Question about upgrading memory on the Satellite L20-181

Hello

The recommended minimum is memory for Windwows XP 256 MB and I don't understand how the company could get far notebook sale with integrated graphics with 256 MB shared system memory.

In any case, I want to improve my Toshiba and my intention is to buy 512 MB more memory, such as http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=20049&ft=m&st=3

Will it work properly with 768 MB or I will only buy the same pair: 256 + 256, 512 + 512?

Thank you very much.

Hello

First of all, you are not right. Windows XP also works with the low value of the memory.
But of course it depends on memory so the OS applications will run more rapid or slower.

However, the fact is that you can upgrade the memory on your laptop and it doesn't mater if the modules have the same value of memory or not.
In this case, the laptop came with 256 MB and you can install detox the second module of 512 MB memory.

PS: I recommend installing the 512 MB in the first slot and the 256 MB in the second Bank.

    There are several ways to know which module memory is compatible and supported.
    You can use a diagnosis too like Everest, you check the user's manual or from Toshiba Web site for details or you will contact the service in your country for support modules.

    PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
    PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)

    Now it s your choice. You can also google for offers

  • Question about upgrade memory

    Need advice on upgrading memory. I recently decided to upgrade my current memory 256 MB to 512 MB by adding an another 256 in an empty slot. My question is when I install the memory, I have to do something in the BIOS, or the system will automatically recognize the newly introduced memory.
    Thank you

    Hi Roohbir,

    You have to change anything in your BIOS because the POSITION normally detects the available RAM modules. I would recommend watching the BIOS during the initial boot process to ensure that the new memory is found.

    Soory if you already that, but please make sure that you clear yourself of any static build-up before touching your RAM modules. They are very easy to damage with a discharge of static electricity.

    Good luck with your upgrade.

  • Upgrading memory on the Satellite L500D - 13 c

    Hello!

    I own a laptop Satellite L500D - 13 c and I am considering upgrading memory 2 x 2 GB 2 x 4 GB RAM. According to a specific model list on the accessories compatible with the 4 GB of PC2 DDR2 (800 MHz) memory, item # PA3670U-1M4G, is recommended by Toshiba.

    What I want to know is if this module specific memory (with article # PA3670U-1M4G) is the only compatible module for my laptop or if I could get and buy bars of memory corresponding (and hopefully cheaper) with the same specifications (800 mhz, etc.) without damaging my PC?

    TI would appreciate some advice on this.

    See you soon!

    Hello

    You can also buy another module of memory with the same specifications. Fact is that some modules at low cost and without name can be initially responsible for compatibility issues. It may happen starting cell phone s display will be remains black.

    Therefore I recommend you to use high quality modules and Kingston is one of the best manufacturers of memory modules.

    I understand that you want to save your money but you buy it now and it should work properly.

  • Question about upgrading memory

    Hello

    I have a HP G62 Notebook pc with 3 GB of ram. I want to upgrade my memory to the maximum which I believe is 8 GB.

    Is this possible? Is there a question I might encounter? Also, what would be the part number to buy it.

    Thank you

    SO-DIMM DDR2 - 800 like this:

    http://www.Amazon.com/memory-Pavilion-entertainment-dv7-1448dx-arch/DP/B009H4AZ7I

    http://www.memorystock.com/memory/HewlettPackardPaviliondv71448dx.html

    Max is 2 x 4 GB total = 8 gig. Memory is behind the door of fat on the bottom.

    Such things got stupid expensive, incidentally.

    On the Forum, it is customary to mark an answer "Accept as Solution" if it solves the problem because then it gets indexed and is easier for others to find in the future if they have the same problem.

    Thank you.

  • a question about upgrading memory CF for Cisco 3745

    As we know, the cisco 3745 has 2 locations CF. memory One is internal with a 32 MB of memory by default CF card, another one is external.

    My question is:

    1 is the same as the internal memory card CF CF external memory card?

    2. If I choose the upgrade of the plant CF memory from 32 MB to 128 MB, which slot will be used? Cisco remove the memory of 32MB CF card and install a new 128 MB card in the internal slot or simply add an additional CF memory card through the outside slot?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    the reference for the internal and external numbers are different, which suggests that they are not compatible. So you will have to specify what you want to, for example, MEM3725-32U128CF (which is the internal upgrade) or MEM3725-128CF-EXT (which is the external upgrade).

    In all cases, internal and external cards are not cumulative, in order to get e.g. 128 MB flash, you must either internal, or external card with these 128 MB:

    Q. can partition you the internal Cisco 3700 Series Compact Flash card and the card Compact Flash external to combine or separate them?

    A. No, you cannot join two separate Compact Flash cards or you can their partition.

    Although no rating by Toshiba, I just successfully upgraded my Z830 win 10 and everything seems to work. When win 10 was originally released my first attempt failed (blue screen and his motor boat) so I had to reinstall Win 8.

    Before this second successful attempt, I checked with Toshiba to make sure the motherboard is compatible, downloaded "Driver of Talent" and drivers up-to-date and changed the power settings continuously to ensure no stops during installation...

    All of it worked and now I WIN 10 work on my Z830. At this point I'm not sure works of Bluetooth which stopped when I upgraded from Win 7 to 8 Win.

  • Upgrade memory on the Satellite NB10t-A-102

    Hello

    on NB10t-A-102, I want to change the memory and the increase of 8 GB or 16 GB
    Can make us this change?

    Hello

    According to the specifications of the laptop RAM can be upgraded up to 4 GB, and obviously with 4 GB of RAM inside it is already on the maximum.

    Unfortunately on this forum we do not have much info on this new machine, but in the past we discussed on older models with 1 GB of RAM maximum but in the end, it was possible to update.

    If no one can help with this I recommend you try the upgrade with 8 GB of RAM to check how it works. Number of RAM you should test is PA5104U-1M8G.

    If possible, send feedback.

  • Question about upgrading Ram on a Satellite Pro A200

    I want to buy an internal memory of my A200 Satellite Pro Mod no, PSAE1E, but I can't find my model in the drop-down lists, what memory do I need, I want to switch using two sticks of 1 GB memory, at the present time, I have two sticks of 512 MB installed.

    Hello

    Compatible modules are: * DDR2 667 MHz (PC2-5300) 200 - PIN SODIMM *.

    As far as I know all the A200 series laptops can evolve until * 2 GB *.

    This means that a memory would support module of RAM 1 GB max.

    As the previous user have already said, the Kingston modules are not bad.

    I also use it in my book and so far, the modules are ok.
