Satellite Pro 4600 - upgrade processor

Anyone know what that the processor spec max that I can fit a Satellite pro 4600.
Its a Cel700 earlier and I was hoping it would take a p3 1 GHz or equivalent
Anyone know what the exact specification of the processor there number bus speed model number of pines ect...
Would appreciate V.

Hello

As far as I know, this unit comes with 4 different CPUs:
Intel P3 100 Mhz FSB speed: 650, 700, 750, 800.
But I put t know if all this CPU runs on the same motherboard.
In addition, I did find all the documents concerning the assignment of pins.

Normally it s is not possible to change or upgrade the CPU on laptops, but in this case I might be possible. But I recommend to ask the service partner Toshiba for the second opinion.

Good bye

  • Satellite Pro 4600 card wirless

    Hi all, I'm new here so glad are soft. A friend asked me to find out what wireless card, it must be his daughter's laptop. She's a Satellite Pro 4600 with processor Pentium celeron. We have had a look and there is no card mounted on the machine, I found several on ebay, but not sure that is the command, if some of you, well informed members would be so likely to let me know which card must be mounted us can control an and mount it. The laptop is his daughter and she has used her and managed to get his laptop infected with multiple viruses and he thinks that if she got them on his own laptop, she might pay attention where she goes and what she downloads. The serial number of the machine is 11556104G and the number of model PS460E - 0002K - EN.

    I'm sure some of you nice people here will be able to help. I've read many threads and posts here, but couldn't fine anything related to our problem. I do not know if it is possible to mount a wireless card to the laptop or not, hope we can as it will save him a load of pain. Thanks for any help that might be coming.

  • 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!

    Hello

    I have a SP4600 and because I love this machine, I want to give him the chance to stay with me - but unfortunately, it will only work by increasing its performance...

    Is anyone here has made some experiences in upgrading a SP4600 more than 512 MB of RAM?
    I know that this machine uses PC100 SD - RAM that is available up to 256 MB.
    But someone has tried successfully to put in PC133 memory? And if so, to were the limit?

    And more: what about the upgrade of the rest, for example, the CPU or the whole motherboard?
    Currently, his heart beats with 700 Mhz (Celeron). Would it be as easy as just another graft?
    Or would it be easier to exchange the whole motherboard?
    I've never done anything like this before and I'm not sure how the rest of the system can react on these interventions, in particular because the we-board-video and sound on board...

    I would be delighted if someone could give me some positive feedback on these issues...

    Hello

    You can only use the memory 100 Mhz modules because the FSB is limited to 100 MHz.
    If you use 133 Mhz modules, they will work only at 100 Mhz.

    You can upgrade the satellite Pro 4600 until 512 MB (2x256MB)

  • Satellite Pro 4600: how upgrade to Windows XP?

    Hello
    Someone gave me an old Satellite Pro 4600 which works very well with Windows Millennium, but this person lost the Toshiba CD with drivers and utilities. I can't find anything about Toshiba hard disk.
    Is it possible to upgrade to WIndows XP? I have the Windows XP Pro CD, but nothing for the drivers of Toshiba.

    Of course you can improve it to Windows XP Home edition.

    I checked the download page of Toshiba under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com and it has listed many drivers of Windows XP Home edition.

  • Satellite Pro 4600: HDD upgrade question

    Hello.

    I decided to upgrade my Satellite Pro 4600 a 20 GB hard drive to a 60 gig.
    Only, I get a blank screen.
    When I go back my 20 original concert, it works well.
    Y at - it a special procedure for the Assembly of the larger disks?

    The BIOS recognizes the HARD drive correctly?

    Perhaps the size of the HARD drive is too big and so you have a few problems with the laptop.

    The fact is that not all HARD drive sizes are supported and the BIOS recognizes all drives, if the size is too large. Therefore, you should try a smaller HARD drive

  • PC133 is suitable for Satellite Pro 4600 memory upgrade?

    Hi all

    I'm looking for an extra 256 MB memory module for my Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600. The specs say one module of memory PC100 is necessary, but I was wondering if the PC133 modules would work as well. If so, are there problems with the mixture of the modules (PC100 and PC133)?

    Thank you for your attention.

    According to the information on the site of very useful memory module, it should be possible to use the PC133 144 pin SODIMM modules.

    I found this info on this site:
    http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=5778&ft=m&St=3

    In addition I don't recommend mixing the different modules. To my knowledge the lower speed module will decrease the performance of the memory. The two modules will work with the operation of the lower module.

  • Satellite Pro 4600 - CPU overheating graphics card?

    16 days ago my tosh Satellite Pro 4600 has lost the ability to maintain 25 fps in a game online - IE. Diablo 2.
    He now plays to an average of 4 frames per second and ping gets up to more than 4,000... Needless to say that now, unplayable...

    I reinstalled the game... installed new XP and game on the D drive...
    Same thing... a program called SpeedswitchXP shows CPU use fluctuating 54 to 420, because the clocked processor slot general tab of my computer displays 422 now, not the 847 mhz it used to.

    Still, he surfed on the net and plays yahoo games of cards for example. at lightning speed, but not a rpg online... there work perfectly at 25 fps on average for 3 years... Irretrievably overheating / damaged CPU, graphics card?
    Anyone know? Another temp. program shown running at 64 c is worth a new motherboard?

    I can get one? Any ideas?

    Hello

    First of all, he should know that the processor and GPU performance are dynamically.
    This means that the speed and the performance changes if the temperature reaches a critical threshold.
    This could lead to performance degradation.

    In your case, the laptop is about 3 years old and I think that it s time to clean the fans to prevent the notebook from overheating.

    You can try to use the jet of professional compressed air to get rid of dust and debris.
    Such spays you can buy computer retailer.

  • 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 - how to extend RAM memory

    I want to increase the RAM in my old Satellite Pro 4600.

    -Someone could advise me which of the (actually existing) types of RAM cards are suitable?
    -The laptop has a maximum memory limit, or I can go up to 1 GB (for example)?

    Thank you.

    Of course, there are some limitations to upgrade!
    You can upgrade the memory on this laptop to max 512 MB (2 x256MB)!

    You can use PC133 144 pin SODIMM as mentioned modules [here: | http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=28447&ft=m&st=3]

    Memory locations must be placed at the bottom of the unit.

    -Turn the computer
    -remove the screws which fix the plug memory module cover
    -slide you finger under the hood a lift it off.
    -mount the fittings of modules in connectors of computers at a 45 degree angle, then press the modules carefully to ensure a good contact
    -push the module down so it lies flat. Locks on each side will engage in the place to fix the module.

    All that... easy s ;)

  • Restrict HD for Satellite Pro 4600?

    Greetings!
    I thought of upgrading my Satellite Pro 4600 (PIII 800 MHz, 20 GB, 386 MB RAM) with a larger HD.

    My question is: what are the limits of this upgrade? Can I put in we'll say a 60 GB HDD? 80 GB? or is the satellite Pro 4600 limited to 20 or 40 GB?

    I am running Win XP, bios and other updates specific to the Toshiba computer are up-to-date.

    BTW: can I choose freely amongst external hard drive? Are there any size limits for these storage devices?

    (The satellite Pro 4600 is a robust small snowman isn't?) I pulled a joke with a colleague: "Hey, I got an apartment yesterday when driving in the countryside. The road was all mud and I had to use my Toshiba under the jack! ("He thought me :)...).

    Hey,.

    Toshiba has a HDD 40 gig for the model, but I'm not really sure if you can upgrade the model 60 or 80 GB

  • 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,.

    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
