Can satellite L655-14F - I change the display driver?

all I want to know if I can 'Upgrade graphics card in my laptop.

Satellite L655-14F...... Hotel details

"Graphics card".

type: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 related HyperMemory technology
amount of memory: 1 024 MB dedicated VRAM (total available graphics memory using HyperMemory technology can be up to 2 267 MB with 3 GB and 32-bit operating system and 8 GB memory 4 083 MB with a 64 - bit OS system memory or system)
"type of memory: DDR3 video RAM (resp. RAM video and system memory combined)"

We are talking on cell phones and the No. Laptops have a very specific design and hardware upgrade is limited. Generally updated graphics card is not supported by Toshiba, so there is no sense of thinking about it.

Cooling system's biggest problem with laptops. Each laptop has the system of cooling optimized for certain physical infrastructure. Build in the cooling system should cool the hardware components and protect them from overheating and damage.

I will now use the same word as badhat: theoretically if you upgrade graphics card, you will have more powerful piece of hardware that produces more heat than the original. More heat means more likely to damage the material.

You can upgrade level RAM or HARD drive, but everything else is meaningless. That s in my opinion.

Why don't l t buy you more powerful laptop? Something like Satellite A660, P750 or Qosmio?

  • Satellite L555-S7008 - cannot install the display driver Windows 7

    Hi guys

    I'm confused now
    I have a Satellite L555-S7008, I installed a Windows 7 ultimate edition, but unfortunately the display driver did not work. Now I have pain in my eys because of the resolution. What should I do to make it work?

    Hardware found "Mobile Intel (r) 4 Series Express Chipset Family", but it does not support this type of material

    (2) what driver should I I installed to the PCI network communication controller?

    Hi ROCO_1,

    I had a similar problem with the display driver I t could not install it. I put t know why it happened, but the solution is that you need to install the display driver through the Device Manager and not from the configuration file

    So go into Device Manager and right-click on the graphics card and select put to update driver. Do not choose the Advanced installation where you can choose the driver directory yourself. Select the files that you have unpacked the file downloaded and that s all.

    About the communication network PCI controller, it could be both: WLAN or LAN card. So, make sure that the two drivers are installed.

    Hello

    As far as I know that it is no longer possible.
    If you have selected the language, you will need to use the language that was chosen originally.

    I not quite sure of this workaround, but check if this m:
    -create a recovery disk (using the software creator on the laptop recovery disk)
    -use the recovery disk to reinstall new OS
    -Check if it would be possible to change the language.

    If this is not the case, do I have to buy a new cd englsih for the same thing or can I get assistance from toshiba for the french to English

    Salim

    It is not possible to change the language on an already preinstalled OS. What you need is new DVD installations on the English language. You'll have to buy one. Toshiba has nothing to do with it.

    The software is delivered on the hardware and you have paid for a license only.

  • Satellite A100-590 - cannot install the display driver for Win7

    I installed Win7 on my Satellite A100-590 (PSAA9E-03Z00QGR) today. Everything works fine except for the display drivers.
    I downloaded the drivers win7/32 bit here: [here | http://at.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=AT&BV_UseBVCook = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 115970 ie] but when I try to install, extract the files and then nothing happens.

    Does anyone else have this problem or even better a solution? all other drivers will work on this laptop?

    Edit: the graphics card is an ATI Mobility Radeon X 1600

    Extract the files in a new folder created. Open it and use setup.exe.
    What happens when you start it manually using setup.exe?

    Alternatively, you can try to start the installation in the Bin folder.

  • C55 - A satellite - keep Windows after changing the HARD drive?

    Hello

    I want to buy Toshiba Satellite C55 - A, which is pre-installed Windows 8.1 and the recovery on the HARD drive Partition.
    I also want to buy 256 GB SSD and put it in Toshiba (and use the external as hard drive from Toshiba HARD drive).

    Can I install Windows 8.1 that I bought (preinstalled) on the SSD?
    If so, how?

    Of course, you can swap the HARD drive with an SSD.
    The key is the recovery media (USB key or drive).
    You must create a recovery disk to replace the HARD drive.

    Laptop Toshiba computers are preinstalled with software called Toshiba Recovery Media creator.
    This allows you to create a recovery media that you can use to reinstall the system on the new SSD installed!

  • Can satellite M70-337 - I put the HARD drive?

    Hi all,.

    I have a Satellite M70-337, the vehicle currently has 40 GB of hard drive. The laptop has served me well and I want to upgrade the hard drive 100 GB +, anyone has done this?

    If Yes please advise on the type of hard drive required and their availability. I have 2 GB of RAM and want to run Windows 7 on this computer.

    Hey mate,

    Of course you can upgrade the HARD drive why not? :)

    AFAIK Equium M70 already use hard drives with Serial ATA interface. This means that you must buy a 2.5 HARD drive with this interface.
    For example, a 120 GB model should work!

    In my view, it is irrelevant, what type (manufacturing) that you choose. There is no major differences, but I have good experiences with Western Digital.

  • Satellite A300D-17Z - cannot install the display driver for Vista

    Hello

    There is a big problem with my A300D-17Z.

    The laptop has ATI HD3470 Hybrid Crossfire display system. I'm trying to install the driver in Vista Ultimate, but it does not work. The ATI Catalyst control cannot install and ATI driver file is empty. Shows Device Manager still there are two graphics card with «!» I tried so many ways. Install framework 3.5, pilot of the AMD 7 series, last version of the ATI driver, driver of the same other computer brand who says that worked.

    Please help me, I had been tormented for nearly 48 hours. PLEASE, I BEG YOU!

    Hello!

    Have you tried to install the driver to display on the Toshiba site? You can find it here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    Before you try to install a new display driver, you must remove any old version in Add/Remove programs. Then, restart the laptop and use CCleaner to clean the system. Restart again and then install the new version.

    You have the same problem with the factory settings? In the worst case, you must reinstall Windows using Toshiba recovery disc.

  • Satellite A350 - where to download the display driver?

    I accidentally deleted my ATI display driver and now I am currently using the standard VGA graphics card, I tried to download a new driver on the toshiba site, but the link does not work. (I'm using a 64-bit operating system).

    Is there another where I could download a display driver, and also im don't know who I have to download that is compatible with my satellite A350-PSAL6A?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    I checked the European site of Toshiba, and there, I created a very similar model, the Satellite A350 PSAL6E. It seems that this laptop is equipped with the same graphics card and the download works.

  • Satellite A100 (PSAA9E) - Cannot install the display driver for Windows 7

    I have a problem with installing official Toshiba Windows 7 x 32 ATI x 1600 driver.

    After unpacking it should run install.exe, I think, but it's not; nothing happens. Go on the Setup.exe with installation manual, then I see no Catalyst Control Center & Display Driver from the list, just the catalyst install Manager & vcredist. After installing these components (CCC & DD) are not present.

    Any ideas?

    P.S. Same problem with the official driver of Toshiba Vista32 ATI x 1600.

    Hi mate,

    You have already installed other drivers for the laptop? I mean the chipset driver, this driver must be installed first.
    And are you sure that you have ATI display driver? Some Satellite A100 models were shipped with the nVidia graphics card, AFAIK.

    Moreover, what happens if you install driver manual in device via advanced installation manager?
