• Upgrading processor on Tecra S2-163

  I think about upgrading the processor in my Tecra S2 - 163 and wondering if she can handle the Pentum M 780...

  I thought that, of what is written in the manual, it would be at least treat the Pentium M 770, is this OK?

  Hello

  I found some info that Tecra S2 comes with three different processors Intel-Pentium-M (Dothan): 760 processor, processor 740 and processor 730.

  Generally the replacement of the processor is not possible due to a permanent connection method. The processors used in laptops are connected to the motherboard using a process called TCP (tape carrier package).

• Upgrade processor for Tecra M4

  I have a Tecra M4-138 with Intel Centrino mobile technology, including the processor Intel Pentium M 760, Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG network connection and Intel 915 PM Express chipset
  Clock speed: 2.0 GHz
  Front Side Bus: 533 MHz
  level 2: 2 MB cache

  Anyone know if it is possible to switch to a more powerful processor (keeping the motherboard)?

  There is only a single processor, which is faster than yours. It s the Intel Pentium-M processor with 2.13 GHz 770.

  So I think that it s not profitable to change the CPU, because a new processor of the laptop will be expensive
  The difference is very small and portable won't get really faster still.

• Question about upgrading processor on Tecra A9 (PTS52E)

  Is an X 9000 compatible with this laptop?

  Thank you

• Tecra 8100 - upgrade RAM and HARD drive

  Hello
  I just got a Toshiba Tecra 8100. I do not have this small a HHD and I wanted to know what size I can get it up to. I know y thread already asked this same question, but the technology continues to go better then perhaps there are HHD I can get.

  I am also wanting to upgrade the RAM. I've seen places that sell 144pin PC100 512 MB and I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade this 2 of them or not.

  Any input would be great!
  Thank you
  Doug

  Hello!

  The Tecra 8100 was delivered with HARD s up to 20 GB drive. I'm pretty sure that this laptop has a limitation of LBA 28 bits ([www.48bitlba.com]).
  I put t know what HARD drive you have at the moment, but a hard HARD 40 GB or 60 GB would work in this good old classic.

  In addition, the Tecra 8100 can be upgraded to 512 MB of RAM. So that you can t upgrade your laptop to more RAM.

  Good bye

• Tecra 8100 - upgrade RAM

  There was a discussion here ("Tecra 8100 - upgrade RAM") on the upgrade memory.
  He said that for TECRA 8000 - capacity maximum 256 MB memory (2 x 128). (unlike TECRA 8100 - which can be upgraded to 512)

  Does anyone know if the BIOS change may allow 512 MB with TECRA 8000?

  Thanks in advance,
  Piotr

  Hello

  I don t think that after updating the BIOS on the Tecra 8000, you will be able to use the 512 MB of memory.
  Like you said you can use max 256 MB (2 x 128 MB SDRAM)

• Tecra 8100 - CPU Upgrade

  Hello
  I have an old Tecra 8100. I've updated the 700 to 900 Mhz CPU. It works but the CPU is always set to 100 x 7 = 700 Mhz. I think this would work if I find a tool that can update the record DMI for the CPU. DMICFG can read the values but could not write them.
  Could someone tell my worms a solution?
  I think there is a Toshiba tool for this.

  Hello

  AFAIK more CPU, 800 MHz which was delivered with the Tecra 8100. I think it's limit.

  Maybe this help you: entered the BIOS using "Esc" + F1 during POST. Past processor speed of 'Low' to 'High' (used for recording of the battery).

• Tecra 8100 does not work after upgrading RAM

  Hello
  I bought a kingston KTT-SO815/256 pc100 144 pin, did a 2.50.on of my Tecra 8100 BIOS update
  It still does not.
  In my BIOS total ram is ok, so the computer knows that it is in the slot B, but when I try to boot the computer to a blue screen appears necessary a bios update. (Already done) APCI is not good.
  Someone has an idea?
  Now there is in the slot A - 64 MB
  Tried to put 256 MB in the B slot
  them, that nothing worked changed

  Hello

  Well, the blue screen error message usually appears because of the failure of the software matter or material. In case you I guess, apparently because of the new RAM.

  The fact is that you can upgrade the memory to the maximum. 512 MB.
  These modules are compatible:
  PC100 256 MB (PA3051U-1NME)
  PC100 128 MB (PA3005U)
  PC100 64 MB (PA3004U)

  I recommend that you check you modules and try to use another compatible.

• Tecra 8100: Question on the temperature of the processor and speed

  advice please, I installed a p3 900 processor in my tecra 8100 and he sees it only as a 700. Since the Bios was outdated, I downloaded the latest bios which had no effect on its speed. However, as the update of the bios fan never happens that maybe a coincidence?

  Can any body advise me the temp for the processor and the motherboard. My diagnostic software shows 55(c) of the motherboard and 43 for cpu, no fan activity at all. The original processor speed was 600 and I expect the 900 full because I think this is a 100 mhz bus.

