Memory upgrade cannot be found.

This is my first time on a community forum. I have a HP/Compacq, Compacq Presario desktop computer.

Model: CQ5205Y - 64-bit win 7 Home Memory Specifications:

240 pin DDR2 SDRAM PC2 - 4200 MB non ECC unbuffered memory

64-bit 2MB memory upgraded to 8 MB Max.

My question is, I spent an hour on the phone with HP support, tech told me once that he could not find compatible memory sticks for updating my pc. He said that it would cost $69, 99-99, $99 to buy memory sticks.

Where can I buy, what to buy for my model CQ5205y, Desktop/Compacq Presario?

spend at least 4 MB 2MB. I do not know what plant actually installed in the case, because he is still guaranteed inder.

bought three months ago. Technical support said that I can open this case myself to upgrade. Is it better to take the CPU in

a "pc-Store" don't want to mention the name of the store, there have a technical support, upgrade and buy memory sticks it?

How will I know best brand to buy. Can you please, please help a novice a bit with this? I have installed hard disks, ram in older models, but it scares me that I could buy, put in the specs of bad memory. Thanks and I hope someone can help, I can install chip memory without violating the warranty?

Hi, your computer has the following specifications:

DIMM types supported: PC2-5300 (667 MHz) or memory PC2-6400 (800 MHz) Non - ECC, unbuffered memory

Supports DIMM DDR2 2 GB modules

The max memory is 4 GB

No matter what brand of memory will do

  • HP Compaq 6000 Pro SFF: HP Compaq 6000 Pro Compact (SFF) - memory upgrade problems

    < <! UPGRADE MEMORY SHOULDN'T BE COMPLICATED! > >

    Chassis: HP Compaq 6000 Pro Compact

    Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo @3. 00 GHz

    RAM: 2 x 1 GB

    OS: Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

    I can add more technical info on request.

    Recently saved this PC of my friend tries to throw it. Everything is fine with the PC. It works perfectly and there is no material visible failure wihtin the PC either. He just bought a new and had no need for this one.

    Before turn me this into a House mutli-purpose server, I decided to upgrade the RAM.

    So I did some research and found this page: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01883661

    DDR3 240-pin DIMM 1333 MHz non - ECC, Max 4 GB per DIMM slot, Total Max 16 GB module.

    I went and bought RAM Corsair. Link to the product: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/cmv4gx3m1a1333c9

    I decided to get 2x4gb and upgrade later if I felt the need.

    I was happy to install in the PC. one in DIMM 1 slot and the other in the DIMM 2 slot.

    BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!

    I thought that maybe the slots are wrong, maybe they have to odd numbers then numbers.

    So I changed the RAM of DIMM 2 DIMM 3.

    Once again, the annoying ringtone.

    I even tried leaving just the 4 GB DIMM 1 and tried to start the PC, but nothing helped.

    I tried a lot of different combinations with the end result is 5 annoying beeps.

    After that I thought that maybe, just maybe, an update of the BIOS can change things.

    So I installed Windows 7 (I can't stand Windows. Arch Linux FTW) and performing a BIOS update.

    I then installed the new RAM again. Yes... frickin 5 beeps AGAIN.

    I am extremely disappointed at this point. I spent already $ 70 on a computer with free access.

    I read the forums here, but I couldn't find a thread with a solution for me.

    Is there anyone on this forum who could lend me a helping hand?

    Any information would be gladly appreciated.

    PS Please report any stupid error, I did. Stick and stones could not curb my bones.

  • Max Memory Upgrade for Pavilion a810y

    How can I find the AMT of max memory I can put in my Pavilion a810y?  It of sites that say 4 GB and other telling that to 2 GB.  Is the real answer please stand up.

    Hello:

    Your PC would have the Intel 915 chipset.

    If the motherboard has no memory, each with 1 GB of memory, 2 slots then you're at the max.

    Locations of Intel 915 chipset memory cannot manage more than 1 GB of memory.

    The crucial memory upgrade link I posted said your PC had 4 locations of memory, so that the info is wrong.

    If you upgrade to W7, I recommend you only go with the 32-bit version on your PC.

    A 64-bit system requires more disk space and memory to run as a 32-bit system doesn't work - not double, but, with only 2 GB of memory, a 32 bit OS will perform a little better that will be a 64 bit OS, but who is to you.

  • HP ENVY Notebook m6-1105dx: question to DDR3L DDR3 memory upgrade

    I have a laptop of HP ENVY m6-1105dx.

    I would like to upgrade from 1.5V to DDR3L 1.35v DDR3.

    Is this possible without damage to my laptop?

    Thank you

    Joan

    The upgrades only to memory that can be made to your laptop is installation of memory modules that are guaranteed compatible by a manufacturer of memory.

    Your laptop is not like a mother gaming for a desktop computer. You are limited to the settings "protect me from myself" available in your BIOS. You cannot change the tension of memory to allow the motherboard to accept other modules of memory. Installation of memory with others that the specifications published by HP or other than guaranteed compatible memory modules will probably reward you with no experience to have fun a non laptop startup.

    That said, I recommend you do a search on google for HP ENVY m6-1105dx memory upgrade. Stick with well-known brands to avoid surprises.

  • 9150 memory Upgrade - Question once again

    Good day to all,

    I have 2, Dimension 9150 who receive upgrades. The first machine was fine with OS WIN 7 / 32 PRO. Updated BIOS (A07), not installed the required software, no problem, everything no problem. RAID driver install also, no problem. Problem I have is the memory upgrade. Get machine 2 update, but not until this problem is resolved.

