Satellite 1805-S274 - RAM & MP4 movie playing question

Hi people,

I use an older Toshiba laptop, model indicated above with Win XP SP3 and 512 MB RAM. When I bought years ago (with Win 2 K installed), I could have sworn that he could make movies MP4.

Today, even with all the updated drivers to the latest available (see below), MP4s and streaming video are very bad, because there's a hesitation every 2 to 4 seconds.

Anyway to solve this problem so that I can watch steaming video?

Second question. As I understand it, the max for this laptop RAM is 512 MB of SDRAM.
What will happen if I traded one of the 256 as Meg sticks with a Meg SDRAM 512 stick?

Any info is appreciated.

TIA,

Bob

Added by Edit - what about the drivers, I check those out after posting above. Tried updating the Trident Cyber ALADDin P4 v6.4616221CD_SE_NP (update: 20/05/03), and now windows update finds a new player presumed, downloaded and installed. Restarted, check again the driver, and he still has the date of 30/05/03. Then an updated driver looking in c: Windows\System32. Driver updated again. Yet, he always has a date 30/05/03. Am a little confused by the system would be updated to a driver and then date the old driver.

Does anyone have clues what happens?

Hello

In regards to the update of the driver card graphic;
Maybe you tried to update a driver version, which was already preinstalled on your system.
Please note that the Date updated on the Toshiba page show you when the pilot was transferred to the page and not the version of the driver.

With regard to the question of the RAM;
If the laptop runs max 512 MB of RAM and if 2 banks of ram are available, then you can use max 256 MB in a bank a 512MB might not be compatible and the laptop will not turn on properly.

With regard to the issue of movie MP4;
Maybe you should install some codec packs. I installed the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack. It contains all the necessary codecs in one package.

Also try to play movies using different actors; for example the VLC Player.
It is a small, free, player which is compatible with most files and standards!

Good bye

  • Satellite 1805-S274 sometimes stop when running DVD

    Satellite 1805-S274.
    Whenever the DVD is in use, it tends to stop the machine. Not always, but most of the time. If I leave an and do not use the machine, it stays on. Once I have start bsuign the DVD player it shuts down after using a little. I assumed longer heating but its pretty clean inside.

    Also, I wanted to remove the disc to test without him but I can't understand how to remove this non replaceable disc.

    Any documentation out there?

    Hello

    Unfortunately there is no public document on the procedure for disassembly. In any case, from your description the machine stops due to overheating. By DVD burning procedure, the CPU activity increases and reached the critical level. To protect the equipment unit simply turns off automatically.

    When the unit is not removed you can not see the situation inside. I recommend to communicate with the technicians and let them clean the unit in a professional manner.

  • Need a new CD-RW/DVD combo drive for Satellite 1805 - S274

    Hello, everyone!

    I have a portable Satellite 1805-S274 with a CD-RW/DVD defective (MAST * A UJDA710). It does not read the CD or write anything. I tried to clean it, but no response. I think he's dead now.

    I wonder if it is possible to replace it with a new drive? This model can adapt? Where to buy? Is there an internal model for writing CD and DVD?

    I would be very happy for any advises.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Andrei,

    CD/DVD players are generally classified as IDE (internal drive enclosure) which are located primarily in the desktop computers and 'slim' that are usually used in laptops.

    Your UJDA710 falls into the category of 'slim', so you should be able to substitute any Player DVD of the same specification. You can buy a DVD player base of various suppliers (check Google) and you will then need to transfer any hardware Assembly of your old drive to the new. This will cause by unscrewing the mounting brackets, plastic trim panels and possibly the flange.

    I changed my TEAC DW224E existing for a carpet * a UJ825 so that I could burn DVDs.

    Another consideration that might be important for you is the type of CD/DVD media. I chose the UJ825 because it does not use a sliding drawer to hold the CD/DVD, an important issue for me because my son had already broken the original disc once drawer.
    The UJ825 uses a mechanism of power split that I find much safer to use.

    One last point is the setting of your new drive. More slim drives design are pre-set by the manufacturer to master or Cable Select, and you must make sure that you buy corresponds to the current value of your existing drive. If you install with the wrong setting that your laptop does not start correctly. Check the other postings in these forums for this problem.

  • Satellite 1805-S274: cannot reformat using the recovery CD!

    I'm trying to reformat my computer laptop 1805-s274 Toshiba, using the Toshiba Recovery disk, but it won't work! The computer made an attempt to play the disc (which is in good condition, not damaged).
    It goes to the "Welcome to Toshiba Recovery Utility" screen, and then when I press F1 to continue, it will to the "layout guard-Are you Sure you really want to do this?" screen. When I press 'C' to continue, it just goes back to the Toshiba start screen.

