Satellite replacement CPU L500-214 - Intel HM55 chipset

Yes, I have read the info on not support replacing the CPU in Toshiba laptops and suggesting to change/add/replace only dvd, the memory RAM or HD disc burners.

My question is: is it possible to put a better processor in my laptop (chipset supports a lot) or is the computer limited by the BIOS (version 2.10) to not support that the CPU came with the laptop?

I tried to replace my i3 330M with i5 480M and i5 540 M, but the computer does not even start (not even BIOS, not even the screen).

Is there no work around to make it work with another processor chipset and support?

Would be very grateful for any help in this matter
Greetings from the Poland

> My question is: is it possible to put a better processor in my laptop (chipset supports a lot) or is the computer limited by the BIOS (version 2.10) to not support that the CPU came with the laptop?

The CPU usage may be limited by the BIOS too, but it would also be possible that laptop would be in relation to other processors supported by the chipset. This info isn't provided on pages notebook manufacturer because as you know upgrade CPU is definitely not supported.

However, I found the ARK chipset page and details on processors supported by the chipset
http://Ark.Intel.com/products/43183/Intel-bd82hm55-PCH

I think you have a good chance to get the laptop running with processors listed on the Intel site, but of course, it s just my personal opinion.

> Is there no work around to make it work with another processor chipset and support?
There is no other alternative workarounds or updates... either the laptop would go with CPU new or not, and it's your risk and peril :(

  • Can I replace the video card Intel (r) 915GM/GMS in Satellite M70?

    Hello!

    I have a TOSHIBA Satellite M70, with video card Intel (r) 915GM/GMS (256 MB) that is not working properly (it might be made of the mechanical shock or high temperature, do not know, but I'm sure it's something on the hardware). I reinstalled my OS (and then replaced by another), updated my drivers but nothing changes. Then appears a BSOD evoking the video driver files I try to restart it many times because the screen guard shutted down (in black). Now, the video card is disabled, and it works normally. I want to just replace it if it is possiblle. I said * TOSHIBA Satellite M70, Intel (r) 915GM / GMS *.

    Thanks for your answers in advance, and sorry for the mistakes (I'm not English)!

  • Need driver Intel 965 Chipset for Satellite L40 - 17U running Vista Home

    I have a new L40 - 17U equipped Intel 965 Chipset & Vista Home Premium. I'm not interested in games but I can't get the 'Accelerator' to work. If I download & install official drivers, the system still refuses to work properly. Fault code 12. What I'm doing.

    Hello

    > I can't get the 'Accelerator' to work
    May I ask what you mean with Accelerator?

    Normally if you take drivers on the Toshiba page everything should work properly. I can t imagine that this driver doesn't work correctly.

    So as he has already written to try to reset the BIOS to default settings.
    In the worst case, you must reinstall the laptop using Toshiba recovery disc.

  • Satellite A200 - CPU Upgrade possible?

    Hello

    I want to upgrade my CPU.
    Currently a T2080 is installed and I would like to install a T7300?

    Can someone tell me if this is possible with my motherboard?

    The mother Board has the following features:
    Intel 940GML/943GML (Calistoga-GML) + ICH7-M / U
    Portable ID model: Satellite A200-1AS (PSAE0E)

    Does anyone have a list with all CPU running with this motherboard?

    Thanks for help.

    Hello

    Have you read that some threads here in the forum on the CPU upgrade opportunities?
    Do this!

    Always is it that upgrading the CPU is not easy for example on desktop computers.
    The BIOS is always different and modified by the manufacturers of cell phones.
    So even if the chipset allows you to upgrade the CPU, there is a question whether BIOS would deal with this new processor. If these upgrades are always risky.

    The laptop uses the Mobile Intel 943GML Chipset

    To check what processors are therefore supported by the chipset:
    http://www.Intel.com/assets/PDF/datasheet/309219.PDF

    Here on page 30, you can find this:
    + All features supported by Mobile Intel 940GML / GM Express Chipset must be supported.
    + Chipset Intel 943GML Express unless otherwise stated below. +

    _ Support for processor + _
    + Intel® processor A100 and A110 on 90 nm process with 512 KB L2 Cache 400 - MHz +.
    + front side bus (FSB) support +.

    Then you should check what are the processors supported by Intel 940GML

    Hey guys,.

    I'm looking at buying a new NB10t-A02C mainly to work on Linux (Debian). I was hoping someone could confirm that this particular model uses wifi Atheros AR9565 chipset. Apparently, some use an Intel wifi chipset but I can't confirm one way or the other regarding this model of the Australian market.

    Thank you very much for your time & help.

    Is the complete model of the Satellite NB10t-A02C number: PU141A-02C03V
    Google gives a few hits about this model of Toshiba Satellite NB10t and it seems that this unit was equipped with the module WiFi Atheros (not Intel).

  • Satellite A300 - CPU & GPU upgrade questions

    Hello everyone!

    I have a satellite A300-1 to 9 (Intel Core 2 Duo T8300, Ati 3650, lcd WXGA 1280 * 800, 2 discs hard etc.) running Windows XP + SP3 + utility Toshiba etc...

    These are my questions...

    (1) can I upgrade the CPU Core 2 Duo P8400?
    (I know that T8300 and P8400 use the same socket)

    (2) can I put my screen WXGA (1280 x 800) with a WXGA + (1400 * 900) or WSXGA + (1680 * 1050)?
    How will this affect the battery consumption?

    (3) having the computer plugged (a/c power), when I close the lid, the computer goes into sleep mode.
    When I open the lid, the computer wakes.
    Unfortunately, the computer is running on battery power is not the case... I opened the lid and nothing happens,
    I have to press the power button for pc to wake up...

    can I fix?

    Thanks in advance...

    Satellite A300's newest model of laptop and I wonder how you feel about this hardware upgrade after so little time to use.
    In General, these upgrades are probably possible, but certainly not supported by Toshiba.
    In other way such radical update as a poster of upgrade is absolutely not logical for me. You probably know how expensive these parts are.

    In my opinion, should you sold your laptop and buy new with exact material you like to have.

    What about the last question? Please check all settings in the control panel and make sure that you have chosen the right option when the notebook is on battery or plugged in.

  • Problem of games in windowed mode complete with intel g45 chipset in windows 7 rc

    I just installed windows 7 rc on my laptop that has intel g45 chipset. my laptop screen resolution is 1280 x 800. When I tried to open the games like age of empires 2 and heroes of might and magic 3 (tried only these two games), they are opening in mode full-screen, but to the left and right of the game remains black window (the window is shrunk to the Center). These games work very well with the previous beta version.

  • Satellite L500 (PSLJTE) - Intel Centrino Advanced n 6230 does not.

    Hello

    I replaced the original realtek wireless card with an Intel 6230, but it does not work.
    After power on the wireless led on the front control remains empty.

    Windows (7 professional 32-bit) drivers install fine, but said:
    "hw radio switch is off.

    FN + f8 does not, in the bios wireless com sw is activated.

    The card is fully functional in another laptop (samsung r528 (same chipset))

    Is it all gace, or will there be an update of the BIOS for this?

    I agree with Akuma that it seems that the new WLan card is not fully compatible.
    Usually, the Fn + F8 activates and deactivates the WLan functionality and if it does not, then you will not be able to switch on the wireless LAN.

    Just a question: some wireless cards can be activated in the Wlan card properties.
    Check Device Manager-> card WLan-> properties-> Advanced tab

    But seems you'll need to switch to another card Intel.

  • Satellite A110-274 supports one Intel CPU T2050?

    Hi guys can tell me if the A110-274 supports a duo T2050 processor anyone or not...

    Thank you very much

    Satellite A110 supports up to a processor Intel Core Duo 2.16 GHz with 2 MB of Cache L2 and FSB 667 MHz.

    But in your case, I would not change the CPU because it costs a lot to and you get much more performance.
