• Pavilion dv7-6b76eo: upgrade of RAM HP Pavilion dv7-6b76eo

  I created a thread really well here and received great help from @Paul_Tikkanen so if he or someone else could help me, that would be great. Don't know why I can't post a reply in this thread again. They either closed the thread or I'm blind. In any case, I have the HP Pavilion dv7-6b76eo and plan an upgrade of RAM. Currently I have samsung 2 x 4 Go PC3-10600 / DDR3-1333.

  1. I think go to ddr4, but what keeps me is some threads I have read saying ddr4 won't even in good physical shape in a ddr3 slot (which is my current) as well as this piece of info from Wikipedia:

  DDR4 SO-DIMM have 260 pines (instead of 204 pin DDR3), which are evenly spaced more close (0.5, rather than 0.6 mm) and are 2.0 mm wider (69.6 against 67.6 mm), but still the same 30 mm in height.

  Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDR4_SDRAM

  • 204-pin SO-DIMM (DDR3) have a single notch closest in the center than at 200-pin SO-DIMM.
  • 260-pin SO-DIMM (DDR4), 69.6 mm (2,74 in.) wide and 30 mm (1.2 inches) in height, making it wider than the DDR3 SO-DIMM, with one notch after pin 2 mm 144 (0,079 in.).

  Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SO-DIMM

  This means that a chip of RAM SODIMM ddr4 wouldn't even in good physical shape in the slot of my laptop?

  2. well, okay... If I have to make my peace with her and stay with DDR3 can I at LEAST faster DDR3 install i.e. PC3-17000 / DDR3-2133 because my current a PC3-10600 / DDR3-1333 is sorta slow sometimes?

  Thanks in advance and would really appreciate an answer to the question 1 and 2 above!

• HP Pavilion DV7 - 4183CL: upgrade of RAM 16 GB for HP Pavilion DV7 - 4183CL

  Hi all

  Am so confused with all the flying on tech stuff.

  You will need to upgrade to a 16 GB RAM installation to get the best out of the game juice. Am running 6 GB (4 + 2) stock the installer which simply do not cut it. Please can you guide me what RAM should I buy?

  I can't give a sense of the markings on my current RAM. It reads - 4 GB 2RX8 PC3 - 10600S - 9 - 10 - PS... WHT is to say all? The new 8GB Rams should I buy read exactly the same?

  Would appreciate if you could help me. Thanks in advance!

  Here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  Your memory tops out at 8 GB, I am sorry to say. But wouldn't you do better game by installing 16 concerts, anyway. You can help video performance a little bit making sure that memory is in mode dual channel which means you need 2 identical modules. If you need to mix the 2 gig you have in there and get a module 4 GB like the one you already have.

  See page 62 for instructions.

  Memory 4 GB 599092-001

  http://www.Amazon.com/HP-VH641AT-4-GB-DDR3-PC3-10600/DP/B0030L3B8E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&QID=1460915079&SR=8-1&keywords=599092-001

  Games just need a sufficient amount of system memory and the upgrade to 8 concerts has a meaning. The real workhorse in the game is the video card and there is nothing you can do to upgrade you. You have the Radeon 5470 switchable video of AMD, which is well quite obsolete but in no case a terrible portable video system.

• Power adapter - HP PAVILION DV7-3150EQ

  Hello

  I bought the HP PAVILION DV7-3150EQ, and it stops itself almost instantly after the initialization of the operating system (just at the moment where the HP Setup programs starts). I have two suggestions for this topic:

  1. the CPU heats too quickly and the protection of the motherboard turns on and off the computer.

  2 in the specification of the product, I noticed the power adapter must have 120 W power (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01997646), but I received with adapter 90 W (adapter fault current may have been replaced by the Distributor, I don't know), and what I think, is that it does not provide the computer with enough power so it shuts down. What I mean, is there a strict rule on food and their use adapters (specified model should be used with the adapter specified etc..)

  Can you guide me I just think, or there might be another problem.

  Thanks for the reply erico.

  I was looking for an explanation on the closure and the motherboard overheating protection seemed reasonable to me. I was wondering is this a common problem or I am luck one of perhaps hundreds of thousands made notebooks with Core i-5?

  I removed the battery and left it on the power adapter, but it's the same thing.

  I did not understand you completely clear. You mean that even with less powerful adapter(>120 Watts) the laptop should work well, and the battery should be charged, but for once more. Or should I contact my supplier and only get the right adapter (120 Watts).

  Best regards

  Contact your provider and ask so he could be replaced by the model in the specifications of the laptop. The 90 Watt power adapter will work, but this isn't what has been specified to be included in the purchase.

  I suggest that you try a hard reset

  Remove the battery and the AC adapter.

  Press and hold the power adapter for > 15 seconds.

  Plug the power adapter (with the battery always off)

  Press the laptop power button.

  Your laptop is now boot into Windows?

  If it is not then

  Press the power button and press the F8 key to enter the BIOS.

  If you are able to enter the BIOS and make the memory test.

  Please post your results here in your thread.

