Memory Upgrade HP Workstation 4GB to 32GB -

Hello


I adapted to 4GB long ago however with Adobe applications (bridge, photoshop) loading slowing and so forth I elected to increase the memory to 32GB (DDR2-667 or DDR2-533, Fully Buffered).


First in Cmos - the memory was recognized; then in windows 7 64 bit ; the memory was recognized. And the difference upon booting and logging in was remarkable - until I began to open application. For example - all Adobe applications lauch - and then hang - with 'not responding'. In short after upgrading I am unable to work because of hangs/not responding conditions.


To work I may have to remove all but one memory leaving 4GB. At least I could work - in very slow processes - which is better than no working with 32GB.


Is there a fix that will allow correction so that I can use 32GB memory without encountering multiple not responding conditions? Office works fine - very quick!


Let me know how to fix a harmless memory upgrade - following all conditions expected of HP upgrade methods.

If this needs to be inserted the graphic card is FX 1500 , recommeded by HP for this pc.
Thanks!

Did you use old and new mems together? If so are they the same spec?

Please take a screenshot of Memory tab of Resource Monitor to post here.
Try loading defaults in BIOS (clear CMOS).

Hello
I did a cmos reset to factory default/ here attached is the capture of resource monitor.
The memory are all exact - matching no disparities .
I ran the boot memtest88 -and there were no errors - all pass.
Thanks for any help!
