Equium L40-10X: Need details about memory

I am thinking of upgrading the RAM memory on the above, but can't find the model or specification on the UK website (other members of the Equium family range are on the "Laptops" section of the webpage, but my model frustratingly is not!) -
I am particularly interested as I want to get the correct type of memory (original or generic) - can users help me on this?.
My main reason for increasing the RAM memory is that the laptop seems disappointingly slow with the standard 1GB ram which i belive is fitted as 2 x 512mb -
If any users have any other tips for speeding the laptop up, please let me know.
Incidentally, powering up takes about 50-60 seconds and shutdwon 40-50 seconds, is this normal.
The laptop is currently as per facory fit specification.

The ram required is pc2 5300 200pin sodimm.
You can purchase this from dabs.com for appx £30 for the 2gb kit ( 2 x 1gb modules) .
I also did this and it makes the equium L40 run better. This along with vista sp1 and the atheros wifi driver version 7.6.0.70 from this site made my notebook a much better pc.
You can use the crucial memory selector on the dabs site to go exactly to this ram then place your order.
Good luck.

Question about graphics cards for Equium L40 - 10X

Hi - new to this but really hacked off so hopefully someone can help me.!
I bought a Equium L40 - 10X in August and thought it was good for what I wanted, especially after seeking advice and speaking to 'an expert' at my local pcworld.
However, I think the graphics card is not good enough to support the games I have got - Medal of Honour Warchest, Hitman Triple Pack and Call of Duty 2. They all sem to recommend a nVidia graphics card as a minimum requirement. The card in the laptop is an Intel(R) 945 Express Chipset Family (I think) and the OS is Vista Home Premium.
Problems I am experiencing include loss of graphics and stuttering during play.
Can I upgrade to an nVidia graphics card or is the one I have got sufficient but I just need to change some settings?
Haven't got a clue really, so help would be much appreciated!

Either you was not clear enough or the expert from pcworld have provided the wrong information and wrong advice.
Fact is that the Intel shared GPU was not really designed to play the newest games.
The shared graphic card is simply not powerful enough to run such games smoothly!
> Can I upgrade to an nVidia graphics card or is the one I have got sufficient but I just need to change some settings?
NO, this is not possible because the notebooks graphic cards are fixed on the board and cannot be removed.

Upgrade RAM for Equium L40-10X

I want to upgrade the RAM in my Equium L40-10X from 1GB to at least 2GB - I read that's the highest it can be upgraded to??
I want to know what RAM it takes though so I know what I'm looking for to buy!!
Any help appreciated
Thanks,
Jake

I cant find that exact model, is it a UK model?
The other L40's are 2GB max.
You need to use RAM that has the same specs as the original RAM, which is DDR2 667MHz (PC5300) SODIMM
Buy quality brand-name RAM with similar CAS/RAS timings. Cheap RAM can corrupt your data and cause BSOD's or instability.
You can view the CAS/RAS memory timings in CPUID (google is your friend)

Equium L40-10X - Can't install Windows

Hi all,
First actual post but been around on and off for a while. I hope somebody here can help!
I have a Toshiba Equium L40-10x laptop with a strange problem. It came to me second user with the problem already so I don't know any history other than what I have tried. When you boot the machine it comes up with a TRAP 00000006 exception error and stops. The hard drive has been low level formatted, formatted and partitioned and has nothing on it. The memory has been replaced and confirmed working. When you try and use the recovery cd (F12 on startup) it goes to the select boot option menu, I select CD player and it makes a few noises and then the error appears. I have also tried a WIN XP and WIN Vista CD with the same effect.
Googling the problem seems to suggest NTLDR problems or memory but drive has nothing on it and memory has been tested and confirmed fine.
Other possibilities are CD drive or BIOS. Bios version is at 2.10 and I know that BIOS available is 2.30 but unable at the moment to work out a way to upgrade the bios. I do have a USB Floppy drive available.
So, thats the problem, any thoughts?
Thanks

Have you access to the HDD using floppy start disc?
Connect the HDD to other notebook, create two partitions, copy I368 folder on second partition. With floppy disc try to access this folder and start WXP installation using winnt32.exe.
Check advanced search option on this forum and you will find many threads with good description how to do this.
Play a little bit with it. ;)
Is the optical disc drive working properly?

Equium L40-10X - Wireless vanished?

I have an Equium L40-10X. It comes with wireless built in and I have been using for over a year without any problems. I has now vanished from my laptop! The wireless LED indicator won't come on and it's no longer listed in my Network Adaptors. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Also worth noting that I'm no expert so idiot proof advice would be great.

Vanished from one day to the other? Indeed, really strange.
Ok, let's see. Have you tried to install wlan drivers again?
You can find them on Toshiba download page: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com (Support & Downloads)
Just in case, check if hardware switch is turned off or if deactivated via FN+F8 key combination.

Dont have reboot disc for Equium L40-10x. Can I reboot it anyway?

At start it up it states that windows cant boot because of error it states to reboot using disc but dont have disc.
Can anyone help because Toshiba support seems to never heard of Equium L40-10x model!

Hi
I dont think that Equium L40 was equipped with an HDD recovery option
Nevertheless, you can check the link posted by Barrie
I think the notebook was not delivered with an recovery CD because there was an option which allows you to create an own recovery disk.
I think you have ignored this option and therefore you dont have the recovery disk ready for recovery process
You could use an clean Win XP or other Windows OS in order to reinstall the OS in this unit
Greats

Need details about "Lock Profiling" tab of JRockit JRA

Hi,
I'm experimenting with the JRockit JRA tool: I think this is a very useful tool ! It provides very valuable information.
About locks ("Lock Profiling" tab), since JRockit manages locks in a very sophisticated manneer, it enables to get very important information about which monitors are used by the application, helping for improving the performances.
Nevertheless, the BEA categories (thin/fat, uncontended/contended, recursive, after sleep) are not so clear. A short paper explaining what they mean would greatly help.
Fat contended monitors cost the most, but maybe 10000 thin uncontended locks cost the same as 1 fat contended lock does. We don't know.
So, there is a lack of information about the cost (absolute: in ms, or relative: 1 fat lock costs as N thin locks) of each kind of monitor. This information would dramaticaly help people searching where improvements of lock management are required in their application.
Thanks,
Tony

great explanation! Thanks

About thin, fat, recursive and contended locks in JRockit:
Let's start with the easiest part: recursive locks. A recursive lock
occurs in the following scenario:synchronized(foo) { // first time thread takes lock
synchronized(foo) { // this time, the lock is taken recursively
}The recursive lock taking may also occur in a method call several levels
down - it doesn't matter. Recursive locks are not neccessarily any sign of
bad programming, at least not if the recursive lock taking is done by a
separate method.
The good news is that recursive lock taking in JRockit is extremely fast.
In fact, the cost to take a lock recursively is almost negligable. This is
regardless if the lock was originally taken as a thin or a fat lock
(explained in detail below).
Now let's talk a bit about contention. Contention occurs whenever a thread
tries to take a lock, and that lock is not available (that is, it is held
by another thread). Let me be clear: contention ALWAYS costs in terms of
performance. The exact cost depends on many factors. I'll get to some more
details on the costs later on.
So if performance is an issue, you should strive to avoid contention.
Unfortunately, in many cases it is not possible to avoid contention -- if
you're application requires several threads to access a single, shared
resource at the same time, contention is unavoidable. Some designs are
better than others, though. Be careful that you don't overuse
synchronized-blocks. Minimize the code that has to be run while holding a
highly-contended lock. Don't use a single lock to protect unrelated
resources, if that lock proves to be easily contended.
In principle, that is all you can do as an application developer: design
your program to avoid contention, if possible. There are some experimental
flags to change some of the JRockit locking behaviour, but I strongly
discourage anyone from using these. The default values is carefully
trimmed, and changing this is likely to result in worse, rather than
better, performance.
Still, I understand if you're curious to what JRockit is doing with your
application. I'll give some more details about the locking strategies in
JRockit.
All objects in Java are potential locks (monitors). This potential is
realized as an actual lock as soon as any thread enters a synchronized
block on that object. When a lock is "born" in this way, it is a kind of
lock that is known as a "thin lock". A thin lock has the following
characteristics:
* It requires no extra memory -- all information about the lock is stored
in the object itself.
* It is fast to take.
* Other threads that try to take the lock cannot register themselves as
contending.
The most costly part of taking a thin lock is a CAS (compare-and-swap)
operation. It's an atomic instruction, which means as far as CPU
instructions goes, it is dead slow. Compared to other parts of locking
(contention in general, and taking fat locks in specific), it is still
very fast.
For locks that are mostly uncontended, thin locks are great. There is
little overhead compared to no locking, which is good since a lot of Java
code (especially in the class library) use lot of synchronization.
However, as soon as a lock becomes contended, the situation is not longer
as obvious as to what is most efficient. If a lock is held for just a very
short moment of time, and JRockit is running on a multi-CPU (SMP) machine,
the best strategy is to "spin-lock". This means, that the thread that
wants the lock continuously checks if the lock is still taken, "spinning"
in a tight loop. This of course means some performance loss: no actual
user code is running, and the CPU is "wasting" time that could have been
spent on other threads. Still, if the lock is released by the other
threads after just a few cycles in the spin loop, this method is
preferable. This is what's meant by a "contended thin lock".
If the lock is not going to be released very fast, using this method on
contention would lead to bad performance. In that case, the lock is
"inflated" to a "fat lock". A fat lock has the following characteristics:
* It requeries a little extra memory, in terms of a separate list of
threads wanting to acquire the lock.
* It is relatively slow to take.
* One (or more) threads can register as queueing for (blocking on) that
lock.
A thread that encounters contention on a fat lock register itself as
blocking on that lock, and goes to sleep. This means giving up the rest of
its time quantum given to it by the OS. While this means that the CPU will
be used for running real user code on another thread, the extra context
switch is still expensive, compared to spin locking. When a thread does
this, we have a "contended fat lock".
When the last contending thread releases a fat lock, the lock normally
remains fat. Taking a fat lock, even without contention, is more expensive
than taking a fat lock (but less expensive than converting a thin lock to
a fat lock). If JRockit believes that the lock would benefit from being
thin (basically, if the contention was pure "bad luck" and the lock
normally is uncontended), it might "deflate" it to a thin lock again.
A special note regarding locks: if wait/notify/notifyAll is called on a
lock, it will automatically inflate to a fat lock. A good advice (not only
for this reason) is therefore not to mix "actual" locking with this kind
of notification on a single object.
JRockit uses a complex set of heuristics to determine amongst other
things:
* When to spin-lock on a thin lock (and how long), and when to inflate it
to a fat lock on contention.
* If and when to deflate a fat lock back to a thin lock.
* If and when to skip on the fairness on a contended fat lock to improve
performance.
These heuristics are dynamically adaptive, which means that they will
automatically change to what's best suited for the actual application that
is being run.
Since the switch beteen thin and fat locks are done automatically by
JRockit to the kind of lock that maximizes performance of the application,
the relative difference in performance between thin and fat locks
shouldn't really be of any concern to the user. It is impossible to give a
general answer to this question anyhow, since it differs from system to
system, depending on how many CPU:s you have, what kind of CPU:s, the
performance on other parts of the system (memory, cache, etc) and similar
factors. In addition to this, it is also very hard to give a good answer
to the question even for a specific system. Especially tricky is it to
determine with any accuracy the time spent spinning on contended thin
locks, since JRockit loops just a few machine instuctions a few times
before giving up, and profiling of this is likely to heavily influence the
time, giving a skewed image of the performance.
To summarize:
If you're concerned about performance, and can change your program to
avoid contention on a lock - then do so. If you can't avoid contention,
try to keep the code needed to run contended to a minimum. JRockit will
then do whatever is in its power to run your progam as fast as possible.
Use the lock information provided by JRA as a hint: fat locks are likely
to have been contended much or for a long time. Put your effort on
minimizing contention on them.

