  < <! UPGRADE MEMORY SHOULDN'T BE COMPLICATED! > >

  Chassis: HP Compaq 6000 Pro Compact

  Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo @3. 00 GHz

  RAM: 2 x 1 GB

  OS: Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

  I can add more technical info on request.

  Recently saved this PC of my friend tries to throw it. Everything is fine with the PC. It works perfectly and there is no material visible failure wihtin the PC either. He just bought a new and had no need for this one.

  Before turn me this into a House mutli-purpose server, I decided to upgrade the RAM.

  So I did some research and found this page: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01883661

  DDR3 240-pin DIMM 1333 MHz non - ECC, Max 4 GB per DIMM slot, Total Max 16 GB module.

  I went and bought RAM Corsair. Link to the product: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/cmv4gx3m1a1333c9

  I decided to get 2x4gb and upgrade later if I felt the need.

  I was happy to install in the PC. one in DIMM 1 slot and the other in the DIMM 2 slot.

  BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!

  I thought that maybe the slots are wrong, maybe they have to odd numbers then numbers.

  So I changed the RAM of DIMM 2 DIMM 3.

  Once again, the annoying ringtone.

  I even tried leaving just the 4 GB DIMM 1 and tried to start the PC, but nothing helped.

  I tried a lot of different combinations with the end result is 5 annoying beeps.

  After that I thought that maybe, just maybe, an update of the BIOS can change things.

  So I installed Windows 7 (I can't stand Windows. Arch Linux FTW) and performing a BIOS update.

  I then installed the new RAM again. Yes... frickin 5 beeps AGAIN.

  I am extremely disappointed at this point. I spent already $ 70 on a computer with free access.

  I read the forums here, but I couldn't find a thread with a solution for me.

  Is there anyone on this forum who could lend me a helping hand?

  Any information would be gladly appreciated.

  PS Please report any stupid error, I did. Stick and stones could not curb my bones.

• HP ENVY Notebook m6-1105dx: question to DDR3L DDR3 memory upgrade

  I have a laptop of HP ENVY m6-1105dx.

  I would like to upgrade from 1.5V to DDR3L 1.35v DDR3.

  Is this possible without damage to my laptop?

  Thank you

  The upgrades only to memory that can be made to your laptop is installation of memory modules that are guaranteed compatible by a manufacturer of memory.

  Your laptop is not like a mother gaming for a desktop computer. You are limited to the settings "protect me from myself" available in your BIOS. You cannot change the tension of memory to allow the motherboard to accept other modules of memory. Installation of memory with others that the specifications published by HP or other than guaranteed compatible memory modules will probably reward you with no experience to have fun a non laptop startup.

  That said, I recommend you do a search on google for HP ENVY m6-1105dx memory upgrade. Stick with well-known brands to avoid surprises.

• Dell PowerEdge T610 (memory upgrade)

  I bought Dell 16 GB certified replacement Memory Module for select Dell - 2Rx4 1333 MHz RDIMMS LV systems

  Currently, I have 8 GB of RAM (1 GB on every slot machines). After I installed this new memory and restart the server, it shows invalid memory configuration. So, I changed the memory setting in BIOS 'Advanced ECC' to 'optimize memory '. But it detects more than my current speed of the memory is 8 GB. Is there something wrong with the configuration of the memory? I tried to re - establish the new RAM.

  Help, please. Thank you.

  Hello.

  Your memory configuration is not valid because the channel memory CH0, is not balanced with channels CH1 & CH2. Refer to the schematic illustration below:

  

  In order to balance the memory on these channels, we should have memory DIMM in:

  A1, A2 & A3 = B1, B2 & B3 in addition also A4, A5 & A6 is B4, B5 & B6. That's why CH0, CH1 & CH2 memory modules must be identical for the performance and optimal memory configuration. Depending on the upgrade amount of memory you are looking for, you can buy 1 more 16 GB DIMMS and then fill in slots A1 B1 & offer a total capacity of 32 GB. This will provide more flexibility for future memory upgrade

  Let me know if you have any other questions.

• Memory upgrade fails

  My laptop Presario R3200 3 year old came with 256 MB of RAM.  A couple of years, I've added another chip of RAM of 256 MB without problem.  The low price of RAM these days, I decided to upgrade to a full 2 GB.

  I bought two 1 GB chips from a reliable company, installed the new circuits and booted the laptop.  The fan came, the disk light flashed twice and nothing else happened.  I spent about an hour of troubleshooting on mine, called the seller of the chip and talked with their tech support, then tried their suggestions.  Nada.  Still called the supplier of chips and they suggested that maybe my BIOS is outdated.  I put back the original of the RAM in the system rebooted normally and is here to see what I could find on the upgrades to the BIOS.

  First of all, I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience with a R3000 notebook PC series.  If so, do you have the operation of RAM and how did you do?

  Thank you, John Kinney

  Thanks for the comments.

  Finally, I'm in conversation with a HP technician and went through different options.  The memory I bought is the correct type, however, after checking the laptop computer real product only. It seems that the laptop is configured only to recognize the 1 GB of RAM.  There is a BIOS upgrade, but the techie said that would probably not increase the limitation of memory.  It has been suggested that I have let a 256 MB chip in the keyboard slot and put one of the 1 GB chip in the second slot.  I tried and it didn't work until I put the * other * 256 MB Chip under the keyboard and added a chip of 1 GB in the second slot.  The laptop then started normally and seems to recognize 1.25 GB of RAM.  Apparently, there was a problem any with one of the chips original 256 MB, which was probably what caused all the mishaps and slow behaviorto begin with.

  Immeduately after the addition of the 1 GB chip, I met a few spontaneous reboots and messages half a dozen "your computer has recovered from a serious error".  Those who have not reoffended.  The laptop is now a little bit faster than it was before, and otherwise seems to work normally.

  Best regards, John Kinney

• Satellite L30-113 does not recognize memory upgrade

  Just bought a L30-113 with 512 MB and bought a Crucial 512 MB upgrade.
  It mounted, but it was not recognized on boot-up the top.
  Tried both modules of memory in the two shots together and single, recognizes however never 512 MB of memory, of course the two work packages and two jacks work, but not all.

  Checked in the bios and recognizes only 512 MB, also checked in config/advanced and not limited to 512 MB of MEMORY, I know the bios is the latest available.

  Without doubt this is a problem of compatibility. Return the new module and buy one from a reliable brand. But you shouldn't really open a new topic, because there are already two topics for this problem:

• Satellite 4010CDT memory upgrade

  Can someone help me with this OLD problem... ?

  How memory is changed in the satellite 4010cdt series... ?
  I have looked in all the obvious places, but can't see where she could go

  Thank you

  Hello

  I found some information:
  First of all, you can use a 128 MB module and you can upgrade the memory maximum. 160 MB (internal memory of 32 MB, 128 MB)

  AFAIK memory module housing is under the keyboard.
  You need to remove the keyboard to upgrade the memory.
  But if you remove the keyboard, you have to be careful.

• Dv6t 2000 CTO Entertainment Notebook with i7 processor 72QM to Max memory upgrade?

  I have a dv6t with i7 720 m build processory about 3 years ago. I think there clarksfield CPU. I have a 2 x 2 gig installed for total of 4gig from the original version.   I wonder (assuming that Win 7 64 bit family premium that takes in charge until 16gig), this laptop only supports 8gig?  I ran a tool and it has a reference to logic/Chipset memory banks maximum installable memory of 32gig and a reference to the controller memory memory install Max 8gig.  So, what gives? The laptop will support the sticks of memory 2x8gig or just the sticks of memory 2x4gig?  The laptop DV6T 2000 CTO Entertainment.  If it supports 16 gig, I would just buy one of the sticks 8gig rather than 2x4gig. And maybe try to use 2 concerts with the 8gig send me a 10gig for now... or just wait to see if I need a 2nd 8gig.  And an upgrade of the bios will support the 16 gig?

