Upgrading memory on a Satellite Pro S300

Hello

I have a S300 with 3 GB of RAM and want to switch to 4 GB. There are two memory cards into the machine, both with 4 chips. What should I do to increase capacity? I guess I will need to replace the two cards with a pair of 2 GB cards.

Thank you very much
Stan

Yes, you will need to use 2 x 2 GB RAM modules.
I guess that the DDR2 800 MHz SO-DIMM should be compatible.
I made good experiences with the Kingston modules. Very good brand and good quality.

  • Upgrade memory on the Satellite Pro A200

    Have two cell phones of #PSAE1E - 00T002EN Satellite Pro A200 and wanted to know if I can pass the 2 x 1 GB memory 2 x 2 GB?

    If I understand correctly what ask you, you want to upgrade memory of 4 GB laptops.

    Well, I think that it s is not possible.
    The Satellite Pro A200 supports maximum 2 GB of RAM (2 x 1 GB), then you will not be able to use 2 x 2 GB modules.

  • Upgrade memory on a Satellite Pro 4270XDVD

    Hello

    I need help. I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro 4270XDVD. I want to increase my memory, as I have only 64 guidelines that come with it. When I opened the back of the computer to check the memory locations there are 2 empty ones. There is a Slot A and B. The problem is that A slot is broken. The 2 clamps that hold the memory are absent. Someone broke them up. B of Slot memory seems OK, and I put a barrette of memory in it. The problem is that my manual says not to use slot B if A slot is empty. Do you know why this is? Also is it possible to fix the clips in A slot without replacing the entire motherboard.

    Thanks for your help,

  • Upgrade memory for a Satellite Pro 4320

    I own a Satellite Pro 4320. He has the memory factory (64 MB), and I want to develop it. I read in the manual that it is possible to install up to 576 MB. But in other documents and web pages, I read that 320 MB is the maximum memory.

    Anyone know what is the right number?

    Does anyone know where to find 256 MB modules (if they can be installed)? I found only 128 MB modules.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    I found information that 320 MB Max for this device. I have also not lucky to find the 256 MB RAM module for this device. There are two possibilities. You can contact the partner in your country and stopped a single module or you have to find some pieces of mobile equipment supplier in your country.

  • Upgrade of RAM for Satellite Pro S300-11

    Hello
    I have this netbook for two years now and I need to add more memory RAM, it has 2 GB and is capable of having up to 8 GB.
    I went to two local stores to buy a memory stick, but they are not able to find my netbook to their suppliers, so that they have no idea what memory modules could go well with my pc. I know that the installed RAM module is a DDR2 at 800 MHz. So, any module of ram with these specifications should work correctly?
    Another question is if my computer is able to read up to 8 GB or I have to upgrade the BIOS (I have not updated, so I have one pre-installed).
    Thanks for your reply and sorry for my English!
    See you soon!

    Hi manelfera,

    The laptop has Intel GM45 chipset and the chipset supports up to 8 GB of memory. This means that you can install 4 GB module in both memory slots. As you already wrote DDR2 800 MHz is the correct specification.

    Theoretically, each module with this specification will work, but I recommend the purchase of high quality of Kingston for example modules. I have good experiences with this brand :)

    Updating the BIOS is not necessary for the upgrade of RAM so you can keep the current version.

  • Upgrade memory to the Satellite Pro A120-185 PSAC1E

    The original installed memory of 1 GB in my trusty old A120 is now become a bit of a factor limiting and I want to upgrade to the full 4 GB. I checked this site and it says that the memory runs at 533 MHz.

    However, looking at various other sites suggested that some varieties of this laptop can run memory running at 667 MHz - according to its region!

    Anyone knows which is the right speed?
    Obviously, I want to put a faster RAM in it when I update, but if we can't run it, I don't want to waste money I can't use memory especially.

    Thanks in advance.

    Tony

    Hello

    > However looking at various other sites given to think that some varieties of this laptop can run memory running at 667 MHz - according to its region!
    Depends on the FSB (front side bus)

    If the FSB would allow the 667 Mhz, then the modules of memory also would go to 667 Mhz. If the FSB supports only 533 Mhz then your modules will be run max 533 Mhz even though the modules support 667 Mhz.
    Simply said; the FSB can slow down the speed of the memory.

  • Satellite Pro S300 - 11 H - upgrade to Windows 7 is not

    Hello
    I have a Satellite Pro S300 - 11 H running Vista Business.
    I registered for the Toshiba Windows 7 Upgrade and received 2 DVDs and minimalist upgrade instructions.

    Following the instructions:
    Part 1: Toshiba Upgrade DVD - all the success, after recording all the fingerprints of TrueSuite Access Manager.

    Part 2: upgrade to MS Windows 7 DVD - I uninstalled iTunes as it recommended. It then crosses the first steps OK, but on the last step of the installation, it gives the blue screen of death. PC restarts and Vista is restored.

    Part 3: Not running

    I wasn't looking over time so don't see does not error messages. Is there a log file of the installation failure Windows 7 that I could check to try to find out why the upgrade failed? Tips and tricks

    You can live without TEMPRO. Believe me that. Beast of sounds now but maybe the tool delete as first step I made on my new laptop Satellite.
    In any case, if you want to have it just download the latest version of the Toshiba support page.

  • Satellite Pro S300 - HDD in caddy is not recognized by BIOS

    I replaced the original HARD drive and installed a new SSD that works very well.
    Installed the W7Pro and all updates.

    I do not use my burner so I replaced the CD drive and installed a shopping cart with my old HDD to have more disk space.

