    Latest bios for HP Media Center PC?

    sad how, how fixya AI guessing wrong??? pathetic, mess....
    wow a very old media center, gen 2 of 14 or so.
    HP does not support this quote
    HP Media Center m1070n Desktop PC,its RETIRED now
    https://support.hp.com/us-en/retired-products


    The BIOS does not do that!
    what HP, it has full name and model.
    the MMC controls this, and is very strict. (mem-managment controller)
    the memory you are buying is no good. for YOUR PC.
    this is so very common
    and worse every year,
    ever heard of Crucial or Kingston memory
    they can fit up memory for you, it very complex.
    not just DMM1, 2,3, but speed, min.
    density rules.
    chip count rules
    chip voltage, 1.3. 1.5 or both or?
    Total memory max allowed and PER SOCKET !
    and even number of chips per side of stick , rule.
    that worst was intel i5 old processors.
    those are facts, and only the exact motherboard you have a
    and what processor is there, (and if mmc is external to processor that)
    matter.
    ? this?
    M1070n

    finding data on such and old box.
    is not easy but google can dig up bits.
    why not ask Kingston? for help,.

    key facts are, (besides old)
    HP Media Center m1070n Desktop PC
    Intel Pentium 4 520 / 2.8 GHz
    Intel 915P Express (my guess, mmc is inside here)
    oops

    • Form Factor
      DIMM 184-pin
    looks like 1GB max per slot , 1 to 4.
    good luck finding SDRAM in 2017 that works.

    why not find a newer box? (pc) say 2010 or newer.,
    they will run better and can buy ram easy
    vastly better.... even Goodwill has them for few bucks
    or this.

    Can I upgrade to windows 7

    Download and install the Windows7 Upgrade Advisor software using the following link. It will tell you what upgrades you may need.
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/upgrade-advisor

    NOTE: [These are my recommendations only] You should have a Video Card with at least 256 MB Ram to take advantage of AeroDesktop. You should have a minimum of 2 GB of System Memory.
    I have a laptop with 1 GB System Ram and only 128 MB Video and Win7 works well.

    Just need to know what model of RAM I need to upgrade. I ran the Windows 7 memory test and it stalls at 21% and tells me there's a hardware problem.

    Their might be many issues when windows 7 could not be installed successfully.

    However to answer this question this computer has 3 RAM installed (512 MB each). So it has 1.5GB installed
    More information about the product specification is available at:
