EliteBook 820 G1: RAM upgrades

I recently tried an upgrade to 16 GB RAM.They were bought as a set from ADATA, and on the chip it reads DDR3 1600(11) 8GX16 SO-DIMM.  I do realize the chips run much faster than the standard ones that comewith the unit, (the unit came with 4GB running at 1333mHz, and I upgraded it to 8GB while I have 2x more RAM running at 1600mHz), but I am looking to upgrade thissystem to a light unit I can use for engineering tools, so the extra speed is very important to me.

After installing the chips, the unit a UEFI warning screen came up on bootup saying there were invalid DDR3 RAM chips in the system. I then had a choiceto shut down or continue running.  I picked the continue running as I didn'tsee any major issues, and I knew the system would stay in a cool area. However the factI would have to deal with that screen everytime I boot the system is a pain.

Is there a true problem I may not be awareof, perhaps due to the speed of the chips themselves burning something out? Or is it simply the system doing a check for certain brands of memory? If that is the case, is there a way to shut off the UEFI warning screen since there is not an issuethat needs to be dealt with?

Fortunately, a support person finally found the specs for this device.  It turns out that, even if the system can handle 16 GB of RAM, it was not for that amount, it was made only to 8 GB.  However, in view of the fact, I can get a drive much more for her for a ridiculously low price, more CPU running at 2.5 GHz, I can still do what I have to do with the system.  I'll just add a SD card to the mix for SDBoost, and I'll be OK.

  • HP 8730w Elitebook SSD and RAM

    Hello

    I have a HP Elitebook 8730w and I recently installed Windows 8. I think to upgrade the RAM (from 4 GB to 8 GB) and failed hard drive (SSD). What RAM & SSD are compatible with my system?

    As I saw the RAM support must be • DDR2 PC2 - 6400 CL = 6 • Unbuffered • NON - ECC DDR2-800 1, 8V.

    With respect to the SSD, SATA II is supported, but what happens if I install a SATA III SSD? If it will support on my system? Y at - it advice for any brand name that will be more compatible with the problems of free?

    Hello

    It is a very good source and they guarantee:

    http://www.crucial.com/upgrade/HP+-+Compaq-memory/EliteBook/EliteBook+8730w+mobile+workstation-upgrades.html

    SATA III being backward compatible, very sure you SATA III. You have to pay a little more and can only get SATA II speed. You can run a small program called PCwizard to get the correct information on your machine.

    Hello

    According to me, you are subject to the 32-bit memory limit that occurs in Windows.

    The limit is 4 GB, so you would need a 64 bit OS to make full use of your 8 GB.

    Mark Russinovitch, a highly respected person wrote...

    32-bit Client effective memory limits

    While 4 GB is the limit for 32-bit client SKUS, the effective limit is actually lower and depends on the chipset of the system and the devices connected. The reason is that the physical address plan includes not only the RAM but memory of the camera as well, and x 86 and x 64 memory card all the unit below the limit to address 4 GB to stay compatible with 32-bit operating systems that do not know how to handle addresses above 4 GB. If a system has 4 GB of RAM and devices, such as video, audio and network cards that implement windows in their memory of the apparatus which amount to 500 MB, 500 MB of the 4 GB of RAM will reside above the limit to address 4 GB, as shown below:

    The result is that, if you have a system with 3 GB or more of memory and you use a 32-bit Windows client, you may not be to the benefit of all of the RAM. On Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Vista RTM, you can see how many RAM Windows facing it in the Properties dialog box system, page Manager's performance of tasks and, on Windows XP and Windows Vista (including SP1), in Msinfo32 and Winver utilities. On Windows Vista SP1, some of these places changed RAM installed, rather than RAM available, such as documented in this Knowledge Base article.

  • Satellite R630-13F - RAM upgrade

    Hi all

    My R630 is faced with a newly added software for Photoshop (CS5 version). Whenever it is quite slow to open and try to merge the picture for the economy.

    I was wondering if I can upgrade the RAM. With a very limited knowledge, I would like to know if I need to buy an additional (if there is a vacancy for it), or I need to get one to replace the old.

    I think increasing the memory to 4 GB, but I was wondering if it will be enough for Photoshop. Thanks a lot for any input.

    Best wishes

    Tim

    Hey Buddy,

    RAM upgrade is not a problem because it is easy and can be done in a few minutes.

    Satellite R630 has Intel HM55 chipset, and the maximum capacity is 8 GB. This means that you can install 4GB module in each memory location. Also an upgrade to 4 GB is not a problem, you can keep your 2 GB module and just buy a new 2 GB module. The module DDR3-10066 part number is PA3676U-1M2G.

    If you have more questions just after, again :)

  • Satellite 3000 - X 4: Question about RAM upgrade

    Hi all

    I'm looking for more information on how to upgrade the RAM for my SATELLITE S3000 - X 4 (120 MB RAM, 14 GB HD I think!). Here's a little history...

    This laptop is about 5 years old, and I'm hoping to speed up a bit. I don't want to buy a new computer because she usually serves my needs.

    I emptied my hard drive files and unwanted programs. And I ran Jv16 Power Tools to clean the registry and minimize starts the process.

    It's always a little slow and if I am considering upgrading the RAM because I think I can do this for about £50. My questions are:

    What type of upgrade RAM should I look to buy? (This laptop have 2 RAM "plug-ins" or just one?)
    What is the size of RAM upgrade is the maximum an S3000 - X 4 could face?
    Could a novice like me to adapt to the style DIY upgrade?

    Thanks for any help you can offer!

    Gabrielle

    Hi Gabrielle

    He is old enough. I looked for some info, but unfortunately I n t have not found much. The device can use the 512 MB of RAM, and you can use 2 sticks of memory. I'm not 100% sure but I think you can use the module with tracking number PA3086U - 1. 25 M.

    The unit is not known to me but please check the underside. On most units, you can find coverage of memory.

  • HP EliteBook 820 G3: HP EliteBook 820 G3 - no USB Boot

    Hello

    I have a HP EliteBook 820 G3 which was working fine a few days ago and now I can't boot from a USB key.

    I put the USB Boot BIOS and any type of USB, I try and no matter what USB Port I try I can not show USB boot F9 option menu.

    The stick, I'm trying to start is a stick of SCCM Boot to BIOS devices (non-uefi).

    I tried a fomatted UEFI, one to make sure that it was not the problem and it made no difference.

    In my cube, I have a ton of HP hardware and all begin this exact stick even without problem.

    But even if the stick did not form correctly it should still show USB as an option in the Menu start with the BIOS configured to boot from it.

    I have reset the BIOS settings, I disabled the USB Boot box then restarted and places back.

    I have flashed the BIOS to the latest version and that made no difference.

    When the machine starts the operating system correctly shows the contents of the flash player.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks in advance!

    False problem.

    A factory more reset BIOS seems to have understood that it works.

    Hello

    If the manual indicates that only 2 GB are possible then you can move the RAM only to 2 GB (2 x 1 GB module)

    I thing the laptop supports the Intel 915 PM chipset and it supports 2 GB of RAM.
