Satellite A-C50-1DV - replacing a graphics card

Hypothetically, if I wanted to replace the graphics card in my C50-A-1DV Satellite, how would I go on this subject?

And if I had to send my laptop, how much would it cost?

At first, I must say that upgrade or replacement of the GPU is not officially supported and all action in this sense is at your own risk.
Please note that laptop disassembly will void the warranty.

But we are talking hypothetically about all this.
What you need to do is to get new GPU, disassemble your laptop, Exchange and assemble your laptop.
On some models of computers laptop GPU is fixed on the motherboard and cannot be traded. I put t know how it is on your machine.
> And if I had to send my laptop, how much would it cost?
If the GPU is faulty and warranty still valid best option for you is o closest contact Toshiba service provider and ask for help. In case you want to upgrade, Toshiba service will help you with this.

Can you please tell us what the problem with your machine and the original of the graphics card?

  • Replacing a graphics card on Satellite P10

    I have a Satellite P10 554 for more than 2.5 years (warranty expired). But now the display start to Flash (sometimes some horizontal strips as refreshing disorders, sometimes turns completely black,...).

    Meanwhile, the laptop is frozen until the view retrieves. After flashing several times, the screen can not recover more and sometimes restart the laptop (with sometimes after a blue screen of death). If I'm lucky so far, WXP tells me that an error related with the NVIDIA driver and switch to 800 x 600 resolution asking me to restart.
    This usually happens sometime after Windows XP starts, usually at the age of 5 minutes. I did not notice any software related issue and he persisted after full format and reinstall Windows XP.

    In addition, the most annoying part is that when I reboot after that, the screen is still bad for the Welcome startup screen (some horizontal strips down because it was a problem refreshing). To solve the problem, I let the laptop for at least 15 minutes. When I restart 'cold', the problem is repeated after some time.

    My guess is that the graphics card is broken. My laptop is installed with a 64 MB NVIDIA FX Go5600. I updated all the drivers. The same problem also appears even if I use an external monitor or TV.

    My question is if I can replace the graphics card. In the specifications of the laptop indicating that the graphics card uses a port AGP 8 x. Pourrais then replace the problematic graphics card?

    Thank you

    UH... maybe the question was too complicated?

    Is there a way that I replace a damaged nVidia FX Go5600 64 MB in a Toshiba P10-554?

    I guess that it is integrated into the motherboard, but it does not check for myself.

    Thank you, people

    My graphics card is broken down, and after removing dozens of screws, I checked that it is not built into the motherboard. I could he dismantled after removing the screws of the bottom three.

    · It's the nVidia chip: http://imageshack.com/a/img836/4343/q7lg.jpg

    Research in the internet, I found just 1 card graph similar to mine. But I don't know if it will work, because I read that the devices must be exactly the same as the original:

    c918 http://www.eBay.es/ITM/New-Toshiba-A000013050-NVIDIA-G73M-128MB-GeForce-Go-7600-Video-Graphics-Board-/360821279000?PT=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&Hash=item54029f & _uhb = 1

    I asked the seller eBay on compatibility and his answer was: "Please contact Toshiba for the complete product compatibility." But Toshiba does not provide any support after the expiration of the warranty (in Spain).

    Anyone replaced this graphics card? Do you think I should buy the graphics card of this ebay? Are there other solutions? (for example: replacing the entire motherboard...)

    Thanks a lot in advance.

    I never had to replace a graphics card in a notebook, but I wouldn't buy any part if I m not 100% sure if it would be compatible with my laptop.

    Is that SATELLITE P100-342 was equipped with a NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 (name of code G73M) PCI Express x 16 (GDDR2 dedicated 256 GB RAM) graphics card.

    The part on ebay supports 128 MB only and that's why I think that the two parties are not the same.
    This might be the reason not to buy this piece.

  • Can I replace the graphics card on Tecra M2?

    I have a Tecra M2 and the display shows verticle lines across the entire screen. These lines also appear when plugged upward on a normal screen.
    I checked Device Manager and it says that the nvidia card "cannot start." The problems had me uninstall and won't reinstall, no luck.
    Next option is to unplug and then plug back in, but is it possible? If it is separate would rather just replace the card. Thanks for any help.

    Chase

    From your description of the error, this really sounds like a malfunction of the GPU (graphics processing unit).
    Unfortunately, it is a serious offense and if a replacement of material you will not be able to fix this :(

    It is a case value because you can not only replace the graphics card. You need to replace the whole motherboard because the GPU is soldered on the Board and cannot be removed easily.

    There is nothing to my buddy.
    Seems that you need to contact a support technician.

    Good luck
