    Hi I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M200 I have 2GB (2x1GB) memory and wanted to increase to 3GB (1x1GB + 1x2GB) both rams operate fine independently but if I add more than 2GB memory I get a blank screen, the system is operating but the screen is blank from what I understand the M200 will take up to 4GB. Any ideas

    Toshiba Satellite Pro M200 will indeed take up to 4GB of memory no problem. You might want to see if you get into the BIOS when 3GB is installed. And also switching to a different brand of 2GB might help out as well.

    Hi thanks for your reply no it doesn't got to bios on boot the screen just goes blank from power on. The different ram types I have tried that as well but did not work, some suggested that this model probably may have a 1GB bank limit however doesn't make sense if it takes up to 4GB
