Satellite M70-131 - I want to add more RAM

• SL500 and I want to add more RAM

  Howdy.

  I have a new Thinkpad SL500, such as here: http://www.hemini.com/products/product_details.aspx?prodid=425737&cp=1&sc=1&sct=

  It has an Intel Core 2 Duo (T6670) 2.2 GHz processor and 2048 MB of RAM.

  I want to add more RAM to make it even more effective that I use a lot of programs, sometimes at the same time.

  I wish it have 4 GB, and what I understand is the maximum that it is supposed to be able to handle.

  Then what should I do? I buy a 4 GB of RAM and remove the 2 GB that I have now and install the 4 GB one?

  Or should I leave the 2 GB RAM inside and just buy a 2 GB of RAM and add together inside?

  In addition, the brand has a role? Wouldn't be brand of Lenovo? What other groups are good for RAM?

  They are all the other things I have to consider buying RAM. ?

  Thank you very much.

  If you use 32 bit os I works perfectly with 4 GB but system uses 3 GB. Add the next module that means you probably have 2 GB module inserted. You can simply put another beside it mounted origin. Check with everest, aida, cpu - z or any other things how many modules is placed on your motherboard and you have free banks.

  Hello Peter

  I don't really know what you are missing, but the fact is that on the Toshiba download page you can find the document Instructions of facilities. All you need to do is install all the things listed here and in the exact order. After having done that, everything should work well.

  I M70 - 159 and using the same document I installed Windows XP Home edition successfully.

  BTW: I'm not sure at 100%, but maybe you lack driver for 5 in 1 card reader (driver cardbus).

• Satellite M70-131 supports resolution 1920 x 1200

  Hello friends!

  I have laptop Toshiba Satellite M70-131.
  Recently I bought HP LP24645 wide screen TFT monitor.

  Unfortunately, my Toshiba does not support the required resolution of 1920\1200. He has only 1600/1200. Monitor driver is installed. Video card driver is updated. But nothing for good.

  Pls is there any meaning the BIOS update?
  I know that it is an official recommendation of Toshiba support, but I would like to know for sure if she will not solve the problem because I am not advanced user and this must be done in the case that I need to seek assistance from qualified people.

  Hello

  In your case, I recommend to check the user's manual if the 1920 x 1200 external resolution is supported by the graphics card.

  First check!

  PS: updates the BIOS will not help you to get this resolution if it s not supported by the GPU and graphics driver

• Toshiba Satellite L505-s5990 can be improved with more RAM?

  I have this Toshiba satellite L505-s5990 with windows 7 32-bit and intel core 2duo t6500 and I think that I cheated, well I don think, I was mistaken, because when I buy first told me it has ddr3 ram and there no, also told me that I could add more RAM, because it might be expandable up to 8 GB of ram, because there just 3 when I bought and which I have now doubt, well, you might wonder why I do not do something like back or something like that, well the reason is that, at the point where I noticed that it was already too late (warranty and return policy) had expired already, I didn't know anything this either on the computers, of course, so now I'm stuck with it and I guess all I can do is upgraded to what I want if possible lol! Well what I want is run several operating systems to achieve I think that my laptop I could run virtualization and I would like to know what equipment I need to upgrade my computer to do and if it supports the upgrade? I would appreciate very if anyone of you could help me with this.

  Wow.  All this without breathing a lot and you do not use Google? * smile * you should really get in GOOGLE.
   
  You have this laptop:
  http://www.toshibadirect.com/TD/B2C/retail-product.jsp?poid=452314
   
  You can easily get up to 8 GB of memory MATERIAL:
  http://www.crucial.com/upgrade/Toshiba-memory/satellite+L505+series/satellite+L505-S5990-upgrades.html

  Beyond that - well - what EDITION of Windows 7 do you have?  You have given version (Windows 7) and architecture (32-bit) but not editing (home edition Premium, etc.)
   
  In the end - it won't matter much if Windows 7 32-bit came pre-installed.  Despite the ability of the machine to have 8 GB memory installed and the material see - the 32-bit version of Windows 7 you have is not going to use it somehow.  Somewhere between 3 and 4 GB is the most he'll see/use/give you access to.  It is the nature of the beast.
   
  Also - if it came pre-installed you can just use your product key, download Windows 7 64 bits _ and install - because the OEM for Windows 7 licenses does not work like that.  You bought Windows 7 32-bit OEM and that's all you get.  Sales in the RETAIL of WIndows 7 license would have given you the ability to change as often as you wish between 32-bit and 64-bit.
   
  Where did put you?  Well in my digging around, I'm fairly certain that you pretty much exactly what I linked to the first.  Windows 7 Home Premium, 32-bit, 3 GB memory, processor 2.1 GHz dual core...  You can probably do a little now - virtualization might need to turn on a few things in the BIOS to really enjoy it - but it would work probably right now.  Take the free VirtualBox there and install the OS you want ot - but you probably will have to be rare on how much memory you give virtual machine (1, maybe 1.5 GB at max.)

