Question on the extension memory on the Satellite A80 117

I have a question about the compatibility of memory.
(The A8-117 is a Centrino 1.6 GHz (Pentuin M 730 processor) with Frontal 533 MHz bus and 2 MB of level 2, Intel® 915GM Express chipset)

At the moment I have 1 chip of 512 MB (333 MHz, 2.5 CL) installed. I intend to switch to 1.5 or 2 GB. So what bothers me is: can I install a DDR2 533 MHz modules on this laptop (in this case the old 333 MHz one out)?
Official website of Toshiba only 333 MHz DDR are provided, so that the 915GM express chipset allowes it.

If it is not possible to 533, I guess I'll just buy 1 extra GB of 333 MHz DDR.

Thanks in advance!

Hello

At first, I want to say, which is always recommended to use RAM compatible and tested modules. On this way, you will be sure that it will work well and without any problems.

According to the specifications of the laptop you can upgrade RAM to 2 GB max and compatible modules are: PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 2M 51) and 1024Mo PC2700 (PA3313U-2M1G).

You can use faster RAM modules, but for me it is really not necessary. The specification of the laptop is the 333 MHz bus speed and faster modules will be not useful for laptop runs faster. It is best to buy 2 x PA3313U-2M1G and you will have no problem and portable will runs much more quickly than before.

    Hello

    Here, a few questions about the number:

    (1) usually, you should get the Vista Toshiba Recovery DVD. If you didn t receive this DVD then you can order it here https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx or you could install the disc of Microsoft Vista.

    (2) of course, you can do this. I think that Win XP drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba driver page.

    (3) Yes, you can upgrade the RAM. For more information, see your manual or search on this forum for similar topics

    (4) maybe it s associated with the graphics driver. Check if you can update. I would recommend additional check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS

  • Questions on the Satellite Pro L650-167

    Hello

    I have a few questions on the Toshiba Satellite Pro L650-167 I'm about to buy. It is the model with an i5 430 m, 4 GB drr3 and ati 5650.

    (1) will be the laptop computer motherboard supports upgrading to a processor i7m as the 620 m for example? I find these on ebay for good prices. Also can you truly open mobile phones L series to replace the processor? You can for example of dell. I know that my warranty will be cancelled. Finally all the i series cpu is all 35w so do not supply problems?

    (2) can easily exchange you the hard disk of the L series, or is it not available?

    Thank you very much!

    Here is my review for you:

    1
    Update CPU is not supported and I don t think that everyone here will be able to provide some specific information on this subject. Any laptop can be opened and removed so it shouldn't be a problem, but if it's reasonable the decision is another matter. If you need laptop with more power than pay a little more money and buy cell phone more powerful, but don t change anything and have it with full warranty time.

    Generally the design on most Toshiba laptops is the same and access the HARD disk is not complicated. All you have to do is to remove the HARD drive cover placed at the bottom. Then you can remove the original HARD drive and possibly improve with a new.

  • Re: A few questions with the Satellite A350-12J

    My father-in-law's cell phone is the Satellite 350 and I think there 12j after his name.

    We re-installed Vista 32 bit the other day and he said that some things do not work as they should.

    First of all, if he presses the FN key, and say the s, the brightness, it works but he used to have a small dock type thing will appear at the top of the screen with icons of FN button. The other don t FN keys work well as the permutation of switch monitor.

    Second keys soft touch media don t work as turning off the lights behind them or bring up media player.

    We have evidence and tried to install the value pack but he said during the installation that he was withdrawing the package so it must have already been installed. After having re-installed, there is no difference. I can't find any program or whatever it is in the Panel for her.
    Also, I tried the same thing to the hardware configuration. Once again, it seems telling herself it was there and uninstall. Yet once I re-installed but t still can't find anything for him anywhere for me to change any settings or anything like that.

    I don't have the laptop with me good that now it is at home, but I think I got it.

    All ideas welcome.

    Each Toshiba laptop comes with the pre-installed operating system and the old A350 will be delivered with Vista, so I would like to know if it is possible for you to use this original picture of the recovery.
    Have your father in law created recovery DVD such as recommended by Toshiba?

    I guess you are trying to install the version of Vista clean, right?

  • Windows 8.1 update questions about the Satellite P870 - PSPLFA

    Hello

    For the better or worse over the weekend, I downloaded windows 8.1 on a toshiba laptop (model PSPLFA p870) that was running windows 8. Graphics card is NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 630 M 2 GB with Optimus + Intel® HD Graphics 4000

    http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/p870/psplfa-019001/specifications

    couple of questions:

    (a) I'm having some trouble to make windows 8.1 works fine on this laptop and cannot get/find new drivers on the toshiba site to properly adjust the video card.

    Any ideas how or where I can download video drivers that are suitable for this laptop?
    Too eager not to uninstall and go back to windows 8, now that I went that day...

    I have a call yesterday with microsoft yesterday which seems to go nowhere to fix one or two other things after this upgrade.

    (b) on the windows 8.1 machine my internet connection when running IE11
    seems now a little flaky and suspect that it is a matter of 11/windows 8.1 internet explore (other laptops on my wireless network running windows 7 and XP work fine and do not abandon their studies and can access all the info I can't get on the machine win 8.1) which seems to be a bit a common issues by looking at some other forums and

    (c) I can't download or open files from google docs (screen freezes right most of the way through the download) on the 8.1 update windows machine.

    Any help appreciated,
    Ken

    Hello

  • See questions about the Satellite A205-S5859

    I would like to know the following:

    1. is there a problem with the speakers of this first use. The volume deteriorates. You will need to set to 100.

    2. can I put the car in a dedicated video video?

    3. What is the maximum memory for this model? Where is the memory chip?

    One of my friends has a laptop A200. It s not A205 but very similar. The A205 is designed for the American market and the A200 to the European market.

    So finally, I can give you some suggestions on the issue:

    (1) any volume questions are not known for me everything works ok.

    (2) No, upgrading the graphics card is definitely not possible

    (3) I guess you'll find this info in the user manual. Did you check that?
    But I think that there is a possibility for an upgrade to 4 GB of RAM. But I do not recommend upgrading the RAM to 4 GB due to the limitation of the 32-bit operating system. All the 32-bit OS s can manage 3.2 GB RAM max.
    Finally, the position of the slots memory; I think that it s at the bottom of the unit.

    When I use airphone and close and open the screen I can hear a sound and the volume is up and down.

    A few days ago, I opened the laptop and check all components inside, and then when I close and restart the network LAN adapter and the USB port is displayed, and now that they disappear.

    Please if someone could help me

    > Yesterday I open the laptop and check all components inside
    You disassemble the laptop?
    O man this affects and the guarantee of s notebook :(

    However, I would also recommend to load the image of Toshiba and to perform the recovery.
    I hope that this would solve the annoying problems.

    I can't imagine that this could be a hardware problem, but as you probably know: everything is possible.

    However, I keep fingers crossed that your questions would not appear after you set the notebook to factory condition.

    Read this FAQ from Toshiba document. It provides all the answers and a detailed instruction.

    Windows 8 uses the same drivers as Pro

  • A few questions about the Satellite A200 - 204 (PSAE6E)

    I recently bought a Toshiba model Satellite A200 - 204 (PSAE6E) bought the 05/12/2008, the garage.
    NATIONAL ALVAREZ (Al Khoudh, Oman),

    Sealed opening box, I realized that product had two questions, I immediately reported it to the dealer.
    (1) red spot on the LCD (Pixel damage)
    (2) LCD junk shows up after every 10-15 minutes of use.

    For the Point 1.*
    The Service Center authorized returned the noteback quote myself
    "The question of a white spot on the LCD is not the responsibility of the Department."

