Can I install 4GB RAM in an Satellite A200-1VP?

Bought an A200-1VP a couple of weeks ago and think it could benefit from a bit more RAM. I am aware that under vista 32bit I won??t be able to access all 4GB but whatever I could gain would be a bonus (3.5Gb?) can 4GB be installed in my notebook without any problems?
And just out of curiosity is the processor upgradable? Highly doubt id end up doing it but would be nice to know?
Hope anyone can help
Thanks

Hi
You can install 4Gb on that machine it may only recognise around 3.5gb due to system resource requirements,
It takes 2 x 2gb 667MHZ SODIMMS

  • Can I install 4GB RAM in my Satellite A100-033?

    I have a Satellite A100-033 (PSAANE-03J02GEN). The manual says that it will support only 2GB RAM maximum. Does anyone know if it will in fact support 4GB? I have installed 2x1GB instead of the supplied 2x512MB, and am tempted to install 2x1GB? Will this work, or is there some restriction in the motherboard or BIOS which means that the larger RAM won't be recognised? Can anyone help?

    Thanks. I agree that the fact that my laptop's specification says "2GB maximum RAM" is a bad sign, but I have found in the past that specifications aren't always completely accurate, which is why I enquired.
    My processor is a 1.6GHz Intel T2060. A check on my laptop (by the program "Belarc Advisor") says that my motherboard is an Intel Capell Valley (NAPA) CRB, and that my BIOS is a Phoenix 6.00 07/12/2007. Is there any way whereby I can find out if this combination will in fact recognise 4GB of RAM?
    I know that 4GB only yields a little over 3GB usable RAM, but I would still like to increase the amount of RAM which I have, if this is possible, but obviously I don't want to spend money on 2BG chips which then don't work in my laptop.
    Any suggestions gratefully received!

  • Can I install 64-bit OS on Satellite A200?

    Can I install a 64-bit OS on Satellite A200 equipped with a intel t2350 proccessor?

    Of course you can install the 64bit OS on the Toshiba notebooks but the question is if you will get the compatible 64bit drivers well, I think if you will install the 64bit OS you will have to run the notebook without the Toshiba tools and drivers because the 64bit drivers are not available on any of Toshiba pages
    In such case you will have to search on chip manufacture sites for compatible drivers!

  • NB100 - Can I install 4GB RAM?

    I have read there are 4GB 200 pin memory modules availables. Does anybody know if toshiba netbook supports it?
    I have an nb100 but don't mind to move into a nb305 if this supports instead the nb100

    I will try to be more specific
    a) NB 100 has only one slot available for memory upgrade. Does it support 4gb? Processor atom N270.
    b) NB 300, I am not sure how much memory slots it has. Does it has 2? If it is one, again question about 4 gb. Processor N450.
    I am not asking for games, it is only for mail and office app. I use vpn client and many windows. Time the system is very slow and maybe more memory improve performance.
    I like this type (netbooks) of device. It is very greatfull if you move a lot of, as me. At my office I have a large lcd for more comfortably work.

  • Can't install XP display driver on Satellite A200-27N

    Hi,
    i did install xp on my a200-27n, but when i try to install the dispaly diver http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/display-20070809122620.zip, it give an message error that the ware is not validated for my computer
    pls i need help

    Have you read the installation instructions?
    You can find it also on the Toshiba website and list you should use as recommended installation order.
    Before you can install the display driver you must install:
    1 Windows XP
    2 Windows Updates
    3 Sun Java 2 Runtime Environment
    4 Intel ICH8M Chipset Utility
    5 Intel 965GM VGA Driver
    If you did do this and cant install the driver, install it manually. Go to the device manager => right click on the graphic card => update driver

  • Satellite L300-145 - BSOD appears if I install 4GB RAM

    Hi all
    i have this Satellite L300-145 PSLB0E-03601LPT and I want to install 4GB RAM but when I install 4GB on SO boot BSOD appears.
    I try to change with other brand memorys with equal modules, I try to install Windows 7 64bit, Linux 9.10 64bit and it the same things. I try also to update BIOS but it the same.
    I think it is Remap memory feature on bios but doesnt have that option.
    So what i need to do?
    My laptop have now 3GB
    CPU: T2390 1,86Ghz 533Mhz
    CHIPSET: GM965
    RAM:2GB DDR2 533Mhz
    HDD:Hitachi 200GB
    After upgrade
    CPU: T8300 2.4Ghz 800Mhz
    RAM: 2GB DDR2 667Mhz
    HDD: Seagate 7200.4 250GB
    I realy need 4GB

    Im sorry i confuse with other chipset.
    But if i can get 800Mhz and 3GB 667Mhz Dualchannel its very good.
    But i dont understand the BSOD.
    This is my test:
    1) I install 3 difrent 2GB modules and i get the same BSOD on boot OS, but i can enter on bios and i can see on memory info. 4096MB.
    2) I try to instal 3GB and laptop boot well but i find one problem if i put Bank0:1GB and Bank1:2GB laptop boot ok but if i swap i get the same error BSOD.
    I think one slot cannot address 2048MB of size.
    If i install only 2GB on that slot i get the same BSOD.
    I have 3 tips of ram
    2GB 533Mhz 667Mhz and 800Mhz with difrent brands and chips.
    why i this BSOD only appears on boot OS and i can enter on bios without a problem?
    Sry for my poor english
    Best regards

