i have fix that.
i think i was soldier error.
i have launched mini windows xp from a cd
and there i could see one IDE drive with full access
and a CF card (in bios not present) with full access
so it worked Wink

what with the second RAM socket what must i only solder it on the board ? or something more to do ?

sample for free with shipping :=)

Oh, very good, you fixed it..!
Bad solder connection Smile


Is that link for the RAM socket you wanted to show me?

***EDITED*** ---Sept 20th 2014 ---

This socket is not the correct size ... stabilizing Tab to Tab.
But according to member krzysiek841 if you bend the tabs outward
the socket will fit.

But using anything OTHER than a Hot-Air solder device to solder it,
will be VERY HARD TO DO, and WILL mess-up the board
He found this out, when a solder-bridge stopped the system from booting

It was found, and fixed by him, and now works well.
Read on to see more info Smile


The 2nd RAM socket will need soldering on the socket, yes, but is best to use a SMD Hot-Air soldering tool. If you don't have one of those, it will be difficult to do it.

A standard soldering iron will make a mess of the board.

yes i was the ram socket and the cf socket

i don't have an air gun but good soldering skills i supose Razz
will try without. When it doesn't work will still have a second ram socket (i have ordered 2 pcs. from te connectivity)

will the 5730 see 4GB RAM ? 2x KVR800D2S5/2G
must i solder any smd capacitors or resistors ?

and about the mini pci express card what can i put in there ?
and about the pci express x1 what graphics will be good (x1 socket)

thanks Smile

.. Yes I'm using a 2GB in one of my sockets.
It may even work with 2x 4GB RAM Modules too.
The DataSheet for the chipset inside the T5730 says it supports total of 8GB,
but I didn't have a 4GB module to try that.

I hope you are very careful soldering that socket in, it will be very difficult doing it with a standard soldering iron. Smile

I was able to view the links now...
They were doing site maintenance before... Wink

I can view this PDF from the site
http://www.te.com/commerce/DocumentDelivery/DDEController?Action=showdoc&DocId=Customer+Drawing%7F1981287%7FB%7Fpdf%7FEnglish%7FENG_CD_1981287_B.pdf%7F1981287-4

And this link to the socket on that site, now...
http://www.te.com/catalog/pn/en/1981287-4?RQPN=1981287-4

It looks like you have found the correct socket, and a distributor selling it.
**** Edited... socket is too short Tab To Tab
Needs tabs bent outward, according to krzysiek841
(see edited post before) ****

WELL DONE...THANKS..!!! Cool

You added this to your 1st quote, later...
I'll answer it now...

I don't use the added Mini-PCIe socket on the back of the motherboard.

I'm using the HP PCIe x1 riser-card from the HP PCI expansion kit,
with the back plastic piece cut off the x1 socket...
so I can put in a x16 graphic card, that works in x1 mode.

Another user here called T5735 uses that Mini-PCIe socket
and he has a Broadcom HD Decoder card for his graphics.
HD Decoder Broadcom BCM70012 BCM970012 Crystal HD Decoder AVC/VC-1/MPEG-2

Check the posts earlier in this thread for other auction prices. Smile

ok
i'm building a small pc with many options and diferent connection types (usb, rs232, serial, lan, etc) a smart card reader will fit to it Smile and hdd 40GB a CF 32GB with 800x speed index and a graphics card

a mini pci-e socket is already there.
the problem is to wait for every part ...

when it's done i will post some pictures of the machine Smile

That's nice, wild build, best of luck to you. Wink

I also forgot to answer one other question you added to a quote...
about if any caps or resistors need to be added to the board, for the 2nd RAM socket.

I honestly do not know.
Sorry I can't answer that for you.
But maybe it won't need any, because all the resistors and capacitors are on the RAM module.

By the way, thanks again for finding a distributor for the RAM socket
VERY NICE FIND, by you.

Everyone interested in adding that 2nd RAM will thank you for finding it.
Cool

Great find on the CF and RAM slots. I just requested a free sample of both. I had actually ordered some super cheap CF card readers from china to try to desolder the card reader off of and put on the board but I guess I will just use them as practice with the hot air gun. Laughing I will be home later today and will try to take the thin client apart and show all what I have done to it.

Hi...
Ha ha... Holy shit... How many of us will be requesting FREE samples? Shocked

What did you tell them for project info, and company?
Ha ha..!

I could have sworn I also saw a distributor selling them for under $8 several years ago.
Now DigiKey and other distributors list them for $18 and $20

Oh well, I hope to get mine before the RUSH of samples hits them.

I was just honest and told them straight up I was looking to upgrade the memory and to add a CF card slot of a HP thin client. I did add something like "if this works it could be marketable as a kit" etc just to make it seem legit even though I would never do that.

Laughing
I actually have a legit design business, but recently closed my website.
No one was using it Rolling Eyes

I still have a legit registered tax ID number if they ever need to see one.

I'm waiting for them to authorize the sample request.
I hope all the other requests don't make them delay it.
Very Happy

Hi krzysiek841

I forgot to also tell you, that Mini-PCIe slot, on the back of the motherboard can also use a SATA III card controller, if you don't want to use the IDE slot.

But if you need a HD graphics controller, then that mini-PCIe connector can just be for the graphics card like user T5735 has.

Unless you can also find a COMBINATION graphics and SATA controller. Very Happy

But, Seeing how well you did finding that 2nd RAM and CF sockets from that US distributor, I don't doubt you may also find a mini-PCIe and SATA III combination card too!

yeah

i told them that i have no company and doing an upgrade of the tk which will be later a home media center, but i won't be a media center Razz
the aproval was don't know 2 or 3 days. shipping fed-ex from US

i forgot to tell that the cf card slot don't fit 100% because it's to long and it looks a little bit out of the case but with the plastik cover wont nobody see it. i have made the hole for the cf card in the case a little bit bigger sideways and unscroved the I/O cover to mount the motherboard. but i wasn't hard to do that.

the RAM socket should come to me within 2 days. i will write if it fits.

Hi T5735 I forgot to ask you, did you ever solve the USB port issue with your wireless USB adapter card?

You didn't answer if you had it connected to a soldered cable on the internal USB sockets, or to the China USB hub device.

Plus, have you tried it on one of the 'external' USB ports not used on your T5730 (you did say it worked on your T5740)

Sorry to be so nosey but it's an issue not solved, and I can't sleep not knowing. Rolling Eyes Wink

if somebody loks for the mini pci-e

http://www.mouser.de/new/molex/Molexminicardconn/

i think it should be good



sorry my mistake a ihave an other cf card slot
this cf comes from other sample store Razz

so i think these two (CF and RAM) shpuld fit without any other extra work

That's nice Cool looks very good.
I didn't need a CF card, I'm looking to add a SATA III controller, maybe later.

If you ever get, or if you already have, a 4GB RAM module, and can test it on the T5730 please tell us if it worked. I just have 2 of 2GB modules, but the DataSheet of the chipset says it supports up to 8GB (2x 4GB modules)

When I purchased my RAM I was using windows XP pro 32-bit, and it just supported 4GB total (actually 3.5GB) Smile
Now I use windows 8.1 pro 64-bit

I was stupid...I should have gotten a 4GB module, but was told the T5730 only supported 2GB, before I saw the chipsets DataSheet. Rolling Eyes oh well..!

I am pretty sure it will work with more than 2gb because that polish site I posted earlier showed where a guy soldered on a second slot and was using 4gb of ram and they acted like it worked.

i have not a single 4GB RAM sorry ...

i have read the polish forum (i can polish Razz)

they actually installed 2x 2GB RAM but they write that in 32bit system goes only 3,5 GB (its normally) and installation of a 64bit system ends with blue screen. they write that the first socket supports a 2GB RAM, in the second socket goes 2GB RAM too, but together 2x2GB RAM they have a problem.
they posted a link with bios and they think the bios could have a limitation ...

but 2GB + 1GB is no problem at all ...

I would hope, and think so...
based on the chipset DataSheet alone, but if that other site in Poland
already had someone succeed with it, even better Cool

I hope it wasn't an 'act' ... Laughing or lost something in the translation.

Hey, T5735... What about this post...

Aaahhhhh!!!! Shocked

That sucks, if it's true..!
The entire point of getting the second RAM socket sample is to use at least 2 of 2GB RAM modules.

Maybe they soldered it wrong, with solder bridges.
If they used a standard soldering iron, it's very possible..!

Sorry I didn't catch the second question. Everything works perfectly on the external USB ports it is only when I move stuff to the internal that they do not work. I did directly solder the usb cable onto the hub just for the xbox RF card but the IR sensor and mini 150 usb wireless dongle I just put them into the two slots directly and they only work when they feel like it. They all work 100% of the time when I use the external USB ports however. The RF card soldered to the USB hub works 100% of the time when I plug it into my Win 8.1 desktop and Win 7 laptop as well.

Maybe those internal USB ports have limitations on them, or yours may be faulty.
It wouldn't hurt to now plug something into it, so it activates, then try to uninstall that ports driver, thru the device manager, and reboot to let it reinstall the USB ports driver again.

Maybe it has a 'glitch'.

Hey...have you seen what krzysiek841 wrote: regarding the polish site and the 2nd RAM socket?

Maybe they didn't need those resisters, and it's limiting it somehow.

Since you speak polish, can you join the site and the conversation, and ask what resisters they added?

