SD - Satellite A100 memory card compatibility

I have a built in my Satellite A100 standard memory card reader. But will he be able to work with faster memory cards? For example, it will read Ultra2 SD 2 GB memory card 60 X or is it only able to read maps SD old and slow?

Hi sikl

I didn t find any info about it and according to the specifications of laptop A100 can handle with SD cards 8 MB - 2 GB of capacity, but there is no word on ultra2 SD cards. Of course, you're the first person who asks this question. If you successfully test it please let us know.

This info can be useful for other members of the forum.

  • Satellite A100 - memory and hard drive upgrade

    Hi guys,.

    I have a Satellite A100-158 of the model code PSAA9E-01700VPT. It came with a 80 GB HDD at 5400 RPM S.M.A.R.T. and 1 GB of RAM DDR2 (533 MHz).

    I think that my computer slows to a crawl because maybe I thought the hard drive being old and low memory for recent programs and therefore upgrade the hard drive and memory.

    A Western Digital Scorpio Black 320 GB 7200 RPM 16 MB 2.5 inch would fit? According to them, it's running at 7200 RPM with the energy consumption of a drive 5400 RPM (marketing simply bad maybe).

    And a memory card Kingston 2 GB DDR2 800 MHz working? It has a higher frequency than my current ram, but then I guess he can withdraw maximum permitted by the motherboard? I guess that's 533 Mhz as my module memory factory. I can also buy a module 2 GB of the same manufacturer exact DDR 2 as well but 667 MHz instead... still higher than my current memory module.

    Thanks much for the tips... I hope that this will bring my A100 more in standards without going to a new laptop :)

    Hello

    Generally, a HARD drive with more RPM isn't a problem, but he needs a little more power and product more heat, but it should work.
    It s based on your application that you are running. For normal use, 5400 RPM should be ok.

    The modules of RAM with higher specifications are also no problem because it s downgrade compatible for lower speed (533 MHz).
    Kingston is always recommendable, I've never had a problem with these modules. :)

  • Cannot install VISTA on Satellite A100 graphics card driver

    Hi all

    I need help.
    I just installed Windows Vista Ultimate on my Satellite A100-326, (series PSAA9). This system has a graphics card from NVIDIA® GeForce Go 7300 with 256 MB dedicated memory that has worked very well on Windows XP MCE!
    The default graphics card driver does not work, so I downloaded the new driver for VISTA from Toshiba.
    Don't just install! I always get the following message: "the NVIDIA installer didn't find all the drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. The installation program will now stop. »
    We know what the problem might be?
    Did someone encountered the same situation?

    It's really frustrating...

  • Graphics - Satellite A100-313 card problem stops itself

    I have a satellite A100-313 and I use vista.
    Every time when I'm playing games, the laptop turns off after a while. It varies, normally have 10-20 minutes of play.
    And when I immediately turn on again, I get a black screen, but the computer is running. I have to wait a bit to get back to the screen to work.
    So, he goes to the top and goes to 1024 x 764 resolution (the native resolution is 1280).

    I guess it's a problem of graphics card (I have a Geforce Go 7600). I have already updated to the latest vista drivers available on the Toshiba site (the September).

    What can I do to fix this? Automatic shutdown normally only happens when I play games.
    Any help is appreciated.

    HM, delicate sounds.
    I suggest the following:

    Download the latest bios for your machine on the toshiba download site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    And finally and most importantly, check if your cooling system of your machine is not clobbed with dust. You can clean it with a can with compressed air to remove dust from the fan and the heatpipe fin.

    If you have any questions, just ask.

    Have a nice weekend

  • Satellite A100: SD card reader will not read the 2 GB

    Hello

    I wonder if anyone can help. I have a satellite a100-163, which according to the manual should read 2 GB sd cards. When I put one in the slot, he begins the wizzard found new hardware & said while these data are incorrect. 1 GB cards work fine.

    According to the card SD 2 GB notebook specification must be supported. Do you use high quality products or perhaps some anonymous cheap SD card? Please check if the card is locked.

  • Satellite A100-599 card to nVidia 8 series extensible GFX?

    Hello

    Is the last Satellite A100 - 599 extensible GFX NVIDIA 8 series card?
    If not, what could be done for my laptop, if I need to upgrade?

    Thanks :)

    Hello

    No, this is not possible.
    Laptop technology is different from the technology of desktop PC and therefore updates such as CPU or GPU are not easy or not possible.

    Especially the GPU (graphics chip) is soldered on the motherboard and the branch as a whole must be replaced if the chip of damages for example.

    If you n t want to miss the graphic performance, either you are going to buy a new laptop (desktop PC) with a stronger graphics card or you will switch to an external graphics card.
    But in my opinion this is no logic to use an external graphics card.

  • RAM memory card compatibility

    HP Pavilion dv6-1230ec

    Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello

    I would like to know if I could install in my memory card new of NTB (as described above), exactly "" Patriot DDR2 SO-DIMM 4 GB PC2-5300 SL "- features here: site manufacturer . "


    Today, I have the original parts in Notepad. I would like to replace the 1 GB card for the Patriot 4 GB card and have therefore 6 GB of RAM.

    The biggest problem in my opinion is, that the original maps are 400 Hz and the news is 667Hz.

    Is this possible?

    Thanks for the reply.

    Hello:

    Your model supports 800 Mhz chips. Why there only 400 MHz chips in there is beyond me!

    It's terrible. There is such a thing as a chip memory PC2-3200, but I have never seen one.

    But to answer your question, 800 MHz memory will run at the speed of the slower memory chip in the machine.

    This means that all 6 GB runs at 400 MHz, until you get another module of memory 4 GB PC2 - 6400.

  • Satellite A100-003 - card PRO/100 ethernet only work at 10 Mbit/s/s

    Hello!

    Several days back, something is passed to the network card * Intel(r) PRO/100 VE Network Connection * and now inaccessible in some State of work.
    Networking possible only in mode: 10 s/Mbps (Half Duplex) and 10 Mbit/s/s (Full Duplex).

    While in mode + 100 Mbit/s / s (Half Duplex), 100 Mbps / s (Full Duplex), Auto Negotiate + - completely the connection errors. The Test of the cable passes. Checked with another computer - all the work ordered. So, is obtained, card problem... Reinstall the drivers and updated connections tried, drivers (OS Vista Home Premium).

    Is it possible to do something?

    First question:
    Do you use the preinstalled Toshiba OS image?

    Second question;
    How did you test the network adapter and the speed? Did you use utilities and programs making authorities?

    The A100-003 belongs to the PSAAR series. Please note that the page of the Toshiba driver does not provide a special LAN Vista driver. Seems that the Lan card uses the own driver that was included in the Vista operating system.

    I would recommend to access the properties of the LAN card driver.
    This can be done in the Device Manager. There you can check if the options in the Advanced tab has been updated with the correct settings. For example, the option called optimum performance must be on Enable.

  • Satellite A100-159 and Motorola Bluetooth Headset HS815

    Hello
    I can not connect the headset bluetooth Motorola HS815 portable satellite A100-159.
    I disable MS bluetooth and installed the latest Toshiba Bluetooth Stack V4.00.36.
    It's my internal bluetooth device from toshiba:
    077B = "internal Bluetooth CSR (19.2) v2.0 EDR.

    (1) I turn on the headset HS815
    (2) the Bluetooth manager sees a device, opening a pop-up windows where says "authentication failed", indicates the MAC ADDRESS of the helmet and ask me for the PIN.
    (3) I type in the PIN code "0000" default, but nothing happens!
    the HS815 is not connected,
    the Bluetooth Manager doesn't list any any device.

    It is:
    This Motorola HS815 headset is compatible with the bluetooth Satellite A100-159 card?

    Thanks a million in advance
    Filippo

    The error message indicates that something was wrong during the pairing process.
    This is silly, but important questions.
    Are you sure you have connected your headset and no other in the range? Really, the PIN is "0000" and you tyed in properly (maybe caps lock was on to your keyboard and something else has in fact been registered)?
    Delete all pairing if it exists, and then try again.

  • Memory allocated for mobility radeon on Satellite A100-768 graphics card

    Hello, I am french and I have a Toshiba Satellite A100-768,

    Graphics processor / vendor: ATI Mobility Radeon X 1400 HyperMemory to 512 MB - PCI Express x 16
    Video memory: DDR SDRAM - 128 MB
    Maximum allowed size of RAM: 384 MB

    I am looking for the location of the adjustment of the exclussive of 384 MB RAM) I want to change this amount (in fact it is 384 and I want to reduce to 128 or 0 in order to keep only the 128 MB) I looked in the bios and I found nothing

    Thank you and excuse my English

    Hello

    It is not possible.
    As far as I know, you cannot change this value manually.
    The graphics card controls the HyperMemory and assigns this value automatically.

    If you want to have more RAM (main memory) and then update the modules of memory on your laptop
    2 GB (2 x 1024MB) are recommended.
