As for 64bit, you will have to install a 64-bit version of Windows XP. I tried installing Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit and it showed all 4GB of RAM now. Problem is the available device drivers for the 64-bit OS. @Rajiv – yes, a 1+2GB RAM would make sense but to get the benefits of dual-channel from the RAM, both sticks must be identical.

Else if its only effectively using 3GB it a better bet to go 2+1 How do you find out if WindowsXP is 64bit or not. As per the properties... of My Computer its Just says XP 2003 Service pack4. So I assume its 32bit Thanks for you responses:) @Yuga oh ok! but does that mean you have effective 4GB RAM ( and just that it doesn’t show up in the system info).

I had 512 default. Added 1 GB of 2 separate upgrades. Since it had 2 slots. I have 1GB in each. Wondering if this can take 2+1 = 3GB ram or even better 2+2=4GB. Would it be as simple as go> buy> upgrade or is there something to watch for. Any limitations for upgrade. Anyone knows? Thanks Any idea on the Maximum RAM one can upgrade for a V3000.

I too have a V3000 and a Nokia 3230. I installed the latest Bluetooth Software from the Compaq site ( called HP Integrated Module with Bluetooth Wireless Technology Software). I can now use BT without turning off Wireless. Also the Handfree feature of the BT works! I can answer ny calls without reaching for my handset...right here on my V3000. Thats pretty fun!. only that the Software is like 40MB Link: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-41446-1&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&product=1817059&os=228 Try it!
