• Satellite A300 - I need new graphics drivers for games

  I have the Satellite A300 and the graphics drivers are so old; round a year or two.
  ATI got 9.3 and release tomorrow 9.4.

  I can t use them because ATi say it is Toshiba s responsibility to make them for laptops. S Toshiba drivers are a year old, so that a customer can do now?

  Some games like WOW sometimes crashes and it's graphics card problem.
  Doesn't that I paid for support or I got the satellite with full support?

  Just wanted to know if the next time I'll get a laptop among other things choose manufactures

  Why will you need new drivers?
  I think that WOW (World of Warcraft?) is not the most recent game and older drivers should also work for this.
  So do you need a new driver display for what games?

  A few problems in games could be resolved with a patch. Did you check that?

• Satellite A300 - Graphics Driver update needed

  Hello

  I am writing this hoping someone from Toshiba will be able to help me to find and update for laptop Satellite A300, short model: PSAJ4E.
  I am running Windows 7 (64 bit) and Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) on another partition.

  I noticed I was encountering problems more often because of the graphics card is not not to date.
  I am looking for an update for the ATI Radeon HD 3650 series.
  I checked the AMD for and to update, but it seems that most cell phone manufacturers do not want to distribute updates. They had however an update for the ATI Radeon HD 3xxx series in December 2010, but the following comment wrote:

  Following books are not compatible with this version: *.

  All laptops launched after this version of the driver
  Portable computers compatible switchable graphics card using Intel® chipsets.
  * _Toshiba® portable (please contact the laptop OEM for support of the drivers for these books) _ *.
  Sony VAIO® Laptops (please contact the laptop OEM for support of the drivers for these laptops)
  Notebooks from Panasonic® (please contact the laptop OEM for support of the drivers for these laptops)

  This comment is in the following link: [AMD | http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/AMDCatalyst1012ReleaseNotes.aspx]

  And before someone sent it to me in the updated drivers from Toshiba on the following link: [Toshiba | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory = 2 & selFamily = 2 & selSeries = 153 & selProduct = 781 & selSho rtMod = 697 & language = 13 & selOS = 30 & selType = all & yearupl = DST & monthupload = & dayupload = & useDate = null & mode = all Machines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = all & selectedLanguage = 13 & type = all & page = 1 & ID = 68813 & DISO = 30 & driverLanguage = 42]

  I checked and the update on the Toshiba site is the previous update... it has the * version 8.634.1 * and AMD is at version * _8.801_* with their AMD Catalyst 10.12 software suite.

  I know laptops are not updates as much as a normal desktop pc, but it would be nice to receive updates that came out for the products that we bought.

  If possible could someone direct me, so that I can get the driver for Windows and Ubuntu?

  Kind regards

  Marc

  > I checked AMD for and to update but it seems that most cell phone manufacturers do not want to distribute updates...
  Do you know why?

  For example, I have the Satellite A300 PSAG8E and use it with Windows XP Home edition and Win7 32-bit dual boot and everything works perfectly.

• Satellite Pro M30 - NVIDIA graphics controller problem

  Hello everyone

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M30 with a Nvidia GeForce FX graphics controller. ([Image of the motherboard | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC3.jpg])

  My problem is when I turn on the PC and wait a few seconds red and white vertical stripes begins to appear on the LCD and it cannot go after the BIOS password screen. I can type the BIOS password but when I hit OK or button that ENTER the laptop freezes. ([See image 2 | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC2.jpg])

  In very rare occasions where the laptop was turned off for a long time, I listen to him on and he could overcome the BIOS password screen but freezes after a while: ([see Image 3 | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC1.jpg])

  I plugged it to an external monitor and nothing has changed.
  I removed the inverter (responsible for the lightning of the LCD screen) and the problem is still there.

  Always to blame the graphics chip from NVIDIA.
  I read here that it is not possible to replace them because they are soldered to the motherboard. But I want to, where can I get a laptop NVIDIA graphics chip. They sell somewhere?
  I have a friend who works in an electronics manufacturing company (SAGEM) and told me that they have the tools needed to replace any piece on any Board of Directors.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Hello, my friend

  I agree with you. It must be a faulty graphics card. I put t believe you can buy a graphics chip separately but you can buy mainboard used laptop on eBay. In my view, Exchange Board is no problem for you.

• Satellite A300-146 - cannot play games with graphics

  I have Toshiba Satellite A300-146, model No.: PSAJ0E, 1 GB of RAM, Intel Dual core 1.87 processor, chipset Mobile Intel (r) 965 family.

  I can play some games like hitman silent of assasin on fullscreen and with graphics.

  But the problem is that a game could not open correctly IE after you open the game, he becomes 16-bit or not graphicsless. I tried these games = need for speed - pursuit and need for speed - undercover, the same problem occurs. I tried in windows XP and Vista.

  We all know Roadrash. I played this game in computer III pentium no value correctly... but I can not play in my laptop...

  Please help me to recover from this problem with the graphics.

  Sul

  Hello!

  Check the system requirements for the game. Satellite A300 is not a high-end gaming laptop and maybe some new games couldn't work on this laptop.

