Memory upgrade on Satellite 1900-303

Looking for help guys, According to the manual there should be two slots for memory modules in the memory bay but there is only one that fits. There is 256 Mb built in and I have already added 256 Mb. Where is the original 256 Mb module ? I wish to replace both with 512 Mb modules. Orcalogic only give the single part number as per the manual.
Any help would be great.

Hi there,
Unfortunately the second RAM is under the Keyboard, but I really dont know how to reach it. I think it would be necessary to disassmble the machine to get access to the second module.
Thats all what I know.
Cheers

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.

Memory upgrade on Satellite 1900-803

How do you get keyboard off this model to upgrade memory?

Hi
The memory slots you will find at the bottom of the unit!
Under the keyboard you will find a place for the WLan card!
But your question was How to remove keyboard.
Well, before placing here an description how to do it I must say that everything what you do is on you own risk!
Be careful buddy!!!
So if you wan to remove the keyboard you should
1. Depress the right-hand key on the back row of your keyboard and insert a thin tool
into the narrow hole that is revealed in the keyboard brace latch below the keyboard brace.
2. Use the tool to slide the keyboard brace latch to the right. The keyboard brace will pop up allowing you to lift it out.
3. Remove two silver screws securing the keyboard and lift the keyboard out and turn it face down on the palm rest.
Be careful not to apply pressure to the keyboard cable
4. Disconnect the keyboard cable from the system board and remove the keyboard.
Thats all.

Satellite 1900-303: Is memory slot 2 configurable?

I have a satellite 1900-303 and I ask someone to tell me please if the expansion memory slot 2 is configurable. If it is, what for? To share video memory?
I have seen on one site that is configurable, but on users manual is not mentioned that and I need to be sure before to buy another memory module.

Hi
This unit has a ATI MOBILITY RADEON with 32 MB video ram and like Barrie said its not a shared memory graphic card. In this case the memory upgrade doesnt increase this graphic video memory size. But of course the bigger memory size increases the notebook performance.

Satellite 1900-303: Can I upgrade the Hard Drive up to 120GB

I've a S1900-303 and I'm thinking of upping the Hard Drive to 120gb. What problems, if any, will I encounter and can I do it froom the Toshiba boot disk or should I just install XP from a XP disk?

Hi
As far as I can remember the Satellite 1900-303 was delivered with the 30GB HDD.
So in my opinion the 120GB HDD size is a little bit too big and I presume the notebook BIOS will not recognize this HDD!!!
I think you can use a 40GB, 60GB and maybe a 80GB HDD.
PS: you should search for the HDD with the enhanced IDE (ATA-5) interface!!!
Good luck and have a nice day

Power suddenly off on Satellite 1900-303

Satellite 1900-303 but still working for surfing, the fan never stops and makes so much noisy, not nice! Problem even worse is that the power will be suddenly off without any notice. This could be caused by the overheating power supply system and it is kind of self-protection, could anyone tell me how to fix this and if it is worth to do so?
Thanks a lot,

Hi
I agree with MrPacman.
I dont think that the notebook loses the power.
There is another reason why the notebook shuts down automatically.
The clogged cooling grilles could lead to a higher temperature inside the notebook and to an overheating issue.
This is the reason also why the cooling fans are running all the time.
What you could do is to clean the ventilators using a professional compressed air spray.
Such sprays are designed to perform such cleaning and to get rid of dust and debris from notebook inside

Problem with cd/dvd drive on my Satellite 1900-303

Hi Every body
I bought a Satellite 1900-303 in 2003. Recently, it's cd/Dvd drive stopped to work properly. whenever I put a Cd in the driver it assumes that the CD is a audio cd. if the CD is completly Audio cd or partly contained audio files it opens the cd without any problem. but if cd is data CD or software CD after trying along time my system hangs up. I change the settings of the properites of Cd drive in Autoplay section from Music file to other options such as "mixed content". but after inserting CD into the drivers it agains changes automaticaly to the "music file". I showed my notebook an expert in computer system and facility, he tried to reinstall windows XP to solve the problem but it didn't work. Since the driver was not working he used external driver to install windows XP. but the problem has not been solved.
Is there anybody who knows by accident what I should do to recover it?
Awaiting helpful advices.
Vahed

HI,
did your friend installed the XP from a MS Cd or from the Toshiba recovery CD?
At my Toshiba notebook the autoplay section is also setted to Music file and works properly!
When did this failure occured for the first time? Did you used the MS System recovery option at Start - Accessories - system prog. - System recovery
Perhaps the backsetting of your system solve the problem!
You can also check if a firmware update is available for your drive! (If it is a Toshiba drive go to http://www.toshiba-europe.com/storage/index.asp?nav=HOM&page=HOM&frame=home

Memory upgrade on Satellite Pro L40-15d

Hi
I have Satellite Pro L40-15d with 512 memory (Samsung) but I wont upgrade to 1GB. I have Kingston ktt667d2/1g I have tray to put in to both slots but nothing work I cant switch on computer.
But when I change for old one laptop is ok. What can I do? Install special program or update BIOS or maybe the memory stick is broken.
Regards

Hi
The notebook doesnt boot after the memory upgrade due to these different issues;
- memory modules are not compatible together
- memory modules are not compatible with the notebook
- memory modules are faulty
- one of memory slots is faulty
In most case the memory module replacement helps.
One hint; did you try to switch the memory modules in the slots? Sometimes this helps.
Several weeks ago I have updated my memory and the notebook didnt boot.
I thought its a memory malfunction but after module switching the notebook booted correctly.
Good luck

Memory Upgrade on Satellite Pro A10

Can anyone advise me as to the correct RAM type to upgrade my Satellite Pro A10. Its a standard 256mB at the minute and I'm thinking of slotting in an additional 512mB next to it - but am bemused by the array of memory types and nomenclatures - DDR - SODIMM etc !!!
Handy with the screw drivers but not so hot with the acronyms. Many thanks to you all out there who know the score!

Hi

Memory upgrade on Satellite A50-104

I NEED TO FIND A 512MB MEMORY UPGRADE FOR MY A50/104 ANYONE NO THE CORRECT ONE TO BUY, I WAS TOLD ON EBAY THAT 512 DDR SODIMM IS THIS RIGHT. ALSO HOW DO I CHECK ON MY LAPTOP FOR THESE DETAILS IF THERE ARE ANY AND ANY OTHER SPEC BATTERY ,HARDDRIVE ETC

Hi
You have several ways to find out what memory module is compatible and supported.
You can use a diagnostic too like Everest, you will check the user manual or the Toshiba website for details or you will contact the service in your country for supported modules.
I will try to answer the question: The Satellite A50 should support PC2700 DDR-RAM like these parts:
PC2700 256MB (PA3311U-1M25)
PC2700 512MB (PA3312U-1M51)
PC2700 1024MB (PA3313U-1M1G)
Now its your choice. You can also google for the offers
By the way: Visit the Toshiba Options & accessories site. There you will find compatible parts

Memory upgrade on Satellite Pro A40

Can anyone please advise where is the best place I can get a memory upgrade for my Satellite Pro A40 laptop.
I think my machine is a PC2700 DDR. I am looking for either 512mb or 1gb.
Thanks in advance.
Christine

Hi
On the Satellite Pro A40 you will find 2 memory slots and you can upgrade the memory to max 2GB (2x1024MB)
It should be possible to use these modules:
PC2100 512MB (PA3164U-1M51)
PC2100 1GB (PA3278U-1M1G)
And
PC2700 512MB (PA3312U-1M51)
PC2700 1024MB (PA3313U-1M1G
I purchase the compatible parts and devices always form the Toshiba service partner in my country because so I'm 100% sure that this parts are compatible.
So I would recommend you also to buy the modules form the ASP in your country.

Memory upgrade for Satellite L30-134

I have a Satellite L30-134 which appears to be running quite slowly - I think due to large amount of photos and itunes music.
I am wondering which is the easiest way to resolve - buy a memory upgrade (no idea how to change the memory though) or get an external hard drive?
And if I change the memory will I lose what is already saved on the laptop?

I agree with Ganz the bigger HDD will not improve the performance but only increase the available HDD space it would helps you to store more music and pic files on the HDD ;)
The memory upgrade would also not bring an performance boost of course the performance would be a little bit better because the most stuff would be handled directly in the memory and not temporally on the HDD but generally its not really noticeable.
Anyway if you want to upgrade the memory check this:
http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=25737&ft=m&st=3
You have to use DDR2 533MHz (PC2-4200) 200-PIN SODIMM
