• Satellite Pro 4300 - memory upgrade problem

  Hello

  I know that the issue has been already discussed several times, but it seems that none of the solutions or suggestions posted earlier apply to my situation.
  I recently bought an old Toshiba Satellite Pro 4300. The laptop has a slot filled memory of 64 MB module of the system's total memory was 128 MB.
  Because in my opinion, the system has worked to slow down, I decided to buy an additional memory module. I bought 128 MB - module TOSHIBA PA3005U k and placed in the slot B

  I was very surprised when I found that, after the upgrade, Windows showed that the total memory is 192 MB.
  When I put the 128 MB in the slot module is and the old module of 64 MB in the slot B - the surprise was even bigger, given that windows showed only 128 MB.

  I first thought that the slot B is defective, but in this case, it would be impossible to get in the first place the 192 MB. Then I thought that the new module of memory was either defective or it was 64 MB instead of 128 MB, but this option is also likely, according to my observations. Furthermore, I checked with EVEREST software system and it recognizes the new module as 128 MB module, but does not see the old 64 MB module.

  The situation is quite strange. Does anyone has an idea whay happens?

  Kind regards

  Sebastian

  To my knowledge, the 4300 Satellite Pro can be upgraded to 320 MB max.

  64 MB module which was fitted with your laptop should not be removable.
  So in this slot ONLY this 64 MB module could work properly.

  I know it's strange but the computer world is sometimes strange ;) you know :D

• Satellite S1800-204: memory upgrade

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba Satellite S1800-204 memory which I just try to improve, two sticks of Kingston, 64 MB PC100 144pin SODIMM (like the one provided with the laptop) to two sticks of Crucial 256 MB PC100 144pin SODIMM. The laptop will post more, and even if the power light is on it will not start. The screen remains black. The manual of user leads me to believe that it is capable of supporting up to 512 MB and I can not find all the features that say the new memory should not be working.

  Can someone help to solve my problem or tell me where I have gone wrong? I hope we have not bombed just from all this money for nothing.

  Hello

  Yes. I also think that you should check if your modules are compatible.
  I found in the official document that this device supports these modules:

  PC100 256 MB (PA3069U - 1 M 25)
  PC100 128 MB (PA3005U)
  PC100 64 MB (PA3004U)

  As far as I know that you can upgrade this laptop up. 512 MB memory SDRAM (2x256MB).

• HP 21-2014: HP 21-2014 in a computer, Ram memory upgrade question

  Hello, I have a HP 21 2014 all in one computer. He now has 4 GB Ram memory and an AMD processor. I was wondering how it would be possible to increase the Ram up to 8 GB. Is there a certain number of model or brand of Ram do I need to buy? I looked a few things on Frys Electronics, but obviously I'm naïve. I really want to upgrade memory because I have some games which really lag on this computer, even if it is new, and I know it takes more may work properly. I wanted to see if someone can point me in the right direction. Price is not really a problem, I just want to know what would be a better job for this specfic HP model. Thank you!

  Hello

  Yes, you can upgrade to 16 GB:

• Need new BIOS for Satellite A30 - 404 to upgrade to a larger HARD drive

  I want to install a new (larger) disk on my Satellite A30-404.
  He says have Bios version 1.80.
  I probably need more recent (since it was purchased in 2003).

  Y at - it a newer version for this machine?

  Hello

  Latest BIOS version can be found on the European driver Toshiba page.
  Currently, the version of the BIOS 1.80 is available and published for the Satellite A30 PSA30E.

  By the way; a more recent BIOS will not help to use a bigger HDD!
  The point is that your laptop supports the Enhanced IDE (ATA-5).
  Since the ATA-5 interface supports the 28-bit LBA addresses you should be possible to use Max 128 GB OF HARD DRIVE. I think that this is the maximum size, which is possible.

• HP Pavilion 17 laptop-f113dx: Ram memory upgrade

  Although this would mean taking this laptop apart to do this, I want to know if the RAM memory is expandable for the HP Pavilion 17 laptop-f113dx.

  A site specific Web says it is expandable to 16 GB.  The vehicle currently has 4 GB of RAM and all I want to do is double that - go up to 8 GB.

  I wouldn't take this laptop out to see that it is not extensible.

  Can someone give me a heads-up on this update for this laptop?

  Thank you very much!!

  Hello

  Through 2, 3 page in this manual:
  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c04427554.PDF

  There are two slots for RAM, you can put two 8 GB of RAM of the same exact brand & plug as shown in the manual. Then max up to 16 GB is possible.

