Upgrade memory Portege R500-100 for Windows 7

I would like to move from XP to Windows 7. The recommended RAM size is 2 GB. My R500 is equipped with 2 x 512 MB RAM modules. The manual says I can replace it with a 1 GB module. My question is if I can replace it by a 2 GB (or even 4 GB) module instead? If not, is it possible to change the module on the main Board, or which is fixed?

Thanks for your help.

In my view, that there is another problem. According to specification for laptop, your laptop can handle with max 1 536 MB so I think it does not make sense to change the internal memory if value max is 1 536 MB only.

  • Portege R500-100 - drivers after format HARD drive

    Hey,.

    First post so go easy :)

    I reformatted my hard drive the other day, but the drivers for my laptop support is poor.

    The audio drivers are not working, I have several unknown devices in Device Manager in need of drivers, but I don't know what drivers to install.

    Anyone could point us in the right direction?

    Its a r500-100

    Hey Buddy,

    Why you are not satisfied with the Portege R500 driver support? I mean can you all the drivers on the site of Toshiba, and for most versions of Windows. Just follow the link posted by Al - eX.

    And you should install all the drivers you can find on the Toshiba site. After that, you use all the functions of your mobile phone and you get back to factory settings.

    Your only option for adding storage is with the SD card reader, which is actually a very good option. Get a fast SD card high capacity

    That stick to the machine and shaped into a literate player. Then you can go and change the location of Documents, images, video files in Windows 10.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/redirect-folder-new-location#1TC=Windows-7

    Above is Windows 7 but Windows 10 still works the same. Move the files to the SD card, together is the default download location for the browser, etc.

    Ask in terms of memory, but you mean that storage. The RAM (sharp) of 2 GB is not extensible. It is an Atom processor but the next generation and it is 64-bit. The Windows installed 10 will be a version 10 of Windows 64-bit edition, not some watered down Michael tablet thing. It can run Office 2016 and if she is a student of her school could have an agreement on this subject, or you can look in the student Office 365, version which is I think that $6 per month or $80 all the in.

  • PC laptop Envy 15: WiFi keeps falling after upgrade HP Envy 15 laptop for Windows 10

    I asked HP remote support to fix the adapter Intel Dual Band Wireless AC 3160.  They uninstalled and reinstalled the driver to the latest version 18.30.0.9 dated dated 03-11-2015.

    WiFi connection a bit improved, but after a longer period of use, it is back to the previous state of connection loss after running for a few minutes.

    The error showed in troubleshooting is "the wireless works do not.  However the services indicated in the Task Manager are all performed correctly.  Sometimes, it can be retrieved with the troubleshooting procedure, sometimes not.

    HP has the right driver Wireless Windows 10 on the map?  I've exhausted every possibility by ensuring that the driver is up-to-date.  Connection Wi - Fi worked well in point 8.1 of Windows before upgrade.

    I discovered after the application of the "Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 for x 64 systems (KB3116900)", dated December 8, 2015, the disconnection of wireless automation problem seems to go away.

    I've been running on continually of the Wi - Fi connection for the last 24 hours on different routers after the * beep * update.  The WIFi connection has not declined.

    It seems that Microsoft has fixed this issue with the version of December to win 10.  If anyone else can check?

  • Upgrading Toshiba Satellite PRO C for Windows 8 with DVD

    Hi all!

    I tried to upgrade to Windows 8 PRO with the DVD provided with the laptop but cannot achieve this goal.

    I made the changes in the BIOS as the said document (CSM boot for a UEFI boot and enable Secure Boot), started the laptop with the DVDs, but after running for a while, it stops and show a message saying something like there is not enough space in partition to write the image o something like that. Sorry because I don't have the exact message. Any ideas on this subject?

    Fortunately, I did the DVD to recover for the restoration of Windows 7, but I would like to run Windows 8 in the laptop.

    Kind regards.

    Javier.

    If I m not wrong not the message means that the partition does not provide sufficient space to install the system Win 8.

    I think you need to format the partition before you begin the installation of the system.
    This option should be given during the installation of the OS, I can not say with certainty what stage should provide this option, but this should be asked at the beginning of the installation

  • Upgrade memory Portege S100

    Hello

    On the product page of toshiba for Toshiba Portege S100, it says that the maximum capacity of the laptop RAM is 2 GB. So I bought 2 GB of RAM for installation. However, there is only one slot available to increase the RAM (I think).

    The RAM that I got is a 256 MB module, and since my laptop has 512 MB of RAM, there must be another crack also. (After installing one of the 1 GB modules, I now 1.25 GB of RAM)

    How to install a 1 GB of RAM?
    Thank you

    Hello

    usually, if a machine has 2 expansion slots, then the other must be under the keyboard. So, if you want to install the other, try to look under the keyboard.
    But be careful: If you are not familiar with the disassembly of machines and if you have still warranty on machine to you, it would be better to give your machine a technician for the exchange of memory.

    If you can't risk a voiding your warranty if you still have it and you won´t run the risk of damaging your portege.

  • Upgrading memory Portege Z30-B-113

    Hello

    I can't find any tutorials on the internet nor in the Toshiba docs on how to open my laptop.
    I would spend from 8 to 16 GB.

    I found a lot of screws on the bottom of things, but it seems that there are more under the plastic feet. The problem is I don't want to damage them and I would like a manual to see how to go down feet correctly to be able to remove these screws...

    Kind regards

    The point why Toshiba provides no such manual is simply:
    The memory in this model of laptop is not user part extensible.

    This means that remove it any cover in order to get access to the memory locations would negate the warranty.
    I think that's not risk it is useful...

    To keep the warranty to be valid, the upgrade must be performed by authorized technicians.
