I installed 4 GB of RAM in my computer Windows XP which has detected correctly 4096 MB, but the system information that 2 GB of Ram available.
I recently installed a maximum of 4 GB of RAM for my Win XP Home computer: four tips of 1024Mo in 4 available memory locations. Story: It came with 512 MB of RAM (256 MB two cards to 2 of the 4 slots). I sometimes treat files large image or video in a few applications, and if I do too much without saving the files, I get something like "...". not enough memory to complete... "and can not save either and lose an hour or two of work, all frozen, treatment and once had to turn off the computer by pulling the power plug (nothing else worked). Later, I added two boards of 1024 MB and moved the two 256 MB for the other two locations. The computer has detected correctly the RAM and showed 2,560.00 of available physical memory total MB of RAM in system information and available physical memory 2.00 GB (currently about 550 MB, current process). I put 4 GB page file. That helped a lot with the processing of these applications, but if do not attention, the same "...". not enough memory... "thing and I lost the job. So I added another 2 identical cards of 1 GB replacing the two planks of 256 MB. The 4 GB of RAM, I've added exact IS correct type for my computer. Set the pagefile to 1.5 times RAM available, etc, so that's it of OK. NOW THE PROBLEM, if it'S a PROBLEM: in the information system RAM is detected OK, showing 4,096.00 MB total physical memory, BUT not much more available memory: 2.16 GB available physical memory! Total virtual memory 2.00 GB remains the same in both cases, even if I put the pagefile of 12 GB. Page file space shows what I put in more added about 2 GB.
SO THE QUESTION: Is all the 4 GB of RAM (essentially) available for use with my operations high megabytes to image and video processing applications? Or is Win XP steal my RAM and makes the page file? What happens here? You wish to know if I've lost $120,00 on two more strips of 1 GB of memory. Thanks loads, if someone can tell me.
Did not have a pretty good test in image/video applications to find out if I won anything yet. Always the same 550MO ongoing process. And Yes, I spent hours on the things in forums of online learning on the page file and RAM, most of which I knew already, but there is no explanation on the information system does not more than 2 GB of RAM available.
Thanks loads, if someone can tell me.
"My OS is Windows XP family 32-bit." End of the story for the possibility to use up to 4 GB of RAM. No, there is no way to magic, you can force a Windows 32-bit operating system to use all 4 GB of RAM. There is a difference between the question of whether a motherboard will support a certain amount of memory and an operating system be able to access memory. Sorry, you missed this fact in your research. Oh, and if you want to try one of the many Linux distros do not forget to use a 64-bit - after checking your processor is 64-bit also. That yours is not.

I have AMD Athlonrocessor with 512 MB of RAM. Information on the system says that I have only 448 MB of RAM and the pc works really slow. This may be the cause and how can I solve this problem? Thank you.
Annica
The other 64 serves as video ram and it's perfectly normal. This isn't the reason why the computer is slow. You have an old operating system, with very little ram, and I'm sure that you use a lot of app.

Hi, I'm in big trouble.
I just try to repair my Windows XP service pack 2/3 upgrade.
The system asked me to save the copy, but after trying to save the computer freezes.
I try several time to reinstall and now the system asked me to reinstall the software, I need to reinstall the earlier version of Windows that has been '2000', but unfortunately I throw away a few months ago.
I bought a new hard drive were I have installed a new version of XP 64-bit.
Is it possible to transfer all my documents, files, settings, etc in the new hard drive?
All advice avaiable?
Thanks in advance.
CICO.
Disconect your drive, insert your disk again as master, install Windows XP on the new drive. Once msupdate was executed and the manufacturers drivers have been installed and the sys works ok.
Stop, connect the old drive as slave, restart
Transfer data as needed. You may need to "take possession of records" - see victory help (donot attempt the transfer settings)

Hello
If I decrease my first partition on which I have installed windows 7, which has 100 GB of available space, will I in bulk all the files of the OS or data on my first partition?
Thank you
Johan
Johan,
Before you begin this task, assume that you will lose everything.
Make a system image - see link on the left side of the opening screen of Windows backup.
Make a disc repair system [this can also be done starting from a link on the opening screen of the Windows backup] or a Windows 7 installation disc to use to restore this image if necessary. Then test that you can boot from it before starting the main task.
I resized a partition with no problems successfully, but there is a risk of serious or even catastrophic problems.
Good luck

Hello, just set up a new computer laptop and wanted to reinstall CS5 on it. The system is El capitan. When I finished the download and try to install I got a message saying the installation file is damage and saying it s better power eject it. I tried to download several times and in different places. That is wrong. Does´NT CS5 run on El Capitan? Or what else? Thank you.
CS6 and previous programs have not been tested and will not be updated to run on Mac El Capitan
-which means you are trying to use CS6 and earlier at YOUR risk of having problems
-You can get CS6 and previous programs to install and run, or you can not (some do, some don't)

Hello everyone, after correctly installed the creative cloud adobe now I want to update, the program also tells me to do. But the problem is that connection only goes up to 2% and stops, every time freaking. Weeks before. What is the problem? And Yes, there is an internet connection
Good afternoon
Thank you for your response. It was the right solution, but I missed something in your response. I had to start several times to download / update. Throw/delete (or the procedure of the description) files don't get past not like you described, but I tried something myself and it worked finally.
But I have to ask: If this problem continues, of course, that a workaround is available, why is this a problem in the software persists, exist?
Maybe you can't give answers, but I'm just wondering, well thanks for your help.

Here is a link that will guide you step by step on how to install the function of the start button.

750-103D want: I want to install a 3rd HARD drive but the system will not start
Desktop motherboard has 5 heads SATA (of which 2 were used for the first DvD and HARD disk in the original Setup) and the box has 3 bays for HARD drive, but there is no additional power from the PSU cable.
I installed a new SSD as my main and designated record the 1 TB of HARD drive that came with the desktop as my secondary school and office works just great.
Now I tried to install an another 1.5 TB HARD drive for storage. I used a SATA power cable Y (1 male to 2 females) to extend the existing cable. However, to my great disappointment, the system is unable to start up. I guess that supply POWER 300 watts current is insufficient to start 3 disks to a single supply with extension cable.
Issues related to the:
1] sells HP a 500-watt power supply with power cable for SATA 3 HARD drive?
[2] is a compatible power supply on the market (ie. not HP) who can stand in 750-103D envy? Brand/model and how much?
Thank you.
Hello
Probably, you have misunderstood my response. Unplug the original HD boot drive.
Your question is not the power supply lack of insufficient power. I have observed remains with HP computers with a power supply that would support three HDs off a 300 Watt SATA power cable voltage.
Perhaps the third HD is formatted incorrectly or is defective. The other possibility is that your SATA Y cable connection is defective. You also need good 5V and 12V. In addition, if you have made any hardware changes to your PC you have not indicated, then it is possible that you may need a bigger power supply.
