Satellite Pro A100: Question about RAM upgrade and warranty

I just bought my machine and Ive decided to install some more ram. No one knows if it will affect my Gurentee. I can't find anything on the Web site on this topic. Should I get a Toshiba to install official repairman or something?
Thank you

Hello

Please check you user manual. Usually, the slot memory must be placed at the bottom of the unit. If you remove the cover, you should see the slots.
Usually memory upgrade procedure is described in the user manual so you can upgrade the memory yourself and the procedure of upgrading doesn t affect your warranty.
But please make sure you use the right modules.
However, you can also contact Toshiba for the upgrade of memory.

  • Satellite Pro A100 - 244 PSAAC - RAM upgrade Question

    Hello everyone,

    I have Satellite Pro A100 - 244 (PSAAC) comes with standard RAM "512 (533 MHz)" and I replaced it with 1 GB (533 MHz)

    And now, I want to add 2 GB of RAM in the other slot but I couldn't find RAM 2 GB with bus (533 MHz), I can find only the Rams with (667 MHz)

    I just want to know if it is acceptable to add these two RAMS with these different bus "1 GB (533 MHz) with 2 GB (667 MHz).

    Please let me know if there a danger or cause any problem or if the computer would decrease performance

    Looking forward to your help

    Best regards
    Sammy

    667 MHz * should * work at 533 MHz, but his has not guaranteed to work, you will need to test it before buying the memory.

    Memory usually has a SPD table that tells the BIOS which timings to use at different speeds, but even if the SPD has a 533 MHz on the table, there may always be a compatibility problem.

  • Satellite Pro A100: Question about vertical resolution

    Hello
    I just bought a Satellite Pro A100 a few weeks ago. I'm pretty happy with it, with the exception of the vertical resolution. I'm used to the small fonts and large resolutions. Well, it seems that the A100 is not capable of displaying more than 800 pixels vertically. Is this true?

    How can I run a vertical resolution greater than 800 pixels visible?

    Best regards
    George

    Hi George,.

    I think the A100 supports a maximum resolution of 1280 X 800 on its internal screen but can support a resolution of 2048 X 1536 on an external monitor attached.

    I don't think that you will be able to achieve a vertical resolution higher than 800 on the internal display.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite M40x-149 - Question about RAM upgrade

    Currently, I have 512 MB of RAM and want to upgrade. The jury of the RAM has two screws, should I take this and replace it with an upgrade of RAM, or leave the original in and put the new in the slot on top?

    Thank you.

    Hi RareOz,

    The amount of RAM you want after upgrade?
    If you want a maximum of 1 GB of RAM for example, you can leave the original RAM in and buy 512 MB additional RAM.

    But as far as I know M40x supports up to 2 GB of RAM, and that's why it would be necessary to install the module of RAM of 1 GB in each slot. That's why you need two new modules.

    The specification is PC2700 SO - DIMM DDR - RAM.

    I'm looking to upgrade the RAM in my Qosmio G20, but if I buy little ram in a store and fix myself (replacing the old RAM) void my warranty? (it is still covered by the extended warranty now)

  • Satellite Pro A100: XP says RAM 192Mo, utility Tosh says 256 MB

    My recent purchase of an A100 was supposed to be with 256 MB of RAM - but XP does not see. He sees only 192 MB. The utility Toshiba said that there is 256MB. How to get them to agree?

    Hello

    Some of the Satellite Pro A100 units were shipped with ATI RADEON Xpress 200 M graphics card shared memory.
    This graphics card uses part of the main memory.
    As Michael suggested the Toshiba utility shows the memory full value and XP only shows the difference.
    As far as I know, you can change the value in the properties of the graphics card.

  • Satellite Pro A100 PSAASE: error Power Saver and LAN? After downgrade to XP

    Hello
    I have a toshiba satellite pro A100-psaase!
    I could not find this model on the toshiba site, so I chose the A100-psaas software.

    The laptop came with windows vista. I have it downgraded to windows xp, has chosen the psaas model so that I can download the drivers.

    I have 2 problems: the first is the eve of power software, it does not work. Start windows every time I get an error in the energy saver. I can not uninstall.

    My second problem is, that a windows pop who found a network controller and I can't find any software or driver for it. So in Device Manager, an exclamation point on the icon of the network controller.

    The funny thing is that I have internet and all.
    I can't find a solution to these two problems
    Thanks again

    Hello

    You have chosen the correct unit. The satellite Pro A100 PSAASE is the same model as PSAAS.
    I put t know why the power gain error appears, but for most of these errors occur because the tools and utilities have been installed in the wrong order!
    Seems that the installation instruction has been placed on the page of the driver Tosh! Read and follow the installation guide lines! Proper installation is important and necessary.

    The LAN drivers are also published on the page! There are 2 different versions. Try them both!
    The laptop supports a Lan Intel Ekron-R 82562GZ chip. Compatible drivers, you can also find on the Intel page!

  • Satellite Pro 4600: Question about upgrade RAM, CPU, motherboard

    Hello

    I have a SP4600 and because I love this machine, I want to give him the chance to stay with me - but unfortunately, it will only work by increasing its performance...

    Is anyone here has made some experiences in upgrading a SP4600 more than 512 MB of RAM?
    I know that this machine uses PC100 SD - RAM that is available up to 256 MB.
    But someone has tried successfully to put in PC133 memory? And if so, to were the limit?

