ProBook 6440 b: RAM upgrade Question

Help! I just bought a refurb Probook 6440 b. Only, it came with 2 GB of memory, so I bought an upgrade to 8 GB. However, I can't find any instruction DECENT on the replacement of the RAM. Is there something there?

  • ProBook 440 G2: RAM Upgrade will void the warranty?

    Hello

    After a lot of dilemma, I buy THISlaptop.

    My main concern is the "on-site 5-year guarantee" it comes with.

    This laptop has now only 4 GB of RAM. I want to add an another 4 GB myself.

    In doing so, it will take Bay opening to service the laptop.

    Open myself for a RAM upgrade will void the warranty?

    In addition, no one knows how much total RAM this computer supports? How many slots is there?

    The page of the product didn't.

    I tried to contact HP technical support by email, and I have to enter a serial number to reach them. I entered the serial number of my laptop current (and also a probook), but I think that the agent did not read my email properly. Instead of answering my question, he sent me a link to extend the warranty on my laptop today.

    Thank you...

    Hello

    According to the Manual, it has 2 slots:

    See Page 2, 3, 47, 48, to get the instructions before and during the replacement process. Even if it is a simple procedure if you do not have confidence in replacement, it gives to the HP service center, they will do it for you. Opening the door to service memory will not void the warranty - but if you daamage something in the replacement process, it will void the warranty.

    Please get the exact configuration and preference of the same brand (like this one in the slot) of RAM, mentioned in the manual.

    You can run this toolto know the details of the installed RAM sticks & moving forward with the purchase of od sizes appropriate sticks needed to make it to 8 GB in total.

    Hello:

    I suggest that install you the upgrade from the DVD (authoring tool of your own from the link below - media Make).

    The DVD will bypass the hardware checks.

    Also, when you install W10 from the disk, skip verification of updates when you are prompted.

    I can upgradeed 4 g or not? or only 2048 max.

    Hello

    If the manual indicates that only 2 GB are possible then you can move the RAM only to 2 GB (2 x 1 GB module)

    I thing the laptop supports the Intel 915 PM chipset and it supports 2 GB of RAM.

  • HP Probook b 6450 memory upgrade question

    Hi all

    I seem to have a strange question seeks to upgrade the memory in a HP 6450 b probook (i5 - 480 m & ATI card). The laptop came with 2 GB of sps p/n 598856-002, which is ram 1333 mhz 1.5V with the manufacturer being ramaxel. I ordered and installed a few sticks of kingston 4 GB

    http://h30094.www3.HP.com/product/SKU/10473659/mfg_partno/KTH-X3BS/4G

    Mounted to them and all appeared to be as well as the operating system (win 7 32 bit pro) showed the recognized as 8 GB stick and 3 GB usable, the bios also reported 8 GB as well. However the moment that a 64 bit OS (Linux or Windows) is tempted to run just the laptop falls down or crashes

    I already tried this upgrade with two sticks of crucial memory but had exactly the same problem, so think about crucial memory was the question I put to the supplier and ordered the kingstons rather.

    I saw very similar question mentioned here:

    http://www.TomsHardware.co.UK/Forum/328016-30-memory-upgrade-ProBook

    and

    http://superuser.com/questions/580512/HP-ProBook-6450b-not-booting-after-memory-upgrade

    My instinct suggests this notebook can be very picky about the memory chips, it may have to be a 4 GB key 16 chip versus chip 8 4 GB sticks.

    Thoughts and help on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    You are the very welcome.

    Yes, I have never, ever install any module of memory in my notebooks from HP that does not 16 chips.

    All the chips I use - 2 gigs and up, have 16 chips (8 on each side).

    Never had a problem.

  • HP 15-AC053TX: 15-AC053TX of HP linux dual boot and RAM upgrade question

    Hello

    I want to buy HP laptop computer 15-AC053TX for VMS running on the science of data/data. I have the following questions

    (1) will require computer support dual-boot Linux OS like Ubuntu and CentOS 64-bit?

    (2) can I upgrade RAM 16 GB? Can I pre-order with a configuration upgrade or should I upgrade later through Service to the HP customer care?

    All entries will be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Bazelaire

    It has 8 gigs in a single module, so all you have to do is add another module of 8 GB to 16. This particular model is a specific configuration and HP do not at this level off the coast of this issue of model, but you can order the same thing as a custom to order and get 16 gigs. If not upgrade memory isn't too hard on that one, and the upgrade, it'll be cheaper.

    See p. 46 here:

    Repair manuals

    Manual specifications say it tops out at 8 gigs, but this has been proven incorrect and tackling the 16 concerts if you put two x 8 concert DDR3L-1600 modules.

    Yes, you can dual boot a modern Linux distribution. Ubuntu 64 bit 15.04 and 15.10 will work off UEFI and Secure Boot for example and allow you to install right next to Windows 10 using the grub bootloader to choose your operating system at startup.

  • Pavilion dv7-2050sm: SSD and RAM upgrade questions

    Hello

    I have two question about upgrading my laptop. I use it for web surfing, movies, some excellent/word work etc... for the most part on a regular basis.

    (1) I have seen that my RAM can be upgraded to 8 GB. Currently, I am working at 1333 MHz 4RAM. If I buy 2 x 4 GB 1600 MHz will it work on this laptop, I went into the BIOS and have not seen that I can change the speed of ram anywhere nor has seen how much can this support for portable computers, so should I buy 1x4Go 1333 MHz instead if it only supports 1600 MHz.

    (2) can I put my disk HARD 700 GB Seagate 5400 RPM SATA II 3.0 Gbps with Samsung 850EVO 250 GB SSD? I know that SATA III drives are retro-compatible meaning can work on SATA II but is it useful, how much speed will I use if my laptop does not support SATA III.

    Laptop computer product number: B4E42EA

    Chipset: AMD A70M FCH

    CPU: Improved A6 4460 M to 4600 M A10

    Thank you!

    It will not run at 1600 mhz just so buy another 4 GB of DDR3-1333 memory. The SSD is the best upgrade you can do. Certainly worth. SSD SATA-III will work fine on a SATA-II bus. There is very little difference in actual operation.

  • HP Pavilion g6-2249wm Notebook: RAM upgrade question

    When I ordered my laptop a few years, there is, it came with 4 GB of RAM standard, but you could spend up to a maximum of 8 GB to 6 GB. I bought it with 6 GB. I want to move to 8 GB, and I know there are 2 RAM slots in the laptop. My question is, did they use a 6 GB stick in one of the slots or the fact that they use a 4 gb one and one 2g in the other? Im hoping to get a response, so I don't have to open it up and look for myself. I don't know if I should order a 2 GB or 4 GB a stick to get up to 8 GB.  That being said, someone knows if HP would be put in a 6 GB stick or run a 4 GB and 2 GB as a whole? IM assuming they put in a single 6 GB and I just need to buy a upgrade 2bg. Thank you

    Moreover, it would go better if I just replaced it and got a bar of 8 GB of RAM?

    I can tell without looking or read whatever it is, that it isn't just a 6 gig of memory because those who are not 'a thing' as the kids say. You can actually get a software called Belarc Advisor to do the dirty work and interrogate the locations of memory and tell you what is in it or them.

    http://www.Belarc.com/free_download.html

    But since there is no 6 concert sticks; only 2, 4 and 8, we know that you have a 2 gig and a 4 GB and you can mix the 2 and add a 4.

    The laptop will not support 8 modules of concert and it will work better with 2 of the same size due to something called mode memory dual channel which is only used when you have two identical modules. So yes, you need to duplicate the existing 4 GB module for a total of 8 and you will see a modest but noticeable improvement in speed.

  • HP Probook s 4710 Ram upgrade

    Hello I have a proobook Hp s 4710 with win7 ultimate 64 bit and I want to upgrade my Ram.

    Currently, according to CPU - z I 2 GB 800 MHz. By searching hp.com and the net I discovered that some 4710 s take other ddr3 and ddr2.

    So I chated with an HP expert 2 weeks ago and he said that my laptop run maximum 8 GB at 1333. And I went bought 2x2gb 1333...

    When I tried to install that I fell on a DDR2 socket! Obviously, the ddr3 was not appropriate in this medium.

    So my question is---> what is happening? Everywhere I look on the Net some say DDR2 and DDR3 of others. How is that possible? The laptop has other modules Drr3 media I did not find?

    My S/N {retired privacy} and P/n is NX629EA #AKD

    Please help because I'm depserate!

    Hello

    Thank you very much for the link, I don't really know what is happening here also. It says on page #3 DDR2 but on another page (s) he says DDR3. The manual also shows DDR2 as in my previous post and you have discovered it only supports DDR2. Maybe more later models supported DDR3. Anyway, back to your question, I know Crucial RAM works but don't know others. I'm sorry.

    Kind regards.

  • m8120n Media Center PC RAM upgrade questions - help please!

    I have an HP m8120n 2 year old PC. It has 3 GB RAM PC5300 inside stock. I want to upgrade the ram, with 6 or 8 GB. Here are the 2 questions I have:

    (1) this motherboard is supposed to handle 8 GB (4x2Go). It will get by the BIOS?

    (2) this motherboard is supposed to be able to handle up to PC64000 (DDR2 800) RAM. I can use it or do I have to stick to the PC5300 accompanying?

    I understand that if I go to 6 GB, I leave 2 GB of RAM stock in it and you need to use the PC5300. I would prefer 8 GB and the PC6400. And Yes, I run Vista 64.

    Thanks in advance!

  • Lenovo x220t ram upgrade questions

    I am looking for the x220t but I got a questions about upgrading ram. I'm not very knowledge when it comes to changes to the computer, but I would like to know if one of these Rams from spare 4 GB would fit in the x220t.

    Also, for later use, I would like to know how to know if an Aries will work. Is there some numbers that must match (literally I don't know anything, but the figures look like)?

    Thank you

    Go with the first link. His brand lenovo RAM. When you buy RAM, you want to get the last type (i.e. the norm these days), which I think is DDR3 right now. DDR3 is simply the interface type. In addition, you must consider which will support your motherboard, and you find this out by looking at the specs of your motherboard. It will tell you all the ports and what type of everything what you can fit there.

    The maximum amount of RAM has to do with your operating system (OS). The limits of each version of Windows, you can wikipedia. In fact, wikipedia EVERYTHING and you will learn.

    The reason why I told you to buy the first RAM in the link is because you want all your RAM are the same to be more effective. I don't really know the details, but just to get the same RAM (brand, latency, type, no matter). As a casual PC user, you don't really need to worry about what anyone else. Just make sure the RAM on the motherboard of the computer desk or in your laptop and if you buy more RAM, try to be the same. Although it is not that serious.

    BTW, I bought RAM myself for my 220 t make my Tablet have 8 GB, (which is the maximum that can support this thing) and it works like a charm.

    I hope this helps. Building, fixing, modding and the upgrade of PC is all about trial and error. And once again, wikipedia everything. If you have a problem with a PC, try it on google and go on forums because people generally have the same problems. That's how you learn.
