I'll try it if I have the money or if someone I know has the memory stick. Someone on a laptop forum said his dad has the C700 and was able to fit 3GB in there since Vista is a memory hog. As for the RAM, I don't know the difference between your RAM type and mine, if any such differences exist.

And I was recommended to update the BIOS, but I don't know much about it and it appears out of date (F8 to F35 seems a tad out of date to me).
Anyway, I forgot about the antivirus, thanks for that. Might as well stick with it since I'm shipping off to college soon. That BIOS revision is quite a jump from what you currently have."Įh, I wanted to build a desktop a few months back and didn't have the funds for it. Sounds like you've done some homework on it. "If you flash the BIOS, will the T8100 then be supported? It should with the Mobile Intel 965 chipset, but I don't know about your particular notebook.

Of course you need a 64 bit OS and capable 64 bit processor to enjoy the extra RAM.Īccording to the specs, yours can only take a max of 2 GB of memory, so I am wondering if they did something in your BIOS to limit the memory and processor you can install. I read on the internet that someone installed 8 GB in his so, I went ahead and installed it in mine too. Folks say that is because no 4 GB memory modules were available at the time.
My specs stated it could only take a max of 4 GB (2 x 2 GB). The reason I ask is because I have an HP Compaq 6910p with the same chipset (T7300 processor), but I have 8 GB of PC-6400 memory in mine (2 x 4 GB). If you flash the BIOS, will the T8100 then be supported? It should with the Mobile Intel 965 chipset, but I don't know about your particular notebook. You don't want that running or it may think a virus is attacking your BIOS, interrupt the flash, and render your notebook quite useless when you go to restart it. I recommend if you flash the BIOS you do it in Windows safe mode or uninstall or disable your antivirus.

Here is the support and driver page for your notebook: Windows Vista. Might as well learn about software since I'm doing this. Also, a "noob" rundown of why the BIOS needs updating and why it doesn't do it automatically would be greatly appreciated. Miscellaneous: Took the computer apart to clean the fans and twice more to remove the old CPU and then put it back after a black screen popped up on startup after installing the T8100.Īnyway, I'm in need of a BIOS update and I was told this support forum was the way to go.

I don't know if you need any of this information, but it never hurts to put it down, anyway:
