• Upgrade of RAM for Inspiron 1200

  Hi, just recently got my wife back from the shop, the HDD Inspiron is dead so had to install a new hard drive. Highly recommend the model 120 GB Seagate Momentus 5700.1 from Tigerdirect.com, given this system a new lease of life.

  My question now is, I know the Dell specs say that this machine cannot have 1 024 MB of RAM however, I've heard rumors of Examiners of the 1200 saw 2 DDR slots and be able to take 256 existing module and the module above 1024, so my question is this, the 1200 there really two slots dimm and if she could even take up to 2 GB of RAM, or they're just a myth?

  
  

• The upgrade disk hard inspiron 1520

  I would spend my hard drive to a 7200, but I was wondering if my inspiron 1520 support Sata-300, or should I take a sata-150. The reason why I want to upgrade is that I have use multiple VMWares on the same machine and do a lot of multiprocessing.

  Also, I was wondering what it does to my contract of den of accidental damage, what happens if I bought the hard drive from a 3rd party vendor?

  Thank you

  It is the manufacturer of the equipment, not Microsoft, to write
  and make available to download these drivers. Especially if your
  equipment is older, it is quite possible that the manufacturer decides
  that he is not worth his time and effort to develop drivers for
  equipment he sells is no longer.
  Check with the manufacturer to see if they will provide a driver, but
  Be aware that they may not yet have the answer for you.

  or should I reintall windows7 in my system.

  In my opinion, unless you have a spare computer to install it, and
  enjoy software testing and reports bugs to Microsoft,
  install the software before it was dismissed is looking for trouble.
  Yes, you can install the test version, but for almost everyone I
  strongly advise against cela and wait until it is
  out.

• Backlight of the Inspiron 1520 is recently malfunction

  I have searched these forums and have come to the such that a defective backlight may require a new inverter Board or a new lamp. I had my laptop (inspiron) 1520 less than a year (and I myself only the standard warranty 1 year) so it's me angry a lot and I hope that there is another difficulty. I know that the LCD works cause I can see the screen faintly. Another thing is that I can "throw" the backlight by closing the display close then open cover it, but this does not work all the time and never lasts. The backlight going awhile, I noticed a few initial flickers and dies again. What should I do? Are there qualified technicians who can do other than Dell inverter/bulb replacement?

  
  

• Upgrade the HDD on the Satellite U200

  3 months ago I bought a Toshiba SATELLITE PRO U200 Jarir Bookstore in Saudi Arabia and I now want to move the HDD of 80 GB to 160 GB.
  However, I note that 1.46 GB the drive hard EISA is partitioned and is not assigned a drive letter. I guess that's the operating system or something like the laptop came preloaded with Windows Vista Business.
  I have the DVD of restoration and would normally just mount the new drive and boot from the DVD following the same procedure as a normal PC. But I can't copy the EISA partition on the new disk. How to pass on the new disk?

  Hello

  Why not to duplicate the entire HARD drive on the new. There are enough programs fulfil-> www.ubcd4win.com.

  Otherwise just install your new HARD drive in your machine, perform a restore of the system on your new HARD drive, copy your files on it and that's all. Don t worry about the partition, if it s on your old HARD drive and restoring the system should probably create it on the new hard drive.

  You won´t know until you've tried it. :)

  Please give some feedback after your restored your system, would be interesting to know if the recovery has created a new partition "EISA".

• Upgrade the HDD in Equium M50-192

  Hi all

  I have a laptop Equium M50-192 with the HDD 60 GB MK6021GAS inside.
  Does anyone know if I can improve it with the hard disk of 120 GB MK1646GSX.

  I found the site http://www.storage.toshiba.eu and I checked the two discs; but I don't know if the MK1646GSX disk has a compatible interface type.
  I am confused about the differences between ATAPI/IDE (60 GB MK6021GAS) and Serial ATA (120 GB MK1646GSX).

  Basically can anyone tell me if the 120 GB MK1646GSX will work instead of the 60 GB MK6021GAS?

  Any help gratefully received.

  Zoe

  Hello

  There is a big difference between the IDE HDD and the SATA HDD interface!

