3D games on Portege 7010CT

Hi I have a toshiba portege 7010CT with a neomagic magicmedia 256 BC I bought a 3d game Fa 18 Hornet (1997 game). When I start a mission I see compressed game window. I mean the width of the window of the game after the start of game is about 1/5 of the entire screen, while the height is ok. I see only gray colors and the game works (the plane moves if I click on the buttons).

Tried to change the size of the screen but nothing changes. I have updated directx update. Last thing, I downloaded an upgrade on toshiba.com and now I see black screen. I think it's a disk problem. The game can support also Opengl.

Help, please!

Hello

you wrote that you updated the driver from www.toshiba.com.
This is the US site of Toshiba, and it may be that the drivers are not compatible to the European!

Go to the driver download section to the http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com and try to download and install again!

  • Portege 7010CT - no hard drive recognized

    Hi all

    I have a Portege 7010CT, I want to use to drive my modeltrain, because it has a RS-232 connection. The problem is however it doesnot recognize the hard drive more. I bought a new one that works fine in another laptop but when I put it in Portege said with the installation of Windows that no hard drive is detected.

    Looking in the Bios, it also says that no hard drive is configured. I can't however in the Bios to change this. East - auto detection? What can I do to make the Portege recognize the hard drive? Thanks for help.

    Greetings Willem

    Hey, Willem.

    As far as I know this old notebook used hard drives with IDE interface. Normally, on all hard drives with this interface, you have a rider where you can switch between Master, Slave and Cable Select.

    I recommend you to check this. Set the switch to Master and try again.

  • Portege 7010CT: max capacity HARD disk support + CPU

    Hello
    Since I am a student I can't afford a new laptop (unfortunately) so I have to use my old 7010... That's why I think a small update... a bigger HARD drive (used)... But I cannot find anywhere the maximum size HARD drive for the 7010 - everyone knows, or experience with the largest drives that small 4.3?

    Also - is it possible to change the CPU with a faster mobile P2?

    Any help would be GREAT

    Hello

    I put really t exactly know the limit of the capacity of the HARD drive used on Portege 7010but, I'm sure you can use hard drives up to 10 or even 20 GB with no problems. Unfortunately only service partner or a buyer of HARD drive have precise information on this subject. They are specialized for the hardware upgrade and jut, they can give you a guarantee that the HARD drive is recognized properly by the BIOS.

    With CPU is the problem because most of them cannot be changed at all.

    Good bye

  • Portege 7010CT shows Toshiba logo then the screen goes black

  • Portege A100 - need new driver for graphics card to play games

    I own a Portege A100 and I need to update the graphics controller to play games.

    My problem is I went to the Download Center and the latest driver is currently installed in my notebook.
    I got this game running before but had my cell reprogrammed and don't remember how to operate.

    Help, please!

    Hmmmm... to be honest Portege is not portable for the games. Maybe for playing chess, but for some graphics intensive games is certainly bad laptop.

    Anyway, the question is what you want to do.
    Do you want to play some games or simply to grow old (already working) game to run again? Or maybe the two options?

  • Portege M500: Game "Sims 3" disc authentication error is displayed

    Hello

    I have a laptop Portege M500, which meets all the conditions for the new Sims 3 game.

    I was able to install the game without a problem, but when I try to play a 'disc authentication error' message appears.

    It seems that there is a problem with this game on Toshiba laptops, especially those with Mat * one material.

    My laptop has a CARPET * a DVD-RAM UJ-842.

    Please can someone help?

    Hello

    I doubt that there is something wrong with s for laptop hardware.
    I goggled for the message: authentication failure drive and in most cases, the error appears in the Sims 3 game.

    You use an original Sims 3 game? Or it s just a copy?

    I read a few details on the various pages and looks like the error appears with a pirate copy of movies or games...

  • Port of modem 7010CT Portege?

    The 7010 ct built in modem?
    If Yes, where is the interface.
    If this isn't the case, I guess I have to buy one and it fit in slot 0 or 1 on the left side. Assume that they are all compatible?
    Thank you

    Hello

    I found the information that your device has no internal modem. You're right about option PCMCIA. I put t think that there should be no problem using the PCMCIA.

    Good luck!

    Hello

    You can download the audio driver from the Web to Realtek site, or you could choose the page of the Australian driver Toshiba driver.

  • Portege A600 Webcam software crashes when changing the settings with the sound muted

    I have a problem with XP Toshiba factory build for Portege A600 and Portege R600.
    If you try to change the sound properties of the Webcam using the Camera Assistant Software with the sound muted, the camera wizard app will hang & Windows fails to shut down or even stop. The only way to stop is pressed the power button until the machine stops.

    So far, the only solution I can come to is to increase the volume to zero rather than using the mute box. The problem is if you forget and mute rather than turning down and then try to change the sound properties, its "game over." In addition, it is not really satisfactory because politics is to keep the machines muted until the sound is required.

    This does not happen with the Vista Build, build it only XP.

    My guess is that this will not happen on any machine using the Chicony Webcam & software with the Realtek HD audio but I have not tried on machines enough yet to be sure. So far, I've recreated on two A600s and a R600. The machines are not defective and you can create the problem, "straight out of the box. Just do the following:
    (1) use the provided Toshiba product recovery DVD for restore factory Toshiba Windows XP SP2 version
    (2) once you have done the whole stuff, mute
    (3) open the Camera Assistant Software application & to select Properties
    4) click the audio settings tab

    That of all, suspended. The Camera Assistant Software version is 1.7.209.0807L which seems to be the last being available for download on the websites of Toshiba.

