• Beginner looking for the best upgrade memory for Tecra 8000

  Hello - I am currently looking to upgrade the memory on my Tecra 8000 the current 96 of at least 256.

  Is it possible that I can't find info on 256 MB extensions that are compatible

  I also want to upgrade my hard drive of at least 20 Gb, but I think it will be easier

  Any advice would be much appreciated

  Hello

  In my opinion, you should contact the Service partner and ask them what a memory module is compatible with your laptop. I found that PC100 128 MB (PA3005U) is certainly usable for Tecra 8000.

  Please be careful because all modules may not be recognized by BIOS correctly.

  It is possible that 256 MB RAM PA3069U - 1 M 25 is compatible but I'm not sure about this. Pick up information by the Service partner before buy you one.

• Help: TECRA 8000 Memory slot B mailfunction

  Hello
  I have a Tecra 8000 for 5 years.

  Now slot memory B seems to be no longer works:
  If it is filled, the computer does not start (are turned on, but no activity, even no toshiba logo screen)
  If it is empty, the computer starts OK with 128 MB in the slot A

  Issues related to the:
  1. is it possible to repair this and what should I check first?
  2. According to the specification, maximum memory for tecra 8000 is 256 MB. Is it possible to insert all the stack memory of 256 MB in the slot and leave the slot empty B?

  Thank you
  Michael.

  Hi Michael,

  In my opinion the slot B is defective. You're right about the capacity of RAM. Maximum memory is 256 MB of RAM. It is tested with 256 MB of RAM but apparent with both parts of memory because I have found no extension of memory 256 MB for Tecra 8000.

  It is possible that it works properly, but you must try it on your own risk. To play that's for sure, you need to connect a Toshiba Service partner!

  Good luck

• Memory config for Tecra 8000 PIII/500

  Can someone clarify this for me - I guess that the memory config for it would be the same as for a PC. Can I mix and match modules memory too long that I do not exceed the maximum of 256 MB. Apart from the conflict, a 133 MHz module would just run at the 100 MHz FSB speed.

  So I could add a module of 128 MB 100 MHz for the standard 64 MB DIMM equipping the Tecra 8000 do 192 Mb or a single 256 MB 100 MHz module... OR 2 x 128 MB...

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  as far as I know the Tecra 8000 has no FSB 100 speed!

  So pay attention to your turn to mixture.

  There are a few Tecra 8000 who BusTyp: 66 MHz Front Side Bus (1.6 volts).

• Tecra 8000: No memory available to connect with area map PC

  I have a Tecra 8000 running Win98 SE and use a card PCMCIA 3Com for my Internet connection. I was troubleshooting my computer on another issue and in the process disabled Cardbus PCMCIA Toshiba ToPIC controllers. After you have enabled these again once I am more able to communicate with the PC card and so unable to connect to the Internet.

  Card troubleshooting agent PC States: "Windows is not able to identify or use the inserted PC card device because there is no available memory area to connect with this device. You need to do an area memory available before this device can be used. Check the CONFIGURATION of your computer. A memory manager that is excluding the regions of superior memory between A000 and FFFF in the SYS file '.

  My Cardbus controllers are defined as follows:
  1 memory range - 0c 000000 - 0C000FFF
  2 memory range - 001000 0c - 0C001FFF

  My PC Card (PCMCIA) properties are as follows:
  Card services shared memory:
  Start 000c 0000
  End 00FFFFFF
  Length 00001000

  While the PC Card Modem is recognized at the Port, it can be communicated with and error message is shown as follows:

  ' Error 666: the modem is not plugged in or is out of service. "Connect a modem to your computer and try again.

  When I run the Diagnostics on the Modem does not respond to the exception of the following:

  "' Open Comm: cannot open port"

  Any help or advice will be appreciated.

  Have you tried to uninstall the Cardbus drivers? Not sure about the location in Win98 (in XP it is in Device Manager), go to "PCMCIA adapters" and uninstall all entries in controller.

  Reboot and Win98 will perform his routine "new hardware found". This is going to re - install drivers and with a bit of luck should solve your problem.

  Hello

  The material must be able to handle the Windows XP but I think that you will not find the Toshiba XP drivers for this device.
  Therefore, it will be very difficult to run Notepad with all Toshiba Tecra 8000 features.

  However, I think that it of possible to install Windows XP but the operating system will not work with maximum efficiency.

• Upgrade RAM and disk on Tecra 8000

  I have a toshiba tecra 8000 p2 266 mhz, 64 MB, 6 GB HD.

  My question is I want to upgrade the ram and hard drive. can someone tell me what is the maximum I can put in my laptop. IM aiming for a 256 RAM and 40 GB HARD drive... I want to upgrade the processor, but I don't think it would be possible. If Yes please let me know what is the maximum.

  Thank you guys

  Hello

  I found information that your device can handle with max 256 MB and compatible module unit Pentium II are:
  PA2060U 32 MB
  PA2061U 64 MB
  PA2062U 128 MB

  For user who have the Pentium III unit I'll also post this compatible module are:
  PC100 128 MB (PA3005U)
  PC100 64 MB (PA3004U)
  PC100 32 MB (PA3003U)

  HARD drive upgrade is always a little more problematic because of the maximum capacity that will be recognized correctly, but I assume you can use up to 20 GB of HARD disk without problem.
  Sorry, but I didn? t find accurate information about it.

• Tecra 8000 does not start after the BIOS update

  From one day to the other does not start my Tecra 8000 (400 MHz/256 MB BIOS 9.30 for years). After start-up, the disc starts to turn, but the screen including the backlight remains completely black, without red logo TOSHIBA BIOS is not accessible.

  I got a new mainboard on stock, so I replaced it, and it worked. Unfortunately now my WLAN card now did not work properly. I tried several settings of the BIOS with no results, so I decided to do an update of the BIOS from 7.50 to 9: 30. After the upgrade, I get the message "ROM WRITE successful, utility completed. LEADER BIOS: Tecra8000 v 9,30 ". Because what either kept silent, I pressed the power button to restart and heard a long and many short beeps (endless). I could interrupt what pressing the powerbutton for 5s.

  After turning on again I have the same problem as described in the first line :-( I can't get into the BIOS, but I can again update (with pressed F12). Once again these beeps.

  What to do with these beeps after average BIOS update? I replaced the MoBo connector LED with pension. Processor, memory, keyboard and HD has remained the same. So, before I start disassembling the machine, please notify, your help is very appreciated.

  Hello Joachim

  I'm not a technician and don t know what the beeps but I am afraid that the BIOS chip is damaged. Because of this, the unit is completely dead. Sorry, but I really don t believe you can do anything. Maybe the new motherboard again :(

• My Tecra 8000 can run XP Home?

  Hi all, just joined here and spent the last hour going through the forums.
  Ive recently bought a Tecra 8000 which has a HD 10 GB, 128 MB of RAM and Windows 2000. I thought that I was able to update everything and have since discovered that I can pass only safe RAM. I'll go 2 x 128 MB of ram, so I will be able to run XP home? Also, is there any other implementation of performance, I can do?
  Thank you very much for any answer

  Hello

  You can upgrade the memory of the Tecra 8000 to max 256 MB (2x128MB)
  These modules, you can use:
  PC100 128 MB (PA3005U)
  PC100 64 MB (PA3004U)
  PC100 32 MB (PA3003U)

  As far as I know this laptop came with the 6GB. You use 10 GB of HARD drive, well in my opinion, it should be possible to use a 12 GB but I'm not sure about bigger hard drives.

  However, it should be possible to install the hope of Windows XP on this laptop.
  On this site you will also find drivers that are needed:

• The upgrade of Tecra 8000

  Recently, I have a Tecra 8000 that I got from work they were buying new laptops. After you install windows 2000 on it, I gave it a spin. I was surprised how quickly that this little machine has.
  If anyone any ideas on how to get a free manual for it and upgrade tips? (graphics for example)

  Mikey'it,

  You can download the manual from the following link:

  http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tools/Tecra/T8000/manual/userman-T8000-en.zip

  The graphics chip is on the system board, so you will not be able to improve it. However, you can add more memory, for example.