    Been revised post old topic of memory and still has not found an absolute remedy to my question. Machine (1 and 2) are 2 GB; 4 512 PC2-4200 (all locations showing on bios config).  I installed 4; 1 GB PC2-5300. Problem? Must not like system accepts 4 GB maximum and is also accepted speed Max.

    My problem is 2 GB in slot 1-2 (white) are good, no problems (boots to windows without error beeps). Check the BIOS and find sticks of memory are reading fix it. When I add the other 2 sticks of 3-4 (black), error on boot beeps and lights 1-3 lights telling me memory error.

    I recently updated a dimension 4700 and used memory not dell Komputer Bay. Could see all the modules and showed 3.76, so I bought the same memory for this machine. I know that in the past, Dell machines are "FINICKY" when it comes to memory.

    Is this the case? If so, Crucial memory has been discussed and I might add 2 (2 GB each)? That's what I was not able to see the answers. Part of the crucial says Yes, post only memory. The other Yes was that I could use sticks of 2 GB. Spec note 1 GB is max stick, per slot.

    I am at a loss, if you're looking for an idea on a direction.

    Yes, low density 2 rank INTEL chipset compatible ram works fine. The other way to say it isn't that 380 Precsion ecc ram works fine.   The GX620 has the same problem where we will see more ram by the bios but total ram is limited to 4 concerts by the chipset.  Upgrade to a precision 380 allows a full 8 gigabytes of ram.

    You could put 4 x 2 gig and he would show even in the bios but the ram would not be usable and the machine does not start with 64 bit OS.

  • time capsule airport cannot be opened because the original item cannot be found

    I just purchased a Time capsule airport and can't install. It flashes orange, and although that Time Machine backs up on it, and I can access the internet, I don't remember upward the back-up because I got the following error message:

    "'Airport Time Capsule' could not open the original item cannot be found".

    The printer is connected to the Capsule by USB works.

    I'm installing via an iMac.

    Help, please!

    Thank you

    You first need to determine what is at stake that indicates the LED "blinking orange.

    To make your iMac:

    • Run the AirPort Utility.
    • Select the Time Capsule
    • In the pop-up window, all questions will appear in the status section.

    Please post back your findings.

  • When I try to print a web page it says selected printer cannot be found? Never had any problems until I loaded Windows 10 down. I even updated to fIREFOX.

    When I try to print a web page, it comes up with the message selected printer cannot be found.
    It was ok until I downloaded Windows 10.
    I updated Firefox to the latest edition, but still the same message appears.

    Any ideas?

    Hello, please try refreshing firefox and see if that can solve the problem...

  • Why Firefox takes me to a page that says: "Oops Page cannot be found" when I click on a link in a secure site. Not with IE: only Firefox.

    If I go to a secure site and click on a link, it take me to "Oops Page cannot be found". I have reset Firefox, uninstalled and re installed, disabled my Add Ons and any other suggestions for the forum. Nothing works and that this does not happen with IE. Is the bottom line that I have to use IE for these sites? I prefer Firefox but can not solve this problem.

    You found, buddy. It was my AVG Security Toolbar. My computer will be vulnerable to the virus if it is disabled?

    Once again, thank you very much for your time.

    KUDOS to THE MODERATOR that solved the problem.

  • Songs cannot be found

    Install new computers.  ITunes downloaded with success and filled library, but many songs not play and receive the message 'song cannot be found' I can locate individually, but then I have to delete the original.  Y at - it an easier way to do it.

    The "missing file" error occurs if the file is no longer where iTunes is expected to find. Causes possible is that you or a third-party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, one of its parents, or the reader, records it feeds has been a change in the letter of the drive or you have moved a non-portable library to a different path (see make a split cell library for more details). It is also possible that iTunes has changed from waiting for the files in the presentation of pre-iTunes 9 post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice versa, and so looking for a bit in the wrong place.

    Select a track with an exclamation point, use Ctrl - I to get the information, and then click No when asked to try to locate the track. Look under the file tab for the location that iTunes thinks that the file should be. Now look around your hard drive. I hope you can locate the track in question. If a part of your library has just been moved, renamed a folder or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse actions. If the difference between the two railroads is an additional music directory in a path, then it is a problem of layout. I can explain more if this is the case. If everything is where it is supposed to be trying to fix the security permissions for iTunes for Windows.

    In some cases, iTunes may be able to repair itself if you go through the same steps with Get Info, but this time, click on search and browse the lost track. He peut then offers to try to automatically correct the other broken links. Although he said something like 'use the same location' I think he expects to find titles in the same provision, artist / album, they were previously, with a systematic change to the path.

    If another application like Windows Media Player has moved/renamed files, or the library was moved from OS X to Windows, then chances are that subtle differences in naming strategies it will be difficult to restore the media to the precise path that iTunes is pregnant. In this case, as long as the missing files somewhere, you should be able to use my FindTracks script for reconnecting to iTunes. See this post for an explanation of how it works.

    If you want me to try to provide specific advice, please post back the following details:

    1. The location of the media file under Edit > Preferences > advanced
    2. The location of a sample of missing follow indicated under Get Info > file > location which begins file://localhost/
    3. The real path to the file which you gave 2 details.

    Hello

    The easiest way to see if the error occurs due to the memory card is to remove them and restart the unit. If the unit works properly without resend memory.

    I found what RAM modules are compatible with your device:
    256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
    512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
    1024MB (PA3313U-1M1G)

    All modules of this are tested with your laptop model and they should work fine.

    Good bye

    By clicking on the sidebar in the finder, received the error of the object:

    I spend a lot of stuff around recently because of a SIN that went down.  A lot of backups, transfers etc.

    Just as moving things to normal.

    Have all my backup files.
