Satellite Pro L300 - cannot use the 4 GB memory full

My laptop is Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 model: PSLBDE-003005AR

I upgrade my memory to 4 GB using 2x2gb PC2-5300 667 Mhz memory. When I installed the memory and I turn on my laptop the installation always pop up. When I removed the 2 GB of memory to do only 2 GB I spend on my laptop and it works.

I am using windows Vista premium 32-bit edition. I wonder why I do not work with 4 GB of memory. I installed the memory correctly, but it does not work to 4 GB.

> Laptop is a Satellite Pro L300 PSLB1A - 01 L 019. Lists of the Toshiba Site the maximum memory 2 GB spec however sheets provided with the laptop shows a maximum of 4 GB of RAM.

This chipset uses this device?
There are different L300 with different chipsets and different hardware components.
Some L300 would be able to support 4 GB and some are limited to 2 GB of RAM.

So if Toshiba says 2 GB are max so it's good and you will not be able to use 4 GB of RAM.

Welcome them

  • Satellite Pro L300 - cannot use Intel ProSet WLan tool with Win XP

    Hello! I have the same problem. I installed a XP SP3 and I can't use the * Fn + F8 * hotkey to activate the WLAN function on or off. Other Fn keys work correctly. The WiFi network also works, but it can be used by the built-in Windows. Intel ProSet or Atheros programs do not work. It seems "no wlan driver installed. The card is a Realtek 8187 B, downloaded the driver on Toshiba support original site. What can I do?

    > WLan also works, but it can be used by the built-in Windows. Intel ProSet or Atheros programs do not work
    If the WiFi works fine using the windows zero configuration then the WLan adapter is enabled and don t get the FN + F8.

    The fact is that your 3rd party WLan configuration tool doesn t work because your wireless network card is * Realtek! *

    Intel ProSet ONLY works with Intel WLan card and the Atheros Wlan configuration tool can be used ONLY if your have an Atheros Wlan card.

    You have Realtek so use windows own zero configuration WLan!

  • Satellite Pro L300-152 lose the power connector - how to disassemble it?

    I have a Satellite Pro L300 - 152 unit, which is out of warranty.
    I have a bad power connector, it has been pushed back and be dislodged from his seat or brocken cradel is within the computer.

    I am trying to remove the back to see if the power connector can be repaired or remains in its cradle.
    I removed all the screws and all devices, but can not get it off the computer.

    There seems to be something with the keyboard, which I took.

    Can you help me?

    To fix the power connector the whole notebook must be disassembled and you must have access to the motherboard. Disassembly procedure is not complicated if you have maintenance manuals and instructions.
    To have full access to the motherboard, you must remove all the screws from the underside and also all the screws under the keyboard. You will then be able to separate the notebooks and disassemble the upper.

    Tell me exactly what you have removed so far?

  • Satellite Pro P200: Cannot install Server 2003 - parity memory error

    I have a Satellite Pro P200 and to the work required to install Windows 2003 server on it, but all I get is an error message:

    -Hardware malfunction

    Call your provider of support material

    NMI: Parity check / memory parity error

    -The system is shut down

    I checked the memory and everything seems OK. Vista runs very well on it, and all memory is recognized. I tried different flavors of Server 2003, although all I need is standard edition. Anyone who has met this problem, or someone has any suspicion as to how I can get it operational.

    So, how tested the RAM? With Memtest? Or Prime95?

    I read in many forums that people work servers (no laptop...) SERVERS) that correctly work 1 year with ECC memory, then windows 2003 server gives the same error message you have.

    I mean if Vista works flawlessly and you checked as you say the RAM while there could be a mismatch which must not be for lack of toshibas.
    Maybe you should try a linux ubuntu server edition, which works great on almost * ALL * systems, even on systems with faulty CPU/memory (Ok, ok, not 100%, but it works, I got this case :))

    So, maybe you can try to exchange the RAM, but if you're still the same error then ask microsoft or try another P200, if they are available.

    Sorry dude, but I Don t have a lot of ideas in your situation :/

  • Satellite Pro S300 - cannot extend the desktop to an external monitor

    Hello
    I have a Satellite Pro S300 and it won't extend the desktop to an external monitor / projector, but it will clone the desktop?

    so far I have tried:
    2 instructors and 1 projector all do the same thing, will clone but not extend.
    Reinstall the latest drivers to display on the Toshiba site.
    Reinstall the latest drivers of change on the Toshiba site.

    But nothing worked, I even checked my S300 colleagues to make sure that I use the same parameters and their (of 2 other s300) extend and clone office.

    Has anyone seen this before and how solve you the problem?

    Paul

    Did you first remove the old driver before you install the new driver? If this is not the case, try to reinstall the driver again. Therefore, to remove the old driver, restart the computer, use CCleaner to clean the registry and install the new version you can find on the Toshiba site.

    More I would try updating the BIOS. You can find it on the Toshiba site too.

    I hope it works for you.

  • Satellite Pro 4320: cannot use PCMCIA card after update BIOS 2.70

    Hello!

    I'm using the Toshiba Satellite Pro 4320 (SP 4320). With the very old BIOS (first) version 1.0, the system has worked well on LINUX (Ubuntu) and Windows XP. So I found the update of the BIOS (latest version on the toshiba Web site). I did update the BIOS version 1.0 BIOS version 2.7.

    Now, I can't use any PCMCIA card.
    Everything works fine, but I can't use two PCMCIA slots.
    The cards will be recognized, but the system says that there is a resource conflict.
    (WLAN/WiFi adapter) PCMCIA cards worked very well with the old BIOS version 1.0, but now it does not work.

    Windows XP says: 'conflict resource' and Ubuntu/Linux said after typing dmesg: "pccard gives wrong answer, for example."

    Please, help me!

    Someone got an older version of BIOS?
    My idea is to 'downgrade' the BIOS BIOS version 1.0 or version 1.x.

    I have to downgrade the BIOS to at least 2. 6.

    Bye,.
    Martin

    Have you tried installing WXP again using Toshiba Recovery CD?
    I mean it's so old model of laptop and I can't imagine that Toshiba will offer this update of the BIOS so long if there is a serious problem with it.

  • Satellite Pro L500 - cannot install the Realtek LAN driver

    Hi all

    I got a Satellite Pro L500 Windows 7 pro with disk created from computers, cell phones, but now cannot install a Realtek LAN driver for the laptop.

    The installation of the driver software program doesn't seem to work properly all the time, tried several times to install with only once a realtek 'repair' option becomes available.

  • Satellite L855 - 13G - cannot use the Webclaim service

    Hello

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite L855 - 13G (PSKACE-04Y00CFR) in France last year, but this computer is already leading me in trouble!

    The graphics makes noise, one of the USB port does not work, and now, without any change of software, the computer shuts off after displaying a blue screen with "KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR".
    This blue screen just randomly (say about two or three times a day).

    I would send this computer for repair, but now I find something very weird: Toshiba has done everything possible to hide L855 - 13G!

    All first of all without result on the Web site:
    https://www.Google.co.UK/#q=%22l855+13g%22+site:Toshiba.com

    Second, the model is not listed in the support Center:
    https://www.Toshiba.fr/innovation/generic/SUPPORT_PORTAL/
    When I enter the serial number: no result. Also using the fields ' or is your product "model is not listed.

    Third, and better, I can't access the service of warranty claim for a Toshiba product for this computer: when I'm on https://weblord.toshiba-tro.de/Webclaim/ and I fill the serial number, the computer is identified (Alleluia), I have a green check mark for the status of the guarantee and "your product is still in warranty period."

    But then, I can't click next and mention "product not available: Unfortunately your product is currently not available" appears instead.

    So... apparently Toshiba is is best to forget about the Toshiba Satellite L855 - 13 G, but for unlucky enough to have people buy a what are the next steps?

    I would like to be contacted by someone from Toshiba to get an answer or a proposal to change my computer or at least fix it!

    Many thanks in advance,
    Best regards.

    > I would like to be contacted by someone from Toshiba to get an answer or a proposal to change my computer or at least fix it!

    First of all, I want to provide you with information on this community.
    This is a user to user community where you meant fans of Toshiba. You won't find any Toshiba here people

    Now some details about the fix for laptop:
    In case your laptop computer s hardware began to malfunction, you can contact the maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country in order to fix hardware problems.
    Here on this page of Toshiba ASP you can find all available worldwide FSA:
    http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

    Last but not least, he should know that the warranty only covers hardware problems.
    If in case the laptop does not work due to some software problem, the warranty would not cover the cost. This is why I would recommend you to retrieve the computer laptop back to factory BEFORE you contact the ASP.

    I hope this info helps a bit.

  • Satellite Pro U300: Cannot see the HARD drive during the installation of XP

    Due to the restrictions of the network must downgrade the operating system on a new satellite Pro U300. I am unable to run the XP + sp2 cd as it says there is no hard drive installed on the machine. I guess it's because I need 3 scsi drivers or third-party raid.

    Does anyone have these or know a place where I can get my hands on them? Or am I completely off the mark that you have another solution?

    Hello

    You need the Intel Matrix Storage Management utility for the management of your local storage, including the RAID support.

    On the European driver Toshiba page I found Robson tea for Vista package which includes the Intel Matrix Storage Management utility.

    The same can be downloaded from the Intel page for the XP operating system.

    I found this on the page of Intel:
