Graphics card and motherboard bios

i have recently purchased a hp pavillion p6 2371ea, trying to play a game i realised the new pc was not up to spec. having now bought a nividia gtx 650 ti im struggling to get it to work. the machine already has an intergrated graphics card in it. ive tried to find the right option in bios to disable the intergrated graphics card. the problem is the joshua h61-uatx motherboard doesnt have the option of the graphics card and the ability to disable it. any ideas as to how i can over come this issue?

Here are the specs for your HP Pavilion p6-2371ea Desktop Computer. According to the specs, this model shipped with Windows 8 and a 300 watt power supply. To use the GTX 650 Ti you will need to upgrade the power supply to a 500 watt or 600 watt unit. The Corsair CX500 and CX600 are known to fir most HP comsumer desktop computer cases and come highly recommended. The next thing you need to do is DISABLE "Secure Boot" and ENABLE "Legacy Support" in the BIOS. Doing these things should resolve your issue.

Question about graphics card and motherboard

My laptop is a dv6500 CTO. I have the geforce 8400M GS video/graphics card in my laptop. Recently I was playing a game and my computer locked up. I restarted my computer and had a message from Windows 7 saying my graphics card stopped working. I than checked my device manager and it said the card was working properly. Well now it dies if I am watching a video, playing any game it lasts for about 5 mins.
I than went to the device manager and disable my card. Before my card was disabled, I was still able to loud windows fine. This is where I have my biggest question. If I disable my card, than why is it that I can still use my computer? Does the motherboard have a small chipset for video besides the graphics card? Is this graphics card welded on the motherboard or can I replace it?
I always thought on laptops the graphics card was part of the motherboard and if it went out than my screen would go out and that would be the end of it. Is that not true? Thanks for the help.

Iq771 inactive graphics card and no help from hp!!!

My iq771 is dead. I took it to pc world as it is out of warranty and after a hardware diagnostics test they told me there was a problem with the graphics card either broken or inactive.
I called the hp support line and after great difficultly was given an out of warranty repair service that hp utilise. I explained what had happened and they told me that they had been informed by hp escalation complaints service that they no longer supported the graphics card or screen on the touchsmart iq771. It was irrepairable. They gave me the name of the manager at escalation complaints, Grant Cyster, and after many calls and reassurances that they would call me back, i have yet to hear from them.
I have an iq771 that is three years two months old, it cost £1099, and it is now irrepairable. Surely this machine is not fit for purpose!!
Any advice greatly appreciated

hey hope this gets to you before you trash it.   If the machine powers on and you hear no beeps you are in good shape.
There is a known issue ( at least with the community, hp will never admit ) with the nvidia 7600 go graphics card burning out on this unit. luckily the motherboard comes with a built in nvidia 6150 go, you just have to switch the right cable to it. now getting to it is hell on this computer if you have never opened it before.
I will not go into how to remove the back cover in front of the HD and the bottom panel, as HP has these on their website under how to change the Memory and hard drive on this unit.     The real tricky part to this operation is that there are two hidden screws on the bottom right front of the unit under a sticker. the sticker doesnt actually look like a sticker, its the label for the front audio and usb inputs. after these are out and you have removed the optical drive and one screw on the right side close to the bezel, the plastic assembly should slide out giving you access to the graphics card and processor.
You dont actually have to remove the burned out card, you just need to look for a pinout and cable labeled lsvd1 and lsvd2 (not sure if that's the exact name but its close)
which should be located on the left side in the front. switch the cable to lsvd2 and you are done. reset the bios if you have not already and it should come up.    do a reinstall from system recovery if you still have the original hard drive

P6510y graphics card and PSU

I just bought a new HP p6510y Desktop and I really would like to upgrade the graphics card from a ATI HD4200 to a HD5750. Is that feasible and could anyone give any more info about possible Graphic video card upgrades and Power supply units? Thanks

Upgrading to a pci x16 graphics card is posible (I upgraded to a GeForce GTX 460)Yes, power supply is needed. (I upgraded to a 600 watt)
Upgrading the Graphics card has other benifits, it will free up resorces used by the system onboard video as in the utilization of your RAM. (need to change the primary video graphics card in the bios from onboard to PCI-E when you have your new graphics card). Your windows experience of the RAM will change from 5.9 and if using a Geforce GTX 460 to 7.5, Substansial increase in PC performance.
Games played with upgrade with graphics card World of War Craft, Magica, Counter strike and Eschalon: Book 2 with no issues.
Other upgrades possible:
Athlon II x4 630 to a Phonom II x4 955 will increase your windows media index score from 7.2 to 7.3 Overclocking not availible with current motherboard that i know of...
Ram DDR3 PC3 8500@1066MHz, see HP support, have not done this yet, but may run at 1333mhz with a PC3-10600 upgrade utilizing two RAM slots and not three or more?
To get a machine that gets a windows index score of 7.3, 7.5, 7.5, 7.5, 5.9 (windows experience index is an option in teh windows control pannel). Not a bad machine for the price with a little personal upgrade touch.
If you decide to upgrade the motherboard, with a sata3 harddrive and with a little overclocking of the Processor and Graphics card you may get a 7.7, 7.7, 7.7, 7.0. Maybe someday i will try this.
USB 2.0 on front and back and USB 1.0 on bottom back. 3.0 has a great increase in speed if upgraing motherboard.
SATA 1 no real way to inclrease the data perormance of 5.9. Need SATA 2 or 3 and is not aplicable on current motherboard, SATA 3 recomended if you get a new motherboard.
Hell, why not just keep the HP computer case?
HP P6510Y, AMD Phenom II x4 955 (upgraded), 4G ddr3 10600@1333 MHz, GeForce GTX 460(upgraded), 600 watt Thermaltake TR2 power supply (upgraded). 27 inch HP 2709 Active Matrix TFT lcd (bright and colorful for gaming compared to others in my personal opinion).

PCI-E graphics card and system memory conflict.

Hello,
I have a bit of a strange problem with my new system build.
All my parts work fine when used by them selves.
MSI KN8 diamond.
Athlon 3200 64bit 939 Winchester.
Crucial Ballistix PC4000 memory.
Inno3D 6800GT PCI-E
Thermaltake purepower 680W.
The problem arises when I try and use both the memory and graphics card card at the same time, the system does not post stating a memory problem. I know both work as I’m able to post when either is removed i.e when running with a standard PCI graphics card or when the memory is swapped. I’ve checked out a lot of forums over the last 2 weeks and I know there are a lot of people out there running with the same memory. I’ve tried under clocking the memory with no success. Can anyone shed any light on this problem as I’ve never had a conflict between a graphics card and memory before.
Thanks John

Need to make a couple of changes as there appears to be a possible issue with the loading of the Optimized Default setting in the bios, and I quote from MSI:
Quote
After loading the Optimized Default, the memory setting values will be optimized to achieve better performance. It is, however, likely to cause problems of compatibility.
Which seems to be the exact issue you are experiencing. First thing I would do is to manually set your vdimm to 2.8v in the bios. This will make sure that your memory is getting the correct voltages as the AUTO setting usually sets memory to 2.5v. This alone could eliminate your problem, but I think you'll have to comb through your memory timings and reset them, (Crucial lists 2.5-4-4-8 @ DDR500 speeds, so I'd try 2-3-3-6 or 2.5-3-3-6 for DDR400 speeds).
There is also an official bios 1.1 for your board, and a beta (5.01) from the Diamond Club. I'd stay with the official releases for the time being (until you get your board up and running properly).

Upgrading Graphics Card and Processor

I'm wanting to upgrade my graphics card and processor. Now I don't play many games, but I would like to max out LOTRO and maybe some games on steam like portal/doom3/etc...
My motherboard is an
Manufacturer: Foxconn H-RS880-uATX
HP: Aloe-GL8E
I've already decided I'm upgrading my processor to the Phenom II X4-830. Right now I have the AMD Athlong dual core 3.0ghz.
And I'm upgrading my RAM from 4GB to 8GB this week.
The only thing I'm having a hard time finding is what the best graphics card I can get for my motherboard. I've checked all the FPS benchmarks for the ones HP recommends, but they don't seem better than what I have now which is the ATI Radeon HD 5450 512MB.

Please identify your HP desktop with its product name. Is it a Pavilion p6230y desktop?
In the HD 5000 series the 5750 is definitely better than a HD5450.
The HD6850 would definitely do the trick, but you would also have to upgrade your PSU to something beefier.
The Phenom II X4-830 will have to be a Deneb core for it to work with your motherboard.
If your operating system is a 64-bit one then upgrading RAM to 8GB will be worthwhile.
If the OS is 32-bit then you will be wasting your hard-earned money since the OS was designed to use only @3.25 GB of RAM.
Kind regards,

Graphics card and CD problems

Hello,
I recently partitioned my hard drive into two primary partitions and installed Solaris 9 x86 on one of them.
The first problem I had was kdmconfig. I have an nVidia GeForce4 graphics card, and it was not listed - only up to geforce3 was listed. I tried that, but the test did not work. I got an error (something about InitScreen and SUNWnvidia). I eventually chose the topmost option (16 colors at 640x480) and that one tested fine, but obviously, its a horrible display. How would I get a Solaris driver for my GeForce4? I believe I would need it on a floppy (or a series of floppies) so that I can choose Add Driver and use the floppies. However, I do not know where to find these drivers.
Secondly, after it prompted me to insert CD2, it gave me an error saying CD2 could not be read. I burned the CD2 image at 20x (rather than the normal 40x) and it still gave me this error. How do I get past it?
Finally, Solaris has blocked my entrance to Windows XP. When I start up my computer, I get a SunOS blue-background with two choices: the Solaris partition and my Windows partition. Choosing my windows partition gives me an error (saying some sig file could not be found) and choosing the Solaris partition starts the device configuration manager which eventually leads me to the desktop login screen (black and white, horrible resolution). How do I get to Windows XP?
Thanks a lot for your help.

I am having a similar issue. Let me know if you find a solution.

Hello, I have a Mac computer with NVIDIA 750M dedicated graphics card and monitor EIZO but the problem was there when I was working with Windows and Acer monitor. When I open a file from Camera Raw in PS this is smaller than the screen so I double-click with the tool "hand" to fit on the screen, but the picture loses sharpness and becomes blurry. If you magnify the image even only slightly with the tool "zoom" the picture comes back clear. In Camera Raw instead is always sharp. I solve the problem by turning off the graphics card in PS but often use plugin that need the graphics card otherwise the processing time is much longer. I ask for help.
Thanks.

GRAPHIC CARDS AND 10.6.4 PROBLEMS - MAKES CS5 CRASHING!

Photoshop CS5 has crashed on me several times today and *my screen becoming extremely distorted and flickering very fast, locking up the Mac and not responding at all*, leaving me to reboot.
I tried PS CS5 in 32-Bit mode, and it is still crashing.
+That crash just started appearing with the delivery of MacOS 10.6.4+. (Acobe engineers found unknown crashes moving up the statistics and had engineers looking at them) It is related to OpenGL, and probably to a driver update delivered with 10.6.4.
Adobe has found no problems with CS5 and this is a problem related to Apples 10.6.4
This has been discussed with users and engineers at Adobe here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2957823#2957823
We are working on a very important project with one of our main clients - and really needs this resolved asap! This is not just affecting gamers but creative professionals.
Is there any news on this issue?
Thank you very much,
Kim

A business that is using the latest OS, would also be taking risks, and would have been prudent and conservative, having multiple bootable backups to work with, and realize these things happen.
Other than a brand new Mac that doesn't work with Leopard I can see having to have 10.6.3.
As to how long since release to move production up from CS4 to CS5? well, people really detest the IT-minded for their "test, retest, and don't deploy until the testing is done" approach.
I assume "graphic cards" and you have a Mac Pro 2009 w/ ATI 4870 or GTX 285, but your post was scant on that, and it is really helpful to have a more complete .sig with hardware profile to see.
There is a patch from Nvidia for GTX 285. You should be able to roll-back to 10.6.3.

Problem with discrete graphic card and DirectX 11

If I try any application to launch with discrete graphic card (nvidia geforce 740m) that using directx 11 it always crashes.
There no problems with directx 9 on on this graphic card.
There are no problems with integrated graphic card whether application using directx 9 or 11. Problem occurs only with discrete graphic card and directx 11.
The things that i did:
- Reinstall Windows
- Install latest driver updates (I also tried to uninstall latest and install recomended driver downloaded from the oficial HP support 'driver download' web page)
- different options on nvidia control panel 3d settings page
I also tried microsoft 'Direct3D Tutorial Win32 Sample' source code to build and debug. It is failed in function IDXGISwapChain:resent with code DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED and ID3D10Device::GetDeviceRemovedReason returns DXGI_ERROR_DRIVER INTERNAL_ERROR.
Is there any chance that is not hardware malfunction?

@Enegue ,
Hello and thank you for posting on the HP support forum. In your situation I would consider keeping with Directx 9. The reason I say this is your notebook is not a performance gaming machine. It is designed to be fore general use.
Some cards will notice issues when upgrading to direct 11 from a lower level.
Not to mention with your notebook you will want to stick with the drivers only provided from the HP support site. They are proprietary for the notebook and could be the reason why the directx 11 is not working.
Here is the link to your systems supported drivers.

Upgrading graphics card and ram on late 2011 macbook pro?

Hi. I have a late 2011 macbook pro, and I wanted to know if i could upgrade my graphics card and ram for better performance while gaming. I play WoW and diablo 3 and often notice lag and can only run on low settings. So my graphics are Intel HD 3000 which is integrated, and i was wondering if i could upgrade to a graphics card like AMD or nvidia. Also, would upgrading from 4 gb of ram to 8gb of ram help my performance? Thanks.

You cannot upgrade the graphics card on your MBP. It is soldered to the logic board.
RAM can be increased to 8 or 16 GB. The correct specifications are; 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
The best vendors for Mac compatible RAM are OWC and Crucial.
Ciao.
