Satellite A100-768: processor upgrade?

Hello

I have a Toshiba Satellite a100-768
is it possible to upgrade the processor?
I would buy a cpu merom and install this one...
or is the processor soldered to the motherboard?

Kind regards
brechtvm

Hello

The answer is no, it is not possible to replace the processor in a Toshiba laptop. The processors used in laptops are connected to the motherboard using a process called TCP (tape carrier package). It is a method of permanent connection and is used in the interest of miniaturization and heat dissipation.

By the way: A100 is one of the latest devices and I don t understand why you want to swap the CPU. Why you didn t buy best camera has better CPU performance?

    Graphics processor / vendor: ATI Mobility Radeon X 1400 HyperMemory to 512 MB - PCI Express x 16

    Thank you and excuse my English

    Hello

    It is not possible.
    As far as I know, you cannot change this value manually.
    The graphics card controls the HyperMemory and assigns this value automatically.

    If you want to have more RAM (main memory) and then update the modules of memory on your laptop
    2 GB (2 x 1024MB) are recommended.

    Good bye

    Hello

    Go to the [page driver Toshiba | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp] and choose your model to see if Win 7 64 bit drivers are available. AFAIK, most of the Vista driver is compatible with Windows 7. So, I guess it will work

    I have laptop Satellite A100-011. And I want to improve his memory. It has 1 GB of ram DDR2 533 hz. My questions are the following;
    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 stops after upgrade memory

    Consider me the thickie Pack 1... Not sure wot im talkin end but n e way...
    Have a Satellite A100 570 (PSAA2E)...

    Tried several websites online lookin for memory upgrade. Did not have the witt to use the toshiba site... Eventually get to the point...
    Ran the Diagnostics on laptop and sent module one needed.or so I thought... wrong 1 or 1 s I bought 2 x 1 G modules in order to 'double '...

    Got my money because they were not compatible with my system... something to do with the problems of density...
    Tried company called OFFTEK... they seemed to know what they were talkin' about... I'm Offtek. at present one...

    200-pin 1.8V SoDimm PC2 - 4200 DDR2... but Toshiba recommended below...

    1 GB memory DDR2 PC2-4300 (533 MHz)
    Part number: PA3411U-2M1G
    1024 MB (1 GB) memory PC2 - 4300 DDR2 (533 MHz)

    Theres an obvious difference... 4200 and 4300. But I'm not sure if there is a significant difference... or what it means
    Update the bios to the version latest and basically put all that toshiba had to offer for this model...

    EVEREST ran and it recognizes the module 1 G but when I pull out the original 512 MB module, the laptop starts for about 3 seconds then stops...
    This repeats about 5 times then fill stop...

    I don't like open the back cover too often but it's the 3rd module...
    Don't know what is supposed to happen if the module works... IE launch message... dunno if windows recognizes module 1 G...
    Would be - this bet safer to send Offtek module and stick with option of toshiba...

    Thanks in advance...

    Hey Buddy

    Have a look here:
    Memory for Toshiba Satellite A100-570
    http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=23658&ft=m&St=3

    You can use the DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM bars!

    The pc2-4300 Rams are the same as PC2-4200. It s just a marketing gag PC2-4300 are PC2-4200 modules that can be overclocked by some versions of BIOS PC desktop

    However, you must take the PC2-4200.

  • 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.

    Concerning

    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.

  • Satellite A100-386 - HDD upgrade question

    Hello everyone and happy new year.

    First of all, sorry for my bad English.

    I bought a Satellite A100-386 a few years and I'm really happy, but my hard drive has failed.
    So, I wanted to know if I could put a 2.5 "SATA II disk, like this.

    http://www.materiel.NET/Disque-Dur/Hitachi-Travelstar-5k500-b-s-ATA-II-250-go-8-mo-48900.html

    because when I see the characteristics of the satellite, they mention a hard drive with only S - ATA.
    Y at - it compatibility?

    Thank you answer :)

    Bye bye

    Hello

    Yes, I think that this should be possible.
    The A100 supports hard drives SATA controller, and theoretically, you can use any HARD SATA 2.5 drive.

  • Re: Satellite A100-803 - CPU Upgrade question

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-803 at the moment. There is an Intel Core 2 Duo T5200 inside and it is a bit slow. Also, it does not support VT - x extensions.

    My idea is to build a simple hobby-server which should run Gentoo with Xen on it. I can buy an Intel Core 2 Duo T7600, but there are two things I'd like to know.

    1 the bios does support the Intel Core 2 Duo T7600?
    2. If she supports the Intel Core 2 Duo T7600, is it possible to use VT - x extensions?

    > 1. The bios supports the Intel Core 2 Duo T7600?
    It is not known to me, but you should check if the chipset supports the Intel Core 2 Duo T7600. If the chipset does not support this CPU you can not use this CPU in your A100. But if the chipset would support the new CPU then you ve good chances to use this component.

    > 2. If she supports the Intel Core 2 Duo T7600, is it possible to use VT - x extensions?
    Hmm, that's a good question; as far as I know the BIOS must support the feature VT - x to use it of course the CPU must support this too so I think that VT - x should be available if the update for Intel Core 2 Duo T7600 would be successful
