This video was a big help as I just did a case swap on my 800 G1 MB. The PSU adapter worked like a charm but I do have the USB warning when first booting but considering I leave the system on all day and the USB ports work fine, it is just a once a day annoyance. Other than that it is a sweet to have the MB in a much nicer case with a 600W PSU. I should have done this long ago. And it worked out even better as the thermal paste was getting pretty dry and needed to be replaced on the CPU and cooler. Thanks for the great video and all of the information on doing the swap!
I use those Arduino wires too, mostly for fan sensor jumping on older Optiplexes. I even made a 24 pin harness adapter out of them once years back, good vid man.
thank you so much for making this, this exact model was actually given to us and i’ve been upgrading it slowly and on offer up for deals on parts for a budget build. and not gonna lie there’s something so hot and sexy bout recycling tech i think this computer shit might be a new hobby
I love, love love using HP ProDesk 400 (G1/G2) and 280 (G1/G2) upgrades. They take regular ATX power supplies (no adapters needed), support E3 Xeons and are EASILY turned into gaming PCs. Sometimes for longer GPUs, I dremel out a tiny piece of metal (second hard drive cage). I don't case swap, because it's not worth it imo (not until GPU prices allow me to turn them into $500 systems again). Those $250-300 systems with a $20 PSU and old GCN 1.0 cards are great entry level systems for a lot of kids.
GPU prices killed me on the budget builds...... for the sff i only do the case swap. the regualar matx I just throw in a gpu psu ssd and flip them easy!!.... before crazy graphics card prices ofcourse lol...

It can start up really fast then. I have it now in a nice little case from DeepCool with RGB fans, a 600 Watt PSU and a 6GB Msi geforce gtx 1060 6g armor GPU. Only thing I don't quiet get is how do I get rid of the USB warnings while I have my front USB ports working on this nice case.
update to the my upgrade. i was having errors where the motherboard would not boot but that was because of the cable i purchased from newegg. purchased the one from your link and everything worked. then i was having the usb and front audio issues but i fixed that now i found the original cable from the chassis and now i have no errors and super fast boot up. i had to cut the chassis apart to get the backplate for the fan. i could of gone to the store to get nuts but i was already throwing away the case might as well recycle some of it.

@@DLMtechgarage with a sub 150w graphics card you can get away with reusing the HP power supply as well if you mount it with gorilla mounting tape and use a dual SATA to PCI-E 8 pin adapter.
I'm doing exactly this, with the same power adapter, but when i try to turn on the computer all i get is a green blinking light. The only hint i have is a review with a similar issue that mentioned the standby signal being wrongfully sent, but didn't provide a solution for that. The HP I'm moving to a bigger case is a HP Elitedesk 800 G1 SFF, model number TPC-F046-SF. If i just plug the oriiginal PSU, the computer boots just fine, however if using the comeap adaptor and a normal PSU: When turning it on, it doesn't spin fans or anything, all you get is a green blinking led on the motherboard, steady and continous kind of blinking. The idea was to add a spare GPU i had to it, which is a HD7970, and the test have been done with 3 different PSUs and with or without the GPU, same exact result.
the bigger case just makes it so much easier to work on plus you can cram in more drives with a sata card - the 4th gen intel is decent and ddr3 is cheap - hp is solid - refurb value king - it blows away sbc.soc boards - no comparison - i think getting boards is best way to go - people probably want z440 v2 for max performance? the z420 is an option as well - can run 256gb ram
Awesome build pall, been waiting to see it since you mentioned it 😁 Can't wait too see wat you do with the next one... Have a couple of ideas for ya if ya interested but don't want to ruin anything incase you already thought of it lol 😂 love watching you give these computers new life buddy it's great 👍

