EliteBook 8440p: Ram upgrade problem

I currently have 4 GB of ram, and I recently took a 4 GB stick on another laptop. When I add the new RAM, Windows crashes. The BIOS reads the new RAM (8 in total), but Windows won't load. The new RAM is <4gb 1rx8="" pc3l="" 12800s="" -="" 11="" -="" 12="" -="" b4="">what I've read, the speed max is 10600 on this computer. Is there a way to reduce the RAM? BIOS is locked and not helpful. My questions are: is the speed, the only question? Is there a way to fix this? I would like to solve this legitimately, but if there are other options which may void the warranty, I'd be interested to hear about so, purely for academic purposes.

Thank you!

The speed is not the only problem, it's the tension. Your original brief was 1.5 volts and this new memory is 1.35 volts. It can run at 1.5 volt, but prefer not to and you did not provide a part number for the module, but if it is high density (4 black blocks on each side) it will not play nice with the original HP module. Do yourself a favor and get the memory of one of the good sellers, Crucial, Kingston, etc., that is specified as compatible with your specific model. Intel Core of first generation like yours are very capricious in memory.

  • EliteBook 8440p memory upgrade problem

    I have a 8440p with 2 GB installed, running Windows 7 32 bit (Yes, I know, this config sucks).

    I want to get all of the 4 GB addressable with Win7/32 myself a 4 GB SODIMM thinking that later, if we ever 64-bit installed, I can go up to a massive 6 GB addressable immediately and have the option for 8 GB...

    So when the 4 GB is installed in the Bay of belly, the machine starts fine, but go to the CP, it shows the 6 GB installed (fine) but only 2.92 GB usable (not so well). I was expecting something much closer to 4 GB addressable (for example 3.9 GB). Advanced Tools-Resource Monitor shows approximately the same (2.91 GB).

    Having just updated i7 laptop Alienware my son to 32GB, I know that CP still show a slight deficit in GB usable, but not of 33.33%. I expect the used to be quite a bit closer to 4 GB to that.

    Any ideas what could be causing this? Don't forget, I still have the original 2 GB in there and, Yes, please answer if you know the problem, rather that suggest I have delete the original SODIMM and try it (which will take a week until we can get a breakfix guy to do it, otherwise it will void the warranty, apparently).

    Thank you in advance for your help!

  • EliteBook 2540p: Elitebook 2540p - RAM upgrade

    Hi all

    I want to upgrade the RAM in my Elitebook 2540p to 8 GB or (if possible) to 16 GB.

    It comes to the information contained in the HP (http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c02206692) website:

    You are limited by the memory of the CPU bus.

  • RAM upgrade problem: Flash the BIOS? or upgrade the processor?

    Hi, I jumped in with both feet and now need help to get out me!

    I have a desktop PC HP Pavilion Elite HPE-470uk who becomes a bit slow (processor card here http://ark.intel.com/products/48505/Intel-Core-i3-550-Processor-4M-Cache-3_20-GHz). After you have added a bluray player that I noticed that it's getting a bit slow so thought I would add little RAM.

    I bought a few Hyper X8GB of HyperXbeast 1600hhz, slipped in and the PC did nothing but to turn on and off several times. I checked the two sticks and they both do it. I then (plow in front) checked what memory, the processor can handle and discovered "The Intel® Core™ i3 - 5xx / Intel® Core™ i3-21xx processors handle memory DDR3 1066/1333 MHz" by http://www.intel.com/support/processors/corei3/sb/CS-031175.htm

    After a discussion on another forum, that it has been suggested that I have updated the BIOS because it can allow the processor to manage memory 1600 mhz, but I don't know where to start on this or what version to selected download. I'd appreciate any help you can offer on this.

    The other way, that I can see is to update the processor itself. I thought of nothing too fancy just an i5 because it will allow me to run 3d blurays and should allow me to run some apps at the same time. After reading this http://m.wikihow.com/Upgrade-a-Processor it seems too complicated. Is it really just a matter of taking off the fan, declipsant the old processor, nine droping in and then put on some cooling stick stuff?

    Or should I just return the memory and get good memory?

    See you soon

    Atdot.

    Here are the specifications of original factory for your desktop HP Pavilion Elite HPE-470uk and its card mother MS-7613 (Iona-GL8E). Based on these specifications, this model can support up to 16 GB (4 GB x 4 DIMMs) as follows:

    Dual channel memory architecture
    Four DDR3 DIMM sockets (240 pin)
    PC3-10600 (DDR3-1333)
    PC3-8500 (DDR3-1066)
    Memory non - ECC, unbuffered
    Supports up to 16 GB on 64 bit computers

    In addition, this model can support the following Intel processors;

    Maximum frequency of the processor of the heart < = 2.93GHz
    Intel Core i7 - 8xx (Lynnfield core)
    Intel Core i5 - 7xx (Lynnfield core)
    Intel Core i5 - 6xx (Clarkdale core)
    Intel Core i3 - 5xx (Clarkdale core)

    If you do not have to worry about the update of the BIOS, there is no updates available for your computer BIOS. Honestly, I return the incorrect memory and upgrade to a minimum of 8 GB of RAM. Then, if it solves all your problems, you could also upgrade the processor.

