Question about upgrade CPU on Portege M100

On my Portege M100.
Can I switch my Banias 1.2 Ghz chip to a Dothan 2.0 Ghz chip now that BIOS 1.5 supports Dothan?

Hello

I agree with robin. Computers mobile processors are usually not extensible for different reasons. One of the serious reasons is the BIOS compatibility and the second reason is the dissipation of heat.
Faster CPU produces more heat, and this could lead to overheating problems.

To cut this story; upgrading the CPU is not possible

  • Question about upgrading CPU for Satellite A30 104?

    Hello

    My Satellite A30 104 recently came at the end of its warranty and had to open the heatsink for cleaning, and seeing that the CPU was available, I wonder if there should be (likely) to upgrade.

    The processor is a Celeron 2.6 GHz (Northwood). I'm no more grunt, I would prefer a more low-power chip, while the cache L2 much bigger of a Pentium 4 is also desirable. I would be very grateful if someone could give advice if upgrades are likely available, and if so the chips would be appropriate? If I can give any more useful technical information, please ask.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Usually it s not advisable to upgrade the CPU on laptops, because no one can tell if the laptop runs correctly and stable after the upgrade.
    The heat and the temperature inside the laptop could be a serious problem.

    In any case, I think that the laptop supports an Intel 852GME chipset.
    http://www.Intel.com/products/chipsets/852GME/index.htm

    The Intel 852GME chipset is optimized for the Mobile Intel Pentium 4 processor, has a main bus at 533 MHz and up to 2 GB memory DDR 266/333/200 at high speed.

    But I'm not sure about m making it s 479 or 478

    Hello.

    I have laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-529 and I want to change my Celeron M 380 for something better, but I don't know what the CPU can insert to this computer.

    When I was looking for similar templates I got same CPU with the same chipset. I don't know how to take apart my Toshiba CPU and change, I also have the latest BIOS.

    Technical details are in links with screenshots.

    Hello

    As Akuma already written, you can choose a CPU of the other models. Look on the lower side to identify your model number.

    But don t forget that the CPU upgrade is risky. No one has tested this before CPU in your laptop and my cause overheating or something else. This upgrade is official not supported: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  • Satellite L30-134 - question about upgrade CPU and video performance

    can anyone help? see that are some similar configs on this site... then maybe you can help me
    I'll try editing a xp 64 bit (curently runing xp sp3 32-BIT)

    > I'll try editing a xp 64 bit (curently runing xp sp3 32-BIT)
    Forget that don t recommend install Win XP 64-bit.
    Why? Because the Win XP 64 bit was not so popular as Win 32 bit or Vista/Win 7 64 bit and you won't find many drivers for Win XP 64 bit.
    Stay with XP 32 bit or you can change to Win 7 64 bit.

    Regarding the graphical issue;
    Have you noticed that also using the old CPU (Intel Celeron M Processor 410)?
    If this were not the case, then I guess this could be a problem between the CPU and BIOS.
    Otherwise I would recommend upgrading the graphics card driver.

  • Question about upgrading CPU on Y40 - 80

    I just bought a gaming laptop Y40-80, while I did not know that the character of 'U' on behalf of the central processing unit means low power, although whether an i7 processor, it's too slow for games.

  • Question about upgrading CPU for Satellite L30-101

    Is it possible to upgrade my processor from a 1.44 to what higher?

    No, there is no way because:

    -It s too expensive
    -It s complicated Exchange when you´re no technician for laptop
    -you won´t win any show (especially when the performance vs price comparison)

    Instead update your RAM and your HARD drive since that these components are comp. evolutionary and better will give you better performance.

    Hello Constantin

    The answer is that no, it is not possible to replace the processor in a Toshiba laptop. The processors used in laptops are connected to the motherboard using a process called TCP (tape carrier package). It is a method of permanent connection and is used in the interest of miniaturization and heat dissipation.

    Can't believe that! As far as I know this laptop was shipped only with a 512MB DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM module.
    Of course you can improve the memory up to 2 GB using two modules 1024Mo.

    Well, what say, the CPU is hit you can find easily by using a material like Everest diagnostic program. It would provide useful information on your laptop hardware.

    But to be honest, I'm very skeptical as to upgrade CPU on laptops.
    If you have already modified several processors on laptops so you know that's not very simple and more complicated as the CPU upgrade on desktop computers.

  • Equium P300-190 - Question about upgrading the processor

    Hello

    I just have a question for my CPU PC Toshiba laptop, I have a can of Equium P300-190 full to give model number if necessary the cpu is one supplied with the laptop.

    My question is I want to upgrade the processor but do not know which would be the best option and there are limits with the BIOS, etc. on board.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Probably it is not known to you that upgrading the CPU is not officially supported by the manufacturers of portable.

    The CPU upgrade is a tricky thing... the fact is that the CPU must be supported by chipset and BIOS.
    Where a party would not support the new processor, the unit will not light.

    So even if you use a CPU that is supported by the chipset (Intel GM965) there is a risk that the BIOS could not support the new processor...

    The laptop was equipped with processor Intel Pentium Dual-Core processor T2390 (Merom code name) probably the other CPU Intel Pentium Dual-Core family-owned would be compatible, but to be honest, you won't see a performance improvement...

    So in my opinion it is not worth trying to upgrade the processor...

    In my opinion, you need to replace the HARD drive with an SSD... in that case you will get the performance improvement...

  • Satellite A350D - 20K - Question about upgrade second HDD + Temperature

    I have a question about my laptop. I have notticed it is a second location of HARD disk on the bottom.
    Is it possible to use this to increase my storage?
    And if yes, how do I do that? I don't see all the connectors.
    What type of HARD drive to use in case it is possible to use this slot machine?

    My second question is on my laptop to be very hot after a short period of use.
    I installed speedfan to record the temperature. When I start the laptop, it already is between 45 and 50 degrees.
    He stayed there for half an hour and then it starts to get warmer. When I start to use the laptop for anything, it triggers to between 70 and 80 degrees.

    This does not seem normal to me. I tried to clean the vents with compressed air, but it has not made a difference.
    I searched on the internet how to take the laptop part for proparly cleaned TI.
    But I can't so I'm looking that destroy it.

    This could be the cause and more importantly, how can I solve this problem?

    Tom

    The second HARD drive bay contains the HARD drive connectors?
    If Yes, then you can use a SATA 2.5 HARD.
    If there are no connectors, then you will not be able to use the second HARD drive

    CPU and GPU produce a lot of heat. The heat dissipation is always created then there s nothing unusual that the temperature rose to higher level.
    You can change the settings in Win 7 power management. You can set the CPU to lower performance and can increase the activity of fan, which will help lower the temperature.

    Hello

    Upgrading the CPU is a bit tricky on laptops and more often than not desirable and is not possible.
    After the CPU overheating upgrade, it would be possible that don t cooling modules are working properly and the laptop.
    Why? Well well, the CPU new and stronger products, more heat and the temperature would be Monte. The fan table that is stored in the BIOS will not correspond with the new CPU and the cooling fans would not correctly work.
    In addition, upgrading CPU will void your warranty! It's very risky!

    Anyway, looks like you certainly want to upgrade the processor?
    So I would check the chipset installed on your laptop.
    Try to know the details of the chipset and Intel page for compatible processors research!

    Is anyone here has made some experiences in upgrading a SP4600 more than 512 MB of RAM?
    I know that this machine uses PC100 SD - RAM that is available up to 256 MB.
    But someone has tried successfully to put in PC133 memory? And if so, to were the limit?

    And more: what about the upgrade of the rest, for example, the CPU or the whole motherboard?
    Currently, his heart beats with 700 Mhz (Celeron). Would it be as easy as just another graft?
    Or would it be easier to exchange the whole motherboard?
    I've never done anything like this before and I'm not sure how the rest of the system can react on these interventions, in particular because the we-board-video and sound on board...

    I would be delighted if someone could give me some positive feedback on these issues...

    Hello

    You can only use the memory 100 Mhz modules because the FSB is limited to 100 MHz.
    If you use 133 Mhz modules, they will work only at 100 Mhz.

    You can upgrade the satellite Pro 4600 until 512 MB (2x256MB)

    Other devices such as the CPU or GPU are not extensible and the motherboard may be replaced only with the same motherboard
