HP Pavilion 763n automatically restart after installing additional memory

I just installed more memory for my Compaq HP Pavilion 763n.  My operating system is Windows XP and the memory card, I bought 1 GB DDR - 266 (PC2100) Non - ECC Unbuffered 184-pin 2.5V CL = 2.5 64 X 8 memory.  When I installed the new memory, I restarted my PC - and everything worked fine, but the PC automatically restarts every 5 to 10 minutes.

I installed the new memory card of 1 GB two ways - in the second location of memory (virgins) next to the original card of 512 MB, then I turned off the PC and installed the new card of 1 GB instead of the original card of 512 MB (I removed the card to origin), thinking that maybe the problem.

It still restarts automatically every 5 to 10 minutes.  I now use the PC with the original sound of the memory only card, so the problem is certainly related to the installation of the memory card.

Anyone has an idea why my PC is doing this and what to do?

Thank you very much for all your comments!

The Hynix used d ' award by OEMs and seems to be a good memory.  I'm not fallen on the Elpida brand.

  • slot Memory 4 quit working after installing additional memory sticks

    I have a HP pavilion running XP media center a1440n 2005 with 1 GB of memory installed in the factory PC2-4300 (266 mhz) into the slot 1 & 3 (blue slots) total of 2 GB. I bought (2) sticks of memory PNY PC2-6400 and added 2 & 4 slots (black sites). Computer started and ran fine, checked CPU - Z and all memory displayed. I thought I could replace original with additional faster memory PC2-6400, since I realize that the unit will work on slower speed stick. To view before, I bought more memory, I got out of memory original slots 1 & 3 and replaced by the new memory. Computer would not boot. Has released the new memory and replaced with the original and the computer started. When I tried to install the new memory in slots 2 & 4, computer wouldn't boot. After changing the sticks and 2 & 4 memory slots checked OK but computer wouldn't boot with anything in the 4 Groove. For now, I use 3 & 1 GB in slots 1, 2, and the computer seems to work very well with all 3 assignment. I guess the slot 4 is shot, but why would the computer starts not with the new memory in ALS 1 & 3?

    Hello

    Try to clear the CMOS memory.  You can also try to remove the CMOS battery.

    Use a flashlight and visually inspect the slots for bent pins.

    I've seen this problem before and clear the CMOS usually solves the problem, but not always.

    Your best bet is to use a tool for major manufacturers such as Kingston, crucial or Corsair dimm to make sure that your have the correct DIMM and then followed by a call to the sales to make sure that you have chosen the correct DIMMS. I use sets matched across all DIMM slots to avoid compatibility problems.

    BTW, HP specifications only list PC2 - 6400 DIMM approved.  This can cause weird problems.

  • Continuous restart after installing updates on windows xp

    Hi, I have an Acer Netbook only a year and I installed the automatic Windows updates because my windows is original, so I thought that it would be no problem. The thing is that a few days before he installed the latest update and after the reboot to finish the installation she never windows again. He continues to send me a black screen where I can choose between:

    safe mode

    safe mode with networking

    safe mode with command prompt

    Start windows normally

    and it doesn't matter which I choose, it sends me a blue screen which last less than a second and it restarts again.

    I tried pressing F8 and more option appears, but each of them ends up with the same blue screen.

    My laptop is a netbook so I don - t have a CD drive on it for wondows stable once again, so please help me!


    Thank you very much!

    Hi marraqueta,.

    To disable the automatic restart in case of system error, follow these steps:

    1. reboot your computer and start pressing F8 on your keyboard. On a computer that is configured to start to multiple operating systems, you can press the F8 key when the Boot Menu appears.

    2. Select disables automatic system failure reboot when the Windows Advanced Options menu appears, and press ENTER.

    Subsequently, when a problem causes a blue screen of death or another major error that stops the system, the PC will automatically restart. It will be necessary to restart manually.

    Method 1:

    Step 1:

    I suggest you check in safe mode.

    Start your computer in safe mode

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

    Step 2:

    If you be able to start your computer in safe mode, I'd say make clean boot and check.

