Is CPU upgrade on Satellite 2410-303 possible?

My Satellite 2410-303 has Pentium 4 Mobile 1.7GHZ processor. I want to upgrade its processor to Pentium 4 Mobile 2.8GHZ. I think that it is possible because its upper models have faster processor and that is unique difference between them.
Please, help me for this question and tell me is it possible?

Hello
You will be very lucky if someone has so good experiences with CPU upgrade on Satellite 2410 but on this forum you can find very nice comments about that. I have founded just two of them but very interesting. Check it out!

Satellite 2410-303 hangs when CPU cache level 2 was enabled

I have Satellite 2410-303 Bios version 1.40 and when i enable CPU cache level 2 the laptop dose not work and still hang.
So now I only enable CPU cache level 1 and disable cache level 2 so the laptop run slowly.

Hi
Well, what to say, the Level 2 cache is an external CPU memory.
Possibly there is something wrong with the CPU? Who knows
Did you try to update the BIOS? Check if its possible and if the newer BIOS version is available.
Sorry but I cannot suggest any other solutions because for me it looks like an hardware problem and in such case the ASP help is needed.
Best regards

Need SD TypA Controller specification for Satellite 2410-303

Hi,
at the moment we are working on QNX driver for SD controller. This device is integrated in my notebook - Satellite 2410-303 model.
SD controller is visible by O/S as:
Vendor ID = 1179h, Toshiba America Info Systems
Device ID = 805h, SD TypA Controller
Where can I find specification of this controller?
Regards,
Jacek

Hi Jacek
As Silas already said this is a user-to-user forum and I assume you need some details which are not available in the user manual.
To be honest I doubt the ASP could help you but of course its worth a try to contact the technicians
My first idea was a usage of some hardware diagnostic programs like Everest for example Maybe such programs could help you too.
Good luck

Memory upgrade on Satellite 2410

Hi.
I have a Satellite 2410-703 and i'd like to upgrade my ram to 1024. Now there are two SoDimm 256Mb@266Mhz (Pc2100).
My question is: may I use other Kingston module at 333 or 400 Mhz?
Are they compatible?
Thanks a lot.
Antonio

Maybe this site could help you:
http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=6083&ft=m&st=3
Generally you can also use the RAM modules with the 400Mhz speed because the notebook supports an FSB 400Mhz.
But its important that you use the right module specifications like 200-Pin PC2100 DDR SODIMM
Hopefully I coudl help you

CPU upgrade on Satellite A60

Hello, i want to upgrade the cpu on my Satellite A60 celeron d345, what kind of processors are supported?
Thanks

Hi
I can not give you any informations about the CPU prices because it depends on the computer dealer.
Mostly the online dealers are much cheaper. So simply use a search-and-compare prices engine in the net.
Now something about the motherboard compatibility:
The Toshiba Satellite A60 is a full size notebook PC based on the Intel Portability P4 processor, providing high-speed processing capabilities and advanced features.
In my knowledge the motherboard should be ale to handle the Intel P4 (Northwood), P4 (Prescott) and Celeron (Northwood) CPUs.
- P4 (Northwood) 2.66/2.8/3.06/3.2 GHz
- P4 (Prescott) 518(2.8 GHz)/532(3.06 GHz)/538(3.2 GHz)/552(3.46 GHz)/558(3.60 GHz)
- Celeron (Northwood) 2.5/2.6/2.7/2.8 GHz
- Celeron (Prescott) 325(2.53 GHz) / 330 (2.66 GHz) / 335(2.8 GHz) 340 (2.93G) / 345 (3.066 GHz) / 350(3.2 GHz)
But note; everything what you do is at your own risk!!

CPU upgrade on Satellite L30-101

Hi, I have a Toshiba Satellite L30-101. I've upgraded the RAM successfully to 2GB (2x 1GB) but I'm finding it incredibly hard to get information on processor replacements.
The laptop has the latest BIOS on it (3.10-WIN - 19/02/08) but when trying to find information regarding whats in it I'm hitting brick walls. Firstly the site > http://www.toshiba-tro.de/biosinfo/ < doesn't have my laptop on it,
Product Type: Notebook
Family: Satellite
Product Series: Satellite L Series
Model: ? unknown
Short Model No: ? unknown
I did hope I could stick an Intel Duo in but with the ATI chipset, I'm pretty sure it wont work but again without knowing whats within BIOS, compatible.. I'm lost. The only processor I can find which may work, same package, FSB, socket is an Intel Core Solo Processor T1350 which kicks out 1.86 GHz, not a massive difference and I'm sure it can't be the only replacement option.
Could someone and staff please help me with getting hold of BIOS info and compatible processors for my laptop. The current Intel Celeron M Processor 410 kicking out 1.46 GHz isn't good enough for Vista (cert on laptop) and basic multi tasking. Its lagging way too much even after a good tune up, ram upgrade, HD upgrade to 7200RPM. I'm in need of a processor upgrade but as mention finding it incredibly hard to obtain information of which would be compatible.
Sincerely,
Gourcuff

Hello
In my opinion your attempt to replace CPU is wrong. Why? Satellite L30 is not designed to offer some fabulous performance and it is designed for everyday usage. Best evidence for this was the price. It was not so expensive.
Can you please tell us why do you want to have new CPU? Do you use some special software?
Back to CPU replacement. As you probably know mobile computers have limited upgrade options and it is related to RAM and HDD upgrade. It is definitely unprovided for CPU upgrade and it is not supported. Specific design, especially cooling system is designed for certain CPU.
Due to all this you will not be able to find any relevant info about CPU replacement.
Check please this Toshiba document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

Hard Disk Upgrades on Satellite 2410

I know that I can just stick any drive that will fit in, but my question is:
Can I just use the recovery CD that came with my laptop to re-install windows XP onto the new hard disk, or do I have to get a seperate copy of XP?
The model of laptop is a Satellite 2410-something, and has 30Gb and I was thinking of going for a 80-100Gb disk.
Thanks in advance!

Hi James,
Your recovery CDs will work with whichever hard drive you choose to install.
With regard to your choice of drive please be careful with your choice of rotation speed. Your notebook has cooling only for the CPU heatsink so any extra heat generated by your hard drive will need to be able to dissipate naturally. The faster rotation speed on 5400 and 7200 RPM drives naturally generate more heat and this can cause problems for your notebook.
Obviously if you are not using disk intensive applications this can be lessened by allowing the hard drive to power down when not in use.
By the way I use a 5400RPM 80GB drive in my SA30 and the extra heat produced is only in evidence when I run a full virus/malware scan followed by a defrag and full image backup, and believe me the casing gets very hot indeed in the vicinity of the hard drive.
regards,

Bios upgrade for Satellite 1900-303

I have a Satellite laptop 1900-303.
I have downloaded Bios upgrade bios-20071126165418 but when i run the Check.exe it informs me it is the wrong upgrade.
But the text files in the upgrade include 1900-303.
Is there a different Satellite model to the Satellite 1900-303 called simply 1900-303 or is this the correct Bios, please help.

CDROM of my laptop is failing to read from CDs now days and current i want to install new Operating system due to this i decided to use external drive to overcome the problem, but this laptop also fail to boot from external usb connected CDROM and there is no option to set in bios setup to boot from other devices or to external device. From this problem i decided to look for upper version of Bios to upgrade the current one may be it will be able to boot from external drive.
From this situation and my decision can any one tell me if i used wrong or right decision to do this and why so please i need your assistance please.
Your advice is very important to me because i don't hav enough money to by new computer or to order cdrom for this machine and i need to make it working so that i can use for my schooling activity.

Question about CPU upgrade for Satellite A30-104?

Hello,
My Satellite A30-104 has recently come to the end of its warranty, and having had to open up the heatsink for cleaning and seeing that the CPU was accessible, I wonder if there is any (likely) scope for upgrading it.
The processor is a Celeron (Northwood) 2.6GHz. I'm not looking for more grunt, I'd prefer a lower-power chip, though the much larger L2 cache of a Pentium 4 is also desirable. I'd be very grateful if anyone could advise whether any upgrades are likely available, and if so which chips would be appropriate? If I can give any more useful spec information, please ask.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, thanks for the reply -- and sorry it went ignored so long, it turns out I hadn't configured my email watches correctly :(
I appreciate that it's really a job for a technician, and I don't want to brick a perfectly good computer, but I think its EOL is not far off anyway so I'm prepared to be a little more invasive than before.
I know that I can get at the CPU, and I know the basic precautions for physically tampering with PC internals.
What I'm first of all concerned about is this: if I replace the CPU, and it doesn't function with the laptop, can this damage other parts of the system such that it'd no longer work by replacing the original?
The Celeron puts out a great deal of heat (all the time) but isn't it fair to assume that a P4-M will be less hot?

CPU upgrade on Satellite M30-106

Hi folks
Could do with some help please?
Just got an old Toshiba Satellite M30-106 a few weeks ago and [to be fair] it runs not bad with xp on it. I purchased another 2 gig DDR which does make a difference speed wise but can I upgrade the processor from the Intel Pentium M processor 725 1.60 GHz front side bus : 400 MHz,2nd level cache : 2 MB thats in it just now ?
Can it take a higher CPU if so whats the highest? Would be very gratefully of some advice please.
Thanks in advance.......

At first I must say that I agree with you that this notebook runs well with WXP. At least this notebook model is designed for WXP. ;)
I found some info about CPUs on Satellite M30:
+The Satellite M30 computer is equipped with an Intel Banias Processor, which+
+incorporates a math co-processor, a 64KB L1 cache memory and a 1MB L2 cache+
+memory. The processor runs with one of the following speeds:+
+Intel Banias Processor 1.40GHz (1.35V) / 1.20GHz (0.85V)+
+Intel Banias Processor 1.50GHz (1.35V) / 1.20GHz (0.85V)+
+Intel Banias Processor 1.60GHz (1.35V) / 1.20GHz (0.85V)+
+Intel Banias Processor 1.70GHz (1.35V) / 1.20GHz (0.85V)+
So maybe you can use this fastest 1.70GHz CPU. I don't think you will see big difference.
Best thing you can do is to upgrade RAM to max and optimize preinstalled WXP and you will be happy with this oldie.

Windows 8 Upgrade for Satellite C870D-105 possible?

Hi out there,
I own a Satellite C870D-105 Partnumber PSCA2E.
Does anyone know whether it is possible to upgrade my Win7 Home Premium to Win 8 Pro via the Windows Upgrade Assistant?
So far I haven't been successful and the part numbe does not appear in the compatibility matrix offered by Toshiba.
Is there any chance that this model will be included?
I bought it with the marketing promise that is possible to upgrade.
Have I been fooled?

*@ mgoehring*
First of all you have to install Win 8 system.
Then after Win 8 installation you could use the Toshiba Win 8 Upgrade Assistant to get Toshiba Win 8 drivers.
Toshiba Win 8 upgrade assistant DOESNT install Win 8 system BUT ONLY Win 8 drivers/tools.

CPU Upgrade on Satellite L30-134

Has anyone managed to upgrade the CPU on one of these yet??? Ive already maxed out the memory, but its still a bit slow if you know what I mean...:P
Ive been looking at the Core2 SLV3W 2x1.33Ghz, same operating temperature and FSB, both socket 478/9 but not sure if the BIOS is going to chuck a teddy, the Pentium mobiles look a little to hot to run on this board, although its amazing what you can do with a dremel tool and a bit of copper tubing, if needs be I will doctor the existing cooling....
Any feedback or suggestions greatfully recieved.

i mate,
unfortunately no one here would be able to give you really good information which could be useful for you. Since youre a Pro you should check e.g. this site: http://www.irisvista.com/tech/
The BIOS cannot be modified but if the chipset is able you can try it. The socket is always the same so the package should fit in the hole ;)
But I recommend you NOT to modify the cooling system because its aligned to work with the whole system together. The system would perhaps run a little bit "non-cooler" and wouldnt be quiet as before but it should work.
So, how you see on your own. I am with you but I cannot give you proper information since I am just modding desktops (and already upgraded a notebook with some new CPU so I know something about it and I can just tell you: Dont ask here. Just read the topics and you will see why :) )
Good luck and Greets

CPU Upgrade on Satellite L30?

Tried searching but didn't get an answer.
Bought a laptop from ebuyer the other week, and so far so good, but good do with a bit more juice.
Currently running a CoreDuo 1.73 processor, wondering if Core2 or something a bit better will suit.
Heard something about a bit of softawre i'd need?
Could some one a) inform me what processors work
b) what i need to do to go abuot it

Hi buddy,
believe me, it would be better to buy a another L30 with a better cpu or another toshiba notebook with a better cpu than trying to upgrade your machine.
Some arguments whys not good to do it:
1. Its too complicated for if youre not at least a technician which is familiar with MOBILE COMPUTER SYSTEMs because a notebook is not the same electronic like a desktop.
2. How do you know which component fits? You have to find out the RIGHT partnumber of the manufacturer, otherwise you will have the wrong part and every manufacturer has its own hardware design and its own way to put components together. (like cpu, ram, bla...its not like you mean everything common like a desktop computer)
3. too expensive vs. performance gain = you would not really achieve a huge performance gain. Not the one you expect. I am telling so many users my experiences with trials of upgrading core components. I am a technician but even for me it does not make sense anymore to upgrade a cpu in a notebook. I tried it with 4 (!) machines, and two of them have now defective mainboards. And dont forget what I told you: I am working as a computer technician and I repair almost all brands which arrive our service center.
So, please forget your idea, upgrade your RAM and your harddisk and otherwise buy a new machine if youre unsatisfied with the actual performance of your rig.

Is graphic card upgrade on Satellite L300-21W possible?

Hi!
I`m thinking to buy Toshiba Satellite L300-21W but i wat to play some games on it like Cod2 but I think that her serial graphic card is weak so my question is:
" CAN I REPLACE GRAPHIC CARD WITH BETTER ONE OR NOT( and with which one if you know)!?!?!??!"
Thank you!

As far as I know graphic card on mobile computers cannot be upgraded. This is also described in follow document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm
So if you want to play different games with your notebook pick up info about models with better graphic cards.
I can recommend you to check Satellite A300/A350 notebook models.
Talk with your local dealer.
