• 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...

• Question about upgrading to WXP Pro

  I recently bought a model number Equium PSM57E a friend. I got was the laptop and the charger, HDD played upward, so I replaced it with a blank, but now I am installing WXP Pro on the machine and it keeps hanging on me. I just get a message saying "the installation program starts windows.

  There is no light coming on led to show any type of hard disk activity, I was wondering if the laptop was a dud total until I managed to get windows I'm working on it, but trying to take WXP pro as operating system, is beyond me.

  Just in case you are wondering I have flashed and updated the bios, but was wondering if I need a third-party for the disk controller driver as the hard drive seems dead, when you try to upgrade.
  Thanks in advance for any info you can give me.

  Hi John

  It seems that you have an Equium M50 PSM57E.
  One question: are you sure you bought a good laptop to work?

  In any case, first of all, you must check if the BIOS can recognize that the new installed HDD and check if you have purchased a HARD drive that is supported by M50.

  To my knowledge the BIOS supports a HARD drive size limitation.
  This means that not all HARD drive sizes are supported, and may not be used!
  But after some discussion here in the forum the Equium M50 should be able to manage a 100 GB HARD drive.

  Finally and above all remember that you use WinXP Pro, which already supports the SP2. This is necessary and important.

  Good luck

• Equium A100 - 02L: Question about upgrade memory to 4 GB

  Hello.

  The time has come to upgrade my laptop, but I don't know how to get the full 4 GB of RAM in it.

  Toshibas page for this computer says I have 4 GB, but also that its two memory locations only consist with maximum 1024 MB card. Is the only feasible supplement by vista ready boost or something?

  The vehicle currently has two 512 MB 667 mhz pc5300' cards inside.

  Please help me... I am looking to order these items very soon and I don't want to buy something that does not work.

  Thanks in advance.

  I found the info you can increase the RAM to 4 GB. You have to buy 2 X 2 GB RAM modules.
  So now the question is what OS you use, because 32-bit Vista recognize 3 GB only.

  1 update CPU is not supported as you can read here:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  2 maximum capacity of RAM for your Tecra M5 should be 4 GB according to the specifications. This means that you can install the 2 GB of memory on each RAM slot.
  The specifications are DDR2-667 you need.

  3 and what's exactly happened after update BIOS? You can start your laptop?
  I put t think that BIOS update is required for Windows 7. In your case I Don t do this update, Windows 7 will also work with the old version.

  The question is...

  I want to upgrade my portable computer system memory 3 GB DDR2 (800 MHz) RAM to 4 GB of RAM DDR3 (1066 MHz), which is compatible or not?

  Respect,
  enteoana

  Hello

  In my opinion, you should follow specification not Intel and Toshiba. S Toshiba of info is based on own tests and facts.
  So, depending on the specifications of Toshiba for the GM45 Chipset it is clearly written:

  Min(on Board) wheel capacity - DDR2 800 MHz 0 MB / 8 GB max
  Type of extension of memory - DDR2 800 MHz 1 GB/2 GB/4 GB
  Type of module - SO-DIMM

  So if Toshiba write about 800 MHz modules, you must use the modules to them and not faster.
  You may be able to use faster too, but they do not work with the maximum speed, but not going down to 800 MHz.

  If you want to use max RAM amount use recommended and tested 2 x 2 Go DDR2-800 (PA3669U-1M2G).
  Indicated as compatible RAM, 4 GB DDR2-800 (PA3670U-1M4G).

• Satellite T2130CS - Question on upgrade components

  I have a Satellite T2130CS, which is in good shape and I want to upgrade to the following:

  Increase the RAM to 32meg - done

  Hello!

  I think the 160 GB is too large for this old book and as far as I know the laptop supports 40GB maximum.
  However, to make a BIOS update. Not bad what s.

  Windows 98 Second edition has a default limitation of 137 GB for disk ATA interface. Theoretically, you could then partition your startup to 137 GB drive, but a limitation of the Microsoft Scandisk defragmentation programs and reduced the practical dimension to 127 GB.

  Hope that answers your question.

• 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.

• Satellite A100-334: Question about upgrading from XP to Vista

  I need help to upgrade my A100-334 to vista!
  I use the disks provided by toshiba. It is said that the new Bios is already installed (vers.5.60).

