• Satellite A100-386 - HDD upgrade question

  Hello everyone and happy new year.

  First of all, sorry for my bad English.

  I bought a Satellite A100-386 a few years and I'm really happy, but my hard drive has failed.
  So, I wanted to know if I could put a 2.5 "SATA II disk, like this.

  http://www.materiel.NET/Disque-Dur/Hitachi-Travelstar-5k500-b-s-ATA-II-250-go-8-mo-48900.html

  because when I see the characteristics of the satellite, they mention a hard drive with only S - ATA.
  Y at - it compatibility?

  Thank you answer :)

  Bye bye

  Hello

  Yes, I think that this should be possible.
  The A100 supports hard drives SATA controller, and theoretically, you can use any HARD SATA 2.5 drive.

• Satellite L505-138 - CPU upgrade question

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L505-138

  Parts no: psls9e-00u00wg3
  Series: No.: 1a511094k

  The processor I have now is the i3 330

  I want to spend to i7
  Is this possible and can you link me where to buy the right one which suitable to my laptop

  > Is it possible?
  Perhaps, in the case of the new processor would be supported by the BIOS and chipset, you ve got a good chance to upgrade the processor.
  But Toshiba but also other laptop manufacturers don t support these updates and so everything you do is at your own risk!

  First I would recommend you to get information about your chipset. Intel ARK page you might check what processors would be supported by the chipset.
  Fact is that this series of mobile were equipped with the Intel Dual Core CPU Intel Arrandale CPU family. In case you really want to try a new processor, I suggest you to choose one of this family.

  But beware: even if chipset would support the new processor, the BIOS can be one of the parties causing disorders. Unfortunately I haven't found any information which processors can be taken in charge by the BIOS

• Satellite L670-134 - CPU upgrade question

  Hello

  I would like to upgrade my old laptop for 5 years, due to the memory... I have now changed and a hard drive SSD added (500 GB) and a new battery but I want more: processor... I read on the Internet that it is but we need to its manufacturer which processors are asking for the appropriate device and I want to do with it what better processor I could use in my good old laptop purely build the perfect works with all components.

  Of more the graphics chip (if possible), but...

  Checking the bios - mods.com for upgrade of processor in the cpu support section updates forum

  and place a request here they will ask you to fill out some information with the CPU - Z program then they can determine what the processor upgrade is best for your laptop.

• Satellite L40 - 15G - CPU upgrade question

  Hello!

  I want to change the processor in my laptop with an intel t2310 (1.46 Ghz/1 MB cache) and I tried with a t7200 intel but is not worked.
  Can someone tell me what processors installed in the laptop.

  Thank you
  Hugo

  Hello

  You can only use the CPU that is supported by the chipset and BIOS.
  As far as I know the computer Satellite L40/EQUIUM L40/Satellite Pro L40/Satellite L45 is equipped with a processor Intel Pentium Duo or Intel Celeron M Processor.

  These processors were built in:

  Pentium processor (533 MHz) Duo clocked at 1.6 GHz (T2060) 1.73 GHz (T2080) / 1.86 GHz (T2090) / 1.86 GHz (T2130)

  and

  Celeron processor (533 MHz) 1.73GHz GHz 1.86 M (430)

  I think you can use these processors.

• Satellite L30-134 CPU upgrade question - running at 800 Mhz & 1300 Mhz

  Hi guys,.

  I recently updated my 1.4 for the Core Duo T5500 processor to give it more omff.
  I've updated the aswell of RAM with a 1 GB. It's worked well. Its now to 1.5 GB of RAM.

  The laptop goes off well and works well, the processor only runs at 800 mhz on each core occasionally he jumps up to 1300 mhz.
  I know what I downloaded CPUZ. I also tried to use old clockgen and the new version and it does not work.
  I also tried to use the NHC and no luck.

  I can't the voltage to run right or shift gears using clockgen. Also when I go into the Bios I can not change anything here either.
  I'm new to computer talk so the answers will have to be dumbed down for me in laymens terms.

  I'm shaw I read a post on the net saying they have this processor running at L30 - 134 here and it works great but can't seem to find him.
  I'm I shoot me in the foot, or can I get it to work?

  Hey Buddy

  I think that there is nothing wrong with your laptop or with the central unit.
  Is the processor Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile T5500 supports Enhanced Intel Speedstep _ technology and this is the reason why the speed of the CPU is not constantly running at 1.66 GHz.

  Please check this document on Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology Intel
  http://www.Intel.com/CD/channel/reseller/ASMO-na/Eng/203838.htm

  _It said: _ + Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology allows the system to dynamically adjust the frequency of voltage and core processor, which can translate into a reduction in average energy consumption and decreases the average heat production.

  I think this should clarify everything!

• I would like to upgrade the RAM of the Satellite A100-803

  Hello

  I want to upgrade the RAM of my Satellite A100-803, which uses actually PC2-533, at 4 GB.

  Can I upgrade to PC2 - 667?
  Do I need Dual-Channel?
  One advises on what brand or the best model to use?

  If I not mistaken and for what I could see around the internet, I should be able to switch to 4 GB PC2-667 and Dual-Channel should not be necessary. But an expert of confirmation would be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance,

  Best regards.

  Javier.

  Hello

  Laptop computer supports Mobile Intel® 945GM Express Chipset.
  These results support single / dual channel DDR2 SDRAM
  Maximum memory supported: up to 4 GB to 400, 533 and 667 MHz

• Satellite A100-803 - Vista recovery problem

  Hello

  I upgraded the RAM and HDD on a Satellite A100-803 and when I restore Windows Vista from the recovery disk process is going very well, but after restarting windows says that "Windows Setup could not set up Windows on this s material.

  I think that the problem is listed here.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2466753/en-us.

  But the problem is that I can't change the RAID setting in the BIOS, and during the installation of recovery, I'm not able to add the additional drivers needed.
  The new drive is a WD 500 GB driver (WD5000BPVT)

  How can I solve this problem?
  Thanks in advance
  Pau

  Hello

  First I put t think its BIOS problem.
  The laptop doesn't support RAID.

  I think the problem is the size of your new HARD drive. Upgrade of the disk HARD 500 GB and its larger than the original HARD drive equipped in A100.

  The point is that a recovery disk automatically creates the partitions on the HARD disk, but due to the size of the disk HARD the size of the partitions would be different also.
  I think that you won't have the same problems to install Vista or Win 7 using the Microsoft disk

• Satellite A100-803 - no sound

  But now the sound does not work with windows 7 64 bit, then I install linux ubuntu, but the sound does not work.
  Could you help me?

  Thank you very much

  Did you check if the sound would work using the wired headset?
  If this isn't it.

  If speakers would work, please go to the

• Satellite Pro L20-PSL25E - CPU upgrade question

  Hello

  I upgraded the ram last year and im running high-performance for my model, 2.0 GB.

  This really helped for awhile, but after a few heavy programs have been installed this year (only one software, one game) ive noticed it running slow as before, its worth noting that my computer has adopted all the necessary specifications for both outside the game where im working on 1.7 ghz and it needs the least 2.0 ghz processor , and I'm short on speed slowest peformance of the game itself.

  The vehicle has currently a centrino pentium, keeping in mind a new portable computer is not in my budget, is it worth getting a new processor and which would be best?

  Thanks again, Rebecca.

  Hello

  My personal opinion is that Satellite L20 is not designed for heavy operations and is certainly not game machine. If you compare the price of Satellite and Satellite L laptops you'll understand why. I'm sure that this laptop is designed for Internet, office and simple every day activities.

  Upgrading RAM is very good and I'm sure it helps a lot but CPU upgrade is not the solution. Update CPU is not supported. You must also understand that each hardware platform is designed for optimal physical activity. Processor, graphics, cooling system and other hardware components must work without overheating and harmonic. Stronger CPU means more heat.

  In my opinion you should optimize operating system preinstalled software hoping you use will work better and more stable.

• Satellite A50: Engraver of DVD & CPU upgrade questions

  Hi how far can upgrade my A 50 1.5 ghz centrino and Motherboard can't cos 1.5 dual-core is really not enough for me any more. I know there are a lot of problem on cpu upgrade but I need just to answer far?

  I also change my DVD burner to +/-dvd burner, and how I can do it. I also heard that toshiba recalls batery and I saw my model of laptop also on this list.

  Hello

  Unfortunately, but I don t think that the motherboard will support the new Dual Core CPU.
  It is a technology simply different and you should also know that the CPU upgrade on laptops is not very easy as on the desktop PC.
  AFAIK the A50 was delivered with different processors and must be compatible with the bus of 400 Mhz Intel Pentium M 1.5/1.6/1.7Ghz and bus of 400 Mhz Intel Celeron M 1.2/1.3/1.4Ghz.

  Anyway, as far as I know Toshiba doesn't support updates and you will not find any official information about updates and upgrade problems.
  I think that the biggest problem could be the highest temperature, BIOS and chipset compatibility. Furthermore it possible to some Toshiba tools such as energy saving does not work and the product overheats.

