Nadogradnja laptopa... RAM :)

[DoX_Chabar]

Imam Toshibin Satellite 1605CDS...
Ima AMD K6-2 450Mhz
32mb rama...
4,5gb disk
cd čitač
ugl. Win98SE se lijepo vrti... ali ja bi gore stavio XP

Nasao sam da ide max 192mb rama u laptop, a svugdje su modeli od 256mb po trgovinama... (SO DIMM SDRAM)

Mogu li staviti 256mb rama pa da radi kao 192mb ili moram uzeti 192mb koje nigdje nemogu pronaci? Dosta bi bilo i 128mb rama

[shock]

Nađoh u specifikaciji da on ima 32MB rama, a da je maximalno 160, što znači da bi ti vjerovatno mogao ubaciti još jedan modul od 128MB.

192MB modul ne postoji.

Nadograđivat sodimm sdram je dosta nezahvalno. Postoje mnoge nekompatibilnosti. Ja sam uzeo twinmos 256mb (iako mi laptop podržava 256mb) na dva laptopa ta pločica nije htjela radit dok na jednome je. Dakle preporuka moja je da prvo pokušaš isprobat dal radi. Ako hoćeš imam ti ja jednu pločicu od 64mb viška, platiš pivu i dobiješ je.....

Kako je već rečeno, proizvođač na tom modelu podržava 160 Mb (32 već ugrađeno + 128 u dodatnom modulu). Memory info: PC100 SDRAM SODIMMs Memory Type, za dodatni modul: 128MB Module 16x64-100MHz PC100, 144p SO DIMM, 3.3v, Sync. Obzirom da već instaliranu memoriju (32 Mb) nemožeš mjenjati postoji mogućnost nekompatibilnosti. Na Toshiba support forumu sam našao info o nadogradnji ram - a na tom modelu, ali kako imaju smotanu organizaciju istog bez direktnog linka evo copy - paste:

Hello
I have a 2nd hand Toshiba Satellite 1605cds/4.3 (an amd k6-2 450 mhz based system).
It has 32 MB of ram on board, and a so-dimm slot to put in a memory of 128 MB.

But I have read this webpage:

http://fandelem.com/toshiba2.html

where it says that it can be upgraded with a 256 MB memory module!!

I have plugged it and it shows correctly 288 MB (32 MB on board + 256 MB on the slot) in the bios.
When I boot from the Windows 98 SE partition, it shows the 288 amount of ram.

...but when I boot to the Windows 2000 Professional partition, it shows a blue screen saying that the bios is not an enhanced ACPI bios. It says that I have to push F7 key during the installation of Windows 2000 to disable ACPI and install HAL.

But If I remove the 256 MB slot, Windows 2000 boots correctly without any problem.


I have tried re-installing Windows 2000 pushing the F7 key during the installation, but then Windows 2000 only shows the 32 MB of on board ram.


So, what can I do to run Windows 2000 and the 256 MB module??
The bios is the latest that can be download in toshiba web page.

Thanks for all and sorry for my english.

Hello

I know that this laptop only supports a 128 Mbytes so-dimm module.

But If the BIOS screen and Windows 98 Second Edition shows the total RAM and works well, why windows 2000 can not do the same?

Hi

According to your description W2k says to update the HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer). In Windows 2000 there are several ways to troubleshoot issues related to the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) that may occur as a result of misdetection, an outdated or non-compliant Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) Basic Input/Output System (BIOS), or an incorrectly or manually installed computer type.

For further information please check this Microsoft support site:

But as I know Toshiba support only the 128MB on this unit and if you want to use more ram you can do it on your own risk!

Thanks.
I will do a image of the hard disk to another partition using Norton Ghost so I can test changing the HAL without loosing data.

Thank you very much.

Jedini razlog nadogradnje laptopa je to što mi treba ADSL internet na laptopu... Nemam LAN, ali imam USB, a Kasda mi ima USB... Jedina pozitivna stvar tog routera/modema... :P
File sharing radi, ali nikako nemogu net napraviti da radi... Ima netko neku ideju kako?

Stavi gore XP i radit će sve normalno. Samo kad instaliraš pogasi procese, imaš pod sekcijom operativni susstvai koji procesi nisu potrebni.

Sada kad ima 32mb rama?

[shock]

Može ti XP raditi i sa 32MB, samo što će biti jako spor, ipak bi trebao ubaciti bar još 64MB, ako ne nađeš modul od 128.

Idem probat stavit s 32mb... Ovo mi se čini kao nemoguća misija... Idem probat... btw, na frendovom starom kompu (celeron900Mhz, 64mb ram) radio brže nego na mom athlonu (128mb)... xp automatski gasi dosta servisa kad imas 64mb rama tako da... Idem probat...

EDIT: Ne ide s 32mb rama... Odmah mi prekine instalaciju i traži 64mb rama...
