Pavilion P7 - 1003w Win 7 sp1 - RAM problems...

I have a Pavilion P7-1003w running Windows 7 sp1.  I have 2 strips of 4 GB of RAM installed, which should show that 8 GB under Windows Properties.  Instead it shows 16 GB (7.75 exploitable).  I tried to remove 1 stick and leaving 1 installed, the results show 12 (3.75 usable) GB.  I tried each stick individually in each of the 2 available DIMM slots and each time I get the same results.

Why is this, and can it be fixed?  Or maybe it's bad advice?  Any suggestions are appreciated.

  • Tecra M3 Win 2003 Server driver problems

    I just (this morning) put his hand on my new Tecra M3. I installed Win Server 2003 and problems with some drivers. With the lack of drivers 2003, I downloaded all the drivers XP and have been installing them without any problem, except the following:

    Toshiba Configfree, DVD RAM, Mic effect, Extensions, Mobile, Wireless Hotkey and Intel Wireless LAN a / b and b driver Intel Wireless LAN a / g driver.

    These all come with an error something like 'not supported on this operating system.

    I also have a PCI device that cannot be identified - (yellow? in Device Manager).

    Finally, I get a windows script host error when I boot - program Toshiba Toshiba management Console\toshealthlocals.vbs, line 31, 1 tank, found 80041002 Code, Source SwbemService *.

    If someone could shed light on the lack of drivers for 2003, or suggest a way around it and also a solution to the management console fuse, I would be very grateful!

    Hello

    Tok is fair, but you should notice that Toshiba don t sell laptops with a Win Server 2003 OS and there is no official support for this. Sorry, but in my opinion, that it won't be easy to make it work properly.

  • Intel Centrino Advanced - N 6205 WLAN causing blue screen (BSOD) on Elitebook 8570w Win 7 SP1 64 bit

    Hello world

    In recent months, I use a 8570w Elitebook.

    I can't tell you when the problem started, but as soon as I unplug the notebook from the power supply and WLAN is enabled, I get a blue screen after a while. Sometimes, but not this oftehn, I encounter this problem even when the laptop is connected to the power and WLAN is enabled.

    I could not determine when exactly this blue screen, but it's certainly the WLAN (Bluetooth is disabled in the BIOS for the moment). It happens most of the time when I'm under two or more virtual machines with VMWare Workstation (version 9.0.2).

    The WIFI card is an Intel Centrino Advanced - N 6205. I tried several drivers (mid-2012 at the latest in April 2013) with a complete uninstall of the previous drivers. Without success. Operating system is Win 7 SP1 64 bit.

    Google helped me a bit and I found an Intel forum where people are describing almost the same problem with these Intel WLAN modules.

    Checked the Knowledge Base of HP and I am just find more messages do not deal with the new modules.

    Should I consider replacing the WLAN (guarantee) card? Someone knows the same issue and was able to find a solution/workaround?

    All opinions are appreciated.

    Thank you
    Jerry

    Hello world

    Finally, I have launched the Intel WLAN module and replaced by a Broadcom module (HP spare part number: 669832-001, Broadcom model: BCM943228HM4L) with the driver version: 6.30.223.228 (05.02.2014).

    This solved my problem of blue screen. Intel (same as last) drivers do not work with the configuration I have on my Elitebook 8570w and I gave up to find an another software/driver associated solution. In recent weeks, I can run multiple virtual machines in VMWare (9.0.4) without problems.

    Hope this information is of help to anyone who is struggeling with the Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 WLAN module.

    Cheers, Jerry

    Hello

    What follows is certainly not what you wanted to hear, but it is frank and honest.

    There is no support for Windows 7 on your laptop. If you were able to get to the top and running, so you were lucky.

    The only provided HP drivers and applications that are available for your laptop are for Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Vista.

    You can try to install the Coolsense driver in compatibility mode, but there is absolutely no guarantee that it will work.

    Just as it says on the download page of Coolsense, "this feature is available on mobile phones supported running a supported operating system." Unfortunately, your laptop is not grave in either categeory.

    Best regards

    If you cannot connect to the internet, please post the hardware ID's for Ethernet controller and network controller.

    I will guide you how to find the hardware for the network controller ID, and if you want, you can post the hardware ID's for all the missing devices, and I'll see what I can find.

    Go to Device Manager and click on the network controller needing drivers.

    Then click on the Details tab at the top of the control of the network window.

    Now, you see a drop-down list of property and it is set by default to the Description of the unit.

    Drop down on it and select the second item in the list (Hardware ID).

  • Cannot switch to Win 7 SP1

    I have a HP Slimline s5670t. When I recently tried upgrading to Explorer 11, the installer told me that I have Win 7 SP1. The computer came with Win 7, but not SP1. I did my utmost to update and install SP1 only to find out that it will not be installed because I need a newer version of the graphics driver intell (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2505743). Well it turns out that intel is unable to update the graphics driver on my hp because hp installed their own version of the innovative of it. I checked the hp driver updates intel graphics on their website and there is not a more recent available. So without an updated graphics driver intel HP, I can't upgrade Win 7 SP1.

    What I've read, SP1 fixed a number of security issues. So now it seems that I'm stuck with a computer that is not secure. You think that I should give her medicine for anxiety?

    Seriously, all the suggestions and help is appreciated.

    Thank you

    Doug

    More like hit a dead-end.

    Thanks Big Dave! This more or less worked, although I have not exactly follow your directions.

    I started with a factory reinstall and reinstalled the chipset intel and graphics drivers intel as you suggest. The only thing that I do not have to uninstall the graphics driver intel because I was afraid of not being able to see anything! Then, I did all the updates of Windows.

    After the adjournment, I reinstalled the original intel chipset and drivers graphic once more, to make sure.

    One thing I should mention is that SP1 has never as a possible update by using Windows Update. I guess it's smart enough to not to suggest a undate which cannot not be installed.

    I also found a page of windows support thereon (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2498452) and took his suggestion (method 4) to install an update for the graphics platform (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2028560).

    Because the SP1 is not an option under Windows Update, I downloaded and installed separately, and it installed! As a result, it's about 60 updates, and now I'm good to go!

    Thanks again! I would have given up without your help.

    See you soon,.
