My aspire 3680-2022 (equipped with 512 MB of ram) is expandable to 4 GB (via 2 each 2 GB cards)

Removing the 512 MB card (1 slot) and replacing it with a 2 GB card works fine.  Relocation of the 512 MB card in the Groove 2 also works very well.  Replacement of the 512 MB card in slot 2 with a 2nd 2 GB card does not work.  Power led of the computer turns on, but only a black screen follows.  To check the 2nd 2 GB card is good, I replaced the 2 GB in slot 1 with the 2 GB not working is slot 2 and it works very well in location 1.  User guide States the ro 4 GB upgrade is eligible using 2 each 2 GB cards.  Am I missing something?  Help!

    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.

    Windows XP instead of Vista.

    I would like to install Windows XP on my computer and get rid of the Vista operating system.  Can I do this?  I only have 512 MB of Ram and 32-bit processor.

    Hello

    There are a few things that you would have to do to install XP instead of Vista:

    1. contact the manufacturer of your computer and see if the XP drivers are available for your computer model to make sure that XP has worked properly in this regard.

    2. If the XP Drivers are available, buy a XP disk operating system / license. Try local computer repair shops because Microsoft sells more than XP and online sale buy you pirated copies can cause. Be very careful.

    3 XP runs with 512 MB of RAM, although a little slow by today's standards.

    4. do a clean install of XP. Make sure that all your data is backed up as the hard will be cleaned of everything during the Installation of XP.

  • The Acer Aspire V Nitro VN7 - 792G - 709L is equipped with a camera Realsense from Intel?

    The Acer Aspire V Nitro VN7 - 792G - 709L is equipped with a camera Realsense from Intel?  I'm looking for a computer laptop 17 "Skylake founded with an Intel Realsense camera and screen 4K.  An article in September read:

    «Compared to the Broadwell and Haswell, the Nitros material Skylake get new versions and DDR4 RAM, faster wireless connectivity, a slight exterior redesign (the lid is covered with a metal foil now), more choice screen (including the options of wide gamut UHD to be 15 and the 17-incher) and a USB port gen2 with Thunderbolt 3 support 3.1.» Nitro blacks also get faster PCIe 3 rd gen storage options and a webcam Intel RealSense optional will be also available for them from December. »

    It is now December and I can't tell which models have the camera Realsense and those who don't. They say just "Webcam YES". The Acer Aspire V Nitro VN7 - 792G - 709L stands out because of the price.  It's $400 more than the fitted with similiarly VN7 - 792 G-752J with the only obvious difference being a 512 GB SSD instead of a 256 GB SSD.  The hard drive more nothing can possibly justify the $400 price difference make me wonder if this is the model I am looking for.

    What I can see, is that the Realsense camera is an option on the Black Edition Nitros, VN7-* 92G series to early 2016.

  • Acer Aspire 3680 RAM upgrade speed

    I have a 2 x 512 MB of RAM running on 533 DDR2 on Acer Aspire 3680. Do I need an upgrade to the speed of memory DDR2 667 on Acer Aspire 3680?

    Hello Charles,

    Thank you for reaching out to us to Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you want to know if need to upgrade RAM on your Acer Aspire 3680 laptop. Ideally, if you are facing problems with low performance or you want to speed up the performance of your computer, then it is considered a good idea to upgrade RAM.

    RAM is an acronym for "random access memory". The "random" part means that any byte of memory can be recovered without touching the previous byte.

    Note:

    If you are considering upgrading RAM, make sure that it is compatible with the motherboard of the computer as an incompatible RAM can result in no start-up situation. If you are not comfortable opening the laptop to insert the RAM, I would recommend that you contactAcer support for more information about the compatible RAM and also ask them to install the RAM on your computer.

    Hope that the information provided is useful. Let us know in case you need assistance while working in Windows.

  • Equipped with mobile broadband with Lenovo B560 / SIM card / no reaction if pushed SIM card

    Dear Forum

    I have byued "nine" one lenovo B560 - quiet price specifications.

    But now I'm trying to connect to internet with my SIM mobile broadband WebClient and do not find a way to do it!

    The laptop is equipped with a SIM-Card-Slot-In card and throug this Slot I can see some golden conectors.

    But if I turn on wireless with [Fn] + [F5] I can't see the WLAN on/off switch card.

    Even the installation of 5 ReadyComm has not resolved my probs.

    My mobile is Win7 home premium with the typical standard configuration, no change.

    Is there something that I did not?

    I appreciate any help, thanks in advance!

    Greetings - sand

    Hello mate,

    It's not because you have a card reader sim you have a modem installed inside.

    If your laptop is wwan ready, it comes with the sim card reader and installed antenna, and that's all.

    If you don't see the wwan modem in the Fn + F5 menu it is probably because you do not have a modem.

    Take a look here to see if you have a wwan modem or not: http://consumersupport.lenovo.com/us/en/configuration/configuration.html

  • ACER Aspire 5742 i5 with 16 GB of RAM?

    Hello

    I have an Acer Aspire 5742 i5 model, now with 8 GB of RAM.

    I tried to install the two 8 GB DDR3 modules, but the machine will not work. It will boot, but crashes on Ubuntu when I connect.

    I tried memtest86 and it crashes almost immediately.

    I've already updated the BIOS with the latest version I could find (1.30), but not luck...

    When I go into the BIOS, he notices the extra memory, although the screen shows only 4 characters (6384 instead of 16384).

    I tried just one 8 GB modules, one of them with another 4 GB (12 GB total) etc. All attempts have resulted in the same way: Boot, but the accident.

    Officially, I know it supports only 8GB, but the other laptop where I write is also an i5 that officially goes up to only 8 GB, but is now happy with the same memory modules...

    So, I was wondering... is - this really impossible to have 16 GB on this model? Or is there a workaround? I searched (Google takes me...) and I couldn't find a solution...

    At least, I would like to know the reason why it does not work... BIOS?, Chipset? CPU?

    Thanks in advance.
