Resume the failed Satellite Pro 4600

Hello

I get a message "Press any key to resume failure continues" every time I powere to the top of my Satellite Pro 4600. It then remains on a white screen and I am unable to do anything. Someone at - it suggestions on how to solve this problem?

Thank you very much!

Hello

Check if the BIOS is set to RESUME (function that remember have been closed and continue on this same place).

To do this: when the TOSHIBA logo is shown be very quickly press the ESC key a short time.
You should get an error message and press F1 to enter BIOS. Search for Power-up mode (or something very similar). Set it to BOOT.

If it is already set to BOOT, or it does not help, try pressing the reset button when the screen is empty as you say. You should find it on the, I think that, left side of the machine. Look closely on the sides. You should find a small hole.

Good luck

Tom

  • Cannot change the contrast, brightness, etc. on Satellite Pro 4600. Help please.

    I can't control the contrast, brightness, Saturation etc... using the control panel of Trident in my Satellite Pro 4600. Could someone help me to activate these controls?
    Thanks in advance
    Andrea

    Hello Andrea,

    normally, you can change this settigs in the Panel, but to explain the way to change this would be nice to know what operating system you have installed.

    If you have the perinstalled Os, it might be that you have Win2000.

    Win2000:

    Go to the control panel - display - Advanced control and then you could choose between video, color or television.

    The Brightess could be changed to energy-saving, because the brightness depends on your setting of power.
    Battery high brightness mode could reduce your battery power!

  • Satellite Pro 4600: Win2k with SP4 - cooler run all the time

    Hello

    last week, I bought a used Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 PIII, 1 GHz, 512 GB of Ram, WIFI and DVD burner. Great machine so far.

    After that I changed the FAT32 file system to NTFS and reinstalled Win2K/SP4 cooler runs all the time.

    TaskManager says that "THOT_KEY.exe" uses up 99% of the CPU power. Disabling this service reduces the power of the processor and the cooler was quite, BUT didn't really helped - lots of keys does not work.

    I ran a few utilities to disinfect as Kaspersky, NOD32 etc. to ensure that Ia´ve not taken some malware.
    Should I try a bios update or change some settings?

    Any ideas?

    Thanks for help

    Hello

    AFAIK the THOT_KEY.exe belongs to the Toshiba Hotkey utility that controls the various key functions.
    If you disable this service, you will not be able to use the FN keys more.
    I m not 100% sure why this service uses 99% of CPU performance, but perhaps that it s not completely compatible with the W2K service packs. Where did you download this utility? I found it on the page of Toshiba Europe!

    In my opinion, you should try to reinstall the system again. This is probably the key!

  • Satellite Pro 4600 - what is the maximum size of HARD drive?

    My age Satellite Pro 4600 has a 20 GB HARD drive. These are now very difficult to obtain, does anyone know if superior capacy HDDs can be used and, if so, what is the maximum size of the HARD drive.

    (Despite his age that I always use the Satellite Pro for some jobs).

    Hello John

    Satellite Pro 4600 is old enough for laptop and it is not easy to find the exact info. The fact is that this laptop comes with 10 and 20 GB hard drives.
    My opinion is that you can use 30 or even 40 GB HDD. I think that 30 GB new HARD drive should be enough for your some jobs.

    What do you think?

  • Satellite Pro 4600 - very low picture on the screen

    Guys, I really need help.

    I picked up on old satellite pro 4600 eBay and have rebuilt the thing - everything works EXCEPT the screen - I get a very small image, even on the start screen.

    So far I have - changed the cable lcd - no effect. changed the Panel itself, no effect and inverter (4 times!).

    Any suggestions? Driver problem? Setting I missed somewhere? Motherboard problem?

    Hmmm. My first thought was the faulty FL inverter.
    Are you sure you used the right and compatible FL inverter? A connect it correctly?

    What about the keys FN + F6/F7? It allows to set the brightness to a higher level?

    Then maybe you should check for this possibility.

  • Satellite Pro 4600 calibrate the battery?

    Hello

    My Satellite Pro 4600 battery is pretty weird. I always completely load to 100%. But when I use my laptop and it reached 60-65%, it goes down to 3% of the battery. Now, I was wondering if there is a way to calibrate the battery, so he sees it as a battery of 100% full again? Anyone who can help me?

    Thanks in advance

    Hey,.

    Tips for the battery charge.

    Unplug the computer from the power adapter and turn it on. Let the computer battery power until the computer turns off, indicating that the battery is fully discharged.

    Remove the battery.

    Using a soft cloth, wipe the battery packs connectors and AC adapters.

    Reinsert the battery.

    Plug the power adapter from the computer and check the wall outlet, ensuring that the connection is firm.

    When the PC is off, let the battery charge until the icon or the battery light turns green.

    Disconnect the power adapter.

    Remove the battery.

    Wait 30 seconds and reinsert the battery.

    Reconnect the AC adapter.

    Let the battery recharge until the battery status light turns green or the icon appears at 100%.

    Now your battery must be charged completely. Unplug the computer from the wall outlet and turn on the PC. You should notice more autonomy.

    See you soon

  • Satellite Pro 4600: I want to upgarde the RAM

    I want to upgarde the RAM on my satellite pro 4600. It currently has 128 MB of RAM.
    Anyone know what kind of memory card should I buy and how to install it?
    Should what size I go?
    I've been in the PC World and they weren't much help.
    Any ideas / information gratefully received.
    See you soon,.
    Bob.

    Hi Bob,

    The following link will take you to a page containing all relevant information on memeory upgrades for your 4600 (including part numbers.

    http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=5778&ft=m&St=3

    I think that your device has two memory slots, and I assume that you currently have a home in use with 128 MB of RAM installed (the 4600 had 64 MB or 128 MB).

    RAM modules are available in sizes 64 MB, 128 MB and 256 MB.

    The maximum that you can install is 512 MB (i.e. 2 X 256 MB modules. The amount that you need will depend greatly on what applications run you as well as what operating system, but the usual recommendation is a minimum of 512 MB for windows XP (at least for the earlier OS).

    The RAM modules are normally accessed from the bottom of the unit. Normally, there is a cover with 2 or more screws. Check you manual for the exact location on your device.

    Kind regards

  • Record stereo sound on the Satellite Pro 4600

    Hello everyone and happy NYE!

    I am trying to record a stereo sound from an external source on my Satellite Pro 4600.
    I read in the manual of the only way to enter the stereo signal from other sources (e.g., external CD player) is through card Station IV as the laptop itself has only monaural audio input jack.
    Is it possible to record stereo sound from external source without having to invest in the Station IV card?
    Or if not, is there any software that can convert the stereo, mono signal?

    Thanks for any help on this matter.

    Matthew.

    Hello

    In my opinion you can do this only if you use an external device to the audio transfer stereo. In combination with the right software, you can save, for example, old records and put music in digital format.

  • Satellite Pro 4600 - unable to connect to the wireless network

    Hello, I have a problem with my Satellite pro 4600 model # Ps460C-04NVX
    The problem is with the PA3070U-1MPC wireless adapter
    I see my network in a wireless network with excellent signal, but it does not connect

    I have a fresh install of win xp sp3. I don't have original driver cd.

    Can someone help me please? Thank you

    Hello

    As Akuma suggested you should ensure that you are using the latest driver WLAN on Toshiba website for your laptop.
    I founded your model on Toshiba Canada website: http://support.toshiba.ca

    Your network configuration is not kwon to me, but you should check the TCP/IP settings. If you have DHCP do you get an IP address from the router? You can check this in the start menu > run > cmd > ipconfig/all

    If you use a 3rd party firewall, you must disable.

    Good bye

  • How to access the BIOS on Satellite Pro 4600 settings?

    Guys,

    I received a Satellite Pro 4600, unfortunately this laptop has 2 and a half proceeding on this issue. The first is MS2000, then XP then an incomplete installation of XP. When I start the laptop, it asks which OS I want to use. I have a legal copy of XP that I bought and I want to reformat the computer laptop and put on a new install of XP, the problem is how to enter the BIOS to change the settings to boot to a CD?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Steve

    Hello

    First of all you n t need to access the BIOS to boot from the CD.
    You can simply press the F12 key immediately after the laptop has been powered.
    It would show the available boot options.

    Alternatively, you can press the C button that would automatically allow the CD/DVD drive as the boot source.

    Try to remove the AC adapter and the battery and wait an hour. Connect the AC adapter and the battery. Now try again.

  • How to remove the Satellite Pro 4600 BIOS password?

    A friend of mine recently bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 (PS460E-03371-EN). Unfortuately the password of the BIOS was set before the purchase and would like to know how to reset it.
    The machine will not start now.
    Any help as to the location of the BIOS battery or work around this problem will be appreciated.

    Hello

    To remove the BIOS battery will not help. BIOS by removing on laptops is more complicated than on desktop computers. BIOS by removing the procedure depends on the laptop model and it is not the same on all models of laptops.

    A lot of people get the laptop with password and to provide an accurate description how do this in the public forum is not good idea.
    Have you tried to contact the person who sold this laptop and ask BIOS password?
