Satellite A100-036 - memory to 4 GB upgrade possible?

• Increasing memory Satellite A100-036

  Hello!

  I would like to increase the memory of my Satellite A100-036 (psaan), as 1 GB appears to be insufficient to run Vista. The problem is, I can't know which would support my A100. Now I have 512 x 2 Samsung DDR2 (533). I'm sure than 1x2GB (DDR2, 533) would be OK, but what about more? Say, 2x2gb?

  First of all, I'm not sure if chip 1x2GB would be supported by my A100. Any ideas?

  Secondly, I read somewhere that 4 GB would be supported by my Intel 945 chipset, but there is no point in it I do not have a 64-bit, 32-bit only supported ca.3.2 GB operating system. If that's true, I would be able to install 1 GB + 2 GB (3 GB total) and use it effectively? Are there recommendations on the combination of different volumes of memory chips (such as 2 GB and 512 MB)? Maybe it is better to have similar in volume?

  And one more thing: don't know if the chipset supports the faster memory (more than 553). And can I combine 553 and sth faster?

  Seems a lot of questions, but I hope that someone could find some time and help me!

  Thank you!!!

  I don't know, but your machine must be able to handle a maximum memory expansion up to 2GB. If you install more then it may happen that the machine either does not or simply memory another beyond 2 GB could not properly acknowledged and your machine breaks down.

• Satellite A100-036 + Windows XP SP2-> Solution Guide

  Toshiba Satellite A100-036
  PSAANE-03K011G3

  Comes with Microsoft Windows Vista

  The problem:

  The HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GMA-4082N is NOT working property behind Vista, so for this reason, I would like to put Windows XP, why!

  Because after a few writings with the Vista DVD player 'kill' pilots and the DVD is unusable and tryes all to return to the job comes with message INCOMPATIBLE VERSION of the stupid Vista drivers.
  So the solution is to use the recovery DVDs Toshiba who cannot back up user files and folders!

  So when we get the Windows Vista and the machine is ready for work that we can use it for another 3-7 on DVD and BOOOM's written we need to repeat the same procedure, because Vista is not detect the DVD drive?

  Now how to put back the good Windows XP or Linux can be?
  When we look in the forum, we find the only solution that can help us:

  "Look at the bottom of your laptop for PSAAxxxx letters." If it's PSAANE, then the drivers are for the PSAA8xx model, as for the PSAARE model, it has PSAA9xx... Try it, it works for me. It has the same arhitecture. »

  But...

  The wireless controller is still doesn't work DO NOT
  The Texas Instruments Flash is still doesn't work DO NOT
  The Ethernet controller is still doesn't work DO NOT
  HD sound does NOT work

  ... so when I search several forums including Russian, Spanish and English I found (I thing) a solution.
  So, I'll share my knowledge with you!
  After downloading and installing all the drivers and updates for the appropriate model go and download a drivers for:

  Atheros AR5006EG Wireless Network adapt - Installation and search for the Windows Update *.
  Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Integrated FlashMedia Controller - installation and search for the Windows Update *.

  -(Gestionnaire de périphériques-> l'appareil manquée-> Mark «Oui cette fois seulement» et nous allons Rechercher le bon pilote windows et voila il a trouvé le bon pilote)

  Model:

  Reference number:
  PSAANE-03K011G3
  BIOS Version 5.10
  Processor Genuine Intel(r) CPU T2060 1.60 GHz

  So now I have a WORKING Toshiba Satellite with WORK of all the drivers and software and of course I make an image with Norton Ghost, so if I have future problems with my laptop, so I'll come back in a few minutes.
  Yes it's true that the Toshiba Gadgets do not work, but for me is not so big problem; 0
  Enjoy!

• Windows vista on the Satellite A100-036 problems

  Hello. I have a Toshiba satellite A100-036 laptop with windows vista home basic 32-bit, and I have the following problems.

  1. they replace me the hard drive in a store. I don't have the Toshiba dvd recovery I used to format the windows. They told me that I can't use it more because the recovery of the disk partition is lost. If I want to format again what should I do?

  2. whenever I turn on the laptop touchpad scrolling does not work. I go to control panel > mouse and it shows me this message: "unable to connect to the score. synaptics device driver. If you have installed another pointing PS/2 device driver please uninstall the synaptics driver by clicking on the Yes button. You must then reinstall your device pointing to your external device driver again. You want to uninstall the synaptics driver now? "I click on no and once it works again and the synaptics pointing device icon reappear in the taskbar. If I restart the laptop, it still does not work and I do the same things.

  3. whenever I turn on the laptop the bluetooth does not work and the bluetooth icon does not appear in the taskbar. I have to go to Device Manager, uninstall the driver, go to control panel > bluetooth local com and it works again. Whenever I turn on the laptop I have to do this.

  4. everytime I turn on the laptop the Security Center is turned off and I put in market or the automatic updates are disabled and I have to turn them on.

  5. sometimes it does not install the automatic updates and it shows me Error 8000FFFF.
  Could someone help me? Thank you.

  > 1. they replaced the hard drive in a store. I don't have the Toshiba dvd recovery I used to format the windows. They told me that I can't use it because the recovery of the disk partition is lost. If I want to format again what should I do?
  If you have the Toshiba recovery disc in the past, you can use it as part of the new HARD drive. The Toshiba Recovery disk would fix the laptop back to factory settings, which means that you have installed Windows system, Toshiba drivers and additional software.

  > 2. The touchpad scrolling does not work everytime I turn on the laptop. I go to control panel > mouse and it shows me this message: "unable to connect to the score. synaptics device driver.

  > I click on no and once it works again and the synaptics pointing device icon reappear in the taskbar. If I restart the laptop, it still does not work and I do the same things.
  Go to the page of the Toshiba UE driver and download the driver for the Synaptics touchpad. Install the touchpad driver and reboot the laptop. Usually, this should solve your problem.

  It's strange. Usually the BT should work if the BT stack has been installed correctly. Please note that you must activate the BT using the fn (FN + F8). This combination turns on and the WiFi also. So make sure you did it correctly.

  > 4. Whenever I turn on the laptop the Security Center is turned off and I have to turn it on or automatic updates are disabled and I have to turn them on.

  Please check this: [turn auto update or disable | http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/turn-automatic-updating-on-off#turn-automatic-updating-on-off=windows-vista]

• Fans will not run after wakup mode standby on the Satellite A100-036

  After the awakening of economic breakdown (low cost) continuous mode... When the laptop start normally, fan just runs. That program locking systems (not) operating fan turns.
  I'm sorry for the English. Aint Englishman;).

  My laptop is Toshiba Satellite A100-036 with Vista Home Basic.

  Hello

  There is no special application that could control the laptop fans!
  The Vista and BIOS itself control the cooling modules!

  I do not know if these tips will help you to solve this problem, but you should definitely check out if m your use of the latest version of the BIOS.
  But don t mix the different laptop series! Do not forget that you have chosen that good BIOS and the good Bios update procedure.
  In addition, try to install all the updates Vista available! The Vista operating system supports an update automatically option. Try this!

• Satellite A100-036 - label Microsoft OEM are broken

  Hello!

  Tag Microsoft OEM on my Satellite A100-036 (s/n 37059063Q) has been partially damaged, and I can't read product s/n (Windows Vista HB).

  How can I fix this label? Or I have to buy the new OS?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  The serial key belongs to the Windows operating system which is part of the Toshiba recovery image.
  This means that, in most cases you cannot use it as part of other versions of Windows.
  Moreover Windows system which is part of the image is already enabled for this serial key is not really necessary
  If you don t have a recovery disk (maybe you forget to create it in the past) you could try to order it here: http://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
  But I don't very well if this would be possible because of the age of the computer laptop m

  In the case otherwise you need a Microsoft disk to install the Windows OS, but in this case, each Microsoft Windows disk is provided with own serial key

• Satellite A100-036 - disturbing noise from power supply

  Hello!

  I use Satellite A100-036. Lately, I've noticed a whistling top-height standard adapter Toshiba coming, sort of some fluorescent lamps do, only much quieter.

  Yet, the adapter is on the table near the laptop, is disturbing. The character changes with the activity of the laptop (as the disk in use).

  Should I be worried, or is it OK?
  As I remember, there was no this sound when I bought it (2 years ago).

  Thank you!

  My adapter was defective. The cable broke and similar high-pitch whistles was so noticeable.
  I replaced the adapter because as Akuma said already this device uses high voltage and shouldn't t serve if she s defective!

• Re: upgrade Satellite A100-232 memory

  I want to be as sure as I can be, I already bought memory from Crucial - it does not work... so I want to be sure that I understand the next time.

  Satellite A100-232, currently has 512 MB - I believe that I can go up to 2 GB and understand that 2 x 1 GB is better than 1 x 2 GB - is this true?

  Next - WHO? memory - based on a search on their site, I bought 2 x 1 GB sticks of Crucial, they advised DDR2 PC2 5300 and it did not work. Despite repeated emails, they insist that these sticks are the 'replacement' for DDR2 PC2 4200 (who is now strongly indicated to me according to my recent research such as correct memory - part # PA3411U-1M1G).

  If I buy now 2 x 1 GB - DDR2 PC2 4200 (from a different supplier of course) will I do the right thing? Assuming that the new work of memory, I get in touch with Crucial for money (of course).

  > Satellite A100-232, currently has 512 MB - I believe that I can go up to 2 GB and understand that 2 x 1 GB is better than 1 x 2 GB - is this true?

  You can upgrade the RAM to 2 GB and generally, you must use 2 x 1 GB RAM 533 Mhz.
  In my case, a big module was not recognized. I had to use 2 x 1 GB of RAM, but I put t have this template.

  I recommend using brand modules; Kingston is good and provides good quality modules.
  Different manufacturers provide less expensive modules but the performance and the quality is not really good.
