Presario 4712
I am trying to update a Presario 4712, and donate it to a worthy group. I
want to reformat and reinstall the following: 1. Windows (I have a Legal copy). 2. Sound driver: ESS ES1888. 3. Video adapter: Compaq Presario S3 Trio 64V+ 4. Modem: Compaq Presario 336-VSC I do not know if this unit had a restore disk. I would like to know the type of memory this unit uses, it currently has 24 MB Any help would be appreciated. |

For drivers, go he
http://h20015.www2.hp.com/hub_search...&lang=en&cc=us The 4712 uses EDO SIMMs, 60ns, non-parity. 8MB is soldered on the motherboard and two of the 4 SIMM slots have 8MB SIMMs installed. A few early run units had 4MB SIMMs in all 4 slots. The max SIMM size per slot is 32MB. The PC shipped with A QuickRestore kit consisting of a CD and a floppy disk. These likely are no longer available since the 4712 shipped with Windows 95. HH "Wayne Reynolds" wrote in message ... I am trying to update a Presario 4712, and donate it to a worthy group.
