• Faulty memory to Equium A60

  Hi all

  Has just been given a notebook Equium A60 to look at, basically when I try recovery DVD, all is well until the phone restarts, errors occur with files system etc, blue screen of death, I tried MEMTEST86 memory and he finished only 12% before it failed with errors.

  I think that memory is faulty & is giving me these errors, I removed the cover at the back of the laptop & was surprised to see that the only slot was empty?

  Where is the memory of the system on these laptops? Windows XP says 192Mo, so I assume that 256 MB with 64 MB taken by graphic design...

  I have to 'strip' of the laptop to be able to get to the memory & if so is this a replaceable part?

  Any info or help would be greatly appreciated

  > Does that mean that the "base memory" is an integral part of the system board, so if it is faulty, then a new card system is required?
  I m afraid, Yes.
  The A60 takes support only one expandable memory slot!

  > Is there a way to "turn off" this memory installation & some external memory instead?
  The 256 MB internal memory is integrated on the motherboard and cannot be eliminated as the common memory modules.

  It really looks like a malfunction MB:(et le MB entier doit être remplacé.)
  But this is only my personal opinion and to be 100% sure that the verification of the laptop is necessary.

• Failed to start after installing the new memory module Equium A60

  I have an Equium A60 laptop with the following specs:
  P4 3.06 GHz
  256 MB Ram (including 64 MB ATI graphics card)
  30 GB HD
  Windows XP Home Edition

  The problem is the following; I bought a bar of memory in order to update my system. I bought a Kingston SO-dimm pc2100 512 MB. After installation of the memory of the laptop wouldn't start, after about 5 seconds after having turned it on, it turns off completely.

  If I remove the memory it starts up fine. I had tested memory and its ok so there seems to be a problem with the laptop itself. I'm confused, so if anyone has an idea of what might cause boot failure, I would be happy to know.

  Thank you very much...

  As far as I know the main reason for the failure of start is the use of non compatible modules.

  According to the specifications of the laptop, you must use PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51). If you want to buy the module Kingston (products of very good quality) check it please the Kingston MEMORY SEARCH

  Good bye

• Re: Equium A60 (PSA670) - upgrading memory

  Guys,

  My brother bought an Equium A60 a few years ago and is trying to improve memory. The current configuration of the memory is as follows

  Slot 0 256 MB
  Slot 1 is empty.

  I can't seem to slot 0, but I am able to access the location 1. I plan on 512 MB or 1 dildo DDR 2700 memory in slot 1. But I do not have the specsso of the motherboard I don't know what the memory configuration is supported.

  I tried the Toshiba site, but could not find all the manuals. Anyone here know the spces are to know where I can download manuals.

  Hello

  The maximum RAM capacity is 1280MB and the 256 MB internal memory and can't be exchanged for 1 location is available for the upgrade of memory.
  This means that you can install the module 1024MB of available memory slot and you need memory PC2700 specification.

  By the way: the user manual can be downloaded from the Toshiba website, that s no problem:

• Equium A60-155 - memory upgrade

  I currently have Toshiba Equium A60-155 with 192 MB of RAM standard, and thought of the upgrade or buy a new laptop and I'm looking for advice.

  I use my computer for music production mainly as well as simple tasks such as browsing the internet and funny game (mainly supercomputers, data sets with less emphasis on graphics etc.)

  Basically everything I want to know the weather bought 1 GB of RAM would be update worth it because at the present time, the performance is slow to say the least. It would make a lot of improvement to my laptop or I'd better save for a few months and buy a new computer laptop all together?

  Thanks guys :)

  Hi Claire,

  Increase the RAM in your A60: his current 256 MB will certainly benefit even if I suspect that the improvement will be not exactly breathtaking.

  I suggest using the monitor of the task (available in Task Manager, during the execution of some of your applications to see just what the memory usage you actually is.

  You currently have 64 MB of your existing RAM allocated for use of graphics, and you may be able to reduce this to 32 MB or 16 MB even to give you an additional display options in RAM capacity advances.

  The actual gain from adding additional RAM will come if you want to run multiple simultaneous applications.

  Kind regards

• Equium A60 with defective built in memory

  Hello

  I tried to recover my Equium A60 with the recovery DVD and it does not boot to windows. I tried to install a number of different versions of windows and the error messages lead me to the conclusion that the module memory is faulty. The system came with 256 MB of memory and it is hard because it is part of the motherboard. My question is if I buy a memory module and install it in the expansion slot will be it be prevented from working by the faulty memory?

  Post edited by: binkey1st

  Hey Kevin,

  There is unfortunately no way to isolate the faulty RAM on your motherboard. Even if you install a second module of RAM the system always tries to use the built in so defective module.

  You will need to take you laptop to an ASP for the defective replace module.

  Kind regards

  the main problem is that it is in a House of the student with 3 others and sounds me for the computer - a mother no-tech tips!

  Hello

  Unless you are an experienced user, you should allow Windows to manage this setting for you. Your problem may occur if the default settings have been changed somehow. First to diagnose your problem, you must follow these steps to ensure that Windows runs properly your virtual memory settings.

