• Satellite A50 543: Questions about upgrading the HARD drive

  I'm looking to upgrade the internal hard disk on my A50 543 to 100 GB at 7200 RPM. The original drive is a Fujitsu 60GM 4200. I have found no information on the Internet on other readers line CMS that have been tested and found compatible with the A50. I need at least 5400 RPM or 7200 RPM to edit video.

  Suppliers meet usually only with so many laptops on the market, they cannot test each hard drive with any laptop, but can tell if it is compatible with the specifications of the computer and the hard disk specifications and are so confident that their information is accurate that they offer a money back guarantee (excluding shipping costs)

  My question is
  (1) how can I be sure that the drive will work (considering the high international shipping costs) to 100%?

  (2) none of the contributors to this forum may recommend a hard drive internal 5400 RPM or more it has installed on the same model specification?

  Thank you. You are my last hope

  Best regards
  Vince

  Hello

  If you want to be 100% sure that works on your HARD drive, so I think the best way is to contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner. Here, you can order all the devices and parts compatible and supported.
  I also found these Toshiba hard disks that must be compatible:
  HDD2187B 20 GB 4 200
  HDD2190B 40 GB 4 200
  HDD2193 40 GB 5 400
  HDD2189B 60 GB 4 200
  HDD2194 60 GB 5 400
  HDD2188B 80 GB 4 200
  80 GB 5 400 HDD2191

  In this case, you can use a disk HARD of GB 5 400 80 but I put t found no information about 100 GB of HARD drive.

• Satellite A50 543: still some problems with USB 2.0

  Hello
  I have laptop Satellite A50 543 with Win2k SP4 installed.
  The problem is that USB 2.0 is not active.

  I found a usb device that luckily automatically installed, so I installed it manually.

  The system is now a usb 2.0 hub - root.
  If I go to properties it shows me that the usb-external hard drive is connected. So far so good...
  (the external hard drive is USB 2.0!)

  now, I copy a file from the internal hard drive to the hard drive external... and there: surprise!
  I have a transfer rate of about 2.5 MB/s
  now I really Don t know what I can do!

  thx for your help and sorry for my bad English! ;-)
  hope you understand me!

  TOBO

  Hello

  Well, as far as I know this device was shipped with a USB 2.0 and it should support a rate of 480 Mbit/s and USB 1.1 data transmission support max 12 Mbps transfer rate.
  Did you mean the transfer rate of 2.5MB/s or 2.5Mbps?

• DVD-RAM UJ-820 s does not work on the Satellite A50 - 543

  Hello

  My present DVD-RAM UJ-820 s on Satellite A50 543 is not working correctly, original part is very expensive. Can I order to cheaper NEC AD - 7543A or NEC AD - 7540 A, but I don't know is it compatible with my Satellite A50 543 or not.

  Who can help me?
  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  From my experience not every disc is compatible with your laptop. It depends on the master / slave / parameters c - salt.
  The settings on the disks online slim for laptops is not editable as on desktop drives by putting the jumper.
  The thin line command does not support riders, and so the firmware controls the settings.

  But dnf666 already replaced the drive on sat 5200 and maybe your favorite player might be compatible

• Satellite Pro 4600: question strange memory - memory seems

  Hi all

  for the second time in 18 months, I have strange problems with cards of memory (2 x 256 MB 144-Dimm PC133) of my satellite pro 4600: from one day to the other, the memory seems to reach "grilled" as the old light bulbs. Before that I used the satellite pro 4600 for several hours and the surface on the maps of memory had very hot.
  Y at - it anyone out there facing the same problems? On the replacement: should I better go for chips PC100 PC133 instead?

  Thanks in advance: Bernie

  Hello

  The fact is that recommend Toshiba using these memory modules:
  PA3003U - 1 M 03 32MB MEMORY KIT
  PA3004U - 1 M 06 64 MB MEMORY KIT
  PA3005U - 1 M 12 128 MB MEMORY KIT
  KIT MEMORY OF 256 MB PA3069U - 1 M 25

  It seems that PA3069U - 1 M 25 256 MB PC100 module.
  Well, as you have suggested that memory cards got very hot. In my opinion the fastest PC133 produce a high temperature, and this could be a problem.

• Question of memory module - Qosmio F10

  Half of the year there, I changed the motherboard of Qosmio f10 PCB p000415760 to p000454980 (F10) of PCBs.
  When I get back any computer laptop I had a "RECORD OF INFORMATION TOSHIBA" who is after point 2:
  2 confirm the compatibility of the memory modules
  one. Some problems have been found with combination of the chipset Intel 915 PM EXPRESS and some memory modules.
  So you have to check what type of expansion memory is installed in the customer unit.
  b. Exchange an incompatible module with a PC 2700 DDR SODIMM (333 MHz) for module Alviso.

  This means that I have to change the memory module that was on the old Alviso module 855 chipsets?
  If so what type of memory should I get? Buy DDR2 for this motherboard?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  With your questions

  Half of the year there, I changed the motherboard of Qosmio f10 PCB p000415760 to p000454980 (F10) of PCBs.
  It's the card used for the Qosmio F15 AV201 model we. TOSHIBA motherboard (special), A5A001749010 (PM0025960010).

  > Means that I have to change the memory module that was on the old Alviso module 855 chipsets?
  No, if you use the module in memory of the former Intel 855 chipset to the new Intel 915 and try no problems, there is no need to change.
  When he says PC 2700 DDR SODIMM, this means that the type of memory to use. In this case, with a frequency of 333 MHZ, taken in charge by the 915 chipset. The brand is your choice.

  > If yes what type of memory should I get?
  The most often used with the Intel 915 are the Infineon PC 2700 DDR SODIM, but Samsung memory modules work fine, too.
  The best are the Corsair and Kingston (512 MB and 1 GB) and the most expensive modules.

  > Buy DDR2 for this motherboard?
  No, you cannot use the DDR2 modules with your motherboard F10. They are different fisically and performance at different frequencies, too.

• Satellite A50 543 - what is the correct BIOS?

  Hello

  My friend has a portable Satellite and the internal CD drive is broken and its Windows had a virus and was showing strange behavior I want to install XP to clean. Does not support BIOS current ver 1.2 boot from USB CD-ROM drives. In the support section, I found a worm 1.4 BIOS that says in the description "adds this Bios Update expands the functionality of your system.", not very useful.

  The bios file is called bios - 20070808112012.zip for model Satellite: A50, model runs no.:PSA50E.

  I know this is probably a redundant question, but just to be sure I can be sure it's the correct BIOS that I am not too familiar with Toshiba naming scheme.

  see you soon
  damole

  Hey damole,.

  If you don't find this BIOS on Toshiba website for your model laptop is the correct version. I mean why Toshiba has release a bad BIOS doesn t work?

  But I searched a bit using Google and I think that it of not possible to boot from USB also with the new version of the BIOS. This is possible on the new laptops and Satellite A50 is old enough, so I think that in this case, you need to replace the CD/DVD drive. Maybe you can get a second hand one from eBay that is cheap.

  But if you install XP from a Microsoft disc, a CD/DVD drive isn't necessary. Copy the folder integer i386 to the HARD disk and start the WINNT.exe file.

• Satellite A50 543, too much contrast

  Hello
  I bought yesterday an A50-543.
  After starting the laptop, I ve seen that the machine has too much contrast.

  I changed the settings of Gamma Correction.
  But in the default settings, the machine has a lot of contrast.

  We t couldn't compare this notebook by another of the same series, because we don t have another!

  The display is too great, but if I set the Gamma settings, everything is ok.

  I think that s that the image must be normal without changing the Gamma settings.

  What do you think is this Normal or not?

  Concerning

  [Edited by: moderation of the Forum]

  Hello
  Maybe there is something wrong with the Windows operating system installed?

  I think the easiest way is, do a recovery (restore factory settings) to see if the default settings do a lot of contrast.

  I hope that the laptop has no hardware failure.

  Good bye

• Satellite 2100: question of memory modules

• Satellite M40X-149: where a memory module?

  Hello

  I have a satellite M40X-149. I believe that my laptop has a faulty memory - gel randomly, sometimes will not start sound cmos etc. However when I opened the plastic lid it seems to be an empty memory slot. Assume that the memory is either on board or possibly under the keyboard as in some other models of Toshiba.

  Could someone tell me first where it is and also if it can be replaced. If it cannot be replaced, is it possible to disable it and use the empty accommodation?

  The machine is out of warranty so take it apart is not a problem

  Thanks in advance
  KeV

  Hello

  Yes, you are right. The laptop supports 2 locations in memory, but only one is scalable user.
  This means that the other is hidden somewhere under the keyboard!
  But if you remove the keyboard or any parts, you will lose the warranty.
  Therefore the slot is called scalable user because the common user could insert the module without having to open Notepad.

  The laptop can be upgraded up to 2048 MB. If one slot can candle 1024Mo!

• Satellite A300D PSAH8A replace the memory module

  Hi, everyone, I have a satellite A300D *(PSAH8A-01K00H) has only 2 G of RAM.
  I want to upgrade my RAM to 4 G, but not very well what RAM (I mean DDR2 or DDR3), how fast is compatible with the motherboard)

  Someone can give me some advice or a website to find its material information, would be much appreciated thanks in advance.

  Lee

  Hi mate

  Notebook´s RAM upgrade depends on the chipset.
  Means that you should check the properties of the chipset.

  But as far as I know the laptop must support 4 GB of RAM, and AFAIK you could use DDR2 modules RAM 800 MHz.

  PS: this information must also be placed in the user's manual. Then maybe you should check this too ;)

• Satellite L20-101: Question about memory PC2-4300 and PC2-4200 of mixture

  Hello

  I have Toshiba Satellite L20-101. He took 512 MB RAM (PC2-4300). Today, I added another module of RAM but this new module is PC2-4200. Is there something wrong with that? The two modules are DDR2 and 533 MHz and 512 MB.

  Hi Pawel,

  In principle, there is no problem with the mixture of slightly different types of RAM modules, but normally the total RAM will run at the speed of the slowest module. When your notebook detects the right amount of RAM from two sticks then it don't will don't... no problem.

  Kind regards
