Need help with memory of Satellite Pro A60

Hello!
I bougth an A60 sitting Pro and in the manual it says that normally have "256 or 512 MB on the motherboard and PC2100 256, 512 or 1024 MB modules can be installed in the memory slot expansion" but mine has only 192 MB of RAM, as I saw it on the properties of the system, and whenever I look to upgrade memory in different websites it gives me the opportunity of PC2700 for A60 series.
Personally, I have no idea of what is a pc2100 and if it has no difference with pc2700 but I don't want to buy the wrong.
Another question: if I install 256 MB it means I'll have 256 or 256 + 192 (which is what I have now)?
Thank you!!!

Hi Catherine,

Your A60 features a 256 MB RAM module in slot 1. The reason why your properties appear 192 MB is that 64 MB is reserved for your graphics card in the BIOS. This has the effect of reducing your available RAM 192 MB.

You can indeed adapt extra RAM if you wish, but be sure to get the RAM memory modules that are compatible with your A60.

Your memory after the upgrade will be slot 192Mo 1 so that no matter what size of RAM module you fit in slot 2.

  • Upgrade memory on Satellite Pro A60

    I upgraded a Pro A60 with a memory of 1 GB upwards but the general tab panel /System/ watch still have 192 MB of RAM. This limits me downloading some software of safety of BT Yahoo.

    Someone can advise on how I can make the machine to recognize the new RAM or is the 192 MB RAM memory different the new upgrade memory note?

    If you use the incompatible RAM module, it is logical that system cannot recognize it properly. I don't know who is the manufacturer of this RAM 1 GB module, but if you want to use a consistent pick up some info on 1024Mo PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G) or check web page of Kingston.

  • Need help to retrieve the Satellite Pro C850 - 1 k 3

    Hello

    I'm new to this forum, but I really need someone's help that my laptop has had a virus on it, and I have to do a complete uninstall of windows 8, (it was preinstalled, so I don't have a restore disc)

    Every time I try to uninstall windows it says that some files are missing and to insert a disc of recovery of some sort that I did not.

    How can I do this?

    Thanks in advance for assistance.
    PS: I tried to create a recovery with a blank dvd disk but it says insert USB pen, I did not.

    > I tried to create a recovery with a blank dvd disk but it says USB pen insert, I did not.
    Usually, you can choose between USB flash memory and the DVD disc.
    Did you change this option before trying to create the recovery media?

    > When I try to uninstall windows it says that some files are missing and insert a disc of recovery of some sort that I did not.

    I have no idea what you tried to do, but the fact is that if you want to retrieve the laptop, you must use either the Toshiba recovery media (USB key or DVD disc) or recovery of HARD drive option, you can try:

  • Need help with memory blackBerry smartphones internal. Please read

    I had the storm for about 3 months and im really frustrated and confused because don't know how else to use it as a phone and email verification. I want to use it as a PDA, but I don't know how!  I tried to download apps but after 4 apps, he told me that the phone has no more memory to download more.  I'm sure that the storm is made to have more than 4 apps, so I know im doing something wrong.  Please help... I want to get the most out of this phone bc I like it.

    Thanks in advance

    PS Ive also tried to transfer the applications on the external memory card, but I can't figure out how.  the only thing I can put on the external memory are music files.

    Your AppMemory is very low... I recommend the following:

    • With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes. See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    See what increases your free AppMemory. You may need to do it on an occasional basis - some do it once a day just to keep things as clean as possible. Others (like me) use an application called quick sweater to simulate a batt restart - shoot once per day.

    Regarding apps how it can manage - it is not a responsible question. It depends on the size of applications. Applications more large = less can be installed. Smaller apps = more can be installed. So it is really not possible to say that only 4 or 5 applications can be installed.

    Best!

    When you press the button, toshiba power setting should appear without any messages. I put the settings directly from the Toshiba utility so the message you get to open the windows power management reveals that there is a problem.

    Try to reinstall toshiba power saver utility from recovery cd or you can download it from download drivers on the official website.

  • Need help with expression Encoder 4 Pro.

    Hello

    Just bought the Expression Encoder Pro 4 from the Microsoft Web site. Before purcasing, I read the details, and everything goes to the hardware and software configuration.

    The main reason for the purchase is to encode the videos as described below: that is a copy and paste into the page of details during the purchase process.

    "Encode content in the format H.264 industry standard using a range of profiles, including Baseline, Main and High, for display on many devices, including Microsoft's Zune and Apple iPod.

    My problem is that after more than 200.00 dollars, I can't do anything else that the VC-1 Advanced encode in a widows media format.

    Here are the steps that I go through.

    (1) freedom of Expression Encoder Pro 4.0 SP2

    (2) import a WMV file

    (3) change the IIS Smooth Streaming output format (MP4 selection gives the same error)

    (4) video to any format change H.264 gives the message below

    This function is only available in the full of Expression Encoder Pro features. And there is a link sends it me in a Web page to buy the same product again.

