Microsoft XP not grateful not upgrade memory 4 GB

My computer was originally 2 GB of memory, I just upgraded to 4 GB. When I right click my computer it says that I have 1.75 GB of ram which is what it says before I installed the memory I'm on xp 32-bit windows. I checked the bios and it says I have 4 GB. Another website had me add/PAE in the system startup and it still doesn't work. Can someone tell me what I need to do? Thanks in advance :))

Hi blueyelunatic,

This is typical of Windows XP. The amount of memory available for a 32 bit operating system is always less than 4, the exact number varies between devices.

This is a fundamental limitation of an operating system 32-bit could not physically all address more than 4 GB of RAM (which takes all the 32 bits of the address).  But in this 4 GB address space, all the RAM on the device interface cards must also be mapped so that it can be addressed too.  In particular, the whole RAM on the graphics card video must be mapped into the address space of 4 GB.

  • upgrade memory in a Portege 3410ct

    I tried installing memory of 128 MB PA3034u 3410ct, but on commissioning a message comes up saying that the ACPI BIOS is not fully compliant with the ACPI specification.
    I downloaded the latest BIOS setings but makes no difference. Will not start just yet. Clues as to correct the problem, other that not upgrading memory.

    Hello!

    This problem may occur if you add the memory (RAM) to the computer when it is in hibernation.

    When the computer comes out of hibernation mode and load the file Hiberfil.sys, Microsoft Windows detects the change in the State of the memory, and then you receive the error message.

    To resolve this issue, restart your computer.

    If the problem persists, start the computer by using an emergency boot disk, and then delete the Hiberfil.sys file.

  • R50E does not start after upgrading memory

    I tried to upgrade this laptop from the factory of 512 MB to 1.5 GB. I got a Kingston 1 GB DDR - 333 SO-DIMM, but after I installed it, the laptop does not turn. Only the power led is lit.

    I don't know why this happened, because all tests indicate that it should work.

    1. the new stick is ok. I tested it in another laptop and it worked. I also cleaned the contacts with isopropyl alcohol.

    2. the memory locations are ok. The old memory works in each slot.

    3. I tried to install the new one stick in a slot and it did not work.

    4. This update is officially supported by record of IBM and BIOS is up to date (v2.1, December 2006).

    Unless I'm missing something there is a confusing question. Unfortunately, I don't have an another 1 GB DIMM to test with.

    TBut I don't think it's a matter of density. something fundamentally wrong with this system. I just discovered that I can not upgrade the memory somehow, even not with a stick of 256 MB. The system starts only with the current key.

    OK... This is not good, but I have to tell you that...

    I guess it's time to throw the boy part of retirement and move to a new machine...

    Good luck.

  • 6510 b upgrade memory is not recognized

    I just bought an upgrade memory 4G for my 6510 b, which currently has 512 MB, but no matter what combination I install memory, my laptop does not recognize him.

    Based on the specification of the laptop, this is the correct specification, DDR2 667 MHZ PC2 5300 2 x 2 GB SODIMM.

    When I install the new memory on its own (a stick or both) the machine will not start.

    When I install or the other of the 2G stick with the stick of 512 MB (in each slot) machine starts, but does recognize that the 512 MB.

    The stick of 512 MB is a lower speed, PC2-4200 DDR2-% 533, but I don't see what is the cause.

    For me, it was mentioned the memory of some (less known) manufacturers will not be recognized by HP/Compaq machines. This could be the reason? , I bought this, Web, of Koybe Inc., CA, USA.

    Is there something I need to do to get my laptop to recognize the memory or should I return it as inconsistent.

    Thanks in advance.

    Well, there is a version update of the BIOS out there, but I don't see anything in the revision history who does act of memory.  If you have another laptop you could see if the memory works in this machine that you may have just gotten a bad pair, or it can be the cheap good memory that is the question.  Generally, you want to stick with the brand like Kingston or PNY memory, they have a great reputation.

  • Problem upgrade memory R61i - PC does not

    Hi all

    today I installed upgrading memory 2 x 1 GB on my R61i (7650-A6G), replacing it with the 2 x 512 MB standard memory.

    When I tried to restart the notebook nothing happened: only 4 "beeps", the screen is dark...

    I had to reinstall the standard memory of 2 x 512 and everything was OK

    How can I do to make this upgrade successfully?

    Thank you very much

    Thank you very much! following your suggestion, I discovered that a stick does not work; I'll ask the stick for a new provider.

  • I can't open attachments generated in Excel or Word. Get an error there is not enough memory or disk space.

    MIcrosoft Excel cannot open or save documents more because there is not enough memory or disk space.
    To make more memory available, close workbooks or programs you no longer need.
    To free disk space, delete files that you no longer have need of the disc you save to.

    I have 4.75 TB of disk space available. I tried to close open programs and I can't always open attachments.

  • Tecra A8 - not all memory is available

    Hello

    I've recently updated my laptop 4 GB unfortunately same performance of 64-bit (Windows Server 2008 x 64) operating system not all memory is available (only 3318 MB).

    After some research, I discovered that this high memory of 3318-4000 MB is reserved for other devices such as cards PCI interface and graphics etc.

    This is to support the 32 bit OS that can only address the memory in this range.
    This makes the + 682 MB of my memory upgrade the invisible state.

    Usually the Bios supports a feature called memory h_o_l_e * remapping that moves the address space reserved which precedes him the physical memory installed on the machine charging the full memory installed to be accessible on the 64 bit OS.

    Please can you release a BIOS update that supports h_o_l_e * remapping memory or I would like to know if there is another way to get around this?

    Thank you
    * Ps I appologise but I had to change the word h_o_l_e to override this error "your message contains profanity or inappropriate language.

    Hi mate

    Maybe you should check this doc:
    + The requirements for the use of 4 GB of main memory.
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB82022E0000R01.htm

    Here you will find information which is necessary to access the full 4 GB of RAM.
    -The chipset must support 8 GB of address space.
    -The processor must support 64-bit mode instruction set
    -The BIOS must support the memory remapping feature.
    -A 64 bit version of the Windows operating system is necessary.

    If one of these components doesn t give the RAM of 4 GB capacity then your laptop won't recognize 4 GB RAM but only 3.2 GB.

    I have 1 GB of RAM on my PC but I also tried on PC with 2 GB of RAM it does not help.

    Is this a problem with the Microsoft MDAC? I work with Win XP SP3 and MDAC 2.81 SP1.

    I have no idea more wa could be the reason...

    Someone has an idea or the same problem?

Quit one or more applications to increase available memory, and then try again. This issue is out of nowhere because he has never had this problem before.

    Why Microsoft does not make a new version of windows xp and make it innovative, modern design and it may appoint windows xp super and make windows xp stay supported and wanted by the people because of its new design and functionality that you will add

    Hello Alex_88_20,

    That Microsoft remove never any code when a new operating system is created, you can actually say that Windows Vista is Windows XP with an upgrade. Basically, the same applies with all versions of Windows, the latest version is simply grafted on the other. There are millions of lines of code in Windows, Microsoft could never start from scratch to create a new version of Windows. If they did the chances are that it wouldn't work as well as the current version!
