HP dv7t CTO Corei7, Win7 . . . can this notebook run TRIM on SSD

I have a new HP dv7t CTO Notebook, Core-i7, 64bit Win7, 128GB Crucial SSD-SATA III.  I also have a different, smaller SSD installed in the 2nd drive bay for data storage.
I have attempted to enable TRIM for the 128GB SSD with no success.
QUESTION:  Can this notebook support TRIM ?
QUESTION:  Could the trouble be that I have a 2nd SSD installed ?
Thanks for your help.

  • Can this laptop run After effects well?

    Hello,
    I have acer aspire 5742g laptop, i5 480m(max 2.93ghz), Geforce 540m, 6gb ram and slow 5400rpm HDD
    After effects runs quite slow if I do something more advanced so I think its time for upgrade.
    I found this quite cheap for specs it provides
    Asus N56JR
    Intel® Core™ i7-4700HQ Processor (6 MB Cache, 2.4 Ghz)
    8 GB DDR3 - 1600 MHz
    GeForce GTX 760M GDDR5 2GB
    1TB HDD 5400RPM(I will buy ssd later)
    Notebooks & Ultrabooks - N56JR - ASUS
    Will this laptop be able to handle after effects good enough?

    That would be better but you could use a bunch more ram. After Effects is a professional app with tons of capabilities. The more complex the project the higher the demands are on the system. If you want AE to run quickly when you work on extremely complex projects and you want to run on a laptop then you need a professional workstation grade laptop not a consumer model. Dell and HP make them, Apple makes the MacBookPro R which becomes a workstation grade laptop when you max it out. Simply put, buy the most powerful laptop with the most memory you can afford, make sure the company provides excellent customer service and get a long warrantee - or take your chances with a consumer grade laptop.

  • Can my notebook run Premiere Pro CS4?

    Hey guys,
    I'm new here. I was wondering if my notebook could run Premiere Pro CS4. Regardless of the requirements on adobe.com, could my notebook still run it ok?
    Specs:
    Dell Studio XPS 16
    Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 - 2.4 GHz, 3 MB cache, 1066 MHz FSB
    4 GB DDR3 Dual Channel RAM 1067 MHz
    ATi Mobility Radeon 4670 - 1 GB
    320 GB 7200 RPM
    1920x1080
    Tell me if I need to add anymore specs.
    Thanks in advance!

    Rak, I run Production Premium CS4 in a pinch on my laptop:
    Dell E1705 (from 2006)
    T7200 2.00 gHz Core2Duo
    4GB Ram (only 3.4GB seeable on Vista Ultimate 32-bit)
    256mb Nvidia 7900 GS
    320GB 7200rpm drive
    eSata LaCie external for media
    Photoshop CS4 survives, Premiere stutters along but does run. I've taken 5D Mark II clips and used Encoder to create a few different formats and burn a DVD. So your late mode XPS 16 should fare well. Are you running 64-bit, and can you up the ram to 6GB? That would help tremendously. I would seriously consider Windows 7 64-bit when it comes out in October, I've been on it for 2 months (RC version) and it is superbly stable, walks Vista to the dock.
    BTW, I did realize I couldn't survive on my laptop, and since Adobe allows two installs, I just built an i7 rig with 12GB ram and Windows 7 64-bit and a WD 10K drive. The difference is obviously huge, but in a pinch my laptop can pull me through.

  • Can this pc run dayz?

    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/iBuyPower---Desktop---​8GB-Memory---500GB-Hard-Drive/6980021.p;tab=specif​...
    or this one
    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/CyberPowerPC---Gamer-U​ltra-Desktop---8GB-Memory---1TB-Hard-Drive/6897999​...
    also cant seem to find out what powersupply they come with any of you happen to know?also which one do you guys think is better deal or the better pc.

    Hi bobdole,
    Either computer should be able to play ARMA2 or DayZ without too much trouble at all. The IBuyPower Desktop has a 350W supply. I'm having a little more trouble finding out what the CyberPower is using; I'll let you know if I can dig something up.

  • Hey can this os run on a amd athlon ii cpu

    i want to know if this os will work an a amd proccessor

    If you are planning on building a computer to run OS X then forget it.
    Besides being illegal, To run OS X on non-Apple hardware is a hack which is both unreliable and insecure.

  • Can this script run faster?

    Hello,
    The User dictionary does not always seem to work properly. The workaround is a script that creates discretionary hyphens for certain words.
    The following script first deletes all discretionary hyphens in a document being converted from PageMaker to InDesign. It then searches the document for 1900+ words and inserts discretionary hyphens in those words. The script has two arrays with that many elements, one for the words to be searched for, the other with the discretionary hyphens for those words. The script works fine but it takes about a minute to cycle through a 100 page document and 1900+ words.
    Is there a way to re-write this script so that it goes faster? Just curious.
    Thanks,
    Tom
    #target InDesign
    app.scriptPreferences.version = 5.0;
    var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
    var discrecHyphen = theGrepChanger(myDoc,"~-","");    
    if(discrecHyphen.length > 0){
         alert("I just deleted "+discrecHyphen.length+" discretionary hyphens.");
         }//end if
    else{
         alert("There were no discretionary hyphens in this document.");
         }//end else
    var countWords = 0;
    var numWords = "";
    var wordsChanged = [];
    var arrRawWords = ["humongous","array","of","thousand-plus","elements"];
    var arrHyphenWords = ["hu~-mon~-gous","ar~-ray","of","thousand-~-plus","el~-e~-ments"];
    for(var i =0; arrRawWords.length > i;i++){
         var numWords = theGrepChanger(myDoc,arrRawWords[i],arrHyphenWords[i]);
              if(numWords.length!=0){
                   wordsChanged.push(arrRawWords[i]);
                   }//end if
              countWords +=numWords.length;    
         }//end for i
    alert ("I just added discretionary hyphens for " +countWords+" words.\r\rSweet, huh?!");
    //*****functions*******
    function theGrepChanger(docRef,grepFindIt,grepChangeIt){
         app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
         app.changeGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
         app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = grepFindIt;
         app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo = grepChangeIt;
         var arrGrepFindIt = myDoc.changeGrep();
         return arrGrepFindIt;
    }//end theGrepChanger

