• Question about upgrading RAM on Satellite P100-423

  Hello

  can someone reassure me I'll buy the correct RAM and the best for my 2 Satellites. One is the P100-423.
  The other is Satellite Pro P100.

  (1) can I use modules of PC2 5300 DDR2 SO-DIMM 200 pin - 667 Mhz on both computers.
  I want to buy chips to 4 x 1 GB (all the same), so both will have 2 Gig ram PC.

  (2) I saw the bullets above with 533 Mhz, but told me I can use or 667 Mhz. Is this correct?
  667 Mhz would be faster and better is not it?

  (3) some chips are also designated PC2 - 4200 - instead of PC2-5300. Again, I can use either?

  (4) Finally, I always thought that it was better for if adapt to 2 memory chips to live the same size - that is why I want to use 2 x 1 GB chips.
  Yet, I was recommended to mount 1 x 1 and 1 x 2 GB in each pc.
  I know that IE a total of 4 GB is theoretical only 3.25 GB is possible.
  But asymmetric training will offer much greater performance on balance training 2 x 1 GB. ?

  Thank you very much for all the advice offered

  With the help of RAM slower is possible. I have another laptop to work with the iso 4200 5300. It works ok.

  However, using the exact speed is better because it gives the best performance. Your system calendar is set on those memories.

  However slower modules, but more RAM still will give you better performance.

  3G seems to be the max for Vista-32. The imbalance is obviously not optimal, but I expect that the performance is better with 2 GB.

• Satellite P100-286 - video RAM shared with RAM system

  Hello

  First note that I m French sorry for the bad English, I can use.

  I have a satellite P100-286 - PSPAGE (T7200 @ 2 GHz, 2 GB DDR2, Gef7900GS) and I noticed that some of the RAM (exactly 271MB) was reserved for the graphics card.

  I think that the graphics card has enough memory with its 512 MB, so I don't want to have a part of my RAM to be reserved for the Geforce. I have not found the way to reassign this small part of the system in the bios, and it is independent of the OS (I use Vista and debian and I see the booking even on memtest86) so I ve tried to flash with the latest BIOS but no change.

  Is there a way to 'recover' my memory?

  Thank you

  Additional question for fans of Linux: why can not I get sound on my laptop running Linux? :'(
  It seems that there is no error, but there is no sound even if the sound card, the "HDA Intel", seems to work perfectly, even with the latest updates of the kernel and alsa.
  I tried several Linux distributions, including Suse and Mandriva.

  Hello
  Unfortunately you can not affect the amount of memory shared by yourself since it is regulated by the BIOS/Chipset and depends on the amount of main memory that is installed.

  As far as I know that the shared memory is allocated flexible, which means that if a graphical application needs a graphics memory more then the system returns to the 271 MB shared memory. That's what I know of my machine... but I don't know, it might be different on other models.

  Otherwise I have no information on this shared memory thing. You can also see this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_Memory_Architecture

• Satellite P100-286: Explorer no longer responds when leaving hybernation

  I have re-installed Vista from disk Toshiba supplied with the cleaning machine, gone through the process of updating, that is microsoft and Toshiba updates and drivers.

  I have searched data base Microsoft on the errors of Hybernation for Vista, most are to do with the USB, but without coming through what im getting.

  My problem is that if you come from hybernation explore stops responding and does not recover.
  I have tried to restart Explorer by the Task Manager but still don't get the desktop or allow me to stop in the correct Manor.

  Regarding loans Vista boot USB that I use, which stuck ok to use it in vista, activate or disable the always the same problem.

  Do you have ideas about how this can be fixed.

  Based Satellite P100-286, but with 4gig of RAM

  I presume, after reboot, you can use new IE. Am I right about that?

• "Plugged in, not charging" Satellite P100-286

  Hey people, well I've been having this problem just now, I have a Satellite P100-286, OS: Windows Vista Home Premium and my problem is that after I m using my laptop for a little while on the current if I am it loads, it will stop charging and if I hover over the battery icon n the taskbar It will say "Plugged In no current charging" and the battery life will not be 100%.

  I also note that in this case, the light of battery on my laptop is not blue indicating the battery is full (of course), but neither is it orange indicating that he is in charge, but a few times I noticed that the light flashes when this happens not all the time. I played games with the power adapter plugged in and sometimes the laptop is off and when I turn it back on and "resume windows" warning message will appear saying 1% etc.

