  Hello

  You should try to use the Toshiba graphics card driver as its use on the drivers from 3rd-party pages could lead to highest GPU temperature that would cause problems.

• Satellite X 200-213: occurs on the recent video games display objects

  Hello, first of all I'm sorry that I do not speak English very well then, perhaps, it will be difficult for you to understand me and for me to understand. Let's try ^^

  As the title says, I have problems with artifacts on my laptop X 200-213. It occurs only on "recent" video games such as Tomb Raider Legend, Oblivion, Prey...
  Textures are flashing, they can disapaer, strange parasites can be here too.
  Here's an example of what it can be, and is often worse:

  [Image 2 | http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/4056/artefact2bm8.jpg]

  Artifacts appears after a time of random game, only on the new levels of games, it does not occur if I stay on the same stage, I have to be originally a "loading screen" (I want you to understand me because I don't know how to say it ^^).

  I have never overvlocked nothing is very strange.
  This problem has occurred on the pre-installed nvidia drivers that have been installed when I bought the laptop. There are on the Toshiba official site and other drivers nvidia drivers too.

  I realized something: when drivers includes the Nvidia Control Panel, there are has artifacts, when it is not the case as on the pre-installed drivers or other non official as 163,14, it is not artifacts.

  I know I should use these drivers but more recent offers better performance and it is not normal: I want to be able to update my display drivers without artifacts.

  When I tried to see the temperatures, I find them so I don't know if it's an overheating problem.

  Please help me, I will be grateful.
  And sorry for this terrible English.

  Hello Florent

  I'm afraid there is nothing you can do. The graphics card is defective. Please contact the authorized Service partner as soon as possible. The addresses and telephone numbers, you will find under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads > find an ASP.

• Video games appear small on the screen

  Whenever I start any video game - it will not honor the mode setting full-screen. Never seen this on any other computer before. Is there some sort of special setting that I need to travel?

  Have you tried to check the display settings of your game? Maybe you can change the resolution there. Play several games like COD2, COD4 and the need for speed on friends Qosmio G30 I didn t notice something like that.

• Clock speed of the Radeon HD 4650 in the Satellite P300-23F

  Hi all!

  I am interested by the Satellite P300-23F because of its nice, these two drives huge CPU and - finally and above all - good price. But I can't estimate exactly its graphics performance, because I could not find information about the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 used in this book's exact clock speeds.
  Did someone already has a P300-23F? If you do, could you please read the core and the memory clocks the GPU with a tool such as the CCC or GPU - Z? Perhaps you have also information about the temperatures of the CPU and HARD drive and also on the performance of the HARD drive?

  Thank you...

  Hello

  To be honest I m P300 owner but not the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 is known as M96 ATI with DDR3 (1 GB) of graphics ram.
  I think that it s is not easy to say some details about the exact chip GPU clock speed because it of always different. It depends on the use of the laptop and the temperature.
  You must know that the performance of the GPU are controlled by the graphics driver and if the temperature increases to a critical level, that the pilot might slow down the chip so decreases the heat dissipation.

  The temperature of the processor and HARD drive depends on the use of the laptop too.
  If you run games high performance, then the temperature increases to a higher level and would be higher than the execution of only a few common tools such as MS Office Word for example.

  However maybe someone could put some values and details, it would be really interesting.

• Cannot install ANY video game on Windows 7 (and other problems) _

  No more than 5 MINUTES after starting my new desktop computer the first time, I started having these problems:

  (1) when I try to install a game, I get an error message that says "cannot continue the installation. SAMPLE.exe file missing. "Soon after, a message in the lower right corner will slide upward, saying 'virus Trojan in SAMPLE.exe. The file has been quarantined. When I disable the antivirus software, I can install the game but I can't run it. It hangs after 5 minutes, and then a box pop up appears and says "cannot find the file SAMPLE.exe.

  All the video games I've tried to install are compatible with windows 7.

  (2) when I try to make changes to programs or certain parameters, a box pop up appears and says "You must be logged in as Administrator", when I am logged on as administrator.

  (3) Windows 7 will reorganize randomly my desktop icons.

  (4) Windows Explorer starts that it self.

  (5) sometimes programs will not download to the location I specified. He decided to put it somewhere else.

  panicballoon,
  I agree with KSib, that having these types of problems right out of the box is ridiculous.  I recommend you contact the PC manufacturer for warranty support to get this corrected. Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

  Is this a common problem for toshiba computers?
  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  FibZ

  I don't think it's a general or common problem. I have the Satellite P500 with the NVIDIA card inside. Pre-installed driver is Toshiba 8.16.11.8829 driver version, and I have never notice one problem with display or graphics in general.

