Satellite A100-487 - 4 GB RAM upgrade Possible?

• Satellite A100 - memory and hard drive upgrade

  Hi guys,.

  I have a Satellite A100-158 of the model code PSAA9E-01700VPT. It came with a 80 GB HDD at 5400 RPM S.M.A.R.T. and 1 GB of RAM DDR2 (533 MHz).

  I think that my computer slows to a crawl because maybe I thought the hard drive being old and low memory for recent programs and therefore upgrade the hard drive and memory.

  A Western Digital Scorpio Black 320 GB 7200 RPM 16 MB 2.5 inch would fit? According to them, it's running at 7200 RPM with the energy consumption of a drive 5400 RPM (marketing simply bad maybe).

  And a memory card Kingston 2 GB DDR2 800 MHz working? It has a higher frequency than my current ram, but then I guess he can withdraw maximum permitted by the motherboard? I guess that's 533 Mhz as my module memory factory. I can also buy a module 2 GB of the same manufacturer exact DDR 2 as well but 667 MHz instead... still higher than my current memory module.

  Thanks much for the tips... I hope that this will bring my A100 more in standards without going to a new laptop :)

  Hello

  Generally, a HARD drive with more RPM isn't a problem, but he needs a little more power and product more heat, but it should work.
  It s based on your application that you are running. For normal use, 5400 RPM should be ok.

  The modules of RAM with higher specifications are also no problem because it s downgrade compatible for lower speed (533 MHz).
  Kingston is always recommendable, I've never had a problem with these modules. :)

• Satellite A100-784: Replacement of RAM 533 =>> 677 MHZ

  Hello

  IM wondering if I can replace my old ram (2 x 512 533 MHZ) a 2 x 1024 but with 677 frequency?
  And here is my question. 677 MHZ is supported on my SATELLITE A100 784 or not?

  Hello

  Please use the search function because this topic has already been discussed.

  What CPU do you have? If your processor supports a FSB up to 667 Mhz and the RAM should be able to do the same. So if you install RAM with a 667 Mhz front bus and you have a processor that can handle this then you will get some benefits of upgrading memory 667 MHz.

  I recommend you to download * "CPU - Z" * and check your FSB. Then install the new memory and check again. If the FSB RAM then triggers your CPU supports the new FSB.

  A good choice for the RAM would be Kingston... ;)

• Satellite P100 - 216 (PSPADE) - CPU / RAM upgrade options

  Hello guys,.

  I just got a laptop Satellite P100-216 (PSPADE-01400UEN). (card: T5500 - GeForce Go 7600 512 mb, 200GB)

  It has a Core 2 Duo T5500 inside and I intend to upgrade as well as the RAM to make a good laptop for my wife.

  The question if CPU is supported (assuming that the latest version of the BIOS). I am interested in the series with FSB800 or same T9000 T7000 series (1066fsb) shall if possible because I can get them pretty cheap - I know that the T5500 is just 667fsb by itself, so I wonder if the higher FSB is supported or I stay with 667 Mhz.

  Have searched through the net, but no information so far. Would not buy CPU only for it being not recognized by the laptop.

  Any advice would be much appreciated.

  Kind regards

  It is very nice for laptop and if you want to upgrade the RAM upgrade for your wife. In combination with the operating system pre-installed and optimized its own missus will be like to work on this machine.

  Upgrade of RAM is quite problematic and you can do it alone. what you need to do is get the compatible modules and high quality.
  I think now P100 has 2 GB of RAM, but you can upgrade to 4 GB.

  As compatible modules, you can use
  TOSHIBA
  PA3513U-1M2G (memory 2 GB DDR2-667 Kit) or

  Kingston
  KTT533D2 / 2G 2GB 533 MHz Module
  KTT667D2 / 2G 2GB 667 MHz Module

  On the CPU upgrade, I would just say that we forget. As a first step, it is not necessary to do so and secondaly - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  Bye and good luck.

• Satellite A100 PSAARA - Questions about RAM, VGA and BIOS

  I used Toshiba Satellite A100 PSAARA, now I have a few questions:

  1. I have updated the BIOS for my laptop (new version 6.0 to version 5.10): everything seems to work ok, but after I rebooted the laptop, it automatically connect a black screen with these warning "checksum bad sectors, F1: default settings, F2:..." (remember exactly).
  I pressed F1, my Toshiba reboot works ok after that, so there's something wrong with this warning?

  2. I upgraded RAM to 2 GB (1 GB + 1 GB) with the KingMax brand, if the RAM expandable max I can do on my laptop?

  3. This Toshiba laptop use to edge or video card, I check my Nvidia geforce card real estate (laptop) and I saw this: memory: 256 MB + RAM shared memory: 256 MB = 512 MB of total memory?
  So: can I upgrade my card graph and maximum card that I can use?

  4. I cannot set 75 Hz for refresh monitor, can see 65 Hz

  Thanks for your help!

  1. try to load the default settings in the BIOS. Then it should work.

  2. the Satellite A100 supports 4 GB max.

  3. No, the graphics card can not be changed. It s soldered on the motherboard and cannot be exchanged.

  4. what internal or external monitor? Monitor internal and other s LCD works best with 60 Hz.

• Satellite A100-003: Question about RAM and recording model number

  Dear Sir/Madam,

  1. the first problem is that I bought the notebook of Toshiba Satellite A100-003 model. But when I tried to save the European web site of Toshiba with my serial number it says Satellite A100-011. I do not understand what it means that. But I do not know my phone model A100-003-PSAARE-0470257Z. The serial number of my laptop is: 17739127G

  2. Another problem is the European website of Toshiba and Turkey Toshiba official site (http://www.toshibatr.com/notebook_filter.asp?ktg=A100) says Rams are 533 MHz "2 048 (1, 024 + 1, 024) MB of RAM DDR2 (533 MHz)"but mine is at 266 MHz. "

  http://img510.imageshack.us/my.php?image=satellitea100003xg4.jpg

  I was wondering in Toshiba laptops of the Turkey has problems or handed in state something? I sent e-mail to the web site of Toshiba Turkey but they don't send me emails or information.

  Thank you for helping me,
  Halin

  Hello

  First of all your registration number is not a 'problem '. Maybe it s just a small mistake in their database. When I registered my P200 registration reported me another type as mine was, but after a call to the hotline of toshiba told me, that my machine is listed correctly in the database.
  Don t worry, register just she.

  With regard to the RAM:

  Do you know why's called it 'DDR' ram? That means 'RAM memory' and the goal is to double the frontsidebus.

  In your case, that means: the REAL AND PHYSICAL frontsidebus is 266 Mhz, but because the flow is double you have a 533 MHz frontsidebus (532, 34.Mhz).
  CPU - Z and WCPUID are simply display the physical clock of the RAM, but the frontsidebus double the signal and then you pure and authentic to 533 MHZ.

  I hope I could explain something to you. ;)

• Satellite A100: Mat * a DVD - RAM UJ - 841S will not play modern DVD

  It's weird, music CD's fine, game DVD and data DVDs no problem but if I want to watch a recent movie, my dvd drive is disabled. What a weird copy protection? I bought this partially to watch movies when the main TV set wasn't available and I feel ripped off the coast. Old DVDs are fine (the monster inc etc). Work on this late nights trying to see what is wrong. The DVD even work on my friends mac so I don't understand. He believes that it is a windows thing done on purpose.

  CD/DVD TEST (D:\) PLAYER MADE FAIL

  Could you tell us what films (title), you have a problem with?
  Perhaps you have trouble with the more recent Double-Layer (9 GB) DVD.

  Of course, it may be a copy protection, too cause some movies using a very unusual way to make sure that they play on a "locked region" disc.
  Using any software on your laptop that are able to "Rip" or "simulate" a DVD? If so, that the existence of such software could prevent the normal functioning of the specific movie titles

  Many films are also not not not to work on the readers of 'Region free '. These DVD movies check if your player is able to play a 'region' that is different than the current DVD that plays, and if they do, they will not start.

  Give us some comments over on that and perhaps we can find the reason for your question.