  1. find out how virtual memory is managed. Right click on 'My Computer' and choose 'properties '. Click the Advanced tab, and then under Performance click settings.
  2. which opens your performance Options. Click the Advanced tab. For private users 'typical' Processor Scheduling & Memory use must be set to "programs".
  3. under virtual memory, click change.
  4. which opens the virtual memory options. If you have more than one hard drive, make sure that your primary hard drive is selected under "Drive".
  5. under "Paging File Size for selected device" check the box indicating the size of the managed system.
  6. click OK in all the 3 boxes to close off these settings and restart your computer

• Equium A60 runs unstable - how can I upgrade the memory?

  I have a friend visit me who has an Equium A60 which is very unstable when she runs multiple applications. I checked and it has only 192 MB of RAM. Can be increased and if so how much. How many slots are there on this machine?

  She is currently in the USA and I checked on Toshiba USA website and cannot find this PC is listed, so it should only be sold in Europe. It would be useful if someone could tell me what kind of memory it takes so I could look for it here. She is a student and in great need of a stable computer for his studies.

  Thanks a lot for all the help in advance.

  Hello

  Of course you can upgrade the memory.
  I guess you have only 192 MB memory main because the laptop came with 256 MB internal memory and the 64 MB are shared by the graphics card! This is why only 192 MB are free.

  Anyway, as I said the laptop came with 256 MB internal and memory is not removable.
  So only one slot is expandable!
  If you can upgrade the memory for max 1280MB (256 MB + 1024 MB)

  You can use the modules:
  PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
  PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
  1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

  Do you know where is the crack?

  The slot is placed at the bottom of the device! The cover is fixed with a screw.
  Remove this screw and you will be able to open the slot and improve memory.

  PS; I think that upgrading memory is described in the manual of Toshiba that was preinstalled on your laptop.
  Alternatively, you can download this manual from the page of Tosh

• Equium A60-692: memory upgrade question

  Hi, I want to improve my memory. I wanted to add a memory of 1 GB on the extra slot but I wanted to be sure that I'm looking for, I don't know much about it and I want to ensure I have buy one that is compatible with everything. If someone knows something about this answer please.
  Thank you

  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 A60: PC2700 and PC2100 compatibility

  Hello again...

  Based on the MANUAL of USE Equium A60 I incorrectly ordered a SO-DIMM PC2100 200 PIN, I understand turns to the DDR266.
  Based on your good advice, I realize, I should have ordered DDR333 PC2700-SO-DIMM 200 PIN.
  In the store where the ram was purchased they said I could always install the ram but it works at the slowest speed of modules 2 memory.
  The questions are:

  Is this true? can I have on my laptop a PC2700 256ram (factory installed) and a race of PC2100 (purchased separately) 512ram together with no ill effects or damage to the machine?

  and also

  If it is true and a PC2700 and PC2100 modules can be on the same machine, will there be a significant decrease in performance?

  Thanks for your help and a very big thank you for the kind responses to my other questions :)

  Kind regards

  Confused newbie

  Hello
  Normally, you can run Ram PC2700 in collaboration with am Ram PC2100.

  Faster memory will adapt its speed to the slower.

  The PC2700 is downwards compatible way.

  So, in this case, you can buy this memory without problem

• Equium A60: ATI mobility issues

  I have an Equium A60 (PSA67E) with Celeron 2.80 ghz, 192 RAM, windows XP, and a 7000IGP ATI MOBILITY RADEON I bought jan 2005.
  I use the laptop and after 10 minutes a message appears and tells the driver has stopped working and I need a new. Which driver should I download for this stop happening? Ive looked to other people having problems with the infanite loop and its recommended location to download a bios updared will this help?

  I sent ATI and they said I need to contact toshiba

  It is also is so slow when I try and work on it, I've defragmented it but it works still slow. Would this becaure to have 192 RAM?

  Thank you for your help

  Hello

  First of all, I would recommend trying the page of the Toshiba driver graphics card driver:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp
  You choose unit and OS and download and install the driver.

  In my opinion, your device must use min 256 MB memory.
  But it is not only the problem of memory. Some software programs and background processes may decrease the performance of the laptop.

• Blue screen on Equium A60-155 - "Driver IRQ not less or equal" stop 0 x 0

  I have a model Equium A60-155 no psa67e-00300c8j and I got two years ago. She has always had a problem of crash with "IRQ_Not_less_or_equal. I did all the memory reinstall new habit, and updated the BIOS etc.

  In desperation, erased from the hard drive with a windows 2000 and reinstalled the recovery disk and it worked for about a month. When I updated the Explorer and Norton it crashed again. (updates are always a precursor) The laptop and an Explorer to work properly in safe mode. I removed all Norton a PROG from Symantec, but it remains the creases, but it's now a constant error. "Driver_IRQ_not_less_or_equal" with tech info * stop 0 x 00000004, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x00000D1, 0XF7A6A6C6.

  This is almost certainly a driver of windows operating system problem, it happens with any XP disk.
