DDR3 RAM usage on Satellite T130

Hello, can i use DDR 3 1066 MHz instead of DDR 3 800 MHz in my Satellite T130-12K ?
Thanks in advance

Notebook will not run faster. I dont know what is the front side bus speed on this model but I presume it must be 800MHz.
HERE is the specification. Generally speaking you can use faster modules but they will not run on maximum speed and they will be throttled.

  • Can BIOS update enable usage of 2GB DDR RAM modules on Satellite P10-554?

    Hello,
    I got a Satelite p10-554 and want to upgrad my RAM.
    I know by default the max u can install is two 1GB Kits.
    Is there any Bios-Update, that enables 2GB kits???
    Thanx a lot!
    Ron

    Hello Ron
    The same situation with my P20! Unfortunately there is no BIOS update to allows more RAM usage.

  • Satellite Pro P300-1AY - Can it be upgraded to DDR3 RAM?

    I currently have 3,072 (2,048 + 1,024) MB | maximum expandability : 8,192 MB / technology : DDR2 RAM (800 MHz)
    And was wondering if this could be upgraded to 4,096 (2,048 + 2,048) MB / DDR3 RAM (1066 MHz) .

    Hi!
    No, you cant upgrade the notebook with DDR3 RAM. The point is that these modules will not fit in the RAM slots and they have different specifications.
    If you want to upgrade the RAM to 4GB you have to buy DDR2-RAM. You can buy it from every manufacture that you want but I have good experience with Kingston modules.
    And you know already the requirements for 4GB? You need a 64bit OS to use it! ;)

  • High RAM usage when system is 'idle' (EtreCheck)

    Hey guys,
    First timer here. Ok here's my question :
    I recently bought a secondhand Macbook pro 15 inch. For me it's a huge upgrade coming from a 2009 13 inch Macbook pro. Because a friend of mine wants to buy my old one I was doing some diagnostics on the 13 inch, which has 4 GB of RAM, and found out it had a lot of inactive RAM usage and wired usage, almost 2 GB, due to a lot of launchdaemons etc which were hogging the RAM. I used terminal to kill these agents and deamons and now that system is running smooth again. Maybe it's wise to mention that the 13 inch runs on ML.
    3 days ago I did a clean Yosemite install on the 15 inch, swapped the HDD for a SSD. And already the activity monitor shows a whopping 4,28 GB of RAM usage while I'm typing this with just safari open. I thought I could do the same trick as I did with my 13 inch but it didn't help, had some java deamons and helpers and deleted those. In terminal I looked up everything via launchctl list and there's nothing unusual going on as far as I can see. I had VirtualBox for one day but uninstalled it using their uninstaller. I have no clue what's eating all this RAM.  Please help me out so I can be a proud owner of my second macbook for atleast 5 years to come. Thanks in advance.

    The page outs indicate the OS has not recently swapped any memory to disk.
    Apple made changes to 10.9 that are the same on 10.10. Memory will be used as much as possible. It is the fastest storage on the system, keeping it free is a waste of your time - data loads fastest from RAM.
    This is a good explanation…
    http://arstechnica.com/apple/2013/10/os-x-10-9/17/#compressed-memory
    The system also frees 'cache' memory when another process has more need to use it. Eventually it will swap to disk (which is slow) so the OS also compresses memory before swapping is needed.
    Please avoid killing launchd jobs, many will simply restart or relaunch again later. Eventually you may kill one that hangs the OS & corrupts the disk via a forced shutdown.
    I do suspect you may see issues when RAM does get low, but there is no evidence of that here. The memory pressure graph will show red when swapping - every other colour is fine. Wait until you see red & then note the top memory users.
    If you don't want java installed you need to find removal instructions & get it all off the system, simply stopping the update checks will leave Java in an old state - terrible for security.
    Also do you know what 'Live' is? It crashed recently, if it keeps doing that it may be worth a look, however it may just be one if the things that was effects by the killing spree

  • High kernel_task RAM Usage in Yosemite 10.10.1

    Hello All,
    No matter what I'm running, I always have high RAM usage with kernel_task. I've looked around the other threads and never found a definitive solution. I wouldn't call it crippling to my system but I would like to resolve the issue. Below is a screenshot of my activity monitor, and my Etrecheck run. Please let me know anything I can do to reduce the RAM usage of this process.

  • Kernel_task high RAM usage

    Hi everybody,
    I have same problem on both iMacs i use (iMac9,1 and iMac10,1). Both updated from Maveriks to Yosemite some months ago and since last 2 weeks kernel_task "eat" to much RAM.
    I tried to solve with all kind of resets, move files from ACPI_SMC _PlatformPlugin.kext, hardware test, reinstall and restore from time machine and finaly also with a complete clean reinstall (without TM restore!). But kernel_task run with too much RAM usage.
    I feel frustrated and I seem to be back like Windows users!
    So, i think problem could be associated to some software upgrade (DropBox? Skype? Osx update? don't know). Anyone knows if there are usefull debugs system log for kernel_task usage?

    On this report kernel_task ram is not displayed but you can see it on task manager image
    Any help is apreciated.
    Thank you!

    There is nothing wrong with your kernel_task memory usage.  It is consistent with the amount of RAM you have installed.
    The kernel_task manages virtual memory page tables.  The more RAM the the more table space consumed.  800MB memory usage for kernel_task is in line with having 8GB of RAM in your Mac.
    My 16GB Macbook Pro kernel_task has 1.15GB of memory.  People with 32GB Macs, have more like 1.5GB.  And Macs with 4GB have something around 500MB more or less.
    Tangent observation.  Unless you have a Paid LogMeIn account, the free version has been discontinued, and you should most likely remove the LogMeIn components via the LogMeIn uninstaller.  Your use of TeamViewer.com is a good substitute for the free LogMeIn.
    You system has been up for just 7 and a half hours
        OS X 10.10.2 (14C109) - Time since boot: 7:21:25
    But you have
        117.96 GB    Page-ins
    That averages out to 4.6MB per second.
    Chances are you could either benefit from not running as many concurrent things (maybe remove the large number of kernel extensions, launch daemons, launch agents you have installed), maybe only run VirtualBox when you really need to run Windows (assuming it is Windows, but I guess it could be Linux or Solaris X86), or have fewer tabs open in your web browser, or run fewer Apps, especially the big memory hungry kind)
    Or maybe you just need more RAM if you must have all these things installed and running all the time.
    Just a thought.  But it is not kernel_task that is causing problems.  That is normal.

  • Extreme ram usage leading to slow browsing experience.

    Hello
    I have been using firefox for a long time. this problem has persisted but it was not much of a problem then as it is now. The problem is as follows:
    I have two windows open. one window has 30 tabs open and the other has 12 tabs open. The problem is that even if i do not use any of those windows, you can observe the ram usage, in task manager, it is consistently increasing. When this usage reaches 2800mbs, the browser starts to get slow and as it reaches 3200mbs, the browser is literally freezing for like 20 seconds by saying "Not responding" and then coming back to life and then after a few page change again it happens. this is really annoying.
    In order to solve this issue i have to force close the browser and reopen it and restore the previous session to get my pages back and make them work at a decent speed.
    My friends who use google chrome, they have even more tabs open and their browsing experience is quite smooth. I personally like firefox more as i am used to it and also its add ons are good, but this problem is really annoying.
    Just to let you know if you start to think that my laptop cannot handle this load
    My laptop specs are:
    Core i7 2670qm
    13gb ddr3 ram
    1tb hdd
    nvidia gtx560m 2gb
    Kindly look into this matter and let me know if there is a fix to this issue.
    Hope to hear from you soon.
    Thank You

    Did you check your extensions?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • RAM usage

    Hi everybody,
    first of all, regardless that problem isn´t solved yet, thanks very much to Todd for his very detailed problem descriptions. It´s very interesting to understand how AE is handling the memory, with this in mind, it´s way more better to search for the problem´s origin.
    After still getting this and other memory based errors, I downloaded FreeRAMBosster and checked the RAM usage during working on my project.
    After opening the project, there are 17 GB left of 24 GB. Prerendering 4 - 5 seconds causes the free RAM to go down to 8 MEGABYTE.
    The thing is, one, why is that, and two, why won´t I get more free RAM again even after purging everything possible? The system only releases RAM after I shut down AE.
    Currently I´m working on
    Mac Pro
    2 x 2,4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
    24 GB 1066 MHz DDR3
    After Effects 12.0.0.404
    AE got 21 GB RAM for use, other apps got 3 GB.
    Multiprocessing is OFF.
    Preview resolution is set down to every 16 px.
    Ok, I´ve got an Illustrator document with 40 layers in it which is the basis for the AE project. Maybe this causes the RAM to go down to the ground. But I do not understand why there is no RAM reset in any stage of currently working on a project. Because you won´t have fun during processing, and final rendering is absolutely impossible.
    Thanks for any further input on this.

