Limited Y510p of upgrade options?

What is the problem with the options of upgrade for the Y510p? I want to update a few things after I get mine and yet I was seeing some people say that there is an inhibitor that allows only the Lenovo brand upgrades? Is this true? Can someone give me a quick summary of the operation of the upgrades?

Well, the things you can upgrade usually inside a laptop are WLAN card, RAM, hdd and ssd. You can easily update (as long as the game of frequency/slot) of RAM and hard drive (as long as it is 2.5 "9mm h) without any problem at all. What about the wireless network card, some people say that bios of Y510p is not white, others say that it is (as do all the other laptops lenovo) and if this is true then you will not be able to update (or at least, until that someone publishes a bios with whitelist checking disabled). And for SSD part, right now, I don't know about the two types of connectors for SSD in Y510p (I do not speak on disk replacing HARD 2.5 "SSD option, if you want - this is the same as for the HARD drive regularly). They are: connector m2 with slot of 42mm h (here the pictures of him), in which you can put nothing, but lenovo 24 GB disk caching (and I think it will be extremely difficult to find a secondary market), and the other is... no connector at all, as reported here

  • How can they take advantage of the Windows 7 upgrade option?

    The Windows 7 upgrade Option begins officially today that gives a free copy of W7 with Windows Vista PCs and laptops, and I wanted to know how I can take advantage of this offer when buying on the Toshiba site?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I searched on some pages of Toshiba for some details about this upgrade option and found the same pages published by Luke.

    It should be useful.

  • Expiration of the Windows 7 upgrade option!

    Hi, I bought a Toshiba laptop a few months before Windows 7 came out, making sure he had a Windows 7 upgrade option. I didn't upgrade when W7 came out because there could be problems with a new version - obviously I thought that I would wait to see how it was received. In any case, a friend of mine convinced me the other day that it is much better than Vista and I had to upgrade, but now I thought that there was a time limit on the upgrade option, and it expired on 28 February - last Sunday! I can either spend - I missed the boat. I called the customer service, but all they could do was repeat what the web page - the option has expired so far go.

    I'm not at all happy about this because at no time I tells me that there is a limit of time on it. He didn't say it in product information, or outside of the box or what be provided inside the box. I had no idea that I had to do before the end of February for this - if I did I would have done it.

    As far as I'm concerned, I paid for Windows 7. The upgrade option came as part of the cost of the laptop without any mention of a deadline. Toshiba can not see it like that, but it's a reasonable person would believe according to the information provided. Did someone else upset about this? I hope posting here will inspire the action without me having to be made to the small claims court. There is no way that this may be eligible under the law of consumption. Imagine a person selling a book token that had a period of 6 months without telling them and without printing anywhere on the token! That may not be legal.

    If all goes well, there will be a few of us to exert pressure on this issue.

    Luke.

    Hello

    I have ordered the Win7 upgrade kit at the right time and now use Win7 on my Satellite A300.

    What I can say is that this forum is nothing but forum users and here you won't find any option just official statement by people like you and me.
    Another thing, this downloadable image. As far as I know that something like that can not be downloaded.
    What you can do now is to buy the Microsoft installation disc and install the clean version of Win7.

    I don't know what model of laptop you have, but all new laptops are supported Win7 and you can find all the important factors, tools and utilities on Toshiba download page.

  • Mini 210 help with upgrade options

    I have a mini 210-1142CL

    Someone has updated the motherboard on this model and if so, is it really make a difference in performance.

    Upgrade options are also somewhat confusing.

    The mini works fine for me and before that pitch for a newer model, wanted to explore options of upgrade of it for at least a dual processor at the fastest speed it can handle.  Right now, it is running.  Have disk space enogh with 128 GB of free space, 1 GB of RAM.   Running a 1.66 GHZ N455 chip.

    Not sure if a 1.5 GHZ dual chip will really make a substantial difference, or if it's time for new technologies.

    Thank you

    Stan

    Atom processors were a dead-end. However, the N550 1.5 ghz dual was one of the best. A bit like the world above 'little person' but still a honor:

    http://cpuboss.com/CPUs/Intel-Atom-N550-vs-Intel-Atom-N455

    Just to put it into perspective, here is a graph of the N550 vs some real processors.

    http://www.cpubenchmark.NET/CPU.php?CPU=Intel+Atom+N550+%40+1.50GHz

    I saw the N550 motherboards for $45 on eBay. Performance is perhaps 30% better than the single core 1.66.

    Your best upgrade is to install the 2 GB of RAM.

    If you feel compelled by the whole thing of netbook, I'd get a new laptop. The technology comes from the netbook to be a reference in the calculation of the story. Good idea at the time. A good current smart phone probably has as much computing power.

  • T400 upgrade options

    Hello

    I have a T400 (7417CTO) and looking for possible upgrade options.

    I know that some of the options available to drive HARD and memory. But I / m don't know for sure on the following...

    11 b/g wireless LAN Mini-PCIE III 11/n?

    I can replace the modem with a different card as wireless USB etc. ?

    TIA

    You could spend a T9900, which is the highest specification Core 2 Duo CPU.

    The best available WLAN adapter is the 5300, which requires three antennas in the screen; you need to install the yourself third or potentially borrow one of 3G ones.

    The Turbo and Wireless USB memory modules are interchangeable and are sitting under the letter B area of the keyboard.

    You can get a webcam, BT, etc if you don't have them, but that involves disassembly of the cover.

  • No upgrade option given when you try to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7 Home Premium with version complete DVD

    I am trying to upgrade to Windows 7 on my Lenovo x 200 tablet which is currently under Vista 64-bit.  My first attempt was with a version of Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit which, once started let me choose the upgrade option but then I notified (obviously) that would work to upgrade Vista 64 bit to 32 bit 7.  Since I also have a DVD of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit, I moved forward and put this disk to try to upgrade.  However, when I run the Setup it goes right to the choose what partition I want to put a new installation, do not allow me the upgrade option at all.  Why is this and how do I fix this if I can do an upgrade rather than a new complete installation then I won't lose all my programs and others and end up with a folder of big 'windows.old '?

    Which edition of Windows Vista are you attempt upgrade from?

    If they editions do not match, you will not be able to make a place in the upgrade:

    When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

    If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. In addition, you can make downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

    Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate

    Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate

    Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition

    Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise

    Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.

  • ORA-39700: database must be opened with the UPGRADE option

    Hello
    Let me explain the scenario.
    I have the oracle with 11.2.0.2 binary. This House is shared by multiple database (around 15 of database).
    Now, I must apply the PSU 5 for one of the database (allows to take the name of the test).
    So I installed 11.2.0.2 new home in the same server and applied the PSU-5 for thati oracle new home.
    I copied the spfile and password at home girl new oracle, associated to the TEST database. Now when I try to start the DB with option to boot he asks me to open the DB with UPGRADE option.

    Why should you start the DB with upgrade option because he was running with the same version in old House as well?

    I run catupgrd.sql once more?

    PSU patches usually do not require the database to be opened in UPGRADE mode. The obvious explanation is that the source database is not 11.2.0.2 but something lower.

    Hello

    Satellite or Equium P200D series was equipped with SATA HDD.
    This means that mobile supports the SATA HDD controller, which means that we must avoid any physical limitation.

    Usually, you can use any HARD drive 2.5 SATA
    But I think that 320 HARD drive should be good enough
    What do you think?
