• 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-Y00 - how to use a joystick for games?

  How can I connect my Satellite A300/y00 with joystick so I can play without a keyboard because its very difficult to use?

  What one should I get, like joystick ps2 or gamepad xbox since the microsoft xbox and im using microsoft software such vista...?
  But my laptop has what we call the game controller in the Control Panel, it means that I always install the software to use the joystick?

  Thanx

  It s your choice what joystick you want to buy. Go to a computer store and take a look at all the joysticks and buy one of them.

  Normally you need a driver for the joystick, but the joystick should be bundled with an installation disk that contains the drivers.

  Good luck!

• Re: Satellite A300 PSAGCA: how to install Win XP as 2nd OS

  Hey any reader for the first time and shows for the first time.
  My comp is the Satellite A300 PSAGCA-02U010

  You 2 questions, hopefully someone can help me with.

  The issue of the first: like many people, I hate Vista.
  How can I run XP as a second OS that don't live my warranty?

  2. the volume level is not very strong (sound) when you watch a DVD etc. I tried different settings, and every time I do I have to restart to take effect, which is a pain that vista is slow to restart. I have downloaded the driver, but noticed that it is exactly the same as what is installed already :(

  See you soon

  > How can I use as a second OS XP who don't live my warranty?
  Installing programs or operating system would not avoid the warranty!
  You can install the Win XP as second OS without fear.

  But before install you anything, I would recommend the Toshiba recovery disc creation!

  With regard to the sound:
  As far as I know the parameters which are changes in the player are not not in trouble. You must increase the volume of every time when you start the software again.
  But have you tested different actors? For example, VLC player is a simple and free tools.
  I recommend to test

• Satellite A300-148 how to increase the size of the graphics memory?

  Hello..

  I have satellite a300-148, I update my laptop RAM from 1 to 2 GB but the VRAM is always 128 MB. and in the toshiba site write this:

  ((Graphics Adapter:))
  Manufacturer: Intel
  type: Intel® GMA X 3100

  memory type: shared))

  There are different between the two adapters? How to increase my laptop memory graphic size?

  Please help me...
  thanx

  Hello

  > How can I solve this problem?
  Problem? What is the problem?

  Take a look here on this page of the Toshiba hardware specification:
  [Satellite A300-148 | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 150445]

  Laptop supports the Intel® GM965 Express chipset but the graphics chip is Intel® GMA X 3100
  As you can see the type of memory is shared
  What does that mean?
  This means that this graphics card shares memory with the main memory. Everything is controlled automatically by the graphics driver.
  If the memory of the graphics card is required then graphic driver would assign memory automatically to GPU.

  I hope this helps...

  On my Toshiba laptop control buttons are preconfigured and the settings cannot be changed.

• Satellite A300-1J1 - how to install 2nd HARD drive?

  Hello

  I bought a Satellite A300 and I see in the workbook loads it is possible to add a 2nd hard drive. So I bought one and when I opened the box of hard drive, I have not found a connector to connect to my hard drive. I think I have to install a SATA connector, but I have not found a way to proceed.

  Thank you

  PS: Excuse me if you find mistakes, I don't speak very well

  Hey,.

  If there is no second SATA connector on the motherboard it s not possible to install 2nd HARD drive because you can t add such a motherboard connector.

  As far as I remember there are other threads on A300 and 2nd drive HARD here in the forum and the point is that all A300 using the same case for laptop, but the mothers are different. So you can have a 2nd HARD drive Bay but not connector.

• Satellite A300-1QD - how to restore Vista preinstalled?

  Hey,.

  I made a big mistake, two years ago. I installed windows 7 on my Satellite A300-1QD but on the laptop Windows Vista was installed and I have no recovery disk, but I have the original serialnumber of it.

  Are there opportunities to put Windows Vista on the laptop without buying a new version of Windows Vista?

  welcome them

  steste123

  Hello

  If you don t have a recovery disk, you must order such a Toshiba drive directly to restore preinstalled Windows Vista with all the drivers and tools (factory settings):
  https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

  But it s not free as far as I know it costs about 30 Euros.

  So I t understand why you didn't create the recovery disc yourself. Everything is mentioned in the user manual

• Satellite L350-24U: how to clean the keyboard after having poured orange juice

  Hello out there.
  I spilled my L350-24U with Orange juice.
  Now, I have 4 keys to self-retaining :-(

  Can someone tell me how to clean the keyboard without damaging the laptop?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hmm, it's still a stupid situation
  Usually you can remove the keyboard of the laptop very easily.
  The keyboard is fixed with screws hidden under thin plastic cover near the line of F1 - F12 key.

  If you would remove plastic this cover then you would be able to remove the screws as well. Then you could lift the keyboard carefully and could disconnect the flat cable of the keyboard and the motherboard.

  Notes; two small latches on both sides of the connector must be moved in order to disconnect the cable.

  Then you could remove the keyboard and could clean it with a damp lint.
  PS: the caps can be removed too.
  But be very careful. You must raise the CAP to get it for free.

  There are many videos on youtube...

  Before you try to install Windows XP to create a new partition.
  Then boot from the XP CD and install it. After that, you must restore the bootloader of Windows Vista using EasyBCD, for example.
