• Satellite P100-429: Question about upgrading the processor

  When I bought this model 6 months ago I got this one with just a T5500 1.66 GHz but since then Intel reduced prices 40% it is me the upgrade option.

  Someone at - any idea how I can update, the following list lists the T7600 @ 2.33 GHz compatible on the Bus speed and execution step by step. The only difference being the memory cache L2, 4MB compared to my old one of the 2 MB that will have an effect.

  Thanks for anyones help.

  Hello

  Upgrading the CPU is a bit tricky on laptops and more often than not desirable and is not possible.
  After the CPU overheating upgrade, it would be possible that don t cooling modules are working properly and the laptop.
  Why? Well well, the CPU new and stronger products, more heat and the temperature would be Monte. The fan table that is stored in the BIOS will not correspond with the new CPU and the cooling fans would not correctly work.
  In addition, upgrading CPU will void your warranty! It's very risky!

  Anyway, looks like you certainly want to upgrade the processor?
  So I would check the chipset installed on your laptop.
  Try to know the details of the chipset and Intel page for compatible processors research!

• Satellite P100-188: Question about upgrade Ram and CPU

  HELO everyone,
  I need a major update so I wanted to know if it is possible to upgrade the processor. I'm already playing Doom 3 ulra high with 4 X Ati and 1024 X 768.
  He sent me some 46 frames per second, with 2 GB ddr 533.

  Then I put the Satellite P100 - 188 T2400 T2500 or T2600 CPU and can I use ddr2 667 mhz Ram?

  Any suggestions how much performance increase if you upgrade hard drive 5400 RPM to 7200 RPM with 8 MB of cache?

  Thank you

  Hello

  The CPU cannot be replaced. But you can expand the memory with the modules:
  PA3499U - 1 M 25 (Kit of memory 256 Mo DDR2-667)
  PA3511U - 1 M 51 (Kit of memory 512 MB DDR2-667)
  PA3512U-1M1G(DDR2-667 1GB Memory Kit)
  PA3513U-1M2G(DDR2-667 2GB Memory Kit)

  DDR2-533 256 MB (PA3389U - 2M 25)
  512 MB DDR2-533 PA3412U - 2 M (51)
  1 GB OF DDR2-533 (PA3411U-2M1G)

  The maximum memory that you can use this camera is 4 GB.

• Satellite P100-160: Question about upgrade HARD drive

  Hello

  I would replace the internal hard drive to a larger size, but I don't know who is compatible.
  Here is a link to dabs where they have 5 hard drives, but not sure if they will work.

  Would be nice to get some tips on this thanks.
  I have a Satellite P100-160 that currently has a 120 GB hard drive, it is not enough!

  http://www.dabs.com/ProductList.aspx?&NavigationKey=11154&NavigationKe y = 50540 & key = 40970000 & CategorySelectedId = 11154 & PageMode = 1

  Hello

  I downloaded the user manual for this laptop from the Toshiba page and it says that you can use the 160 GB HARD drive.
  I think that he n t be a problem to use a bigger like 200 HDD or 250 GB.

  Sat P100 supports a SATA HDD controller and you should therefore use the HARD drive 2.5 SATA.

• Satellite P100-221: Question about the version of the graphics driver

  Hello

  I have the Satellite P100-221 (PSPA6E-013010RU).
  There is a new update for nVidia 7900GS card driver available (8.4.0.0, 27/07/06) in the Russian section of www.toshiba.com.

  But the number is still 8.4.0.0, as it was before.
  Do you mean the driver has not been modified too much, or is it a new revision?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Satellite P100 is a very recent laptop right now and the drivers have to be to date. In this case, I think that the drivers on the Toshiba page are even similar on your laptop. The date indicates only the version on the page.

  Anyway, you should always check the numbers of versions of drivers and compare until you install it on the device.
  Maybe the drivers are preinstalled and you don't need to reinstall the same version.

• Satellite U405D - several questions about overheating/disassembly/upgrading etc.