  • Can i use 4gb ram card instead of (2x2) 2gb cards in macbook pro 15" 2.0 ghz

    can i use 4gb ram card instead of (2x2) 2gb cards in macbook pro 15" 2.0 ghz

    Hi John,
    If your MBP is a 2011, yes, and here is one example: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/1333DDR3S4GB/
    If your MBP is from 2006, the other year Apple made a 2GHz, the answer is no, as the max RAM is 2GB.
    Given that it appears you already have 2x2GB installed, I'm "guessing" you have the 2011 model, so the answer is yes.

  • Can I use 4GB RAM on my MSI K8N Diamond with Windows 7?

    Can I use 4GB RAM on my MSI K8N Diamond with Windows 7? I have put 4GB DDR 1 in my motherboard but windows 7 says (2.75GB usable)...
    Regards, Jay

    It depends highly on how much hardware (add-in cards) you have installed. If you have two VGA-cards, then it's likely that usable memory stays below 3GB. If you take some hardware out, you will see the usable memory increase a bit, but you won't reach the full 4GB. It will go as far as about 3.25 or so.

  • Can not instal Win7 WLAN Driver for Satellite C660-168

    I can't install WLAN driver on my Satellite C660-168 after Windows 7 installing.
    What's the problem?

    Hi Admiral,
    And why you cant install it? Do you get an error message or what happens exactly?
    As PauPau wrote you have Broadcom WLAN card so you have to download Broadcom WLAN driver that can be downloaded on Toshiba WLAN portal.
    Before installing the driver make sure you are logged in as Administrator or with Administrator rights. ;)

  • Can I install Windows XP on a Satellite A300D-14P

    Can I install Windows XP on a Satellite A300D-14P?
    ...thx for any info and/or help...

    Hello
    Just to clarify something:
    - if you want to install WXP but not changing BIOS settings (leave it to AHCI mode) at the beginning of installations procedure you must load SATA driver pressing F6. Thats only way to install WXP successfully
    - you can install WXP without SATA driver but you must change the settings to Compatibility. Everything will work well but if you change the settings to ACHI back you will get BSOD every time when you try to start WXP
    If you want to install SATA driver please install WXP using SATA driver before the WXP installation starts.

  • Satellite A200-1vp with Vista - CD/DVD drive failure code 39

    Hi,
    I have been burning and watching DVDs on my Satellite A200-1vp, with vista, since February, the last time I burned anything was a couple of weeks ago.
    Suddenly there's a problem, no response when I load a disc and my divx player tells me no recorder found.
    When I search in the device manager I get the message " windows cannot load the driver for this hardware" (code 39) " driver is corrupted or missing".
    I tried uninstalling it and using the Toshiba upper/lower limit filter repair tool but on restart it still failed to install.
    Should i try the Toshiba Recovery Disc and loose a lot of unbacked up programs/files, as last resort?
    Would that work?
    Anybody got any ideas?

    Here is an interesting Microsoft knowledge article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/270008/en-us
    You should firstly access the device manager and should remove the CD/DVD drive from the device list.
    Then should access the registry and should remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters values completely from the following registry key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    Reboot the notebook and check if the CD/DVD drive would work again!

  • Can't install more RAM, what will help?

    OK need a bit of help.
    My elderly iMac has been a bit problematic lately, spinning beach balls, laggy, that chuggy noise which I always think is Spotlight indexing... (can't think of a more technical way to describe it!). I've just nosed around and saw a thread saying take a look in Activity Monitor at System Momory. This is what mine shows.
    The thread I looked at kept saying 'are there a lot of pageouts, without actually defining what 'A lot' of page outs were! Nosed a bit more and think I may have too many page outs?
    Now, thing is, I'm maxed out on RAM, in fact this machine should only take 4GB but I  managed to get it to accept 6MB, after doing some research and finding it was possible. So, I can't install any more RAM. Am also on Mountain Lion.
    I have to trundle on with this Mac for a while longer. What can I do to improve my page outs and general speed of machine? Is it purely not having lots of applications open at once? I'm a designer so have CS6 installed, and use InDesign, Illust. and Photoshop. Is there anything I can do to get a bit more life out of this trusty warrior? Everything else on it works just fine.
    I'm not 100% techie, but can usually sort out my  mac problems if someone explains clearly!
    Spec of iMac: Alu 2.8GHz C2D 6GB SDRAM (should only take 4GB SDRAM but found out that it can take 6) 1TB HD

    There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory and virtual memory. That can happen for two reasons:
    You have a long-running process with a memory leak (i.e., a bug), or
    You don't have enough memory installed for your usage pattern.
    Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
    When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
    View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
    from the menu bar.
    If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
    The process named "Safari Web Content" renders web pages for Safari and other applications. It uses a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider it a prime suspect.
    Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing softwre. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. If you don't use an HP printer, remove the software. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
    The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command: 
    sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
    where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.
