    You need a Low Profile graphics card. Just an example of -> Low Profile,http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/... This one probably requires more Wattage than your Power Supply has, though.

SOURCE: low profile video card for HP Slimline Desktop

Upgrading a certain parts in the computer depends on what purpose you want it to perform. If you're a GAMER or using imaging sofwares, then use MidRange Video Cards, like 7600GT. If the space on your Casing is very tight, then using low voltage Video cards like 7300LE.

SOURCE: I have a Silicon Image 164 ADD DVI card added to

If the Intel graphic card is part of the motherboard, you need to disable this in the BIOS. You need to install the Silicon grpahic driver, then you will be able to configure the screen resolution etc for each monitor.

SOURCE: I have an HP Pavilion a1777c with a blank monitor

If the computer is starts up normally other than the no-video problem (that is, you hear all the normal sounds from the computer and the usual Windows startup music), then you probably do need a new video card. According to HP's spec page for the motherboard used, you'll need a PCI-E video card. Don't confuse this with a regular PCI card which has a different connector.

The spec page also says the board has integrated graphics. so you could remove any video card that's been installed and try booting with the built-in video. If everything else is working properly you can use that until you get a new expansion video card.

If the trouble is that the computer's not booting at all even though it's coming on, you'll need to figure out why. This might be a memory or video problem, although these usually cause some beep code if the motherboard gets into its POST (power on self-test). If nothing at all happens, this is often the sign of a bad power supply, processor chip or system board.

Unplug the plugs from all the connections, MotherBoard, DVD, Hard Drive etc etc. Then simply do the reverse procedure.. carefully reassemble..

SOURCE: Change HP Pavilion Slimline s7520n Video Card?

The on-board RadeonXpress 200M graphics is a dog. It offloads a lot of work to your cpu, and shares system memory which ties up the bus and detracts from the memory available to the OS.

The s7520 suffers from thermal problems due to it's size and poor ventilation. It also has a very limted power supply. Therefore, your choices are also limited. If you could score Radeon X600 or X1300 with 128MB for cheap somewhere it would be a worthwhile upgrade. It does need to be PCI (not PCI-E) and half-height (low profile).

Pavilion s3620f has no video and won't boot

There could be many reasons for this. Open the case and make sure the components are plugged in tightly. Make sure the CPU Fan is spinning and is dust free.Reseat the RAM modules, make sure to clean the RAM slots before reseating the modules. If all this fails to give results, but a new power supply and try that, you do not have to install the power supply but can keep it outside and test it. If the MB is gone, then, look to see if she still has warranty, if not ebay may be a cheap answer for the same MB.

Trying to install geforce 100 card in hp slimline 5257

Ok you look for the slot that fits your card, it will be a long thin colored plastic socket on the motherboard you insert the card into machine, If there is a card installed already remove that and insert the new one where you took the old one from, plugging it in will disable any onboard video device, if any. Now boot your PC, it will ask you for drivers at boot up insert the DVD that came with your card into the DVD and run the setup, or simply "point" it to the DVD where it will find the correct drivers and install. Reboot and you should be ready to go.
