• Satellite M40x-112 - need advice on upgrade HARD disk

  Hello

  I have a Satellite M40x-112, it is almost 3 years and the hard drive (TOSHIBA MK8025GAS ATA) has problems, I need to change it, but I don't know a lot of this so I ask for help and advice on which hard drive should I buy for this laptop.

  I searched and read, but I still don't understand... In my view, there are many interfaces like PATA, SATA, ATA, then I saw ATA-2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 also Ultra-ATA/100, EIDE, IDE etc etc... so I'm really confused...

  What interface using my laptop? What interface to use the new hard disk?

  And what hard drive 2.5 "is good? You will find a large number of companies, which is the best hard drives for laptops?
  My current hard drive is fat 80 GB. I would switch to 160 or 250, this guy do you recommend?

  Thank you all very much for your help,

  I understand that very well the different titles of interface HARD drive confused most people me too in the past ;)

  Then I would try to clarify some things;
  There are two important differences between the interfaces of HDD; IDE (ATA, PATA and also known as EIDE) and SATA (SATA).

  ATA - 5, Ultra ATA/66 means Ultra DMA 3, 4 (44.4, 66.7) means UDMA/66
  ATA - 6 means that ultra ATA/100 that means UDMA 5 (100) means UDMA/100
  ATA - 7, Ultra-ATA/133 means that UDMA 6 (133) means UDMA/133

  and so now ;)

  Your laptop supports the drive HARD IDE (ATA-6) Enhanced interface and you must use the IDE HDD (NOT of SATA)

  I'm not sure on the size HARD disk max because Toshiba doesn't provide official information on the max supported drives hard but a 100 GB maybe 120 GB of HARD drive might be possible.

  Best regards

• can I use an external hard drive to increase the disk space and memory on xp?

  I am considering an external hard drive of 1 TB to trasmet all files on the computer. There is little hard drive space and memory left. Can I use the external hard drive free space and can it will be installed via USB and use my operating system?

  You can use the external hard drive to transfer your data from your internal hard drive.  Cannot move system files (such as Program Files, Windows and swap files) well.  Looks like your use of the word 'memory' made reference to disk space - it normally refers to which an external drive would not affect RAM.  If you mean disk space, however, you can certainly free SPAC drive this way.

  I hope this helps.  Good luck.

• Need advice - questions of m8100n and stop Pavilion

  Hi all!

  I need some technical advice, because I do not know what way to go now with my m8100n Pavilion.  He began to act up in March of this year and died in total.  Once troubleshooting with support online from HP, it was determined that my motherboard (Nettle2) is bad and that it has replaced.  As it was out of warranty, we decided that a new Office was a more cost-effective solution, so the m8100n has set aside for me to tinker with later.

  Two weeks ago, I had the nerve to replace the motherboard myself.  I'm handy with all other aspects of the inside of a PC, but the motherboard was the "last frontier" for me.  I found a MCP61PM-HM on eBay that was v2.20 (thinking that the original motherboard had been improved since the v1.08 which was in my m8100n), so I bought it.  Replace the motherboard, I discovered that I had bought a Nettle3, who would continue to work with my m8100n but would lose a PCI slot.  No biggie!  I replaced the Nettle3 and all connected together and voila!  The m8100n puts as it is supposed to and no closing fast and constant.  I am a camper happy, right?

  Here's my problem: I installed Windows Vista on the m8100n using the motherboard Nettle3 (Yes, I know about the need for the new motherboard tattoo the recovery discs to work, but I wanted to use this office as a backup/file server, so I was not terribly concerned about the recovery discs) and everything seems to work very well.  However, after leaving the unit top during the night or during the day while I am at work, I find that the unit has stopped.  The green light at the back of the Unit indicates that the power supply is always powered, so I don't think that is the question.  Just for fun, I installed PC Wizard 2009 and SpeedFan to measure the temperature inside the device, and it doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary.  I did the other night while I was watching TV and suddenly noticed that PC Wizard 2009 showed that Core 1 (which I suppose is one of the mainstays of my AMD Athlon 64 X 2 Dual Core 5600 processor) climbed about 25 ° C to 60 ° C and 70 ° C, then 80 c, and finally almost 90 c, while Core 2 showed a steady 15-25 ° C.  I shut down the system to avoid any damage, but now I think the unit is closing itself because the processor overheats.

  Is it possible that one of the mainstays in my Athlon is defective and it is originally the stops, or is there something else I could be dominant?  PC Wizard 2009 tensions seem to be well, and temperatures inside the case seem to happen as well.  I don't want to give up this PC, because it seems that it is something simple that I could be dominant and am thinking that I might be too close to the issue to see what is really bad, and I'm hoping to pull out of the collective wisdom in these forums.

  Thank you in advance for any advice or suggestions that you might be able to offer!

  NEW UPDATE:

  After sitting the PC side for some time over the holidays, I started to do research on the processor AMD Athlon X 2 5600 +, given that all the indications suggest a heat problem with Core 1, who was leading in the PC by stopping.  After researching this CPU Model (Brisbane), it seems that Brisbane processors have a known issue with faulty temperature sensors core, which was probably, leading to a temperature reading fake being reported and causing PC stops.  This would also explain why the radiator or the CPU were always warm to the touch just after a shutdown due to overheating occurred.  I ordered a replacement AMD Athlon X 2 5600 + (not my workhorse PC, so I didn't need to upgrade the processor) and one both installed the CPU, memory, video card, DVD-R/W and finally the hard and everything seems to work normally again.  I ran a few stress tests on the PC from one day to the next, and the max reported temperature was 45 c 42 on Core 1 and Core 2.  It seems that the issue of the arrest was related to the CPU after all!

  Thus, after the better part of a year on and off with the PC, DIY replace the original motherboard to solve the problems of power cycle that I had originally, and replacing the CPU to solve overheating and issues which occurred after replacing the motherboard seems to have given new life to Pavilion m8100n.  What will make an excellent secondary / media server PC and will compliment my Pavilion m9500t nicely.  Thanks for all your help!

• The HD upgrade and memory issues - Satellite P200D - 10 p

  Don't cancel the warranty if I upgrade the hard disk and the memory of my laptop?

  Also is there anyway to merge two partitions on my hard drive into one without having to reformat the whole disc? For some reason, the hard disk was split into two. The installation of Vista on a 73 GB and I have 74 GB free on another partition.

  I want to upgrade the memory from 2 GB to 4 GB. What are the compatible memory modules (I model P200D - 10 p)?

  Hello

  By reformatting the hard drive you really upgrade the HD and increasing memory is a fairly simple process, so you should not invalidate your warranty.

  However if you open any part of the laptop including the crypt of memory you should make sure what you are doing and can get compatible memory, preferably set in correspondence cards.

  The software you need to merge partitions on your hard drive while running Vista is "Paragon Partition Manager. Symantec Partition Magic does not work with Vista. You don't need to reformat your hard drive, but you'd be advised to backup your critical data before the merger. A word of warning before you do anything, if the second partion maintains records of resettlement for Vista if you encounter a failure, then after you merged the two partitions, the files will remain but the relocation will not work. This is because when you insert the disc to reinstall it will search that partition. A round way, that it is to make an image of your drive before you do anything, then you can always copy of backup image and reinstall your Vista back to the factory setting.

  If you have noticed that I posted above ask you about a memory problem because I also want 2 GB to 4 GB, but it won't have it.

  Hope this helps

• Need information information and drivers for Satellite A100-332

  I recently bought a laptop satellite A100-332, but I can't find information on the websites of Toshiba or in search engines. Could someone help me please, any suggestions welcome.

  To my knowledge the Satellite A100-332 has a number PSAA8E-xxx and you must choose the A100 PSAA8E section pilots.
  Do not forget that you are using the installation order appropriate during the installation of the driver manually.
  For the most part an installation instruction should be available on the driver page and you will find more information about the order of installation.

