Ask about the maximum memory recognized in the Satellite Pro 4200/4300 series

I thought that the maximum RAM that could be recognized in the series SP4200/4300 of machines was the 64 MB on board, over a maximum of 2 X 128 MB tapes in the two expansion slots for a total of 320 MB.

However, I came across an ad from someone who claims to have managed to get recognized 448 MB (64 MB on board, 256 MB in a slot and 128 MB in another location) in a SP4270. This seems to go against what was supposed to be the maximum specification of 320 MB, consisting of 64 MB on board 2 X 128 MB in the expansion slots.

The accepted view was that 128 MB memory bands was the maximum that could be recognized in each of the slots. However, it seems that this employee have discovered that this is not the case.

Other contributors have some luck with the modules of memory of 256 MB being used/recognized by the machines SP4200/4300? The poster suggested that the machine could cope with a 256 MB module and a 128 MB module.

Any comments from anyone who might have tried this or variations on this? What two 256 MB modules? -Someone at - it tried?

I do not have this good old classic, but I can just confirm your info on maximum RAM. I imagine that the RAM for this oldie modules are not expensive. Why not take a risk and buy a 256 MB module.

  • Maximum memory recognized for a Satellite Pro 4340

    Read the previous posts about the extension of the maximum memory for a laptop Satellite Pro 4300 series suggests that the possible maximum memory upgrade is 320Mo composed of 64 MB on board more than two banks of 128 MB (128 128 64 = 320). I asked Toshiba in England if the SP 4300 range will recognize the PC100 256 MB memory modules, but they couldn't give me a definitive answer one way or another - just that they had tried to 128 MB with success modules. However, the specifications of the machine have been written before 256 MB modules were generally available, and so I would like to ask the following questions of the readers of the forum:

    1. someone has actually tried a bunch of 256 MB of PC100 memory in banks of memory your laptop series 4300 SP? -If so, what was the result?

    2. even if the maximum memory that can be recognized is always set to 320 MB, this could be achieved by simply using a bar of 256 MB and 64 MB on board?

    3. has anyone actually tried to put into one or two modules of 256 MB memory in the memory banks and see what happens? Are they recognized?

    It is clearly an expensive experiment to try then I would hear earlier for other people who may have already explored these options rather than buying the memory myself to see what is not recognized! I'm really interested in hearing from someone who has actually tried what I mean above (and either successful or failed) not of someone who has read the specs on the Web from Toshiba site that says maximum memory is 320 MB and then a few citations that back for me.

    Hello

    I found exactly the same info on the memory modules. You can use the 128 MB module with PA3005U - 1 M 12 part number.

    I have gift? t understand why you want to use this module of 256 MB. If you want to have the maximum performance, don? t complicate just use tested parts and enjoy life.

  • What is the difference between the Satellite Pro 4200 and 4300 series?

    As mentioned in another thread, I have a SP4220XCDT that died on me.

    I bought a mobo on ebay which was a 4290 and today it happened, but the problem was that there was an apparently fixed CPU, which stands out much less of the Council than that of the Board of Directors 4220 and therefore does not connect with my 4220 cooling mechanism.

    At least something comes on when I start now, but unfortunately he has passed the Toshiba screen that tells you to press F2 for boot sequence.

    Having also spent money on a new CPU and memory, I don't want it let go and I've seen a motherboard available suitable for a 4320/40/60 - does anyone know if it will agree with the rest of my 4220? It doesn't have a cpu so presumably will have the same mechanism as the motherboard 4220.

    I'm assuming that these may be compatible since I managed to find a pdf of a service manual that covers both the 4200 and 4300, although unfortunately the first page is missing, so I don't ' know if that highlights any differences.

    It's frustrating that there's no PDF for these older models, at least with the plug on them, and it is very difficult to find info.

    As usual, thanks for any help!

    Hello

    As far as I know the two series using the Intel Mobile Pentium III with MMX microprocessor? Technology.

    I discovered these details:

    Satellite 4260 series: Mobile Pentium III 450 MHz
    4270 satellite series: Intel Mobile Celeron 500 MHz
    Satellite 4280 series: Mobile Pentium III 500 MHz

    Satellite 4320 series: Mobile Pentium III 600 MHz with Intel SpeedStep technology
    Satellite 4340 series: Mobile Pentium III 650 MHz with Intel SpeedStep technology

    Portable measures should be also the same. So in my opinion, it should be possible to use the same motherboard for Satellite Pro 4200 and 4300.

  • Question about the Satellite Pro M40X upgrades

    I bought it about 10 months ago, it works well, but now I have two questions:

    (1) the original 256 M RAM, I will still add a 512 m?

    (2) the original operating system is in Czech language, can I get an English recovery DVDs?, because I'll go to another country next month.

    Thank you

    Hello David

    1. your device can handle with max 1.5 GB of RAM. You can add tracking modules:
    PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
    PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
    1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)
    These modules are compatible and will have no problem.
    2. as far as I know you can't get recovery on another CD, but it is not important at all. To install the OS on another language, you can
    Use the Microsoft facilities (full version) CD. Download page for all the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can find on Toshiba.

  • Satellite Pro 4200 recognize RAM only in the B slot

    I have recently got a Satellite Pro 4200 and want to increase the memory up to 320 MB.
    To start I bought a 128 MB module and have found that with a 64 MB module in a slot and the 128 MB in the other system only recognizes the module into the connector B.

    Must the modules in the two slots be the same value for the system to recognize them? i.e. the 128 MB or two 64 MB.
    If this is the case its OK but if it's not I don't want to buy another 128 MB module, if the location is unservicable.

    Thank you
    Billabilla.

    Hello

    Wow Sat Pro 42000 is an oldie I didn t think someone using this mobile in the future, I mean it's a great laptop but the performance he is too weak to be present-days.
    As far as I know the Satellite Pro 4200 was equipped with Mobile Intel Celeron 500 Mhz or with an Intel Pentium III 450 Mhz / 500 Mhz.

    Pentium 450 Mhz CPU equipped units can be improved up to 320 MB. All other units can be upgraded up to 576 MB.

    I think that the 64 MB module should not be removed!
    You must use 64 MB + 128 MB or 256 MB or 512 MB (only for models with 500 Mhz processor).

    Hope this helps you

  • Upgrade memory on the Satellite Pro A200

    Have two cell phones of #PSAE1E - 00T002EN Satellite Pro A200 and wanted to know if I can pass the 2 x 1 GB memory 2 x 2 GB?

    If I understand correctly what ask you, you want to upgrade memory of 4 GB laptops.

    Well, I think that it s is not possible.
    The Satellite Pro A200 supports maximum 2 GB of RAM (2 x 1 GB), then you will not be able to use 2 x 2 GB modules.

  • The maximum size of HARD drive the BIOS sees in Satellite Pro 4200 and 4300 series systems

    I want to switch the HARD disk in my Satellite Pro 4340. I know the 4200 and 4300 SP series can take at least a 20 GB HARD drive that I've already updated a SP4270 and SP4280 drives from 20GB already.

    I did a search on assignments earlier re. Satellite Pro 4200 and computers portable 4300 series as various other contributors of this forum had already asked this question. A respondent suggested that they had installed a 60 GB HARD disk without problem.

    Someone at - it else mounted a big HARD drive (or more even) in these notebooks series 4200 and 4300 and managed to do work OK and had the BIOS to recognize the total size of the HARD drive?

    What is the largest swap HDD that someone did with success on these machines of 4200/4300?

    Unfortunately, you will not be able to find accurate information about it. All you can find are reports from other users. I am really interested about other views.

    By the way: 60 GB HARD drive is not sufficient for you?

  • The upgrade memory and HDD on Satellite Pro A300-1EA

    So, I'm new to this forum so first of all Hello to all!

    I plan to buy the Satellite Pro A300 1EA and I came to the conclusion that I need to buy more memory that the thing has already installed (2 048 MB).
    I tried to search for information through Kingston and OCZ, but have not found something solid on what memory modules are supported by the A300-1EA.

    The A300-1EA uses DDR2 800 Mhz type of memory (max 8192MB) instead of just dealing with one module 2084 installed, I had intended to get two of them.

    What I have to buy two identical modules, or can I increase memory by simply adding a module to match installed?
    So if anyone has an idea where I could find on the modules of memory supported, that would be swell! :)

    The other thing is quite the same, but only with hard disks. I found many potential readers than fullfill my needs for a faster drive (upgrade of 5400 RPM / min-> 7200 RPM), but I don't know which ones work with this laptop.

    After all, I'm in the impression that laptops are not so easy on these pieces as desktop computers.

    Thanks in advance!

    Satellite Pro A300-1EA belongs to the series of PSAG9E, and it seems that it was fitted on the Chipset Mobile Intel GM45 Express.
    As far as I know, that you can improve this laptop 4 GB RAM max so I wonder which tells you something about 8 GB support.
    You can upgrade the memory to 4 GB, and you can use the 200-PIN SODIMM 800 MHz modules.

    But to be honest I don t understand why you want to upgrade if the 32-bit Windows operating system will see only 3.2 GB due to the limitation of the 32-bit operating system.

    With regard to the drive HARD;
    You need a HARD drive 2.5 SATA.

  • The maximum size of HDD for Satellite Pro 6000?

    Hi, I am trying to install a 60 GB hard drive, but it is shaped, and it stops at the instalation of Windows XP Pro.

    Is there a size limit of HD?

    Thank you
    Ronaldo

    Hello

    It stops without any error message? If this isn't the case, then try another copy of Windows XP since the Satellite Pro 6000 shouldn´t have problems with this drive. I had 2 years a similar machine and I also got a 60 GB Toshiba HARD drive installed. It worked like a charm, so I can't imagine that the hard drive could be the problem.

  • 8 issues of the new owner of the Satellite Pro L300

    Hello to all forum users!

    I bought a new Toshiba, the Satellite Pro L300 laptop and have until January 14 to test - if it looks like it is not working properly I will return it to the store where I bought it.

    Here is a list of questions I have:

    1. whenever I turn on the laptop or it is suspension or hibernation mode, and when I disable it, the cd/dvd drive makes a clumsy mechanical noise.

    It seems to me like the cart that transports the laser and optics is running in a mechanical stop.

    Is this normal?

    2. There is a hot sub-pixel on the screen (in blue) and according to the Toshiba info in the box, this is normal and does not return.

    Should I worry about this?

    3. when I run the test memory at the start of the system, she says she'll start windows automatically at the end of the trial and show me the results of the test.

    It performs the test, Vista boot, but I see no reports of results.

    Where can I find the report?
    Is there a known issue with this test?

    4. the service program Toshiba to perform diagnostics of slot Vista does not work. Whenever I run the test (PCdiag.exe) I get an error message Vista saying a defect was found in the KERNEL32.dll module.

    Where can I get a fix for this?
    I have already installed the updated files on the Toshiba web site for the "Value Pack", which is where this utility, but still not the error message.

    5. I want access the settings of the bios at startup, but have not found a way to do it again.
    F2 gives me a menu for memory test or normal boot system.
    ESC is not me in bios Setup either.
    There is a utility for bios Toshiba that I can run Vista, and I see that any upgrade bios firmware should also be done through Vista.

    Is there a way to access bios at startup?

    6. I would like to run XP on this system and realized that this model (Pro L300 PSLB1E) is compatible XP, and I should be able to download all the drivers from Toshiba to run under XP.

    Does anyone do this?

    7. the laptop and configured Vista Basic when I did the first power on, but the license sticker on the bottom of the laptop has a product key for "Vista OEMAct Business." I was captivated by this laptop as the option to revert to XP Pro with Vista business. The box did not come with any CD or DVD and no manuals explaining how to install Vista Business.

