Issue installing video card on S5-1414

Before I start I want to let it be known this system is out of warranty, so I am not worried about voiding warranties.
That said.
I came into position of a HP S5-1414, the case was smashed, however the motherboard (Joshua H61) was in perfect order.
I installed it in an other case, put a Antec TP-750 Blue PSU, 2 4 gig Corsair Vengence DDR 3 12800, 4 SATA 3 HD"s and one Samsung SSD Pluged into the Mini PCIe port that the Wireless adapter was installed in. None of those is causing the issue.
The problem I am having is that every time I install a PCIe Video Card (in this case a VisionTek AMD Radeon HD 5450 VIdeo card) the computer will boot once and then when I reboot it (for example I boot into the BIOS and when I chose Save and exit) I get 6 beeps and the Yellow HD activity light flashes 6 times. Now I know it isn't the video card because I can install it in my other computers and they boot fine. I have cleaned the contacts, make sure there was power going to the Video card from the PSU, made sure it was plugged into the PCIe slot and made sure the PCIe ports were active inthe BIOS.
What am I missing or doing wrong?

Hi,
Post the HP documentation that shows that a SSD will work when plugged into the mini-pcie port.  If not, then remove the SSD from the mini-pcie port.
Remove the video card and boot up.  If your PC boots OK then open up the RUN window and enter: MSINFO32
What BIOS level is your PC running?

  • Issue Installing Video Card

    This system is out of Warranty. Not worried about voiding warranty.
    I have been trying to install a PCIe Video Card in this system Sapphire Radeon HD 7750 Low Profile video card. However when I do install it the computer beeps 6 times and the power light flashes amber 6 times. As a precaution I installed a Antec 750Watt PSU (Yes it is sitting outside the case, and I do have it grounded to the case via a 10 guage wire soldered to both the case and PSU, and yes it is a solid connection) and I also have the latest BIOS installed, which is Version 8.19 Rev. A. So currently I am at a loss. Is there a BIOS or jumper setting I missed?
    Any useful help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Six beeps is a pre video graphics failure.

    Your PC only has a 220 watt power supply so make sure that the graphics card is rated by the manufacturer to work with a 220 watt power supply.

  • Getting the name of the installed video card

    I'm trying to discover if exists any way in java to get the name (ATI, nVidia, Creative) and other properties (version,memory size,...) of the installed video card where the jvm is running.
    Thanks in advance,
    Joan

    Definitely not directly with Java APIs....
    2 approaches...
    1. get another external program to do the work for you, and export it to a text file.
    then you parse then text file.
    On WinXP, there's a program called msinfo32.exe in
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSInfo
    type msinfo32 /? for a list of command line options.
    Looks like you can route it to a text file.
    2. Write a low level JNI library in native Windows C++, which somehow finds that hardware specific information from the Windows API.

    As stated, I have tried 3 different video cards, as well as 2 motherboards, both of them MSI H67A-G43(B3).
    We have ordered 2 other new motherboards (one ASUS, one Gigabyte) because we need to get this built for the customer ASAP.  However, we have previously used the H67A-G43 boards with no issues.  We would like to be able to use these motherboards on future builds.  What possible solutions are there for these issues?

    Tried a battery removed CMOS clear and reset after the UEFI/BIOS update? Tested with another PSU? Tried with just one RAM stick in the primary dimm slot, or with just two sticks?
    Results
    1 Stick DDR3 - Freezes in "Starting Windows" screen when video card (HD 7850) installed.  Still works correctly with Integrated.
    1 Stick DDR3 + swapping out CoolerMaster 500 Watt PSU for "Power" 500 Watt PSU - Freezes in "Starting Windows" screen with video card.  Using Integrated video, works correctly.
    This is on an unflashed H67A-G43 (B3) new out of the box.

  • Mega 180 - Install Video Card or Install Video Driver

    I just spent 6 hours at a customer's house trying to fix the Mega 180 I built for her.  
    As I stated in a previous thread, the machine was working fine and then she experienced the BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH.  This is when your machine POSTS, loads Windows and just before Windows starts, the monitor goes dead.  Windows still loads and if you remember where icons are on the desktop, you can click them and stuff happens.  The monitor just stops getting a signal.  However, if you hold down F8 during boot and chose VGA mode, you can use Windows in VGA mode.  The monitor being used is a Sony Multiscan200ES.
    Once in Windows, if you look under device manager, you'll see a listing of Unknown and under that it lists nVidia GeForce4 MX Integrated CPU.  
    So, I've tried the following fixes:
    1) Uninstalled all chipset & viideo drivers, reboot, reinstall chipset drivers, reboot, reinstall video driver, reboot.  BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH.
    2) Uninstall video driver, reboot.  Windows starts under the generic driver.  I install the video driver, reboot, BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH.  
    3)  Figuring there had to be an easier solution to this problem, I installed an ATI Radeon 8500 card that I had laying around (I know this card works) figuring that I'll just sidestep the whole video driver issue by not using the onboard video.  Things just aren't that easy because after I installed the card the machine won't even POST.  It turns on but nothing happens.  ARRRR!!!  I try reseating the card, nope - nothing.  I take the card out and use the onboard graphics to make sure everything is ok in BIOS.  I read that if the BIOS detects an AGP card it will automatically disable the onboard graphics but it doesn't seem like that's happening.  So I look around BIOS and there is no way to disable the onboard graphics.  I have it set to boot AGP first, etc. and nothing works.
    I guess the last thing I can do is reformat the drive, reinstall windows, and reinstall everything else.  But I don't want to do this because the machine is all set up, been used for a while, and it takes so long to reinstall everything.  
    My question is this.  How can I either reinstall the video driver so it works or how can I install a video card so it works?  Ideas???

    I'm going to hunt over at nVidia's website to see if they have a cleaner utility (ATI does for its Radeon drivers - rids the system of every last trace).
    nVidia don't need a cleaner utility cos their software is better written!  
    stab in the dark - the vga lead is connected to PRIMARY vga port?
    go to add/remove programs and Remove "Nvidia Display Driver" in Safe mode
    restart your computer and it should boot into VGA mode, and prompt with Found New Hardware. cancel this.
    the nvidia software will leave the install stuff on your computer, usually in C:\NVIDIA. browse to here and find and run the setup.exe to reinstall the software.
    if its been working before, then its probably not a memory issue - it might also be worth making sure the latest nforce drivers (3.13) are installed too.
    oh and customers usually WON'T admit to messing around to stuff they shouldn't - in my experience anyway!!  

  • [DOUBT] Upgrading video card on S5-1414 Slimline

    Hi  I have a doubt regarding the installation of a 1GB GT 530 video card on a Slimline s5-1414 PC on its original case.  I haven't acquired the video card yet, but i already did some research about the compatibility and everything seems to be just OK, the desired video card runs on a PCI-express x16 slot which this motherboard already has (2.0 version) and the power supply (220w) seems to be enough for it to run.  I don't have much experience on this and the only doubt i still have is about the case/bay size, because i don't know if the video card is going to fit on it. The card features a VGA Port, a DVI Port and a HDMI Port all along its lenght, but the bay ive got is maybe about 2 inches lenght.  Here is a picture of the  desired video card bay:http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-530-oem/product-images  And this is my case:http://cnet4.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/r/2011/07/18/960fd710-67c3-11e3-a665-14feb5ca9861/thumbnail/770x433/144a2c61e52662888c08e62ba9972941/34719889_BK.JPG  So, are there different ways to install it so it fits? Or is it just going to fit right away? Should i look for another video card option?  Thanks in advance

  • How can I switch between 2 installed video cards?