  Please someone help and give me some advice on why my battery doesn't charge sometimes, I searched on the net about it and it is not the charger or the battery itself, but it's a hardware problem, people say, please someone kind and cleaver out there help me please.

  I KNOW there are a LOT to READ IM SORRY... hehe... BUT PLEASE HELP: p

  > Please someone help and give me some advice on why my battery doesn't charge sometimes, I searched on the net about it and it is not the charger or the battery itself, but it's a hardware problem, people say, please someone kind and cleaver out there help me please.

  You should know that it is not easy to provide an exactly fault diagnosis without putting his hands on her.
  What we can do is to provide some sort of suggestions

  So I think it could be a faulty battery, so first the battery should be checked.
  If problems still persist, then electronic power supply failure might be possible

  However, the equipment should be checked and this can be done by an ASP in your country
  It would be desirable to communicate with these guys and ask for help

• Satellite P100-286: cannot change "Customization" options in the Panel

  Toshiba Satellite P100-286

  Hello guys!

  Can someone help to solve my problem? For some time, I am not able to change/enter in ma, for example: screensaver of personalization in Control Panel. I can use only 2 of 7 available in "Customization" options/links Could someone help me, please?

  "Customization" isn't the only one of all the icons I can't come. There is a bit more such as: keyboard, Mail, regional and Language Options etc. Looks like the links to each of them does not work for me! :(

  I don't want to go through reinstalling Windows Vista so any help to solve this problem will be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you very much!

  Krzysztof (Chris)

  PS. one last thing, I tried to restore my system to the previous point, but I'm not able to do.

  Hello

  It is very strange to believe me, it's not easy to say why it happened and, therefore, we must study a little bit
  Did you install third-party applications on your laptop that could have a negative influence on the operating system?
  Have you changed the rights of account user or something like that?
  How about Antivirus applications? Always update you this software? Maybe it s a kind of virus

• Satellite P100-286 - charge not completely even in stop...

  Hey all,.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite P100-286 and my problem is that when it s on and I plugged it load the light orange will be on indicating that the load and it will say connected load, but the battery life does not exceed 96%, yesterday he wouldn t go above 97%, and once again on the eve of 98% (lol) , the thing is when I have the laptop off and have supported (the witness orange still on indicate its charging) it will not load fully. When I turn on my laptop it is always 1% less than it was the last time I got it on as you can see by whats described above... I'm sorry for the long post, it of just quite difficult to explain.

  So can someone please help? Is it my battery what should replace is exhausting? Or is it something to do with the BIOS?
  Please help, thank you in advance for any response.

  Hello

  When the laptop is ON try to remove the battery and after a minute or two inside put once again. Please let me know what happens after that.
  To be honest, it is not easy to say why this happens exactly. I don't think THAT BIOS is responsible for this.

  Have you used the battery power intensively or your laptop worked mainly on feeding current?

• Can I use 2.1 speakers on my Satellite P100-286

  Can I use some 2.1 speakers on my computer toshiba laptop?

• How to get 5.1 sound on Satellite P100-286

  I had to replace my old P100-347 of 2 months, because of cracks on the hinge. The only model they had available was the P100-286. It is almost identical, except one thing, that I was not informed until I got it home and so too late to resume.

  Basically, the P100-347 had a SPDIF port and the 286 (as far as I can see), does not work. So, what I want to know is, what kind of sound that I am able to get the decision-making helmet.

  I plugged my Dolby Digital amp, and everything seems to be able to get is 2 audio channels, when I would be able to get 5.1 channels... In fact, I would like to have SPDIF, but don't think it will happen.

  Can someone advise and give me some advice on solving this.

  Thanks in advance
  Steve

  On the Satellite P100-286 S/PDIF port is not available and if you want to have 5.1 surround sound you need to use an external solution connected to the USB port. Google around. You will find quite different products, that you can use with your laptop.

• Satellite P100-286 - upgrade to 4 GB of RAM but BIOS only reports 3 GB of RAM

  Hello, I would like to know if someone can help me...!

