Processor upgrade on Satellite L300-1BV

I've already upgraded the laptop from a T1600 (Celeron), to a T3200 (Pentium Dual Core). But does anyone know how far I can upgrade in the 478 P range of processors?
If so, could you supply the processor numbers?
+Message was edited: Model number changed in subject+

Its a Satellite L300-1BV and NOT Satellite L300D-1BV
This is big difference!
However, the Intel GL40 Express chipset supports these CPUs:
Intel Celeron Processor 575 (1M Cache, 2.00 GHz, 667 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor 585 (1M Cache, 2.16 GHz, 667 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor T1700 (1M Cache, 1.83 GHz, 667 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor T3100 (1M Cache, 1.90 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor T1600 (1M Cache, 1.66 GHz, 667 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor T3000 (1M Cache, 1.80 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor 900 (1M Cache, 2.20 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor T3500 (1M Cache, 2.10 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor T3300 (1M Cache, 2.00 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
Intel Celeron Processor 925 (1M Cache, 2.30 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)

Is graphic card upgrade on Satellite L300-21W possible?

Hi!
I`m thinking to buy Toshiba Satellite L300-21W but i wat to play some games on it like Cod2 but I think that her serial graphic card is weak so my question is:
" CAN I REPLACE GRAPHIC CARD WITH BETTER ONE OR NOT( and with which one if you know)!?!?!??!"
Thank you!

As far as I know graphic card on mobile computers cannot be upgraded. This is also described in follow document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm
So if you want to play different games with your notebook pick up info about models with better graphic cards.
I can recommend you to check Satellite A300/A350 notebook models.
Talk with your local dealer.

Memory upgrade on Satellite L300

I purchased a satellite L300 in august 08 in Australia. It came with a single 1Gb memory module which is now inadequate.
I obtained 2 x 2Gb modules but cannot get it to work with both fitted. Bios reports 4Gb fitted but Vista reboots the first time then blue screens. Ubuntu Linux hangs after loading HAL.
If only one module fitted it works OK and it does not matter which module is used.
Any info on this would be most appreciated.

Hi
Either the chipset is not able to handle 4GB RAM or there is a compatibility issues between both modules.
This is nothing unusual and happens very often that both modules cannot work together.
In your case I recommend testing other modules.
PS: Be sure that BIOS is up to date... if it's not up to date, then update it and then test both modules again...

Processor Upgrade Toshiba Satellite p755-5270

Hi all! As per the title, I would like to upgrade my CPU to a newer version. I have had an i7 processer in mind, but am generally unsure of whether it can be replaced and what processor i can run without any issues with my laptop. In general, i will not be installing but will have a shop do it.
With this in mind, i am assuming though, that the list from this site;
http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/mb-Intel_%28chipsets%29/HM65_Express.html
Contains processors that i can use, even though its a list saved for the 5272 version. Any help in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!

Anyone?

Processor upgrade on Satellite L30

Can I replace my Intel celeron with a full Intel pentium for my laptop Satellite L30-105? As it's so slow I've only had it since Feb 2007, plus half my hard disk has vanished also?

You can use Pentium M CPU, because the difference between Celeron M and Pentium M is the cache size, and Celeron M doesn't uses SpeedStep technology, but the FSB and the Socket are the same.

Processor upgrade on Satellite L30 (PSL33E)

Hi,
Does anyone know whether the L30 (PSL33E) supports core 2 duo?
And if so, has anyone tried it?
(also, have noticed that newest bios for these online is v2.60 and mine is v2.80 from new)

Hi,
No I dont think it is possible because of the chipset. The chipset could not handle the new cpu. The other thing is:
How do you want to install it? Do you know the instructions how to exchange the cpu in a mobile system? Its not the same procedure like in a desktop.
I did once and I had many problems, especially with that "microcode" thing, because you will need a special DOS-based program which writes the microcode of the cpu into the bios due to the features of the cpu.
This program is only available to toshiba technicians and I didnt get managed to get a copy of that program.
So just forget your idea and benefit from my experience (and dont waste money and time :) )