    I have an HP Pavilion dv7-6135dx Entertainment Notebook PC, Windows 7 64-bit. It has two video cards, one is a Mobile Intel(R) HD Graphics card attached to the motherboard, the other is an AMD Radeon HD 6490M video card meant for gaming. The problem is that the computer and all the games and software I install on it only pickup on the Intel HD card, not the Radeon. I have the Catalyst Control Center for the Radeon card and it shows up in the device manager meaning the computer recognizes the card, but I can't download any drivers for the Radeon card from the Internet and nothing else seems to recognize it. This Radeon card series, 6400M, has OpenGL 4.1 and 3D graphics, the amd.com site specifically states this, but games with 3D or which require OpenGL, such as Bethesda's Brink, won't play. The errors say my graphics card does not support 3D or, in Brink's case, it doesn't have OpenGL 3.1 or higher. I'm assuming something is blocking the Radeon Card from working or I need to set the computer to use the Radeon card 24/7. Any help what so ever would be very much appreciated.

    Yes I just used HP to install the drivers. It worked unlike the AMD website, but it still doesn't seem to be working. It has all the updates now, but games stil don't seem to recognize the Radeon card, just the Intel HD video card.

  • OS 9 won't respond after installing video card

    I haven't found this question on here. Well, not quite anyway. I've been running a B&W G3 with a partitioned drive for years. The partitions are: OS 10.4.9; OS 10.3.9; and OS 9.2.2.
    I just bought and installed an ATI 9200 video card. It works great in both OSX partitions; but not in OS 9.
    The mouse will let me move the cursor; but I can't click anything.
    I've tried: resetting pram, repairing the drive from OSX, and booting from a cd and repairing the drive.
    What else can I do besides reinstalling OS 9?

    Use Apple Menu > Control Panels > Extensions Manager ...
    .. to find it and uncheck it.
    When you close the Extensions Manager window the extensions you de-selected will be moved to the Extensions (Disabled ) folder. At next Startup, they will not be loaded.
    If you ever need them again, Extensions Manager can put them back into the Extensions folder when you check their checkboxes and a Restart will make them active again.

  • How to install video card?

    I have just received a *Mac nVidia GeForce 4 Ti 4600/Ti4600 128MB Video Card for G4* I ordered on eBay, and am seeking advice before installing.
    No instructions or CD came with this item, so do I just remove the card that's in my MDD and install this one? Any slot preferred? Any drivers or firmware to update?
    Also, I've read that a 300w power supply is recommended for use with this card, but I am unable to locate specs. for my machine. I assume its present power supply will suffice.
    thanks

    so do I just remove the card that's in my MDD and install this one?
    Yes.
    Any slot preferred?
    Use only the AGP slot.
    Any drivers or firmware to update?
    Remains to be seen, but OS X should support it.
    I assume its present power supply will suffice.
    You have either a 360w or 400w PSU in the MDD.

  • How to install video card driver?

    I download a video card driver, after uncompress, i have 6 files as below:
    glx.so
    libGL.so.1
    riva_install
    libGL.so
    LibGL.so.1.0
    XF86_SVGA
    It seems that only riva_install and XF86_SVGA is executable files, so i run them. But there are some problems cause i can not continue:
    1. when i run riva_install, screen displays:
    Enter path to the X server tree.
    If unsure, press <Enter>.
    -n Path [usr/X11R6] :
    Then i press <Enter>, it displays as follow:
    /My_Download/VideoCard/X-GLX-libc5-i386-dyn/riva_install: test: argument expected
    At this point, what should i input?
    2. When i try to run XF86_SVGA, screen displays:
    XF86_SVGA: Cannot find /lib/ld-linux.so.1
    3. I use netscape to view webpage. Usually when i open a new page, netscape always ask me to install cookies again and agin, i press ok, and next time, it still ask the same question, even i press ok for N times to accept install cookies.
    Could you please kindly answer me?
    Thanks

    After run kdmconfig, i have following description:
    Video Device: NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 (32MB)
    Screen Size: 16-inch (41cm)
    Resolution/Colors: 1024x768 - 256 colors @ 85Hz
    Which means the system recognize my video card, i don't need to install extra driver for that, right?
    But how come i can't see picture clearly?
    And whenever i open a new page, netscape often ask me to install cookies again and again?
    Thanks