    Hi Todd and everyone landed here because of the same issues,
    I just figured it out.
    Todd, I didn´t do the update because I wanted to test something first. The problem got something to do with the file link between After Effects and Illustrator. Or maybe it´s just really physically happening that the RAM was overflooded.
    My whole project was based on one single Illustrator document with mutliple layers (ca. 40). I just split it up now scene by scene (f. e. 4 scenes = 4 Illustrator documents with multiple layers within) and relinked the footage in AE to that new documents.
    That did the job!!! AE just got through it like a hot knife through butter.
    A side effect of that was that there were continiously 4 - 5 GB RAM free, so the rendering process was just flowing.
    What I´m still interested in Todd is if there is any RAM reset during working on a project at some stage. I´m finished rendering now and have 3 GB RAM left.

  • Satellite T130-12G - crazy touchpad

    Hi all,
    My brand new Satellite T130 12G is running well except the touchpad wich becomes crazy after some minutes of usage.... Does anyone has the same problem ???
    I uninstalled the synaptic driver, but still the same after 5 minutes....
    The behaviour is for example as follow : The arrow goes up and down when i go up...
    Cannot go left or right or when working, it is out of control ....
    If anyone can help
    Thanks
    Baloo

    Hi
    Its nice to hear that you could improve the touchpad functionality.
    I found also some tips and tricks which you should try out:
    First of all you should change the touchpad sensitive settings to lower level.
    Go to control panel -> mouse and set all adjustments for the touchpad to a a less sensitive level.
    You should also click right Synaptics Pointing Device (in taskbar) and look in middle of page for Double Click Speed. Move the slider to halfway on the range. This should help you too.
    Last but not leas you have to disable pinch zoom.
    Go to the Synaptics Pointing Device icon in the lower right hand corner, click on "Pointing Device Properties", click on "Device Settings" tab and then settings button.
    Under "Pinch Zoom" uncheck "Enable Pinch Zoom".
    Greetings

    Has this been something that just recently started happening, or have you had this issue for a while?  Have you installed any new programs recently?
    You may want to download Glary Utilities, which is a free software(they will ask you if you want to go Pro, just say no, the free version works very well).  There is a module for startup manager.  You can go in and disable stuff that starts with the computer.  I would advise unchecking adobe, java, quicktime, printers, etc.  Anything that doesn't REALLY need to start with the computer.  The nice thing with Glary is that you can restart the computer, and if you find that you need one of the programs to start with windows, you can go back in and enable it again.
    The Celeron 925 processor in your computer is a decent entry level processor, but if there are too many programs running in the background, it can bog down quick.  I would also recommend downloading and running Malwarebytes Anti-malware, to be sure that there is nothing malicous running in the background.

  • Scratch disks and RAM usage

    i would like to understand the relationship between scratch disks and RAM usage in Photoshop.
    While i was working on a fairly big psb file (2gb), photoshop kept prompting that I was out of memory, but in fact the utilization was only 75% (i had 16gbs total, photoshop was only using 7gb, and i allowed PS to use up to 14gb in total). when it says out of memory, it was actually my scratch disk at fault ( i only set 1 scratch disk, which was my 120gb SSD running out of space).
    any idea how I can optimize PS to use up all my RAM first before even touching my scratch disk? (short of using a RAMdisk, please).
    thanks!

    I am curious about this also. I just reinstalled W-7--have 11 G of physical memory--a ton of hard drive empty space also, and I have been wondering why PS_CC is so slow--since basically I have only put my Security and Browser in addition to Adobe back on the Dell XPS computer..... At least now it does show the downloading percentage (like .psd file) , but that must be what is happening.  I do think that some of these "frozen" screens I have been experiencing, was because the program was using scratch disk, instead of the Ram... I came up from CS-5, and can't describe it in detail, but just realize how slow PS-CC is in most everything.  Going back and see if reallocating will help...

  • Where to see CPU and RAM usage in IPAD 1

    Hi:-)
    While i have Apps running , I would like to be able to see CPU and RAM in use..and ideas how/where?

    Can anyone tell me how to get this going again please?

    Also check the BIOS, on some models there is an option to disable the Webcam in the BIOS.
    And also ensure Skype, Messenger, or other programs that use the webcam are not running, only one application can use the webcam at a time.

  • Why does closing all open windows (15) and leaving only one drop ram usage from 1.5 to 1.4Gb and not more.

    Why does closing all open windows (15) and leaving only one drop ram usage by only 100mb from 1.5 to 1.4Gb.
    What is in this 1.4 gb ?
    I don't care much about ram, It's just that cpu usage spike like crazy by the end.

    Hi musicfan,<br />Sorry you are having problems with Firefox. Maybe you should have asked earlier and we could have fixed it.
    Reading your comments I do not see that rolling back to an insecure Firefox 22 will actually help you much. You are probably best using IE, unless you have also damaged that.
    *[[Export bookmarks to Internet Explorer]]
    You should not use old versions they are insecure. Security fixes are publicised and exploitable.
    * [[Install an older version of Firefox]]
    * https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html
    Most others will not be having such problems. We are now able to say that with confidence because after developers missed a regression in Firefox 4 telemetry was introduced so that data was obtained. It may be an idea to turn on your telemetry, if you have not already done so, and decide to stick with Firefox.

    Trying safe mode takes seconds. Unfortunatly if you are not willing to do even rudimentary troubleshooting there is not anything we can do to help you.

  • Runaway RAM Usage leading to Kernel Panic using FilmConvert Plugin (updated x3)

    Hello, filed a bug report on this but cuious if anyone sees it.
    Late 2012 27 iMac, top line i7 with 680MX, 32 GB RAM.
    Promise R6 TB RAID.
    Trying to render out a 15 min edit from Premiere that has each clip with 3 filters on it - MB Looks, MB Colorista, Filmconvert.
    Since 7.01, every time I render previews or encode out, RAM use skyrockets way past the 25GB I allocated. I get up to a 50GB swap file in fact before the computer just craps out and I can't finish my render. (Nothing past 15 min anyway, I can do under that length ok.) As of this moment PPro Headless in Activity Monior has allocated 40GB and climbing....
    Any ideas?  Kind of a major issue. Does not happen on CS6 with same filters and similar project.
    PS - The same issue is happening with the same project on my Macbook Pro 15" retina with 16GB of RAM. It's creating a huge swap file. On the iMac with Fusion drive I can't complete the render at all due to the system SSD filling up on the Fusion drive. It eventually crashes and reboots. I can complete the render on the laptop, but it ends up with a 50+ GB swap file.
    UPDATE 1:
    I had my suspicions a Plugin I am using, the excellent (but now unusable for over 10 min projects) plugin "FilmConvert" was causing the issue on all my Macs.
    To prove it's the plugin, I removed duplicated my main 15 min sequence, removed the FilmConvert plugin from all clips while keeping the two Magic Bullet effects on. So, all filters (MB Looks, MB Colorista II) BUT filmConvert.
    Result?
    RAM usage stays where it should be (at the limit set in Premiere Pro CC) and there is zero swap file usage. Same project, same filters, same everything except FilmConvert was removed on this duplicate timeline.
    As it stands, the plugin is unusable for longer projects.  I'm still curious if anyone else has seen this, or if Adobe has any input.
    UPDATE 2: I developed a workaround workflow and the vendor wrote back and thinks it's a bug in PPro CC, but will try to see if they can't code around it:
    "We have had one other very recent report of this type of behaviour, but when rendering through the CC version
    of Adobe Media Encoder or Premiere (but not After Effects). I believe the issue is with Media Encoder / Premiere,
    although it's probably preventable within our plugin. The problem I believe is that Premiere and Media Encoder
    create many instances of the plugin during a  render, one instance per frame, and it seems in CC those instances
    do not get cleaned up until after the render finishes.
    As each plugin instance is expecting to be called many times, to render multiple frames, it keeps a certain amount
    of memory allocated, in order to gain a speed advantage."
    I am using the render previews workflow to deal with it for now. I set my sequence to my master codec (in this case ProRes 422 HQ, with maximum quality checked). Then I preview chunks of the timeline setting in/out, render. Then I quit the program, which frees up the RAM and the need for the swap file, which starts reducing itself. Then I run PPro again, and preview another chunk, and repeat the process until done.
    To export final piece, I just export using previews matching the sequence (which is ProRes 422 HQ) and it is a straight copy at that point and quick. This is a useful workflow if you are making tons of minor edits for a client anyway, as it vastly speeds up re-renders of the final file.  No loss in quality as the previews are the same as my final encode would be anyway.
    Still, it would be nice if Adobe/FilmConvert or both could fix this bug so I can just queue up a whole sequence and walk away without chunking it up if I need to.
    Update 3: If only Adobe could move so fast. Rubber Monkey sent me a new version to test today, and it fixed the problem. Amazing customer service!! It has not been released yet but I suspect it will be at some point. Case closed.

    Glad I'm not the only one. My temporary solution was to download the kernel and wl package from December 2012 found http://repo-ck.com/PKG_source/ and then mkpkg and install it. It'll work as an alternative for now, without messing up the primary kernel setup.
