Satellite A100-998 - support 2 GB RAM modules?

Hello

I'm looking to upgrade the memory of my laptop. The vehicle currently have 2x1GB modules in the expansion slots. The manual says it takes PC4200 200 pin memory, but does not specify if it will accept 2 GB sticks as this http://www.ebuyer.com/product/164911. It does not mention of the sticks of 256 MB, 512 MB and 1 GB.

However, I see no reason why he would not support the higher capacity, if I wanted to move to 4-GB memory total. Can someone confirm that this will work? Thank you!

Andrew

Hi André,.

According to the specs on the page of Toshiba, Satellite A100-998 supports 2-GB memory modules. This means that you can install the 2 GB of memory in each memory slot for a maximum capacity of 4 GB.

For example, I recommend high-quality Kingston modules. I always buy Kingston modules for upgrade and never had any problems.

    Hello.

    Hello

    I think the problem is that your computer has a sound card, which was designed for XP and not Vista. Thus, you need to download a special driver
    to make the Gizmo work.

  • Satellite A100-998: mono/stereo mix not available under Vista

    Windows Vista and the Microsoft default value "High definition Audio Device" driver (automatically selected and installed by Setup of Vista), no recording device is listed with the exception of the Microphone, Line In, CD Audio, as in this screenshot of the A100-998 in question:
    http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/1981/a100998jp6.PNG

    No new Mix or record Waveout options of the device, which means that you can not, for example, doesn't record audio stream on the Internet. I tried the latest drivers from Realtek HD Audio for Vista (30/11/2006 R1.52). No change. Is there a way/driver to enable this as in other Windows Vista machines.

    Is also the audio material in the A100-998 "Vista Premium Ready" with the specifications set out in the http://www.optimalsound.net/?

    It's the third disappointment. The first two were that he has not delivered with the announced NVIDIA GF7400 (came to the square with 7300) and the second is that the hard drive is 4200 RPM (instead of the advertised 5400).
    The third issue is the audio issue detailed above.

    Here is a solution I found, but it is not free (costs $US28.20) and requires users to manually switch the "playback devices" each time that they execute it:
    http://www.NCH.com.au/SoundTap/index.html
    Unlike other programs like Audacity which are based on the Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix as their sound source (and so do not work in this case), NCH SoundTap installs its own virtual driver and is therefore able to record everything you hear through your speakers in Windows Vista without the need for Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix. "All the sound elements are"typed"by a pilot virtual directly in the kernel, so the process is perfect digital quality."

    However, it would be better that Vista Realtek/Toshiba/Microsoft "High definition Audio Device" driver is updated to include the Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix (under "recording devices"), so that programs that rely on it are broken. SoundTap can do on Vista means that it is not a hardware limitation.

    PS new Vista sound effects as Loudness equalization, Room Correction, Bass Management and Virtual Surround are already supported in the current drivers Vista (the driver from Realtek v1.52 and that by default by Microsoft) in Satellite A100-998.

    First of all, I must say that I haven't noticed these issues after the installation of Vista. I installed it on the A100 and everything went correctly

  • Can not resize the partition on the Satellite A100-998

    Hello
    I am owner of toshiba satellite A100-998 with 200 GB hard drive. By default there is only 1 partition on the HARD drive when I try to resize this partition and create another 8 partition magic shows me error that it cannot write to the boot sector and it fails. I didn't install any software on this computer and it has the latest version of the bios.

    Ranish partition Manager displays the same error.
    I don't know what the problem is because I've done similar operations on multiple computers with all the problems.

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions

    Hello

    I also use the magic of 8 Partitions for creating and management of simple partitions on the HARD disk.
    But I wonder about the size of your HARD drive. As I know the Partitions Magic 8 does not support 200 GB HARD drive. I didn t to test but the partitions on the manufacturing site manual says it does not support.

    However, sometimes, I had similar problems with my 80 GB HARD drive. The simple solution was to defragment single partitions.

    I put t know if it will help you because of you HARD drive size, but you can try it.

  • Satellite A100-998: Touchpad acts crazy

    Hello

    I am now the proud owner of a Satellite A100-998, with Intel Dual-Core, 2 GB of RAM, pregnant harman/kardon and so on.
    Is a beautiful piece. However, would be much nicer if I had no problem from touchpad:

    Do you want to use the scroll bar on the right, in any application (Word, Excel, Mozilla, no matter), or you want to close the window by clicking the X. But then your system seems to "think" that you are working on the underlying window and it takes your window away and simply shows the underlying window. As if she had the wrong coordinates pointer/Mouse/touchpad! I tried everything with the two parameters dozend touchpad software allows, but does not. No matter what the setting.

    The distributor said that I would ask Toshiba, that he has never heard such odd performances.
    A Toshiba engineer looking in this forum and answer these questions?
    Or does anyone know what to do about it?

    David

    Sorry, but I think I have to disappoint you. To my knowledge there is no Toshiba technicians or engineers. This is a user forum.

    However, I would like to help you, but I've also never heard these dysfunctions of touchpad.
    This problem also happens when you use an external USB mouse?

    I don't know who exactly touchpad software you use, but on my laptop I can configure the easy touchpad properties.
    Please check if you did not select the tap again and hold to drag the option. Maybe it has a bad influence on the device.

