Equium M50-244: what upgrades are possible and worth to do?

hi all, i have just got a EQUIUM M50-244, i got it yesterday from pc world, and im well please with it!
but i was wondering if there are any worth while upgrades? is it possible to clock the cpu? im looking at more memory, is there a limit to what i can fit? also is a bigger hard drive possible? any thing else thats worth doing please let me know
thanx, your friendly local snake

Hi
General its not possible to upgrade the CPU or the graphic card but you can upgrade the memory and the HDD on this notebook.
You can upgrade the memory to max 2048MB memory (2x1024MB) and you can use a HDD with the 80GB maybe also 100GB.
The supported memory modules are:
DDR2-400/533 256MB (PA3389U-1M25)
DDR2-400/533 512MB (PA3412U-1M51)
DDR2-400/533 1GB (PA3411U-1M1G)
Hope I could help.

  • Equium M50-244 has bluescreens and password was requested

    Hi all,
    I need your help here please, my wifes Equium M50-244 just froze after 15 min. I thought taking the battery out would fix the problem, only now when you turn on laptop I get blue screen and a request for password that was not supplyed with computer.
    Can anyone help before she beats the life out of me (shes big).

    Either this is an incredible coincidence or I am now trying to fix your wife's computer. Let me know if it is the former.
    Toshiba laptops have the facility to set a password to access the computer. Acording to the manual for this model, this can be done by running the Toshiba Password Utility software in Windows. The password gets stored on the CMOS chip that holds the BIOS data. The purpose of the Toshiba Password Utility is to deny a thief access to the computer but it is fraught with risk because of the difficulty in resetting the password if it is lost (or manifests spontaneously as in this case).
    In principle you can reset the CMOS and therefore remove the password but to do this you would need to disassemble the laptop to gain access to the motherboard in order to temporarily remove the small battery thereon. I have not been able to find instructions on how to disassembe this model.
    Toshiba Technical Support may be able to supply a password that will give you the chance to reset the access password. I'm not sure if you can reset it directly to null by this means but the Toshiba Password Utility will let you remove the password if you know what the password is. Catch 22 is that you have to convince Toshiba that you are the bona fide owner.
    Or you may need to return the computer to a Toshiba Service agent.
    Or on Ebay (US) you can buy a USB Password Removal Key. I think this is aimed more towards thieves than legitimate owners.

  • WEP Encryption Key not remembered when restarting the Equium M50-244

    I am running an Equium M50-244 Laptop, with a BT Home Hub 7838 wireless router. Nearly everytime I power up this notebook it has no wireless connection. I therefore have to go into Control Panel, Network Connections, and get it to find a new connection.
    Then have to type in WEP Encryption Key number twice to get a new connection.
    This is obviously a lengthy procedure so I need to get the Laptop to recognise the Encryption Key and store it for the next time I power on.
    I am running Windows XP Home with Service Pack 2, and a Norton Anti Virus and Firewall.
    Any help would be much appreciated
    Peter

    Hello
    I agree with Louis. Your WLAN cards support WPA encryption and, if possible, you should use it.
    Anyway: for WLAN configuration try to use Windows settings and defined WEP password should be remembered for your WLAN. I have configured it on many different notebooks and after choosing the listed WLAN the password was already defined and only thing that must be done is to click on button Connect.

  • BSOD on Equium M50-244 - error caused by ati2dvag.dll

    OS Windows XP SP2, display ATI Radeon xpress 200m series.
    Hi have a Equium M50-244 with a problem. Seems to work fine but suddenly goes to blue screen with message:
    A problem has been detected has been shut down to prevent damage.
    The problem seems to be caused by following file ati2dvag.dll
    If this is the first time you have seen this stop screen restart computer if this screen appears again take these steps
    The device driver got stuck in an infinite loop this usually indicates a problem with the device itself or with device driver programming the hardware incorrectly.
    Please check with your hardware device vendor for any driver updates.

    Have tried updating drivers from Toshiba, ATI and omega this has made no difference.
    Of course there could be a fault with chipset but diagnostics does not identify any problems. If I run windows in safe mode display is ok.
    Other forums seem to report similar problems with this model and ATI chipset, but no-one seems to have solution. Can anyone help?

    Hi
    Check this thread http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=16605
    By the way: the Internet is full with such discussions but the fact is that this happen on different desktops and laptops. It has nothing to do with YOUR notebook model directly.

  • Equium M50-244 - SM Bus Controller - any drivers available?

    Notebook bought with XP Home, but has been changed to run with XP Professional.
    Pulled down all the drivers I could find from the Tosh site, but in Device Manager under Other Devices is SM Bus controller marked with a ? and an exclamation mark.
    Any suggestion where I might find this driver(s).
    Is this part of the chipset? or is it some other device?

    Hi
    Equium M50-244 has a PSM59E-xxx part number.
    In this case you have to use the right driver.
    On the Toshiba page you will also find a installation instruction how to install the drivers.
    You have to follow this guideline.
    PS: Just for info XP pro uses the same drivers like XP home

  • What exactly are unscaledWidth and unscaledHeight in mobile item renderers?

    Hello,
    What exactly are unscaledWidth and unscaledHeight that get passed to the measure() method for a mobile item renderer?
    I am guessing renderers start at  "default" width and height (so unscaled) which get scaled based on DPI. Is that it?
    Thank you.

    measure() doesn't take any parameters so I assume you mean the layoutContents() and/or drawBackground() methods.
    If you look at the code in LabelItemRenderer (and MobileSkin) for updateDisplayList() you'll see that it just delegates the work to the drawBackground() and layoutContents() methods:
        override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number,
                                                      unscaledHeight:Number):void
            // clear the graphics before calling super.updateDisplayList()
            graphics.clear();
            super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
            drawBackground(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
            layoutContents(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
    This was done to make it a little bit easier for people to subclass LabelItemRenderer/IconItemRenderer by breaking the positioning logic apart from drawing the background visuals.  Check out the documentation for UIComponent.updateDisplayList and look around on Google for more information on how updateDisplayList fits into the Flex component life cycle.

  • How to know what reports are running by looking at SSReproting Services to see what reports are running and also any clue of which application is using the reporting services?

    How to know what reports are running by looking at SSReproting Services to see what reports are running and also any clue of which application is using the reporting services?

    To see what reports are running, take a look at the execution log views that are available in the database.  Which views that are available are dependent on your version of SSRS.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159110.aspx
    To see which application is using SSRS is a little more difficult.  You can turn HTTP logging on, which will give you an idea of where connections are coming from, so you can see IP addresses.  You can also look at the execution log view to see
    user accounts.  So, depending on your environment and use of service accounts, this could be easy, or difficult.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb630443.aspx
    If all else fails you can look for clues in the SSRS logs.  Good luck...

  • What effects are these and where can I find a tutorial?

    There are a few Effects in this banner that I would like to know what they are and how I can do them.
    1. The blocks that move and twitch around. That is the only way I can describe it.
    2. How the text messes up and scrambles as it comes in.
    If you could also find me a tutorial on you tube as well as the name of the effect would be much appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Hi Speedrookie,
    You can search on the terms Mylenium gave you to find tutorials via search. Here's a collection of tutorials on fractal noise: Fractal Noise in After Effects by Rich Young
    If you need more ideas, let us know.
    FYI, we do see a lot of requests for recipes for "how do I make this effect?," etc. that can be figured out with a good hunk of AE basics under your belt. This is a bit irritating to die hards here on the forum. Sorry if that was a little off-putting. Getting After Effects basics down something you might try if you have not already. It's very liberating.
    Here are some resources for you:

  • When should I purchase a MacBook Air, and what upgrades are worth it?

    My MacBook Pro (early 2011) is moving as slow as a dinosaur... we are hoping if I get a MacBook Air for school and we only use one account on the Pro (instead of leaving both logged on and switching back and forth), we can get by for a few years without the cost of a new Pro. (I am a grad student. Money problems make it almost tempting to even get a PC at this point.)
    With a minor "refresh" rumored in the upcoming days for the MacBook Air, and the 12" Retina coming a few months down the road... and with my next school term starting in May-- when should I get a MacBook Air?
    I will be getting the 11" since it is cheapest.
    Also, when considering the question of extending the lifetime of the computer (hoping in 4 years it doesn't slow to a crawl like our Pro has), what is more important-- upgraded processor, or RAM?

    While it may be that the hardware you have is responsible for the slow performance, it is also possible that third party software incompatibility is the cause.  If you run EtreCheck and post the results here, someone might be able to spot something.

  • Firefox 5.0.1 would cause my Free Download Manager to be disabled because it is not compatibl with the new version. What ones are compatible and free?

    I have received a pop-up advisory from Firefox several times, saying that my Free Download Manager is not compatible with the recommended 5.0.1 upgrade and wold have to be disabled until the compatibility problem was corrected.
    (I think that I did download it, and that was when I got the first warning. I visited my download m manager shortly afterward, and all my download history had disappeared. I think that I then reversed the upgrade.)
    Since then, my emails will load only in Basic HTML, which I have several problems with. I don't know if that is a Google or a Firefox problem.
    So, my initial problem is that I need a reliable and easy to use free downloader before I can upgrade and get my Standard HTML back.
    What free Download Managers are compatible with Firefox 5.0.1?
    While we're at it, is 5.0.1 Beta? And what is Beta?

    Solution: (Free Download Manager)
    Go here: http://codecpack.co/download/Free_Download_Manager.html and download Free Download Manager 3.8.1067 Beta 3, it works perfectly with Firefox 5.0.1
    Solution: (to Google mail aka Gmail)
    I have had this problem for a while since I did a previous Firefox update, where I had to force Gmail to load in Basic HTML else it's next to impossible to use it. The solution is this: simply update your Java, and Gmail will work without a problem using Standard HTML. To update your Java go here: http://www.java.com/en/ and select "Free Java Download".
    And beta normally, universally, means "the not quite there yet version of the version we're aiming for" NORMALLY used during production and testing of a type of software.