    As the computer is nearly 4 years old, you can consider a factory HP restore to return the computer to a facoty as State. In many cases, it returns original full speed of the computer. The reason why this helps, because the BONE is swollen and clogged over time.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • Satellite C660 PSC1JE - 8 GB RAM upgrade problems

    Fellow owners of Toshiba,

    I have a Satellite C660-PSC1JE-00Y00XHU with 3 GB RAM (1 + 2) I want to go to 8 GB.

    I went out and bought 2 x 4 GB, but so far no of the below those worked (the computer restarts or stop):
    http://www.Amazon.com/Kingston-Technology-1333MHz-KTT-S3BS-4G/DP/B00B2UWSD4
    http://www.Kingston.com/dataSheets/KVR16S11S8_4.PDF
    I was not to mix memories above, purchased two of each. Certainly, these operate at higher MHz and they aren't memories KIT, so that may be the issue.

    According to the specifications of the laptop (SEE attachment), I should be able to move to 8 GB.
    I found the following thread here, but it is not help me solve this problem: https://forum.toshiba.eu/showthread...RAM+memory+8gb

    I found my memories at Intel:
    http://www.Intel.com/content/www/us/en/platform-memory/DDR3-1333-n-ECC-SODIMM-validation-results.html?wapkw=m471b2873fhs
    Two of my memories have a value of 'B' in the R/C column, but what that means? I ask, it is because in the list, there are two 4 GB memory listed thus:
    M471B5273CH0-CH9
    M471B5273BH1-CH9
    But these memories have a 'F' in R/C column. Is that mean that they didn't work with the tested chipset?

    I found a KIT on amazon, where PSC1JE is registered: http://amzn.com/B00WAFGDTK
    But on the important information of the product section, only C655 notebooks are listed.

    Another thing I noticed, is that support for DDR3 frequency on my motherboard is only 533 MHz, but the memories that came with the laptop are 666,7 MHz. Does that mean I shouldn't buy same PC3-10600 memory, since it would not even capable of running at full speed?

    What I absolutely have to buy KIT or can I go out with two sticks of Samsung 4 GB?

    I am at a loss. Can someone point me in the direction of someone who can check what memory modules I need in order to have 8 GB in my notebook?

    Thank you

    Hello. I hope someone can help me with this one because it's driving crazy me!

    I recently bought a Satellite A500 17 X from a friend at work. As it has the standard 4 GB, I pulled out and 2x4gb bought to upgrade. The problem here is that the laptop is simply not start with any other RAM sticks in place. I spent over £50 and took the first set back as I thought he had a problem with them.

    DDR3 8500
    1066 MHz

    If someone can help me here, I would be very grateful!

    Thank you.

    When you want to upgrade RM, it is important to use 100% compatible and also produces high quality.
    I ve checked specification and your laptop can be upgraded up to 8 GB of RAM. Compatible RAM of 4 GB modules have the PA3677U-1M4G part number.

    Order these Rams announced everything will be OK.

    By the way: best Rams offer Kingston so you can also check which modules you can buy for your laptop. Check it here.

  • Lenovo G40 ~ 70 ram upgrade problem

    I bought a lenovo G40 ~ 70 cell and I wanted to update my ram. It contains 4 GB of ram and I wanted it go to 8 GB. What kind of ram card should I buy and after upgrading my computer will have problems? Thank you.

    Hi Ayato,

    Welcome to the Forums

    According to the request, we understand you need to upgrade RAM to your laptop Lenovo G40-70.

    According to the specifications of this model, the memory maximum supported by this model is up to 16 GB DDR3L 1600 Mhz. That's why I suggest you consider DDR3L RAM the RAM slots in the laptop doesn't support the same. And 'L' in the DDR3L refers to low voltage.

    I hope this helps. Do not post back if the problem persists.

  • HP Elitebook 8540w RAM Upgrade

    Hello

    I am currently in the process of upgrading the RAM in my Elitebook 8540w. I have the i7 Intel M620 (dual-core) and bought the computer in August 2010. I also have Windows 7 Professional 64 bit and 2x2gb (total 4 GB) of RAM.

    I watched this document in order to see what the options were: http://www8.hp.com/h20195/v2/GetDocument.aspx?docname=c04150938&ver=25

    Now, I see 2 contradictory statements in this document. On page 7, it is said that 8 GB modules are only compatible with quad-core processors (represented by two asterisks) and that it would be possible to have 8 GB (2x4gb) total in my case. Then, on page 18, the table indicates that a configuration of 2x8GB (16GB total) would be possible since there are no asterisks in addition to this configuration.

    So who is the maximum I can put in: 2x4gb or 2x8GB?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    The document is for many products for the complete series. Looks like your machine is a machine double heart so it only it supports only 8 GB for 2 slots (the first * indicates 8Gb each slot, and a quad core, you can get up to 4 x 8 = 32 GB).