If you can, you can give them the link of our thread too.
We can join sites, to discuss what's going on with the second RAM socket.

I have a 64-bit OS and don't want a BLUE SCREEN...!!! Laughing

I'm also wondering what BIOS version they have.
I think the latest is 2.02 or 2.04, ... I'll need to look it up to be sure

I'm also wondering if there's any difference between the USA BIOS and if there's a 'Polish' variant to it.
With HP, anything is possible.

It's possible they gave up on it, or just didn't have any other things to try.

Maybe your post will stimulate them again. Cool

Thanks for posting there.

I updated all of mine with a USB bootable DOS key when I got them to the newest bios. Here is hoping that maybe the USA bios will allow it.

Me too, once I saw it was available 4 years ago.
I'm hoping there's a difference between country BIOS versions.

Maybe they can also use the USA version if that's the case.

If not ...it sucks large stale putrid fish eggs... Crap...!!!

I'm also hoping they put resisters not needed, this way it can be removed for them, and may work. Or they have solder bridges, if they didn't use a Hot-Air solder station...can always be fixed..!

If we both try it, and it works for us,...any of those possibilities may be why theirs isn't working.

But if ours also screws up... Even with our hot-air soldering stations and USA BIOS, and no resisters added...I'm going to cry...big time.

---- EDITED... It seems like the same file ... Sad ----

I just noticed something about the BIOS they mentioned on the polish site.

It doesn't seem to be a full version file size from the one on the USA HP site...unless the polish site was just mentioning the actual BIOS Binary file, and there's more un-needed stuff in the full 1.5MB file on HP USA.

Here's the translated text from the polish site...

Hi, with the system 32 or 64 bit, there is no logical behavior.
August also seems to me that it is because of BIOS, was enough to can a small edition but in this topic I'm not good Sad.

However, with 3 Gb RAM system easier whizzes Smile

Pasted BIOS file can anyone think of something;)

I'm going to need to un-compact the file again to see if the above named BIN file is the same.
If not, it may be different from the USA version.

Maybe I should have waited to post this until I looked at all this...but I won't be on my T5730 for a few hours yet, and I wanted to let you know what I noticed before then... Sorry if I'm wrong...but we shall see.

I took pictures of the thin client and wouldnt you know it I forgot to take pictures of the IR sensor and RF board that I removed to get the pictures. Sad Here is a album where you can see where I drilled out the factory mounting bracket studs on the back to give me room to place the IR sensor board, USB hub and RF board under the motherboard. You can also see where I sort of butchered the side where the internal USB ports go. I ran out of cutting wheels for my dremal tool so I went out in the shop and chucked up my air cut off tool I use for welding to my big 80 gallon compressor. Shocked You can also see what the broadcom card and the little 1.8" 4200 rpm hard drive looks like and where I put the capacitor on it side. I wanted to put the hard drive under the motherboard but it was just to thick. Finally you can see the USB wireless adapter I used with a rp sma extension cable to put the antenna in the factory stock location and routed it inside to the USB adapter attached to the internal USB port. This setup works just fine when plugged into a external USB port and it works in exactly this configuration mounted inside in a 5740 as well but for some reason it only works when it wants to in a 5730.

Wow, that's a LOT of work cutting the metal case, on that side. Smile

I'm wondering if I should post the photos on how I modified the power connector for the DIN 4-pin to the motherboard, from my 16 Amp PSU, but compared to what you did in modifications (metal work...etc..) I don't know if mine would be as interesting. Rolling Eyes Smile

Nice job... T5735

Well... I verified it. Sad
Unpacked the 1.5 MB file, and as the subject line says...that's the one.
So I only hope they may have made a solder error on the 2nd socket,
or the resistors they put on, aren't needed, or in the wrong places and may be messing it up.

I once saw a utility that let you change stuff in a BIOS or .EXE file,
without actually needing to re-compile it again,
but it may only have been for changing variables or other simple stuff.

This was around 5 or 10 years ago. ..
I doubt it was upgraded for 64-bit or windows 7 or 8.1
... But I'd have no idea what it was called anyway.

So whoever is first to receive the sample new RAM socket,
and solder it on cleanly, will be the one to know, for sure. Confused

I'd like to find out what resisters they tried adding, and where...!
I may be able to trace the memory module or MoBo wiring to see where it's connected
(..what part of the circuit it's attached to could reveal if it's needed and correct..)

Oh well... Time for bed..!

----
EDITED...added info...
I just thought of something...
I'm wondering if the speed of the Kingston memory is making theirs mess-up

Maybe they have one with the faster Hynix chips, and one with the slower chips.

Or two modules of the slower chips...
...I'm not sure if that may make a difference, but it's another factor to consider.