• Guaranteed - just change hard drive on the Satellite A100?

  Hi people,

  my girlfriends A100-407 shows really bad cluster errors in Microsoft scandisk, the indexer service research plant always shortly after startup. The laptop is about 23 months, so this should be a matter for the guarantee.

  Because she really need the laptop for his study, I thought to simply by changing the disk hard so that she can use the laptop again immediately after reinstalling windows. Is it possible to send just the hard drive damaged in replacement?

  Thanks for the help!

  The best way would be if you go to a local ASP and ask them.
  They can order a new HARD drive and maybe you can get the defective HARD drive and take a new.

  Of course, you can change the HARD drive by yourself if you wish. You will not lost the warranty if you change the HARD drive.

• Can I replace the hard drive of my Satellite A100?

  I have a Satellite A100 - 033 PSAANE, running Windows Vista Home Basic Edition. The hard drive is 60 g. I save almost all of my data to an external hard drive, but nevertheless hard drive eventually won't have enough space for the growing number of programs that I have installed various temporary files, etc.. For example, I would like to install VirtualBox and run XP (Ido have a copy), and Linux and perhaps a few other systems operating within it, but that is likely to consume more of hard drive space I have available.

  Anyone know if it is possible to get out of my existing hard drive and replace it with another of higher capacity? Is this possible?

  I need to reinstall Vista on the new disc, from the emergency disk that came with the PC. I don't mind this, but will be Windows Vista "recognized" when I try to install the new hard disk?

  Sorry if these questions seem naïve, but I don't know how to put a new hard drive in a laptop computer, or even if it is possible. I bought the Toshiba in February 2007, which was just after Vista had been released. I had not given the choice of XP: Vista was the only Toshiba operating system provide at this time. I was assured that a 60G hard drive would be perfect for Vista, but I have to tell you that, in my opinion, that I was wrongly advised, and that Toshiba should never have released a 60G machine for use with Vista. Where my wish to have a hard drive with a larger capacity.

  Yes, you can install a larger capacity HARD drive. In my view, the A100 can take any size SATA 2.5 "HDD, so you should be able to successfully install a 250 GB or 320 GB.

  In terms of Windows, you can reinstall using the Toshiba Recovery disk came with the laptop.

  Directions for use:

  Remove the screws from the cover of the HARD drive based on the laptop to access the HARD disk.
  Pull the HARD drive out
  Transfer media cradle of HARD drive to the new HARD disk
  Slide in the new HARD drive and screw the cover of the HARD drive.
  Turn on the laptop and press F12 to access the start menu.
  Insert your recovery disk and choose CD icon to boot from it.
  Follow the prompts to install Windows.
  Connect your original HDD to the A100 using a USB adapter to restore your files/documents.

  PS. Don't forget to back up your important files regularly. HARD drives can fail at any time, since they have delicate moving parts, even when new.

• Upgrade memory of Satellite A100

  Hi all
  I have a satellite A100-583, which currently has 1 GB of ram and want to know which is the bigger it can be upgraded to and it is worth it, also need to be replaced with 533ddr2 or can it be replaced by 667 and who is a better upgrade?
  Can you also tell me what is SODIMM and if that makes a difference?

  Hello

  the machine can be upgraded to a maximum of 4 GB of main memory, and if it s worthy can per person answer, but only by yourself.

  Do you really need it? I think would be best that go you to 2 GB from you´re not a graphic designer who has larger images (which can be a few gigabytes high :)).

  As a normal vista/XP user, you need only 2 GB. You even won´t not recognize the jump of 1 GB, 2 GB of RAM or more.

  Regarding the modules FSB frequency: it doesn´t matter how often you use, you really won´t winning performance when you use the 667 mhz modules, if just to get a nice pair of 2x2gb with 533 Mhz sticks and just enjoy the 'speed '.

  Here´s a little explanation for S0-DIMM:
