Updating BIOS for Satellite Pro 4600

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to update the bios and I followed the instructions, but I don't know what the problem is.

1 - download the files
2 - unzip them filed in a non-bootable disk is.
3 - restart the computer with the disk in.
4 - press f12 during startup.
5 - nothing happened, the system asks me remove the disk, but nothing is updated.

Thanks for your help.

Hello

I found this statement to update the Toshiba BIOS for this series of portable:
1 extract the zip file containing the BIOS upgrade to a formatted floppy disk (please see note below regarding the type of disk to use).
2. make sure that the laptop is plugged into the sector.
3. turn off the laptop.
4. turn on the laptop with the F12 key. Press and hold until a short beep can be heard.
5. the message "ready for the update of the BIOS. Place the BIOS update floppy in the drive and press any key when you are ready to move forward"will appear.
6. place the floppy disk containing the BIOS upgrade in the floppy drive and press a key. FDD access will begin.
7. When prompted by the message: "Please push the RESET switch (or turn the AC OFF power off / WE) to restart" remove the disk and press the RESET switch (if available) or turn the system off and turn it on again to restart the laptop.

But note; Update the BIOS is always risky! If your laptop works ok, then update the BIOS is not really necessary!

Greetings

    It s really strange?  :|
    I checked the BIOS for Satellite U200 and Satellite Pro U200 download section, but I put t found any BIOS download at this time.

    A few years ago the authorized service provider has installed an older version of the BIOS on my Tecra friends unit.

    The other possibility is to wait for a newer version of the BIOS.

  • Problems after update BIOS on Satellite Pro 4600

    There is a problem with the computer toshiba laptop. its the fact do not install any windows OS after the Installer starts running xp there is an error message that says that the drivers of setupdd.sys could not be loaded (error code 14)

    I tried with different CDs with the same error, so I tried the procedure of the ghost image, but all in vain after reboot it is with an error that requires a kernel dll could not be found that I even used a cool ghost image but the same error.

    In fact, I upgraded the bios to a worm recent 2.60 it was beautiful, he started twice and has been used for several hours. the update was suuccesful up and running. It all started when we placed a kingston flash drive in the USB after it was working very well we copied a simple document on drive d, nothing else, it worked for half an hour. After I stopped, and then it was late at night when I started the system fine.i was listening to a song after that, he displayed the error messge system32 driver pci.sys damaged or missed.

    Then I tried everything I knew in windows xp to boot with xp cd and... etc I also formatted the hard drive to try to win98 installation gave an error also, external error to msdos, I think it's the update of the bios that is problem because windows 2000 Professional installation gave a very specific error. BIOS not fully ACPI compatible after pressing F7 in the installer of windows xp the feature ACPI went silent and requested installation good, but during the formatting the drive but it stopped with an error that the disc hard cannot be formatted.

  • 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 :)...).

    /Wade

    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

    See you soon

  • Drivers for Satellite Pro 4600

    Hi all

    I just reinstalled the operating system on a 4600, but I have no driver disk. I checked this site (for the last week and a half) and a lot of research on google, but can't find an archive of drivers for this laptop more old.

    I went on the Canadian site that another person was carried out, and although they have the 4600, the reference numbers are not matching.

    Part for my mobile number is PS460U-06QVX8.

    Once done, I will also consider pilots for a Satellite 2180CDT. If all goes well, the two drivers are in the same place.

    Thank you.

  • WLAN for Satellite Pro 4600

    Hello

    I installed the recovery disk (Windows 2000) for my Satellite Pro 4600 but WIFI could not be started.
    The software "Toshiba Wireless LAN Client Manager" says that there is no wireless network card-driver.
    I do not see a "Toshiba Wireless LAN Mini PCI Card", only a "Intel (r) PRO/100VE Network Connection" to the hardware Manager card. But there is also a "PCMCIA UNKNOWN_MANUFACTURER" - device. The WLAN driver does not fit.
    The Notebookhardware has not been changed then what is it?

    Please help me fix this problem.

    Thank you
    Stefan

    Hello

    If you use original recovery CD for the installation of the OS (SP4600 only) all hardware components must be installed correctly. Before we do that any external devices should be deleted (USB keys, printer or PCMCIA card). If the wireless card is displayed correctly under NICs without yellow exclamation, I guess that the wireless network card is installed correctly.

    Driver Toshiba designed for WLAN should be used for INTEL adapters. I really can't understand why you use the same driver for the PCMCIA unknown device.

    In my opinion, you should check the download from Toshiba site and try reinstalling the chipset utility. Please don t forget to disable the WLAN Windows option if you want to use the WLAN client.

    Good bye