  After running the second drive it says I need to uninstall Driver driver/BD DVD-RAM and Toshiba configfree.

  Then he said that the following issues will not prevent the upgrade of the execution but that some applications or elements may not work properly. The list is long.

  Here are some examples:
  Diagnostic tool for TOSHIBA, Sun Java Scheduler, TOSHIBA controls, Bluetooth TOSHIBA Power saver settings and so on.

  It is recommended to uninstall all of these objects?
  What can I do?

  I appreciate any help thanks - Detlef

  Hi Detlef

  Well, what to say if I understand your question you didn t make a new, clean install Vista, but you tried to upgrade the full XP to Vista.

  I don't wonder that this doesn't update good conduct and that you get notifications on the tools and driver compatibility issues.

  The fact is that many drivers, tools and utilities that are designed for the operating system XP don t run on the Vista operating system. That is why it s necessary and desirable to remove any programs that are not compatible with Vista!

  In my opinion, you must perform a clean installation of Vista, and then you can download and install all the drivers Toshiba Vista required and utilities.

  Best regards and greetings to Germany ;)

• Satellite A200-1CR: Question about upgrade HARD drive

  Hi all...
  I would like to ask something...

  I have toshiba Satellite A200-1cr with 120 GB HARD drive...

  I would like to change my HARD drive. I found a disk hard 2.5 "with 250 GB.

  My questions are the following:

  (1) my knowledge of the workstations are very very good. Is it easy to change myself?
  I guess it is, but I want to be sure... I guess that is on IDE, right? No SATA at all?

  (2) if I changed it I lose my warranty?

  (3) can I give my laptop Toshiba in Greece official store and let them make the change?
  May I take in an informal shop, too?

  (4) can be put on the laptop 2 x 250 GB such US new computers laptops from toshiba?
  Is there enough space in the laptop for such a change?

  Thank you in advance...

  Hey Buddy

  It is good that ask you the question.

  (1) the Satellite A200-1CR supports SATA and no IDE interface and that's why you need a SATA HDD. It of really not difficult to replace the HARD drive and as far as I know, you should find a few details in the user manual. There is a useful statement and photos that explain the entire procedure.

  (2) hm AFAIK the drive replacement HARD will not void the warranty, and has no effect on the State of security.

  (3) you can also contact the maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country for a HARD drive replacement, but in my opinion that is not really necessary because the replacement is not very sensitive. As I said above, check the user manual.

  (4) I don t think that your laptop will support 2 x 250 GB HARD drive.
  Of course, there are a few other series laptops which are abele to support two hard drives but I n t think that your laptop A200 support.

  Just a small comment on the new HARD drive:
  The fact is that some more HARD drive are not supported by the BIOS. I mean an upgrade to 120 GB to 250 GB drive HARD is really a leap one possibly your BIOS would not recognize the HARD drive correctly.
  So I recommend to test the HDD first before buying.

  Good bye

• Satellite A50 543: Questions about upgrading the HARD drive

  I'm looking to upgrade the internal hard disk on my A50 543 to 100 GB at 7200 RPM. The original drive is a Fujitsu 60GM 4200. I have found no information on the Internet on other readers line CMS that have been tested and found compatible with the A50. I need at least 5400 RPM or 7200 RPM to edit video.

  Suppliers meet usually only with so many laptops on the market, they cannot test each hard drive with any laptop, but can tell if it is compatible with the specifications of the computer and the hard disk specifications and are so confident that their information is accurate that they offer a money back guarantee (excluding shipping costs)

  My question is
  (1) how can I be sure that the drive will work (considering the high international shipping costs) to 100%?

  (2) none of the contributors to this forum may recommend a hard drive internal 5400 RPM or more it has installed on the same model specification?

  Thank you. You are my last hope

  Best regards
  Vince

  Hello

  If you want to be 100% sure that works on your HARD drive, so I think the best way is to contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner. Here, you can order all the devices and parts compatible and supported.
  I also found these Toshiba hard disks that must be compatible:
  HDD2187B 20 GB 4 200
  HDD2190B 40 GB 4 200
  HDD2193 40 GB 5 400
  HDD2189B 60 GB 4 200
  HDD2194 60 GB 5 400
  HDD2188B 80 GB 4 200
  80 GB 5 400 HDD2191

  In this case, you can use a disk HARD of GB 5 400 80 but I put t found no information about 100 GB of HARD drive.

• The question processor upgrade

  OK so I have a Presario SR1920NX I upgraded to 2 GB of ram and put to update to windows 7 but here's the question... I currently have 2.2 GHx processor and I feel its not quite worth more so I decided to upgrade, but basically, each processor I looked for my pc requires an update of the Bios ok no biggie execpt theres no bios update for my pc running windows 7 so I would be nice to upgrade without bios or would I need to go back to xp update of the BIOS, and then reinstall windows 7?

  Here are the specifications of your desktop Compaq Presario SR1920NX. Previously, I had a Compaq SR1910NX and always use an HP a1632x, two use the same motherboard as your SR1920NX. My a1632x is a "Athlon 64 X 2 3800 + 2.0 GHz" which resembles your "Athlon 64 3500 + 2.2 GHz" except that he has two hearts. I upgraded to 4 GB of memory RAM and installed Windows 7 64-bit. The system works without a problem and partitions in the middle of the year of 5 years with a HP 512 MB HD6450 graphic card.

  Installation of 4 GB and a graphics card will help your system to feel faster and upgrade to a dual core Athlon 64 X 2 4800 + will help certainly... but the CPU is going to be hard to find and quite expensive, even on e - bay.

  BIOS version 3.11 is the last update of the BIOS and does not add processors higher than socket 939 X 2 4800 +. You will need to go back to XP to install the BIOS update, because it will not install on any other OS.

• Questions about upgrading a Compaq Presario CQ5205Y desktop computer system

  Good evening

  I'm about to embark on my first serious upgrade of my computer, and I thought it would be a good idea to arrive before I get too far down the rabbit hole (and knocked out my Internet access).  What motivates the need to upgrade, it's that the system tends to lag when I programs using a lot of memory running and I think I can give him a decent boost on reasonably low budget.

  I have a desktop PC Compaq Presario CQ5205Y Win7-64 bit without modification until running.  I'm lookin to upgrade the CPU and the RAM of the machine.  For ease of reference, here is the page describing the system:

  http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?objectID=c01859812&lang=en&cc=us&Conte...

  For the CPU, I found a good price on an AMD Phenom X 4 9750 2.4 GHz Quad-Core CPU (HD9750WCJ4BGH).  What I read, it meets the necessary criteria (socket AM2 + 95W, etc.).  I still need to determine if it needs a fan or non - language marketing indicates that it is not), but assuming that it works, here are my questions for this update:

  1 should I update the BIOS on the card, or change one of its parameters to recognize the new chip?

  2. with regard to the installation, I think that it's pretty simple - unlock/remove the Semprom LE-1300 that is there now, carefully align the new processor Phenom X 4 (Golden to golden triangle triangle) and tighten in place. Then, if necessary, install the fan/radiator.  Is this correct, or am I missing something important and potentially catastrophic?

  For the RAM, I have not bought, but I think I need barrettes 2x2gb DDR2 memory unbuffered, non - ECC memory.  I'm showing my ignorance here, but I imagine that rain is better in this case and is much better than the PC2-5300 memory PC2-6400.  If Yes, then maybe something like (or more affordable if I can find it):

  http://www.TigerDirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6252562&CSID=_61

  Once again, a couple of very similar questions:

  1. do I need to change BIOS settings after I installed memory or if the automatic detection system?

  2. I swapped memory on other computers before so I guess that this motherboard is always the same - unclip/dethrone the existing memory, slide into the new and snap it in place.  Does this sound right?

  In my view, which covers everything I know, but if anyone has any other advice or warning indication, they would certainly be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance for help a beginner brave new waters.

  Processor:

  (1) no updated BIOS available for this model

  (2) more or less correct... you will need a HSF (heatsink & fan) for the new processor and a thermal paste. After the installation of the CPU, you apply the thermal is dedicated to the then install the HSF. The stock will be Sempron HSF to adapt and work but can not dissipate the extra heat

  (3) it is one of these models that will accept AM3 Athlon II and Phenom II CPU (see CPU upgrade in specs), but if it is supported depends on the revision of the motherboard and the BIOS version. Your choice of Phenom 9750 is a sure way to go

  Memory:

  (1) once again, no BIOS update available for this model

  (2) sounds right

  (3) you can look at Newegg.com best prices
