  • Satellite L655-177 - freezes when playing online games

    Hello
    I bought this laptop about 5 months ago and since I'm doing that I had the same problem all the time. Tried a few things to do something, find some ideas on the internet but still nothing.

    So the problem is that when I start the game (Ragnarok Online for the most part) every 1-2 minutes I have 3 to 5 sec freeze, it is sometimes even 3-5 sec freeze every 15 seconds. I don't know what is the reason. The important thing is that this happens only in the game. When I use my laptop for something else like watching movies, internet, put in contact with friends and other stuff important nothing like that happens. No gel, it only happens when I play games. For most of these games 'online '. I don't have the same problem with CoD4 or NFS: Most Wanted, so as I said, it's probably that with the games online.

    1. it is not because of the internet connection, I have the router in the House, my friend play the same game all the time without these strange freezes, it have Windows XP.
    2. when I was with Windows XP, I didn't this problem, then, probably, the problem lies in Windows 7.
    3. Windows 7 Edition is Home Premium - 64 bit OS, 4 GB of ram (DDR3), Intel Core i3 CPU M 370 @ 2.40 GHz 2.40 GHz
    4 checked in the Device Manager and probably everything is up to date if she goes on the drivers.
    5. I read somewhere that some people solved the problem with the evolution of their 850Ghz to 800Ghz GPU clock speed, but I have no idea how doing this with Intel HD and cannot find information about it on the internet.

    If you need practical information about what anyone just say =) I hope someone is able to help me with this, it's irritating problem.

    Hi modzel1990,

    If you didn t have this problem on Windows XP it seems to be a driver problem or software I think that you have installed Windows 7 recovery disk Toshiba or is it your own installation?

    Usually, if you install Windows recovery disk Toshiba you have the box settings and these settings and drivers are pre-tested by Toshiba. This means that the configuration of the software is ok and it of hardware or incompatible game problem

    Do you have updated version of DirectX?
    Are you using the Windows Performance high power plan?
    Have you checked whether these games online is compatible with Intel graphics card?

    Generally speaking the clock of the graphics card can t be replaced. Everything is done automatically and if you would even change the clock of the CPU or graphics card you would lose the guarantee

  • Satego X 200 - 21u + Win7: freeze all playing a game for about 20 seconds

    Hello

    installed win7 a few weeks ago and I need help.

    as long as I have used default displays the drivers of toshiba (~ 1 year) windows7 tends to freeze while playing a game for about 20 seconds, and everything goes normal again.

    After searching the internal pool, I discovered that most recent nvidia driver could solve this problem, so I downloaded the latest drivers for your laptop from there. now windows freezes over, but rather a huge amount of pixels displayed for fractions of seconds. could someone help me? is it possible that toshiba will bring display drivers compatible win7?

    What are the changes accurate toshiba brings to their drivers? I cannot repeat this manual?

    * edit *.

    SRY for the bad language :).

    using the version of 32-bit win7

    Hi mate,

    The point is that you should only use the Toshiba display drivers directly because are pre-tested on the on the laptop. Other drivers don't have overheating protection, which means that you can display errors and damage to the graphics card. So I advise to use Toshiba display drivers.

    I don t know the difference between display drivers, you should ask this Toshiba directly and not here in the forum of the user.

    Maybe there is another solution for your problem like cleaning your laptop with a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.

  • Cannot access any site to play online games

    Hi to anyone who can help me with this.  I have Windows XP and downloaded IE 8 some time ago.  Never had any problems until about two weeks ago.  Every time I have access to MSN GAMES, GAMES YAHOO, 'what' that is the games and try to play online, my computer completely freezes... I mean completely and it hangs forever.  Not even doing Ctrl + alt + delete to close the program.  I have to manually turn off the computer and boot from fees.  I get no error message, nothing... just a little noise beep (not like a pop-up), then the big freeze.  I tried to play on the web games on my second computer and the same thing is happening EXCEPT, I have now the message on IE shutting and something to do with the DEP (Data Execution Prevention).  I checked the Advanced tab in the system but can not change a thing.  It's so frustrating because it just started to happen.  I even uninstalled and reinstalled IE 8, went through all the procedures I can think and basically nothing changes.  Can someone please help?  Thank you.

    For the purposes of troubleshooting, I suggest to test websites on another browser to see if the problem is directly related to something in Internet Explorer, or elsewhere.

    This gives a test:

    1. go on http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/
    2. click on download, click on "Run" and follow the instructions to install
    3. after installation, restart the system and try to access these Web sites

  • Re: Cannot use arrow keys when playing flash games

    Someone had this problem? The arrow keys on my keyboard do not work when I play flash games. Have downloaded the latest version of adobe, but not luck. Is it sounds like a hardware problem? What is the best way to thing to work around this problem?

    Thanks for any response.

    Post edited by: terrypal

    For me it has nothing to do with a malfunction of the equipment. If you can use the arrow keys in Windows or any application there absolutely no problem with the keyboard or something similar.

    Maybe is this result of the issue of the restriction of game control.

    ·        You did changes to the computer before this problem started?

    However, you can try to optimize the settings of Internet Explorer on your computer and check if the problem is resolved. Access the link below and follow the steps to optimize Internet Explorer.

  • Black screen when playing the games

    I play several different types of games on my computer and just recently, I noticed that when I attempet to Alt + Tab to go to my office or a different window, I get stuck in a black screen with only the mouse showing sometimes. This came only in the last week and went with all the games that I played. I managed to make Ctrl + Alt + Delete but can only solve by making the system to reboot. All playing the games themselves, I don't encounter any problem, but only when I try to go to a different window that already passed.

    Help?

    Well, nothing has really changed, you can try the system restore and restore a week ago and see if it solves your problem.
