HP Pavilion Elite m9600t memories configulation

A few years ago, I bought this HP Pavilion Elite m9600t. It came with Windows vista x 64 with 6 GB of RAM (2 GB X 3). Currently this system is running Windows 7 Ultimate x 64. Now, I would like to add a few memories more. So, I check on HP web page to my spec of the motherboard.

Here is my motherboard:

Manufacturer PEGATRON CORPORATION

Model of TRUCKEE

Intel chipset provider

Model X 58 chipset

Chipset revision 12

Southbridge Intel supplier

Southbridge model 82801IR (ICH10R)

Southbridge revision 00

On the HP Page, it says:

Must select one of the following options:

3 GB (3 x 1 GB) PC3-8500 DDR3

4 GB (2 x 2 GB) DDR3 PC3-8500

6 GB (3 x 2 GB) DDR3 PC3-8500

8 GB (4 x 2 GB) DDR3 PC3-8500

12 GB (6 x 2 GB) DDR3 PC3-8500

Since my system has 6 DIMM slots and up to 3 locations (2 GB X 3) is used. So, I have 3 free fill DIMM slots. Now my question is:

  1. Can I use the 8 GB DIMMS (8 GB x 3)? If I can add 24 GB more in the system.
  2. Do I have to buy exactly the same brand it of modules as on the 6 GB (2 GB x 3) I had on the system?

I'm looking for your advice. Thank you for your time.

  • Pavilion Elite m9600t: OS reinstall for HD "Advanced format" on Windows Vista

    I have a HP Pavilion Elite m9600t desktop provided with Windows Vista. Recently my 640 GB Hitachi hard drive gone bad. I ordered a new one (Seagate 1 TB), installed and tried to reinstall the Vista operating system with the provided HP Vista recovery disks.

    During installation, the following message appeared: "installation of Windows could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer." I did research and found this happens on Vista with discs advanced formatting (AF). My new record is AF.

    I have read some threads on the forum of HP who say that you can always do the operating system installed, but you have to do by creating a new disc of installation with your product key, and then mix a partitioning in there. I'm confused on where to find the ISO files for Vista (64-bit SP1), as well as how to partition before installing the operating system, and which must be partitioned.

    I have a drive to upgrade Vista to Windows 7, but I can't use it until Vista is installed. Is there a way I can ignore the Vista installation process and move to Windows 7? Who could help me to avoid the issue of the AF.

    Thank you!

    Hello:

    You can check this link to know how to clean your drive of W7 upgrade installation.  I assume you have the W7 upgrade of the key product that will be necessary.

    http://helpdeskgeek.com/Windows-7/clean-install-Windows-7-using-an-upgrade-disc/

    Another thing you can try, is to format your new drive to NTFS MBR and get rid of the advanced formatting.

    You can use this disk management software and create a bootable CD, and if everything goes well after you format the disc as it was supposed to be for your PC, you can use the recovery discs if the clean install from a disk upgrade W7 does not (because of the problem of the AF).

  • Cannot install windows 8 on Pavilion Elite M9600T (KX745AV-ABA) with Vista 64 BIT

    I can't install windows 8 on my computer. I contacted Microsoft and he has worked for three hours and said I had a problem of graphics card driver. I use a Nvidia GeForce 9800GT, which came with the computer.  When I try to upgrade to the latest driver (306.97) located on the Microsoft Update site and also on the Nvidia site, the screen says no signal and falls asleep. I worked with a rep from Nvidia for a week now and he says this isn't their driver that is causing the problem and I have to contact HP. I don't know what else to do. I deleted the working driver Nvidia (SP41066) also and tried to install windows 8 and received the same message "Windows installation was not successful" and me back to Vista 64-bit. I don't know what else to do. Can someone please, or am I just out of luck. Thank you

    I changed the graphics card to a GeForce GT 630 and that solved the problem. Thanks for your help

    Symptoms: green light on PSU on, when the power button, fan starts briefly but turns in a few seconds, the power button / go to yellow to blue. Green light on the power supply goes off as does the light on the power button. System is then recycled; Power supply turns on, button / stop lights up blue, fan starts... Etc. no beeps. Tried to clean the dust, reset by pressing the power button / stop for 30 seconds. etc., no change. Haven't tried filing a brief and sectioning to the parties as the workspace is low. Any ideas?

    UPDATE: tried at first to replace the power supply. Apparently, this solves the problem. The computer was for two days now, so that this question should be marked resolved.

    Thanks for your reply. AS stated above, I replaced the power supply, which seems to have solved the problem.

  • HP Pavilion Elite e9180t - replacement motherboard

    So some time, HP has done a service to replace motherboards on defective Elite systems.  There was even a Web site configuration to help with it (www.hpelitedesktopsettlement.com).

    Unfortunately, the site is no longer active and all links to HP's internal documentation are not valid as well.

    One of my clients has long lived with the random blue screens, and we're finally going through the review process it.

    Who should I contact to get this replaced motherboard?

    Please see the information available on the HP Pavilion Elite Desktop Class Action Lawsuit settlement on the LWSEP for the HP Pavilion Elite e9150t, e9180f, e9180t, m9600t, m9650f, e9280f, e9280t and computers e9290f. "If the court approves the proposed settlement, HP will post on its website a notice on repair program with instructions on how to make eligible arrangements to receive a repair. You will have 90 days after this notice was posted to contact HP for repair repair. "It seems that HP has posted the LWSEP notice on or around 12/01/2011 and that's why you got until about 01/03/2012 to take advantage of the LWSEP.

