In the manual it says the:

Thank you very much

Hello

Probably will work, but will be using the bus system board settings.

What is the meaning:

Your processor, 2.2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T6600, has a 800 MHz FSB (front side BUS) speed

The speed of the FSB RAM DDR Original it's 800 MHz (PC2-6400, 800 MHz, DDR2)

If you insert this (PC3-10600 1333 MHz, DDR3) RAM you pay RAM at 1333 MHz FSB but your unit of Board of Directors system will use only 800 MHz, 533 MHz will be not use and probably your battery will be lost cool quickly and you might have errors in the OS.

Conclusion: Do not use DDR3.

  • Pavilion DV3-4060es: 4060es Pavilion DV3 CPU upgrade

    I tried to upgrade the laptop (pavilion dv3 4060es) i3 350M to i7 740QM cpu.

    When I plug the processor I get no video.

    I have the latest bios intalled (F.23, March 2016)

    The service manual indicates that the i7 740QM is a compatible processor.

    What is a compatible processor?

    What do I need to configure something in the BIOS before upgrade?

    No, you make a very common mistake. You cannot just look at the list of processors and assume that one of the processors will work in all versions of this series. Look at page 17 of the manual. Different system cards are listed as follows:

    For use only with Intel Quad Core processors 611348-001

    For use only with Dual Intel processors Core and Core2-599414-001

    For use only with Intel Quad Core processors (1 GB) 622627-001

    For use only with Dual Intel processors Core and Core2-622626-001

    So you need a motherboard Quad in order to install a Quad processor. The fan and the heat sink is the same. HP has more boards in stock so you would need to find one on eBay or contact an HP Reseller:

    I took a quick glance and came to look empty, but a little harder could turn into something.

  • OptiPlex 960 - can he use DDR3 memory?

    I recently bought a lease Optiplex Dell 960MT.  It came with 2 GB memory DDR2, I need to increase.  I can get 8 GB of DDR3 for the same price as the 4 GB of DDR2 memory DDR2 prices are much higher than for DDR3 RAM.  According to the service manual Dell Optiplex 96, in 960 Opti chipset is 'Chipset Intel Q45 Express w/ICH10DO' http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/desktop-optiplex-960-technical-guidebook-en.pdf . According to the specifications of Intel for the 960 Opti chipset, it can use DDR3 memory http://ark.intel.com/products/36527/82Q45-Graphics-and-Memory-Controller-Hub.  So, I found a few retailers who sell a refurbed Opti 960 which, claim, have the DDR3 memory in them http://www.amazon.com/Dell-Professional-Professionally-Refurbished-Refurbisher/dp/B0057GPUXE.  So is the Optiplex 960 able to use DDR3 and, if it is, what specs?

    Fails in a DDR2 DDR3 slot.

    If the two are the exact same length and the number of pins, they have a different architecture.

    Also the "notch" on the cylinder is in a different location, so you can't physically put DDR2 ram in one slot of DDR3, or vice versa.

  • HP Pavilion 17 laptop-f113dx: Ram memory upgrade

    Although this would mean taking this laptop apart to do this, I want to know if the RAM memory is expandable for the HP Pavilion 17 laptop-f113dx.

    A site specific Web says it is expandable to 16 GB.  The vehicle currently has 4 GB of RAM and all I want to do is double that - go up to 8 GB.

    I wouldn't take this laptop out to see that it is not extensible.

    Can someone give me a heads-up on this update for this laptop?

    Thank you very much!!

    Hello

    Through 2, 3 page in this manual:
    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c04427554.PDF

    There are two slots for RAM, you can put two 8 GB of RAM of the same exact brand & plug as shown in the manual. Then max up to 16 GB is possible.

    Data sheet:
    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c04454103

    Go through page 104, 105 in the manual steps of replacement are not easy, and I would say you contact center of HP service in your region for assistance if you are under warranty as it will void the warranty for major disassembly can cause unexpected problems, if you're not used to it.

  • HP Pavilion 15 t issues with Internet connectivity can be used under Windows 8

    So I just got my new HP Pavilion 15 t-e000 CTO Notebook PC last week, it runs Windows 8 & amp; It is a 64-bit.

    The only problem I've had is to stay connected to my wireless Internet. The connection stops at random intervals saying 'Limited' instead of 'connected '. I have to constantly disconnect and connect to my WiFi. It's particularly frustrating when I am trying to download something that lasts longer than a few minutes because the Internet connection cuts, and I have to start the process.

