  Glenn,

  Personally, I would invest nothing in this computer that cannot be used in a new computer as well. He is 4 years old and the time is fast approaching you want at least a processor i7-920 + system, in particular with CS5 and imminent MPE. You have 3 G of memory, you can switch to 4, but gains would not as big and the overall investment is to a value of zero when you go to DDR3. I'd like to save for a new i7 system.

• Should I upgrade my RAM?

  Hello, once again.

  My TouchSmart 600-1050 came with 4 GB of RAM.  My PC runs Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.  I have primaruly my PC for e-mail, internet, word processing and use Photoshop elements 9.0.

  There is a real advantage to move up to 6 GB or 8 GB (the maximum supported on this PC)?  Or is it a waste of money.

  Thank you and happy new year!

  Howard

  Hello

  You can see a lot of improvement from 1 GB to 2 GB, a bit of 2 GB to 4 GB but more than that, you do not see the difference unless you use your computer as a host to perform virtual machine (s).

  Kind regards.

• Satellite S1800-100 is very slow - should I upgrade RAM?

  Hello

  I am running Windows XP with Service Pack 3 on a Satellite 1800-100.

  The performance is really bad, worse than when I first purchased and installed XP a few years ago. The current installation of XP is only a few weeks and I don t run a large number of programs in the background - just basically Avira antivirus.
  However, when I try to open Firefox or even explore also slow down the machine becomes real and it takes forever to open a program.

  I'm already looking for more RAM (128 MB only here right now) but also I can t remember the performance WHICH is bad when I installed XP for the first time.

  So I thought that maybe I should upgrade the drivers and installed some drivers of
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU

  But it runs more slowly.
  Does anyone have an idea how to top the performance of the laptop in addition to buying more RAM?

  Thanks a ton for any suggestion.

  Hello

  The upgrade of RAM would bring you even more performance. 128 MB is not a lot of RAM and it should be updated for Windows XP.
  As far as I know the laptop supports up to 512 MB of RAM and you need to pass it to 512 MB. Then Windows XP run faster.
  You need RAM PC100 with each 256 MB module.

  To improve performance, you can do many things. For example defrag your HARD drive, clean the startup folder and the msconfig, disable all services that you need in services.msc, disable Visual effects,.

• A1396 iPad2 very slow 64 GB with 9.1 - should I upgrade to 9.3.1?

  Hey guys, I have an ipad 2 A1396 64 GB. I have almost 30 GB of free space, however lately my ipad is really slow.

  Should I upgrade to 9.3.1? This will make it faster? Is there anything I can do for my lucky ipad? a program to set or change?

  Thanks in advance...

  Each update, apple publishes intends to improve performance and efficiency to provide a better experience for their consumers, so in my opinion the upgrade would be better now to improve the performance my advice would be to close the applications that you do not use and restart from time to time to clear the immediate memory.

• Should I upgrade to Windows 7 x 86?

  This is for my friend. It uses a Windows 7 Home Premium PC 64 bit, with Intel Core2Duo & 3 GB of RAM. He says that he is not able to make a good multitasking with his PC. He said that his PC slows down when there is that a presentation PowerPoint & Video Editor opens at the same time.  Must it install Win7 32-bit instead of 64-bit? Is that it gives more opportunity to multi-task?

  N ° down to 32-bit won't do anything to help at all.

  Video editing is usually enough RAM and CPU. The CPU should be enough (even if an upgrade would definitely help), and 3 GB of RAM is decent. But, according to its use, an upgrade of RAM might help considerably. It would be smoother multitasking, too. Adding more than 4 GB requires a 64 bit OS, as well, so it is best to leave this part alone.

• Upgrade of RAM for Satellite Pro S300-11

  Hello
  I have this netbook for two years now and I need to add more memory RAM, it has 2 GB and is capable of having up to 8 GB.
  I went to two local stores to buy a memory stick, but they are not able to find my netbook to their suppliers, so that they have no idea what memory modules could go well with my pc. I know that the installed RAM module is a DDR2 at 800 MHz. So, any module of ram with these specifications should work correctly?
  Another question is if my computer is able to read up to 8 GB or I have to upgrade the BIOS (I have not updated, so I have one pre-installed).
  Thanks for your reply and sorry for my English!
  See you soon!

  Hi manelfera,

  The laptop has Intel GM45 chipset and the chipset supports up to 8 GB of memory. This means that you can install 4 GB module in both memory slots. As you already wrote DDR2 800 MHz is the correct specification.

  Theoretically, each module with this specification will work, but I recommend the purchase of high quality of Kingston for example modules. I have good experiences with this brand :)

  Updating the BIOS is not necessary for the upgrade of RAM so you can keep the current version.

• HARD drive and upgrade of RAM for Satellite A200 1AE

  Hello

  I plan to upgrade my RAM and HARD drive.
  I am currently using a 120 GB SATA HDD and 2x512mb ddr2 667 Mhz (out of the box state).
  My questions are:

  [1] will a WD Scorpio blue work SATA II 500 GB HARD drive at 5400 RPM on my laptop? If this is not the case, what is the maximum GB for my laptop's HARD drive (if there are any)?
  [2] a 2x2gb ddr2 667 Mhz will work? If not, what is the maximum?

  BTW, the Specs are Intel Core2Duo 1.73 Ghz T5300's family Vista premium sp2 (preloaded) OS, BIOS Phoenix version 1.20, Chipset intel 945 (I think).

  Thanks in advance.

  > 1] will a WD Scorpio blue 500 GB 5400 RPM SATA II drive HARD work on my laptop?
  It should work since the SATA controller is not limited to any size of HARD drive.

  > [2] Will work 2x2gb ddr2 667 Mhz? If not, what is the maximum?
  The laptop supports Intel® 945 GM chipset. The upgrade of RAM depends on the chipset.
  AFAIK the 667 Mhz Rams should be clocked at 533 Mhz
  But you can upgrade it to 4 GB of RAM (2 x 2 GB)

• Satellite L30 - frequent BSoD after upgrade of RAM.

  This problem is almost identical to [this post | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=144540𣒜], but given that the response was too general and did not help, I want to provide more details about my problem and hope for a better answer.

  My L35 (i.e. American L30) came with Vista Home Basic and only 512M of RAM. It was slow, but smooth otherwise. The problems started after I upgraded the RAM to 2 GB occasionally a BSoD will appear, and the computer restarts after a second or two.
  Most of the time, instances of BSoD are not taken at random; usually, it happens when you watch a film or multimedia and online during the wake her up after suspend.
  Also, it happens much more frequently if an external monitor is attached. He does, connect an external monitor and watch a movie will result in BSoD with 100% certainty. My laptop has shared video memory, maybe it's a question here.

  The problem prevailed after that I installed Windows 7.
  Memtest86 + showed no problems with my memory
  Memtest86 covers all aspects of the use of the RAM?

  Is it possible that some problems may be overlooked by memtest86?
  Are there other tests of memory, that I could use, specifically to test the shared video memory?

  Not every hardware problem can be detected software.
  You have tested the RAM with Memtest86 +? Try using Memtest86 (no +).

  In the worst case, you must replace the RAM. Ask the dealer for a new computer. I m sure they will help you.

• Upgrade of RAM for Satellite Pro L300-1cz

  Hello

  I think you can use the modules of memory from different manufacturers.
  But you must choose the right with straight plug modules;

  As far as I know the RAM module should support this specification:

• Upgrade of RAM for Satellite Pro 3400

  Hello

  I own a laptop Satellite Pro 3410, it has pentium celeron 600, 64 MB of ram and 13 '' dstn display. I want to upgrade my ram, somewhere, I read that it can be improved with 256 MB, so that there then 320Mo. My question is now, what I have to use 2 pieces of 128 MB of ram or can I use 1 piece of 256 MB of ram. The point is a friend gave me a 256MB ram for PC laptop (pc-100) toshiba, I put it and it seems to work (win2k showed me the 320Mo compleet), but can it be problems, using this a big RAM?

  I hope you can help

  Katja

  Hello

  I think you mean a Satellite Pro 4310?

  Normally it only uses the modules of memory up to 128 MB. But if your laptop is running with this 256 MB module, there should be no problem.

• Qosmio F30-125 - how to upgrade the RAM?

  Hello

  I have a model PQF30E Qosmio and who seek to increase the RAM.

  I read that this model can take 2 GB max as opposed to the PQF32E which can take 4 GB.

  I have the standard 512 MB installed at the moment and when I open the back I have only a slot for expansion. Should I put a 2 GB upgrade in this slot I can not find a 1.5 GB upgrade or is it possible to delete the original 512 and replace with2 x 1 or 1 x 2 GB.

  Thank you
  Ben

  Hi mate

  What boarder said is right.
  The user manual provides information on the possible RAM upgrade and there is also an instruction how to put the RAM in the slots.
  Usually it s not difficult and can be done very quickly.

  View just the words to the subject of the upgrade of RAM max;
  It's material and limited to Intel chipset limitation.
  If you want to know how much RAM is possible then check your type of chipset and visit Intel for chipset details.
  In the datasheet, you can find the specifications of the chipset.

• Pavilion dv7-6b76eo: upgrade of RAM HP Pavilion dv7-6b76eo

  I created a thread really well here and received great help from @Paul_Tikkanen so if he or someone else could help me, that would be great. Don't know why I can't post a reply in this thread again. They either closed the thread or I'm blind. In any case, I have the HP Pavilion dv7-6b76eo and plan an upgrade of RAM. Currently I have samsung 2 x 4 Go PC3-10600 / DDR3-1333.

  1. I think go to ddr4, but what keeps me is some threads I have read saying ddr4 won't even in good physical shape in a ddr3 slot (which is my current) as well as this piece of info from Wikipedia:

  DDR4 SO-DIMM have 260 pines (instead of 204 pin DDR3), which are evenly spaced more close (0.5, rather than 0.6 mm) and are 2.0 mm wider (69.6 against 67.6 mm), but still the same 30 mm in height.

  Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDR4_SDRAM

  • 204-pin SO-DIMM (DDR3) have a single notch closest in the center than at 200-pin SO-DIMM.
  • 260-pin SO-DIMM (DDR4), 69.6 mm (2,74 in.) wide and 30 mm (1.2 inches) in height, making it wider than the DDR3 SO-DIMM, with one notch after pin 2 mm 144 (0,079 in.).

  Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SO-DIMM

  This means that a chip of RAM SODIMM ddr4 wouldn't even in good physical shape in the slot of my laptop?

  2. well, okay... If I have to make my peace with her and stay with DDR3 can I at LEAST faster DDR3 install i.e. PC3-17000 / DDR3-2133 because my current a PC3-10600 / DDR3-1333 is sorta slow sometimes?

  Thanks in advance and would really appreciate an answer to the question 1 and 2 above!

  @nematsvehclav

  I couldn't say with certainty.

  But I have yet to see a 16 GB memory for a laptop card. "Yet."

• I would like to upgrade the RAM of the Satellite A100-803

  Hello

  I want to upgrade the RAM of my Satellite A100-803, which uses actually PC2-533, at 4 GB.

  Can I upgrade to PC2 - 667?
  Do I need Dual-Channel?
  One advises on what brand or the best model to use?

  If I not mistaken and for what I could see around the internet, I should be able to switch to 4 GB PC2-667 and Dual-Channel should not be necessary. But an expert of confirmation would be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance,

  Best regards.

  Javier.

  Hello

• Satellite P10 804 will not accept the upgrade of RAM

  Apologies, this is it is a bit long and also if this question has been covered elsewhere here: I had a good nose autour and have not found something that seems to help.

  In any case, I had a Satellite P10 804 during these past years, I bought in the United Kingdom.

  Quite early in my time with this laptop, I upgraded the RAM. It was 3 or 4 years ago, when memory was not as cheap right now, so I bought just a single 1 GB module. P10-804 will take up to 2 GB of RAM.

  The P10 804 came with 512 GB as standard in two modules. My upgrade means I got 1.25 GB, which was in very good health. Everything was fine until the end of last year when the defective laptop; I followed the fault in module 1 GB of RAM. It was a bit awkward since I now live in New Zealand. However, the provider of the RAM was very professional, stood by their warranty, and we arranged a swap. RAM prices had fallen, so I bought another module of 1 GB at the same time upgrade the laptop completely.

  Now the problems really started. The laptop would not simply work with the new installed RAM modules. It would work with one alone, nor even less with my old configuration of a module of 1 GB and 256 GB module. Start and run for five minutes before a freeze; white screen with fans roar; blue screen; frozen screen normal with strange objects; No start at all. everything.

  Everything that works now is my original 256 MB module (his partner disappeared). This leads me to assume that I don't have some sort of hardware failure?

  1 GB modules are DDR333 SODIMM, CL2.5. This laptop will also have the DDR266 modules, and it has been suggested to me, lower speed might work. I can try this option since the RAM prices are * really * low now, especially if I get confirmation of this as a valid strategy possible.

  The laptop BIOS is updated to v2.00 (maybe?), and I also upgraded the HDD to a 120 GB unit (this works very well and is partitioned for XP and Linux). And from time to time I empty the fan.

  Any advice welcome. Thanks for reading.

  Reading your message, I came to the conclusion that this issue must be linked to the new RAM module and this module is malfunctioning or is not fully compatible with your laptop.

  The P10 can be upgraded to 2 GB, so you should be able to use two single RAM 1 GB modules

  So it must be a module problem
