• Equium A100: Need some details on upgrade opportunities

  Hey guys and girls
  I'll get to the point.

  I'm looking to upgrade the RAM in a Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop. He was provided with 1 GB (2 x 512 MB modules) providing I find the correct memory DDR 2 modules.
  Does anyone know if there is a limit to how much I can increase the RAM?

  I also want to replace the HARD drive module as the 80 GB just doesn't cut it, any advice or direction on that would be greatly received.

  Also, any information on an upgrade of the processor would be appreciated.

  I know it's asking a lot, but you guys know better than me.

  First of all I have to say, it will be interesting to know what Equium A100 you exactly (A100-xxx).
  Upgrading RAM is very easy and you can do it in first. According to specifications of the laptop, your laptop can handle with 4 GB max and compatible RAM modules is DDR2-533 1 GB (PA3411U-2M1G). To check the list of all compatible modules visit Toshiba support under http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com page

  On the upgrade of the HARD drive, there is no public document, but I'm sure that you can upgrade up to 250 GB HARD drive with no problems.

  Update CPU is not supported and you should think about it. Believe me with the maximum RAM that you need not upgrade CPU. Maximum RAM upgrade and optimize the operating system.

  You certainly have the WLan driver.

  You will find all Wlan drivers:

  Sorry but there are a number of models of Equium A100 and therefore it s not possible to tell which driver WLan you have without knowing the model number.

• Equium A100-027: recovery disk remove second partition data?

  I installed the update of Windows Vista Service Pack 2 and now the laptop will not charge.
  I have a partitioned hard drive and will have to use the restore product disc.

  I have a lot of pictures and things on the second part of the hard drive.
  I want to know if I use the restore disc it will remove the imformaton on the second drive hard or as the first?

  Thank you

  Hello

  The recovery disk will format the whole HARD drive and will be also possible to erase all partitions created on the HARD drive!
  This means that you will lose your photos and all data stored on the HARD drive.

  Therefore, you must back up the data before using the recovery disk!

  Hello

• 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.

• 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

  Any ideas greatly appreciated.

• Equium A100-147: I get an error during the recovery procedure

  Hi again,

  I had trouble with my equium a100-147.
  I tried a restore, but the disc is scratched so I phoned in ESL and it snet me a new recovery image.

  I tried the new recovery disk and am now errors when I boot the disk.

  error is

  "internal error crc file: \WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB895200$\msdtctm.dl.

  any suggestions are welcome. get really annoyed with my machine as my warranty expired only one month

  Thank you

  Hmm... I studied a bit and it looks a bit like a malfunction of the partition.
  It would be desirable to boot from the original CD of Microsoft XP and to start the repair console.
  Then you could try these various commands which help to repair the boot manager, repair errors, locate bad sectors and recover readable information.

  -fixboot
  -fixmbr
  -bootcfg /rebuild
  -chkdsk /r

  If this does not help, you should erase the entire partitions and must format the HARD drive in NTFS file system. Then access the BIOS and set it to the default value.
  Once this procedure tries to start again on the new recovery CD!

  Good bye

  Having a little trouble with my Equium a100-147.
  Tried a recovery from disk and I got up to 75% and recovery stopped.

• Need a new fan of cooling for my old Equium A100-207

  Hi, I need a replacement fan for my Equium A100-207
  It started making a loud humming noise - it has only started to do today but has not let up since it was started.

  I took my laptop apart to see if I could sort by cleaning and fiddling with the fan, it has certainly had an effect - not as noisy or come all too often after shoveling a load of dust compacted, but noise is such that I can't really use it somewhere else than at home and only with headphones or high and loud music to muffle the noise can certainly go near a library with her!

  So I know how to replace ok, but no where can I buy a fan in the United Kingdom saw 2nd hand those on ebay, but don't touch them - could well be as bad! Another of those that I have seen that I can't be sure if they are the correct model, I put my laptop together again (typing this top).

  Ideally, I would like to purchase via Amazon that I have some good for here, but anywhere selling the good or one that will be enough is more than welcome. Or a way to sort the loud hum another that disable the fan altogether!

  Really appreciate all the help busy sending work so applications need to use my laptop for this and for job search.

  Thanks in advance.
  Mike.

  Hi Mike

  With laptops are quite complicated to find new hardware. Desktop you can find everywhere, but for laptops, it's quite complicated so you must try to find an online store where you can order parts of equipment for mobile units.

  As far as I know Amazon doesn't sell these parts.
  Best source for this is eBay. I bought several hardware components for my books there.

  By the way: do you have anything like thisneed?

• Equium A100 - do I need a new battery?

  I have an Equium A100 all of a sudden it has stopped working. I bought a new power adapter, but this does not solve it. If I remove the battery and plug it into the area I get a little flash to power led but while they come out, you think that I need a new battery?

  If the laptop works when it is plugged directly into the sector without the battery inserted?

  I would appreciate your help.

  Hi mate,

  I doubt that a new battery can solve this problem. I want to say normally connected to your laptop AC adapter, you should work correctly, abnormal or even without battery.

  In my opinion it s associated with another party. Maybe it s a problem of motherboard or something else.

  You should ask a technician for laptop help. They can help you to solve this problem and diagnose the reason for this.

  PS its software multi media says is absent but pctures video and downloads and all other functons are fine...

  Don t use the series or different model Toshiba laptop recovery CD!
  The system will not properly work because drivers and tools that are preinstalled on the recovery for A100 CD are designed only for the model A100 laptop and not for M70 or other series!

  If you lost the recovery CD, you can either order a new one or you can use a new original CD of Microsoft Windows OS. You can then use the drivers from the Toshiba page.