    Previously, I suggested that people "contact HP customer support directly and see if they will replace the Commission under this program has expired." Please post back with your results. If you are not successful, I can try to contact HP on your part.

  • How to add to my HP Pavilion Elite HPE-590uk Usb 3.0

    Hi does anyone know if I can improve my HP Pavilion Elite HPE-590uk for usb 3.0 and if so could you recommend a product that I could buy to do this.  Thanks in advance.

    One of them check it:

    http://www.overclockers.co.UK/showproduct.php?ProdID=CC-003-AK

    This is to use a pci-e x 1 card. You have 2 these slots available. This will show you how do:

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02255267.PDF

    See the section on the replacement of a card.

    Instead of plugging on the long black slot which is a video card plug into one of the slots black short. You have Windows 7 I think which means that you will need a driver, but that should come on a CD with the card. Will need you a power connector (molex) on the map, too.

  • HP Pavilion Elite HPE-500f desktop PC

    HP Pavilion Elite HPE-500f desktop PC - I would like to upgrade food, video card and hard drive. Can I use a SATA III hard drive? Can I use a 4 Gig ATI video card? Those are the weak links in this computer in the measurement of performance, Windows 5.1 index. The ram has already been updated to 16G. I would use a hard drive WD Black edition.

    Thank you!

    You can use a SATA-III HDD but the 785G chipset only supports SATA-II. You won't see any difference, and the SATA-III is backward compatible. You have a 300W power supply. You can put in a better and with a minimum 500 or 600 watt PSU, you can install any videocard, pcie 16 x which will be in good physical shape. In retail offices, there is simply not as much space as in a custom build Tower and best video cards these days are huge things two locations. Don't forget, it fits with room to spare, or you will have problems of air circulation.

  • How to access the BIOS on a Pavilion Elite e9237c with mouse and keyboard wireless?

    I have a desktop computer Pavilion Elite e9237 with a wireless keyboard and mouse. I tried to access the BIOS by pressing F10 at startup with no luck, and I can't access any of the other menus for the start-up eiither. I don't have a PS/2 port on my computer, so I can't get a wired keyboard and mouse. Does anyone know how to access the BIOS with this configuration?

    I bought a USB keyboard and he answered in the same way... No bios access. I then studied why it did not work and discovered that it was the way in which he has been connected to the computer. I had initially plugged into a USB hub when he was not working and I moved it directly into a USB port and it works! I plugged my keyboard wireless directly into the USB port and it works too! Thanks for your help... I wouldn't have thought of it if it wasn't for to recommend you the USB keyboard.

  • Pavilion Elite m9428f PC Wireless Connection

    I have a Pavilion Elite m9428f desktop PC.  It is connected by cable/wire to a router that is connected to a modem to cable box.  I bought a HP all-in-one computer and want to move my desktop computer in another room in my house, but to be able to continue to access the internet.  My desktop computer can be connected wireless to my router (Linksys), which is compatible with the wireless?  If so can you recommend where I can find instructions on how to set up.

    In addition, I read that my office has an antenna wireless inside the tower.  In addition, the original hard disk supplied with the computer crashed a year ago.  I have more files/programs of HP who were on the hard drive.

    Any information is appreciated. My knowledge in this process is limited, so if there is a way to do this in an explanation "for Dummies", it would be useful.

    Thank you for your time,

    Tom

    Hi, Tom:

    According to the specifications of product for your PC, it should be ready completely wireless.

    Look in the Device Manager. You should see 2 NICs listed. One wired and one wireless.

  • HP Pavilion Elite HPE - 532 s: 'Secure Boot Configuration' not found?

    Hello support, I wanted to disable startup secure for my office.
    I have a pavilion Elite HPE - 532 s Bios 7.15 I followed the step of many posts, but I don't have it under the heading "security"?
    I am on window 10 64-bit UEFI.
    I wanted to disable, because I have a new GTX 960 graphics card and it stuck on the HP logo at startup all the time when I use the new card. !!

    I tried to disable the security slot, but no matter what I do I get a black screen for my card both old and new so I have to reset the bios settings.
    Help me please.

    Thanks for the additional information.

    Here is my diagnosis/notice:

    I don't think you'll be able to get the GTX 960 to work with this system.

    Why it won't work in the UEFI/GPT:

    It will not work in the UEFI [I think] 960 GTX is one card of UEFI and you must disable secure boot to make it work. Your BIOS is only "UEFI compatible" originally planned for Windows 7 [which does not support secure boot]. If you are unable to disable the secure startup, you can not use this card.

    Why it won't work in legacy/MBR:

    It won't work in legacy because it's a single card of UEFI.

    My suggestion:

    Return to the legacy/MBR and use a graphics card that has a dual BIOS BIOS/hybrid or one who supports in particular the Legacy BIOS as described in one of my previous posts.

    Some other things to consider:

    You PSU has enough power for this card? I think it takes a minimum of 400W PSU.

    You connect the auxiliary power connector?

    Have you tried to disable "Intergrated Graphics" in the BIOS [as appropriate]
