Exchange of CPU on Satellite Pro P300-180

Hi all
can anyone help? I have an old P300-180 and am looking to change the cpu I can go from a t2490 a p9700 someone's already done it

The defective CPU, or you just want to upgrade original processor?

I mean the CPU upgrade is not supported, so this could be a very risky step.

  • Upgrade CPU on Satellite Pro P300-1EX

    Hello

    I'm looking to upgrade my Intel Pentium Dual Core T3200 2 GHz. (to 667 Mhz front side Bus)
    I have some difficulty to find CPU can be installed safely.

    Can someone direct me to some that can be installed and give a performance increase?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    You need to know a few facts about upgrading the CPU.
    First of all computer laptop manufacturers don t support these updates and that means gift of manufacturers of portable t provided no details on processors taken in charge.

    But in most cases a CPU upgrade depends on the BIOS and chipsets support.
    In your case, it is essential to know which chipset was built in Notepad.
    Knowing this, you can use the Intel ARK page to get information on chipsets and processors supported.

    But even if the chipset would support the new processor, it is still pending regarding BIOS support.
    In the worst cases, the BIOS won't be compatible with the new processor and finally, it would mean that the phone would not work properly.

    I mean from my point of view a CPU upgrade does not provide a significant performance gain. There will be a small increase of performance, but in my opinion upgrade anther as a switch of the SSD HARD drive would be much better.
    I did these updates in the past and I was quite satisfied.

  • Satellite Pro P300 - update graphic card and CPU

    I have a Satellite Pro P300 and I was wondering if the CPU or the graphics card can be improved?

    I really like my laptop, but an upgrade is imminent and before I take the plunge I just want to see if it is all options other than a new laptop.

    Hello

    Processor and graphics card update is not supported and there is no list with compatible processors. If everything is on your own risk. In the worst case a new processor will not be recognized from the motherboard or BIOS, probably you need a new module of cooling too so I wouldn t this

    In addition, the graphics card is attached to the motherboard and cannot be exchanged.

  • Satellite Pro P300-145 - sound of frying with my headphones

    Hello!

    I have a Satellite Pro P300-145 and today I started noticing a noise of frying with my headphones. I tested my headphones in a different laptop and they sound good and if I play the same files with my speakers it sounds good too so I was wondering if you knew what could be the reason.

    I have to say I kept the laptop doesn't work for quite a lot this weekend and he got more than warm so I dunno if that could be causing it in the first place.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Andunemir,

    What operating system you are using? You use Windows or Linux?
    In addition, it would be interesting to know if this happens only with headphones/external speakers or portable speakers internal too. You can test this please?

    > I have to say I kept the laptop doesn't work for quite a lot this weekend and he got more than warm so I dunno if that could be causing it in the first place.
    The temperature of the laptop is enough depending on the applications that you are running. High CPU and graphic card use causes a higher temperature.

    But it s also advised to clean the system at any time using a jet of compressed air. This can blow the dust from the cooling fans and the laptop is much cooler after that. I do it every 3 months because I use my laptop every day. If I do that, I followed these instructions:

  • Satellite Pro P300 just died on me

    Hello

    Yesterday my Satellite Pro P300 (PSPC1E) died just the'm... no battery charging lights nothing. Nothing happens when I press the power button it is DEAD.
    The battery was ok last time used, the adapter is still give me almost 20volts.

    I took the laptop goes to check the DC in connector, it's ok.
    I guess that, after some research, it is a fault of the motherboard. In general my warranty missed 2 months ago!
    A new motherboard replacement so far here quoted costs £180, not too eager to pass that as I have a tax account at the end of this month!

    Any ideas of what could be the problem?
    I found a mobo on eBay which is a course of p300-1 to 8 for a song, but which would be compatible?
    What are all the variations in motherboards?
    Any other motherboard would be compatible?

    All ideas, suggestions would be much appreciated, and I thank everyone in advance for ideas.
    See you soon
    Steve

    I think motherboard is dead too. My brother had a similar issue when he wanted to connect the external HARD drive.
    Simply, there is an electro shock and from that moment the cell phone was dead. No reaction at all. Drive external HARD even was dead and it smells like burned plastic.

    Anyway, if you want to have the same hardware, you can buy identical mainborad of a PSPC1E model.

  • Satellite Pro P300-25W - noise fan too heavy

    Hello

    I just got my Satellite Pro P300-25W and I hate the noise of the fan. Is there a way to make it less noisy race less often?
    I updated to Windows 7 and installed the drivers from the Toshiba DVD.

    In power options I selected everything to be optimized battery / record maximum power in the advanced power settings. But still, the fan runs almost all the time. I use Windows to surf a little, the CPU usage is very low (less than 10%), there is no 3D graphics movies or something goes on that would put fun on the GPU.

    It drives me crazy.
    I can do something, or should I just bought a laptop?

    I hope you can help!

    > Is it possible to make it less noisy race less often?

