HP205 G4 Intel i35005u: problem with RAM upgrade

Hello

I recently acquired a HP205 G4 laptop with 4 GB of RAM installed in one of the two slots.  It has a free slot and a max RAM 8 GB capacity.  As I have a 4 GB stick lying around, I thought I would be a free upgrade of RAM and so I placed in unoccupied housing and booted up.

My problem is that neither information system or UEFI sees the newly installed stick and States I have still 4 GB of RAM, however, Speccy see the two 4 GB sticks and indicates he has 8 GB of RAM.  It may or may not be relevant but Speccy also States that the system memory is single channel.

The sticks are Samsung and the two DDR3.  They, however, have different bandwidth (PC3-10700 & PC3-12800) and voltage (1.35 & 1.5).  Now as I know the speed will be simply fixed by the slower stick and so both should work.  This leaves the tension, but if it was a problem, I don't expect Speccy to see the extra stick (1.5V) at all.

So I wonder, is tension the key culprit?  Will be 1,5 volt RAM spare part - I have also a 2 GB stick - I simply does not work on this motherboard?  Is there something I missed or can I do to get the system to see what sees Speccy and thus use 8GBs?

Cheers for any help.

Do not use this old memory in this new laptop. If you want to run 8 gigs, get a second identical DDR3L-1600 module. Even if she would go with the DDR3-1066 RAM at this speed, do you really think 8 gigs clocked at 1066 is slightly better than running at 1600 mhz 4 gigs? I say no. There is also the question of the timing of the CPU to memory cycles cycles. You can really shake things up and cripple performance trying to use memory that runs at a different speed that the motherboard was designed to use. The motherboard is to protect themselves by refusing to see and to try to work with this alien memory.

    I don't know about other issues. There are always 'problems' with any upgrade. You weigh against the benefits. I know that you need more RAM. At least 4 GB, maybe more if you can. Don't forget that this system is produced at a time when most of the machines have + 8 GB RAM and when Apple said 'minimum' they really mean it.  I recently inherited a MacBook that has 2 GB of RAM and the Mavericks. When I checked the memory, the use of the system was using 1.95 GB = nothing to run applications!

  • HP pavilion dv6-2150us: problems with the upgrade of processor for an i7-720qm on a hp pavilion dv6-2150us

    Hi all

    My friend recently bought an i7-720qm processor used to upgrade hp pavilion dv6 2 1 5 0 US and I

    summer giving a helping hand by making the upgrade.

    Since the 10 Windows running Google Chrome used up to 70% of the processing of an i3 - 330 m power

    processor, it seemed to be good upgrade to improve the performance of the laptop.

    We checked that the new i7 processor is compatible with the laptop (it is listed as supported by the)

    ( interview guide , page 108), and the seller assured us he tested the CPU on some different

    HP pavilion and it worked fine.

    But when I replaced the processor with the i7 processor i3 and tried to boot up the laptop, only the LED lights

    on the front and the setting of the power and volume buttons would light up periodically. The screen was black

    All the time.

    Thinking I might have made a mistake during the reassembly of the laptop I put the original i3 processor back in

    and it starts fine.

    I updated the BIOS of the F.1C version I found on the internet and once replaced the i3 with the i7 with the

    same results - display off, flashes periodically LEDs. The BIOS updated smoothly, and the correct version is displayed in the main menu of the BIOS.

    I am confused on what could be the problem with the upgrade, everything should work. Is there a BIOS update I have

    missed, or the problem elsewhere?

    Disassembly and reassembly are made with care, and we took care to avoid static electricity. All the rest

    on the laptop works well - I am writing this post on the laptop in question with the original i3 processor in place.

    Any help, advice or general guidelines as to what should be done would be really appreciated.

    Thank you for your attention.

    Hello:

    The problem is that if you look in Chapter 3 of the manual, pp 22-23, there are maps of separate used for the dual core and quad core processors system.

  • Problems with RAM and my Satellite Pro P100-240

    Hi all, I hope you can help me somehow.

    Recently, I decided to go on my RAM upgrade before I headed offshore at the University then everything would be smoother. I had originally the 2x512mb RAM sticks if wanted to go for the best, what I discovered this laptop would be 2 x 2 GB sticks.

    I recently bought these sticks of 2 x 2 GB RAM PC World, where they also checked to see if the supported laptop 4 GB, which I was told that this was the case.

