• Cheesy screen with the ATI graphics card

  Hello everyone,

  is it just me or someone has this problem, too?
  If I change the graphics card (switchable graphics) on Windows 7 64 bit to the ATI graphics card, the display is much more "Corny" and the colors don't really that nice shows. It seems that there are horns on the screen.

  With the graphics card Intel, the screen looks sleek and 'normal' for me.

  I already reset the settings in the ATI Configuration tool, but it doesn't really help.

  Someone at - it suggestions?

  In Catalyst Control Center Power, click on select Maximum Performance when it is plugged
  Then in global settings of Switchable Graphics also choose maximize Performance
  Then click on the switchable graphics Application settings

  Now, you would be able to add an application (for example a game) that could use this graphics card settings
  Simply tap the exe of the game and add to the list of applications.
  After that, you will see the exe file in the list. Click the graphics settings and set it to high performance.

  By the way: this YouTube clip could be interesting...
  It shows you how to go to ATI GPU and best performance of the GPU.

  Hello

  You have a few problems with the Toshiba display driver?
  Graphics drivers from Toshiba are modified for mobile use, this means that the Toshiba drivers support for GPU overheating protection.
  ATI drivers don t support this protection and this is the reason why you get this message.
  Generally, you have to take the driver of Toshiba page

  Of course, it is possible to install the ATI drivers also.
  But you would need to install the driver in Device Manager.

  How to disable BIOS (or uefi or otherwise), the graphics card intel?

  It is not possible to disable the GPU (no matter if its gpu internal or external) in the BIOS.
  This option is not supported by the BIOS.
  You can disable the internal GPU in Device Manager, or you can configure the settings to use only the nVidia GPU.
  This can be done in the nVIdia Control Panel.

  I can't work on how to spend my (ok my wife!) T500 to use the ATI graphics card. Everything I read says do a right click on the battery icon, and then select "maximum performance" or words to that effect. So I did. Then what?

  I installed updates some time ago and the problem has been corrected. Not very impressed it worked not out of the box.

• Satellite P305-S8822 - withdrawal of the dedicated graphics card

  Dear members of the forum,

  probably due to a fault of the graphics card dedicated to my

  Toshiba Satellite P305-S8822 (PSPC4U - 02T 014)
  Processor Intel Core 2 Duo T 5550
  ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 graphics card
  3072 MB PC5300 DDR2 SDRAM
  200 GB Serial ATA hard drive

  I'm not able to install Windows 7 or an another Version of Windows. Because I don't have the dedicated graphics card (only the onboard integrated graphics card) and found no BIOS option to turn it off, I would like to remove it from the motherboard. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find out whether or not the ATI graphics card is welded (which this would make very difficult). Thanks a lot for your answers and a better idea to solve the problem.

  To be honest, it won't be easy to solve your problem. Why?
  Many people who have mobile machines the same logic valid for desktop computers. Exchange upgrade or hardware components on mobile units is very limited and you can simply swap the GPU or change the BIOS settings.

  If the GPU is faulty in many cases entire motherboard must be replaced. I don't know what other people will write here, but what you can do is contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help or advice what can be done about it.

• I have upgraded to Windows 8. How can I get the switchable graphics to work?

  Windows 8 was released a little over a month and several users have had the desire to upgrade their laptop for Windows 8.

  However, the laptop doesn't have any Windows 8 at HP software, because it is not yet approved for Windows 8.

  This usually results in video cards being turned on so only used Intel graphics card.  Some symptoms of this is the laptop is running more hot than usual and the battery life is significantly short due to these two cards being fed at the same time.

  This isn't an official solution to this problem, but it worked for me and others.

  1. install the HP software framework found here.

  Credit for finding this link goes to CherylG.

  2. then, uninstall all ATI/AMD software through programs and features.

  3. go to www.hp.com and select Support and drivers at the top.

  4. Select software downloads and the pilot, then enter your product model or product number.

  5. Select the most recent operating system corresponding to your installation of Windows 8 bit architecture.  For example, Windows 7 64 bit for 64-bit Windows 8.

  6 download the ATI graphics card driver.

  7. run the file once it is finished downloading.

  8. let the finished extraction process, but cancel the installation when you are prompted to continue after extraction.  Note where this is extracted to.  By default, this should be c:\swsetup\.

  9. here, there should be a setup.exe to install the ATI driver.  Right-click it and select troubleshoot compatibility.

  10 follow the troulbeshooter of compatibility and select the suggested fixes.  On one screen, there will be a button of test program.  Click here to begin the installation.

  11. follow the installation and it must successfully complete.

  12. Once completed, right click on the desktop to check that configures it with the switchable graphics option is listed.

  Once this done, switchable graphics should work fine on most systems.  This translates into reduced heat and charge the battery lasting longer.

  While this may not work for everyone, he worked for many users.

  I hope this helps.

• Satellite M70: How install driver ATI graphics card

  Hello!

  I want to install the graphics card ati form homepage, which means the newest releases drivers :)
  I downloaded the driver from ati.com (catalyst), that this driver is specially designed for NOTEBOOK computers!

  I can't install driver, Setup writes that I have to contact toshiba.
  What can I do to install the ati drivers?
  Please help me if you can!

  Michi

  Hi Michi

  Nothing to do!
  I checked the site Web of ATI. I chose the notebooks with ATI graphics card and checked which laptop manufacturers are supported.
  and... Is there any Toshiba laptop.

  It is not advisable to install the other drivers for graphics cards. You should always use own graphics driver Toshiba because it is a little bit different. Graphics drivers of Toshiba supports an overheating protection to control performance and temperature.
  The laptop card is a module of own cooling as the desktop PC.
  If the temperature rises to the critical level driver degrades performance.

  Now you know why you must use the drivers from Toshiba. However, I read that it is possible to install the omega drivers.
  But if you install the drivers and use so you can do it at your own risk!
