bios
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

 Hello

 

I just  installed  on this machine  compaq presario c700,  windows 10 pro 64 bits which is BIOS limited to 2BG RAM. 

Is there a BIOS update that allows for 4GB RAM or more?  If so, where may I find it along with installation instructions.

I bought 4 Go but it don't work

Can we put any HP bios to try ?

why not ?

a bios recent 3 or 4 years old or more ?

No, the support for that model was withdrawn a long time ago and no updates have been issued for many years. There is no BIOS update allowing 4 gigs of RAM. It will likely run 3 gigs OK, however.
