What is the maximum allowed by a HP Pavilion zv5000 laptop RAM allocation

The specifications for an HP Pavilion Notebook ZV5160US (DZ330U) available on HP web site indicates the allocation of eligible as maximum RAM (1x256M, 1x1GB). In the meantime, Crucial downloadable memory scan suggests that 2x1GB is a legitimate laptop SODIMM (2) configuration. Who should I believe; and, in addition, what truth is there for some versions of Windows only benefiting from extra RAM so memory "match" the size and configuration? This laptop runs Windows XP Home Edition.

Thank you, Paul!

I did not hold much hope of much attention to issues related to this one laptop dated - but I am pleasantly surprised to find that someone was interested to address an issue that may find application even in conjunction with the latest computer models.

Given your answer, several nuggets of info available on the web (and on the web site of HP) and information from scan of Crucial memory, I will probably go with modules of memory of 1 GB. For sure, current applications can use (and most certainly end up using) all the RAM, you can collect!

  • HP DV7-3063cl laptop PC: what is the maximum temperature for safe operation of the DV7 3063 cl with the upgrade of the 640 M CPU?

    I have recently restored a HP DV7 3063 cl laptop that died a hot mother (MB). I replaced the MB with a new Board of Directors of HP when the price has been reduced to $100, updated the CPU with an announced as new AMD 640 M and applied Arctic Silver on CPU and graphics chips. I put in 4 G memory cool, got the computer to work and installed Windows 10.

    The computer seems to run very hot and stopped twice from overheating during its first period of 2 weeks when it there was not a lot of calculating, fan was run at top speed at all times, and the laptop was high to allow good airflow below.

    According to the program of the Open Hardware Monitor, the CPU had reached 97-99 C a few times. I bought support cooling a player and that seems to help a lot, dropping the temperature to 20 ° C.

    What is the maximum temperature for safe operation of the DV7 with the upgrade of the 640 M CPU?

    Anything more than 90 c is too hot. You can specify the processor and the motherboard you have installed?

    Also if this from the Manual:

    Thermal paste is used on 1 CPU and heat sink section 2 that the services it. Thermal pads are used on the chip Northbridge 3 and 4, the graphical subsystem chip 5 contact Northbridge and graphics/heatsink contact 6. Thermal material replacement is included with all kits of spare parts of processor, heatsink and system board.

    So unless you have changed the cooling system to heat composed on the chip graphic you should have used a thermal buffer. Without the pad, it may leave just a small hallway and destroy the cooling properties. You can use a shim in copper or other piece of something metal to fill the void, but if you just put the heat sink down on the video chip you won't get optimal even with thermal cooling paste.

  • What is the maximum size of hard drive, which can be installed in a pavilion d4790y desktop computer?

    What is the maximum size of hard drive, which can be installed in a desktop pavilion d4790y?

    It would be a secondary drive, not the boot drive.

    The operating system is Vista Home Premium, 32-bit.  The version of the BIOS is 5.08.

    Are there any changes or upgrades that would allow an internal hard drive 3 TB to install?

    Here are the specifications and configurable options for your desktop HP Pavilion d4790y and here are the specifications of its card mother P5BW - THE (Basswood2). Based on the specifications and the age of the computer, I would expect you to use a hard drive 3 TB as a secondary drive on Windows Vista (DISPLACEMENT SP1 or SP2) and Windows 7. Formatted as MBR would require the drive to use with a minimum of two partitions. Formatted as GPT would require only a single partition. In no case will you be able to use the 3 TB as a boot device drive because your computer does not support a UEFI BIOS that allows booting from a GPT formatted disk. No changes or updated should be held.

  • What is the maximum size of HARD drive, I use in my dc7600 CMT

    I use a HP dc7600 CMT, which works well after the upgrade to a Samsung 128 GB SSD Intel Pentium D 3.4 GHz, 4 GB of RAM and an AMD Radeon HD 6450. I'm under Win 8.1 Pro x 64, with the most recent upgrade and have absolutely no problem. Now, I want to add a second internal HDD and I wonder what is the maximum size that I can go to. I can't go up to 2 TB, or am I limited to a lower number? 1 TB? 500 GB? 250 GB?

    Will be happy to help here, especially if he actually tried to apply in practice.

    Thanks in advance.

    Best regards

    Hello:

    In theory, you'd be limited to 2 TB.

    The biggest HARD drive I have ever installed in my dc7600 CMT was a 1 TB of HDD, so I can't confirm that a 2 TB drive will absolutely work.

  • Satellite Pro 4600 - what is the maximum size of HARD drive?

    My age Satellite Pro 4600 has a 20 GB HARD drive. These are now very difficult to obtain, does anyone know if superior capacy HDDs can be used and, if so, what is the maximum size of the HARD drive.

    (Despite his age that I always use the Satellite Pro for some jobs).

    Hello John

    Satellite Pro 4600 is old enough for laptop and it is not easy to find the exact info. The fact is that this laptop comes with 10 and 20 GB hard drives.
    My opinion is that you can use 30 or even 40 GB HDD. I think that 30 GB new HARD drive should be enough for your some jobs.

    What do you think?

  • Portege M200 - what is the maximum HARD disk?

    Hello

    I need to know what is the maximum capacity of the hard drive that is supported by Portege M200.

    Hello!

    I guess that the Portege M200 is equipped with an IDE HDD interface. This means that the laptop has a limitation of LBA 28 bits and so it can only manage s HDD up to 128 GB. If you can use a 120 GB HARD drive in this notebook.
    If you want to learn more about the limitation of the LBA you can look on Wikipedia or here: [www.48bitlba.com].

    I have good experiences with Seagate drive HARD Hitachi s, but you can also buy another HARD drive. ;)

    I hope I could help you.

  • What is the maximum capacity of the disk for Portege M700?

    Does anyone know what is the maximum capacity of disk for Portege M700?

    Thanks for the reply

    As I m wrong not the Portege M700 does support a SATA HDD.
    In this case we must avoid any limitation of the size of the HARD disk
    Usually, you can use almost all SATA 2.5 hard drives in you M700.

    It is not listed in the specifications.

    It seems therefore that the laptop is already upgraded to the maximum RAM.

    Hello

    I have to re - install the factory installed Win 7 on my Satellite A500-1 because I'm not able to install SP1.
    The cause is that inside Win 7 product information is missing.

    With regard to what I like to install a new HARD disk with more capacity (400 gb current).

    What HARD drive I can install and what is the maximum capacity (1 TB, 750 GB)?

    BIOS is updated.

    Any advice is welcome.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    To my knowledge, there is no limitation of the capacity of the HARD disk since the SATA controller is used and the SATA controller should support over 400GB.

    The problem is that there is no official information on the maximum size of HARD drive on laptop series different. If we can only speculate on the supported formats.

    But I found it here in the forum:

    The user has updated the own M70 with the 160 GB drive HARD Toshiba MK1637GSX and it works.
