuming this system (3000 j115 A11) is the same as one I mentioned in a post from June 12 (7387A11... Graphics upgradeable?).... and is still hanging out there. Perhaps if Lenovo, or anybody else for that matter, could/would provide SPECIFIC upgrade instructions we could all be enlightened. (In my case I do not own a Lenovo computer but I am hoping to help my sister-in-law with her Lenovo and don't look forward to a major meltdown if the systems are not capable of this, otherwise, simple upgrade.)
Niether of the 2 previous posters mentioned if they upgraded the PS in thier respective systems prior to the graphics card installation (although ala17 "recently" did.). One had issues and the other didn't. If that should be the first step toward the upgrade, it would be helpful to know beforehand.
Thanks and good luck. Post back if you get to the bottom of it.
