  Upgrade memory

  I have a satellite M40X-230, most of the documents indicate that it is expandable up to 2 GB of RAM.
  On the underside there a memory expansion slot which will have a 1 GB SODIMM, giving me a total of 1.5 G bytes of RAM.

  Is it possible to add the other 500 MB. (I'm experimenting with Virtual Machines and data bases)

  In case anyone is interested!

  There is a module in memory of 500MByte located on top of the motherboard. Unfortunately this is mounted internally in the case.
  It is located below and slightly to the right of the center of the keyboard.
  However, the casting of the cover of the laptop cover electronics and so it is not accessible by simply removing the keyboard. the top cover should be thrown which also consists of removing the screen.

  Otherwise, the module is mounted in exactly the same type of socket than under the machine.

• Can satellite M40x-183 - I switch from XP to Windows 7?

  Is it possible to switch from Windows XP to Windows 7 on my Toshiba Satellite M40X-183?

  Hello

  Theoretically, you can do everything, but you know how old your laptop is? In my opinion Windows 7 isn't the first choice for good old classic. It of designed for Windows XP and you should be satisfied with this OS.

  In my opinion, Windows XP is the best choice for old books, that they are not designed for Windows 7.

• Satellite M40X-183: Impossible to install photoshop CS2

  I have a Satellite M40X-183. I tried to install Photoshop CS2 and it installs everything but the help files and I wait for hours complete the installation, but it is not. Before it took me a long time to set up but once I updated my toshiba software he showed some changes and installed more quickly but still stuck using the part files. It seems to install but it does not actually install anything this either fight the help files and I install Photoshop CS2 on my desktop from the cd, it works very well.

  I have similar problems with some other proggrams running.
  Is there anyway I can install photoshop? has anyone else had the same problem I have?

  Hello

  It's really not easy to say what can be the problem. You will be very happy if someone has exactly the same problem and can give you some explanations. I have installed and tested a lot of different software on my Tecra and up to now, everything works fine.

  Problem is that Toshiba is not responsible for the non-Toshiba software and if no one can help you try to contact Adobe support.

  Sorry, but I don't see any other solution.

  Good luck!

• Satellite Pro 4300 - memory upgrade problem

  Hello

  I know that the issue has been already discussed several times, but it seems that none of the solutions or suggestions posted earlier apply to my situation.
  I recently bought an old Toshiba Satellite Pro 4300. The laptop has a slot filled memory of 64 MB module of the system's total memory was 128 MB.
  Because in my opinion, the system has worked to slow down, I decided to buy an additional memory module. I bought 128 MB - module TOSHIBA PA3005U k and placed in the slot B

  I was very surprised when I found that, after the upgrade, Windows showed that the total memory is 192 MB.
  When I put the 128 MB in the slot module is and the old module of 64 MB in the slot B - the surprise was even bigger, given that windows showed only 128 MB.

  I first thought that the slot B is defective, but in this case, it would be impossible to get in the first place the 192 MB. Then I thought that the new module of memory was either defective or it was 64 MB instead of 128 MB, but this option is also likely, according to my observations. Furthermore, I checked with EVEREST software system and it recognizes the new module as 128 MB module, but does not see the old 64 MB module.

  The situation is quite strange. Does anyone has an idea whay happens?

  Kind regards

  Sebastian

  To my knowledge, the 4300 Satellite Pro can be upgraded to 320 MB max.
  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=5769&ft=m&St=3

  64 MB module which was fitted with your laptop should not be removable.
  So in this slot ONLY this 64 MB module could work properly.

  I know it's strange but the computer world is sometimes strange ;) you know :D

• Satellite S1800-204: memory upgrade

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba Satellite S1800-204 memory which I just try to improve, two sticks of Kingston, 64 MB PC100 144pin SODIMM (like the one provided with the laptop) to two sticks of Crucial 256 MB PC100 144pin SODIMM. The laptop will post more, and even if the power light is on it will not start. The screen remains black. The manual of user leads me to believe that it is capable of supporting up to 512 MB and I can not find all the features that say the new memory should not be working.

  Can someone help to solve my problem or tell me where I have gone wrong? I hope we have not bombed just from all this money for nothing.

  Spanky

  Hello

  Yes. I also think that you should check if your modules are compatible.
  I found in the official document that this device supports these modules:

  PC100 256 MB (PA3069U - 1 M 25)
  PC100 128 MB (PA3005U)
  PC100 64 MB (PA3004U)

  As far as I know that you can upgrade this laptop up. 512 MB memory SDRAM (2x256MB).

• Satellite U400-183 lower upgrade to XP - driver for the SATA controller

  Hello

  There is a blue screen during the installation of xp because the missing drivers (SATA controller).
  Could not find the driver, nor on the toshiba Web site on intels.

  Someone who can help? Thank you very much.

  Stefan

  Hello

  Satellite U400-183 seems to belong to the series of PCU44E. Right?
  The European driver Toshiba page provides the drivers for this model.
  You can find on the page of the driver for Win XP Intel Storage Manager and this package contains the SATA drivers.

  But look, man here in the forum, you can find many comments about the installation of the SATA driver why you n t use the search option?

  The best way to install the SATA drivers is the use of nLite.
  He tool free s (you can find it on the internet) and it helps you integrate SATA drivers into the Win XP disc!

  I did it and it worked for me

• Satellite Pro L10 Memory Upgrade

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro L10 Celeron M Processor 360 1.4 GHz / XP HE / 256 MB / 40 GB / 15TFT / DVD-CDRW / OneNote. I wanted to upgrade the RAM, and I noticed that in the manual it says:

  Before installing a new module memory 512 MB do not forget to remove already installed memory modules.

  Does that mean that I can not install a 512 MB module and more the 256 MB is already a total of 768 MB?

  Thanks for any advice,

  Luis

  Hi Luis,.

  The specifications of your laptop indicates that it can accept up to 1 024 MB of RAM. If you have 2 RAM slots, so you can use any combination of modules of RAM as long as you do not exceed the maximum quotes. Of course if you have only 1 RAM slt then you must remove the original 256 MB module before insert you new 512 MB a.

• Satellite A60-217 memory upgrade

  Hi, I have a Satellite A60-217 (Intel Pentium IV HT 532, 3.06 GHz), and I want to upgrade the memory by adding a 512 MB of currently installed memory (256 MB with 64 MB shared memory for video card).

  I tried to install a S3 + PC2700 DDR SODIMM 512 MB module, but the system does not boot to the top: it emits a long whistle blow and then stops automatically. If I remove the module, the system starts properly.

  The manual indicates the speed of the memory supported is only PC2100. Is this true? The module is maybe defective?

  Thank you

  Hello Stefano

  Of course, the added module is not compatible and makes trouble. I found the info, this compatible module PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51).

  Google a bit and you will find lots of information on the module with the PA3312U - 1 M 51 part number.

  Good bye

• Satellite M50-165 memory upgrade problem

  Hello
  I realized that I bought a model that is only sold in Saudi Arabia. This is the model of Satellite M50-165. I want to improve the memory, I bought memory from EBAY who said it works in M50 sieries, but he did not.

  I read all the manuals in Toshiba, tried to contact by phone, they said that they do not have this model.

  in any case, I'd appreciate any help in that matter, as I am looking to upgrade the system to its full potential, I guess 2 Giga.

  This description of the model:

  Model name: Satellite M50-165
  Model PSM50E-0NX02JFC number
  MP 740/512 / 60 G 54/14WBT/DS2/LM/W

  Please advice me!

  Hello

  you bought the bad RAM. You need DDR333/PC2700 memory for your machine (which is expandable to 2 GB). If you're lucky, then return/sell memory and buy a RAM with the specifications described above.

  If you still have some questions then just ask.

• Satellite 1800-814 memory upgrade

  I have a Satellite 1800 814 with 256 MB of RAM and have been looking for an upgrade of memory for a while. I used a critical technology for an upgrade of my old Packard Bell 6500 multimedia PC, but they could not help with my Satellite laptop.

  I have now found an upgrade to 512 MB at Offtek, who seems to have a good range of Toshiba of refoulement (2 x 256 MB modules). See the site:-

  http://www.offtek.co.UK/

  Their site States that the max memory for the 1800-814 is 512 MB.
  Anyone has any experience of Offtek updates before I shell out £131,16 Please? If I can count on the accuracy of their information and the reliability of their product?

  Kind regards

  Hello

  Looks like Offtek memory is right. And yes it's true 512 MB is the maximum that can use a Satellite 1800. But if your laptop is already 256 MB, you only need a 256 MB module.

  Good bye
