• Satellite M40-276 - memory not detected in the Bios upgrade

  Hi people!

  New kid on the block!

  I have a client with a toshiba Satellite m40-276. I've updated his memory to give it a little more to play with...

  Went into the bios to see if everything was OK but no projected additional memory. I removed the new and old memory and put in the new 1 GB module and restart the computer.
  The bios has not yet changed the size of the old memory?

  Went to windows and of course that the memory has been detected it normally?
  I added the other memory module and went into the bios again, but no change it?

  Windows, however, recognized that the two modules?

  His computer is the same bios to factory and has never been updated.

  My questions are... why the bios doesn't recognize the upgrade memory? It will help in upgrading the bios?

  Enjoy all the suggestions I can get on this issue.

  Thank you

  Generally, if you upgrade RAM using tested compatible modules, that should be recognized correctly.
  We do not know what modules you use, and I guess that there is a compatibility issue.

  RAM on Satellite M40 276 can scale up to 2 GB of RAM and compatible modules are:
  DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
  512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)
  1 GB OF DDR2 400/533 (PA3411U-1M1G)

• Satellite M40 - the update of the BIOS

  I have Satellite M40-184 and I want to Flash the BIOS with a bootable CD, but can't do it.
  I downloaded the bios file - 20070709161345.zip and extract the file, but it gives me error to run the file.
  I extracted the exe with rar and I saw an image file, I burned it but it is not bootable.

  I have not now what to do WHOW can I FLASH THE BIOS NOT BY WINDOWS?
  I read the flashing method, but it has nothing to do with the file that is downloading.

  Hello

  The driver from Toshiba site doesn't provide the traditional BIOS but only the BIOS that can be updated only running Windows OS!

  This means that you will not be able to boot from the floppy drive using the unzipped BIOS file.
  It s .exe file and should be conducted under OS.

  I think it should be clear now.

  By the way; the update of the BIOS is risky and if you use bad BIOS or bad update procedure can damage the ROM. module

• Issue of satellite M40-101 memory upgrade

  Hello
  Can someone tell me what type of memory can be installed in my laptop? Currently I have a 512 Mb DDR (PC-2700) installed and I've been thinking about changing it 2x256Mb DDR2 (so the double pipe should work). Is this a good idea? Will it work? And what specific type of DDR2 is compatible with my Toshiba?

  Hello

  As far as I know the laptop uses PC2700 DDR - Ram modules.
  You can upgrade the memory for max 2048 MB and these modules should work properly:
  PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 2M 25)
  PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 2M 51)
  1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-2M1G)

  I hope I could help

• Server PowerEdge R720: How can I find the memory bus speed DIMM installed, please?

  In the web interface of IDRAC7, I take the path of the menu equipment-> memory and see a representation of the memory installed on the server and all DIMMs (a mixture of 8 GB and 16 GB) are presented as having a speed of 1600 MHz. I * think * that some DIMMs are, indeed, more speed ones (1866 MHz), but they are reduced to the lowest speed.

  Nobody knows, if you please, a way to get a more detailed display of the plug exact DIMM (apart from lifting the lid, that is!)?

  Kind regards

  Richard.

  Hello

  If you go to the server in the left pane, click Properties > hardware inventory, you can expand the module information memory by clicking on the button "+". It should contain a lot of information on the module. It must list the operating current at the top speed and capable module speed down. You can also get the reference number of the module of this screen to view the file online.

  Thank you

• Satellite M40 - question on the BIOS update

  Hello

  I need to update my BIOS to be able to use a new stick of ram to 2 GB. Unfortunately I can't find an update of the specific BIOS on Toshiba website for the 265 M40, WXP with ATI graphics card.
  Which one should I install? M70, M100, 3.00, or 1.70, psm01, psm02...?

  Thank you

  Satellite M40 can grow up to 2 GB of RAM, and to do that you need BIOS update memory vivid but compatible modules.
  Toshiba recommended 2 PC2700 X 1024 MB (PA3313U-2M1G).

  What 2 GB module you want to use?

  That's all!

• Re: Satellite Pro M40: what memory modules that I can use

  Hello

  I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.
  I have a Satellite Pro M40 part number: PSM46E-00H002EN

  I really want to upgrade the memory, but I don't know what to do.
  I know I want two 1 GB ones but I do not know what kind.

  I looked and there seems to be so much of.

  Could someone tell me exactly what I want or give me a link to buy.
  I would be grateful rerally.

  Hello

  I think you should check this page from memory Satellite Pro M40:

  Memory for Toshiba Satellite Pro M40
  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=26119&ft=m&St=3

  It is said that you could use the DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200-PIN SODIMM memory modules and you could upgrade the memory up to 2 GB of RAM

  Good bye

• Satellite A300 - 1 MM-can I make the memory at 800 MHz?

  My TOSHIBA Satellite A300 - 1 MM has 3072 MB of DDR2 800 MHz memory, but the memory running at 667 MHz. is there a possibility to make the memory at 800 MHz?
  Given that my laptop came with ddr2 800, why not work natively at this frequency?

  Perhaps a future update of the BIOS will solve this problem.

  As far as I know the speed of the FSB is not editable and there is nothing you can do to force the RAM modules to work with faster speed.
  Same BIOS update will not help you change anything.

• Can satellite M40-231 - I upgrade the GPU (graphics card)?

  Hi all

  My Satellite M40-231 has an ATI Mobility Radeon X 600 SE and I would like to upgrade to deal with the demands of today's games, but also a new HARD drive, but the latter, I think that I can go as far as the 120 GB HARD drive.

  SUGESTIONS are welcome.

  TKS

  Sorry, buddy, but this is not possible!
  There are several discussions about upgrading the GPU on mobile phones and all the threads said the same thing that's not possible.

  The point is that most graphic cards chips are outside the motherboard and cannot be deleted.
  You must understand that technology for portable computers is not the same thing as the technology of desktop PCs and more upgrades are not possible.

  Which could be upgraded are the memory modules and HARD drive.

  See you soon

• Satellite M40-285 - CPU overheating after the accident with water

  Hello everyone,

  I have a Toshiba Satellite M40-285, and 2 days ago, my girlfriend dumped a cup of tea on the keyboard... The computer turns off after a few seconds. Immediately, I put the laptop upside down and disassembled parts. There was some liquid inside (especially inside the speakers under the keyboard and where is the DVD unit). Other parts (CPU, memory, wireless card, hard drive area) were completely dry. I have it with napkings and dry with a hair dryer (later I read that I shoud never use a hair dryer...).

  The turs laptop on one seems to work fine (only the first screen where it says toshiba remains more than normal long (15 seconds or more) before entering windows). But the problem I have is that the CPU gets overheated and the laptop shuts down after 5-15 minits of use. I'm getting attention via the RightMark utility I said "* Core overheating * ' and the temperature always between 45 - 55 c

  I replaced the thermalgrease but the problem remains. The CPU fan works (I think that the two speeds). The heatsink is very hot after the computer turns off (it burns my fingers if I touch)

  What could be the problem? * Is the processor damaged? Can be a problem in the motherboard? *
  I don't know what to don't know because is not woth the money to send it to the technical service, but I can't buy a new laptop now...

  Hey,.

  I m wondering that the laptop is still ongoing and no more parts are damaged. In addition he s very cool that you could fix it yourself and dry. Many people don t know how ;)

  In any case, if the CPU is overheating it seems that something on the assembly or the cooling fan is damaged and must be replaced. Possibly peut t fan run with the highest speed more, who knows.

  Of course, it is difficult to say what is the cause of the problem, but in your case I would try ordering a new fan and the heatsink too. The two parties shouldn't t be expensive and it seems that you can replace yourself.
  So just contact a service provider allowed in your country to order these parts. They can do this.

  Good luck and feedback would be great, I am interested on this! :)

• Corruption of the BIOS to the Satellite M40

  Hi all.

  I have an old laptop Toshiba Satellite M40 with damaged BIOS which of course does not start. TI powers drop down 3 sec after power, which means that it does not pass the test STATION. I understand various forum that it is not the competence of technicians ASP and I'm not ready to hear things like 'replace maother Board' of these guys.

  I heard talk about techniques that can reflash the BIOS in the CMOS memory using a floppy drive loaded with a version of BIOS.

  The computer is in pretty good condition, including a new 80 Gb HD and was working fine until I tried to update the BIOS. I think it should be fix and spend a few hours on it.

  Any ideas on the issue were greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  I'm afraid that you are ready to hear just a positive thing or what. Are you here to have the real discussion or you want to hear a fairy tale. You wrote in your ad that the BIOS is damaged. I guess that you know very well what should be done with pieces of damaged equipment.

  How you want to reflash the BIOS if your laptop is running in only 3 seconds. Please be serious.

• Question chart shared memory - Vista on Satellite M40

  I have Satellite M40-psm40 with ATI x 300 and my OS is Vista. The card has 64 MB of memory and takes 255MB with total of 319 MB of main RAM memory.

  How can I reduce it?
  * I checked the BIOS to see if can decrease, but nothing in the BIOS to change.

  Hello

  Bad news man. You can not increase or decrease this RAM graphics card!
  The installed ATI MOBILITY RADEON supports the fix own memory. It is not shared video RAM.

  There is no way to make the most efficient card.

• Can I increase the memory on my old Satellite Pro P100?

  I have a Satellite Pro P100 (P6PA4E-002001EN) with only 512 MB of memory and the desire to know if it can be increased and if so what memory should I buy and it is easy to open the machine and adapt?

  Hello

  You can increase the memory on this laptop amazing plu of 4 GB of RAM.

  RAM modules compatible that you can use to upgrade:
  PA3511U - 1 M 51 (Kit of memory 512 MB DDR2-667)
  PA3512U-1M1G (memory 1 GB DDR2-667 Kit)
  PA3513U-1M2G (memory 2 GB DDR2-667 Kit)

  Check the underside of your laptop and there should be probably set with a cover of Ram screw. Remove it and you will have access to the memory locations.

• Problem upgrade memory on Satellite M40-142

  Hi all

  I am trying to upgrade my M40 - 142 (win XP) with 2x1GB memory modules. the initial memory is a single unit of 512 MB. When I remove and replace with 2 new modules of the system starts.
  If I leave the original memory in the slot and add only a single module 1 GB system startup and total ram 1.5 GB.
  If I use a single module of the new memories, the system is not to start again.

  I tried to update the bios to the latest version but when I run the .exe is an error and I am not able to run it.

  looking at the specifications of the motherboard should support the upgrade of memory 2x1GB.

  Thanks for your help

  Marco

  I guess you used the memory modules live all simply not compatible.

  The laptop s RAM can be certainly upgraded up to 2 GB of RAM (2 x 1 GB), but you must use simply compatible and God quality modules.

  Cheap may be not compatible or defective.