Satellite L300 - Can't upgrade to Windows 7

Attempted to upgrade my Satellite L300 laptop (running Office Home and Student 2007) and got as far as the final Driver installation "Realtek High definition Audio Driver 6.0.1.5904" at which point the upgrade froze, so I could not progress to inserting the Windows 7 Home Premium DVD. I managed to reboot after some difficulty and then Restored my system to the pre-upgrade point.
When I now insert the Toshiba Upgrade DVD, I am confronted with the screen relating only to the Realtek driver upgrade.
Any suggestions how to get passed this hurdle. My computer is still functioning on Vista

Hi
Have you already tried to update the sound driver yourself? Please try to download and install the latest Realtek driver from the Realtek Homepage. Install the new driver and reboot the notebook. Now you can try to upgrade again.
Otherwise follow the instructions posted by Akuma.
But I must say sometimes the drivers must be update before you can upgrade to Windows 7 and by the way, maybe this is useful for you:

Re: Satellite L300 - camera is not working after upgrading to Win7

There is no exclamation mark in system.

Hi
What happen when you start the webcam application?
All Programs -> Toshiba -> webcam
Did you install some other 3rd party software like for example Skype which would access the webcam?
Additional tip: go to BIOS and set it to default, save the changes and then reboot the notebook.
Start for example Skype, check the Skype settings if webcam has been chosen properly.
Would be really interesting to know if other software would be able to use the webcam.
By the way: did you install the Toshiba Face Recognition? This software use and access the webcam as well
So sometimes it could be possible that this software would block the webcam and the webcam tool could not work

Satellite L300-11M and Hardware Upgrade

Hi to all.
I have Toshiba Satellite L300-11M, but my video card is very slow and i can't play games good. So I wanna upgrade it trought buy new video card. But i don't know is my laptopl support AGP slot or only PCI? So what;s best video card from N-VIDIA who support?
Please help me. Thank you.

To be honest I doubt such external graphic card would be really helpful.
According to this article you can connect it to a USB port and in my opinion the USB 2.0 speed is not good enough to transmit a huge amount of data which accrues while playing a game
However, I never tested it so I cannot provide any details.

I need to identify my Satellite L300-10Q in order to upgrade it

Hello,
I have an aging Satellite laptop I was considering to upgrade. Unfortunately I can't find reliable information about it. I tried to find the model in different Toshiba european websites using the automatic search, the serial number and the manual searching to no avail.
My model doesn't appear in the support sections nor the discontinued products sections, although I cand find pretty older models in the latter.
These are the model, part number and serial numbers I have:
Model: Satellite L300-10Q
Part Number: PSLB0E-00901VCE
Serial Number: 38212076Q
The "closest" model I've found is the "Satellite Pro L300-10P" in the Spanish website
http://www.toshiba.es/discontinued-products/satellite-pro-l300-10p/
It has the same hardware specifications than my laptop, the only difference I found in the description is the OS version. It seems that this model is limited to 2Gb of RAM at max (already preinstalled).
Do you think that my device could have that same limitation? Is there any other site to look for my laptop specifications?
I mean, a reliable one (I can find my model using Google, but the results are all prehistoric advertisements of vendors that copypasted the (who knows its origin) same information.
Also, is it possible to replace the original HDD with a SSD? I think the interface is SATA (150 MB/s), maybe it's not worth it.
Thank you in advance... and excuse my poor writing skills in english.
Regards

> Do you think that my device could have that same limitation? Is there any other site to look for my laptop specifications?
Why you dont install some hardware diagnostic tools like Everest Home Edit or the Sandra Sisoft to get all the details about your hardware parts?
Both tools are freeware and can be downloaded from different pages.
Such tools help you to identify the built in parts and you could also get information about the hardware properties: i.e chipset, CPU, HDD controller (SATA), etc
By the way; the chipset seems to be the Mobile Intel GL960 Express Chipset and such chipset supports max 2GB RAM

Satellite L300-22L - Which RAM for upgrade?

Hello.
I have Satellite L300-22L notebook. Can you tell me which is the best RAM for my system in speed and capacity?

Hi!
The Satellite L300-22L belongs to the PSLB8E series and is equipped with Intel GL40 chipset.
That means for upgrading the RAM you need modules with the specification DDR2 667MHz to a maximum of 4GB.
Theoretically you can buy modules with these specifications from every manufacture but I have good experience with Kingston modules. I use them always for upgrading my notebooks and never had problems.

Satellite L300 - Upgrade from Vista Home Basic to Home Premium issues

Hi all,
I just recently got a Satellite L300 with an OEM version of Vista Home Basic.
I have a copy of Windows Vista: Home Premium (upgrade) disc and decided to use it on the laptop.
I put the disc in, and followed the steps however the upgrade option is blanked out... This is if I use the product key provided with the disc or not.
The laptop came with Service Pack 1 already installed and the disc I own was released into the shops before Service Pack 1.
My main question really is how can I get my disc to upgrade my version of Vista. I have tried searching Google, this website, Microsoft's website and I keep getting the same answer.
Basically go through options and do anytime upgrade. All of these are for me to buy from Microsoft which would be kind of pointless as I already have a copy.
I did read something at on a site that stated my disc would have to have the service pack on the disk and I seen a website with some kind of disc editing program for Vista but im not too keen on using it and the 'how to' wasn't very easy to understand.
Also, im not too keen on calling either Toshiba or Microsoft on premium rate numbers for help with something I have already bought and paid for and should be as simple as a few steps.
Anyway hope someone can help because I would really like to upgrade.

Hello
I understand you and it is really annoying but what to do now? the fact is that Toshiba has offered this notebook with certain Vista version. This version must be offered with best and latest available Microsoft security updates. Due to this Toshiba offers it with latest SP1 option.
So now you try to install update offered long time ago and probably offered before SP1 was on the market. I understand your point of view but, in my opinion, it has nothing to do with Toshiba now, and you should try to find solution with Microsoft. For example you can also pick up info from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930733
Clean Vista Home Premium can be installed without any problems. All drivers, tools and utilities can be downloaded from Toshiba support & download page.

Hi
Here once again the link posted by Paolo:
+*Windows 7 upgrade: Step-by-step Upgrade Guide*+
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9902P60000R01.htm
You need two disks:
- Toshiba Windows 7 Driver and Software Upgrade disc
- Microsoft Windows 7 Upgrade CD
Here the whole procedure:
+Upgrade Guide with Toshiba Win7 Driver Upgrade DVD and Microsoft Windows 7 Upgrade+
1. Toshiba recommends a clean installation of Microsoft Windows Vista.
Please store all your Data to an external HDD or other storage Media and recover your notebook.
2. After this, the drivers for the upgrade can be installed. Please insert the Toshiba Windows 7 Driver and Software Upgrade disc.
This disc contains a tool which automatically uninstalls all spuriously moduls and afterwards it installs all necessary drivers for Windows 7.
While this process is running, the computer may reboot sometimes.
If any messages appear on the screen, please follow them and take actions if needed.
3. If the driver installation is completed, please insert the Microsoft Windows 7 Upgrade CD and start the Upgrade.

Memory upgrade problem on Satellite L300

My laptop is a Satellite L300 PSLB8A-047004. I purchased a kit of 2 x 2GB modules and inserted carefully following the instructions (they clicked into place). On restart the Power light was lit, the fan was on but no further activity, and the display remained black, no disk activity. Originally there was 1-off 1GB PC2-6400S module installed and Ive checked that the new ones are PC2-6400S. I took them out and put them back in but same result. When I put the original module back in it worked fine.
I then tried just one of the new modules in place of the original one but no luck so the original module is now back in and all seems OK.
Any suggestions please? If there was module damage from being handled then the original 1GB module should also be damaged as its the one thats been handled the most.
Kev.

This is typical behaviour by compatibility problems. Which modules you have, I mean who is manufacturer?
I recommend you to use high quality products from Kingston or Toshiba. For more info about compatible modules for your notebook visit http://www.kingston.com/worldwide/default.asp
