Question about a Satellite P200-13z graphics card upgrade

Can I upgrade the graphics card on my Satellite P200-13z? What are my different options and the corresponding prices?

Only, I built in 3D accelerator card intel.

Hello

These issues have been several times here in the Toshiba forum and there is only one answer.
It s not possible to update the graphics card on any laptops!

The GPU is mostly welded and mounted on the motherboard and it of impossible to remove it!

You ask for options? Well, I read on maps external graphics for laptops, but in my opinion, this isn't a real option and don t think that the performance of this graphics card would be much better that your graphics card internal laptop P200

    Is there a hardware switch to inactivate the wireless network components?
    Is it possible to add physical memory to the dedicated graphics card?

    I know you can Filch system memory to increase the available for graphics operations, but is it more logical to add system memory or add graphics memory.

    What is the equipment for the memory locations system config factory base with 2 GB of RAM? There are 4 slots or 2? Are they all filled?

    How is it difficult to "downgrade" to XP machine? Will there be XP drivers available for all components?

    Hello

    I m P200 not owner, but I'll try to answer your questions.

    > Is there a hardware switch (or key combination) to disable the touchpad?
    Yes, the FN + F9 key combination should enable and disable the touchpad!

    > Is it an indicator of the State of the touchpad?
    Well, in the taskbar you should get a notification icon if the touchpad has been disabled

    > Is there a hardware switch to inactivate the wireless network components?
    Yes, the WLan switch is available on laptop computers (probably on the front).

    > Is it possible to add physical memory to the dedicated graphics card?
    No, the graphics card supports an its own local cache. Graphics cards support also hyper memory. This memory hyper depends on the amount of main memory. Total video memory is the sum of the local cache and Hyper memory.
    But once again; physical memory cannot be added.

    > What is the load out for the locations of system memory in config factory base with 2 GB of RAM? There are 4 slots or 2? Are they all filled?
    There are 2 slots of memory and the laptop has been delivered with 2x1024Mo modules.
    The laptop supports 4 GB max memory, but as much as I know Windows 32 bit does recognize only 3.02 GB due to the limitation of the 32 bit OS!

    > How is it hard to "downgrade" to XP machine? Will there be XP drivers available for all components?
    It of not difficult to downgrade the laptop to the XP operating system.

  • Satellite Pro 6100 Graphics Card upgrade/replacement

    I have a Satellite Pro 6100 p4 - m 2.0 30 GB and the graphics card is dead. I love this laptop.

    He had a NVidia GeForce4 420 Go 16 MB card

    I can replace it with a GeForce4 420 Go 32 MB of the same model.

    Is there something more powerful on the market that works without any problem for the 6100? That is to say. GeForce4 440 Go 64 MB?

    See you soon

    Usually didn t of toshiba offers an update of the separate graphics card but he had different graphics cards installed in your computer, and, THEORETICALLY, you can use each of these cards in your machine. I can't promise it but they should all work in this machine.

    The problem is to disassemble the machine completely and if you do something wrong then you know that it is useless to come back because your machine is no longer in warranty. It would be wise to give the machine a technician to exchange the graphics card.

    Unfortunately, I can't tell you what graphics cards in your machine or which partnumbers are needed. In this case you´re on your own.

    Good luck

    Hey Buddy,

    Upgrading the graphics card is not possible because it s fixed/soldered to the motherboard. See also this article and other threads here in the forum:

  • Satellite P200 lost graphic card

    Well, it was a fun day, simply unplug the p200 and moved to another room, plug it in again and nothing!
    No lights or anything like that.

    So yes, this happened while nothing has been activated.
    So I took to remove the many screws holding the P200 together (there are many) finally getting to the motherboard, looking everywhere for a problem and eventually found a small chip that has had better days.

    A small piece take down the entire computer. repair man say a replacement chip is not available but will be track down a new card to replace it.

    The problem occurred before, I'd get a conflict started when the laptop would try feed the rest of the system and give me a BSOD then restart and go for the repair of the system. (Sometimes, it would sometimes happen that he would not do that for a while) Who has never done anything because the problem was not where this service has been verified, however it may help in preventing a fault occurring, yet another, but this has happened only on connect the laptop do not push the power button.

    A Word to the interview even though he never seemed to be an accumulation of dust on the outside was inside the cooling fins. Get something to blow through the fins, he won't go into the computer on the back in the case fan it self and should fall to the bottom.

    Beside that it has been a good performer and it does not mount the heat so a cooling block is also a must

    Hi gazza.

    Your GPU / part of the motherboard could not what to say. as far as I know it of not possible to use another chip.
    In most cases need to replace the motherboard and it is an expensive procedure.

    Don t know what a Board that you expect from the forum, but in my opinion is the laptop will be set by a technician service or its time for a new laptop.

  • Graphic problem on Satellite P200-13Z

    Hello

    Satellite P200-13z running 32-bit vista - intel graphics software displays + does not work because of insufficient resources + other checks indicate that the chip has no allocated memory.
    Machine runs Ok'ish on the LCD screen in mode VGA base but of course, for many programs, it is no good.

    Version 1.7, nothing in there to allocate memory for the graphics chip - as in other systems with built-in BIOS system memory for graphics.

    System has 1 GB of ram - updated 2GB with no difference.

    When I bought the laptop H/d has been deleted for reasons of safety, replaced by the new HD & reinstalled vista from a recovery P200D disk then download specific files for this machine from the Download Center, am I missing a file important?

    How do I allocate memory of the chip or do I have a defective chip / / cpu / / mb or other?

    You can not install image of P200D on P200. Both models have completely different hardware platforms. Images of recovery are individual and model specific images.
    If you want to play a little bit and test if you get it working it's Ok, but you also expect that some problems will occur.
    All with images is not so simply as you think.
    Toshiba has designed images for the use of certain models only. It will be too easy to buy a laptop and use some images on different specifications.
    I mean you pay a license and install on 10 laptops. You understand what I mean?

    If you do not have original disk recovery facilities use bare BONES Setup with disk Microsoft facilities and subsequently install all necessary drivers, tools and utilities download page following the link you have posted here. You will see that everything will work well.

  • Why did NVIDIA driver installed on Satellite P200-13Z?

    This might be a bit a thick question but can someone tell me why when I go to change program/uninstalling, I have a program
    NVIDIA driver does it say I or you can get it if so how?

    My graphic is Intel
    I have series Satellite P200-13Z

    Hello

    I agree with Garrett. Recovery image is obviously designed with different display drivers and can be used on the same model laptop but with different graphics adapter.
    I'm sure that you can remove this preinstalled software from NVIDIA.

    Anyway, this does not permanently affect stability and performance of the laptop.

  • Network drivers required for Satellite P200 13z PSPB0 Win XP wireless

    Hi guys,.

    There was vista home installed on Toshiba satellite P200-13z (PSPB0). I made mistake by installing vista first hard disk half and then installed xp pro on the rest of the hard drive. Now my phone won't show me dual boot menu

    On my C - Vista drive

    On my drive D - XP

    When I start my laptop, it just goes straight path to XP, so I'm not able to choose vista on my laptop even, it's there.

    XP took the other driver except them Chicony usb 2.0 cam, PCI Device, video controller and the network driver

    I looked on the download site of Toshiba and only able to find Realtek RTL8139/810 x player Lan, which I installed it, but still, my wireless network does not.

    Now I don't know what network driver I required to connect to internet through wireless (Wi - Fi) for my XP operating system

    ADV me please this as other drivers I need to download and the place where, so I can connect to internet with wifi.

    .

    > When I start my laptop, it just goes straight path to XP, so I'm not able to choose vista on my laptop even, it's there.

    I had the same problem after installing Win XP on my laptop.
    The fact is that Win XP destroyed the Vista Boot Manager and so you can not choose the Vista operating system.
    But you can fix it using the MS Vista disc (not recovery disc). Simply start the Vista disc and choose the repair option.
    This will solve this problem.

    But after that you will not be able to start Win XP.
    The solution; go to Vista, install freetool called EasyBCD and include the Win XP operating system and partition for the Vista Boot Manager.
    That helped to me.