    This is reason enough to return the laptop in the store where I bought it, which is a chore, I prefer to avoid if I can install Vista Business.

    Can someone help me understand what is happening here?

    8. is there a way to contact technical support by e-mail?

    Thanks in advance to anyone who can answer all of these questions!

    Hello

    Two weeks ago, I worked several days on friends Satellite Pro L300. Your questions are interesting and I will try to provide an answer or comment.

    1 this is normal behavior. I noticed it on other models of computer laptop too. Right now I use Satellite P200D and I noticed the same thing.

    2. of course, you may have noticed a dead on the screen pixel and more on what you can read on
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB5400ZD0002R01.htm
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/FAQ8702EI0000R01.htm

    3. maybe follow links can help a better understanding:
    http://web1.Toshiba.ca/support/TechSupport/TSBs/all/-TSB001369.htm
    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial146.html

    4. what to say about this? I t has not noticed this error and I can recommend just reinstall full VAP. Remove preinstalled system, restart your computer and install the latest version of the Toshiba download page.

    5. When you start the laptop downstairs you can find info how to enter the BIOS settings. It usually takes F2. I really don't understand what is wrong in your case, but must work F2. Press immediately after turning on your laptop. Press several times. You have to work

    6. If you can find the download page of drivers, tools and utilities on Toshiba Windows XP Home edition, you should be able to install and configure Windows XP Home edition on this model of laptop. For the installation of Windows XP edition family please use Windows XP SP2 home edition.

    7. This must be clarified with your local dealer. The fact is that Toshiba doesn t offer any CD/DVD and recovery DVDs must be created by the owner of the laptop. I presume that you didn t seen or read Toshiba reminder about it. This point explains exactly what needs to be done.
    The recovery media can be created using the preinstalled Toshiba Recovery creator. The shortcut is placed on the desktop.

    8. I'm afraid, you must contact the hotline, but as far as I know Toshiba's toll-free hotline.
    Call and ask if there is something you want to know.

    Good luck!

  • What is a current market value of the Satellite Pro L100-125

    Hello

    I currently have a laptop Satellite Pro L100-125, that I've had for a few years now.
    It's getting on abit I know, but until recently, he did everything I needed it to do. Unfortunately, I had a small accident and the laptop has been damaged.

    Asking for a new home insurance since I'm not able to buy a new laptop for now (being student humble and everything!). The insurance company asked about the damage and the value of the computer.

    The damage, I know, this is the current value of the computer that I'm not sure of!
    Its probably not much, but if I get it wrong then a number of things can happen!
    If I declare that the value is higher than it actually is, they say it's fixable or say that it is a fraudulent application!

    If I declare the value too low, then we'll write him offshore but I get a very good replacement (I know it's the lesser of two evils and looks like I'm just try on, but this claim will push my premiums until next year regardless, so I might as well get the best that I can possibly get out of it!).

    Anyone happen to know the current market value of a laptop with the specifications below?

    The computer is a Satellite Pro L100-125
    Intel Centrino Duo T2400 1.83 GHz
    2 GB of RAM (512 MB originally)
    60 GB HARD drive

    Also, just so that I know what to expect, no one knows the approximate cost of replacing the screen and the housing on this particular laptop?

    Any help at all would be much appreciated.

    Hello

    Satellite L100 series is already abandoned and it seems no more on the market
    The point is that you could buy a new a lot harder for laptop with the best hardware specifications for about 400-500 euros.
    I don't have no idea how the fix would cost, but if the screen or motherboard would have died then the repair process could be a costly affair because the display and motherboards are more expensive laptop parts

    You should check the dimensions of the car. Very important is the drive (master, slave, csel) settings because it is not possible to change this settings as on the usual desktop drive.
    I'm not sure about the settings on the Satellite Pro 4600 but the ASP Toshiba should know that.
