• Update of RAM and hard drive for Compaq 6710 b

  Hey guys,.

  I had Compaq 6710 b and I'll update my Ram and HARD drive on it with these (link here)

  On the system view, it says memory: 1.99 Gb and the Crucial site gives these details:

  Maximum memory: 4 GB
  Slots: 2

  But I looked under the hood of the ram and only thing I saw was a simple location with stick of 1 GB (below Sorry for bad quality and light photos)

  So then it just a single cell phone location? And I can buy a 1 x 4 GB DDR2 ram stick?

  Thank you

  To run Windows 7 64-bit, the processor must be a minimum Core 2 Duo.

  System requirements:

• RAM up grade hp pavilion dv7

  I have a HP pavilion dv7 - 4153CL

  It has 4 gig of ram and can go up to 8 GB. What I've read, it's a few times you can get 16 gig if your Bios is up to date. Is this true and if so how I updated the Bios so I can run more ram?

  Hello
  
  Pass in review Page 3 in your product manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02642701.pdf
  
  Your laptop supports only up to 8GB.
  
  There is nothing that can be done in the BIOS of your laptop to increase size.
  
  If you plan on overclocking in the BIOS - to increase the speed of the RAM, which can also be done in this laptop,
  
  Most of the laptops available for daily use is not configured for this.

  Sorry think it was the wrong number, I gave the full name is HP pavilion dv7-6b05ea if all goes well which is a bit more useful, also came its a site saying I can switch to 16 GB and wanted to make sure that its correct before buying a link for the site here

  This is correct information and Crucial is a great brand of memory. Crucial memory is guaranteed compatible memory when you use their memory finder. Take advantage of the 16 GB.

• Upgrade Ram on a HP PAVILION DV7

  Salvation was curious what kind of ram was ok to upgrade with.

  I tried to look at the site of suppport for this question but was unsuccessful. However if I missed it please tell me the correct link

  My laptop is:

  Description of the model: HP PAVILION DV7 - 6143CL

  Model number: LW181UA

  Running: Windows 7 64-bit

  I visited this site: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02863115

  If it does, this is the page of the plug for my laptop.

  It is said that it takes DDR3 and up to a maximum of 16 GB.

  However when I look at the DDR3 memory for laptops, I find plenty of options in terms of speed and latency cases.

  Modules of memory DDR3 SO-DIMM will work?

  Or a period of latency, speed and all will be better for my system than the others?

  Thanks for all the help!

  The upgrade is to go to the Web sites of memory well known manufacturers and see what they have to offer for your laptop. (Corsair, Crucial, Kingston and OCZ are a few well known memory andf respected manufacturers)

  Do a Google search like I did to see what is available and find the market price. Once you know which specific modules are then you can contact the stores to see which ones they have.

  https://www.google.com/search?q=HP+PAVILION+DV7-6143CL+upgrade+memory&oq=HP+PAVILION+DV7-6143CL+upgrade+memory&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i64.7781j0j4&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=122&ie=UTF-8#q=hp+pavilion+dv7+ram+upgrade&revid=171357479

  Purchase memory modules only well-known state of manufactured products is guaranteed compatible memory for your laptop. If you don't like that then you are taking a gamble.

  If you try to upgrade by looking at the specifications document, so you will probably find that the memory modules that you choose will disappoint you and cause your laptop to not start Windows.

  "DDR3 SO-DIMM memory modules will work?" They must be specific and have been tested with your laptop. That's how important memory manufacturers are able to guarantee compatibility with the module.

• How to access and replace a pavilion dv7-3173nr cooling fan?

  Pavilion dv7-3173nr member of my family had a cooling fan stop working. This has been noticed during my usual maintenance of it where I take a can of compressed air and spray to clean the fan. As he hit the air I was expecting the fan to turn but it did not. I've then turn it on to see if it would turn but it would turn still not. The warranty just missed in recent weeks and the manuals and other resources that I've found so far do not help. If someone could tell me how to access the fan for this model, it would be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance

• Sony Vaio with 32 bit Vista pre-installed. Want to remove and do a clean install of Vista 64-bit.

  I want to put Vista Ultimate 64-bit OEM on my Sony Vaio VGN-FW21E which has Vista Home Premium 32 bit installed. I intend to do a clean install.