• Satellite S3000-214: HD and RAM upgrade

  I want to upgrade a Satellite S3000-214 with a new hard drive and RAM.
  Anyone know how I can upgrade the HD? It is currently only 20 GB.
  About the RAM, I tried to upgrade before but abandoned after Misco sent me upgrades wrong a few times. Does anyone know a supplier who could have a sales team could sell me the good memory?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  It is possible to upgrade the HDD up to 30 GB.
  The BIOS should recognize this format without any problem. You can use a simple 2.5 bus master IDE HDD.

  It is also possible a memory upgrade for max 1024 MB

• Satellite L10-119 freezes after RAM upgrade

  My Satellite L10 is 4 years old. I wanted to update this change of RAM and HARD disk.
  I installed in RAM DDR1 SoDimm 1 GB PC-3200 (a unit) and used my computer for a few hours.

  But next time, he started to make mistakes and freeze or stop going to the blue screen.
  When I use DDR1 SoDimm 512 MB PC-2700 as a single unit, everything is OK.

  Will not track with * 1 Gb PC - 3200 * to use?

  Hello

  Case is clear!
  > When I use DDR1 SoDimm 512 MB PC-2700 as a single unit, everything is OK
  You used the not entirely compatible RAM modules!
  This is the reason why your laptop freezes!

  The fact is that your L10 can be upgraded to 1 GB RAM max, this means you need to use max 512 MB RAM module in a slot

  In addition, you can use the PC2700 200 pins (333 Mhz) DDR SODIMM modules and not of PC3200

• Satellite C660 PSC1JE - 8 GB RAM upgrade problems

  Fellow owners of Toshiba,

  I have a Satellite C660-PSC1JE-00Y00XHU with 3 GB RAM (1 + 2) I want to go to 8 GB.

  I went out and bought 2 x 4 GB, but so far no of the below those worked (the computer restarts or stop):
  http://www.Amazon.com/Kingston-Technology-1333MHz-KTT-S3BS-4G/DP/B00B2UWSD4
  http://www.Kingston.com/dataSheets/KVR16S11S8_4.PDF
  I was not to mix memories above, purchased two of each. Certainly, these operate at higher MHz and they aren't memories KIT, so that may be the issue.

  According to the specifications of the laptop (SEE attachment), I should be able to move to 8 GB.
  I found the following thread here, but it is not help me solve this problem: https://forum.toshiba.eu/showthread...RAM+memory+8gb

  I found my memories at Intel:
  http://www.Intel.com/content/www/us/en/platform-memory/DDR3-1333-n-ECC-SODIMM-validation-results.html?wapkw=m471b2873fhs
  Two of my memories have a value of 'B' in the R/C column, but what that means? I ask, it is because in the list, there are two 4 GB memory listed thus:
  M471B5273CH0-CH9
  M471B5273BH1-CH9
  But these memories have a 'F' in R/C column. Is that mean that they didn't work with the tested chipset?

  I found a KIT on amazon, where PSC1JE is registered: http://amzn.com/B00WAFGDTK
  But on the important information of the product section, only C655 notebooks are listed.

  Another thing I noticed, is that support for DDR3 frequency on my motherboard is only 533 MHz, but the memories that came with the laptop are 666,7 MHz. Does that mean I shouldn't buy same PC3-10600 memory, since it would not even capable of running at full speed?

  What I absolutely have to buy KIT or can I go out with two sticks of Samsung 4 GB?

  I am at a loss. Can someone point me in the direction of someone who can check what memory modules I need in order to have 8 GB in my notebook?

  Thank you
  David

• Satellite A100-596 - I need to upgrade memory

  Hello

  Just got a laptop A100-596 & guard lock up on me. I think I need to upgrade the memory because it has only 512 MB.

  Question is what should I? I know that RAM DDR2 (533 MHz) but what voltage. The news of the Toshiba site do not help much, & scan critical system does not list the laptop model.

  See you soon,.

  rocksasga

  The tension is not very important.
  You can use DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM modules

  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=28732&ft=m&St=3

  The laptop supports FSB 533 Mhz and so there is no sense to upgrade the memory with a 667 Mhz modules.

  So take the PC2 - 4200 SODIMM 200-PIN and you're on the side course ;)
