HP G42-230us Memory Upgrade

In my computer laptop now I have 4 GB of DDR3 PC3 - 8500, I want to upgrade to 8 GB of DDR3 PC3-8500 DDR3 PC3-10600. Crucial has a 8 GB kit to 93.99. I was wondering if anyone knows of any other sites or stores where I can get a 8 GB kit for less?

Hi, I use these sticks of Corsair memory on my Dv6-2060ea: http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-DDR3-Laptop-Memory-CMSO8GX3M2A1333C9/dp/B002YUF8ZG/ref=sr_1_1?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1304119265&sr=1-1

1333 Mhz is PC3-10600...

Why do you want to upgrade RAM? Is it because you want to play games and need more shared graphics memory, or just a general performance? I made some points of reference before and after I upgraded from 4 GB to 8 GB and there is no difference in the performance of RAM. I mean that 8 GB is good, but 4 GB is enough for most computer work. I would suggest to keep 4 GB but to replace the HDD with a SSD drive if I want to speed up a computer...

  • HP G42-230us optical drive update

    I recently bought a HP G42-230us. I was wondering if I can upgrade the optical drive with a blu - ray player stock? I searched a bit on the internet but had no luck.

    Portable SATA optical drives are all the same size, it is because the media are.

    It works over there, Windows will automatically install the drivers for you. It was reported that Sony's Blu - ray discs have incompatible driver problems, so avoid the Sony. Samsung and Panasonic are good choices, Toshiba would probably be good too.

    I can add more technical info on request.

    Recently saved this PC of my friend tries to throw it. Everything is fine with the PC. It works perfectly and there is no material visible failure wihtin the PC either. He just bought a new and had no need for this one.

    Before turn me this into a House mutli-purpose server, I decided to upgrade the RAM.

    So I did some research and found this page: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01883661

    DDR3 240-pin DIMM 1333 MHz non - ECC, Max 4 GB per DIMM slot, Total Max 16 GB module.

    I went and bought RAM Corsair. Link to the product: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/cmv4gx3m1a1333c9

    I decided to get 2x4gb and upgrade later if I felt the need.

    I was happy to install in the PC. one in DIMM 1 slot and the other in the DIMM 2 slot.

    BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!

    I thought that maybe the slots are wrong, maybe they have to odd numbers then numbers.

    So I changed the RAM of DIMM 2 DIMM 3.

    Once again, the annoying ringtone.

    I even tried leaving just the 4 GB DIMM 1 and tried to start the PC, but nothing helped.

    I tried a lot of different combinations with the end result is 5 annoying beeps.

    After that I thought that maybe, just maybe, an update of the BIOS can change things.

    So I installed Windows 7 (I can't stand Windows. Arch Linux FTW) and performing a BIOS update.

    I then installed the new RAM again. Yes... frickin 5 beeps AGAIN.

    I am extremely disappointed at this point. I spent already $ 70 on a computer with free access.

    I read the forums here, but I couldn't find a thread with a solution for me.

    Is there anyone on this forum who could lend me a helping hand?

    Any information would be gladly appreciated.

    PS Please report any stupid error, I did. Stick and stones could not curb my bones.

  • Max Memory Upgrade for Pavilion a810y

    How can I find the AMT of max memory I can put in my Pavilion a810y?  It of sites that say 4 GB and other telling that to 2 GB.  Is the real answer please stand up.

    Hello:

    Your PC would have the Intel 915 chipset.

    If the motherboard has no memory, each with 1 GB of memory, 2 slots then you're at the max.

    Locations of Intel 915 chipset memory cannot manage more than 1 GB of memory.

    The crucial memory upgrade link I posted said your PC had 4 locations of memory, so that the info is wrong.

    If you upgrade to W7, I recommend you only go with the 32-bit version on your PC.

    A 64-bit system requires more disk space and memory to run as a 32-bit system doesn't work - not double, but, with only 2 GB of memory, a 32 bit OS will perform a little better that will be a 64 bit OS, but who is to you.

  • HP CQ61-313US posible memory upgrade configurations?

    I have this laptop: HP CQ61-313US (with Windows7 64 bit) (card mother AMD = SKU: 577064-001)

    Origin this model laptop has 3 GB (1 GB x 1 + 2 x 1 GB) memory DDR2 800 MHz PC2 6400 S.

    Now, I would like to upgrade memory a little bit, and according to the specifications (manual booklet to print and pdf) it is (recommended?, recommended?, applicable only?)  configurations of memory upgrade - here's the Manual:

    2 SODIMM slots

    Customer-accessible/extendable

    PC2-6400, 800 MHz, DDR2

    Supports dual-channel memory

    Supports up to 8 GB of RAM, in the following configurations:

    8192 MB (4096 × 2)

    4096 MB (2048 × 2)

    3072 MB (2 048 × 1 + 1024 × 1)

    2048 MB (2 048 × 1).

    2048 MB (1024 × 2)

    1024 MB (1024 × 1).

    As you can see only 6 GB isn't on the list, which is incomprehensible to me, particularly because you can combine 1 GB x 1 + 2 GB x 1 to get 3 GB, but not 2 x 1 + 4 x 1 for 6 GB GB GB as I would like.

    So basically my question should be: is it possible to install 6 GB memory 2 GB x 1 + 4 GB x 1 on this motherboard despite the fact that it is not mentioned in the manual configuration?

    If YES, then what configuration would be better: 6 GB (2 GB x 1 + 4 x 1 GB) or 4 GB (2 GB x 2)?

    You are the very welcome.

    I agree entirely with you suggestion.

    You have a laptop HP Pavilion 2002au g6. Unfortunately you happened to choose a laptop that is not so simple to upgrade.

    You will need to contact an online memory provider and ask them for help to find a guaranteed compatible 8 GB upgrade or buy the upgrade from HP.

    Search for suppliers of memory online using Google or Bing and ""memory upgrade HP Pavilion g6-2002au ' as keywords. " I strongly recommend that you don't settle for anything memory compatible modules less guaranteed by well known memory manufacturers.

  • Veriton M498G memory upgrade problem

    I'm trying to age 5 years Veriton M498G memory upgrade my son of 4 GB to 12 GB now when I upgaded to Windows 7 64 bit.

    The original 2 GB key still works fine and the 2 GB key that I added back a bit works very well too (4 GB total).

    But when I remove all the sticks and put in a new 4 GB stick the computer crashes in the POST just after the BIO 1024Mo of RAM (!). Looks like that the BIOS does not like the 4 GB stick! Compensation of the BIOS did not help.

    Back original memory makes the computer works perfectly.

    I am well aware of the memory manufacturer/type compatibility issues.

    I tried 4 different memory of 4 GB sticks from 2 different sources with no luck.

    My questions are:

    1. the Veriton M498G motherboard or BIOS has any limitation on the size of the memory card?

    2 I missed a setup or configuration to let the BIOS see the 4 GB memery stick?

    3. a more recent BIOS help? (the computer uses the original BIOS from 2011)

    4. is there a solution runs the endless trial and error of purchase and return of USB keys?
