4gig RAM installed on ABIT, card mother VT7. BIOS sees all 4Gig, Windows XP Pro sees 3Gig. How to fix?

Contributed the most of RAM on my motherboard ABIT VT7.  BIOS sees all 4Gig.  Windows XP Pro \Control Panel \System \General sees only 3Gig of it.  It's ALL available and all simply not shown or is for XP 4Gig limit mess with things?

Windows XP Pro is a 32-bit operating system and can't see anymore than 3 (a little) GB of RAM. I'm stating a little is because the General system hardware (e.g. edge, videos, etc.) uses little RAM, and this number varies.

So to use more than 3 GB of RAM, you need a 64-bit operating system. If you do not at least 8 GB, it is simply not worth the hassle with the lost devices because of 64-bit drivers do not exist or software that will simply run in a 64-bit operating system

  • Error 0X0000007E Stop after installing the new card mother and CPU.

    Original title: Stop error after installing the new card mother and CPU.

    After I installed a new motherboard and CPU I got a stop error 0X0000007E (0XC0000005, 0XB77EA756, 0XB84C742C, 0xB84C7128) and it restarted immediately. It always starts in safe mode, but I can't understand what is wrong. The old processor is a pentium 4 3 ghz, not sure what the motherboard was, new processor is AMD Athlon 64 X 2 Dual core 4200 + and I only know that the motherboard is an ASUS socket AM2. Device Manager does not recognize the CPU correctly, it shows just two entries called processor. As far as I can tell, it's almost certainly a driver issue, but I don't know how to diagnose or fix this. I am running windows XP home, I removed my video card, running 2 hard drives at 120 g (M) and 200 g (S), a DVD drive (M) and a reader of CD (S), and a stick of RAM to 1 GB.

    If you have made the change without having to reinstall XP, you will be taking and Pray H@ll. the best thing to do would be to reinstall XP and make sure you have the drivers available for your motherboard available so that you can update the installed chipset. In addition, be aware that if you have an OEM of Windows version, the license is dead when you changed the mother/CPU card.

    I hope this helps.

  • Install the Bluetooth (broadcom BCM20702A0) on Pavilion p7 - 1446 with Windows 7 Pro 64...

    Hi - I just buy a desktop Pavilion p7 - 1446 s (AMD Trinity A10 w / integrated Radeon HD d 7660) which came preloaded w / 8 Win.  I put Windows 7 and went thru and got MOST of the hardware & stuff works... However, I CAN'T bluetooth (BCM20702A0) will, or can I get a driver for the SM Bus controller.  I downloaded some Bluetooth drivers (3.0 AND 4.0), but whenever I try to install, I get an alert indicating that "there is no installed or connected bluetooth device" or something.  As far as I know, it is integrated with the broadcom WLAN, who works without a doubt...  Any ideas?

    You are the very welcome.

    Try this driver & software BT.

  • Re-install Windows 8 pro on PC, how many times before that the product key is not valid?

    Due to problems with Windows Update, and more specifically by using the 8.1 free update, I had some problems and have re-isntalled twice now on this PC.

    You install previous motherboard no re-day after the first installation.

    First install on the replacement motherboard activated via telephone due to the new material.

    2 more reinstall without a phone on the same PC.

    The general consensus is that, once you get to the installation of 5th Activation of the phone is necessary.

    How many times before that the product key is not valid?

    I only ask that the errors are related to data that is not stored on my PC.  and given that Windows 8 is nowhere near the performance and stabilty before I used the App store update I have to reinstall until it's resolved.

    Required to reactivate by phone after the 5th reinstalled only happen based on the license.

    If you make significant changes with a license pre-installed as a motherboard, then you will not be able to use the phone or Internet activation.

  • long beeps after installing the video card

    Hello

    I recently bought a HP 500-223w.

    I wanted to install a power supply a video card.

    Here's the problem: everything works fine without the installed video card.

    If I install the video card then at startup it gives me a series of long beeps.

    I turned it off after the long fourth beep assuming they would UST go on and on.

    The power supply is more than enough to power the video card.

    The video card should not be bad, because I just moved it from another system. (system currently does not, bad mobo)

    I was wondering what the infinite long beep on startup?

    Thanks and regards, TJames.

    Hello:

    Product for your PC specifications indicate that it comes with Windows 8.1.

    To install a video card no HP on PC shipped with Windows 8 or 8.1, you must change both settings of the BIOS before installing the card.

    Please see this document for the BIOS to change settings...

  • How can I get PageMaker 6.5 installed on Windows 7 Pro?

    I've been running PageMaker 6.5 in Windows XP Pro SP 3 for several years, but my XP system is broken, and I had to upgrade to a Windows 7 Pro machine. How can I install PM 6.5 or newer update so I can open, edit and create new PageMaker files in the operating system Windows 7 Pro?

    I don't know that PageMaker has updated several times since I finally bought it, but I have no idea what is the current upgrade. What is the upgrade older, more affordable, which will always be open and edit 6.5 MP files and still install in Windows 7 Pro?

    Thank you very much. I wrote an educational program to teach and help the military Combat vets suffering from PTSD and I do the training for free, so I can't really afford to pay for a major software upgrade.

    A few things to note.
    InDesign is a professional page layout program and the price is accordingly.  You can 'buy' IDCS6 for $699, or you can pay $20 per month (annual contract) for IDCC, who will you have access to IDCS6.

    Pagemaker in InDesign conversions can vary widely. Some may be almost on the spot, others may be a confused mess.

    Some people have talked about Serif page plus (about $120), which will not open Pagemaker documents, but will be supposed to be editing pdf files. I have not tried it myself so I don't know how a good or bad, that is.

    Whatever you do, if you still have access to an xp with Pagemaker system make high-resolution pdf copies of all document Pagemaker than you think you'll need.

  • Upgrade of Ram card mother 8700 XPS

    I bought the regular version of the 8700 XPS that came with 8 GB of ram not the 8700 XPS Special Edition.

    I got contradictory information service to Dell customers on the amount of ram, the card mother the regular XPS 8700 supports. When I bought, but have read on the forum that it is only 16 GB, I said 32 GB of Dell.

    Can someone confirm please the amount of ram, the card mother the regular XPS 8700 can handle? Please, I beg you.

    Hi chrisyackulic,

    Dell XPS 8700 has 4 x 240 pin slots DDR3L/DDR3 SDRAM supporting the Dual Channel DDR3L SDRAM up to 1600 MHz. The XPS 8700 supports a maximum of 32 GB of system memory. If you install DDR3L, all other modules should be DDR3L (1.5 V) only.

  • Card mother H-IG41uATX HP works @ 1066 Mhz with single 2GB 1333 Mhz RAM

    Hello

    My card mother H-IG41uATX HP works @ 1066 Mhz with single 2GB 1333 Mhz RAM (Apacer PC-10600) @ 7-7-7-20.

    BIOS is Version 6.08, 07/07/2011.

    BIOS it detected as PC-8500. CPUZ shows like PC-10700 work clocked at 533 Mhz (= 1066 MHz DDR).

    The processor is Intel Pentium Core 2 Duo E 8400 3.06 GHz with FSB 1333 MHz.

    WIndows 7 operating system

    1. Why does is not able 1333 Mhz motherboard @ full speed?

    2 working memory @ 1066 MHz @ 7-7-7-20 VS memory work @ 1333 MHz @ 9-9-9-24, which is better?

    Khelifi

    Sure... While theoretically fastest speed of memory should be faster, there is little or no difference in the overall performance of the memory. The memory CASE latency generally increases the rated speed increases. Latency means basically 'backwardness' and this latency to counterbalance the gain by increasing the speed. Still, you would never notice a difference between the two.

  • I upgraded my card mother cpu ram and hard drive. I reinstalled windows xp home edition has got all of the updates. After 9 latest updates download and installtion went well, I restarted the computer, I get a blue screen and the computer restarts

    I upgraded my card mother cpu ram and hard drive. I reinstalled windows xp home edition has got all of the updates.

How can this be corrected?

    Hi KevinRy,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    Unplug all external devices.

    Try to start in safe mode. If you can start in safe mode, and then do a system restore to restore the computer to an earlier point in time.

    Change the recovery settings to disable automatic reboot, if you are able to boot up to the desktop computer:

    1.

    Right-click my computerand then click Properties.

    2.

    Click the Advanced tab.

    3.

    Under Startup and recovery, click settings to open the Startup and recovery dialog box.

    4.

    Clear the automatically restart check box, and then click OK many times necessary.

    5.

    Restart your computer so that the settings take effect.

    Now, when you are going to close and a fatal error occurs, you will see at least and it won't cause an automatic restart.

    Please reply back with the error message you get because it helps us to resolve the error.

    Kind regards

  • How much RAM my compaq presario c770 support? Or, which will support the card mother hp 30 d 9?

    My operating system is 32-bit windows vista Home premium. I am aware that a 32-bit system supports up to 4 GB of RAM.  I really just need to know what motherboard 'Hewlett-Packard 30 9' support at best.  I already have 2 GB of RAM and I just want to know if it would be useful to try to add more. I also know what products are available in order to not give me links to stores.  The type of RAM installed is DDR2, if it is important in the determination of the effective maximum RAM.  The girl has some age on it so my warranty is out, which means apparently no support by email at hp, the tails.  I recently did a factory restore and improved my battery, I'm just kind of see how I can make my portable 2008 work so suggestions on my particular computer are welcome.
