• Satellite Pro 4340 - RAM upgrade problem

  I have exactly the same problem as Juan29. Link to his post below.
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=15837&MessageID=57907

  I want to improve my Toshiba Satellite pro 4340 to 320 MB of ram.
  The computer came with 64 internal RAM and I bought 2 x 128 MB of ram.

  My problem is that the second (B) ram slot does not detect the new ram.
  2 x 128 MB of ram were tested both in the ram slot (A) and work.
  I thought that a bios upgrade would solve the problem, but it didn't.

  I have the same defective (B) housing like Juan or does it have

  Help, please.

  What memory did you use?
  I've found that these modules are compatible:
  PA3003U - 1 M 03 32MB MEMORY KIT
  PA3004U - 1 M 06 64 MB MEMORY KIT

• Satellite Pro 6000 RAM upgrade problems

  Apologies for multiple - originally, I put this in the Satellite rather than the Satellite Pro series Forum.

  I have an old Satellite Pro 6000 that has 256 MB of RAM in it, and accordingly, as he tries harder sound, it is not the fastest machines.

  I want to increase the RAM to 1 GB, which I believe is the maximum and 2 sticks of memory of 512 MB PC133 CL3 3.3V, which I think should work fine.

  However, I tried to install either as a pair or separately, with the 256 MB of RAM, and when I put the memory in, the PC resolutely refuses to start. The lights of power lights, but it is only it works.

  I put the original 256 MB of RAM in the slot, and it works fine.

  I'm something wrong or missing something?

  Any help appreciated gratefully.

  Hello

  > Am I something wrong or missing something?
  Of course, you use the memory bad or is not compatible!

  Initialization not after an upgrade of memory is a common behavior if the modules are not compatible or do not work.

  You can upgrade the memory to 1024 MB (2x512MB) max and page Toshiba should run these modules:
  PC133 512 MB (PA3108U - 1 M 51)
  PC133 256 MB (PA3086U - 1 M 25)
  PC133 128 MB (PA3085U - 1 M 12)

• In Satellite A105-S2236 RAM upgrade problems

  I'm working on a Satellite A105-S2236 for a customer. She has Windows Vista Basic - and did not come with 512 MB of RAM, so it is very slow. I went by Crucial and got another chip 512 MB for this computer - after installation, it shows again that 512 - I tried to change the chips, each chip individiually running into the two slots to see if 1 chip or locations did not work, and everything works fine - except with 2 512 chips - it shows more than 512 RAM.

  I spent some time on the phone with Toshiba - bascially for them to tell me that the motherboard is picky and will not recognize 2 different brand of chips of RAM. 2 chips are quite identical features except the one who came there is Samsung and the new is Crucial. I can't believe they don't work together.

  Someone at - it ideas?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  You won't believe me, but many people have reported the same issue with the essential modules. The best thing you can do is to return and buy products known and of good quality. If you want one, order the module of RAM Kingston. They will work for sure.

• Satellite L450: upgrade RAM: BIOS shows 8 GB, Win 2 GB

  Hi all

  I have a L450 - 13L that has provided my company to me with 2 GB of RAM, it was about 2 years ago now...
  The laptop has been very good, but it has been gradually slowing down with the applications that were installed and suites operation
  so I recently decided to upgrade the RAM.
  Research on the web I found that I can install 2 RAM cards each a maximum of 4 GB, which is what I did.

  The RAM is IN2V4GNXBFX DDR2 4 GB 800 Mhz SODIMM

  What I have noticed is my laptop is now a little faster, but not much

  If I open the control configuration\systeme Zumex tells me that I have more than 2 GB of RAM
  If I open the BIOS it tells me that there are 8 GB of RAM

  What I did wrong or what should I do to get the RAM working properly

  I tried just putting 1 RAM card and new control configuration\systeme shows 2 GB and Bios 4 GB
  I tried to Exchange 2 cards between the slotts

  Any help much beautiful

  Hi mate

  What chipset do you have?

  The laptop with the Chipset Mobile Intel (r) GL40 Express supports 4 GB RAM max. This means that you can use 2 x 2 GB RAM modules

  The laptop with the Chipset Mobile Intel GM45 Express supports 8 GB of RAM. In this case, you can use 2 x 4 GB RAM max modules.

  In addition, it would be interesting to know what version of Windows 7, you use. 32-bit recognize 3.2 GB RAM max. The 64-bit version would recognize the total RAM.

• WIFI problem, Toshiba Satellite A665 internet connection. Lately when I try to connect to the internet, for the first minute or so it says "no internet connection".

  Hi all

  I had problems with my Toshiba Satellite A665 to internet connection. Lately when I try to connect to the internet, for the first minute or so it says 'No internet connection' (or something similar). Basically, he has the yellow warning triangle. Sometimes I can open the browser and search normally, but other times - and this happens more often it won't let me use my browser. When I have not fix the problem, he said that the DNS server is not responding. The problem is this same error happens all. unique. time. and the other computers in the House connect to the internet just fine. I called TWC and what I get on their part, it is "there no reported outages in your area. Useful, right? Tends to be gnawed by the use of Netflix and Hulu Plus, but this has never kept internet bandwidth to work in the past. What is going on? I'm so tired of having to go all the way down the stairs to reset the router every hour (on a good day) to get the computer to connect to the internet.
  I contacted Toshiba and they say that all the drivers on your computer are up to date and nothing is broken. I have also not downloaded or installed anything on my computer.

  If the reset of the router fixes the problem you should probably watch that as the culprit. Check the software/firmware for the router and see if you can borrow to someone router to test.

  I hope this helps.

• What can I do to make the Satellite A665-S6086 run with the new memory?

  I was able to update the BIOS for my Satellite A665-S6086 by updating 2.30 on CD burning. I have Windows 7 64 bit. I needed to update the BIOS, because I upgraded my RAM/memory of 2 GB (4 GB total) two cards two cards of 4 GB (8 GB total).

  My question now is when I start my computer with the new RAM/memory (two cards that are KTT-S3BS / 4G Kingston DDR3 1333 MHZ SODIMM SGL RANK), it freezes on the screen from Windows startup. Then when I hold the power button to shut it down and restart it, it wants to start using Windows repair but then crashes again. When I put in the memory of the old man and he start up, it starts the Windows repair and runs normally.

  What can I do to make my computer run with the new memory?

  I thank very you much in advance!

  What you can do?
  Buy an another RAM modules that are fully compatible with the laptop.
  It seems that you want to use the RAM modules which are not totally compatible and therefore the system hangs.

  By the way: the CPU that is used in this notebook runs the DDR3-800 and DDR3-1066
  RAM modules.
  http://Ark.Intel.com/products/49020

  I would not recommend to use the modules of DDR3-1333 but PA3677U-1M4G 4 GB DDR3-1066

• Satellite A665 - stop after standby

  Hey there,
  I have a problem: every time if I put my Toshiba Satellite A665 standby and wake him up, everything is normal for 3 seconds. Then the fan starts to work very hard for half a second, then the laptop down computer goeas as if it gets to hot. but it's not hot at all at this time. and after restarting, it shows the screen as there is no energy with the 3 Options how to start the laptop.

  Please help me. It is not a very big problem but its boring.

  If you are using 100% compatible RAM module I put t thinks he can be the reason for this behavior.
  Satellite A665 is not the latest model of laptop, it will be interesting to know since when you noticed this problem. Are you using the original pre-installed OS that you got with your laptop?

• USB drive not readable on the Satellite A665-13W

  Hello

  I have the following problem. I have Kingston DataTraveler HyperX 64 GB (USB 3.0) by car and it is perfectly readable on other PCs without worrying if I connect it to the USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 ports.

  The device is detected in Windows 7 64-bit on Toshiba Satellite A665-13W and I see it in Device Manager. He invites me to open the disk E: (NTFS volume), but it looks empty when I open it in Explorer Windows with a certain delay when Explorer seems to scan drive.

  I see some errors in the event viewer such as:
  Event ID 11: driver has detected an error in the controller on \Device\Harddisk1\DR2

  But when I connect for example Patriot 8 GB USB drive it works without problem. When I boot Windows 7 in safe mode, the Kingston DataTraveler HyperX 64 GB drive is connected, and I can read it.

  What should I do to make it readable without going into safe mode?

  I have the latest BIOS 2.30, I tried to enable/disable USB legacy support, I tried the fast/normal startup, I tried to install the latest Intel Chipset drivers, I tried all USB ports, including one that can be used as eSATA port, but without success. I also uninstalled the recognized device driver and let Windows detect the device again and reinstall the driver, but also without success. I also disabled power management option to disable device, without success.

  When I start in normal mode, I can't read NTFS volume. When I boot in safe mode I can read. The USB works on other PC in normal mode. Old USB 2.0 USB key works in normal mode. Strange. It must be a firmware problem or driver in my opinion. If it is a hardware problem or device the device would not work in safe mode!

  Are USB 3.0 64 GB of storage devices that are compatible with Toshiba laptops with USB 2.0 ports?

  There could be a problem of compatibility between the USB controller and the USB key.
  This compatibility questions aren't unusual.

  But I m wondering if you could try to fix this in the other direction:
  First check to see if the USB flash memory stick would appear in disk management

  Panel-> management-> disk management computer

  Here you will see all the partitions on the HARD disk and the USB connected.
  Check if you can format the USB key once more.

  If the USB does not appear here, try this method:
  Start the console by typing CMD
  Then type the command: diskpart and press enter
  Now, type command: automount enable and press enter

  Now, close all windows and restart the laptop.

• Satellite A100-803 - Vista recovery problem

  Hello

  I upgraded the RAM and HDD on a Satellite A100-803 and when I restore Windows Vista from the recovery disk process is going very well, but after restarting windows says that "Windows Setup could not set up Windows on this s material.

  I think that the problem is listed here.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2466753/en-us.

  But the problem is that I can't change the RAID setting in the BIOS, and during the installation of recovery, I'm not able to add the additional drivers needed.
  The new drive is a WD 500 GB driver (WD5000BPVT)

  How can I solve this problem?
  Thanks in advance
  Pau

  Hello

  First I put t think its BIOS problem.
  The laptop doesn't support RAID.

  I think the problem is the size of your new HARD drive. Upgrade of the disk HARD 500 GB and its larger than the original HARD drive equipped in A100.

  The point is that a recovery disk automatically creates the partitions on the HARD disk, but due to the size of the disk HARD the size of the partitions would be different also.
  I think that you won't have the same problems to install Vista or Win 7 using the Microsoft disk
