Satellite A200-10W recognize only 3 GB instead of 4 GB of RAM
2 years ago, I bought the laptop Toshiba A200-10w.
He had 1 GB of memory installed (at the time, the seller said that ram can be expandable to 4 GB).
Recently, I bought RAM 2x2gb modules.
When I installed the modules I had to update the update of the BIOS-Windows X, to recognize all the ram installed, but during POST only 3071 MB of RAM is checked (even though the main BIOS screen lists that 4096 Mb is installed).
Even if I use FreeBSD 64-bit operating system I can only access 3071 MB of RAM.
Is there a solution to this problem?
Hello
To access the full 4 GB of RAM as the three components; Operating system and BIOS of the Chipset must support 4 GB of RAM.
If one of these parts does not support the 4 GB of RAM then your laptop will not handle and will not recognize the full 4 GB of RAM.
Check your chipset and look into the details to the Intel page.
There, you can find an info if your chipset is capable of 4 GB.

Satellite A200-10W - where to find drivers for 64-bit Windows 7?
I have a laptop Satellite A200-10W. Now I have vista x 86 installed, but I want to switch to windows 7 64 bit, but I don't know where to find the drivers because on the Web site, I can't find these.
Can someone help me? How can I use sound card, network card, webcam and others if I don't have these drivers?
Hello!
I checked the page Toshiba, Satellite A200-10W belongs to the PSAECE series and so I was able to find only the Vista 64 bit drivers:

Hello
my laptop Satellite A200-10W, came with a Geforce 7300.
I know that the card has its 256 MB dedicated memory, but I don't know how to use shared memory.
In other how can words, I use the committed memory, as well as the memory shared of my cards.
Thank you.Hello
just for info: won´t you get more than 256 MB of RAM. The only graphics memory is your dedicated, I Don t know what you mean with that shared, in my view, there is no available shared mem.

Satellite A200 - 10W PSAECE - BIOS need for Vista 64-bit
Hello
I'm having problems trying to update my BIOS under Vista 64-bit of the system. The plashnt.sys driver generates an error when loading.
On the update of the BIOS page I can't find no 64-bit BIOS update for my laptop Satellite A200-10W (PSAECE). Also I've seen most of the computers portable ETA is updates of BIOS of 2009 and my update to the newest BIOS comes from 2007 (version 1.80 for Windows Vista)!The reason why I'm trying to update my BIOS:
I have recently installed 4 GB of RAM on my laptop, the screen of the BIOS reports 4 GB but during POST, there are only 3! Vista reports also only 3 GB of physical memory total. I ran a series of landmarks and notes I got using 4 GB are well below the marks using only 2.
Memory modules have been tested on another laptop and none of these problems has occurred (another laptop of the manufacturer).So I really need a sollution to update my BIOS and prefferably a BIOS update of 2009 available for download.
On the other hand, I was looking for specifications of my laptop on the Toshiba site and I couldn't find my model on the current models, or models discotinued page. In 2007, when I bought the laptop, it was listed as new on the current page of models, so I expect at least to see it in the abandoned list.
Thank you for your time!
> 1. Why there is no updated BIOS newer than that of 2007 and
There is no update of the most recent BIOS as Toshiba didn t release new updates.
Why? Who knows maybe a new update is not necessary.> . Why my laptop is not listed in the discontinuous model (Satellite a200 - 10w psaece)
Why should it be included as a discontinued model? The A200 series is not very old... so I n t think that this series could be abandoned -
Is the Satellite A200-10W supports a PCMCIA slot II type
I want to know if the side slot on the satellite A-200-10w is a PCMCIA type II port and if not, adapters external usb for the same thing?
Hello Hari
Satellite A200-10W does not support PCMCIA location.
The A200 supports only the Express Card location that is placed on the left side for laptop.> I get external USB for the same (PCMCIA) adapters
Don t think so. I didn't see any USB key that would allow any PCMCIA interface.
But I rally don't know why you want to use a PCMCIA card if the Express card slot is available.
Using cards designed for Express card slot ;) -

Satellite A200-10W: I lost dual-mode Touchpad after Windows update
I got a satellite A200-10W. The touchpad worked well at the beginning. Then, an update of windows has been installed and I lost dual mode on my touchpad.
It is for me a normal function as a touchpad, but the mode button does not work. It lights, it do give me the button options, volume control does not work it did not scroll even in normal mode either.
I reinstalled the drivers both synaptics and alps, but nothing helped.How can I ever use dual-mode again?
Thanks for any help!
Hello
Very strange I didn't noticed any problem with the touchpad after the windows update.
I have updated my windows and then lost the sound. After restarting again I ran the update and the Øresund backBut if you, it seems that the MS updates could be a bad influence on the functions of touchpad.
Have you chosen the touchpad drivers just for the PSAECE series?
The Synaptics Touch Pad driver to set the properties and the touch pad control functions.
And the Alps Electric Touch Pad Driver allows you to set the properties and functions of mouse control.Perhaps you need to configure the settings again after the new installation of drivers touchpad? :|
But have you tried to update to Windows Vista again? Sometimes, you have to restart the laptop to get all the necessary updates that will fix the problems.
In a value of the case, recover the laptop and does not perform the updates of windows
