• Qosmio G40-10 s: graphics card problem

  Hello.

  I have a Toshiba Qosmio G40 laptop 10s with a Nvidea 8600 M GT grafixs card. I was playing a game when it locked up and pasted what I would describe as flashing red/green 'Matrixy' search screen.

  He then a blue screen and trys to reeboot.
  He tries to start windows, but once again the top matrix. If it loads to the top, it is in 16 bit color with red dots all over the screen.

  I am sure that the GPU is fried... and I was wondering what I can do? It's been 5 months out of warranty now.

  I read on some forums that there have been a lot of problems with this Nvidea card... Is there anything I can do outside my warranty period with what there is a possibly faulty card in it from the beginning.

  It will cost a lot of money to get it repaired, but its too good a laptop to let go to waste.

  Any help is very appreciated.

  Hello

  You also have these lines on an external monitor?
  If so, there seems to be a graphics card problem and it must be replaced.

  These overheating problems also occur if you use the nVidia display drivers directly. Toshiba drivers are pre-tested and don't overheat your system.

  But I think you need professional help. You should contact an authorized service provider and talk to the technicians. They will help you! :)

• On the Satellite 5200 903 graphics card problem

  Deploy a 5200-903 Toshiba Satellite. A few days ago, I have a problem with the display. All scratches and other
  unknown elements on the screen. It's the graphics card (FX GO5600). Read about it in other forums.

  My Question: Is it an embedded chart? And what do you think, is it profitable to change the broken component?
  I mean if the graphic is on board, I have to change the motherboard together.

  Thank you very much for your answers!

  Hello

  It's look like that there is a problem with a graphics card. Can you check connection of the external monitor to the laptop?
  The graphics card is integrated into the motherboard, therefore, you need to replace the whole motherboard.

  It is quite expensive, and sometimes it is better to buy the new computer

• Satellite A500 - 149 - graphics card problem

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A500-149 and last week my screen has scratches ace.

  The grapichs card is ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650.

  I send the computer to Toshiba yesterday but I need feedback because a repair. If the same graph as problem could cost to repair?

  Anyone know?

  I think that no one here can help you. Either is defective graphics card or screen may only.
  In any case, if the GPU is defective, it will be quite expensive.

  I think you should contact Toshiba service and ask what is the result of the diagnosis and how much you have to pay for the repair.

• Satellite C660 - update Intel HD graphics card problem

  Hello

  Sorry for my level of English, I'm French

  I have a problem without a solution with my Satellite C660 (for the moment, I hope!) I downloaded the software google sketchup 8, dedicated to the development of architecture, but it does not work, I still got a bug message advising that it is necessary to update the graphics card drivers (according to google support it seems that OPENGL functions must be implemented in the drivers of my laptop)

  So I downloaded the latest drivers available for the configuration I have (Intel HD graphics for pentium, 64-bit windows 7).

  the link (french site, that Intel is not currently available, it is a document of .exe)

  http://www.Touslesdrivers.com/php/Constructeurs/TELECHARGEMENT.php?v_code=37057&v_langue=FR

  I tried to update manually driver graphics card with Device Manager menu (graphics card > update drivers button > file.exe manual selection), but in the end, there is no update, I did that a very small message advising that windows has determined that the pilots are already updated.

  In fact there is no change on the drivers (always the same date of the 2010-07-28 drivers in the properties of the graphics card) and sketchup is still unemployed

  Any suggestions?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  What C660-xxx you have exactly?

  If you have an Intel graphics card, you must download the driver directly on the Intel site.
  There you should find the last version of driver

• Graphics - Satellite A100-313 card problem stops itself

  I have a satellite A100-313 and I use vista.
  Every time when I'm playing games, the laptop turns off after a while. It varies, normally have 10-20 minutes of play.
  And when I immediately turn on again, I get a black screen, but the computer is running. I have to wait a bit to get back to the screen to work.
  So, he goes to the top and goes to 1024 x 764 resolution (the native resolution is 1280).

  I guess it's a problem of graphics card (I have a Geforce Go 7600). I have already updated to the latest vista drivers available on the Toshiba site (the September).

  What can I do to fix this? Automatic shutdown normally only happens when I play games.
  Any help is appreciated.