    There is an extra entry called Toshiba Power Saving and there you can change the performance of cooling module for battery or power mode.
    Usually, this should help

    But note; It depends on the internal temperature! Higher temperature means more rapid cooling modules
    It might be also possible that your cooling fans are full of dust and debris and prevents air circulation, remove dust and clean the fan using a jet of compressed air. Who helped in my case

  • Satellite Pro P300 - BIOS upgrade to 64 - bit

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro P300 - 266 PSPCDE and I am very happy with him.

    Since I have a WIN7 64 bit OS, ready to use and 8 GB of RAM I need to update the BIOS to 64-bit.

    I found a WinPhlash file on the support site of Toshiba (toshiba - tro.de) bios called - 20090226124829.zip. I tried to use it as described in the Toshiba support on the use of WinPhlash (http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9502M10000R01.htm) page. Also, I made an exception for WinPhlash in the registry of the DEP.

    It still does not work.

    Since I am a user knowing very mediocre modern computers I guess I'm doing something wrong or I can be monitor something... can anyone please help me upgrade my system to its full capabilities?

    Thank you

    Aernout

    You don't need to upgrade BIOS. If everything works well don t change anything.
    I have Satellite P300 with preinstalled Win7 32 bit and works perfectly.

    How do your shopping with the 64-bit version?

  • Satellite Pro P300 always try to boot first from CD/DVD

    Hello world

    I have a problem with my laptop Satellite pro p300 PSPCDE: my OS is on my HARD drive (hdd1 with a ssd and hhd 2 is empty).
    In the bios on the boot sequence, I have just put (my ssd) first HDD1, HDD2 (which is empty), then drive diskette, then LAN and cd/DVD, but when I start it, it always try first to read the cd/DVD (with the horrible sound of the cv/dvd when it tries to start on it) and finally it starts on the HARD drive.

    Why is he trying to boot from the cd/DVD? I don't understand, my bios version is 3.4.
    I am now on W10 x 64 pro, but the problem was the same with win 7 pro.

  • Occasional Satellite Pro P300-1FP - gel during video playback

    Hello forum,.

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro P300-1FP, age about 4 years old.

    Running Windows 7 (32-bit version).

    An occasional but annoying problem: when playing video, from time to time the whole system freezes. Sound continues to come from the speakers, but it is usually either an idle down & distorted version of what I should be heard, or a noise buzzing/scream loud, repetitive.

    System retrieves ever - only freezes completely, unresponsive, frozen display, the mouse pointer moves, etc.. Have to restart every time.

    Anyone know what could be the cause of this & how can I fix this?

    Thank you
    Alan.

    As far as I know SP P300 works well with Win7 32 bit. My brother has the same machine and use it with Win7 too. We checked often performance with different games or playing different videos, mostly from avi or mpeg files. Also very good race and YouTube videos smoothly, so I really don t understand why you have this problem of gel.

    Have you installed the Toshiba download page display driver?
    HARD drive is extremely busy before that happens?

    The same thing happens when you play games?

  • Satellite Pro P300 - 23L - horizontal lines on the taskbar

    I have a portable Satellite Pro P300 - 23L.
    Last night it suddenly appeared, about 30 horizontal thin white lines on the taskbar (actually on the bottom half inch of the screen).
    The top 3 or 4 of these lines seem to pulse in a fast and regular way.

    Now, I can barely see the icons in the taskbar, or the button to start in the lower left corner.

    I read on another forum that the problem may be due to a problem of "grounding".
    The charger plug is actually broken and repaired the wiring myself, but that some time previously, so it is possible that a connection is loose or is now was something shorting causing this effect.

    I had to order a new charger but in the meantime would appreciate any assistance in order to confirm or deny that this could be the problem.

    Any advice on how to remedy this?

    Hello

    If the problem would be with the power adapter this lines should NOT be visible using the laptop with the battery. Right?
    Therefore, it would be really interesting to know if the same lines are visible if the AC adapter is not plugged in.

    But I think that this is unrelated to the power adapter. In my opinion its a display issue or a graphics card problem.
    Therefore, you must connect an external monitor to check it out.
    If the same lines are visible on the external monitor, the graphics chip is assigned the case, it could be a display problem.

  • Satellite Pro P300 best exit way to get audio for blu - ray player or projector

    Hello

    Would be great if someone has experience on the following points.

    I have a Satellite Pro P300 - PSPCDA 03 P00D: I would like to know the best option for high-quality audio from this unit to a blu - ray player or an optoma projector. (Or a good way to find the answer)

    The blu - ray player has hdmi (the satellite does not work) and the optoma projector has a 3.5 mm mini-plug.

    The satellite has a sound piece dolby - is it possible to get a feed for audio output dolby?

    Any thought / experience welcome.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    Not sure but I think that the headphone socket supports S/PDIF
    I think you should check the user manual for more information on S/PDIF
    If his support, then you can use it to get the best audio quality

    Also found this doc in the knowledge base of Toshiba

    Hello

    The European driver Toshiba page provides two audio Conexant drivers for this model of laptop.
    + Driver sound + 4.36.10.0
    + Driver sound + 4.83.1.0

    I recommend the new version 4.83.1.0
    Uninstall the old driver first in the Device Manager.

    Restart the device and install the new downloaded drivers.

    Hope this helps to get better sound quality :)