    I tried pretty much every "difficulty" people have posted that worked for some people. No luck for me. Sometimes it seems that he will stay connected and then I try to connect to a web page or download something and it turns off again.

    -Turn off the "Allow computer to turn off this device to save power" under power management in the properties of my wireless connection section... DID NOT WORK

    -By using the command prompt to reset the network card... DID NOT WORK

    -Running the network and Internet, and convenience stores something... Didn't WORK * update: if I run the connection test network via the HP help/support on my desk Center, while the connection says Limited, I get the notice that the 'default gateway was not available"and the router has been handed over to zero and issue fixed, etc. BUT if I run the test, while the connected said wireless, the test still says there is no problem. And although the test 'fixed' the issue, it does not because the Internet always cut again.

    -Updates Windows has installed new updates several times... DID NOT WORK

    -Forget the wireless network and set up as a new... DID NOT WORK

    -With the help of my computer right next to my wireless router... DID NOT WORK

    Used wireless router is: Cisco Linksys Wireless-G 2.4 GHz router to wide band as well as our network is WPA with a security code. We also have an Internet DSL SpeedStream thing (sorry, I don't know what it's called). The Compatibility Center said that this router is compatible with Windows 8. Other computers running Windows 7 and Windows Vista, iPhones, iPads and all work fine.

    My laptop uses Intel Centrino Wireless - N 2230 and the light is on and it still says ' device working properly "in the properties.

    For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated because I am at my wits end.

    Thank you

    Therefore, it seems that my problem with the limited Internet connection has been resolved. I didn't use my computer for two days and this afternoon, when I turned it on I was still having problems. However, I went to the HP Support Assistant, and it appeared that I had a few updates to download and install, so I let him do his thing. It took awhile because the Internet kept cutting out, but once the update for the wireless Intel have finally set, my connection is REMAINING CONNECTED. Finally!

    I don't know why when I went into the properties wireless it says "device working properly ' and when I tried to update the driver it says"your driver is the latest version"or something else.

    I suggest you just go to the HP Support Assistant and updates in the section "Updates and the updates of". It was a bit random, but touch wood my looks of problem connecting wireless to be gone.

    Hope this helps

  • HP Pavilion P6-2212D: what brand of ram can I use for Joshua-H61-Μatx?

    Can what brand of RAM I use for Joshua-H61-Μatx?

    Hello

    If the new DIMM specifications correspond to the existing DIMM specifications then you shouldn't have a problem.  You can download and use CPU - Z to determine specifications.

    HP would be a place to start or the underside of the manufacturers.

    I would recommend that you try the tools of these manufacturers: Corsair, Kingston and Crucial. Once you have determined the DIMMs you need, then commercial support contract or technique to verify that you have selected the correct DIMMS.  Buy directly from the manufacturer is generally preferable that they will stand behind their product.

  • Upgrade Hp pavilion dv3-4160ee?

    Hello world

    I will be grateful for your help

    Concerning

    Forget the processor... the i7s of this first generation just run really hot and are not much faster than your i5. In fact, the clock speed is slower, so that they are only better for programs that can take advantage of the 4 hearts which is not a lot of programs. In addition, it is costly and difficult.

    Upgrade to 8 GB of RAM and an SSD will be more than enough, and it can be done by the end user without difficulty. Here is the Service Manual:

  • HP Pavilion DV3 - 4031TX Windows 7 32-bit upgrade to 64-bit with the OEM installation?

    Hi all

    I have a HP Pavilion dv3-4031TX that came with Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit OEM preloaded.

    I want to move to the 64 bit version of Windows 7.

    I have run Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor and confirmed that my hardware is compatible with Windows 7 64-bit.

    I don't mind doing a clean install.

    I have my product key OEM with me, but no disc (BONE came preloaded).

    Is it possible to switch to 64-bit by doing a system recovery?  If Yes, where can I change the installation options? (as clicking 'Custom' instead of 'Upgrade' in the retail version Installer)

    I'm not sure if the OEM installer comes with this option.  Can someone tell me? (screenshots will be appreciated)

    Another question, if the OEM Setup program does not come with 64 bit and I have to clean install the retail version, my OEM product key will work?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    No, this is going to work. You definitely need DVD setup and key in your work of peut of the machine. Hope this helps (burn to DVD and use it to install):

    Hello

    Unfortunately, you will have to pay for the upgrade to Windows 7. The free upgrade to W7 end around March-April 2010.

    The XP downgrade should come at the same time with the machine (IE an installation CD). May be a bit late now, but you can always contact HP to check.
