RAM up date

Slow Windows Machine!

Sounds like not enough resources such as RAM and CPU. Check Performance in Task-Manager (CTRL-ALT-DELETE). High CPU levels causes hang ups like freezing.

• Try disabling startup programs. Go to Start > Run (search in Win 7) and type MSConfig. In Startup tab, uncheck anything that you don't want Windows to load automatically. It will make Windows boot faster and use less resources while running. This just disables them in startup. Programs will still load, but when only you initiate.
  

• Consider increasing RAM.
  
• Uninstall any extras like those pushy toolbars, and add-ons.
  
• Use a player with up to date codecs like VLC Player.

Hi

See here for an idea of the 2nd User market price of this computer and its RAM Memory Modules:

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_kw=PRESARIO&_kw=SR1475CL&_dmpt=Desktop_PCs

This specification of your brother's computer may seem okay for offline, single function-at-a-time computing functions, but will almost certainly be unbearably slow browsing on the internet, opening busy webpages, accessing the internet at peak times, downloading data and updates, multi-tasking and on functions like video streaaming.

No disrespect at all to him, but even at the time your brother brought this computer in 2006, there was better, faster Dual Core CPU and DDR2 RAM technology emerging and widely available.

You would almost certainly need to upgrade the RAM by removing the 512Mb stick installed (and then discarding it - almost nobody needs 512Mb RAM sticks now) and replacing it with 2 x 1Gb sticks.

Because 1Gb DDR RAM Memory Modules are a scarce commodity, no longer in production, much sought after by users with old, slow computers and highly prized and treasured by those who have managed to get their hands on some, there is a rapidly dwindling pool of supply and the price is relatively high.

When you add the cost of the computer and the RAM, you would probably be better off using the same money to buy a faster, more powerful, more up-to-date notebook, netbook, nettop or even a slightly more up-to-date, used Desktop that takes DDR2 RAM rather than the older, slower DDR RAM of your brother's computer.

The best outcome for both of you, would be for your brother to get the highest price he can for his computer from eBay or some similar site and for you to browse Amazon Market Place for the best, most up-to-date computer you can afford.

www.amazon.com > Amazon Market Place features reputable, trusted suppliers trading warrantied products under Amazon's oversight. Pay with a major credit card for further protection from your card issuer.

I hope this helps

Hello.

Try System Restore.

Boot your system to Safe Mode (press F8 repeatedly when powering on). Go to System Restore and choose a date when your system worked OK. Note: with System Restore, all your updates will roll back to that date. Follow the process.

Hope this helps.

It's memory problem.
You should try another RAM module or stick it to another slot.

1. If the another RAM works - you need new RAM
2. If the RAM in another slots works - the original slot is destroyed
3. If any of above works, motherboard RAM slots are destroyed - you should buy new motherboard

i guess you did not check the compatibility of the RAMs to your MB limitations....
the only solution is to return the RAMs and get the RAMs that is supported by your MB.....

the MB (D102GGC2) can hold only a max of 533 mhz and max of 1GB each in each slot of RAM....
so if you are trying to install one 2GB card of 800 mhz IT WIILL NOT WORK....
get TWO RAM cards of 1GB each (total 2GB) of RAM.... each of 400 mhz....

hope this helps...

to check what your MB supports, look for the details below...

By this do you mean you want to increase the RAM on your computer?
I suggest you use PC2100 DDR RAM (same speed) and increase the total RAM to what your require but use the same RAM manufacturer if possible.
If you want to install more than 2Gb of RAM, check the motherboard specification for the maximum RAM that the motherboard can support.
Your motherboards may support more RAM with a BIOS upgrade.

DDR2 RAM (667 MHz) you can try 2gig sticks and they should work specially if you arerunning newr operating system.

if helpful please rate this fixya.

Thanks

You can identify the hardware in your computer using the Directx Diagnostic tool:

• Click on the Start button and choose Run
• Type "dxdiag" without the quotes then press ok

If you receive a message related to checking for whql signatures, choose Yes.
On the first tab, system, you can find the following information pertinent to game requirements:

• Operating System
• Processor
• Memory

On the display tab (Under 'Device' on the left):

• Name - The name given to the card by the manufacturer, this will usually, but not always contain information on the chip type it uses
• Manufacturer - The company who manufactured the card
• Chip type - The information in this section needs to match the videocard type specified on the game's minimum specification found on the packaging
• Approx total memory - The amount of video memory. With onboard videocards, this may be shared with the system memory

On the display tab (Under 'Driver' on the right):

• Version - The software installed controlling the videocard
• Date - This gives an indication of how up to date your videocard software is. A more current date is more beneficial in running games on a PC

On the sound tab:

• Name - The name given to the card by the manufacturer
• Version - The software installed controlling the soundcard
• Date - This gives an indication of how up to date your soundcard software is. A more current date is more beneficial in running games on a PC

hope this works for you, update drivers and see if you can run this on your own PC
