  • Mac Pro early 2008 adding ram problems

    I recently added RAM to my Mac Pro early 2008. The Mac Pro recognizes only 4 of 8 memory locations. I moved the slots and moved the memory and all slots and all the memories are good.

    You probably confuse the printer. You seem to be using 2 DIMMS that are 48Mo and each also 8 mb flash. These chips contain the firmware in the flash section and the memory in the other. Since you're probably using a chip LJ2300 another dimm, you confuse the printer with 2 firmwares. You must use a barrette of memory 32, 64 or 128 in the 3rd slot. Only 1 chip 8/48 MB can be used in this printer.

  • Flickering screen 17 Alienware r3 after adding ram

    I have a new r3 Alienware 17 it came with 8 GB of ram, I just added ram 2x16gb 2133 corsair.  When I put power back on the screen started to Flash, it is very pronounced in the office when I open the start menu.  I checked the BIOS is updated.  I put the old RAM in and flicker went.

    I checked that this computer is rated for 32 GB, so I wonder what I do wrong or if I need to update other elements to make this work.

    Any help is appreciated!

    Could be many things, software packages to the specifics of the hardware. We usually use Kingston, Toshiba, Samsung and Hynix.

  • Inspiron 530 - adding RAM

    Hello

    I want to buy a memory to my inspiron 530! Here > http://accessories.euro.dell.com/sna/category.aspx?c=uk&l=en&s=dhs&cs=ukdhs1&category_id=4325&mfgpid=1226170&chassisid=-1<- the="" 1="" gb="" module="" (28="">

    I read on documentation (http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/inspd530/en/OM/HTML/parts.htm#wp1580857) when I install memory I need to remove the PCI Express x 16 card... I don't understand. I thought adding ram was simple and all you had to do is open the case, insert the ram and secure them correctly and then close the case. Start the pc and it's done.

    I know that my inspiron 530 can have only 4 GB of ram. I have 2 GB of ram for now.

    Is there something I need to know? Is there something different?

    Dell is not offering Win7 drivers for this model. I suggest you go here and read some of the links on the upgrade to Windows 7. Run the Win 7 Upgrade Advisor first to see what it says on your system.

    Without knowing what equipment you have (for example, video card, sound card, network adapter, etc.), it is impossible for anyone to tell you exactly what drivers you need. In some cases, but not all cases, Vista 64-bit drivers can work. The Vista 64 drivers are here. (Confirms that he says again Vista 64-bit upstairs when you load the page!) And if you use your Service tag (do not post here!) you can find a list of drivers installed Dell, so at least you will know what hardware you have, but keep in mind these drivers for Vista 32 bit.

    You can also go here for links to the hardware and instructions to install Win 7. And you can search these forums for discussions on installing Win 7 on the Inspiron 530 to see which other users may have met problems.

  • Adding RAM to my HP 500-336

    [original message]

    Recently, I buy a HP 500-336.

    It came with a single chip 4 Gb. and bought by mistake three 4 Gb. additional chips to get the maximum for the 16 GB model.  Assuming that I'll be able to return, how can I determine which specific Gb 8. chips to buy.  Although I worked on all computers has four sockets, this particular model has only two.

    Ke welalin/Thank you very much!
    [/ original message]

    I added another issue because using the correct chips, I STILL can't get it working properly.

    A 8 Gb. chip will work but adding a second just prevents the machine allowing the operating system to start even get gold in the configuration.    Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

    Here are the specifications of the motherboard of your PC.

    This might work, for example.

    You need a 8 GB, 240-pin DIMM, DDR3 PC3-10600, or PC3 - 12800

    1333 MHz or 1600 MHz respectively.

    ADD: don't forget that your RAM will quickly work the module more slow so either buy two 1333 MHz or 1600 Mhz modules two.

Whether or not please let me know thanks guys.

    Hello

    Vista 32 bit takes a maximum of 4GBs of RAM; with only about 3.22GBs is available for use.

    The rest is used for different hardware features and use of the system by the operating system.

    Windows Vista (32-bit)

    Ultimate: 4 GB

    Company: 4 GB

    Company: 4 GB

    Home Premium: 4 GB

    Home Basic: 4 GB

    Starter: 1 GB

    Vista 64 bit can be used much more RAM.

    Windows Vista (64-bit)

    Ultimate: 128 GB

    Company: 128 GB

    Company: 128 GB

    Home Premium: 16 GB

    Home Basic: 8 GB

    But at this point, your motherboard RAM capacity dictates how you can install the RAM.

  • How to increase the speed of the PC without adding RAM

    PLEASE HOW CAN INCREASE THE SPEED TO RUN THE PC WITHOUT ADDING MORE RAM

    Some reasons for the slow pace of the computer:

    1. computer has not been maintained - http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Maintenance

    2. the computer is infected with the malware - http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

    3. the disk is too full. Remove useless stuff, uninstall unused programs. Do not forget to save!
    http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Backing_Up

    4. flaky third party software. Toolbars and modules are particularly guilty in this area. Uninstall toolbars (Google, Yahoo, ISP brand, etc) and look at what modules are in use in your browser (s).

    5. computer has too many unnecessary programs/processes running in the background. Manage your Startup:

    For XP - How to troubleshoot using the Msconfig in Windows XP utility - http://support.microsoft.com/?id=310560
    The free Autoruns program is very useful for managing your Startup - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/default.mspx

    For Vista/Windows7 - Start Orb > Search box > type: msconfig and when it appears in the results area above, right-click and choose 'run as administrator '. Autoruns is also very useful.

    6. the user runs an inflated/invasive such as Norton and McAfee antivirus program. Replace it with a better program. I recommend NOD32 (commercial) or Avast (free). Avira is also good, but the free version has an unpleasant reminder screen (Google for instructions on how to disable it). The user can also run several real-time antivirus/firewall/security programs.

    7. the user has installed new programs that are processor and/or memory-intensive (Photoshop, AutoCAD, Mathmatica or similar) and does not have the power of the equipment.

    8 drive fails and is in PIO Mode. It's very much slow (like being in 1985). See Hans-Georg Michna here information - http://winhlp.com/?q=node/10

    In addition to the above, see also http://miekiemoes.blogspot.com/2008/02/help-my-computer-is-slow.html

    Note: If the computer has always been slow, in addition to the above user may have bought a machine with a less powerful processor and not enough RAM (memory). The normal use of the computer, 512 MB to 1 GB is sufficient for XP; Vista should have a minimum of 2 GB; Windows 7 is less demanding than Vista, but the minimum of 2 GB should also be used.

  • Video dedicated memory card dropped on adding RAM

    I recently bought my HP G4-2019tx core i5-3210

    His card said he had 2 GB dedicated Ati radeon 7670 m, but the system has shown 2560 MB ofdedicated graphics.

    He had 4 GB of RAM.

    Now,.

    I added an another Kingston 4 GB 1333 MHz RAM and the system less dedicated shows (2304 MB) of graphics memory, but the shared memory is passed to ~ 1700MB ~ 3700 MB

    Is this normal?

    These changes are normal as allocation of memory is dynamically adjusted by the computer and Windows. As long as the dedicated video memory is equal to or larger than 2048MB, you're good to go.

  • HP nc6400 Business Notebook: adding RAM nc6400 and part numbers

    Vista Home Basic 32-bit SP2

    Dear friends, hope that your door!

    I have a HP nc6400 and I would go from 1.5 GB RAM.

    I understand that I can install as much as 4GBs? Let's just say I have add 1 GB or 2 GB how much improvement
    If I could hope?

    I don't want to spend a lot of money with a thisage computer, BUT I know that she will behave better with more RAM.

    Will I need to make changes by adding more RAM?

    Finally, what are the part numbers for the 1 GB and 2 GB memory expansion sticks?

    I would ask the HP numbers for these upgrades of RAM that I couldn't find them anywhere

    Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
    Sincerely, Ralph

    Hi, Ralph:

    At that time, the standard was 1 GB under the keyboard.

    No doubt if a customer wanted to have the phone set to 2 x 2 GB, they would have paid a huge premium for this option.

    Today, with fancy Web page and operating systems graphics devours more memory, 1 GB is next to useless.

  • Adding RAM for MacBook Pro 13 inches without retina

    Hey,.

    I want to buy a MacBook Pro 13 inch without retina. The description says that I can buy the version with 4 or 8 GB of RAM, but I wish I had 16, at least. Is it possible to put a 16 GB of RAM on a MacBook Pro 13 inch without retina?

    Let me know, thanks!

    If this is the model of non-retine of 2012, then you can install 16GBs of RAM, but not by Apple. Then buy the 4 GB model then visit OWC to buy two 8 GB modules to replace the two accompanying him.

    Maximum memory (Real) 16 GB 8 GB (Apple)
    Memory locations 2-204-pin PC3-12800 (1600 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM

    The above is for 2012 non - retina 13 "model.

    Hello

    Your first consideration should be Support HP or HP sales during the consideration of upgrades or replacement of memory. If you want to consider other manufacturers of the best way to avoid memory problems is to contact one of the leading manufacturers of memory. I would recommend that you try the tools of these manufacturers: Corsair, Kingston andCrucial. Once you have determined the DIMMs that you need, then contact commercial or technical support to check that you have selected the correct DIMMS. If you buy directly from manufacturers, then they will stand behind their products.

    Test each dimm one at a time. Try this memory bootable Diagnostics CD. Download memtest86 iso file and burn the disk using Imgburn. Memtest86 4.20 more Installer USB.

    It is preferable to use the DIMMS matched.
