HPE-510y

I have the HPE-510y, and I have upgraded the GPU (nVidia GeoForce GTX 550ti) and PSU (Dynex 450w), and added a second HD (WD Caviar Black 320GB) shortly after purchase. A little over a year later, I have noticed that the inside of the case seemed quite hot, so I installed two fans that I placed over the holes on the side of the case to help with the cooling.
While my CPU (AMD Phenom II X6 1055t) has a "max" temp rating at around 62c and my GPU at around 70c, I wanted to do TWO things: Replace the case fan... and replace the heatsink on my CPU. Any advice in this matter would be greatly appreciated. :-)

I purchased my HPE 510Y in March. It crashed in July, needing Motherboard, Power Supply, and Harddrive. In the past few days, it shuts down at will. Some days I cannot turn it on, and it stalls at the boot screen with hardware. I have also done bootfix, used repair screen, restores, updated drivers, and anything else that I could find, including every conceivable update or rollback. Did you get yours fixed ??

Exporting video from media encoder. Half of the video export other half goes blank/black

Hi! I'm in need of help I've been trying to export this video to media encoder for about 20days now. I'm working with premiere pro cs5.5 and after effects cs5.5-
Dynamic link, I've updated the two and everything, every time I try to export my video half willl export and I believe after effects crashes and thats when the other
half of the video goes blank/black, this happens everytime, it's very frustrating and I don't know what is causing this. it actually just started.
it also does this on cs5 as well.
I am working on windows 7 HPE-510y Hewlett-Packard computer

Have you checked the output in AME? I always check that before I hit go to make sure that I haven't fouled something up and that the in and out points are what I want. I spot check all along the timeline.
I'm thinking that you have some parts of the Premiere Pro project that are shots or sequences that have been "Replaced with After Effects Composotion." If this is the case, does the blackness happen in one of these shots? If it does I'd suggest trying to render that shot in AE and replace it in the PPro Timeline. If After Effects is really crashing you'll be able to find out why.
A little more detail about your project would also help.

Icloud inop since update to 3.0

Since icloud control panel updated to 3.0 & iTunes to 11.1.0.126, neither icloud control panel nor iTunes store works. iCloud control panel locks up and never connects to the server to download information although my apple id shows correctly. Task manager shows iCloud control panel as running and does not give the (Not Responding) indication. I have to end the task to get it to close out. Also iTunes will not connect to the store, get a network connectivity error (-3212). Checked connection from another device and it works fine. Followed all the steps on support site for iTunes connectivity troubleshooting... no luck. Ran iTunes diagnostic, shows secure link to iTunes store failed. Report shows iTunes not enabled in Windows firewall, but I checked and it is. Also tried uninstalling and reinstalling both iTunes and iCloud. No luck. Attached is the diag report. Anyone running into this problem since the update?

Blu-ray optical drive no longer plays Blu-ray discs. Will play all other discs

I have a HP Pavilion Elite hpe-510y desktop pc. HP product # bv538aa#aba. Optical drive has stopped playing and recognizing Blu-ray discs. All other discs play fine. I didn't notice this problem for awhile because I don't always play Blu-ray discs on my PC. I don't know if their was an update or if the optical drive has just gone bad. I am not sure if its a hardware or software problem. Has anyone else had this problem with this model. Would appreciate any help you can give me in this matter. Thank You. Dennis

Dennis, welcome to the forum.
I suggest uninstalling the drive. You can do this by going into Control Panel / Device Manager / DVD/CD-ROM drives. Right click on your drive and select "Uninstall". Then, reboot the computer. Windows will indentify it and reinstall it.

New video card for HP Pavillion Elite HPE-170t

Hi, I'm starting to get some screen artifacts sporadically, Ithink my video card is starting to go bad. i want to get a new one, but I am not sure what will fit. My computer HP Pavillion Elite HPE-170t:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-860 quad-core processor [2.8GHz, 1MB L2 + 8MB shared L3 cache]
8GB DDR3-1333MHz SDRAM
1TB 7200 rpm SATA 3Gb/s hard drive
1GB ATI Radeon HD 4850 [2 DVI, HDMI and VGA adapters]
Lightscribe SuperMulti DVD burner
15-in-1 memory card reader, 1 USB, 1394, audio
No TV Tuner
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium
I see by some other questions here several video cards suggested, but those replies were a few years old and those video cards are no longer available.
So, any suggestions on newer video cards under $200 that will pretty much fit and work as easily as possible? Thanks!
This question was solved.

