Replacement of GPU on Satellite P100-216

I joined this forum on behalf of my brother who lives in Turkey. He took with him to England a Satellite P100-216 laptop.
He had problems with him and he took to a workshop in Turkey to tell the graphics card needs to be replaced and the installer had problems to make a. He suggested to one of the United Kingdom and next time someone visits, they can take the card to the Turkey. I live in England and also told me of a repair shop here that the card is integrated on the motherboard, and it cannot be replaced, it s not worth repair.

Could someone advise me if this is the case. If it s not integrated, y at - it another card that would fit. It only play hidden object games, so I doubt that he would need a top spec.
Any information would be very useful and I thank in advance for the help

Hi dude

You shouldn't be disappointed. The forum is a user to user forum.
If others think they might be able to help then they will post here in this thread.

That s right the GPU is a part of the mobo and if the GPU would be defective, then you need to replace the motherboard. But the new motherboard is not cheap, so maybe better to buy a second hand laptop before getting the mobo replaced.

PS: as you can see that it is a user to user forum... maybe other users expect a notice from you too as you did too, so to be part of the community and try to help others also...

Welcomes :) and welcome to our community

  • Satellite P100 - 216 (PSPADE) - CPU / RAM upgrade options

    Hello guys,.

    I just got a laptop Satellite P100-216 (PSPADE-01400UEN). (card: T5500 - GeForce Go 7600 512 mb, 200GB)

    It has a Core 2 Duo T5500 inside and I intend to upgrade as well as the RAM to make a good laptop for my wife.

    The question if CPU is supported (assuming that the latest version of the BIOS). I am interested in the series with FSB800 or same T9000 T7000 series (1066fsb) shall if possible because I can get them pretty cheap - I know that the T5500 is just 667fsb by itself, so I wonder if the higher FSB is supported or I stay with 667 Mhz.

    Have searched through the net, but no information so far. Would not buy CPU only for it being not recognized by the laptop.

    Any advice would be much appreciated.

    Kind regards

    It is very nice for laptop and if you want to upgrade the RAM upgrade for your wife. In combination with the operating system pre-installed and optimized its own missus will be like to work on this machine.

    Upgrade of RAM is quite problematic and you can do it alone. what you need to do is get the compatible modules and high quality.
    I think now P100 has 2 GB of RAM, but you can upgrade to 4 GB.

    As compatible modules, you can use
    TOSHIBA
    PA3513U-1M2G (memory 2 GB DDR2-667 Kit) or

    Kingston
    KTT533D2 / 2G 2GB 533 MHz Module
    KTT667D2 / 2G 2GB 667 MHz Module

    On the CPU upgrade, I would just say that we forget. As a first step, it is not necessary to do so and secondaly - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  • Can I replace the GPU on Satellite L300D?

    Hi, I have a problem with my Satellite L300D.

    From the start after about 15-20 seconds it stops not to reach any screen. I took it to a real PC repair company and after a few days that they be taught me the graphics card had packed and needed replacement for the sum of £ 70. Tell him what I kind a second opinion and spoke to a friend I.T. from my friends who said that we can not just replace the GPU as it is part of the motherboard and it would cost more than £150.

    Could someone advise / tell me who is right, the laptop is about 4 years old. Any help is greatly appreciated

    Thank you very much
    Paul

    In General, your friend IT is right. On mobile laptops graphics card is attached to the motherboard and cannot be replaced or upgraded.

    In such cases service order new mainboard and replace it. Problem is that this new mainboard is quite expensive.

  • Temperature of the GPU on Satellite P100-102

    Does anyone know the values of normal temperature for the GPU from NVIDIA 7600 Go series? After replacing the motherboard by the service, the GPU reached 82 degrees Celsius (180 deg F) (without executing 3d application) and only the main cooler blows. Under 3D performance he attained values around 100 degrees Celsius.
    The values were obtained with the Everest program!

    Thank you
    Jan

    Hello

    Have you noticed the same temperature before replacing the motherboard?
    AFAIK the P100 supports a clean cooler graphics card.
    Two heat sinks are placed on the map: one for the CPU and a GPU.

