• Satellite A60-131: Question about upgrade RAM and HARD drive

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A60 S-131, bought 2 years ago.
  I want to know is it possible for me to upgrade (internal) for a superior ability to HDD 40 GB HARD drive and update my RAM to 512 MB on the rise.

  Also I already inserted a 256 MB DDR RAM in the empty memory slot almost 1 year ago.

  Help will be appreciated.

  Hi Pranjal,

  You can definitley upgrade your hard drive for a larger version. You should find that a 80 or 100 GB will work fine. You should make sure that you get you a new disc with the same physical characteristics as you existing. The following link will help you remove the hard drive.
  http://irisvista.com/tech/laptops/ToshibaA65/satA65_1.htm

  You can also get a new hard drive with a more rapid rotation speed (5400 RPM or 7200 RPM).

  I think that the maximum RAM for the A60 is 1.25 GB which includes 1 X fixed module (I presume yours is 256 MB, which means that you can install an additional module with a capacity up to 1 GB. Available in capacities of 256 MB, 512 MB and 1 GB of RAM modules.

  Kind regards

  HELO everyone,
  I need a major update so I wanted to know if it is possible to upgrade the processor. I'm already playing Doom 3 ulra high with 4 X Ati and 1024 X 768.
  He sent me some 46 frames per second, with 2 GB ddr 533.

  Then I put the Satellite P100 - 188 T2400 T2500 or T2600 CPU and can I use ddr2 667 mhz Ram?

  Any suggestions how much performance increase if you upgrade hard drive 5400 RPM to 7200 RPM with 8 MB of cache?

  Thank you

  Hello

  The CPU cannot be replaced. But you can expand the memory with the modules:
  PA3499U - 1 M 25 (Kit of memory 256 Mo DDR2-667)
  PA3511U - 1 M 51 (Kit of memory 512 MB DDR2-667)
  PA3512U-1M1G(DDR2-667 1GB Memory Kit)
  PA3513U-1M2G(DDR2-667 2GB Memory Kit)

  DDR2-533 256 MB (PA3389U - 2M 25)
  512 MB DDR2-533 PA3412U - 2 M (51)
  1 GB OF DDR2-533 (PA3411U-2M1G)

  The maximum memory that you can use this camera is 4 GB.

• Satellite L30-134 - question about upgrade CPU and video performance

  Hi have updated my satellite l30 - 134 with a bus t2450 dual core @2 ghz 533 Mhz = cpu is runing swell-marks look nice... BUT - my video performance droped a lot - grafics 2d - to top but 3d grafics are very poor why? driver problem?
  have also 2 g ram 2 x 1 g kinmax @ 6xx runing @533

  can anyone help? see that are some similar configs on this site... then maybe you can help me
  I'll try editing a xp 64 bit (curently runing xp sp3 32-BIT)

  > I'll try editing a xp 64 bit (curently runing xp sp3 32-BIT)
  Forget that don t recommend install Win XP 64-bit.
  Why? Because the Win XP 64 bit was not so popular as Win 32 bit or Vista/Win 7 64 bit and you won't find many drivers for Win XP 64 bit.
  Stay with XP 32 bit or you can change to Win 7 64 bit.

  Regarding the graphical issue;
  Have you noticed that also using the old CPU (Intel Celeron M Processor 410)?
  If this were not the case, then I guess this could be a problem between the CPU and BIOS.
  Otherwise I would recommend upgrading the graphics card driver.

• Satellite A350D - 20K - Question about upgrade second HDD + Temperature

  I have a question about my laptop. I have notticed it is a second location of HARD disk on the bottom.
  Is it possible to use this to increase my storage?
  And if yes, how do I do that? I don't see all the connectors.
  What type of HARD drive to use in case it is possible to use this slot machine?

  My second question is on my laptop to be very hot after a short period of use.
  I installed speedfan to record the temperature. When I start the laptop, it already is between 45 and 50 degrees.
  He stayed there for half an hour and then it starts to get warmer. When I start to use the laptop for anything, it triggers to between 70 and 80 degrees.

  This does not seem normal to me. I tried to clean the vents with compressed air, but it has not made a difference.
  I searched on the internet how to take the laptop part for proparly cleaned TI.
  But I can't so I'm looking that destroy it.

  This could be the cause and more importantly, how can I solve this problem?

  Tom

  The second HARD drive bay contains the HARD drive connectors?
  If Yes, then you can use a SATA 2.5 HARD.
  If there are no connectors, then you will not be able to use the second HARD drive

  CPU and GPU produce a lot of heat. The heat dissipation is always created then there s nothing unusual that the temperature rose to higher level.
  You can change the settings in Win 7 power management. You can set the CPU to lower performance and can increase the activity of fan, which will help lower the temperature.

• Satellite P200D-139 - Question about recovery disk

  My father has a Toshiba Satellite P200D-139 and we lost the recovery for laptop disk and the recovery HARD drive image also disappeared.

  So I ordered a new pack of Toshiba and I was just wondering if I had to put a new HARD drive in the laptop (a bigger HARD drive) the recovery pack contains Windows Vista to put it back on the hard drive?

  I once had an old Windows XP on Toshiba Satellite 1900 and packed on that hard drive if I bought a new disc and ran the recovery disk and it put Windows back on so I hope that this pack for this laptop does the same.

  Hey,.

  Is that the Toshiba recovery disc can restore the factory settings every time and on each HARD drive. If you replace a new s than what it still possible to restore the factory settings on the same HARD drive, nothing is installed on the HARD drive. HARD drive recovery files are not necessary for the recovery disk because the recovery itself contains these files.

  So replace with a bigger HARD drive and boot from the recovery disc. You come out of the box settings and the computer will be ready to use after this :)

• Satellite Pro 4600: Question about upgrade RAM, CPU, motherboard

  Hello

  I have a SP4600 and because I love this machine, I want to give him the chance to stay with me - but unfortunately, it will only work by increasing its performance...

  Is anyone here has made some experiences in upgrading a SP4600 more than 512 MB of RAM?
  I know that this machine uses PC100 SD - RAM that is available up to 256 MB.
  But someone has tried successfully to put in PC133 memory? And if so, to were the limit?

  And more: what about the upgrade of the rest, for example, the CPU or the whole motherboard?
  Currently, his heart beats with 700 Mhz (Celeron). Would it be as easy as just another graft?
  Or would it be easier to exchange the whole motherboard?
  I've never done anything like this before and I'm not sure how the rest of the system can react on these interventions, in particular because the we-board-video and sound on board...

  I would be delighted if someone could give me some positive feedback on these issues...

  Hello

  You can only use the memory 100 Mhz modules because the FSB is limited to 100 MHz.
  If you use 133 Mhz modules, they will work only at 100 Mhz.

  You can upgrade the satellite Pro 4600 until 512 MB (2x256MB)

  Other devices such as the CPU or GPU are not extensible and the motherboard may be replaced only with the same motherboard

  Finally, you should know that the laptop technology is a little different and you can't compare it with any desktop computer. You can update some parts such as the memory or HARD drive, but that s all the

• Satellite A200-1CR: Question about upgrade HARD drive

  Hi all...
  I would like to ask something...

  I have toshiba Satellite A200-1cr with 120 GB HARD drive...

  I would like to change my HARD drive. I found a disk hard 2.5 "with 250 GB.

  My questions are the following:

  (1) my knowledge of the workstations are very very good. Is it easy to change myself?
  I guess it is, but I want to be sure... I guess that is on IDE, right? No SATA at all?

  (2) if I changed it I lose my warranty?

  (3) can I give my laptop Toshiba in Greece official store and let them make the change?
  May I take in an informal shop, too?

  (4) can be put on the laptop 2 x 250 GB such US new computers laptops from toshiba?
  Is there enough space in the laptop for such a change?

  Thank you in advance...

  Hey Buddy

  It is good that ask you the question.

  (1) the Satellite A200-1CR supports SATA and no IDE interface and that's why you need a SATA HDD. It of really not difficult to replace the HARD drive and as far as I know, you should find a few details in the user manual. There is a useful statement and photos that explain the entire procedure.

  (2) hm AFAIK the drive replacement HARD will not void the warranty, and has no effect on the State of security.

  (3) you can also contact the maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country for a HARD drive replacement, but in my opinion that is not really necessary because the replacement is not very sensitive. As I said above, check the user manual.

  (4) I don t think that your laptop will support 2 x 250 GB HARD drive.
  Of course, there are a few other series laptops which are abele to support two hard drives but I n t think that your laptop A200 support.

  Just a small comment on the new HARD drive:
  The fact is that some more HARD drive are not supported by the BIOS. I mean an upgrade to 120 GB to 250 GB drive HARD is really a leap one possibly your BIOS would not recognize the HARD drive correctly.
  So I recommend to test the HDD first before buying.

• 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

  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 A100 PSAARA - Questions about RAM, VGA and BIOS

  I used Toshiba Satellite A100 PSAARA, now I have a few questions:

  1. I have updated the BIOS for my laptop (new version 6.0 to version 5.10): everything seems to work ok, but after I rebooted the laptop, it automatically connect a black screen with these warning "checksum bad sectors, F1: default settings, F2:..." (remember exactly).
  I pressed F1, my Toshiba reboot works ok after that, so there's something wrong with this warning?

  2. I upgraded RAM to 2 GB (1 GB + 1 GB) with the KingMax brand, if the RAM expandable max I can do on my laptop?

  3. This Toshiba laptop use to edge or video card, I check my Nvidia geforce card real estate (laptop) and I saw this: memory: 256 MB + RAM shared memory: 256 MB = 512 MB of total memory?
  So: can I upgrade my card graph and maximum card that I can use?

  4. I cannot set 75 Hz for refresh monitor, can see 65 Hz

  Thanks for your help!

  1. try to load the default settings in the BIOS. Then it should work.

  2. the Satellite A100 supports 4 GB max.

  3. No, the graphics card can not be changed. It s soldered on the motherboard and cannot be exchanged.

  4. what internal or external monitor? Monitor internal and other s LCD works best with 60 Hz.

• Satellite Pro A10: Question about upgrade HARD drive

  I want a bigger hard drive, but xp home edition preinstalled. If I change the hard drive I don't think that the recovery disc would work to re install xp. How can I do this without having to buy a new version of windows? Oh, it's a portable satellite pro spa10.

  Sorry, but why you are suggesting that the recovery CD will not recognize the new HARD drive?
  The fact is that if the BIOS will recognize the new HARD drive then you will have no problem for the recovery and the installation of the OS.

  If you want to upgrade the HARD drive, you must use a compatible. Then everything simply initialize-towards the top of the recovery CD and the operating system will install on the new HD disc.

• Satellite Pro A10: Question about upgrading video card

  Hi guys, I have a laptop Satellite Pro A10 and I was wondering if anyone of you could help me.

  I want to improve my Ram card memory and video. The video card now is an Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME Graphics Controller and want a graphics card with at least 128 MB of memory on this subject.
  Any recommendation?
  Any help would be appreciated muchly.

  Hello

  It of not possible to change the graphics card. The graphics card is a small chip that attaches to the motherboard.
  This graphics card supports up to 64 MB shared memory. The graphics card gets this value of main memory if it s needed.

  The possibility to upgrade the memory of this device is something different.
  You can upgrade the memory to max 1024 MB (2x512MB) and these modules should work.
  PC2100 128 MB (PA3126U - 1 M 12)
  PC2100 256 MB (PA3127U - 1 M 25)

  Hello

  As Akuma already written, you can choose a CPU of the other models. Look on the lower side to identify your model number.

  But don t forget that the CPU upgrade is risky. No one has tested this before CPU in your laptop and my cause overheating or something else. This upgrade is official not supported: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm
