Comments XP not recognize new allocation of memory and hard disk size

I'm under Fusion 3 on a new IMac 21.5 "running 10.6.1 with 8G of RAM with XP SP3 guest.  Just migrated since late 2006 MacBook 2.06 merger to help Mac running migration wizard, then upgraded to Fusion 3.

Main problem is that when I updated to the size of the hard drive of 40G per 100 G and changed the memory allocation of 2G to 6G, Windows operating system does not change.  Windows reports 3G memory and 40G hard drive.

Other questions:

OS (or VMware) is also unstable and crashes, sensitive sentence without indicating CPU heavy and sometimes does not restart, requiring force to leave.  Usually, will run 30-45 minutes before crash. One application I run is Revit 2010 (which is also unstable, has just installed service release 2).

Tried to install new comments, but get the message "No boot device" - seen a thread for this and create the ISO image.

David: I can't help you with the RAM, but I had the same problem when I expanded my virtual HD 20 GB to 30 GB.  Windows XP always thought 20GB and called the rest "unallocated space".

There is a beauty of a freeware program called Easeus Partition Master - http://download.cnet.com/Easeus-Partition-Master-Home-Edition/3000-2248_4-10863346.html?tag=mncol%3bpop&cdlPid=10982635.  Run on the Windows side (at least it worked for XP) and it should show 2 discs.  Highlight the one you want to extend, click on (expand / resize), drag the divider to full size of HD and then 'apply' and he has done the partition in about 5 seconds for me.  Problem solved.

    My HP Presario f 700 laptop does not recognize my CD/DVD drive and will not burn or play CDs or DVD movies.

    I have a lightscribe, CD/DVD player, and I started having problems about a month ago... I tried to burn a lightsribe CD and my computer told me that I didn't have a CD Lightscribe drive (I!)... then when I just tried to burn the music on the CD, he didn't do it either... Finally a week ago, I tried to play a movie on my laptop, and that does not work either.

    When I insert in the film or the cd, the drive lights up and I can hear the work, but it is as if she has no connection with my laptop and my laptop is not picking up the CD/DVD drive try to play a movie or a cd.

    A friend suggested that I go to the HP website and am trying to download a driver, but I didn't know what to do once I got to this website, and I don't know if it will work.

    If you know how to solve this problem, or if you have had a similar problem with your computer, please help, thank you.

  • Envy 15 t: upgrade memory and hard drive HP ENVY 15t

    Hi guys, I just bought the HP Envy 15 not touch t (ae100) with the following characteristics:

    -CPU & graphics: 6th generation Intel Core i7-6700HQ Quad Core processor + Intel HD Graphics 530

    -Memory: 8 GB DDR3L - 1 DIMM

    -Hard drive: 1 TB 5400 RPM hard drive

    I have a few questions about it. First of all, my laptop doesn't have a vacant unit of m2 where I can insert an SSD and if not a SATA 3 2.5-inch SSD fits instead of the hard disk without additional fixing or need support.

    Second, is there an empty memory slot to insert a 8 GB of additional ram.

    Any kind of assistance will be extremely useful and thanks in advance.

    No crack m2. From the Manual:

    Only dedicated support of storage SATA m2 (Port 0) (models with i7 processors and 4 GB memory graphics)

    So if you have Intel HD video only you do not have a slot m2.

    Here's the manual for your use:

    Repair manuals

    Yes on the memory 8 GB 2d module:

    Both not accessible/upgradable module DDR3L-1600 slots double channel memory support 16 GB of RAM in the following conƭgurations ● 16384-Mo (8192 MB × 2)

    Access to the memory and hard drive are obtained by removing the lower cover. Technically this is not allowed to the end user if security is jeopardized.

    A standard 2.5 inch SATA SSD to integrate perfectly in the original hardware for hard disk 5400 RPM. It is a highly recommended update. The 16 GB of RAM not so much, but it's one of those things "might as well" If you are determined to go there.

  • Portege 7220 does not recognize the Extension of memory (Kingston)

    Hello

    Recently, I wanted to update my old notebook, Portege 7220 with a 256 MB Stick of Kingston Ram. According to their website, it should work, but the machine does not recognize the memory at all. (just using internal 64 MB).

    I can't upgrade the Bios either, because when I press F12 when the computer starts, it cannot read the floppy drive in the docking station. Do I need a USB floppy drive for that? I tried with a usb key, but it does not work. is there a possibility to redo an update of windows? (Comp running Windows 2000)

    Thanks for your help, much apprechiated.