  If you want to upgrade or replace the CD/DVD drive, so I recommend that you first contact the service partner Toshiba for devices compatible and taken in charge.
  This is important because not all readers are supported by the BIOS.
  Portable players are set to master/slave or C - salt that is why it is very important that you will buy a drive to right. Drive with bad settings is not recognized by the BIOS, and there is no chance to change the master/slave or c - salt settings!

  Now something of the battery:
  Well, I read on the page Toshiba that only some laptops which were manufactured between March and May 2006 are affected.
  I recommend to check this site Web from Toshiba of the FAQ for more details:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/generic_content.jsp?service=EU&ID=FAQ_BATTERY_EN

  I hope I could help

• Satellite A100-011 - RAM upgrade

  Hello

  I have laptop Satellite A100-011. And I want to improve his memory. It has 1 GB of ram DDR2 533 hz. My questions are the following;
  1. how many ram slots have?
  2-can we add 2 GB of ram DDR2 533 hz more, if so, will total 3GB? Or shoud I replace 2 GB 1 GB?
  3 - ? It s possible to use DDR3 Rams or different frequency as 800 Hz?
  4 - What brand should I use to upgrade? Kingston etc?
  5 - ? f I upgrade the memory of my laptop, can I install windows7 32 bit (I have windows vista at the moment)

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  I'll try to give you some answers:

  # According to specification of laptop there two RAM slots
  # Your laptop can handle with 4 GB max, then you can do whatever you want and it depends on how much RAM you want to have inside. You can buy a module of RAM of 2 GB and 3 GB of RAM. That should be enough to work with Vista or Win7 even. Of course, you can upgrade to maximum and buy 2 X 2 GB.
  # It has no meaning at all. If the speed of the FSB of your motherboard is 53 MHz why use 800 MHZ modules. Your laptop will not be faster because of Rams with more MHz.
  # Yes, Kingston product high quality and using Kingston modules, you should not have compatibility problems.
  # I put t see any reason why you shouldn't be able to install Win7, but before this visit Toshiba support page and check if your phone model is supported for Win7.

• Satellite A100-768: processor upgrade?

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite a100-768
  is it possible to upgrade the processor?
  I would buy a cpu merom and install this one...
  or is the processor soldered to the motherboard?

  Kind regards
  brechtvm

  Hello

  The answer is 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.

  By the way: A100 is one of the latest devices and I don t understand why you want to swap the CPU. Why you didn t buy best camera has better CPU performance?

• Satellite A100 stops after upgrade memory

  Consider me the thickie Pack 1... Not sure wot im talkin end but n e way...
  Have a Satellite A100 570 (PSAA2E)...

  Tried several websites online lookin for memory upgrade. Did not have the witt to use the toshiba site... Eventually get to the point...
  Ran the Diagnostics on laptop and sent module one needed.or so I thought... wrong 1 or 1 s I bought 2 x 1 G modules in order to 'double '...

  Got my money because they were not compatible with my system... something to do with the problems of density...
  Tried company called OFFTEK... they seemed to know what they were talkin' about... I'm Offtek. at present one...

  200-pin 1.8V SoDimm PC2 - 4200 DDR2... but Toshiba recommended below...

  1 GB memory DDR2 PC2-4300 (533 MHz)
  Part number: PA3411U-2M1G
  1024 MB (1 GB) memory PC2 - 4300 DDR2 (533 MHz)

  Theres an obvious difference... 4200 and 4300. But I'm not sure if there is a significant difference... or what it means
  Update the bios to the version latest and basically put all that toshiba had to offer for this model...

  EVEREST ran and it recognizes the module 1 G but when I pull out the original 512 MB module, the laptop starts for about 3 seconds then stops...
  This repeats about 5 times then fill stop...

  I don't like open the back cover too often but it's the 3rd module...
  Don't know what is supposed to happen if the module works... IE launch message... dunno if windows recognizes module 1 G...
  Would be - this bet safer to send Offtek module and stick with option of toshiba...

  Thanks in advance...

  Hey Buddy

  Have a look here:
  Memory for Toshiba Satellite A100-570
  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=23658&ft=m&St=3

  You can use the DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM bars!

  The pc2-4300 Rams are the same as PC2-4200. It s just a marketing gag PC2-4300 are PC2-4200 modules that can be overclocked by some versions of BIOS PC desktop

  However, you must take the PC2-4200.
