Hi,
Unfortunately the ATI graphics chip is integrated into the System Board and as such, is not an upgradeable component.

HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook Processor Upgrade

Hello,
I am considering having an Intel 4th generation (Haswell) i7 chip installed on my laptop. But, I do not know if it is compatible. Please leave any helpful comments, including if this upgrade is possible or not (i know some chips are soldered on). If it is possible, please leave places that are reliable for upgrading laptops. (I've upgraded a desktop in the past, and it didn't go so well, so NO DIY's!) Thanks guys.

Hi,
Haswell mobile architecture uses a completely different socket than previous generations. You may use a Sandy Bridge like Core i5-2450M on an Ivy Bridge laptop but you can't use Haswell in any of the previous generations:
http://ark.intel.com/products/75128/Intel-Core-i7-4800MQ-Processor-6M-Cache-up-to-3_70-GHz
Socket: FCPGA946
So far I have heard there is no reason for an upgrade to Haswell from Sandy or Ivy Bridge computers.

I recently brought a Pavilion g6-2205sa and was wondering if it's possible to upgrade the graphics card
thanks.

Hey s1_m0n,
Your particular notebook has integrated Intel graphics only - it isn't possible to upgrade the graphics card on that unit.

HP Pavilion DV6 Graphics Upgrade

Hello ladies & gentlemen,
I'm the proud owner of a HP Pavilion DV6 Notebook. The only flaw I've found is that it doesn't have a good video performance (which is a shame for a having an 720p HD display). The graphics device installed is a Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family.
How can I upgrade my Notebook graphics and video processing?
If you need any more information in order to answer my question, please tell me.
Thanking beforehand,

Hi,
For all practical purposes, it's not possible to upgrade your graphics device as the graphics chip is physically soldered to the Motherboard of your notebook.
Best wishes,

Is there a graphics card that will be compatible in my HP Pavilion dv2000 notebook (model dv2419us)?

?Is there a graphics card that will be compatible in my HP Pavilion dv2000 notebook (model dv2419us)? - This notebook has Windows 7 Home Premium.
- I was looking to take the free upgrade to WIndows 10 - I requested the reservation.
- Initial response was to wait for downloads would be available.
- Just got the message that it is not compatible with Windows 10 because it has an Nvidia Go GeForce 6150 graphics card.
- I contacted Nvidia about a card that would be comaptible with WIndows 10.
- Response was that couldn't recomment a replacement, and to contact HP.
- Does anyone know if there is a graphics card replacement for the HP Pavilion dv2000 notebook that would make it compatible with Windows 10?
...Or is my only option to not upgrade to Windows 10 or buy a new laptop?

Hi there , Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome! This is a great site to get answers and ask questions. I understand that you are inquiring about a Graphics Card Replacement. Unfortunately the Graphics Cards are not replaceable on the HP Pavilion dv2000 Notebook PC. They are attached directly to the motherboard. The only way to replace a Graphics Card would be to replace the whole Motherboard. Hope I answered your question. Have a great day!

HDD to SSD upgrade for HP Pavilion 15 notebook PC

Hey there!
I own a HP pavilion 15 notebook PC, [Model number: F6C42PA#ACJ]. Currently it is equipped with a 1 TB SATA HDD. I was planning to upgrade it to SSD. Kindly guide me through steps and compatible products. Also is there a simple way to just walk into an authorised service centre and request thm to do the upgrade?
Thank you,

Here is the Service Manual:

See page 59.
Not your exact model but very close and the videos will perhaps be more helpful.
http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c04324972&DocLang=en&docLocale=en_US&jumpid=...
Any 2.5 inch SATA form factor SSD will work and I recommend a Samsung Evo 850.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147372&cm_re=Samsung_850_Evo-_-20-147-372-_...
There is a link to all the available sizes on the page. I would recommend at least a 256 and 500s are pretty affordable these days.
Where do you live? Country only, please. I have heard that HP Service Centers will perform memory and SSD upgrades on these "closed" systems but I am not sure where all of them are located or what they would charge. You should be able to find a competent local computer shop to do it. It does put the warranty in jeopardy but the warranty will not be revoked if the job is done properly, without damage to the laptop.

HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC graphics card issues

I have a HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC (Product number: QG704EA#B1A) with an AMD radeon HD 6700M graphics card. Most of my games crash, im always given a graphical error, i experience freezes, lagging and general overheating. This only happens when playing games.
I have done every update Intel, radeon and hp offers and nothing works including bios updates. All my research tells me its just a bad compatibility with the graphics card. Can that really be true? Have i wasted over a thousand euro on just bad hardware??
My warrenty expired already, i had no idea this could happen with a laptop.

HP Pavilion G7 notebook locks up after Windows 8.1 upgrade

Looking for some help & advice here.....
I upgraded my HP Pavilion G7 notebook from Windows to Windows 8.1......and now it appears to lock up after a while.
I have a Ralink RT3290 adapter and saw that may be a new driver will fix this problem but I'm not sure
Other system info:
Product # C2M35UAR#ABA
System Board 1845 56.32
System BIOS F.24
Any help appreciated here.....
Many Thanks!

@cpal
I did some searching for you looking for any updated drivers that might work. The problem is that Ralink was bought out a few years ago, and many of the Ralink devices do not have Windows 8.1 drivers, even from them. Given the choice it would be better to use the HP versions if windows 8 versions are the only option because at least the driver would have been somewhat customized to be compatible with the normal set of hardware in a HP notebook.
Here are a few you can try that may help:
MediaTek(Ralink)802.11 b/g/n Wireless LAN (WLAN) Adapter
Ralink 802.11 b/g/n Wireless LAN Adapter Driver
Hopefully one of those will work for you, otherwise we can only look for MediaTek to make an updated driver for windows 8.1 in the future.
And if you are interested here is a blurb on Ralink - wikipedia.org

HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC hdmi port to hp monitor stopped working

I have a HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC (processor: AMD A8-455m APU w/ Radeon HD Graphics) and for the past year been using it with an external HP 20wm monitor by way of HDMI to VGA cord. On March 1st 2015 I turned on my laptop and monitor and it could not find the external monitor. On the monitor it stated no connection found and monitor went to sleep. The cord and monitor work with my sons laptop so I know they're not the problem. Went to Screen Resolution and tried to detect and nothing. Having rolled back the driver (7600G) and no difference I updated it back again. I took the computer back to a restore point on Feb 26th and the outcome was the same it does not work. I would appreciate any help that can be put forward so this issue can be resolved.
Thanks,
Tom

HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC 15-p001TX. Not able to run or update NVIDIA GeForce.

I purchased HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC 15-p001TX on 29-08-2014.
Product details :
4th gen Intel i5-4210U Processor(1.7 GHz)
4GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 830M 2GB Graphics
Source :- Pavilion 15 Notebook, 15-p001TX product details
Issue :
A week back I saw notification saying update for GeForce is available. So I clicked on notification and clicked on Check for updates. Since then it is giving me an error saying GeForce experience encountered an error and must close. Please refer attached image.
What I tried : I searched the forum for my product and found this question which addresses some what similar issue. I followed the procedure specified in reply to the question. But when I try to install NVIDIA Graphics Driver it gives error saying my system in not compatible.
I am absolutely clueless about what is happening.
Need help.

Hello saurabh20,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand the computer is experiencing NVIDIA graphics issues. I'll see what I can to help. Right now, I'm just going to suggest an uninstall and reinstall of the driver:
1. Go into Device Manager, then Display adapters.
2. Right-click on the NVIDIA driver, and select "Uninstall".
3. Do not restart the computer. Instead, download and install one of the following drivers, based on which OS you have:
Windows 8.1: NVIDIA Graphics Driver
Windows 7: NVIDIA Graphics Driver
Please let me know what happens. Thanks!

Pavilion zv5343us hard disk upgrade

Hi,
I have HP Pavilion zv5343us notebook which has 40GB hard disk. I want to upgrade it, I would like to know what is the maximum size that my laptop can support and what model will fits it?
Thanks,
Shankarraju S

zv5000 series uses a PATA hard drive (old school). Yours is the Intel Pentium 4 version and should be able to run a drive larger than 120 gigs. You are safe 100% to get a 120 gig drive.; and if you can get past that the sky is the limit. I have seen up to 500 gig laptop PATA drives but they are rare and pricey...250s and 320s are more common and a bit more reasonable. Get a 7200 rpm drive if you can find and afford one as it really peps up older laptops. I had the AMD version of the same laptop but at the time I had it 80 gigs was the largest laptop hard drive you could buy so I have no direct experience with larger drives. Unfortunately, the most common PATA drives you can now find in the market are 160 gigs. I believe you are safe in installing it based on the fact the hard drive vendors are offering larger drives for it and guaranteeing compatibility. Just make sure your BIOS is up to date and that you are running SP3 if you are using Windows XP. Here is a 160 gig drive that will work. You have to reuse the caddy and connector piece from the old drive. Post back if you need more instructions. The hard drive is under the rectangular plate in the corner of the bottom, held down by 4 screws at the corners of the plate.

HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC

Hi...
just a quick question please,
my HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC came with a 8GB RAM so can i increase the RAM size to be 16GB?
if yes will it have a great effect on my laptop performance or i wouldn't feel the deference?
my laptop details are as follow:
Product name: HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Service Pack 1
Product number: B6K67EA#ABV
thank you for your assistance in advance

Hi:
Yes, you can upgrade your PC to 16 GB of memory.
2 x 8 GB of PC3-12800 notebook memory.
Whether or not you will "feel" a better performance increase depends on what you do with the PC, how many applications you have open at the same time, etc.
If it were me, I would max out the memory while it is still relatively inexpensive.

HP Pavilion tx1325ep Notebook PC & Windows 7, Compatible?

Hello there,
I've been searching in the forums but I couldn't find the answer I need before I format my computer.
I own a HP Pavilion tx1325ep Notebook PC and I would like to know if I can install Windows 7 operating system.
If so, shall I install the 32 or 64 bits version?
Im sorry probably im repeating a question that was already answered but I couldn't find my answer and I dont want to take any risk before doing it.
Thank you for all the support,
Diogo Gaia

Hi:
If you want to find out if your PC will run Windows 7, please download and run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor. It will let you know if your PC can run Windows 7 and if anything needs to be done to correct any issues the advisor finds:
Link is below:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/get/upgrade-advisor.aspx
According to the specs on your PC, it appears you can run Windows Vista 32 or 64 bit so you should be able to run Windows 7 32 or 64 bit.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01250469&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_US...
You need a minumum of 2 GB of memory for W7x64. 1 GB of memory for W7 32 Bit.
As to what version you should install, I'll leave that up to you.
Here is a little info on the differences.