    It seems that the GPU heatsink does not work. Why? Maybe the technician didn't properly connect I n don't know
    But try to contact the service guys again I think they should check again before the GPU goes dead

  • GPU on Satellite P100-217 fan never turns on running Linux Gentoo

    Hello

    I am running Linux (Gentoo) on my P100-217 (Geforce 7600). The graphic card fan never turns on, and the GPU gets to a temperature higher than 100 ° C when executing some 3d games. When I boot to windows, the graphics fan does not turn and the GPU is much cooler, running the same games.

    Can someone Toshiba please give me some information on how to solve this problem under Linux.

    Here is some additional information:

  • High temperature of the GPU on Satellite P100-108

    Hello

    Since 2 weeks ago I noticed that my GPU temperature goes up to 82 degrees. Everything to the left of the laptop gets hot after a few hours.
    I remember that a fan used to put on when obtained temperatures high, but lately I don't hear it. HARD drive and CPU temperatures are normal.

    If linux is used with acpi disabled, then a fan runs all the time and temperature of the GPU is around 50 degrees. I don't know what fan making all that noise, it could be the fan of the CPU or GPU maybe.

    So, I'm not sure if it windows or hardware failure. Any ideas?

  • Satellite P100-423 - RTC battery replacement

    I'm happy enough to replace the CMOS / RTC on Satellite P100-423 battery because the device is out of warranty and the battery needs to be replaced.
    Le-423 is a build of Costco and not much found after the mandatory, manual Google and research forum.

    Can anyone recommend a type satisfying to do this, no clue on the former.

    Thank you

    Hey,.

    Are you sure that the RTC battery is replaceable?
    I ask this question because as much as I know it is not possible on all s models and if it is replaceable you can find the specs on the battery itself if you disassemble the laptop.

    Normally, this battery can be charged if you leave the AC/DC adapter plugged in for 24 hours. Have you already tried?

    Who knows I didn t find any info on the Toshiba page.
    But as far as I know the many laptop models are equipped with the same graphics chip.
    Therefore, you can also try a driver for another model that was equipped with the same GPU chip.

  • No GPU fan after upgrading the BIOS to 4.2 on Satellite P100-434

    Hi, I upgraded my BIOS today to version 4.2 and since the GPU fan only works during the splash screen, and once Vista has loaded, it never runs again, in addition, the CPU fan turns at a constant speed, and the screen has "shifted" to the right, so I quarter of the right hand of the screen on the left.
    As you can imagine, it's a little annoying, and to say that the GPU temp is 65deg. with 90deg all about processors. not too good for the material.

    Is could someone PLEASE tell me how I can downgrade the BIOS?

  • 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.

    In any case, I've posted my DSDT updated at: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/edit.php?manufacturer=Toshiba&name=Satellite+P100-429

    NB I use also of the Bios version 3.30.

    I found the solution on the French site, I had to interpret slightly.

  • GPU Overclocking on Satellite P100 2

    Since then, my last thread had closed Im going to respond here.

    During the mobile overclock was "in the air". The GPU temperature did not more than 66 degrees.

    Laptop works perfectly, no bugs in the rendering. The overclock test is complete.

    BTW: for overclockers who wants to overclock Toshiba Satellite p100 - 10 p: I recommend you overclock of 20-30 mHz GPU and memory. Its stable, safe and should increase your FPS.

  • GPU Overclocking on Satellite P100

    Hello

    I have a question.
    I have the Satellite P100 - 10 p. Will I overclock the GPU (is it safe and to see how well will I overclock).
    I have 7900GS and RivaTuner.

    Thanks in advance,

    It is nice to hear positive comments, but in my opinion, it is quite risky and the result may be overheating, damage of graphics card or permanent ventilation of cooling running. I just hope that everything will be ok. You have done at your own risk, and if something is wrong you can expect pretty expensive repair costs.

    In any case thank you for your report. Make sure that the ventilation openings are not blocked and the laptop can be cooled properly. Maybe you should put your laptop a little higher and make more distance between the desktop and your laptop. Place on four CDboxes or something similar.

    Good bye
