• Unable to get games to recognize the graphics card.

  Hello.

  I have a HP Pavilion dv7-6c50ca Entertainment Notebook PC

  I have had for almost a year. It is still quite shiny and new and I love it, but there is an annoying problem, I keep turning once in a while. Specifically, I bought this laptop on another model with more processing power because the secondary dedicated graphics card with which he came was much better than the graphics cards in all other models. It has a

  Radeon (TM) HD 7690 M XT, which is not really stellar, but has been well evaluated and a good report quality / price of the laptop. The problem is, I never actually using it when I play games because they always try to detect my hardware automatically and don't find that bed in the graphic chip intel supplied with the processor. I always go in the Catalyst Control Center to change it to 'high performance', but seems not to do anything. I checked the support for some of these games and they had some suggestions for fixing it, but so far without success. Is there anyway I can force the laptop to give priority using the Radeon all the time? I am not concerned about power because I usually take the power cord with the laptop everywhere. (It's a computer 17 "laptop and relatively heavy, so I am really confused by the extra weight of the cord).

  Long story short, none of my games seem to find my good graphics card, intel only shit one. How can I fix it.

  I understand that the Intel card is the only option for the games that select the video card before the launch of the game.  To check, make games that do not select the card before the game starts work with the AMD card?  Just to note, switchable graphics of AMD system will use an AMD card with OpenGL programs.  See this document for more information on OpenGL.

  Make sure you have the most recent BIOS.  I doubt that your system will have this option (few do), but go into the BIOS and check the section of configuring the system for a fixed mode option.

• Satellite L500-1DT: can't play Grand Theft Auto because of the graphics card driver

  I use my laptop for a number of games.
  I just downloaded GTA4 but can't play.
  I get a understood to "re - install DirectX and/or insert the latest video card driver.
  I reinstalled DirectX, but I'm not sure of the video card.

  Any ideas what driver I need?

  Hi mate

  This unit supports the Mobile Intel GL40 graphics card.
  The latest graphics card driver can be downloaded from the Intel page.
  See the Intel Web site.

  The installation of the graphics card must be made in the Device Manager.
  Here, you use the Advanced installation procedure which allows to point to the driver files downloaded from the Intel page.

• Unable to play games because of random fps drops

  So I just got my new laptop HP Envy 17 3070nr A9P78UA #ABA about a month ago. And since I've played all the games installed above (in offline mode) or online, I randomly get huge lag, fps drops below 1 and sound feedback is slow and distorted. This may take from 10 seconds to 2 minutes. Occurred are examples of games where it emits: half-life 2, Countersrike GO and League of Legends. I updated my drivers and BIOS for later and I reinstalled the games.

  Data sheet:

  OS - Win 7 (64-bit)

  Processor - Intel COre i7-2670QM CPU @ 2.20 GHz, 2201 Mhz, 4 cores, 8 logical processors

  RAM - 8 GB

  Graphics - Radeon HD 7690 M XT

  Free space - 450 GB

  IIRC, it's a hard disk protection feature that is the cause. Disable it solves the problem. I forgot what the function is called, though.

• Failure of the graphics card on the Satellite A100-405

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba A100-405, which has a Geforce go 7600 graphics (specifications).
  Yesterday, playing a game, all of a sudden the frozen screen and showed a lot of horizontal stripes.
  I tried to restart the computer, but succeeded only in safe mode. The bands have not disappeared. (funny colors, such as low resolution, stripes, blocks, etc.)

  Question 1: Is my assumption that the graphics card is in correct failure?

  Question 2: Can this card easily replace? And if so, which would cost only? (in EUROS)

  Looking forward to your answers.

  Roel

  Hello

  These funny funny colors, as low resolution, stripes, blocks are called artifacts (adverse alteration in the data, introduced by a technical and/or technological). It seems that the dysfunction of the graphics card. To be sure, connect the external monitor to check. Talk about the replacement, if it is integrated in the motherboard, the entire motherboard must be replaced. It costs about 35% of the total price computer laptop, as you can see that it is quite expensive.

  Also, from my own experience I know, sometimes these artifacts occur because of the graphics card overheating due to dust. Do not be lazy to clean the laptop with the jet of compressed air. Otherwise, contact the ASP (SAV) and prepare the money.

• Wanting to update the graphics card for a m8517c

  Could someone tell me if I am able to update graphics in my HP m8517c

  Here is a link to my system specs...

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01486309

  I want graphic better due to the fact that a lot of my boys want to play PC games does not work because of the graphics card.

  Thank you

  Ladungan, Yes, you can switch to a dedicated PCI Express x 16 video card.  However, there are three considerations.  First is the power of the power supply (PSU) and the second is the size of the map.  You can determine the power of the PSU in opening the case and by reading the label on.  You can determine the size of the required map by taking measures in the space provided.  Open the case.  Measure from the edge of the case to the opposite side of the motherboard where the PCI Express slot.  It's the approximate card that fits.  In addition, many new cards are double profile (two locations).  These can present problems of space.  Thirdly, it must ensure that the power supply has the connectors appropriate for the video card.  Some require more power.  In this case, you probably need the power supply.  It costs somewhere around $100.

  If you like help to choose which card you would work, let us know.  With the power of the PSU, we can make that determination.

• I'm unable to play games in fullscreen. As soon as the game is activated, the display is only in the center of the screen.

  I'm unable to play games in fullscreen. As soon as the game is activated, the display is only in the center of the screen. It happens with every game.

  Have you tried to change the GPU scaling option in the control center of AMD?

  You could try re-installing the latest drivers (and therefore, the control center) and see if that fixes the freeze in order to change the option.

  Otherwise, you can try a system restore to a point before the option has been modified or when it was not gel.

• Tecra M2: Can play a game of the graphics card?

  It seems that play Flight Simulator could destroy the graphics card on the laptop! I never thought this would be possible. I gave a friend my old Tecra M2 (as a wedding gift) which he also uses to play FS9. A few years ago, he had to have the motherboard replaced (Fortunately it's still under warranty then) because it has become defective. This has happened while he was playing FS9. I never thought that at that time.

  It seems like the same problem comes up again, but this time the laptop isn't under warranty anymore. Nothing has been changed on the video card to "accelerate" or "chip" or another - it is standard at the factory. The latest drivers are installed for the Nvidia GeForce FX Go5200 32 M / 64 M and the portable computer has 1 GB of RAM (and a lot of space on the HARD disk).

  At startup, the Toshiba logo has green vertical lines. The Windows logo also has the same symptoms, the vertical lines. I was able to boot in safe mode, a few times, then it started normally (I was onto a winner of thought), but now it seems just blue screen and reboot after Windows Logo (even if I didn't no reset in case of failure). After the reboot, I got a blue screen (BSOD not usual) with the next STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0 x 01010101, 0xF7911378, 0xF7911074).

  Any ideas? I'd be really upset if I found out that a game could physically cause a motherboard to replace on a laptop! If this is true, can someone tell me how to prevent it in the future? I have a Tecra M3 and I don't want to happen to me either!

  Thank you!

  -Emm.

  Hi mate,

  the fact is that I would NEVER play FS9 even on my machine which is a Pentium 4 3.0 Ghz with 1 GB of RAM and a geforce 7800GS.
  Flight Simulator 9 needs AS many system resources and in your case it s like you take 500 tons of steel and throw on a single donkey.

  The M2 is a pure business machine and not scheduled to play these games like FS9 needing beasts of machines to run * correctly *. Maybe the older games are playable, but I think that it s right that FS9 could probably damaged your graphics unit (overheating).
  You won´t move swap the motherboard and let your FS9 fingers when you hold an M2 or M3 or a set of non-game in your hands.

  The man, who is ill, the poor M2 then FS9... :D

  Clear from the statement to me: Yes, a game CAN probably damage a portable system, but not for sure! And an M2/M3 is not to play these games. Rather spent the money for a system with a Geforce 8600 Core2Dou or something similar.

• Cannot run game Bioshock on Satellite X 200 because of the graphics driver

  I just bought a 200 X and I can't update / install the drivers for the graphics card on the toshiba site! While installing it gives a message saying that a BONE bundles is installed.
  The computer is just out of the box and the only game I have installed is bioshock (which does not run in DX10 mode!

  any ideas?

  Hello

  JEPP, I have an idea. Check out these sites:

  http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
  http://www.OmegaDrivers.NET/

  and download the latest drivers for your machine from there. These drivers are native ATI/NVIDIA drivers, but the *.inf files have been modified to operate on mobile systems. Just give them a try and you will be able to play your games.

  PS: I really like bioshock and I understand you absolutely :)

  Hi Li-ngme,
   
  (1) have you installed drivers for the joystick correctly?
   
  It seems that the gamepad drivers is not updated for windows 7. Let us know if the gamepad work on other games under Windows 7.

  Try to access the link below and install the drivers for gamepad for windows 7 and even install as an administrator.

• Satellite A100-207: is it possible to update the graphics card for games

  Hello

  I am looking to buy the laptop Toshiba A100-207 and it comes with 128 MB shared graphics.

  I would like to play games and I was wondering if I could update the graphics (for example, a nvidia card I could buy and put in) or the fixed graphics?

  I just want to know if I am able to upgrade?

  Thank you

  Hello

  In my opinion the graphics card or processor is not welded on the new generation of mobile phones. The parts must be simply plugged into the card.
  But this does not change the status of the upgrade.
  Eventually, you will be able to remove the graphics card but I m sure that you will have problems of compatibility with other hardware.

  Fastest graphics card produces more heat and the temperature will automatically increase to a higher level. This would lead to overheating in the question and the laptop would be either closed or not starts.
  PC desktop technology is simply different as on laptops. You can also compare different graphics cards. Laptop factory uses only graphics card chips what don t supports a clean cooling module.

  It simply says s not possible to update the graphics card.

  I searched the Web for a better card, but couldn't find any info on my laptop with the exception of increasing the performance of certain software such as mentioned in a youtube video

  Please someone heeelp

  Hi samuniv,

  As you can read in 100 other threads, it of not possible to replace the graphics card because it s fixed/soldered to the motherboard. Therefore, an Exchange is not possible.
  You should also check out this interesting article:

  According to the specifications of your laptop is equipped with an Intel GMA 4500 graphics card. The card is good for the office and Windows but it s not a graphics card for new 3D games. You can play older games on the low resolution of the screen, but newer games will not run.
