View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to upgrade the RAM memory on my Gateway MX3230 notebook. It presently has 256 MB and I would like to upgrade to 1 GB. I have checked the Gateway website and and upgrade to 1 GB is acceptable. I purchased a memory module from Kingston which was listed as being compatible with my laptop. When I tried installing the module, the computer will not start, nothing but black screen. It's as thought there is no memory at all. I tried re-installing the module making sure it was inserted in as far as it will go, still no luck. There is no settings in bios that I can see that would prevent the acceptance of this module

View 12 Replies View RelatedMy computer is 2 years old and after adding many games for the grandkids my computer has started slowing down. I now have 512MB of memory would it speed up my computer to add memory? If so how much should I add and how do I do this? Is there a site that shows step by step instructions?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a custom pc with 512Mb of memory and want to add 1Gb to that.Ive already
check at Kingston,Crucial and Gigabyte sites and know I need a DDR-333 memory.
I have some questions though.
1.Will I need to add an extra fan to avoid higher temperature anywhere?
2.How can I know if my existing memory stick will work with the new one?
3.Do I need to change any configuration in my computer?
I have 512MB of RAM with a 1.9GB processor. I installed another 512MB into the computer... Now my computer wont work properly... I get a message saying that some file is corrupt and I need to repair it.
I did what I needed to do but when I boot up and get to the logon screen, it is asking me for a password for my logon name.I never had a password for any of my logon names.By this, I cant get onto my computer. I even tried to go into Safe Mode, samething. It is asking me for a password at the Administrator logon name
I have a Dell computer with XP Home edition.It has Service Pack 2, Pentium 4 CPU 1.6 GHz 1.59GHz, 512 MB Ram.

Can I upgrade The memory and speed of my computer?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI recently purchased additional memory, 2 sticks of 256mb PC133, for my HP computer. I currently have 2x128mb and this has worked since I bought my computer about 3 years
ago. My problem is that when I install both the new sticks, 512 total, the system refuses to boot into Windows and gives a FATAL SYSTEM ERROR. I don't get this
error with the 128mb memory, or even when mixing for a total of 384. The memory is from Crucial.com and I have run diagnostics on all sticks with no problems. I have
all the lastest Windows, BIOS, and hardware updates available, and still it crashes
i want to increase the memory on my computer, at present it is 512. Is it just a case of buying new memory and un pluging the old and pluging in the new if so what happens to all the stuff on the old memory.

My wife uses this for game play etc.It had 1 512m & 1 256 card in it & worked ok.
I removed the 256 card & put a second 512 in.When i boot up i just get 3 beeps all of the same length & the monitor light goes green & then back to orange & the screen says no signal.We bought the tower cheap about 12 months ago at 256mb so i put another 512 in it which made a great improvement.Just wondering why when i try to upgrade further this is happening.If i remove the second 512 & put the 256 back in it works fine.

We can't figure out what to do, we both have the same computer, bought it at the same time, mine runs like a charm but their's does not at all, the cpu usage is sky high when you aren't doing anything and sometimes it is 0% when you ARE doing stuff. There is about 10 or more svchost.exe's running, two under a seperate username and none of which we can stop. There are diagnostic lights on the back BUT anytime there is anything wrong with the lights we look in the manual and on the offical website and NO ONE HAS THE LIGHT COMBONATION THAT WE DO!!

A very minor nuisance I know, but my pop up blocker requires me to hold control every time I want to open a new window. Is there an effective, free pop up blocker that doesn't require this effort (I sit at a funny angle to the right of my keyboard with my feet up!)I currently use Pop Up Stopper which is otherwise very, very good.

And also is it a safer bet over Norton? have used it for barely 12 hours, so have no clue as to what its like.I know that Norton majorly slows down the PC and like tht but so far thats what im the most comfortable with. Ive used McAfee twice, for 2 months or so each time. It has let me down both the times, so looking for options apart from Norton. THough heavy on the system, i think its th best.Also, could someone help me with my graphics driver (+ virus) problem? posted the problem yesterday, emtronics has done his best to help me out but not much has really improved.. so if anyone else could also chip in and help me out.

My PC always passed.I just tested my computer with grc's 'leak test' and it FAILED! My PC was penetrated.Does this mean that the firewall provided by Win XP is not doing it's job? If so, should I go back to ZA and disable XP's firewall? (2) I also just heard that Windows Media Player is also a good vehicle for spyware to infiltrate my PC. How can I stop this short of uninstalling the program?
