HP Pavillion DV6500 CTO - upgrade of RAM - Help!

Hello

Planning to increase my current laptop HP Pavilion DV6500 CTO 2 GB (2 x 1 GB DIMM DDR - 2 667 MHz) RAM of 4 GB of RAM.

I can only increase to 3 GB because my Vista is 32 bit? Is this correct?

What is the way to run a 64-bit Vista?

Can I upgrade my RAM DDR2 667 MHz for a Kingston Hyper X 4 G 800 Mhz DDR2 NON ECC SODIMM Module or should I stick to 667 MHz itself?

Please let me know. Thank you.

There is no upgrade to 64-bit from 32-bit Windows, you must do a clean install. And Yes, 4 gigs only makes sense with 64-bit Windows. You can put the DDR2-800 in there, but it will operate at speed 667 mhz. Don't bother with 64 bit Vista GB Windows 7, is said by the way.

  • HP Pavilion p6520y desktop PC: need help to upgrade my ram

    I have a HP Pavilion p6520y Desktop PC model #: WW636AA with a FOXCONN 2 92 motherboard, AMD 785 G Chipset. I'm currently upgrading my ram of the current 6gbs maximally whatever my computer supports. My motherboard says it supports up to 16gbs (since I am running Windows 7 64 - bit), and I'm trying to figure out what I should update.  I scanned my pc on Crucial and they gave me a bunch of suggestions, but I still don't know what I should buy.

    Is it smart to upgrade to the maximum ram and what type of memory should I update? In addition, my computer can even support 16gbs of ram? I have receieved conflicting information about it and I need to check the info I got is correct. I will include a picture of my computer listing of Speccy.

    There are a few suggestions on crucial, such as the Crucial Ballistix Sport 8 GB Kit (4GBx2) DDR3-1600 UDIMM LP or the Crucial Ballistix Sport 8 GB Kit UDIMM DDR3-1600 (4GBx2) or 8 GB Crucial Kit UDIMM DDR3-1600 (4GBx2) and so on. (I don't know if you can see the recommended memory when you view my scan. I guess you can, but might as well include some of them that I'm interested in.)

    Here are the specs of the computer of Speccy:

    Thanks for the help in advance!

    The funny thing is, I was about to buy this one right before I posted this, but I just wanted to see what others thought and if I'm right that my pc supports this amount of RAM. Thanks for the suggestion and response

  • Laptop computer ZE5700 The wired connection is not picking up or connection/Can the upgrade of RAM at 2-4 GB

    Help, please. I am preparing my very old laptop that I found in my garage for a work at home job contract. I decided to see if this is true for her to make the laptop to meet the minimum requirements before as I have buy a modernized one. I have no problems with the Wi - Fi connection and I wish it was one of the requirements. But the laptop should be wired. I plugged my ethernet cable in the assigned location, it shows that it is running, because there is a green/yellow light in the port. Even if the CAP is turned on and is, it does not show as a network.

    Also can I take the RAM at least 2 to 4 GB

  • Satellite Pro A120 - I want to upgrade the RAM

    Hello

    I'm looking to upgrade the RAM in my Satellite Pro A120 Model No.: PSAC1E-05C00VEN

    I'm getting conflicting reports as to how this can actually take, some sites say a 1 GB maximum per slot max so 2 GB while most of the others say max 2 GB per slot

    I was hoping you could advise me.

    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

    Hello!

    Your Satellite Pro A120 is equipped with the Intel 945 GM chipset and so you can upgrade it to 4 GB of RAM.
    Only models with ATI chipset can be upgraded to 2 GB and I think this is the reason why some sites say that it can be upgraded to 2 GB and others at 4 GB.

    However, for the upgrade of RAM DDR2-RAM PC2-5300 (DDR2-677). You can buy 2 GB modules for a maximum of 4 GB.
    But don t forget that only a 64 bit OS supports 4 GB of RAM.

    Good bye

  • Satellite L30 - frequent BSoD after upgrade of RAM.

    This problem is almost identical to [this post | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=144540𣒜], but given that the response was too general and did not help, I want to provide more details about my problem and hope for a better answer.

    My L35 (i.e. American L30) came with Vista Home Basic and only 512M of RAM. It was slow, but smooth otherwise. The problems started after I upgraded the RAM to 2 GB occasionally a BSoD will appear, and the computer restarts after a second or two.
    Most of the time, instances of BSoD are not taken at random; usually, it happens when you watch a film or multimedia and online during the wake her up after suspend.
    Also, it happens much more frequently if an external monitor is attached. He does, connect an external monitor and watch a movie will result in BSoD with 100% certainty. My laptop has shared video memory, maybe it's a question here.

    The problem prevailed after that I installed Windows 7.
    Memtest86 + showed no problems with my memory
    Memtest86 covers all aspects of the use of the RAM?

    Is it possible that some problems may be overlooked by memtest86?
    Are there other tests of memory, that I could use, specifically to test the shared video memory?

    Not every hardware problem can be detected software.
    You have tested the RAM with Memtest86 +? Try using Memtest86 (no +).

    In the worst case, you must replace the RAM. Ask the dealer for a new computer. I m sure they will help you.

  • Upgrade of RAM for Satellite Pro 3400

    Hello

    I own a laptop Satellite Pro 3410, it has pentium celeron 600, 64 MB of ram and 13 '' dstn display. I want to upgrade my ram, somewhere, I read that it can be improved with 256 MB, so that there then 320Mo. My question is now, what I have to use 2 pieces of 128 MB of ram or can I use 1 piece of 256 MB of ram. The point is a friend gave me a 256MB ram for PC laptop (pc-100) toshiba, I put it and it seems to work (win2k showed me the 320Mo compleet), but can it be problems, using this a big RAM?

