Is it possible to get Windows 7 Pro to recognize more than 4 GB of ram?

I added and additional 4G of ram, is it possible to get Windows 7 to use it?

Hi Joseph,.

Using Windows 7 Pro 32-bit or 64-bit?
Unfortunately, if you use 32 bit, 4 GB of RAM is the maximum.
However, if you don't use a 64-bit, go to control panel > system > advanced system settings > under 'Performance' settings > Advanced tab > change under "virtual memory".
Here you can set pagefile size to be set automatically, or you can set the size manually yourself.

  • Pavilion dv6: cannot get Windows 10 to work for more than a few days before video fails

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 with two graphics cards (Mobile Intel (r) Graphics and Raedon (TM) HD 6490 M). I installed the new Windows 10 twice and had a lot of success for about three or four days, then the display did not work. I was able both to restore Windows 7 but I want to take advantage of the free upgrade to Windows 10. Does anyone know of an incompatibility with my HP Pavilion dv6 and 10 Windows?

    It could be windows update tries to give you updates of adapter bad display every time. You have updated automatically whenever you install windows 10? If so, update the manual and ignore all updates that show the AMD, ATI and INTEL. I had the same problem but not with windows 10, I had it on windows 7 and 8.1 with the same computer, I didn't go to http://support.amd.com/en-us/download . Then select the automatically detect and install download and run it. If the screen turns off right after finished installing your drivers, then it must be the war video card causing problems.

    Maybe it's your video drivers are fighting eachother for domination, when the screen messes up, try to hook up an external monitor, if your computer has an additional port. Let us know.

  • How can I get Windows 7 Pro 32 bit automatically connect to drives mapped to the startup?

    How can I get Windows 7 Pro 32 bit automatically connect to drives mapped to the startup?

    Hello

    It should connect as much as the other computers with their car are on the account users are properly configured, security passwords are defined and firewall do not block.

    If the system is only yours and there is no need of local network security, enable the guest account on all computers, give them all the permissions and there will be less to worry about connection mapped, but local drive without security.

    PS Ce preceding is based on cable connections. If the connections are wireless, it's another story.

    Due to the maturity of the wireless adapter and their support through the OS, automatic connection could not occur.

    Wireless is great, but most of us try to sneak out of it the uses it was not designed for.

    my computer with windows broken and now my new computer does not have windows, is it possible to get windows on my new computer from my old?

    Hello

    You tell us what type of license you have.

    If the former was preinstalled, NO, you cannot transfer it.

    Read this information:

    If the laptop came with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), this product key supplied with the laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.

    OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) is related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when dies of this machine.

    The above applies also to OEM system builders licenses.

    License of operating system in detail, that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

    And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

    You can try to format the disk in the format exFAT?  Open computer with the inserted Flash drive.  It just right-click on it and select format.  The last option, you will see is exFAT and there, use the menu drop down.  Select and format the drive using this.  Then after it's done, right click on it again and select Properties.  You'll see the ReadyBoost tab.  Click on it and it will let you know if the device can be used and that therefore to ripped it on.

  • There was an update to Windows XP sp1 would recognize higher than 127 readers ~ 137 GB, why this update was not in the version later service pack?

    (1) there was an update to Windows XP sp1 would recognize higher than 127 readers ~ 137 GB, why this update was not in the version later service pack?

    (2) where can I find so that I can then reinstall windows XP, updated to sp1, install the patch to see the complete player to sp2 and 3 can be installed?

    original title: supervision XP

    Maybe the disc has been formatted as part of your original installation of Windows XP with a pre - SP1 version of Windows.  At that point, he could only format the drive as 137 GB.  After you upgrade to a post-SP1 version of Windows, look at your hard drive with Disk Manager (start-> Run-> "diskmgmt.msc").  It can show the rest of your unused space that you might then be able to allocate in a second partition.

    If you want to keep one big partition, you will need to get a 3rd third party tool that can extend your current 137 GB partition to use more of the available space.  Google for it, plenty of them out there including those that are free.

  • Allow the use of more than 4 GB of RAM on 32-bit Windows

    Hello, I am running Windows 7 32 bit on a computer that has more than 4 GB of RAM (10 GB to be exact), but I understand that Windows 7 32 bits by default can only use 4 GB of RAM. My processor No. Execute (Data Execution Prevention) active and PAE (physical address Extension) also active.

    Hi tjratis20,

    The link below will give you a pretty good idea what exactly the EAP.

    https://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/Windows/desktop/aa366796 (v = vs. 85) .aspx

    Upgrading to a 64-bit operating system would increase significantly the amount of memory available. See the link for Windows memory limits below.

  • Is it possible to install Windows XP Pro. SP3, with its bootable CD slipstreamed, in an external USB2 media (HARD/flash stick drive)?

    Hello!

    Is this possible? I know it is slow due to the speed of USB2, but it is only for rapid tests and do not want to mess with my internal hardware (HARD drive has an old Windows XP Pro. Installation of SP3 with lock hard ups with videos - need to understand if it is my software or hardware) in my current computer. In addition, it doesn't help that I have a disability (cannot yet use a screwdriver).

    Thank you in advance. :)

    I have a laptop Samsung 9 Series, about a year ago and it came with Windows pre-installed pro 8.

    There were some problems with it and that's why I had removed Windows 8 and installed Windows 7 above. Unfortunately, the OEM recovery partition was also erased in doing so.

    I have the original OEM product key and wanted to know if there is a way to now install Windows 8 on my system, my real goal is to get Windows 8.1 on my system (which I intend to do after I have first win 8).
    I tried to use the Windows 8 Upgrade Wizard, but I get an error "the product key cannot be used to install a version of windows 8" when I use my OEM product key.