  HM, delicate sounds.
  I suggest the following:

  Download the latest bios for your machine on the toshiba download site:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  And finally and most importantly, check if your cooling system of your machine is not clobbed with dust. You can clean it with a can with compressed air to remove dust from the fan and the heatpipe fin.

  If you have any questions, just ask.

  Have a nice weekend

• Satellite X 200 - 21R - graphics card problem

  Hello

  When I start my laptop Satellite X 200 - 21R, there are three successive beep (3 x) and the screen is black.

  Apparently, it's the graphics card NVIDIA 8600GT DUAL SLI, it is defective.
  It is a montage of special graphics (SLI) card with 2 x GPU 8600 connected in parallel.

  If I disconnect the connection in parallel (unplug the two cards) and I can only connect one (to find the card that is dead)?
  It is possible and it is functional for the laptop?

  Thank you for your help

  To be honest, I can't imagine if it would be possible...
  Generally, any change of material must be accepted and supported by the BIOS and as much as I know any GPU changes would affect the BIOS as well as the features of the laptop.

  From my point of few to get the workbook, you must use exactly the same GPU chip, which was built in the laptop... but this seems to be a very expensive affair

• Satellite L650D - 15K - graphics card problem

  Hello

  I updated accidentally driver graphic card ATI Radeon 5650 on the laptop, and then during the games and video look, the computer became very slow, the CPU usage is average on 60%.

  I uninstalled the latest driver, reinstalled the driver of my module provided on the Toshiba site (not the one on my computer, because I can not find where it is), but the problem remains, I don't know if the driver from the Web site is the same as on my laptop. It seems that there is some driver files that cannot always be deleted entirely. If I reinstall the whole system, I install and activate the software.

  Can someone tell me what should I do now?

  Thank you.

  Have you installed the latest driver ATI support page or the Toshiba download page?

  I mean it is recommended to use the Toshiba drivers only. I can't say this but I've heard that installing the non-Toshiba drivers can change some important values in the GPU BIOS.

  Of course, you can reinstall the recovery image and begin to use the laptop with factory again.
  It will be interesting to know if everything will be like before again.

  Back up all your important data, reinstalling the OS, test it and thanks for posting comments.

• Cannot install VISTA on Satellite A100 graphics card driver

  Hi all

  I need help.
  I just installed Windows Vista Ultimate on my Satellite A100-326, (series PSAA9). This system has a graphics card from NVIDIA® GeForce Go 7300 with 256 MB dedicated memory that has worked very well on Windows XP MCE!
  The default graphics card driver does not work, so I downloaded the new driver for VISTA from Toshiba.
  Don't just install! I always get the following message: "the NVIDIA installer didn't find all the drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. The installation program will now stop. »
  We know what the problem might be?
  Did someone encountered the same situation?

  It's really frustrating...

  Thank you

• HP Pavilion P6 2055sc: Cant enter BIOS because graphic card problem.

  Hey!
  So for the moment, I try to turn on virtualization, I m able to boot the computer into windows but do not enter network boot (anti-spam f10 key before the HP loading screen) but because of the past problems, I struggle to get into the BIOS.
  It all started when I got a new (Asus Geforce GT740) graphics card and this caused my computer not being able to start, without forcing in the network boot.

  But like I said, when im trying to get into the BIOS, it gets to the screen where it says "Press Escape to access the Boot Menu" which, at that time, it ignores when I press ESC.

  I tried holding it, I tried all the keys F1 - F12, but nothing makes a difference, so im wondering if there is a way for me to get into the bios and work around this problem.
  I looked for so updates to the BIOS, but I couldn't find one so far.

  @alilleland, welcome to the forum.

  The reason for which the computer would not start with the GT installed 740 is, it requires UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  If you always use the GT 740, I suggest to withdraw to see if you can enter in the Boot Menu.  You can do that by typing the ESC key as soon as the computer begins to start.

• Qosmio G40 - 10F - graphics card problem

  I bought my laptop in 2007 and now have a problem with the video card 8600 m GT (vertical or horizontal lines show and get a message on the GPU).

  After reading a few similar posts, I think I have to replace the motherboard, rather than just the graphics card.

  My problem is that I don't know what motherboard I have or what I need to upgrade to.

  Can someone help me, because I'd like to get this operational return.

  Thanks in advance.
