Satellite Pro 480CDT: Watch 133 MHz instead of 233 MHz CPU

I have an old laptop 480CDT that should have a speed of 233 MHz processor. However when I ran a test on it, it measures only 116 MHz.

It runs very, very slowly, so I was wondering if there was someone who had this problem or knows if there is what I can do to try to resolve this.

Hello

Well, this unit is about 8 years.
As far as I know the energy saver is preinstalled on new computers laptop Toshiba.
This utility controls the cooling module and the CPU processing speed.
I don't know if it could be a problem on your laptop, but maybe the cooling module cannot m works specific performance and the energy saver has decreased the speed of the cpu.

Check the cooling fans and try to clean it. In addition, you should check the settings of standby power.

  • Satellite Pro 480CDT does not start (even in BIOS)

    Hi all

    I just hand on a Toshiba Satellite Pro 480CDT

    I had to work with the original power supply (on an inverter plugged into my 12v cars I wasn't close to 240 v power outlet)

    It worked very well, it boots into Windows 98 and I played with a few programs (Media Player and defragmentation)

    I got it defragment for about 5 minutes, while charging via the car converter, however it froze and I had to hold the power button to restart.

    When I tried to next turn on the screen remains empty, the hard drive is not turn and there is only the power LED and battery LED that lights up.

    He let me press the function key that lights up the fn LED on top of the keyboard, but then after a few presses of lighting stops.

    I opened the case and concluded that there are two batteries of the bios, the look at where they are plugged into the main Board, there is green type of corosion on the pins, I removed the plugs (who might add when it is very difficult to remove because of the coros), I cleaned the plugs (male & female) with a pen of WD40 and plugged in I got a voltmeter on them and they demonstrate tension and also show higher voltage when the power supply for laptop is connected, then it means they are load or at least tension.

    After doing this I go up the laptop, but it still suffers from the same problem?

    Please what could someone help or give me a little advice? My next event is the power supply Board but wanted to get some ideals before hand.

    Thanks in advance.

    His pity to hear that your baby dead :(
    But if we move to a diagnosis of material, I doubt someone here might be able to point in the right direction if his motherboard problem, it would be really difficult to solve this problem without using special tools, circuit diagram of motherboard and of course experience

    I think you should check the modules memory vivid faulty ram could affect the laptop everything is just speculation

  • Satellite Pro 480cdt - installation of Win98 after Replacement HDD

    :| What a fight! I have a Satellite Pro 480cdt.
    It came with no disk working...

    I have now repackaged in floppy drive, and an external cdrom connected using an external enclosure.
    I bought a HDD refurbished for the machine, it arises in the caddy, and now the machine is equipped with discs.

    The HDD is empty, but I have a cdrom in windows 98, so put in the drive, the message "insert disk in the drive system, then press any key..." So I put the CD in and also to put a downloaded in the floppy drive boot disk.

    He is now asking me to remove all the drives and media and press any key!
    Magic! How to bypass it little or no budget! (I'm retired)

    I think it's done... It seems that the backup disks 98 to my last computer was faulty, so all this happens for an it expert to sort... And if it does not, it goes on the bonfire!

  • Satellite Pro 480CDT does not start with mounted HARD disk?

    Hello
    I have tried several disks in my Satellite Pro 480CDT, but none of them starts. The screen stays black and the power led blinks orange (long, short, short, short, short, long, short, short). If I drive the machine past the on-screen "In Touch With tomorrow, TOSHIBA. He sees Windows CD-ROM or a floppy disk. I tried with 6 hard drives all below to 6 GB and AFAIK the work. I tried with another 480CDT a 220CS and a 2140CDS. Surely all hard drives and computers laptops have the same flaw? What I need to update BIOS or something as none of the drives are original for the machines.
    Help, please!
    Thank you

    John.

    Hi John

    I'm afraid of nothing that you can do everything alone. When the electronic power supply detects a power problem, it sends the hex code. In this case you should contact the technicians. They can read this code and will know what the problem is here.

    Just FYI: I discovered this disc HARD original for this unit has the P000244000 part number. Maybe it will help you get another HARD drive for testing.

    Sorry I can't tell you more info on this good old classic.

  • Re: Satellite Pro L300D - 11O 800 MHz RAM installed, only to 667 MHz

    I recently bought a Satellite Pro L300D-11O, which has a single stick of 1 GB 800 MHz RAM installed. However this RAM work only at 667 MHz. I checked this in Linux and Windows Vista.