Thanks man, saved me. I accidentally bought the wrong 24 pin connector and the one you linked worked just fine. What I ended up dong is just pulling the front panel out of the HP case. Wiring it and tucking it under the power supply shroud for now. Question and I hope I didn't over look it in your video, Is there a way to get the front panel to work at all, or am I stuck with just keeping the errors from coming up on boot. Pretty decent budget build: Case: Rosewill D100 came with 4 rgb fans $50 CPU and MOBO: i7 4770 FREE! PSU: thermnaltake smart 550 $55 24 pin connector: $12 CPU cooler bolts: $7 GPU: GTX 1060 6gb: $100 Storage: Samsung 850 120 gb and WD 250 gb, FREE with machine
It's in the video, the pinout is simple for the led and power, the usb, you need to add the grounds I should in the video and the audio is a direct plug in. got another video showing this on a different model but the front panel is basically the same. this video might explain it better. ruclips.net/video/3qOmhk6gVik/видео.html
Great video man. Curious to see if you can use small wires , and solder jump those pins on the back side of the board , so you can still use the headers
I have the HP EliteDesk 700 G1 (Mid-tower) and i am planning to put it inside of an m-atx case. The Mid-tower Version is op, because u can fit in a Full Size GTX 1050Ti without changing something. All i have to live with is one SATA Slot less and i needed to switch the way the CPU-Power cable is connected. Edit: Btw great and helpful video, even ur tips for the lots of pins and connectors!
yea i prefer the midtower versions. so much easier to upgrade. I like to mod them too, cut a window, some custom paint and they tend to sell quick. Appreciate the comment!!
@@_drengr5701 not sure, have not been able to confirm it. i see that 600 and 800 have the adaptor. I will keep looking and let you know what I find. The adaptors vary on pin out and getting the wrong one causes issues.

Were you able to shift the things to the case somehow? Successfully? Because I acc went to my local pc repair shop and they said it's a brand pc so the case cannot be swapped 😅😅
hi, two question, i have the hp elitedesk 800g1 with an i5 4590 and a 240w power supply, 1 question: I can add a gt1030 without problems with the power supply? 2 question: In case the answer to question 1 is yes, in the future I could put an i7 4770 on it or the power supply could not power the computer.
i did the exact same thing you did my mother board won't turn on. i got another g1 800 hp board wotking in original case to everything out of that and put that on my test bench and that will not boot. neither board will boot using original ps
ok after trouble shooting figured out is the 24 pin cable i bought from new egg. original power supply is working on mb after cmos reset. i looked at the cable link you posted and the wires are different colors from my original power supply and in different pin layouts
thank you for posting this, this is perfect timing for me. ive had one of these oems laying around and I wanted to try to utiize it in a cheap pc. since mine has a 240w psu, do you think that would power a 1050 ti (no external power) and an i7-4790?

