T500 Windows 7 64bit only 2.99GB RAM

I have BIOS Version: 6FET8WW(3.11) Is this the 64bit ROM?
Chipset: GM45/GM47.
I used the ISO Image BIOS Uppgrade. If memory serves there is both 32bit and 64bit ROM in the ISO Image. I am thinking, maybe there was installed a 32bit ROM. Bechause, 2.99GB Ram(usabe) usally is a limit to 32bit OS. I have tried to reinstall the ROM, but the installation program says the same ISO Image is already installed.
PcDoctor Dos says the RAM is Passed.
Again, is it the right BIOS version?
Eventually, how do i flash to the right wersion when the installation utility uppgrade stops and states that uppgrade is not nescessary?

Hello tecnic,
It has to do with the amount of ram installed, not the bios version you use.

Want to install windows 7 64bit only partitioned for 20mb in bootcamp can i increase bootcamp partition before installing?

Want to install windows 7 64bit only partitioned for 20mb in bootcamp can i increase bootcamp partition before installing?

Yeah, just open Boot Camp Assistant, restore the hard drive to a single partition and then redo the partitions again. You should have a bare minimum of about 50GB as @The hatter said. You might want to just divide equally, that's usually the easiest thing to do.

Bootcamp Windows 7 crashes only with upgrade RAM

I'm having a bit of an issue with my IMac, 27" 3.2 GHZ 1333MHZ 4 GB RAM.
Bootcamp is working fine with Windows 7 64 bit.
I decided to add 2x4 GB of 1333MHZ Apple RAM.
I've tried two brands now, Corsair and Mushkin.
Both make Windows 7 give me the blue screen of death, claiming memory issues.
If I remove the newly added RAM, problem goes away.
Now here is the strange part, OSX boots up just fine, and shows 12 GB of RAM, everything works.
Its just bootcamp rejects the memory.
Anyone else had this issue?
Thank you!

It seems like Windows doesn't like your Ram.
This wouldn't be a bootcamp issue if it is blue screening under a windows environment.
This may help further assist:

AE CS6 crashes on rendering QuickTitme H264 - AdobeQT32Server (Windows 7 64bit)

My AE CS6 crashes on rendering QuickTitme H264 and it seems to be the issue with AdobeQT32Server.exe
Testing various situation I suppose that the crash happens upon AdobeQT32Server.exe process exceeds 1GB RAM.
Now the crash doesn't happen, but the rendering puts on hold and doesn't continue at all
I'm using Windows 7 64bit with 48GB of RAM.
I have run out of any ideas how to fix this problem. Any help would be grat.

That's really a question for Apple, since it's about how to work past their bug.
I have seen people work around this bug by disabling hyperthreading.
Are you certain that H.264 in a .mov file is what you need? That is very seldom the best choice for output.

Windows 7 64bit 4gb RAM yet only 2.46 usable

Ive read other posts on this, but they all seemed to be people running 32bit OS's.
Ive got 4gb RAM installed, and Windows sees this. I upgraded to Windows 7 64bit and at the start it was using the full 4gb. Something has changed in the last week and it only shows as 2.46 gb usable and 4gb installed. If i disable detection in the bios and use discrete. it goes up to 2.9gb
Can anyone help me as there is 1.5gb being wasted somewhere. I run with switchable graphics set to high performance.

The T500 will for sure show 2.46GB if you're running switchable graphics and a 32-bit OS.
The key point is verifying that the system is indeed 64-bit.

I am going to buy either a Mac Air or Mac Pro Retina 8GB RAM and 256GB. And as I have to still run Windows I will install Parallels 9. As the Mac are both 64bit machines does that mean I need to install Windows 7 64bit ? And office pro 2013 64 bit too?

I am going to buy either a Mac Air or Mac Pro Retina 8GB RAM and 256GB. And as I have to still run Windows programs I will install Parallels 9. As the Mac are both 64bit machines does that mean I need to install Windows 7 64bit or just install 32 bit? (Going with Win7 as I hate Win8). And I will install Office Pro 2013 64 bit too or 32 bit or is that automatically selected by the underlying OS (I use Word, Excel and Access mainly for a membership database of a local club) ? I am not a power user so would appreciate advice on way to go

Again thank you. If I only use word, excel and access in the Win environment and Mac OS for email and safari for internet do I need anti virus software . Ie my connection to the world is mac only and I use office pro only to ruin the club, newsletters, membership database etc. and of course anything I do there can drag/drop to the mac environ to email. That's my understanding anyway. Next will my existing .pst file copy directly into mac mail or do I have to runs translator as I recall reading something about that ages ago when I started thinking Mac

Video Ram loss in Windows 7 64bit (bootcamp)

Hello Mac gurus.
I currently own the latest edition of IMac 21.5" 2.5Ghz Quad-core processor desktop. I had partitioned my HD with Snow Leopard and 32bit Windows 7. While running that, I showed the full 512mb Video Ram on my card. It even showed upwards of 1Gb whenever I did "tests" at canirunit.com.
I recently replaced the 32bit Win 7 with the 64bit version to increase Ram output, etc... However now whenever i run it through the same website it only shows 229mb of Video Memory. I also did the "dxdiag" on the start menu of Win 7 and got the same result.
After calling apple support they said to update the video card drivers, and run a hardware test. Did both (drivers on the win7 side not snow leopard). Hardware came back ok. 512mb as shown on my video card, however i still am only showing the 229mb available video memory when I run the same tests mentioned above. I am also noticing quite a bit more pop in and video lag/low resolutions when playing Arma 2. Graphical issues I did not notice before.
Any suggestions on how to correct this issue, if in fact I actually have one.
Thanks for your help.