  Data sheet:
  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c04454103

  Go through page 104, 105 in the manual steps of replacement are not easy, and I would say you contact center of HP service in your region for assistance if you are under warranty as it will void the warranty for major disassembly can cause unexpected problems, if you're not used to it.

• Satellite Pro L10 Memory Upgrade

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro L10 Celeron M Processor 360 1.4 GHz / XP HE / 256 MB / 40 GB / 15TFT / DVD-CDRW / OneNote. I wanted to upgrade the RAM, and I noticed that in the manual it says:

  Before installing a new module memory 512 MB do not forget to remove already installed memory modules.

  Does that mean that I can not install a 512 MB module and more the 256 MB is already a total of 768 MB?

  Thanks for any advice,

  Luis

  Hi Luis,.

  The specifications of your laptop indicates that it can accept up to 1 024 MB of RAM. If you have 2 RAM slots, so you can use any combination of modules of RAM as long as you do not exceed the maximum quotes. Of course if you have only 1 RAM slt then you must remove the original 256 MB module before insert you new 512 MB a.

• Satellite A30 hard drive upgrade

  Hello

  I would like to know if there is a panel that is easy to open to upgrade the hard drive?

  If not, then how to open Notepad in order to improve memory?

  MUCHAS gracias...

  Hi Omar,.

  Your hard drive is in the DVD-ROM on the bottom of your A30. To access it, you need to remove the DVD-ROM first by unscrewing the screws marked F5 on the bottom of your device. The DVD-ROM will then slide toward the front of your A30.

  With the DVD - ROM removed the hard drive will be visible fixed by four screws Phillips. Remove these screws and gently slide the hard drive toward the front of the laptop to free the pins is connecting.

  To upgrade the memeory that you will need to remove the small cover on the bottom of the laptop (held in by two small screws. We then see the RAM modules. The details on how to remove/replace the in your online user manual.

  I realized that I bought a model that is only sold in Saudi Arabia. This is the model of Satellite M50-165. I want to improve the memory, I bought memory from EBAY who said it works in M50 sieries, but he did not.

  I read all the manuals in Toshiba, tried to contact by phone, they said that they do not have this model.

  in any case, I'd appreciate any help in that matter, as I am looking to upgrade the system to its full potential, I guess 2 Giga.

  This description of the model:

  you bought the bad RAM. You need DDR333/PC2700 memory for your machine (which is expandable to 2 GB). If you're lucky, then return/sell memory and buy a RAM with the specifications described above.

• Satellite 1800-814 memory upgrade

  I have a Satellite 1800 814 with 256 MB of RAM and have been looking for an upgrade of memory for a while. I used a critical technology for an upgrade of my old Packard Bell 6500 multimedia PC, but they could not help with my Satellite laptop.

  I have now found an upgrade to 512 MB at Offtek, who seems to have a good range of Toshiba of refoulement (2 x 256 MB modules). See the site:-

  http://www.offtek.co.UK/

  Their site States that the max memory for the 1800-814 is 512 MB.
  Anyone has any experience of Offtek updates before I shell out £131,16 Please? If I can count on the accuracy of their information and the reliability of their product?

  Kind regards

  Hello

  Looks like Offtek memory is right. And yes it's true 512 MB is the maximum that can use a Satellite 1800. But if your laptop is already 256 MB, you only need a 256 MB module.

  Good bye

• Satellite M40X-230 memory upgrade

  Upgrade memory

  I have a satellite M40X-230, most of the documents indicate that it is expandable up to 2 GB of RAM.
  On the underside there a memory expansion slot which will have a 1 GB SODIMM, giving me a total of 1.5 G bytes of RAM.

  Is it possible to add the other 500 MB. (I'm experimenting with Virtual Machines and data bases)

  In case anyone is interested!

  There is a module in memory of 500MByte located on top of the motherboard. Unfortunately this is mounted internally in the case.
  It is located below and slightly to the right of the center of the keyboard.
  However, the casting of the cover of the laptop cover electronics and so it is not accessible by simply removing the keyboard. the top cover should be thrown which also consists of removing the screen.

  Otherwise, the module is mounted in exactly the same type of socket than under the machine.

• Satellite Pro 4600, memory upgrade

  I have twice had problems trying to upgrade memory to my Satellite Pro 4600, so I decided to ask directly if Kingston KTC-SO133/256 MB is compatible with this machine?

  It's the SODIMM I'm about to try next, but I have to pay for it first.

  Problems were that the SODIMM modules is not compatible with the wonderful piece of memory or it won't work at all with Toshiba.

  Is there an availave list what type of bars of memory are compatible?

  Sorry, I can tell you that I use the Original from Toshiba 'PA3069U - 1 M 25' memory (its a KIT of MEMORY of 256 MB)

  works great!
