Hello all, new Member here.

Hello everyone I have an IBM Thinkpad T20 with the p3 700 mhz 512 MB ram and running either Windows 2000 or win xp pro according to which hard drive I have in it. I'll have an a31 as soon who will be running xp pro. My question is what is the max ram for the t20, & also what is the max processor I can shove in there safely, and the real max ram I can shove in there also. With respect to the a31, in that what is the best memory I can put here, like brand and others that I intend to cram all of the 2 GB in just wondering what game would be best for the energy savings of speed and reliability. Also, what is the best processor to put in the a31. These machines take only the northwood core or can a process die smaller such as 90 nm and 65 nm from work in the a31? Any tips or tricks with these machines? I'd like do like almost out of the box I can, just with the upgrade of material lol. Thank you! Droido

Welcome to the forum!

Maximum RAM for T20 is 512 MB PC 100 or low density PC133. The CPU tops out at 750 Mhz, unless you mod the BIOS that would allow 1 GHz Coppermine.

A31/p works with a core of Northwood processor, maxing out at 2.6 Ghz. above 2.4 they tend to become * very * hot. Optimal heat/performance ratio is something of the order of 2.0/2.2/2.4.

These machines are quite tolerant an aura almost any laptop PC2100 or PC2700 RAM, assuming that you have the latest BIOS/EC installed.

Tips and tricks? Never turn off or let it go to sleep. Is not a joke.

Good luck.

  • Hi new Member here. you just bought a V5 74UP 591G

    never used linux before, advice before I start. Nothing in the installation booklet.

    Hello

    It is a specific model, if you want to find on the Web for example acer page, you write just V5 - 591G.

    Depending on what you plan to do, you can install ubuntu for example.

    Here's how to create the USB drive and install it.

    Just I warn you, if you have never used linux before but you used windows. Most of the applications that are on windows does not work on ubuntu, so be sure that your applications are also made for linux. They are very different operating systems. If your applications do not work on linux, it would be better to invest in a windows operating system.

  • Hi all: new members here

    I never thought that I would need to use this forum because Acer products are reliable. My experience level is slightly lower intermediate, although I've been using computers since the time Atari ST.

    I have the Acer Aspire 5517, I bought in late 2009. It was working fine. I love it and want to continue using it. It was originally purchased for everyday use. I use my Acer for music production. I entered the hobby about a year after I bought my laptop. I have another more while desktop is not suitable for music production.

    By 2010, I got a virus but managed to get that ironed out. Then about 2 years ago I had another virus. A colleague was able to recover my system. Then about a year and a half ago, maybe longer that after an accident, my os is not genuine. Initaly my Acer with Windows 7 Home Premium. My colleague has said in the last accident that it has installed Windows 7 Ultimate. Then when I couldn't enter my computer laptop desk I had to system restore uese. I still want to use this laptop until I can afford a laptop faster with the best processor speeds.

    Finally, I would like to know is there a way to restore my laptop to its original (even if I could lose all my programs, which is ok) to factory settings and the os. I have the original product key but no installation disc.

    Thank you :-)

  • Hello, new Member! Q:lower power processor for IBM G41?

    Hello all, new Member here!

    A good friend gifted me an IBM Thinkpad G41(#2881) in excellent condition, and it uses a processor MHz Celeron D 2.53.

    I think it uses a processor of type "office" and wants to replace it with a smaller power, keeping the same speed, FSB, etc..

    This may be to ask the 'impossible' (I think that the CROWD support than he came with) but it can't hurt to ask, and this forum seems to be the best place to ask.

    I think there are two versions of the G41, Celeron D has a smaller MOB that hides the Pentium 4 (?), please correct me if I'm wrong.

    All suggestions are welcome, but I really need to know if someone did, (I don't have to blow a working machine!)

    Any "electronic" issues relating to these forums, I will gladly try to answer!

    Thank you for your time and consideration!

    Welcome to the forum!

    All G4x series units use full desktop processors and will not accept the classic laptop processors. Power efficiency is not something they are known for...

    You will need to swap the Board to allow the use of the high-end Pentium 4 HT processors that were available on some units G41.

    Is this useful? Not in my book - and I love G series ThinkPad. In all fairness, Celeron D does nothing to sneeze, and these machines can very usable today with some upgrade in the areas of the RAM and hard drive...

    Good luck.

  • New Member has exactly * a * problem for a long time with system! ***

    first of all, I want to say hello to everyone... I just registered today... actually I just discovered today these forums exist even ;^>

    Features: 6 months ago I bought a HP Pavilion a6600f... I love it and have bought things for her from the beginning... find it me easy to use and * beep * hard to turn off ;^> I always check to make sure that I have the latest drivers for everything, cleaning the registry, etc..