  I have a portable P100-286 Toshiba with the following specifications:

  Processor Intel Core 2 Duo processor T7200 - 2 x 2 GHz processor
  2 GB RAM (2 x 1048)
  NVIDIAÃ? GeForce Go 7900 (memory: 512 MB)
  Vista Home Premium 32-bit

  Full specifications here:
  http://UK.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&DISC_MODEL=0 & highlightOption = 63188 & com decided .new = Yes .broadvision & PRODUCT_ID = 125204 #0

  According to this specification, the laptop can handle up to 4 GB of RAM:

  "Memory system: standard: 2 048 (1, 024 + 1, 024) MB, maximum of extension: 4 096 Mo, technology: DDR2 (533 MHz) RAM.

  I just upgraded using 2 x Corsair 2 GB of RAM Sodimm DDR2 667 MHz/PC2-5300. I understand that Vista 32 bit may not report all 4 GB of RAM (it is not, only 3 GB reports), but I understand that Vista Service Pack 1 can solve the problem.

  However... confusedly BIOS ALSO notes that 3 GB of RAM. Does anyone know why the BIOS is not seen all the 4 GB? I tried to read about it online, and some advocate a BIOS update. However, many people also say it would be extremely risky.

  Can someone give me some ideas as to what I can do to the BIOS then it recognizes all the 4 GB of RAM?

  Thank you very much!

  You're not 100% good. The 32-bit Windows OS cannot use the entire 4 GB due to the limitation of the 32-bit operating system. After the installation of Vista SP1 will display full 4GB but it will still use only 3 GB.
  To use all of the 4 GB, different components like CPU, BIOS, OS and chipset must support this. If one of these doesn't support 4GB while the laptop components will use only 3 GB.

  Update the BIOS

  People are right. The update of the BIOS must help to recognize the 4 GB in the BIOS.
  But it s also good that the update of the BIOS is risky.
  If you want to use a bad BIOS or bad procedure to update the BIOS that can damage the ROM. module

• Satellite P100-286 - HDD upgrade question

  I'm looking in the upgrade of my HDD, i.e. with the P100-286 Fujitsu MHV2200BT. I would like to find a disk with a RPM faster and perhaps a slightly greater capacity also.

  I found the information on the MHV2200BT and see that there is a box slightly larger than most portable 2.5 "HDD. SA is 12.5 mm height, rather than the usual 9.5 mm.

  This will make unfit to buy another HARD drive?
  I need to find another housing or casing for HARD drive?

  Here are the stats on the current model... http://www.fujitsu.com/us/services/computing/storage/hdd/mobile/mhv2200bt-sata.html

  I think to do this HARD drive to replace it... http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/320-GB-Western-Digital-WD3200BJKT-Scorpio-Black-25-SATA-300-7200-rpm-16MB-Cache-12-ms

  Thank you for any additional information.

  Hello

  Hmm the old HDD is 12.5 mm and the new is 9.5mmm
  Well I put t exactly how the HARD drive has been mounted in the P100 of boyfriend but in many cases, the HARD drive is placed in the media (media).

  If the new HARD drive would mingle not with this support.

  But why you put take t a 12.5 mm HARD drive? There are a lot of 2.5, 12.5 mm, SATA hard drive that would be 100% compatible with your laptop!
  Looking a little bit...

• How often has RAM of Satellite P100-324?

  Hello

  I ' am, thinking about to upgrade my Satellite P100-324 (PSPA6E) 4 GB of RAM, but did not know which one to choose.
  Initially, I have installed memory 533 MHz. My question is - 533 MHz limit for this model?
  or I can install memory 667 MHz and it will work on 667 MHz?

  Also if I install 4 gb - I'll see 3 GB, but will it still runs dual channel mode?

  Thanks for you help in advance.

  Hi guys,.

  This thing with 4GB-> / 3GB is not uncommon. The chipset is just to take a portion of system memory and turns to shared kept. Unfortunately, the manufacturer of the chipset does not tools release or someone set up a function to decrease/increase the shared video memory.

  So, in the case of 4 GB of RAM you have then 1 GB shared video memory.

  And what about dual channel: Yes it will still work on two channels.

  Greetings

• Upgrade CPU on Satellite P100-434

  Satellite P100-434 BIOS v 4.80 does support the Core2Duo T7500 Intel proccessor?

  I'm currently have T5500 and want to update to T7500, is the same thing but I don't know the motherboard/BIOS card can support this CPU?

  I advance thank you

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

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

  BTW: I m not sure but I think you can find similar topics related to upgrade CPU on P100. Use the advanced search in this forum. Maybe you'll find some interesting discussions.