  I watch blu - ray movies, very often HD trailers on YouTube, play games (for the time Medal of honor, Black Ops) and everything works perfectly.

  What NVIDIA card is in your laptop and what display driver is installed?

• Do not type anything if I am in a video game

  Hello, since yesterday I have a very big problem, when I try to type something on Skype while a video game is running in the background, it does everything simply. There is a kind of huge latency that happens only on Skype, other software such as firefox or steam are not affected and work well.

  Skype works perfectly when no game does, even when I run games like counter strike source or Minecraft. He started bugging when I play games with huge graphics (heroes of the storm or marvel heroes).

  I have really no idea what to do about it, this problem is really weird because it happened without reason (I do not download anything), the games works extremely well, so there is no reason for Skype to slow down (only 3, 5 GB of my 8 GB of ram is used, and only 30% of the CPU is used when I play so it isn't bad). And I have tried everything, cleaning of the hard drive, reinstal windows... But nothing works :/

  So, basically, I can't type messages when I play video games because Skype has decided to slow down to a stranger really reason... If any of you had the same problem, could you tell me what is happening, please

  So, after messing around I seemed to have discovered to some extent what the problem is, Skype works like 32 x, and the games that appear to be the cause of the problem were x 64, after trying to run one of the games in x 32, Skype ran very well.

  If one of them is to run the x 32 version of the game you want to play, even if, another difficulty that I found to be more convenient was to go to your properties skype.exe and set the .exe to run in compatibility mode for windows XP (Service Pack 3). With this fix, I was able to run Skype as usual and continue to run the x 64 versions of games that used to give me problems with Skype.

  I hope this fix has the same success for you guys.

• Yoga clock speed 900

  Hello

  I'm looking in the "Performance" of the Task Manager tab and see that the CPU runs at ranging from 2.98 to 3.1 GHz clock speeds. Usage is not high, just the speed of the CPU. Y at - it a reason for this and can it be fixed so the speed decreases? I ask because I have not seen a computer constantly run at a clock speed near its value boosted. The minimum processor state is set to 5% in my power settings.

  I believe that the ONLY WAY to reduce the frequency is to go to the "balanced"... profile

• Yoga 11 s - maximum clock speed

  Maximum speed [0.80 GHz] listed in the Manager tasks you think it correct?

  I see that the processor is at 1.50 GHz up however the maximum clock speed says otherwise.

  Thoughts?

  

  Hi bredinger

  Yes a simple google on the issue 'Win8 task manager report incorrect clock speed' you will be discussion on the same issue.

  They have been using using another CPU monitor app

  They said in future updates should be able to solve this problem.

• How to stop the power management to change my clock speed?

  Greetings,

  I run a HP compaq nx6320 laptop.

  I noticed that sometimes, when the computer is unplugged, the clock speed of the processor is reduced. intuitively, this seems to be a technique of energy saving.

  Using the Intel processor identification utility, I get something like this:

  

  And I suffer notable sluggish performance for all applications.

  I know that laptops tend to conserve that unplugged while power, some for example dim the screen, but they allow the user to increase the lighting, although it would reduce the time the computer can work with batteries.

  I want something similar about the speed of the processor, I want to turn this feature off and power the computer at full speed while it is unplugged.

  In addition, this feature is errornous, I took the screenshot above, while my computer is running on the current! and do not know why the power management insists on reducing the clock speed.

  All this turns out be caused by overheating. I'm misleaded by the tip of the utility intel PID.

  The fan of my computer was blocked by the filter sponge, which is made of a material that is poor, so partially decomposed and clogged the fan.

• Hearts - speed up the game

  If the problem persists, use the tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.
  2. type the following command and press ENTER: sfc/scannow
  The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

• How to ONLY install directx 3 is the use of video games. Without having to install the latest version of directx?

  I have an old video game of cdrom for windows 95, 98, and a message asking me to click here and there to download directx 3A. I'm going to microsoft for this and only the latest version is available and this download does not work. Msg continues to be the same, even after a few tries.

  Windows 7 already comes with the latest version of DirectX installed. Have you tried to install the game in compatibility mode?

  Right click on the executable file / Installer-> properties and select the Compatibility tab. Click the check box before you run this program in compatibility mode for option, and then select Windows 95/98 from the drop-down list. then try to install the game using run as administrator.

  If this does not work, I suggest buy you an old copy of Windows 95 or 98 license off ebay, download for free SUN Virtual Box and install Windows 95 and 98, and run your game in there.
