Pavilion p6-2185ef - PC won't boot when upgrading graphic card

Hello,
I recently tried to upgrade my graphic card to a 760GTX (I also upgraded the power supply)
When I try to boot my computer with the new graphic card (all powered up including those pci express slots), everything is going OK, until the boot get stuck to the screen where I can press escape to access the bios.
And from there, I can't do anything. The PC won't boot any further, and I can't even access the BIOS when pressing escape (which usually works).
Since I don't reach the OS booting part, I don't think this comes from windows.
I tried to disable the PCI security in the BIOS, but then it seems that the displays is switch to the motherboard (even when I use the former graphic card (which still works fine)
I tried to upgrade the BIOS, it changed nothing.
I'm welcome to any suggestions on how to solve this issue.

Hi,
The NVIDIA GTX 760 will not work in a PC with a version 7 BIOS.
Open up the Run window and enter: MSINFO32
Verify your BIOS level.  It should be a version 7 BIOS.
There are some specific MSI NVIDIA GTX models that should work. 
MSI NVIDIA GTX N750 TI and the MSI GTX N750 TF

  • Won't boot with new graphics card

    Hi. I have a Pavilion P7-1058uk with a Cleveland-GL8 motherboard and onboard graphics.
    I bought a new monitor which has 2560x1440 resolution, greather than the onboard graphics can cope with, so have tried to upgrade with a Gigabyte GT630 card.
    When I startup, I now get to the blue HP screen but no further. If I startup with F10 or ESC pressed, I get to a black screen instead. Either way, I am invited to press Esc to enter startup but pressing the key has no impact and the computer just hangs. There is a repeated cycle of very quiet clicks which sounds like the HDD drive trying to start then stopping
    If I remove the graphics card and connect the monitor back to the onboard graphics then all is well again (but restricted to 1920x1080 resolution).
    Perhaps stupidly I assumed it was an issue with the power supply (300W) and not enough residual oomph to run the HDD. But having upgraded that to 650W it makes no difference. I also tried downloading NVidia drivers but it won't let me install them because I can only get the computer to work without the graphics card, and Nvidia won't install because it can't detect the hardware.
    Any ideas/help would be much appreciated.

    OK thanks. This card doesnt require a six pin connector but it is interesting that your comment implies that those that do still take power from the motherboard but topped up with the six pin connector. As opposed to taking all power from the six pin connector and nothing from the motherboard. I am not making a statement that equates to your analogy. All cards plugged into a motherboard I/O internal slot are powered by the motherboards power distribution subsystem.  
    One last question - should I have uninstalled the graphics driver for the integrated graphics or is that unnecessary? I have read that the motherboard turns the integrated graphics off when it detects a dedicated card.  I have not done so and am a little wary of uninstalling the existing driver in case things still dont work and it gets tricky to revert back to where I am now.
    Andrew
    No. You won't need to uninstall the driver for the integrated graphics. The OS will only load the driver for the graphics card when one is installed.

  • H9-1130 Won't boot after new graphics card install.

    Alright, here we go. 
    I recently bought an EVGA 750 superclocked for my PC. The first time I installed it, I got a black screen. Popped in the old GPU and checked the BIOS. Ended up updating it. 
    Now, here's the interesting part: I install the EVGA back into my computer, and it ends up getting stuck at the HP boot logo. I went to another thread on this site regarding pretty much the same question, and the people there recommended checking the PSU and the graphics card. Well, I brought my GPU to a friend to plug into his computer, and it booted up just fine. I did check my PSU aswell, and all seems to be fine there. So, yeah, any suggestions on how I can get this card to work on my mobo? 
     SPECS: 
    AMD FX-8120
    (old) GPU: AMD 7670
    (new) GPU: EVGA 750 1gb Superclocked
    PSU: HP 650w
    mobo: Gigabyte 2AC8

    Hi,
    I have no suggestions on how to get the EVGA GTX 750 to work in a HP PC that has a legacy version 7 bios (non-UEFI).
    I do have one suggestion: Contact EVGA and ask for a remendy other than replacing the motherboard or buying a new PC. Don't expect HP to provide a version 8 UEFI BIOS update for your PC.  HP didn't start producing UEFI BIOS consumer desktop PCs until the middle of October 2012.
    You might try Sapphire as they offer both NVIDIA and AMD graphics that are designated UEFI and those that are not designated UEFI.  You need a card that is non-UEFI designated.

  • Pavilion G2-b27SA Laptop Won't Boot - Fan Whirs and Hard Disk Light Comes On but Nothing Else

    Hi
    My Pavilion G2-b27SA laptop won't boot. The fan whirs, the hard disk and wirless lights come on but nothing happens on-screen and the fan goes quiet after a couple of seconds (to a low whir).
    I've gone through and tried the solutions in this thread - http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-e-g​-Windows-8/Laptop-will-not-turn-on/td-p/102825 - with no luck. Specifically, I've tried a hard reset and hitting F10 when the laptop tries to boot. Neither has had any effect.
    Is there anything else I can try to get the computer working again? If I take it to a laptop repair shop (I'm out of warranty) will they be able to do anything, or is it effectively dead now? 
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    The laptop can always be fixed if you have a bottomless wallet. On a no-start with flashing lights it is likely the motherboard and a motherboard replacement if you have the shop buy the board and bill you for labor will be about $300 give or take 25%. Before we give up, it could be bad memory or a few other less expensive things. Assuming they do not charge too much just to diagnose it; take it to the shop.

  • I have a HP Pavilion DV5 1251nr that won't boot up.

    I have a HP Pavilion DV5 1251nr that won't boot up. The light at the power connector comes on nothing happen

    First thing to try is a hard reset. Remove the battery and power supply. Hold down the power button for 30 seconds. Wait another 30 seconds. Now plug in the power supply. Then try to start the computer. Let us know if that works. If not, we need to start thinking about hardware issues.

    Hi:
    Graphics adapters cannot be upgraded simply. 
    You would need to replace the motherboard with one that would have better graphics (if one exists for your model).
    This would cost as much as buying a new notebook, so it is probably not a good idea to undertake such an endeavor.

  • Mini won't boot when VGA is attached to KVM -- help!

    My mini (Core Duo 1.86MHz, all updates installed) is attached to a Belkin Pro2 4-port KVM (F1DA104T). I've read comments about issues with KVMs being picky with the mini, but the mini won't even completely boot when the VGA cable is attached. I've used this KVM with other 10.4 Macs in the past (G3's, G4's), so I didn't expect problems. The monitor is a Dell 17" LCD (E173FP), which is fine when attached directly to the mini. I've also tried another LCD (different manufacturer) with same results.
    The mini boots and I first see the gray screen with the Apple logo, followed by a light blue screen, and that's it. The finder never comes up, and I can't even SSH or VNC into it -- just the blue screen. Once I remove the VGA cable (only video - the keyboard and mouse are both still connected), it will complete the boot and launch the finder. If I boot with no display attached, or attached directly to the LCD w/o the KVM in the path, but then attach the mac to the KVM, I see the display for about two seconds, and then the monitor heads into power save mode. When I VNC into the mini to see what's going on, it's detecting two different displays; when the cable is attached but the KVM isn't on the mac's channel, it's one thing. When I switch over to the mac's channel, it's like I'm plugging in a different display. In any case, the computer is putting out 1024x768x60Hz, which is well within the specs of the monitor and KVM.
    I installed SwitchresX and under VNC retrieved the DDC info. Here's what I have for when it's plugged into the KVM and on channel:

    So far, I'm stumped. This is a $200+ KVM, supposedly better than many of the cheapies, with listed Mac compatibility. Neither Apple nor Belkin wants to take ownership for this problem. If anyone has any tips on where to look next, I'd be very grateful!
    Thanks!
    Jeff

    Hi BSteely,
    Thanks for taking the time to look into this.
    The blue screen I see is definitely not being generated by the LCD - it's coming from the Mac. It's coming up just after the gray Apple logo you see when booting. Normally you'd next see the finder pop up, but that never happens as long as the KVM is plugged into the mac (and it's only the VGA connection which is doing this, since the same thing happens with the keyboard/mouse unplugged from the mac). Once I remove the VGA cable, it continues to boot normally. If I hookup the LCD directly to the mac, it also boot normally.
    Sorry I wasn't clear about VNC. I'm not seeing two displays at once, I'm seeing two different displays -- one when the kvm is on the mac's channel, and another when it switches away. Funny enough, I'm getting MORE resolution choices when I'm not on channel. The DDC info I posted above is for when I'm on channel.

  • MacBook won't boot when iPod is connected

    I have the same problem as described here :
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4112865
    My MacBook won't boot if my iPod 5G is connected to the USB port.
    If I unplug it, it will boot normally.
    Does anyone know what could cause that ?

    <When iPod is plugged in at startup, the MacBook does not startup; unplugging iPod lets it startup.
    yes, it seems that the kernel is not loading
    <After resetting the iPod and BEFORE synching it, there is no problem. Any type of synching seems <to make this problem recur.
    only syncing music make the problem occur.
    the other syncing works ok
    <Even if iPod is connected directly to Mac and it is the only USB device connected, the problem still <occurs.
    yes
    <The iPod and MacBook work fine if iPod is connected after startup.
    Yes
    <If the iPod is set to NOT mount to the desktop, the problem with startup does not occur.
    Yes, but there are some problems in the boot/halt process.
    something like "killing all" fails and unmounting /home fails (45) blabla...
    and the stopping process takes very very long, about 2 minutes.
    thx robert

  • K7N2-L won't boot when CD-ROM installed

    I'm assembling a new system:
    K7N2-L, Athlon XP 1800+, 48C stabilized in setup
    BIOS version W6570MS V5.0 031803 (from CMOS setup)
    512MB DDR2700 RAM
    Enlight HPC-340 PSU: 3.3V@28A, 5V@30A, 12V@15A, 285W max.
    I installed an old hard drive as the Primary master, WD AC38400L, that has Win95 on it from a previous system.  The jumpers on the WD drive are set to "single drive."
    With an old Mitsumi 4x CD-R drive as the CD-ROM (Secondary IDE master), it boots fine from the hard disk (the Mitsumi doesn't support El Torito, so I can't test booting from a CD).
    With a Sony CDU5211 (on the compatibility list) as the CD-ROM, the system won't boot at all, from CD or HD: I get the "DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER" message.  The system appears to never try booting from the CD, even if I set that first in the boot order.
    I swapped the CDU5211 with a CDU5211 in another machine; both CDU5211's work in the other machine and exhibit the same symptoms in the new one.
    Both drives are detected correctly on bootup and in CMOS setup.
    I have the boot order set to Floppy, IDE-0, CDROM.
    There is no floppy drive in the machine (who needs one, these days?); setting the CMOS settings to reflect that does not change the symptoms.
    I tried installing a new Maxtor 40GB (ATA-133) and got the same symptoms.
    I'm hoping I have missed something obvious; please illuminate me!  :)

    Wonkanoby and I were just saying the same thing in different ways.  He was stating the jumper should be completely removed, and I was just making the point that there is a neutral position for the jumper.  I understand that there is no functional electrical connection with the jumper there, and that it does not matter if the jumper is on those pins or in the trash can.  
    My point about using the MS-6378 to test the hard drive and CD-ROM was that it proved there wasn't something wrong with those or with my jumper settings on the drives.  I know it's a completely different board.
    I like the specs on the K7N2, so I will probably get another one at some point (when my credit card has recovered).  I just got one with an atypical problem this time.  The discussions here of problems with the onboard LAN were what convinced me to stick with the ASUS A7V333 for now; that, and it was $25 cheaper.  I'm not looking for screaming performance ATM anyway, just something I can use for testing Windows Server 2003.  This is about the 12th computer in my home lab.

  • Bootcamp won't boot when Apple Display is disconnected

    When I connect my MBP to my 24" cinema display everything works perfectly on windows xp through bootcamp, however, when I turn my computer off and turn it back on without the display connected, windows won't boot and just switches itself off.
    In other words: If the cinema display is not connected, bootcamp wont boot. This is slightly annoying as now I can only use windows on my desk where the display is.

    Hatter - I was hoping you'd find this thread.  Thanks for your help.
    More info:  Currently there is nothing on the second drive.  I'm not trying to install Windows on it, I just want it for fast access storage, available to Windows programs.   I've re-formatted it a couple of times to see if that fixed the problem, but no luck.
    Obviously, I need to read up on what GUID and MBR are.    Do you think it would work best if I put Windows on the second drive instead?   
    If so, is this the way to do it:  I use Super-Duper to make a bootable copy of my main HDD reguIarly, so no big issue there.  I've bought Winclone to make a copy of the Bootcamp partition.  Can I then reformat the primary drive to FAT to accomplish the same thing as unplugging it?  (It would sure be a lot easier than dis-assembling the iMac again).   Then install Windows on the secondary HDD using the optical drive and Windows DVD.  Then go back and restore both drives.  
    I guess once everything's restored, I would use the secondary HDD to run Windows, and use the NTFS partition on the primary drive for my storage.

  • Replace GT520 to ZOTAC Geforce gtx 750 ti on HP Pavilion H8-1111, System won't boot

    Hi I just got one HP desktop from my friend. And I want to try some upgrade with this desktop, I bought a new 500w PSU and a ZOTAC GTX 750ti GPU. After I install all of them, the system seems just freeze at the hp "welcome page". It say push ESC to get setup menu, but I have tried it and it would not work. At 30 sec with 3 beeps coming up the screen turned to black. Any solutions? 

    Hello @zzero000,
    I understand that your HP Pavilion HPE h8-1111 Desktop PC is giving you 3 beeps and not starting up after installing a new power supply and graphics card. According to the HP Pavilion HPE h8-1111 Desktop PC Product Specifications page your computer has the Chicago Motherboard which has an American Megatrends BIOS. Now according to the HP Support document: BIOS Beep Codes, the 3 beep codes mean you have a memory read or write failure. I would recommend you check the memory modules (RAM) on your computer. Try re-seating the modules and if that fails removing them one at a time until you identify what is causing the issue.
    Please re-post if you require additional support. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Lion won't boot (difficult upgrade with relocated home folder)

    i seem to be having a very difficult upgrade and am hoping for some more help.
    i have a 2006 mac pro with LION on the drive in bay 1, a partition of windows 7 on drive 1 and my HOME FOLDER on the drive in bay 3. i also have a drive in disk 2 which contains a CLONE of the OS on drive disk 3 started reporting a need to Repair when running DU - and this Repair ran into complications - so i just decided to upgrade to a new 2012 computer and move along.
    right now i have all my data and yosemite on the new 2012.
    /however/ my TIME MACHINE drive will not mount on the new computer and even when i try to force it to mound (right click on the drive in DU) it will not mount and asks if i want to initialize it.
    so i tried to boot into the 2006 computer with LION in order to see if i can get the TIME MACHINE drive to mount and no i enter my password and now this computer won't boot and i am getting a cannot boot error of some kind (this happens after i enter my password). i have /also/ tried this with my external CLONE of the OS drive in bay 1 and i also get this error.
    so here are my questions:
    1. i moved some data around on the HOME FOLDER disk in drive 3 and i am wondering if possibly this is the issue. also, this drive was reporting as needing repair and has still not been repaired. can i remove this disk, put it in the new computer, REFORMAT it and then CLONE my external backup of this drive back to this drive - and then place it back in the old machine and see if this works?
    2. can i take the drive in bay 2 that has the CLONE of my OS drive in bay 1 and put it in bay 1 and try and boot into LION off this drive?
    i would like to keep LION running in part because i have a couple of boot camp installations (one i would like to migrate over to the new machine) but also because i want to see if i can still have access to the Time Machine backup.
    thanks for any help as i'd like to get unstuck a bit here.

    All the various boot key combinatiuons should be pressed immediately after your hear the boot chime.

  • Qosmio X305 will only boot in safe mode or when the graphics card disabled

    Hi All
    I am having a very concerning issue with my laptop (Toshiba Qosmio X305). It will only boot in safe mode or if I disable the graphics card.
    Awhile back I upgraded the drivers for the nVidia 9800M GTX from the nVidia website, it worked fine for awhile, but then it started crashing randomly by giving me a full screen of random color then switching off. I fixed this by rolling back to the previous version of the drivers (the drivers that came with the laptop software).
    After that it working perfectly for months but yesterday my machine started crashing and I could not get it to boot correctly.
    I have completely deleted (not just a quick format) both the hard drives that came internally in the laptop and I have installed a clean version (the out of the box option) of the x64 Vista that came with the laptop from the recovery disks I created. After I did the install, it boots fine as only the standard VGA device is used, as soon as I installed the driver off the drivers and applications disk it would not boot correctly:
    Just after the status bar comes up and it is about to show the windows logo, just before login, I get a black screen. I can hear that it is booting fine and I can even log in to windows and by memory make things run, but I can't see anything. I then got the latest drivers, again from the nVidia website and they are not helping at all.
    My system is as follows (nothing has been added, its is just how I got it):
    Vista Ultimate x64
    4.00 GB RAM
    Intel Core 2 Quad
    Like I said previously it is a clean install of the operating system, I have not added any programs, except for installing and then updating the display drivers.
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Hi buddy,
    It seems that this is a typical example, that only pretested display drivers from Toshiba should be used. Why?
    The nVidia drivers are not pretested and they dont have an overheat protection. So for me it sounds like that the nVidia driver has destroyed your graphic card. That means no driver will help you and reinstallation of the whole system too.
    I think the only option is replacing the graphic card. Therefore you should contact an authorized service provider in your country. Here you can search:

    Explain the whole story and then you will see, what the technicians say. If your notebook is under warranty, hopefully this will be covered too. Normally other display drivers you have to install on your own risk
    Good luck! :)
