Satellite A200-23U - strange Grapich/display problem

Hello

I have a Toshiba Satellite A200-23U and it has a problem... sometimes graphics seems worse suddenly or are destroyed. A simple reboot can operate correctly, but it is very possible to reproduce... when I say that the graphics are getting worse I mean the resolution becomes a little bit worse, and the colors are unacceptable... some waves are created and the areas that were almost of the same color before the problem are now surrounded by a ring-wave , they have only one color with no shading and a few white spots are in these areas... after the restart, everything is ok...!

I think the problem happens when the laptop is hot, but I'm not sure because he appeared also when the laptop was working only a few minutes in a cold environment and sometimes the device can be turned on for long hours and very hot, but the problem does not appear... Where did you think is the problem?

The possible reasons, I can think of is the monitor or the cable that connects the graphics card with the monitor. Another reason that I n t think it's quite possible is the graphics card. I think this is less possible because if the problem exists on my laptop and I connect to another external screen as my TV, the problem still exists on the screen of the laptop, but the image on the external monitor is perfect...

I'm ready to put new and bigger (2 GB I'll put 4gp) memory ram because the graphics card uses the RAM and the RAM is very high work when I play a game or watch a move.

Do you think it will help or solve problems? What do you think I could do?

Hi John

What then? As I see you have good test connect your laptop to the TV. Always is that this test can help you see if the problem can be related to the graphics card, but if there is no problem graphics card is probably OK and this graphic problem must relate to something else.

Of course, this virtual path, no one will be able to offer the exact diagnosis and say what can be the problem and we can only speculate what part of the material may be troublemaker.

In my opinion there must be a problem between the motherboard and display. I don t think that the display is faulty, but perhaps the cable must be exchanged, perhaps connector on motherboard make problems. It is not easy to say what to do.

Fact is that analysis only offer exact answer so I think you need professional help with this.
Maybe you should contact the closest service Toshiba and ask for help. Let them check it all and ordering new parts if necessary.

I put t think that you want to risk and disassemble the laptop everything yourself, have you?

  • Satellite A200-AH1 does not start problem

    I have this Toshiba Satellite A200 - AH1 laptop computer that will not start.

    The system has 1 GB of RAM, (2x512MB).

    When I remove 1 stick, the system starts without a problem, if I replace it, and the other, the laptop boots also upwards. I tested the two ram slots and ram spent each time.

    The problem of the laptop does not start only seems to happen when the laptop has installed two sticks. I tried even to 2 different new corresponding sticks and still nothing until I remove 1 piece of ram.

    Everyone encountered this problem before?
    Any ideas what the problem may be.

    My only other option would be to install a single piece of 1 GB of ram, but I would really like a better option.

    Thanks in advance...

    > The system has 1 GB of RAM, (2x512MB).
    You got your laptop with these memory modules?
    Are you sure that you are using compatible RAM (DDR2-667)?

    Hey Buddy

    You have a machine with the ATI graphics card. Am I wrong?
    If Yes, then the Chipset driver is ALREADY included in the ATI graphics driver that is available on the European driver Toshiba page!

    The order of installation displays the instructions step by step for all THE portable Satellite A200 PSAE6E but the fact is that devices were equipped with different material parts and that's why some single drivers do not appear or are not available.

    Once again; Utility/driver chipset is available/included in the ATI graphics driver

  • Satellite A200 PSAE3C - Flashcards support utility problem

    Hello
    I use the psae3c-ft108c Toshiba Satellite A200 model I purchased in the Canada. I m problem with Toshiba flash cards support utility.

    I formatted my laptop (vista home premium) and installed vista Ultimate edition a few days ago. I installed all the drivers, I had no problem until I installed comodo firewall pro (I don't know this comodo firewall causing the problem until I did research on the internet).
    After installing comodo firewall the FN key does not work and started to crash and he showed me a blue screen. I have restarted my laptop and tried the FN key, but it shows the blue screen still :(

    So I uninstalled the extra package of flash support utility and value cards and I tried to reinstall the flash cards support utility, but he continues to shows me the message that says "the product [2] is already installed, preventing the installation of this product. The two products are incompatible"value-added packaged installs well but since flash cards support utility will not be installed, I can't use the FN keys with keyboards... (I can use flash with mouse however cards)

    I uninstalled comodo firewall and tried to install the flash utility maps, but it does not work either...

