CPU Upgrade - Satellite P100 Core2duo works 100%

I can now confirm that update to CORE 2 DUO CPU CORE DUO (T2300 T2400 T2500, T2600, etc) (T7200, T7300, T7400, etc...)
on Satellite P100 (17 ", GF7600 GPU, etc) with the latest version of the bios 3.30 is possible and it works 100%. I tested on P100-108 with T2300.

T7200 upgrade went without any problems and the bios identified with success the new processor.
The disadvantage of this upgrade is (if we ignore the high price of the c2duo :-)) who to change the CPU on the P100 series you
to remove the motherboard which is a long process (if someone needs help with his laptop disassembly

I can post a detailed guide
for the P100).
:-)

Thanks for the comments, it s a great info

But I think you warranty worth no more. If something goes wrong, you will pay for the repair...

  • Satellite P100-102 works badly since the installation of Vista

    Hello!

    I installed Windows Vista on my Toshiba p100-102 (A3E) but I had a 'small' problem. In each 3D app, I had a lot of shifts and slowdowns. I think it's a problem with the graphics card and I think the grapics card fan works slow since installing vista. Thus it reduces the mhz for a few moments (1 minute at) (I think, I'm not shure)

    so... anyone have any idea what I can do? Maybe should I use an alternativ graphics driver?

    SRY for my bad English = /.

    Hello

    did you properly installed all the drivers for your system? It s absoulutely necessary that everything is correctly installed and configured.
    Another thing is: Joanie to install the latest version of the bios, because I had a problem with my Satellite A100 after installation of Vista and I was able to solve it with my bios update.

    Regarding the graphics drivers, I can give you some links that might help you with your performance problems:

    http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
    http://www.OmegaDrivers.NET/

    Try these links and you will find drivers for your VGA. And please look carefully, a lot of people I have given the link tell me that they don t find anything, but the drivers are there.

  • Satellite P100 - 216 (PSPADE) - CPU / RAM upgrade options

    Hello guys,.

    I just got a laptop Satellite P100-216 (PSPADE-01400UEN). (card: T5500 - GeForce Go 7600 512 mb, 200GB)

    It has a Core 2 Duo T5500 inside and I intend to upgrade as well as the RAM to make a good laptop for my wife.

    The question if CPU is supported (assuming that the latest version of the BIOS). I am interested in the series with FSB800 or same T9000 T7000 series (1066fsb) shall if possible because I can get them pretty cheap - I know that the T5500 is just 667fsb by itself, so I wonder if the higher FSB is supported or I stay with 667 Mhz.

    Have searched through the net, but no information so far. Would not buy CPU only for it being not recognized by the laptop.

    Any advice would be much appreciated.

    Kind regards

    It is very nice for laptop and if you want to upgrade the RAM upgrade for your wife. In combination with the operating system pre-installed and optimized its own missus will be like to work on this machine.

    Upgrade of RAM is quite problematic and you can do it alone. what you need to do is get the compatible modules and high quality.
    I think now P100 has 2 GB of RAM, but you can upgrade to 4 GB.

    As compatible modules, you can use
    TOSHIBA
    PA3513U-1M2G (memory 2 GB DDR2-667 Kit) or

    Kingston
    KTT533D2 / 2G 2GB 533 MHz Module
    KTT667D2 / 2G 2GB 667 MHz Module

    On the CPU upgrade, I would just say that we forget. As a first step, it is not necessary to do so and secondaly - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    Bye and good luck.

  • Satellite P100 - 387 CPU fan works like crazy

    Hi all
    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite P100-387. I bought it with 2 friends. The same model.

    The problem exists only in 2 of the 3 laptops. It looks like this. When I start the machine everything is ok. While windows starts cpu cooler (or video card cooler if it exists) starts to work. If the fan starts to work the low speed at the highest. And did it for 5 - 10 times. Then a few minutes break and again. It's really noisy. It seems that when you insert a CD or a DVD.

    It goes like this also when windows is started. No high consumption of CPU, the fan works like crazy. Start at full speed for 2-3 seconds, then for 1 second and still the same.

    Everyone has the same 'characteristic '?
    What is this Toshiba Power Saver software works with p100-387?

    Hello

    I P100-109 close to me and I noticed the same thing. There is no difference between preinstalled WXP or Vista and because of this, I assume that this is a normal behavior. I know it's sometimes troubling, but unfortunately you have to live with it.

  • Satellite P100-119: is it possible to upgrade the processor to Core Duo?

    I ve a Satellite P100-119 computer laptop with 1, 66 GHz (Core Duo). Is it possible to install a faster processor (2.0 Ghz Duo Core) in this notebook, without Exchange of the motherboard?

    Hello

    Toshiba doesn't usually recommend upgrading CPU and doesn t support these upgrades. Everything you make are at your own risk!
    In this case you will lose the warranty and if something goes wrong you will not get any support.

    Well, some people suggested that it is possible and that works, but I've never tried and cannot give you a 100% guarantee that it will work.

  • No GPU fan after upgrading the BIOS to 4.2 on Satellite P100-434

    Hi, I upgraded my BIOS today to version 4.2 and since the GPU fan only works during the splash screen, and once Vista has loaded, it never runs again, in addition, the CPU fan turns at a constant speed, and the screen has "shifted" to the right, so I quarter of the right hand of the screen on the left.
    As you can imagine, it's a little annoying, and to say that the GPU temp is 65deg. with 90deg all about processors. not too good for the material.