  If you are looking to improve more...  You will probably need to invest in:

  -Windows 7 Professional or edition full 64-bit
  -the 8 GB memory referenced above
  -a larger and faster disk hard

  After that - well, it's a laptop.  Reality of what you can do starting to settle in.  The above improvements would cost you somewhere (from) about 350 USD.  Your Dual Core processor will probably hinder things - how - investment as a whole better system would be wiser.

• Can I add more ram?

  Hello.i have a laptop computer hp laptop g62 (a80sv I think) and I have 2 GB of ram (ddr3 elpida in 1 ram) I have room to add more ram (I want to add more than 2 GB), but I don't know if my laptop can recognize it.also I want to know how much it costs to buy another one.i am from Greece and I went to the store and he told me that it costs 70 euros but now I don't know if this price is real.do you know if it's old price or something? Thank you

  Hello:

  The best thing to do is to run the crucial memory free analysis tool, who will report what type and how much memory you can install on your laptop.

  Since I live in the United States, I will not be able to help you memory source or prices in Greece.

• Initial size (MB) and maximum (MB) size should I use to add more RAM to my memory?

  I followed the instructions on a video on how to add more RAM to your computer without taking it apart.

  I followed all the steps up until I came to the part in the dialog 'virtual memory '.  Where it says, 'custom size' you have to put the ' initial size (MB) and the ' size maximum (MB).  How do I know what size to put in this area?

  I looked up my information on my computer:

  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium

  Memory: 1.00 GB

  System type: 32-bit

  Now, while I was following instructions to add more RAM.

  my computer displays this information:

  in the performance option dialog box:

  In the tab advanced under virtual memory, it is said:

  "page for all readers file size: MB."

  In the virtual memory dialog box:

  for the C: drive:

  There's the initial size (MB) - white

  and (MB) maximum size - White

  What should I do in this case?  What would be the initial size and maximum size?

  Hello Palette,

  You talk about 'virtual' non-physical memory. There is a difference.

  UPN based on the amount of RAM 'physical' you have in your machine the ' virtual RAM should be of approximately 1.5 hour of Aries. You have currently 1 GB of physical RAM Windows allocates already 1.5 GB RAM virtual and, frankly, it is better to let Windows manage the virtual memory file.

  If you want to improve then install the physical RAM more. Your guide to computer manufacturers will tell you to what maximum physical RAM, you can install and what type it is. I admit that I have changed the physical RAM to many times so know what I'm doing, but, frankly, it's less of a hassle to change the physical RAM which play with virtual RAM.

  RAM memory modules simply slide in and are cut in place. Change the RAM in a desktop computer is easier than a cell phone, but you will get much better results increase the physical RAM that you would changing virtual RAM.

  Of course, this is assuming that you need in the first place of the increased RAM. I recently increased my physical RAM of 4 GB to 8 GB and hardly noticed any difference.

• Equium A100-303: looking to add more RAM

  Hello

  I recently bought a laptop equium A100-303 and am lookin to add more RAM. I was just wondering if it should be buffered or non-buffered or is it important?

  I currently have 1 GB of ram (512 + 512 MB as it is a dual core processor) and I'm looking to move to 2 GB (1024 + 1024). I know that the guy is PC4200, 200 pin SODIMM.

  Also where would be the cheepest place to buy these? Thank you.

  Hello

  > just wondering if it should be buffered or non-buffered or is it important

  Well, Toshiba has recommended using own memory as PA3411U-2M1G modules, but I put t find any information if the module supports ECC (means stored stamped) or Non - ECC (means not stamped)
  To my knowledge, the buffer ECC is about 30% slower than Non - ECC modules.

  He name of your choice what you will buy, but I would recommend purchasing a brand s module.
  I know modules without name are cheaper brand modules are much faster and performance, but the quality is better in the form of modules without name.

  So googel a bit and you will find many offers online. Simply compare prices

• I can add more ram to my dimension E510

  I was told that I needed more RAM to run my games.  CPU works real slow and all the time.  I have Windows XP Service Pack 3 in series.  My Dell is 6 years old and don't me you have confidence to buy another because of complications related to the death of my son, so I'm stuck with this one.  Please help with possibility to add more RAM for this 6 year old machine.  Thanks may Stevens

  We don't know how much memory you have, but this system can accommodate 4GB.

  You can read the manual of your system here:

  http://support.Dell.com/support/eDOCS/systems/dim5150/en/OM/WD846A02.PDF

  A popular place to buy memory and have your system checked to see what you have now and what you may need is to use the scanner found here:

  http://www.crucial.com/

  Depending on what game you play, it can do not even work on your system (optimal).  Your system meet or exceed the requirements of game?

  If you are unsure of what you have right now, follow these steps (we can watch your video driver too):

  Click Start, run and enter in the box:

  Msinfo32

  Click OK, and when the system info summary appears, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy (Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) the information back here.

  For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all, copy and then paste the information here.

  There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete the pasted information.

  This will minimize back Q & A and eliminate guesswork.
