Thanks to all who took moment to answer my question about memory T60p-nost helpful. Memory now ordered. [Wonder how long can keep these XP beasts going?]

I tried installing this memory in a T60P-8741 with the 945 chipset and running Win 7 64bit. Never would boot up. Would get 1 beep, 3 beeps, 3 beeps, 1 beep and black screen. Laptop boots fine with its single current 1 Gb memory stick but will not install Win 7 64bit SP1. I downgraded to Win 7 32 bit OS and get the same error beep codes.

Who cares about XP try Win7 64 bit with 4 gig of RAM.... these core 2's fly with it...If someone is doing basic computing these computers will give them years of life.

Until it brcomes an easy target for hackers. Install a good firewall and av.

The reason I upgraded the memory on the T60p was so that I could upgrade to OS from XP to windows 7.MS is offering a deep discount to get users off of XP.I opted to have MOZY back up my entire machine then upgraded the OS then restored all files and favorites from Mozy.

Keeping XP on a system after support drops is a bad idea, besides W7 runs fine on a T60 with a ram upgrade (mine has 3Gb). Add a small form USB flash drive. W7 will ask if you want to use it to speed up the system... Say Yes. I added a cheep 60Gb SSD and my T60 is as fast as my 1Year old I5 Dell (well almost). I also removed the DVD and added a drive expansion bay with a 500Gb drive. I figure its good for another 3-5 Years.I love the fingerprint scanner ... and so does my wife.

I am having post problems with this board and memory. I found links to others having same. Followed troubleshooting from that site and pulled 3 of my 4G Cosairs out, leaving 1 in slot 2 and it booted. I see that the online QVL list is a C9(xmp) rather than the C9b I bought from Amazon.... trusting the "What others are buying" when choosing memory. Maybe I have a bad stick, or three. Maybe not compatible despite the one stick booting. Looks like on Newegg they combine Gskill 16g with the ASUS P8z77-v deluxe. Oh well. Maybe I can return if bad sticks or exchange if not compatible. As much as I spend on these builds from Amazon/NE/TD they should work with me. I am having post problems with this board and memory. I found links to others having same.

This upgrade will work without issue, XP has a limit of addressing between 3 and 3.5GB of memory so this 2GB will be fully recognizable

I've updated my RAM and it was incredibly easy; most online places allow you to look up what memory you will need. I went from the standard 4GB to 10GB (I bought one 8GB stick). There are small screws on the bottom of the laptop (don't lose them!) and then you click out the old memory stick and pop in the new one.I found several videos online that were helpful also!

heh Understood, and much more comforting to know you ran and it passed, three tests. >__>b I'm definitely interested, as this is a great deal for 16GB. Thanks for the quick response!

Thx. Do you need to replace the memory in 2 gb "pairs" due to the dual channel aspect. Crucial's website said yes. Thx in advance

Ok, thanks for all these infos, but I know nothing much about computers except to use them, so I bought a msi u120 because I need to use it for personal office work and web browsing as well as msn chat. I'd also like to install a genealogy program on it. Can anyone tell me if its power will be enough for that. Don't laugh, but I'm pretty lost and I didn't even receive the beast yet. probably sometimes next week. so any advice before I start it and its capacities will be welcome. Don't laugh again, it's the first time in years that I buy myself a computer and my first laptop too.

I had the same exact problem and have pretty much tried everything to resolve with no solution that works 100% of the time. In talking with Crucial, they will exchange the memory even if you didn't buy it direct. But how does one know which memory chips will work without this frustrating problem that occurs even when trying to hybernate or sleep? I've been stalling and hoping that ASUS would update their BIOS and memory handling abilities, but their support is useless for this.

Thank you for you reply.I guess I wasn't clear on what I was asking.Is the notebook upgradeable to 2 GB Ram? [it uses 200 pin 667,pc5300 memory] Is it hard or easy to open the case and get at the memory stick?Will it void my warranty? I'm afraid Crucial can't help me with these questions.

Thanks for the news. One more thing, is it just me or is my computer running slower with my 2gb 667 ram as opposed to the 1gb 800 ram? It seems like it is.Thanks again.

I upgraded the memory to 8 gb. It was not easy. I had to practically take the whole laptop apart. Took about 2 hours. Then again, I am not an IT guy. If you know someone who knows what they are doing, should be easy. Just make sure to get memory specific to this specific HP envy.

Well my Eee Slate is coming today, much like all of you I am patiently waiting to start using this slate after posting in this forum since its infancy and watching nearly every user video, finding every picture of it, and reading about it as much as possible. I want to know what all of you are going to do to increase your storage capacity via either a large SD card and a larger SSD to boost the measly onboard storage. I think we have determined that there are not any 6GB or 8GB ram modules being made yet in that form factor.

Scuttle butt is: T60/T61 will only recognize 3GB max...at least w/ XP. Not sure of MS OS above that. Further, you need to match like types/mfg w/ RAM or afraid probs will arise. See thinkpads forum for more specific info...

I don't have the answer. I spent over an hour between Toshiba and the chip people, went through all their charts, etc., and could not get an answer. Finally I looked at the chips closely and determined that it would fit in the slot (:)) which was progress and bought it. I put it in and the difference in performance was ASTOUNDING! Really, I don't know why computer mfg's don't put max memory in their machines. Making you sweat over upgrades.....well. Anyway.

thank you!!!! also did you buy extra memory for it? was it hard to install it?

Dear Customer, Greetings! 4GB onboard and extendable memory could be to 32GB. Thank you.
