HP Compaq p6874 with Windows 7 AMD Athlon IIx2 220 Processor

I have HP Compaq p6874 with Windows 7.  It has an ATI RAdeon HD 4200 video card.  Will the XFX R5 230 Radeon graphics card work in my CPU and fix my gaming issues?  Also, what PSU will I need to run that graphics card?  Games that I have jerk and the sound stutters.  These games are recommended for Windows 7.  I would greatly appreciate any help you can give me.
This question was solved.

Gamester417, thanks for the additional information.
I do beleive that the card should fit into the case.  However, I can't guarantee that it will solve all of your gaming problems.
The card requires a PSU with 450W to operate properly.  The PSU in the computer is only 250W.  So, the recommendations that I provided in my original would be good.

  • TS1362 I am running windows xp with all the updates. I have an HP Pavilion with an AMD athlon xp-m processor.  I have the most RAM I can install on this PC (1 gig). I also have plenty of disc space(over 60 gig). Why can't I play my .MOV files correctly.

    I cannot get the .mov files I recorded on my I-phone 4 to play correctly( i.e. no audio, video jerky at best), on my HP Pavilion laptop with an AMD athlon xp-m, OS=XP, 1 gig ram, plenty of hard drive space >50 gig. Just not enough RAM or am I missing something? I have updated all I can(Quicktime, I-tunes etal). Any ideas?

    My first thought when reading your post ( video jerky) is that the CPU doesn't have enough horse power? What is the GHz of the AMD athlon? 1.8 GHz would be right on the edge with video. And where the computer will max out at 1 Ghz of RAM indicates the laptop is older and the CPU probably as well. 1 GHz of RAM maybe low on today's computers but would not be an issue if the CPU was perhaps 2.8 GHz. The audio is less demanding by far on CPU's than video, so that could be a codec?

  • Which Java version to install on Windows w/AMD Athlon 4400+?

    Hello all,
    Until now, I've always run Windows on an Intel Pentium platform. However, I just purchased a new PC with an AMD64 Athlon 4400+ processor (one of those new "dual core" jobs). According to the PC manufacturer, this processor can run at 64-bit or 32-bit, but by default, is set to 32-bit processing.
    Here's my question:
    Assuming that I'll be running this machine as a 32-bit processor, which version of the JDK should I pick to run on this new system? Windows/Pentium or Windows AMD64?
    Thanks for your help.

    Be careful here.
    I went out and bought a nice new AMD64 cpu and
    installed the beta Windows XP 64 bit edition and then
    tried to install that 64 bit Java for AMD and never
    got past the install. Windows kept killing the
    installer insisting it was either a virus or
    unauthorized or some such nonsense.
    After not being able to install other 32 bits apps
    (and I had no problems with other 32 bis apps, mind
    you) I finally removed windows 64 and installed
    Windows XP Pro and Java 1.4.x without issues.
    Conclusion: Install the 32 bit Java if your OS is 32
    bit, install the 64 bit version of Java if your OS is
    64 bit (if you can). Your hardware makes no
    difference if it can operate at both 32 and 64 bits.
    Then it depends on the OS that you're running
    g because it will tell your CPU which mode to operate
    in."Windows XP Professional x64 Edition is designed to meet the demands of customers who require large amounts of memory and floating point performance in areas such as mechanical design and analysis, 3-D animation, video editing and composition, and scientific and high-performance computing applications. "
    - Microsoft
    "If you use only 32-bit applications and work with data sets not larger than 2 GB, you will find that 32-bit, Windows XP Professional is the best desktop system for your applications."
    - Microsoft
    Are you even doing anything Windows 64 is designed for? Unless you're running in a 64-bit environment you shouldn't be downloading the 64-bit Java, whether or not your processor can support 64-bit environments is irrelevent. If you're a Windows user, then chances are you shouldn't be using Windows 64 because unless you require massive amounts of processor power and memory for things like animation or engineering it's not for you.

  • I have a HP Pavilion p6710f with an AMD Athlon Quad-Core processor takes 10 to 12 minutes to boot

    I have a refurbished HP Pavilion p6710f desktop, with an AMD Quad-Core processor.  About 4 weeks aog I reformated the HD and reinstalled Windows 7 Prof and the rest o my software and it ran fine for about 2 weeks then it started taking 5 to 10 minutes to boot up in morning or to restart.  I had downloaded a couple of things and I uninstalled them and it did better, but gradually over the last week it has started taking 10 to 15 minutes to boot up or restart.  With either it takes a few seconds to get the HP stuff in the middle of the monitor, then in a few seconds it loads the choices (Function keys for setup, recover, etc.) then it takes 4 to five minutes to show "windows loading" the 3 to 4 minutes to show the 4-colored windows logo and then up to 5 minutes to load my icons and be ready to run--once all this is done everything runs fine until I need to restart, and then it is 10 to 15 minutes again to get up and running.
    When I redid everything about 4 weeks ago I made an image on an external 1 Tb HD that is always connected thru a UBB Port and this morning I recovered and It reinstalled it, but it did not help.
    Don't think it is the BIOS battery as it doesn't lose time.
    Hope someone can help me

  • Is an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ compatible with windows 8.1 64bit?

    I have an older build with an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ processor.  I have been reading about Win 8.1 64 bit compatibility issues regarding certain AMD processors.  My question is...
    Looking at my system information under processor, it shows  "cx16 CMPXCHG16b instruction" in the details.  From what I have read, the problem with older AMDs is that they are missing the CMPXCHG16b instruction set.  Given the info
    above would it be safe to say that my processor will be able to run the 64bit version of Windows 8.1?
    Any info on this subject would be greatly appreciated.
    -Nick

    Hi Nick,
    Yes, as you know, to install a 64-bit OS on a 64-bit PC, your processor needs to support CMPXCHG16b, PrefetchW, and LAHF/SAHF.
    There are some other requirements for Windows 8.1, please read this guide:
    System requirements
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/system-requirements
    So please contact AMD support if this model meet the requirement.
    I also would like to suggest you run Windows 8.1 Upgrade Assistant to check if your computer could running Windows 8.1 before you install it.

  • K7T266Pro2-A - system unstable wid amd athlon xp 1880+?

    I have a K7T266Pro2-A motherboard wid an AMD athlon xp 1800+ processor.  My main problem is when I load the optimal bios settings to get the processor at 1800+, my system becomes unstable.  It works fine at the default speed of 1153 mhz.  Anyone know how to fix this?

    Quote
    i changed my FSB to 166mhz
    You mean fsb133 I think, fsb166 isn't supported by the K7T266Pro2-A.
    Btw: No need for apology, better asking here than blowing up your hardware.

  • AMD Athlon 64 Cool and Quiet - not working

    Hello,
    everything is now working on my Arch workstation, except c'n'q.
    First, I searched the forum for information and tried quite a lot of things, yet it is not working.
    The following modules are loaded:
    * powernow-k8
    * cpufreq_ondemand
    As for the daemons:
    * acpid
    * cpufreqd
    The CPU is always up running at full speed. In other distros I was used to daemons like powernowd who did the frequency scaling, and so I went on and pacman'ed powernowd (pkgbuild), yet it does not work. Of course c'n'q is enabled in BIOS. Btw, I also tried athcool.
    I'd be glad for any help.

  • Windows 8 64bit not compatible w/ AMD Athlon 64 processor and/or ASUS A8N-SLI motherboard.

           Why should I have to go through a plethora of troubleshooting techniques, then have to settle for using the Windows 8/ 32bit install CD, when I have a 64bit system?  I think it's probably something in the Windows
    8 /64bit code that causes it to fail install w/ AMD Athlon 64bit processor, and/or my ASUS A8N-SLI motherboard.  After a lot of hassle I tried the Windows 8 /32bit CD and that seems to work fine.  My real question is, why should I have to settle
    for 32bit on a 64bit system?

    I had the same experience trying to install Window 8 Pro 64bit (Build 9200) on an old XP SP3 32bit system, but I somehow got it working; the full story.
    I had two XP Sp3 32 bit systems I wanted to upgrade to Window 8 Pro 64 bit (with the $40 upgrade deal available now). System#1 is: I7 920/Asus P6T deluxe/EVGA 560Ti/3GB/1 TB SATA 300 drive/1.44 Floppy/ 12X Bluray burner (pulled the old TV tuner card for
    upgrade-incompatible). I ran the Windows 8 upgrade advisor - very few issues (TV Tuner card as mentioned and other software) - bought the upgrade. Downloaded the upgrade from my Win7Pro 64bit system to obtain the 64bit ISO (2.69GB) - burned to DVD. Installed
    from DVD; no problems, finished in under 20 minutes - working great (really fast boot!).
    System#2 is: Opteron 180/Asus A8N-E/EVGA 275GTX/2GB/1 TB SATA 300 drive/ 1.44 Floppy/ 16X DVD RW burner; the Windows 8 upgrade advisor - more incompatible software than system#1, but no incompatible hardware. I had read a number of blogs concerning the issues
    others were having with the upgrade failing, so before I purchased, I thought I would run the 64bit install DVD I had (known to work on the other system) to see if it worked. I should note this system was not-in-use and thus I was not worried if the install
    failed (I'd just be annoyed!). Ran the install from the DVD; initial splash screen - no spinning dots - waited 15 minutes (by which time no activity on DVD or hard drive) - failure. Rebooted - entered bios (1010) - tried many combinations of settings up to
    disabling nearly everything (NVRAID, Legacy USB, Floppy, Audio97- all disabled / moved SATA into every slot (1-4) / tried SATA 150 and SATA 300 (SATA2, slots 3-4) - no change - failure X4 attempts. Now original XP3 installation is corrupted (GRRRR!) - I should
    have imaged the drive BEFORE - oh well. Read more about others experience with this seemingly NForce board-related issue. Plan B - I will try install with an IDE (PATA) hard drive (80GB) - failure. Read more - some mention Window 8 installer not "liking" XP
    partitions / disks (???); Plan C - Re-partition / format / check 80 GB IDE drive with WDTools - attempted Win8Pro install - failure. Dejected; last attempt before considering Win8Pro 32bit - Plan D - Re-partition / format / check 1 TB SATA 300 drive with SeaTools
    (Barracuda 32GB buffer-7200rpm) - run Win8PRO 64bit install from DVD (build 9200) - success! Install took nearly an hour, with 3 reboots to the finish. Specifics (install configuration): 1 TB SATA drive in Slot 4 (SATA2), upgraded memory to 4GB Corsair PC3200
    (4 slots filled), Two DVD drives on Primary IDE channel (master and slave), secondary IDE channel - no devices, bios (1010) - NVRAID, Audio97,1394 port,LAN -disabled; USB 2.0, USB Legacy, Floppy - enabled, IDE-Auto), TrendNet USB wireless adapter on USB slot
    2 (motherboard), EVGA 275GTX in PCIe slot 1, no other cards. System seems to be performing well (fast boot times, no hangs), but as noted, no sound (I actually forgot to re-enable the Audio97 device in bios; it was 2am). I will see if I can get the Audio97
    enabled today; my backup is to add a Turtle Beach Montego DDL PCI card (with the Windows7 64bit driver and run in compatiblity mode). Hope this saga might help some others out - good luck.

  • Please help AMD ATHLON XP W/ KT4 MS6590 CANNOT INSTALL WINDOWS 98/ME/X

    Hello all
    I just built my system 2 days ago and I still cannot install any version of windows. everytime I try to install windows 98/ME or Xp I get errors. The computer boots fine and doesnt freeze up or anything like that and i changed the FSb to 133mhz so it registers as AMD ATHLON XP 2000.
    my system is as follows
    KT4 MS6590 (the version that comes w/ the 5.1 dolby digital bracket.
    AMD ATHLON XP 2000
    256 MB DDR pc 2700 ram

    ATI RAdeon 9000 128 MB Oem video card
    Enermax CS3051L alum/acrylic 350watt neon case
    15 gb maxtor HDD
    I am using an old hard drive but it works fine in the other p3 system.
    My case is one of those designer enermax ones that have the blue neon installed inside
    Includeing the cpu fan I have got 4 installed all together.
    I am useing the optimal settings
    I have no clue what to do next.
    any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    Thanks for replying.
    I tried for 2 days with default settings and all the different types of settings i can think of in the bios.
    Finally i disabled all the caching options , disabled apic and windows xp was able to install but took me almost 4 hours to install :( .
    the problem is i think i have bad RAMS I also changed the ram which is pc 2700 ddr from 333 mhz to 266 mhz. Before i was getting some module erros as well as some setup errors. I read that bad rams can cause these erros.
    I would like to know my 256 MB pc 2700 DDR running at 266 mhz . how much percentage of system speed am I loseing?
    Also is flashing the bios from diskette a bad thing and can ruin the board and also regarding the beta bios . has there been any mishaps from anyone using it.
    I like this motherboard but i got to admit its a pain in the ass. esp with all the configurations there is to do. some of them i am not even too sure if i should be using them or not. I am also afraid to touch them bc my system might become unstable and unreliable.
    also is there an led on the motherboard for the kt4 ms 6590 I dont see any. This is my first time building a system and setting it up myself.  so any help is appreciated

    Stay lit, but no way you (can) reach BIOS? Do you know how to clear CMOS? Perhaps it is looking for a PS2 mouse or keyboard, some booting device, or something completely different. Don't forget to pull power cable if you clear CMOS.
    I guess you have checked for visible damage to the mobo, extra stand-offs behind it, and loose connections already.
    If above doesn't work, the next step for me would be to reseat the processor. And next to dump the mobo.
    Edit: Of course, the processor must also be controlled or tried in another system.
    Yes no extra stand offs, and the board looks to be in perfect shape.  came like it is... and the connections are firmly seated. hdd, power etc, all firmly plugged in.  
    happen to know if the 1500+ wprks on the k7n2 delta2 platinum? 
    only other AMD board in the house. 
    *Edit* Cpu seems to be fried, turns out my son got to more than just the old mobo.  the cpu is an amd athlonXP 1700+ based on the numbers on the chip.  and yes it does work with a K7N2 Delta2 Platinum. and no my CPU does not work.  thanks for the time and extra eyes.

Maybe you are looking for
