Satellite A200 - 1 GB: ATI HD2600 glitches and GPU failure

Hello

I have a Toshiba A200 - 1 GB with Windows 7 x 86.
I tried all the drivers site ATI toshiba Web, new and old and the screen becomes weird, ATIKMDAG fails and recovers until the BSOD comes up, then when I restart the laptop screen Black Guard.

I can only see the login external monitor screen, however the same seeds will appear on this screen, I think although it is not a screen problem.

I am running windows 7 now with integrated drivers only (from windows update), and I played a game for an hour without any problem, if I install the catalyst with the latest drivers that he keeps doing the same thing, so basically I would like to know if it's a hardware problem or a software problem. The temperature of the GPU does not 47ºC.

Please check the 2 videos I recorded with fraps on dropbox. When the video becomes all black, it's when the ATIKMDAG failed and recovered.

> I can only see the login external monitor screen, however the same seeds will appear on this screen, I think although it is not a screen problem.

In my opinion, the internal graphics card begins to malfunction.
Its certainly not a problem of display internal.

What you could do is to recover the laptop using the Toshiba Recovery disk and could test the laptop using factory settings (Toshiba default image that has been installed on the first day of purchase) and test if the seeds of same would be visible.
I guess they will do

  • Satellite A200-1FL (PSAE6), ATI Mobility Radeon HD2400 and WXP

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A200-1FL (PSAE6), anyone know if it really works algun driver for ATI Mobility Radeon HD2400 with XP. Since I proved (I tried) a bunch of drivers and no work included the fact that adds Toshiba in his (her, your) official release page Display Driver of Ati 8.383.1.1000, thank you.

    From time to time, I think you should check the page European driver of Toshiba.
    To my knowledge, unique drivers are downloaded and out very often.

    You can also take a look on Toshiba Canada website. You can also find some useful graphics drivers!

    Finally the www.omegadrivers.net site is very useful and the GPU driver from this page works on my laptop.

  • Re: How do we get Toshiba to ask newer drivers - Satellite A200 - 28 p ATI

    Hello

    I have an A200 - 28 p with an ATI HD2600 card in it and the July 08 version of the driver 8.452 on it,
    Now, I sent ATI and asked if there was anyway that they could provide Toshiba with the driver which corrects a known issue in the Sims 2 game where cards ATI 2.3 Series 4000 suffer a black screen on TV and the PC doesn't have an image.

    And they essentially told me that they cannot offer me a updated driver and there are ways to get the latest drivers but that belong to my laptop maunfacturer asking for the latest drivers as people with desktop computers with one of the affected cards have all had a driver update to solve the problem and the creators of the game provided a fix in one set updated for one of the expansion packs that I don't own.

    So unless I may leave an exemplary program called Securom on my laptop I can not get my number black screen fixed am used now but when feel well enough to play on desktop is fun to see TV programs and pictures of PC seems unfair to my laptop can not have a more recent updated driver with a fix in there.

    Anyone know who I need to contact Toshiba to see if ask ATI for a driver with a fix in for this problem known?

    Post edited by: Simreaper Oops misspelling

    This tool is known to me, but it s at your own risk to use these drivers and tools!

    The display driver for desktop PC s don t have protection against overheating and if the graphics chip can be damaged.
    So I think that this solution of good isn t.

    About the main problem perhaps there is an upgrade or patch for the Sims 2 available which solve this problem.
    I search with Google for a stamp. :)

  • Satellite A200 - 25 c - looking for examinations and tests

    Hi, I would buy the A200 - 25 c: T8100 - HD2600 - 2 GB - 320 GB (800-1000a ¢ A?) A¬)

    But it is very difficult to find any tests or comments on this particular model. I'm looking for mostly pictures on this topic, given the autonomy,
    energy consumption, from the reflection of the screen (ok, this is better or worse than others), noise and how (and how much) for an extended warranty (in France).

    Thanks for all who have experience on this laptop special or links to this topic.

    Hello

    Unfortunately it does not already exist many tests/reviews on the net, since the machine is fresh on the market. But one of my friends has a Satellite A200 (I Don t know the exact model) which seems to be a really good and reliable machine with enough performance for almost everything what is necessary today.

    Even games are well experienced, so I think that the machine does what it should.

    With regard to the tests: just periodically check google.com or Web and type 'Satellite A200 - 25 c test' (or 'review' instead of trying) and you might find something that brings you perhaps closer to the decision to buy this machine.

  • Satellite A200: No audio after update SP1 and NET Framework

    Hello

    After my laptop Satellite A200 update Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and the .NET Framework 3.5 Family Update (KB951847) x 86 and
    Internet Explorer 8 for Windows Vista, the speakers and the headphones stopped working.

    When you go to the speaker icon in the taskbar, it says "No. AUDIO OUTPUT DEVICE INSTALLED.

    I'm confused.

    Can someone help pleeeeeeeease.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think you should just go to the Device Manager and should remove (uninstall) the audio driver.
    Then go to the Toshiba European page, choose your model of laptop, download the audio driver and unzip the package.
    Reboot the laptop.

    After the Win operating system has started, the new device (sound card) should be recognized and the operating system asks for the driver.
    Now, you must point to the driver package that you have downloaded from the page and must be reinstalled the driver.

  • Satellite A200-1QZ - view suddenly becames fuzzy and a little green

    Hello

    Excuse my bad English, but I have a problem with my 2 month old Satellite A200 - 1QZ Notebook.

    Sometimes, about 2 times a week, my screen get is fuzzy (there looks like the color depth would change to 16-bit or less) and I can see a small green tint (but here? not sure m) on the entire screen.
    I do not understand why, because sometimes during games, chat, write in word or something else, so no matter what I do.

    Currently AI? using m for laptops modified Desktop Driver Catalyst 08.2 (the driver is original, but I have a tool called 'Mobility DotNET4', I modified with.

    I don't think that the updated driver is the reason for my problem, because I remember of the day, I used the notebook for the first time and 1 hour later, I got it too. And now, the certified Toshiba display driver has been installed.

    I solve the problem with the restart of the system, but it is very uncomfortable during the games or chatting.

    I hope that my text is understandable...

    Help, I would be very grateful.

    Hello

    Eventually he s a graphics card problem, it is possible if the 3rd party graphics card driver has been installed.
    The graphic drivers from Toshiba support thermal protection which is needed to prevent overheating of the material!

    If you have used a non-Toshiba driver then a GPU could overheat and therefore this issue happened.

    However, for me, it looks like a hardware problem and therefore the laptop must be checked by a service provider authorized in your country!

  • Satellite A200-195: TOSHIBA Flash Cards 'black and white cards' does not

    I was wondering if someone can help me.

    Recently, I restarted my Satellite A200-195.

    I found that my flash cards for my function FN hotkey buttons disappeared and are not pop up on the top of the screen more.
    However, I am able to support the other function keys on the keyboard part F1 - F8, one that allows the mouse F9.

    I already uninstalled and installed the added value package, support Flash utility and even tried to update the Bios, but it seems that my Bio is already the latest version.
    After all, that I seem to be able to activate my mouse F9 key, but my other function keys don't work anymore and the flash cards still do not appear like they use to.
    Is this what can I do to get my flash card pop up on screen without having to bring my laptop back to factory default?

    Have you tried to restart Flash cards?
    Start > all programs > Toshiba > utilities > restart Flash cards.

    You can also try is to install the Flash cards support utility if you can find it on the download page of Toshiba.

  • Connection to a Satellite A200 to a TV with video and audio.

    I have a Satellite A200 and I was wondering what cables to connect to my TV with video and Audio. I have an S-video cable at the moment, but I need the sound of the TV.

    Thank you.

    The problem is that cable s-video doesn t transmits the audio but only video signal.
    If you want to get the sound on the TV, you must use additional RCA cable.

    Hello

    Toshiba multimedia keys are controlled by VAP (value added package).
    The VAP is model independent, the VAP for Satellite L500 should work also on Sat A200
    So download the PPV for Satellite L500 and check how it works on your A200

    A question:
    What do you mean by Flasch card?
    Do you mean the FN keys or the card reader?

    The FN keys are controller by utility Support Flash Card which can be downloaded also on Satellite L500 driver area

  • Satellite A200 - 28 p: touchpad will blue and freezes

    Hello, can someone give me and my friend were little help, we have all two laptops A200 - 28 p nine and she comes to live this weird problem with the touch pad I first noticed about a week after I bought mine. I was fortunately with the touchpad when suddenly it lit in blue and totally frozen and no matter what I did, he would not answer and I had to force the laptop in (via the Ctrl, Alt and del keys) to get the touchpad to meet once again and he does this to me about 3 times and I thought that maybe it was just me something wrong that I don't hear well with touch keys, find it difficult to use, especially when playing computer games so I bought an external mouse, but he lit blue, once again, since then and that the other night when I forgot my mouse moved and external something using the touchpad but fortunately because of my external mouse could exercise and not have to shut down the laptop.

    Now this afternoon my friend just sent me a text explaining why she disconnected as its touchpad has just made this blue light to the top of the thing and froze. There is no warning its will do, one minute the next end, its blue and frozen, anyone else experienced this and if so how to fix what I could not find any help at all, on the basis of knowledge or in my little troubleshooting on the manual.

    Well, if his thing like my laptop so do not worry. If you press the top right button where you see the 2 arrows then the touchpad will turn blue because it allows you to use shortcuts and control the volume with her. If he disappears in blue, it out again just tap the upper right corner.

  • Satellite A200/A205 - problems with start-up and sleep modus

    I have a problem with my Toshiba (running on Windows Vista).

    When I start the computer, sometimes it starts normally. But often, it starts to beep, I can hear the fan start fan and lights up blue. But the system unbootable and I see only a black screen. When I turn off and try again, the ringtone happen or it starts normally. Sometimes I have to turn it on three times and sometimes it starts the first time.

    The other problem is when my laptop into sleep mode. Sometimes when I push to the bottom of the screen, but also when it rises. It turns into sleep normally, but it won't come out. I see only a black screen. I always turn it off and restart.

    I don't know much about computer and computer-language programs, but I really hope someone can tell me what to do. I bought recently and I can't work with it like I want to.

    Hello

    This code beep at startup always means there's a bad material work so I think that there is not much you can do.
    The problem could be related to everything, RAM, card graph, processor, motherboard, etc. and it is not easy to diagnose it exactly.

    What you can do is to test the RAM with Memtest86 or other memory diagnostics tool. Maybe he can find something

    If this isn't the case, I recommend you contact an authorized service provider. Guys can you help solve this problem. :)

  • Volume of the Satellite A200-1 DR is going higher and higher

    Whenever I try to turn the volume down, it does not work and the sound goes higher and higher (up to be maximally).

    I tried to change the configuration in the Control Panel, but it did not work.

    The only thing that I can do is to use the icon of audio (in the toolbar) but is quiet boring! what I could do to make the sound of moletes buttons work wheel again?

    Thank you!

    I hope that this is not a matter of mechanical volume control.

    I recommend you first update the BIOS.
    You should know that after installing Win XP, you must update the BIOS to version XP!

    After update BIOS to reinstall the driver of its new!

    Last but not least recommend reinstalling the driver for Toshiba controls and then Toshiba controls