    However, when I got home I installed two strips of new RAM but my laptop will not initialize properly.
    Everything looks like it was started and the lights turn on but the screen stays black and nothing happens.

    I don't understand what is happening, the RAM sticks are not defective, because they both work individually.

    Edit: Ive tried swapping them round in all possible combinations and they don't always work together. So currently I use key 1 to 2 GB of RAM and my old 512 MB one with her.

    What can I try?

    Hello

    I put t know what s wrong with both modules of memory.
    It seems that the two modules may not run correctly together. It is possible, I had some similar problems in the past 8 years since I m a laptop owner.

    My only recommendation is to replace the memory modules and try another.

    Is that laptop supports 4 GB of RAM and it should be possible to upgrade.
    But note; Windows 32 bit OS sees only 3.2 GB due to the limitation of the 32-bit operating system.

Once the software is downloaded and start the upgrade, the upgrade appears just "hang" - nothing happens after 15 minutes, which is much too long to do the upgrade previous updates of Firefox have NEVER took this long and I never had any problem with prerequisites updated to Firefox! My Windows 7 has the latest Microsoft patches. I don't know why this is happening. Any suggestions? For now I give up trying to pass to the 37.0.1 version.

  • Problem with RAM Pro 4600 - Original RAM is not compatible!

    Hi, first sorry for my English.

    I ve had some problems with original module Toshiba PA3069U-M 256 MB of RAM for my Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600.

    History: (# = number of RAM)

    #1 was delivered to the original box from Toshiba and works in the slot A and B without any problem, but was damaged after only 2 weeks (!) --> Distributor sent me a new: #4

    #2 has been delieverd by the same distributor (same tine as #1), but only in the bag to shield static orginal. The laptop shows that the RAM is incompatible in the slot A and B--> I return

    #3 was delivered by another distributor, a few days after #1 was also damaged in the original Toshiba box. It still works fine in both slots.

    #4 was delivered yesterday, but only in the original static shield bag. The laptop shows that RAM is not compatible in both slots.

    The RAM in the box and the RAM that in static shield bag are two RAM Toshiba original from the manufacturing, seems to be quite the same. But still those in the area of work others are incompatible even after a BIOS update.

    Someone had the sampe problem or can help me?

    Hello

    This seems very strange! The PA3069U-M 256 MB Ram Modules must adapt and work! So it may be that no work modules were damaged by sending by mail just packed in Toshiba box modules that work!

    I have the blade that is a M610. its current 3.30 iDRAC6 Firmware version (Build 17), his version of BIOS is 6.0.7. I am trying to upgrade the firmware to 3.50 iDRAC (Build 4). I am upradging by the MCC on the M1000e chassis. I choose the slot of in that the blade is and then start the IDRAC GUI. I choose firmware update and select the firming.imc file that I used successfully on some other M610 blades. After about 30 seconds, he returned with the following error.

    The uploaded image has no verification

    Why?

    I came across the same problem (with a refurb M610, iDRAC firmware has been 2.20).

    I tried to upgrade the iDRAC6 firmware to 3.60 via the web interface of iDRAC6 and it was a no go.

    I tried several browsers (chrome and firefox) and same problem each time.
    I tried to go to firmware (as shown in the accompanying note) 2.31 instead of 3.60 and same question every time.

    I finally managed to update the firmware of the iDRAC6 by upgrading the web interface M1000e and not in the iDRAC6 web interface.

    Operating system device provided are "released" by specific carriers once that they are certified and trained to their support technicians, but still, you are able to load any carrier the same model by following the instructions below. Apparently '3' is not from the same upgrade as O2.

    See the link below to download and follow the simple installation instructions to install 6.0.0.668 in your 9300 OS.

    Make a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > backup. Close the office at the end Manager.

    1. download the OS files to the PC then install on the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.

    https://swdownloads.BlackBerry.com/downloads/contactFormPreload.do?code=D840CC5D906C3E9C84374C8919D2...

    2. go in c:\program files Research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
    3. plug in the BB and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

    Note: Some users may be concerned they will void their warranty of device by loading an OS from another carrier. There is really nothing to fear. Please read more information about it here: http://www.port3101.org/power-users/296-blackberry-os-upgrade-including-betas-myths-dispelled.html

  • Problems with XP upgrade

    System: XP Pro, SP2. Dreamweaver 8 with no extension enabled, update is in progress, it is legal and registered.
    I bought the upgrade for CS3. Downloaded the upgrade file. Turn off other programs including antivirus.
    He has unpacked, I selected for execution. It seemed that he was doing something. No error message.
    I restarted my pc.
    Results: No CS3 on all menus, DW8 is always DW8. I checked the Control Panel Add/Remove and CS3 is part of the list. I clicked on change/remove, and it just hangs.
    I've never had as much wrong with any upgrade for all software before. What is the trick? Why Adobe don't instructions? You would think for $200, I would not spend the hours to do the job.
    If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it because I'm at my end. I'll re-download the file and try again, but I am not optimistic.
    I searched the site of Adobe and google and found only Vista issues, not XP.
    Thanks to all those who can help you.

    Follow-up: The CS3Clean utility does NOT solve the problem. He allowed the installation failed, but it has not solved the problem. I called the Support but nobody with Dreamweaver was available. I was told to look for Technical Notes, what I had done. I couldn't find a technical Note that put an end to the problem. The person sought technical Notes and sent me that I had not found through research. It was kb402048 "Creative Suite 3 and point product CS3 installer silently quits (Windows XP and Vista)."
    Here is a list of Solution-6 which has had a lot of time to spend. The last Solution worked, but only after to add a little. The solution is IE: disable all addons and Reset Web. And you have to restart IE, (it is perhaps obvious to some, but it is not in the manual and who may have missed). Other options included the creation of a new user account admin and using Selective startup (which I had already done).

  • Problem with Windows7 upgrade - Satellite A500

    After restarting my computer in step 6, I have a message "new hardware found - base system device" I tried to search c: and I tried the Windows 7 DVD for the specific file searching and can't locate it.

    The installation/uninstallation deleted the drivers to connect to the internet.

    Can't seem to start installing Windows 7 from the DVD.

    Help, please.

    Hello

    Windows 7 ask the driver!
    It s not installed on the C or the DVD of Win 7.

    I assume that you have improved the Vista to Win 7 and installed not cleaning.
    I recommend a clean installation, because Windows 7 would reinstall and will not use the applications that were pre-installed on Vista.
    In many cases these apps are not entirely compatible with Win 7.

    After the clean install of Windows 7, you could install Windows 7 drivers you will find on the pages of Toshiba.

    But Win 7 drivers are not published on Toshiba page European right now
    If you could use a Toshiba page us to get drivers or should check the European page later

    It seems that many of those who go back to Windows 7 from Windows 10 experience a corruption of the store folder (the folder where messages, calendars and the account settings are stored). According to your storage folder is how complex (several accounts, calendars a lot, a lot of messages number of files), it can be simpler to just create a new storage folder and fills again:

    1. Looking at your list of messages in Windows Live Mail, press Ctrl-Shift-O for Options. On the Advanced tab, click Maintenance and then store the file. Copy the path to locate the storage folder.
    2. Close Windows Live Mail and wait a few minutes (the program will continue to run in the background, while he does his household).
    3. Press the Windows key + E to open an Explorer window, and then paste or type the path that you copied to the (1) in the address bar and press ENTER. This should open your storage folder.
    4. Right-click on the name of the folder in the navigation pane, and select Rename. Call the Live Mail Backup.
    5. A repair must check that all the program files are present and correct and properly registered, as appropriate. To do this, close all running programs, and then press Windows key + R, type wlarp and press ENTER. In the window that opens, select repair all Windows Essentials programs:


      When it is finished, restart the computer.

    6. Start Windows Live Mail and wait the program installs before doing anything. Press Ctrl-Shift-T to start the add your Assistant e-mail accounts and follow the prompts to add your e-mail accounts.
    7. Click once on the work online on the status bar and deconnecter disconnect Internet to avoid interference email downloads, and then use the file > import messages (I Alt - F) and point the wizard to the Live Mail Backup folder level. Do not intervene while the import happens.
    8. Leave the program alone for a while (an hour or two, or even a night or more) to enable him to reindex all your messages, then close and wait half an hour for the program to do his household.
    9. Relaunch the program and look at your messages under folder imported into storage folders. Take it slow, drag files out of any folder and drop in the location you want. Again, give the program time to re - indexing messages in their new location.

    Note that you can not drag files out of storage files. If you want to forward messages to a high plu account folder in the folders pane, you need to select messages to transfer, and then use the right click > move or copy folder. The controls are also available as buttons in the folders of the Ribbon tab.