    Kind regards.

  • HP G62 100SL: HP G62 100SL ram Upgrade problem

    Hello

    I wanted to upgrade the ram on my G62, since the out-of-the-box 2x2gb:

    ( http://www.kingston.com/it/memory/search/discontinuedmodels/Default.aspx?DeviceType=3&Mfr=HEW&Line=G... the serial number of my modules is 598856-001 and 002-598856, so that they are 2 gigabits - DDR3 1333 MHz)

    to them:

    http://www.Kingston.com/it/memory/search/?partid=kvr13s9s8/4

    Their specifications, they seem to be compatible, but when Windows tries to load, it just crashes and restarts and gives me this type of error: Kernel security check failure, then restarts, and so on in a loop.

    I checked the new memories on a different laptop and they work very well, I swapped the slots but nothing has changed. So, the problem probably lies in windows or directly on the configuration of the bios (but I can't change anything in there, I f.37 InsydeH2O, 3.5 version).

    You know a way to solve this situation or can tell you me a type of memory which will work for sure for the upgrade?

    Thanks in advance!

    Not exactly. Some versions of the G62 will accept 6 GB of RAM (4 GB and 2 GB), but this point is largely moot as I understand you are trying to install 2 x 4 GB total 8. In general, you do not want to mix the modules in sizes because you lose operation "dual channel" which is a bit faster than single-channel you can get from a module or modules of mixed size.

    The speed of the memory of your laptop is DDR3-1066. Your 1333 mhz modules are downclocking to 1 066 mhz and a memory downclocks better than others.

    You should carefully read the manual, but if you arrive at the actual parts for the memory modules list it shows a 4 GB module is only compatible with version 1.1 of the G62. 8 gigs will accept so not all models. Other than 1.1 versions are limited to 4 GB of memory.

    You have the processor i3 - 330 M with a dedicated ATI 5430 M video chip with 512 vram. Those who take the 8 gigs (version 1.1) have the 5470 graphics. See pages 19 and 20. You have version 1.0. He maxxes to 4 gigs is therefore peeling when you try to install 8.

    It is a lot of information, but the basic message is that you already have so much memory that can be installed on your laptop.

  • Inspiron 1525, Ram upgrade problems

    I am trying to upgrade my Inspiron up to 8 GB of RAM, but when I try to run it with 8 GB, BIOS refuses to finish loading. Replacing a stick of 4 GB with the old 2 GB stick, running to 6 GB of total RAM, it works fine, but not with the two sticks of 4 GB with a total of 8 GB. I am running the latest (I think). A17 BIOS revision for my laptop. Anyone know how can I get the whole 8 GB work?

    You can check the following:

    Is your i1525 a

    1. a 64-bit processor

    2. an operating system to 64-bit (OS)

    3. all 64-bit drivers?

    If Yes, then it is strange, it

    Run the BIOS and the operating system with 6 GB but not

    with 8GB.

    It cannot be the operating system if you do not

    a 64-bit for Win Vista Home Premium 64-bit instance.

    You have a Dual Boot (2 BONES) or not?

    If this is not the case, the problem must be in hardware.

    I want to test 8 GB of RAM on my i1525, but before you buy

    2 x 4 GB of RAM I want to know if the i1525 can handle this amount.

    A17 is the latest version. What the BIOS is displayed

    When you run with 6 GB under the tab "memory"?

    What kind of error (code) only the BIOS

    display with 8 GB? I understand it stops and freezes? If this is not

    give all an error code? Have you tried

    all combinations: module 1 4 GB in support 1, module 2 4 GB in Jack 2.

    Module 2 in 1 support and module 1 Socket 2 and so on

    with 1 2 GB module in the module socket 1 and 1 from 4 GB to take 2.

    Windows Vista (64-bit)

    • Ultimate: 128 GB
    • Company: 128 GB
    • Company: 128 GB
    • Home Premium: 16 GB
    • Home Basic: 8 GB
    It is absolutely a limitation of i1525. On the other hand: almost all sources
    said on a maximum of 4 GB if your i1525 successfully managed 6 GB!
    It's 2 GB above the max Dell says it can handle.
    You can check with Piriform Speccy, Belarc Advisor and PC Wizard 2012 how
    your 2 GB and 4 GB modules are managed by your i1525.
    Success!

    Hello

    > Am I something wrong or missing something?
    Of course, you use the memory bad or is not compatible!

    Initialization not after an upgrade of memory is a common behavior if the modules are not compatible or do not work.

    You can upgrade the memory to 1024 MB (2x512MB) max and page Toshiba should run these modules:

    Thank you

    One question;
    This question seemed before that you have installed the second module of RAM?

    If this isn't the case, then this problem is certainly related to the second module of RAM.
    What you could do is to spend both modules of memory in a different memory location.
    Sometimes it helps.

    If the BSOD will always appear then you should replace the memory module and need to test another.

    Best regards & good luck
