Extra ram cause restarting problem on g7-2325dx

I have g7-2325dx with 4gb ram, and when I attach extra 4gb ddr3 sodim ram from best buy, the laptop shows error messages leading to restart. When I restart it, it will work for about 5 minutes and error message will show up again restarting the laptop. So I decided to get rid of it. Is there anyway I can put this extra ram without causing error messages?

Hello Chris,
As mentioned in post #2 (by Pepe) try updating your BIOS first. Btw Could you let me know the error message you were receiving? Also did you try installing the 4GB (new*) memory alone in the slots and did it boot up if you have tried?
Moreover, in order for your laptop to recognize 8GB of memory you need to have a 64Bit of operating system as 32Bit recognizes a memory of 3 - 3.5GB only.
My theory is either the 4GB module maybe defective or it maybe due to the use of generic brands. Sometimes some Generic (OEM) brand memory will not work. In case you need to test the memory, then you can test it using memtest86 (click here).
You can send back the memory to bestbuy and instead try buying from crucial, memorystock, corsair, G skill, OCZ. Kingston.. you can find the memory in the above websites.
Following is the exact specs of the memory which your system supports - 4GB DDR3-1600 MHz, PC3-12800 SODIMM (HP MFG # - H2P64UT#ABA)
Good Luck with the upgrade
Best Regards,
John

Could Bad RAM Cause Video Problems in 1st Gen 24" iMac

I have been having video problems with my 1st Gen 24" iMac over the past 6 months, but recently the machine wouldn't turn on at all. I left it at my local Apple Store to be diagnosed and they said that it was just a bad stick of RAM (not a big deal, its cheap these days). But what I forgot to ask them was, could that bad RAM be causing the video problems I've been having or is it the video card also?
Thanks!

Are you still having video problems since the ram was replaced? If the problem went away then it was the cause, it not then something else is.

Installing RAM causing Firewire problem?

I have a 1.25 GHz iMac G4 that I inherited from my father-in-law. Has been feeling rather sluggish. Recognized yesterday that the problem might be insufficient RAM (only had the factory installed 256). So I purchased a 512 RAM extension and inserted in the user-accessible slot yesterday. Seems to be working fine. Only problem is that the firewire (400) ports no longer seem to work (at first, thought it was an external hard drive problem, but the iBook recognizes the external drive when plugged into the iBook). Anyone have any ideas? I ran disk utility repair permissions, which repaired some permissions, but made no difference....

Tried that. Still not working. Also tried the instructions often on a number of websites that recommend disconnecting all wires, disconnecting from AC, and then reconnecting.
As an additional detail, all that shows up in System Profiler under FireWire is "FireWire Bus:"
Another possible symptom: in the first shut down after installing the new RAM, shut down failed to shut down.
I may bring the machine to the folks that sold me the RAM.... (Unless people think that there's no possible way it could be the RAM..... I suppose I could always remove it and see if the FireWire ports come back....)

New RAM causes crash problems

Hello Everybody,
have some problems with new RAM for my G5. With the original 4 x 256 RAM everything's going fine, but as soon as I correctly stick in the new 2 x 1 GB (Mac Dealer bought), my mac's going crazy (crashes or not being able to install and so on...) Changed the new RAM allready at my Mac Dealer, things remain the same. Does anybody have an idea?

Have you made sure the RAM is properly seated?
If it is, contact the Mac dealer and inform them they have a bad batch of RAM.

Will 16Gb RAM on a Early 2011 2.7 Ghz i7 Macbook 13" cause any problem? Also i plan to upgrade to Mountain Lion, will it work?

I want to upgrade my machine with 16 GB RAM, it already has a G.Skill single RAM chip of 8gb. need help with the following. Will upgrading to 16Gb RAM on a Early 2011 2.7 Ghz i7 Macbook 13" cause any problem? Also i plan to upgrade to Mountain Lion, will it work?

It won't cause you any issues or problems....
it is however, suggested you install the same brand RAM that are of the same specs....
1333MHz........
Installing different brands with different CL speed might cause issues....
so if you already have a G.Skill RAM installed, then install the same brand.

Problem installing extra RAM

Hi,
I recently decided to increase my RAM. I have an iMac G5 with iSight ( Power PC ). I bought a memory module from the online Apple Store here in the UK, by clicking on the model ( under Memory ) and selecting the 1 Gb module - 533 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM ( it made no specific mention of the PC2-4200 compliancy but I assumed it was the right one given the route I followed ). It duly arrived and I installed it by following the manual. However, on checking About This Mac the extra RAM was not registering, ie still showing the original 512 Mb RAM. I called Apple Tech Support and we tried a few things like resetting PRAM etc,but no change. Eventually, I was put on to sales and arranged to retunr the module and get a refund. I got the impression by the way the conversation went that this was not the first time this had happened.
So, no extra RAM. Anyone tried to install extra RAM in an identical model?And, if so, did they get their module from Apple? I'm assuming this is nothing to do with the fact that I have a Power PC model and the current models are all Intel?
Any help and/or advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Any RAM can be faulty, and I suspect the one you got from Apple was. Go online and Google for PC2-4200 (533MHz) DDR2 SDRAM memory. Kingston is a good brand and should come with a lifetime warranty. Most RAM from sources other than Apple is cheaper as well. The RAM you bought is correct for your model, and make sure that when you instal it, you hear it click into place.
Please post back with results,

Mac Pro Reboot or Restart Problems

I have a Mac Pro G5 that's about 3 months old and whenever I do a reboot (either from the Apple menu or ControlAppleDelete), the MacPro immediately goes to a black screen and sounds began to emunate from the drive area like it's trying to catch. The only way to stop the sound and really reboot is to unplug the G5. Now, sometimes the warning screen appears which mentions there is like 2 minutes before it restarts, but most of the time, it doesn't even appear. Regardless if I get the warning or not, the black screen and skipping sounds always does. I've reported it Apple and they've suggested taking it into a Apple Certified Center as it's still under warrenty.
Side note: a couple times in the last few days, the G5 has gone to sleep and I could not wake it without having to unplug. Finally, I set the hard drive to Never go to Sleep in the Energy Saver prefs. I think that might be working because it hasn't happened since.
I don't think its the "85% hard drive is full" or the RAM is suspect (2 gigs installed when purchased from Apple). It's perplexing. We have an identical G5 in the office that is perhaps 2 months older and it doesn't do this when I've tested it.
While I don't reboot or restart often, my concern is the problem could began to surface on initial start ups. I'm waiting for the local Apple store to return my call but I thought I'd check with a Discussion Thread as well. Thanks for your time!

+Do those items point to something you installed or use? Aladdin?+
The only tie to Aladdin I can find is StuffIt Expander, which I don't believe I installed directly on this Mac Pro. However, I did check the Startup Script on my current G4 Mac and it does include the reference to Aladdin in the Startup and on the G4, it says it was successful. On this Mac Pro, it states it was not.
+There are three tabs in Disk Warrior. Directory you can hold OPTION and it changes to REBUILD... and then you can click on SCAVENGE. There is a file repair tab. And you can manually check hard drive status. I would not use anything extra for drive status and smart. Too many of a good thing.+
I have already rebuilt the Directory with Disk Warrior. Should I do it again using the OPTION>SCAVENGE approach?
+When you click on manual drive check, it writes to the system log what the count of bad blocks used, attempts, and stuff.+
I did the manual drive check but cannot seem to find the system log related to logging this actual event. However, the description box did say the drive checked out okay.
+I do think it needs some bench time with AppleCare as to what is up.+
I tend to agree. It would ease my mind knowing that someone who can read these System logs might be able to decipher these log events. A couple of things I'm wondering could be causing some problems: about the time all this reboot issues had started, I had manually changed my Computer Name in the Sharing pane of System prefs. But its my understanding this is where I could change it without causing any issues. Secondly, I had recently downloaded and installed a mp3 encoding program called iLas, as a alternative to the iTunes so-so mp3 encoder. It does tend to run from an AppleScript-- could this be a culprit?
Thanks again for your help!

Restart Problem Fix for Mega 865

Just letting people know how I fixed my Mega 865 restart problems
my quick story
I built my 865 with 512RAM and installed XP MCE2005. The next day I installed a 1 GIG RAM chip and the system would not boot into XP. It would get to the windows boot screen and crash when loading the hard drive drivers.... or somewhere around there. couldnt even get into safe mode. I removed the Radeon 9800 and it booted. oh no could it be the AGP Card?
well I put it back in and tried every thing,
removed the new 1 GIG RAM, same problem
reset BIOS
reset to Safe Settings BIOS
reset to Optimal BIOS
repair XP recovery console, fix MBR ...etc
then I the BIOS I tried dropping the AGP Aperature size from 64MB down to 8MB. It fixed the problem.
I'm guessing the issue is really one of power. the PSU is only 230w and with the extra ram stick, it had problems putting out enough power.
so I dropped the agp aperature down to 8MB (shouldnt matter as the card has 128MB and hopefully shouldnt need system RAM)
I also turned off the serial port (set it to disabled - who uses the serial port anyway)
and disabled the modem and network card (dont need the modem and I'm using the wireless card instead of the ethernet one)
hopefully turn these things off will prevent furthur power issues when running games and stuff.