    Someone has encountered this or have any suggestions?

    Hello

    I n t have a Portege but U400 with pre-installed and integrated webcam Win XP.
    I installed a clean Win XP and then upgraded the XP to the last State and installed all the drivers available from the Toshiba page and possible.

    I followed the steps in your message and I have to say that I didn t notice strange questions, software webcam still works correctly

    I put t know what could be the problem, but I recommend that you check the audio driver to update maybe you can use the Realtek page
    Also, check if the BIOS has been updated to the current state and if your Windows XP is up to date.

    My trusty M100 has developed a serious boot problem. It will not run games just the bios the second (on/standby) LED flashes orange and throw the fan. The RAM and CMOS battery tested OK (of a 2nd machine). By pressing ESC, F1 or F12 just gives a beep. No way to access the Bios Setup. All thoughts

    Hey,.

    Nice work you have tested other RAM modules in your laptop Portege because that would be my first suggestion other testing modules RAM :)

    In my opinion it s a serious as the motherboard or the CPU but without diagnosis hardware malfunction special tools it of not possible to say more on this subject in particular on this virtual path. If you need to contact an authorized service provider and ask for help. The guys have good diagnostic tools and can help you get rid of this.

    We bought 2 of these porteges. Previously, we used older models.

    With the Z30 - A L19 we can't sync via iTunes iPhone6 more, message "can not correct' identify the iPhone.
    With the two different iPhone and Z30 6!

    They went to the Service, Windows 7 has been installed completely new and in addion iTues only, nothing else.
    Same problem both of the porteges. With the help of these iPhones on our former Z930 works without any problem.
    Also as a test on another PC game.

    So it seems that the poblem is jst with iTunes (12.2.1), iPhone 6 and this special seres portege Z30 - has L19.

    Can someone help or if you have an idea?

    • go to your control panel
    • then Device Manager
    • Expand "portable devices".
    • You should see the generic 'apple iPhone '.
    • Right-click on this device
    • Click on update driver software

  • Portege R700 - upgrade Windows 7 32-bit to 64-bit and memory question

    I recently bought Portge R700 and am disappointed by the memory. I have a license of Windows 7 64-bit edition: what problems can arise if I update? Once installed, I can then use 8 MB of RAM.

    Moreover, I found the reagrding misleading Web site the option of using the 8 MB of RAM with the32-bit OS. I have 4Mb installed, years to see that only 2.86 MB is usable.

    I get "out of memory" messages and would like to know how to allocate more memory to live for video.

    Tom's right. If you want to use the 64-bit operating system, you must do clean install operating system. All drivers and tools specific to Toshiba and utilities must be installed Additionally one by one.
    If you need assistance with installing Win7 let us know.

    I put t know for what purposes do you use your laptop and what applications are important for your daily work, but, in general, I don t think you will have problems using 64 bit OS. Please keep in mind that all additional software is 64-bit capable and everything will be OK.

    As far as I know laptop user doesn't have the influence of the use of video memory and it runs automatically. It is unclear to me that you can change these settings and set how much RAM can be used for video operations.

    Anyway, Portege R700 is nice for laptop with sufficient power for daily use and also for use with standard applications. I don t think you ve bought this laptop for games.

  • Re: Question about the CD/DVD player for Portege M400

    I have a Portege M100 - and the CD-ROM drive does not work.

    Whenever I put a disc in I can just hear the motor turn the disc, but the computer is not picking up the drive. Device Manager picks up flawless.

    It doesn't seem to be any firmware for this sorting (or am I wrong).

    I've seen a DVD player for a M400 on ebay and I was wondering if that would take on my M100.

    Before buying it, I was wondering if anyone knew if it would be compatible. It seems to be OK size wise, but I was wondering if my Portege M100 XP would be able to use it.

    The description for the drive I want to put in the M100 is below:

    Thank you very much for your time. :)

  • Can I change the video card in the Portege M700?

    I recently received a Portege M700 as a gift and I didn't really like the Intel supplied with the laptop video card. If I want to change the video card to a more adapted to more modern games. Something like an nVidia or ATi video card. I don't think it's possible, but if this is the case, could someone answer?

    Thanks in advance.

    > On the other hand, it is possible to change the whole motherboard, and if it is possible, it would cost a lot?
    The replacement of the motherboard is possible, but it can be replaced with the same card published by Toshiba for this series of laptop.
    In addition, the replacement of the motherboard is a costly business because the mobo is one of the expensive laptop parts

  • Windows on Portege Z930 performance rating

    Well, I did a fresh install of Windows 7 and installed (hopely) all the best drivers. I still I'm not really happy on my system: it takes a bullet, but I really think that it is extremely slow, or at least much slower than I expected.
    I have very slow browsing with all web browsers experience: same gmail is slower than my previous laptop for 4 years.
    Could someone tell me if Windows rank values are comparable to theirs?

    CPU: 7.1
    RAM: 7.5
    GPU: 4.8
    Game: 5.6
    Disk: 7.9

    Just to better understand:
    Have you installed a clean version of the OS? If so, why? Is there a problem with the original OS?
    >... it should be a ball
    For operations base perhaps, but it depends on your operating system configuration, process background, parameters, additional applications that you use and so on.

    Optimization of the OS is not so simple but can help increase the performance of laptop s.
    Unfortunately I n t have this expensive laptop Portege but in the past I ve made some experiments with the extremely slow laptop models and I can say with certainty that the right OS configuration can help a lot.