    Place the computer in a clean boot state, then check if it helps. You can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  • New Satellite A200 is restarted after installing XP

    Hi all

    I hope someone can help with this problem.
    I have a new Satellite A200 and made in the wake of the SP2 and matrix storage drivers.
    I completely deleted all partitions on the disk and installed XP (slipstreamed version).
    All going well until the first reboot and then it restarts just over and over again.
    If I have safe mode of choice it loads correctly and I can't install drivers etc.
    I wonder if it is a BIOS issue?
    I tried to update using windows bios update for XP and it will not allow in safe mode.
    The reboot happens before even starting XP screen appears, hard drive blinks twice, then it power cycles.
    I hope that I'm not the first to encounter this problem.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    Mhhh very strange to me, it looks like a software problem!
    In Windows XP, the default setting is for the computer to automatically reboot when a fatal error occurs. If this fatal error only occurs when you stop, the system reboots automatically.

    Have you noticed the same course the Vista OS?

    What you could do is to install the Vista from the recovery CD again, and then update the BIOS to the XP version.
    After this procedure install the XP with all the service packs and the compatible Intel matrix Storage Manager

    Good luck

  • Disable automatic restart after Windows Update for the home edition of Windows 8 forced

    I use Windows 8 home edition.  I want to keep automatic updates turned on, but I don't want my computer restarts automatically after some Windows updates are installed.

    I am aware that there is a notification on the lock screen, indicating that a reboot is needed, but normally, I keep my computer on all the time and don't ever see this notification.  There are no notifications on the desktop until 15 minutes before the forced restart.  Still, he seems to be at an inopportune time and translates into loss of work.

    I saw messages and articles describing the methods of disabling restarting forced on different versions of Windows by changing the registry keys or by using the Group Policy Editor.  But Windows 8 Home edition does not have the registry key mentioned nor has he a Group Policy Editor.

    Is there a way to display the notification on the desktop even more in advance?

    Is it possible to postpone indefinitely or completely disable the forced reboot?

    I get an error message "Windows cannot find gpedit.msc", probably because I have the Home version and not Pro (even though I really don't like about the reason, I get the error, to be honest).  Which unfortunately for Member States does nothing to increase the probability that I'm going to buy the Pro version (of Win8 or any later version) and instead reduced the probability that I will never buy another product of MS at all.  If anything this behavior makes more sense to a professional (i.e. IT Department coordinated group policy settings) rather than a home setting, so for me to have no way to remove/fix this "feature" really turns me off purchase Windows for domestic use.

    Oh if you have a House version, you will get the editors of group policy.  Actually, politics made the most sense for users.  Send the editorial at MS, not me.

  • Satellite Pro L40 PSL4BE automatically restarts after a stop

    Hello

    I have a question where my laptop start automatically after apparently past Hibernate and shutdown by closing the lid. (I have it set so that it goes into hibernation when I close the lid.)
    The strange thing is that this only happens when it is connected to the power supply. If I close the lid when on battery, it goes into hibernation and remains closed as it should.

    It all started when I changed my power supply mode of "Balanced" to the 'Performance '. Put back to "Balanced" didn't help, and not affecting the setting the lowest. In addition, he used to come back from hibernation automatically once I opened the lid, this happens is no longer.

    I'm not sure if it is a hardware or software problem.

    This weekend I reinstalled the laptop using the recovery disks provided and applied all updates and patches for Vista, but the problem remains, so now I'm leaning more towards it being a hardware problem, even if I have no idea what kind of hardware malfunction could be the cause.

    Does anyone have an idea what might cause this behavior?

    All of these parameters are well known to me because I use the Satellite P200 with Vista. I have tested almost everything about the parameters energy saver and everything works fine. Saving energy for L40 and P200 is the same and there is no difference. Because of this I really can't imagine that there is a hardware problem.

    I hope that you understand very well that you can set this for all profiles of three in two possible situations (on battery and plugged in). What should happen when the lid is closed belongs to Vista power settings. Try it please change all of these settings in the advanced power settings.

    To be honest, I think you make a mistake.

  • Windows failed to restart after installing Nokia PC Suite

    Hello world

    I hope you can help me with my problem. I have an old nokia pc suite version family installed in my laptop (about 6 years old - basic Windows Vista Edition operating system), but today I decided to upgrade to the latest (suite version 7). I was able to install it successfully. When I launched the app, it worked fine, but when I plugged my phone (Nokia X 2) via a USB cable which has been when I started having problems. When I inserted the usb cable provided with the phone to my laptop, a prompt appears that my machine was installed the drivers for my device. After about 5 minutes, the installation is complete and it prompted me to restart my computer and so I did. Before it turns off, the machine said he finished the updates first and then he did. When he returned, Windows doesn't have to load and restart my computer.  The full error message: "cannot start Windows. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To solve the problem:
    1. Insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer.
    2. choose the language settings and then click on "next".

  • Customers of Windows automatically restart after the upgrade of the tools

    It's scary. I just upgraded one of my ESX to ESXi 4.1 Update 1 clusters. I logged on to a Windows Server 2003 client and clicked to upgrade VMware tools. Nothing seemed to happen, then, after a few minutes, that I noticed that the icon in the toolbar of VMware Tools turn red, then he returned to the blue without any warnings and the tools of State on the host said 'OK '. As it was just done in the background.

    Then it just restarts the host without asking...

    Has anyone seen this? Looks like a pretty serious bug to me.

    Matt

    When you upgraded to VMware tools - did you choose the Interactive - or non-interactive?

    Interactive - will allow you to stop restarting

    Not interactive - does it automatically

  • Nine (3 days out of the Box) HP Envy 700-230qe automatically restarts after the initial boot...

    I have now a whole new desktop 700-230qe HP Envy (after about a month in the loop of the HP Technical Support).  But again, I have problems.  I took late delivery December 23, 2013.  After giving him enough time to become the temperature of the room, I opened the box and replaced my old HP Pavilion h8 - 1210t with envy again desktop computer.

    Took my time and made sure that everything is properly connected - then pushed the power button.  Everything seemed to work perfectly - until what the brand 20 minutes - when the system powered off and rebooted itself.  But for the rest of the session, everything went well - no problem.  It was Monday night.

    On Tuesday morning (December 24, 2013 - on Christmas Eve), I pushed the power button once again and the system started fine.  But 20 minutes later, it turned off and rebooted itself.  But for the rest of the day everything went well - even if I had to make several reboots all reinstall my applications and migrate my data.  I started to wonder if I still had problems.

    Christmas day (December 25, 2013) is the same thing.

    And once again on Thursday (December 26, 2013) - I finally called HP Technical Support.  I spoke with a gentleman (Terrence) - he accessed remotely my system which makes me nervous (but these guys of Nova Scotia are very good and are savvy customers.  He looked around - ran MalWareBytes and CCleaner - and said that he saw nothing thaat would be a problem.  We agreed to wait a day and see what would happen.

    Rolled Friday autour and you'd know it's the same thing.  Then, I called HP Tech Support and spoke to a lady (Norma) who, after having read the file of description of situation and asking me my name, phone number, email address (which they ask you every time you call - you would think they write this stuff and keep it on file), she immediately decided that the best thing to do is to 'Recreate the IMAGE' on my drive - to which I replied 'NO WAY '.  This seems to be the standard response, if they can't fgure out - recreate the image on your disk.  They don't seem to care about all the work you put into the construction of our system with applications with associated and all data - they want to just Blow-It-Away.

    It made me so angry that I have immeddiately contacted my case manager company HP with the history.  These people - business - case do an excellent job, at least the one I did a great job.  And I know she'll get to the bottom of this situation and go to a happy camper.

    Anyway, if anyone has the same problems with their machine - I'd be interested.

    Kind regards

    I did not read all the answers, but what my qestion... Why are you screwing around? HP has a 21-day return policy, so you can ask them to replace it with the same model or another model as they will send you a FEdEx shipping for a full refund or Exchange label. I wouldn't waste my time with a question like this on a new computer.
