• Satellite M100-126 - Win 7 32 bit indicates 'only' 3 GB of memory usable

  Hello

  Here's the situation:

  I have a Toshiba satellite M100-126 (PSMA1E - 0PV021FR) running Windows 7 32 bit.
  He had originally 2gigs of Ram, but after that my brother's cell phone broke down (motherboard failure) I took his 2x2gig of ram and installed in my laptop.

  Initially, the BIOS detected only 3gig, so I flashed the bios than that recommended by the Toshiba Download Center, i.e. v 3.0, http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tools/eula/calleula.asp?ID=66238 direct link (if it works). There is also a version 5.6, only for Vista, but I did not use that one.

  For now: the bios detects 4gigs and Windows, but windows says 'only' memory usable 3gigs.
  Windows resource allocation, 1gig is 'reserved material', so this memory usable 3gig. If I replace one of the modules by a 1gig module 2 giga, I get only 2 MB of the reserved equipment, and 3 gigs installed memory are usable...

  Here are the questions now:
  I am aware of the limit of memory for 32-bit systems, and that I won't be able to use the full 4gigs of anyway, but my brother got 3.5 GB of memory can be used on 32-bit system... Is it

  Hello

  Win 32 bit can allocate only 3.2 GB (not 3.5 GB)
  It is the limitation of all 32-bit operating systems.
  I put t see any problems here the BIOS detects 4 GB of RAM. It s ok.
  Windows can use 3 GB only because the other party is used by the graphics card.

  The GPU can share a part of the main memory too and it also depends on the available main memory.

  Good bye

• Satellite L770D - 10 d - the processor upgrade

  I have SATELLITE L770D - 10 d with AMD A4 - 3300M and I would like to upgrade the processor to for example A8 - 3500M, since they have the same socket and TDP. I have the Toshiba support pages, but I couldn't find an answer.

  This is because toshiba usually does not support updates to their laptops and if they do its own risk

  the only way to know if it works is to screw open the laptop and see if the cpu is not soldered to the motherboard
  If that's your out of luck and the custom then able to switch on the cpu

  If not then u check if the motherboard support is the same as the new A8 - 3500 m

  If it's the same thing then u go to the step following and demand for the bios - mods.com if your BIOS has the required firmware for this cpu

  then IF that is okey then you will be able to replace the cpu

  remind u this will require you to disassemble almost all computer laptop and high risk damage to your product if it is not done right
  so, if you don't have any COMPUTER knowledge id suggest u not not for this

  This time did so with L500-1ZP, which came with an i3 330 m and upgraded to an i7 620 m still solid

• Satellite P300-27 x - issue processor upgrade

  Now, I would like to ask if its possible to upgrade processors written with? I have the same GM45 and socket BGA479... But the tension is differerent on these procesors....

  How to change that?

  Do I have to put the new bios-is there?

  see you soon,

  Generally the CPU upgrade is not supported and I think that it is not best solution for you.
  See also http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  I think CPU on your Satellite has enough power for all operations you need. To increase the performance of laptops, increase the RAM. As I see it can be upgraded to 8 GB.

  The screen is black and nothing seems to load.

  The case is clear like a Crystal;

  The M100 cannot start because memory modules are not fully consistent or both modules or only a single module is defective.

  I put t see any other solution to test for laptop with other modules

• Satellite M100 - 165 PSMA1E - XP Pro updated to Win7 Ultimate problem

  When installing Win7 Ultimate (Eng) with current XP Pro en shows system error (something like could not find a certain file) and the installation will stop.

  At the beginning of the installation, I delete all partitions and create new ones.

  At the same time Win7 creates, it's own partition with the size of 100 MB.

  Using the same disk I installed Win7 on Compaq Presario CQ60 no problem. Also instead of XP Pro.

  What could be a problem?
  I have to download and use a special software from Toshiba?

  Currently I just get XP Pro using from an external drive USB Acronis Universal Restore.

  I'd really appreciate for your help.

  Stand by?
  First I would like to know which version are you trying to install?
  I checked the Toshiba download page and saw that this old notebook is supported for Win7 32 bit only so I hope you are using the 32-bit version.

  Are you using the original installation disc for Microsoft?
  Usually clean Win7 installation should work without problems, especially if you make clean OS install. I ve tested on several old notebooks and didn't note any problem.

  Set the BIOS to the default settings and try again.

• Cooling module often works on Satellite M100-126

  Hello!

  I have a problem with my new computer. It works well, BUT the fan works when the core temperature is about 34 ° C and stops when it comes down to about 30 ° C.

  If the fan works and stops quite often especially when I just use Word. So it's a bit noisy and I did not fund any solution to this problem. I tried all the possibilities with the Toshiba energy device but it is always the same.

  I would like to have a permanent fan running no stop and go. Do you think that I would have a better result if I update the Bios?

  Thant you for help me.

  Hi Pierre

  I think that there are not many things to do
  Is the BIOS to control the fans.
  The fan table that includes different levels of temperature is stored in the BIOS and this table fan tells how and when the cooling module has to move on.

  > would like to have a permanent fan without stop and go operation. Do you think that I would have a better result if I update the Bios?
  I understand you very well, but the update to the BIOS would only change this situation, if the table fan would change too. You can try to update the BIOS but I put t think that the table fan has been changed in the new version.

• Can satellite M100-166 - I switch to 4 GB of RAM?

  Hello!
  I have a Satellite M100-166 (PSMA1E-01X00TPL) with 2x512MB of RAM (DDR2). I would like to upgrade to 2x2gb, but there is a problem.
  In the manual it says: "256, 512 or 1024Mo memory modules can be installed in two locations of main memory to a maximum of 2048 MB memory system"

  BUT:

  On the product page
  http://CE.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/supportMyProduct.do?LNG=20&service=CE#tab0;
  (hotlink doesn't work, search for Satellite M100-166)

  Kingston Memory Configurator:

  and even the product page for the Intel chipset
  http://www.Intel.com/products/Notebook/chipsets/945PM/945PM-overview.htm

  According to them, that it should support up to 4 GB. Thus, it supports 4 GB or not?

  SSM
  I am aware of the limit of ram / 3GB in 32-bit Windows, and I know that the second location of memory under the keyboard.

  Hello

  I think that there are different configurations of hardware M100.
  This means that different M100 supports different chipsets and that is why you can find various information on the upgrade of RAM.

  For me, it seems that the Satellite M100-166 could be upgraded to 4 GB of RAM.
  The chipset seems to confirm this value, it should be possible to get 4 GB of RAM.

• Satellite M100-180: where can I find drivers for Win 2003 Server?

  We bought a Microsoft Windows 2003 server. I have install then on our laptop Toshiba Satellite M100-180 PSMA1E-02Q00WRU.

  With the laptop, I found Windows XP CD and Express media player recovery CD Reanimator. No disc drivers there. May be dealer lost drivers disk? If that - where can I get new CD of drivers (I am from Russia, Smolensk)

  I try to download the drivers from the web (toshiba.com.ru), but they are very large (I have a dial-up internet). Then I download driver modem (4M). Installation of the works, but no modem appear after that. And no serial port too.

  I plug the USB-serial converter and install Standart Modem (USR external). Then I have to connect to the internet and try to download the drivers with windows update. No results...

  HEEEEEEELP ME! :)

  PS Sorry for my English :)

  Hello

  : D the dealer nothing lost! The pilot tools & utilities can be created in the Windows XP operating system that came with the laptop.
  With the help of Toshiba, you will find a Protect & Fix tab and the option to create a driver disk ;)

  Further, all the XP drivers are placed on the page of the Toshiba driver. But unfortunately, nothing for Win 2003 server.
  Maybe test it works for XP drivers also on Server 2003