  I thought I would update my own question with the truth and the response of work that hopefully someone other than stubmles help in this.  But in a nutshell the CTO of 2000 models DV6t you could order 2009 about DO DO support 16gig and NOT only 8 GB. I have 2 slots. I have the quad 720QM first edition, yes first edition. The Intel site and the sites of Auditor memory are FALSE!  The saying has been 1st gen Quad cpu supports no more than 2x4gig = 8gigs.  In fact, one of my tools suggests that I can put in up to 32gig assuming I can find sticks of memory 2 x 16gig I don't even think is still for sale not to mention affordability. Spread the word because I hope this helps others. I bought memory to geek and thought that I would be lucky since I read several comments and observations at various locations, which suggests that they were trying to 16gig and indeed he has worked for the 720QM processor.  I did have to update my BIOS HP offers that I have to install to 2010ish, as opposed to the 4 or so that are available today for my model, but I think that have been updated to support my model didn't require much more. I carried out memory tests too in 5 iterations without problem, and in fact it starts immediately without any problem with WIN 7 home premium, recognizing the sticks. I also checked the CPU64z tool for the memory tab.

• No sound in Satellite P105-S6024 - upgrade of the BIOS, Windows XP SP3

  I changed the BIOS - 20090304153829.zip BIOS and put the new processor T7400 and I don't have a present, I have Windows XP SP3.
  You are welcome to this question, it depends on my sound

  Help me.

  Hello

  According to http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm CPU upgrade is not supported, and what you have done is at your own risk.

  Anyway, is sound the only problem, you have now?
  What is with the Device Manager, have you tried to install the audio driver?
  Some unknown device appears there?
  Can test you the functionality of hardware using the recovery image?

• Veriton M498G memory upgrade problem

  I'm trying to age 5 years Veriton M498G memory upgrade my son of 4 GB to 12 GB now when I upgaded to Windows 7 64 bit.

  The original 2 GB key still works fine and the 2 GB key that I added back a bit works very well too (4 GB total).

  But when I remove all the sticks and put in a new 4 GB stick the computer crashes in the POST just after the BIO 1024Mo of RAM (!). Looks like that the BIOS does not like the 4 GB stick! Compensation of the BIOS did not help.

  Back original memory makes the computer works perfectly.

  I am well aware of the memory manufacturer/type compatibility issues.

  I tried 4 different memory of 4 GB sticks from 2 different sources with no luck.

  My questions are:

  1. the Veriton M498G motherboard or BIOS has any limitation on the size of the memory card?

  2 I missed a setup or configuration to let the BIOS see the 4 GB memery stick?

  3. a more recent BIOS help? (the computer uses the original BIOS from 2011)

  4. is there a solution runs the endless trial and error of purchase and return of USB keys?

  The system is:

  Acer Veriton M498G

  Processor: Intel i3

  S/N: PSVAQ03005 *.

• HP Probook b 6450 memory upgrade question

  Hi all

  I seem to have a strange question seeks to upgrade the memory in a HP 6450 b probook (i5 - 480 m & ATI card). The laptop came with 2 GB of sps p/n 598856-002, which is ram 1333 mhz 1.5V with the manufacturer being ramaxel. I ordered and installed a few sticks of kingston 4 GB

  http://h30094.www3.HP.com/product/SKU/10473659/mfg_partno/KTH-X3BS/4G

  Mounted to them and all appeared to be as well as the operating system (win 7 32 bit pro) showed the recognized as 8 GB stick and 3 GB usable, the bios also reported 8 GB as well. However the moment that a 64 bit OS (Linux or Windows) is tempted to run just the laptop falls down or crashes

  I already tried this upgrade with two sticks of crucial memory but had exactly the same problem, so think about crucial memory was the question I put to the supplier and ordered the kingstons rather.

  I saw very similar question mentioned here:

  http://www.TomsHardware.co.UK/Forum/328016-30-memory-upgrade-ProBook

  and

  http://superuser.com/questions/580512/HP-ProBook-6450b-not-booting-after-memory-upgrade

  My instinct suggests this notebook can be very picky about the memory chips, it may have to be a 4 GB key 16 chip versus chip 8 4 GB sticks.

  Thoughts and help on this would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  You are the very welcome.

  Yes, I have never, ever install any module of memory in my notebooks from HP that does not 16 chips.

  All the chips I use - 2 gigs and up, have 16 chips (8 on each side).

  Never had a problem.

• HP LaserJet P2015dn printer range: printer LaserJet P2015 memory upgrade

  In HP "LaserJet P2015 [c00623611) series User Guide" which was packed with the printer, I learned that the memory upgrade chips are 100 pins minimum speed of 66 MHz.

  In HP HP Support Center "Printer LaserJet P2015 Series - specifications of the printer" I have been informed that the memory upgrade chips are 144 pins minimum speed of 66 MHz.

  What document of HP is correct?

  Aren't we glad the Boeing team who did as 747 you and I fly on doesn't have that same attitude on the correction of the inaccurate documents from 10 years. Programmers (I used a) and tech writers waste popping popcorn, drinking coffee and put on day of NCAA brackets in a day it would take to change all the various translations of a pdf most time.

  It is not surprising that HP stock has declined 80% in the last 4 years if the employee point of view prevailing.

  But thank you for the passage of my suggestion/request/grumble along their.

  I think we can close this discussion.

• 2450 PE does not start after the memory upgrade attempt

  Hello

  I have a Dell PE 2450, which is an older system, but has been working well and has 4x256MB DIMM in there and the last BIOS A09.  I tried to replace the DIMM A slot with a stick of 512 MB, and at switching on, a message appears indicating the amount of system memory has changed, followed by messages of typical POST on versions of firmware, and "Two-processor 866 MHz...", but then the system just sits there.

  The subsequent reboot by pressing F2 is not get into Setup or F10 penetrates me in utility Mode despite repeated attempts to press F2 all few seconds, I put the original memory back deleted, hard drives, tried to start on a diskette, etc.. I've tried unplugging, etc as well.  NVRAM would somehow corrupted?  Is it possible to reset?

• I restart the computer and changed the BIOs to boot from the CD. So as usual, I'm prompted to press any key to start from the CD or DVD.

  Hello Comunity Microsoft :D My name is Mike and I built a gaming pc. Everything was going well for the first 3 days, but now I have a few crashes very violent. Speakers in loop and buzz and screen lock. I have to completely shut down to go back to a working state. I did everything I could possibly think of to solve this problem, but I can't.

  Then. on the problem. Today, I decided that I was able to solve all the problems by reinstalling windows. I had my keys together and put the disc in. I restart the computer and changed the BIOs to boot from the CD. So as usual, I'm prompted to press any key to start from the CD or DVD. I do and I get normal loading windows files, and at the end of this road, I get the Welcome screen in windows7 with no option and a fat slider. I don't have the little box that tells me that I can fix my computer or reinstall windows, NOTHING. I tried several times and received the same result<--(Insanity: root="" meaning...="" just="" saying)="" so="" i="" called="" windows,="" or="" had="" windows="" call="" me="" rather,="" and="" the="" tech="" says="" she's="" never="" heard="" of="" such="" a="" thing="" happening,="" and="" walked="" me="" through="" all="" these="" steps="" that="" i="" have="" already="" tried....="" still="" no="" help.="" so="" i="" am="" asking="" the="" community.="" has="" this="" ever="" happened="" to="" you="" and="" how="" did="" you="" make="" it="" work.="" and="" please="" don't="" post="" a="" list="" of="" regurgitated="" back="" log="" fix="" lists.="" rest="" assured="" i="" have="" already="" done="" it="" and="" failed="" to="" receive="" a="" different="">

  Just to isolate the problem, try to download a new copy of Windows 7, and then try again:

  For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

  Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

  How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

  Make sure you scroll down and read the section:

  What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

  Regarding problems with the computer itself, try to disconnect all nonessential equipment attached to it to see if the problem persists.

  I would also try switching around components such as modules of memory to see if the problem persists.

  I would also check to make sure that all components are mounted and installed correctly.