Need details about Toshiba 15.4" Intel Duo Core 2 T5800

Can anyone give me any information/review on this computer. I found it in a FuturShop store for 999.99$.
However I can't seem to find any information about it online anywhere.
I was told by a friend that it's a new special edition laptop or something. I need a tough computer as I do a lot of traveling and I will be using it for photos, music, videos, home financing, internet, excel, word, etc. Some games but not a main concern.
Any info on the webcam, DVD burning capabilities, and expandibility would be appreciated.
Below are some of the specs. I'm not too knowledgeable on computers so I hope I've given enough relevant info. Thanks in advance.

Need details about messageName

I am using the following code to display a confirm message, once a new record inserted. This a program from the Tool Box tutorial.
MessageToken[] tokens = { new MessageToken("EMP_NAME", employeeName),
new MessageToken("EMP_NUMBER", employeeNum) };
OAException confirmMessage = new OAException("AK", "FWK_TBX_T_EMP_CREATE_CONFIRM", tokens,
OAException.CONFIRMATION, null);
pageContext.putDialogMessage(confirmMessage);
This is working fine. But I could not understand what are these values "AK" and "FWK_TBX_T_EMP_CREATE_CONFIRM". Do we need to configure these any where in the code?
Please give me the details about this?

Please see

Student need details about Business One prices.

Hi
I'm a german student and i have to do a project about SAP Business One. It's necessary for me to get more informations about the prices for this ERP software. I've searched the I-net for many days but couldn't find any helpfull informations.
I need detail informations about asset costs, follow-up costs, license fees, costs for training the employers to handle the software and maintenance costs. If anybody can help me about that i will be very glad.
greetings, daniel

Well, first thing is the pricing is dependant on the country or at least the region you are buying B1 from. For example in Europe you could buy a SAP B1 license for 2500 euros when in Australia you can buy it for AUD2500 (FX rate 0.62).
The price is based on the market, the performance, the index of investment etc.
You also have to differenciate in your analysis the cost of licenses and the cost of implementing. Some partners are using a rule of thumb saying that the cost of implementation is roughly the cost of one license. I tend not to agree with it but that's a base I guess.
Regards,

Equium L40-10x PSL41E: No media card slot

Hi
this maybe a daft question but then again; I'm a daft lad do all Equium have media card slots as our looking at the manual doesn't have one where it should be ours is L40-10x model psl41e.
thanks

You are right. Not all L40 notebooks are equipped with the media card slot due to different motherboard layouts!

Equium L40-10Z - Need WXP driver for sound an SM bus controller

Was vista, lost system, reformatted and installed XP as no recovery discs for Vista. Now no sound and says SM bus controller unplugged.
Any help please or where can get proper recovery discs (UK). Thank you

Hey,
I think sound doesnt work because you have no drivers installed therefore and also for SM bus controller you have to download the driver on Toshiba page.
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
*Archive* > Equium (Notebooks) > Equium L Series > Equium L40 > PSL41E
But you will see that there are no XP drivers available but what you can do is using the PSL49E model number that supports Windows XP. Usually there is no big difference between these models and the drivers should work on your system too.
For SM bus controller you have to install the chipset driver and for sound card the sound driver but latter requires Service Pack 3.
