This processor is so lazy :(

Thank you very much...

Hello

I'm really you was asking didn't compare this laptop with other series and pay attention which has better material inside series. It is now too late. Upgrading the CPU is not supported on portable computers.

Anyway, if you want to have the best performance to check the RAM upgrade possibilities. With more RAM and operating system perfectly, you can have good workbook.

  • Satellite L300 - upgrade from Vista Home Basic to Home Premium issues

    Hi all

    I recently got a Satellite L300 with a basic family OEM of Vista Edition version.
    I have a copy of Windows Vista: drive home edition Premium (upgrade) and decided to use it on the laptop.

    I put the disc in and followed the steps but the upgrade option is removed... It is if I use the product key provided with the disc or not.
    The laptop comes with Service Pack 1 is already installed and the drive I have is released in stores before Service Pack 1.

    My main question is really how can I get my drive to upgrade my version of Vista. I tried the Google search, this Web site, Microsoft Web site and I get the same answer.

    Basically, go into options and upgrade Express. They're all for me to buy from Microsoft that would be kinda useless as I already have a copy.
    I read something to a site that said my drive would have to have service pack disk and I've seen a site with some sort of disk editing program for Vista but I am not too keen to use it and the 'how' was not very easy to understand.

    Also, I am not too keen on appellant Toshiba or Microsoft on surcharge numbers to get something, I already bought and paid for and should be as simple as a few steps.

    Anyway hope someone can help as I really want to upgrade.

    Hello

    I understand and it is really annoying, but what to do now? the fact is that Toshiba has offered this book with some version of Vista. This version should be updated to better Microsoft security and the most recent available. Because of this Toshiba supply with the last option of SP1.

    So now, you try to install proposed update it there long and probably offered before SP1 was on the market. I understand your point of view but, in my opinion, has nothing to do with Toshiba now, and you should try to find the solution with Microsoft. For example you can also get info from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930733

    Clean Vista Home Premium can be installed without any problem. All the drivers, tools, and utilities are downloadable on Toshiba support & download page.

  • Satellite L300 - upgrade to windows 7

    I have a toshiba satellite l300-1dn notebook running vista premium.
    Upgrade to windows 7, I'm worried about losing part of the toshiba programs installed on my pc.
    I wanted to do a clean install on a new drive, but do not want to lose the toshiba dvd creator and dvd ulead movie factory, which came installed as standard.

    I want to know if I lose these two programs, if I do a upgrade and clean installation
    And if I do, is there anywhere I can download these programs in safe or better yet a way to save training I use now to reinstall them later after the new installation.

    To answer my own question, I lost the two programs, but found online and re-uploaded disc creator that he, ulead is gone for good.

    Hello

    I'm new here, so do not beat. I have a problem with the laptop Satellite L300 on the GL960. The factory now has a T2390. I replaced the processor T7100. Unfortunately, a few seconds only operate at full performance.

    After a few seconds, which decreases the frequency FSB and CPU have 800 MHz I tried to disable speedstep, but without effect. Temperatures are also fine (up to 60 * C). The fan does not even speed up to full power. Last Bios version: 1.50.

    What is it?

    You know very well that the CPU upgrade is not supported then play with these things on own risk only.

    It is not supported and grounds different CPU upgrade is not recommended.

    Please don t get me wrong, but I don't really know what you want to read now.

    Hello

    First of all, you should check if your version of Vista support Aero.

    Windows Vista Home Basic n t supports Aero.
    If you need a newer version of Vista to use this feature

  • Satellite L300 and high temperature - is this normal?

    Greetings

    I just bought a Toshiba Satellite L300 - 11 (Intel celeron 550), I\m kind new to laptops, and I realize it's too hot. I used the CPUID hardware monitor software, and it shows that:
    -ACPI THRM temperatures going as high as 63c (145f)
    -the processor is going up to 65 c (148f)
    -the HARD disk goes up to 45 c (112f)

    My questions are: is this normal for a laptop to reach these temperatures? I mean the touchpad and the area around it is annoyingly hot all the time (especially in the summer time where its already hot weather)
    Other models or brands have similar temperatures?

    And is it a Toshiba tool to monitor temperatures, rather than using third-party software?

    Thanks for any help.

    I don't know much about the temperature of the Celeron processor.

    My Toshiba L300 came with Hitachi 120 GB HDD, CPU T2370 upgraded to T7100:
    -HDD: max: 45 (watching ripped DVD on hard disk), 30 min (surf the internet, play warcraft III), average: 38 (using Microsoft, Photoshop and programming tools)
    -CPU: 43 to 57, penalty going up to 63.
    -ACPI: Min: Max: 43: 56

    Hope that these figures will give you some tips.

  • Satellite L300 - boring loading problems

    Hello world.

    I've got my Satellite L300 nice for about 23 months now, and I absolutely love it.
    There is just one problem: my PC is not loading properly. There are always about a 1/50
    lucky, I have to play with the inputs and output for all 5-10 minutes each
    I plug it in time. I had this problem before (about two months ago) where I sent it
    Back to the store and they fixed. I was able to pick up there is still almost a month
    and everything worked properly again.

    It's really, really frustrating and I hope there is a solution simple sorta.
    Anyone who is familiar with this problem and to know what exactly is the problem?

    Thank you in advance.

    This kind of technical problems, there is no simple solution.
    If you have a serious issue with load problem, it is probably related to electronic power supply and it must be checked by authorized personnel only.

    Tell me but honestly: what can you fix these problems?

  • Face recognition not starting not not by Satellite L300

    Just bought a Satellite L300-13r for my daughter. One of the selling points was the guarantee of face recognition. Only problem is that he isn't starting from the start. Found the software on the computer laptop-even if it has not been shown on the desktop - I had to use the search option. I signed up his face and think that I entered the settings properly, but that's all just not running at startup.

    Whenever I have run the software of Recon face manually, vista wonder confirmation that it's alright to run it. (This would have something to do with the failure to launch?).

    I am also concerned by the gfx chip. It was announced as x 3100 but I seem to have an Intel 965 chipset. Is it the same?

  • 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.

  • Satellite L300 - up but screen now empty + no hard disk activity

    I was just restoring a laptop Satellite L300-1DN for someone who has 2 main issues.

    (1) it was dirty on the inside
    (2) he asked instantly when starting, the password for the BIOS that is unknown and the "Toshiba" standard does not work, so I think that BIOS should be reset.

    I have it disassembled and cleaned everything and it back up to new back to how it was. But when I now turn on although power and battery lights up and the fan is running, there is no display there is no activity from the drive hard or its lights.

    Any thoughts on the cause of this?

    Thank you

    What say about it?
    General laptop disassembly is permitted for staff only and this should be done following an exact description in the document of maintenance manuals.
    You did it on your own, knowing he can be risky and ends with a few hardware malfunction, especially if you try to reset the BIOS.

    What you can do now is to reopen and checking all the connections again. What else can you do?
    I can't say for sure, but somehow I think the BIOS is screwed.

    To be honest, some password BIOS Toshiba standard is unclear to me and I've never heard that there are something like that. Reset the BIOS? How did you do that? As far as I know, this method is different for the different laptop models.

  • Satellite L300 - 12K PSLB0E: hardware upgrade

    Hello!

    I would like to increase my ram, but the Toshiba site, the specifications indicate that the max ram is 2048.
    Is this correct, or if I can replace my 2 x 1024 for example putting 2 x 2048?

    I want to upgrade the processor too. Is this possible?

    Thanks in advance!

    > Is this correct.
    Yes.

    Computer laptop Satellite L300 - 12K PSLB0E supports the Chipset Mobile Intel GL960 Express
    Here you can find some s chipset Specifications:
    http://Ark.Intel.com/products/29830/Intel-82GL960-graphics-and-memory-controller

    As you can see it this chipset supports 2 GB RAM max. This means that you can use 2 x 1 GB RAM modules

    > I would like to upgrade the processor too. Is this possible?
    Such t upgrade is officially supported by the laptop manufacturers. That is why its hard to say if the new CPU is running properly.

    Is that these updates depends on the support of chipset and BIOS support. Where the CPU is not compatible with one of the mentioned parts, laptop computer will not work

    What happens when you start the webcam app?
    All programs-> Toshiba-> webcam

    Did you install other 3rd software part as for example the Skype that could access the webcam?

    Extra tip: go to BIOS and set it to default, save changes, and then restart the laptop.
    Start Skype for example, check the settings in Skype webcam chose correctly.

    It would be really interesting to know if the other software would be able to use the webcam.

    By the way: have you installed Toshiba face recognition? This software use and access the webcam as well
    Then sometimes it would be possible that this software could block the webcam and webcam tool could not work
