RAM upgrade compaq presario c700

Hi, I have a compaq presario c700 runing on vista Home premium. It has only 1 GB of ram installed so I tried to move to 3 GB of ram, all I get is a blue screen saying there is Aproblem, I tried to install a new operating system, but it won't let me?

When I put the original ram and it works fine. I have an another compaq and swapped the ram and hd on I had then nothing? The system works with the pre-installed ram, "HELP."

2 GB is the maximum:

    Hello

    Please answer suite

    1. how to get the maximum for components upgrades

    CPU / SODIMM given the configuration of the model Compaq Presario C797EE mentioned at the end.

    2. Why is there BIOS ver F.35 for Presario C700 when later offered is the worm F.34 bios on HP web. What is the difference. Where can I find both to be uploaded with the release notes. New BIOS on model C797EE allows processors support Intel Core 2 Duo X 9000 and PC6400 SODIMM for 8 GB?

    3. There is evidence of success update here. Only difference is its Compaq Presario C797EE but C771US not and was able to upgrade CPU Core 2 Duo T9300. Is it possible to upgrade series C700 (C797EE) to Intel C2d Extreme X 9000 processor. If this is not the case, what is the max for the chip set used in C797EE.

    4 NT are different for Intel T9300 and others by 35W 44W or any other factor, will they perform the upgrade, if yes then please provide last possible list compatible CPU my current chip-set

    Comparative analysis of the applications here are showing different results. Please see Sandra chipset readings compare to the results of CPU - Z.

    Hello, just let everyone know that my upgrade worked.

    -Processor

    Updated for intel T9300 as reference. probably could support the x 9000, but it was much more expensive is not a value

    -Memory:

    I was skeptical with past more than 4 GB, however, currently functioning 6 GB (2 X 4). foung are not accidents of errors due to modules. Works perfectly.

    . After these updates, I installed small SSD, which added to the startup that gave more boost to the system.

    . Replaced the DVD with Caddy drive through visruth, installed with 1 TB

    . Replaced with 12 cells battery

    Conclusion:

    This unit of 8 years demonstrated startup, transformation and loading speeds that could be compared to couple of old machines, 6 GB working memory space that can accommodate witout heavy programs using the file (actually disabled) Exchange and on the storage of Tera bytes to store every necessary thing making the year becomes mordern General phone use. Only thing that is not dealing with it is the graphics card. Besides that all is well, infact it runs more more fees than before.

  • Compaq Presario C700 CTO - blue screen drivers/events/mode RAID or AHCI?

    Hello

    I need to know if my PC Compaq Presario C700 CTO Notebook is running in RAID or AHCI mode because of problems with a driver Intel Matrix Storage Manager (IMSM).  The Read Me text file in the menu start > all programs > intel Matrix Storage Manager folder said if my system works in RAID or AHCI mode determines if my computer needs this driver.

    For the past month, my computer stops and restarts with a blue screen and message when the desktop appears as a message. (The blue screen does not last long enough to read.)  The message is always the same except one I had yesterday which is described at the end of this post.

    "Windows has stopped unexpectedly. '.  The details are:

    Signature of the problem:
    Problem event name: BlueScreen
    The system version: 6.0.6002.2.2.0.768.3
    Locale ID: 1033

    More information about the problem:

    BCP3: 00000000
    BCP4: 00000000
    OS version: 6_0_6002

    C:\Users\Dawna\AppData\Local\Temp\WERE54F.tmp.version.txt

    A solution:

    Problem with the Intel IMSM driver.

    Intel IMSM driver has stopped working properly.

    Press or click on to download the update on the site of ASUS computer.

    I several times installed upgrading after the blue screen event ever.  The download is an application called V8.9.2.1002_logo_Win7Vista3264.exe.

    The Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver is not in the list of devices in Device Manager > show hidden devices.  I found information on the HP site indicating how do I know if my computer has the driver, because I thought that maybe it has not been installed correctly.  I found the Intel Matrix Storage Manager program folder in the start menu > new programs.  I can't know what version it is.  Reading tells Me to text file in the folder to open the Device Manager and search for specific controllers SATA RAID and SATA AHCI controllers.  If not in the list then it appears that my OS is not running in two modes.  I can't find these devices in the list, but the Read Me text file advises me to contact the manufacturer in case of doubt.  My warranty has expired, so I'm here asking for help.

    When I use the HP product detection analysis to try to automatically scan for driver updates, it reads my product incorrectly.   Running the tool has sometimes followed by a crash and blue screen.

    I do not remember the changes that I made at the time when the events of the blue screen started to happen.  There was an event yesterday blue screen and the message on the desk said a problem with the HP Recovery Manager and backup.   He advised me to install an update from the HP website.  The link did not open so I downloaded the version 4.0.100.1189sp39296.exe of HP update.  I've also updated my graphics driver.

    I would be grateful if someone could help me solve this problem.   I'm worried about damaging my computer.

    Hello:

    First of all your needs from laptop to have the hardware (CPU and chipset) Intel to run the Intel Matrix Storage Manager.

