Do I need a driver update

I don't remember how I got this program to upgrade the pilot saying horrible things about my computer.  It seems that it is associated with Microsoft, but I'm not sure.

How will I know that I need a driver update?

When I click on the program, I have the window 'do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?' Slimwater utilities.

I'm not sure I want to.

Slimware who?

Why would I trust them?

Thank you for your help.

It is not the case.

Microsoft does not make such a thing.

These applications are not only useless, but many contain malware runners.

Find out what hardware you have, refer to manufacturer web sites, get the drivers for the models of the devices that you have the source ONLY.

    Hello

    On the European driver Toshiba page, you can find the new Toshiba nVidia graphics drivers that are available right now!

    The same graphics card was also installed in the Satellite X 200 PSPB9E series.
    You can check the drivers also designed for this series.

    Usually only the Toshiba graphics drivers should be used because of the overheating protection that is available in the graphics drivers Toshiba and which is not supported by the graphics drivers from manufacturer of graphics cards drivers.

    But if you want, you can try to install the drivers GPU NVIDIA page, BUT ONLY at YOUR OWN RISK!
    To install this driver, you need to go to Device Manager and update the driver by using the Advanced installation. Then you choose the last option don't search. I will install the driver and must point to the downloaded nVidia Driver.

    But once again; This can be done at your own risk.

    Good bye

  • Satellite P100 - 347 (PSPA6E) - need Display Driver Update

    Hi all

    Display drivers on the driver download page has not been updated in ages,
    and I want to upgrade to the latest nVidia drivers.

    When I try and install drivers from www.nvidia.com, they keep referring me to Toshiba, however,
    but the pilot, we have from there is that the version 8.4.0.0.

    Someone at - it advice on the way to work around that, and can someone tell me what changes in drivers, Toshiba has occurred since nVidia redirects you instead of just updating the drivers.

    The version of windows that came with the laptop is Windows XP MCE

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    > Someone at - it advice on how to work around this, and someone can tell me what changes in drivers, Toshiba has occurred since nVidia redirects you instead of just updating the drivers.

    The point is that Toshiba own graphics drivers are not the same thing as the original graphic drivers from the card manufacturers.
    Own drivers Toshiba are modified and support a thermal protection that helps protect the equipment from overheating.
    Why? Because laptops do not have cooling huge modules like office graphics cards and so the pilot must control a part of the heat dissipation!

    As far as I know it of possible to install the drivers from the nVidia Web site using the Advanced installation procedure. You can update the driver in Device Manager and could point to the place where the driver has been downloaded.

    But note; the use of the graphics driver not Toshiba is only at your own risk and it s not covered by the warranty!

  • Do I need a 3rd party Driver Updater?

    Hello.

    I received an email from WinZip offer me Driver Updater software. I had a look at the comments on this product and other products that offer the same thing, what prompts my question here.

    I understand the importance of keeping drivers up to date, but thought that Microsoft had already done with regular updates.

    Microsoft provides updates only for windows and I need a 3rd party product to update other devices?

    I'm running a Gigabyte PC with Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1.

    Thank you and best regards,

    Brent

    Personally, I do not recommend the third updaters.

    If a driver update is required, in my view, I go to the manufacture of the device, motherboard, etc. and download the necessary drivers.

    If your system works correctly, an update of the driver is not necessarily required.

    Many driver updates are here simply because recent hardware becomes available and are of no benefit to older systems.

  • now that I've updated to El Capitan, my Brother DCP will not work and I can't find a driver update

    Now that I've updated to El Capitan, my Brother DCP will not work and I can't find a driver update. Everyone finds something?

    Here are the current models of Brother products which are supported.

    http://support.brother.com/g/s/ID/OS/Macintosh.html

    If your model is supported drivers will be on this page. Otherwise, contact the manufacturer and see if they have a driver for your printer from specific model for this OS. Otherwise, you may need to downgrade to a previous operating system from a backup Time Machine or a downgrade for compatibility, if it is not offered by the brother of your device to model on a computer running OS 10.11.

    Apparently not all printers DCP mind are compatible, but most that were compatible with the OS 10.10.x always conform to their page.

  • Need new driver NVIDIA for my Satellite Pro 2100

    Hello

    Anyone know if there is a newer version of the NVIDIA graphics driver that comes with the satellite pro 2100? I looked on the Toshiba downloads section and on the NVIDIA site, I have not had any look to find everything. They simply stopped updating this driver?

