HP Compaq nc8430 laptop driver, pictures, and info Date: 11:33 AM 2/7/2024 Feb I'm happy with a great find I got last night at Value Village. I ran across an HP Compaq nc8430 laptop for $30, but the hard drive had been removed. I had some experience with a similar system that had a broken screen and was very impressed with it. So when I found this laptop in otherwise perfect condition and just needed a hard drive I had to get it. I appreciated that I could test it to ensure it would POST and I could access the BIOS. The hard drive install went well and I installed Vista on it so that it is era appropriate. Here are the specs I could find about this system so far. Specs Year: 2006-2007 Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T7400 GPU: ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 - 256 MB VRAM - Microsoft DirectX 9 capable RAM: 4GB DDR2 667 MHz SDRAM - Uses 533 or 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM Mainboard: Intel 945PM HDD: WD 160 GB Display: 15.4-inch WSXGA+ wide viewing angle display with 1680 x 1050 resolution with matte finish - Plus ambient light sensor Other: - 802.11 a/b/g wireless LAN modules and Bluetooth - Integrated SD Media Reader - Integrated Smart Card Reader - IEEE 1394a Port - TPM Embedded Security Chip - Biometric Fingerprint Sensor - Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express Controller To use the finger print scanner you need: - AuthenTec Fingerprint Driver - ProtectTools Security Suite* * To use a fingerprint to logon to Vista HP ProtectTools Security Suite is required. Late uploaded driver additions: - ATI Video Driver sp38832 - BIOS F16 Flash Utility sp40182 - Essential System Update sp38096 - Ethernet Drivers sp37093 - Intel PROSet Wireless sp38053 I discovered that the above five driver updates are worth installing on my system and adjusting the PowerPlay setting in ATI CCC to lowest setting to stop the GPU from generating too much heat.