    In addition, you can configure different tab area. Each tab on the touchpad can perform different actions. So check it!

    Also check the movement of the pointer and other like edge options request. There must be parameters that cause strange movements

  • Satellite A100-998: speakers make noise when it is on current alternative

    Hello, I have a
    Satellite A100-998
    Part number: PSAA9E-0PP044EN

    My speakers make a horrible noise slope high when the laptop is plugged into AC power, but not on battery power. It happens through my integrated sound card, my soundblaster card external as well as the headphones on both ports, and they have all the latest drivers anyway, so the problem is elsewhere. Noise appears on the windows out vague, i.e. all inhibition does not, nothing 'generates' sound as a program that runs in the background.

    Can anyone help? Here is a link to the noise, I recorded with helmet attached to the microphone port, it's quite quiet, you may increase your speakers to hear it. Link: [http://rapidshare.com/files/114859161/noise.mp3.html]

    I guess it's a kind of interference, but I'm a software guy, I don't know about these sorts of things.

    Thank you
    Andy

    I doubt that the software could cause this kind of thing, looks like it could be a problem of ground or a component of the motherboard.

    I take it to a service center and get them at a glance.

  • Low noise Satellite A100-998

    Hello

    I bought a satellite A100-998 with Harman/Kardon speakers, even if the computer laptop screen at the store had a remarkably high compared to other brands, the machine I bought product a very low sound, although the dial at the front is turned to the maximum & all software orders are set to high? A

    NY suggestions? We advised me to update the audio driver, would this help (but why a laptop bought a few days ago would need to update its drivers?) and I need to update the Bios also, pls help as the low noise is upsetting to me much (not what I expected at all).

    Hello

    I think that the volume on the laptops is a matter of opinion.
    It is really not easy to tell if it s a bad or normal setting.
    Why do you offer that the sound is low? Compare you the sound properties with other laptops?

    Anyway, perhaps you're using really bad setting and only a switching of some controls would increase the sound quality.
    AFAIK the Realtek HD Sound Effect Manager has been installed on this laptop. You should find it in the control panel.

    Here, you can try to change some settings. Wave volume, volume of the CD, everything is possible.

    Under the memory, you will see that this notebook can handle with 8 GB max. On the second page check the upgrade memory. You will find the part number compatible 4 GB of RAM.

  • Satellite A100 - 003 PSAARE - information necessary Ram upgrade

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A100-003 (PSAARE) with 32-bit Vista installed and 2 GB of RAM (1024 + 1024 DDR2 533 MHz).
    I was wondering if it is possible to change the 1 RAM (1024MB) with this RAM: 2 GB DDR2 667 MHz?
    Support page says that this laptop supports up to 4 GB of RAM total.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    Generally this information in the user manual it s always mentioned in the manual that is preinstalled on your laptop.

    I downloaded the manual on the Toshiba page and found this:
    Slots _Memory: _
    + PC4200 256 MB or 512 MB or 1024 MB modules of memory can be installed in the locations of two memory for a max memory 2048 MB system. +

    _Memory expansion; _
    Only the memory modules with the number of following parts can be installed:
    256 MB PA338QU - 1 M 25
    512 MB PA3412U - 1 M 51
    1 GB-PA3411U-1M1G

    By the way; the 32 bit OS Vista won't recognize the 4 GB of RAM due to the limitation of the 32-bit operating system. The 32-bit OS can handle max 3.2 GB.

  • Satellite A100-159: expansion of memory RAM problem

    Hello

    I have a satellite A100-159. I want to increase the RAM to 2 GB. I checked the type of memory that is supported by the laptop and ordered two modules PC4200 DDR2 SO-DIMM 1 GB of the brand 'Buffalo '. I have after installing the memory and the laptop starts fine (and detects the 2 GB of RAM). However, Windows XP always freezes after login. I reinstalled the original modules and everything works well again.

    After that, I installed both modules in other non-Toshiba laptop and here they work perfectly. I know that Toshiba recommends using some partnumbers, but if the modules work fine in another laptop computer why it does not work in the A100?

    Recommended modules are almost two times more expensive. If Toshiba wants to make money by forcing people to buy expensive pieces, I will never buy a Toshiba again...

    Secondly, is it possible to use DDR2 SO - DIMM 667 modules (these are less expensive than 533 modules)?

    Kind regards
    Martijn

    Hello

    > is it possible to use DDR2 SO - DIMM 667 modules (these are less expensive than 533 modules)

    Yes, it should be possible to use the modules of 667 MHz, but generally, they should be more expensive than 533 MHz modules. Of course, modules WITHOUT name are always less expensive than brand Kingston or Toshiba memory modules.

    > Recommended modules are almost two times more expensive. If Toshiba wants to make money by forcing
    > people to buy expensive pieces I will never buy a Toshiba again.

    Don t think that they will be forcing anyone to buy expensive parts. but as already said, the brand modules cost more expensive form of low quality modules. The performance of these modules is poor. If you want you can read some computer magazines and find the tests.
    They compare the performance of simple modules. So for me it makes no sense to buy a module without name of 667 MHz because for most a brand module 533 MHz is faster and better as module 667 MHz without a name.

    I use Kingston modules in my laptop satellite and I'm happy.
    Found this site with compatible memory modules for your laptop:
