gtx 900 card need full uefi bios to work if his hp is not that is a fail that's a common know and posted all over on that deal

''Yes I did contact HP but it took a long time for them to answer and I got this: "I suspect the issue is a lack of not having the latest UEFI standard implemented in the bios . UEFI is probably required and that might only be available in the later HP version 8 bios."

The only bios version I can get from HP for my Cleveland GL8 motherboard is a 7.15 version.

At least a got a few things cleared up.

''Welcome to the forums, like bob16314 has mention try updating your bios for your HP computer. If the same issue that...
best thing to do is check hp forums on your model to see if any aftermarket cards can work or at least ones that may ?

thig is they tell you its compatible and ya it will fit into the pcie slot but now you got to deal with hp and there proprietary bios being compatible with any aftermarket cards that's the catch 22

like here how they tell you it will ''fit'' but not if it will work fully ??

my disclaimer

some models of store bought computers [dell.hp,acer,ect..] may come with a ''locked or fixed'' bios and may not allow you to change certain hardware as a video card.. this is done to protect them from undue warranty claims and refunds .this is not done to hurt you but to protect them. you really need to see if that upgrade has been proven to work in your model first before you invest money in it .. there are a lot of these threads here at toms to look at some models will allow upgrades and some dont.. and a lot of guys here say ya ya ya when is really no no no...it would be sad you spent $200 on a card that wount post after you installed it as most find out. then get told its your psu and you spend more and end up right back where you are now, but its up to you good luck..


you got to know the the boards in these computers are not like the ones we use to do custom builds witch are open to upgrading with in the boards compatibly . the bios is custom made for there design and just for the parts they authorize to be used on there computers there only guaranteed to work as is out of the box as you bought it ,..


also these boards do not have to meet atx standards and there pci-e slot power may not do the required 75w needed for most higher end cards and can be limited to say 45 or 60w that is all thats needed with the low end factory oem cards that it may of shipped with



they do have the 750 ti that just runs off the slot and don't need extra pcie- 6 or 8 pin from the psu you could try out to see ?

best thing to do is junk that HP/any prebuilt and get a real computer or do the homework on your hp model and be 100% sure on what cards will work and what will not

not trying to be mean but showing you how you couls spend all that cash and be left holding the bag and looking at a black screen