    And more: what about the upgrade of the rest, for example, the CPU or the whole motherboard?
    Currently, his heart beats with 700 Mhz (Celeron). Would it be as easy as just another graft?
    Or would it be easier to exchange the whole motherboard?
    I've never done anything like this before and I'm not sure how the rest of the system can react on these interventions, in particular because the we-board-video and sound on board...

    I would be delighted if someone could give me some positive feedback on these issues...

    Hello

    You can only use the memory 100 Mhz modules because the FSB is limited to 100 MHz.
    If you use 133 Mhz modules, they will work only at 100 Mhz.

    You can upgrade the satellite Pro 4600 until 512 MB (2x256MB)

    Other devices such as the CPU or GPU are not extensible and the motherboard may be replaced only with the same motherboard

  • Satellite 3000 - X 4: Question about RAM upgrade

    Hi all

    I'm looking for more information on how to upgrade the RAM for my SATELLITE S3000 - X 4 (120 MB RAM, 14 GB HD I think!). Here's a little history...

    This laptop is about 5 years old, and I'm hoping to speed up a bit. I don't want to buy a new computer because she usually serves my needs.

    I emptied my hard drive files and unwanted programs. And I ran Jv16 Power Tools to clean the registry and minimize starts the process.

    It's always a little slow and if I am considering upgrading the RAM because I think I can do this for about £50. My questions are:

    What type of upgrade RAM should I look to buy? (This laptop have 2 RAM "plug-ins" or just one?)
    What is the size of RAM upgrade is the maximum an S3000 - X 4 could face?

    Thanks for any help you can offer!

    Hi Gabrielle

    He is old enough. I looked for some info, but unfortunately I n t have not found much. The device can use the 512 MB of RAM, and you can use 2 sticks of memory. I'm not 100% sure but I think you can use the module with tracking number PA3086U - 1. 25 M.

    The unit is not known to me but please check the underside. On most units, you can find coverage of memory.

    Any recommendation?

    It of not possible to change the graphics card. The graphics card is a small chip that attaches to the motherboard.
    This graphics card supports up to 64 MB shared memory. The graphics card gets this value of main memory if it s needed.

    You can upgrade the memory to max 1024 MB (2x512MB) and these modules should work.

  • Satellite Pro A10: Question about upgrade HARD drive

    I want a bigger hard drive, but xp home edition preinstalled. If I change the hard drive I don't think that the recovery disc would work to re install xp. How can I do this without having to buy a new version of windows? Oh, it's a portable satellite pro spa10.

    Sorry, but why you are suggesting that the recovery CD will not recognize the new HARD drive?
    The fact is that if the BIOS will recognize the new HARD drive then you will have no problem for the recovery and the installation of the OS.

    If you want to upgrade the HARD drive, you must use a compatible. Then everything simply initialize-towards the top of the recovery CD and the operating system will install on the new HD disc.

  • 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 C660-2DJ - Windows 10 Upgrade and lack of Chicony Driver

    Well, Toshiba said the Satellite Pro C660 2DJ is not able to upgrade Windows 10. This time I found statement opposite on other sites and installed it. I'm happy enough, because I use it. Ah there is always a but... the Chicony USB 2 Laptop camera is registered as a device, but with (!) in yellow showing no driver. I found a driver for this device, but under Windows 7 64-bit.

    It would be very risky to install an old original driver now that Windows 10 is fine? As a rider to this, I know now there are thousands of people who were sure that their machines would be upgraded to Windows 10 and they are desperate because very little work. Thoughts, anyone?

    Win8 Toshiba does not offer driver webcam more as the operating system uses standard Windows driver.
    I did not pass my S50 - B Satellite so I do not know if I have an identical problem on my machine.

    I'm really interested if another user of the forum has the solution for this.

  • Question about MSD + upgrade and migration applications

    Hi all

    I am running:

    TMS 13.2

    TMSPE 1.0

    The two co reside on a Windows 2003 server, pointint in an external box of SQL.

    We also organize TCX 2.3 on our Exchange.

    Now that our server guys have * finally * installed the service pack required on the Exchange, we are ready to migrate to TMSXE but also to upgrade the TMS and TMSPE.

    So we want ot go to:

    TMS 14.2.1

    TMSPE 1.1

    TMSXE 3.1

    In addition to migrate a Windows server 2008R2 TMS + TMSPE.

    I know the different individual guides to upgrade as well as the dependencies between TMS and TMSPE/TMSXE versions.  I'm hoping to do the upgrade and migration all in one and am hoping to get some tips on the best order to do everything.

    My first question - decomission the 13.2/TMSPE server 1.1 TMS, that I can install TMS 14.2.1 and TMSPE 1.1 on the Windows Server 2008, they point to the relevant databases and allow upgrading from there? Or do I need install the new versions TMS/TMSPE on the old server, first of all, upgrade the databases and then migrate?

    Second question - before all this, I run the TMSXE migration tool to extract the data 2.3 TCX, uninstall TCX of Exchange, TMS upgrades and then install TMSXE 3.0/3.1 at the end?

    As all this is running on the virtual machine I'll instant just in case.  Advice on the issues listed above, or general advice about these upgrades would be appreciated

    Hi Nick, IMHO, I suggest you first migrate your 2.3 TCX to TMSXE 3.0.2 by this TMSXE 3.0 installation guide, and then pass the TMS and PE later.

    Yes, VM snapshot backup option before any upgrade is fine.