  Maybe you need to reinstall your laptop with the Toshiba recovery disc. I put t have another idea so try and post your result.

  Good bye

• Question of graphics 3D Satellite A300-23d

  I bought a Satellite A300-23d about 4 weeks ago. I use my laptop for graphics and the game. I used it with no problems at all during the first 2 weeks. But later, during the game Anno 1404 suddenly some scattered polygons and textures purpleish appeared. I thought it is the result of the game. But I started to see these artifacts in all games. Now, I can't yet play 3D games on my pc. After you start a game, I see a yellow-red-purple checkered kind on my screen and polygons get spiky.

  It looks like a hardware malfunction. Because I tried the update of drivers and hard drive recovery. It is getting worse day after day. Windows works perfectly fine (except that I got approximately 4 BSOD) but I can't play 3D games! What can I do? The only solution I think it gives for repair. I get the objects even when you play with powerplay (underclocked). It is not a heat problem. And if you ask, I'm not overclocking my laptop. With the help of stock parameters.

  Hello

  BSOD is a sign of hardware or software problem and eventually it s related to the GPU question
  If the new OS didn't install help, I'd recommend contacting the guys of ASP.

  Good luck

• Satellite A300 - overheating graphics card

  Hello.

  My Satellite A300 got recently repaired from the Toshiba official represent in my hometown of Portugal. The problem was overheating, as usual. They understood the problem, it was dust and the radiator was malfuncion. They have changed the radiator and I paid 184,5 as a repair bill. When I got home, the problem still remained, and it seems worse.

  When I start a game, like world of warcraft, for example, the graphics card will of constant 50 degrees to 100 to like 10 seconds, and then the laptop stops.
  Someone could point me in the right direction and could they be scamming?

  I mean, I paid to solve the overheating problem, but they have not solved. Next Monday, I'll see what they had to say. Should I pay for another repair (repair minimum is 80, even if anything needs to be repaired).

  PS: Just in case where, is my graphics: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650.

  PS2: Sorry for the bad English, I'm Portuguese :)
  Thanks for reading this.

  Hello

  Theoretically it could also be a software problem if the laptop is overheating. I had the same problem because I installed display drivers not Toshiba and they had different thermal management so the laptop was overheating. I removed this display driver and installed the new Toshiba display driver and the problem was gone, because these drivers are designed and pre-tested by Toshiba.

  Otherwise I would also contact the ASP and check what they say. ;)

• Satellite A300-148 how to increase the size of the graphics memory?

  Hello..

  I have satellite a300-148, I update my laptop RAM from 1 to 2 GB but the VRAM is always 128 MB. and in the toshiba site write this:

  ((Graphics Adapter:))
  Manufacturer: Intel
  type: Intel® GMA X 3100
  memory: up to 358 MB total graphics memory available with 2 GB of system memory
  memory type: shared))

  But my laptop no graphics card (intel GMA X 3100) is (mobile intel 965) how can I solve this problem?
  There are different between the two adapters? How to increase my laptop memory graphic size?

  Please help me...
  thanx

  Hello

  > How can I solve this problem?
  Problem? What is the problem?

  Take a look here on this page of the Toshiba hardware specification:
  [Satellite A300-148 | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 150445]

  Laptop supports the Intel® GM965 Express chipset but the graphics chip is Intel® GMA X 3100
  As you can see the type of memory is shared
  What does that mean?
  This means that this graphics card shares memory with the main memory. Everything is controlled automatically by the graphics driver.
  If the memory of the graphics card is required then graphic driver would assign memory automatically to GPU.

  I hope this helps...

• At a satellite A300 - 1 DG a MXM graphics module?

  Hello

  does anyone know if the satellite A300 - 1 DG has an MXM graphics module?
  My laptop is broken, and I think it's the graphics card.

  If the laptop has no MXM graphics module a repair will probably be expansive.

  > is - anyone know if the satellite A300 - 1 DG has an MXM graphics module?
  No, as I know the MXM interface is not available if you can't upgrade the internal graphics card.
  Especially the GPU is soldered and part of the motherboard

• Bad graphics on Satellite A300

  Hi all

  I have the Satellite A300 that starts very well. Once on the desktop it freezes and then the graphics develop green blocks and lines on the screen
  I think he has a bad GPU.

  Is - fixable? Owner does not want to spend a lot of money because it is more than 3 years.

  Thank you

  I also think that this graphics card is defective. To be sure, you can give it a last try and connect to this laptop with external monitor and check if the same thing will happen again.

  Of course, it is repairable but the whole motherboard must be exchanged and it is the most expensive material part.
  If the owner doesn't want to spend a lot of money best it sells on eBay and buy new notebook.

  Otherwise, you can check if you can find some used mainboard and only exchange it.

  Hello

  Please read here http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=13

  As you can see, Cpu and Gpu upgrade is not a good idea. Even if your motherboard can handle it but the Bios is not pre-tested for her. In any case, you must contact the Asp (SAV), they can tell exactly whether it is supported or not.