    Your C700 CTO may have either hardware Intel or an AMD/Nvidia chipset so I can't tell you what your laptop has.

    You can tell however, and you can tell what mode of the controller to your PC is currently running (AHCI or RAID).

    If you have PC, go into the Device Manager and if you have a category of an ATA/ATAPI IDE controller based on an Intel processor, click to expand that and if your laptop is running in AHCI mode, the controller will have the AHCI word in the description of the controller.

    If your mobile phone is set to RAID (which I doubt), scroll down further on the Device Manager list, and there would be a category of storage controllers if the command is set to RAID.

    Click to expand, and you would see a description of disk with the word inside RAID controller.

  • Windows 8 can be installed on a laptop Compaq Presario C700 of 2007?

In recent years, my computer became very slow and I was wondering if upgrading to the system of Windows 8 might improve performance on my computer. It would be even possible to upgrade to Windows 8 on my current system? Or my computer is too old? Thank you!!

    Generally, you meet the minimum requirements for the installation of W8;

    Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster

    RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)

    • To access the Windows store and download and run applications, you need to an active Internet connection and a resolution of at least 1024 x 768 screen.

    • To align the apps, you need at least 1366 x 768 screen resolution.

    • Internet access (ISP could additionally)

    Your may of screen resolution problem.

    Also you can have problems with drivers for various devices, being compatible with the W8.

  • Compaq presario C700 (C750EL): SSD info and motherboard

    I have a C750EL with T8100 processor and 3 GB of RAM, BIOS F.35

    I would like to know if it is possible to install a SSD HDD into the WiFi slot (mini PCIe, right?)

    my intention is to put a SSD quick 32-64 GB with operating system to boot from instead of internal WiFi and maintain my 250 GB SATA HD for data.

    someone has the manual of the motherboard with features complete? (not the simple maintenance manual)

    I can't find any doc on this mobo from 30 9 HP...

    I would like to install also the internal camera... any info?

    Thanks to all you guys

    The SSD into the slot wireless cannot be done. The slot is solely for a wireless card only. Even if an SSD in this location would be "mount" (it will not) it will not be bootable.

    HP does not have a manual of the complete motherboard available. The best thing that it would be maintenance and Service of Guide.

    Your only way to add an SSD is the 2.5 inch SATA variety, and you could put a second hard drive in an optical bay adapter. I think that your optical drive is mini-IDE but if it is not the fastest thing, probably ATA-33.

  • Compaq Presario C700 video card

    I have a Compaq Presario C700 computer laptop (C769US) and I was wondering if I would be able to upgrade the video card to play Fallout 3, that I bought yesterday. The card that is here right now is 'Intel 965 Chipset family' or something of the kind.

    I would like to put this here: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8761878&type=product&id=1202650704648

    It will go? My father said something about PCI and AGP, I don't know how to find out if mine is PCI.

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    -Chris

    If you put beside the video card laptop I think that you see that there is no way to put it there. The video card is almost as large as the laptop. We receive a few tons of these posts here these days. But the answer has not changed. There is no upgrade for your video that is remotely possible in this life on this planet. Cannot be done, no cases in any way. The video is a chip that is soldered to the motherboard with the set traces to work only with this specific chip. Even the best ubertech with mad fine welding skills could not do anything else's work. When you buy a laptop get the graph and the processor you want and need for now and the future. If you need something better it means a new laptop not a level 98% of the time. When you buy a game controls the minimum requirements and see if your computer can meet.

    Sorry if I sound a little harsh but as I said we get 2 or 3 of these questions every day and I blame the computer manufacturers (HP, for example) and retailers such as Best Buy for not educating the public about what they are buying.

  • Compaq Presario C700 stops frequently

    I have Compaq Presario C700. There: 1.73 GHz Pentium Dual-Core Mobile Processor T2370, up to 2 GB DDR2,

    Recently, I noticed that the laptop stops frequently when I'm listening to music, watching movies, or sometimes when you work. I did some research on the problem and I found that most people say find the manual on COMPAQ.com and watch the plug in order to open the laptop, then spray/clean fans / or heating of the parts. Is it the right thing to do.

    Several times a laptop overheating is directly related to the cooling of the processor. The main culprit is the fan. The fan draws in air from the bottom and it blows on the side. It will also suck in the hair, dust and other debris. Often this kind of thing is trapped by the heat sink and the wire time accumulates in a layer that stifles the cool air, go to the processor, making the fan to redouble their efforts.

    Read this:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01657439

    What I recommend is to take a canned air and blow out vents in the side and the underside of the laptop. If after that you still have overheating problems and your laptop is under warranty, you can take your laptop to an authorized Service Center HP and ask them to clean the fan and the heat sink. You can check your warranty here:

    http://www13.itrc.HP.com/service/ewarranty/warrantyResults.do?admit=109447627+1286541891570+28353475

    If it is out of warranty, consider looking for the service manual for your specific model, in the manual it is patterns to disassemble the laptop. It is much easier that remove a motherboard, so don't feel intimidated by the idea of clean the fan. Also you can remove the heat sink and then remove the thermal grease and apply a new layer, which also helps reduce heat related issues.
