Satellite L500-1XR CPU compatibility

Dear members of the Forum!

I have a Toshiba L500-1XR (PSLJHE-001001HU).

Its origin comes with core i3 - 330 M (C2) CPU.
I would like to upgrade to i5 - 520 M or better CPU-that same recessed and have the same energy consumption.

The i5 CPU, there are 2 steppings: c2, k0
My CPU have C2 stepping.

My question is:
2.00 BIOS supports K0 steppings CPU is that also, or - newest (?) downloadable BIOS 2.10 supports K0, step by step, or not at all?

So I can use them all, even embedded CPU, or C2 single stepping of the?

I have not found any relevant information on the internet.
Where can I find more information on changes in the BIOS?

I think you know that there are two important facts about the CPU upgrade:
The new processor must be supported by the chipset, as well as by the BIOS.

It is very easy to find support for chipsets.
The laptop was equipped with a Mobile Intel HM55 Express Chipset and support is listed on the Intel ARK page
http://Ark.Intel.com/products/43183/Intel-BD82HM55-PCH

Under compatible products, you will find that all taken chipsets supported processors

But even if the chipset would support the new processor, there is a still pending regarding BIOS support. Unfortunately, there is no information on the CPU / BIOS supports.

But to my knowledge that different models of Satellite L500 were equipped with an Intel Dual Core 2 Duo processor and Intel Penryn/Celeron CPU takes in charge.

From my point of view of the few if you want to upgrade CPU, you must choose one of the series mentioned.

But once again: can not say with certainty that this CPU would be funded.

    I was a big fan of toshiba with 3 in the House, but when I come to upgrade the processor, I hit the wall a little. I have the most up to bios date on my 242 l300d pslc8e-06H013EN and I thought I was not looking for a laptop, an upgrade of the processor was option right ahead.
    I tried a zm-82 amd dual core as an upgrade for my TR-42, but the system does not even start.

    Q. has anyone had a successful that laptop upgrade or is there a cpu compatibility list?

    Zm-82 was a tenner and I went back, but if there is a dual core I can slot, it is much cheaper to replace a good laptop.

    I look forward to see if anyone has any advice.
    P.s. I did research the dual core, it wasn't a random purchase.

    Generally upgrade CPU on Toshiba laptops is not supported so there is no such list.
    What you can find is an official document on the CPU and GPU upgrade - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    From time to time theme on CPU upgrade is very real fact on this forum, that you can try to get such threads and try to know what other people write about. Do it with advanced search option.

    Let's see if anyone else has good experience with the upgrade of CPU on L300D.
    He must have a platform AMD, right?

  • Satellite M50-252 - CPU compatibility

    Hello!
    Can someone help me know what CPU Satellite M50-252 (partnummer: PSM53E-02N00ZED) supports? It has a 1.4 GHz 400 MHz Celeron now... but I need to update! It's slow! :)

    Thank you! MVH qzan.

    Hello

    I have goggled autour for some different models of Satellite M50 because especially the laptop series is supported by different processors. I found these compatible processors:
    ?? Intel Pentium-M Dothan 1.6 GHz, 1.73 GHz, 1.86 GHz, 2.0 GHz, 2.13 GHz
    ?? Intel Celeron-M Dothan 1.3 GHz, 1.4 GHz and 1.5 GHz

    I think that this CPU can be compatible but you know; a processor with a performance more to produce more heat and sometimes, this could lead to the automatically close down.
    This stop down happens due to overheating.

    So I think that no one will give an appropriate response if the laptop works stable or not.
    So you can be careful.

    I bought a laptop Toshiba L750-1RJ and I would like to know what processors are compatible with my laptop?

    Thanks in advance,
    Steve

    Hello

    AFAIK the Satellite L750 series was equipped with different CPU units.
    Processors supported are the port of Mobile Intel Arrandale processor family.
    The supported processors are:

    Intel Core i7 - 620 M
    Intel Core i5 - 540 M
    Intel Core i5 - 520 M
    Intel Core i5 - 450 M
    Intel Core i3 - 360 M

    Intel Pentium P6100
    Intel Pentium P6000
    P4500 Intel (988P)

    But be careful: usually updates are not supported by one of the manufacturers of mobile phones. In case you wish to perform these updates, so it is always your risk and peril.

  • Satellite L755-128 - CPU compatibility problem

    Hello dear colleagues,

    As the title says, I have a Toshiba Satellite L755-128 code PSK30E. He has a 2nd generation processor Intel i5 - 2410M.

    Laptop that works fine and everything, but I recently got a nice agreement on a more recent laptop with lower overall record, but a better processor. It's an and Latitude E5530, with a 3rd gen Intel i5 - 3230M.

    Go to the Intel website, I saw that basically two processors have the same TDP of 35W and the same size of package, both run on HT and have two hearts, the only difference is that architecture from 32nm to 22 nm and the frequency is higher.

    In addition, 2nd generation supports 1066/1333 MHz memory, and 3rd generation supports 1333/1600 MHz. My memory is 1333.

    Of course, as you may have guessed, I intend to swap the processors between the two laptops. Updated the BIOS on both of them, then replace the processors, re-assembled and starts, surprise: The recognized enjoy the old version of i5, ran fine and all, but Toshiba does not.

    He just opened when I pressed the button, but the screen remains black. Then I pressed the button again, it also normally stop. (I repeat, already updated BIOS update, as someone recommended). I disassembled again the Satellite, check if everything is in place, and second starting time still the same.

    Then, I am annoyed and exchanged in return on their original laptop processors. And both of them work fine.

    So if someone has encountered this problem could you please indicate if you managed to sort it out?
    What seems to be the problem, not the Satellite Map mother does'n not support 3rd generation Intel?

    If so, why? Or if that would work, what should I do?

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello

    I put t know any laptop manufacturer that officially would fund an upgrade of the CPU.
    For the most current updates on laptops are your own decision and no one could provide you with a confirmation that your laptop with new processor work or run correctly.

    Indeed many people try to update processors, and in many cases, it also works on Toshiba laptops.

    But there are a few important notes:

    (1) you must ensure that the chipset of the motherboard would support new CPU. In case it doesn't, you can not use

    (2) even if the new processor would be supported by the chipset, it is still pending regarding BIOS support. BIOS is changed for each series laptop and it is possible that some processors would not fully compatible or supported by the BIOS.

    As you can see, the upgrade of the CPU is not very easy and it s no matter that a laptop computer that was equipped with the same processor the L755 takes in charge the other CPU there are many more factors that could affect these updates.

    These updates are not available on the public download page so that you can try is to contact Toshiba nearest service and ask for help.
    I m quite pessimistic in this regard because Toshiba doesn't support the exchange of CPU or upgrade. I guess you know who. Do you have?

  • Satellite L500-1UU - disconnect the battery when it is connected to the AC adapter / CC

    Hello world

    I have purshaced new Toshiba Satellite L500-1UU
    CPU: Intel (r) Core i3 CPU M330 2.13 GHz
    Physical memory: 4096MB RAM
    Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 6.1.7600

    My question is: remove the battery when I use my computer laptop while its connected to the AC adapter would be wise or not? This would increase or decrease the life of the battery, or it will not affect anything?

    Is i3 processors have a technique of centrino disconnect battery power whent, it is fully charged?

    What do you think of this?

    Hi Khaild Essam,

    I agree with Akuma. There is no problem, remove the battery when the AC/DC adapter is connected. If you can do it. In addition the battery charge will be stopped if it s at full charge. The laptop consumes energy to AC/DC adapter only.

    If you remove the battery and work with AC/DC adapter only, the battery life will be improved a little because it s not in its use.

    I found an interesting document for you:

  • Satellite L500-017 - acting erratically CPU

    I recently bought the Satellite L500-017 who has the dual-core processor Intel Pentium T4200 2.0GHz and came preloaded with Vista Home Premium.

    Being a buff and new XP on Vista, I wonder why my dual-core CPU is erratically? Nifty box it jump around, watch same redlining of use of 90%, which seems strange for a dual-core. The AMD X 2 3200 + on my PC never jump that much.

    Any ideas? Is considering wiping in all cases for Windows 7 x 64 or go back to XP x 64 anyway, I wonder if I'll have the same questions in one of these versions.

    Thank you!

    Mike

    Hello!

    I put also t know why this happens, but I guess that the reason is not the CPU, it s software. Maybe you run a large number of background processes or have installed a large number of software applications.

    First of all, I would recommend deletion Toshiba TEMRPO because I founded this:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/FAQ9401B10001R01.htm

    In addition, it would be interesting to know what software AntiVirus or InternetSecurity you use.
    I have good experiences with Kaspersky and AntiVir.

  • Temperature of the CPU in Toshiba Satellite l500-1ef

    Hello!

    I bought Toshiba Satellite l500-1ef November and up to now laptop worked brilliant. Three-four weeks, touchpad and little space to the left of the touchpad began to be hot. I checked the temperature of the CPU in Toshiba PC Health Monitor (v 1.4.1.64), and it was about 30%, with 40% of the cooler. The temperature is increased over time and now, after four weeks, the touchpad is warmer, and is approximately 45-50% od CPU temperature, with 50 to 60% the use of the cooler.

    I am using laptop for Internet only, work in MS Word and listen the music, sometimes I play Warcraft III on it, I have Windows 7.

    Should I go with PC support, or it is normal in my model?

    Best regards

    Hi mate

    It s nothing unusual that the touchpad would be hot from the CPU and cooling modules are placed near the touchpad.
    So in my opinion, you shouldn't be worried about it.

    Laptop s temperature can increase after a certain time of use
    In this case due to the dust inside the cooling fans
    If you wish, you can try to remove the dust using a jet of compressed air
    I do from time to time and this helps to keep the temperature at the lower level

  • Satellite L500 - compatibility with Windows 7 with Nero

    I recently bought a Satellite L500.
    I wanted Nero on this if it was part of the appeal of the Toshiba.

    Now, I find that the version of Nero installed on the laptop
    is not compatible with Windows 7.
    I am sure that Toshiba should be disappointed with this parasite, and it was not their intention.

    I would be grateful if someone could suggest a solution to this problem outside of having bought an upgrade because it adds significantly to the final cost of the device.

    Hello

    What version of Nero are you trying to install?

    I guess that some versions are not compatible, so you should consult the homepage of Nero to the latest version. All current versions are compatible with your laptop.
    http://www.Nero.com

    By the way: for 3 months now I m using CD Burner XP. He the freeware tool and smaller than Nero. I love it, it s my favorite. :)

    Your laptop supports the Chipset Mobile Intel (r) GL40 Express.
    You should check what processors supports this chipset
    If the chipset would support your CPU preferred, then you have a good chance to run.

    But of course, there is also an open BIOS compatibility question.
    In the worst case the BIOS would not address the new processor

  • Satellite L500-19F - Exchange processor

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L500-19f, but the processor (Intel Core 2 Duo T6600) is not the option of virtualization (VT - X).
    I thought about buying another processor with this option, such as the Intel® Core™ 2 Duo processor T8300 (2.40 GHz, 800 MHz FSB, 3 MB Cache). I would like to know if it is possible to make this change on my computer.

    One of my doubts is that if appears the possibility to activate or disable VT - x mode in BIOS, and if not, when I run the OS if it is possible to use this capacity of the processor...
    I have updated bios updated to version 2.10...
    So, what do you think?

    In my opinion exchange of CPU makes no sense and will not help at all. As far as I know Toshiba doesn't offer special BIOS updates and, usually, exchange of CPU is not supported.