    For the point 2.
    The dealer has made installation of o/s for 2-3 hours of surveillance.
    Now ask to take me to authorized service center and keep for 2-3 days of surveillance.
    only then can the material be confirmed (as appropriate).

    However, I would like an honest of any opinion if this can be termed as "DEAD ON ARRIVAL" & can I request a replacement in these circumstances!
    Kind regards

    Published by: ADMIN

    Hey Buddy

    As far as I know dead on arrival questions are always issues between business partners.
    So if something is wrong with your laptop, you could request a laptop replacement. You should ask your dealer to laptop.

    Now, I want to say something about your question;

    I found helpful article from Toshiba on the dead pixel problems:
    [What is the maximum number allowed and the type of fault of pixel your monitor LCD Toshiba can expose by 1 million pixels? | http://support.Toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB5400ZD0002R01.htm]

    Usually it is not big thing to do because there is a kind of tolerance of dead pixels.
    Only if the number of dead pixel is larger, then the number described in the document above the ASP will replace the screen.
    The best advice is to go back to the dealer and replace the notebook.

    On this second volume of Toshiba, you can find more information about the tolerance of dead pixel:

  • A few questions on the Satellite A200-1BJ

    Dear Sir.

    A couple of days, I bought laptop Toshiba Satellite A200-1BJ of Jarir Book Store, Al-Khobar, Saudi Arabia.
    The system configuration is provided by the company.
    Operating system: Windows Vista editions Home Premium
    300 hard drive space is divided into two partitions:
    C - Vista with Go 138
    D data disk seen 139 GK

    When buying the laptop, I had only the recovery CD and there is no Drivers CD. Three years agao, at the time of buying laptop toshiba, I got the drivers CD as well with the recovery CD. Why the driver CD does not come in the current edition of the laptop.
    I need to install a software application which requires about 200 GB of space. In this regard, I have the following questions for which I want explanation from you to guide me to take the appropriate action.

    (a) I want to create a new 50 GB partition using the free space on the C drive. How can I do this? If possible, so I can install my application software by merging 50 GB with the D drive space.

    (b) can I change the configuration of HARD disk space by installing the new copy of windows vista operating system. During the installation of the operating system, it will ask for the disk partition in this case, I'll format the C drive current and have a new partition of C (78 GB) and D (190 GB). Is this possible.

    (c) If b is possible, so how do I install all drivers in the system currently installed with, since Toshiba Co. don't did not provide me with the driver CD. How

    Can I get the drivers CD. Do I have to load all the drivers of webside and create a DVD of the same thing?
    Waiting for your response, which will allow me to take the appropriate decision.

    Kind regards.

    > Three years ago, at the time of buying laptop Toshiba, I got the drivers CD as well with the recovery CD. Why the driver CD does not come in the current edition of the laptop.

    I put t know exactly why Toshiba has decided to only provide the recovery CD and not the driver CD with the laptop, but all the drivers that are preinstalled on the laptop are on the Toshiba driver page. Given that all computer users have access to the internet, it should t be a problem with the driver download!
    Also the restore CD contains the entire image of Toshiba with all the pre-installed driver, tools and utilities.

    > I want to create a new 50 GB partition using the free space on the C drive. How can I do this?
    You can do it in Vista disk management.
    You can reduce the C partition and on free space, you can activate a partition of second or third.

    > Can I change the configuration of HARD disk space by installing the new copy of the windows vista operating system?
    To my knowledge, this is not possible using the Toshiba Vista recovery CD.
    But check the proposal above!

    > If b is possible, so how do I install all drivers in the system currently installed with, as Toshiba not did not provide me with the driver CD.
    B is not possible, but as already mentioned, the drivers are on the Toshiba page

    > Can I get the drivers CD. Do I have to load all the drivers from the website and create a DVD of the same thing?
    This CD can be obtained, because it does not exist. Download driver page.
