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 - 521 RAM upgrade only works with original RAM in place

    I am trying to upgrade the memory to 2 GB, as described in the user manual.

    The computer does not start with the two new modules inserted. It will start with 1 GB installed in each slot until the original 256 MB module is inserted in the drive on the right, but does not work when the two 1 GB modules are inserted. There are 2 slots and the maximum is 2 GB for this computer. It told me to update the BIOS that I have on this site, but did not work.

    I am currently using 1 modules of 1 GB and 256 MB provided with the computer module. I have a Toshiba Satellite A100-521.

    Hello!

    The two new modules have the same specifications as the old module?

    In my opinion, the new modules are perhaps not fully compatible with your laptop or are not compatible in Dual Channel mode.
    What is the exact label of the two modules?

    For the upgrade, you need DDR2-533 modules. I searched a bit using Google and the reference is PA3411U-1M1G.

  • Problem upgrading to Satellite A100-011 (PSAARE) RAM

    I have the Satellite A100 - 011 (PSAARE) and I just upgraded memory RAM of 4 GB 2x2gb Kingston (KTT533D2 / 2G).
    BIOS can see all my 4 GB installed, so my windows (x 64) but my task manager shows me 3069 Mo!
    How is that possible? Is it possible to fix this? My BIOS version is 6,00.

    Thank you!

    Hello!

    Are you sure that you have a 64-bit version of Windows XP?
    I ask this question because the Web from Toshiba website does no drivers for Windows XP 64-bit.

    If you really have a 64 bit OS make sure that you have installed all Service Packs and patches from Microsoft.

    And install a program such as Everest and watch this program shows the amount of RAM.

  • Satellite A100-011 with Vista: DVD-ram UJ-850 s can not burn DVDs dual layer

    Hello

    cannot find answers to my problem, so start a new topic.
    Having Satellite A100-011 with Vista preinstalled and Mat * a DVD - RAM UJ-850 s (firmware 1.10).

    Recently installed Nero 7.5.9 and you want to burn DVD (6, 5 GB) media dual layer (Immation - Ritek).

    First time Nero stopped with information: could not perform start of Disc At Once (without damaging the media).
    After that, run Nero as Windows XP - SP2 program and burn half the disc (first layer), but when to start to burn the second layer (I guess), stop once again with the same error information (could not perform start of DAO).

    Simple disc burning layer without problem.

    Anyone any idea how to solve this problem?
    Thank you
    Luci

    Hello

    tried to record double-layer of a different brand? Maybe you should try it, because sometimes certain brands are not really taken in charge or not very well. And check the toshiba (or google) pilot site for new drivers or firmware for this drive, sometimes that it really helps.

    I think that the media are not really compatible, I ve read some similar problems in the roxio forum and they solved by using another brand.

    Would be nice if you give some information on this case... :)

However, I can't have my bluetooth appears or use it. I tried to install the 3.00 Vista bluetooth stack, but it didn't work. Why isn't my bluetooth device and function appear anywhere in windows 7?

  • Re: Satellite A100-011 does not start, a black screen at the beginning

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A100-011, which is almost 5-6 years. It suddenly started to behave abnormal.

    First of all, I started to get a 1-2 sec black screen when he was running. The screen was on and off occasionally.

    After a few days, I could not started upward from my windows xp sp3 operating system. I tried to start in safe mode with networking to see if I had a few spy, virus or something. I ran avast, hijact, ad-aware and some more, but not found anything.

    Later, I tried to format my laptop with a xp professional, but this time I can't see any reflection that passes more fun running and a black screen. I just got a black screen at the beginning and it does not start.

    I plugged on a television screen, and here I have started. I have re-installed all the drivers and formatted, but all I get is a black screen on my laptop at the beginning.

    What should I do now? Do you think I have a problem with my screen of HW or a driver problem with nvidia geforce go 7600? Maybe I'm missing something?

    Thanks in advance for all replies.

    If you can see the picture on the TV there are a few s laptop display problem. Y at - it some problem connection or display itself.

    You want to fix it yourself? You can disassemble the laptop?
    I mean if you have any experience with this kind of things that you should seek professional help.

  • Satellite A100-011 graphics card replacement

    Recently, I've had graphics GeForce Go 7600 in my laptop Satellite A100-011 beloved suffer damage because of the known problem with mobile bumps thermals in copper on the series GeForce 7/8/9 of the graphics chips. :_| I work at HP and get us a large number of these problems too, hope that Nvidia burn for this. Map is now partially defective, 3D is completely busted, but at least 2D works for now.

    I had almost the same problem a year and a half when the laptop comes out the guarantee and I brought to ideal electronics, it is the company that provides the service for Toshiba here in Athens, Greece.

    They were very kind to this topic and allowed me to buy an additional warranty year whereas they might change my free graphics card. I took a snapshot of that card faulty chart, they replaced, here it is:
    http://img357.imageshack.us/i/12062008gq8.jpg/

    However, when I went today at the same company for the second time after that the second card suffered the same fate as the first, I was not so lucky. This time there is a kid who tried to convince me that the graphics on this model cannot be changed without changing the whole motherboard.

    I tried to explain to him that they have already changed graphics in my machine without changing the Board of Directors, but he was holding with arrogance its soil, then I turned and left, like changing the Council too would cost more that this laptop is worth.

    The only option for me if I want to save this laptop is somehow, get the graphics card, and change myself. The problem is that Toshiba does not publicly list the parts reference numbers in their laptops, or if this is the case I of course was not able to find it. If someone could find the part number of the GeForce Go 7600 card in my laptop I would be very grateful, because I have to disassemble the laptop everything to check on a sticker on the card itself. Also, if you know some other card compatible with this laptop, I'd be happy to hear about it. In addition, if you know an online retailer who delivers the Toshiba laptop parts at the international level it would be a great help.

    My product number is PSAARE-04800VGE. If I'm not able to change the graphics on this laptop, I use it as a web browsing machine until a graphics chip dies completely.

    Hello

    To my knowledge, the graphics card is not replaceable. It s part of the motherboard and you need to replace the whole motherboard if the graphics card is dead.

    Unfortunately, but in my opinion there is nothing to see.
    You will need to change the whole mobo.

  • Satellite A100-011 - screen shaking

    A few days ago, I bought Samsung 23 "2343 monitor (VGA) and connected to my Satellite A100-011, but I quickly noticed screen shaking.
    Shaking disappears and appears at random times, and only when I use recommended Screen Resolution 2048 x 1152.
    Drivers and the operating system is not the problem, because the screen trembles when the bios, and external monitor is not broken (tried on Satellite A210 and ASUS EEE without problem).

    I would be very grateful for any information.

    Hello!

    Have you checked the user manual of your Satellite A100? I doubt that this is because there you can find the solution for this problem.

    According to the manual of your mobile phone supports the following screen resolutions:
    800 x 600
    1024 x 768
    1280 x 1024
    1600 x 1200
    1920 x 1440
    2048 x 1536

    It seems so that the screen resolution recommended to your monitor is not supported and that is the reason to shake the screen.

  • Need help to install the driver Intel Lan on a Satellite A100-011

    I bought Toshiba Satellite A100-011 with Windows Vista laptop. Now, I went down the operating system to Windows XP. The problem is how to install the Intel Lan driver. I would really appreciate any help, because there is no .exe file and I have no idea what to do with these files.

    Hey Buddy,

    the files that are in the zip file are really drivers, but you must install them manually which means you have to go into the Device Manager, look for the LAN device which should probably have an exclamation point and then right-click on it. After clicking on a wizard should appear which brings us to you trough the installation process. When the wizard application for pilots (if not found already automatically), and then point to the folder where the driver files.

    Then, everything should be good. :)

When I insert the restore CD, it will be cold as it should, but when the loading of Windows XP Home edition and then download the drivers from the Toshiba support site, my problems again.

    One question; have you noticed any problems with your operating system?
    I mean; is the computer laptop freezes or have you noticed some suddenly stops?
    These problems can be caused by a temperature inside the laptop and the laptop overheats.

    If the problems mentioned above don't appear, then the laptop doesn't overheat and I suppose that the temperature is not too high!
    I put t know if you have experience with laptop big or not, but there s nothing unusual that some areas of the laptop are much hotter than the others.
    Is what area of the laptop hot? Is there placed cooling modules?
