• Satellite M70 (PSM73A-00F007) - Windows 7 recognize only 1 GB rather 1.5 GB

  Hello

  I recently installed (clean) Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit on my laptop. I have installed 1.5 GB but Windows will only recognize 1 GB. In the BIOS is shows 6 cents or so to base memory and 8 cents strange memory. I'm so confused.

  What I do need to update the BIOS and I can update the BIOS?
  Any help would be great.

  As it is, I had to run a 'mobilitymodder.net' hack to get the card to read different than just the Standard VGA adapter...

  Help, please

  Hey,.

  Normally, the BIOS should recognize 1.5 GB of RAM if the modules are working properly. Please check the BIOS again the amount of RAM is recognized.
  Updating the BIOS will not help you, this doesn t affect the amount of RAM.

• HP Envy H8-1549: computer doesn't recognize only half of the new Ram

  Hi all.

  I took a set of ram Ripjaws X 32 gig (4 x 8).  When I install all four chips, only half of them are recognized by the Bios. If I remove two, both of which have not been recognized are visible and working in the same locations they were. It all works, but not all.

  Current configuration: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03666767

  RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231569

  Everything I read on my motherboard and ram has indicated that it is compatible. I updated the Bios and erased the CMS.  I'm a bit of a loss. Am I missing something fundamental?

  What is a tension problem? If so, how can I send it?

  RAM is usually such an easy upgrade. Not so much this time, it seems to me.

  Thank you.

  Hello:

  There is nothing wrong with your PC.

  You bought a 1 GB kit which means you bought 2 x 512 MB = 1 GB chips.

  You need a 2 GB kit which is 2 x 1 GB chips.

  A common mistake made by many of us.

  Remove one of the chips and you should see that it has 512 MB to this topic.

• Satellite A100-551 recognizes only 1 GB of RAM after upgrading memory

  Hello

  I just bought a memory of 1 GB of RAM to upgrade my Satellite 2 * 512 to 1 * 1024 + 1 * 512.
  The brand of memory is Crucial.

  Everywhere where I put my memory (1 GB in slot 1, 512 MB in the 2 slot or vice versa), my computer don't recognize only 1 GB.

  Some ideas on this concern?
  What I have to put the same size of memory in each slot, maybe?

  THX in advance for your help.

  Kind regards.

  I have just re installed Windows XP. Windows installed after three attempts. When I turn on the computer there are three choices of Windows XP. Only the first works how to remove the other two?

  I have a hard drive. At least two partitions. C: 74.7 GB with 63.3 freespace
  D: 74.2 GB with 70.6 freespace
  These are my original specifications of the hard drive: 160 GB (7200 RPM) SERIAL ATA HARD DRIVE WI
  So I suspect there are at least one or more partitions hidden leaving 11.1 GB for hidden partitions!
  Windows is present on both drives C: & D:. In the directory windows on C:, the oldest entry is 19.12.12, 21.43 last 21.12.12, 22.50
  The first entry in the directory windows on D: is 19.12.12, 18.42 the last 21.12.12, 22.40
  I hope that makes sense to someone, any help gratefully received!

  As long as you have verified you dΘmarrez done on the c: / partition, Yes, you can reformat the drive D: / partition using Windows 'disk management '.

  Hi Ken1948,

  1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  2. you receive the error message?

  3 when was the last time it was working fine?

  Check if the problem persists in safe mode.

  A description of the options to start in Windows XP Mode

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315222

  It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

  I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

  How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State

  Reset the computer to start as usual

  (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

  (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

  (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

  (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

• Computer Windows XP does not recognize new all-in-one printer.

  Improved a HP Officejet 7300 all-in-in-one (USB) on a HP Officejet Pro 8600 more all-in-one (wireless), because I had a router (Linksys, Cisco 3000) last year. Summer wireless except for the printer so far. There are not 3 weeks has obtained new 8600 more. Plugged into my desktop computer (Windows XP), but could not understand how to connect my laptop (Windows 7) work. When I finally did, would not work my office! I had deleted my old 7300 in my computer list because I was going to move somewhere else. Whenever I try to add a printer, screen recognizes the new 8600, but after 3-7 tests, it stops and I get: "installing network without success. Printer could not be installed on the network. Click Retry to try to reinstall the printer on the network... "I'm at the end of my mind. The work of COMPUTER technician could not help me - told me to get a gun (he says he knows how to connect those). Right. I really like HP and want to make this work. I have to: reinstall my 7300 to uninstall when I 'install' the 8600 - once AGAIN? (Really?) Please tell me there's something I missed it's look me right in the face. I need to print from my work laptop, and I am currently using the 7300 with a USB connection. Maddening. Thank you.

  Since the static IP address, make sure that the computer has the IP address of the printer.

  This can be done by clicking Start > all programs > HP > Officejet 8600 The folder > IP update.

  This should detect the network printer and enter the new IP address.

  Also, make sure that the firmware is up to date.  This can be done through two methods, but I recommend the update to the computer.  Click here to download the update of the firmware.  If the printer is already updated, the update tool indicates this.  If it is not updated, it will update the printer.  This should be done from a computer that is able to communicate with the printer.

  If you want to update directly from the printer, you can do so by pressing the icon of web services (paper with rings behind it at the top) > settings > printer update > check for update now.  If an update is available, it will update.  If this isn't the case, it will indicate that no update is available.

  The new firmware can solve existing problems and help keep the printer works best.
