• Satellite A300-1QP - RAM upgrade question

  Hello world

  After a few years, I decided to spend the money to upgrade the RAM.
  Now, I'm pretty stuck to understand what to do.

  I always knew that my laptop can be upgraded to 8 GB.
  I also have many references for this information:

  -model: Satellite A300-1 q PSAGCE-07000QIT
  (http://www.toshiba.it/discontinued-products/satellite-a300-1qp/)

  I checked physically slots: there are currently two slots of 2 GB each.
  As long as no expert, I thought that the the more logical way to upgrade such a configuration is to buy the other two chips of 4 GB each to reach the 8GB.

  However, it appears this combination didn't is not possible because I don't find not (I checked the site of Kingston and the Amazon). The upgrade of RAM I want to achieve is:
  -DDR2
  -800 Mhz
  -8 GB

  If this can be useful, I note all the data on the other two RAM modules:
  2GB 2Rx8 PC2-64005-666-12-Z3
  800 Mhz DDR2-SDRAM

  Can someone help me understand what to do to upgrade the RAM 8 GB?

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  The laptop was equipped with the Intel GM45 Express chipset and the Intel ARK page this Chipset Mobile Intel GM45 Express is capable of dealing with the 8 GB of RAM
  The chipset seems to support 667 MHz / 800 MHz/1066 modules MHz

  If you want to increase the RAM up to 8 GB of RAM, the best option would be the use of 2 x SO-DIMM 4 GB (DDR2 800 Mhz) modules
  The present modules must be removed and replaced with two modules of 4 GB.

  Usually, you can use modules of different brand but modules good markets can cause a lot of problem different and strange. So I recommend you to buy good quality like Kingston, Toshiba, modules etc.

• Satellite A300/M00 - RAM limit

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A300/M00 running Windows Vista Edition Home Premium x 64 with 2 GB of RAM.
  I want to upgrade to 4 GB of RAM but also downgrade to the x 86 architecture.

  My computer everything is full x 64 compatible, including the CPU and GPU but I know x 86 address space stop at 4096 mb with the GPU, BIOS ROM and other material PCI-e use the address space, before the RAM is used by leaving about 3 GB of RAM remaining.

  My computer will use always the 4 GB of RAM, I will install in my computer using EAP to affect the whole of the batch, for example.

  Thanks in advance,

  Matthew Gill.

  If you want to use full 4 GB of RAM then you should first find out if it is possible to upgrade the laptop with 4 GB of RAM.
  I mean that you should check your chipset if it supports 4 GB RAM capacity.
  If you are using the Intel mobile chipset then you should find the details on the Intel page!

  The main problem is that your 32 bit OS will recognize not the 4 GB of RAM. Only 3.2 GB due to the limitation of the 32 bit OS. But I think that you already knew about this problem from Microsoft.

• Satellite A300 - a RAM module will not work

  Hello guys,.

  6-8 months ago, I had a terrible accident with my laptop, I spilled:(coffe là-dessus.) Initially it has worked very well, but after a few days I just couldn't start it. When I pressed the power button, 'satellite' logo turned on, I could hear the fan but the HARD drive would not start. Tryied to clean and finally he started to :)

  Then from time to time (each is approximately 40 days) it does not start and what I've found, is that the RAM slot near the motherboard has a problem. When I remove the RAM from the slot, it works very well (but with 2 GB instead of 3 GB). A few days later, I put the second RAM and reworked for the next 40 days. Even in this way, I was satisfied after what had happened (the accident of coffee).

  The problem is that the same thing happened about 1 month ago but still every time I insert the second RAM I get the black screen, fan works and nothing more (with 1 memory it still works). Is it possible that the slot 2 is now dead, after 6 months of a semi-travail condition? Do you know how to clean it? or do something else?

  I changed the 2 RAM in both slots and I'm sure that the work of two Ram.

  Thank you and I would appreciate your help as I am a student and I use a lot of Matlab (it takes forever with only 2 GB of RAM)

  Hi creative1,.

  I think that it s not easy to say which is the main reason for this problem. Theoretically, it could be caused by the coffee that you reversed but it could also be another reason. In my view, that such a precise diagnosis can be done from an authorized service provider.

