512MB - not, in Compaq Presario 7461 by
Paul D.Smith
Added 512MB to this machine. BIOS counts up to 128MB then red COMPAQ logo
on screen goes awry and machine locks up. Any suggestions? Memory seems to
match Compaq specifications (although they're vage on their website!).

Adding Memory to Presario 900 by
Clark
I am trying to add additional memory (256m) to a Presario 900 Notebook.
Using PNY PC2700 (as recommended at their website) modules, the computer

It boots normally if either the new or old modules are inserted. ...

switching HD by
Al
If I take a hard drive from a Gateway (Essentials, running ME), and put it
into a Presario 5000, it apparently might or might not run.
BUT, is there any danger to the hd in trying? Could anything on the hd become
overwritten, or would the bootup just fail? Thanks.

Explain the symptoms. If the hard drive was previously used in an NT, 2000 or
Linux system, the old partitions must be deleted and new ones created and
formatted before installing Windows. Is the hard drive known to be
defect-free? Did you run diagnostic tests of the drive? ... Ben Myers