Thanks for the quick reply. I don't have another monitor to try, but the artifacts seem to sometimes move along with the mouse cursor. Sometimes I can scrill the artifacts away, other times the screen freezes.
I do have room for a double width card, but I was looking at the XFX R7 250E 800MHz 1GB DDR5 DP HDMI DVI Graphics Card, which seems to be a newer model of the XFX AMD Radeon HD 7750 1GB GDDR5 . Both are single wide and don't need an extra power connection.

I contacted both HP and PNY customer support. They've not found any solution yet.
Only the suggestion I heard from HP customer support is change the graphic card w/ PCIe 3.0 support.
I believe PCI slot should be backward compatible w/ 2.0 version.
Does it really matter install PCIe2.0 graphic board on 3.0 slot?
My ohter option is AMD FirePRo V4900, which is one of the certified graphic card for the Autodesk.
However, I'm not sure wether it works with this machine.
Please give me an answer.

Hello masterqueue.
This desktop was a CTO (Configured-to-Order) model. As such, there is a lot of information I do not know about the machine. Most importantly, how large is the power supply? According to the computer's specification page it could have anywhere from a 300 watt to a 600 watt power supply. That is a very big difference.
I'll keep an eye out for your response. Have a great day.

HP Pavilion Elite HPE-480t computer and an HP bd 340i 12x blu-ray writer

I purchased HP 12x Blu-Ray writer model bd340i in the middle of last year. When I purchased my desk top from HP in December of 2010 model HP Pavilion Elite HPE-480t I installed the burner and every thing was working fine. Today I tried to burn a blu-ray disc and it came back with can not read media, that was on imgBurn. So I tried the same on the systems burner and it came back as no disc in tray. I also tried CyberLink burning software and the same thing no disc.
I then tried to play both store bought and home made blu-ray disc and it could not read the media. I was ready to blame it on a bad burner but I then tried a regular DVD both store bought and home made and it played fine. I then tried to burn a dvd single and dual-layer with all three burning softwares I have and again it was fine, no problems. Its just the blu-ray media that can not be read or writen. The only blu-ray media I used from day one has been Kodak and never had a problem. Thats what baffles me.
I at this point dont know if its a hardware or software problem with the computer or blu-ray burner or both. 3 different burning programs works fine on DVD's but not blu-ray, Plays DVD's fine but can not play or burn blu-ray discs.
Could it be the blu-ray laser crapped out and the dvd reading and writing laser is still working ? Does a blu ray burner even have to lasers for the two medias [DVD and Blu Ray]???

Let's try another burner to see if that helps solve your problem. I have used CDBurnerXP for years. It has burned CD/DVD's when no other burner would work.

Can no longer connect to the internet on my hp pavilion hpe h8-1360t cto desktop.

I recently purchased and setup an HP Pavilion HPE h8-1360t CTO desktop computer with Windows 7.
I have a broadband connection and am able to connect to my wireless network and internet with other computers.
About 3 days ago I loaded Blue Coat K9 web protection and have not been able to connect to the internet since.
I removed K9 and rebooted, but I still can't connect.
I moved the ethernet cable to my old computer, which has K9 on it and I connect to the internet just fine.
Thanks in advance for your help.

HP Pavilion HPE h8-1230 -- List of compatible graphics cards???

HP Pavilion HPE h8-1230

Service Pack 1
model: h8 1234
Processor: AMD FX 6120-six core Processor 350 GHz
Memory: 10 GB (7.73 Usable)
System type: 64bit
Current Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce GT 610
MotherBoard Description:
Manufacturer's name: Gigabyte
Motherboard name: M3970AM-HP
HP/Compaq name: Angelica2
Power supply: EVGA 500W 80PLUS Certified ATX12V/EPS12V Power Supply 100-W1-0500-KR
Bios version: AMI v8.10 12/3/2012 (the most recent bios version available through HP support)
Link to MotherBoard info: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03353629&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en...
I am trying to upgrade my graphics card. I recently purchased a Zotac GeForce GTX 760 AMP Edition 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 DVI HDMI DisplayPort SLI Ready Graphics ... . I also installed the above mentioned power supply. I installed both and when I went to start the computer, I got the HP logo blue screen with a message saying to press ESC key for start up menu, however the keyboard was unresponsive. I updated the bios to this using this link http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=cp-114777-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
The hp logo screen changed but that was about it. Using the new card, I could get to the first boot screen, and to the hp logo, but then it would stay stuck on the hp logo. Also if I tried to press f10, ctrl + f or any key, I would just get a black screen and nothing would happen. I've read that this seems to be a common problem with the HPE models and the 700 series cards and have seen no solution. I have already arranged to return the card figuring it's either defective or not compatible with my system.
So after all that, I've tried for the last hour to get a list of compatible graphics cards to upgrade my system, and have not found such a list. I've found lists in the forums for other similar models, but I want to be absolutly sure before I make another purchase and have to go through all this trouble.
Any help would be appreciated and if more info is needed don't hesitate to let me know.

