At the forum of the hp users, we can only recommend rated memory specified in the maintenance something beyond manual this is something that you need to do to see if it works or not.

http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02666747

page 13 of 150 list memory specifications and the installation program.

You can try installing that as long as the RAM corresponds to these specifications on your own. I would say that it might work, but you need the chipset of content can block you the expansion of the RAM as well. So there's what to watch out for to do something like that.

  • Pavilion dv7-6157 can be upgraded for the games?

    I bought my son the Pavilion dv7-6157nr two years ago and he has problems with graphics on the high-end gaming, he plays. They freeze or crash. It has 8 G DDR3 SDRam, 2 generation Intel Core i7 2.2 GHz - 3.10 turbo and a radeon HD 6770Ms graphics card. Video memory it says "itchable graphics"... What does that mean?  This computer can evolve in a way that would help the graphics? Y at - it a graphics card or driver upgrade? More graphics memory can be affected?

    I'm tired of hearing that suck laptops.

    Laptops are not really designed or constructed for the high end games. I doubt that adding memory will make much difference. Given that the two most important points (CPU and GPU) cannot be updated easily, it is a losing battle.

    The only other options I can suggest are...

    (1) a HP System Recovery to return the computer to a factory like State

    (2) do a clean install of WIndows 7 and try to use latest drivers for chipset manufacturers

    (3) buy a new computer that exceeds the requirements of game

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • Can not put 4 GB of ram in the Pavilion a6600f?

    My Pavilion a6600f came with 3 GB of ram and 2 GB key died... so I decided to upgrade to 4 GB. According to everything I read - Vista Home premium x 64 will accept ok. Then, I studied the type of appropriate ram (SDRAM ddr2 - pc2-6400 240-pin) - I also confirmed that the motherboard accept (FoxconnNapa Mcp73M01H1) and got a pair of 2x2gb.  BUT... when I try to put 4 GB of ram, I get either no charge for windows or black screen.  I checked that the new ram works and can use one of the 2 GB with my old 1 GB = 3 gb very well.  Why can't I install 4 GB?  Are there settings or something I'm missing?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    ~ Sandy ~

    Hope this will help you. Just looking for answers for you...

    Have you tried the two sticks with the 1 GB?  They both work?

    Are the two sticks of DDR2?  No errors?

    It's Non - ECC memory only, no?

    Because as you mentioned, there is no Microsoft bug.  If I were you, I bring them back and try another brand.  Upgrade memory should be a very simple.  Nevermind, you are having so many problems with it.  I hope this helps.

    Pavilion 15-n201ax?

    We may need to refer to the owner's manual here:

    Your repair manuals

    Officially, it supports only 12 concerts. Your model has a single module of 8 GB if you have an open slot. Unofficially, users here can have reported that add another 8 GB for a total of 16 concerts will work fine. It's something you take the risk of making but it is not official.

    The part numbers for the appropriate memory are listed on page 42. You must DDR3L-1600 SO-DIMM.

    If you want to go formal, the 4 GB module is: 691740-001

    Is this on amazon.com:

    http://www.Amazon.com/HP-691740-001-1600MHz-PC3L-12800-memory/DP/B00CI08FX4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&QID=1437948185&SR=8-1&keywords=691740-001

    You just leave the concert 8 where it is and add the new memory into the open slot.

    On your laptop model, the GPU/APU is soldered to the motherboard. In order to make any upgrade, you will need to buy a new motherboard. You have an idea together wrong GPU/APU can be removed and replaced and this is incorrect. The term APU refers to a processor that has integrated video, so the whole issue on the compatibility between the GPU and APU just missing the mark. On some systems, the GPU/APU is socketed and can be replaced which is used to replace/upgrade the processor and the video function but as stated above, on your this involves pulling and replacing the entire motherboard.

    There is available a little better/graphics processor using AMD A10 - 5745M 8670 M (2.9 GHz/2.1 GHz, 2 GB L2, 1333 MHz DDR3L Quad 25W) for use with Standard Windows. The part of the motherboard is 734824-501

    HP does not store the Council, but I found this line:

    http://www.discounteddealz.com/product.asp?Itemid=327740&gclid=CO78y6rn-cYCFQmCaQodOP0GLQ

    Never heard of this seller and can not be a guarantor, but the price is very reasonable for this Council. I was expecting to be a little more makes me wonder about this seller a little. I would advise to keep what you have. He is very strong for AMD and the upgrade to the Commission on the A10-5745 will result in only a very small increase in performance to a very high cost in money and efforts.

    However, your laptop is fairly new to the issue of the white list. In other words, you can install any wifi card with the right form factor and the number of antennas, not only to the choice of HP. See p. 49. Access is easy. You need a mini-pcie half height with 2 antennas. You have an AMD processor, if you want to avoid the Intel models.

    Something like that would be a top choice of the line with a maximum performance:
