Question ram W520

I'm specing on a W520 and wonder how many ram slots a W520 comes with, and if it varies depending on the configuration that you select during customization, it.

Quad core CPU models have four locations working SoDIMM. The Dual Core CPU models have four slots, but two are disabled. The W520 support 32 GB when completely filled with 8 GB SODIMM.

You can now buy two 8 GB SODIMM for around $100 USD.

  • Satellite P200 - question RAM upgrade

    Hi all

    I'm looking for some RAM for a Satellite P200, although I can't find it on any list of compatibility.

    I'm hoping to get two 2 GB of RAM DDR2 880.
    Can you help me please.

    The RAM will be downrated to a slower speed in the Toshiba or the 880 works perfectly?

    Thanks for your time.

    Hello

    > RAM will be downrated to a slower speed in the Toshiba or the 880 works perfectly

    Sorry, but I don t know what you mean by 880. Do you mean the module 880 Mhz DDR2?

    There are different models of Satellite P200, but generally you can use DDR2 667 MHz (PC2-5300) 200 - PIN SODIMM barrettes

    Compatible module runs at 667 Mhz.

  • Question RAM ThinkPad X 201

    Hello, thanks for reading.  I just bought an x 201 (Type 3680, I5 processor, 4 GB RAM, 320 GB HD, Windows 7 32 bit).  I noticed that the available memory is only show 2.92 GB, while the installed real memory shows 4 GB.  I did not have any way to remap the memory in the BIOS, and I can't find any way to increase the available RAM.  I finally run some heavy programs on the x 201, and I was planning to move to 8 GB of RAM.  However, I don't know if the processor or the computer is suitable for a larger amount of memory than the 2.92 listed as available.  Advice/suggestions would be appreciated.  Thank you!

    32-bit windows has a limitation of ~3.3GB. If adds that little memory is used for onboard video; you end up with what you have.

    You should have ordered it with the 64 bit version of Windows.

    Contact Lenovo, maybe they can send you a set of recovery disks for Win7 64 bit for a small fee.

  • Question RAM ThinkPad X 230

    Hi Lenovo community,

    I'm looking to upgrade the RAM in my X 230, but I was unable to find detailed information on the size of RAM (PIN) in the laptop. I looked at the model number of the RAM in the original Samsung laptop and found on Amazon, where it is listed as having 204 pins.

    Is this the right size that I should look for when buying new RAM for this machine?

    Thank you!

    204 pin ddr3 sodimm is the type of ram you use in your machine.

  • EliteBook 8440p: problems of Expansion RAM HP 8440p

    I recently decided to upgrade the memory on my EliteBook 8440p. After reading the form of RAM required, I bought one of these: http://www.ebuyer.com/737970-kingston-4gb-1333mhz-204-pin-cl9-ddr3-sodimm-non-ecc-unbuffered-1-5v-me...

    Once the new RAM is installed in the expansion slot, Windows will not start and crashes just on screen "starting Windows." Then I tried a test of memory using the system BIOS diagnostic tool, but the laptop either hangs around 35% (I left it there for about two hours), restarts, or stops altogether. I thought that I would give to the system try, repair tool but which caused also just the laptop restart. Curiously, when I check the "System information" tab the system diagnostics, the two RAM sticks are detected with current and accurate information.

    I contacted eBuyer, they sent a replacement out there, but I'm having the same problem again. So, I thought I would try to install new RAM in the internal slot instead (under the keyboard), but now I have a BSOD during the 'Starting Windows' screen, give me code error, "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"

    I read on some forums tech upward. One of them suggested runs what is called 'Memtest' at startup via the CD, I tried, but the laptop restarts only during the first passage of the test of memory (and of course some loops over and over again until I remove the CD).

    I'm starting to lose hope! Any help/advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello:

    See this related post.  You must use a very specific memory in this model, or it won't work.

  • EliteBook 8440p; DM1-3020us: 2x4gb 1600 MHz DDR3L works in Pavilion DM1 but not Elitebook 8440p? But both are supported than 1066 MHz RAM

    I have two Elitebook 8440p PCs that both run an Intel i5 520 m (although one of them has a discreet Nvidia NVS 3100 m, while the other does not and use the integrated graphics card Intel).

    I also have a Pavilion DM1-3020us with an AMD E-350 APU; It's the only other PC I own which takes SO-DIMM DDR3 modules.

    I just bought this Crucial DDR3L 1600 MHz 2x4gb hoping to use it with the 8440p without the graphics from Nvidia:

    http://www.BestBuy.com/site/crucial-2-Pack-4GB-1-6GHz-PC3-12800-DDR3L-so-DIMM-Unbuffered-non-ECC-lap...

    However, it causes crashes and BSOD as soon as he tried to start under Win7 64 bit on both 8440 p PCs.  Also when trying to boot Linux Mint 18 I empty a kernel panic, and run Memtest86 + just leads to restarting the PC within seconds.  Yet, I can navigate through the BIOS throughout the day and it will continue to work very well...

    But here's where it gets really weird - the RAM works perfectly fine in my laptop DM1 Memtest86 + and Win7 64 bit (I use it as I type this).  What's curious?  Because both the AMD E-350 and the Intel i5 520 m only support up to 1066 MHz RAM!

    The only thing I can think is that there is something wacky where RAM is unable to operate at 1066 MHz at 1.5V or is not able to run at 1.5V to all E-350 1.35v support (and 1.5V RAM so that the i5 520 m only supports 1.5V) which itself would be really strange that Micron (which actually manufactured the RAM) States on their website that their 1.35v and 1.5V RAM have actually the same die (a bit like mobile i7s quad vs quad I5S Office) and that both can operate at 1, 5V, implying therefore that the 1.35v product is simply a higher binning:

    https://www.micron.com/~/Media/documents/products/technical-note/DRAM/tn4114_ddr3_1_35v_1_5v_compat...

    Crucial live chat support, however, closed several hours for the day, so I thought I would at least make this post in the meantime.

    Hello:

    Please see this thread, and the discussion that I posted in this thread... and you'll have your answer.

    6550 b has the same chipset as the 8440p.  I posted the link to the site from NewEgg for the memory, you need to buy if you live in the USA/Canada in the discussion that I've referenced to the other person who had the 8440p.

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-hardware-and-upgrade-questions/RAM-memory-modules-that-actually-work-for-HP-EliteBook-8440p/m-p/5570634#M335108

    There are several discussions on this issue if you want to find even more.  Everything is solved by specific G.Skill memory I posted.

    The extent of why it works in the dm1 and not the 8440p, the chipsets are different.  The Intel chipset in the 8440p doesn't support voltage DDR3L.  Comparison of AMD and Intel chipsets are like comparing apples and oranges.

    I also believe that the chipset amd in the dm1 is more recent than the chipset in the 8440p and promotes low-voltage memory.

    I have just return from memory and use the gift card on something else.

    I doubt that Best Buy has this specific memory.

  • EliteBook 8440p: EliteBook 8440p has no RAM 8 GB upgrade

    I have EliteBook 8440p with i7 M620, 4 GB of RAM and WIndows 7 64 bit installed.

    I wanted to update my RAM 8 GB as suggested here and bought 2 x 4 GB RAM of:

    KINGSTON ValueRAM 4 GB DDR3-1333 (PC3-10600) SDRAM-DDR3 CL9-9-9 204pin 1.5 Volt

    I replaced the 2 GB card at the back of the laptop with the Kingston 4 GB and when I started windows:

    • The BIOS showed 6 GB of RAM
    • But blocked when Windows starts, your stay at the black screen with the "starting Windows" without the points colored forming in a window.

    I tried to restart, but no change.

    No idea which can try to solve this problem, or switch to 8 GB?

    Thank you

    How can I get the license key now and install?

    Help please!
    App in question - Ram Optimizer-pro Advanced

    Hello

    If the application was not the AppWorld, then you must seek assistance from the place, you bought the app. But, if the application was purchased through AppWorld, then I suggest that you clear the cache of the AppWorld application:

    1. open the App World

    2. go to my world

    3. follow one (and only one!) of these steps:

    3. for the BB keyboard-oriented - hold down the ALT key and press on, in the sequence R, then S, then T

    3B. for touch screen only BBs - hold the num-lock (! 123 button) so that it hangs and then press on, in the sequence 3, then 4, then)

    3 c for the most recent (e, g., OS6 and 7) BB s, see this KB:

    • KB24714 How to clear the cache of BlackBerry App World

    4 AppWorld must close.

    5. If your BB locks after issuing clear cache, do a battery pull reboot

    6. return to AppWorld/MyWorld (it can be slow, while it re - sync).

    If (4) stage arrives not as described, then the empty the cache failed.

    The purchased app should now display as uninstalled, and you should be able to install it from there.

  • Tecra M11 - random crashes with Windows 7

    We had a Toshiba Tecra M11 Windows 7 who has a problem in which he randomly falls down, forcing the user to hard it reboot. When it crashes, the fans to the top spin, don't know if that means anything. We tried many things to fix.

    At first, we thought it might be overheating, which would explain the fan, but the laptop has been through a 24-hour stress test absolutely perfect with normal temperatures. The laptop is not necesarrily do something stressful when it fails we also tried reinstalling some of the key drivers and also intalled the BIOS more recent (2.60), but still the same problem.

    It breaks down up to 2 times per day, but can also go a few days without crashing. It's a very strange problem and we would highly appreciate a fix for it.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Maybe it s RAM related question RAM memory may be affected and would force the OS crashing
    I put t know if that would be helpful, but try to test the memory, run the memtest86 utility
    But note; These controls are not always successful means that even the memory is faulty, the error may not be detected by these software

    Have you tried to reinstall the OS?
    This should be done as well.
