RAM expansion on Satellite L50-B-18E

Hi, I need to expand the RAM memory on my laptop, it is a Toshiba Satellite L50-B-18E i5.
How can I do that? Do I send my laptop to some technical support office or can I do it myself?
Thank you in advance.

Hi
According notebook specification your notebook was offered with 4GB of RAM but it can be upgraded up to 16GB.
Compatible RAM modules for your machine are:
2GB DDR3L-1600 - PA5104U-1M2G
4GB DDR3L-1600 - PA5104U-1M4G
8GB DDR3L-1600 - PA5104U-1M8G
Unfortunately this notebook model doesn't have memory cover placed at the bottom side so I think memory upgrade by notebook owner is not supported. Theoretically you can do this alone but if you remove some hardware components this will cancel the warranty so I think you should contact nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.
Memory modules you can obtain on your own and just ask service to put it in the place. I cannot imagine it will be expensive.

    *RAM extention*:
    What kind of memory should I buy if I want to extend it from 512MB to *2GB* or more for
    *Satellite M60*-182 under Windows XP Home Editon with Service Pack 2
    I mean: frequency, symbol, producer etc. to work properly?

    Hi,
    your machine can be upgraded to a maximum main memory capacity of 2GB, which means:
    to expand the memory to the maximum limit what the machine is able to, you must put 2x 1GB DDR2 S0DIMM modules with a frequency of 533Mhz in both slots of your machine.
    I would suggest you the following brands: Toshiba, Kingston, OCZ

  • Memory upgrade on Toshiba Satellite L50-B-1NL

    I bought the Toshiba Satellite L50-B-1NL from argos yesterday. It came with 4GB of RAM. I want to upgrade it to 8GB. Can anybody help with upgrading process. Also will upgrading the RAM void the warranty.
    Regards
    SD

    Im not L50-B owner but I guess there is no separate access to the memory modules at the bottom of the unit.
    Right?
    In such case its necessary to remove the bottom plastic cover and this will definitely void the warranty!!!
    If you want to keep the warranty valid, dont upgrade the RAM by yourself.
    This must be done by authorized service engineer.

  • Satellite L50-B-2C8 - new SSD is not recognized in BIOS settings

    Hello,
    I just bought a new notebook Toshiba Satellite L50-B-2C8 and I also bought Samsung SSD 850 evo 250GB.
    When I try to install the SSD drive instead my HDD the BIOS show "none" in Category SSD/HDD (BIOS not recognize the SSD).
    Please help me.
    My bios version is : 2.00v
    *** someone told me that I need to downgrade my BIOS version to 1.2v, and then the BIOS recognize the SSD drive, so maybe someone here can send me a download link to the 1.2 version of my model L50-B-2C8 .
    Thanks

    From my point of few there is no reason why early BIOS version should recognize the SSD drive and the newest BIOS version doesnt
    But BIOS v1.2 for Satellite L50-B-2C8 PSKTQE series does not exists the v2.0 (at this time) is the latest version and older BIOS versions are not available for this series.
    Furthermore I guess you will need slimply check different SSD drive it could be possible that other SSD drive would be recongized properly.
    By the way: Im owner of Evo 850 SSD drive and as far as I can remember I had to update the SSD drive firmware to use it properly in connection with my other notebook (not Toshiba unit)
    problem solved tnx

  • Satellite L50-A-1C7 - video tdr blue screen error

    When i start my laptop everything works fine but after 2min it freezes and i get video tdr error and need to restart.
    Right know i disable my 740m directly in devicemanager and i dont get any errors.
    when i turn it back on 10min later everything works normally but after restart i need to disable it again.
    Is there a problem met nvidia drivers and how can i fix it ?
    Laptop: Satellite L50-A-1C7

    Hi
    The latest driver can be downloaded from Toshiba driver page but BSOD can be caused also by hardware problem.
    Its just an assumption but probably the graphic card is the troublemaker and probably the driver update will not fix your issue.
    From my point of few you should recover the notebook back to factory settings.
    Perform the check using the notebook configured by Toshiba.
    In case the BSOD will still appear, contact the ASP in order to check the hardware.
    In case the warranty is still valid, the notebooks hardware problem should be fixed free of charge.

  • Satellite L50-B-281 - WiFi Driver won't work

    Hi everybody,
    I have a problem I just can't find a solution to
    I've bought a L50-B-81 without OS, because I have a free W7 licence.
    I used the Driver Download at Toshiba to look for the Drivers.
    For my model (PSKTCE) I was presented two Drivers one for Broadcom and one for Aatheros.
    The Broadcom installer did not do anything so I presume, I don't have Broadcom Hardware.
    The Atheros driver installed only Bluetooth.
    Is there an easy way to determine what the Hardware inside is?
    The device Manager, where the not working devices are marked with this triangle warning sign, tells me it does not know the manufacturer.
    Thanks a lot

  • Satellite L50-B-1P1 - external display is not working

    I have just bought a satellite L50-B-1P1. When I tried to connect the RGB (VGA) port to a TV ( as a external monitor), the display screen of the laptop became smaller and the right part of the whole picture was missing, even when the external monitor was not switched on.
    The laptop screen has left and right display a black background. The picture is located in the middle. Is this supposed to be normal or something is wrong with this laptop?
    All answers are welcomed

    As I understood the message, you have enabled the external display output and could see the picture on the TV.
    The question is; what resolution the TV supported and what external output option did you choose?
    The point is that you can switch to the external display choosing the option; extended desktop, clone display or you can switch off the internal display and show the picture only on external monitor TV.
    In case you have cloned the display, both displays (internal + external) has to use the same resolution! In case the TV would support lower resolution, the internal notebook screen would lower the resolution too!
    I would recommend you to read the user manual it provides some basic notebook knowledge

  • Re: Satellite L50-B05D can't load Win 8.1 - bootable device not found

    Hi
    I have a Satellite L50-B05D and I recently downloaded the bios update and I applied it to my system. When I did it said that it contained the update already. After being on the laptop for a while, I closed the lid and it turnt off. When I turnt it back on Windows wouldn't load up and a message of bootable device not found occured.
    Any help is appreciated
    Thanks

    Did you check the HDD status on the first BIOS page?
    If HDD is OK, the first BIOS page should provide the info about the connected HDD (HDD name)
    At the other hand the HDD might be faulty if its not listed on the first BIOS page.

  • Satellite L50-B-1XF - Win 7 64bit drivers and software

    Hello,
    as I can't find anything about my model - Satellite L50-B-1XF (PSKTUE-04C00WGR) I will try it here...
    I bought two of these (one for me, one for my wife) with Win8.1 installed.
    Well... no need to say that this is one of the worst OS I ever seen and since Tru64 Unix and VMS I have seen many.
    Anyway. I downgraded to Win7 Professional SP1 64Bit - complete re-installed all updates installed, etc.
    Now I have the problem that I can not find anything about the camera.
    Is there any support page here where I can download the appropriate Win764Bit drivers specially for this model?
    Help here is very appreciated!

    Hi Stuart
    The situation is pretty simply and clear, so I'm really wondering you were not able to find drivers, tools and utilities for your notebook model.
    For European notebooks you can download all stuff on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    This is European support page for drivers download. I found your model there and your notebook model is fully supported for Win7 64bit so you can find all drivers, tools and utilities there.
    Please check it out and if there is some problem with installation let us know

  • Satellite L50 won't start up - asks for HDD password

    Hi
    hopefully someone can help me
    I have a Toshiba Satellite L50 laptop and when i start it up it says
    +no bootable device please restart system+
    It is still under waranty as it was only bought 6 months ago.
    I took it back where i bought it and they told me to contact Toshiba.
    I am waiting on a call back.
    I am hoping someone can help. It also asks for HDD password.
    Where do I find that information?

    Hi Kym
    I guess the Satellite L50 cannot find the bootable device (HDD) because the HDD has been secured with an HDD password and without this password the HDD isnt accessible and the system will not boot up properly.
    Did you set such HDD password in the past?
    Im asking because such password isnt set on new notebooks. Such HDD password can be set only by notebook owner
    From my knowledge if you dont know such HDD password, you will not be able to get access to the HDD in such case the HDD would be useless and the data would be lost
    Therefore I would recommend you to check if someone has set the HDD password on your notebook in case you dont know the password, you will need to replace the HDD and to reinstall the system once again.

  • Cannot use Intel widi with my Satellite L50-A-11T

    Hi,
    I have a Satellite L50-A-11T and i've tried to use Intel widi with Windows 8.1 and doesn't work, it says that the system is not compatible.
    With Windows 8 it was ok and worked fine, but in the instruccions for upgrading it said to remove Intel widi.
    Why is that?
    Thanks in advance.

    You misunderstood this info.
    Intel WiDi isnt supported in Win 8.1 on Toshiba notebooks BUT instead of Intel WiDi you can use Miracast.
    But Intel WiDi is not Miracast.
    Intel WiDi was developed by Intel.
    Miracast is an standard supported by developed by WiFi Allianz and Intel is a part of this Allianz
    Windows 8.1 as well as Android 4.2 support the Miracast standard.
    But this does not mean that you can use it always you need the compatible hardware parts.
    In case your TV would not support Miracast standard, you will not be able to use it

  • Satellite L50-B916 - wireless connection issue

    Hello
    I bought my Toshiba Satellite L50-B916 less than 6 months ago, and had to download all the drivers myself because for some reason, the OS didn't come with it.
    Went to the TOSHIBA MEA website to download and install corresponding drivers.
    Downloaded the Atheros wireless driver.
    The Internet connection always gets disconnected on my laptop ,but works just fine on other laptops and devices.
    Not just one connection, all the ones I've tried connecting to.
    Tried removing Atheros and re-installing it, it worked well for a few days ,but connection disrupting again.
    What shall I do to fix this very annoying problem?

    Hmm… does it happen using the notebook in battery mode or also while the AC adaptor is connected to the notebook?
    It could be possible that the WiFi powers saving settings are enabled and therefore the Wlan connection interrupts.
    Go to:
    Windows power options – choose the right power plant – advanced power options.
    Here search for WLan card settings and set it to “best performance”
    You should also set the settings for PCI express to “best performance”
    Additionally go to device manager. Here choose Wlan card properties
    Switch to the last tab called “Power Management” and ensure that the option available in this tab isn’t ticked!

    It's really hard to push "g" and "h" actually those buttons working only when im pushing them hard.
    Is it a reason to go to shop with warranty card or can I fix it myself?
    Thaks for reply.

    >It's really hard to push "g" and "h" actually those buttons working only when im pushing them hard.
    This is hardware related issue.
    Either you would contact the dealer and would try to get the notebook replaced or you would contact the Toshiba authorized service provider available in your country to replace the keyboard.
