HP dv6-6c75sa Windows 7 64-bit RAM upgrade

I am running an HP dv6-6c75sa on Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, with an Intel Core i3-2350M processor. My installed software is a combination of 32- and 64- bit compatible.
When I purchased the computer, I installed a RAM upgrade which took the total onboard RAM to 8GB. Due to a system issue which I cannot now recall, a search query informed me that my system would only recognise 6GB of what I had installed.
My computer is now 2 years old, and to extend its lifespan, and help it keep up with a recent software install which it cannot seem to cope with (Native Instruments Traktor 2, and Kontrol S4; I would like to make a new RAM upgrade.
I think that the reason only 6GB of my 8GB installed was recognised, may have had something to do with the 32- vs. the 64-bit system, but I can't be sure.
I know that the maximum RAM for Windows 7 Home Premium is 16GB. What changes could I make now that would allow my system to work at or near 16GB of RAM capacity?
Also, where I have a mishmash of 32- and 64-bit software, on a clean install running 64-bit, I believe that I should be able to get all of my software running again. Are there any traps I should look out for that may hamper this.
Do you think that my processor is the thing that is limiting my RAM capacity?
I would appreciate your input.

Hi @hyfpxm ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion dv6-6c75sa Notebook and concerns with system recovery.
Here is a document on performing a system recovery. Here is a document on troubleshooting issues with performing a system recovery.
Always back up important information before attempting a recovery.
This system supports up to 8 GB DDR3 10600 1333-MHz and I would recommend 2- 4s. Here is a link to the manual page 60 for the memory. If the specs are correct for your memory I would reseat it.
Use the built-in Windows System Information utility to view information on Operating System, CPU type and speed, 32Bit or 64Bit design, and installed RAM memory. The section marked Find specifications using Windows System information.

HPG62-373DX Notebook won't load Windows 7 after RAM upgrade

Hi there. I recently upgraded the RAM in my mother's laptop from the OEM 3GB that was factory installed to a pair of 4GB Crucial sticks that were recommended by both HP and Crucial as optimal upgrades for this model. After installation, the unit will not boot into Windows; instead it loops the Windows System Repair message, but will not load any Windows files and simply continually reboots. If I go into the BIOS, the motherboard is seeing 8GB active, and both sticks pass the memory test with no problems--so the hardware is ok, but the OS isn't properly recognizing the memory.
Any ideas? I'd love any input on this issue. I reinstalled the original OEM RAM, and the system boots as normal. After doing that, I went into the support center and made sure the BIOS is updated to the latest version (it is), so I'm not really sure what might be keeping the operating system from recognizing this memory.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Hello Brian,
Please take a look at this document, which provides information on upgrading RAM for this notebook. Let me know if this helps resolve your issue of the RAM not being recognized by the notebook.
Good luck!

View Solution.

Hi,
Try the following.
First, uninstall Skype and when this has completed, restart the notebook.
When windows has reloaded, download and reinstall the Chipset driver Here.
When the installation has finished, restart the notebook again.
Let windows fully load, then download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp45001-45500/sp45044.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery, plug in the AC Adapter and start the notebook.
Let Windows fully load, then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, restart the notebook again.
Reinstall Skype and see if the Mic now works Ok.

HP Envy 13 1030nr. Windows 7 64-bit. RAM upgrade help.

I just purchased a RAM upgrade for my Envy 13 and I was trying to figure out how exactly to access the memory module. I couldn't find a youtube video for the Envy 13 and reading the maintenance manual provides only partial instructions to access the memory module. It tells you what you need to do (Disconnect the TouchPad cable 2 from the low insertion force (LIF) connector on the system board) but not how to do it without damaging the computer. I don't want to permanently sever a cable or anything so I'm looking for help via a link to a video or more detailed instructions on exactly how to safely access the memory module.
I was under the impression that this would be a quick replacement, but the more I read the manual, the more I think that this is going to be a little more complicated than opening up the bottom and removing the current RAM chip and replacing it with the one I have. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Here is the Manual:
Manual
Memory is indeed on the motherboard and getting there requires nearly complete disassembly. See Page 4-26. Not sure how this qualifies as "easy" and if you have not done this before you should get some help. And yes, keep careful track of those screws.

DV6-2106ea RAM upgrade

Hi,
I recently upgraded my DV6-2106ea laptop from 4GB RAM to 8GB RAM, yet the system only shows it as having 4GB RAM. It has Windows 7 (64 bit) OS so should support 8 GB. I updated the BIOS from F.1A to F.1C but this has not helped. Any advise would be most welcome!
Regards,
Dave

Hi Dave,
You're welcome
First of all, enter the bios menu and set the defaults ( usually f9 or f5 ) and save the change.
If the above has made no difference, remove 1 of the modules and see if the bios recognises it. If it does, try the same module in the other slot and check again. If the module is recognised in either slot, remove it and repeat the procedure with the other module and let me know.

Hello bitak,
I see that you have questions about upgrading the hardware on your HP computer.
I have this link for the product specifications of your computer and it discusses the memory max of your computer which is 8 GB. I'm not sure how the computer would react to an upgrade above the listed max.
Review this document for upgrading your HP notebook. It covers all hardware upgrades and what can and cannot be upgraded.

Upgradeing oracle 9i Windows 32 bit to Oracle 10.2.0.3 Windows 64bit

I have a DB in oracle 9.2.0.5. I have two questios
1 ) How can I upgrade this to Widnows 64 bit oracle 10.2.0.3 without doing an export import.
2) Is it possible to upgrade 9.2.0.5 straight to 10.2.0.3 Windows 64 bit without export import.
My plan is to copy the 9i DB to Windows 10.2.0.3 64 bit server , startup upgrade, then run utlip.sql and utlrp.sql.
Thank you

Just copy the datafiles and upgrade your database directly onto your target system, that'll convert automatically your db in 64-bit :
"+If you are installing 64-bit Oracle Database 10g software but were previously using a 32-bit Oracle Database installation, then the databases will automatically be converted to 64-bit during the upgrade to Oracle Database 10g except when upgrading from Release 1 (10.1) to Release 2 (10.2).+"

Hi, Steve: That isn't the problem. The problem is the memory the OP is using is too high a density. The PC's BIOS sees it fine, but then the PC doesn't work. Happens all the time in HP notebooks with the Mobile Intel Series 5 chipsets. Here are the memory limits of the various editions of Windows, and Home Basic x64's limit is 8 GB. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa366778(v=vs.85).aspx#physical_memory_limits_windows_7

HP Pavilion dV6 with Windows 7 64-bit / reimage failure

I ordered the software and driver media to restore the HP Pavilion dV6 laptop I own to it's original manufacturer's state. Seems like a relatively simple process but near the end of the process I get a recovery failure message! HELP! The failure logs read as follows.

Can anyone help me understand what this means? At this point, I have a formatted hard drive with an unsuccessfully installed windows program.

Upgrade the Oracle Apps from 11.5.10.2 from windows 32 bit to R12 OEL 64bit

Hi Frnz,
We are planning to upgrade the Oracle application from 11.5.10.2 from windows 32 bit to Oracle apps R12 OEL 64 bit.
As I go through the Metalink documents and came to know the below Path to proceed with the R12 upgrade for our scenario (2 phase process).
Phase1 - Upgrade in the source windows OS Machine :
1)Upgrade the Database to latest version of 11G R2 (11.2.0.1/11.2.0.2) [if 9.2.0.8 to 11gR2, refer metalink note 881505.1 & 1265268.1]
2)Upgrade Application from 11.5.10.2 to R12.1.1 in windows Machine
3)Upgrade Application from R12.1.1 to R12.1.3 in windows Machine
Phase2 - Migration Process from windows to Linux:
1)Migrate R12.1.3 Application from *32bit windows to OEL 64bit*. (I could not found the exact document for this Cross Platform Migration)
Note:
As per the metalink note, we identified that, Oracle 11.5.10.2 Application will not support for the 64bit Linux.
Reference:
Migrating to Linux with Oracle Applications Release 11i [ID 238276.1]
Migrating Oracle E-Business Suite R12 from Linux 32-bit to Linux 64-bit [ID 471566.1]