    Regarding the WiFi network:
    The laptop uses the ATHEROS 802. 11B / G WLan card.
    See this page:

    Hope I could help you

  • Satellite P200-13Z - upgrade the hard drive - can I use SATA II hard drives?

    I have a Satellite P200-13Z with simple standard Fujitsu 120 GB SATA hard drive. I want to change this to a RPM SATA II 250 GB Western Digital 7200 RPM drive. This interface SATA laptop does support SATA II? Thank you very much!

    Not your portable computer does not support SATA II.

    However, you can buy the SATA II hard drive and put it in your laptop. Only way to get it going is to restrict the new speed of SATA HDD, I accelerate. To do this is to introduce a jumper on the drive to restrict it to SATA I speeds up. Once it's done put in your laptop and viola, it works.

    Good luck, but I would like to get a toshiba technician to install it if its under warranty. It's for your own good, so you don't turn your laptop into a boat anchor.

  • Satellite 1900-303: graphics card update

    My standard graphics card is 32 MB. Is it possible to update?

  • The graphics card upgrade issues...

    I recently bought this graphics card: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=5660536&sku=A271-5774

    Also, I advanced and bought this power supply: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3276573

    I own a HP Pavilion a6414 and this is my first video/graphics card upgrade.  I did a good bit of research and I know that I have the PCI E x 16 appropriate for the card slot and the power SUPPLY 650 Watt PSU to insert in the ATX case. I measure the UAP present btw.  I'm a little worried about the upgrade of the power supply, because I read somewhere (I think it's here on this forum) that some HP tech rep said a person who upgrade the power supply could not be performed on the a6414, but I don't see why not.

    My other concern is about the speed of the processor to the graphics card and possibly voltage problems, but I think the power SUPPLY Ultra PSU will be fine.  Either that it is my first time to play with the graphics card and PSU, I'm looking for advice on the compatibility between these three components, i.e. the model, the card and the power supply.  Any input will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance...

    I installed everything today and it works like a charm.  I had read so much about the HD 5770 not recognized by HPs and the test of the power supply, but everything worked so far.  I bought a LG LED 20 "monitor today as well, and everything looks great.  Thanks for all the advice guys...  The links you provided helped with Dave BIOS, thanks.

  • HP ProBook 4445 s processor and graphics card upgrade

    Hello

    I need to have my CPU and graphics card upgraded to the requirements below please add link/s that will help me

    Processor
    I need to improve my processor 1.90 GHz to 4 GHz (at least 2.66 GHz). Then please add a link/s to this processor/s that I can use to upgrade my laptop to 2.66 GHz at least, or reach 4 Ghz.

    Video card
    I also need to improve my video card from the AMD Radeon HD 7640 G to a DirectX 11 with 2 GB of video ram (at least 1 GB of video ram). Please add link/s on what card video/s who reach the requirements I need.

    Thank you

    Here's the problem with that:

    Above are your graphics options for laptop. If yours is 1.9 ghz it cannot the A8, which is the best CPU and GPU option available. The video is part of the processor. There is just no way for you to improve the graphics capabilities of this laptop. It may seem like the A-6 is better because it works to 2.7 ghz, but there only 2 hearts: you have 4. And the 7520 graphics are lower than what you have. That's what you try to do? There is not too many computers that reach 4 ghz, not to mention a laptop.

  • Satellite L505-111 graphics card question.

    Hello world

    It is somewhat a noobish question but I'm kinda new to laptops. I bought this laptop Satellite L505-111, and in the specs it says I have ATI mobility Radeon 4650 in the form of graphics card. In any case, it was the main reason I bought the laptop. But when I look at windows (I have Windows 7 64 bit version) care. or through PC Wizard, it tells me I have ATI Mobility radeon 4600 series. Can you tell me if it is ok or why it shows me 4600 series and not of 4650.

    Hey Buddy,

    Don t you worry about this, everything is ok with your laptop.

    ATI Mobility 4600 series means that all the cards in this series, e. g. 4650 (which you have), 4670 or 4630, etc..

    On my desktop it s the same. Here, I have Radeon 4870, but the pilot shows only 4800 series. ;)
