Upgrade nw9440 MXM video card

I have this laptop with: Intel Core 2 Duo T7600, 2GB 667MHz CL4, Hitachi SATA 100GB 7200RPM. The video card is a Quadro FX1500M, but I don't need it anymore, I've bought this laptop for professional purpose two years ago, and now I just want to know if it is upgradable and, if anybody has already done it, wich are the steps. Wich is the TDP of FX1500M? Wich cards are now available for the best upgrade?
Thanks,
Marco.

not real upgrade for perfomance but:
-buy 450484-001 from 50$ to 129$ (arggg i missed 3 time video cards ebay's at 50$)
-256mb to 512mb Vram
-3D2006 mark 4110 to 4916 (+20% is a poor upgrade)
-directx 9 to 10 (great for Win7)
-official nvidia drivers support or HP 10/2009 (last FX 1500m HP/Dell(M90) driver = 2007 = DIY for Win7)
-NiBiTor compatibility
any one try to mod his nw9440 with a video card from an 8710w  FX 2700/3600m or 945PM won't accept PCIe NB9E?
G71 to NB9E 3D2006 mark 4110 to 7660
!!! FX 2700/3600m about 70 watts
P2020 + nw8240 + U750p + nw9440

  • ThinkCentr​e USFF M57P 9071-A8U: I Want to Upgrade The Graphic Video Card

    Hello guys. I currently own an IBM Lenovo ThinkCentre M57p 9071A8U ultra small factor form. I already upgrade the CPU bios to 2RKT64BUS (01/08/14), an Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4 GHz Quad-Core, 4GB PC2-6400 memory ram and Windows 8.1. The integrated Intel Q35 Express video Chipset is great but I want to upgrade it. The system comes with a PCI-Express slot and a PCI slot riser on it. I actually changed the riser to a PCI/ADD2-R Riser V3.1 Adapter Card PCI-E:
    Link to image 1
    I had to do some adaptations to make this riser fit, but the system accepted the riser and all drivers were properly installed. This riser allows to install a PCIE x1 card. I bought a Lenovo 41T2725 ATI X1600 Pro 256MB Video Graphics Card (GV-RX16PIU-RH LVK-X1600):
    Link to image 2
    ATI does not support Windows 8 for this graphic card but I used Windows 7 64 bit drivers and software for this. I connect my monitor to the X1600 VGA port. The problem is that the computer boots until the Windows 8 logging screen and after that the screen gets black only showing the mouse cursor. At that particular point, if I unplug my monitor from the X1600 VGA port and plug it to the M57P VGA port, I can see and use Windows normally. But if I leave the computer plugged to the M57P VGA port, I would not see the ThinkCentre bios screen nor the Windows 8 logging screen. The screen is black until the Windows operating system screen. The Intel Q35 integrated video does the opposite of the X1600. This very confusing. I have tried playing with the bios video section but nothing has changed.
    I really would like to upgrade my video card on my system. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanking you in advance,

    I noticed that there is an ATI Video BIOS Flash Utility for ATI Radeon X1600 Pro graphics adapters which will upate ATI Radeon X1600 graphics adapters to video BIOS S3A67621.109. :
    http://support.lenovo.com/en/downloads/ds000784
    This is for Windows XP (32-bit) only. I am using Windows 8.1. Would by any chance be an ATI video Bios flash for this X1600 Pro card for a 64 bit operating system??

  • Upgrading mac pro video card questions

    I want to upgrade my video card, I currently have a 7300 gt, and my mac pro is a 2007. Will any video card that uses the same type of pci slot work or does the card have to be specially made for macs. Also what would be the best upgrade for my mac, i read the 8800 gtx wont work, will radeon 2600 work?

    Yes, the video card has to be made to work with Mac Pros and I upgraded my 2007 Mac with the 2600 XT and it works great. A version of the 8800 is suppose to be in the works, but a release date is unknown.

  • Upgrading Desktop m9340f Video Card

    Hello,
    I need to upgrade my Desktop m9340f's Video Card. By default, the computer brings a Nvidia 9500GS
    However, I've understood one of the m9340's shortcomings is the single-slot PCI adapter. On the other side, I've read some forums online where people claimed to have attached double-slot video cards (Nvidia Geforce 9800GTX) on my same system. What is the truth here? Is the m9340 single slotted or duble slotted?
    In case it allows only single-slot cards, would the Nvidia Geforce 8800GTX the best card I could get for it?
    What cards would you suggest for my system?
    Thank you so much.

  • Upgrading My Discrete Video Card

    Hello, I have an issue with upgrading a video card for the HP Pavilion p6-2022uk, I previously had a different card in the HP a GT 430 installed but wanted to upgrade to the new GTX 750 ti for more performance checking the specification of the new card with a minimum of 300w and seeing that it did not require any external power I believed that card was compatible. So I removed the old drivers of the GT 430 and swapped the cards when I turned the computer on the monitor turned on and the graphics card seemed to be working with the fan spinning but it would not allow for me to get past the bios screen and seemed to reject the card. So after trying to talk to EVGA about a solution with limited success I was recommended to ask for help from HP I have returned the card but if there is a solution you can provide that would be most helpful so that I can reorder the graphics card. The only area that I have not tested is an update of the BIOS found on your site but the only improvements specified with the update was that -
             Resolves issue with system hang during POST when a touch screen monitor is connected
             Resolves issue with F12 hotkey malfunction after loading BIOS defaults via any method
    These two fixes amended by the update did not seem to be relevant to my issue any advice would be greatly appreciated. So the BIOS is now updated to AMI 7.16 23/03/2012
    Full specifications of the GTX 750 ti graphics card can be found here http://www.geforce.co.uk/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-750-ti/specifications

    No there is just no way to upgrade the graphics. That is true of almost all laptops. Are you still within the period to return it and buy something with better graphics?

  • CPU & Video card Upgrade - Motherboard manual, GPIO switch settings, BIOS update or ?

    According to the HP TouchSmart 600-1120 Desktop PC Product Specifications page the motherboard supports the following CPUs:
    Motherboard supports the following processor upgrades:
    Intel Core i7 820QM Quad Core (C)
    Intel Core i7 720QM Quad Core (C)
    Intel Core i7 620M Dual Core (A)
    Intel Core i5 5x0M Dual Core (A)
    Intel Core i5 430M Dual Core (A)
    I upgraded mine with the Intel Core i7 720QM Quad Core.  The two Quad Cord i7 processors do not have a GPU Video chip integrated on the CPU fab like the listed Dual Core processors,  and therefore neccesate the need for an external video card. 
    According to the HP TouchSmart 600-1120 Desktop PC Product Specifications page the motherboard supports One Mobile PCI Express Module (MXM) socket MXM version: 3.0, type A.
    HP offered the NVIDIA GeForce GT 230 1GB DDR3 MXM Video Card , part # 513184-001 as an upgrade option on HP Touchsmart 600's, one would assume you could simply purchase this video card, and with either of these "supported" CPUs Intel Core i7 820QM Quad Core or Intel Core i7 720QM Quad Core and you would be in business, but NOOOO, it does not work! 
    I tried it on mine, using the Intel Core i7 720QM Quad Core and HP NVIDIA GeForce GT 230 1GB DDR3 MXM Video Card.  The display cycles through various colors, but does not actually provide a usable display.  I can tell the system does boot into Windows 7 (you can hear it) , but you cannot see anything. 
    There's a bank of DIP switches on the motherboard labled GPIO, which I'd assume is Graphics Processor Input Output, and perhaps there's a switch combo to switch from the Intel CPU/GPU to the MXM slot GPU??? i
    I'm unable to find anywhere a manual on the Pentragram motherboard, this may tell how to set said GPIO dip switch if that's what needs to happen? 
    HP HELP!!!  Your site says the HP Touchsmart is upgradable to the above Intel Quad Core i7 and MXM Video card, BUT HOW?????

    Hi,
    I suspect the NVIDIA GTX 760 that you are using is expecting a different BIOS level in the motherboard.  Most of the NVIDIA 760s that have experienced compatibility issues pretty much have been with HP motherboards that don't have version 8 or 80 BIOS level.  The HPE h8-1075UK only has a version 7 BIOS level.
    MSI has two "N" model NVIDIA GTX  750 and 750 TI graphic cards that have a switch to allow compatibility with legacy and UEFI BIOS PCs.

  • Video cards currently availble for 07 Mac Pro?

    Hi,
    I got the "stock" card with my 2007 Mac pro. I never upgraded. What video cards are currently available for an upgrade that include dual DVI ports? I'm going to be upgrading to get better graphic quality when gaming under XP (32-bit).
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

    There is no perfect single card for OpenGL (and CL for Snow), and for running games.
    A Radeon 48xx would be ideal, or a pair of 3870s maybe. But see if these help

  • 848P Neo-V video cards

    G'Day Everyone,
    I want to upgrade my sons video card but i can't find any info about supported AGP VGA Card list for this motherboard.
    Can anyone help me please.