I wonder if they know the ones with the Hynix chips with FP-S6 in the separate chip #'s -
on that same number Kingston module is faster 400MHz (800MHz) speed,
instead of the non-Hynix at 300MHz (667MHz) FP-S5

You can link them to my post mentioning the difference in RAM chips on the module...
http://www.phoneservicesupport.com/post77646.html#77646
Kingston part# KTH-ZD8000B/2G

I'm tempted to buy these 4GB Crucial brand modules,
just to try at least one before getting the second socket... Razz

Hi, I didn't see this edited quote you made, till later, (now)
and took a look at the link...
http://www.lmc.com.au/products/Notebook_Accessories/HP/575556/HP_t5730_t5735_Expansion_Module_[GZ286AA]

The photo doesn't match what it should be, but the part# is correct.
The photo they used is from the T5710 I think Smile

You can ask them if they can offer refunds if they send the wrong item,
but if it's the correct part# just with the wrong photo online...
it could be what you want, and need.

Maybe they can take a photo of the actual box with riser-cards.

Make sure it has both riser-cards in it. Smile
Not just the one PCI without the PCIe like you have now. !

The other link is still not working. Sad

I think the best one is ...

http://www.ebay.de/itm/Club-3D-Radeon-R5-230-PCI-EXPRESS-X1-Graphics-Video-Card-1GB-GDDR5-PCI-E-DVI-/111446029528?pt=UK_Computing_Computer_Components_Graphics_Video_TV_Cards_TW&hash=item19f2b374d8

But you'll also need a better power supply, minimum the 8 Amp one I mention earlier in this thread. (No mod of the power connection needed)

The specs of the graphics card auction page says; minimum of a 400 watt PSU, but my card also suggested minimum of a 300 watt PSU as well, and I'm using it with my 192 watt PSU - power requirements go up when the 3D games are played, using more graphics engine power...but just playing HD videos take minimum power, hardly anything.

If you were able to verify that the Australian company has the correct ThinClient expansion kit, you can always modify the PCIe x1 connector (cut away the back plastic on the PCIe x1 socket) so a x16 card will also fit, it will allow you to get ANY cheap x16 card using it as x1 ...like I have...(see my signature)

I also noticed you had an account on the polish site for several years... Smile
They already know you well there... Wink

Did you post the second link I mentioned in my latest post? Regarding the system memory chip? It's possible their troubles are due to the wrong memory being used when not matched, for Dual Channel. (Both sockets used)

PostPosted: Mon Sep 08, 2014 2:48 pm    Post subject: I found info on Dual Channel memory matching Reply with quote

Hi all...

I've been google-ing about Dual-Channel Memory matching, and came across a post in the full thread at...
http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/294755-30-dual-channel-working

This was dealing with 4 memory modules (sticks) for this user, but may also be valid with using 2 modules, too.

-------------------
Best solution

The DDR generations of RAM are 64-bit wide addresses for non-server RAM. DIMMs are built using "�4" (by 4) memory chips or "�8" (by 8 ) memory chips with 8 DRAM chips per side. "�4" or "�8" refer to the data width of the DRAM chips in bits.

The term "Rank" means the collective amount of DRAM chips per side; whereas the term "Bank" identifies how many "grids" per chip.

So, assuming that all sticks are double sided with a x8 organization, the one stick being reported as 1 Rank, 8 Banks has 8 chips on each side. Each of these 8 chips would have a 4-bit-wide data bus, and the 8 4-bit chips have 8 grids. The other three would have 8 DRAM chips on each side, with each chip 8-bits wide, but only 4 grids.

What this effectively means is that the lone 1-8 has only one 64-bit side to read/write from, while the three 2-4's have two 64-bit sides to read/write from.

Dual channel technology allows up to 128-bit data transfers, but if one stick only has 64 bits to address, then this certainly would explain why the pair of PNY sticks will not work in dual channel mode.
-----------------

Which may explain why the members on the polish site are having problems with their usage of the two memory slots, if the T5730 even actually supports Dual-Channel.

(The both 2GB PC2-6400 modules I have, have 8 chips on each side, and should match)

I don't know if this is the answer, because I don't know what resistors were used (value resistance), and where they added them to the motherboard, but assuming their soldering is correct, it seems the amount of chips per-side on the module, also makes a difference in matching for Dual Channel.
Of course, they can also be correct, that the HP T5730 BIOS is limited.

----
Here's another thread there, --if dual channel requires matched memory.

'Does matching RAM to make dual channel memory matter?'

Wow, yer on a ThinClient binge Laughing

That not a bad deal for what you say is already in the expansion bay.

But how do you figure $60 total when the shipping is ... $36.20 ..
In addition to the $45 ? Confused
Shipping: $36.20 Expedited Shipping

So you now have around 9 ThinClients? Or am I counting too many?
