Portege R700 - why no 64 don't bit OS?

Something I'm not quite suite.
I like the look of and the weight of the portege but doesn't understand why I can't buy one in the United Kingdom with the 64-bit windows professionals.

I mean 32-bit should only be able to treat up to 3 to 3.5 GB.
They are sold with up to 4 and all the ads suggest that they can be expanded up to 8 GB.
Or can anyone direct me to someone to sell with the 64-bit operating system.

Hmm the Portégé R700 - 106 has been delivered with preinstalled WIN7 64 BIT PROFESSIONAL and in addition you would get Win XP DVD.

But this can depand on R700 laptop model...

  • Portege R700 - how update Win 7 32 bit to 64 bit?

    After having upgraded the RAM 8 GB, how now move the installed "Windows 7 Pro" from 32-bit to 64-bit in order to make the best use of the extra memory?

    No "Tecchie", so please explain in simple terms!

    Thank you

    Hello

    You can not move from Win 7 32 bit to 64 bit.
    To use the Win 7 64-bit system, you must make a full, clean install of Win 7 64 bit.

    This would require the installation of all your software, tool, utility as pilots.

  • Portege R700 - upgrade Windows 7 32-bit to 64-bit and memory question

    I recently bought Portge R700 and am disappointed by the memory. I have a license of Windows 7 64-bit edition: what problems can arise if I update? Once installed, I can then use 8 MB of RAM.

    Moreover, I found the reagrding misleading Web site the option of using the 8 MB of RAM with the32-bit OS. I have 4Mb installed, years to see that only 2.86 MB is usable.

    I get "out of memory" messages and would like to know how to allocate more memory to live for video.

    Tom's right. If you want to use the 64-bit operating system, you must do clean install operating system. All drivers and tools specific to Toshiba and utilities must be installed Additionally one by one.
    If you need assistance with installing Win7 let us know.

    I put t know for what purposes do you use your laptop and what applications are important for your daily work, but, in general, I don t think you will have problems using 64 bit OS. Please keep in mind that all additional software is 64-bit capable and everything will be OK.

    As far as I know laptop user doesn't have the influence of the use of video memory and it runs automatically. It is unclear to me that you can change these settings and set how much RAM can be used for video operations.

    Anyway, Portege R700 is nice for laptop with sufficient power for daily use and also for use with standard applications. I don t think you ve bought this laptop for games.

I found the download for the R700 on the US site, and while this installs, it doesn't have the 32-bit driver for fingerprint reader in the R700. Can someone direct me to the correct download, or display the x 86 download the site of NZ?

  • Portege R700-17Z - upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello

    I currently have a Toshiba Portege R700-17Z.

    I want to increase the amount of RAM from 2 GB to 8 GB, and therefore I want to run 64-bit Windows. I was planning on running a clean reinstall, but 64-bit Windows built into this machine? Or I need a disk full?

    If I need a drive in its own right, any ideas on how to do it without an optical drive?

    Thank you very much!

    The first news on RAM upgrade: you're right. You can upgrade your Portege up to 8 GB and 4 GB compatible modules have part number PA3677U-1M4G.

    According to the specifications of the laptop your Portege shipped with WIN7 32 BIT PROFESSIONAL, but it is supported for Win7 64 bit. 64-bit drivers and tools specific to Toshiba and utility can be downloaded from the Toshiba download page.

    Now what is your decision? If you need assistance with installing the OS let us know.

  • Portege R700 - saver installed on Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello

    I was looking for a way to reduse noise from the fan on a Win7 Portege R700-174 and read to install 'Energy savings' from the Toshiba support site.

    Installation was OK, but I can't use ist because common Module is not installed. I get an error ' Code: 0 x 2. I already understand that 'Save energy' and 'Common Module' is not designed for windows 7. Why I was able to install it anyway?

    Now when I try to remove the 'save energy', I still have another error and uninstall fails.

    What can I do? Any help is appreciated!

    Concerning
    Michael

    Hey,.

    Toshiba common modules and energy savings are designed for Windows XP only! This software isn't compatible with Vista and Windows 7. In this case, you need to install the package of added value.

    In any case, not it s too late and you need to remove the installed software. If you get an error when uninstalling, I recommend the use of CCleaner to remove programs. CCleaner can also uninstall all the software that you have installed and it s freeware tool. Do a Google search for download and try to uninstall tools Toshiba again.

  • Portege R700 - original recovery image re-failed installation

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Portege R700 for years.
    As I have already some difficulties, I did a reinstall it a few years since the recovery partition. Directly.

    But, a few days ago, I had some problems with my portege.
    HARD drive seems to be broken because it making the noise and was really, really, really,..., very slow.
    Yes, after you perform a backup of the data for hours and hours (remember, it was really, really slow), I run a complete reinstallation of "recovery partition". It seems to be good, but... never finished the process, with the same noise from HDD and slower HARD drive IO.

    OK, my own diadnostic: change the HARD drive.
    This done, and by using the recovery DVD Toshiba just bought (Yes cannot find the DVD of burn of factors), I have the same question.... The recovery process does not end even if im waiting for days...
    And I have the same HARD drive noise. With the new!

    In order to have an MSDN license, I installed a Win7 Pro 32 bit, but not the Toshiba one.

    And he is running for days without any problem!

    But I have to reinstall all the drivers and software supplied by Toshiba.

    Obviouly I prefer to find what exactly is the problem with this Portege and reinstall the version of Toshiba Windows 7 Pro.

    So, if someonre read the story until the question is: NO IDEA?
    How to do a HW diagnosed? How to identify the exact problem?

    Thanks for your help.

    Joel

    It is really strange. You bought brand new HARD drive or you use a old and used as a replacement?
    Have you used recovery disks in the past with success? I mean maybe it's the recovery disc a troublemaker.

  • Portege R700 - Touch Pad, ecoUtility and presentation of the key does not

    Hello

    I got a Portege R700 with Windows 7 64 bit.
    This machine starts very slowly after the log in user mode only.
    The system is waiting for 1 to 2 Minutes before you can work. In administrator mode erverything is fine and fast.

    Thus our directors thought it might be the Toshiba Software and a lot has been disabled or uninstalled.
    Because this did not help and because I thought that it migt be cause of Kaspersky, I started to reinstalled and update the software from Toshiba. Most of it works now. Shortcut keys does not work, then I start TfcRst.exe via autostart now, even he would somehow it would be better in 'systemecommencent '.

    But still some keys do not work. The Tablet touch power switch, just above the touch pad does not work.
    The Fn F9 works. And the two keys to the right upper corner (ecoUtility/off button and the presentation-Key) do not work. In all three major, I get a pop up saying "this function not taken in charge.

    Anyone has any idea of this?

    Thank you

    Solomon_de

    Hello

    Why you n t try to restore the operating system back to the same state until the administrator has removed or uninstalled the Toshiba Software?

    Generally speaking the VAP (value added package) controls the multimedia keys.
    Also the FN keys require the VAP and Flash memory card Support utility.

  • Portege R700-19 t - new RAM-> start is no longer

    Hello together,

    so I bought two new RAM sticks for my old laptop
    Toshiba Portege R700-19 t

    But since I installed them, the machine does not start in an operating system more.
    The installed Windows 7 64 bit goes to a black screen before the windows at Startup logo (even in safe mode). And after a few seconds, the fans will quickly but nothing seems to happen.

    The next thing I tried was a (12.04) ubuntu live dvd. But it does not either. No error message or anything, just an automatic restart after a few seconds of black screen.

    The next thing was memtest86 + v4.20:
    It crashes immediately sometimes a black screen and sometimes at this http://i.imgur.com/eJqIyDp.jpg .
    I tested my new two sticks together and alone, still the same problem. The old ones that work perfectly and not crash of memtest.

    In the BIOS is the only thing on the memory and then it sees the correct "Total memory size 8192 MB.

    Plug portable-mem from toshiba:

    link to the shop where I bought it: https://www.alternate.de/G-Skill/SO-...roduct/1154622

    In my understanding of both new sticks should work well with my laptop, or am I missing something?

    concerning

    For me, the question is clear enough; the laptop does not start because of new RAM modules.

    The new RAM modules are not totally compatible, or the RAM modules are defective.

    I recommend you test an other modules; for example modules manufactured by Kingston.

  • Portege R700-S1321 - cannot set the resolution of 1366 x 768

    I have exactly the same problem, as shown in:

    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=64809

    The resolution of the laptop to random times and intervals seems to support a maximum of 1280 x 700, which translates into a 2 inch black bar on the right side and the button start Windows 7 off the screen.

    Currently its stuck in the resolution of the screen and no matter what I may not make it back to normal 1366 x 768.

    External monitors very well with the laptop work.

    Its 2.20 BIOS execution that seems to me later.

    It seems that the intel driver must get some information that is incorrect.
    Research on different forums and using moninfo, I see that the internal display does not support EDID and settings appear to be set by the registry somehow.

    I also tried to make an EDID override by creating an inf file that is customized with Moninfo, but appears not to the question of the effect.

    I also tried to restore from the recovery many times discs without success.
    During the installation of windows occurs, the screen is fine.
    When Toshiba additional programs are added to the screen returns to the 1280 x 700.
    I suspect that what happens when the graphics driver intel is installed.

    If I boot the laptop in safe mode resolution is 1366 x 768, which seems to suggest that it is the driver who has a problem.

    Anyone else had this issue and understand how to fix it? I see also that intel do not support EDID override.

    Any idea is appreciated. Thank you.

    > If I boot the laptop in safe mode resolution is 1366 x 768, which seems to suggest that it is the driver who has a problem.

    I think you are on the right track, and I think that his untimely pilot.
    That's why I recommend you to uninstall the Intel graphics driver in Device Manager.

