Satellite Pro 6000 RAM upgrade problems

Apologies for multiple - originally, I put this in the Satellite rather than the Satellite Pro series Forum.

I have an old Satellite Pro 6000 that has 256 MB of RAM in it, and accordingly, as he tries harder sound, it is not the fastest machines.

I want to increase the RAM to 1 GB, which I believe is the maximum and 2 sticks of memory of 512 MB PC133 CL3 3.3V, which I think should work fine.

However, I tried to install either as a pair or separately, with the 256 MB of RAM, and when I put the memory in, the PC resolutely refuses to start. The lights of power lights, but it is only it works.

I put the original 256 MB of RAM in the slot, and it works fine.

I'm something wrong or missing something?

Any help appreciated gratefully.

Hello

> Am I something wrong or missing something?
Of course, you use the memory bad or is not compatible!

Initialization not after an upgrade of memory is a common behavior if the modules are not compatible or do not work.

You can upgrade the memory to 1024 MB (2x512MB) max and page Toshiba should run these modules:
PC133 512 MB (PA3108U - 1 M 51)
PC133 256 MB (PA3086U - 1 M 25)
PC133 128 MB (PA3085U - 1 M 12)

  • 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 Pro 4360 Ram upgrades

    Hello, this is my first post

    I have a satellite pro 4360 with 256 meg of ram can be updated at least 512 I have 1 spare ram slot if so, what is the ram details I need IE 144 pins etc.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    The 4360 Pro Satellite came with 64 MB internal memory and this memory in not removable.
    As you have already said, there is only a slot that is expandable.

    In any case... it seems that it of not possible to upgrade memory up to 512 MB.
    You can upgrade the memory to 320 MB (64 MB internal memory + 256 MB external memory). There is a limit.

    I found a very useful page that confirms this info:
    http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=5775&ft=m&St=3

    PS: I forgot to say that the laptop supports the SODIMM 144 pin PC100

  • Satellite Pro A120 RAM upgrade?

    Hi all

    I need at least 1 GB of RAM to run a program and I have 504 MB.

    I'm just wondering if you guys know exactly what I need because I have never updated anything on my laptop before. The model number is PASC1E-03X00YEN.

    I'll probably order via the WEB for all the tips on the suppliers would help.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    If you want to increase the RAM to 1 GB then you need another 512 MB module.
    As I know the laptop support modules DDR2 PC2-5300 RAM and generally the 512 MB PC2 - 5300 DDR2 RAM (PA3511U1M51) must be compatible.

    Please check this space of the forum:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/Forums/Forum.jspa?forumid=114

    Here you can find videos how to replace the RAM.
    I didn t find your Satellite A120, but the upgrade of RAM is very similar to all laptops.

  • Satellite Pro A100 RAM upgrade

    Hey

    I recently tried to upgrade the 512 MB in my laptop with an additional 1 GB from the internet.
    These two channels work individually, but when I try to start both installed, the screen turns off at startup but pc is ongoing execution and all the right sounds.
    Any help would be great.

    Thank you

    That made her really strange guy is that if a module of memory is not compatible or not supported then the laptop wouldn't boot.

    But listen buddy; nothing is impossible. Perhaps the two modules cannot run together and that's why this issue happens?  :|

    Usually it s recommended and recommended using two memory modules.
    In this case, you can be sure that the two s of RAM would run together without problem to 100%!

  • Satellite Pro 4600 RAM upgrade - single location seems to work

    Hello!

    I am writing again to my RAM problem.
    I know that my phone can cope with 500 MB of ram.

    So I bought more to upgrade 256. But only a module of memory is recognized.
    Both work well: when an another reversal of slot a slot two, there is always a recognized...

    I must add this: when I have added first 256 MB for the original 128 MB module, everything worked ok, (I got about 300 MB of ram)
    I really wonder: is the slot 2 dead? How can I know if you think that is another problem, you have advice...? I am a bit lost...

    See you soon!
    Sylvain

    You are right. You can upgrade the RAM to 512MG max.
    In housing, you could inert max 254MB modules of memory SODIMM 144 pin PC133.

    Perhaps one slot is faulty and you should check this.
    Simply use a single module and check the two slots one after the other.

    If the module will be recognized in the two slots this means that the two slots are okay.
    These cases, it is possible of s that the two modules may not work together make for the compatibility issue.

  • Satellite Pro 4600 RAM upgrade

    Hello

    can someone tell me if the max ram in the Satellite 4600 is 512 MB as stated in the manual, or was it just a limit due to the size of RAM available when the laptop was produced?

    any help would be appreciated

    Hello

    To my knowledge, you can switch the phone to max 512 MB.
    You can use 2 sticks of 256 MB set. It's possible!

  • Re: Satellite Pro A200 - RAM upgrade

    Hi all

    Don't worry I'm not here to ask questions on only 3 GB of RAM display in a 32-bit Windows system! : PEI

    I'm wanting to upgrade the RAM on my A200 and what I was wondering was what can I put with 667 MHz RAM? I know that the FSB of the CPU is 800 MHz so can not use RAM 800 MHz? I had a quick glance in the BIOS to see if there was an option to change the speed or on my desktop, but I couldn't find anything. If the speed of the RAM is locked and if yes is there a update of the available BIOS that will allow it to be changed?

    I hope this isn't a stupid question but thanks in advance!

    Daniel

    RAM with MHz more won't make your laptop faster. I'm not 100% sure but on the motherboard FSB speed is 533 MHz and Rams, you inside are at 667 MHz.

    If you can increase the RAM to 4 GB using 2 GB of RAM compatible with the PA3513U-1M2G part number.

    Good bye

  • In Satellite A105-S2236 RAM upgrade problems

    I'm working on a Satellite A105-S2236 for a customer. She has Windows Vista Basic - and did not come with 512 MB of RAM, so it is very slow. I went by Crucial and got another chip 512 MB for this computer - after installation, it shows again that 512 - I tried to change the chips, each chip individiually running into the two slots to see if 1 chip or locations did not work, and everything works fine - except with 2 512 chips - it shows more than 512 RAM.

    I spent some time on the phone with Toshiba - bascially for them to tell me that the motherboard is picky and will not recognize 2 different brand of chips of RAM. 2 chips are quite identical features except the one who came there is Samsung and the new is Crucial. I can't believe they don't work together.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    You won't believe me, but many people have reported the same issue with the essential modules. The best thing you can do is to return and buy products known and of good quality. If you want one, order the module of RAM Kingston. They will work for sure.

    Homepage of Kingston. You can find a list of all compatible RAM for your laptop model.

  • Satellite Pro 6000 - new RAM does not work

    Hi all

    New to this forum sorry if this was asked before, I did a search but could not find anything so here goes.

    I just bought a new RAM for my Satellite Pro 6000. When I install it nothing happens the laptop won't boot. If I put the old stick in no problem. The ram I bought is unb 512 MB PC133 CL3 and old RAM 256 MB PC133s. I think little small to read with these old eyes.

    I was told I might need an update of the BIOS but cannot find one for my laptop under 1.4 for the moment.
    Any help would be thank Lindsey

    I think that the new RAM is not compatible with the motherboard or laptop.

    The manufacturing of the new RAM you said does not for me so I would buy an another RAM, such as Kingston. Kingston makes high quality RAM and many users here buy Kingston RAM to upgrade its RAM.

    By the way: do you use the RAM or only the new? Normally, if you use two memory modules live, you must use it with the same specifications.

    The update of the BIOS, you can find the Toshiba site, but this doesn t affect the compatibility of Aries.

    Greg (french guy with bad English)

    Hi Greg

    Good decision. RAM and HARD drive can be upgraded without any problems. Many people think that hardware on laptops can be improved, such as on the desktop, but the design is completely different.

    There are also a lot of other factors that make the upgrade is not possible or very risky. Heat as an example. This is a common problem with laptops. Manufacturers keep all this in mind and the optimal hardware platform design that offers the best compromise between performance and protection of the equipment.

    Hello
    I don't have a model satellite pro 6000. PS600E-01NYE-FR
    1 GHz P3, 20 GB HDD, wireless bluetooth not running XP

    I understand that it is an old laptop but had been treated with great care because I got it.
    My problem is the following;

    Startup of the laptop is a route very well, but for some reason together and after no set amount of time the display fails
    a wot is visible on-screen is hundreds of tiny colored blocks, sometimes random horizontal lines
    but nothing is readable, at all.

    I tried to run a yellow one also using the video output external monitor, all appear the same.
    a computer display (although I can't check it out) to freeze.

    I replaced the heatsink fan as a precaution (using the new dough)
    the only solution I can find is replaced the ram with
    2 x 256 MB Sync 133 mHz module Samsung. This could be the problem or can anyone shed some light on this for me.

    Thanks in advance

    I am not a technician, but I assume that there is probably a problem with the video card. I'm afraid there is not much to do. You should contact the service and make them run tests to verify the functionality of the video card. If the card is faulty, just replacement will help.

    In this case, all required drivers are available and must be installed in the correct order.
