  Hi mate.

  As far as I know your laptop supports two memory locations.
  They must be placed at the bottom of the unit.
  If you n t know how to change this then I recommend consulted the user manual!
  The manual can be downloaded from the Toshiba European page.
  I think that the laptop can be upgraded to 2 GB of RAM. So, you can use 1 GB of RAM in one slot.

  PS: you must use the RAM DDR2 PC2-4200 memory - 200pin modules

• Upgrade memory on Equium L20

  I received an Equium L20 as a gift last year. About a month after getting it going, it was very, very slow. It turns out it was sold to me with only 256Meg RAM - not even enough for XP run!

  I am based in the States now and sent THREE different updates by a 'good reputation on the line memorystore"which none have set up properly...

  L20 forum claims that I need:

  PC-4200 DDR2 - 533 SO DIMM

  Is this correct? I'm sure that the existing memory reads PC2700...

  The problem seems to be that although the memory card aligns OK, the side grooves on each side that hold in place do not line up with the arm in the memory slot.

  Can anyone help? Please, I beg you!

  Thank you

  Dave

  Hello

  According to the specification you can upgrade with 2 GB RAM max. A slot is empty and then you can put the extra RAM module. Maybe the best solution is to put module with more capacity in the slot A and 256 MB of RAM in slot B. Compatible modules are:
  DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
  512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)

  Good bye

• Equium L20-264 - CPU upgrade

  Hello world

  I have Toshiba Equium L20-264 and I want to move into gear
  Can someone help me please?

  I had already upgraded to 2 GB of Ram, but my CPU is still 1.4 GHz.

  Please guide me what to do and if it supports several Ghz processor, which will be the best place to buy.

  Thank you.

  I assume that you have not read all the posts here in the forum about upgrading the CPU s for laptop?
  Did you?

  Some facts first:
  Update CPU is very delicate and depends on the chipset and BIOS support.
  In case one of the parties (chipset or bios) would not support new CPU, the will to power laptop on.

  Second: the laptop seems to be equipped with an Intel Celeron - M CPU, and I suppose the other Intel Celeron-M CPU be compatible:
  Intel Celeron M 370 (1.5 Ghz)
  Intel Celeron M 380 (1.6 Ghz)

  Everything supports the FSB 400 Mhz

  But guess what? Even if you add the new processor at 1.6 Ghz, the performance gain will be not noticeable. So in my eyes, CPU upgrade for this old book is useless. It won't add any performance benefits.

• Recommended graphics card and processor for Equium L20-264

  Hello

  I was wondering which graphics cards are compatiable with equium l20-264 because I have a radeon eXpress standard ATI 200 m (waste) and wanted to update my graphics card, but I'm a beginner I upgraded my ram but really need an update for my graphics card to a lot of games for vista (you probably think how I have vista on a computer no-vista laptop ^_^)

  I was also wondering if I coould go my Proccesor to a best something like 1.0 GHZ to 2.5 GHZ but a one celeron so I don't have to get a new motherboard.

  Hello

  I would recommend not all graphics cards for this camera because it s is usually not possible to replace or update the chip graphic card on laptops.

  Upgrading the CPU would be possible.
  The CPU of the new generation of motherboards for laptop is not welded and it might be possible to remove it.
  BUT the updates are not recommended because
  -first of all, you will lose the warranty and
  -Second, the laptop could run unstable due to the higher temperature.

  However, I found a few compatible Intel Celeron - M CPU, which are supported by the motherboard:
  Intel Celeron-M 350 (1.30 GHz) FSB: 400 MHz
  360 (1.40 GHz)
  370 (1.50 GHz)
  380 (1.60 GHz)

• Equium L20-264: can I unlock the options in the Bios to change the speed of the CPU & FSB

  Hello

  I have a toshiba equium l20-264 today and I was wondering if I can open it the options in the bios to change the cpu speed and the speed of the fsb.

  But if you don't don't do this, I already have a Dell Xps laptop Overclcoked to 4.5 ghz (twisted majorly) and I installed today a very powerful cooler and heatsink of heat inside my laptop, I'm ready to overclock bu ti do not know if I can via bios but if so could you point me to guides for a code name overclocking intel celeron m 360 : DOTHAN

  Help, please

  regards James...

  Hello

  Unfortunately, this is not possible on the laptop.

  I o year owner of 3 different computers; two laptops and a desktop PC. The BIOS on the desktop is different and allows to change and increase the CPU. But the laptops BIOS does not allow to do something similar.

  Why? Because the CPU overclocking would increase the internal temperature and make portable is not stable and perhaps that it would infringe the motherboards and CPU!
  The notebooks run with maximum efficiency. If you compare the notebooks modules with cooling Office cooling modules you will see the difference!

  Please don t waste your time and don t find any possibility to overclock the CPU and the FSB

• Upgrade memory of satellite L20-181

  Hey all

  I want to upgrade memory on my Toshiba Satellite L20-181.
  Now I have 256 MB and I want to add another stick of memory to 256 MB.
  Could you please inform me about the type of memory has this laptop?
  On the site it is said:
  Standard system memory: 256 MB
  maximum scalability: 2 048 MB
  technology: DDR2 RAM

  DDR2?
  A link with such a memory would be very useful.
  Also, anyway to buy memory online?

  Best regards

  Hello

  The news that you are quite right. Toshiba has tested this laptop with the memory modules to follow:
  DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
  512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)

  As you can see it's memory module DDR2 and if you use the part (PA.) to the Google number, you will find many online offereor where you can order this tested memory. I recommend buying the original or perhaps module of Kingston. On this way, you will be sure that the new module will be recognized correctly.

  Good luck!

• Help battery Equium L20

  Hello.. I recently bought the Equium L20, told me it can provide the last 3 hours running on battery, but mine seems to only last 45 minutes, told me there are food options I need to change but I don't know how... Please can someone give me very specific instructions on how to make it last for 3 hours.

  Hi Michael

  Well, it's not easy to say the exactly battery working time, because it depends on the use of the laptop. As far as I know that it s about 3 hours. But if you play games or watch DVDs on the life expectancy of the battery unit is shorter than if you use the laptop with office applications.
  In addition, you should check the s of this laptop manual. You will find information may how to manage the battery. For example, it is important to remove the battery from the device if the power adapter is plugged.

• How often I need update BIOS Equium L20-264?

  Hello

  How many times have you need update the bios on L20 - 264? and what he achieve by doing this?

  Last update I was in summer.

  How many times? I bought my laptop 5 years ago and I've never updated my BIOS.
  Do you know that the update of the BIOS is risky? The bad BIOS or bad BIOS upgrade procedure can damage the ROM module or the motherboard.

  If you have any problems and the unit works fine, the BIOS update is unnecessary.

• Equium L20-264: Question on the actual battery life

  Hi Forum: I know that I need PA3420U-1BRS battery as a replacement for my laptop. Can someone tell me what the real battery life is that I can't find any information on this.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  It is not easy to say, and that it is not generally answer on this question.
  The life expectancy of the batteries depends on the use of portable computers. The use of programs and applications heavy and high performance decreases battery life.

  However, you can charge the battery about 500 times. After this period, the battery performance decreases.

• Upgrade memory laptop Equium A200-15i

  Equium A200 computer comes with 2 GB (2 x 1 GB) aboard I understand that it can be improved at least 4 GB.

Your thoughts are welcome and also included in advance thank you!

  If the laptop can handle with 4 GB of RAM I see no problem with upgrade using the 1 x 2 GB module.