    Only the TRAD of the BIOS version exists for this Portege.
    This means that you will not be able to update the Windows operating system running, but you will need an external floppy drive to perform these updates.

    Regarding your problem of memory;
    Check this box:
    http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=5388&ft=m&St=3

    You can find the compatible memory module. It s a PC100 144 pin SODIMM.

    Maybe you used the not-entirely-compatible module or the module is defective

  • Windows XP Home edition does not recognize new HDD on the Qosmio G20

    I have a Qosmio G20/390LS bought a year ago, when I worked at the Japan, I tried to upgrade the hard drive with a new HD 100 GB Hitachi SATA but I faced a problem that XP does not recognize the HD.
    For your reference, the Bios sees the new HD, when I install the XP operating system I load the driver downloaded from the Toshiba Web site but no way RAID with F6... XP does not recognize the HD.

    Do you have any idea how to fix?
    Thank you

    Hello

    Computers portable Japanese are unknown to me, but if this laptop comes with two hard drives and RAID option do not forget the good option is set in the BIOS. Without the right BIOS setting you will not be able to install the OS.

    On Qosmio G30, I was able to install Vista when for two HDD HARD drive settings were 0-RAID-1. Check it please and let us know.

    Hi, I have a problem with one of the TECRA 8200. The machine only recognizes the first module and not the second 128 M I tried form to upgrade memory up to 256 M. module is compatible because it works without problem with an other TECRA 8200!

    I updated the bios to version 1.6 but there is no way: the PC does not recognize the second module!

  • My laptop does not recognize new Sandiscs - what am I missing

    I recently bought 3 new Sandisk SD Ultra 16GB 10 speed but the card reader in my computer hp laptop Windows XP, does not recognize them.

    They work fine in my camera.
    The original disks are 2 GB and they work fine in the camera and the computer.
    What Miss me?

    You don't mention what service pack you have, but if you have sp 3, the most likely reason is that the card reader in your laptop is too old to read new (> 2 GB) SDHC cards.  Connected by USB readers are fairly inexpensive, just be sure that the one you get includes the ability to read SDHC cards

  • system does not recognize new hard drive

    HD has failed (WD 80 GB) so I installed a new a 250 GB WD. I checked with WD HD replacement is compatible, Dell confirms that the jury will have the biggest HD (I've updated the bios). The Bios the WD 250 HD, but when I try to load Windows XP Home Edition (SP1) I get none found after the part of hard disk initialization? Q: we told me that Windows XP SP1 will recognize not a HD 250 GB and I need to install XP SP2 or more... is this true and if so is there anyway around this problem as I only have SP1? Thank you

    Since you have a Dell, you can contact them and see if they will send you an updated XP installation disc. The alternative is to integrate SP3 into the XP SP1 support and create a new XP installation disc which will include SP3. It is not difficult.

  • T60 not recognize new HD

    I installed the new HD in the Notebook Lenovo T60 and it does not recognize. Inslalled in another machine and it recognizes that the HD, installed the old HD in Lenovo T60 and recognizes. Why?

    Size has nothing to do with it, T60 is quite capable of accepting more than 200GB disks.

    What version of Windows you are trying to install? the CD/DVD can be bad. The HARD drive seems OK as linux has been able to recognize, I think maybe leaving the BIOS you forget to save the settings, check this.

    What really happens when you start with a disc with the disc in Windows? the installation program still works? the installer says that it cannot find the drive? you get an error message or just a white screen? In addition, what is the brand of the drive? is it compatible with T60? provide us the complete model number please!

    Keep us informed.

  • PC does not recognize new monitor

    I have a Compac PC under Windows 7 Home Premium.  I had to replace a generic monitor who was dying and buy a DELL E2314HSC1 monitor.  The seller assured me that it works with one computer other than DELL.
    The PC recognizes only as the generic monitor attached previously.  DELL Manager software installed, but does not work because the PC still "thinks" the old monitor is attached.
    I thought of uninstalling the old monitor and see if it then acknowledge the DELL, but I fear that this then I would not no matter which monitor access at all if it does not recognize.
    It is attached via cable with blue sheets.  My PC does not have entries for the one with the gray caps.  (Sorry, I don't know what either of those called, but I hope you experts out there know what I mean).
    Any suggestions?

    You try to install the E2314H driver.
