• Satellite Pro L300 - second defective memory Slot?

  Hi, I'm trying to install 4 GB of memory in a laptop Satellite Pro L300. This kind of thing, I did a thousand times before.

  However, every time I install a module of memory in the second memory slot, the laptop will be a blue screen when windows is loaded. Even running memtest (via bootable cd) will result in a block, so it is not for lack of Windows.

  I have the latest version of the BIOS installed (1.50)

  Each module of memory works perfectly in the main location on its own.

  With the help of a single module of memory in the memory secondary slot (even the original 1 GB module) translates the laptop does not even start.

  Is this a known issue? Or is it just a second faulty slot?

  Thank you very much!

  Maybe it's a non compatible memory module.

  What model of laptop you have exactly (L300-xxx)?
  What extra RAM you bought?
  Have you checked the compatibility?

  To be honest on this forum you will find many forums where people have described the same problem after upgrade. Most of these problems described was linked to the use of markets and not compatible good RAM modules.

• Satellite L300 - problem reading memory in the slot/Bank 2

  Hello.
  I have a Sattelite L300 with 2 * 1 GB memory which had strange problems of som.
  Among a large number of tests, I tested the memory inside.
  When there is a module of memory installed in slot/Bank 2 (the one closest to the bottom of the pc)
  I get an error. Bought a new module, but I still have an error, so the error must be with the Bank/slot.

  Tried cleaning the connectors of slot with a brush-glass, without a bit of luck.

  The pc works perfectly (but slow), with 1 GB installed in the slot/River.

  Can someone help me with this problem?

  Concerning
  Jens (Denmark)

  I agree with Akuma.
  If two modules don t work in the second slot but in the first place, then the second slot is defective and that means this motherboard must be replaced.

  Hello

  Shared graphics memory is controlled by GPU driver. You cannot add or edit it manually.

  More depends on the Windows OS you use, because the 32-bit system can manage max 3.2 GB of system memory.

  For example:

  * (32 bit OS) *.
  System memory: 2GB | 4 GB
  Dedicated video memory: 128 MB | 128 MB
  Shared system memory: 702MB | 1214 MB
  TOTAL available graphics memory: 830MB | 1342 MB

  * (64 bit OS) *.
  System memory: 2GB | 4 GB
  Dedicated video memory: 128 MB | 128 MB
  Shared system memory: 702MB | 1631 MB
  TOTAL available graphics memory: 830MB | 1759 MB

  Hope I could help you

  Hello

  I bought this system as my first laptop from Toshiba.
  Satellite L550D-136
  Part number: PSLXSE-00E00SY4

  I visited crucial.com to verify what type of memory I can put in this laptop and he came back with the result that it could not identify exactly what type of system it is but is to show that this laptop has 4 memory slots. So I went ahead and it opens from the bottom and I see only two slots (2x2gb).

  Is there some more hidden across what locations they mob or is it information crucial false?

  I can't find a proper documentation on the toshiba Web site.

• Satellite L300-129 - how to increase the video memory (shared)

  Yesterday I bought TOSHIBA Satellite L300-129

  AND I WANT TO ASK SOMETHING:

  I want to share some memory to improve the proceedings of VGA card.
  I know that I need to do from the CONFIGURATION of the BACK but I can't and I need to improve my VGA card because the default is so so small... I want to give him some PART of MEMORY (RAM) SYSTEM

  PLEASE I NEED HELP

  THANK YOU GUYS;

  Hey Buddy

  Unfortunately, I doubt that you can allocate a portion of system memory to video memory manually. AFAIK this sharing process is controlled by the driver for graphics card and all run automatically.

  On the other hand the graphics card driver could assign more memory for video card if the system memory could be upgraded.
  In other words the higher system RAM superior video RAM.

• Satellite L300-229 - new module of memory is not recognized

  Satellite L300-229 - I just installed an extension of memory of 1 GB to add to the existing 1 GB.

  I used a 1 GB Crucial 200pin DDR2 SODIMM PC2 6400 CL6. For some reason, it will not recognize it and shows again that the 1 GB. I closed and installed in start mode according to manual and tried to reinstall.

  Any idea?

  Thank you

  Hello

  What happens if you only install the new module 1 GB RAM? Don't start the computer and if so how much RAM does show?

  Normally, the specifications of the new RAM module should work. I have a Satellite L300 too and I've updated it with the same RAM but Kingston. It works without any problem. :)

• Re: Satellite L300-147 how to install DDR2 667 2 GB memory card?

  I have the right part number to install memory for my Satellite phone but don't know how to do it. all the tips and tricks on how/where to open up the laptop and insert the memory card?

  Thank you!

  Chris

  Memory locations are generally accessible from the Base of the laptop.

  Find a door with a screw, remove the screw and lift the door. You should see two memory slots (with a free location according to the model).

  But you must make sure that your laptop can take 2 GB modules. I think that if you have a Celeron processor, the system cannot take more than 1 + 1 GB

• Satellite L300D-10 q: I can find only one memory slot

  I want to increase the memory from 1 GB to 4 GB.
  However when I remove the cover I see 1 location with the current in module.
  The literature indicates there are 2 slots and it is expandable to 4 GB.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  The Satellite L300D supports two memory for sure locations.
  The slots are placed at the bottom of the unit. You can find it in the middle. The slots are secured with a screw. Under the plastic cover, you should find two memory locations.

  Sometimes the second slot can be hidden under the first memory module

• G7-2235dx - memory Slot defective/made not climb in memory Slot

  Recently I bought a package of 4 GB of DDR3 1600 PC3 12800 for my laptop. I received it today and progressed to install after the direcitons given to the user of my laptop manual. But never well switched memory. It seems that the retention clips are not long enough, or there is something blocking the module to go fully into the slot of memory. I found that odd. After finding out that memory does not fit in the slot, I removed the HP factory memory module, it is the crack and tried to put it in the slot of the replacement part or defective. Also, there is no good. Just for clarification, I tested the memory purchased in the slot of the workign and memory works perfectly. I wonder what could be the problem with my memory slot.
  
  I called HP support and they said it would cost me $290 for the slot to be repaired. I find it a lot since I paid $300 for the laptop itself.
  
  Any help is apprechiated.

  A motherboard itself is going to be at least $ 125. There is work. Of course, it does not. I put 4 gigs in it in the a good slot and just use it.
