• SR2180NX adding memory and a video card, how?

  I finally decided to do a upgrade to my PC but I pushed my brain batty, trying to figure out how I would add memory and if I should update my video card now cause my Sims 2 game, instead of smooth running, it runs a little rough and frame by frame. Very annoying. I also want the Sims 3 to be able to run on my computer, I hope I can get it all done before they release.
  I have windows vista Home premium, and I have a PC I did not do anything for her, so it's a bit as if it was from the factory around a few programs of vanilla.

  Laptop versions of these chipsets may work, but can run relatively slower. Autonomous cards installed in vanilla (not PCIe or PCIx or AGP) PCI slots, such as some GeForce FX variants, will perform badly. Intel chipsets integrated starring parts underclockes would not run properly.
  
  Chipsets integrated such as the ATI Xpress and the NVIDIA TurboCache variants will have low settings selected, but should operate satisfactorily.
  
  Please note that attempting to play the game using video hardware that is not listed above may result in reduced performance, graphical issues or make the game work do not at all.
  The NVIDIA GeForce FX series is unsupported under Vista.

  I know that I have to add memory and a video card, or even a power supply according to the video card, I get. Memory seems simple and easy to do, but the power SUPPLY and the video card, makes me a little nervous, any suggestions on what I should get and instructions on how to proceed will be greatly appreciated Thx! I apologize for this post being so long.

  Adding instructions are here. When you buy new memory be sure and go to the website of the manufacturer of the memory. Use only brands so that they ensure th your product compatibility. Use the memory Configurator tools on the website of the manufacturer of the memory. Here are a few major brands for you: Kingston, Crucial, Corsair:

  Change the power supply: This video on youtube is pretty decent for generic power supply switching.

  Thislinkhas information on opening the cover and remove the cover.

  When you select a video card do not get cards great physically (i.e. ATI HD 4870 / 4850) because they are double wide and does not have limited space. Fantastic cards but are not for the pre-built PC.

  Any ATX PSU fits your case. 450 watts or therabouts enough for almost any addition of hardware on your pc. Do yourself a favor and stick the best brands such as Corsair, OCZ and others. Generic brands are not worth the problems they can bring even if they are cheaper.

• Risks for adding memory to windows AMD Turion 64 / 32 bit operating system - 2 Questions

  Can I add memory to the system of memorization of the AMD Turion 64 / 32-bit operating system, without damage to the laptop computer through Microsoft?

  Hello
  You can add memory and I suggest you to contact the manufacturer for assistance on this issue.

• Speed of memory after adding memory and upgrading the video card problem.

  My XPS 410 ships in September 2007 with a Core 2 Quad (Q6600) 2.4 ghz processor and two gigs of 800 mhz DDR2 SDRAM. Recently, I added two concerts more than 800 mhz DDR2 SDRAM and replaced my GeForce 8600 GTS with a GeForce 9500 GT with 1 GB of video memory. When I started the system, all four gigabytes of memory have been recognized, but was only running at 667 mhz. Can I fix this? This means that the original memory, or the new memory is really 667 mhz DDR2 SDRAM and not the 800 mhz DDR2 SDRAM I paid for? There are other possible reasons for this?

  Hi RuralDigital,

  I will need some additional information to help you best.

  Ø you have 32 bit or 64 bit Vista?

  O do you have 667 MHz RAM in your computer?

  When you use one more memory RAM clocked with one less clocked the two Rams, RAM will run at a lower speed RAM, that means that when you install a DDR2 667 MHz and DDR2 800 MHz clock speed, maximum RAM memory will be lower among the 2 cylinders speed, i.e., 667 Mhz.

  Then I suggest you to check if the speed of the Rams is the same.

• Adding memory and an extra hard drive

  I have a HP 595, which is a little less than a year and would like some advice on the following topics:

  (1) I currently have 6 GB of memory, using 3 of the 4 slots available. I understand that I have a MAX of 16 GB in the system. Can I replace one of the double modes giving a total of 6 GB on the 2 GB with 4 GB, and then buy a new 4 GB to put in the slot to spare, make an another 6 GB, giving me a total of 12 GB OR do I have to replace the existing 3 x 2 GB with more than 3 x 4 GB a new 4 GB or 16 GB total.

  (2) I understand that I can import a new HDD [internal] throughout the system, but the said number of spaces are inside the envelope for this purpose. Also can I mix drive types That is to say SATA and HOTEL.

  (3) If you chose to buy a PCI card to add to the machine, what type and why you would choose. I think along with a card that gives more USB connections.

  Your thoughts please.

  dsc8w,

  ERICO did beautiful work.

  Here is the Service Manual

  Pg15-22 should answer all your questions.

  The departure of Expansion Bay on Pg15 references. It should be a 5.25 adapter "3.5 drive Bay".

  Drive cage hard to 2 bays, your call of specifications for a single drive 1 t installed, see pg 19. You have a ready Bay!

  Your system could come a GTX460 card, which would explain PCIEx16 card.

• wrong time and date in the hp Pavilion a305w pc after adding memory

  I took the tour of the hp Pavilion a305W (Windows XP) PC to a place where they have added memory because it was very slow.

  After that, it would not start by itself, and the Date and time are not good.

  Thanks for your help.

  Hello

  Very probably during the process of adding more memory you may disrupt the battery CMOS (or RTC) or even the chip for the BIOS itself. Please (no need to do this):

  • Reinstall the components autour RAM slots
  • Change new battery for RTC
  • Check the BIOS and reset the date hour away
  • Check the date and time of Windows.

  Kind regards.

  I have a macbook pro 15 "model 9.1 4 GB of memory and want to extend to 8 which is the model of memory should I buy for my fastest machine, I have for several years.

  See:

  Get only the memory of a place as above, since Macs are picky about the memory. Another place is crucial.

  If you can't swing for 16 GB (2 X 8 GB) replace a strip of 2 GB with a key of 8 GB.

• Can I replace the memory and not lose what is on the old memory for a Mid 2007 Mack computer desktop Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GHz processor speed, 1 CPU, 4 MB of Cache L1, the 4 GB memory at 800 MHz bus speed.  Only 1 slot can play memory, the other is damaged

  Can I replace the memory and not to lose what's on the memory of the former?  I have a Mid 2007, 20 "desktop Mac, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GHz processor, 1 CPU, 4 MB L2 cache, 4 GB of memory, 800 MHz bus speed.  I have a backup device.  A RAM slot is damaged.

  You are confused of RAM and disk space available.

  RAM stores information temporarily while the Mac is enabled and the application is reached. RAM replacement has no effect on the long term of your information storage.

  The hard drive is where your information is stored in the long term. If you replace your hard drive, you need restore the information from a backup.

  FYI, for your iMac, the maximum RAM is only 6 GB.

• Toshiba value added logical and device for general use - what is it?

  Hello

  I completely put in place a new system on the Tecra S2, Win XP and everything. All the drivers from the site Web of Toshiba helped but now only a single 'questionmark' remains in the hardware Manager:

  Toshiba added value to general use and logical device

  I cannot find a driver anywhere or so for that. What is it indeed?
  The laptop works fine, no problem.

  I was wondering if possible to upgrade my memory and processor... hp pavilion dv7 1260us?

  Here are the specs:

  Plug

  You have an AMD Turion RM-74 processor and 4 GB of RAM. The RAM is DDR2 and it may take 8 GB of DDR2, but that the memory of any reputable vendor is crazy expensive, like $150 ++ for 2 x 4 gig modules.

  Here is the Service Manual:

  The top of the page compatible processor is an AMD Turion™ Ultra Dual-Core 35W ZM-86 2.40 GHz with 2 MB of L2 cache

  If you want to go from 2.2 ghz to 1 meg to 2.4 ghz with 2 MB of L2 cache L2 cache, may be a treatment of 20% energy improvement. Not enough, IMO, to justify the difficulty because it is still not in the ballpark of machines of today.

  You can buy the processor from a dealer renowned for $15 with free shipping. That should tell you what the demand is for her. Basically obsolete.

• Upgrade Vista 32 and 64 for the recognition of additional memory and game performance

  I have a question for the computer.  I have a HP Pavilion Elite m9040n who has Windows Vista 32 - bit SP2 with 3 GB of memory.  From what I've been able to determine, the 32-bit version doesn't recognize up to 3.5 GB of memory and I need to install the 64 bit version of Windows Vista for additional memory can be installed AND recognized.  This system comes with the Core 2 Quad Q6600 (K) 2.4 GHz, at 1 066 MHz front side BUS and Socket 775.

  My question - would be upgrade to Windows Vista 64-bit and install another 4 GB for a total of 7 GB of extra memory for increased game performance.  Also, I have a graphics program which because of some image sizes (up to 96 inches - 19200 pixel everywhere) program that the bombs on me with "out of memory" messages.  I play World of Warcraft and Starcraft 2 right now.

  Thank you.
