My Z500 won't read the dedicated graphics card driver.

Or just got a new Z500, removed the BONE, it came with and Windows 8.1 is installed.

First of all, I had a problem that the screen was too low, so I fiddled with the driver and after removing and re - install the graphics driver Intel HD4000, I managed to get back to normal.

However, I tried to install PES 2011 on it, and everytime I open its settings, it would give a warning that my system does not meet the minimum requirements. It would show that he only reads the HD4000 Intel.

So, normally, I try to re - install the nVidia drivers and install new and others, but to no avail. I tried to check in the BIOS, but I'm only given two options: switchable graphics or UMA and not knowing what UMA is I chose the switchable graphics option.

Any ideas what to do?

I'd be happy to offer more information, if necessary. It has a GT 740 M btw.

  • 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

    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.

  • The use of the dedicated graphics card? Power management works not at all, no difference

    I bought a lenovo g500 and after installing every single player on this site, I decided to test some games from my pc to the laptop.

    Unfortunately, I see the games from the pc do worse than what they do on the pc (and the pc is old) so I think that the amd graphics card are not at all. Can someone explain how to enable the amd radeon video card? BIOS does not help and the CCC (catalyst control center doesn't help either).

    For example:

    I could run borderlands 2 in a little weak graphics on the pc perfectly.

    However on my laptop I can not even reach the main menu because of the very low fps.

    Another example is crysis 2, works perfectly on the graphic means on the pc, runs on 2-4 fps on the laptop.

    Features of the laptop:

    Video card

    Intel HD 4000 (one built-in) + ddr3 2 GB AMD Radeon HD 8570 (128-bit)

    Memory

    4 GB of ddr3 memory

    Processor

    Processor Intel Core i7-3612 QM @2.10 ghz

    Specifications of the PC:

    Video card

    NVIDIA GTX 650 1 GB ddr3 (128-bit)

    Processor

    AMD Dual Core 6000 + @ 3.2 ghz

    Memory

    4 GB of ddr3 memory

    Applications in full-screen mode using lags like hell, my mouse moves in slowmotion too much (real slowmotion)

    Edit: windows is 64-bit windows 7.

    The solution was to install windows 8 (bought a copy of the professional edition x 64), and then install the drivers from the site. Now everything works as expected. Must have had a problem with the windows 7 x 64 and x 86 drivers... Well, now it works.

    @shauni: tried with borderlands 2, could get 11-13 fps MAX during the game with graphics maxed out regardless of the diet plan, but as soon as I switched to windows 8, the amd video card started working and I now have 40-50 fps (which for me is UBER OPTIMAL). I always get 11-13 fps if I unplug my laptop well.

    SOLUTION OF THE SHORT VERSION:
    Install windows 8 (x 64 in my case)

    NOTE: the drivers on the site are buggy for windows 7 x 64 / x 86. Date today: 8 October 2013.

  • HP 15-D103TX computer laptop problem: Windows does not detect the dedicated graphics card

    Hi all

    I recently bought a laptop HP 15 - D103TX , which is held responsible for Free on BACK. I have updated my Windows 8 operating system and have installed all the drivers from the HP website. The laptop has dedicated 2 GB Nvidia Geforce 820 M graphics card.

    But when I checked, I found that Windows displays the graphic memory dedicated only 0 MB.

    As you can see in the screenshot, it shows as 0MB dedicated graphics memory.

    Anyone can clear me, upward on this subject? Is it a driver problem, or what is Windows 8 going crazy.

    Thank you very much in advance!

    Kind regards

    Brahmnoor

    Okay, I found the solution. In fact, the Haswell Intel i5 processor that my 15 HP D103TX has also comes with an Intel 4600 GPU intregated. So when I do normal tasks, the GPU intregated works, so Windows does not display the NVIDIA GPU 820M, but when I play a game or doing intense graphics work, he switches to the NVIDIA one.

    In fact, it makes sense, because it preserves the battery of the laptop.

  • Inspiron 3737 - pass fron integrated to the dedicated graphics card

    Hello

    I got Dell Inspiron 3737 with integrated graphics card Intel 4000 and dedicated Radeon HD8670M graphics card.

    Several weeks ago, I discovered this laptop works only with integrated IntelHD4000 (Win7 x 64). I installed the drivers of the latest GPU to dell, but it's not not to solve the problem. I installed older drivers, but also, there is no problem.

    I decided to reinstall windows.  I installed Windows 7 x 64, all the drivers from the dell site in the order which they suggest. But laptop also only use IntelHD4000. In Device Manager shows two graphics GPU Intel HD Family and AMD Radeon HD8670M. Catalyst, AIDA64 and CPU - Z will find only Intel HD 4000. Reference Dell start diagnostic tools and Dell Online Diagnostics found no no problem (all tests was passed).

    I tried to contact the technical support of Dell and got the following response "what did you want us? You are no longer under warranty and it's your problem! ».

    If I understand correctly the video driver installation and switching between integrated and dedicated graphics are global problem. Solve someone has mentioned the problem and how?

  • Cannot use the dedicated graphics card

    Hello

    As already mentioned that my laptop will use only integrated hd 3000 graphics, while I have a 6770 m on board.

    I have good drivers for both (or I guess that since there is no warning in Device Manager).

    Whenver I try to play a game well, only the built-in graphics card is available and it doenst go while playing, because I get 20 fps on settings lowest playing while I could play most of the games with up to 60 images per second at the top.

    Catalyst Control Center also has a problem during installation because my hardware version no is not supported even if auto detection selected download I need.

    This is a common problem with computers laptops alienware as much as I found on the web, but they have all nvidia graphics cards.

    If it is of no help: I have a HP Pavilion dv6 6b50eb, my hardware id 6770 m is

    PCI (slash) VEN_1002 & DEV_6740 & SUBSYS_3388103C & REV_00

    If you are sure about the drivers (?) Check the BIOS configuration to see if any option on VGA as:

    Switchable Graphics > fixed or automatic

  • Aspire V3 - 571 G BSOD when using the dedicated graphics card

    Hey,.

    I just got my new laptop, but as the title suggests, whenever I try to run a program that uses the graphics card, it stutters a bit, before finally being BSOD'ing or saying "NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver display driver, Version 307.17 not responding and has successfully recovered."

    This happens even with own NVIDIA Control Panel program, where it gives you this small window of the NVIDIA logo rotating. I tried with Minecraft, just to make sure it wasn't this one program.

    Everyone has experienced this before or have any advice? Thank you very much in advance!

    PS: I would have presented a ticket of support on this issue, but it asks me to enter the date of purchase, but it keeps screaming at me that I need to enter "valid a date", even if I use the datePicker bit next to the entry field.

    I ended up sending the laptop in for repair, and apparently it was a faulty motherboard, so they changed it. Everything worked smoothly after that.

    When I tried to install Caffè/CUDA (used for Machine learning), my card (Geforce GT650M) dedicated graphics card driver has become corrupt (seen through the Console).

    Dedicated card random is more gets reported under 'report system' (probably due to the problem of driver).

    Attempts to restore have been hit and Miss so far.

    I downloaded the drivers from Nvidia web (WebDriver - 346.03.10f02.dmg, WebDriver - 346.03.10f01.dmg, WebDriver - 346.03.10 b 01 .dmg) but they have only worked / failed randomly when combined with CUDA drivers (cudadriver - 7.5.29 - macos.dmg) and toolboxes CUDA (cuda_8.0.29_mac.dmg and cuda_7.5.27_mac.dmg).

    Only the internal graphics card Intel Graphics 4000 is constantly working.

    I cleaned the system (by removing all traces of the nvidia drivers and drivers of coda) while that to reinstall these drivers in different combinations.

    Yet, the conclusion is that it is all the success and the miss.

    Sometimes it worked I could test samples CUDA.

    Other times, that it worked, but the laptop would freeze randomly.

    Then, he failed once again and returned to map internal Intel completely.

    It was suggested that I should be able to restore it by reinstalling ElCapitan

  • dedicated graphics card problem

    Hi all!

    I have a HP probook 4530 s and after 2 years of using the dedicated graphics card (ATI Radeon 7470) seems to have a problem. I was playing my game, which is a flash game based on chrome and suddenly the screen frozened. I use by default the ATI graphics card because the system supports switchable graphics. So, after this screen frozen, I turned off my laptop and after I turned once again he doesn't want to go through the screen of windows welcome. I went into safe mode, disabeled ati graphics card and after I restarted again, I could get properly into windows. A funny thing is that after that, I reinstalled windows and the first thing is to install the graphics driver. After clicking on restart my laptop frozened again in the Welcome to windows screen.

    Can anyone help me please with this problem?

    Thank you in advance.

    Try from the BIOS, there is something that you can uncheck it from the BIOS and it will work exclusively on the second card, of the processor.

    The thing is that I found the problem and it is verry annoing. I disassembled my laptop to renew the theat conductor paste and I saw that the old spent was melted by the heat by the graphics card and drained on certain components close to, and I know that this dough is a conductor of electricity now so bye bye dedicated graphics card.