  Any help or comment gladly received thanks.

  Hello Peter

  I'm not an expert, but maybe don windows to see the t the correct CPU speed. I recommend you to use a tool (clock THG) which indicates the speed of the processor.

• Tecra 8100, upgrading the BIOS, whitch that hard drive is taken in charge (40 GB)?

  Hallo,

  I have an old Tecra 8100 one I want to update BIOS. Who knows who is supported (20 GB, 40 GB) hard drive and where can I find the specifications?

  Thanks for your information.

  Hello

  As I m wrong not the Tecra 8100 does support an IDE HDD controller.
  In this case, it should be possible to use the 2.5 IDE HDD.

  I can't say much about the formats supported, but the fact is that the size of HDD supported depends on the HARD disk controller. The old controllers IDE up to what the ATA - 5 (also called Ultra ATA/66 or Ultra DMA/66) supported LBA 28 bits, which allows you to use the 120 GB HARD drive max.

  Since ATA - 6 (also called Ultra DMA mode 5 or Ultra-ATA100), you can use IDE hard drives of more than 128GB.

  So if you want to, you can check your IDE HDD controller using a hardware diagnostic tool (IE Everest home edition). Then you might find out what IDE controller is and what drives are supported.

  See you soon

• Tecra 8100: This HARD drive is supported for the upgrade?

  I want to improve the HD in a laptop Tecra 8100. However I can't find the HD player required to do this.

  Someone suggest where I can look?

  Hey Buddy, your notebook computer is an oldie.
  As far as I remember that the computer is about 6 years old.
  At that time, the supported laptop, 6GB, 8GB, 12GB, 15 GB, 18 GB, 20 GB HARD drive, and the disk 20 GB HARD is, in my view, a maximum size. More is not possible.

  I found kits of HARD drive you could use:
  PA3012U - 1 H 06 6 GB hard drive Kit II
  PA3027U - 1 H 12 12 GB hard drive Kit II
  PA3029U - 1:18 18 GB hard drive Kit II

• Tecra 8100: the wrong processor speed?

  I just bought a Tecra 8100 opportunity and told me the cpu speed to 800 MHz. This excerpt with the technical spec that I downloaded form the Support from Toshiba site.

  However, there is a program called Belarc advisor installed that the cpu is a P3 252 MHz. Windows XP system also P111 252 Mhz properties.

  Can someone advise n the correct speed?
  Thanx
  Mike Davies

  Right-click on my computer, go to properties. At the bottom of the first page must list the CPU speed and ram installed. Everything that is written there what is installed in the computer at that time here.

• The Tecra 8100 with a CD - RW or a dvd upgrade

  Hello
  I'm a bit of a beginner, but I hope it's a simple question - can I put my tecra 8100 with a CD - RW, or combo dvd cdrw drive? I think I've read enough to know about changing caddies & Hubcaps etc - I don't know which drive would work - SD-R2102?
  Any help gratefully received. !

• Tecra 8100 - CPU max, DVD - ROM and BIOS update issues

  1. I have a 500 MHz processor on my 8100. I would like to upgrade to maximum capacity. I think it's 800 MHz since it is the highest, the series went to.
  But if it's 800 MHz, any Mobile PIII on this frequency do? Or should I check for special settings of the processor?

  2. I don't have a floppy, or ways to get drive one. And I'm not going to ebay one just for an update of the BIOS. Any ideas? A bootable CD with the files will do?

  3. What is the location of the DVD-ROM and what alternative models can I use? The 8200 went up to 8 x DVD - RW. Could I go further?

  Thank you. I hope that my post is OK like this instead of three different positions.

  1 take a look at the other Tecra 8100 models to determine which processors are compatible.

  2. I don't think that would work a bootable CD, you must follow a special procedure to update the BIOS and requires a floppy drive. If there is a version of Windows, you must use that instead.

  3 upgrade the DVD player can be difficult because you must use the correct master/slave settings, and it must have the same design of the façade of the original.

  Personally, I'm selling the laptop and buy a second hand faster one. It can work out to be cheaper.

• Tecra 8100 - no sound except in mic!

  I have a Tecra 8100 Windows XP.

  I can't get sound on the speakers or the headphones emitted by the computer, such as beeps, CD, etc. But if I have to reactivate the microphone, I can hear through the headset, ensure that the microphone picks up (there are a few comments without microphones, proving that the speakers work physically). All volume controls are the maximum and reactivated. All devices are enabled and correctly selected in sound control panels.

  Any help would be welcome! Is the sound card, or am I missing a driver? Could not find anything else on the web with similar symptoms. Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  A good questions and I never heard of this topic which s...

  I think the fist, you should start to update the audio driver of your laptop. Therefore, you can see the Toshiba site for an update:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  Before installing the latest version, you must remove the old version first and reboot the laptop.

  Maybe a reinstall of Windows with the Toshiba recovery disc could also be useful and in the worst case, it s only a hardware malfunction and it must swap the motherboard. :(
