Can not put 4 GB of ram in the Pavilion a6600f?

My Pavilion a6600f came with 3 GB of ram and 2 GB key died... so I decided to upgrade to 4 GB. According to everything I read - Vista Home premium x 64 will accept ok. Then, I studied the type of appropriate ram (SDRAM ddr2 - pc2-6400 240-pin) - I also confirmed that the motherboard accept (FoxconnNapa Mcp73M01H1) and got a pair of 2x2gb.  BUT... when I try to put 4 GB of ram, I get either no charge for windows or black screen.  I checked that the new ram works and can use one of the 2 GB with my old 1 GB = 3 gb very well.  Why can't I install 4 GB?  Are there settings or something I'm missing?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hope this will help you. Just looking for answers for you...

Have you tried the two sticks with the 1 GB?  They both work?

Are the two sticks of DDR2?  No errors?

It's Non - ECC memory only, no?

Because as you mentioned, there is no Microsoft bug.  If I were you, I bring them back and try another brand.  Upgrade memory should be a very simple.  Nevermind, you are having so many problems with it.  I hope this helps.

  • Bug. Can not put two edge animations animate on the same page

    Alrighty. Just thanked Adobe for fixation sensitive question scaling. Now, it seems to be a new. When I put two animations dashboard run on the same page, they both disappear completely from the view! Both in mode live view (or which saw fluid grid) and trying to get a glimpse into any browser. The responsive design works fine but if I put two animations on the same page that the two just disappear! GONE!

    Perhaps there is a code that I can use to prevent this. I did a number of tests during the last hour. My smile (from the reactive solution) is now again a frown. I can't keep working like that. Please let me know if there is something I am doing wrong. I have two animations on a page without worries prior to this version, but the delicate design did not work properly. The responsive design work NOW, but I can't have MORE than ONE ANIMATION on the same page. Thanks for your time. Best regards, Julian.

  • Can not put computers wired and wireless on the same homegroup

    I have a newbie question. I can't figure out how to put a computer cable and a computer in the same wireless Group of residential. Here is my configuration:

    I installed Windows 7 Pro on two computers, one connected to the LAN from my router (Linksys WRT610N) port and the other has a wireless-N card. Both can connect to internet just fine. When I click on 'Network card' in the window network & sharing, two computers appear and the diagram of the switches and router seems correct. However, since they are not on the same 'local' network, Windows 7 does not offer the possibility to join the homegroup and each other.

    Having partially abandoned on homegroup, I tried to use usernames and passwords to share files between 2 computers (instead of homegroup.) If I click on 'Network' of the computer wireless, wired computer appears, with the folder that I set to 'shared '. (Partial success). However, if I click on 'Network' of the computer cable, the wireless computer does NOT appear.

    All I want to do is to share data between the two computers. What is the best way to set up the network?

    Thank you!

    Don't know which question you answered, but you obviously did not read my question before you posted this reply directly from the windows help page. Fortunately, I answered my own question.

    After much reading, I suspected a firewall problem. I have reinstalled Windows on the computer before installing the same Norton security suite and wireless, I had used before, I tried sharing folders again and voila! It worked. So, I'm not going to install all _ which comes with security suite Norton and go instead for a simpler solution of an antivirus program like AVG combined with the firewall that comes with Windows 7.
  • can not put a new tab to open the default google search

    I found these instructions:
    In case you need more than one step by step:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste about: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

       Page thumbnails (default) => about:newtab
       Blank tab => about:blank
       Built-in Firefox home page => about:home
       Any other page => full URL to the page
    

    Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked.

     However as per the attached screen shot, I do not have a preference "browser.newtab.url"
    

    Hi, 41 of Firefox, you must use an add-on like tab override (browser.newtab.url replacement), to make changes to the page tab.

    Once installed, open the Add-ons (Ctrl + Shift + A) Manager > Extensions, and then look for the new tab override and click Options to set your preference.

    Note, if you want only the new tab to be the same as your home page, you can use the Add on new tab homepage instead.

    You will then need to restart Firefox for all changes to take effect.

    If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

    You can "downgrade" to win 7 BUT dependent on the Lim, it may void your warranty and there is perhaps no drivers for your computer with windows 7.

    Putting aside the modern splash screen (which you can ignore at startup) win 7 and win 8 are very similar.  If you don't like the modern user interface, you don't need to use it.

  • W510 can not put primary monitor on the right

    I have a W510 in MiniDock Plus series 3. The operating system is Windows XP.

    I can activate my external monitor using the NVIDIA Control Panel. The page "Set Up several screens ' allows me to extend the desktop as 'A large horizontal Desktop' or 'configured independently.

    Using "Set apart" it is possible to choose either "laptop display + external" or "external + computer laptop display.» The screen that appears first is that logically on the left.

    Underneath, there is a distinct choice for the main screen of Windows.

    Because my office is configured with the laptop on the external monitor to the right and the left, I want to have ' laptop display + external ', with 'external' as main display.

    Among the four possibilities, it is one that does not. When I choose the laptop on the left and the external as primary, the laptop is always a priority.

    If I choose as the main external, can I have the phone as secondary, but it is logically to the right, but physically to the left. So to move a window to the left screen I have to drag it out of the right. I can not physically reconfigure my workspace to bring the laptop to the right of the external display.

    What Miss me?

    This seems to be a bug in the NVidia (3.3.452.15) Control Panel. It cannot apply the correct setting.

    The solution is to change the position of the monitor using the windows display settings tab properties drag the monitor icons so that the '2' monitor is on the left. Then it will be applied correctly, and the NVidia control panel will be able to read the configuration.

  • I have a faulty ram (top) slot for a Mid 2012 Macbook Pro 13 "i5.  Can I install a 8 GB Ram in the slot below or is maximally 4 GB?

    I have a faulty ram (top) slot for a Mid 2012 Macbook Pro 13 "i5.  Can I install a 8 GB Ram in the slot below or is maximally 4 GB?

    This was after the 3 beep error and I couldn't restart the Mac with one of the 2 GB of Ram into the lower slot.

    Is there a way to test if the top housing is faulty or just dirty?

    Thank you

    Yes, the MBP will work with a single module of RAM installed, but there will be a slight performance decrease.  A MBP 2012 will accept a module of 8 GB RAM.

    Is there a way to test if the top housing is faulty or just dirty?

    Install each RAM module individually in each slot, leaving the other empty.  If the two RAM modules work in a slot and not the other, the slot is faulty.  Sometimes the adjustment screw can resuscitate the slot.  If this is not the case, make an appointment at an Apple store for a FREE evaluation.

    Ciao.
