• 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!

• Cannot read DVD on Satellite Pro 4600 movies

  Hello

  After a clean install of Win2K on Satellite Pro 4600 I am unable to play any DVD movie. I am able to access the data of the DVD discs. The error message is:

  "There is not Windows 2000 compatible compatible dvd decoder installed on this system."

  I was able to play DVDs when running Windows XP.

  I searched online and on these forums for an update of the software for my DVD player (model SD-C2402) but have been unable to find one. I should be grateful if you would be pointing in the right direction.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I have good experiences with VLC media player. Try to use it.
  Back to your problem. I think you need to MPEG2decoder. Googled around and look for any W2K codec pack. After installing it, I'm sure that everything will work properly and you will be able to watch DVD movies.

  As I wrote already test VLC media player. It's really good.

• New DVD drive not recognized on my Satellite Pro 4600

  Hi all

  I recently bought an engraver of DVD in NEC ND-6650 nine.
  This drive is NOT recognized by my Satellite Pro 4600 at all - neither Windows 2000 nor in the BIOS (v 2.60). BIOS updates higher than the 2.60 version are not provided.
  Does that mean I can forget about using the new writer in my old notebook?

  Thank you and best regards,

  Nils

  Hi Nils,

  I suspect that your new drive may be not be compatible with your laptop. Like all scanners to your new drive will be configured as slave or master (or CSEL possible), and this configuration should match your laptop.

  Usually your hard drive is configured as master on IDE channel 0 with optical drive is the slave on the same channel device. However, you may find that your optical drive is configured as master on the IDE 1 channel.

  Normally the setting is preconfigured by the manufacturer so you will need to check both the conficuration of your new drive and the configuration of your original drive to make sure they are the same.

  Kind regards

• I can build in the Satellite Pro 4600 DVD burner?

  Hiya

  Can anyone help with this? Has anyone equipped with a DVD burner (dvd - rw drive Toshiba sd-r6252)?
  Which models are compatible? I'm good fight opening and Exchange.
  Compatibility just in fact know.
  Thank you

  Hello

  I put t found any information if this drive is compatible with the Satellite Pro 4600, but you should be careful to replace the drive.
  You should check the dimensions of the car. Very important is the drive (master, slave, csel) settings because it is not possible to change this settings as on the usual desktop drive.
  I'm not sure about the settings on the Satellite Pro 4600 but the ASP Toshiba should know that.
  You can also order the caught player supported by the Toshiba service partner in your country.

• Playing DVDs on Satellite Pro 4600

  Hi - I installed a dvd player for my satellite pro 4600. When I play a dvd movie on my laptop it seems to be very out of sync and "stuttering". can anyone offer advice to help me read DVDs without problem.

  Hi Tommy

  Check please, processes running in the background. If there are some not necessarily ongoing process, it may be responsible for the lower speed of the processor. It may be a virus scan application that analyzes the HARD drive permanently and can be the reason of "stutter" picture on your screen.

• 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.

• Satellite Pro 4600, memory upgrade

  I have twice had problems trying to upgrade memory to my Satellite Pro 4600, so I decided to ask directly if Kingston KTC-SO133/256 MB is compatible with this machine?

  It's the SODIMM I'm about to try next, but I have to pay for it first.

  Problems were that the SODIMM modules is not compatible with the wonderful piece of memory or it won't work at all with Toshiba.

  Is there an availave list what type of bars of memory are compatible?

  Sorry, I can tell you that I use the Original from Toshiba 'PA3069U - 1 M 25' memory (its a KIT of MEMORY of 256 MB)

  works great!

• 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!

  Good luck

• Satellite Pro 4600 battery recognition problem

  Hi all

  I have a strange problem with my Satellite pro 4600 (SP460E-03371-G3) laptop. I have the battery with the AC adapter unplugged, but the battery indicator turns on (no green, not orange). And the laptop does not start when I push the power button. It's like when the battery is discharged. When I plug in the power adapter, AC power light turns green, Notepad starts OK. And cams CIHI surprise: when I plug the AC everything works perfectly on battery power, but still no sign of the green or orange battery indicator. If I check the power state in Windows XP, the system indicates that the laptop works on current alternative, but the AC is disconnected. Why is this?

  Thank you
  Akos Monostori

  Hello Ákos

  I'm sure that there are defects of electronic power to your laptop. As you can see electronic is confused and the battery is not recognized correctly.

  In my opinion, you should contact the Service of your country partner and ask them what is the best way to solve this problem.

• Satellite Pro 4600 Wireless?

  Hi, I bought a Satellite Pro 4600 second hand last year and have been happily using it to connect to my network of the University via the ethernet cable. However, I have recently bought a new desktop PC and found a buyer interested in my laptop computer for home use on a wireless network. How will I know if he can use my laptop to connect to a wireless home network? It has a sticker on the saying

  PA3070U-1MPC
  ... content radio MPC13A-20 device
  and then a load of other codes and down 'WiFi', "The Standard for Wireless Fidelity".

  However when I go into Device Manager is no wireless network card, only the standard ethernet card I used. Yet PA3070U-1MPC is the code for a Wireless LAN Mini PCI card?

  My laptop model number is PS460E - 020S 7 - EN

  There->

  PIII700/128 / 10G / 14 t/C/LM/W (don't ask me what all of this means that!)

  If there is no wireless card in my laptop, one of them would be compatible?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  If the wireless card is there, which should be listed in the device under network adapters Manager.

• Satellite Pro 4600 WiFi not detected

  Hello
  As I am new to using the WiFi, can someone help me please?

  Our office has a Wifi environment. Passed on the WiFi system on the left side of the computer.
  From what I hear the computer should then register automatically. Nothing happens. Should I change all the settings in my computer? In Windows 2000 Help.

  Like the WiFi system should also be automatically used when you walk into some of the points of sale restore quick/coffee I wonder where it hurts.
  Looking forward to your advice.
  Thanks / Peter

  Hello

  as a first step, you should check if your Satellite Pro 4600 has a built in Wifi card. Here, you have to look in the device manager - network and search for a Wifi card because some of the 4600 PS were only sold with a praparation of Wifi!

  There you can also see if any problems with the place a hard ware.

  Then check your network settings for the Wifi card. Go to your network administrator and ask your network settings.

• 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?