    PORTEGE R700-S1321 was equipped with the Intel® Core i5 - 520 M processor and this processor supports the Intel® HD graphics card

    The latest Intel HD driver can be downloaded directly from the page of Intel:
    [Driver for Intel Core with Intel HD Graphics processors | https://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Graphics& ProductLine = graphic + portable + pilots & ProductProduct = Intel % C2% AE + Core E2% 84% A2 + processors + with + Intel % 2 C % AE + HD + Graphics & ProdId = 3231 & LineId 1101 = & FamilyId = 39]

    I need to download the zip package.
    Then you can install the driver through Device Manager by using the Advanced installation procedure. This allows you to link directly to this zip package. Windows system would automatically take the driver. After restarting again you that would have settled the last drivers and you should change your resolution.

  • Cannot use 8 GB in Portege R700

    Hello

    I had 2 x 2 GB PC3 10600 ram in my R700 (i3) running Windows 7 x 64.

    I have a few sticks of 4 GB of ram, I wanted to update my laptop 8 GB total.

    I put in the memory which consists of:
    1 x 4 GB PC3 12800
    1 x 4 GB PC3 10600

    The laptop comes on the screen where it says "Starting Windows" and looks like it freezes before windows animation.

    If I try to use 1 x 4 GB (two speeds) and 1 x 2 GB, then Windows starts fine, but there is a problem when I use both the 4 GB sticks.

    I tested the ram with Memtest and they pass the tests.

    If I put the bars of 4 GB of RAM in a R840 (Windows 8.1 Pro), it starts very well.
    If I put the bars of 4 GB of RAM in a R700 (i5 running Windows 8.1 Pro), this also starts very well.

    If I try to put in the sticks of 2 x 4 GB of ram in the R700 i3 and trying to install Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 then happens to the screen that says "Windows is loading files" and the progress bar ends but then the screen goes all white and the fan runs but nothing else happens.

    I have 8 GB of ram in the R700 i3, so I don't know that it supports. The BIOS detects it has 8 GB of ram when I inserted them and the BIOS is updated to the latest version which is 2.20 iirc.

    Anyone can shed light on the problem?

    Hi Borito

    If the specification states that your model of laptop can handle with 8 GB of RAM, that we should not discuss this topic.
    By RAM upgrade is important to use 100% compatible and two modules of identical RAM (same specifications).
    I tested it on my machine using too much standard and a cheap RAM and my machine was dead. With two modules of identical RAM, everything is OK.

    Can you please send the name of the exact model of your laptop Portege (R700-xxx) and I'll try to find the exact reference for 4 GB of RAM for this model of laptop.

  • Portege R700 - quick as lightning!

    Despite some reports of 'flaky' and similar operation, I decided to tear off my HARD drive and slap a SSD and W7 Pro 64 bit on my portege R700-184

    flippin heck its the thing to the top fast!

    I used a base of sandforce OCZ Vertex 2 120 GB drive and the Retail Media to install the 64-bit windows. It's with any other firmware or software update for the SSD or Laptop, so right on the box

    Before starting from cold to 95 seconds, down to 23 seconds on the SSD used! and he wakes up from his sleep in 4 seconds! VERY impressed!

    Similarly the 64-bit operating system has improved my WEI scores the CPU is 6.5 to 6.9, the RAM of 5.4 to 5.9 and obviously the SSD took a hard drive of 5.9 to a burning 7.4 :-)

    excellent upgrade in the embryonic stages, I will present long-term stable after that I have all my drivers and running upward and restore my files!

  • Portege R700 Wont close or install W7 SP1

    Hello

    I have a Portege R700 for a few months and then only a brilliant notebookI'm having some trouble that I can't find the answer to. I thought I would post the two they could possibly be interrelated.

    First of all, when I am running on battery only my computer usually off. It gets to the Windows stops screen and just hangs. After all of 10 minutes, I have generally give up and manually turn off the machine by holding the power button. This is my desktop computer, it is very rarely used on battery so I have not really worried about it but I want to fix. Also when I use my machine on port replicator, at the office, when I shut down my computer what it comes up with the screen that a program is not responding and force close. I find it strange because there is no program running in time (of course there is probably a background running program).

    The second problem I encounter is that I am trying to install Windows 7 SP1 via the full download of the Microsoft Web site, but when it comes to install the update I get the following error:

    ERROR_SXS_ASSEMBLY_MISSING (0 x 80073701)

    I did a search on the web for answers, but all of the patches described did not work. My only other option might be a complete reinstallation of Windows that I hated doing.

    If anyone has solutions that would be great.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Why you are not allowing Windows Update to install updates to the machine? This method usually solves 90% update install problems as the update manager download only the sections of service pack required for your installation/version/version of windows 7?

    How does closing? by pressing the power button or by using the windows menu Start button stop?

    When on the port replicator the error message said exactly? What is the name of the program?
