Upgrade CPU on Satellite L30-101

Hi, I have a Toshiba Satellite L30-101. I upgraded the RAM to 2 GB (2 x 1 GB) successfully, but I find it incredibly difficult to get information on the replacement of the processor.

The laptop has the latest version of the BIOS on it (3.10 - WIN - 02/19/08), but trying to find information on whats inside I'm hitting brick walls. First of all the site > http://www.toshiba-tro.de/biosinfo/< doesn't="" have="" my="" laptop="" on="" it,="">
Product type: notebook
Family: Satellite
Product series: Satellite L series
Model:? unknown
Short model No.:? unknown

I hope I could paste in but with the ATI chipset Intel Duo, I'm sure that it won't work but once again without knowing what in the BIOS, compatible... I got lost. Single processor I can find who can work, same package, FSB, socket is an Intel Core Solo T1350 of processor which begins at 1.86 GHz, not a huge difference, and I don't know that it cannot be the only option of replacement.

Could someone and please help me to get the hands on info from BIOS and compatible processors for my laptop. The current Intel Celeron M Processor 410 deporting the 1.46 GHz is not good enough for Vista (cert on laptop) and basic multi-task. His way of late too even after a good tune up, ram, HD 7200 rpm upgrade. I need an upgrade of the processor, but as mentioned it is incredibly difficult to get the information which would be compatible.

Sincerely,

Gourcuff

Hello

In my opinion, your attempt to replace the CPU is false. Why? Satellite L30 is not designed to offer performance and it is designed for everyday use. Best evidence was the price. It wasn't so expensive.

Can you please tell us why do you have new CPU? Do you use special software?

Return to the replacement of the CPU. As you probably know laptops have limited upgrade options and it is related to the RAM and disk HARD upgrade. It's definitely not for CPU upgrade and it is not supported. Specific design, especially of the cooling system is designed for certain CPU.
Because of this, you will not be able to find relevant info on replacement of the CPU.

Check it please this Toshiba document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  • Question about upgrading CPU for Satellite L30-101

    Is it possible to upgrade my processor from a 1.44 to what higher?

    No, there is no way because:

    -It s too expensive
    -It s complicated Exchange when you´re no technician for laptop
    -you won´t win any show (especially when the performance vs price comparison)

    Instead update your RAM and your HARD drive since that these components are comp. evolutionary and better will give you better performance.

  • Upgrade CPU on Satellite L30-134

    If someone managed upgrade CPU on one of them again? Ive had contributed up to memory, but its still a little slow if you know what I mean...: P

    Ive been watching the Core2 SLV3W 2x1.33Ghz, the same operating temperature and the FSB, the two socket 478/9 but do not know if the BIOS will chuck a Teddy, Mobile Pentium look a little hot to run on this forum, well its amazing what you can do with a dremel tool and a bit of copper pipe , if need be I will be doctor existing cooling...

    Comments or suggestions gratefully received.

    I've dealt,

    Unfortunately, no one here would be able to give you really good information that could be useful for you. Since you´re a Pro, you should check out this site for example: http://www.irisvista.com/tech/

    The BIOS cannot be changed, but if the chipset is capable you can try it. Decision-making is always the same, so the package should fit into the hole ;)
    But I recommend you NOT to change the cooling system because it s lined up to work with the entire system. The system might work a little 'non-glaciere' and wouldn be quiet as before, but it should work.

    So, how you see yourself. I'm with you, but I can give you correct information because I am just modding computers for office (and already upgraded a laptop with some new CPU so I know something about it and I can tell you: Don t ask here.) Just read the headings and you'll see why :))

    Good luck and welcome

  • Problems of memory on the Satellite L30-101

    I have a toshiba satellite l30-101 laptop and wanted to upgrade the RAM, so I bought 2 x 1 GB sticks to put in it.
    Now, I could not find all those at 533 mhz so I bought 2 667 mhz after a talk to a technical guy who said if I had 2 the same speed it will work very well.

    Only this isn't at all that I can put a stick and it works very well with the 533 mhz.
    The one I have in if I try to put the two sticks in it comes up with errors of memory and I get the bsod that restarts my computer and did not get my games or other programs.
    Is anyway to make sure I can have both new sticks in that I really need RAM and do not want to buy different ones.
    I mean if I can get another one we should probably work well work?

    Please help im crazy trying to solve this shit

    Hello

    I think that the speed of the memory has nothing to do with the BSOD!
    In my opinion the BSOD appears due to the failure of memory!

    In addition the L30-101 supports only the FSB 533 Mhz. In this case you will not be able to run the 667 Mhz modules of memory at full speed.
    The modules will run at 533 Mhz only!

    So in my opinion, you must replace the defective module with one that works very well!

    Best regards

  • No games no install on Satellite L30 - 101

    Hey,.