You mentioned that the motherboards are goin for $10. Well, I know yours is a G1, but I was lookin at G2 motherboards, and although Im pretty sure I can find them for cheap, I did see one website selling G2 motherboards for £298 (UK pounds).........but that didnt even include TAX........with the VAT on top it was £357........AND they wanted an extra £6 for delivery lol. I dont imagine they sell a lot of those.
Thank you for this video! Everything is working great however I do get error 512, rear chassis fan not detected. Which is odd because there is no rear chassis fan? Does anyone have any insight regarding error 512 on boot? Rear chassis fan not connected? I've spent hours searching and can't seem to find a solution.
what connector did you use for usb port? I was kinda confuse with shorting..Normally a new case comes with 9 pin usb 2 or 3 from the case usb ports. How will you use it for that motherboard? please explain further to me..thanks
I use the stock usb port, add the extra pin and splice into the original connector. I have a video on the z240 which shows it alot better. link below ruclips.net/video/3qOmhk6gVik/видео.html
@DLM tech garage different motherboards have different ways to do it depending on age of bios. Google change bios logo. Should point you to the right direction. Definitely better to change it if in a new case to hide the branding. Also ways to change the windows 10 logo and add custom startup sound. For example, I made arcade machine/pc setup for the nephews and had a playstation logo and startup theme when you turn it on, then had autorun to hyperspin on startup. Always little quick things that will turn a great job over the edge to professional level kinda deal. Someone can cut down a tree perfectly but what makes them the best is when they do the clean up at the end compared to someone who leaves a mess. Same deal here
I have a question about this style of adapter, I ordered one from Amazon that is supposed to work with many models. I got a new Thermaltake 500w psu and hooked it up to the HP G1 via the adapter, it boots but shuts off. I'm using the cases power button and the led turns red. It works perfectly fine with the stock psu.
@DLM tech garage Couldn't you use a AMD cooler mounting (AM3(+) or AM4)? I saw in a forum that someone modified (drilled new holes) an Noctua bracket to use it.
hi mate, i would like to ask how did you put an extra exhaust fan on the modded build, if you can, can you drop the link to the adapter or something? thanks in advance man great video!
Hey man, first of all nice video! I have the exact same model and i just bought a 24pin to 6 pin power supply adapter, a 500 watt power supply, a gtx 1060, and of course a bigger case. I have a question tho, what is the exact size of the bolts you bought?
You seem to know your HP’s really well. Any idea if Prodesk G1 power supply works in Prodesk G2? The cases on them looks almost exactly same as this EliteDesk. I was planning to make mashup upgrade with most of the parts other than MB+CPU coming from G1. I only need to buy DDR4 ram to the G2 if I proceed with my plan and have also a narrow GPU for it. Those HP’s are dirt cheap because G1 MB has some issues and G2 is missing half of the parts that I would get from G1 so it would be great combo if only the PSU plays nicely with the G2 motherboard…
I bought some of this old crrp to upgrade my family with... I'm kind of regretting paying for all these 4gb DIMMs they populated everything with. You're better off buying an empty machine and populating it with 8gb DIMMs. In that respect HP really ripped off businesses by giving them four 4gb DIMMs, instead of two 8gb DIMMs. And the bogus power connector - there was no call for that.
ok found out the cable i bought from newegg did not work. i bought the one in your link and everything worked. i wish i of done that 5 days ago... now i have error 921 922 and 923 but i don't have from audio available and i do have the blue usb hooked up and i don't have a yellow usb connector i have the sff board
I'm about to build a rig like this for my dad, with a HP elite 8200 and I wanted too keep the cooler. I have a i7 2600k 16gig, 600w thermaltake power supply and I'm hoping to get a rx580 to work....
I have a HP elitedesk 800 g1 i7 4th gen like in video and I want to do case swap as well but I’m a bit weary of the usb 3 and usb 1 error jump cables. If I have a case that can fit into usb 3 and 1 pins would I receive the error still? Or is this solution purely for if you are not using the pins?
All cases will fit the USB. This issue is that HP used a ground signal in one of the pins on their connectors to show that error when other front panels are used. By doing the pinout it gets rid of the error. It is only necessary if you do t want that error
make sure you have the specific adaptor for this mobo. the various model and their adaptors look the same but are wired differently. If you don't get the right one it will do that.
so if i put this in a gaming case, can i just plug in the new cases usb 2.0 into that yellow header? and the usb 3.0 into the blue one and have them be usable on the new case? or do I HAVE to jumper them together? id like to just plug the new cases wires into this board, but i dont want it to fry anything, as can be the case with dell motherboards and their fan headers for example
One question my case has two usb's (the old kind) its a case from 2001 where do i plug those in at? they say vcc1 usb1- usb+ vcc2 usb2- usb+ and then 2 ground cables
Hello, using an ATX Case for 800 G1 SFF. The case/power supply has a USB 3.0 Cable. Now error is Front USB-2. How to we pin out to remove the "922 - Front USB error"?

Great video! Just curious if this concept could work for the hp prodesk 600 g2? I'm mainly worried about that 24 pin to 6 pin adapter for the cpu power on the mobo. It seems like if I find the layouts for the mobo and get those grounding cables I can bypass front panel errors and do a case swap. Just worried about that adapter for the cpu power. Thank you for your time!🤘

Great video. I'm looking to do something similar with an. HP Elitedesk 800 G4, which has a a mother board that looks a lot different. Mainly that it appears to only have a 4 pin power connector. I'm able to find one that will work for that. Thoughts?
Hey this is a rad video and I'm actually in the process of doing this myself! One question: Do you have a link to the 3D printer backplate? I did not see it in the Description

Do not use Electrical tape, use the automotive tape ("clothed", black, looks like tissue, noise dampening) instead. Electrical tape detaches and leaves a sticky mess with time.
Nice to meet you!!! I love your video. One question I have an hp prodesk 600 g1 sff, which 24-pin to 6-pin adapter. Do you recommend I have a 550-watt power supply. please help!!
unfortunately the way the hp6300 mobo layout is, it is not transferable to a typical case. since the 6300 is the q75 chipset, best bet would be is to take the cpu memory, and other components and transfer them to a newer motherboard so you can use a better case and psu.
Hi thanks for this video, my only question is can I purchase any 3rd party ATX or Micro ATX case to transfer the contents of the HP 800 G1 SFF or are there specific brands only that can fit? Please let me know. Thanks again.
I have a EliteDesk 800 g1 TWR and I noticed the mobo screw holes don't match those of a standard m-ATX mobo. Do you need to adapt the case to the Hp OEM mobo ? How bad is it ? Thanks.
@@DLMtechgarage Sorry I wrote that when I was tired lol. So you see how you used the jumping cables to get rid of usb f1 error, is this necessary to do if the pins are being used? And if so, do I do it before I transfer it into a new case?
Question, I have that same HP 800G1, I am going to install a Geforce GTX1650, I know the power comes from the PCI-E rail thru this 240 watt power supply. Nividia recommends at least 300 watt power supply. Will the GPU still work and will it work properly? If I upgrade the PSU, the watt at the rail would not increase anyway right?
Quick question, what is that white connector for? My pc case doesn’t have that connection for the white connector. But I do have that black cable next to it. What am I missing here ?
Hey can you help me? I have a hp Z230 SFF. I bought a 500W psu and im moving the MOBO into a h510 elite case. My psu is a Thermaltake smart series. Comes with main pwr connector 20+4 pin, 4+4 atx pin that i plugged into the cpu pwr, sata 4 pin i used for two SSD, pci-e 6+2 pin (x2) one 8pin went into my Rx 580, peripheral 4 pin and a fdd 4 pin. I planned on putting one 6 pcie pin into the main power connector. The pcie pin fits into the main power connector. But the shapes look a little different. Also the 6 pin thats above the sata power. I don’t know if it matters if i use that or not. So do i even need the 24pin adapter?
you have to use the adaptor or it won't work, you can short out the board. When you buy the adaptor make sure it is specific to the z230 as other models look the same but are wired differently.
I'm looking to upgrade my fans only in a stock HP 800 G1 tower, I read somewhere the pin config on the Case Fan connectors is proprietary and you can't just plugin any fan to the headers. Do you know if that's true or? I don't want to start a fire xD I know it has at least 1 SYS Fan header and 1 CPU Fan header.
cool man, i'm trying to builda rig with this motherboard and your tips about the power cable is very great but i had a question. Where do you attach the 24pin output? directly to the psu?
@@DLMtechgarage ok but my Psu doesen't have the 24 PIN input but only the cable. Is that a problem or i can put the 24 PIN motherboard cable inside 24 PIN Psu cable?
Only time I ran into that error was due to getting the wrong psu adaptor. has to be the exact one for the hp z240. the others look the same but are wired slightly different which causes the error.

When turning it on, it doesn't spin fans or anything, all you get is a green blinking led on the motherboard, steady and continous kind of blinking. The idea was to add a spare GPU i had to it, which is a HD7970, and the test have been done with 3 different PSUs and with or without the GPU, same exact result.
the bigger case just makes it so much easier to work on plus you can cram in more drives with a sata card - the 4th gen intel is decent and ddr3 is cheap - hp is solid - refurb value king - it blows away sbc.soc boards - no comparison - i think getting boards is best way to go - people probably want z440 v2 for max performance? the z420 is an option as well - can run 256gb ram
Awesome build pall, been waiting to see it since you mentioned it 😁
Can't wait too see wat you do with the next one...
Have a couple of ideas for ya if ya interested but don't want to ruin anything incase you already thought of it lol 😂 love watching you give these computers new life buddy it's great 👍
Thanks, def please share, always open to viewers suggestions, you can post them here or email me at dlmtechgarge@gmail.com, you can also check me out on instagram and twitter, i do more behind the scene and sneak peaks of upcoming stuff.
@@DLMtechgarage oh brilliant, I'll send you an email as I don't have Twitter or Instagram lol 🙂👍
Thanks man, saved me. I accidentally bought the wrong 24 pin connector and the one you linked worked just fine. What I ended up dong is just pulling the front panel out of the HP case. Wiring it and tucking it under the power supply shroud for now. Question and I hope I didn't over look it in your video, Is there a way to get the front panel to work at all, or am I stuck with just keeping the errors from coming up on boot.
Pretty decent budget build:
Case: Rosewill D100 came with 4 rgb fans $50
CPU and MOBO: i7 4770 FREE!
PSU: thermnaltake smart 550 $55
24 pin connector: $12
CPU cooler bolts: $7
GPU: GTX 1060 6gb: $100
Storage: Samsung 850 120 gb and WD 250 gb, FREE with machine
It's in the video, the pinout is simple for the led and power, the usb, you need to add the grounds I should in the video and the audio is a direct plug in.
got another video showing this on a different model but the front panel is basically the same. this video might explain it better.

@@DLMtechgarage thanks, so you are able to utilize the entire front panel. Nothing is unusable correct?
@@calebhenderson2156 yup, able to use the whole front just like any other board.
@@DLMtechgarage you are beautiful. I love you
@@calebhenderson2156 thanks!!
Great video man. Curious to see if you can use small wires , and solder jump those pins on the back side of the board , so you can still use the headers
you can, what i do is splice the jumper wires into the connector and you can still use the headers.
@@DLMtechgarage How do you mean. I am in Belgium and no native English speaking person. Splice the jumper wires into the connector?
I have the HP EliteDesk 700 G1 (Mid-tower) and i am planning to put it inside of an m-atx case.
The Mid-tower Version is op, because u can fit in a Full Size GTX 1050Ti without changing something. All i have to live with is one SATA Slot less and i needed to switch the way the CPU-Power cable is connected.
Edit: Btw great and helpful video, even ur tips for the lots of pins and connectors!
yea i prefer the midtower versions. so much easier to upgrade. I like to mod them too, cut a window, some custom paint and they tend to sell quick. Appreciate the comment!!

Good to hear
I wish I saw this video before I got my dell 9020. Once i build it out, I wana try this hp out and try to sell some budget PCs in my area. Thanks you.

Were you able to shift the things to the case somehow? Successfully? Because I acc went to my local pc repair shop and they said it's a brand pc so the case cannot be swapped 😅😅
Your gonna need Deez Nutz HAHA GOTEM 😂, great video, was thinking about a case swap too
im worried about jumping pins cause ive seen some other case swap vids and they dont need to bypass the error idk?
without the jumping I had the errors.
hi, two question, i have the hp elitedesk 800g1 with an i5 4590 and a 240w power supply,
1 question: I can add a gt1030 without problems with the power supply?
2 question: In case the answer to question 1 is yes, in the future I could put an i7 4770 on it or the power supply could not power the computer.
Those two upgraded would be fine. The gt 1030 uses very little power and leaves enough for the i7.
i did the exact same thing you did my mother board won't turn on. i got another g1 800 hp board wotking in original case to everything out of that and put that on my test bench and that will not boot. neither board will boot using original ps
ok after trouble shooting figured out is the 24 pin cable i bought from new egg. original power supply is working on mb after cmos reset. i looked at the cable link you posted and the wires are different colors from my original power supply and in different pin layouts
yea you have to get the specific one for the 800 g1. the z240 and another variant look exactly the same but are wired differently.
@@DLMtechgarage i thought i got the right one but they all look the same. the cables lol. i ordered the one i saw in the video will test tomorrow
thank you for posting this, this is perfect timing for me. ive had one of these oems laying around and I wanted to try to utiize it in a cheap pc. since mine has a 240w psu, do you think that would power a 1050 ti (no external power) and an i7-4790?
yup would def run fine. I have gone that route and not had any issues. just the lp 1050ti a little too expensive.
@@DLMtechgarage what will happen with the usb cable jumper wire thing does it mean i cant use any of the usb in my motherboard and case?

@@DLMtechgarage I hav3 a elitedesk 800 G1 sff and I got the one listed but they sent me one with different wire placements then what was shoe on the image. I'm gonna order a different one to see if that works.

go for it. pretty easy and the boards on these are solid!
@@DLMtechgarage hey sorry for bothering you again...when im jumping the signal connector to the ground on the usb 1.0 pins....can i just take some plyers and pinch the 2 pins together so they're touching eachother??...isnt that in "theory" the same thing as using a jumper wire??? just curious on your thoughts...thanks in advanced!
You mentioned that the motherboards are goin for $10. Well, I know yours is a G1, but I was lookin at G2 motherboards, and although Im pretty sure I can find them for cheap, I did see one website selling G2 motherboards for £298 (UK pounds).........but that didnt even include TAX........with the VAT on top it was £357........AND they wanted an extra £6 for delivery lol. I dont imagine they sell a lot of those.
ebay in the US sells them cheap
I like it man, but now even cheap atx cases cost the same as a used office PC. Sucks but that's the times
Excellent point; case prices have recently jumped up A LOT.
I know!! I miss getting them for like 20 buck, What I have been doing lately is finding older cases and repurposing them!!

It's hurt or miss, key is to stay vigilant checking the market place!! They get snagged up quick!
Thank you for this video! Everything is working great however I do get error 512, rear chassis fan not detected. Which is odd because there is no rear chassis fan?
Does anyone have any insight regarding error 512 on boot? Rear chassis fan not connected? I've spent hours searching and can't seem to find a solution.
i plugged in a fan and it got rid of it.
Yes lol I felt bad for posting this comment because last night I realized, maaaan just plug a fan in !!

what connector did you use for usb port? I was kinda confuse with shorting..Normally a new case comes with 9 pin usb 2 or 3 from the case usb ports. How will you use it for that motherboard? please explain further to me..thanks

What I usually do is change the bios image so it doesn't say HP. Just little cosmetic thing
How you do that?? did not know that could be done!!
@DLM tech garage different motherboards have different ways to do it depending on age of bios. Google change bios logo. Should point you to the right direction. Definitely better to change it if in a new case to hide the branding. Also ways to change the windows 10 logo and add custom startup sound. For example, I made arcade machine/pc setup for the nephews and had a playstation logo and startup theme when you turn it on, then had autorun to hyperspin on startup. Always little quick things that will turn a great job over the edge to professional level kinda deal. Someone can cut down a tree perfectly but what makes them the best is when they do the clean up at the end compared to someone who leaves a mess. Same deal here
@@GFDthatsMe awesome info thanks!
Your welcome. I'm sure you will be having a video in the future where you do exact thing. Looking forward to watching
Antec 900 case 👍
I have a question about this style of adapter, I ordered one from Amazon that is supposed to work with many models. I got a new Thermaltake 500w psu and hooked it up to the HP G1 via the adapter, it boots but shuts off. I'm using the cases power button and the led turns red. It works perfectly fine with the stock psu.
@DLM tech garage
Couldn't you use a AMD cooler mounting (AM3(+) or AM4)? I saw in a forum that someone modified (drilled new holes) an Noctua bracket to use it.
Anything is possible with a little modding
Can you do a video of how you hook up the fans would highly appreciate it I can’t seem to wire my fans correctly
I just used a sata to pwm adapter that splits it into 4
hi mate, i would like to ask how did you put an extra exhaust fan on the modded build, if you can, can you drop the link to the adapter or something? thanks in advance man great video!
Hey man, first of all nice video! I have the exact same model and i just bought a 24pin to 6 pin power supply adapter, a 500 watt power supply, a gtx 1060, and of course a bigger case. I have a question tho, what is the exact size of the bolts you bought?
it's been so long I don't remember, i thought I mentioned it in the video. my apologies.
You seem to know your HP’s really well. Any idea if Prodesk G1 power supply works in Prodesk G2? The cases on them looks almost exactly same as this EliteDesk.
I was planning to make mashup upgrade with most of the parts other than MB+CPU coming from G1. I only need to buy DDR4 ram to the G2 if I proceed with my plan and have also a narrow GPU for it. Those HP’s are dirt cheap because G1 MB has some issues and G2 is missing half of the parts that I would get from G1 so it would be great combo if only the PSU plays nicely with the G2 motherboard…
not sure
@@DLMtechgarage thanks for the quick reply! I will let you know if I try it anyway 😁
I bought some of this old crrp to upgrade my family with... I'm kind of regretting paying for all these 4gb DIMMs they populated everything with. You're better off buying an empty machine and populating it with 8gb DIMMs. In that respect HP really ripped off businesses by giving them four 4gb DIMMs, instead of two 8gb DIMMs. And the bogus power connector - there was no call for that.
Será que el disipador de esa placa hp se puede utilizar en otra que no sea hp
Great video but the g2 board has 12 pins not 10 any suggestions on pin out because still get fan to spin a second then stop.
yea I said that wrong, I have seen that when using the wrong psu adaptor. it has to be specific to the 800 g1
so nice of your really best video provide lot of Info Thanks

ok found out the cable i bought from newegg did not work. i bought the one in your link and everything worked. i wish i of done that 5 days ago... now i have error 921 922 and 923 but i don't have from audio available and i do have the blue usb hooked up and i don't have a yellow usb connector i have the sff board
if its the usb error you need to jump those ground pins. the audio will just plug in and get rid of the error no moding needed.

I have a HP elitedesk 800 g1 i7 4th gen like in video and I want to do case swap as well but I’m a bit weary of the usb 3 and usb 1 error jump cables. If I have a case that can fit into usb 3 and 1 pins would I receive the error still? Or is this solution purely for if you are not using the pins?
All cases will fit the USB. This issue is that HP used a ground signal in one of the pins on their connectors to show that error when other front panels are used. By doing the pinout it gets rid of the error. It is only necessary if you do t want that error
@@DLMtechgarage Cheers thats helped me decide what I want to do with my pc. Thanks for the response!
You Didn't Show How The Power Supply Connected To The Rest Of The Motherboard.
I Have A 750W Cooler Master It Starts Up And Then Turns Off
make sure you have the specific adaptor for this mobo. the various model and their adaptors look the same but are wired differently. If you don't get the right one it will do that.
so if i put this in a gaming case, can i just plug in the new cases usb 2.0 into that yellow header? and the usb 3.0 into the blue one and have them be usable on the new case? or do I HAVE to jumper them together? id like to just plug the new cases wires into this board, but i dont want it to fry anything, as can be the case with dell motherboards and their fan headers for example
you don't have to do the ground mod, that only gets rid of the error, it will still work
One question my case has two usb's (the old kind) its a case from 2001 where do i plug those in at? they say vcc1 usb1- usb+ vcc2 usb2- usb+ and then 2 ground cables
it's hard to say with the older cases... I am not sure.

unfortunately the way the hp6300 mobo layout is, it is not transferable to a typical case. since the 6300 is the q75 chipset, best bet would be is to take the cpu memory, and other components and transfer them to a newer motherboard so you can use a better case and psu.

Question, I have that same HP 800G1, I am going to install a Geforce GTX1650, I know the power comes from the PCI-E rail thru this 240 watt power supply. Nividia recommends at least 300 watt power supply. Will the GPU still work and will it work properly? If I upgrade the PSU, the watt at the rail would not increase anyway right?
the system would crash and could burn up the card, mobo, or psu, need more juice out of the psu

Hey can you help me? I have a hp Z230 SFF. I bought a 500W psu and im moving the MOBO into a h510 elite case. My psu is a Thermaltake smart series. Comes with main pwr connector 20+4 pin, 4+4 atx pin that i plugged into the cpu pwr, sata 4 pin i used for two SSD, pci-e 6+2 pin (x2) one 8pin went into my Rx 580, peripheral 4 pin and a fdd 4 pin. I planned on putting one 6 pcie pin into the main power connector.
The pcie pin fits into the main power connector. But the shapes look a little different. Also the 6 pin thats above the sata power. I don’t know if it matters if i use that or not.
So do i even need the 24pin adapter?
you have to use the adaptor or it won't work, you can short out the board. When you buy the adaptor make sure it is specific to the z230 as other models look the same but are wired differently.
El 800 es mejor que hp 8300,porque la salida pci express está al lado del microprocesador y sólo se puede poner una gpu pequeña de un solo cooler 😢
What form factor does the case have? I heard that ATX cases are not compatible with HP motherboards
this case is a regular atx and the boards fit fine in them. you can also use the matx.
Could you tell me how to connect the exhaust fan that comes with the NZXT H510 to this board?
I would use a sata to 4 pin adptor
I missed something, why are you taking the cpu heat sink off to begin with? Or was this just a mother board no cpu?
it is bolted to the case. only way to remove the board.
I'm looking to upgrade my fans only in a stock HP 800 G1 tower, I read somewhere the pin config on the Case Fan connectors is proprietary and you can't just plugin any fan to the headers. Do you know if that's true or? I don't want to start a fire xD I know it has at least 1 SYS Fan header and 1 CPU Fan header.
It's easier to go with a sata to 4 pin as the fan connectors are limited.
