Problem upgrade memory on Satellite M40-142

Hi all

I am trying to upgrade my M40 - 142 (win XP) with 2x1GB memory modules. the initial memory is a single unit of 512 MB. When I remove and replace with 2 new modules of the system starts.
If I leave the original memory in the slot and add only a single module 1 GB system startup and total ram 1.5 GB.
If I use a single module of the new memories, the system is not to start again.

I tried to update the bios to the latest version but when I run the .exe is an error and I am not able to run it.

looking at the specifications of the motherboard should support the upgrade of memory 2x1GB.

Thanks for your help

I guess you used the memory modules live all simply not compatible.

The laptop s RAM can be certainly upgraded up to 2 GB of RAM (2 x 1 GB), but you must use simply compatible and God quality modules.

Cheap may be not compatible or defective.

  • Satellite M40 - 142, stereo audio input

    I can 'stereo' record through the microphone in Satellite M40 - 142?
    It is possible to have a line-input/output stereo or mono only?

    Hello

    As far as I know the line output (headphone jack) allows the connection of stereo headphones (16 Ohm min.) or a different audio output device. When you connect headphones, the internal speaker is automatically disabled. The input line (Jack Microphone) allows to connect a monaural microphone or other audio input device.

  • PCMCIA.sys problem with Vista on Satellite M40 135

    Hello

    (Sorry for my English)
    I tried to install Windows Vista on my Satellite M40-135. (I added the 512 MB of RAM).

    But, like all users, I have the problem with pcmcia.sys. Vista starts successfully when I delete the pcmcia.sys file.
    But I have a problem: I have a PCMCIA TV and I could not use it without the pcmcia.sys file...

    So I was wondering if Toshiba will download the new drivers for Windows Vista... This laptop is 'Vista capable' according to Microsoft System requirements...

    Waiting for your help...

    Unfortunately, it seems that the snipe is right.
    Can the hardware specifications of this laptop allows you to install the Vista
    but it seems that Toshiba has decided to publish no Vista drivers for each series laptop.

  • Upgrade memory of satellite L20-181

    Hey all

    I want to upgrade memory on my Toshiba Satellite L20-181.
    Now I have 256 MB and I want to add another stick of memory to 256 MB.
    Could you please inform me about the type of memory has this laptop?
    On the site it is said:
    Standard system memory: 256 MB
    maximum scalability: 2 048 MB
    technology: DDR2 RAM

    DDR2?
    A link with such a memory would be very useful.
    Also, anyway to buy memory online?

    Best regards

    Hello

    The news that you are quite right. Toshiba has tested this laptop with the memory modules to follow:
    DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
    512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)

    As you can see it's memory module DDR2 and if you use the part (PA.) to the Google number, you will find many online offereor where you can order this tested memory. I recommend buying the original or perhaps module of Kingston. On this way, you will be sure that the new module will be recognized correctly.

    Good luck!

  • Upgrade memory for Satellite L30-134

    I have a Satellite L30-134, which seems to work pretty slowly - I think that due to the large amount of photos and music from itunes.

    I wonder which is the best way to solve - buy a memory upgrade (no idea how to change memory well) or get an external hard drive?
    And if I change the memory I'll lose what is already saved on the laptop?

    I agree with Ganz most HARD drive will not improve performance but increase the disk space available HARD, it would be you can store more music and picture on HARD drive ;) files

    Upgrade memory also would not provide a performance gain of course performance could be a little better because most of the things would be handled directly in memory and not in time on the HARD drive, but generally it s not really noticeable.

    In any case if you want to improve memory, check this:

  • Problems upgrade memory ThinkPad Yoga 11th 20 d 9

    I recently bought a 20 d model 9 11th Yoga and so far I'm in love.  However, I wanted to upgrade memory 4 GB to 8 GB.  I bought 8 GB Crucial single DDR3 1600 MT/s (PC3-12800) as all the reviews I read said it was OK to use, however, every time I install the memory, and I try to charge the laptop at the same time it crashes.  I can run windows 10 perfectly without a problem until I have try to load it.  I can load cell ther when the laptop is turned off, but for the life of me I can not do coexist.  The original of the ram, I installed and everything works perfectly.

    Even if I'm in the bios, as soon as I plug the charger that will crash the laptop.  There literally rips on the screen and everything vanished.  As soon as I unplug it, the laptop works perfectly.

    I went back the memory and got a replacement and it does exactly the same thing.  I've updated the BIOS and the firmware for the battery.  I'm out of ideas.  Any help would be appreciated.

    I finally found one that works:

    Hi Ben

    Maybe you used the memory modules bad.
    As far as I know that you can upgrade memory for max 192 MB
    The 64 MB has been installed in an internal memory and cannot be deleted.

    I found these compatible modules:
    PA3003U - 1 M 03 32 MB
    PS3004U - 1 M 06 64 MB
    PS3005U - 1 M 12 128 MB

  • 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.

    Sorry for my English is not my mother tongue :).

    You can upgrade the memory on this laptop to max 1 GB.
    So I think you can use a module 200-Pin, 1 GB PC2100 slot (266 MHz) DDR SODIMM in one.

  • Upgrade memory on Satellite 1900-803

    How do you get the keyboard on this model to upgrade memory?

    To my knowledge, memory expansion module housing is placed at the bottom of the unit near the fan.
    The cover must be secured with a screw. Simply remove the screws and the cover and you will be able to improve memory.

    Hi all

    today I installed upgrading memory 2 x 1 GB on my R61i (7650-A6G), replacing it with the 2 x 512 MB standard memory.

    When I tried to restart the notebook nothing happened: only 4 "beeps", the screen is dark...

    I had to reinstall the standard memory of 2 x 512 and everything was OK

    How can I do to make this upgrade successfully?

    Thank you very much

    Thank you very much! following your suggestion, I discovered that a stick does not work; I'll ask the stick for a new provider.

  • Upgrade memory M50 satellite problems

    Hello

    I just tried to add 516 MB in my expansion memory slot, but the extra memory has not been recognized. Notepad starts fine, but only shows 465 MB of available space.

    I tried to change the original and new memory cards, and either card in a slot (0 or 1) on their own works as a 516 (which turned the cards and the two slots are working), but together they always show as only in use.

    Someone at - it ideas on what could be the problem and how to make so that he can use them together?
    Thank you

    The 465 MB is normal, because of the shared video memory. If I understand you correctly, the two connected modules, show only 512 MB?
    Perhaps you need to perform a BIOS update. Could help. You can find an update to the emea support & download page.

    The two modules comply with the necessary specifications? They should be PC2700 DDR - RAM.
