  Hello

  Well, you're first time here in the forum ;) Welcome!

  Now to your question. AFAIK the Equium A60-692 was delivered with an internal memory of 256 MB. This module cannot be deleted.
  Additional memory location is available and you can upgrade the memory for max 1280MB (256 MB + 1024 MB) in this case, you can use a 1 024 MB module.

  You use PC2100 DDR - RAM memory modules.
  Also, I found one that you can use without any problems. The reference is: 1024Mo PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

• Equium A100-306 memory upgrade from 2 x 512 MB to 4 GB for Windows 7 64-bit

  Hello

  I want to upgrade the RAM on my A100-306 to make use of the full capacity of win 7 64 bit. I was looking around, I know that I need PC-4200 (533 MHz) 200 Pin SODIMM modules, but I'm not clear on whether they need to be combined. Ideally, I would like to buy a single 2 GB module now and then take a second in the future. My questions are:

  (1) is it acceptable to have a single 2 GB module?
  (2) can I leave in one of the current 512 GB modules give me 2.5 GB?
  (3) the extent to which the second module must match the first case has been purchased and added at a later date?

  I look forward to the advice.

  Hello

  The A100-306 supports the Mobile Intel® 945GM Express Chipset.
  This chipset supports 4 GB RAM max.
  This means that you can use 2 x 2 GB modules.

  Yes, you can use 512 MB and 2 GB of RAM, it should be possible

  Usually it s recommended to use modules with the same specifications
  I mean that the modules must use the same speed (Mhz) if one of the modules will be slower then the fastest module be pointed down and the two modules would go to lower speed

• Equium L350 - 10L - memory upgrade question

  Hello

  I have the Equium L350 - 10L. Is it possible to upgrade the memory on my laptop. For the moment, it has 2GB (2x1GB).

  Thank you

  Of course you can upgrade the RAM.
  Did you look in the manual that was stored on the laptop?
  I think that you should do this it can you did many details, photos and any other information regarding the upgrade of RAM.

  Check the memory extension Chapter 8 option aircraft.

  In addition, you should know that if you would upgrade the RAM to 4 GB then your 32-bit Windows system will see ONLY 3.2 GB.
  So if you want to use full 4 GB, you will need to change the operating system to 64-bit.

  In my opinion, 3 GB of RAM are more than enough

• Equium A100-338 and memory twin

  Hello

  I see that the satellite A100-338 has a chipset intel 945 GM, who, according to intel, supports dual channel memory. Is it so? Crucial to the site it says that it's not and there is no reference to this website of toshiba. Can someone give me a definitive answer?

  Thank you

  Tom.

  See this page:

  [Memory for Toshiba Equium A100-338 | http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=28155&ft=m&st=3]

  There, you can find this info:
  Memory compatible type: * DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM

  The laptop can certainly stand modules of DDR2 (dual channel)!

• Equium A100-338 - Flash memory card does not

  Whenever I have close World of Warcraft, something appears in the upper left corner (looks like it must be a window but only on bar showing) which reads "Toshiba Flash Card (not answer). What can I do to prevent this?

  Im sure he appears during the game as well as I hear a ringing sound.

  I have an Equium A100-338.

  Thanks for any help!

  Hello

  a solution may be turning off the flash card service if Don t you need your USB.

  You can disable it by following these steps:

  -Go to start-> settings-> Control Panel-> administration-> Services tools

  -Make a right click on 'Smart Card' and left click on "Properties".

  -In the window who pop´s you must stop the service and disable it with the "Disabled" choice to the option "Startup Type".

  After that, your flash drive service is disabled and that you won´t get that annoying more errormessage.
  (I hope so: O)

• Equium A100 - 338 PSAAQE nothing more beyond 3063 GB RAM

  Hi all

  I am owner of Equium A100-338 PSAAQE.
  In my manual and workbook loads on exactly my laptop's info, I can put on the maximum memory 2x2gb modules and after that, I should have 4 GB of ram.

  So I did and believe me or not there is NOT 4 GB RAM.
  Of course in the BIOS I see system memory total 4096, but in the MESSAGE window and in my system, I can see only 3063.
  I have the 64-bit linux system and there should be 4GB without any problem.

  So, where's my 1 GB memory?

  Kind regards

  Hello

  Well, I downloaded the user manual of the Toshiba page and checked also.
  And now, I am wondering about your statement that the user manual says something about 4 GB of RAM.

  There is an info interested in the user's manual; * Chapter 1: Introduction-> characteristics; *
  Here you can find details about memory and he says:

  + Slots memory: 256 MB, 512 MB PC4200 or 1024 MB memory modules can be installed in the two memory locations for a maximum of 2048 MB system memory. +

  It seems that the upgrade of RAM of 4 GB is * NOT * possible.

• Equium A100-338 - do I have to buy a recovery disk?

  Hello

  I have a bit of a dilemma. Vista on my Toshiba Equium A100-338 sticker is worn (was like that when I bought it). I upgraded my hard drive, installed Windows 7, then gave my old one (forget were the top recovery partition). I want to sell the laptop so back to its original State would be ideal.

  Toshiba said that I have to buy a drive for recovery for 29.90, which is ridiculous. Can someone help me?

  Details of the laptop: Toshiba Equium A100-338 PSAAQE-006008AV

  See you soon

  Hello!

  If you want to return factory settings as in the first start of the laptop, you can buy a Toshiba Recovery disk. This disc contains a picture of the factory settings, and so you can install the laptop in minutes with all Toshiba drivers and tools.

  But I put t understand why it is ridiculous for you. I mean normally get you on laptop Toshiba with Vista after the first start a message that you must burn the recovery disc yourself. It takes 10 minutes and you need only one or two DVD discs. I did it on my Toshiba laptop and I think you should take 10 minutes of your time to do this too.

