• Satellite A30: Replacement of RAM and HARD disk

  I am about to replace the HARD drive in my Satellite A30 with a 100 GB one and update the RAM in both slots 1 & 2. Can someone give me a step by step guide to do this?
  Also to clean the mouse buttons leave because they no longer work correctly

  Thank you very much

  Hi Andy,.

  To replace the hard drive, you need to remove the F5 screw on the bottom of the laptop. This will allow the optical drive to slide toward the front of the laptop so that you can get on the hard drive.

  Remove the four screws (2 on each side) that hold the hard disk, and then gently slide forward to disconnect its multi connector.

  Remove the two metal (one on each side) of the old drive brackets and attach them to the new drive then carefully replace the new drive and drag it to the back of the laptop (be careful not to bend the pins).

  Finally replace the optical drive and fix it with the screw (F5).

  Remove the RAM modules is described in the manual of the A30 user but briefly it is to remove the screws holding the access plate on the bottom of the laptop, and then releasing the fasteners securing spring-loaded modules RAM, so that they can be angled to allow them to be removed from the location of connectors. The new modules can be inserted (they won't be back in a sense) and pushed into place until the fixing pins 'click '. It is very important that you take adequate and anti-static precautions before accessing RAM modules as they can easily be 'flashed' by a discharge of static electricity.

• Satellite A200 - 10 X: how to HARD drive partitioning

  Hi there guys!

  I have a pro with my satellite A200 - 10 X, there is only one volume of HARD drive and I want to do both... and everytime I use the product recovery CD, it formats the HARD drive... but I don't know how to partition the drive HARD two get volume two spaces...

  and what is worse than when I continue to do it that he eats again and again the free space of HARD drive... so how can I partition the HARD drive and recover space 200 GB the computer initially?

  I appreciate your help...
  thanx

  Hello

  If you use the Vista operating system, you can partition the HARD drive running Vista.
  Just go to disk management. You can find in the control panel-> tools of Government (or something like that).

  In disk management, you can shrink the first partition C.
  On the free space of HARD drive, you will be able to create a new partition.
  I think you should see this option if you right-click on the partition.

  This procedure is very simple and I already did on my Vista computer.

  Good luck

• Satellite A350 - Question about RAM and Vista 32 bit - 64 bit

  I bought a Satellite A350 Tiger Direct. He moved with Windows Vista 32 bit.
  It is capable in my view up to 8 GB of Ram. Vista 32 bit does support 3.

  All reviews on this laptop online say that it came with 64-bit and 400 GB of memory.
  Mine came with only 230 GB of memory and 32 bit vista. I ran Belarc advisor, and he tells me that my computer is 64-bit ready.

  Is this true? Why is - this me came not with Vista 64 bit?
  I want to upgrade my ram but with 32 bits, which is not possible and according to Microsoft you cannot update 32-bit to 64-bit.
  So should I buy Vista 64-bit upgrade? (for around 300 euros!). Is this in any way about this?

  What are my options? I want 4 GB of Ram or more really bad...

  What Satellite A350 do you have exactly?

  AFAIK the most recent series of Toshiba laptop pre-installed a dual operating system;
  In this case, you can choose between Vista 32-bit or 64-bit.

  To obtain the 64-bit, you will need to restart the laptop and have to press F8.
  Here you must choose the option to fix my computer. Then select Toshiba HDD recovery and finally, you should see the option which would be you can toggle between the 32 and 64 bit.

  Usually the Vista 32 bit supports 3.2 GB RAM.
  Only the 64-bit Vista will be able to recognize 4 GB and more.

• Satellite A200-1GH, remove the additional HARD disk cover

  Hello

  I bought a new HARD drive and I want to put it in place of additional hard drive, but I can't remove the cover... :-(... I was remove two screws and nothing...
  Can you help me please?

  Respect...

  Stand by. If I understand you right, you want to add the second HARD drive. Am I right about that?
  At first, I must say that this is not possible due to lack of connectors. In any case you can check only. Remove the two screws and remove the cover plastic. I know, it cannot be removed easily. Remove it in the middle and remove the side.

• Satellite A50: Question about type RAM and HARD drive

  Anyone out there who would try to open their laptop Toshiba Satellite A50, what type of RAM and hard disk of brand you all have inside?
  All the portable toshiba comes with Toshiba RAM and hard drive?

  Hello

  As far as I know the Satellite A50 uses DDR PC2700 modules. These modules must be compatible:
  PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
  PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
  1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

  There are different models of Satellite A50, but I think that there should be a drive HARD IDE(ATA-6) 60 GB 4200 RPM with 8 MB buffer size.

  Here is all the information I found.

• Satellite L70-A-139 - guaranteed zero when removing the cover for the RAM and HARD drive

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite L70-A-139 youcef.
  And at the back of the laptop, there is a cover that is fixed with a screw.

  Wil I void the warranty when I unscrew and take a look?

  No, the mandate must still be valid.
  There is a removable cover at the bottom of the unit as shown here:

• A1103 new Ram and HARD drive will not start

  Hello.

  I have a Mac mini A1103. When I got there the folder flashing with question mark. I got a macbook earlier where this problem was solved by installing a new hard drive. so I ordered a new 160 GB IDE 2.5 "5400 RPM and 1 GB Corsair Valueselect DDR1 333 MHz hoping that this will help me get the mini running and preforming a little better with 512 MB of Ram.

  When I boot the mini after swapping ram and hard drive I always see the same flashing folder. I can reset the NVRAM Boot, enter diskmode target? (I think) and the Boot Manager.

  When I enter the Boot Manager I can see the following screen

  

  a few times I get to this screen for Open Firmware screen where I can use certain commands such as vram-reset reset-all rebot and so, but sometimes I'm just stuck on this screen.

  Anyone have any suggestions on what is wrong and what I can try next? I do not have the boot original dvd but I have a usb bootable with IOS 10.6 and a dvd with IOS 10.6 (not original) but I can't get botting from any of the devices.

  A Mac Mini A1103 has a G4 Power PC processor and cannot be greater than 10.5.8. Superior OSX versions require an Intel processor.

  In this statement "a usb bootable with IOS 10.6 and a dvd with IOS 10.6 (not original)" I think you mean OSX, not of iOS. You must obtain a copy of the original installation disc which was 10.3 or 10.4 or disk to upgrade to 10.4 or 10.5 full retail. Coverall A1103 all three 2005 models of the Mac Mini G4.

  You cannot use a grey disc unless it was delivered with your specific Mac.  Native gray disc with Macs and can not e used on the other model of disc.

  You can probably call Apple and order a copy of the original disks

• 23 - f270: RAM and hard drive one device?

  Hello

  I had recently a hard drive has failed/bad in my computer that was just out of warranty, so I took my computer to a computer repair man who said he could replace the old/bad disk with a new one.  This man didn't really hold up to the end of his contract, and now I find myself in a dispute with him as he always has my HP PC and he gave me a lesser Dell as if to replace.  Now, I contacted the office busniness better for resolving this dispute.  But it is now trying to claim that he gave me the HP drive hard and RAM unit.  This man gave me was a rectangular metal box telling me that it was the old bad hard drive.  So what I need to know is are the hard drive and RAM in this a model room?  I need proof that if the RAM is not present, he was the one who pulled it and sold it.  They only gave me one of the components of the computer, and I would like to know if the RAM and hard drive are one or two pieces of sepearte?

  Thank you

  Hello

  RAM and hard drive (HDD) are two different things. Your machine has 6 GB of RAM, which means it has 2 sticks, and 1 TB of HDD (1 unit). His record:

• Satellite C660 - compatibility between motherboard and hard drive internal

  Hi, I have a problem with the compatibility between the internal (1 terabyte) hard drive and installing windows 7 pro.
  I broke my old internal hard drive (320 GB) and I bought the new hd (1 tb), but during the installation it says that w7 cannot be installed on this new hard drive.

  Can my pc motherboard (serial number: 3B071014k) support the new hard drive (serial number: wd10jpvx)?
  and if the answer is 'yes', how can I make it work?