    It keeps doing this cycle, but nothing else. I had problems with my attack Windows registry. They won the battle?

    Help, please! Thank you.

    Hello

    Generally, it should be possible to recover the device with the CD of Toshiba recovery without any problem. Eventually, there is an error on the HARD disk.
    You should try to format the HARD disk without using the Toshiba Recovery CD.

  • Satellite 1800-S274: HDD upgrade questions

    I have a TOSHIBA SATELLITE 1800-S274 P III 1.1 G 512 MB with XP PRO Spanish

    Part c: PS183U-00JRSPNC Serial Nr: 32014957PU
    The keyboard and the OS is Spanish.

    The HARD drive was accident, restart the PC, with a blue windows with the error text impossible to read because it quickly restart again.
    Cannot access the HARD disk also with other means or connected to another PC boot disk.

    PROBLEM 1) what type of disk HARD can I put up what capacity?
    (the original HARD drive is MK2018GAP. Capacity 20 GB 4200 RPM ATA4)
    I read on the net that is perhaps the BIOS accept more than 60 GB or HDD companies other than Toshiba. Is this true?

    In my country, the best ratio price/GB is a 80 or 120 GB 5400 RPM also label of Toshiba.
    I put these?

    Here is a best value of HARD drive:
    Toshiba 40 GB 5400 RPM UDMA100 (MK4032GAX)
    Toshiba 60 GB 5400 RPM UDMA100 (MK6034GAX)
    Toshiba 80 GB 5400 RPM UDMA100 (MK8025GAS)
    Toshiba 80 GB 5400 RPM UDMA100 (MK8032GAX)
    Toshiba 80 GB 5400 RPM UDMA100 (MK8026GAX)
    Toshiba 120 GB 5400 RPM UDMA100 (MK1234GAX)

    PROBLEM 2) I can not find my installation CD of Spanish XPpro but my laptop has a certificate of authenticity Microsoft of OEM.
    I contacted Microsoft, they say I have to ask the builder OEM installation with a CD XPpro OEM but there not sure they give me this.
    I don't want to buy a new OS, and I can't restore it because the HARD disk is damaged.

    How can install OS on the new HARD drive?

    My laptop its 6 years if I have to buy the HARD drive and OS XPpro is not a good deal.
    Maybe I can try to install an old Win 2000 pro I have. Do you think that it work on my type of laptop? And readers are available for my type of laptop?

    Thanks a lot for your help

    I also believe that you can use the 60 GB HARD drive for this oldie.

    Please don't be crazy about me, but how you want to install the operating system if you don't want to buy the CD of facilities? If someone give you something for free or what. You can try to order the original recovery media, but in my opinion, it is not in stock, or you can buy the CD of original Microsoft facilities. If you check eBay you can find a used one and have it for little money.

    Hello people!

    I have a problem with my Satellite 1805-S204 laptop, it was working fine and then one day it stopped working! It seems that I have no power at all and I was wondering if maybe I could chat with people who know this model and find out why this has happened.

  • Satellite 1805-204 does not start

    Computer laptop just down one day, said the motherboard was the question replacing the motherboard with a new Board of Directors. Always the same thing.

    Green power lights, LCD begins lights HD then stops. Then maybe two or three hours or days before able to get that much. Replace the CPU & fan climb too. Almost brand new. Please, any help would be great. Support where I bought the jury does not return calls or e-mail, won't throw $ 150.00 at the door. Check the power pack.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    First of all, you should tell us what laptop, you have exactly. The! 805 204 does not know me do you mean Satellite 1805-204?

    OK, the motherboard has been exchanged and also CPU. I m right?
    It's really hard to say why laptop stops itself but perhaps the new mother card is too bad and you're lucky just bald.
    In addition, perhaps he could a problem with the AC adapter. If you can try another adapter, check this please!

    15 GB HARD DRIVE

    I recently installed at 256 MB of memory and it seems that the memory slots. To develop my memory 512 MB what should I remove the memory of 128 MB and replace it with a 256?
    Addition, how else can in I put this laptop? I could increase the HARD drive? How could I increase it with 512 MB of memory?

    Hello

    It is not easy to find specific info on older models of laptops. According to the mobile news it can handle with max 512 MB of RAM. Compatible RAM module is KTT-SO815/256 256 MB memory-(Kingston). With the help of two of them you can have max RAM and laptop will go much quicker.

    Disk HARD is not easy to say with certainty, but I think that you can pass to 30 or even 60 GB, but 30 should not be a problem.
