samsung np700z5c-s02ub bios mod add memory and unlock
#1
i have a samsung np700z5c-s02ub laptop. its getting old but is still a very usable laptop other then the limitation of ram. i have bought a 16gb sodimm and when i install it the system doesn't see it and only runs the onboard 4gb but in cpu-z when i check the slot it shows as being there [Image: qho1yLTR#Y66CcPecWVB54-mH3zynu87FHq49SFyadqW8tQamhs4]  https://mega.nz/file/qho1yLTR#Y66CcPecWV...qW8tQamhs4

i have 2 files
one is a cap file from samsung https://mega.nz/file/OwJDWZAa#Tm1o3JFuHb...diFN4z9r3s
the 2nd is a bios dump from fptw64.exe -bios.rom -d https://mega.nz/file/6gxRCAYI#o1Sr1_KX5X...kMd59NNmyg

i am not sure if the onboard 4gb need to be disabled to allow the 16gb stick to be used as i read the chipset is limited to 16gb.
ultimately it would be great to have 4gb+16gb=20gb but 16gb would be better then the 4gb+8gb=12gb that i am limited to now

Thank you again just trying to keep this thing from becoming ewaste

here is a link to the expanded install.exe from samsung that opens in the user appdata folder when you start the bios update https://mega.nz/folder/PpwWkRrK#vng8usiP8RxSflITAZeryA

https://mega.nz/file/OsZyQDDT#I2mJY7ZqRt...vESwp18vTk or  Intel® Core™ i7-3615QM Processor i have been searching the internet and i find conflicting information were like you said there is a limit of 16gb 2x8gb but also on intel's website they are saying 32gb 2x16gb. like i said before i am just trying to give this laptop as long of a life as possible. if it is true that the max memory is 16gb 2x8gb i would like to see the why.

It supports 32GB with four 8GB SODIMMs.