    I hope you can help

    Katja

    Hello

    I think you mean a Satellite Pro 4310?

    Normally it only uses the modules of memory up to 128 MB. But if your laptop is running with this 256 MB module, there should be no problem.

  • 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!

    @nematsvehclav

    I couldn't say with certainty.

    But I have yet to see a 16 GB memory for a laptop card. "Yet."

    2. What are the reference number of this RAM?
    3. In which case reference numbers are not available on the local market, are there alternatives available?

    TIA

    The manual says:

    Supports up to 8 GB of memory system

    Memory modules (DDR3 1066 MHz) ● 4 GB PC3 10600 1333 MHz shared 621569-001

    You would be able to use any DDR3-1333 SO-DIMM (i.e. portable computer memory). It must be low density and which means 8 black blocks on the side of the chip as a module in the image.

    See s. 51 of the manual here for 'how-to ':

    Manual

    It's a older laptop maybe 4-5 years ago, you know? Also if you really 32-bit Windows 7 above you will not be able to add effective memory. It takes the 64-bit version to run 4 or more gigabytes of RAM. Care say that this model comes with 3 GB of RAM and 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium so do not know what you have now.

    Hi, I am looking to upgrade the RAM on ny laptop A30-151 which currently has 512 MB DDR. I need this for work and also because I sometimes do not games. Could someone please tell me what RAM modules I might be able to use and what type of cost, it will be? A

    LSO, I will remove my old RAM unit or will it be a slot for me to put a new? And I'll be able to do it myself?

    Any information would be gratefully appreciated-I'm sorry if the questions are very basic, but it would be a great help.

    Hello

    The A30 151 supports 2 slots of memory. You can use 2 sticks of memory in your laptop.
    Also I know the memory can be upgraded to 2 GB (2 x 1024 MB)
    Compatible modules indicated PC2100 PC2700 DDR - RAM.
    I've studied a bit and found that these modules are supported:
    PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
    PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
    1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)
    PC2100 128 MB (PA3126U - 1 M 12)
    PC2100 256 MB (PA3127U - 1 M 25)
    PC2100 512 MB (PA3164U - 1 M 51)

    I'm not sure that the module costs but you can order the Toshiba ASP compatible modules in your country.

  • Satellite P10 804 will not accept the upgrade of RAM

    Apologies, this is it is a bit long and also if this question has been covered elsewhere here: I had a good nose autour and have not found something that seems to help.

    In any case, I had a Satellite P10 804 during these past years, I bought in the United Kingdom.

    Quite early in my time with this laptop, I upgraded the RAM. It was 3 or 4 years ago, when memory was not as cheap right now, so I bought just a single 1 GB module. P10-804 will take up to 2 GB of RAM.

    The P10 804 came with 512 GB as standard in two modules. My upgrade means I got 1.25 GB, which was in very good health. Everything was fine until the end of last year when the defective laptop; I followed the fault in module 1 GB of RAM. It was a bit awkward since I now live in New Zealand. However, the provider of the RAM was very professional, stood by their warranty, and we arranged a swap. RAM prices had fallen, so I bought another module of 1 GB at the same time upgrade the laptop completely.

    Now the problems really started. The laptop would not simply work with the new installed RAM modules. It would work with one alone, nor even less with my old configuration of a module of 1 GB and 256 GB module. Start and run for five minutes before a freeze; white screen with fans roar; blue screen; frozen screen normal with strange objects; No start at all. everything.

    Everything that works now is my original 256 MB module (his partner disappeared). This leads me to assume that I don't have some sort of hardware failure?

    1 GB modules are DDR333 SODIMM, CL2.5. This laptop will also have the DDR266 modules, and it has been suggested to me, lower speed might work. I can try this option since the RAM prices are * really * low now, especially if I get confirmation of this as a valid strategy possible.

    The laptop BIOS is updated to v2.00 (maybe?), and I also upgraded the HDD to a 120 GB unit (this works very well and is partitioned for XP and Linux). And from time to time I empty the fan.

    Any advice welcome. Thanks for reading.

    > The laptop would not simply work with the new installed RAM modules. It would work with one alone, nor even less with my old configuration of a module of 1 GB and 256 GB module. Start and run for five minutes before a freeze; white screen with fans roar; blue screen; frozen screen normal with strange artifacts; No start at all. everything.

    Reading your message, I came to the conclusion that this issue must be linked to the new RAM module and this module is malfunctioning or is not fully compatible with your laptop.

    The P10 can be upgraded to 2 GB, so you should be able to use two single RAM 1 GB modules

    So it must be a module problem

  • Satellite M70 needing an upgrade of RAM?

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite M70 who suffers.
    It's all slow and despite my music collection among other major programs to transfer on a drive external HARD, my laptop frequently slows down and blocks much to my annoyance.

    I regularly have a frag my HD on a base twice a week which helps a little, and I delete the temporary files, the Recycle Bin as well at the end of each month, but nothing seems to speed it up significantly. I run Spyware Doctor, but he does not reveal anything that would explain such a slow performance.

    Could someone advise me what to do?
    I asked for advice in this regard other suggestions is considering upgrading the RAM in an attempt to speed it up.

    Kind regards

    WMorgan86

    Hello

    In your case I would check and start the MSCONFIG and would disable some background process is not necessary in the Start button.

    The upgrade of RAM would be useful too.
    The M70 would support max 2 GB of RAM and you need DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM modules!

    Instruction how to upgrade the RAM you will find in the user manual!
