Satelite L650-15G - 4GB installed but 3.87GB usable

Hi,
I hope someone out there can help me out. I purchased the above mentioned notebook over the weekend. The std memory configuration for this machine is 3GB of RAM, noticing that it had x64 version of Windows I went out and purchased a 2GB memory module to bump it up to 4GB. Switched on the machine, set it up and checked the memory in system properties, it says 4GB installed 3.87GB usable. On further investigation i found that 137MB of RAM was Hardware Reserved.
Is there anyway i can get this back and run full 4GB of RAM?
Please help.

Hi
The small part of the main memory is locked by graphic card.
The GPU shares a small amount of main RAM. This is controlled automatically by graphic card driver so you cannot change this manually.

    Hi,
    With reference to the link below, this issue is reported to have been fixed by Bios version F.36 ( see the Revision History ) - bios updates are cumulative, so you should just be able to flash the latest version ( F.39 ).

  • Satelite L650/OED - Missing disk space

    Hi,
    I just bought a Toshiba Satelite L650/OED notebook, and in the specifications, it says the storage is 640 GB, but the only hard drive in my computer after I first initalized it is only 583GB, what is missing?
    And I read the user menu, and found that there was a recovery partition which was hidden, so how can I find this partition?
    It seems that the default setting for this notebook is that there is only a hard drive C, but no other dirve disk D or E. So how can I protect my files once I need to reformat the C?
    Thanks

    Hi TYQ,
    I think the problem is that you always have less disk space as you can find on specifications on HDD. On Wikipedia there is an interesting article about Capcity measurements:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive#Capacity
    As you can see, everything is ok with your HDD ;)
    Regarding the recovery partition: You should see it when you go in disk management of Windows. But if you delete it, you are not able to use the HDD recovery anymore.

  • Re: Satellite L650/0E8 - Clean install with Windows 7 64bit

    Hello.
    I have recently purchased a [Toshiba L650/0E8 notebook|http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/products/notebooks/satellite/l650/psk1ja-0e8017] and accidentally installed the Windows 7 32-bit version.
    I've backed up a "recovery image" of my computer into 4 DVD-R's using Toshiba Recovery Media Creator. I need to use Adobe Master Collection CS5, but this requires the 64-bit edition in order to use After Effects CS5 and Premiere Pro CS5. I've gathered by reading some articles on the net that I have to do a "clean install", but as I've always had a technician set up my computer and have never used a Toshiba laptop before, I am unaware as to how to back up all my files, programs, drivers, etc before I reinstall Windows 7 to a 64-bit version.
    Is that what those recovery DVD's do? Is there anywhere I can download the required Toshiba software/drivers for the 64-bit version? I apologise if these questions sound really silly. I am honestly rather confused as to what to do.

    Hey,
    First of all I must say its good that you created the Toshiba recovery disk as mentioned in user manual. :)
    Some other users here forget it because they dont read their user manual.
    Anyway, with this disk you can restore the preinstalled Windows version (Windows 7 64bit) with all drivers and tools. That means you dont need any additional drivers and tools from Toshiba, everything will be installed automatically. You get out of box settings back.
    But if you use the Toshiba recovery disk it will wipe the whole HDD so you have to make a backup of all your important files that you still need after Windows installation.
    Therefore I would recommend an external HDD. They provide a lot of disk space to backup all your data and with some models you get also backup software but you can also use the integrated Windows backup tool, its also nice and works well.
    If you have more questions, please let us know! ;)

    my ipad has 4gb availble but still can not download 1.8gb movie what do i have to do?

    The GB size of the download file is the compressed size (like .zip or .dmg). When the file is installed/uncompressed it can be 2-3 times larger.

  • Satellite L650-15G - HDD starts after 10 to 15 seconds

    Hi my dear ,
    please can anyone help,
    I have my Satellite L650-15G, I bought it on 1-10-2010. I have a problem that happens only with battery, when I press power button, I hear the fan starting, the wirless lamp, the power lamp lighting then but not the hard disk lamp, after 2 to 3 seconds the laptop shut down. If I pressed power button again after that or I pressed again it during that, the hard disk lamp light and it start normally. This never occur when I connect charger with battery or when I use it with the adapter only.
    I changed battery from the Toshiba, but no way. I changed power plans, made adjustements in the power managements of bios (1.8 version after I updated ), made disable, enable to some features in device manager but no way.
    The most strange thing that many times it starts normal and other times it makes so. Also this can be manifested sometimes by long boot time, which means that sometimes I hear fan, see wirless, power lights and after 10 to 15 sec the hard disk lights and starts.
    Please help me
    I went to Toshiba warranty center in cairo and they checed it on tester then said nothing abnorml with processor, hard, rams

    Hi
    Wait a moment; does this means that your notebook boots up ONLY with connected AC adaptor?
    Hmm usually in the first step the battery should be checked to ensure that this is not a battery related issue but it seems that you have already checked this and the new battery didnt help to sort out this issue
    I think this is a motherboard problem possibly power supply electronic issue but this is just an assumption therefore I think that you will need to ask an professional technician for checking this part.
    Sorry this is everything what I can suggest you

  • Issue with ARD 3.0 not pushing out Installs, Says its installing but not

    Issue with ARD 3.0 not pushing out Installs, Says its installing but not
    Has anyone seen this. It seems to happen with ARD 3, have not seen this in ARD 2.
    I go to the Install Packages on Target Computers, put in: 10.4.7 Combo (for the correct CPU, PPC or Intel), security updates, QT 7.1.2, etc.
    Push it to Macs I can connect to, observe and control.
    The progress bar copies the files (in some instances it does not) and then it just hangs there, bar does not move, Installs never finish, not good, very odd.

    Is it the same clients that have the problem every time? Are those clients doing anything cpu intensive? Have you tried rebooting the affected clients?
    Maybe try a smaller package on those clients.

    I am getting very frustrated with this. When I try to install the Creative Cloud thing it asks me to pay even though it says try for free.

    Hi Mirrormonolith,
    Please try the following steps assuming its a MAC:
    1) Open Activity monitor and Force quit Adobe CEF Helper, Creative cloud, Adobe IPC Broker & Crash Deamon if available.
    2) Try to open, if doesn't work then go to Applications>> Adobe Creative cloud>> Right click>> Get Info>> Click on the Add sign>> Select the user you are logged in>> Give Read and write access.
    3) If that doesn't work then enable the root user and launch to update there, check this link on how to enable/sign in to root user Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X
    Please let me know of that worked.

  • Flash Player 10 installed but not woking

    I have spent hours and hours trying to solve this issue on my own from all the adobe forums and forums on other websites about this issue. Still can't get FP to work and I need it working ASAP for my on-line college classes. Getting very desperate and would be incredibly grateful for a solution if anyone can help.
    Note: Just before writing this I uninstalled FP active X via control panel and rebooted. The files are still in macromed as listed here, but I have uninstalled FP for a(NOTHER) fresh start.
    Here's are the notes I have so far after seeing/trying help on other posts...
    Flash player was working now every time I need to use FP it tells me to install but it is already installed.
    Program does not show under Start, All Programs but it does show in the Control Panel uninstall list.
    I don’t remember exactly when FP stopped working, but I’m not sure I’ve been doing much recently that would have required it, so may be longer than I think. Probably relatively recently though.
    I have searched and searched for answers in the forums so I’ve tried several things people suggested, still not working.
    Wondering if the problem is this….the ActiveX control is not showing in Manage Add-ons even though I clicked to install it when installing FP.
    SYSTEM INFO:
    Vista 32 bit
    IE 8
    Foxfire 3.6.8
    Shockwave Player ver. 11.5
    Norton 360 ver. 4.2.0
    Google toolbar ver. 4.0 w/pop-up blocker enabled
    I am the Administrator and only user on my laptop
    What I’ve tried so far:
    Adobe website shows FP video that it was successfully installed right after, but I just tested again and the Adobe site says to view content I JavaScript enabled and need FP installed.  FP is installed however, and still not working.
    Tested Shockwave Player through Adobe site and it says it’s installed and working
    Checked to ensure Shockwave Flash Object & Java were enabled in IE tools, managae add-ons
    Checked that no older versions of Java were installed
    IE Security Level to medium
    Uninstalled Adobe Flash Player, rebooted, reinstalled, rebooted  (a few times)
    Uninstalled, rebooted, installed through cnet’s downloads
    Checked for updates for IE, Foxfire, Flash Player, Adobe Reader, & Java
    Files listed under acromed folder:
                Flash10i.ocx
                FlashInstall (text doc)
                FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.dll
                FlashUtil10i_ActiveX
                Install (text doc)
    Ok, think that's all I have at the moment. Please oh please, someone help me before I throw myself out the window!

    Thank you so much for your time!  Okay, I think I have what you need, if I understood it all correctly. Here goes...
    I just installed FP again, did not get the video showing on Adobe site that it was successful even though the download said it was.
    Uninstalled using Adobe uninstaller, then tried install once more with the same result.
    The macromed Flash folder still has the same files as listed before:
    Flash10i.ocx
    FlashInstall (text doc)
    FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.dll
    FlashUtil10i_ActiveX
    install (text doc)
    In Control Panel I see:
    Adobe Download Manager
    Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX
    Adobe Reader 9.3.4
    Adobe Shockwave Player 11/5
    Showing & enabled in IE Add-ons:
    get_atlcom Class
    Shockwave Flash Object
    Adobe PDF Link Helper
    Adobe PDF Reader
    The Active X Control for Flash Player is not listed in IE
    Don’t see any relevant add-ons in Firefox. BTW, I don’t usually use FF and only downloaded it again because I’d read that FP was working for some people in FF when it wasn’t in IE.  So, if we don’t get FF working with FP I’m good with that.
    No NPSWF files in the Flash folder for me to right click.
    Can't give you any version numbers.
    Did I miss anything?

  • Installed but not found on computer

    I've successfully installed the latest 10.1 for my 64-bit laptop with Windows 7.  A check by Adobe confirms that it was properly installed, and that I have the correct version for my computer.
    AND YET, there is no icon for it anywhere, it doesn't come up on my list of Programs, when I enter "Adobe Flash Player" in the search bar it shows no such program, and when I try to play a FLV file, it won't give me Flash Player as an option. So..... I have it on my computer, but I apparently am not allowed to see it or access it?
    I've uninstalled and re-installed several times, and cannot for the life of me figure out what the problem is.  Any help for this maddening situation?

    Hi,
      Yes, I read his comments and I made sure Shockwave Flash Object was enabled in IE as he suggested. I am trying to make a flip book. One of the posts here in the forum said to make a SWF file, which I did. But now I can't figure out how to do anything with it. I thought Flash Reader was the right program to look at it, but maybe I'm wrong? Maybe I need Flash itself? The flip book thing has me pretty frustrated and confused. All the sites and software I've tried are poor quality. I was hoping I could figure out how to do it through Adobe to get better quality.

    Re: Installed but not found on computer
    Hi, Flash Player is a browser plugin, not a stand alone Player. You should have Shockwave Flash Object in add ons in IE and make sure it is enabled.
    Your Flash files are in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash 
    You may want the Adobe Media Player:http://www.adobe.com/products/mediaplayer/   
    Hope that helps,

    You're getting "No such file or directory" errors because you're running a precompiled 32 bit binary on a 64 bit machine without having all the required 32 bit libraries. Try and install every lib32 counter part to the dependencies listed on the AUR page.
    I thought it was because of being 64 bit.
    I was looking for that dependencies list... where is it?