  Hello

  I have several questions about my old one by Satellite U405D-S2910

  1. when it works, after 2-3 hours (I run usually small programs such as safari, msn messenger and bsplayer) CPU gets 85 to 90 C (178-188). When I play age of Empires 2 (come on, its an old game) like 2-3 hours, it stops. What could be the possible reason? Furthermore, let me inform you about the climate of the city I live, 30 c temperature - humidity 25-35% (today).
  PS. CPU is AMD Turion 64 X 2 Dual-Core Mobile Processor. Model RM-74

  2. I'm going to disassemble my laptop in order to clean its cooling units (I think at the rate of overheating is this). It does seem like a desktop computer, so complicated. Ive seen a disassembly not to not (btw, its so difficult to spell dismantling :) I think Im going to do this. What are your suggestions on this subject? experiences could help me?

  3. my laptops is Ram 2x2gb PC5300 DDR2 667 MHz SDRAM memory, I want to replace RAM memory 2x2gb MACH XTREME DDR2 1333 MHZ CL9 NOTEBOOK. Should I do it? Fit my portable, stable work? any suggestions?
  PS. motherboard chipset AMD M780V

  4 - Finally :), should I use OS 64 - bit or 32-bit OS (win7)? what OS would you use if you were me?

  Thank you.

  Hey Buddy,

  1 + 2. I think everything is related to a higher internal temperature and you must clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. That is why it s not necessary to remove, just blow softly and soon the air through the laptop. You can buy such compressed air which squirts of each computer store I think and it takes only 5 minutes.
  You can find a useful article about this here:

  3. in my opinion he should forget this update! The speed of the RAM is related to the FSB of the CPU and as much as I know about Satellite U405D it s 667 MHz so it s already the RAM faster than you can have. Save your money and buy a larger HARD drive or in the best case a SSD that can really improve the performance!

  4. in my view, the answer is clear: Windows 7 64-bit.
  Only a 64-bit OS supports full 4 GB of RAM. ;)

• Satellite P100-429 of the BIOS and fan question

  The fan was quiet when the computer starts. But if the core temperature was up to 52 ° C, the CPU fan will be executed once at high speed as the Typhoon blowing about two seconds and then stop. It's really annoying.

  Is any version of BIOS P100 series the fan control support always turns the low speed?

  Hello

  the new version of BIOS is 2.40, don't know if it helps.

  Maybe you should talk to a technician for more information on this problem.

• Satellite T110-121 - Question about disk and hard drive recovery

  Hello

  I started to use my nice new Satellite T110-12. How can I create a recovery disc?

  Why is there that a common message on the vibration has been detected, HDD head has been moved to a safe position? Is there something wrong? I would return it before the week is up?

  Please answer, thanks a lot a lot!

  Hi LindaMon,

  > How to create a recovery disk?
  What about reading your user manual?
  You need a 8 GB USB key for the creation of a support recovery and preinstalled Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.

  > head drive has been moved to a safe position?
  Yes, that's normal and everything is ok with your laptop. Your HARD drive will be protected by HDD/SSD Alert utility which is a nice feature of Toshiba to avoid accidents of the head and can improve the lives of the internal HARD disk.
  But yoou can disable these notifications if you want. ;)

• Portege M400: questions about fan and screen buttons

  Hello

  I just received a M400 and experience a great tablet, but I have two problems.

  Fan seems to be always, no matter how hot the cpu or the performance.

  buttons on the screen, specially the control stick, do not work after some time of use, a reboot usually solves it.

  I tried to reinstall the drivers as suggested on other forums, without success. It looks like a driver problem.

  Any ideas?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Hello guys. Fans are running because of the temperature inside the laptop.
  @Nicknick1: you are using the joystick. In this case, I guess you play. All series device with a maximum performance during the game. It s wasn't that asking the fans to run all the time.

