It's a search engine. That's what it is used for. The search button. Use it!

Otherwise, stop trolling.

I already did. And the computer models that were posted previously were entered into that Google search. That Google search took me to the

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

manufacturer's website, where no device drivers were listed for the operating systems being mentioned. So unless each individual manufacturer of each piece of hardware has them, then they officially do not exist for driver-specific hardware.

Me showing how you are giving bad advice to others to install an OS on a computer that does not officially support that OS is not "trolling", no matter how much you want it to be considered trolling.

Again, the OS might "work" and even work for a while, but that does not equal "officially supported".

Same thing happened way back when people were doing upgrades to Windows 10 from previous operating systems. They often worked fine for a while, then one day.......boom.

BSOD errors and all kinds of problems, right after a Windows 10 update. Because the OS was not officially supported on the computer they had, and I even found the manufacturer's website in many cases to report this exact thing for a list of computers they make.

"This does not officially support an upgrade to Windows 10". Feel free to see my previous post on that. There is a reason they tell you this on the Dell Website :

Here is Dell's list of supported computers that have been tested with a Windows 10 OS :

https://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/04/sln297954/dell-computers-tested-for-windows-10-may-2019-update-and-previous-versions-of-windows-10?lang=en

"Dell computers tested for Windows 10 May 2019 Update and previous versions of Windows 10 "

They cannot guarantee you ANY version of Windows 10 after that revision date will continue to function properly on the computer where it was installed, even if found on the list of supported devices. That's why it clearly give you the date of the OS version that was tested.

Is it that difficult to google with the search term of "Windows XP" to see m multiple references to it associated with that system? Third party support sites are crawling with people's D500s reported using XP. HP's own support site has drivers tailored for that OS to go with that system. Wiki even says XP/2000 was typically defacto standard distro for that system, which by the time the CNET article was written would be inexcusable not to have it.

So, really, all you had to do was look at it yourself and clue yourself in.

Again, post the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ link to the manufacturer of the computer or hardware device where you can download device drivers for that computer or that piece of hardware found in that computer.

Google is not an "offical" source for drivers for HP, or Dell, or any manufacturer.

Post the link, please.

The only difference is that the computer that I may recover only supports PC133 SDRAM, not DDR

Came with a NVIDIA VANTA 16 MB graphics processor that I exchanged for a NVIDIA GEFORCE MX 440

That is not the same computer model you posted previously. The one you posted about previously was the 500, not the 510.

That one, the 510, does support XP :


Any one of the following:

Microsoft Windows 2000 SP2
Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP1
Microsoft Windows XP Home SP1
Mandrake Linux 8.2 (only available on limited configurations)

First of all, that applies to Dell computers, not HP. They're different brands. This is not applicable and not relevant.

The Compaq Evo was the baby of the HP and Compaq merger by 2002 (XP was released circa 2001). The link you had to a D500 Evo is not the typical system, but a "pocket" sized version. There are several different versions, but that one you showed is not particularly one that one would call for "gaming" here. You can find manuals for what you should be looking at like here[www.manualslib.com], which say so.

One of these is also mentioned in this guide: https://books.google.com/books?id=EVv89ZGunGAC&pg=PA110&dq=%22Compaq+Evo+D500%22+%22Windows+XP%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjygsSo6_bjAhUxq1kKHeHZCloQ6AEwAHoECAAQAg#v=onepage&q=%22Compaq%20Evo%20D500%22%20%22Windows%20XP%22&f=false

PC Mag tested one with XP as they typically did at the time, so there you also have it: https://books.google.com/books?id=-lMEvXuqb-oC&pg=PA98&dq=%22Compaq+Evo+D500%22+%22Windows+XP%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjygsSo6_bjAhUxq1kKHeHZCloQ6AEwAXoECAEQAg#v=onepage&q=%22Compaq%20Evo%20D500%22%20%22Windows%20XP%22&f=false

All of that I could simply google. That info is also on the Google generated side panel. This is not hard.

I am sorry for that misinterpretation, I had the idea D500 was D510...

Search on google shows that the computer I have is D500, CNET says the same... as the image is shown

There is a tool on HP that will do this for you that I also suggested you use in a previous post, if you are not sure of what the exact model is.

Those models (Evo 500 and 510) are so old, HP does not even host drivers available for download for them anymore :

Compaq Evo D510 Small Form Factor - Retired ProductsThe following products have been retired and are no longer supported by HP. All ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ HP support content for these products has been removed from this web site.

https://support.hp.com/us-en/retired-products

You would have to find the drivers elsewhere, probably from the device manufacturers on their website, unless they no longer host them either. Final method would be third party, but be warned. You can't be sure of these sources and if the drivers are correct or if they will possibly cause damage, especially if they are unsigned.

Not to be rude at all but why are you wasting time with such ancient hardware ?

I have a HITACHI 320 GB drive with a Windows 10 copy downloaded from Windows Update and a Dell Vostro 200 '05 that does not work because of a sector that is damaged and most likely to be damaged due to cat urine

Currently, it's post number 95. That is why I mentioned it also.

I may be lucky enough to get it running on a stable status...

I downloaded drivers from the website and have them on a USB flash drive.

If you have all the drivers from the site before they stopped hosting them for download then that is perfect. It should work with the OS those drivers support, but you seem to still have the issue of getting Steam to work on that OS.

Again, the Evos are not Dell computers. That is a page applicable for Dell computers, not generic testing of off-brand models. The issue he faces is a theoretical upgrade of the PC to it. He must assemble the proper hardware and configure it to those specs. By that point, he's not gonna have many original components, and it would just be far easier just to have a newer machine where the old model was not designed for such needs.

I am fully aware of the difference in manufacturer's. It's not my fault that someone was talking about two completely different computers here in the current discussion. I was simply replying to what was being discussed at that time, around post number 95.

You're "aware" but responded with something that is unrelated to the model in question he was talking about. Hence, whatever Dell's "rules" are, doesn't mean it is universal. It's more of the fine print implied for their own machines based on what they build it with.

I am going to reply to this once more and then kindly just say we can agree to disagree. The OP clearly was talking about a Dell in post number 95. I thought from that post, he or she was talking about trying to get Windows 7 working on that Dell, and I did a search on Dell and did not see any drivers available for Windows 7. So if he or she was talking about an HP and then a Dell, i don't understand why you don't see that. Post number 95.

I know Steam community is allowed by Steam Corporation, but I have all ready tried the option to play steam games on a old platform...

The solution only gave me the chance to download low requirement games and get the same message of the missing "steamui.dll" file.

I am not going to risk more time and money on what you have mentioned as an ancient equipment...

I may just have to try and get it back running without videogames

I did not mean to seem rude in that reply at all. It was not my intention. But let's be fair, as if the manufacturer is saying they don't even support drivers for download anymore, it is pretty old hardware. I am more trying to motivate you to upgrade, and not insult your computer there.

I too have older computers that I like to tinker with sometimes, but I understand their limitations. Nothing wrong with tinkering with older hardware, as long as you understand these limitations.

Yes, the missing .dll error is normal, if you are trying to run Steam on XP or Vista, but I think you already know that.
