Upgrading components: Will Windows-7 Starter recognize 2 gigs of memory if installed?

Yes, to the memory. I upgraded my Toshiba mini to two megabites(?) last year. I bought battery directly from Toshiba online. Sorry I can't answer your other questions.

I was able to install Windows 7 without issues on this board. I agree with casselkid, I doubt is the board. I'm more inclined to think is a bad RAM. Try installing with only one memory stick, if fails, try another.

That should work just find. Remember that it is the OS that will or will not recognize the size of the drive(s), not the hardware in most cases. But motherboard BIOS might be questioned and looked into just to double check

I had one of these and 2gb was the most it can handle. It came with 1 and I upgraded to 2. I used Windows XP and it was designed to use XP , XP professional or Vista. I am not so sure it has the processor speed or ram to use windows 7,,buy the time 7 came out these were pretty obsolete. Good machine though.

Yes, you do have to hit the F2,F10 for the bios to recognize the new 2 GB module. Otherwise, it will assume it only has a 1 GB module installed.

Just visit www.crucial.com. They have the Crucial Advisor tool which shows all compatible memory, when you pick your specific system off the list. There is also a System Scanner tool that will analyze your system and determine all compatible upgrades. The latter is better if you have no idea about your system specs.

I can't actually answer your question (yet, going to install soon) however since the upgrade to 2gb (via two 1gb chips) is only around $30 here on amazon it seems silly not to upgrade.. also waiting on my memory so I'll post back with my experiences :)

If it comes with two sticks of ram, 1GB each, then going to 4GB would be 2 sticks of 2GB each. Should be the same power. If anything power use may decrease due to more ram available and windows not having to page stuff to the spinning mechanical (power hungry) hard disk.

For ram I got Corsair Memory VS2GSDS800D2 2 GB PC2-6400 800MHz 200-pin DDR2 SODIMM Laptop Memory, works fine. Get 4gb sdhc for ReadyBoost feature in Win 7 Some people got SSD but those cost a lot, I'd rather have a bigger capacity hard drive personally (for movies during travel) For bloatware (it's all the stuff you don't need that comes with a pc, like some players or anti-virus that will expire in 30 days), I just installed a new version of Win 7 using usb stick. Here is a good guide on how to do it: http://www.maximumpc.com/article/howtos/how_to_install_windows_7_beta_a_usb_key Otherwise, if you want to keep Win 7 Starter, just do a search on how to get rid of bloatware. Use ninite.com to get few good apps that can clean up your pc. Uninstall all the useless crap, in msconfig turn off everything at Startup except AV prog and trackpad. There are many good guides out there, specifically for eee family!

You can install a maximum of 16GB RAM memory. The mother board has 2 slots.

Hello. It will vary. You should probably see about 230GB usable remaining space give or take after the install of Windows 7.

1 4GB kit would max the ram capacity in theory, but you can add a 8GB and make the system 12GB. I have seen this work and Windows recognizes this with no problem. Apparently the empty slot can accommodate max 8GB. The system has one empty slot.

Ram is DDR2 only capable of 8gb total 2gb sticks pc6400 motherboard is 64bit capable depending on processor windows 7 works

Yes you can upgrade the memory. If I were to upgrade mine I would use Corsair CMSO8GX3M2A1333C9 or CMSO4GX3M1A1333C9. The Acer Aspire V5 471P has 2 slots and a max total memory of 8GB.

The type of RAM the motherboard can handle is DDR3 up to 2400 with OC. There are 4 slots total. All four slots are in use by 4x 4GB sticks. The maximum support memory is 32GBs. Note: If you wanted to upgrade to 32GBs, you would need to replace all the memory in the system and you would need to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional or higher, as Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit is artificially capped at 16GBs by Microsoft (even though 64-bit systems can support 192GBs memory.)

Check the requirements for the OS you want, in this case Win 7. You will probably be Ok. The RAM in these machines are fairly easy to change out and upgrade.
