T400 with a bar of 8 GB of ram?

Hi all

Has anyone tried to use 1 stick 8 GB of DDR3 memory in a T400? And it does not work?

Why I ask is because I have recently acquired a T400, which unfortunately has a bad RAM slot. I'm looking forward to having a little more margin for VMS, so 8 GB would be really useful. Since one slot is dead, I won't be able to go 2 x 4 GB.

A T400 can go 8 GB max, there is probably a small chance of 1x8GB work. The T400 is a bit old so I thought that RAM manufacturers would not have taken the trouble to test their 8GB sticks to this topic.

Very grateful to anyone with an answer. Thank you!

It does not work. I had a T400 here as I prepared recover software, so I put a 8 gb DIMMS (Corsair Value Select) that runs on a newer model in the machine. There was a 1 - 3-3-1 beep code (no memory) when it has been inserted in each slot. I thought that a later BIOS might help, so I handed over the original memory and updated the BIOS from a CD. The 8GB DIMM still would not work.

    You can run The Apple Hardware Test / Diagnosis of Apple , but each of its possible results will lead to the same result:

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

  • Skype 7.27.80.101 is arch entering video 4:3 with black bars of spruce in the 16:9 monitor

    We use Skype every day and since August, we have noticed that some video entering various contacts appears in 4:3 with black bars on the sides to adapt to our 16:9 screen. The guest who call in all have various devices, we checked, it be PC, Mac mobile laptops, Android and IOS devices. Test, we had the issue with our version of Skype.

    We have 4 identical version Skype windows 7 PC, a PC does not have the problem and the only difference is that he is running Version 7.24, 3 other PC with Skype worm 7.24 all have the problem.

    We think back of role, but it would be good to be able to stay up to date.

    I don't know if there is nothing special in the version 7.27. I have observed this behavior on several versions previous too, but Skype is changing often ('improvement') the bargaining procedure for the 'best connection possible', so anything is possible.

    In all cases, the difference can also be in the applied codec (NGC versus silk), and as far as I know, there is no known way to force the selected codec. It's one thing entirely controlled by Skype.

  • get t400s with keyboard Spanish available in California

    Hello

    I am a Spaniard who currently work in the North of San Francisco and you want to know if I can get the new T400s with the Spanish provision on the keyboard (preferably ' Spanish of Spain", although I could handle with layout 'Latin America').

    Since I got here, it's not supposed to buy my laptop in Spain, so I wonder what I can do.

    Any suggestion is welcome.

    Thank you!

    You can find the list of RUF T400s keyboard here. I believe that the desired would be qualified bird "Spanish" and none of the 3 part numbers will do.

    Now comes the real challenge: get a. I got wrong in the past to non-US keyboards neat, even direct by IBM (which is responsible for all warranty & parts for ThinkPad always). Give Maintenance IBM parts a call to 1-800-765-5944 and see what they can do for you. Do try all three FRU listed and sometimes their system will list an other FRU, which they should research as well. Good luck and let us know how you are doing

  • VU-meter with severel bars and music file change!

    Hello

    I followed some tutorials how to do a vu-meter, an audio file. That seems to work for me! I added the function to have more bars of one, with a filter passes high and low. That's how I do it.

    Sound bar is ready

    Add the audio file

    Convert audio to keyframes

    Then I add the filter passes high and low on different audio amplitude, which seems to work. The bars are moving different. That is to say it will generate keyframes after, is that correct? (1) ?

    Now, my problem is, I would to add different music files, but with 20 bars will take much time, make new keys amplitude images every time, is there a way to do this, now it seems that it generates keyframes after (possible to add sound filters after generation og audio keyframe)? (2) ?

    I hope that someone can confirm 1 and 2 to answer!

    I think you have high filters and going down before converting audio into keyframes.  In this way, it will create keyframes in the desired frequency range.

  • Firefox 38.0.1 window resized with menu bar problem

    After update to 38.0.1, I have the active menu bar, and I have a problem with the firefox window, changing size when displaying pages. The entire window jitters then I lose the bar menu at the top of the tab bar. at this point, I can't click or enter data into a web page. If I select the border of the window and resize or move the window back to its original with the menu bar size and displayed correctly tabs.

    I also developer of Firefox v 40.a02 it was OK last week I was last updated on 29/05 and now also has the same problem.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

    • Tools > Options > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.

    You will need to close and restart Firefox after enabling/disabling this setting.

  • Problem with location bar search

    Prior to joining Firefox4, when I type something in the box, Firefox would try to direct me to the location that I intended. But now with Firefox4, it doesn't happen again, and instead, it shows a result of research by the research of Babylon. What can I do about it? I've tried 'keyword.enabled', but it did not help.

    The change between Firefox 3.6. * and Firefox 4 is how the location bar search. In Firefox 3.6, it uses Google search "search by name". With innovation by the name search, it performs a search on Google and if there is a clear match he will take you on the site, otherwise, it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it performs just a search on Google, if you type in something that is not recognized as a URL.

    To get the behavior of Firefox 3.6 on Firefox 4, you must change a hidden preference.

    1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press on enter
    2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    3. Locate the preference keyword. URL, double-click it and change its value on the link below (keyword.enabled must be set to true to make it work)

  • Calendar resumes always full screen with black bars at the top and bottom

    Calendar always starts like that. I can reduce and enlarge the window, and the problem disappears when the application is open.

Seems to happen on the screen of my Air and when you are connected to an external monitor.

    Hello

    I have the same problem.  I had this bug with 10.11.x for awhile and then he suddenly stopped.

    I don't really know how...  Maybe it was a cleaning with Onyx, but I'm not sure.

    Since the upgrade of 10.11.4 today the bug came back.  I ran Onyx on the system without a bit of luck so far.

    @xryancx: do you have that you have installed a beta version of Mac OS X?  It was my case (El Capitan GM) but I did upgrade to the official, as soon has - it is available on the Mac App Store.

    Some people think that I've noticed is that the bug does not affect view DAILY.

    Step to reproduce:

    1. Calendar launch (you'll get the bug full screen)
    2. Exit full screen
    3. Click on daily view
    4. Return to full screen mode
    5. Calendar of quit smoking
    6. Calendar lunch again (there is no bug with day mode)
