Re: Tecra S5 - 15 q - monitor display lines vertical and error 43 for GPU

After about 5 years my Tecra S5 is experiencing problems with its graphics.
Most of the time the (internal and connected an external via VGA) monitor displays vertical lines, and windows gives an error 43 on the map.

I was wondering if there is a way to solve this problem, and if this problem could be solved under warranty (although the protohistory of the warranty expired 3 years ago.) .

In my opinion, it is bad material work and as far as I know only way to fix it is motherboard Exchange. I n t have this model of laptop, but I can presume that the GPU is fixed on the motherboard and cannot be traded separately.

Fixed under warranty? Of course.

  • Tecra W50-A-114 - blinking display - brightness up and down

    Nice day

    + First of all sorry for my English. +

    I have problems with the display on my tecra w50-a-114. * Sometimes display blink (ca for 5 min.) (brightness go on 100% and then again the current settings). *

    I don't know what happened. I'm not aware that I changed a few settings. I have check all power management settings, but each parameter is in my opinion very well.
    Do you have idea what happened?

    _Thank for all suggestions. _

    Hello

    I assume that the level of brightness of display changes no matter if the laptop is connected to the mode of battery or AC adapter? Is this correct?

    Usually, the function FN + F7 and FN + F8 keys increases and decreases the brightness of the computers.
    But I put t think that theses function might be related to your question.

    For me, it sounds a bit like hardware issue of Billboard, but it's only my personal opinion

  • Inspiron 9400/E1705 - lines vertical and the seeds, and then black screen on startup of the computer

    I have an Inspiron 9400/E1705 with a nVidia Geforce Go 7900 GS. A few months as the computer started showing the seeds while I was game (textures does not, massive downturn, etc.) and then finally horizontal began to appear on the screen, from start-up. I was unable to get into Windows with the exception of Safe Mode. I thought that the problem was the graphics card, and some users on this forum have confirmed this suspicion. Although in May 2007, when I was still under warranty, I got the card replaced, I don't was more under warranty at the time so I started shopping around for a replacement.

    Before that I bought a replacement, however, the computer just stopped starting upwards. Previously, at least I could get Safe Mode and check my e-mail or Word process; now the screen stays empty (the LCD and an external monitor) and seems not even to try to start. The power and it occupied lights turn green, however, and remain like that until I turn off the power. I tried to boot with a RAM chip, thanks to the optical drive removed, with the hard drive, removed, and combinations of these, just to see if anything would change (anything).

    My question is if this can also be a symptom of the graphics card does not, or I have a bigger problem on my hands?

    Thank you.

    Edit: I forgot to mention that I ran the diagnosis before the white screen began to arrive, and only errors have been associated with the video.  I can't run any diagnostic now, though, to see if there are new mistakes, which is why I want to confirm a dead card can do that until I get a new.

  • Tecra M3: black screen on startup, the vertical lines on the external monitor

    Hi all

    I searched a lot on the Internet for a solution to this specific problem, I have, but did not find a thread
    with exactly the same problem. I have a Toshiba Tecra M3 with Windows XP SP 3. Two weeks ago, I encountered problems with the commissioning. After a couple of times to restart it would work. Then it became worse... When I try to run I see no splash... the screen remains black. If I press the power button, I hear the fan and CD player but no screen. It is totally black. I know its working because I can go (blindly) in the installation program. Press end, and then press Y and enter. The computer will restart but still no screen.

    I plugged it to an external monitor. Pressing Fn and F5 allows switching. The external monitor shows different
    vertical lines in multiple colors. They change if I go to settings or you try to start windows.

    Does anyone have a solution to these problems?

    I have fear of solution can be given by the service only.
    In my view, this question must be tested properly.

    I can't say for sure, but to me that sounds like a technical question. Without testing you will know for sure what is the problem.
    Here on the forum we can only speculate why this happen.

    As you can see on notebooka? s LCD problem. On external it doesnâ? t properly work as well. It may be a faulty graphics card.
    Try to contact the nearest authorized Toshiba service and speak with the technician.

  • Tecra R840-111: external monitor continuously restarts

    Hi all!

    I have a problem when you use the vga of the Tecra R840-111 with my external monitor/TV (LG M237WDP).
    Restarts it continuously monitor (it seems to restart).

    This behavior does not occur with another external monitor or if I use another laptop with the monitor named above.
    I used a live CD of linux (ubuntu) and everything is ok. Isn't weird?

    Advice?

    My toshiba has a kind of hidden in the bios menu diagnosis?

    Can you help me?

    Thank you.
    Marco.

