• For Dimension 4600 AGP graphics card

  Hi all

  I recently acquired an old Dimension 4600. I'll use it on the side for general use for example browsing the internet, email, etc. Nothing heavy. Its current specifications are;

  Intel Pentium 4 Northwood 2.8GHz 512 Kb 533FSB

  4 GB RAM PC3200

  NVIDIA Geforce 5200 128 MB AGP

  Windows XP Professional 32-bit (can install Win 7)

  I would go on a little adventure upgrade that I find it rewarding and it gives me experience in hardware components.

  For now, I can't play videos from YouTube above 480 p as a bottleneck by the graphics card. I think I can get my hands on a Nvidia Geforce 7950GT 512 MB AGP for about £20. This is the fastest Nvidia card for the AGP slot.

  Is - this work on a 4600 and allow the best YouTube video playback? The P4 would then become the bottleneck? I think I will also replace the power supply. A model of 400w would suffice?

  In addition, an SSD on the old interface SATA 1.5 would be an improvement on the current IDE HDD? Of course, I won't sink money in old material but a SSD can be put in any latest system.

  Sorry for all the questions!

  Do not forget that at the end of the era of the AGP, ATI made the fastest AGP cards.  I have a Dimension 4550 discount.  I made a point to get the fastest AGP card ever made for her - an ATI Radeon HD 3850 512 MB AGP.  It is a huge map, IIRC and barely enter the 4550.  Unfortunately, I don't remember how various time graphics cards would process the video.  But the 3850 AGP was the best, there wasn't, at least for the games.  IIRC, same card ATI X 1950 Pro and X 1650 Pro were faster than the fastest Nvidia cards.  (I'm not a fan dedicated ATI or Nvidia - all my current cards are Nvidia, because right now they are the best).

  Hope this works, an SSD would you give an improvement in the overall responsiveness, due to its fast seek times, which is especially important for smaller files.  Not sure how much improvement, though.  Good point, it's that an SSD can be used in the most recent machines as well.

• Boot from USB flash for Dimension 4600?

  I searched on the Dell support site to see if the BIOS

  on a Dimension 4600 will allow me to boot from a USB flash memory

  stick?  My BIOS is version A07, who apparently does not, but

  I wonder if all the versions of the BIOS for a 4600

  Let him?  I don't want to Flash my BIOS if there is anything that I need

  the new versions of BIOS, but I'm also curious about hyperthreading

  the most recent BIOS functions.  I wish there was a list of improvements

  each version of the BIOS on a single page.  I have not found a way of

  determine what has been added in each version of the BIOS after A07.

  Thank you

  If the USB device is present when you turn it on and is bootable, it is possible to change the boot priority order.  The device must be bootable however.  I use Sandisk Cruiser readers to ADAPT because they don't stick as to be broken and are easily hidden if hooked up to the rear of the machine.

• Upgrading CPU for Dimension 4600.

  Hi, I am currently using a Dell Dimension 4600 with Pentium 4 processor clocked at 2.66 Ghz Socket 478, I read somewhere

  only the motherboard i've got will take up to a 3.2 Ghz CPU. I was going to buy a Pentium 4 3 Ghz SL7e4 that supports Hyper Threading technology. What I want to know is, will my support of the Dimension of this processor. I don't know where else to ask. Also I guess it's a prescott because she has a 1 mb L2 cache am I have reason to believe that they can become quite hot, can I do something for cooling or can I just use the old radiator and fan.

  Cheers for your help.

Similarly, what is the graphics card for this device driver, I'm only using standard view type (display portable Panel 1024 x 768 on super vga) thank you.

  Hello

  Well, as far as I know, this unit is designed for a Japanese market.
  In this case you will not be able to find the drivers for this unit on the European site of Toshiba.
  I also checked the other sites of Toshiba but unsuccessfully ;(
  I guess you must visit the Toshiba site to the Japan. Maybe you will find some information on this laptop.

• What disk capacity HARD Satellite A20 S-103 supports?

  Hello everyone and sorry for the bad English ;)
  I want to improve my laptop HARD drive but I don't know what cell maximum supported size?
  It's a Satellite A20 s-103, with Intel Pentium 4 2.8 GHz processor.
  Can you help me with this?

  I think buy a 160 GB Samsung HARD drive! :)
  Its very important question for me, and I couldn't be able to find an answer yet.

  Sincerely! :)

  Hello

  For me, the upgrade for the 160 GB HARD drive is questionable.
  I don't know that the BIOS recognises this large size m.
  I know that the laptop should recognize the unique sizes such as 30 GB, 40 GB, 60 GB or 80 GB.

  Of course, you can try to connect the 160 GB and it would be very interesting to know the results. Please report the details...

• Denied access in writing to a disk external hard drive for Windows XP laptop.

  I have my laptop running on Windows XP. Recently I am facing difficulties to copy the files to my portable hard drive to an external hard drive (Intenso) - the error message "Unable to create the new folder - access denied".

  Surprisingly, the last time that I triedto copy some files was in December 2010 and everything worked fine. Even more surprising is that when I'm trying to copy files from my laptop to desktop hard disk Intenso I barely have problems at all! It works very well. Also, the operating system of my portable desktop is also WindowsXP.

  Tilak

  It seems that the hard drive is formatted with NTFS, and you must add the "everyone" to the root of the drive with ALL the account permissions and leaves all of the subfolders will inherit this setting.

• Adding an additional HARD drive to Dell Dimension 4600

  HARD drive how much can this system take, I ask because I want to add an additional hunting with taken all readers currently in PC (2). Any help would be appreciated. Regards.Johno65

  Hi John,.

  Thank you for your response.

  Dimension 4600 system board connectors are as follows:

  • Connector 40 pin primary IDE channel
  • Connector 40 pin IDE secondary channel
  • Floppy drive 34 pin
  • 7-pin Serial ATA connector (2)

  The Dimension 4600 supports up to 4 ATA/100 devices on 2 IDE channels. However, it has flanges/casing for two drives internally accessible only. If you do not connect a third drive internally, there is no place to fix in the system chassis (such as the hard drive bays can contain only 2 hard drives) so it could be hung out of the system. Alternatively, you can connect external USB hard drives as needed on the system.

  Answer please if you have other queries.

  Thank you and best regards.

• On Dimension 4600 SATA controller compatible with SATA 3 Gb/s disks without jumpering?

  Does anyone know if the on the Dimension 4600 SATA controller (I presume it's SATA 1.5 Gb/s) will work with the latest SATA 3 Gb/s disks without jumpering? I know that the discs themselves are backward compatible, BUT there has been some problems with the old controllers (these first generation SATA controllers include the following chipsets VT8237, VT8237R, VT6420, VT6421L, SIS760, SIS964) requiring jumpering, see:

  http://Seagate.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/Seagate.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=3116
  http://wdc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/wdc.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=1337

  Bottom line, do I need a date or not? I heard that sometimes if the rider is not installed, the drive works fine for awhile and then has problems. I prefer to avoid this...

• Portege 7010CT: max capacity HARD disk support + CPU

  Hello
  Since I am a student I can't afford a new laptop (unfortunately) so I have to use my old 7010... That's why I think a small update... a bigger HARD drive (used)... But I cannot find anywhere the maximum size HARD drive for the 7010 - everyone knows, or experience with the largest drives that small 4.3?

  Also - is it possible to change the CPU with a faster mobile P2?

  Any help would be GREAT

  Hello

  I put really t exactly know the limit of the capacity of the HARD drive used on Portege 7010but, I'm sure you can use hard drives up to 10 or even 20 GB with no problems. Unfortunately only service partner or a buyer of HARD drive have precise information on this subject. They are specialized for the hardware upgrade and jut, they can give you a guarantee that the HARD drive is recognized properly by the BIOS.

  With CPU is the problem because most of them cannot be changed at all.

  Good bye

• Dell Dimension 4600 Multi Media controller driver for windows 7

  Anyone know where I can get the driver windows 7 for the multimedia audio controller in a Dell dimension 4600 or at least tell me what I could find because it seems that the sound card is working but there is no driver for the multimedia audio controller so I have no sound, I asked dell and they couldn't help me.  I'd appreciate any help I can get.

  Here are the drivers for Windows 7 (x 32) for his Creative Labs SB0200 card.

  docs.google.com/.../Edit

  (1) extract the files from the link above

  (2) go to the Device Manager

  (3) right click on the sound card with drivers and select update drivers missing

  (4) find the drivers in the folder named "Creative SB Live! Series (WDM).

  (5) given that these were built for XP or 2000, you must ignore the warning messages.

  (6) TADAA!

  One problem is that I can't find the driver for the MIDI port or whatever.

  Not a problem because I don't need it and no other bad noticeable.

  Private message me if you need help.