    If I select Help / about > This copy indicates that it is (without Codecs)

    So, where are the codecs and why they are not if the description, above, indicates that the copy that I'm purchaseing is capable of transcoding/encoding to MP4 and H.264 formats.

    Thank you

    I don't know the first thing about software update, but Safari browser (currently version 5.1.10) displays funny websites, and I can't download some plugins. According to me, because my laptop is so old?

  • Need help with drivers for Satellite P205-S6267

    I think I have all the drivers for my laptop, but I can't control the brightness of the screen or access capabilities of standby power. I downloaded tons of drivers power saver, and none of them work. Someone please help. I am running XP and the only driver I found is for Vista. I've been at this for two days... Please write to me at:

    [email protected]

    Hello

    Just FYI: whenever you need a driver download from http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_home.jsp?

    As you can see your model of laptop is not yet supported for WXP and I guess you have to wait because you need precisely designed these tools and utilities for your laptop model. In the meantime, I think you can live without brightness control option. In my opinion, it is not so important. Also try to use the Windows power saver options. I'm sure you can use them up to what Toshiba offer WXP tools and utilities.

    If you follow this [LINK: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU] you can reach the site to download drivers.

    But I think they should update the section soon and allow us drivers...

  • USB devices not seen on Satellite Pro A60

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with my laptop Satellite Pro A60 running Windows XP Home: it is simply not to see all devices at all. Devices (USB, fan keys) are to be supplied with electricity, but I can find no trace of them on the computer anywhere. It is even not complain that they are not recognized - it's as if they were not there. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers of hub USB root/controllers, but that has not helped.

    It is the latest in a string a glitches that can be helpful to know: a few weeks ago, the ATI Mobility Radeon 7000 IGP suddenly caused windows crash at boot time. I could just sort the problem by updating the bios and reinstall the ATI drivers (all toshiba). It is not of course the relevance, but after the bios update I also improved the 6 F-secure antivirus software. XX to 7.01.

    Usually, I try to get as much as I can by reading these forums but I'm not a guru of computing and on this one, I'm out of ideas - because Windows is not identify any fault, I don't even know what to look for on google... Someone has an idea?

    Thank you very much

    Philippe

    Hmm, you said that you have already reinstalled the drivers of USB controllers/root hub.

    But maybe you should try to make this again as a result of this procedure;
    -Disconnect all USB devices
    -go to the Device Manager and change the view to display hidden devices.
    -Open the tree of the USB controller and remove all controllers.
    -Restart the computer and wait until the OS has installed everything again.
    -Then plug the USB devices to the USB ports for laptop

    If this does not help, it would be desirable to recover the laptop with the Toshiba Recovery CD supplied.

    Good luck

  • Memory should what upgrade I buy for my Satellite Pro A60?

    Hi, I have a Satellite Pro A60 PSA65E, who currently has 192 MB of RAM and 2.8 GHz Celeron processor.

    My problem came when I tried to install Adobe Creative Suite 2 on it, but it would not allow me to do so because he needed 384 MB of RAM to run it. I was wondering if someone could tell me what RAM upgrade is compatible with my machine and if it inserted in another port or if I have to get out the old and replace?

    Thank you
    Donald

    Hello

    your laptop is 256 MB internal memory, I'm not sure why it shows only 192 MB. This internal memory can be replaced only by a technician. But you also have a currently unused memory slot, in which you can place a maximum of 1024 MB of RAM.

    Here are the modules from Toshiba lets you:
    PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
    PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
    1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

    Good bye

  • Upgrade memory from 256 to 512 MB on Satellite Pro A60

    Just want to confirm really what I got caught once before buying the bad memory. I read another thread, so am sure I'm ok with that.

    OK, the RAM, I need for the upgrade of the Satellite A60 Pro is:
    200-pin SODIMM, DDR PC2700 Unbuffered CL2.5 (Non - ECC)

    Maplin:
    http://www.Maplin.co.UK/search.aspx?criteria=A31CG&doy=24m12
    A31CG DDR 2700 512M SODIMM

    Crutial
    http://www.crucial.com/UK/store/mpartspecs.asp?mtbpoid=04FE6CD8A5CA7304
    512MB 200-pin SODIMM, DDR PC2700 upgrade for the Toshiba Satellite Pro A60 Series notebook

    I don't think that 1GIG RAM is needed for my daughter :-)

    Note: On my main PC, I got defective Crutial Ballistix memory, but Crutial were very good replacing it for free.

    Thank you and a Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all of you on this forum.

    Ah, just another thing I'm not clear on.

    The NEW RAM replaces the existing, in other words I have remove the 256 and replace it with the 512? Reading the user manual, it is not clear and talks about expansion module. Probably, it would be obvious if I opened it to the top, but I'd rather not at this stage.
