  Hello

  You are right. There is no update available. At the moment where the device was on the market, the card 2 GB SD was not available.

  This device is very similar with 5200 Satellite and you can try to use the SD card of her driver. It should be version 2. 0 2. I really don? t know if this can help, but you can try it.

  Otherwise, I really don? t know what you can do about it.

• How to upgrade my 256 MB RAM on the Satellite 2450-201?

  How to upgrade my 256 MB RAM on my Toshiba Satellite 2450 201? Where is the RAM located on it?

  AFAIK, you can upgrade to max 1024 MB (2x512MB) memory
  You use PC2100 DDR - RAM memory modules.
  The memory must be located under the keyboard. Remove the keyboard, to first remove the thin cover above the keyboard and remove the 2 screws that are placed under the thin cover.

  But if you don't have any experience you shouldn't t do. In this case, contact the service in your country

• Update graphics on the Satellite A100-215

  Hello!
  I would like to know if there is possible to update my graphics card to some one like a GeForce 8600GT or a Mr. Radeon HD2600, something like that, with the DirectX10.

  Thanks for any help.

  Hi friend

  Unfortunately there is no chance to update the graphic card of your machine, because the unit graph (or comparable) is welded ("wired") on the motherboard.
  This whole system was aligned with this chip, and there is no way to Exchange or upgrade your graphics subsystem.
  If you want better graphics and a more powerful graphics chipset, then you will need to purchase another computer with a better graphics card.

  That's all. Sorry dude.

  Hello

  Have you installed the driver for the Toshiba page?
  If so visit the Toshiba driver page and download the driver.
  It s not recommended to use NOT Toshiba graphics cards drivers.

  Then I recommend to check the display properties, if the screen of the laptop has been on the primary monitor. Mark the display with the digit 1 and check the option use this device as the primary monitor has been activated.

  Also, check in the Advanced tab nView option if the nView mode has been upgraded and that make the main display has been enabled for the screen of the laptop.

• Satellite 2450-201: cannot use TV option after the new installation of the OS

  Hello

  I have a laptop toshiba satellite 2450-201.
  I've always had the TV OUT works well with my TV, use the right cable SVIDEO.
  I was able to watch divx movies in my TV using my computer.

  I had to format the laptop and installed windows XP again.
  After that, I can't use more TV-OUT option, so that the image of the laptop could be seen on television, I've always had.
  After that I updated display drivers, but the problem remains.

  Can someone help me?
  Thank you

  Hello

  How do you reinstall the operating system? Have you used the recovery CD?
  Usually after the reinstallation of the operating system from the recovery CD, everything should work properly.
  It is important that you can switch to the TV. In this case, you can use FN + F5.
  If it's not working so I guess that for display devices hotkey utility works or was not installed. Well, the alternative is to pass on the TV via the graphic properties. The TV option, you should find somewhere in the advanced options.

  However, check it and check if you have installed all the drivers.

• Satellite 2450-201: how to increase the video memory from 32 to 64 MB?

  Can anyone help? I looked in the Bios and the advanced settings screen, and found nothing to increase the size of the video memory.
  Any other way to find on my Satellite 2450-201

  Hello

  As far as I know that the unit has been delivered with the NVidia GeForce4 420Go 32 MB graphics card. This isn't a memory sheared graphics card.
  The card supports the own memory and not a function of memory sheared.
  In this case, you cannot change the value of memory.

• Satellite 2450-201: update driver DVD - IDE #1 error

  Hello

  I need help to upgrade the dvd for my laptop model Satellite 2450-201 with internal dvd writer.

  I have LG and I got this message at startup: error IDE #1. Any suspicion that I speak with Dep. error tech and he said that the problem of compatible driver. I think that good performance with the system.

  If I update the bios from 1.3 to 1.5 it will solve this problem?
  Or do I need another brand name model to replace the old DVD with DVD - RW?

  Hello

  As someone from the tech, adj. suggested that this error message appears because the car is not compatible.
  The disc has a bad master/slave setting and so the BIOS can not recognize the drive.
  To resolve this problem, you must upgrade the laptop with compatible player.

  I found a compatible Toshiba PA3255U-1DV1 DVD-RAM drive. But this isn't a burner.
  I suggest to contact Toshiba service partner in your country to control the compatible player and supported. So you can be sure that you will get a good player.

• Satellite 2450-201: slow startup and shutdown

  I HAVE A SATELLITE 2450-201 AND I RUN ON WINDOWS XP HOME EDITION, I DID A REGISTRY CLEANER EVERYBODYS USERNAME USING REGISTRY FIX 5.5
  I HAVE DEFRAGED MY PC AND ALSO OPTIMIZED MY MSCONFIG STARTUP ITEMS AND EVEN THE BIOS UPDATE.
  THE RESULT IS EXTREMELY FASTER WHEN I CONNECT AND ACTUALLY UNDER WINDOWS BUT THE SAME OLD VERY SLOW STOP AND START TO WHAT I DO.

  THE WINDOWS BAR GOING ALONG AT LEAST 15 - 20 TIMES TO HELP START!

  Hello

  Maybe you've connected to some external devices to slow down the start-up procedure. You can also try to disable all the hardware components you n t need (modem. IrDA). Also check out which device is defined in a first start time (I hope that the HARD drive).

  For slow closing is responsible only running processes that should be forced disconnected. It all depends on your own configuration and you are using external devices.