    OK, it's not the arrays. If you turn on the ESTK's profiler, you get this data:

    I wrapped your script in a function() {} to see if it would report times in the array lookups, so it doesn't. Perhaps it's being optimized out. Anyhow, it spends all the time in line 42, which is the mydoc.changeGrep(). Oh, the document -- I placed Alice in Wonderland in 12pt Minion Pro Regular on 5.5"x8.5" pages, and then used as my raw words the first 1900 words in /usr/share/dict/words and as their hyphenation pairs inserted a ~ after every letter 'c'. Takes about 46 seconds to run.
    You might also think it'd run faster if you opened the document with app.open(File("alice.indd",false) so it shows no window. This seems sort of true, but then ID crashes on the 872nd word ("accept", hyphed as "ac~c~ept"), probably one of the few words in my hyphenation list that actually shows up in Alice. Oh well... It also doesn't seem much faster -- takes about 20 seconds to get to 872, which seems about the same time as with the window open.

  • Can this train run any faster...?

    Hello virtual suggestion givers!
    Everything's working pretty ok when I enter small values while instantiating Train class, the thing is that when I enter large values about lets say
    new Train(5,96,5,10) its giving me IndexOutOfbounds exception or acting weirdly.
    I think there might be some problem in my Train class...
    should ArrayList be used instead of LinkedList?
    what's the flaw in the code?
    Is there anything redundant in this code?
    I had lot's of time this time in my hand, so I didn't have to come in here frequently.

    Thanks! Your code is essentially a microbenchmark testing the performance of sun.nio.cs.US_ASCII.Decoder.decodeLoop() and encodeLoop(), with ~35% and ~30% spent in those two methods respectively. I have verified the behavior (i.e. Sun is faster than JRockit). Due to the microbenchmark nature, it may not affect a larger running program, but it may merit a closer look regardless. I have forwarded to the JRockit perf team for analysis.

  • My 2 notebooks running XP will no longer detect the BEFW11S4 WAP, what can I do?

    My 2 notebooks running XP will no longer detect the BEFW11S4 WAP, what can I do?
    The connections just stopped yesterday. Both laptops work OK when connected by ethernet cables and my main PC running XP64 connected also by ethernet is not affected.
    Both laptops can see my neighbour's wireless network and worked OK with my son-in-laws network last night when I took them over to his house.
    Can I assume that the "wireless component has died?
    Any recommendations for a direct updated replacement?
    I'm currently connected to NTL broadband but may at sometime switch to Sky broadband in the future but I understand that I would not be able to do this with my NTL phone line.

    Thanks for the comments Charrie21,
    SSID Broadcast is enabled,
    Of the 3 leds on the front left:
    WLAN ACT is not illuminated
    WLAN Link is illuminated [According to the instruction because it is connected to a cable modem],
    POWER is illuminated.
    Of the 3 leds on the front right:
    LINK is illuminated,
    ACT is not illuminated,
    Diag in not illuminated.
    The router has been reset  several times.
    SSID has been changed several times
    Channel number has been changed several times
    WAP was previously 64BIt and has been changed to 128Bit
    Firmware version is the same date as currently on the Linksys web sute for this model.
    I am thinking the "wireless" component is dead.

  • Satellite P200 1EE - can this output to 1080p via HDMI?

    HI
    My first post on this forum.
    I recently bought this notebook and have connected it to my LCD TV at home. However, I can't seem to get 1080p via HDMI only 1080i (my TV is capable of accepting 1080p through HDMI). Anyone know if this is possible? (I have updated the latest display drivers from Toshiba).
    Also whilst watching movies, I am noticing a lot of grain/noise on the notebook screen. Is this normal or is it a defect? I was watching Transformers HD DVD last night and could see loads of noise not only during dark scenes but generally throughout the film.
    Any help will be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Shak.

    Hi Shak.
    It helps that you've ensured your LCD tv supports 1080p. For this resolution you have to check in your graphic card driver catalyst a needed option. Open that control center and look for dvi settings and uncheck the "reduce dvi frequenzy on high resolution displays" option. 1080p should work now.
    For the grainy/noisy thing with the Transformers HD-DVD. I don't think it is a defect or something like that. Just put in another movie and see if the picture quality is better or not. Quality differs from movie to movie.
    Check it out and give me a quick answer if it worked.
    Regards,
    Joey

  • Hi. my MacBook pro went off without me turnng it off. i tried turning it on again, but it wouldnt come on. i also tried doing the SMC thing, no avail. please any other thing to do ? (This notebook is still very new for anything to be wrong with it)

    hi. my MacBook pro went off without me turnng it off. i tried turning it on again, but it wouldnt come on. i also tried doing the SMC thing, no avail. please any other thing to do ? (This notebook is still very new for anything to be wrong with it).
    There is no way I would do the smc thing with a laptop that won't come on.

    If it's new and you're anywhere near an Apple Store, take it in. If it's less than 14 days old you can exchange it. If it's more they'll repair it for you.