    The laptop is announced as to have 800 MHz RAM on this page:

    http://UK.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&BV_UseBVCook ie = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 1055796

    The manual of the user who wrote:

    "PC2-6400 memory module works as PC2-5300 speed the GL40 Express Chipset Express chipset/GL965"

    I don't know what chipset I have, and it would be surprised that this would be the case that the above Web site explicitly states RAM 800 MHz.

    Can someone tell me please?

    Hello!

    Now I'm a bit confused of Mr. I think you did search in the wrong user's manual because the Satellite L300D has no Intel chipset.
    On the Toshiba site, you can download the manual for Satellite L300D:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online downloads support & -online download user manual

    I think that your chipset only supports 667 MHz. normally the RAM always works on the highest speed that is supported by the chipset.
    Check the specifications with Everest or PC Wizard 2008.

  • Satellite Pro A120: Need to update the BIOS after upgrade CPU

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 and I need to update the bios of a change in cpu cause.
    The laptop works very well, but for some reason any with the new processor fan runs always full.

    A lot, I searched but found nothing.
    The model number is PSAC1E-0QL04CG3 of ideas where I can find the bios?

    THX in advance,
    John

    Hello

    First of all: update BIOS doesn t help you.
    Why do you think that BIOS update should help reduce the activity of fan?

    I guess that your new processor is faster. Right?
    So it offers more performance and this leads to higher heat dissipation... so finally the CPU must be cooled and this can be done only if the cooling module would turn faster you agree with me?

    By the way: the update of the BIOS is on the page of the Toshiba UE driver. Since the satellite Pro A120 is very old series, you will need to search for drivers in area Archive (Type of product-> Archive)

  • Satellite Pro 480cdt: how to replace the power supply and memory?

    I broke the tip of the power where it goes to the back of the computer. The two pins came away from the cable. What is the size of the plug round I am looking for as a replacement? Assume that there is a standard fitting of Toshiba.

    The right size to upgrade as the memory is 128 MB. He got 64 MB it's 2 x 32 MB. I guess we're soldered in, but I can remove the other 32 MB and put the 128.

    Are these modules memory square-shaped?
    Finally, a link to the service manual would be very helpful.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    It's really an old unit and it is not easy to find a lot of information. I found the info that this device can use 160MO max. Module of RAM compatible RAM are:
    16 MB PA2039U
    PA2040U 32 MB
    48 MB PA2041U
    128 MB PA2042U
    I don t really know where is placed expansion slot memory but check the underside first. Otherwise, that it may also be placed under the keyboard.

    Replacement of plug power is a bit complicated, and in this case I can't help you at all.

    In any case good luck with your oldie!

  • Satellite 2100CDS upgrade 400-500 MHz CPU

    Dear Toshiba passionate,

    I have a Satellite 2100CDS with an AMD K6-2/400 processor. I bought another authentic treatment to change with something more powerful. The cooling would be OK, but the machine starts with the K6-2/500. What should I do? Update the BIOS?

    Thank you in advance!

    David, Hungary

    Hello

    It is not no wonder that your portable fuel not.
    Have you checked if you new CPU is compatible or supported?

    2100 series was delivered and support only the AMD K6-2-P 400 MHz processor with 3D now! Technology
    I found some details on this CPU.
    The coprocessor math and 64 KB of cache memory are integrated into the processor and it s a 100 MHz bus clock.

    It seems that you use unsupported CPU! The point is that the replacement of the CPU is not easy and above all it s no is not possible or not recommended to replace the CPU on laptops.
    The notebooks are all just different as desktop computers

    Do not think that the BIOS update will help you...

    Run quietly and cool when they surf the web, type in Word and under the easy workload like that? It gets very loud and hot runs more demanding programs such as Photoshop CS3?

    Do you recommend this laptop? I tried searching the Internet for customers, but I couldn't find the model U400 - 23M. What are the advantages and disadvantages on this laptop?

    Hi mate

    I n t have the Satellite Pro U400 - 23M, but I m an owner of the Satellite U400-10N.
    I use it in my office all I love this little baby.

    You should know that the U400 has 13.3 display and it of smaller than the P100.
    So you will definitely notice a difference.

    One of my friends said that 13.3 would be too low for him, but for me it s best. I can take everywhere and sometimes I m work while traveling around the world

    So I m very satisfied.

    I ve installed Win XP on this U400 and it s functions perfectly!
    But you can install Vista 64 bit too. The Satellite Pro U400 - 23M uses the Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5870, that supports 64-bit

    But note; the U400 is not really a cellphone game hardcore.
    My U400 supports an Intel graphics chip and usually I only use it for office, graphic design (web) applications and web browsing.
