I messed up really bad!

So as you see by the title of this topic i messed up pretty bad in my eyes.
I am a complete noob at hardware stuff inside the computer so today i decided to look up how to add more ram so maybe i can learn a little more about my own laptop. So i followed the video, i opened the ram slot and i saw the two little prongs, and clicked both of the and the Ram stick popped up, i took out the ram and i layed it beside me. I was then really happy and completely nervous and i forgot how to put it in, so i just did it my own way. I remembered from the video the guy told me to put the ram in a 45% angle and match the notch with the little thing that sticked out, i did that and then i also remembered that he said to push it down with a little force until you hear a click, will, i heard the click but when i put everything back together and turned on my laptop my ram went down from 6gb to 4gb. I don't know what to do guys. My laptop is a Hp envy m6 1105dx with windows 8. I am really nervous about the whole situation.

ok just sounds like you have not put them in properly. thay will only go in one way. put them in at a 40% and push them till you can not see the gold pins any more. if you have to force them its not right thay shoud go in easy no force. look at the ram and were the gap is and then look at the ram banks on the laptop and mach them. it shoud be to one side so you can not put them in upsidedown.
p.s make sure ALL power is disconnected before doing this. also only tuch the sides of the ram. don't put them on carpet or any other static material

  • Broadband speed has been terrible with really bad ...

    Hi, for the past few days i have been receiving a really bad broadband speed, its varies from 0.90Mbps to 5Mbps normally i would be getting around 3.50mbps to 5mbps but lately its been terrible constatly changing. I tested my speed on speedtest.net and was getting a ping of around 100 + and sometimes it will go down to 50 ish. I have contacted BT the other day and they said they would get back to me today but they have not. Also for the past few days my connection has been dropping but since contacting BT that has stopped but im still getting slow download speeds to the point i cant even watch a YouTube video on a low video quality.
    What i want to know is why i am getting so slow download speeds and a very unstable connection?
    Is there a problem in my area? I have no changed any settings messed around with any cables to make my connection drop.
    Thanks for any help.

  • Photoshop CC really bad lagging on new rMBP

    I resently bought a new Retina MacBook Pro 13" with a nice fast 2,8 i7 proccesor and a big chunk of 16 Gb ram. After using it on my older iMac I was exited to use it on my new MacBook. But its lagging really bad. It makes it unusable for me. I don't work with large files and we mostly use it for small UI design. I use a Bamboo Wacom and use OpenGL is on. when turned of its a lot faster but this results in masive graphic bugs.
    Anyone know how to fix this? Because I'm really thinking of switching to Sketch 3 (http://bohemiancoding.com/sketch)

    Well, something is up with your system to make it slow.
    Do you have any third party plugins? Have you tried disabling them?
    Do you have any utilities that would interfere with other applications (antivirus, firewall, etc.)?
    And the "graphics bugs" mean that you have a driver problem which will have to be addressed by Apple.

  • Firefox behaves REALLY badly at random times and I'm worried about it?

    So here's what happens. This happens at random times, unexpectedly. I click on a new link, any link, and suddenly, Firefox blares up, automatically turns to private browsing, and goes to a bunch of random websites.
    Then, it lands on ''www.xnxx<!-- -->.com'',(<sub>'''edit''', un-linked -J99</sub> ) which I have identified to be a pornography website. After that, it suddenly picks on a random porn video and crashes before the video plays.
    This really worries me, because just before this first happened, I had done a quick scan with both Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Pro, and there was absolutely NO problem.
    Not only that, I had gone only to trusted websites.
    I'm a high school sophomore, so this could turn out REALLY badly for me if someone sees this happening and thinks that I'm TRYING to watch that stuff.
    I have already sent a crash report to Firefox and included the website that I crashed in, which is the porn website. I haven't sent any other details, though.
    Could I be getting hacked? I don't think so, because this only happens with Firefox; Chrome, Opera, Maxthon, and IE don't have this problem.
    I'm running Firefox 15.0.1 in Windows 7 x64 (why the crash report said Windows NT x86, I have no idea).
    PLEASE help me fix this!

    On looking at your System Details aside I note that you include a Crash ID.
    That particular crash is probably related to use of Norton software. You may find that you can use the Norton security software without crashes if you disable the '''Norton Security Safe '''feature (Please confirm - or otherwise - that you are using that ). Note I am not suggesting you turn of the security software, just the utility/toolbar.

  • App for Windows 8 are really bad

    The apps Microsoft made for Skype are really bad.
    Any chance for a update so you have some chance of getting to things like call and chat and make it more clear who are online.
    Out of a lot of bad apps for windows 8 this take the cake!!

    Is there a reason "Elaine" (http://community.skype.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/88058) had to edit/moderate EVERY one of the posts here?
    This thread started some time ago, so please correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like the word "sucks" was replaced with "are really bad" in the last 12 hours.
    The only reason I bring this up is because this is censorship and let me tell you Elaine that it is NOT helping Microsoft/Skype's case here!
    If something SUCKS it means it IS REALLY BAD. The word "sucks" is VERY well known throughout the english speaking world to mean this. Any moderation on the grounds that the moderation was done "In deference to international sensibilities" is ridiculous! This stinks of corporate censorship!
    Rather than censor everyone's comments, how about you (the company) just fix the issues and let us know they are fixed OR if fixing them isn't going to happen in the near future at least let us know that you're working on it!
    I have not seen even one official comment by Skype or Microsoft staff regarding this issue! NOT ONE! That implies to me that there is something seriously wrong and its almost definitley not going to be fixed any time soon!
    Perhaps after all these years of being a happy customer it is time to start looking at moving away from Skype to another service...

  • Mail handles .Mac really badly-what's up?

    Since I put my .Mac email account into my Mail application, it has worked really badly and I am considering just deleting off the .Mac account and not using it anymore as it is so annoying. Essentially, having the .Mac account in Mail slows everything else (my other email accounts) down to a ridiculous level. When I check "All", and sometimes when I send even one email, the Activity Viewer shows me that Mail is struggling to open .Mac mailboxes and stuff like that, and while it is struggling to do various things with .Mac, including synchronizing, the other email accounts are held up in the queue (ho hum... very boring). To prevent this, I went into the .Mac account and unchecked the "Include when automatically checking for new mail", but this has no effect whatsoever, probably because I usually check for new mail manually anyway.
    I have two Macs at present, an older G4 flat panel iMac (1.25 Ghz), and a brand new dual core intel MacBook (2Ghz) and the problem is exactly the same on both Macs. Anyone having similar problems or knows a fix to this? Would love to hear!

    There is a setting under the Advanced tab for the
    account preferences to not keep all messages and
    their attachments available for offline viewing but I
    don't use this setting and don't experience the same
    problems.
    To clarify, do you mean that you "do not" keep all messages (etc.) available for offline viewing, or that you "do" keep all messages (etc.) available? At present, I have this option to "keep all messages and attachments available for off-line viewing" checked positive, by default I presume.
    After first creating the account if there
    are a number of server stored mailboxes and messages
    available on the server, the mailbox and message
    synchronization process takes longer than normal and
    the time it takes for subsequent synchronization
    should not be a real long process unless a number of
    changes have been make with server stored mailboxes.
    Odd thing is that I only have one saved message in the .Mac account, and that is a tiny weeny one (about 10K) with no attachments or anything! By the way, since I have just been going through everything all over again, I notice that what really seems to be holding things up (I've now changed synchronization to "manual" on both computers) is when I "Get Mail" and Mail is trying to open the .Mac mailbox - this goes on interminably (as I can see in Activity Viewer).
    Try using the Rebuild Mailbox function on all server
    stored mailboxes. All messages will disappear
    temporarily and the mailbox will be resynchronized
    with the server.
    Sorry for being dense, but I've been all over my Mail application and all over my .Mac settings and I can't find this "Rebuild Mailbox" function. Could you please tell me exactly where I can find this Rebuild Mailbox function?

  • Video quality in scope is really bad and dark

    When I send my sequence from Final Cut Pro to Color, why does the video in the scope area come out so bad where I can barely see anything? Basically the video is nothing like the quality in final cut pro and the picture is very very dark.
    When I see the tutorials online of the videos being sent to color from final cut, the quality is exactly the same and they don't do any adjustment.
    Can someone please help me fix this? I work with AVCHD. Thanks!

    Thanks George.
    Now the quality is not "really" bad anymore, it is bad. ;-)
    The quality got better, but still there is a difference between drawing shapes and cell borders. And the difference is causing problems with customers, who are demanding professional quality.
    Here is a .jpg of the original Excel table. The drawing shape is the outer one, the cell borders are the lines beneath the data. Both line types are very delicat. This is how it should be.
    And this is how it looks after a pdf-print with setting "high quality print" (2400 dpi).
    The outer drawing shape is ok. The thin horizontal lines are twice as thick than before.
    I know, it is about details. But those details make the difference between a professional and an amateur performance.
    Do you have another idea, how to improve the pdf quality?
    Thanks for your help so far, I appreciate it.

  • Screen flickering really bad after unplugging external monitor

    Hello,
    Since I updated my Macbook Pro 13' Retina (inch, Early 2013) to Mavericks, almost averytime I unplug my external monitor or TV, the screen starts flickering really bad. This is the screenshot of the issue. Sometimes you can see all the apps opens, but the "flicker" effect takes over the screen, making it impossible to user the computer. The only way I found to use the compuer again is restarting it. It's really weird.

    Howdy inireugg,
    We've an article that provides a host of helpful information and tips for resolving issues with displays.
    No video or no signal, image distortion, "snow," or flickering
    Check connections
    When using an external display be sure to check the following:
    If you're using an Apple notebook, confirm the AC power cable or adapter is securely connected to the computer and the cable providing power to the display is also secure. It is always good to have your notebook connected to AC power when an external display is in use.
    Confirm display adapters are fully seated in their respective connections and that they are supported models and for the computer and display. Refer to these articles to assist you with adapter compatibility and further configuration information:
    Monitor and Display Adapter Table
    About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
    Apple Mini DisplayPort adapters: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    Thunderbolt ports and displays: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
    Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
    If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
    Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
    If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
    Reset the systemYou can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolutionStart by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.

  • ITunes 11 sounds really bad any fix?

    I noticed that the new iTunes sounds really bad compared to other players like VLC or Quicktime any idea how to fix this.
    I tried to adjust the equalizer and the sound enhancer and no luck, it is definitely not the speakers because the same song sound great with VLC or Quicktime, all I try to download is high bitrate songs like 320 kbps.
    Appreciate any help!

    Hi Doug,
    Not at the moment unfortunately. Apple did use the glass effect shelf dock on the side in the development versions of Leopard, but took it out and only used it on the bottom in the final release because of a few problems with the reflection and stack effects. I'd bet that within a few months they'll be rolling an update out which will give you this option if you really want.

  • IPod lags really bad...

    My iPod is lagging really bad, it takes about 15 seconds to load a song and sometimes just totaly freezes up. It was working fine yesterday but just all of a sudden today it started freezing up. I tried to restore it but now today my computer doesn't see it in iTunes. I went through all of the steps apple recomends but it didn't help.
    Thanks

    it sounds like a hard drive issue to me.. you might be stuck sending it in.

  • Lock button not locking phone and sound thru earpiece really bad

    Hi, have an iPhone 5, within a few months the lock button failed to lock my phone and during a phone call the sound thru my earpiece is really bad distorted and sometimes intermittent. ( not due to signal tho)
    Are these common problems and will apple fix them or give replacement??
    Many thanks

    Well, if only a few months old then you are under the 1 Yr warranty that comes with the device, either contact AppleCare or visit an Apple Retail Store

  • Convertion from pdf is really bad

    Hi !
    First, i m pretty ignorant in making pdf form...
    I need to make an interractive form from a pdf file (25 pages) given by a friend.
    he gave me 2 version of the file, a 'normal' pdf and one in form version (without any calcul or interractivity).
    (but it lacks 3 fonts)
    I tried to make it with Acrobat :
    with both version of the file,
    i c'ant find all the events i need in 'Action' tab when i try to add some code on a textBox like 'change', 'docReady'...
    But the way i can make the form is really good. In fact i only need to add textbox, radiobutton... i don't want to edit text.
    With LiveCycle i create a new document from the pdf and i select interractive. i need to change tooltip, visibility of objects..., wich can t be done with non interractive form (if i understand correctly ?).
    my problem is that the converted file is really bad, the convertion log contains a lot of errors.
    and it will take me a lot of time to correct, adapt it, plus, images are pixelised ( why ??).
    My questons :
    Can i make interractive form without converting the document ? like with Acrobat or non interractive forms ?
    Is there a way to have a source file instead of the pdf ? wich contains images, fields... so there will be no convertion.
    Thanx for reading

    Thanks George.

  • Quality of printout is really bad

    Hi Experts,
    I use the system command "print screen", to print my visual composer cockpit (only tables and forms, no charts).
    Unfortunately, the quality of some printout is really really bad. It seems that VC does some scaling, in order to fit the form to the paper size. But then, the texts are distorted and hardly decipherable.
    As I use BAPIs and special form layouts, I cannot use the printing capabilites of reports, as described in the famous "How To... Export Data from Visual Composer".
    When I use the flash print function (right click, print...) or the browser print function (menu: file, print...) my VC application is not scaled at all and only the top left corner of my cockpit fits on the paper. The rest is ommitted...Nothing helps, I'm frustrated!
    Who can help me? Any Ideas on how to print a cockpit legibly?
    Thank you very much in advance,
       Benni
    PS: Points will be awarded, of course!

    Benni,
    do you hv multiple iViews on a page or all the forms/tables etc are on the same iView? if you're using multiple iViews, you can enable print on each iView and get users to minimize the other iViews on the page that are not being printed, that way you might get a decent-sized iView. also try to hv the navigation panel in a collapsed state by default, so that there is sufficient space on screen.
    in addition, try to scale your iViews during design time such that when deployed they fit within the screen so that users dont hv trouble scrolling/adjusting etc..i know printing is not something done easily with VC, but hope this helps..