    I had exactly * one * problem for the last few months and it's bugging me enough now to do something.

    System details: the bureau a6600f Pavilion has a Pentium dual core E2200 clocked at 2.2 GHz... I put 4 GB of memory in it, and it runs Vista Home Premium w/Service Pack 1 (64-bit).  the rest is probably not important to this question.

    QUESTION: when I opened the health security & in the hp Advisor, I always have yellow exclamation in a triangle "PC Update," and also a exclamation point red in a square under "PC Health".  both are caused by the same problem... the fact that I continue to say there is a new version of the "HP health check' and I need to download/install.

    problem is that I can't do.  Here is what I get.

    at first, everything seems fine.  He considers it, download it (it's about 13 MB), and I get the message 'the active support HP library configure your new installation of the software.  * That's * where the problems begin.  I get:

    «HP Active Support Library error: Error 1316.» "A network error occurred while trying to read him comes from the file C:\windows\installer\HP Library.msi of active support" (note: I checked and I don't even have this file present in C:\windows\installer... that's the problem?)

    then I get "roll back the installation.

    and finally, "error:-1603 Fatal error during installation."  Consult the help of Windows Installer (msi.chm) or MSDN for more information"

    so I can't update the HP health check and I still have these two errors (the yellow triangle and red square) present in HP CAW - PC Health & Security.

    I searched these forums and found a few issues related to the CAW of HP, and I understand that some people even turn off... but it never gave me a problem outside of it, and I want to keep around if I can.

    I'm sorry if this post is on the long side, but I wanted to provide as much information as I could.

    so, my name is Michael King and I hope to be a regular contributor here, and I don' t mind if someone wants to email me, although I understand problems of this kind are better publicly displayed where they benefit from the community as a whole.

    Thank you

    -MK

    first of all, I would like to thank the three of you who tried to help me with this problem.  This means that you, dmhoo29, anon, MrFixIt.  and as a gesture of goodwill, I would like to give Kudos to you, being a new Member and all three.

    you all had great suggestions, and based on these suggestions, I tried a few variations based on these suggestions.  Unfortunately, nothing has worked... She is always back to the same error messages, no matter what I did.

    In fact... HP * own * suggestion... which is essentially reproduced in this thread... does not work either.

    I had already spent hours on this ridiculous thing, and tonight I spent 3 hours on the subject.  I finally solved it, and the solution may benefit others who I see can easily run through a similar problem with other improvements... BECAUSE THE PROBLEM IS A RIDICULOUS OVERSIGHT ON THE PART OF HP that we can correct easily manually.

    THE SOLUTION

    What annoyed me early on, was the fact that I kept getting the message about the "HP Active Support Library.msi" file, which was looking for the installer in C:\Windows\Installer.  It seemed to me that the real problem was that he was looking for a file that simply wasn't there.

    Well, during my hours 3 screwing around with tonight, guess what I found?

    There's a right called "swsetup" subdirectory under the root of the C:\ drive.  and inside C:\swsetup, I found the following two subdirectories:

    C:\swsetup\sp36082 - and -.

    C:\swsetup\sp41377

    I knew of the many, many times I tried update HP Health Check that he was downloading sp41377. (don't remember the extension) via FTP from HP.  so I checked what was in C:\swsetup\sp41377 and guess what I found?  Well, a few things, but the only thing that concerns us is (drum roll please) THE FILE "HP ACTIVE SUPPORT LIBRARY. MSI!

    simply, I opened another window, surfed to C:\Windows\Installer and drag-and - drop "HP Active Support Library.msi" here (I pressed the 'Ctrl' key in order to make a copy of it rather than a civil rights movement).

    so now I had this annoying file in the right directory.  so, since my C:\swsetup\sp41377 window was still open, and since there is a file 'setup.exe' in there, I ran it.

    and the Holy Mother of God, it has actually worked.

    which means that what had happened was, when I tried to update the health check, that would create a subdirectory in C:\swsetup... in this case the C:\swsetup\sp41377 subdirectory... all he needed for the update here... and then ran "setup.exe" dump...

    . . except that the HP person who wrote 'setup.exe' forgot to include an itty-bitty statement in the code...

    to copy 'HP Active Support Library.msi' in the C:\Windows\Installer directory first.

    then pay attention to that sort of thing, my friends... If you try to update this HP wrote and that you get a 'cannot find file such and such in such and such directory' type of error msg, see if you can locate on your hard drive... maybe in C:\swsetup, perhaps elsewhere, I know... and if you find, just manually copy it in the required directory and run Setup again.  This might be the only time where HP committed this Sin right; ^ >... or even once, it cannot!

    Bravo and thank you again to all who have contributed.

  • Add new Member and firmware update

    Hello

    I have a group of 4 bays Equallogic

    1xPS4000 (Type: 70-0120) and

    3xPS6100 (Type: 70-0400)

    They all firmware v6.0.4

    The new table is a PS6210XV. I'm sure that the firmware of it's newer probably with a release v7.x.

    The documentation for the firmware update, it says that I have to upgrade all the tables on my group first, and then add the new group.

    I was hoping to add the new table and move some of the volumes to that one, update a table that I emptied, add back to the pool, empty one another etc etc.

    Is this possible?

    It is really not a good idea to do so.   In place upgrade is by far the best option.  If you have defined your timeout of 60 seconds and choose a period of quierter I/O, that there should be no problem.  Also, be ready for an upgrade means that be ablel to handle a failure of the controller in the case of a real problem of HW.

    First, if.  You need TO upgrade the new Member and all members of 6.0.x to 7.0.9.   The new table will come with 7.0.x since it is the minimum version for this controller.  Upgrade to 7.0.9 as well.  Create a new pool for this member and do not set the RAID policy yet.  Do not enable the iSCSI 2nd course interface.

    What disks you have in the existing tables?

    You run VMware ESXi?

  • Move the user off the system disk folders? Envy of all the data on E, so need to move directories user E. not individually, but in the world. If all new users, I create will have their user and docs folder on E.

    Got a new laptop with win 7 home premium pre-installed. Using the language of win 7... I have decreased the volume of HDD to 55 GB.  Made new simple volumes. I want all the data personal on E, so need to move user directories to E. No individually change the location tab on dozens of files, but in the world. If all new users, I create will have their user and docs folder on E from the gitgo.

    Under XP, I could just change the 'My Documents' link on each desktop, go to the e. * instead of c *. *, but with win7?

    As a Windows Home Server and most wise OS facilities, the system drive is isolated and a drive of 2 or 3 for everything else.  Get a problem? Just restore the system drive.

    You need the answer?

    Thank you

    Hello TomZork,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    In another forum, I found the instructions to move folders of users to another drive.
    You can follow the post here. This is attributed to Jimmie R. Houts.

    Article:
    You can move the entire folder C:\Users to another drive quite easily once windows is installed:

    1. Boot from the installation media and access the command prompt (I think you need to click on fix everything first)
    2. Use Robocopy to copy C:\Users to D:\Users: robocopy c:\Users d:\Users /mir /xj
      a. /mir says robocopy to mirror directories, this will copy all files and permissions
      b. /xj is very important, it means robocopy does not follow the points of junction. If you forget this, you will have a lot of trouble.
    3. Make sure that the files copied successfully
    4. Delete c:\Users
    5. Create the junction pointing d:\Users: mklink /d c:\Users d:\Users

    That's all. I used this process for Vista RTM with no problems.

    Here's an article that explains as well. Just use robocopy instead of xcopy as it does in the article in order to avoid possible ntfs permissions problems.

    Update: because I discovered the hard way, I thought I would mention also that if you plan on switching "Program Data", or "Program Files" with this method, you will be disappointed to know that everything works as expected, but the windows updates will install is no longer. I don't know if this problem has been fixed in Win 7.

    With the foregoing, it is not a Microsoft forum or Web site so you will have to use at your own risk. I also recommend to do a system restore point before making any changes in directories that you can then go back to a previous state.

    Please reply back and let us know if these suggestions help you to solve your problem, then to benefit others.

    Sincerely,

  • Not able to see the new Member shared alternative hierarchy on Smart view

    Hello

    I had to make changes on the replacement as a hierarchy below:

    1 created shared member on the new roll upward with Member Shared Property (replacing Hierarchy).

    2 removed the former member under the other roll upward.

    3 refreshed the Hyperion, planning of database.

    4 could see the new Member roll up on the alternative hierarchy after refresh.

    Now, when I try to extract data from the new hierarchy of alternative, I'm not able to get the data that I get the error message like "Invalid Grid - size XXXX member is located at the wrong location".

    I choose the option 'selection of members' members, but the grid is not valid when I try to extract data on smartview.

    Have I missed any step to make changes on the planning? I checked from myside to display the shared member on Essbase after updating of the planning application.

    Can you please help me in fixing the issue?