Hi,
There are graphics card solutions posted on this forum. They may be hard ro find but they are psoted. It's good that you checked the BIOS settings in the posted HP links as sometimes they get changed thinking that this will work better. However, in the case for Windows 7 it's just the opposite.
You issue is not a driver problem. Check with the graphics card manufacturer for a remedy. If that particular card is video BIOS enabled for UEFI then you are stuck. You can either return the card or install Windows 8 in UEFI mode.
Another choice would be to try one of the below video cards that run in legacy or UEFI mode.

Unable to use Recovery Manager on HP Pavilion Elite HPE-112y PC Windows 7

HP Pavilion Elite HPE-112y PC.
Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium - 64-bit.
I'm having problems with my Recovery Manager. A few days ago it was working fine. The other day when I tried to access either the "Software Program Reinstallation" or the "Hardware Driver Reinstallation" to check something out, both my DVD and BD drives opened and a message popped up saying:
This system does not have a recovery partition. The recovery process needs to use the set of recovery discs you created previously. Please insert disc #1 now.
I did not create any such recovery discs. I don't know how this happened. When I looked at the "I'd like to take precautions" section of the Recovery Manager, the "Recovery Disc Creation" and the "Remove Recovery Partition" are grayed out, but the "View Recovery Report" is still active and there is some kind of report in it. I don't know what the report means.
I did ask for advice somewhere else and was asked to post a screenshot of my Disk Management from the Computer Management. After seeing the screenshot, I was told that my recovery partition is there and in good health and there is a possibility that something is preventing the recovery process from seeing it.
I'm asking around for advice before I try anything. I want to be very cautious before I do anything drastic.
Is there a chance that I can find my Recovery Partition and restore it? Or will I have to do a full System Recovery to get it restored?
===============
I'm not trying to make any changes yet, but I thought I would take a look at the System Recovery in the Recovery Manager. When I click the System Recovery button this is what I see.
Restore your computer to its original factory condition.
Your computer does not have a Recovery partition.
If you want to continue the restoration process, make sure you have inserted disc #1 and then click "Yes" to continue, or click "No" to exit.
Is this going to be a problem if I need to restore my system?

Even though the Recovery Manager software is unable to launch a system recovery, the f11 option may still work as it uses an entry in the BCD ( boot configuration data ) to launch via the f11 method at start-up. Saying that, I would definitely recommend getting a set of Recovery discs in case it does launch correctly, just to be on the safe side.
Regards,

How can I add USB 3.0 to my HP Pavilion Elite HPE-190t CTO Desktop PC?

How can I add USB 3.0 to my HP Pavilion Elite HPE-190t CTO Desktop PC? It uses Windows 7 Pro 64-bit OS.
I can't tell how many or if there are expansion slots inside the case. Is there a reliable source for such an expansion card?

Considering the different options that PC could have been ordered with, it might be there is not an empty slot to mount a PCI add-on card to add a USB 3.0 card. It would be advisable to open the case to see if there is an empty slot. If there is, then THIS is a choice to add USB 3.0

I want to upgrade my video card in my HPE H8-1020 - It is a Eyefinity Radeon HD6570

I want to upgrade my video card in my HPE H8-1020 - It is a Eyefinity Radeon HD6570. I want to upgrade to a professional monitor for photo editing and would like to know what is available?

Jimg-evv, welcome to the forum.
What is the make/model of the monitor that you want to buy. I will provide the information for you, but it would help me to know more about the monitor.
You can upgrade the video card. However, most mid-level cards require at least 400W to operate properly. The power supply unit (PSU) in the computer is 300W. A card that would work for your needs would require a PSU upgrade, as well.
I recommend at least 500W; 600W would be even better because it would allow for future upgrades. I like OCZ and Corsair PSU's.
You would need a PCI Express x16 video card. I like XFX, EVGA, Sapphire and PNY in that order. If you upgrade the PSU, this card should work for you.
