• Satellite A50 PSA50A - CPU, RAM, HDD upgrade question

  I wanted a laptop and my partner who is not real Smart PC (bless his heart) was released without my knowleadge and bought me a second hand laptop. That I really appreciate his kindness.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite model PSA50A - 7 k 047 number.
  I know a little PC, but not much I can change a hard drive and add memory and processor for a desktop computer but have little knowledge with laptops.

  This one has a hard disk of 40 GB and ram 240 and I guess is a Pentium 4.

  -What I want to know is how old is this model, and how much I can spend it.
  -What is the maximum memory, hard drive and it will take a Core duo.

  I've never had a Toshiba before but I heard that they are really good and reliable.

  Another issue is that I went into Device Manager and then system devices, and then the speakers, I found there was a driver that has not been installed. 82801DBM LPC Interface Controller - 24CC

  The reason why I ask is that I tried to plug in external speakers and they would not work, I couldn't find a speaker headphone and microphone port. I thought it's maybe because the driver above has not been installed. Anyone know where I could find and download the driver.

  When replying do not forget I am 50 years old and there are 5 years, I don't know even how to set up a browser, I taught myself everything I know now... I have 2 blogs and do a lot of marketing, but I'm not so good on the side of tech.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hi pauline28
  Goo gle is your best friend... ;-)

  I guess it is 4 or 5 years...

  I am only guessing, but the limitation of the ram upgrade should be 1024 MB depending on the operating system and chipset...
  Take a look at the job (it can be downloaded on the website of toshibas)

  all the drivers for this laptop can be downloaded from toshiba too.

  the upgrade of the 120 GB HDD can work but there is no guarantee, perhaps that you have updated the bios

  the upgrade of the central unit is the most foolish thing to do... why?
  OK the cpu that works in your laptop be cheap
  core-duo won't work in this chipset/socket... (not sure)

  but make sure that this device will do things like surf the internet ;-) not in water ;-)
  play the music, if the driver is installed
  and the hard drive with 40 GB of space will be sufficient, if you put all your cds top ;-)

  It may be a good idea to pay a specialist for this 20 minutes to check and install the proper drivers...

• Can not find the audio driver for Win XP for Satellite P305D-S8900 CONEXANT

  OK, I hope someone out there can help becouse thit fist.

  I'm about to return this laptop for Toshiba and go through another manufacturer for laptop that can be downgraded to WIN XP pro.

  I tried for a week to find a driver to work on this laptop to nothing does not.
  Corsica Toshiba says that 'the COMPUTER is DESIGNED for WINDOWS VISTA"as it means something and then they tell me to unscrew...

  So what I have is a Satellite P305D-S8900 and I need the audio driver for Win XP.

  Now, as far as I can tell, it's a driver audio conecant but I can't find one that work of wil.

  Any help; is greatley apericeated.

  Hey Buddy

  First of all, you can install all possible OS on your P305.
  It true s that the P305 has been pre-installed with the Vista operating system, but of course, you will be able to use other OS like Win XP

  Why you n t check the European driver Toshiba page and choose the show Satellite P300. It of similar to the Satellite P305 (U.S. series) and you'll find the Conexant audio driver!

  As far as I know at this time the 3.47.1.50 versions seems to be a more recent.

• Satellite Pro A300 PSAG9E - Win 8 upgrade questions

  I decided to update my old Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 PSAG9E-00700TTE Vista to Windows 8.

  After two tries he has been successful. Vista made me mad, and when I decided to give my son, I wanted to work better.

  Toshiba doesn't seem to be willing to support the old models. (over 3 years).

  I can not even find this model code in the lists, the site does not seem to recognize the serial number.

  This is why all the Windows 8 upgrade tools provided are not relevant.

  I met a few minor problems before, but the Toshiba Turkey never replied messages, even those concerning the new products when I considered buying a new laptop. In the end I went for an Asus, which exceeds my expectations.

  I don't expect all support this time either, because of past experience. But I still want to try one last time.

  Is there a way to get the material in this workbook in Windows 8?

  > Is there a way to get the material in this workbook in Windows 8?

  Satellite Pro A300 is not that win 8 supported means that you will not find to win 8 drivers for this series, but of course, you can use Win 8 on this unit.