  The memory modules that you are using? Two of the ASP and pre-tested modules?

  Modules of RAM, you can test with special software of diagnosis than Memtest86. If the RAM modules are faulty, Memtest86 should acknowledge mistakes. It would be interesting to try.

  In the worst cases, the second location of memory is faulty. If the bars of memory work in the first place it seems to be the case :(

• Satellite A300 - 1 MM: RAM, disk, CPU upgrade

  Hello from Greece,

  I have toshiba satellite A300 - 1 MM a moment when you have completed the education that I won t to upgrade my laptop.
  For this movement I change ram, CPU and hard drive.
  But I do not know I f the system will recognize.

  _Below quote you the characteristics I want change_

  Fisrt of T3200 (1 MB of cache, 2.00 GHz, 533 MHz FSB) to
  Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile T9400 2.53 Ghz 1066 MHz 6 MB CPU
  (Deuxieme from 3 GB ram 8 GB
  Third ocz vertex 2
  Fourth one another graph one know not particular

  ? Thanks for your time

  To be clear: the upgrades of RAM and HARD drive are supported.
  Update CPU is not supported due to several reasons. Check the lease - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  You must understand that the hardware update on mobile machinery is quite limited due to the special construction and cooling system. I put t know to what kind of operations, you use your laptop, but my A300 works perfectly with Win7 32 bit and has enough power for daily activity and all multimedia operations.

  Upgrade of RAM maximum and be happy with it.

• RAM is not detected on my Satellite A300-1MC

  Hello

  I bought 4 GB of memory RAM upgrade Pro and it does not seem to detect it on my A300-1MC

  Here is the link for the RAM I got where it is evil, but I doubt it because the part number matches what I need:
  [http://www.memoryupgrade.pro/4gb-toshiba-satellite-a300-st4505-memory-1x-4gb-pa3670u-1m4g-pc2-6400-ddr2-800mhz-so-dimm-upgrade.html]

  Any ideas what I need to do?

  I have a 3 GB already installed and I took out the 1 GB and put 4 GB in its place - the BIOS didn't detect it as I know that 32-bit Windows usually use all the 6 GB.

  Thanks in advance for any help on this.
  If you need more simply make information let me know.

  Thank you
  Keith

  These problems are typical, when someone buys a product or incompatible products name.
  My advice is to return and buy compatible and tested modules of RAM. What you need is 4 GB DDR2 - 800 MHz module, with PA3670U-1M4G part number. It seems that the RAM you bought must be right, but... What is the brand of this module?

  Best brand for the Rams is KINGSTON.
  Check it out on KTT800D2 / 4G.

  Is RAM recognized if you use only this new RAM (slot A)?

  By the way: your Satellite can be improved up to 8 GB of RAM. Cool!!!

  Hello

  You simply take a look in the manual of the user that was preinstalled on your laptop.
  On my laptop, the operating manual has been preloaded with too, and I could find all the necessary information concerning the upgrade of RAM.

  The manual says you can use PC2-5300 modules if the A300 would support the RS690M/PM965/GM965 chipsets. But if the laptop is equipped with Intel GL960 chipset, so you can only use the PC2-4200 modules.

  Using the Intel GL960 chipset you can extend the RAM to 2 GB (2 x 1 GB RAM)

  See you soon

  Satellite A300-145 was equipped with a Mobile Intel GL960 Express Chipset. Or I m wrong?
  AFAIK this chipset provides only the 2 GB support

  Hello

  Have you installed the right graphics card driver?
  The Sat A300-1GN belongs to the PSAGCE series.
  I checked the page of the Toshiba driver and there are two pilots;
  I think that you should choose the ATI driver 8.477 display because this driver supports the Mobility Radeon HD 34xx/36xx chips.

  Other base system devices could be Bridge Media slot (for SD cards), touchpad, HDMI Control Manager.

  I didn't find these drivers 64-bit on Toshiba page. Maybe you should choose some drivers for Vista 32 bit

• I need to upgrade my Satellite A300

  I need to upgrade my laptop
  Product name = TOSHIBA SATELLITE A300 - 15 d

  My problem is that I fed up with windows vista I have on my laptop, I am looking for more than 6 months how to upgrade and still I have no useful way now I want to do is buy the upgrade for you because I want to continue on the original operating system which , but with the latest version please help and advice

  Hello

  In recent years, I also use A300 and have very good experiences with this machine. To be honest, I was not satisfied with the original version of Vista.

