Re: Memory upgrade for a Satellite 1800-921 PIII 1.1GHz...

I am trying to find out the memory upgrade for my Satellite 1800-921 PIII 1.1GHz... Part Number : PS183E-00HTT-EN .
It currently has a Nanya 256MB SDR-133 Mhz-CL3 & I undestand it can be upgraded with an additional 256Mb card.
The only problem is I cant seem to find one compatible! Any ideas what is require & where I could get it from?

Hello
The compatible module is PC100 256MB with part number PA3069U-1M25.

Memory Upgrade on a Satellite 1800-712

Hello,
I want to upgrade the RAM of my 1800-712.
Actually, i have an SDRAM PC133 256 MB.
It's strange as the bus on this type of machine seems to be at 100 Mhz !
I want to install a Kingston Memory in the second slot.
So, is it mandatory to install the KTT SO100/256 memory (compatible as the Kingston configurator shows), or can i put the KTT SO133/256 ?
As the second is cheaper, i would want to install it ?
Can you confirm the compatibility ?
Thank you.

Hi
It is recommended to use the module with the same bus speed. Probably it will work but in my opinion you should not look at the money just on compatibility and be sure that upgrade parts will not be damaged.

Memory Upgrade for a Satellite Pro 4320

I own a Satellite Pro 4320. It has the factory installed memory (64 Mb), and I want to expand it. I read in the manual that it is possible to install up to 576 Mb. But in other web pages and documents, I read that 320 Mb is the maximum memory.
Does anybody know what is the right number?
Does anybody know where to find 256 Mb modules(if they can be installed)? I have found only 128 Mb modules.
Thanks in advance

Hi
I have found information that 320 MB are max. for this unit. I have also no lucky to find 256 MB RAM module for this unit. There are two possibilities. Either you can contact service partner in your country and order one module or you must find some notebook hardware parts offerer in your country.

Satellite 1800-921: built-in aerial behind the display?

Can anybody tell me if the Satellite 1800-921 has a built in aerial behind the display?
Thanks
Peter

I suppose you mean some kind of antenna? As far as I know behind the display is placed WLAN antenna for models with supported WLAN connectivity.
I was not able to find any info about Satellite 1800-921 but if the unit is delivered without WLAN I suppose there is no WLAN antenna behind the display. By the way: I believe the whole Satellite 1800 series is delivered without WLAN option.

Black screen problem on Satellite 1800-921

Hi there
My satellite 1800-921 has started giving me a black screen after i turn it on. It loads up fine, goes to the desktop and then the screen goes blank and nothing i can do will get it back. You can just make out the dialogue boxes on the screen so I am not sure if its a screen problem or the things i see on the screen are just ghosts...
It's a bit worrying!
Has anyone else had this problem? So far it only seems to happen when i turn it on. I usually have to turn it off and start again to get it back and then it works fine.
thanks
Nancy :)

Hi,
at older series it can be that the FL inverter is broken or the backlight tupe is damaged. In both cases you can see the screen but without backlight!
To differi if it is a hard- or software based error you should start the notebook and press immediately ESC to enter BIOS. Then the machine should run a half hour in BIOS. When the failure occures it is quite safe that some hardware is broken. Otherwise it is software based and a recovery with the Toshiba Recovery CD should solve the problem!
Bye TOK

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

Memory upgrade problems on Satellite L30-134

I have just bought 2 x 1GB memory PC4200 for my L30-134 and installed them they work fine in BIOS, show up and read as they should do, but when windows is booting up it will crash with both modules installed, only ever gets to the screen with the loading bar going across and then I get blue screen.
Forgot to make a note of the error code I am afraid... (Fool I know). If I remove one of the modules and install the original 512 module with just 1 of the 1GB ones it will work fine. BIOS has been updated to the latest 3.10 version and still I get the same problem...
because all seems fine from within BIOS I am thinking that its more likely to be a software (windows) problem of some kind maybe some corrupt data in the registry or a virus maybe... has anybody any ideas?
Also, the laptop is actually my step sons and he really wants to have the CPU upgraded from the Celeron 410 to one that's a little faster. When first looking into this we was told that several CPUs were compatible (although not really worth the hassle of installing) they were cel m 450 2 GHz, pent dual core t2060 and t2080, and also the core duo t2250,so he bought the t2250,and no surprises it wouldn't work, or should I say it powered up with no display and the shut off and just epeated the cycle. So did not take a genius to work out it wasn't compat...
I know the t2080 are used in the L30's and are 1.73 533 FSB with 1MB L2 cache- 65nm and do stepping. The t2250 is identical apart from the L2 cache is 2MB and the stepping varies from do to mo depends when u bought it... seeing as ow he already has the CPU he's gonna sell it on and use the cash to buy the one that will work. If anybody has any info that could help make sure that he does not end up going round in circles I would really appreciate it...
Oh and just to make you all laugh it was Toshiba tech line staff member that told him that the CPU would work and that the L30 was able to take 2 x 1GB memory and never once mentioned that there may be issues with both upgrades...
Issues as in neither soddin work....lmao

Hi!
The specs. you posted are correct. Xpress 200 could support dual channel: "Variants available with single or dual channel system memory support ". But there is nothing about dual channel mode in Xpress 200M specs. I have identical modules, but EVEREST doesn't say the modules are running in dual channel mode. So I think the info you found on the website gives the answer, but here are some explanation from Wikipedia to clarify the definitions:
*Dual-channel:*
"Dual-channel-enabled memory controllers utilize two 64-bit data channels, resulting in a total bandwidth of 128-bits, to move data from RAM to the CPU. In order to achieve this, two or more DDR/DDR2 SDRAM memory modules must be installed into matching banks, which are usually color coded on the motherboard. These separate channels allow each memory module access to the memory controller, increasing throughput bandwidth."
*DDR:*
"DDR SDRAM or double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory is a class of memory integrated circuit used in computers. It achieves greater bandwidth than the preceding single data rate SDRAM by transferring data on the rising and falling edges of the clock signal (double pumped). Effectively, it doubles the transfer rate without increasing the frequency of the memory bus."
*DDR2:*
"Like DDR before it, DDR2 cells transfer data both on the rising and falling edge of the clock (a technique called "dual pumping"). The key difference between DDR and DDR2 is that in DDR2 the bus is clocked at twice the speed of the memory cells, so four words of data can be transferred per memory cell cycle. Thus, without speeding up the memory cells themselves, DDR2 can effectively operate at twice the bus speed of DDR."
*UMA (Unified Memory Architectrue):*
"In computer architecture, Shared Memory Architecture (SMA) refers to a design where the graphics chip does not have its own dedicated memory, and instead shares the main system RAM with the CPU and other components."

Memory upgrade for KM3M-V mobo (aka MS 7061-01S)

Hi, this is my first post. I've read the guidelines and searched for an existing topic but can't find one that quite matches what I want to ask, so I'm posting a new topic - please forgive me I have erred!
I have a TIME Computers desktop (please don't ask why), mobo being a MSI KM3M-V (also known as MS7061-01S), which is based on VIA KM266 chipset. CPU = Sempron 2400+.
I've just installed a new graphics card, an ATI All-in-Wonder 9200SE, with associated drivers and software including Catalyst (which menat I had to instal MS .net framework too). This seems to be working OK but overall speed not great. (Also, for some reason I don't seem to be getting any sound at all, but I expect I can fix that with a bit of trail and error.)
My next step is to increase the memory. Existing memory installed is one 256MB UDIMM module, but I'm aiming to remove it and instal 2 x 1GB UDIMM modules, which I know the mobo can take. Naturally I'm looking to get the maximum available performance (subject to stability considerations), so I'm looking to go for the highest bandwidth/speed the system can take. This is where it gets tricky. Having searched Crucial, Kingston and other memory configurators plus various other tech articles and indeed MSI's own website, I've reached the conclusion that I can select memory in PC2100/ 2700/ etc up to 4000 or even higher provided that the maximum memory chip size (density) does not exceed 128MB.
But I'm not sure about the speed limitation: is there any point in buying DIMMs capable of DDR333 or 400 - will my chipset limit the speed to 266MHz anyway? I'll be grateful for any expert views.
Operating System: Windows XP Home Edition (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 2 (2600.xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158)

Thanks for the quick reply, Exo. I agree with you 100% that it's best to go for (at least) PC3200 with a view to a likely future upgrade. As I see it, it makes sense to go for the highest spec available at reasonable cost - so I would probably aim for PC4000 rather than 3200. There doesn't seem to be any downside in doing so (provided one is happy to tweak the BIOS where necessary), and even the MSI MOBO spec seems to endorse this view - see bit picked out in red below:
http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=KM3M-V&class=mb
Main Memory
• Supports four memory banks by using two 184-pin DDR DIMMs
• Supports a maximum memory size of 2GB.
• Supports 2.5v DDR SDRAM DIMM
Due to the High Performance Memory design, motherboards or system configurations may or may not operate smoothly at the JEDEC (Joint Electron Device Engineering Council) standard settings (BIOS Default on the motherboard) such as DDR voltage, memory speeds and memory timing. Please confirm and adjust your memory setting in the BIOS accordingly for better system stability.
Example: Kingston HyperX DDR500 PC4000 operates at 2.65V, 3-4-4-8, CL=3.

Memory Upgrade for T61

Hi friends,
I have a T61 7663-xxx system, with 1 GB PC2-5300 667 MHz RAM. My Front Side Bus is 800 MHz ( I think so!), Everest software reports my memory controller is dual channel capable, and ~ 85% physical utilization of RAM. I have a nVidia Quadro NVS 140M 128 MB graphics card, but Everest reports 512 MB ?
I would like to upgrade my RAM, and buy some online.
a) Should I buy a similar 2 GB PC2-5300 RAM for my system for performance boost, running Windows XP 32 bit? If so, should I buy Lenovo RAM only, for maintaining my 3 year warranty intact?
Only ThinkPad and Lenovo memory will assume ThinkPad and Lenovo notebook systems limited warranty
b) What are the other best alternatives for good quality, reliable laptop memory, besides Lenovo?
c) Would it be better if I am able to buy RAM which can match my FSB? Will this have any performance benefit? Do these similar FSB speed RAM exist?
Kindly suggest top memory makers, if any.
I could not find any Lenovo 800 MHz memory from their website.
Kindly help me solve my memory upgrade problem.
I am a mechanical engineering student, hence I don't have any idea about FSB and the like, so I request the learned members to cast light on this area.
Info about reputed online sites in US, with fast delivery will be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hmm. As far as I know, the internal graphics card can't be upgraded. There's some dock you can buy that lets you add a graphics card for use with an external monitor, but I don't know much about it. The cpu is more likely to be upgradeable, but don't attempt unless you know a decent amount about hardware servicing. Also, make sure the cpu will be supported by the motherboard! Best not to buy one with a clockspeed higher than what Lenovo sold (core 2 duo at 2.6 ghz).
Why do you want to upgrade so much? I run 2.1ghz with discrete graphics and 2gb ram under Vista, and it runs beautifully. If you have integrated graphics, then that might be a bit of a pain, but hey, you've got better battery life!
Anyway, I'd look more into de-cluttering your computer to speed stuff up. Remove anything you don't need, especially Lenovo tools that run in the background and you may not need. Turn off search indexing (slower searches, but faster overall performance). There are some nice guides online, if you google "vista tuneup."
Good luck! Enjoy your T61 as it is! It's a lovely laptop

Memory upgrade for Satellite A10-S811 PSA10E

I want to upgrade the memory on my old laptop i've found the manual and read a bit in it.
Apparently it uses PC2100 DDR (266 Mhz) has two memory slots and only allows up to 512 mb modules.
Is it at all possible to use larger and/or faster modules.
I'm hoping the low speed and size has something to do with the time it was produced before larger modules were as common as they are today.
Also how many pins are there on modules, i guess DDR modules for laptops are different from those for desktop computers.
My laptop:
Toshiba Satellite A10
SA10-S811
Model no: PSA10E-0ZJ57-DK
Any help is very much appreciated.

Hi!
Yes, maybe Intel said that the chip set supports 2GB but its only known to me that the Satellite supports 1GB max.
You can try it with 2GB but I think it will not work. The BIOS and other factors must support more RAM.
As far as I know you buy double sided RAM because the notebook has only two slots. This fact is only interesting with more than two slots.

Memory upgrade for Satellite P15: How to install it?

Hello everyone, first time poster needing some help please....
My Satellite P15 has 512mb (2x256bm) ram installed and I'm looking to put 1gb ram into each of the two slots to bring it up to the maximum supported 2gb. At first I wasn't sure which sort of memory but I ran a search on crucial.com's system scanner and discovered I need DDR PC2700 SODIMM modules of the 200 pin variety I believe. I opened up the flap next to the heat sink / fan and found the existing memory sticks but i'm amazed how difficult they are to get out. I can't seem to get them to budge and obviously I'm wary of applying to much force - does anyone know of an easy way to remove the memory sticks via the bottom of the laptop or will I have to go through the whole taking apart the keyboard etc which there are no guides on the net that i can find?
Also, as 2 x 1gb sticks is quite an expense I want to make sure I get it right. I was looking at this item on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-2GB-2-X-1GB-PC2700-333-SODIMM-LAPTOP-RAM-2700-1G_W0QQitemZ230079253310QQihZ013QQcategoryZ172QQss PageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
and it seems like the sort of thing i'm after although I'm not too sure about the chipset config sizes quoted as I'm not particularly sure what this P15 laptop requires. Is that ebay item the sort of thing which will work in the P15?
Sorry this has got quite long winded but I really want to get it right and I don't have much expertise in the area.
Thanks for any help and advice.

Hi,
I think the memory from ebay will work in your machine.
Removing the memory module normally is very easy.
After removing the plate on the bottom you just have to push apart the brackets, which hold the module at its side. Then the memory will jump up and you can pull it out.
Bye

Memory upgrade on a Satellite A100-912

I own a Satellite a100-912 and I want to upgrade its memory!
As it seems, this model supports only PC2-4200 DDR2 SODIMM modules (533 Mhz). Before bying a memory module that might regret, I want to know if there will be any compatibility issues if I use to this laptop PC2-6400 DDR2 SODIMM module (800 Mhz).
Is it going to work even at lower clock speed (533 Mhz) or is it going to be a total waste of money?

As far as I know the FSB is able to handle 667Mhz modules.
You can use lower modules (533Mhz) without any problems but modules with higher Mhz will not run with full speed due to the limited FSB.
So I dont recommend buying 800Mhz modules. Firstly they are not supported and secondly its waste of money!

Memory upgrade for HP Compaq 6000 Pro SFF

Hi all!.
I've got a problem for upgrading RAM memory on my HP Compaq 6000 Pro SFF. In fact, upgrading is from 2GB to 4GB.
I think all technical details are the same ones. So, there're two memory modules on my PC (ELPIDA 1GB 1Rx8 64 bit DDR3 1333 PC3-10600 CL9 240 DIMM).
Now, I'd like to install only a new 4GB memory module from Kinsgton (KVR13N9S8/4 - 4GB 1Rx8 512M x 64-Bit PC3-10600
CL9 240-Pin DIMM).
Finally, there's a 5 beeps cycle sound at PC power on. So, machine doesn't work. Would you mind to write down what's the problem?
Thanks very much.

Do you have a black memory slot and 3 white ones? Which slot are you putting the 4 gig DIMM into? Have you tried it with the 4 gig in the black slot and the 2 x 1 gig modules in the white slots?
