using 4 gb ram for hp mini 210 n2800

[smithan6]

Recently purchased an HP Mini 210-4000, a.k.a beats audio addition. I got the upgraded operating system Windows 7 Home Premium 32Bit and the upgrade processor 1.86 ghz with the intel 3600 memory upgrade, which is 250 mb of extended video memory. Anyway i was reading around to up my ram from one, to two gigs. I then read about this topic and figured what the heck ill see if I can up it to 4 gigs.

It worked!!! windwos booted right up no problems. The bios, see's the ram and windows says 4 gigs with 2.99 available.

My only concern is what happened to that fourth gig, is that reserved for the operating system? Anyone know?

Hi:

Most of it probably went to the video adapter.

You can also check this one setting in msconfig...

Run msconfig, go to 'boot' tab, click 'advanced options', and uncheck 'maximum memory' if it is checked.

Reboot and you should get more usable memory.

Hi, this is not adapter - bios is bugged and roughly locked. I unlock insyde bios and  compilled now. This works beautifully!

Sorry for my poor English
It is possible usage 4 GB RAM and unlock x64 locked instruction... You have to download some tools eg.:
DmiFit, ezh2o2, phoenixtool207, decrypt the bios, patch module microcode update e.g from ASUS Eee PC 1225C, and flashig hp mini now. PAE working perfect, x64 working perfect. You may be modified slice

Many of the HP engineers are young and most come straight from college. Many of them are even great engineers. School does not teach good coding habits though, but everyone knows bad code when they see it.

Hello!

Thanks for the info! I'll have to upgrade mine from 2GB to 4GB. Mine runs W8 Pro x64 just fine, but needs the extra RAM.

64-bit OSs run GREAT on the Mini 210 - even W8. You'll need to implement a registry hack to use Metro on W8, which requires 1024X768 minimum resolution...

Funny... Mine runs 64-bit Lubuntu 12.10 just fine.

Hello there,

I have had an HP Mini 210-4000 (bought in France) running on Win7 Starter for the past 2 years.

It has always been more than snail slow and I am getting really sick of it as my wife keeps telling me it's my fault...

My question is quite simple: what is the best solution ?

- RAM upgrade to 2 or 4 Gb ?

- how to do it ?

Cheers