• HP pavilion dv7 1260us: upgrade memory and processor for hp pavilion dv7 1260us

  I was wondering if possible to upgrade my memory and processor... hp pavilion dv7 1260us?

  Here are the specs:

  Plug

  You have an AMD Turion RM-74 processor and 4 GB of RAM. The RAM is DDR2 and it may take 8 GB of DDR2, but that the memory of any reputable vendor is crazy expensive, like $150 ++ for 2 x 4 gig modules.

  Here is the Service Manual:

  Manual

  The top of the page compatible processor is an AMD Turion™ Ultra Dual-Core 35W ZM-86 2.40 GHz with 2 MB of L2 cache

  If you want to go from 2.2 ghz to 1 meg to 2.4 ghz with 2 MB of L2 cache L2 cache, may be a treatment of 20% energy improvement. Not enough, IMO, to justify the difficulty because it is still not in the ballpark of machines of today.

  You can buy the processor from a dealer renowned for $15 with free shipping. That should tell you what the demand is for her. Basically obsolete.

  I replaced motherboards in several series dv7-1000, and it is one of the harder to take apart laptops. Many cables in strange tablecloth and Remora in all directions.

  We are ready to help in any way possible with the upgrade, but in this case probably the best advice that I can give you is "don't".

• Pavilion dv7-3101sa: upgrade Hp-Paviliondv7-3101sa

  Welcome and thank you for spending your time to read my post, I hope you can help me

  So, I got my old Pavilion dv7 3101sa and I was wondering if you could tell me what are the ebst options to upgrade.

  What is the best SSD hard drive that I could buy? Is there a difference between the SSD hard drivers?
  I have 4 GB of ram and I want to move to 8 GB is there any higher frequency should I buy?
  And could you tell me what is the best processor that can run my laptop?
  And the final question is anyway to upgrade GPU?

  Here are all the tabs screen shoots when I run CPU - Z on the laptop.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  Thank you for reading

  This is the top of the page processor:

  AMD Turion™ X 2 Ultra Dual-Core M640 35 - W, 2.60 GHz with 2 MB of L2 cache

  No triple or quadruple-heart is compatible. The upgrade would you take of 2.3 ghz with a cache L2 1 MB to 2.6 ghz with 2 MB L2 cache memory.

  Your service Manual

  Given that these processors are more desirable, they got dirt cheap:

  For $32, I would upgrade. Keep in mind, none of this will help games performance at all. You have integrated graphics card Radeon 4350 UMA which is unimpressive to say the least. The SSD will give you faster boot time and better performance of the app and the 8 GB of RAM would you allow to run other things at the same time. Spend you all this money and do all this work and then be always wanting something better, I predict.

• HP Pavilion dv7-4150er upgrade complete. Issue of processor and HARD drive

  Hello. Sorry for my English. I'm from the Ukraine.

  I want to improve my HP Pavilion dv7-4150er and I need advice from experienced people.

  Now, I have:

  -8 GB of RAM (2 x 4 GB),

  -1 TB of HDD (5400 RPM)

  -stock video (Mobility Radeon hd 5650 graphics card) card overclocked to 700 MHz GPU and 950 MHz Vram.

  -CPU (mobile Quad Core Intel Core i7-720QM, 1716 MHz) in stock

  -BIOS F.29

  2 problems:

  -Slow CPU

  -Slow HARD drive

  I want to buy a few HARD drives SSD for Windows and secondary soft and left for the data.

  Get an increase in the performance of the system?

  On the 'Intel' site, I read that my

  Intel® HM55 Express Chipset Mobile

  is compatible with the more powerful processors. LINK

  And I have a great opportunity to buy Intel® Core™ i7-940XM processor Extreme Edition (8 M Cache, 2.13 GHz)

  But the laptop manual says:

  720QM and 940xm - identical processors. The difference in 'MAX TDP' 45w/55w, 'Cache' 6 mb / 8 mb and clock speed 1.6 GHz/2.13 GHz

  The Intel® Core™ i7-940XM processor Extreme Edition (8 M Cache, 2.13) will work properly in my laptop?

  or not?

  I have read many articles on this topic, but the answer is not...

  And I can't find information on HP F.29 BIOS specification.

  How can I increase a CPU nested way (with another compatible processor) perfomance if 940xm is not compatible?

  Help me please.

  Thank you for your time.

  Hello nickiblackmore.  I understand that you are curious about the upgrade of your laptop.

  Here is a link to Guide of Service and Maintenance of your laptop.  It covers the disassembly of the laptop and can also show you how to replace parts if you upgrade the.

  If you switch to a Solid State Drive of a standard 5400 or 7200 RPM hard drive, you should see a significant performance increase.  This is because a normal hard drive spinning platters and it takes time to locate data on the trays as they are moving.  A Solid State Drive has no moving parts and therefor can locate data much more quickly.

  A CPU upgrade is a much more difficult question.  HP does not recommend that you perform this type of upgrade.  Laptops are generally designed with specific thermal and electrical needs.  If you change the CPU, it will probably create more heat and use a higher power that will cause you problems.  However, if you stick to a processor that is listed in the service (for example in your picture) Guide, you should be fine.  For example, you can choose one of the microprocessors found in the image to upgrade your laptop.  Also, keep in mind that the integral part upgrade as a CPU can affect your warranty (check your warranty here).

  If you think that answers your question be sure to mark the post as solved.  This makes it easier for others to find answers to their questions.

  Have a great day!

• Pavilion dv7 3162nr: upgrade of updates to driver for laptop after Windows 10

  Hello

  I'm looking the latest driver updates for my particular model, and is not on your website.  I have upgraded to Windows 10 and keep the problems with my computer not to wake from standby or hibernation. The only way for me to 'fix' it is to stop completely from the computer, open the applications and all.

  I also wonder if I need a BIOS update.

  I have a Pavilion dv7 3162nr

  Serial No. [personal information]

  Product #WA801UA #ABA

  BIOS date version: F03, 22/08/2009

  Processor: AMD Turion (tm) II Ultra Dual - Core Mobile M600, 2400 Mhz 2 core 2 logical processors.

  Here's all the info I have my specific model.

  Can someone help, please?

  Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the problem, that you are facing is that Microsoft provides only pilots with the most basic features and what you really need for these features in laptops is the specialized drivers written for the specific material found in laptops - and unfortunately, there is no HP Win10 laptop driver.  HP only guarantees the compatibility of Win10 for machines manufactured after August 2013. HP is not no matter what timetable indicating when, or IF, they will produce drivers for older machines.

  There is also no update the BIOS of your PC.

  This means that your PC is probably NEVER going to be fully functional under Win10 because the pilots is needs for all features simply do not exist!  To restore all the features, you will need to do a reset to factory using HP recovery media to its original operating system pre-installed.

  However, if you are determined to stay with Win10, pilot alternatives, you can continue below are...

  You can try to use Windows updates to find the drivers from Microsoft deposits for your device: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03330139

  You can also try following the instructions in this thread: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04763435/

  If Windows Update doesn't give new drivers, you can pursue alternative which are described in the linked Microsoft Windows Insider community thread: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/wiki/insider_wintp-insider_devices/how-to-install-and-update-drivers-in-windows-10/a97bbbd1-9973-4d66-9a5b-291300006293

  If you then run into trouble, install the drivers through Windows Update, you can try to use of Microsoft Windows Update Troubleshooter: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/open-the-windows-update-troubleshooter

  Good luck

  Finally, with the upgrade, are currently available for download drivers (HP Pavilion dv7 - 1273cl)?

  Hi for dog,

  Windows 7 has been available for download on the Microsoft Store until the latter part of 2012 - however, now, you will need to buy an installation disc from a store.

  Windows 7 drivers are available for your laptop - see the link below.

• Pavilion dv7-4180: upgrade Windows 7 to 8

  Hi all

  I have a HP Pavilion dv7-4180 using Windows 7.  I bought a Windows 8 of Microsoft and the Bill says:

  "Earn 8 32-bit/64-bit English VUP DVD."

  Online Microsoft provides this statement (quoted):

  «Download and install Windows 8.1 to Windows 7»
  1. sign in to your Microsoft account
  2. in the menu of left, click downloads, subscriptions and product key
  3. find your purchase Windows 8.1, and then click Download
  4. If a dialog box appears, click Run to start the installation
  5 follow the instructions in the installation wizard to complete the installation of Windows 8.1 "

  Before thiis upgrade, is there advice that I should follow to avoid an honest mistake?  For example, losing a feature because of the upgrade?

  Thanks for your comments.

  Very practical advice.  Device Manager to see 'pilot' listed, or should I navigate on the control panel?

  Thank you.

  AtAF

  You can do this and see if there are drivers that manufacturing has to W8 for that specific material. But you should check the site driver from HP for your P/N and see whether they have or W8 drivers list. Don't forget the older laptop after 2012, the chances of HP with W8 drivers will be slim to none since they do not include support for older hardware.

• Pavilion dv7 - 1247cl: upgrade memory dv7 - 1247cl

  It is my understanding that my Pavilion dv7 - 1247cl can support up to 8 GB memory max.  The laptop will support a 8gig stick, or should it be 2 4 gig sticks?  In addition, if it supports a key of 8 GB, the memory would work faster compared to the two port?

  It's DDR2-800 SO-DIMM memory. I don't think they ever done 8 sticks of concert of this type of memory and if they did, it would be very expensive. The best price I could find on the last person who asked about the DDR2-800 memory for a kit of 2 x 4 GB (8 GB total) exceeded $150:

  http://www.Amazon.com/Komputerbay-PC2-6400-DDR2-800-SODIMM-channel/DP/B003D18Q7W/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&QID=1419373144&SR=8-6&keywords=DDR2-800+so-DIMM

  2 identical modules will run in mode dual channel which is about 8 to 10% of the memory faster performance.  So 2 x 4 is faster that 1 x 8 would be, if there was even such a thing as a module of 8 GB, I think not there.

  I don't think that the difference between 4 and 8 GB is going to be worth $ 155, personally.
