QOSMIO F10: works slow -- RAM upgrade?

Hi
I have qosmio f10
My notebook generally works slow.What do you think about?I think that upgrage the ram from 512 to 1gb or 2gb.Do you know that what is the price of extra rams?
thans all

Hi
Well, its not easy to say why it works slowly.
Sometimes many processes which are running in the background of the OS can make the unit slowly or a big HDD with many files which is not defragmented.
But of course a low memory size could be also a problem.
As far as I know this unit support max 2 GB memory and you can upgrade this unit with follow modules:
PC2700 256MB (PA3311U-1M25)
PC2700 512MB (PA3312U-1M51)
PC2700 1024MB (PA3313U-1M1G)
Bye

  • Intel Rapid Start stops working when RAM upgraded

    I have a brand new ENVY dv7-7212nr notebook running Windows 8 64-bit.
    This machine has Intel Rapid Storage Technology which caches hard disk data (I think on the 32GB SSD) and Intel Rapid Start Technology which stores active memory in the SSD cache (I think) when the computer enters a hibernation state.
    The first thing I did was upgrade the RAM from 8GB to 16GB.  It works fine, but then I get an error message "your system does not appear to have intel rapid start technology enabled."
    HP provides very little information on this, basically none.  I assume the memory is being cached on the SSD, but I don't know how to verify this.  Also I notice that acceleration is not enabled under the Rapid Storage Tecnology applet for either drive.
    I called tech support twice but the techs knew nothing about upgrading RAM beyond the usual and couldn't get it to work either.
    Does anybody even know exactly how the SSD is being used in my system?  That would be valuable information to me.
    Thanks in advance!
    This question was solved.

    Thanks for reading my reply.
    The "little SSD" is still a drive and not a chip, although you are right that it is little and it is attached to the motherboard. It is little because its form factor is not the typical 2.5 inch size but what's call "mSATA". In fact, the service manual for this dv7-7212nr laptop shows you how you can remove and replace or upgrade this mSATA SSD:
    Below is a comparison of how small the mSATA form factor is to other drive sizes (from Left to Right: mSATA, 1.8", 2.5", 3.5"):
    So if I want to replace the mSATA 32 GB SSD with a 64 GB SSD, I would have to get a mSATA SSD, not the typical 2.5" ones. So for this dv7-7212nr laptop, there can be 3 total drives installed: one in the mSATA slot and two in the 2.5'' drive bays. However, the default configuration as sold by HP only has one mSATA 32 GB SSD and one 750 GB SATA hard drive, with the remaining drive bay empty.
    This dv7-7212nr laptop does contain all the latest (and perhaps more complex) technologies and HP probably does not expect the typical user/consumer to go and muck around all the default settings. However, if one is curious and willing to make the effort to learn, the material is just a google search away.
    Here are the instructions for setting up Intel Rapid STORAGE Technology (aka Intel Smart Response Technology): http://download.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/intel_smart_response_technology_user_guide.pdf
    For this dv7-7212nr laptop, you can ignore steps 1-4 because the BIOS is already configured properly from the factory (unless some changes were made by the end user).
    Here are the instructions for setting up Intel Rapid Start Technology:
    http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/rapid_start_technology_user_guide_v11.pdf
    For this particular laptop, ignore steps 1-7 but it is important to do this first: set up Intel Smart Response Technology as above, making sure to allow enough space on the SSD for a hibernation partition that is equal to or greater than the total size of RAM installed. Then follow steps 8 to the end of the guide.  It is important to set up Intel Smart Response before Intel Rapid Start because Intel Smart Response will destroy all partitions and data on the disk (if you set up a hibernation partition for Intel Rapid Start first, it will be removed when you set up Intel Smart Response).
    I have successfully ENable and DISable these technologies on my laptop using the above guides (with my modifications). WARNING: back up all data before trying any of this.
    In your case, I agree that you can also disable Rapid START and just use the whole SSD for acceleration along with the 16 GB RAM upgrade.

  • Recording doesn't work since RAM Upgrade on WinXP x64 with Audi

    Hello there,
    I've been using my SB Audigy 4 (the usual version, not the pro version) for months in conjunction with WindowsXP Professional x64 SP2 by just using the drivers that can be downloaded from the web, "SBAX_WBUP2_LB_2_09_006.exe". Back then I didn't use the original CD because I thought it wouldn't support x64, which actually is incorrect . Everything worked fine. I then upgraded my memory from 4 GB to 8 GB. I am not sure whether the RAM update caused it or whether I did any other minor thing (this could involve BIOS updates or other software issues), but now I have the following issues:
    ) Recording doesn't work anymore at all: Things like VoiP (Skype, etc) or other recording doesn't work anymore, the indicator stays at 0 all the time. No matter whether the input source is the (WORKING) microphone, or the "what you hear" while playing music at maximum level. It simply refuses to record. Btw, I do have another partition that has Windows XP Pro 32bit installed, I can record with that one without problems. Using the same drivers that I mentioned above.
    2) Rear speakers aren't working. What should come out of the rear speakers comes out of the front speakers instead.
    I tried the following things to solve the problem, without success:
    ) Usual re-installation of the drivers
    2) Following the guide "Uninstalling Sound Blaster Drivers and Applications" that involves the "Clean start" of Windows and removing WDM drivers using the Creative-Utility. I did install the original CD drivers afterwards instead of using the newer drivers from the web.
    About recording there's another thing I can say: when I set the input source to the microphone and the I disable that the microphone output is muted, I can hear myself speaking.
    Any ideas what I could do?Message Edited by NameZero92 on 2-30-200706:8 PM

    wow, Thank you.
    I could indeed get the sound working when burning the 4 GB of RAM that I had additionally installed, which is hilarious, of course. :-)
    Does the driver-dev team look into this forum from time to time ? I would like to contact the support, but I purchased the audigy longer than a year ago. And actually I am not the who one who doesn't know what to do, but I just found a bug in the drivers (well, the guys in the other thread did, but what it comes down to is that with capacities of > 4GB deactivate the possiblity to record anything at all).Message Edited by NameZero92 on 0-03-200804:20 PM

  • Distorted video-out signal on Qosmio F10

    Hi,
    Up until recently my video-out function on my Qosmio F10 worked just fine. When I connected my laptop to the TV the other day, using a s-video cable, the picture had turned quite distorted. The picture on the TV flickers and sometimes disappears totally.
    My laptop has the Nvidia GeForce FX Go5700 graphics card and I have changed no settings what so ever from the point in time when the video-out was working properly.
    To debug I've bought a new s-video cable and also a scart-adapter. Using these I've eliminated that the TV's s-video in port is the problem. It seems to me as if something is wrong with the signal from the graphics card.
    I'd be very grateful for a diagnose on this issue.
    Thanks and regards,
    Johan

    Hi,
    I've made sure that I use the latest drivers (although the ones that Toshiba provides are not exactly brand new!). I've also made sure that I use the correct TV-format (PAL-B in my case). Furthermore, I've tried both using the s-video port on the TV directly and also using a scart adapter... The result is still the same...
    I'm inclined to believe that there is something wrong with the hardware (e.g. a loose contact in the s-video out port). In that case i guess this might be a warranty issue...
    Rgds,

    First go to the RIM web site and look to see if they have an uninstaller for the device you had.  Some times a reinstall of the application and then running the uninstaller is required for complete removal.
    If no uninstaller is available, then you will have to use Spotlight to find all items with 'Blackberry' and 'Rim' in the titles.  I would also download EasyFind and use that to locate such files.  Often it will locate items that Spotlight misses.
    Ciao.

  • Qosmio F10: TV function doesn't work properly in the MCE

    I have a Qosmio F10, the TV Function has never worked properly when trying to watch TV in the Media centre Mode, only when switched on without goint through windows.
    I have connected the aerial to a loft aerial which provides a perfect signal for other Televisions.
    When I go to settings it always comes up no signal found any ideas?

    Hi
    I presume that your unit is preinstalled with recovery media and if yes, in this case you dont need any driver. The hardware is configured properly and it must work well if the antenna is connected properly. In my opinion you should learn more about Media Center Edition and how it works. Make a try with VHS recorder. Connect it to the notebook and scan the channels. The MCE will find just one channel (in my case number 30) and you can watch VHS cassettes on your notebook.
    Please check this page http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/mediacenter/default.mspx
    And there you will find explanation how it works.
    Good luck!

  • Way the Maverick upgrade works slow in my mac book pro 2011?

    I just install e new OSX, and my macbook pro work slow. And doesn't the same with mountai lion.

    Hi,
    What are your Mac's specs, ie RAM, hard drive size, video memory, etc...? If you MacBook Pro is brand-new, frankly, don't bother installing Windows on a separate partition: install VirtualBox, create a sizeable (as in, 20 to 30Gb) virtual hard drive, then install Windows on it.
    The pros? You can use your copy of Windows as if it were installed on a separate partition, without the hassle of partitioning. You can even switch from OS X to Windows without having to reboot.
    The cons?  Windows won't feel as responsive as it would on its own partition (though from what I hear about Boot Camp, even that is debatable...), and you'd rather have a solid amount of RAM, empty disk space (for swapping) and video memory if you want to enjoy the experience.
    Up to you, but worth a try...

  • Qosmio F10: Recovery DVD doesn't work?

    Hi. I have a F10 series qosmio series lappy and well and well i keep getting random shutdowns, freezes, and a logon error every time i start up.
    This has got very disturbing for me. I tried to use the system recovery cd i got with my laptop and when i follow the procedure stated in the user manual it starts the recovery then flashes that my system does not support the recovery.
    Is this normal especially when i got my recovery disc with my laptop. I wish to reformat my hard drive back to factory settings and have it completely wiped with out having to buy a totally new hard-drive and windows xp.
    What do i do and how can you assist me in this? I'm at the end of my teather as one of my jobs is an internet dj and I cannot keep crashing in the middle of my streaming. I do not wish to loose my job!!
    please help!

    Hi
    Very strange! The fact is that you cannot use different recovery CD because every Recovery CD was designed for one Toshiba notebook model. For example you cannot use a Qosmio F10 recovery CD on a Qosmio G20.
    However, I assume you use the delivered recovery CD (as you said) and usually the recovery procedure should works without any warnings or error messages.
    In my opinion there is something wrong with the CD. Maybe the wrong CD was shipped with this notebook?
    I recommend asking the Toshiba ASP in your country. There you can also order the new CD.
    bye

  • The upgrade are a hoax and phone work slower.

    After the last upgrade, kit kat, my Samsung Galaxy S III is not working properly. Whenever Verizon offers an upgrade, the phone work slower. Call customer service and the solution they offer is BUY A NEW PHONE. I had said it once and I did not believe but I am starting to believe it's true. The upgrade slower operated the aircraft for customers to buy new phones. I'm driving the possibility of imposing a class action may not be possible because they force us to buy new phones when you buy this one years ago. Unfortunate, but so customers leave.

    There are no class actions allowed per US Supreme Court decision.
    However class actions against the phone makers are possible.
    That is paranoid thinking in regards to updates not coded by Verizon are done to make your device unusable.
    Good Luck

  • Vista Ultimate but Aero does not work on Qosmio F10 GeForce FX Go5700

    Hi
    I installed Windows Vista Ultimate on my "Qosmio F10" but dosen't work vista aero on it.
    My graphic card is "NVIDIA GeForce Go5700". Do you know when nVidia release WDDM driver for my VGA card?

    Hi
    The NVIDIA Vista graphic card driver for GeForce Go5700 is not known to me but Im 100% sure that Toshiba will not publish any Vista drivers for this notebook.
    I found an official Toshiba document about Vista supported Toshiba notebook models and the F10 is not listed there.
    So you will have to search on 3rd party websites for the compatible graphic driver.
    Did you search for similar themes here in the forum??? It seems you didnt.

  • Anyones Ram Upgrade Working??

    I was just curious after reading several posts about how everyone is having issues after replacing their ram up to the 4GB, if anyones ram upgrade has actually worked, and not resulted in constant freezing, or any freezing/locking up for that matter.
    Thanks!

    I installed a 4GB kit from http://www.datamemorysystems.com/ and my 2.4 GHz MacBook started crashing during sleep and random usage. I emailed DMS and they're sending me a replacement. I'll let this thread know how that goes.
    The 2GB that came with the MacBook are Samsung branded.
    The 4GB I ordered from DMS are AVANT (assembled in the USA) chips and stickered "DMS Certified." DMS has been really nice over email and told me they haven't had any customer complaints (besides mine) as of yet.

  • Display problem after RAM Upgrade to MS6712

    Hi there,
    after a RAM upgrade (512mb to 3GB) my PC has developed a display problem. The graphics are slow / rippled and video playback is very poor. In device manager no "display adapters" are present and there is also an error mesage referring to the VIA CPU to AGP2/AGP3.0 controller not having enough free resources to run due to a conflisct with VGAsave? I've downloaded the latest VIA chipset drivers to no effect?
    System info: MS6712 MB, AMD Athlon 1.25GHZ, XP SP3.0

    OK, here's the info on my PSU;
    It's a Powerman FSP250-60GTU(PF). Input: 230V - 5A, 50Hz. Max Output: 250W
    While I had the case open I took out 2 of the RAM modules and without making any other changes everything appeared to work fine with just the 1GB, so I tried putting 1 more back in to take it to 2GB and again all seems fine? Does this indeed point to my PSU then? If so and it works fine with 2GB should I be thankfull for a 512mb to 2GB upgrade and send the 3rd module back to Crucial??
    Before I posted this thread I did run a memtest from Memtest86+ with all three modules installed and it came up with NO problems?
    Re Henry's post, I searched using the format of the part no on the RAM modules themselves i.e. M368L2923FLN-CB3 and it took me here:
    http://www.samsung.com/global/business/semiconductor/productListNonflexTable.do?fmly_id=118&sht_id=1
    Other info on printed the modules themselves: 1GB DDR PC2700 CL2.5
    According to Everest my CPU temp (with 2GB installed) is: 43 degrees (MOBO 30 degrees and HD 42 degrees) - do these seem normal?