the prescott core P4s are hot enough as it is, without squeezing a 3.2ghz in there, along with a hot GPU
i would recommend the northwood core P4, as they run cooler and are just as good as prescott P4s as tests have shown
and i would also advise you to search through this forum for topics about mega 180 heat issues; the issues will apply to all mega series, just seems to cause more of a problem with the 180, but most ideas will apply to 865
first thing to check is airflow, make sure that there are no cable looms in front of heatsink, obstructing airflow to the fan. bear in mind too that by default, the fan is already blowing hot air off the AGP card onto the heatsink (yes, poor design by MSI but it can be resolved apparently by "reversing" fan airflow).

Hi LsmithIIIkw,
This aritlce has some tips that should help you identify and resolve the issue.
OS X Mavericks: If your Mac restarts and a message appears
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14063
If your Mac restarts unexpectedly, an error known as a “kernel panic” occurred. After the restart, you’ll see a message that your computer restarted because of a problem.
The most likely cause is faulty software. A kernel panic can also be caused by damaged or incompatible hardware, including external devices attached to your Mac.
Note: To print these instructions, open the Help Viewer’s Action pop-up menu (looks like a gear), then choose Print.
If the kernel panic is caused by a known problem, the faulty software is identified. To make sure that this software doesn’t continue to cause kernel panics, move it to the Trash.If the faulty software is not identified and your Mac continues to experience kernel panics, follow the troubleshooting steps below.
Restart the Mac in safe mode. If the Mac successfully starts up in safe mode, choose Apple menu > Software Update, then download and install any updates available for your Mac.Start up in safe mode
Uninstall any plug-ins or other enhancement software from manufacturers other than Apple. If you recently updated OS X or an app, plug-ins and other software that worked in the past may no longer be compatible. Read the manufacturer’s documentation (including Read Me notes) to be sure the software is compatible with your version of OS X.
Reset parameter random-access memory (PRAM).Reset your computer’s PRAMApple Support article: Mac OS X: What’s stored in PRAM?
Use Disk Utility to repair your startup disk or your disk permissions, or both.
Disconnect all USB and FireWire devices, except for the Apple keyboard and mouse. Remove hardware upgrades from other manufacturers, such as random–access memory (RAM) and Peripheral Component Interconnect cards. Then try restarting your Mac.If this resolves the issue, reconnect one device at a time, restarting your Mac after reconnecting each one, until you determine which device is causing the problem.
Use Apple Diagnostics or Apple Hardware Test. These apps can tell you if hardware you installed, such as additional memory, is incompatible, improperly installed, or defective.Use Apple Diagnostics or Apple Hardware Test
If the steps above don’t help, try reinstalling OS X.Reinstall OS XNote: If you moved or renamed an OS X system file or folder, you must reinstall OS X. It won’t work to just replace or rename the specific item.

Dual Monitor Causing System Problems?

Hi, I'm new to this site, so I hope this is where I ask this question! My design group switched to G5/Cinema Display screen from old g4 setups mid 2005. I retained my Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 2020u monitor to use as a secondary display for pallettes, extra files, etc. It's hooked up using a dvi-vga adapter.
My new G5 had hiccups from the start, but around March 2006 I started getting Kernel Panics almost every week, serious slow-downs, Adobe app crashes, etc. It got to the point that I was troubleshooting every week, but could never put a finger on exactly what was happening. IT archive-installed 10.4.4 after we discovered the system had been updated to 10.4.6 and we thought that would solve the problem. While that solved the issues that were relevant to 10.4.6 glitches, it didn't fix everything and little, persistent problems remained, including stalls, crashes and kernel panics. After removing suspect fonts, wallpaper, icons, updating software, repairing permissions, tossing preferences, and other troubleshooting over and over, we (I.T.) finally switched my cpu to another one in the department using data migration (just my user information, not software or other files). Still the same hiccups and even new glitches appeared (InDesign crashing on spellcheck, Photoshop not granting me access to save changes to files, etc.), including two more Kernel panics (within 5 minutes of each other) in the two weeks since we switched hardware. More troubleshooting fixed the app-specific problems, but there are still the persistent annoyances occurring.
I again did all the troubleshooting mentioned above and finally someone mentioned that I'm the only designer in our group using a dual display set-up. Could there be validity to the non-cinema display monitor causing these problems and if so, what is the solution? I've disconnected the second monitor for now, but would love to have it back. Also, we work with a server (for instance, the kernel panics only happen when I try to place a file from the server into InDesign CS2 using the place command, so there's another avenue to go down if the monitor isn't the issue.)Thanks!