  However, nobody says you have to buy the drive because you can also use a disc of Microsoft and download Toshiba stuff on the Toshiba page but you need so much more time.

  Good bye

• Equium A100-338 - Missing recovery Toshiba in the menu Wizard

  I have a Toshiba Equium A100-338 I need recovery to factory settings.
  I know I have to press f8 and go to the Toshiba Recovery Wizard.

  My problem is that this option is missing and has been replaced by 'Restore the whole Windows operating system'. When I click on this option, I get a generic message, saying that I have to restore from a restore CD.

  My question is, is it possible to manually start the recovery in the command prompt? The wizard needs to run a program. All I have to do is find this program. I know that I have the recovery partition (I used Ubuntu to recover files of the user, and should it upward).

  Hello

  Just a simple question: If you have problems to start the HARD drive recovery, why you n t use the Toshiba Recovery disk?

  It can also restore settings from the factory with all the drivers and tools, so it of the same wait it erases the entire HARD disk.

• Equium A100-338 has started to go very slow after using the recovery CD

  I used the recovery CD after my Equium A100-338 has started to go very slow, it still seems slower than it used to be.
  I haven't added anything to the computer from the CD recovery and verified the Manager tasks to see if I could spot anything suspicious.

  Statistics say, use 18-22% CPU, but the physical memory is about 68% is this normal or should it be less?

  Is there a list of standard processes I can check against mine to see if its doing something, it shouldn't be?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I think you feel that unity is a bit slow due to the high amount of different processes that run in the context of the BONE.

  The fact is that your laptop supports various features such as buttons FN, Toshiba control buttons, etc.
  All this has needs drivers.

  In addition, as I m not wrong the Norton Internet Security has been installed on your system.
  It s part of the image of Toshiba and this tool could affect the performance of the system.

  I have used in the past, but now changed to another application that doesn t need a lot of material resources.

  So if you want you can disable or delete some of the tools and utilities that are not important to you and could clean the system using a 3rd third party tool called CCleaner

• Equium A100-338 display has stopped working

  Hello

  I have exactly the same problem on my Equium A100-338 loaded with Vista.
  The display has stopped working (he went to a poorly lit black screen) after I had rebooted my machine even if the computer and the hard drive seems to work Ok with the lights on. I tried the usual elimination of power and the battery and restart it tricks, but after initial success it has stopped working after a few weeks.

  Once I had the computer operation that I only closed it down in the mode 'sleep', and he continued to work for a month until that he should be released after a windows update. I then plugged an external display and use of the Fn + F5 key got the external display running.
  Low and behold, the screen of the laptop started working again as if it had been "energised".

  I took what the laptop screen was OK and that he would not need replacement.
  The laptop worked OK until it needed to restart another when the unrest started again. The screens are gray on the monitor and the laptop now.

  These problems seem to point to a flaw in the display driver or VGA card, have you received updates or suggestions?
  Now, I bought another laptop Toshiba Satellite to connect to the forums trying to find out if my original computer can be repaired
  These problems seem to be quite common on Toshiba computers.

  Any help members would be welcome.

  > These problems seem to point to a flaw in the display driver or VGA card, have you received updates or suggestions?
  For the most part a graphics card driver must be reinstalled or updated to a newer version it can also be a problem of OS which means that the new facility could help
  But try to update the display driver

• Equium A100-338 - required key for keybord

  I doubt you can buy each of the keys, you need to buy a new keyboard to an ASP.

• Equium A100-338 - battery power problem

  Hello

  My daughter has an Equium A100-338 bought England under Vista Home Premium 15 months ago. He has recently developed a problem with the battery life, which in theory should mean the replacement of the battery, but I'm not so sure!

  The battery quickly descends to say 80% 6 minutes remaining, about 20 minutes after a full charge. Then put it in charge that it retrieves to 100% in about 20 minutes. The notebook gets rather warm below, but I think it's probably normal, that old equium of my other daughter gets warm anyway.

  Someone has encountered this problem, or is it just that he needs a new battery? I would have thought that it would have lasted longer, the other Equium battery is still going strong and is one year more!

  Thank you
  Dave

  Hello

  Hmm I think that you battery is not dead and can be used much longer than you think.

  I see that you have Vista on your laptop. This OS needs more resources for laptop as the Win XP for example. This would mean that laptops preinstalled Vista would be shorter on the battery as the laptop with Windows XP.

  Finally, and especially the battery working time is highly dependent on the use of the laptop.
  If you play games or watch movies DVD battery discharges faster.

• How can I my Equium A100-338 connect to AOL

  How can I get aol my previous pc connection works on my new laptop?
  I can't make it work at all. The DSL light is not my modem. Do I need settings to log in again?
  I have the model Toshiba Equium A100-338.
  Please answer.
  Thank you.

  Hello

  I agree with James. AFAIK for AOL users there is an AOL software that needs to be preinstalled. By using this software, you can configure DSL connection.

  By the way: do you use modem for DSL connection only or also a router between your laptop and the DSL modem?

• Equium A100-338, replacing the hard drive

  Hi, the hard drive from my Toshiba Equium A100-338 just broke down on me, and now I think to replace. Because I'm not good material, I thought I have ask for advice about it here first. Is this an easy repair that can be done on your own? If so, how can I know if my computer match which new hard drive? I know that I need a 2.5 inch Sata-150 and all that, but I'm not sure of the compatibility.

  In addition, it is worth the money to make repairs like this on such an old computer? I wouldn't throw it out when everything else seems to work very well.

  Hello

  In the Toshiba forum you will find here with some nice instructions how to replace a HARD drive on the different laptop models.
  I found a movie that explains how do on Satellite A200.

  Replacing the HARD drive is not very delicate, and the process is similar for all models of laptops.
