Satellite A110-174 and 4 GB of RAM

Hello

today I buyed 2 x 2 GB RAM Adata for my A110-174.
When I turn on my pc the BIOS count only 3 GB.
What's wrong?

Please help me...

Thank you

*@enzo82*
Maybe you need to update the BIOS with the latest version to get the full support of 4 GB.
By the way; 32-bit Windows will see only 3, 2 GB due to the limitation of the 32-bit

*@farkast*
> Vista can say that 4 GB is installed, but can use only 3 GB.
Why would you say that Vista can use only 3 GB of RAM if 4 GB of RAM are recognized?
Have you installed SP1?

  • Satellite A110-174 - RAM upgrade questions

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A110-174

    I want to buy a RAM module (it uses ddr2 ram, 533 MHz), but it seems impossible, in view of their.
    I can only find the frequencies of 800 or higher.

    I can use them or they give me problems / incompatibilities?

    Can I mount 1 module or to buy 2 modules?

    The motherboard will read up to 4 GB or need a Bios Update?

    Thank you

    Satellite A110-174 can be upgraded up to 4 GB of RAM.

    In order to use a feature of dual channel RAM, two modules must be used.
    This means module of RAM 2 GB in each slot.

    The 4 GB RAM limit is caused by Mobile Intel 945 GM Express chipset
    http://Ark.Intel.com/de/products/27857 as well as the Intel Core CPU T1350 http://ark.intel.com/de/products/27243
    The processor supports the 533 Mhz FSB (front side bus) and the RAM modules will run max at 533 Mhz.

    Thus, you should use the DDR2-533 modules

    But sometimes, you should be able to use the DDR2 - 667 Mhz modules. In this case the 667 Mhz speed module will be clocked at 533 Mhz

  • Satellite A110 keyboard and battery - if it was in / work with A100?

    Hello, thank you for taking the time to read my post. I have a toshiba satellite a100 laptop, the keyboard is damaged and the battery no longer works. I just found access to a toshiba satellite a110, which is not as high in the specs, so I wonder...

    -Keyboard toshiba satellite a110 works and adapt if it is placed in the a100?

    -Toshiba satellite a110 battery works and adapt if it is placed in the a100?

    If someone could tell me that I would be very happy.

    Thanks again for your time

    Hello

    I think the keyboard could be compatible, but I doubt the battery designed for Sat A110 would be compatible with the model A100.

    As far as I know the Satellite A100 supports the 9 cell, 6000mAh
    PA3478U-1BRS or 12 PA3400U-1BRS battery and the A110 supports PA3457U-1BRS Battery Pack Li-ion (4300mAh, 8 cells)

  • Satellite A110-115 and RAM update

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A110-115 with 2x512Mb RAM installed. I removed the and installed 2x1GB PC2-5300 667 Mhz (Kingston KVR667D2S5 / 1 G), but when the PC boots it go to BSOD and begins to start again.

    I tried with one only new memory cards, but with the same results. I know that the old RAM PC2-4200 533 Mhz but I think it should work with 667 Mhz as well?

    Anyone who knows what's the problem here?

    It's nice that you believe this, but the fact is that you must use compatible modules.
    Use maximum 2 GB of RAM I recommend you to use compatible DDR2 400/533 module 1 GB (PA3411U-1M1G).

  • Is it possible to update the BIOS for the Satellite A110 (PSAB0) and Windows7?

    Hi all

    I recently installed Windows 7 on Toshiba Satellite A110 (PSAB0).
    The version of the system BIOS is v1.30
    I want to Flash the BIOS for you last version v2.0.
    This version is released in January 2009, before the introduction of Windows 7.

    There are two versions of the BIOS download, one "for Vista only' and one 'OS independent.
    I think I have to go to the operating system independent.
    Link: [update BIOS | http://www.toshiba.nl/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EN&selCategory = 8 & selFamily = 192 & selSeries = 236 & selProduct = 661 & STAS hortMod = 478 & language = 1 = 12 & selOS & selType = 4 & yearupload = & monthupload = & dayupload = & we eDate = null & mode = allMachines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = 24 & selectedLanguage = 12 & type = 4 & page = 1 & ID = 66230 & DISO =-1 & driverLanguage = 42]

    Independent of the OS has warning: + "this Bios is NOT compatible for notebook computers equipped with Windows Vista!" + "

    So here's my question: this BIOS version is compatible with Windows 7?

    Thank you very much!!

    AJ.

    Hello

    I think that this BIOS (v2.0) is not released for Windows 7 and that it has also not been tested with Windows 7. This BIOS has published 21.01.2009 and Windows 7 was released on July 22, 2009. However, on the other hand it s not mentioned that this BIOS is not compatible with Win 7.

    But the fact is that only Windows 7 doesn't is NOT supported on this laptop.

    Windows 7 drivers are not out on Sat A110, but this does not mean that you couldn't install Win 7 on this device. Of course, you can install the Win 7 system, but Toshiba does not provide any Win 7 software for this series.

    Back to BIOS update:
    In your case I would try not to update the BIOS if the laptop works properly.
    Why? Because the update of the BIOS is still a technique sensitive and you could damage it the motherboard if something goes wrong during the update of the BIOS.

    I found the information that your device can handle with 1 024 MB maximum unit has two memory slots, and I think that 2 x 512 MB recommended. This device has been tested with PC2100 512 MB (PA3164U - 1 M 51) module memory.

  • Satellite P100-324 and 4 GB of RAM

    I just installed 4 GB of RAM in my notebook (P100-324). Although on the Toshiba site, on the product page of my computer laptop, is said that this model supports 4 GB of RAM, it detects only 3 GB (3070MB). In the BIOS and Windows (Vista 64-bit) it's the same thing...
    Is a solution for this?

    PS: of course, the two RAM modules are fully functional - checked in the same round, one. Both were detected as 2 GB RAM modules.
    BIOS is upgraded to the latest version.

    Now, how can everyone I solve this?

    Best regards

    PS

    I have 5.20 BIOS.

    Do you use the preinstalled Toshiba operating system.
    Toshiba laptops are pre-installed and shipped with the 32 bit OS. early 32-bit XP and now Vista 32 bit.

    According to information from Microsoft and Toshiba the * BIOS * and the operating system reports about 3 GB due to the limitation of the 32-bit system.

  • Satellite A110-180 - fan starts but stops after a few seconds

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A110-180 and when I turn on the computer, the fan turns on but it stops in a few seconds and starts again in a while and stops again and starts... Then the laptop gets heat quickly.

    I bought the laptop about 5 years ago, so I think the problem is the fan or the circuit that controls the fan. Can someone who has had the same problem make sure that the fan is the problem?

    The fan part number is ATZHG000500. Does anyone know if a fan with P/N ATZHG000100 is compatible with my laptop, or if I can use another fan?

    Thanks for your help,

    Hey Wiley,

    First of all it of normal that the fan starts and after a few seconds, or 1 minute stops. Depending on the programs you run again the departure of fan after a few seconds or minutes. So, theoretically, it of normal what is happening.

    But if your laptop is almost 5 years old, you should try to clean. So I can recommend jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans. It is very cheap but very useful.
    Check it!

    In addition, I think that the thermal paste should be renewed a technicians authorized laptop can help you and answer if the other fan part number fits in your laptop. :)

  • Satellite A110-178 - updated from XP to Windows 7

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A110-178 and I would improve my OS from Windows XP to Windows 7.
    I've never installed new drivers or a new BIOS on my laptop, so I guess that many of them are outdated.

    What's the smartest thing?
    Update drivers and/or BIOS before upgrading to Windows 7? Or install Windows 7 and install the necessary drivers later?

    In the event that the BIOS should be updated: as there is no BIOS update available for Windows 7, what version of BIOS is the right one to pick?

    Thanks for the info!

    Kind regards
    Oliver

    Hi Oliver,.

    First of all an upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7 isn't possible of t. This means you need to do a new clean install and after that, you can install all drivers.

    An upgrade to Windows 7 is possible in Vista but not XP.

    The update of the BIOS is normally not necessary. This update should be carried out only if it of really necessary.

    The name of the BIOS: Ver 1.00 PARTTBL.

    My advice to you is: do not change anything.
    If you have problems to run Win7 on this old machine, I think that you shouldn't change anything. I think that the BIOS update will bring benefits, so there is no reason to change anything.