    Is could someone PLEASE tell me how I can downgrade the BIOS?

    I have fans and fences etc. are all and free from dust.

    I do turn all the appropriate toshiba of specific drivers, and I even tried to reinstall the NVidia one card.

  • Satellite P100-160 (PSPAAE-01D00UEN) - upgrade processor

    I currently have a Satellite P100-160 part number: PSPAAE-01D00UEN. Is it possible to upgrade the processor in this machine, I find it very slow in the graphics work I do.

    Any other suggestions as to speed up the machine would be greatly received.

    Thank you

    Ian

    Hi IanGreen,

    A CPU upgrade is not possible, or let s say not supported. All that is supported is the preinstalled Toshiba CPU. If you want another CPU, sometimes at your own risk. Probably the motherboard, BIOS or chipset is not able to handle this or the cooling module is not good enough for faster CPU

    Anyway, your laptop is not the most recent, and if you need more performance, you should look for a new model ;)

  • Satellite P100-103: upgrade of the Core 2 Duo processor?

    I bought it is model and I thought to change the processor in a C2D. I just wanted to know if it is possible or not...
    BTW ive seen a P100 with double HD or something I want to know if it is possible with mine or I just read wrong '-_-

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Filipe

    Generally, the upgrade of the CPU is not very easy on laptops and undesirable. In my knowledge Toshiba doesn't supports CPU upgrade and you will lose the warranty if you open Notepad.

    As far as I know the microprocessor used in the Satellite P100 series (Intel Platform) will be different by the model.
    It supports the following processors:

    Intel Core Duo T2300(1.66GHz); T2400(1.83GHz); T2500 (2 GHz); T2600(2.16Gz); T2700(2.33Gz) FSB: 667 MHz

    Intel Core Solo T1400(1.83GHz); T1300(1.66GHz); FSB: 667 MHz

    Intel Celeron-M (Yonah core based) 410; 420; 430; FSB: 533 MHz

    Hope I could bring this matter to light.

    Good bye

  • Satellite M60 - issue CPU upgrade

    Hello out there!

    I am a happy owner of a Satellite M60.
    I recently installed Win7 pro and nothing works well.

    I was offered a new processor Intel M770 and
    now, I would like to hear if anyone has any experience changin processor in a laptop.

    The M770 have on the same specsas M740 and executes the same 915 chipsets. M770 has a 2.13 Ghz clock and the M740 1.73 revival.

    If I swap the processors, my laptop will get faster, or it will explode like a hurricane and disappear into a smokecloud?

    Best regards
    Mogens

    > The M770 have on the same specsas M740 and executes the same 915 chipsets. M770 has a 2.13 Ghz clock and the M740 1.73 revival.

    Well, generally the CPU upgrade is a really complicated because of the compatibility of the BIOS history, but I think you have a good chance to get the laptop working with new CPU M770. It belongs to the same family of CPU as the old CPU and chipsets support is the same.
    In addition, I think that this laptop overheating not using this CPU of course there is more the dissipation of heat thanks to the fastest performance, but I think that the cooling modules should handle this

    Of course, it s just my opinion personal and everything what you would do is at your own risk.

  • Satellite Pro L20-PSL25E - CPU upgrade question

    Hello

    I upgraded the ram last year and im running high-performance for my model, 2.0 GB.

    This really helped for awhile, but after a few heavy programs have been installed this year (only one software, one game) ive noticed it running slow as before, its worth noting that my computer has adopted all the necessary specifications for both outside the game where im working on 1.7 ghz and it needs the least 2.0 ghz processor , and I'm short on speed slowest peformance of the game itself.

    The vehicle has currently a centrino pentium, keeping in mind a new portable computer is not in my budget, is it worth getting a new processor and which would be best?

    Thanks again, Rebecca.

    Hello

    My personal opinion is that Satellite L20 is not designed for heavy operations and is certainly not game machine. If you compare the price of Satellite and Satellite L laptops you'll understand why. I'm sure that this laptop is designed for Internet, office and simple every day activities.

    Upgrading RAM is very good and I'm sure it helps a lot but CPU upgrade is not the solution. Update CPU is not supported. You must also understand that each hardware platform is designed for optimal physical activity. Processor, graphics, cooling system and other hardware components must work without overheating and harmonic. Stronger CPU means more heat.

    In my opinion you should optimize operating system preinstalled software hoping you use will work better and more stable.

  • Satellite P100-429 - new wireless network card does not work

    Hello

    I just upgraded my home network to the draft of the standard "n" and thought that I would upgrade my wireless card on my laptop P100-429;
    Laptop is under Vista Home Premium and has the latest version of BIOS and drivers installed.

    Laptop currently has an equipped Intel 3945ABG card that works very well. I bought an Intel 4965AGN card but when I enter it, the powers of computer to top, but wont load (lights, fan-nothing else)

    Okay - so I read on some forums, could be a bad card, so I bought a brand Toshiba 4965AGN card - P/N G86C0002P710
    Still having the same problem - the computer refuses to start. Intel technical support say the card should work?
    Obviously is a compatibility problem - what can I do about it?

    Or did someone knows what kind of card I should use?

    Thanks for your help!

    I m not a Satellite P100 owner but is your laptop equipped with 3 antennas or only 2?
    If your laptop has only 2 antennas t, you can pass it to N project because this WiFi standard needs of 3 antennas.

    I think that your laptop has only 2 antennas, so that would be the reason why the two cards are not compatible to your laptop.
