• Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100; battery (probably) problem

  About a year ago and a half year I bought the Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100. Every thing worked perfect up what a month ago, and then my adapter not workt more. With a multimeter I discovered it was broken, so I bought a new (from you guys)

  But 2 weeks later a new was also broken. Then I used my father's map (it has the same specifications) which merged in 1 week.

  What is going on? Where is the problem. I think it's my battery.

  Hello

  It seems that your adapter is damaged by the oscillation of voltage.

  I can't image the laptop that has the same voltage as the AC damaged HQ with a swing of voltage!

  IF you wish, you can contact a Toshiba Service partner. They can check the power supply, I have the laptop and HQ.

Press any key when ready... "I have tried with the CD bootable certainly many, but nothing happens. I tried with another work MoBo but that's it.

• Satellite Pro 4600 battery flashing light

  The amber battery light flashes constantly and the battery won't charge or power out of the battery. I have replaced the battery, but still have the same problem. Y at - it a domestic or similar power Board which may be defective. Any help is appreciated!

  Hello

  There must be a hardware, perhaps with the electronic power supply problem.
  In this case, the motherboard should be replaced.
  But you should contact Toshiba service partner in your country. It can start some diagnostic tests and then it can give you a detail answer what's exactly wrong.

• 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

  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.

• Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 problems

  Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 is usually a large equipment once it works! I have bought in December 2001 + additional 2 year warranty. Used every day for a business purpose - mainly on a desk anchored to the Port Replicator or inside-out of the office with WiFi.

  Almost after a year I bought it - one of the memory locations died on the motherboard! A machine still worked OK - only on a slot with installed memory capacity! So the 256 MB of memory and motherboard have been replaced by September 2002.

  Then the hard drive was noise - has been replaced as a guarantee somewhere in October 2004. So I thought that it is her - I have now a few years without problem again!

  Yes - all of a sudden a few days ago, I closed the lid for a coffee brake and after that the machine woke up to a strange sleep - the screen flickered and a machine was muzzy! Like the previous night failures that occurred before that I thought that this restart will solve the problem! It s woke up without the support of the voice! And after that I discovered that the WiFi card is always on - no matter if you switch the button on or off! If the service said that probably the motherboard has not once again!

  So, which brand and model to buy then?

  same thing with my nine M30 I bought last summer. I can't be able to turn off the WiFi keyboard functionality. the light is still on too.

• Problems installing Satellite Pro 4600 wireless network card

  I have a similar problem. The text of presentation for the Satellite Pro 4600 says 'model of communication center Mobile with wireless built-in on all Intel® Pentium® III, LAN module card integrated 10/100 Ethernet NETWORK and international integrated V.90 data/fax modem'.

• Problems connecting to a Satellite Pro 4600 for network wireless home

  Hello
  My computer has a processor Athlon 64 x 2 4200 + and 2 GB of RAM, with XP2 Pro. I have a Linksys WRT54GS broadband router and connected with Virgin Media.

  My daughter gave me an old laptop a Satellite Pro 4600 with a 747 MHz Celeron processor, 384 MB of RAM and XP2 Pro has an Intel Pro/100 VE Network adapter. I set up a Linksys Wireless - G Notebook Adapter with SRX (model No. WPC45GX), so that I could use around the House. However when I try to connect to the home network, although he "finds" a list of networks, I am unable to connect and get an error message - "Windows cannot connect to the selected network (my home network). The network can be is no longer in range. Please refresh the list of available
  networks and try again. »

  I tried to connect with laptop computer in the same room as the router, but get the same message. In the Manager of peripheral devices, network cards, the two are shown and both work properly, but in the taskbar there is a red cross shown on the two icons, they say that a network cable is unplugged, but I don't have a cable network.
  The other tells me that the wireless is not connected.

  I presume that the adapter works as it can 'see' wireless networks, I used Lynksys support to verify that all router and adapter settings are correct.
  My wife has a new laptop and is able to connect to the home network with no problems.

