Question about Directdraw on Satellite P100-429 (pspa3e)

When I try and play a game on the phone he said he "could not initialize graphics. Make sure that the video device and driver are compatible with direct sampling. »

Are there any drivers out there? I think that the graphics card to an nvidia geforce 7600 128 MB.

When I use the website of nvidia drivers do not seem to work with the laptop!

Hello

Please check if DirectX has been installed on the laptop.
As far as I remember the most recent version is 9.0 C.

After installing DirectX, please start the application with the dxdiag command. Then the DirectX must begin and there you can activate the Directdraw acceleration.

  • Satellite P100 - 429 (PSPA3E) memory upgrade to 4 GB

    I have 2 GB of Ram at the moment and would like to 4 GB is possible, accept the Bios and I run Windows Vitsa Home Edition.

    Hello

    I googled a bit and found some information s
    It seems that the Satellite P100-429 supports the 4 GB of RAM.
    The Intel® 945 PM Express chipset, which is installed in this notebook supports 4 GB to 400, 533 and 667 MHz

    So, theoretically, you might be able to pass to 4 GB of RAM.

    But note; If you are using Vista 32-bit, then the OS will see only 3.2 GB

    To get full access 4 GB of RAM, you will need the 64-bit Windows OS.

  • Question about video drivers Satellite P100-257

    Hello.
    Question about video driver. Version 14.25... Works (tells... 945 GM chipset); 14.27--works but with ocassional problems (tells... 945GM/GU); version 14,29... (said 945GM/GU) - does not work at all - black screen, but you can hear sounds which tells that XP does all right.

    Why that? And what is GU? Pilot info says it is for 945GM, pilot says he's for 945GM/GU.

    All kinds of three said they are for Mobile Intel 945 GM Express chipset. Who initially my machine have said there. In section "video card" my machine said no Intel - some Calg... - don't remember exactly the name.
    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    As much as I know Satellite P100-257 supports the graphics card Mobile Intel 945GM. The code name of Intel's GM Calistoga
    This is not the same thing as the chipset Intel 945GM/GU. Both are different and so the graphics drivers are not totally compatible!

    The Intel page provides some interesting info on these chipsets:
    Mobile Intel Express Chipset 945GM

    Unfortunately, I have not found anything on the 945GM/GU.

  • Bad screen refresh rate shown under Vista - Satellite P100-429

    Hello

    I have a Satellite P100-429. There are three weak, I install Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, but now the highest of screen refresh rate is 60 Hz. I tried to download the latest drivers for the graphics card, but this will not work and the computer also says that the monitor is called generic PNP.

    Before Vista has a 100 Hz screen refresh rate and monitor had his screen Toshiba TruBrite WXGA + TFT of own name I tried looking for drivers for the monitor but without success, someone can help me pretty please, I get headaches for the low screen refresh rate.

    Hello

    Have you installed the right graphics card driver?
    Immediately after installation of Vista, the operating system uses Microsoft's own common graphics driver.
    If you want to use additional graphics options, you need to install the compatible graphics card driver.

    But I want to clarify something. The LCD or TFT screens give excellent quality and resolution at 60 Hz.
    the Refresh on TFT rate simply won't say the same thing about monitors CRT.
    Response time, brightness of the Image and the contrast of the Image are more important for a TFT or LCD monitor like the refresh rate.

    Performance display and the quality isn't worst if it run on 60 Hz
    Therefore, I see no reason to change the refresh rate of 100 Hz

  • Satellite P100 - 429 LAN wireless has stopped working

    I had a satellite P100-429 during about three weeks, the wireless card was working fine until yesterday. Today I turned on the laptop, but I can't connect to my access point.

    In fact the laptop can now find any wireless network at all.

    Can anyone help?

    Have you checked the common things like a status of Wlan card in the device, the Wlan router configuration manager, etc...?
    Also check if the Wlan card switch is set to on. Further, you can try to fix the WiFi connection.
    To do something like that, he must go to "network connections", right click on the WiFi connection and choose repair.

    Do you use 3rd party WLan configuration software? If so, please check if the windows have configuration option WLan has not been activated.

  • GPU fans to work on Satellite P100-429 (Nvidia) on Linux

    Hello

    I have a P100-429... and managed to get the GPU fan to work. As most of you probably know, we edit the DSDT in order to get its work under Linux (and these laptops). There, another fix that also allows the GPU fan work. Mine seems to be on low-speed all the time and the Nvidia display configuration application now the temp to be less than 50 c most of the time, so before he went up to 75 or more.

  • Satellite P100-429: Intel Wireless Wifi Link 4965agn card is not compatible?

    Hey guys

    I have a Satellite P100-429 with a 3965abg to intel, I have a few router purchased months ago Netgear wnr834b n project, then think, it is high time, I upgraded my internal adapter.

    I wanted to know if the Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN adapter would fit that is a right with the 3965 swap, as it says it's connection is Mini PCIe card * and I have no idea if it would fit?

    Hello

    Yes, she should go, because the W-LAN-mini-card slot is a PCI-Express, so you'll just have to swap the cards. But be careful with the antenna connections, if you bend them too so they break very quickly and then there is NO WAY back and you will pay for the exchange of
    the whole cover, where are the antennas of screen.

    Best is to contact a local service partner if they exchanged, you don t therefore the risk for the guarantee void if you do something 'not very good' on your machine. :)

  • Satellite P100-429: how to burn on DVD?

    Got a Satellite P100 429 he will write DVDs? He says, but I can't seem to do it (without recorder) is all I get.
    If it can HOW? (driving me crazy)

    Hello

    I imagine that you replace didn t drive of the laptop.
    Many laptops come with a different hardware configuration. This means that as different readers might be installed in the laptop. But if you bought the laptop with the DVD burner I see not why the reader should not burn the DVD.

    What burning software do you use? I use Nero. It's great and easy to use.
    I advise to use it for burning media. It supports CDs and DVDs

  • Satellite P100-429 does support the 5-in-1 card reader?

    IM wanting to buy a new laptop computer and is came through the "Toshiba Satellite P100-429'." It's the portable perfect! However, when I searched the internet for a detailed technical specification, I found that on pixmania.co.uk he states that there is no memory card reader:

    http://www.Pixmania.co.UK/UK/UK/462038/art/Toshiba/Satellite-P100-429.html

    Still other sites, he says that there is a 5-in-1 including Toshiba card reader themselves. It is therefore possible to have the same laptop model but with a different specification? or is it a typo in the site of pixmania? Thank you

    > is it possible to have the same laptop model but with a different technique
    Of course, many laptops in the same series were delivered with different hardware specifications it is nothing unusual.

    For example, the dvi video port, express card slot or the married media card slot are available on some models.
    I would trust the Web from Toshiba site and this model should support housing ExpressCard and a PCMCIA Type II slot.
    The slot SD, Compact Flash Card slot card and smart card reader are not available on this model

  • Satellite P100-429: sharp sound appears when 3rd device is connected

    I have a satellite P100-429 with a Conexant internal sound card.
    My problem is when I attach to any other electric audio device to record or play to, a high-pitched noise can be heard on the two pieces of equipment.

    When the power of the laptop is removed and it works on battery power, only the noise disappears as soon as the power is reconnected the noise returns

    I checked the section driver Toshiba and there is an available (V3.11.0.51) driver update that resolves this problem.
    Note: Before installing the audio driver updated to at least the BIOS version 2.10 or higher must be installed on the laptop.

    How to install the Sound Driver (V3.0.51):
    1. download the driver from the website.
    2 unzip the file.
    3. double-click on the "setup.exe."
    Shortly after, the following window appears:
    4. click on 'OK '.
    5. click on 'OK '.
    The audio driver is installed

    Hello

    I n t have experience with these tools of recovery of the BIOS because I think it s a little too risky. There is no official way to recover a BIOS and I don t want to destroy the whole ROM module.

    In my opinion if a BIOS update n t successful, you should go to an authorized service provider. Contact a technician for laptop and explain your situation. The technician can try to reflash it and they have more experience. I think that this should t be a problem to connect with one. ;)

    Good luck!