  I did follow the steps:
  -I ve upgraded RAM
  -I ve bought 265 GB SSDS
  - and last step was the installation of Windows 7.

  Trust me, machine works like a rocket. Windows 7 is fully supported and all the drivers, tools and utilities, you can find and download from Toshiba download page - http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  Any substance must be installed following the right installation order. If you need help or assistance please let me know.

• Re: Satellite A300-1 MB - processor overload

  I have a problem with the processor for some time now, first I thought the virus but the reinstallation of the Windows Vista Home premium I have the same problem.

  The processor overload even if I play a basic flash game. The same thing with Warcraft 3 and Fifa. Why? I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 - 1 MB T5800 2.0 GHz Centrino. 3 G of RAM Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family as a display driver

  Hello

  Have you installed a different display driver? I had a similar problem with overheating and the reason was the display driver. After that, I installed the latest version from the Toshiba site and everything worked properly again! :)

  In addition, I would recommend Notepad using compressed air cleaning spray. This could blow off the dust and it s not necessary to disassemble.

• Re: Satellite A300 cannot start, cannot use the factory recovery

  Hi all, I have a Satellite A300, which gave me problems in the past few weeks...

  I use Windows Vista

  There are about 2 months in the beginning of the laptop problem, it restarts itself automatically before enter in windows (while in the windows loading screen, no blue screen, screen just suddenly darkens and restarts itself), but it will get finally in windows successfully after a few loops

  but about 3 weeks ago, it just keeps looping and never get into windows, good news, it is that it can capture mode safe without problem

  I've done everything I can to try and save, as play with msconfig, drivers, removing the Rams etc, but not luck

  so, I save everything in safe mode and decided to restore the machine factory, but the problem is that when I boot up the computer by pressing 0 and enters the recovery screen, reboot loop will happen!

  any idea? or y at - it another way to restore to factory without touching the windows installed in my laptop? is it a hardware problem or software?

  I thought about the creation of recovery disks but my cd drive is not working properly, and I don't want to take the risk of buying an external cd drive not knowing not if the problem can be solved...

  Thank you very much!

  >.. .i don't want to take the risk of buying an external cd drive not knowing not if the problem can be solved...
  That of right, but you must understand that it is not easy on this virtual path to offer an accurate explanation and diagnosis for your problem.

  It is not easy to tell whether it is hardware or software related issue. best way to test is installation of recovery image. Recovery image is tested and if there are no some portable hardware problem should work fine. How to install the recovery image, which you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

  >.. .or is there another way to restore to factory without touching the windows installed in my laptop?
  Something like this is not possible. Windows that you use now needs to be reinstalled. I don't know why you the laptop restarts, but it's also the risk of recovery image installation. In case this recovery image installation will be interrupted, you will have two problems:
  -image of original recovery saved on your HARD drive will be unusable
  -you will not be able to start t

  In your situation the best is to minimize this risk and have original recovery DVD that can be used if something goes wrong.
  > but the problem is that when I boot up the computer by pressing 0 and enters the recovery screen, reboot loop will happen!
  Can you please explain what is exactly happening? Is - this laptop is simply cut off / go to the coast and then reboot again or what?

  I have Toshiba Satellite A300-146, model No.: PSAJ0E, 1 GB of RAM, Intel Dual core 1.87 processor, chipset Mobile Intel (r) 965 family.

  I can play some games like hitman silent of assasin on fullscreen and with graphics.

  But the problem is that a game could not open correctly IE after you open the game, he becomes 16-bit or not graphicsless. I tried these games = need for speed - pursuit and need for speed - undercover, the same problem occurs. I tried in windows XP and Vista.

  We all know Roadrash. I played this game in computer III pentium no value correctly... but I can not play in my laptop...

  Please help me to recover from this problem with the graphics.

  Hello!

  Check the system requirements for the game. Satellite A300 is not a high-end gaming laptop and maybe some new games couldn't work on this laptop.

  Maybe you need to reinstall your laptop with the Toshiba recovery disc. I put t have another idea so try and post your result.
