• Satellite Pro 2100 - upgrade - upgrade memory RAM

  Hello together!

  For your information:

  Upgrade memory today to 2 Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100 (1.9 GH, 256 MB DDR - RAM initially), both up to 1 GB, all fine and no problems.

  Wanted to just end rumors "only 512 MB all together" or even less.

  If you are looking for, don't forget to think of the specifications:

  DDR-266 (PC2100)
  DDR-SDRAM, SO-DIMM
  200 PINS
  2.5 CL

  concerning the frequency of the RAM, building shape etc.

  Greetings

  L0nestar

  P.S.: Don't think that a debate is necessary, thread could be closed...

  According to the specifications of the computer laptop Satellite Pro has two memory slots and can be upgraded up to 1 GB. It is very useful to have confirmation on the RAM upgrade for this model of laptop old but still good.

  Good day.

  Hello

  Upgrade CPU on laptops is not easy and certainly not possible.
  Why?

  Well, in this forum, you will find a large number of discussions on this endless theme.

• Satellite Pro A60: Upgrade CPU Questions

  I took my laptop apart before, and I remember that I was able to remove the CPU.
  My A60 is the lower part of the range as far as I KNOW, 2.8 ghz Celeron, 40GB HDD and DVD-ROM/CD-RW. I've since added 512 MB of RAM and a LiteOn DVD +-RW drive.
  What type of CPU would be a direct exchange?
  I was looking at my manual, A60 were sold with P4 3.06 GHz.

  I would be able to put in a 533FSB, 3.06 GHz in my laptop?

  Thank you

  Hello

  As far as I know the Satellite Pro A60 was delivered with these processors:
  Mobile-Intel-Pentium 4 processor - HT 518 (2.8 G), 532 (3.06 G) CPU, CPU 538 (3.2 G)
  Intel-Celeron CPU CPU CPU CPU 350 (3.2 G) 345(3.066G) 340(2.93G) 335(2.8G)

  So in this case, I think that you can only use these processors

• Upgrade CPU on Satellite Pro 2100

  Hello world!

  This time my question belongs to the CPU in my Satellite Pro 2100. Currently under construction in an Intel Pentium 4-M GH 1.9, my question is, wether I could built in a processor (more powerful sense) "superior". Have seen CPU type Intel Pentium 4 M up to above 3.0 GH. Of course, this is related to the FSB, and due to the fact that I don't know what kind of motherboard I have, I just want to know if anyone here knows the maximum.

  I know there is Toshiba Satellite Pro Notebooks with 2.2 GH Intel Pentium 4 M processors inside.

  happy to all boards

  L0nestar

  I remember well the Satellite Pro 2100 was equipped with 5 different Intel Pentium 4 - M s CPU
  1.7 GHz, 1.8 GHz, 1.9 GHz, 2.0 GHz, 2.2 GHz

  So, theoretically, you can insert a 2.2 Ghz Intel Pentium 4 - M CPU.

  But please don't ask me if it is really possible because the CPU upgrade on laptops is different as an update on the desktop.
  On some older portable computers, the CPU has been fixed for the mobo and it was not easy to remove it.

  That's all I can say about this case.

  Good bye

• A few questions regarding the hardware upgrade and the games on Satellite Pro 2100

  Hey,.

  I thought that posting this here because it's more about the lines for the games I could think on another topic.

  I'll get to the point... Basically, I bought a laptop from a guy that my friend knew. He barely used this laptop and didn't know anything about computers, and he tried to avoid as much as possible. So he got rid of this laptop for me for real cheap.

  Now I got it, I had expected either of two things with the laptop.

  (1) what I'll use it so I can sit in his bed and travel a little bit while having files, movies, music and internet access. (it wasn't my main idea)

  Or

  (2) it allows to play video games on it, or to update, so I have a better chance to do so.

  I was hoping to get for video games, mainly for my brother to use because his computer is lagging a lot while playing world of Warcraft. I was hoping that this notebook would give him a better experience for a while.

  But as I was installing the game on this, I noticed that the disk space is low, so I'm going to buy an external hard drive, so I can send files between the PC and the laptop, and I got an error message saying that the RAM was under "minimum requirements" for WoW.

  So I know that I got to level it with something big, but I know not what, so I'm not quite sure that this laptop will run the game at a decent rate. So I thought that I turn to a computer forum and ask.

  It's my laptop;
  [Satellite Pro 2100 PS210E | http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&BV_UseBVCook = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 45659 ie]

  This laptop will do the job don't you think?
  Or it will be better for simpler things, or less if I had the ram to 1gig?

  I don't know much on the laptop, and I'm not really willing to spend too much on fixing, if it's just a change of the ram, then it wouldn't cost much for than to upgrade around 1gig.

  Hello

  First of all, I must say that this notebook belongs to an older series laptop.
  It was equipped with the 1.8 Celeron CPU, 256 MB RAM, 20 GB or 30 GB HARD drive and a 16MB graphics card internal.

  What you can do is upgrade the RAM up to 1 GB (2 x 512 MB) and the HARD drive. But I think that the maximum size of HARD drive that would be recognized by the BIOS is 120 GB.
  I think that the laptop supports one IDE controller and it limited because of the 28-bit LBA HARD drive size.

  So finally, it is important to mention that you can not pass the graphics card because it s soldered onto the motherboard. Upgrading the CPU is not possible or very difficult.

  I come to the conclusion that you will not be able to play games of new generation on this machine. The hardware specs are maybe too low a few simple games would run on this laptop but I'm sure that other newer games will not run smoothly.

• Satellite Pro 2100: is it possible to upgrade memory 1 GB?

  Hi sat 2100 and looking at 1 GB but laptop reconises only 512 meg and wont work at all with 2 x 512.
  Would be a bios update help?

  Thank you
  Steve

  Hello

  According to this site about Satellite Pro 2100 memory, the laptop supports 512 MB max.
  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=7444&ft=m&St=3

  It is the maximum value that can be used in the notebook.
  The BIOS will not help because it is a hardware limitation of motherboard!

• Satellite Pro 2100: Question about upgrade HARD drive

  Hello
  ICH have a Satellite Pro 2100 with a capacity of 40 GB HDD. Now I want wo upgrate with a 100 GB or 120 GB HARD drive. Is it supported? Where is the upper limit of the capacity of support? Is there something I need to look out? Are there special attributes that am I looking for?

  prior to thank you for your support

  Hello

  It is very unlikely that the 100 or 120 GB HARD drive works.
  I guess that the BIOS will not recognize these hard disks.
  I don't officials documents found on the hard drives supported, but I think that the 60 GB HARD drive is the biggest HARD drive that works on the Satellite Pro 2100.

• Satellite Pro 2100 memory upgrade

  I want to update my sp2100 with additional 512 MB RAM, but the online manual and online technical specifications contradict each other.

  The online manual says (on page 1-3) for the celeron
  memory models max is 1 GB (CSD) and for the P4 512 MB (DDR) models
  Online status product specifications up to 1 GB (DDR)
  When I take a glance on the extensions page 'by 'model' on the site of toshiba 512 MB modules are available for my laptop.

  My laptop: SP2100 P4-1700/256 / 30 G, 15XT, CDW, LM
  I guess it's the same as 'Satellite Pro 2100 P4 - M 1.7GHz/256MB/30GB/15"/DVD_CDRW/L/XPP sort' since that looks like mine more

  Maybe 2 same-capacity modules need to be installed?

  THX in advance

  Same user as KinGcoBRA.
  @the mods here: Sorry, I had not noticed that I registered here. now, I have therefore no more double accounts. KinGcoBRA can therefore be deleted.

  The FAQ just taught me that 1 GB is the maximum, but still there is the contradiction the manual online...

• Satellite Pro 2100: card network wireless not recognized after upgrade

  I have a Satellite Pro 2100 ad I used successfully a PCIMCIA 802. 11b card wifi for two years.

  Studying the manual, I discovered that the notebook is "wifi ready" (it has a wifi switch, a switch wifi of Alt - F8, and a section of the manual).

  I opened a Bay and found out a mini-pci slot. That's why I bought an Intel 2200 BG wireless adapter and I put it inside, which connects the sons of two antennas, located in the Bay. Finally, I was ready to son mask 11 and 13, as suggested in many forums. But when I put the card inside, unknown electrically. It seems that the mini-pci slot must be Electric.toutes impossible. My Bios is not impossible, but it.

  In another Bay close to the mini-pci card, I discovered an empty shell for a chip. Is this an impossible chip?

  Hello

  As far as I know that this unit is about 4 years old and at that time the unit is tested with the wireless network card with the PA3212U-1MPC part number. This map has been tested, is also compatible and can be used.

  I put t know what is going on exactly in your case, but new material should be recognized and the driver must be installed. I put t know what you mean exactly, but can you please explain exactly the situation?

  The card is correctly recognized and installed in the Device Manager?
  You can use FN + F8 key combination to activate the wireless card?

• Satellite Pro 2100 is really really slow running

  I have a satellite pro 2100 I killed a friend.
  He said his brother gave him and that he had no idea what was wrong because he didn't have a chance to watch it.

  I put windows xp pro top and used the bottom of the laptop pro license key.

  but the laptop is really really slow.
  It may take up to 5 minutes for nothing I click to open up.

  the strange thing is the laptop works fine in safe mode, can open things like I should.

  but in normal windows mode, it slows down to a crawl and even crashes.

  I have trie all to my knowledge.
  I even uninstalled and turn off the graphics drive that I thought that he maybe, but he always does.

  I tried multiple copies different from xp pro and even tried a copy of vista, but still the same.

  He had 2 different lots of tried in ram, 2 sticks was new aswel. I tried 3 different hard drives and still the same.

  My thoughts are that the integrated graphics card is exhausted.

  can anyone else confirm this? Certainly this isn't a software issue because I tried a few different copies of xp and vista. IM about to bin it now.

  > anyone can confirm this?
  Don t think someone could confirm everything that is related to a malfunction of the equipment.
  Here in the forum, we can talk about problems and makers of disorders, but no one will be able to say with certainty what's going wrong here.

  First laptop computer is an oldie.
  The Mobile Intel Pentium 4 CPU, isn t a up to date CPU and in my opinion, that don't expect too much performance.

  I put t know how this camera supports memory but everything below 1 GB of Ram would be good enough to the smooth running of the laptop.

  However, given that the unit works much faster saving mode, I guess there must be a hardware related problem.

• Need administrator rights for the Intel on Satellite Pro 2100 speed step

  Hello
  I have a Satellite PRO 2100 (Pentium 4 1.9 GHz).
  I have a problem with the function of the Intel speed step, which reduces the speed of the processor at 1.2 GHz. But I have a problem: I can do this, if I use an administrator account...
  After starting, if I connect with a simple user account, the Intel speed step works... and the speed of the cpu remains at 1.9 GHz.
  So I would like to use this function with a simple user account, how do I do it please?

  Thanks for your help :)

  Hello

  As far as I know that this application is not shipped with the image of Toshiba and it s not made not part of the image.
  But I put t see any big problems. You will need to change your account administrator rights. In this case, you will need to ask someone the admin right to edit your account.

  The other possibility is to change the law for this software. There can be changes as by admin. What you can change in the Security tab in the program properties. Full control must be set to all.

  Then, it should be possible to use this application with your account.

• Satellite Pro 2100 - Exchange optical drive

  Hello!

  I m a proud owner of a Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100 (1.9 GH). Already done HDD Upgrade (as already said) of 250 GB and 512 MB RAM upgrade.
  Now, I want to upgrade the DVD-ROM in a DVD burner. I heard the fact, slimline drives are jumperset by the firmware, not the real riders.

  Can someone tell me weather I need to buy a "rider" master drive or a slave - drive "rider"? Or is it possible to replace the drive with a cable-select-disk?

  Toshiba-readers are always 'closed' to enter computers laptop toshiba? All the optics of toshiba notebooks readers bridge the same?
  Would be happy to receive some answers :-)

  L0nestar

  Hello Lonestar

  AFAIK all optical disk drives cannot be used with all portable models. There must be a difference with assignment of pins. Because of this, you must use only compatible disks. I have the same info as you. All readers are already "closed."

  I checked the user s manuals document. There are several compatible with your model of laptop sides, but none of them is DVD burner. It can be really hard to find the compatible DVD burner.

• Update on Satellite Pro 2100 display adapter

  Is it possible to upgrade my display on my Satellite Pro 2100 adapter? I currently have NVIDIA GEFORCE4 420 GO to, with the latest version of the driver 4.5.9.1.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Sorry for the question, but you do need to update?
  The graphics of the screen card or the color TFT screen?
  Usually it of not possible to update the graphics card. The graphics on the laptops card resembles a small chip that attaches to the motherboard. It s not the same device on the desktop PC.

  This device was shipped with a color 14.1 TFT "(1024 x 768) screen and a 15.1".
  In this case, it is possible to use this two TFT screens.

  Good bye
