Memory ddr333 - AOpen MX4GVR INTEL 845GV Motherboard

(1) flip the Notebook/Laptop PC over - see Fig.1 below
(2) find the memory cover - it really easy to find in this photo.



Fig.1 Toshiba M35X bottom view - the memory cover is seen at center left and secured by a single screw.

(3) remove the (1) screw securing the memory cover.



Fig. 2 Toshiba M35X laptop shown with memory cover removed and HDD (Hard Disk Drive) removed, and with the HDD cover flipped up.
The RAM (SO-DIMM boards) are visible at center left.
The HDD cover is seen at the bottom of the photo.

(4) Using proper anti-static/static control techniques, clip alligator clip or your anti-static wrist strap to a frame ground of the laptop at an I/O connector or frame ground under the HDD cover.
(5) carefully remove (2) old 256 MB SO-DIMM DDR333 memory modules.
Store old memory boards in the anti-static plastic baggie in which the new memory boards were shipped.
(6) install (2) new 1GB SO-DIMM DDR333 boards, for total of 2GB of system RAM.
(7) reassemble system, and boot OS (operating system).
The laptop's ROM BIOS will auto-detect the new RAM and begin a standard POST (Power-On Self Test).
(8) If OS is MSWindows, it will also auto-detect the new memory, and allocate it to application software.

The technology of the Toshiba Satellite M35X-S349 memory module is called
DDR333, meaning DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic RAM), at a memory bus speed of 333 MHz.
The Form Factor of the DDR memory card is SO-DIMM, which stands for Small Outline DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) (see photo).

Fig.3 Each 1GB SO-DIMM DDR333 memory module will look like this one.
The Toshiba Satellite M35X-S349 supports a maximum of two SO-DIMM memory modules.

Each memory module can hold (a) 256MB, (b) 512MB, or (c) 1GB,
in the SO-DIMM Form Factor compatible with the Toshiba M35X-S349 Notebook PC.

You know, if you can decipher your motherboard, You'll be able to find the intel chipset and do a download. Make sure you save/rename your old.

In you case compatibility is your problem or your memory needs a clean up. First clean up the memory's pins. Use a pencil eraser. Then try only one by one so that you will know if there is a problem in each memory. Insert one of the memory then turn on your PC. If it boot up or it is okay try the other one. Then if it is also okay, try both of it inserted and turn on your PC. If it not okay there is a compatibility problem. Make sure the brands are the same so the compatibility are never be a problem.

Hi,

According to the maintenance manual only 266Mhz Ram can be added to the notebook.
This would be SDRAM.
Hope this helps!!

Kind regards!!!

According to: http://www.shopping.com/xPF-VIA-MB-FOXCONN-VIA-KM400A-400M01-G-6L-R

this motherboard has 2 slots for DDR (184pin) RAM,
and supports a maximum of 1GB of RAM per slot.

Note that DDR RAM comes in 3 speeds: DDR266 (slowest), DDR333, and DDR400 (fastest).

Buy the fastest RAM -- if the motherboard cannot run the RAM at "full" speed, the RAM will automatically slow itself down to a speed that the motherboard will support.

Memory Support
• Two 184-pin, 2.5V DIMM sockets for DDR SDRAM memory modules
• Supports DDR333/266 memory bus
• Maximum installed memory is 2GB

This is what your looking for

Hi,

I think the best solution to your problem would be either to go to www.crucial.com or www.tigerdirect.com . They both have memory configurator tools that will make sure the memory that you are purchasing is compatable with your laptop. That is your safest way to know. I myself prefer tiger direct, they seem to have the lowest prices. the link below will take you right to the memory configurator. If the DDR333 is an option it will let you know. Hope this helps! :)

The Shutle MV42N can take SDRam or DDR
Each memory slot can hold DDR PC2700,DDR PC3200,
up to 2 gig total. the pc 2700 is DDR333 and the PC3200 is DDR400. Why Stop at 256?

IF UR RAM IS SDRAM THEN U CANT UPGRADE TO DDR BUT IF ITS ON DDR RAM THE U SHOULD B ABLE 2 UP GRADE 2 1GIG OV DDR RAM RUNING AT 400MHZ
