Satellite L300 - 16L - BSOD with new modules of RAM

Hello

I have a Satellite L300 - 16L and make me the same problem.

Has got 2 x 1 GB DIMMS standard and ordered 2 new 2 GB DIMMS. If I put the 2 new 2 GB DIMMS in I get the BSOD, Memtest also crashes as soon as it starts to test. If I place a 1 GB Dimm in the lower slot and a 2 GB in another windows starts fine, if I try to put the 2 in the lower slot and 1 GB in the higher the BSOD that he.

But if I put either of 2 GB on the lower slot his own windows boots fine, mem test has also allows to test the two GBs 2 individually and said no problem.

Any ideas anyone? My laptop is supposed to support 4 GB, I'm sure of it.

Thank you
JJ

Hi Jack_Jumpin,

> My laptop is supposed to support 4 GB, I'm sure of it.
Why you are sure that your laptop supports 4 GB of RAM?

I checked the specification of your laptop on the Toshiba page and this L300 - 16L supports only 2 GB. This means that you can only use two modules including 1 GB of capacity.

Sorry, mate, but you can use t 4 GB. The chipset supports only 2 GB.

    Hi mate,

    What new RAM modules that you have bought exactly? For the moment, I think that they are not compatible together and so the BSOD appears. I think you have to use other RAM modules if want 4 GB of RAM.

    Also if you run a memory diagnostic tool like Memtest86 doesn't it displays an error if you use the new modules?

  • Satellite L300 - 16L will not start

    Hello

    I hope someone can help me thanks.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300 - 16L that has suddenly refused to start. When I turn on my laptop, the screen stays black for centuries, and then a message from the Windows Boot Manager appears, saying:

    "Unable to start Windows. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To solve the problem:

    1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
    2. choose your language settings, and then click "next".

  • Satellite L30 - BSOD with 2 GB of RAM

    Hi all

    I have some problems, I can not explain on my * PSL33E L30 *. I bought 2 GB of RAM to put in it, but it makes Windows crashes (BSOD). I already tested memories, they all work alone. Of course they have all the right tip.
    Is there something to change in the BIOS or something?

    Thank you.

    Hey Buddy,

    If you get a BSOD with 2 GB of RAM, it seems that the modules are not compatible to your laptop in dual channel mode.

    I m not a technician but I mean that's the only possible reason because you wrote that they all work opportunity so they are not defective.

    I put t know which modules you bought, but you should test the other modules. I have good experiences with the Kingston memory modules.

  • Satellite L350-141 works with 4 GB of RAM?

    I want to improve my Satellite L350 up to 4 GB of RAM. BIOS accept 4096 MB.
    But I can't install an operating system (xp prof. or 32-bit vista)
    My L350 boot from CD DVD, but if the installation program does not start I have a reboot.

    My question is: will my Satellite L350-141 work with 4 GB of RAM?

    Hello

    I think that he should t be a problem with the 4 GB of RAM.

    But as you probably n t known, Microsoft Windows 32 bit OS cannot use the full 4 GB of RAM due to the limitation of the 32-bit operating system.
    Microsoft has published several articles and documents concerning the issue of RAM of 4 GB.
    If you want you can google for this question.

    Fact is that only Windows OS 64 bit (XP or Vista) would be able to use the full 4 GB of RAM.

    The BIOS and Chipset also support 4 GB of RAM to make sure that the laptop and windows would be able to use the full memory.

  • Satellite L755-16U - BSOD with an additional RAM module

    Hello everyone.

    I bought my toshiba Satellite L755-16U nearly 4 years ago.

    This year I decided to buy more memory for my 4 GB,
    I bought Kingston SODIMM DDR3-1333 4096 MB PC3-10600 because they have the same characteristics. Since then occasionally

    BSOD began to take place. I don't know why.

    I checked my drive with chkdsk and checked my memory with memtest86 - no error.
    Separately, the two work well in different locations. I'm desperate.

    Should I buy another a kingstone and try to put in 2 kingstones memories or what should I do?

    Hello

    According to specifications of the laptop, your machine can handle with 8 GB of RAM, so you can use 2 4 GB of RAM modules.
    Compatible 4 GB of RAM has PA3918U-1M4G part number. Part number of Kingston for this RAM module is KTT - S3B / 4G.
    That's all I can say on the upgrade memory.

  • Satellite L300-145 - BSOD appears if I installed 4 GB of RAM

    Hi all

    I have this Satellite L300-145 PSLB0E-03601LPT and I want to install 4 GB of RAM, but when I install 4GB on boot THEN BSOD appears.

    I try to change with the other memorys brand with equal modules, I'm trying to install Windows 7 64 bit, Linux 9.10 64 bit and it the same things. I try too update the BIOS but it the same thing.

    I think it's remapping feature memory on bios but does not have this option.
    So what I have to do?

    My laptop has now 3GB
    CPU: T2390 1, 533 Mhz 86Ghz
    CHIPSET: GM965
    RAM: 2 GB DDR2 at 533 Mhz
    HDD:Hitachi 200 GB

    After upgrade
    CPU: T8300 2.4 GHz, 800 Mhz
    RAM: 2 GB DDR2 667 Mhz
    HARD drive: Seagate 7200.4 250GB

    I really need 4 GB

    Hi mate,

    I m really confused now. As a first step, you wrote that you get BSOD if you upgrade to 4 GB, but the specifications after the upgrade are really different. You have a new CPU, RAM and HARD disk with another specification.

    Anyway, at first I checked the specs on the Toshiba website for your laptop and this model can only be upgraded to 2 GB; not 4 GB!
    This means that you can only use two modules of 1 GB in this notebook.

    Sorry, but you will not be able to use 4 GB in this model of laptop.

  • Re: Satellite L300-1AP BSOD when installing Windows XP

    I have a new L300-1AP and would like to intall XP Pro but when I try it I get the stop message 0x0000007b.

    Made a new installation disc integrated with all updated sata drivers, I still get the message. I'm not sure about how I would install drivers of third party on the F6 function because it has not a diskette and cany to find how to do the same thing in a CD anywere.

    I appreciate that we should all try to use the vista OS that came with it, but it is a problem of compatibility with older software that I use.

    Can anyone help please?

    In the Microsoft Knowledge Base is an article about it:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3ben-us%3B324103&x=17&y=8

    I think that there is something wrong with the SATA drivers. My Satellite L300 works with XP without problems or BSOD when installing.

    The SATA drivers are in this package, and the Intel Storage Manager you can download on the Toshiba site.
    You can create your own installation with nLite (http://www.nliteos.com/) disc.
    If I have integrated the SATA drivers, you do not have to press F6. The HARD drive will be automatically recognized.

  • Satellite L300 - recovery ends with the error message: 10-FA1Z - 045D

    My Satellite L300 is 3 months old and one a few days ago I resorted to the use of the 4 recovery DVDs.
    After several hours, I get an error: 10-FA1Z - 045D message. I made 3 attempts and get the same message every time.

    Any suggestions?

    My only suggestion for that is you should contact the closest service provider authorized as soon as possible. I am not sure what can be the problem, but it must be HARD drive issue or a problem with the recovery image.

    In both cases, you will get free and if necessary service service can order new DVD of facilities of recovery for you.
    Do not wait too long and vase your time with her. Call the nearest service tomorrow and talk to them.

  • Satellite L30 - 10Y black at startup the screen upward after the installation of new modules of RAM

    Hello

    I use the L30 - 10Y model with the following memory specification:

    standard: 512 MB
    maximum scalability: 2 048 MB
    technology: DDR2 RAM (533 MHz)
    expansion module sizes: 256, 512, 1 024 MB

    I use Windows Vista Home Basic Edition with a 32-bit operating system.

    When installing, I removed the standard 512 MB module and added 2 modules of 1 GB compatible. At startup, it stays on a black screen.

    However, if I removed 1 1 GB modules and put the old 512 MB module to give me 1.5 GB, it works.

    I was wondering if anyone knows why this is and if there is anything that I can try to get the maximum of 2 gb, if it is indeed possible.

    Thanks in advance.

    According to the product page Toshiba Satellite L30 - 10Y is able to manage 2 GB of RAM (2 x 1 GB)
    I think that the problem is related to memory modules not fully compatible
    I think a new, fully compatible RAM modules should resolve this problem.

    PS: You updated the BIOS? If this is not the case, check if a new update of the BIOS is available on the European driver Toshiba page.

  • Satellite L300-1F8 freezes with Win 7 but ok under Win XP

    Hello

    made me this Satellite L300-1F8 as hand down from my sister, and first glance seems he was in working condition.
    There is no OS on it and I decided to install it with windows 7.
    It starts up fine on the disc, but after some time on the installation process, it freeze or reboot.

    The next thing I did was have it running on an Ubuntu live CD... it did boot from the live cd, but after a while it froze again. I've done a memory test and all modules are very well.
    I check the hard drive, and again, it was ok. So I tried to install Windows xp on it and to my surprise it is installed without any problem.

    Does this mean that I can just install XP on this model?

    Also, I noticed that whenever the battery (the orange on the front of the unit) light is turned on, the computer restart or hang...
    This means that this device has a power problem?

    and oh, as I currently running on Windows XP, I have updated the Bios of 1.50 to 2.20 and even once tried to install Win 7, but had the same problem again.

    I returned to Win XP and installed without a hitch.
    Here is the complete model in my unit: Satellite L300 - 1F8 PSLBGE00T004AR...

    any help would be greatly appreciated... Thank you...

    Hello

    > Does that mean I can only install XP on this model?

    No, you can install any system. The hardware specifications of the Satellite L300-1F8 seems ok: processor Intel Pentium dual-core T3400, 4 GB RAM, 250GB HDD and Mobile Intel GMA 4500 M graphics card is good enough to Win 7

    I m wondering why the laptop froze running Windows 7 or Linux

    > Also, I noticed that whenever the battery (the orange on the front of the unit) light is turned on, the computer restart or hang... This means that this device has a power problem?

    Do you mean the battery indicator? The battery indicator is the 3rd left.
    The battery indicator indicates the State of charge. Green: charging completely charged and orange way.

    There are also other indicators:
    The first left is indicator DC IN which turns green when the AC adapter DC voltage. If the output of the adapter is abnormal this indicator shows no light.

    The second on the left is the led lights green when the laptop is running. If you turn off the computer in standby mode, it starts flashing orange. If the computer turns the indicator shows no light.

    Hello!

    You can start in safe mode?

    I tried a bit with Google and I founded out that the problem could be due to perhaps the HARD drive. In your case I would test with Drive Fitness Test:
    http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT
    With the Drive Fitness Test, you can test your HARD drive. Download the CD image, burn it to a CD and boot from it. Then you can test the HARD drive.

  • Why my Satellite does not detect a new module of memory?

    Hello

    Today, I installed a new memory module SDRAM 128 MB in my Satellite 1670. It is not a real module but on the package is the right code: PA3005U.
    After that I turned on the computer, it is not detected then I use still 32 MB of RAM.
    How can I solve this problem?

    Steef

    Hello

    The fact is that you use the right memory module. It is not easy to say why the new module is not recognized correctly. The slot is maybe defective. Try to remove 32 MB module and use any other location 1. (Unfortunately I put t know if this device has two or one single location for memory expansion).