  In some cases, the municipality of Win 7 drivers would be compatible.

  Toshiba tools like VAP (value added package) to win 8 can also be used, but we must look for a Win 8 VAP released for other more recent models.

  Touchpad driver can be downloaded from the page of the Synaptics driver also other drivers like LAN or WLan can be found on chip manufacturer pages.

• HP 21-2014: HP 21-2014 in a computer, Ram memory upgrade question

  Hello, I have a HP 21 2014 all in one computer. He now has 4 GB Ram memory and an AMD processor. I was wondering how it would be possible to increase the Ram up to 8 GB. Is there a certain number of model or brand of Ram do I need to buy? I looked a few things on Frys Electronics, but obviously I'm naïve. I really want to upgrade memory because I have some games which really lag on this computer, even if it is new, and I know it takes more may work properly. I wanted to see if someone can point me in the right direction. Price is not really a problem, I just want to know what would be a better job for this specfic HP model. Thank you!

  1 - CPU Intel Pentium M1.86 gHz, I can replace it with a dual core or core 2 duo of?

  I live in Romania, I'm not sure where can I make these upgrades. What is the nearest place?

  Thank you and have a nice day.
  Florin.

  Hello Florin

  Tecra S3 is old enough laptop model, and expect too much with upgrades, especially with the CPU. Of way General CPU cannot be upgraded and perhaps should not be upgraded. Each laptop model has a specific design and cooling modules are optimized for the specific hardware platform.

  1. so, for you it is important to have the laptop stable without damaging the hardware. Okay, just for the record
  Tecra S3 comes with separate Intel Mobile Pentium-M processors - [1.73GHz/1.86GHz/2.0AGHz (0.748-1.356V)/2.13GHz (0, 748 - 1.372V))]
  [/ 2.26 GHz (0, 748 - 1.404V)] and these processors operate at 533 MHz bus clock.
  Update CPU not is also not supported if forget it. The CPU you have inside is powerful enough. What you need is more RAM and perfectly configured and optimized operating system.

  2 RAM can be upgraded up to 2 GB and it is not the problem. You can use 2 x 1 GB RAM DDR2-400/533 1 GB (PA3411U-1M1G).
  This RAM is tested and works perfectly with your Tecra S3 of will be.

  3 disk HARD upgrade is also not problematic. Tecra S3 uses SATA HDD and you can improve it with more than 120 GB. I'm 100% sure that you can use 160 GB with no problems.
  In my opinion, that's good enough. Isn t it? ;)

  4. optimize the operating system. Disable all unnecessary background processes and your Tecra will be working perfectly.

  >.. .i don't know where I can make these upgrades.
  Do it alone. It is not so complicated. If you need help let us know.
  Good bye

• Satellite A100 PSAA2A - BIOS recognize only 1 GB of RAM after upgrade

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A100 PSAA2A. RAM is up to 2GB (2 slots).
  Now, I have 256MB + 512 MB (Kingston KVR533D2/S4/512) total = 768 MB (Samsung 256 MB DDRII 533FSB).
  It works well

  I want to improve my RAM. I've got Kingston KTT533D2 / 1 G
  I have 512 MB + 1024 MB = 1.5 GB

  I removed 256 MB to 1 GB. Now she has 512 MB and 1024 MB
  But BIOS recognizes only 1 GB (Windows XP as well). I changed my slot machines, a different combination made - always 1 GB (not 1, 5 GB)

  I checked each memory separately 256 MB, 512 MB, 1024MB - works well, but combination of combination and 512 MB + 1024 MB 256 MB + 1024 MB do not work.

  I did a BIOS upgrade and set version 2.3

  Any ideas guys?

  Thank you.

  I m not sure but I think the problem are two different modules. They come from different manufacturers have different abilities.

  If you want to, or more than 1 GB RAM, use should use the same modules. At a time when prices are cheap.

  But you can also test the RAM with special tools like Memtest86:

  Hello

  I just bought a memory of 1 GB of RAM to upgrade my Satellite 2 * 512 to 1 * 1024 + 1 * 512.