  Equium M50 supports the IDE interface and only IDE hard drives are compatible.
  You can use a HARD drive that supports IDE ATA-6 interface.

  In addition, you should know that the BIOS supports a HARD drive size limitation. This means that not all HARD drive sizes are supported.
  In my opinion the 120 GB should be ok but it s just my personal suggestion. You know? ;)

• How to set only your screen and the HDD to sleep

  I'm going away for an extended period of time and let my laptop. However, I intend to connect to my laptop occasionally via a remote access account. In order to keep my computer "connectable", is there a setting I can chance that would have the computer display and a HDD to sleep but not the network? My laptop is going to be plugged in, so I'm not worried about the battery on me dying.

  Platform: Vista Edition Home Premium
  Computer: Dell Inspiron 1520

• Inspiron 1520 HDD SSD

  Hello Dell Community

  I have an inspiron 1520 for almost 5 years.   at that time, he worked as how it should be, but then, my hhd began to give so many errors and a loud "beep". I had to reinstall the operating system more than 10 times last year. replacing my hard drive with an ssd would be useful, and if I replaced my hard drive with an ssd would work, some say that it might work, and the other said, it won't.

  I currently have: http://www.fujitsu.com/cn/Images/MHW2160BH.pdf

  Some people recommended I get a: kingston hyperx ssd 240 GB 3 k

  link: http://www.kingston.com/us/hyperx/ssd#sh103s3

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Both seem to be connecting SATA SSDS could work.  I wonder if your laptop can handle the flow of increased speed of this good SSD card.  Have not tried, so I can't recommend or discourage the use.

  But in general, Yes, an SSD will be more reliable and much faster than a traditional HARD drive.  All hard drives crash at some point given, even SSDS, so what you end up out of this upgrade is not something that anyone can predict.

  Here is a link to the Pages of Support from Dell, and if you enter your service tag you will find a link to the manuals for your specific system.  There are techniques and replacement part information in their manuals that may be useful.

• Computer laptop need to change the HDD in the SDS?

  Have 3 questions related to the Toshiba SSD!
  1. what laptop need to change the HDD in the SDS?
  ATA, http://www.toshiba.com/taec/adinfo/ssdfacts/ so 1.8 and 2.5, I look at who is the same dimenssions and right?

  2. I have this model Toshiba R200-S2031, is it possible to change drive HARD 80-SSD 256 1.8 inches? I understand that my model has 1.8 IDE I can't take 2.5? But replace IDE ATA is possible that they are the same size?

  3. If I R500 with 64 SSD drive, can I replace it it with greater SDS and the same size of thumb? Let's say I have 2.5 64 GB SSD ich so I could replace it with 500 GB SSD?

  tnaks for answers.
  and Toshiba - thanks to make small laptops, really enjoy.
  you want to update faster, but I LIKE THEM!
  Thanks Toshiba!

  (1) as a general rule, all laptops can be upgraded to an SSD. If the connector on the SSD is the same as the original hard drive connector, it should work.

  (2) I believe there are 1.8 "PATA SSD available, google is your friend.

  (3) I think the R500 is using a connector ZIFF customized for the SSD drive, then you will not be able to install a standard SATA or PATA 2.5 "SSD Drive. I don't know if you can buy SSDS with the connector ZIFF, once again, google can help you.

• Satellite L755 - how to return to Windows 7 using the HDD Recovery folder

  Hello
  are how you today

  I own a toshiba Satellite L755.
  I have recently upgraded to windows 7 to windows 8, and now I do not have windows 8. I want to go back to windows 7.

  Many people say that it is possible using the HDD Recovery folder that I have on my D drive and it s 13.5 GB.

  What I need is to know if its possible and if you can you explain to me how its done.

  I searched the Web for an answer for tha last 4 hours and I thank you

  > Many people say that it is possible using the HDD Recovery folder that I have on my D drive and it s 13.5 GB

  A lot of people said you can use HARD drive recovery in order to put the system back to factory settings.
  This true s but this is possible ONLY if the system has not been modified.

  In case you have changed the system, you could go back to the factory settings using the recovery disk!
  Recovery disk may be created using the preinstalled tool called Toshiba Recovery Media Creator.

  Have you created this disc in the past!
