Equium L40: slow graphics performance while playing a few games

In the past months, I have the same played a few games and have noticed that I'm more in addition to lag screen gradually.

I guess it's due to the graphics card. The graphics card is a Mobile Intel (r) 965 Express Chipset Family, and it is updated with the latest drivers.
I'm on Windows Vista Home Edition 32-bit.

Appreciate your help.

Hello

I I think that don t games run smoothly because of the lowest performance chart
I think it s a shared memory graphics card.

This means that available graphics card memory depends on the amount of main memory.
For example you laptop has installed 1 GB of system memory and GPU use 251 MB (128 MB video memory + system Shared Memory System 123 MB)
If laptops use 2 GB of RAM then the GPU could use 358MB (128 MB + 230 MB)

In addition the Vista operating system needs a lot of resources of the laptop. He needs more as a beginning like Win XP OS. The games are unable to use these resources because these resources are occupied by Vista.

As you see it installed (Vista OS) software and graphics card can affect game performance

I think you should try the graphic details of game and other specify settings to a lower maybe level helps.

Good bye

  • Graphics late while playing games

    original title: problem of serious games

    I play a few games online, and for several months now, I was barely able to run them. I get extreme lag, so that the graphics will move, while the sound plays fine. I guess just maybe it was a problem with my video card or something, except that sometimes, one minute at a time, sometimes more and sometimes less, the game starts suddenly works perfectly well. This suggests that my computer is ABLE to run the games, but is not just most of the time, and I can't understand why. I did research more that I have to find a solution to this problem, but I can't even find someone else who suffer. Reducing the graphics quality ingame does not help.

    For reference, I'm on a computer HP Pavilion p6320 with 8 GB of ram and a NVIDIA GeForce 9100 integrated graphics. I have more than 600 GB of free space on the computer, so I do not know is not the problem. I have updated all drivers for my graphics card and DirectX, as well. I am also sure that it is not my internet connection, because I downloaded a reference software for a game that is not connected to the internet during the race, and he did exactly the same thing.

    I would also like to point out that I have antivirus and anti-spyware software, and I don't get lag on the computer outside of the game.

  • Equium L40-156: graphics card problem - error code 12 in Device Manager

    People of the night...

    Just got a family run Vista premium, Equium L40-156, everything is going well except a little problem with the display adapter (Mobile Intel 965).

    Tried the drivers that I had with the installer
    Tried the drivers from the toshiba download page
    Tried the drivers on the Microsoft Update site
    Tried the drivers from the website of intel

    All have the same problem, in Device Manager, it shows with an error (the pretty yellow triangle with the "!") with an error code 12 (the device cannot find enough free resources) even after a system resart.

    Switching view hidden devices displays a 2nd same device, but works correctly, but the two disappear if I try to delete either.
    Display settings do not display a connected device, DXDIAG had no idea either.

    Latest version of the BIOS installed, all other devices are very good and can not see an IO overlap anywhere

    Any suggestions, greatly appriciated

    Hello

    I have studied a little bit and looked on the Microsoft page for some answers and found out what exactly means the error code 12.

    ------------------------------------
    + Error code 12 +.

    + This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system. (Code 12) +.

    + Two devices are assigned the same i/o ports, the same interrupt, or the same Direct memory access channel (whether through BIOS, the operating system, or a combination of both). This error message may also appear if the BIOS did not allocate enough resources to the device (for example, if a (USB) universal serial bus controller is not an interruption of the BIOS because of a corrupt MPS (Multiprocessor) system table). +
    -------------------------------------

    Well, what to say; usually this error message should not appear with the original Toshiba preinstalled operating system.
    I put t know if you have changed something or add an additional device, but it would be very interesting to know if the same error message appears after the reinstallation of the OS.
    You can use the Toshiba Recovery CD/DVD of restoration!

    All the drivers, the tools are already preinstalled on the recovery CD so the entire procedure will not take very long. about 10 min.

    Check this box and report if the same error is displayed on the laptop with the factory settings!

  • Performance while playing games problems

    Original title: stuttering problems in games that also affects the office.

    OK, so I've had this problem for a little while and for the life of me, I can't identify its cause. I noticed it about 2 months ago. During the game Saints Row 4, I noticed that this stuttering took place every now and then. Essentially, the game is very, very smooth, but it would start this weird stuttering suddenly and would last for a random time. Stuttering would occur at an almost exact frequency of every half second. When you turn the view quickly, this would make the scene jump forward as if there is lack of images for animation. I alt-tab out and back in the game, which seemed to fix it, but I was wrong on this issue. This was not a fire that difficulty, as it worked only sometimes. I assumed that the alt - tab solution may just be a coincidence. Also, sometimes I can play for hours and never see this stuttering, it's completely random when it happens. Initially, I thought it was the game, but as the days went on, I noticed it popping up in just about every game I play. I thought at first it was only using direct3d games, but I started noticing every game, even the 2d games.

    Another problem with this is, I alt tabs on a game, pulled up to see if all processes have been hitting the cpu and noticed stuttering when I re-size the window Task Manager. So I kept stretching the sides of the window back and noticed that stuttering is present on my desktop. After being on the desktop for a while, it seems to stop, how can I return to the game and play for free, for a random period of stuttering.

    I saw no process hogging the CPU on the performance tab, and the ram usage was normal. Did not notice the spikes, either, other than stuttering of weird window. I tried many things to solve this problem and many have sought a forum on stuttering, nothing helps. So far I've updated map mother drivers (including my sound chipset), rolled drivers on my video card after their update without any positive result, ran memtestx86 to rule out the possibility of problems with ram, tried different usb ports, thinking they are defective, ran programs to check the temperature of cpu and gpu (who contributed the most to 45 and 68(c) respectively), tried to launch games from a different hard disk, open my file and pulled out my video card, all dusted off and put the card in a different PCIe slot, ran malwarebytes to remove malware running in the background, disabled startup items not vital and maybe a few other things that I don't remember, right now. Long story short, I was not able to find the problem.

    I've seen people say all sorts of things, like disable the speedstep and other energy saving features, but I've also seen people try to demystify these solutions. I've always had has permitted, for almost 2 years now, so if that was the cause, I guess I would have noticed it before now. The problem with not knowing what is causing it is, it makes it difficult to reproduce the problem. Most of the time, I have to wait awhile, after trying a solution given, only to discover that stuttering is still there. It is not a performance issue. I know what bad performance in PC games, and it's something totally different. My PC runs beautifully, until this stuttering starts. Game demanding resource or not, it is present in everything that once it starts, even the office. Definitely seems to be triggered by the game, however, which leads me to believe that I can just have a problem with my gpu hardware. I have another video card I could put in there and will probably be the next day or two, but it is so old I probably would not be able to tell if I get stutters or general bad performance.

    As I said, a game can be run for hours, silky or it could immediately start stuttering, it is very random. If anyone has an idea of what I could try, your help would be greatly appreciated. I'd love to understand this, before I begin to buy new hardware or reinstall my OS, as I have very bad internet and download updates and games would be an absolute nightmare. Thank you very much for your time and congratulations, if you have done throughout this post.

    My specs are:

    Windows 7 64-bit family

    Intel Corei7 3820 @3. 6 ghz

    Keyboard game steel series (usb)

    Holy *, man, sacred *. I think that I found the solution, or at least I hope. It kinda makes me crazy, everything that makes me happy. He just started stuttering in a game and for some strange reason, I decided to join the back of my monitor and wiggle it's cable and stuttering instantly went away. I wonder if the solution is as simple as a cable, or maybe true DVI port on my monitor. Man I hope so. It could very well be a coincidence, but it stopped immediately after wiggling the cable. Hoping that I found it! : DDD

    Is this Toshiba pre-installed Vista OS or have you installed Win XP?

    From my experience the iaStor0 for the SATA driver file belongs and maybe it s a HARD drive problem

    Have you changed anything in the BIOS?
    Maybe something like SATA to AHCI mode compatible mode?

  • Equium L40 - internet does not work if I open more than one Web site

    I have an Equium L40-10 X, and while the system works well, he doesn't like the internet. If I open more than one Web site, a little box comes up saying that Internet Explorer has experienced a problem and must be restarted. It becomes excruciatingly embarrassing if I'm in the middle of something important and I lose the site I've been on!

    Especially with me, go to college soon too! Especially it will refuse to work if I have to download something, for example, I recently bought an Apple iPod Nano and I needed iTunes in order for me to put music on it, but once he starts the download, the "internet has stopped working" appears and I have to start everything again, but instead of her work - quite simply, there is no!

    This often becomes a case and it makes me incredibly stressed!
    Help, please.

    Hello

    Always use the OS from windows update?
    These errors occur if the registry is dirty and drunks was not updated!

    Update windows on Microsoft for the last State page!
    In addition, you must clean the registry using the freeware tool called CCleaner. It s nice!

    So finally a hint;
    You can access the internet with Microsoft Internet Explorer and with another internet browser like Firefox for example.

    I recommend you this possibility.

    Hello! I installed the game gear of wars, but the graphic is distorted.

    Any advice?

    I have some video diver already upgraded to the latest version.

    Hello Juanito

    Please take a look again in the announcement made by InvaderZim.
    He said that the L40-18 x laptop computer is not a real game machine. I agree with InvaderZim.

    The Intel graphics card was not designed for games. Of course, you would be able to play the games, but you shouldn't t expect any graphic performance.

    In addition, you use a Win Vista OS. This OS needs more resources for laptop running Win XP for example. That's why you should t wonder that your game does not work smoothly!

    With regard to the patch of the game.
    I put t know if a fix is available or not but if it s is available, then you should check the Web site of manufacture of game for more details.

    See you soon
