connected to the motherboard raid 0 (blue) When trying to setup win 7 x64 it does actually select esb2 driver from the files you sent me but goes no further then shows the message again.
Under win 10 it shows controller as
Intel ESB2 SATA RAID controller (your file has this in it - win7 setup shows this as compatable but 8.1 doesn't)
and
Intel 631XESB/632ESB ultra ATA storage controller/3100 chipset serial ATA
win 10 has native driver support for all necessary xw6400 drivers no other drivers are required
set the bios to defaults Raid+AHCI mode and boot drive must be under 2GB in size
Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
I appreciate your efforts to try and resolve the issue. This sounds like the windows operating system is not installed correctly due to that computer is not booting into windows desktop.
The last thing I can suggest trying to restore back to the factory settings. Performing an HP system recovery (Windows ) While doing the recovery there is an option to backup your personal files. If you have not previously done one now is a good time.
Restoring Files that were Backed Up Using HP Recovery Manager (Windows )You can also contact HP support for assistance. They can remotely access your system to help alleviate difficulties: www.hp.com/contacthp/
The HP Cloud Recovery Tool allows you to download recovery software to a USB drive. You can use the downloaded recovery image file in order to install the Windows operating system.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

external video card boxes use thunderbolt which the dc7800 lacks and it can not be added to the 7800
you will be better server replacing the dc7800 with a newer system that can take modern upgrades
a z400/z600 or the newer z420/z620 are excellent systems and you should look into them, they are available on ebay in various configurations
last, a simple check of the software vendor's site provides the recommended hardware requirements
https://signalhound.com/spike/ (FAQ Postings. hardware requirements link)
new PCs we recommend dual/quad core Intel i5/i7 4XXX processors and greater. We also recommend your PC have OpenGL 2.0 support. You can check for OpenGL support by looking at your graphics card or integrated GPU specs. Most integrated GPUs found on the new i-series processors will have sufficient capabilities to run the Spike software.
in the future, please take the time to check a programs requirements yourself first as doing so will then let you decide if the current hardware meets the recommended specs (your current hardware DOES NOT meet recommended specs)
Hi..good day.First i would like to say thank you for getting back to me....
Then secondly...there is an update about the laptop.
Somehow...i was able to get it to boot to desktop but most of the softwares are not installed and then...it doesnt boot straight to desktop(when it gets to login,it will show windows wasnt installed properly.... and then i will use the shift + one other combination key to get to desktop..i cant recall the exact key)
Soo...my recovery files of about 15gb are still intact but i cant still get to use them via recovery menu at startup
So all am asking is if there is a software that i can download and install that will manually get the files and then convert the drive into a bootable drive for me to go back to windows
i watched a video on youtube and the installer doesnt need to download from the internet
Hi, I am trying to boot into the command prompt to reset a password. However, none of the function keys including escape allows me into the BIOS. I am using a wired keyboard and function keys do not have a toggle on/off option. I have restarted with the SHIFT key and it won't allow me into command prompt as well as safe mode, UEFI or startup repair etc. I have noticed from 'system information' 'secure boot' is set to ON.
Thanks
Using windows 10 on xw6400 but never liked them. They seem to be full of junk apps. I was hoping to go back to 8.1 at least. Every time win 10 updates it creates more problems for me. Oh well. Thanks everyone for your time.
My wifi card is not working properly and has a very low range, I am planning to replace my wifi card.
What things shall I consider before buying a new wifi card?
Which wifi card should I use?
Device description: Broadcom BCM43142 802.11 bgn Wi-Fi M.2
You're very welcome.
Sorry the W7 drivers I attached the other day didn't work for W81.
I am kind of surprised they didn't, and that W8.1 was asking for storage drivers in the first place.
just a quick followup as many people seem to be unaware that MALE TO MALE sata adapters exist which allow you to connect the adaptec cards mini SAS/SATA cable(s) to the "Z" series sata drive cage cables
also when doing a SAS/SATA card to Drives,....you require a FORWARD BREAKOUT cable not the more common reverse cable
Hello,
following up on an older issue issue reported here https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Business-PCs-Workstations-and-Point-of-Sale-Systems/HP-Thinpro-7-and-Displayport-configuration-issues/td-p/7121381
We use a 3-display setup connected to the thin clients using displayport cables. After configuring the extended screen settings, and defining the main display, and saving our changes, we also notice that Thinpro resets the settings back to factory default after the displays go to sleep.
Anyone find a way around this?
The writeup campdublanc posted (a link to) on 1-01-2020
Nice Write-up. Pictures help.
OK, back to it. I finally have all the hardware pieces I need. I have my Windows 10 Installer on a USB Flash Drive. I have the REFIND code on another USB Flash Drive (used the campdublanc instructions for creating this). I have my NVMe mounted on an Adapter card (with a Warship heatsink). I got an internal header to attach to the motherboard's USB 2.0 connector. I need to set my BIOS, then I am ready to install Windows 10.
I am now in the BIOS. My BIOS is, apparently, a little different than what campdublanc posted. Before trying things, thought I would post a couple questions - it may prevent headaches from doing the wrong thing out of ignorance.
Here are campdublanc's instructions - which echo an earlier post from DGroves.
Here’s a How To with all the steps I took to make it work:
Now, my questions on these.
- on disabling Intel AMT. The acronym 'AMT' shows up in three places in my BIOS. One is "NIC (AMT) Option ROM Download", the second is "NIC Controller (AMT)", and the third is here: "Advanced->Management Operations->AMT". I believe it is the last one that needs to be disabled. Your thoughts.
- Steps 3 and 5 on disabling the boot from "network" and "network card option." I found network boot in
"Security->Network Boot". I don't have a "Network Card Option" anywhere in BIOS unless it goes by a different name. Are Steps 3 and 5 the same? Looks like there is no Step 5 for my Z620.
- the "LSI controller boot ROM" of step 4. I don't see LSI anywhere in my BIOS. I assume I should, therefore, ignore this step.
To this point, I have not changed my BIOS.
Thank you for posting back.
To get the answer to this question, there no such options apart from The HP Cloud Recovery Tool which allows you to download recovery software to a USB drive.
I would request you to reach out to our Support and our Support Engineers should be able to sort this out. HP Support can be reached by clicking on the following link: www.hp.com/contacthp/

if you disable AMT under the security section, then by default it also disables the other two
some builds of the z820/z620 included a optional network card, if you don't have a add-in nic then the network card option will not apply
the z820 has a onboard LSI ROC chip (Raid On Chip) that powers 7 SAS/SATA ports the z620 does not have this chip and disabling the boot rom of the LSI chip speeds the bootup time
step #3) boot from network, disable to speed up boot time (see below)
step# 5) you should also disable the onboard nic(s) boot rom in the bios since you will not be booting from a network but from a hard drive/SSD again, disabling his speeds up the boot sequence and gives you more bios space for other add-in cards
Hi guys!
Got a little problem: Got my hand on a HP Z420 Workstation and wanted to upgrade it with a XFX RX580, but after installing the card i get no screen and the Z420s powerbutton turns red and it beeps 6 times (error code for graphic card issue).
I used the included 2x6pin to 8pin adapter from XFX. The power led on the card is blue (Power OK as i understand) and fans are spinning.
What i tried:
Updated to most recent BIOS (did that before installing the GPU)
Reseated the GPU serveral times
Both positions on the switch on the GPU
Tried an second PSU (check if Z420s PSU is too weak, also blue led, same behavior as with internal PSU)
Tested card in different PC, working fine
Tested Z420 with different GPU (GF 210), working fine.
CMOS Reset with GPU installed and without
Serveral different BIOS Settings, Secureboot is disabled, Legacy is enabled.
Anybody got an idea what else i can try or got the same problem?
Thanks in advance guys!
Hi,
since HP EliteDesk 800 G5 MINI has a very small form factor and powerful CPU it perfectly fits for a development of a mobile robot base. Naturally autonomous robots do not provide AC power and using inverter is not an desired option because of high power conversion and space losses. The computer only boots when connected to genuine 150 W AC adapter, other vice won't boot and emits 3.4 beep error(power failure).
A suitable 150W DC/DC genuine adapter does not seem to exist or I'm not able to find one. Tried several no names with same voltage and current ratings with no luck.
What are our options?
do you have the 700 watt supply (which has two 6 pin gpu connections) or the 500 watt unit which has none?
it appears that one or more of the adapters is not making a correct connection, or the 8 connection is not inserted into the video card correctly
reseat the 6 to 8 pin connections and make sure the 8 pin is actually inserted fully into the video card
when the connections are fully inserted the plastic latch on the connection(s) will fit over the locking ridge on the other connector
Got the PSU with 2x 6pin, but i thinks its 600W, not 700W.
Did already try these steps, no change.
whoops, you are correct the z420 has a optional 600 watt and the z440 has a optional 700 watt (sorry)
has the video card been tested in another system?
