Pavilion p6608f: upgrade memory for p6608f

Hello, my Pavilion p6608f came with 4 GB of RAM. I want to upgrade. By HP features, the motherboard is a MSI ms-7613 and it should support up to 16 GB of RAM (4 x 4 GB DIMMS). I bought 4 DIMM which seem to fit specifications, but the computer wouldn't POST after installation. I tried reseating the DIMMs, but no luck. My hypothesis is that the memory is not compatible.  I'm unable to find good information on the compatible memory for this computer on the site of Kingston, MSI site, or the site of HP. (Any ideas on one) why the memory I bought is not compatible and b) how to find compatible memory?

Thank you.

Saw that Crucial guarantees their recommendations, I'd go with it.  You may contact their Customer Service to see what they have to say if you are still skeptical.  I have recommended Crucial memory for years without reports of incorrect memory being received.

  • help upgrade memory for laptop

    I'm trying to understand the amount of memory can handle my notebook?

    I have a small plus (2009) laptop HP Pavilion entertainment dv4t-1400, I originally bought for writing. He came with, and currently, 4 gigb of memory.

    is the product number: LV 244AV

    Whenever I go to one of the recommended sites to check the upgrade memory, I don't see my model in the list, so I don't know if this means that his already maxed out at 4 or not?

    I want maximum memory for more speed for now and its too slow, I installed PhotoShop CS6.

    Thanks for any assistance, Lily Marie

  • Question about the upgrade memory for my Satellite M40-307

    Sorry for the newbie question. But if I have 512 MB of memory for the time being, what are my upgrade options?

    Do I have to buy pairs of memory? So I can or buy 2 x 1 GB = 2 GB, or 2 x 512 MB = 1 GB + 512 existing. Or can I say just buy a single 512 MB or 1 GB chip?

    Since no one wants to answer:
    1. check if your laptop supports Dual Channel Ram (it should be, but just see the manual to be sure)
    2. knowledge of what type of RAM you have. This will add or remove a possibility of upgrade

    The thing with Dual Channel is, that you have the best performance if you use 2 RAM of the same type (really of the same type: company, size...)
    you could:
    3. Add a 512 MB of RAM of the same type you have
    3 b. buy 2 pieces of new RAM of the same type (1 GB + 1 GB, or 2 + 2 GB) and do not forget that your laptop supports this quantity (once again: manual to check)

    You will also find in the manual, if your computer supports DDR or same DDR2 RAM (faster)

    If you have lost your manual, you can download it here on the toshiba Web page

    I hope I could help a little.

  • Upgrade memory for Tecra A5

    Hello, if anyone can help, I would be very grateful.

    I have a Tecra A5 that I bought a few years ago and recently it has become quite slow. On the suggestion of a colleague, I rebooted the machine, remove a lot of unused programs and it seems to have improved.

    However, I would like to upgrade the RAM. Currently, the task manager tells me I have 1 GB of available, and I read that the Tecra A5 can handle 2 GB, which seems likely to boost performance.

    However, looking at the manual and at the bottom of the laptop, it only seems to be a slot to expand memory. Looking at websites selling RAM upgrades, there only seems to be 128, 256, 512 and 1024 MB memory upgrades.

    Here's the question. Should I buy two memory upgrades 1 GB (and if so, where did I put the other?)

    I have a feeling that when I bought the laptop, the seller has provided two upgrades memory of 512 MB.

    Thanks for any advice on this.

    You are right. Your Tecra can be upgraded up to 2 GB. Compatible RAM module has PA3313U-2M1G part number. Are you a location is available downstairs?
    This old Tecra is unknown to me, but what I do know, is that all laptops with a RAM slot at the bottom have an another slot memory under the keyboard.

    If you want to have full access to this slot machine, you must remove the keyboard.

  • upgrade memory for envy quad 15 t-j100

    I'm lookin to upgrade the memory of my laptop and apologies if this has already been resolved, I tried to look through the forum.  I have an Envy 15 t-j100 Quad with the 4700mq processor.  The vehicle currently has a single 8 GB 1600 mhz, cl11, 1.35v sitck.  I thought to upgrade to 16 gb 1866 MHz cl10, 1.35v.  Here is a link  That, or 16 GB 1600 mhz cl9, 1.135v.  The 2nd link

    My main question is: this upgrade would be compatible?

    It would be the first time that I am trying to upgrade the memory and never changed anything about it either in the bios before (just learned about xmp profiles the other day).  It is my understanding that the bios are locked anyway to prevent any form of manipulation of xmp.  Would it cause problems if mhz or case values are different from the memory of the stock?  And which expect the extent of performance without being able to access the xmp profile settings?

    Thank you, and other suggestions are very appreciated.

    Auto-detect and configure the BIOS but within the limits of the system. Yes, you're understanding just what I say. Even if you put the faster memory or lower latency, if it works at all downclock motherboard will it. What you put in, install identical modules. You will get on a 10% increase the speed of im with dual channel memory and you have only two channels if you have 2 identical bars. So if you add another gig DDR3-1600 8 SO-DIMM you will speed up memory and more access to get more memory for multitasking, etc.. This is the page for Kingston:

    You have an SSD drive? I see that the system can come with a 5400 RPM or hybrid disk 5400 RPM and that is where the bottleneck. If you install an SSD you will think that you have upgraded the CPU and memory and died and ascended to heaven. If you need help with this post back. It is not cheap but you looked already expensive memory.

    I want to update my RAM and buy some online.
    one) should I buy a similar 2 GB RAM PC2 - 5300 for my system performance, running Windows XP 32-bit? If so, should I buy Lenovo RAM only, for the maintenance of my 3 years warranty intact?

    Will assume the ROM ThinkPad and Lenovo ThinkPad and Lenovo warranty portable systems limited

    (b) what are the alternatives best for good quality, reliable laptop computer memory, not to mention that Lenovo?
    (c) wouldn't it be better if I'm able to buy RAM that can match my FSB? This will have a performance advantage? Do these similar exist FSB RAM speed?
    Please suggest manufacturers of memory superior, as appropriate.

    Honestly, you'll be fine with either / or. I've not had a bad experience with Samsung never, if I had to choose I'd give it a very slight preference based on prior use.

    I doubt that you (or me) would be able to tell the difference between two identical machines, execution of memory with different CLs...

    I hope this helps.
