HP pavilion dv4-2165dx entertainment notebook pc memory
So I have a hp pavilion dv4-2165dx entertainment notebook pc, and he had performance problems lately, which im pretty sure are problem with him having no not enough memory.
Yes, I'm going to clarify a bit before you go.
I ran clean on my laptop, turned off non-essential startup programs and done everything I could think to preform better, but nothing helped.
At the moment, I have chrome open with 6 tabs, Skype and League of open captions, as well as a few background programs such as Norton and Intel GMA HD Task manager said that he uses about 10% of my CPU, but about 60% of my memory. everything else on my computer seems to work perfectly, so what I'm wondering is if I upgraded the RAM in this laptop from 4 GB to 8 GB, if this would signifigantly increase performance.
I've been watching little ram to replace with if this would work, but I'm near clueless when it comes to computers, especially the RAM, like not committing almost $100 in something only to find out it did nothing.
This is the ram, I was looking to buy, which is PNY Optima PC3-10666 DDR3 SoDIMM 2 x 4 GB RAM that looks like $80, and I would like to know if it would work in my computer, and if it would solve my problems.
My laptop is using the configuration by default he had when I bought it, but here are the specs, just in case they are required:
CPU: Intel Core i3 CPU M 330 @ 2.13 GHz
RAM: 4 GB installed, 3.8 usable.
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Graphics card: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD
Disk space: 446GB (322 GB free)
If you need anything else, it just ask. I just really would like to help with this issue!
Now we are getting somewhere. As I said, this is aka the PC3-8500 DDR3-1066 memory.
It will work for you:

Sir/Madam,
Hello. My laptop is HP Pavilion DV4-2045DX Entertainment Notebook with 4 GB of memory which is 2 coins in 2 locations inside the machine.
Because 4 GB of RAM is not enough to run my system now, I need to upgrade the memory of 8 GB that is 2 chips with 4GB RAM each in 2 slots.
I bought RAM 8 GB chips online ordering
http://www.seifelden.com/8gb-2x4GB-memory-RAM-for-HP-Pavilion-dv4-2045dx-laptop-memory.html?fee=39&f... .Item number: SoDimm_DDR3_2X4GB_B3377
After I pulled out the existing RAM chips, I tried to put the new RAM 8 GB chips in 2 slots, but it does not fit the slot. The detail is that the size of the entire chip is shaped, but the notch on the long side of the upper part does not fit the clip into the machine.
I tried to move clip to match the notch in the RAM chip, but the clip cannot be moved. I guess that there is a mechanism to adjust the clip to match the notch in the RAM chip, but I don't know how to do it.
My question is:
Could you please check why the 8 GB RAM chips do not have HP Pavilion DV4 - 2045DX Entertainment Notebook?How to adjust the clip to match the notch in the RAM 8 GB chip?
Thanks in advance.
It of still expensive but a little more like it:
There are several options on Amazon.com. Just look for DDR2 SO-DIMM.

HP Pavilion dv4-1548dx Entertainment Notebook w / win7 crashes on logout...
Hi all
I have the HP Pavilion dv4-1548dx Entertainment Notebook w / 4 GB of DDR3 RAM and erased the computer and installed a full charge of Win7 Ultimate 64. I installed all the drivers concerned on HP page.
When I stopped, my computer sometimes freezes on the pages of Win7 "Logging OFF... "and while the icon of the ring runs very well, nothing happens and sometimes I have to make a hard closed down by holding the button for 4 seconds power about.
I have a few additional programs installed, would highlight Adobe CS3, ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite, and Office 2003.
Anyone else experienced this or have any ideas?
Thank you!
Thanks for the reply. I note that my problem seems to have disappeared on its own. the only thing I did was to reinstall the wireless drivers, but don't know if it was the solution. It seemed, to the contrary, go in as a result of various windows updates, but it may have been the driver update/reinstall wireless network.

HP Pavilion dv6-3150us Entertainment Notebook not start after sitting on the side.
Hello! I have a HP Pavilion dv6-3150us Entertainment Notebook that works under Windows 7. Last week, I traveled with him in Florida, and when I arrived and tried to turn on the laptop, it wouldn't start. The screen was white with thin lines going through it and the screen turned slowly black. I disassembled the computer and put it back together (which I have experience with, I installed a new fan at the beginning of last year) and he came in safe mode. This ihappened still once I put the laptop in my bag on back and then he pulled out a few minutes later (without even moving) and when I got home. I tested the hard drive and memory, and they both passed. Other that this question, the computer has worked fine. I need to get this problem solved, because I am a PhD student and travel frequently with your laptop. Could someone help me please? What causes this problem? Thank you.
Hey irol72,
Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I understand that your HP Pavilion dv6-3150us is not initialize after being on his side, I understand your frustration and I would start you the black screen troubleshooting with no. Error Messages at startup or start-up.
Thank you

Driversproblem on my HP Pavilion dv6-6001eo Entertainment Notebook PC
Hello!
I want to get help with my device manager. It seems to me that I don't have the drivers installed that I need, but I read in a forum that only the drivers that are required should show, so now I'm not sure. I have the following system: ' HP Pavilion dv6-6001eo Entertainment Notebook PC ' with ' Windows 7 Home Premium '.
My questions are the following:
1. Why have I not 2 on my computer video card drivers? Who do I really or is something wrong? I have "AMB M880G with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 v.8.801.1.2000" and "AMD Radeon HD 6650 M v.8.801.1.2000". When I look at my specifications on the HP home page it says I should have the next video card: "AMD Radeon HD 6650 M (1 GB of DDR3 memory)".
2. Why have I not 6 installed on my computer network adapter drivers? Who do I really or is something wrong? I ' Bluetooth device (personal area network) v.6.1.7600.16385 ', "device Bluetooth (heading RFCOMM Protocol TDI) v.6.1.7600.16385", "Broadcom 4313 802.11b/g/n v.5.60.350.23", "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter v.6.1.7600.16385", "Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller v.7.49.927.2011" and "VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter v.4.2.12.0".
My network connections look like this:
3 why do I get Bluetooth drivers on my network card drivers and a Bluetooth radio? When I look at my specifications on the HP home page it says I should have the following wireless connection: "wireless 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth network connection ' but I don't think I have Bluetooth on my system, although he says in the specifications and in my drivers. Should I really have Bluetooth and how to enable it in this case?
I really hope that someone could help me with this and I would appreciate it a lot. :-)

Hey CrystalDeejay,
Thanks for your questions. In fact, your device manager is just as it should. Your model (like many others) has switchable graphics. It has a discreet graphics card: the AMD Radeon HD 6650 M. Other features include an integrated graphics chip: the Radeon HD 4250. The purpose of having two is that you can have the best of games (or other graphics to high performance) when you want it and extended battery life when you're not playing. The chip uses a lot less battery and it automatically when your adapter is unplugged and you are running on battery power. The discreet 6650M is more powerful and he went to automatically when the power adapter is connected. Therefore, you need both of these drivers.
Your network adapters and Bluetooth drivers are just as should be also. Every item listed has its own purpose.
Yes, you have Bluetooth. You can connect Bluetooth devices to your computer as a Bluetooth headset communication device, or some keyboards and mice are Bluetooth.
To connect a Bluetooth device, make it discoverable and:
1. click on start
2. click on devices and printers right
3. at the top, click on 'add a device '. Your device should be shown in the next window if it is in "Pairing Mode" or "discoverable".
If you have a smart phone, most of the people can transfer some files via Bluetooth.
To transfer files via Bluetooth (select):
1. click on start
2. tap 'blue '.
3. Click Bluetooth file transfer, and follow the instructions.
Let me know if you have any questions! I hope this information is useful

Hello
Assuming that the hard drive has a style of mbr, system partition contains startup files and the Windows recovery environment and it is quite normal to show him the fragmentation - that partition should not be défragmentée, because it can cause problems with the loading of Windows.

You have a spare battery compatible from a vendor in the source line and save yourself money. Just make sure that the seller guarantees the compatibility and gives a 12 month warranty.