Hi, I have same problem with my Sandisk 8 Gb Ultra. I've tried plenty driver but stil didn't work. Then I found this page: http://forums.sandisk.com/t5/All-SanDisk-USB-Flash-Drives/Sandisk-Cruzer-not-rec ognized-by-Windows-7/td-p/233208. They said Sandisk have problem with Windows 7, and you can try their method to make it works. I'm not yet trying it, but I've tried changing sd card with my other sdcard (micro sd actually, with adapter, branded V-GeN) and it works with original Apple broadcom sdcard driver (from bootcamp assistant). So the problem not with Apple or SD card reader, but with Sandisk and Windows 7. So, do above method, or change your sd card, or change your OS, til solution come up with this.
PS: There is other solution. Just open your sandisk card on Mac, then copy your file to Mac partition, then you can open it from Windows 7 (to modify, you have to copy it to Windows partition first). And vice versa.

Windows 7 reads only 2.3 of the 4 gb ram

Dear Sirs
I have 4 GB ram and 2 vga cards
Intel 288 hd graphics
Geforce gt 330m 512 mb
when i installed windows 7 on my macbook pro it only reads 1 graphic which is geforce and only 2.3 of the 4 GB Ram can you help me and tell me what can i do

Did you install the 32bit or the 64 bit version of Windows 7?
The 64bit can address more RAM.
Windows just accessing your dedicated video card is fine, the Intel HD graphics is junky anyway.

T500, from Vista Home 32bit to Windows 7 64bit

Hi All,
Wanted to know if anyone can help me with upgrading my vista home 32bit to windows 7 64bit? My t500 shipped with vista home 32, and I have a windows 7 64bit install cd.
my first instint is to just do a straight upgrade, pop in the windows 7 cd, and go from there. Is that the best way? Or should I do a clean install, format and find drivers. I heard Lenovo doesn't have much bloatware, and that going the upgrade route would be fine.
has anyone tried this yet?
Thanks!

You can't upgrade a Win 32bit OS to 64bit one.
Best to back-up all your stuff (like to a network drive on another computer), boot the computer from the CD and format all your disks when prompted where you wish to install windows.
Most drivers will be avalible off Windows Update only specific ones like the hard drive protection drivers need be aquired from lenovo.

Home Sharing will not work with my Windows 8 64bit with new itunes. All of my Apple TVs will not see my library and my iphones will not function with the "Remote" App. They all did before. Only thing that has changed is new PC/itunes. Any Ideas?

Installed a new Windows PC on my home network. PC is Windows 8/64bit. with latest version of itunes 11.1.4.62 for 64bit. My itunes works, but I can not get Home Sharing to function now. None of my Apple TV's can see my computer library and prompt me to turn it on. All of my iphones, pods, pad, can not use the "Remote" app. When you prompt your phone in Remote App to "add library" and you get the code....iTunes doesnt give you the remote screen where you can enter the code. I have reloaded iTunes, reset my router, updated all devices. You can turn on "Home Sharing" on iTunes, but then it closes and doesnt seem to link my devices like it use to. Also, when the new version of iTunes is up on my PC, you can see the other devices to AirPlay to like you could before. However, I can send items from my iphone to stream to an Apple TV, I just cant link them all like I could before and control the music playing to multiple Apple TV. Growing fustrated. Any ideas, would be helpful.

Cunning1_
You are a legend!! I have spent countless hours uninstalling, reinstalling itunes, playing with firewall settings, reading articles on this problem!! I only have to un-sync my iphone 5 and then the airplay icon magically appeared!!! Maybe I have too many devices syncing via wi-fi, or maybe it is the Iphone syncing??
Whatever - one step and now I can enjoy my music through my house again!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

Why does closing all open windows (15) and leaving only one drop ram usage from 1.5 to 1.4Gb and not more.

Why does closing all open windows (15) and leaving only one drop ram usage by only 100mb from 1.5 to 1.4Gb.
What is in this 1.4 gb ?
I don't care much about ram, It's just that cpu usage spike like crazy by the end.

Hi musicfan,<br />Sorry you are having problems with Firefox. Maybe you should have asked earlier and we could have fixed it.
Reading your comments I do not see that rolling back to an insecure Firefox 22 will actually help you much. You are probably best using IE, unless you have also damaged that.
*[[Export bookmarks to Internet Explorer]]
You should not use old versions they are insecure. Security fixes are publicised and exploitable.
* [[Install an older version of Firefox]]
* https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html
Most others will not be having such problems. We are now able to say that with confidence because after developers missed a regression in Firefox 4 telemetry was introduced so that data was obtained. It may be an idea to turn on your telemetry, if you have not already done so, and decide to stick with Firefox.

Trying safe mode takes seconds. Unfortunatly if you are not willing to do even rudimentary troubleshooting there is not anything we can do to help you.

Install only 32bit version of AX Flash Player for IE8 and Windows 7 64bit

Hi,
For several reasons I would like to install only the 32bit version of Flash Player AX for IE 8 and Windows 7 64bit.
It was possible to do it when the installers where separated but I see no information how to do that now.
It is very convenient for me to have my 64 bit IE 8 browser without Flash that I use to browse and not get annoyed by the flash on the web and use the 32bit IE 8 on youtube, vimeo, etc when flash is necessary.
I hope the option to choose which version to install will get back if it is not possible now.
Please let me know if such kind of request should be made somewhere else as new feature or whatever.
Thank you.

That was the first thing I tried. It either works on both or disables on both versions. Something is messed with the settings as well, or has been made that way on purpose. Also the next thing I tried was to uninstall only the part residing in System 32 (leaving the one in SysWOW64) but the result was both not working after the uninstall. It remained in Programs but wasn't working anymore in both versions of IE 8. So I just put back the latest 32bit version which is not security wise..
