Satellite 5200 701: RAM problem?

Similar Questions

• Satellite 5200 701 does not start!

  I have a Satellite 5200 701. The problem started a while Win XP suddenly hung up, when I moved the PC from one place to the other. Then it got worse and now that the Toshiba screen appears and then everything stops. When I swith it turns off and try again the display will be turned off and only the lights of the system and the blue subscreen will light up.

  I send the laptop toward the center of German support and they apparently could not understand any problem. HARD drive and RAM have been tested as well as a test of effort for motherboard was made.

  Does anyone have another idea?

  Hello

  Well, this is a strange question.
  What do you mean by moved from one place to the other PC. ?
  Did you use a wireless connection if you have moved to another place?
  I guess you unit loses the connection to a wireless local area network and then he tries to connect again.
  Perhaps that is a reason? But that's only my guess.

  Well, in addition I propose to recovery your unit with the original recovery CD Toshiba.

• Satellite 5200 701: FN keys do not work

  Hello

  I installed my Satellite 5200 701 with Windows XP. Everything works fine. My only problem is that the FN keys do not work. I downloaded and installed all the drivers available from the home page, but it still doesn't work. Can you please send me what kind of driver I need exactly? I also looked for a guide of installation but I did ' t find one to download? Sorry for the bad English, I'm from the Germany.

  Hello

  I put t know if you have the original Tools & Utilities CD for this camera. If so there must be advice that the common modules (V.5.03.00) must be installed as a first step, before you install any other tool or utility. This order of the facilities is very important because the common modules is a kind of module which is very important for the other features of the tools.

  Also check out this CD if there is some sort of html file with installation instructions. If you can't find anything please post again. Maybe we can find something to help you.

  Good luck!

• Satellite 5200 701: I can't use the TV-out more.

  Hello
  This is my first post on this forum. I have a Satellite 5200 701 for 3 years now. I can't watch movies on my TV. I could use this function in the past.

  Last November, I formatted my laptop with CD from Toshiba. As I didn't have a TV, I tried not using the TV function. But now that I have a (different) TV, I tried to use it without success.
  When I press Fn + F5, nothing happens. When I go to the selection of the screen, I can select the 2nd display but in "Advanced", I can't find the same features I've had in the past (before formatting). I don't have the Nview utility in "Advanced"...
  Is this a driver problem? NVIDIA, Toshiba or Microsoft? Problem of material...?

  I don't know how to solve this problem.

  Kind regards
  jimbow

  It cool s that you have solved the problem.
  Thanks for the information. It could be very useful for users of the Toshiba a different forum.

• Satellite 5200 701: which cable should I connect to PJ2 port on motherboard

  Hello world.

  Currently, I am trying to fix a laptop Satellite 5200 701. The keyboard and touchpad are both dead but see the place in the Device Manager.

  When I opened the folder, I found the motherboard has an empty on port marked PJ2.
  When I looked in to it that I discovered that this is a port to connect a cable that feeds power to the keyboard, so I think that's the problem.

  My problem is trying to find out what wire should be connected to it and what another port.

  If someone could help, I would be grateful.
  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  How can you come to the idea that the keyboard needs some extra internal powersupply? The keyboard has only one connector that is important, and this is the connector of the KEYBOARD. Only this and nothing else.
  If there is an empty port then it has nothing to do an extra wire must be connected or whatever.

  Another thing: If the keyboard and touchpad appear in Device Manager then why they do not work? Didn t you think a software framework could be the problem? Please try another operating system, a linux live CD might be a good choice to make sure that the keyboard and the touchpad are really not work.

  Simply reconnect the keyboard and then try a linux live CD (knoppix would be a good choice, but you can also try ubuntu) to check if it work s.

• Satellite 5200 701: how to replace CD player?

  Hello everyone. Sorry, I can't write with some errors.
  I have laptop satellite s5200-701, & a few days previously, cd-rom cd-rom has been breaking. "Views" on Windows, but the cd-rom device cannot read the CD or DVD. I drank new device (TEAC DW-224th) but I cannot eject old cd-rom. Pouvez you unmasked me how I can change it.
  Andrew.

  Hello Andrew

  Replace the drive on Satellite 5200 is very complicated, and most of the aircraft must be dismantled. Problem is that the CD/DVD drive is set on the system board.

  If you are not familiar with the procedure for disassembly please don t do it alone. Believe me it's very complicated.

• Question about Diplay driver and upgrade - Satellite 5200 903 RAM

  Hello

  I ve got an old book of 5200-903 and I m lovin it. I installed the driver Nvidia Support Toshiba Download Page. But I can´t find any display driver again? I m only using the standard Windows Plug and Play Driver? Has anyone found a driver for the display for best results?

  Another question: I want to upgrade my RAM. For now I m using 2 x 256 MB DDR 266 Mhz CL 2.5. What is the maximum that supports the book? A tested person faster DDR RAM? As 333 MHz RAM?

  Thank you for having responded

  > I installed the driver Nvidia Support Toshiba Download Page. But I can´t find any display driver again?

  Sorry but I don't understand what's your problem now. On the Toshiba support page you can find the driver NVIDIA V 43.36 for WXP (listed for Satellite 5200 903). Am I wrong? If you have installed this driver for the graphics card must be properly recognized and listed in the Device Manager.

  So now, I have to ask you once again: what exactly is the problem with display driver?

  On RAM:
  Your laptop can handle with max of 1024 MB. You can use the module 2 x 512 MB. Module of 512 MB compatible a part PA3164U - 1 M 51 number.

• Satellite 5200 701 SSD instead of HARD drive

  I have a 5200-701 and the HARD drive has a large number of bad sectors. So I would use a SSD instead of the HARD disk on a regular basis. Anyone know who is real and compatible? I also tried to install Vista but after start of the cd, the installation of vista tells me lack driver CD/DVD. I have a TEAC DW -? and vista seems to have problems with loading the atapi driver right?

  Do you mean that you want to use the Solid State Drive?

  HM, I think you're the first person here who would like to use this drive in this old notebook.
  To be honest I don't very well if you can use and if the BIOS support for m.
  But this is only a suggestion.

  In addition you must known that Vista can not be installed on each laptop. Vista needs a lot of resources and it s really counterproductive using Vista on this laptop because everything runs slower than using the other OS like Win XP for example.

  Finally and above all the Vista already contains the CD/DVD driver. It of a Microsoft driver and it s is not necessary and not possible to install a special driver ODD.
  It has the same like to use Win XP. You n t need any driver CD/DVD. The operating system should automatically recognise!

• Re: Satellite 5200 701: unknown device in Device Manager.

  Hello.

  It WinXP Pro + SP 3.
  In the display devices, such as an unknown device manager. Try all of the pilots, who were on a disc with the laptop, nothing helps. Give the solution!

  I still use Windows XP Home with Service Pack 2 and I'm really happy with it. If you have some problems with SP3 remove and continue to use Windows XP Home with Service Pack 2 only. Satellite 5200 is quite old but very nice laptop. Make sure that the laptop works fine with SP2 and you have an application of good-antivir.

  Simply to operate Satellite 5200. I noticed that many people have reported on various issues after installing SP3. Exactly the same thing with Vista SP1.
