Re: Satellite L500-19Z - how to increase the performance of the game?

Hey

Basically, I have a Toshiba Satellite L500-19z, with chipsets Intel Series 4 express. I know this isn't a particularly good game, but surely the performance of game should be reasonable?

I get 80% of the time lag - while on my old laptop (which costs no more than £200) I could play World of Warcraft on it no problem (I played the Sims3 on this laptop and had very few problems. I'm playing Dragon Age, but it is almost impossible.) My laptop is not more than 8 months old.

I just want to know if there is a way to increase the performance of the game? I thought that maybe to connect my laptop to a PC Tower, but that could lead to the worst game performance, so I said.
I'm sure I can't replace the graphics card, I've updated my drivers, defragment disks and so on.

Any help is really appreciated, thanks in advance.

Hello

Is there anything to do to increase game performance. It depends on the graphics card and Intel cards are not designed for games, they are a good choice for mobile use because they don t need a lot of power.
In addition, the peut t graphics card be exchanged, s thereby.

It s always depending on the game that you can play. Therefore, check the system requirements of all the games you want to play and if your graphics card is supported. Not all games support all graphics cards.

You must also use low graphics settings in each game. You can use the parameters of t.

For example on my Satellite U400, possessing the same Intel graphics card, I can play Half Life 2 which has already 5 years but always low medium graphics settings.

    I am new to computers and laptops and that you just bought the Toshiba Satellite L500-1WG. I was told, in the shop, he has an internal modem?

    What should I do to activiate/get connected to the internet? Do I need an external modem wired or wireless as well? No difficult language or abbreviations please, I am a total novice with very limited on this subject knowledge. Have only to learn how to start and run the basic set up.

    HEY buddy,

    > Told me, in the shop, he has an internal modem?
    It seems that this shop doesn't know what they are selling or they wanted kid a small round little

    It turns out satellite L500 is not equipped with modem and it doesn t have a modem (RJ12) port.

    So if you want to use the modem connection, you must purchase an external. But for now he s not advised to use a modem, the majority of the pages are not designed for modem more.

    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

    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...

  • Satellite L500-164 - how to cut the speaker internal audio output mode?

    Hello Forum,

    If I want to hear the sound on a stereo external audio internal is always on! I have therefore two audio lines in my environment. Not really good.

    I have a Satellite L500-164. Is this normal for Toshiba laptops? How can I finally disconnect the internal speakers? In headphone mode everything is ok. Internal speaker is disabled.

    Hope for the quick responses, so I can return the laptop in the conversion period.

    Thank you very much for the help!

    PS: Sorry for my bad English.

    Hello

    Check the settings in the control panel-> Realtek HD audio Manager
    There is no tab called speakers.
    On the right, you will find different parameters.
    An option is called Advanced Settings feature.

    Here, you should try a different as option:
    -Tie the same type input jacks
    -Separate all the independent input devices input jacks.

  • Satellite L300 PSLB8E - how to increase the ram clock speed

    I have a laptop which is equipped with 2 slots for ram PC2-6400
    1 - Samsung module M4 70T5663QZ3-CF7 [800 MHz] 2GB
    2 - Samsung module M4 70T2864QZ3-CF7 [800 MHz] 1 GB
    GPU: Intel GM45
    Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T5870 Mobile @ 2000 MHz
    According to the manufacturer, this kit allows you to work with the 667/800 MHz memory speed, but the problem is that reference programs show the actual frequency of the ram at 399 MHz.

    Question No. 1:
    (a) why not clock the memory works in 800 MHz but only 399 MHz,
    (b) how to change to a 800 MHz

    Question No. 2:
    I'm going to buy a processor
    Penryn Core 2 Duo T9600 processor (1066 MHz FSB) (2.80 G) Hz or T9400 (2.53 G)
    and install it in the computer
    and increase the memory of 2 x 4 GB 800 MHz (8 GB)

    I explained that this possibility is provided for by the manufacturer according to the Maintenance Manual for:

    (PSLBAx / PSLBBx)

    If this operation will help to improve system performance

    I put t know what programs you use and if it is good or not if this info can be good and perhaps not. I put t know. The fact is that you n t have one any influence on the functionality of memory and I doubt that you can do something and change some values.

    Exact specification for laptop laptop does not for me but I think that Satellite L300 must have Intel GM45 chipset and I presume that for your motherboard FSB is 667 MHz. You can improve up to 8 GB and compatible 4 GB RAM module has PA3670U-1M4G part number.

    Upgrade CPU on Satellite L300? I put t know man. A friend of mine has this model of laptop and I don t know if it's the right decision to spend money to upgrade this old model of laptop budget.

  • Satellite 2450-201: how to increase the video memory from 32 to 64 MB?

    Can anyone help? I looked in the Bios and the advanced settings screen, and found nothing to increase the size of the video memory.
    Any other way to find on my Satellite 2450-201

    Hello

    As far as I know that the unit has been delivered with the NVidia GeForce4 420Go 32 MB graphics card. This isn't a memory sheared graphics card.
    The card supports the own memory and not a function of memory sheared.
    In this case, you cannot change the value of memory.

    Hello

    Shared graphics memory is controlled by GPU driver. You cannot add or edit it manually.

    More depends on the Windows OS you use, because the 32-bit system can manage max 3.2 GB of system memory.

    For example:

    * (32 bit OS) *.
    System memory: 2GB | 4 GB
    Dedicated video memory: 128 MB | 128 MB
    Shared system memory: 702MB | 1214 MB
    TOTAL available graphics memory: 830MB | 1342 MB

    * (64 bit OS) *.
    System memory: 2GB | 4 GB
    Dedicated video memory: 128 MB | 128 MB
    Shared system memory: 702MB | 1631 MB
    TOTAL available graphics memory: 830MB | 1759 MB

    Hello

    the machine cannot tell what size memory it should use. He has the ability to use 128 MB. But he will not use memory that is really necessary. So if you don't play games 3D or something like that, you don't need as much memory video.

  • Satellite A300 - 25G, how to increase the flexibility of the volume knob?

    Is it possible to increase the sensitivity or responsiveness of the wheel of digital volume control on the front of the laptop?

    Front of the A300, I had another Toshiba laptop with an analog volume control wheel, which was much more comfortable to use. A tour would only serve across the entire volume. The a300 wheel must be returned several times to systematically reduce the volume.

    As it is digital, I imagine that there is some sort of driver control wheel, so we need a way to set the sensitivity of it. But I couldn't find anything myself.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    > Is it possible to increase the sensitivity or responsiveness of the wheel of digital volume control on the front of the laptop?

    I doubt that this is possible I have a U400 and another laptop Satellite with the same volume wheel and didn t find settings that could increase the sensitivity of the volume wheel

    You can increase the volume in Control Panel-> sound-> playback and set the volume level separately.

  • Satellite C660d-A2k - how to increase the backlight of the screen using battery operation

    I bought a new computer laptop, installed all the drivers and it works.
    How to turn on the backlight?

    It works only when I charge the laptop. Turn off when it turns off.
    If add to the brightness of the screen up and turn the screen gets brighter the load.

    How to make led lights fixed, I put it in the market only when the load.

    Hello

    The brightness of the display can be changed using the key combination FN + F6 (increase) and FN + F7 (decrease).
    Have you read the user manual? This is mentioned in the manual that is preinstalled on your laptop.

    In addition, you should also check power Win 7 Options.
    You can find it in the control panel-> power options.

    I guess that switches from laptop to another optimized battery Central while you disconnect the adapter. In this case the brightness of the screen falls down to ensure longest battery working time. You can change the level of brightness for this plant too.

  • Satellite A100-750: how to increase the graphics memory

    Hi all

    I have a question... can I change the amount of memory available for the video card?
    Now the pc with Vista home premium have only 64 MB dedicated for the video card and 271 MB of available system memory and memory system used 0.
    It is possible to Exchange software video memory setting?

    TKS
    concerning
    Fabrizio

    Hello

    Are you sure that your graphics card for laptop supports shared memory?
    AFAIK the A100-750 was delivered with a nVIDIA GeForce FX Go7300 and this card supports own video memory of 64 MB. This isn't shared, memory and so you cannot increase this memory of graphics card on a higher value.

    In this case the graphics card uses the own memory, and the laptop need not share main memory with the graphics card.

    Hello

    In the specification of [Toshiba P305-8915 | http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=2234100& rpn = PSPCCU & modelFilter = & SelCategorie = 3 & selFamily = 10 73768663] I saw grapich memory could be changed, but my question is how to do this? I have search and I can not find it.

    Ideas to change the graphics memory?

    As far as I know shared memory cannot be set by the laptop user. It depends on the RAM upgrade. With more RAM, graphics card will use more memory for the graphics operation.

    As you can see in the specs that your laptop can be upgraded up to 8 GB of RAM.

  • Satellite L300-129 - how to increase the video memory (shared)

    Yesterday I bought TOSHIBA Satellite L300-129

    AND I WANT TO ASK SOMETHING:

    I want to share some memory to improve the proceedings of VGA card.
    I know that I need to do from the CONFIGURATION of the BACK but I can't and I need to improve my VGA card because the default is so so small... I want to give him some PART of MEMORY (RAM) SYSTEM

    PLEASE I NEED HELP

    THANK YOU GUYS;

    Hey Buddy

    Unfortunately, I doubt that you can allocate a portion of system memory to video memory manually. AFAIK this sharing process is controlled by the driver for graphics card and all run automatically.

    On the other hand the graphics card driver could assign more memory for video card if the system memory could be upgraded.
    In other words the higher system RAM superior video RAM.
