Graphics card driver update problem

Pavilion p6240f PC

Win 7/64-bit

8 GB OF DDR3 MEMORY

Intel GMA X 4500

I am trying to upgrade my graphic card Intel, a G45 Express Chipset, when I try to download the driver I get the message: "update failed (259).

I tried to install it with my protection virus and firewall disabled.

I went to the command prompt and a scan for problems, it is in has not reported.

The next step would be to re - install the original driver but I do not know how to do and if that would even work.

Thanks for any help.

Hello @heaterguy,

I understand that you are at the point where you are looking to replace your graphics card. You can update your graphics card. Just using a PCE Express x 16 graphic card and remember to keep in mind the requirements of power currently according to the Specifications of HP Pavilion p6240f Desktop PC , you have a 300 Watt power supply. If the graphics card, you choose requirement more power than you need to update as well.

Also, be sure to disable in the BIOS of your integrated graphics.

I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Satellite P10 and the graphics card driver updates

    Hello

    I'm a newbie on this forum, but let's get to the point. I have Toshiba Satellite PSP10E (PIV 2.8HT 800 Mhz, 1 GB of system memory bus speed and UNFORTUNATELY a GF 5600go...).
    My (not only) problem is that Toshiba use engineering video BIOS version and it does not have the latest drivers for the geforce series. The most up-to-date driver that really works is the last of the series 5xxx... so you can see that none of the newer games can be run with a performance on this map... because older drivers don't use really not (available at directx9.0) 2.0 pixel shader. It would not be a problem if Toshiba would give an update not only BIOS system, but also the bios video (new system BIOS contains the same old video bios.

    I really had to settle for playing games that are 2 years old? First of all pay a lot of money for a witch of the computer has enough power to run some new but don't care support Toshiba for this...

    I was the proud owner of a Toshiba laptop, but I'm not! If I had to choose again, I decide to buy computer Toshiba...
    My Question: is that Toshiba will do something with this problem? Someone knows how to help? Thanks for any help (I have not found such a problem in this forum, sorry if it has been the front sign) and sorry for my English (hope that's understandable)
    My video Bios is: v4.31.20.56.A6

    Hello

    We know that you can not install the drivers downloaded from the download page of GF because of the restriction of material. It's not only the Toshiba models, but also on other producers of portable and if you visit the download page of graphics cards, it is always recommended to download drivers designed by the manufacturers of portable.

    I think that nobody can explain why it's because I'm sure you know the reason. The performance of the graphics card will always be a topic of discussion and you will always want to have maximum performance for games with laptop, although performance may not be the same as on the desktop where you have the possibility to change the graphics card and install the latest drivers.

    Because of this, I think that it is really unnecessary to some turbulence here. Believe me, you can buy what you want, but after two or three years you will be always satisfied with something.

    In any case, good luck and enjoy life!

  • The satellite L650 - 1 M 0 graphics card driver update

    I want to update my graphics (hd 5650) driver.
    Driver Toshiba site is old. I want the latest driver for my graphics card.

    Can someone give some link to new driver?

    You can check the drivers that have been released for other portable Toshiba supporting the same graphics card ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650

    AFAIK the notebooks with the same GPU are:
    Satellite L650D PSK1SE
    Satellite L655 PSK1JE
    Satellite L655D-PSK1SE
    Satellite L670 PSK3EE
    Satellite L670D PSK3NE
    Satellite L675 PSK3EE
    Satellite L675D PSK3NE

    Satellite Pro L650 PSK1KE
    Satellite Pro L670 PSK3FE

    Otherwise, you can consult the page of the ATI driver, but the use of these drivers is your risk and peril since these ATI drivers are not modified for mobile use.

  • Sat Pro 2100: the graphics card driver updates

    I bought a laptop from Toshiba in 2002 (satellite pro) and they have just updated the VGA driver once...
    I bought a toshiba, then because they had the graphics card, I'd need for my study (virtual design) but now because Toshiba somehow don't think that new drivers are important I can't use certain features have new drivers and my chip does not support, but I have not the driver for them.
    Is this normal?
    If it is then maybe I should get another brand in the future.

    Gaga Hello

    As you know Toshiba have many different models of laptops, and I think that it is not easy to design and test many updates especially for older models. In my opinion, you should check what new portable has the same or similar graphics card and try to install the latest driver designed by Toshiba.

    Unfortunately I put t know one you have and don't know if the new driver will be working properly, but you can try anyway.

    Good bye

    I have desktop pc HP Pavilion 500-242 running Windows 8.1 (pre-installed) which has driver AMD Radion HD D 7560/AMD Radion R5 235 double Graphic and when I searched the website of AMD and ran their graphics card auto detect culminating in the update utility is available. I downloaded... but the screen is blank... That is to say the black screen of death. I restarted the pc, but still the screen was black. I had no other choice but to return to the default configuration of PC.

    Have I downloaded the right pair or should I use HP Support Assistant to check updates, but leading to nothing and I checked the HP website for driver downloads but don't know if the update is here.

  • 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.

  • Satellite A60-106: ATI graphics card driver update

    I have a laptop Satellite A60-106 and I was told to update my driver graphics ATI Mobility Radeon 7000 IGP, otherwise I won't be able to view the photos taken from the video.

    I'm unable to locate these updates on the Toshiba site. Nobody knows where and how I can get this update?

    Hello

    I don't know if I understood your question right, but you are not able to look at images from your video camera to Mr. I'm wrong?
    I put t think that the graphics driver has something to do with this action.

    What applications did you use? How did you exactly connected the external device? Did you get any error messages?

    Just for the info: I used last time on my laptop the driver from the Omega.net Web site. But on the Toshiba site I found a news that Toshiba recommended to use only the Toshiba drivers graphics and different drivers, you can install it at your own risk!

  • Satellite P200 accidents + message: graphic card driver does not work properly

    Hello

    hope that this issue has not been covered before, but I've owned a Satellite P200 for 3 years now, and this week, it crashes all the time.

    When it started going down he gave me a few messages in the sense of "your graphics card/driver does not work properly and windows will be arrested to avoid damage.

    It has progressed to the point where now when I turn it on, I have vertical lines running down the screen and the screen flashes on and outside. Within 20 seconds, it restores the BSOD - 'there was a problem and windows will be arrested. Error Page_Fault_In_Non_Paged_Area"then stops.

    I ran a system restore but the problem remains.

    I have a feeling that my graphics card is toast. Is this good? Are there any other options to try? Thanks in advance for any answers.

    Hello

    Sounds like the GPU problem.
    But try the graphics card driver update.
    Use the most recent driver for your graphics card.

    In addition, clean the fans of portable computers.
    Dust and debris could prevent the cooling fans to turn with the best speed and this could lead to a higher temperature which would lead to overheating.
    Use a jet of compressed air. I also use it and it helps to get rid of dust and debris.

    If this is not enough, then a problem of graphics chip would be possible.

  • Satellite A500-1GL: 2 questions: the fan speed & graphic card driver failures

    Hello

    I have 2 questions, hopefully someone can help me with that.

    * The first question - quick fan *.

    I'm on online gamer second life and world of the craft of war) recently my fan speed crank up to 90 percent for about 5/10 minutes before leaving quiet. Then speed up again after a period of time. I'm confused as to why he did this because when I check my cpu temp is only make 40%, and I use a cool buffer table.

    I'm looking for some advise here because all said Toshiba was making sure I had the latest bios update. But I would have thought it is not the processor overheating the fan must not be crank that quickly. My laptop is only 2 months old.

    Can anyone help, should I be worried?

    * Second question - graphics driver *.

    Also on a couple of times I got my screen briefly go black and then recover. A pop up appears saying something along the lines of the core of the graphics card.... Driver recovered. It flashes if fast, that I never see the entire message. Don't you think that something is wrong with the graphics card? (card nividia geforce gt300m)

    I really hope that someone can offer more help that Toshiba has done, as I am a bit unhappy to be problems on a 2 month old laptop.

    Thank you for reading and I look forward to any Advisor.

    The cooling fan is controlled by the fan table in the BIOS. Fan table contains information about the temperature and the fan speed that means the depands on some level temperature fan speed.
    Over all the possible game features as the CPU, GPU, produce heat and the heat dissipation is high
    Cooling modules would begin to turn faster if the temperature level would be exceeded
    This is nothing exceptional everything at stake

    I read on a similar question, and apparently, the graphics card DRIVER crashed during games
    Maybe it's a compatibility problem between game and pilot
    In most cases the graphics card driver update should fix this and I read on some forums that it has helped in many cases

  • Game Minecraft OpenGL satellite L650 - driver update problem - PSK1E

    Hello

    I know that several posts have already highlighted this problem.

    I have a Satellite L650 PSK1EE.
    Sorry if this is not the right place to post but I could not find anywhere else to start a new thread.

    Essentially my children want to use * Minecraft * on this laptop. I downloaded it but get the error message that my graphics driver is not compatible opengl. I only have Intel. So I tried the usual driver updates, then I tried to download a generic Intel driver but I don't know which one is right.

    Once I have selected * chart * then * laptop graphics driver * s then I get the choice between 2nd or 3rd generation processors, accelerators and mobile chipsets, which none means nothing to me and I'm stuck.

    It seems that some people have managed to circumvent the built-in graphics card driver and update manually one this way, once you know what you download and then unzip and so on...

    Of course, I can waste my time.

    If anyone knows how to proceed, I'd be very grateful for any help so that I can stop spending hours Googling this.

    Thank you very much

  • Upgrade of Windows 8 has changed my graphics card driver, & now I get vertical bars on the screen.

    Upgrade of Windows 8 has changed my graphics card driver, & now I get vertical bars on the screen, sometimes flashing. It is sometimes difficult to use the screen, especially when it has a dark background. It is a HP Desktop quad core with card Nvidia GEForce 9600.  I tried to roll back the driver, but that didn't help. I assume that the driver I need is no longer available. I also went to Nvidia to try to find a better driver that would eliminate this problem, but no luck.  Before, this came with an update on Vista, & I could correct in the way to roll back the driver. Any help would be appreciated.

    Go to www.nvidia.com and download the WHQL 306,97 drivers updated successfully.

    With the installation of Windows 8, Microsoft provides only the "bare" minimum drivers in order to complete the installation of Windows.
