Re: RAM upgrade on Satellite 1800-700

I would like to upgrade my Satellite 1800-700 memory to 1024 RAM. My operating system is Windows XP. I currently have 512 RAM and the BIOS 2.20 TRAD.
However, it would allow me to install 2x512 RAM.
Please can anyone help?
Thank you kindly.

I have found your laptop specifications:
Satellite 1800-700 Memory Specifications
Standard Memory 128 MB (removable)
Maximum Memory 512 MB
Memory Expansion 2 sockets
Memory Comments PC133 SDRAM SODIMMs
CPU Type 850MHz Intel Mobile Pentium III
Model Comments 100MHz FSB
So, as you see, the maximum supported memory is 512 mb

RAM Upgrade on Satellite L30-11D

My brother has a Satellite L30-11D and he has bought an additional 2GB RAM to upgrade from 512MB.
HE has sent me an email - extract below, but does not get regular access to Internet and therefore no time to post this.
My laptop had 512 MB ram and I was told by Toshiba etc that it could be upgraded to 2 GB. I obtained 2 x 1 GB cards installed them.
The problem is that if I remove the 512 MB card the laptop doesn't see the GB cards at all, so I put the 512 card back in and that was OK, then I put a 1GB card in and that worked OK, thinking it might be a dud card I triedthe other card plus the 512 and that works.
Also if I put either one of the GB cards on their own in it works.
According to Toshiba the computer can be upgraded to 2 GB RAM - so what am I doing wrong.
Any ideas would be appreciated."

Hi
I googled and found this Satellite L30-11D specification page:
http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&com.broadvis ion.session.new=Yes&PRODUCT_ID=128130
According to this page the Sat L30-11D can be upgraded to 2GB RAM (2 x 1GB)
You should use the 200pin DDR2 RAM (533 MHz) modules.
I think the notebook does not recognize the 2GB RAM due to the compatibility issues You should try RAM modules from another manufacturer. Maybe Kingston would be ok.

Ram Upgrade on Satellite P500 - from 4GB to 6 GB

I get the feeling that I'm asking a stupid question but here goes.
Just bought a P500 with 4Gb memory and decided to go with the recommended 2Gb upgrade. Went to install the ram chip and could only find 2 slots both of which are occupied with the existing 2Gb chips.
Is there another expansion slot that I'm missing or have I been sold a lemon in the form of the recommended 2Gb upgrade?
Thanks and Happy New Year

Hey,
No, there is no hidden RAM slot because notebooks are equipped with 2 RAM slots only but usually its enough.
So for an upgrade you have to buy a 4GB module and replace it with one 2GB module. The other 2GB module you can still use, then you an amount of 6GB. :)

Questions about ram upgrade of Satellite L100 (PSLA3L)

I have the above laptop and a new stick of Ram, don't have a manual however are there instructions for upgrading this?
I've opened the back and type of clip that holds the RAM is unfamiliar to me. I can see how it goes in but it doens't clip in easily which leads me to belive i'm missing somthing, either that or it requires an ungodly amount of force.
Grateful for any assistance

Why you dont take a look into the user manual???
There is an detailed instruction placed ;)
Simply remove the cover, lift one side of the insulator sheet and fit the modules connectors into the computers connectors at about 45 degree angles. Press the module careful to ensure a firm connection.
Push the module down so it lies flat. Latches on either side will click into place to secure the module
Thats all

BSOD after RAM upgrade on Satellite L350-14F

Hi,
I have a L350-14F and i upgraded my ram with 2x2GB PC5300- 667mHz
When i start the laptop in the bios i see 4096 of ram but when i restart the laptop i have a bleu screen.
PFN_LIST_CORRUPT
STOP: 0x0000004E (0x0000008D, 0x00090ET2, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
windows vista 32 bit sp2 French
bios 1.5

According to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/291806/ (add fr to this link to read it in French) faulty memory module is one of possible source of such errors.
Also it may be caused by driver. And this is the worst case, because any 32-bit (actually x86) windows can NOT operate with 4GBs of RAM due to its architecture (there are some "virtual disk drivers" that can do this by tricks).
Memory addresses above 3GB (or 3.1-3.3 GBs) are reserved for hardware needs. This may interfere with OS memory management and causes BSOD. It is very hard to locate and fix it (at least remotely).
1. Interchange modules with each other - bad contact may cause faults.
2. Remove one module and test memory (memtest+ is the best tool for this), then replace it with the second one and test memory again. This may or MAY NOT show defective module.
3. If modules seem to be OK after memory tests, you can try any live linux distro (e.g. Ubuntu). If it falls down you will be sure about faulty memory.
If not - replace this pair with another model/brand. Doesn't matter whether or not modules are in "compatibility list" for your laptop - practical way is the only way.
But this may be iterative.
And first of all - check manual for memory configuration (2 GBs, 2+2GBS, 2+1GBs) and memory type (PC5300- 667mHz etc.).

After RAM upgrade on Satellite L30-10S only one RAM stick is recognized

I just added an 1GB Crucial Ram stick into the L30-10S (PSL33E), but only the 1GB get recognized, the Hyundai stick (512MB), which was supplied with the laptop, isn't been used by the system anymore.
I tried switch around, but I can only get 1 RAM stick to work at the time, either 1GB, when both rams are placed in the slots or if only the 1GB is installed or 512MB when I leave the 1GB out.
Did anyone actually managed to get 2 Stick running simultaneously, on this system?
BTW CPU-z did recognize both sticks and reports correctly 1536MB, the BIOS however only 1GB, actually less, since some is taking by the graphics card.
The BIOS version on my system is V2.80, dated 03/05/2007 and both memory are the same speed PC2-4200.

Did you really read all those topics???
From http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=22405:
"I heard about a user how has Samsung 512mb and Kingmax 1gb ram in his L30 and everything is fine, he has no problem with it.
I have two 512mb Samsung modules and have no problem."
From http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=23014:
"You can use 667Mhz modules, but they'll work on 533 Mhz. I read in another forum about a guy, how has 533Mhz and 667Mhz RAM in his L30, and he has no problem."
L30 series supports memory up to 2gb, and if you use memory from a reliable brand, you'll have no (compatibility) problem. Maybe Crucial ram is not the best choice. As I see all those guys have problem with Crucial ram. Something's wrong with it...
And don't forget something: opening a new topic won't help you, if nobody can solve the problem in another topics...
PS: Try Kingmax, Kingston, Samsung, Corsair modules. I never had problem with those brands.

Upgrade Satellite 1800-400 from ME to XP Pro ??

Anybody managed a satisfactory upgrade of a Satellite 1800-400 or similar (384MB RAM, 20GB HD, 800 MHz Celeron)from Win ME?
Would prefer to Upgrade to XP Pro, but clean install 2nd choice.
If I format HD for clean install, would an Upgrade version of XP recognise the Toshiba recovery CD as a legit copy of ME - I heard there may be problems?
I intend to upgrade BIOS and collect all available Drivers for this model offered by Toshiba for XP, but will there still be problems with any of the hardware?
Do the Toshiba Drivers need to be loaded in a special order, and is that during or after the XP install?
Is XP likely to be faster/slower/about the same as ME, with above hardware specification??
Any advice welcome, as I haven't upgraded operating system on a laptop before, and the potential problems seem greater than with desktops.
Geoff

Hi
I dont see any reason why WXP should not work on your unit properly. On this forum I have read many topics where users reports about WXP on older units as yours.
Please check Toshiba download page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp and there you will find drivers for WXP.
After WXP installation install display and sound driver at first. After that install other hardware drivers. The next step is Toshiba stuff installation:
Common modules
Controls
Power saver
Utilities.
It is important to install common modules as first.

RAM & HDD upgrade on Satellite L30-115

Hi,
I have a Toshiba L30 - 115, and I want to upgrade from its default to 1GB / 2GB RAM and 160GB / 250GB Hard Disk is that possible and if so can you provide me the item number of the modules and the capacity of each. I also would like to know whether the system would support any upgrade such as I wish to do so?

Hello
Answer for RAM upgrade is very easy. This Satellite notebook can handle with 2 GB RAM max and compatible DDR2-400/533 1GB memory module has part number PA3411U-1M1G. you can use two 1GB modules and upgrade it to maximum.
About HDD upgrade is not easy to offer precise info because I know that Toshibas specification says that HDD can be upgraded up to 80 GB. Unfortunately I didnt find any public document about exact list of compatible HDDs but I believe you can upgrade it with 120 GB HDD.
Sorry buddy but I didnt find more info. Maybe someone with L30 will post here about HDD upgrade.

Re: Memory upgrade for a Satellite 1800-921 PIII 1.1GHz...

I am trying to find out the memory upgrade for my Satellite 1800-921 PIII 1.1GHz... Part Number : PS183E-00HTT-EN .
It currently has a Nanya 256MB SDR-133 Mhz-CL3 & I undestand it can be upgraded with an additional 256Mb card.
The only problem is I cant seem to find one compatible! Any ideas what is require & where I could get it from?

Hello
The compatible module is PC100 256MB with part number PA3069U-1M25.

Re: Satellite A660 - No boot after RAM upgrade

I have just gotten 8GB of RAM for my Satellite A660, it is Corsair CM3X4GSD1066 4GB PC-8500 (1066MHz) 204-pin SO-DIMM DDR3 RAM CL7.
The system posts fine and the 8GB is showing up in BIOS but once its clears post and goes to load Windows it stops on the black screen, the cursor flashes a few times then it stops. I have left it for about 5 minutes and it wont boot through.
Please Help.
I have replaced the 4GB sticks and it works fine.

Hello
For me it sounds like that the modules are not compatible or have defective sectors
As Akuma wrote, such performance modules are risky in notebook because you dont have any options to change the latency values as on desktop computers. So I always prefer Kingston modules for notebook RAM upgrade.
But before you buy other modules, try a BIOS update and load the default settings.

Satellite 1800-400, what cpu?

Hey people,
Just got me a second hand 1800-400 but finding it a little slow. I've order more RAM(256) to go with the 128 it already has. Hopefully this will help.
But I was thinking, What other/faster CPU's can this little machine handle? I can get a P3 1Ghz cpu from ebay cheap but would the system run it?
Cheers
Sym

Hi,
I have looked at the specs of some other Satellite 1800 models and found out that they are using different processors. Most of them are using Celeron 1.0GHz and 1.1GHz. I also found a model with P3 1.0GHz (1800-804). But I think it is using another chipset, so I'm not sure if you can use a P3.
By the way I don't think that a little better CPU will increase the performance so much. Upgrading RAM is more effective.

Memory upgrade on Satellite A60-218

Hi,
Is it possible to upgrade the memory for the Satellite A60-218 models?
I've heard that the memory is onboard (internal) and cannot be replaced. Is this true?
If not, could somebody give me a hint where can I find the memory modules on this model?
I have tried disassembling it without success.
Thanks!
Levente

Hello
Just for info: Satellite A60 has 512 MB internal memory and one sot only is available for upgrade. This unit can handle with max 1,5 GB of RAM. On the bottom side in the middle there is placed memory module cover. Remove it and you will find RAM slot.
For RAM upgrade you can use follow compatible memory modules:
PC2700 512MB (PA3312U-1M51)
PC2700 1024MB (PA3313U-1M1G)
If you have more questions please write again.
Bye and good luck!
