DM4-2165dx: is the upgrade of my possible processor?

Is there a possible way to upgrade my current "Intel (r) Core i3-2330 CPU @ 2.20 GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.2GHz" to an Intel i5 processor? And if I am able to upgrade my current Memory (RAM) get in anyway?

Sorry, but even in situations where (1) upgrade processors can be used in a laptop computer, and (2) these processors can be purchased in the retail channel, this upgrade involves usually completely disassemble the laptop, including the removal of any solution of cooling for the processor - and that can often lead to damage support for the processor if not done correctly.

If you are not experienced to completely disassemble and reassemble a laptop, then I would strongly discouraged to try, there are a lot of delicate parts and connectors that are easily broken.

More - according to the manual Maintenance and maintenance for your PC, there already a processor i5 inside, and the only upgrade would be an i7: http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-dm4-Entertainment-Notebook-PC-series/5145680/model/5171100/manuals

  • DM4-2165dx: upgrade Memory (RAM)

    I think the upgrade from 2x3gb (6 GB of total Ram) that came with my laptop when I bought it. The max that can take the laptop's 8 GB of Ram, so I was wondering what I need to get some a rendering for the dm4-2165dx? Or I can buy a regular 2 x 4 GB (8 GB Ram) to a store of electronics for laptops?

    Okay, let's start with the idea that you have modules of 2 x 3 gig... No, it's a 4 GB and a 2 gig. No such thing as 3 modules together. There is also no such thing as regular memory made for laptops. Memory comes in configurations and different speeds. Your laptop uses of the DDR3-1333 SO-DIMM:

    Supports up to 8 GB of memory system support dual channel DDR3 - 1333 MHz.

    In order to get max of 8 GB you throw your module 2 gig and put another one of these in there:

    4 GB 621569-001

    http://www.Amazon.com/HP-VH641AT-4-GB-DDR3-PC3-10600/DP/B0030L3B8E/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&QID=1451223106&SR=8-2&keywords=621569-001

    https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=Y91mO9JyUak

    You can probably find the memory that you can use in a local store if you just let them know you need of low density of the DDR3-1333 SO-DIMM (8 black blocks on the side of the chip, not 4).

  • DM4-2165dx: good day. I want to reinstall win 7, the slower after 5 years.

    I would like to reinstall win 7 64 bit on my pavilion laptop, without losing my license key.

    [Personal information deleted] is the serial number of my laptop.

    I bought the laptop in us, 14/01/2012, Charleston and I still have the original receipt on me. I live in Hungary.

    I want to get the right to reinstall the way for my win 7 Home premium oa.

    I contacted directly to microsoft technical support and they sent me this House Home premium English sp1 x 64 iso and me says to contact HP, because I have to make sure that Hp supports the reinstall, I need to know, how many times can I reinstall my OS, because it may be limited by HP.

    I also have a plan to replace my hard drive soon, to avoid the old hdd to cause problems of its natural damping.

    More information: I couldn't save the laptop, I bought a year before the years chooseable available on the page of the commercial register,

    so

    I could not contact with chat support,

    That is why I take the issue here.

    I could not redeem the media Support HP - order software support and pilot here, that address different purchase and delivery can be a problem, I think.

    That I bought the laptop in the United States, but live in Hungary, I do not want to have problems with product registration home address, address of purchase and etc...

    It would be great to download the iso right from a link, if I was able to reinstall the operating system, without waiting for the drive.

    Or if the iso of windows provided by windows 7 is good, and I will not lose my windows license, it is also a good option.

    Or anything else that can do the reinstall on the right track.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the HP Support forum. Welcome aboard!

    I just checked and it works - you can purchase media recovery using the following URL from here > > http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Pavilion-dm4-Entertainment-Notebook-PC-series/5145680/model/5171100

    Price is 25 USD - 3 DVDs but the questions is that the system provides only U.S. addresses shipping. Since you're outside the States, this could be a problem.

    I also checked that it is available on a 3rd party site that might be able to ship outside of the U.S.. > > http://www.computersurgeons.com/p-22105-windows-7-64b-recovery-kit-669481-001-for-hp-pavilion-entertainment-notebook-pc-model-number-dm4-2165dx.aspx

    Another option that will probably work now on the existing HARD drive:

    Each HP computer that has Windows preinstalled comes with recovery partitions that can be used to reinstall Windows to factory default condition. It's called HP recovery process. If the partitions are still there and intact, they will do the trick for you and you will be able to recover now. Here's how to perform a recovery > > http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01867418

    > > http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01867418#AbT3

    Essentially - restart the computer and as soon as it starts booting keep hitting the Esc key (such as tap-tap-tap) to access the HP boot menu. Choose F11 - recovery and follow the on-screen instructions.  Backup your data before restoring.

    In case you decide to replace the HARD drive with an SSDor a new one, then you can the previous image player and to transfer the image to the new free software like Clonezilla > > www.clonezilla.org

  • Satellite T135-SP2909C - HD to the SSD upgrade, is it possible?

    Hi guys.
    I own a Toshiba Satellite T135-SP2909C.
    The hard drive is broken, so I think buy a SSD drive, but I wonder if it will work on my laptop.
    How would I know if the SSD hard drive work with my laptop?

    I'm thinking of buying this SSD drive.
    Crucial RealSSD C300 CTFDDAC128MAG - 1 1 2.5 ITS (128 GB, SATA)

    If it is not possible to use SSDS with this laptop, think you on Seagate Momentus XT 500 GB?
    Seagate ST95005620AS Momentus XT 500 GB Solid State Drive hybrid - 500 GB, 7200 RPM, SATA 3 Gb/s

    I guess this drive work on my laptop, but still, I'm not 100% sure.

    Does anyone have to upgrade this laptop to a disc SSD or Seagate Momentus XT?

    Concerning

    I agree with Akuma. In General, upgrading should be possible, but due to compatibility issue no one can say with certainty if some SSD works properly or not.

    I just hope that some other T135 owners will offer more specific information about these updates.

    Talk with your dealer and ask if there is possibility to make SSDS if something is wrong.

    Please post comments on the upgrade.

    1. the wireless card needs the HP Connection Manager software installed so it can be activated by using the software, then you should be able to install the driver or the Terminator post will be installed.

    15 Aug-2914, I had some freezes and problems of instability and learned on the web that a upgrade type installation could clean debris from its difficult use of several years.  I went on the website anytime upgrade Microsoft and bought an Anytime Upgrade for W7 64 SP1 PROFESSIONAL and installed from the Internet Anytime site.

    This morning, I restarted Windows and experienced some of the friezes original and instability... I reasoned that if I restarted the install of Win 7 Premium and careful I might be able to check updates and fix the problem. This was not possible.

  • Is it possible to convert a LWAPP AP without the upgrade tool

    I have a considerable number of access points to convert. All access points are new, so that they have the MIC of Cisco. So I should be able to just TFTP image on access points, but I can't find any info on this.

    It would be much faster for me that I could make dozens of AP at the same time, and I wouldn't have to deal with the upgrade tool quite flaky. Did anyone done this before?

    In fact you can do. The main goal of the upgrade tool is to generate a SSC and add the string SSC to the controller. If you have a microphone, the upgrade tool allows to bypass the process of generation of SSC and executes TFTP. You can telnet to an IOS AP and run

    "archive download-SW tftp://x.x.x.x/c1240-rcvk9w8-tar.123-11.JX1.tar.

    and the IOS AP basis during the restart will load the code base LWAPP, join the controller and improve itself to match the revision of the code of the controller. Now I don't know if this is supported, but your initial question was about the possibility. So yes, that it can be done without the upgrade tool, as long as you have an AP with microphone installed.

    Good luck.

  • Is it possible to upgrade Enterpsie from Windows Vista to Windows 7 using the upgrade HP program?

    Hi all

    I want to upgrade to Windows 7 Windows Vista Enterprise. I read on the ability to upgrade to Windows 7 at low administrative cost by HP upgrade program. However, the site mentions that I can only upgrade from Vista Home Premium, business or ultimate edition. My laptop HP (the EliteBook 8530w) had Windows Vista Enterprise is installed. So I want to know if it is possible for me to upgrade to Windows 7 using the upgrade HP program.

    I bought this laptop from my University. They had a program, so we could buy our laptop with many applications that we need for our study pre-installed. It could be that they have replaced the Vista HP installed with Windows Vista Business version. If this is the case, is it possible for me to somehow re - install the previous version of Vista, so I can still take part in the upgrade program?

    I bought my laptop at my University. They have installed all the software and it is possible that they also installed Windows Vista business. When I looked at the description of the Elitebook 8530w, he mentioned Windiows Vista Ultimate as the operating system. So I am clueless why my University is using Windows Vista Enterprise.I have decided that I will contact HP support on this issue, to see if I can install Vista Ultimate and then upgrade to Windows 7.

    UPDATE: I contacted just HP support by phone. The Elitebook 8530w comes with Vista Bussiness installed and they send me an installation disc within 14 days. They have also described here it might be possible to do a clean install with upgrade cd, although they did not know for some. I think I'll try the clean install first, and if that doesn't work, I'll install Windows Vista Bussiness and then perform the upgrade.

    In any case, I want to thank everyone for the help they provided.

  • Photos for Mac behaves VERY strangely since the upgrade to Sierra

    Hi all.

    I have improved my mid 2010 MacBook Pro for macOS Sierra September 21.

    The first time I launched the Photos app after the upgrade, I got the usual message on photo library updated, but when that reaches 100%, I noticed that he was missing a large number of thumbnails in my library. The photos in question were display in miniature (or 'moments') view as pale gray rectangles with a cloud icon in their breast.

    I don't immediately panic, because I assumed that they would gradually repopulate for a little while. I got "Storage optimize Mac", the value of preferences so all of my original pictures must be in iCloud. I have a Time Capsule, make automatic backups, and I made a backup Time Machine on which, immediately before the upgrade, so I am reasonably confident that I did not really lose my photos, (and all of my pictures and their thumbnails are present & correct on my iPhone).

    But, almost a fortnight after the upgrade, most of my thumb nails is always reported missing since the Photos of Mac application, which makes it very difficult to find pictures of course.

    Last night I noticed that the Photos app showed 'Uploading photos 10 985 nnnnnn' at the foot of the view of the times, with the first digit decreases slowly, so I disabled the options to ensure that my Mac doesn't go to sleep and I let it run until the download was complete energy saving. Then, he showed "updated... "at the foot of the view of the times for a while.

    I was hoping that my thumb nail would be back after that, but they are not!

    It seems that the Photos app is not sync with my iCloud storage, for any reason, or at least if it does not in fact what it has synchronized.

    A double click on these thumbnails blank to open the photo is not consistent either. On some that I try to open, they do not open, and when I return to the thumbnail display the thumbnail is now also. But on others I try to open I just see a completely white area where the photo should be. However (and this is really weird!) when I return to the thumbnail display after those I see very very briefly the photos as they will shrink to the size of the thumbnail, and then they are virgins thumbnails with clouds still...

    I wonder if I should change the preference of Photos of 'optimization of storage' to 'download the originals' in an effort to recover my thumb nails. It seems that I have almost 62 GB of free space on my Mac, and my Gallery of photos shows that there are currently 31GB. Or do I have to re - install the Photos app? (Is it possible?)

    Or is there a better solution to the problem please?

    Thank you for all the helpful tips.

  • Random OS freeze or crash after the Upgrade of the Sierra

    Since the upgrade to Sierra, I started experiencing random freezes or crashes, the operating system.

    In general, I keep the mouse control (connected via trackpad), for at least a certain period of time. However, only the movement is possible - applications cannot be selected, there is no reaction to the clicks, etc. Attempts to pass via cmd + tab don't produce no result.

    I tried waiting for the system to respond. She finally slept, then crashed with a wake on the lack of sleep.

    The other answer is a hard reset by holding down the power until button a restart is forced.

    I ran disk in rescue mode utility, and he reported no problems with the disk. I've yet to try some of the more esoteric answers as reset NVRAM and so on... which is probably intended. I saw a report that said this problem was happening with El Capitan, and there is no resolution. I don't know if it's the same problem carried over, or a new.

    I got exactly the same problem you describe, on an iMac of retina of 2014. I've updated all non - App Store applications I have thought (and removed dozens of them), disabled launch points, unplugged my USB hub, downloaded EtreCheck (very useful application, incidentally) and road to combing through reports in the Library/Logs folder. On a Reddit thread on the problems with the Macs wake from sleep after installation of Sierra, someone suggested using the following command in a Terminal: kextstat | grep - v com.apple

    The command shows you what non-Apple kernel extensions are running in the background. Extensions of core apps such as Airparrot, strap, and duo caused problems with macOS Sierra. In my case, officer was running a kernel extension - then I deleted this app and went through my library/LaunchAgents and records of the library/LaunchDaemon, remove all items launch left by home and others deleted apps.

    EtreCheck reports said that so-called SIMBL caused several accidents. So I got rid of this, by following the instructions on the site SIMBL.

    Here's the problem: even after all these efforts (and each variant reset, I could think of) troubleshooting, nothing has changed. My Mac always has exactly the symptoms you describe, upon awakening from sleep. Every time.

    In the end I just gave up and restored my iMac to its State, 4 days ago in a backup using Time Machine. (It took 12 hours). With Dropbox, I didn't lose all of the work I've done in the meantime. So, I am now running a stable El Capitan, with an understanding to why people wait a few months before installing the latest OS updates.

    Sorry I can't offer more useful troubleshooting options - but perhaps some things that did not help me could help you anyway? Thanks for posting: it seems that the Sierra has been a pretty smooth update for most people, so I guess we're just out of luck?

    I have a MacBook Pro (15 inch, early 2011) which works very well on the Mountain Lion for a long time. I finally got round to upgrading to El Capitan last week: directly to 10.11.6. A few days later he just powered down without warning while I was working. He was so very well for a few days, but then made several times in the last 48 hours.

    I am moderately sure it happens only when it is on battery (it did not in the past hours 8 while that plugged). Whenever it happens, that there is no warning and the Mac then fine restarts (manually) - Although the clock resets always in 1970 until he can contact an NTP server. One of the curious side effects is that my PostScript fonts were blank on the screen in Excel for a few reboots yesterday but then OK once again!

    No hardware has changed. Major software change is only El Capitan and possibly an iStat Menus update.

    I have reset PRAM and SMC. I ran the short AHT. I disassembled the machine and clean the fans. they were OK, but the problem seems to occur when the Mac is hot.

    Spotlight and Time Machine sometimes seemed to be struggling for the upgrade, and I also saw rpcsvchost with 100% of a core for a while. The machine feels sometimes slow - but for the last 8 hours, it was very good. The only model that I put in place, is that it seems to occur only on battery; It's even happened then that the Dock (etc.) were loading after logging in after an unexpected shutdown.

    The other thing common is in the newspapers every time:

    Cause of previous stop:-128

    I scanned a number of related posts to aspects of it, but do not look at who blames El Capitan rather than material. Yet, many people reported this kind of problem after the upgrade... Coincidence?

    Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    Cause of previous stop:-128

    A negative stop code generally indicates a hardware failure. Have the Apple to assess your Mac. The fix may be as simple as a spare battery.

  • After the upgrade to Firefox 36.0.4, it automatically installed noscript

    After the upgrade to Firefox 36.0.4, it removes all my existing extension of the add-on.
    In addition, 'noscript' has been installed automatically, and there is no way to remove it.
    The add-on "noscript" does not appear in one of the extension add-on for me disable/remove it.

    I tried to add some of the add-on noscript for the module additional noscript will appear in the
    Firefox extension page so that I could remove it, but does not remove the
    original NoScript that comes with Firefox 36.0.4

    If all goes well, there is a way for the user to remove this and is not part of Firefox 36.0.4.
    At least allow the user the options of its use, or delete it.

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

    If possible to uninstall your current version of Firefox to clean the Windows registry and settings in the security software.

    • Do NOT remove the "personal data" when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.

    If you keep problems also create a new profile.