• I upgraded my card mother cpu ram and hard drive. I reinstalled windows xp home edition has got all of the updates. After 9 latest updates download and installtion went well, I restarted the computer, I get a blue screen and the computer restarts

  I upgraded my card mother cpu ram and hard drive. I reinstalled windows xp home edition has got all of the updates. After 9 latest updates download and installtion was going well until I rebooted the computer and go to page window showing all the icons that I get a blue screen and the computer restarts its self and does not stop. How can this be corrected?

  Hi KevinRy,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

  Unplug all external devices.

  Try to start in safe mode. If you can start in safe mode, and then do a system restore to restore the computer to an earlier point in time.

  Change the recovery settings to disable automatic reboot, if you are able to boot up to the desktop computer:

  1.	Right-click my computerand then click Properties.
  2.	Click the Advanced tab.
  3.	Under Startup and recovery, click settings to open the Startup and recovery dialog box.
  4.	Clear the automatically restart check box, and then click OK many times necessary.
  5.	Restart your computer so that the settings take effect.

  Now, when you are going to close and a fatal error occurs, you will see at least and it won't cause an automatic restart.

  Please reply back with the error message you get because it helps us to resolve the error.

  Kind regards

• Vs CPU Ram graphic card upgrade for Mac pro performance?

  Just after the crossroads to aboard the cloud to Adobe and seeks help on CPU Ram vs graphics card GPU.

  Material:

  • MAC Pro (early 2009) 4.1 2.26 Ghzdual core 8, 23 grams (5 x 4 g sticks and sticks of 3 x 1 G), 4 x 1 TB 7200 RPM int. HD (1 scratch drive), (no windows don't things here)
  • Graphics card Ge Force GT120 Machine has 64-bit capability, but normally starts in 32- bit due to old still used 32-bit apps.
  • Watch CS6 AE activity monitor uses all 16 son, works in 64 bitsand seizes about 10 Gig of ram to operate in.

  Software:

  • Running OS x 10.6.8. (Snow leopard) with all updates.
  • All major video applications: creative cloud (also have studio FCP 3 installed but just move to Adobe now on video works)

  I really like this AE & body use all threads, made in the background (which results in NO crashes (so far)) because my old 120 GT video card apparently is more stifling that it worked in FX in FCP 7 & 4 Motion.

  1. Q - can someone point me in the direction of how Adobe got the device to use all the cores and threads and run it in 64-bit, but starts in 32 bit?

  In terms of performance, (rendered in particular) I know I should go to the Apple/ATI 5870 graphics card, but as a veterinarian of fixed-income securities disabled, $450 is hard to find. I evaluated cards flashes, including those of macvidcards on ebay, but for used cards which are flashed, it gives me pause, especially when they are about the same price as the new price of 5870.

  So I am struggling with trying to figure out that the best shot for the less $$$, where the issue of the title.

  1. Is it more effective for video FX works to add CPU ram or (gulp) to upgrade the video card to 5870 card?

  Example: I can add sticks of 3 x 4 G in place and place existing 3 x 1 G sticks of ram for less than $200 CPU. A new 5870 card is $ 450 Apple. Approach that annoys me that most make speed plant put VFX work in AE CS6 or P Pro CS6?

  Sorry, I'm more than a little fuzzy on this, but hoping a kind soul will lead the way.

  Ken

  For After Effects, more RAM is better. For Premiere Pro, an improved GPU is more important. In addition, you might consider spending money even on an SSD, which is beneficial for both (for caches).

  Hi, Victor:

  According to the specifications, this should not be a problem...

  http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docid=emr_na-c03029649

  According to the parts list, there is only one model of system map, so it shouldn't matter what processor you install, as long as it's one of the reasons mentioned in the first link I posted.

• No sound Satellite P305D under Win XP

  I have a P305D S8900 initially provided with W Vista.
  To work, I needed to be able to have Windows XP Home edition to launch my programs.
  Now that I've upgraded to XP I have no other than a beep sound strong.

  I'm not IT 'tilted' any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  The Win XP requires SP3!
  SP3 contains significant updates that are necessary to get his job.
  Then first install SP3, then the audio driver.

  If the driver is already installed, you need to delete/uninstall it in Device Manager!
  After the new reboot, install the SP3 and then sound driver.

  Good luck!