     This is MSI tested list for the MB. Not all cards that would work are in the list, just ones that were tested years ago on that MB.
     http://www.msi.com/uploads/test_report/TR1_582.pdf
      From this info you can find a possible supported card from list of retired MSI cards.
    One AGP slot supports 8x/4x at 0.8V (AGP 3.0) or 4x at 1.5V (3.3V not supported).

  • KM2M - RAM & Video card...?

    Hey I have KM2M series motherboard (via km266 if that helps) and i'm looking to upgrade RAM and video card.
    I'm looking at 512MB of pc3200 ddr400 memory, but I see that the motherboard likes 2100. If I use 3200 or even 2700 will the RAM clock down to the required speed? Basically, will I be screwed if I buy 3200 or 2700, or should I just buy 2100? I've seen posts where people have had trouble with 2700 and 3200 but could that be that the RAM wasn't the exact same (brand)? Please advise what I should buy that will work...
    Second question: I'm looking at getting a Radeon 9600SE card (it's cheap and has a fan onboard), but i'm just worried about power issues. My power supply is 300watt, will that do for what I need?
    Thanks in advanced!

    My old pc had that motherboard (KM2M), well it's a very good board, but it doesn't have what you're looking for: great specifications.
    1.Ram: you can use PC 3200, but this card only suppports PC 2100 (133 FSB), I was using PC 2700 but I was doing overclocking: FSB 150, so the Ram worked ok, because it was supposed to work at 166 Mhz. So you can get more Ram, but knowing that this board it's not goin to use the additional speed. And yes the RAM will clock down to the required speed. Kingstom are ok, and also Samsumg, Crucial or Corsair.
    2.Vid card: Yo should really think about upgrading your mobo if you are going to buy a high end video card (9600, well it's SE version, but it's a 8 x card), so this board doesn't support AGP 8x, it supports only 4x, so, you can use it aldo, but you're not going to obtain what you from a card like this (I was using a Geforce 3 Ti 200 and it was really fine: 4x).
    So, another problem is your PSU: 300 w it's obviosly very weak for those high end devices: PC 3200 and Ati 9600. So you could try changing the whole thing: motherboard, PSU, vid card, and RAM: only if you have the budget and if you want to obtain a high end PC.
    It's up to you!
    And also if you're not going to change te PSU please publish the PSU sepecs: +12v=12a
    +3.3=20a

  • Upgrade video card HP touchSmart 600 PC - 1350

    Here are the specs for your HP TouchSmart 600-1350 Desktop Computer. Your computer uses Intel integrated graphics and has a MXM 3.0 graphics expansion socket. This is not a standard desktop retail card. You can upgrade your graphics but it is going to be expensive, difficult, and still may not work.

    Actually the answer is YES, GPU is not integrated on the motherboard, it is a removable standard MXM format GPU.

  • Upgrade video card Touch smart 600

      HP touchsmart600-1390 I would like to upgrade the video card.  Is this possible/ and do i have to upgrade the power supply as well?   The present card is GT 230 Invidia 1GB memory.  Thanks!

    Hello @Enterprise1,
    I understand that you are looking to upgrade the graphics card in your HP TouchSmart 600-1390 Desktop PC and are wondering if you need to upgrade your power supply as well.  I do not believe that you will have any issues with your power supply as your current graphics card is a PCIe nVidia GeForce GT 230 1GB (Scorpius) graphics card. According to the HP TouchSmart 600-1390 Desktop PC Product Specifications page you have a 150W (100V-240V) power supply and according to the wikipedia page Mobile PCI Express Module, which illustrates the power requirements of a MXM graphics card your current power supply is more than sufficient to power any MXM graphics card you my purchase.
    I hope this help. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Upgrading Video Card in the iMac

    I've been very confused by what I have read on so many discussion groups. Is the video card in the 2.8 Mhz, duo core, Intel based iMac upgradeable? I know there is a standard plug in card, MXM, but am not sure if the 2400 ATI card I have in the iMac can be upgraded. I am sure it is a chore to access the innards of the iMac.

    YC73, you can familiarize yourself with Apple's policies;Sales and Refund Policy. The link is to the US online store, but the policy is consistent, allowing for local laws, throughout the world.
    As you can see from the policy, a built to order iMac is not returnable in the first 14 days, as a standard model would be. It is my understanding that something as simple as a RAM upgrade makes the Mac BTO.
    As a BTO, the Mac is subject to the Apple Manufacturer's Warranty. It is repaired or replaced at Apple's discretion. It is reported by other's in the forums with experience, that Apple traditionally replaces a machine if it is repaired three times.
    I hope this answers your question.