I only just disconnected the monitor, so it will take time to tell if that's a factor. As for the kernel panics, although it's always the same scenario (placing images from server through InDesign) they happen very randomly; it's not happening every single time I place a file. In fact, I just placed an image on the server into an ID doc I have on my desktop, no problem. So I can't say for sure that it has happened when working from my desktop or only when working on the server.

Firefox 5.0 is supposed to have a separaret Twitter tab, but I noticed today that that tab is missing. What is causing this problem?

Firefox version 5.0 has a separate Twitter tab built into this web browser. However, today I have been having problems with launching the Firefox browser. An error message appears, after attempting to launch the browser, which states that the Firefox browser is already running, and that the process needs to be closed or that the computer needs to be restarted. After restarting my computer and launching the Firefox browser, I noticed that the built-in Twitter tab ( near the upper left-hand corner of the browser ) was missing. What is causing these problems?

I'm pretty sure that Firefox version 5.0 has a built-in Twitter tab. Whatever the case may be, I downloaded Firefox version 5.0.1 this morning. I learned that if you right-click on a tab, that a menu box will appear on the screen. One of the options in that menu box is "Pin as App Tab." If I go to the http://twitter.com web site, and then right-click on the corresponding Twitter tab, and then select "Pin as App Tab," then a small Twitter tab will appear to the right of the orange-and-white "Firefox" tab ( in the upper left-hand corner of the Firefox web browser screen ). Then I can click on that Twitter tab and go directly to the http://twitter.com web site. However, when I exit the Firefox version 5.0.1 web browser, and then immediately re-launch it, the separate Twitter tab is gone. Is there any way, within Firefox version 5.0.1, that I can make the separate Twitter tab permanent after selecting "Pin as App Tab"? Thank you for your assistance regarding this matter.

Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than [100] ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry(a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).

Hi,
Our Environment is Essbase 11.1.2.2 and working on Essbase EAS and Shared Services components.One of our user tried to run the Cal Script of one Application and faced this error.
Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than [100] ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry(a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).
I have done some Google and found that we need to add something in Essbase.cfg file like below.
1012704 Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than number ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry (a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).
Possible Problems
Analytic Services could not lock enough blocks to perform the calculation.
Possible Solutions
Increase the number of blocks that Analytic Services can allocate for a calculation:
Set the maximum number of blocks that Analytic Services can allocate to at least 500.
If you do not have an $ARBORPATH/bin/essbase.cfg file on the server computer, create one using a text editor.
In the essbase.cfg file on the server computer, set CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH to 500.
Stop and restart Analytic Server.
Add the SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH command to the beginning of the calculation script.
Set the data cache large enough to hold all the blocks specified in the CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH setting.
Determine the block size.
Set the data catche size.
Actually in our Server Config file(essbase.cfg) we dont have below data added.
CalcLockBlockHigh 2000
CalcLockBlockDefault 200
CalcLockBlocklow 50
So my doubt is if we edit the Essbase.cfg file and add the above settings and restart the services will it work? and if so why should we change the Server config file if the problem is with one application Cal Script. Please guide me how to proceed.
Regards,
Naveen

Your calculation needs to hold more blocks in memory than your current set up allows.
From the docs (quoting so I don't have to write it, not to be a smarta***:
CALCLOCKBLOCK specifies the number of blocks that can be fixed at each level of the SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH | DEFAULT | LOW calculation script command.
When a block is calculated, Essbase fixes (gets addressability to) the block along with the blocks containing its children. Essbase calculates the block and then releases it along with the blocks containing its children. By default, Essbase allows up to 100 blocks to be fixed concurrently when calculating a block. This is sufficient for most database calculations. However, you may want to set a number higher than 100 if you are consolidating very large numbers of children in a formula calculation. This ensures that Essbase can fix all the required blocks when calculating a data block and that performance will not be impaired.
Example
If the essbase.cfg file contains the following settings:
CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH 500 CALCLOCKBLOCKDEFAULT 200 CALCLOCKBLOCKLOW 50
then you can use the following SET LOCKBLOCK setting commands in a calculation script:
SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH;
means that Essbase can fix up to 500 data blocks when calculating one block.
Support doc is saying to change your config file so those settings can be made available for any calc script to use.
On a side note, if this was working previously and now isn't then it is worth investigating if this is simply due to standard growth or a recent change that has made an unexpected significant impact.
