driver SATA AHCI of 64 - bit - Compatible with HP 6910P or not?

I have a HP 6910P 64-bit Windows 7 Professional.

I've recently updated the primary drive to a HARD drive to 120 GB for a 128 GB SSD. However, the performance gain was minimal.

Checking, I discovered that AHCI is not enabled and there is an option to do so in the BIOS (to date).

The HP Web site lists a compatible 32-bit version (7.6.0.1011 REV: C) SATA AHCI driver for this model of laptop.

However, despite quoting the same version (7.6.0.1011 REV: C) the 64-bit version does not list the laptop of HP 6910P under the list of compatible hardware.

Is it simply an oversight or is there a valid reason, why the 32-bit version of the driver is compatible so that 64-bit is not?

You are the very welcome, Drambo.

I have provided the driver because I thought that you would just install the driver mode IDE restart and change SATA configuration native from disabled to "Enabled".

Since you changed to "Enabled" SATA Native Mode and then reinstalled W7, you need do nothing else.

How can you tell that the AHCI is enabled?

Go to Device Manager and click on IDE ATA/ATAPI Controller section.

You will find your controller SATA AHCI enumerated (Intel(r) ICH8M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller).

If the BIOS has not been set to AHCI, the controller would have said, it was an ICH8 Serial ATA Controller, or words to that effect.

    I have a Pavilion dv7-6178us laptop 'hand', and I would like to change the existing hard drive.  I understand that it came originally with a 750 GB SATA drive at 5400 RPM, but I inherited mine with only 100 GB SATA, OUCH!  I would like to upgrade my drive to a SSD for the best possible performance, and then add a larger disk for storage.  When you are looking for different drives, I came across SATA I, SATA II and SATA III and I can not figure out which is compatible with my computer or what he came originally with.

    Which SATA (I, II or III) is compatible with the dv7-6178us?

    What is the largest compatible SSD, or should I expect for the best performance?

    Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

    Which SATA (I, II or III) is compatible with the dv7-6178us? Specification the SATA is backward compatible. This means that disks SSD SATA type will work in your notebook. The SSD will be made only to the level of specification SATA your SATA controller is capable of. If the controiller is SATA150 so your SSD SATA600 installed work bandwidth SATA150.

    What is the largest compatible SSD, or should I expect for the best performance? , You can install one with the largest capacity you can afford.  I would recommend not to install a larger than 512 GB. My own brand preferences are Intel, OCZ Technology, Samsung and SSD Crucial.  Purchase of the SSD in upgrade kit is the simplest solution. Upgrade kits come with a SATA to USB cable and cloning software making it a fairly simple process to upgrade the laptop. See the post-it that I wrote at the top of the section of portable equipment for some details on this. 

    What is the greatest player I can additionally ADD the SSD for storage? I recommend you not to install any disk hard legacy with a capacity greater than 1 terabyte. There is no guarantee that a superior who will work as expected.

    The following information is the maintenance guide & computer Support laptop dv7 to refers to the physical size of existing hard drives.

    6.35 cm (2.5 in) drives supports hard drives to 12.7 mm (. 50 inches), 9.5 mm (. 37-in) and thicknesses of 7.0 mm (. 28 - in)

  • Windows XP Pro 32-bit compatible with graphics Diamond Radeon 4650 ATI card

    I keep getting "recovered from serious error" message (blue screen) since it was installed. When I installed it, a message popped up on compatibility with Windows, and it told me to ignore it, then click on 'continue somehow,' I did.  However, given that I had this kind of problem, I took my CPU to the store where I bought it, had them restored my computer, and because it was the graphics card recommended by this reputable computer store of highlyl, I install the card.  I've had problems since then and I think it is the video card.  I bought the graphics card to play games that require a graphics card upgrade.

    1. rather than to guess about the cause of your problems (even if your description of the sequence of events is suggestive), you must provide the complete STOP code on blue screens.  It would have been particularly important to point out the original message "about compatibility".  If the message was that the driver is "unsigned", which can be ignored without risk, but if the message really says something about compatibility, you must read carefully and take seriously.

    2 ATI Radeon HD 4600 Series of diamond is a family of graphics cards, which now is no longer marketed by diamond, although there may be some detailing actions always available.

    3. a Diamond Radeon 4650 card is compatible with Windows XP Pro, the bt - 32 and 64 bits.  Here's the relevant part of the specification for these cards:

    Operating system: WIN 7 32, WIN 7 64, WINVISTA32,.
    WINVISTA64, WINXP, WINXP64, MCE
    System CPU: Min. Intel 2.0 Celeron, Pentium Intel Duo, AMD 3800 + or higher
    Speed: 2.0 Ghz or more rapid system
    Memory: 1024 MB
    Power supply: 400 Watt
    Hard drive space: 480 MB available hard disk space
    CD DVD: YES
    BUS: PCI Express or AGP 8 x

    4. assuming that the rest of the hardware in your computer meets the specifications for the video card, you need to install the correct driver, that is, the driver which is planned for both your card AND your operating system (Windows XP).  Get it here--> http://www.dmmdownload.com/index.php

    Hp134 cartridge is really compatible with photosmart c3183?

    https://h30042.www3.HP.com/SureSupply/CountryChangeSubmit.action?nav&nav#3

    Had an error with the new hp134 - copy color and cartridge blink = not recognized, full reset does not help.

    Contacts are clear.

    Black print cartridge is hp132 - seem to be recognized and it was working before the color cartridge error. But no printing is available even in black and no self test printing - when you press "Cancel" + "color copy" just "power we" blinks a few seconds.

    Hello

    134 ink cartridge is not compatible with your printer, HP Suresupply list as compatible either:

    The 132 black cartridge must be used with the Tricolor 136 only cartridge.

    You can also use the 131 black with the 135 color ink cartridges capacity.

    Any other combination won't work, as you can find below:

  • What type of SSD (2.5 "SATA III or mSATA) is compatible with my Studio XPS 1640?

    Greetings.

    I'm looking to update / replace the original hard drive in my Studio XPS 1640.  I decided on a SSD Samsung 1 TB 850 Evo, but - without opening to the top of my laptop an extra time - I don't know which format is compatible: the 2.5 "SATA III or the mSATA?  I will very happy if someone can tell me which of these SSDS work with my laptop.

    You need a reader 2.5 "SATA - there is no support for type mSATA or readers PCIe card in this system.

    The SATA controller is 3G, so you will not see the full implementation of a SATA 6 G - you'll get only half of that can support the disk - but a SATA SSD will work with the system.

    The system is designed for a 9.5 mm hard drive - you'll need a spacer to mount a 7 mm SSD (some readers from Samsung and Crucial include;  If yours is not that they are just a few dollars).

  • Comments from 64-bit running with binary translation - VT not?

    I was under the impression that with Intel processors, it was not possible to run the operating system client 64-bit without VT hardware support.

    First of all, is that correct?

    If so, when watching an ESX 4.1 run a virtual machine with Windows 2008 R2 (64-bit) from what I can tell of the log files it does work without VT and instead to use binary translation?

    Is it possible, or read the wrong vmware.log file do?

    10:58:29.136 20 August: vmx | MONITOR MODE: enabled modes: BT32 HV

    10:58:29.136 20 August: vmx | MONITORING MODE: user requested modes: BT32 HV HWMMU

    10:58:29.136 20 August: vmx | MONITORING MODE: guestOS favorite modes: HWMMU BT32 HV

    10:58:29.137 20 August: vmx | MONITORING MODE: filtered the list: BT32 HV

    I think the first post on the line with 'filtered' mode to indicate the mode used. Can anyone confirm this?

    The processor is Intel XEON 5110 and in accordance with article (http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-9882) it is not possible to execute 64-guests without VT and all favorite modes use VT and memory virtualization software (TPS, since the absence of EFA in the older CPU).

    I have not changed the options CPU/MMU virtualization on the virtual machine, is by default.

    So is this normal or just me be confused?

    In the document "software and hardware Techniques for x 86 Virtualization" (http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/software_hardware_tech_x86_virt.pdf), page 8, I found that the term BT32 is used on Intel hosts to show the difference of BT64, which won't be possible on Intel. I have no AMD to test, but the vmware.log will show just "BT" or "BT32/64"?

    AMD systems will be just "BT".

    If it's a 64-bit operating system then the passage to the long mode would probably be early enough in the boot reasonably? As with 32-bit processors started in real mode 16-bit and then move to 32-bit mode very protected early perhaps. Why the hypervisor running in mode binary translation for a few seconds? (When we know that it is a 64-bit operating system in the virtual machine)?

    I remember well, this decision was made so that customers 32 bits would be run in the preferred mode, even if the guest OS type was incorrectly specified as a 64-bit guest OS type.

    I found this online now and the "dynamic" means that it could change between software and hardware virtualization CPU if necessary?

    "Dynamic" may seem more powerful as it is.  The passage of the BT to the HV mode mode is done only once (when entering long mode), and we never switch back.  (Well, go back us to BT for some things, like the real-address mode, but it's still true mode HV.)

    1 does 64 bit VMs always start in dynamic mode is my XEON being older with slower VT?

    This is because your Xeon has long entrance-VM/VM / output latency.  HV is the beginning of default with Penryn (CPU 23 model).

    2. can I tell in the log file that the change of BT32 to VT has actually made? In other words, I thought earlier I could identify the virtualization mode through the lines of MONITOR in vmware.log, but now I know not at all!

    Hello

    can someone help me find a driver SATA AHCI controller for a fresh install of Win7 64 bit.
