fooling the software

[Diesel]

Have bought 7150 photosmart printer; it says minimum system requirement 64MB RAM; I only have 28MB; how can I fool it into thinking I have 64MB?

When I try to install the driver software, it says insufficient RAM

[stoopid]

Registry hack perhaps? But then your applications may try to write to memory addresses that aren't there... but I doubt even that will work as I believe windows checks for RAM available after each start...

rams cheap, cant you just get more? just my thought on the subject

[Mt_Goat]

If you are running PC133 you can probably get 256MB for less than 20 bucks.

The number 28 makes me think you are running a 486 or some other insanlely old machine, what are the specs?

Typo?

Yeah sorry, that was supposed to be 4GB.

My old PC-XT had a 10MB hard drive!

and here i am complaining that my 1.85ghz athlon xp isn't fast enough. seriously, it's time for an upgrade man, at least buy some more ram. pc133 is dirt cheap these days.

I sure hope that you dont try to print any photos on that computer. One week for a photo and 28mb of ram in the system?

Get at least a 128mb module, 256 is even better.