    Hello

    I have exactly the same external monitor but I don't t notice any monitor emits as you described in the message.
    I have two laptops and the monitor is connected to using VGA cable and DVI cable for two laptops
    In both cases, the monitor does not restart so I m not quite sure what you are talking about

    With regard to the BIOS.
    It s don't know for me about the hidden in the BIOS menus.
    In addition, you said that this problem does not occur with Linux, so I would say that its certainly nothing wrong with the BIOS. Also this theory would confirm because the other external monitor works well.

    Maybe some sort of software preinstalled Windows OS cause this?

    Also in the BIOS, you can choose the detection of the external monitor option (or something similar). Usually its set to automatic, but I assign this internal display.

  • Tecra M2: No. 1400 x 1050 resolution graphics and an external monitor

    Hello.
    I use a Tecra M2, with GeForce FXGo5200, Win XP (patched), latest graphic driver 4.6.4.4.
    Problem:
    There is no possibility to standard resolution 1400 x 1050 to the external monitor.

    1600 x 1200 (and higher), 1280 x 1024 and many others are available in a long list, but the one I need for the Samsung 203 b is missing - even if "no longer view the resolutions not taken in charge" in the monitor display properties is disabled.
    According to the manual of T2, 1400 x 1050 is supported.

    Tested with 1600 x 1200 on a different monitor and it works perfectly.
    Interesting: If I uninstall the graphics driver, I can go to 1400 x 1050, so from a technical point of view, it should work.

    Work without graphics driver is no alternative.
    If anyone has had this problem or knows how to force the pilot to switch to 1400 x 1050?
    Thank you very much!

    You re right.
    Supported by this resolution, but it seems that this resolution was not in the graphics card drivers.
    I put t know why the factory doesn't graphics driver includes some resolutions to this software but if it s are not so I guess there's nothing to see. :(

  • Tecra S1: lines horizontal and vertical video (LCD and LCD desktop)

    I hope this isn't a big hardware problem.

    Anyone know if I could fix it by my only?
    Is also the graphic module on the main card? And no Exchange is possible?

    I opened the laptop already before, that wouldn't be a problem.
    Maybe also had this problem before and can give me some advice.

    Thank you very much in advance.

    Best wishes from the Germany.

    Hello

    If the same appears on the external monitor, the graphics card must be defective. Graphics card is attached to the motherboard and it cannot be replaced. In such cases, the entire motherboard must be exchanged.

    So now the question: what to do?
    Ask for professional help?
    Get the new motherboard (the one used by eBay) and only exchange it?
    Sell the faulty laptop?

    What do you think about this?

  • Tecra M2: Vertical lines appeared and cannot go beyond the Toshiba screen

    I was watching a movie on DVD WIN and froze my TECRA M2 I restarted, I noticed blue vertical lines on the windows on the screen, then the loading screen went white, I restarted the pc and it Gauthier go beyond screen black screen of toshiba. Some people told me that it is the other HDD VGA. What do you think?

    Hello

    For me, it certainly looks like the graphics card failure!
    It's really bad, because for the most part to the whole motherboard must be replaced! :(
    But to be 100% sure the diagnostic test is necessary.

    I think you should contact the ASP in your country. Guys to explain the situation and ask for clarification.

    Maybe your warranty is valid? In this case all replacements would be FRO free!
    Usually the guarantee must be valid for 24 months if you have saved this notebook on the Toshiba page.

  • old PC, new monitor display problems

    Just bought a new monitor for my old Presario SR1500NX, but I can't adjust the screen resolution of 1600 x 900, who wants my monitor - it has a maximum setting of 1024 x 768. (Monitor = from HP2009m, widescreen) The graphics in my PC is "VIA / S3G UniChrome IGP. When I go to the tab view S3 it shows "Display devices" like an old CRT monitor, which I did not. I was using an older 17 '' LCD monitor 4:3 in the last 3 years, & it worked out of this video card, but my new widescreen monitor display is "stretched veeerrryyyy." I think I need a new "video card", correct? If so, can you recommend one if I can buy and install it (I printed installation instructions of a new video from the HP Web site card for my PC). I'm kind of smart with the software, but not the hardware side of computers. I installed more RAM on my PC, so I'm not familiar with the inside. (And no, I can't afford a new computer right now - I know that mine is old, but it works perfectly for my needs, I wanted just a new, larger monitor!) Thanks for any help you can give me.

    AG, here is a video card that should work with your power supply and a new monitor.  It is not a barn burner, but a lot more than the maximum resolution that is required to run it.  It is said that the minimum power is 300W.  However, manufacturers tend to overstate the power requirements of their cards.  Read the customer reviews and specifications on the product Page.  This will give you some good information.

    The card should improve the performance of your computer, too.  It will free the system memory that is shared with the video chip and add video memory on the card itself.  You could improve the memory to 2 GB to increase performance even more.