    Any help will be thank you very much and I do a search before posting, but haven't found anything.

    Thank you

    Hello Steve

    Satellite Pro 2100 is fairly old unit. It is about 6 years old. Graphics card is NVidia GeForce4 420Go with 16 MB of memory only. Now the question: do you really want that Toshiba should support unit of 6 years with the latest NVIDIA driver? Please don't be crazy on me, but I really don't understand what you expect.

    A more interesting question to me is: for what purpose you need new driver? You want to use with newer games, or maybe you some graphic problems watching movies DSVD?

  • Question about graphics card driver updates on Satellite U300 series

    I am installing Spyder2 Pro on Vista Home premium 32-bit, but I have problems with this load in CS2. I contacted Colorvision and they suggested that if the video card is more than 6 months old I would need the last update. I searched toshiba/intel Web sites and could not update, when I download and try to install it I have the version more up-to-date, which is 7.14.10.1263.

    Can anyone help!

    Hello

    I think you probably have an error during the download of the driver. As I know the latest version of the Intel VGA for Vista Home Premium 32 Bit drivers is '7.14.10.1409 '. Please click [HERE: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/filter_results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2301&OS FullName = windowsvista + * + Home + Premium % 2 C + 32 - bits + version & lang = eng & strOSs = 153 & submit = Go % 21] and download this driver to update your graphics driver to the latest version.

    Would be recognizing some comments if the update worked for you.

    Hello

    On the Toshiba driver graphics drivers are always the latest drivers available for the unique laptop series.
    The point is that graphics drivers from Toshiba are not the same thing as original manufacturers GPU graphics drivers.

    Anyway, is there a way to install the driver nVidia GPU.
    You could install from Device Manager and that you use the Advanced installation.
    Then choose; + Don t find. I will choose the driver to install. +
    Then, you must point to the driver that you downloaded from the NVidia site.

    But note; No driver installation gone 3rd in ONLY at your own RISK!
    Using the nVidia drivers can overheat and damage the graphics chip.

  • HD4600 graphics driver update problems

    Hello - I had problems with my new pc from HP ENVY 700-515xt CTO. Somehow, the file system has become corrupted I made a recovery through the recovery Partition procedure. Who went well as far as I know.

    All updates have been applied, and a new HD4600 Graphics Driver has been installe-10.18.14.4029-18/11/2014. Now, the driver stops and restarts frequently. The site of HP Software and Driver said the most recent driver is 10.18.10.3995 Rev.A-

    June 9, 2015, but la.4029 settles. There is no way to roll back the driver Rev.A.3995.

    Please advise on this problem and help me. If you need more information, newspapers, etc., please let me know.

    Thank you!

    Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds

    On the Forum:

    After a bit of study and research, we were able to resolve this issue on our own. HP Diagnostics indicated a

    Low memory. After the execution of memory diagnostic Windows and MemTest86 +, which indicated the wasy memory very well.

    We explored elsewhere. Pilots in relevant areas have been all updated and all is well now. We can

    certainly say that there was a problem on the site HP Driver and software - someday that he downloaded the pilote.4029,.

    which is the direct Intel driver not OEM, and 2 days later, the site offers the version.3995. That, along with a

    Chipset driver update solved the problem.

    Be advised-don't take any advice also determining all things you here on the internet in one of these forums. Yes, listen to

    what people have to offer, but check their reviews with at least 2 other sources and use your good sense. Too much of

    application expertise out there and they will get you into trouble.

    Thank you for any input on my original request.

    Balas,

    Software bug is not affected in Android version 4.1.2 and above. Google announced that users on Android 4.1.1 and more are in danger of hearbleed.

    You can see that software affects your device in this application because even if you use Android 4.1.2 OR older, applications and services are still vulnerable to the heatbleed.

    And on the Audio bug driver... I didn't have this bug in my running the most recent update for A1000G tab.

    Lenovo,

    A software update is necessary to fix the C/F changability in the weather widget (it is fixed in the latest FIRMWARE that comes with the tabs but is not provided by OTA. I have provided the .apk fixed in the forum if you want to check) and update system applications. An android update would be nice, but I wasn't expecting.
