giving out bad information. Look at the model of laptop he has. Then look at what type of memory it will accept.
DDR2 will NOT fit into that laptop. The slots are different for DDR, DDR2, and DDR3.
That laptop will only accept DDR3. This is what type of memory needs to be in the laptop:

And it even says so right on Toshiba's website here:

OP, I would take back the RAM you purchased and get the one I have listed above.

Can you explain exactly what I need to do to fit them so that I don't do the same thing again if you see what I mean as I badly want to upgrade the memory....thanks