  First of all the question has nothing to do with the motherboard and HARD drive compatibility.
  If the HARD drive is visible in the BIOS (first page), the HARD drive is supported by the BIOS and HARD disk controller.
  In the case where the drive HARD isn't recognized, you will need to replace this HARD drive with another. I guess the smaller size of the 2.5 SATA HDD THAT would be taken in charge (500 GB)

  However, in case the HARD disk is visible in the BIOS, you should be able to install Windows 7.
  Before starting the installation, you must format the HARD drive and should create the system partition.
  For this procedure, I recommend to use some tools such as partitions for example: GParted
  GParted is a freeware Linux tool.
  You can create a bootable USB key in order to start the device using GParted:
  http://gparted.sourceforge.NET/LiveCD.php

  Then, you should be able to format the HARD disk and create partitions.

• Satellite A200 psaf6a - what RAM do need me?

  Hey

  simply looking at upgrading my ram on my laptop.
  I looked around and I decided to put in another 2 GB on one because of the 32-bit operating system

  So what I want to know it the right choice, what type, I need and where can I find it?
  Is it difficult to do?

  I'm not a pro but I thought that it might be a guide?
  Could someone put me on any help would be good.

  Thanks heaps

  > I'm not a pro but I thought that it might be a guide?
  > Could someone put me on any help would be good.

  I remember that Toshiba manuals contain line very nice guide and photo on RAM upgrade.
  Download one of the Satellite A200 series user manual and check the instruction.
  The manual can be downloaded from the homepage of the European support of Toshiba.

  PS: in most cases, the RAM slots are placed at the bottom of the unit. The slot is secured by a screw and if you remove so you should be able to access slots.

  See you soon

• SL 410 Upgrade ram and hard drive

  Hi all

  I have been using the 410-2842-rk1 model Lenovo thinkpad SL for a year and a half.

  No problems until now

  I want to upgrade the RAM and hard drive of this machine.

  At the time of purchase, I had seen that I could improve up to 1 TB of hard drive.

  Please guide me if I can or not.

  About the RAm too, I need assistance (maximum limit I can update)

  Thanks in advance...

  You can switch to a 1 TB HDD providing it will fit physically. They are more hard are 9.5 mm thick but some hard drives of 1 TB are 12.5 mm thick. If you get a 9.5 mm HARD drive then it will work. Readers of 12.5 mm is too thick to fit.

  Regarding the RAM, you can install up to 8 GB of RAM, which is 2 x 4 GB.

• I upgraded my card mother cpu ram and hard drive. I reinstalled windows xp home edition has got all of the updates. After 9 latest updates download and installtion went well, I restarted the computer, I get a blue screen and the computer restarts

  I upgraded my card mother cpu ram and hard drive. I reinstalled windows xp home edition has got all of the updates. After 9 latest updates download and installtion was going well until I rebooted the computer and go to page window showing all the icons that I get a blue screen and the computer restarts its self and does not stop. How can this be corrected?

  Hi KevinRy,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

  Unplug all external devices.

  Try to start in safe mode. If you can start in safe mode, and then do a system restore to restore the computer to an earlier point in time.

  Change the recovery settings to disable automatic reboot, if you are able to boot up to the desktop computer:

  1.	Right-click my computerand then click Properties.
  2.	Click the Advanced tab.
  3.	Under Startup and recovery, click settings to open the Startup and recovery dialog box.
  4.	Clear the automatically restart check box, and then click OK many times necessary.
  5.	Restart your computer so that the settings take effect.

  Now, when you are going to close and a fatal error occurs, you will see at least and it won't cause an automatic restart.

  Please reply back with the error message you get because it helps us to resolve the error.

• Update of RAM and hard drive for Compaq 6710 b

  Hey guys,.

  I had Compaq 6710 b and I'll update my Ram and HARD drive on it with these (link here)

  On the system view, it says memory: 1.99 Gb and the Crucial site gives these details:

  Maximum memory: 4 GB
  Slots: 2

  But I looked under the hood of the ram and only thing I saw was a simple location with stick of 1 GB (below Sorry for bad quality and light photos)

  http://i.imgur.com/F0MKO.jpg

  So then it just a single cell phone location? And I can buy a 1 x 4 GB DDR2 ram stick?