  Please can someone offer advice or assistance.

  for some reason, you need to turn off your wired connection (cable) and use the client of the PCMCIA wireless network card. Maybe just the problem that your system can not separate the two network connections and gets an error it s. You should also visit the site Web of Linksys and download the latest driver and the customer for the card, so you can make sure that the software is up to date.

  Another good idea would be to visit www.microsoft.com and the support center for any 'knowledge base documents' which could probably solve the problem.
  As your machine is really old and no one is using PCMCIA cards more, you may wait a long time for an answer in this forum. Maybe you should check the site from linksys for a support section. Maybe they could help you...

• Satellite Pro 4600 and WiFi configuration problem

  Got a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600, under WXP SP3. It s a P3 900 mhz with 256 RAM and it s a great laptop, but peut t seem to understand the Wi - Fi.
  It captures my router ok sky open a Wi - Fi connection, but it s the config, when I put the WEP key it says it is not compatible with WEP, WPA only s.

  I put the ssid for the router ok but it won t accept the key/passphrase in there it says s not long enough.
  Could someone point me in the direction of a guide of idiots for this configuration?
  Wi - Fi is built-in and it s a Toshiba mini PCI
  Thank you

  Hello

  For me the case sounds very clear;
  You can't put the encryption key just because the WEP key is not compatible / supported.

  I think you should use encryption that is supported by both parties; router and wireless network card

  It sounds like a motherboard problem

• 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?

• Satellite Pro 4600: WinXP - no hardware acceleration for dvd?

  I have a satellite pro 4600 pentium 3 800 with 128 MB of ram and graphics Trident CyberBlade XP card. The device is perfectly able to reproduce DVDs with the software alone by using PowerDVD 6. However due to the fact that my battery is almost dead, I would be able to play the DVD the most optimized battery settings.

  Setting of the unit (approximately 350 mhz) low processor should be able to play DVDs if backed up by hardware acceleration, since cyberblade claims to be a card directX 7 with motion compensation and idct. However 4 PowerDVD 6 PowerDVD and windvd 7 do not recognize hardware acceleration under windows XP.

  In the past, I had a similar problem with a laptop computer with a graphics card than cyberblade i7. I was then able to activate hardware acceleration using just powerdvd 4 and windows 98, but I don't want to resort to that.

  Can someone help me? Do you know any software reading with the support of cyberblade XP Windows? Do I need any other drivers? I have the drivers on the toshiba site, and they date back to 2001.

  Hello

  Unfortunately, I n t have any experience in hardware acceleration of the cyberblade card but mobile graphics cards are not similar with Office PC cards.
  As far as I know the unit has a support of the Trident Cyber BLADE XP video controller 16 MB VRAM external video and DVD material.
  However, you will find the Toshiba drivers on the Toshiba site but if you need one on so I would say to ask the support of Trident.
  But if you use no drivers Toshiba you can do at your own risk!

• Satellite Pro 4600 won't start

  I have a Satellite Pro 4600 w / Win2000, 15 GB HD, CD-ROM, P3 800 Mhz, 128 MB of RAM. It will not start. I can plug in the power cable and the lights show the battery is loaded or loads, the power is connected. When I press the button I get no sound from the laptop (no fans or HARD drive) and there is nothing from the HARD disk (no light whatever it may be), but the "On" indicator light turns green even if nothing else happens. Someone at - it an idea what could be wrong with that, and if/how I could fix it?

  Thank you, Adrian

  Hi Adrien,.

  As a first step to diagnose your problem, I suggest you to unplug the unit from AC power and also remove the battery completely. Reconnect AC power and try to turn on the unit. If it works then stop it and reinstall the battery and try to turn on the unit again.

  If the procedure above does not solve your problem, then it is likely that there is a problem with the internal components of your laptop in which case you will need to be serviced by an authorized Service partner.

  Kind regards