  My question is I am able to restore the settings of Vista 32 bit and the factory once I installed Vista 64, either through the Sony Vaio Recovery Center or using recovery partition that is not on my machine?

  The laptop was purchased second hand off ebay and didn't come with any disks. The product key sticker is present on the underside of the laptop.

  Yes, you can reinstall clean 32 bit vista

  you need to get the sony vista recovery disc

  or use your recovery partition

  It depends on how you install 64-bit whether if the recovery partition is left untouched or not

  You can also reinstall the 32-bit version of this way

  borrow a microsoft dvd vista

  Make sure that you borrow correct 32-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

  they contain all versions of vista

  This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

  ask also sony how to make this recovery partition recovery disks now before you go ahead and install the 64-bit vista

  then you have reinstall disks for 32-bit vista

• Update the motherboard and processor

  Hi, I have a HP PC with a motherboard problem. (PC hangs and I can see several swollen capacitors) So since it must be replaced in any case I think I might as well upgrade the processor and the card mother together. The GPU and power supply are already upgraded.
  How can I get a motherboard better which could be agreed in the case of HP?
  And is there a way to know what the best MB/CPU combo is available which will always be compatible with my DDR2 RAM?

  I'll appreciate any advice. Don't you think it's time for a new PC.  I will include the relevant specifications.

  HP Pavilion Media Center m8430f desktop PC

  Motherboard manufacturer: Asus IPIBL-LB

  HP/Compaq name: Benicia-GL8E

  Micro-ATX: 24,5 cm (9.6 inches) x 24.5 cm (9.6 inches)

  Intel G33

  CPU Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4 GHz
  Socket: 775
  Bus speed: 1066 MHz

  Thanks for the reply.

  I installed my old GPU (Geforce 9800GTX) in this PC and things seem to work

  a little better now. Maybe it was the new card BSODing my computer. Still I can see problems with the MB and do not know how much longer I have. So I still need to buy a new PC and could use some advise. I'm an older guy and my next PC will probably be my last so I'm worried about making a mistake.

  I use my PC all day. Especially for playing video games and watching

  movies and writing. I don't even have a TV. I use the computer for everything.
  I tried to shop online for a PC for a while now. I used the

  configurators to iBuyPower and CyberPower and I did research to build my own.
  I have even a little in my cart to start HP right now. They all have their advantages

  and disadvantages, but the main thing is that HP is the only one that I don't really trust.

  I like this HP ENVY 700qe desktop PC. There the processor 'K '. He

  is not a graphics card but compensates with 12 GB of RAM. I already have

  a better graphics card that offers those HP is a good compromise to me.
  I prefer Windows 7 Ultimate for Windows 8, so I'll change that right away. I have

  already have a 7 license and can just pocket the 8 which is fine.
  I would like to than the 256 GB SSD, but I think that their trade to the top is too expensive ($200) and

  I can always do it later anyway.
  I'm not too family with disk but cashing for $50, it's worth.
  I don't know what a 15-in-1 multi slot card reader is but 6 USB ports must be better than 4, so I would choose this option.
  I have better food they offer, but for $20, I'd get the 500W.

  What do you think? What Miss me? And how do you like yours? You can get a better price if you shop somewhere other than HP Direct?

• DV7-6b56nr: the upgrade of processor on pavilion dv7-6b56nr laptop

  I called and they gave me some numbers that was supposed to be compatible but they were processors intel.  I have an AMD Board.  It seemed really hard... Laughing out loud

  Thank you

  Hi @no_name ,
  
  Compatible processors are listed on Page 26 of this manual:

• Is it useful to upgrade ram 8 GB - hp pavilion dv7 - 2043cl?

  I'm looking for some advice about whether it would be useful to upgrade the RAM in my laptop 4 GB maximum of 8 GB.

  I've had this laptop for over 5 years and I use it for games. I wonder if I will notice a difference in performance by simply upgrading the RAM, or if the processor speed, video card, etc., are or will be obsolete in the near future, and if I just save that money and put it to a new computer.

  Here is the technical page of the computer: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01705991

  Crucial lists kit upgrade for a little under $ 200.

  Hello:

  If the 2 x 4 GB memory DDR2 was $60,00 as if it was a few years ago, I would say go for it.

  But now that it's $200 and more, I recommend that you put that money towards a new laptop or a model renovated better than what you have, with DDR3 memory.

  You will probably notice some performance improvement, but not $200.