  However: I put t know how much standby power version you have, but you will find on the page of the Toshiba driver the V7.08.00 changed to 17/03/06

• Satellite A100-003: Question about RAM and recording model number

  Dear Sir/Madam,

  1. the first problem is that I bought the notebook of Toshiba Satellite A100-003 model. But when I tried to save the European web site of Toshiba with my serial number it says Satellite A100-011. I do not understand what it means that. But I do not know my phone model A100-003-PSAARE-0470257Z. The serial number of my laptop is: 17739127G

  2. Another problem is the European website of Toshiba and Turkey Toshiba official site (http://www.toshibatr.com/notebook_filter.asp?ktg=A100) says Rams are 533 MHz "2 048 (1, 024 + 1, 024) MB of RAM DDR2 (533 MHz)"but mine is at 266 MHz. "

  http://img510.imageshack.us/my.php?image=satellitea100003xg4.jpg

  I was wondering in Toshiba laptops of the Turkey has problems or handed in state something? I sent e-mail to the web site of Toshiba Turkey but they don't send me emails or information.

  Thank you for helping me,

  Hello

  First of all your registration number is not a 'problem '. Maybe it s just a small mistake in their database. When I registered my P200 registration reported me another type as mine was, but after a call to the hotline of toshiba told me, that my machine is listed correctly in the database.
  Don t worry, register just she.

  With regard to the RAM:

  Do you know why's called it 'DDR' ram? That means 'RAM memory' and the goal is to double the frontsidebus.

  In your case, that means: the REAL AND PHYSICAL frontsidebus is 266 Mhz, but because the flow is double you have a 533 MHz frontsidebus (532, 34.Mhz).
  CPU - Z and WCPUID are simply display the physical clock of the RAM, but the frontsidebus double the signal and then you pure and authentic to 533 MHZ.

  I hope I could explain something to you. ;)

• Satellite P100 - 429 LAN wireless has stopped working

  I had a satellite P100-429 during about three weeks, the wireless card was working fine until yesterday. Today I turned on the laptop, but I can't connect to my access point.

  In fact the laptop can now find any wireless network at all.

  Can anyone help?

  Have you checked the common things like a status of Wlan card in the device, the Wlan router configuration manager, etc...?
  Also check if the Wlan card switch is set to on. Further, you can try to fix the WiFi connection.
  To do something like that, he must go to "network connections", right click on the WiFi connection and choose repair.

  Do you use 3rd party WLan configuration software? If so, please check if the windows have configuration option WLan has not been activated.

• GPU fans to work on Satellite P100-429 (Nvidia) on Linux

  Hello

  I have a P100-429... and managed to get the GPU fan to work. As most of you probably know, we edit the DSDT in order to get its work under Linux (and these laptops). There, another fix that also allows the GPU fan work. Mine seems to be on low-speed all the time and the Nvidia display configuration application now the temp to be less than 50 c most of the time, so before he went up to 75 or more.

  In any case, I've posted my DSDT updated at: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/edit.php?manufacturer=Toshiba&name=Satellite+P100-429

• Bad screen refresh rate shown under Vista - Satellite P100-429

  Hello

  I have a Satellite P100-429. There are three weak, I install Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, but now the highest of screen refresh rate is 60 Hz. I tried to download the latest drivers for the graphics card, but this will not work and the computer also says that the monitor is called generic PNP.

  Before Vista has a 100 Hz screen refresh rate and monitor had his screen Toshiba TruBrite WXGA + TFT of own name I tried looking for drivers for the monitor but without success, someone can help me pretty please, I get headaches for the low screen refresh rate.

  Hello

  Have you installed the right graphics card driver?
  Immediately after installation of Vista, the operating system uses Microsoft's own common graphics driver.
  If you want to use additional graphics options, you need to install the compatible graphics card driver.

  But I want to clarify something. The LCD or TFT screens give excellent quality and resolution at 60 Hz.
  the Refresh on TFT rate simply won't say the same thing about monitors CRT.
  Response time, brightness of the Image and the contrast of the Image are more important for a TFT or LCD monitor like the refresh rate.

  Performance display and the quality isn't worst if it run on 60 Hz
  Therefore, I see no reason to change the refresh rate of 100 Hz
