  • HP Pavilion 500-164 | What GPU should i get? |

    I am not the smartest when it comes to Upgrading a Computer. Recently i got my self a HP Pavilion 500 - 194 
    HP Pavilion 500-164
    So I wanted to upgrade my G-Card without upgrading my Power Supply and Mother Board 
    I Play games like Garry's Mod and Team fortress 2 , which i can max out but as Gaming progress my PC cant handle it.
    I was wondering if anyone would recommend any GPU's that would work with my Computer.It would be also grateful if anyone would tell me problems i will get when inserting my GPU in (if there is any) . Thank you and enjoy the rest of your day  

    Breezy, welcome to the forum.
    Here is a guide that you should read carefully before buying a discrete video card.  Your computer has the UEFI BIOS with Secure Boot.  All of EVGA and XFX 7000 series cards require the UEFI BIOS.  I am not certain about the other manufacturers.  You would have to contact their Tech Support for this information.
    Now, to find a discrete video card that will work with the existing power supply unit (PSU) is nearly impossible.  They would not be much better, if any, than the integrated video.  Most mid-level cards require a minimum of 400W to operate properly.  Here is a good example.  Read the section titled "Specifications".  I have seen one MSI card that says it requires a 300W or larger PSU.  You have to be aware of the length of the card, also.  If you are in doubt if a card will fit into the space provided, you can make a template the size of the card.  You should add at least one inch for any additional power connectors.

  • HP pavilion 500-164 graphics card

    I have found a GPU that I feel would fit the hp pavilion 500-164 considering it does not need an external power connecter. I just don't know for sure if it would fit or get sufficient  power as it needs a 300 watt or greater power supply.

    These HP How-to articles should be helpful.
    The NVIDIA 750 is a double wide card you you will need to insert a flat bladed screw driver in the adjacent back panel PCI slot and wiggle it back and forth until it comes free then use a pliers if necessary to finally remove the blank slot panel.

  • TS3495 My recent blu ray purchase did not come with a digital copy disc as others have in the past, and no place in the case for one to be either, just came with instructions, so now what?

    My new blu ray disc did not come with a seperate digital download dis, now was there even a place for one inside the case, it came with instructions of how to install I tunes, then magically I would be prompted to enter the promo code and have it, no such luck, so now what?

    Have you actually followed the instructions?
    Did you enter the promo code?
    If you did, were there any error messages?

  • Recovery disc usage with Qosmio notebook

    I had someone re-install WXP without the recovery disc and Qosmio engine as I did not have them. Now I am missing things like Bluetooth, the manual for the laptop, as well as other apps and such.
    Toshiba mailed me the replacement discs. Now I have them. Do I need to do a whole system reformat-re-install of windows to get my old computer back? I have downloaded the manual tonight but I dont think it addresses this situation as I remember. Nothing on the posts either.
    Anyone do this before?
    Thanks

    Hi trvlbum,
    It is unlikely (but possible) that the QosmioPlayer Partition was deleted. Try starting the Qosmio by pressing the TV Button on the Panel rather than the big "On" Button.
    If you are interested in Media Center, then you will need to reinstall everything from the Recovery DVD because MCE is a whole different Operating System to WXP. All data on the Qosmio will be destroyed. There is no upgrade path (unless you go to Vista Home Premium or Ultimate Upgrade).
    If QosmioPlayer doesn't boot, and you would like it, you should install it from the QosmioPlayer CD, then install the OS (MCE plus Apps) using the Recovery DVD.
    If you don't want QosmioPlayer or MCE, I would be interested to hear if you are able to install the other Applications and Drivers from the Recovery DVD even though you don't have the original Operating System. Just insert the Recovery DVD and select Install Applications and Drivers... (that's assuming your Recovery DVD has a similar interface to mine. I have a G20.)

    Hi:
    Yes you can.
    Here are the instructions and you should be all set.
    If you can read the 25 character Microsoft windows 7 product key, you can download plain Windows 7 ISO files to burn to a DVD for the version of windows that came installed on your PC, and that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC's case.
    Burn the ISO using the Burn ISO option on your DVD burning program and burn at the slowest possible speed your program will allow. This will create a bootable DVD.
    Or use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to compile the ISO file you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method of compilation.
    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
    Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
    The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
    Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.
    Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below.

  • HP recovery disc failure with the following error message

    Notebook:
    HP Pavilion g7-1070us
    OS: Window 7 home premium 64-bit
    Problem:
    Notebook failed to start. Bought recovery disc set from HP and tried to do the factory restore (Factory image recovery)
    The first two steps went smoothly:
    1) "Reformatting the window partition of the ard drive;"
    2) "Copying files required to restore the hard-drive;"
    But at step 3: "Restoring files to the hard-drive", when the progress bar showed 46%, it got stuck and the following  error message popped up:
    Copy File Fails
    From: E:/PRELOAD/BASE3.SWM
    To: C:/RM/Image/BASE3.SWM
    I tried a few times and every time it got stuck at exactly the same point.
    PLease help!!!! Thanks a lot!!

    Hi,
    Assuming this is just a problem with the recovery media, here's an alternative option you could try.
    Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the 25 Character Product Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ).
    An example of a COA Label can be seen Here.
    You can create an installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the correct Disc Image ( this must be the exact same version that originally came with your notebook ) from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here.  These Images are clean and from a well-respected source, however there are only limited versions available.
    Windows-7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit
    Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.

  • Restore Pavilion g6 without recovery discs?

    The hard drive in our Pavilion g6 (1b67cl) failed. It won't boot...it won't do much of anything. I bought a new hard drive, but we cannot find the recovery discs. Is it possible to restore the laptop to the factory settings (including Windows 7 Home Edition) without the recovery discs?

    Hi:
    You can't restore the PC to factory settings without the recovery disks as there is no recovery partition on the new hard drive.
    If you can read the 25 character W7 product key on the bottom of your notebook you can make a plain windows 7 installation media as follows...
    Download the applicable version of W7 that came with your notebook. For example, windows 7 home premium 64 bit.
    Use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to compile the ISO file you download from Digital River. Link  below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method of compilation.
    http://download.cnet.com/Windows-7-USB-DVD-Downloa​d-Tool/3000-18513_4-10972600.html
    Use the 25 character W7 Pro product key you have.
    The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
    Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.

  • HP Pavilion dv6 1444ee Recovery Disc Issue

    Hi,
    I created three recovery discs soon after I purchased my laptop..The Recovery Disc #1 was inside the optical disc tray while I was resolving some issues on a Linux distro called Backtrack5..Playing around with linux' bootloader and when I tried booting from the Optical drive (i-e Recovery Disc labelled #1) the PC did not recognise it at all..Somehow I managed to run the existing installation of Windows7 (the original one that came with my laptop) and inside Computer it shows that my Optical drive has no filesystem and occupies 0 bytes..But in "Create and format partitions" the optical drive shows to have a RAW filesystem..
    The question is: Is there any way to get back the Recovery Disc #1?? If not,any other measure that I could take now so that in the future I can reinstall my factory shipped OS..
    Thanks

    You can order recovery media here, or call HP on the phone to order 1-800-474-6836

  • HP Pavilion G6-2320TX - Recovery Disc

    Hi Experts,
    I own aforementioned laptop which came with Windows 8 pre-installed. I haven't yet created recovery disks. It also has pre-installed 'norton internet security' trial. Couple of questions below:
    Do I have to create recovery discs before installing/uninstalling any new/existing softwares?
    Norton now asks me for activation (paid) and I am planning to uninstall it. Will it cause any issues if I try to recover using recovery discs at later stage? This question comes because wiki says 'A recovery disc is a general term for media containing a backup of the original factory condition or a favored condition of a computer as configured by an original equipment manufacturer or an end-user.'

  • Do the recovery discs come with an operating system?

         I was given a Toshiba satellite A215-S4747 a year ago. I don't have a recovery disc and can't do a restore from the hard disc. After putting windows 7 on it, it has been nothing but problems with the drivers and such. At this point I just want it at factory default again. Since my I never had the recovery disc in the first place, I don't mind paying for one, but I need to know if I will have to purchase a Vista OS disc as well or if it will come with the requested recovery disc for my laptop. Thanks in Advance!

    Howdy!
    Not sure why you are having issues with the drivers, but if you go to the following link, it lists all the drives which you can sort via which version of Windows 7 (32 bit or 64 bit) you are running.
    Satellite A215-S4747
    Another option to keep in mind is, depending on how you installed Windows 7, you may still have the recovery partition that discs would have been made from.  If so, your manual, which can be downloaded at the link I provided above, may tell you which keys to press during the boot process to access and run it.
    Worse case scenario where you just buy the OEM recovery discs from Toshiba, they will include everything you need from the Windows OS, to the correct drivers, to the Toshiba extra support software.  It will literally load to the state it was right out of the box.  As such, no, you will not need to purchase a retail copy of Windows Vista off the shelf.  The only kicker to that would be if Vista was not the originally installed OS.  Easiest way to check this is to look on the bottom of the laptop where the OS sticker is with your particular serial key.  Whatever it says there will be what is on the recovery disc when you receive it.
    If you have any other questions or need further assist, please feel free to post here.  Best of luck.

  • Recovery from recovery discs made with recovery manager on g62

    I got the blue screen of death and had to do a system restore for my hp g62 laptop. Before i restored the computer, the recovery manager launched and had me backup my files. I backed up the system on like 15 discs using hp"s recovery manager. After it was done, i returned the computer back to factory settings. Now, im having a problem using the recovery discs made thru the recovery manager. The files arent being read. I tried to copy them and move them onto the hard drive....and they are all saved as .wim files....which arent read by anything. So i have all my files backed up, but that arent opening. How the hell do i open my files that i backed up? How do i put my files back on the computer?

    Hi,
    I've never really used the HP File Recovery system, but you can open an Image file as follows.
    Download and install 7-Zip from the following link.
    http://www.7-zip.org/
    When installed, right click on the .wim file, select 7-Zip, select Extract Files and click Ok - your files should be in the newly extracted folder.