    I have a laptop Satellite L30-101, which happened with Vista.
    When I was with Vista I had none of these problems, but since I went down to XP install no games.
    The games can go on the menu when you click on install but nothing after that, it doesn't do anything.
    The screen will stay as it is and what can I do but no installer runs.

    I am sure I have drivers properly installed but not sure that more.

    No one knows the correct driver should I use, and if this is really the problem?

    Thank you.

    Satellite L30-101 has not been delivered with the Vista operating system.
    You have received a Toshiba with Win XP Recovery disk and I wonder why you n t use this disk.
    All drivers XP, tools and utilities are already preinstalled on the recovery disk.

    I recommend that you use this disk and then try to reinstall some games

  • After downgrading from Vista Satellite L30-101 does not read DVD

    Hey,.

    Like many people, I didn't like Vista and so returned to the use of Windows XP.

    In doing so, I lost a lot of things like the ability to watch DVDs and sound, most of these problems fixed so easily by downloading the drivers from this site.

    However, even after the DVD driver download I can't read DVDs yet.
    When you try to play through Windows media player I get say error message that I did not have a MPEG-2 decoder, in the section web site help, it suggests where to get one, but you have to play for each other.
    After having one in the first place, I don't think I should buy a new one.

    If anyone has a solution it would be greatly appretiated if they could let me know.

    Thank you

    PS I have a Satellite L30-101

    I think you have a codec problem, but I'm not sure. Maybe you should install the latest version of Media Player and codec Xvid, DivX and AC3. These are free (google it!). Or you can try alternative software, such as WinDVD or PowerDVD, you can try the demo versions.

  • Satellite L30-101 will not boot after memory expansion

    Hello

    We have a Toshiba Satellite L30-101 with 512 MB memory

    We also bought 2 X 1 GB-compatible modules to extend the memory to its max.

    When we installed the two new modules the laptop won't boot.

    We tried to install one at the time and both work individually. I also tried 1 X 512 MB
    and 1 X 1 GB, which also worked.

    It seems that we are not the only one with this problem!

    1.5 works much better on le.5 but it doesn't seem to be a shame to have the autres.5 but its unusable!

    regards db

    I think that you have incompatible modules for mode dual channel.
    What RAM do you have?

    A module is maybe corrupted and so he doesn t run in mode dual channel.

    You can check the module with a program like Memtest86: [www.memtest86.org]

  • Satellite L30-101: could not connect to Orange Livebox via WI - FI

    Hi all

    Bought my first laptop today, a Satellite L30-101 with Vista. I finally managed to connect to my livebox after filming of encryption and the Vista firewall. Now, I turned as well on I can not connect. I get a msg of error saying 'the settings saved on this computer do not match the requirements of the network. I tried to repair the i.p address and tried to change the security settings in the properties.

    Ideally, I would like to completely remove the existing profile then the Connection Wizard may start. This is probably very simple, but I am new to wifi and Vista and would be grateful if anyone could offer advice.

    Concerning
    Dave.

    Hi again,
    Following the previous, I have more the error msg. I changed the Livebox WPA security only and on the L30, I put the WPA-personal security type and TKIP encryption.

    When I start this is the message I get

    PXE - E61: MEDIA TEST FAILURE, CHECK CABLE

    I replaced the HARD drive, but I still get the same message

    Any idea?

    Thank you

    You replaced the HARD drive.
    That is fine, but did you install the operating system using recovery on this new HARD disk media?

    > I was updating my BIOS on toshiba website and while he was installing the battery has been disconnected and when I turned on my computer laptop back I got was a black screen, the fans would start and thecd rom would turn

    I m afraid the BIOS update has no procedure and therefore the ROM chip has not updated as it should. This is the reason why the laptop can not start correctly.

    I think that it of necessary to reflash the ROM BIOS module Once again, but this can be done only using a procedure of BIOS of crisis.
    As far as I know this can be done only through ASP because there is no traditional BIOS version by download.

  • Can satellite L30-101 - I change Vista to XP

    Hello

    I've been looking by changing from Vista to XP on a Toshiba Satellite L30 - 101.

    I wonder if this is possible, because I do not know abut driver problems. I found this site:

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU

    Which has a list of drivers, including those of Windows xp to the L30. Before I try to make the change, I wanted to just make sure that it is possible and any issues i should know about.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    As I m not wrong not the Satellite L30-101 belongs to the series of PSL33E.
    I checked the page European driver of Toshiba and found this series of laptop and I also found the XP drivers.

    Therefore, you can change the Win XP and you will also be able to reinstall Win XP drivers!

    Good news. ;)

  • Upgrade CPU on Satellite Pro C660-219

    Hello.

    I wonder just to upgrade CPU on my laptop to get some perfomance.
    I did the upgrade of RAM to 8 gb and 64 bit Win7.
    Now, it's processor i3 - 370 M (3 m cache, 2.40 GHz).

    I'm sure I can go to i3 - 390 M (3 m Cache, 2.66 GHz) processor, but it will be useless IMO.
    It has same Cache and just a little bit faster CPU count:
    http://Ark.Intel.com/PL/compare/52955, 49020

    I need someone to answer the question: can I ride this laptop an i5 or i7 without problem with compatibility with the motherboard?

    Sorry for my poor English, but I think you will have a point of my case.
    I do not want to play games, but need more power for hd video editing when I'm outside my home office

    Concerning
    Tomasz Kowalski

    > I need someone to answer the question: can I ride this laptop an i5 or i7 without problem with compatibility with the motherboard?
    You should know that upgrades of processors are not supported by any laptop manufacturer. This means that no one can tell if a CPU would be fully compatible and cause no worries. These upgrades are own risk.

    You could read this statement from Toshiba about upgrades.
    [Is it possible to upgrade the CPU or GPU of a Toshiba laptop computer? | http://APS2.Toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm]

    The point is that even the chipset which is part of the motherboard would support the new processor, BIOS would not fully compatible and the combination of BIOS and the new processor may cause new troubles.

    The camera seems to supports the INTEL HM55 chipset and to my knowledge, the Toshiba Satellite C660/C665/Pro C660 series is based on a Dual Core/Quad Core Processor (* Intel Arrandale processors *)

    So if you want to find a compatible CPU, you should check the processors owned by the family of processors Intel Arrandale.

    For CPU upgrade, there are several different important things and not the BIOS only.

  • For the Archives: The upgrade of the Satellite L30-134

    I'm one of those old cell phones off a friend who had retired as being obsolete.

    However with a little time and money, it is possible to upgrade to a very usable machine.

    Not a power by any stretch but perfectly adequate for browsing the internet and watching videos (about 720 p watchable) standard definition etc.

    So as the search of these forums for more information for this project, I found a lot of conflicting advice, and some of my questions were not answered at all. I hope by documenting my experiences here I can help someone in the same position in the future.

    * Model *.

    This machine is the Toshiba Satellite L30-134, part number: PSL33E-00E013G3. It's probably very similar, but not necessarily the same as the other models L30. No invert them.

    * Original configuration *.

    Processor - Intel Celeron m 410 (Cache of 1 MB, 1.46 GHz, 533 MHz FSB, Socket M). It is a simple version of the Core Duo (Yonah core) processor core. It shares nothing in common and is not swapable with the previous generation Pentium M or processors Celeron Mr. He is also incompatible with the next generation of Core 2 Duo/Solo and Pentium and Celeron processors derived from these.

    Memory - A single 512MB SODIMM PC2 - 4200 (DDR2-533 MHz). This differs from the previous generation of DDR and the next generation of DDR3. The controller memory only supports single channel mode. There is no loss that the FSB of the processor is not fast enough to take advantage of the dual channel anyway.

    * BIOS *.

    My laptop came with very old version 1.3. Toshiba provides the latest version (3.10) for download. This is reported to be buggy and mess with the profiles of fan so I decided to leave it alone. I can confirm that my updates work without updating the BIOS.

    * Updates *.

    Processor - I swapped the Celeron for a Core Duo T2350 (1.87 GHz). Everything I read that all the Yonah core Core Duo/solo, Pentium and Celeron with a FSB of 533 are compatible. The FSB 667 models are not.

    The Core Duo T2450 at 2 GHz is the highest performing compatible processor but double the price on eBay. I paid just £12 (used) for the T2350 so there is really no reason to go down now, all of these parts are obsolete.

    RAM - there are 2 slots on this machine. Toshiba State a maximum of 2 GB, 1 GB in each slot. Unfortunately, the memory controller is very picky and survey of the weird errors, unless you get just the right ones.

    There is not enough information to understand it so for me it was a process of trial and error. Fortunately, I found an online retailer that guaranteed compatibility in 100% and returned by mail for free.

    The second pair of Poles worked well.

    Thanks for sharing!

  • Upgrade CPU on Satellite C70 - A - 16 L

    Hello, first of all I apologize for my bad English hahaha.

    I have a Satellite C70 - A - 16 L with pemtium processor I want to change it to an i3, i5 or a i7, is it possible?

    Thank you

    Upgrade CPU on laptops is not supported. This means that no one will be able to tell if the new CPU would work and if the laptop would be stable after this upgrade.

    Primarily this unit seems to be new. In this case, the warranty is still valid. If you disassemble the notebook in order to remove the CPU, you will void the warranty.
    I put t think it's worth a try.

    PS: even if you want to put a new processor, the performance gain is not noticeable. In my opinion better upgrade would be the use of SOLID-STATE drive instead of the HARD disk
