Satellite U300 - 13 M - 4 GB DDR2 667 MHz RAM upgrade

Hello dear experts,

At the moment, I have 2 x 1 GB Samsung installed DDR2 of memory 667 Mhz strips.

I would like to extend the 4 GB RAM so I bought Kingston DDR2 667 MHz 2 x 2 GB KVR667D2S5 / 2G modules.

But the computer is not started.
It does not start with the single module or with two modules are installed.

If I install set of Samsung 1x1GB + Kingston 1x2Go, computer starts, but Widnows 7 32 bit see only 1 GB of RAM.

If I update the BIOS, will it work?
Or any suggetions?

Thanks a lot guys!

In my opinion it has nothing to do with the BIOS update. It's the compatibility issue.

As you already know that your laptop can be upgraded up to 4 GB and you use 2 x 2 GB modules.
2 GB compatible RAM has PA3513U-1M2G part number.

I checked the page Kingston and memory module with KTT667D2 part number / 2G is listed as compatible for your Satellite U300 - 13 M.

You can check it out here.

  • Satellite A200 - 14 d: 533 MHZ front bus 667 mhz RAM equipped?

    Hello!

    I have the following problem! I bought the Satellite A200 - 14 d and on the packaging and in the shop was written with 1 GB DDR2 667 mhz RAM.
    When it came time for the upgrade, I put Everest and CPU - Z to find out exactly what to buy.

    I was amazed when I saw that my FSB 533 MHZ. The strangest thing is that RAM is really at 667 mhz, but what for?
    Now I think that's not quite legal. When I bought this laptop, I thought that it is with 667 mhz and I never doubted because it is written on the box that this computer is with 667 mhz ram!

    Please give me some advice what do I do?
    Advanced thanks!

    > was amazed when I saw that my FSB 533 MHZ. The strangest thing is that RAM is really up to 667 MHz, but what for?

    Why is it strange to you.
    This is nothing unusual. Is that you can also use 667 MHz modules! But they will run at 533 MHz due to the speed of the FSB. As I see it s clear to you.
    Always it is that there are several A200 series and some of the Satellite A200 supports FSB 667 Mhz.
    But it seems that all mobile A200 were equipped with RAM 667 MHz modules and they are certainly better than 533 Mhz modules.

  • Can satellite A100-784 - I register at 667 MHz RAM?

    Hello

    I would change my modules of memory in my A100 - 784 (PSAANE).
    Can I apply 667 MHz RAM instead of the original (533 MHz)?

    Initially, I have 1 GB (512 + 512) DDR2 533 MHz. I put in 2 GB (1 GB + 1 GB) DDR2 667 MHz.

    Can I do it?

    Thank you very much for your answer in advance!

    Hello

    You can do it.
    The point is that the speed of the RAM depends on the bus (FSB) front.
    If the FSB supports only 533 Mhz then your modules would go only to 533 Mhz even if the modules support 667 Mhz.

    If you n t know how fast is supported by the FSB then install a tool of free diagnosis, for example; Everest home edition and check out the unique values.

  • Satellite A100-847 does support 667 MHz RAM

    The A100-PSAA9 (A100-847) supports the 667 MHz RAM? The FSB is 667 MHz, but the laptop comes with 533 MHz RAM and everywhere that I looked for upgrades of RAM I've seen 533 MHz for this model.

    Hello

    It should be able to use the Ram 667 MHz module, but the difference between the 533 MHz and 667 MHz is not noticeable.
    I think the 533 MHz module is great and you are on the good side, if you use the modules to recommend Toshiba.

    If you have Windows 32-bit instead of 64-bit so not all 4 GB cannot be used.

  • Satellite L30 and 2x1GB PC2 - 5300 DDR2 667 compatibility

    I've seen a few posts here on the incompatibility of the L30 and have 2x1GB PC2 - 5300 DDR2 667 modules installed. Apart from the demotion to 2x1GB PC2-4200 modules, nobody put in point a reason why this problem occurs.

    My Satellite L30-00100E comes preinstalled with 2x256MB DDR2 533 PC2-4200. My current BIOS is v2.10 latest (available on the website).

    I have a couple of spare 1 GB 667 modules of work (which has been tested as working). I put them in my L30 and tried a few tests using MemTest86. Essentially, these tests pass:

    1x1GB (any module in any accommodation)
    1x1GB + 1x256MB (any module in any accommodation)

    What does work is 2 x 1 GB! It will fail on the random test (test #7), and it always fails on what appears to be a random address memory under the address range of 1024 MB. I have yet to see a mistake over 1024 MB and this happens no matter what order the modules are installed in the slots. What I see is something like this:

    Address: 942.6 (this changes - but still less than 1 024 MB)
    Writing: 0x2cd48206 (this change)
    Read: 0x2cd48286 (this change - but the 2nd to the last value was released by 0x80)
    Diff: 0 x 00000080 (it's always the same)

    The Diff value is always the same and makes me think that it is a little be overthrown so that it should not be.

    Memory 667 MHz is now able to run at 533 MHz, the memory is good, and some combinations work 667, so I suspect that it is a BIOS problem. Maybe it's just get confused by the memory timings?

    What can I/we/Toshiba?

    BTW - I put t really want to buy 533 MHz RAM, especially now that 667 is cheaper. So, for now, I'm stuck at 1x1GB + 1x256MB RAM... ie a 667 with a 533 mix!

    Hello

    This is not the problem of BIOS!
    I also read several discussions on the problem of memory upgrade on L30 and all people have the same problem; the Crucial modules are not compatible or do not work!

    I have a L30 at home and I could upgrade the L30 with a 1 024 MB module. It was one of Kingston.

    As you say of the L30 is FSB 533 MHz it is therefore absurd to use the 667 MHz module. If the 667 Mhz modules are better markets than 533 Mhz modules, then I suppose that the quality of these modules is not the best.

    In general, the quality and performance of the modules without name is bad and I do not recommend the use of these modules for different reasons.

    Use the recommended Toshiba modules and good luck!

  • Can I combine DDR2 667 MHZ DDR2 800 or lower on the Satellite A200 - 1 MB?

    Hello guys

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 - 1 MB and my uncle also has a hp Pavilion dv6183ea
    and we are facing the same problem, the computer is delivered with 2 x 512 DDR2 667
    We have to increase the Ram but the Ram DDR2 667 is no longer available in our market.
    The DDR2 800 is available
    can I safely use the DDR2-800 on my A200 - 1 MB or use the combination of DDR2 667 with a new DDR2 800 with no problems on my computer or on the computer of the uncle?
    I have windows vista and uncle is windows xp

    Thank you

    Hello

    Usually, you can use modules of RAM and faster RAM module (in your case, DDR2 800 Mhz) would be clocked at 667 Mhz.
    But in many cases, there are problems of compatibility in many cases, the laptop will not start using different Rams.

    So I think that it of better to use exactly the same RAM modules to avoid these problems, but who knows, maybe you could mix without any problem, you will have to try this out!

  • Is it possible to use 667 MHz Ram for Satellite A100-233?

    I want to improve my laptop with an another 512 MB of Ram and I called several dealers here in Egypt & I can't find 553 MHz ram!
    So can I use 667 MHz instead of 553 MHz one?
    If not, can you advice me where I can buy it online?

    If you buy 667 MHz DDR2 SO-DIMM for your laptop, even though the memory will not work at the maximum speed of (667 MHz) it should work at 533 MHz

    memory modules are not designed to run only at their maximum speed; they could also work at a lower speed; usually at low speed they will also benefit from lower latencies (which is a good thing!)

    If you want to buy memory online, then you could try to http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=25123&ft=m&st=3

  • Satellite P200D-12f - can I use the 800 Mhz RAM memory modules?

    Hello!

    It has RAM 2 x 1 gb 667 mhz in it.
    So the qustion is: can I put 800 mhz RAM in my laptop? My motherboard supports 800 mhz ram?

    Thank you!

    GLIST

    Hi mate

    The speed of RAM depends on the chipset FSB!
    If the chipset would support 800 Mhz module RAM would you also with 800 Mhz.

    But if the chipset does not support FSB 800 Mhz then you RAM modules would be locked at the speed that is supported by FSB

    So you can use 800 Mhz but this makes no sense if the FSB is slower.

    You check the chipset properties!

  • PC2-5300 667 Mhz RAM for Qosmio F30-141?

    Can I use a PC2-5300 Ram on my Qosmio F30?
    I want to upgrade my ram and I prefer PC2-5300 instead of PC2-4200.
    On the toshiba homepage I didn't understand, but in corsair.com, they have a compatible ram research research for your pc or laptop and he said I can use ram PC2-5300.

    So maybe someone here can enlighten me please.

    Hi Reaver,

    I wonder if your machine is really working with a front end bus 667 Mhz. I mean okay: the RAM but really works with this higher FSB?

    Need an answer and some evidence on this issue. :)

  • Re: Satellite L300-147 how to install DDR2 667 2 GB memory card?

    I have the right part number to install memory for my Satellite phone but don't know how to do it. all the tips and tricks on how/where to open up the laptop and insert the memory card?

    Thank you!

    Chris

    Memory locations are generally accessible from the Base of the laptop.

    Find a door with a screw, remove the screw and lift the door. You should see two memory slots (with a free location according to the model).

    But you must make sure that your laptop can take 2 GB modules. I think that if you have a Celeron processor, the system cannot take more than 1 + 1 GB

  • Satellite A100 - 003 PSAARE - Ram upgrade question

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A100-003 (PSAARE) Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit installed and 2 GB of RAM (1024 + 1024 DDR2 533 MHz).

    I want to improve my system with 2x2gb DDR2 667 MHz Ram.
    When I use 2x2gb Rams, my system recognizes them?
    Or he will recognize less than 4 GB?

    Is there a link between the ram and 32 bit OS?
    What are your suggestions?

    Thank you.

    > When I use 2x2gb Rams, my system recognizes them?
    > Or it will recognize less than 4 GB

    You use the 32-bit Windows System. This means that your Windows operating system can recognize 3.2 GB of RAM max. It's max possible RAM for 32-bit systems.

    But as far as I know that it takes in charge max 2 GB of RAM. Has been mentioned in the page manual user 22 and 33

  • Upgrade memory 667 Mhz for Satellite U300

    Hello

    I have a new Satellite u300-11v and I was hoping to upgrade the memory standard modules of current 2 x 1 GB 2 x 2 GB ddr800 for a max speed of memory. However, after looking at intels site for specifications of the chipset for my machine (its got an intel mobile GM965 chipset) it seems that it will only support up to 667 mhz RAM modules.

    Reading a little further, I think that if I have a memory at 667 mhz bus it can only be reached through the module 1 x 2 GB at 667 mhz. Currently I put 2 x 2 GB 667 modules in the machine, the default memory bus at 533 mhz.
    I watched chipset specs of your laptop (945GM) while I was on the site intels and your in the same boat as me.

    Heres so the dilemma: you have just 1 x 2 GB 667 MHz memory to get this speed little extra memory or go for 2 x 2 GB to the slowest to 533 mhz to accommodate all these massive windows page file.

    For me, have family Vista premium running on a machine that can bring together only a bus 533 mhz memory with 4 GB of ram is not acceptable while I will now go back to XP pro which is not so heavy on resources.

    Did you really notice the difference between the memory 533 MHz bus and memory 667 MHz modules?

    Of course, there is a small difference in performance, but you will never get a performance gain by using the modules of 667 MHz instead of 553 Mhz modules.
