NB200-002: unable to use 2 GB of RAM!

I have a NB200-002 (PLL20C) and can't seem to get my system to recognize any more than 1 GB RAM stick.

The Toshiba Canada plug, it is said that the maximum RAM for this netbook is 1 GB, but that I don't understand, is that it seems that all the other versions of non-Canadian of this netbook can accept up to 2 GB of RAM. I'm just completely out of luck here just because I bought my netbook to the Canada!

I tried to install a spare 2 GB PC2 - 5300 (from Patriot Memory) stick, I had, but the BIOS and Winver both just end by saying that I have 1 GB installed.

Another point interesting is the fact that my netbook comes with a chip of PC2-6400 when the specs say it works on a 5300. Now, I understand that these chips are retro-compatible but I would have more chance if I bought a 2 GB 6400 key? I know this probably won't make any difference, but I'm hoping against hope in desperation...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would try another stick of RAM. I have the American model, purchased at Best Buy and it came with PC2-6400 and I swapped the 1 GB and put a 2 GB PC2 - 6400 in without problem.

Now, I guess it's possible that Toshiba CA has done something for the BIOS so the Max is 1 GB of RAM, but I doubt...

    Have you installed the VAP?
    The VAP means added value package and it contains the tools that control the multimedia keys.
    If you have already installed this PPV, I recommend this reinstall again.

  • Going to replace my hard drive, I'm unable to use my OEM of Windows Vista 32 - bit with the new drive copy?

    I plan to replace my current hard drive (which is functional, but not surprising in the first place) with a Solid State drive, which will help to my Alienware Area-51 m9750 notebook.  I find a reader fully compatible solid state, but I'm not there purchase Alienware.  I'm currently under Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit), and I still have the recovery DVD used to reinstall the operating system.  I reformatted my hard drive several times using this disc, each time that the deletion of the whole score and starting from scratch.  Every time I did it, I'm never asked to activate my copy of windows, mysteriously turned on when I boot on my new install of Windows for the first time, without even plugging the cable Ethernet first, and my house has no wireless network.

    I wonder, if/when I install a new hard drive, will have a different experience somehow in regards to Windows activation?  I'm unable to use my OEM of Windows copy at all?  Alternatively, my windows mysteriously will activate itself without ever seeing the internet as it does now?

    I love installing Windows and then do not need to activate it, and I hope I have that experience when I install my new hard drive.

    I just want to know what to expect in terms of my ability to use my copy of Vista OEM, and what process I have to go through to make it fully functional.

    Thank you very much!

    The physical hard disk (solid state or record) is not serious for the operating system that is installed on.  As long as the drive is a standard interface and does not require special drivers not work (and most don't), you should have no problem.
     
    The recovery disks you are using are set to read specific information about the motherboard and as long as there is this particular information, that it is looking she will be triggered and doesn't have to go online to activate as the retail of Windows is required to do.  The only problem with this type of activation, it's that if the motherboard fails ever it should be replaced with a similar brand and model or autonomous activation fails and the operating system is an OEM version that is related to this motherboard and cannot be enabled on a newer replacement.

" I followed the same but unable to use fancy smiley applications... Please guide me.

    Thank you best regards &,.

    After you follow these instructions to set the code UCS2, did you do a reboot of the device?

    • Perform a simple reboot on the BlackBerry this way: with smart BlackBerry poweredphone, remove the battery for a minute and then reinsert the battery to restart. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most defects and errors of operating system, and you will lose any data on the device doing so.

  • I'm unable to use windows applications in my college. Is it because of the proxy connection?

    I'm unable to use windows applications in my college. Is it because of the proxy connection? Each app says I'm not connected to a network. Please let me know how to encounter this problem.

    Hey Brad,

    1. What is the accurate and complete error message you get?
    2. don't you make changes to the computer before this problem?

    There could be various reasons why you will not be able to connect to the Windows store.

    I suggest to disable the proxy server and check.

    (a) press the Windows key and the R key to open the prompt to run . Type inetcpl.cpl in the run prompt and press to enter.
    (b) in the 'Internet Options' window that opens, click on the tab "connections" at the top.
    (c) click on 'network settings' at the bottom of the section "connections."
    (d) if the "Proxy Server" box is marked with a check, click it to uncheck/disable.
    (e) click on 'Ok' to close the window "local area network (LAN) settings".
    (f) click on 'Ok' to close the 'Internet Options'.

    I also recommend a complete analysis using the antivirus program installed on the computer or by using the Security Scanner from Microsoft that this problem can also occur by malware.