    When I start my laptop, I see a message of ERROR of CD-ROM.
    In Device Manager the caddy and or the HARD drive is not displayed.

    I tried to change settings in the BIOS (according to Toshiba utility the latest version), but even in the Bios is no information about this SSD or HARD drive installed. (or the CD player when I re - install this drive again)

    What's not here? Do I need a BIOS updated allowing the 2nd HARD drive?
    Or if I forget a setting somewhere?

    NB in the BIOS HARD drive drive settingis according to ACPI, the list below it is referred to as IDE device.
    When I enter the BIOS IDE instead of ACPI, I still see the CD-ROM ERROR when starting and after this message, the screen is blue and no other activity.

    > What is the problem here? Do I need a BIOS updated allowing the 2nd HARD drive?
    > Or if I forget a setting somewhere?

    To my knowledge, not all laptops support a 2nd HDD rather than the ODD (optical disc)

    Also, not all CD/DVD drives are compatible and could be used for all laptops.

    So agree with the user above and I think it's the problem of compatibility also.

    I've tried deactivited and operated them, no change. I checked the ports and the response of the system are that they are involved.

  • Satellite Pro S300 - Performance issues running Everquest 2

    Hello, I am currently using the Satellite Pro S300-EZ1511.

    I was trying to find a way to share the memory in the BIOS, but I've been reading around and it seems that you can not do this with these laptops... My question is, what I currently play the game Everquest 2, and I was talking to someone of performance that I currently have to run the game on the lowest setting, and we exchanged Plug and it turned out that his laptop was actually not as good as mine, but he managed to run the game with a better graphic quality.
    Anyone who is familiar with this game, or you have any advice on how to increase the video if possible memory or to simply improve performance?

    I think I should at least be able to run a top quality graphics game layer is... I was looking in the graphic propertiese (when you right-click on the desktop) and under setting 3d but alas I'm not sure what those setting are.
    Any help would be appreicated.

    I find it strange that my laptop older can run this top quaility set then this laptop from new and better.

    > I think it was 1 G of ram and 64 MB or 128 MB ATI onboard card video (I think it was the 128)
    I think that this is the reason why the game runs better on your old laptop because it of a ATI card and these cards are designed for games. There are a lot more nVidia and ATI cards, they are much better than the most recent card Intel graphics.
    As resident said Intel cards are not designed for games.

    Also did you check the system requirements for the game? He argues that Intel graphics card in your laptop?

    The graphics settings are ok. S default settings and for better compatibility and performance. It do not change anything.
    If you read on the internet that other people changed some settings why ask n t they? These people he'll know what to change, but I doubt that this can help you but it s worth a try! ;)

  • Additional memory needed for Satellite Pro 2100

    Hello

    I want to upgrade the memory on my Satellite Pro 2100 and I found compatible parts on the Toshiba site but would like to ask how he would settle?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    At the bottom of the unit, you should find a memory cache location. As far as I know it s placed in the middle.
    Under this coverage, you should find two locations. A slot uses 256 MB module, and the second site should be free.

  • Satellite Pro S300 - 11 H: charging not not after re-installation of software

    My laptop has been "reset" by a Virus called AdwCleaner last week removal tool (CAUTION - do NOT run it on your laptop - if could ruin your life!)  :(

    In any case, the result of it was that I had to take it to a repair shop where they were unable to restore Windows XP I had used since I got the machine, and so they have had to re - install the original Windows Vista which was the OS when I bought it. (I bought a "downgrade" to XP disc with the laptop)

    Until that happened, the charging of the battery and everything worked well, but since I'll be back my laptop from the store, battery does not charge.

    When I hover over the right low battery icon, it says "3% available, battery not charging".
    The battery is OK, because if I unplug the power cable, the laptop stays on.

    Is there some setting somewhere that is revealing the machine do not recharge the battery?
    How can I get it back to normal?

    See you soon,.
    Select this option.

    In Device Manager, expand battery area.

  • Satellite Pro S300 - how do I uninstall TrueSuite to install Win 7 Win 8

    I put my Toshiba Satellite Pro S300 from Windows 7 to Windows 8 at level and I am stuck at the point where I need to uninstall first TrueSuite Access Manager.

    It is not listed under programs and features, so I can't uninstall it from there.

    I downloaded util_tam_uninstall_TC00240000B.exe and run it without success.

    Any suggestions?

    > It does not appear in programs and features, so I can't uninstall it from there.

    I can't believe that if the utility is installed, it should appear in the box programs and features.
    On the other hand also the fingerprint driver is installed
    So, you can check if you need to uninstall the driver of the fingerprint of the Device Manager.

    I have a Satellite Pro S300 the recovery partition has long been eliminated and the computer was working fine until I opened an e-mail allegedly Fed Ex, ERROR!

    A got a malware virus really bad.

    So I bought a vista business recovery disk for my computer and wiped hard drive t.He. During the installation of Vista, I get a preinst5.swm missing on the first disc.

    After that I skipped the file I got an error of 10-fc06-0002 on the second disc and a cancellation of the installation.
    I looked online for this error and a lot of people have had the same problem. Nobody seems to know what to do.

    I installed Vista Home Premium from a disk recovery Dell with no problems, however, when I tried to change the product key to that on the computer I got the key was not good for the version of hp vista.

    So what to do.
    I think Toshiba made a good product, but the recovery disk, they sent me for $30 was bad.

    I thought that I could copy the disc on another computer and copy a good version of preinst5.swm and try to make a good recovery disk, but I don't have a lot of confidence in Toshiba software.