    I don't know what to do... Please help me

    p.s
    Sorry for my messy :(writing I m an international student.

    I always use the freeware CCLeaner. It cleans the keys to registry and file systems, etc.
    I always use it after that a piece of software has been removed from the system.

    So you should this; After PPV was removed, allows to run the CCLeaner and before you install the new VAP to restart the laptop!

  • Satellite A200 - cannot download the display driver

    Hello

    I have the Satellite A200 with Intel X 3100 graphics card. I want to upgrade the display drivers. The only new driver for X 3100 is 7.14.10.1461 which is very large (146 MB) in size compared to those in the Intel support page (20 MB). With my bad connection, I am unable to download this driver. Why is this file so large? Is it possible to reduce the file size to the size provided by Intel?

    Despite, the Intel graphics drivers support page GM965 are 7.15 giving material support for SM 4.0 and OpenGL 2.0 + (AFAIK), in addition to many incompatibility has been resolved. However, in the Toshiba support page, the driver is very old (about a year and a half old). Is it not possible to update the drivers to those latest display?

    Thank you
    Sean

    Check to see if you can download the package in the coming days to view
    The packet size must be less than about 30-35MB ;)

  • Satellite A200-1GH - need to display drivers for XP

    Hello. I just installed XP on my Toshiba A200 1GH.
    I tried all the drivers, but it does not work. Please help me!

    Graphics card is nVidia 7300 Go, but the drivers do not work...: /

    > I tried all the drivers, but it does not work
    Description of the great error...?  :|
    Can you explain what you mean with it does not work?

    Satellite A200-1GH belongs to the PSAECE series and on the European driver of Toshiba download page, I can find a nVidia display driver. So I assumed that the pilot must work properly.
    It might be useful to reinstall. Therefore, to remove the old version and restart the laptop. Use CCleaner to find old files in the registry and the Windows folder and clean. Restart the computer and then install the latest driver from Toshiba's official website.

    Good luck!

    Hello

    Additional numbers describes the series of laptop! There are different A200 series!
    At the bottom of the unit, you will find the integer and you need only the first characters and numbers 5.

    Please choose the right Satellite A200 series and download the graphics driver on the right!

    But the way in which; I don't know if the game performance will improve after the installation of the new graphics driver I've read somewhere that Vista needs a lot more material performance and that's why some games don t m runs smoothly.

    In such cases, it s advisable to run and play games on Win XP operating system!

  • Memory of Satellite A200 - 12 X increases the problem

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A200 12 x (PSAECE) with Windows7-64 bit and I tried to increase its memory. This laptop has 2 GB (4 GB MAX), so I bought a 2 GB card to try and everything was ok. So I bought another stick of memory 2 GB, the same model as precedent, and after installing Windows said: installed 4 GB - 3 GB usable.

    My first thought went into the BIOS, so I tried an upgrade for him, but there are only two updates of BIOS for this laptop: Windows vista 1.8 (I have it) and Windows XP 5.2.

    Is there any way that I can take to achieve the increase in memory? or this upgrade possible memory to 4 GB was just a marketing hook.

    Thank you.

    David

    >... or this possible memory to 4 GB upgrade was just a marketing hook.
    How much RAM is recognized in the BIOS?

  • Satellite A200 - 1 M 8 - whistle problem

    Hello..

    I have the computer model toshiba laptop: Satellite A200 - 1 m 8

    OS: Win XP SP3

    I don't know, but sometimes something in my laptop randomly and suddenly made like noise or whistle, but NOT clicks when your hard drive is going to die.

    It's exactly like the sounds to the Hospital of pulsating heart on the machine when he moves to lower the level or milder to strongest level.

    I don't know if it's the hard drive, but my hard drive seems in good health and that this thing is happening for a long time.

    I'm not too sure if it is the processor, if it becomes overheated or overclocked, but I have not noticed issues freezing while it happened once.

    What's the battery when the power level of electricity changes?

    What could be the reason?

    Thank you...

    Hi mate

    You should know that the laptop was equipped with parts that could create different noises.
    For example, the HARD disk, modules of cooling / cooling fan.

    So it's not easy to say what role create these noises.
    I'm sure that it s not a CPU or a sign of overheating because in this case the laptop stops down automatically to prevent the equipment from damage.

    Maybe it s HARD drive and head disk HARD creates this noise while moving?  :| who knows

    But in my opinion you should always create a backup of your files because if it of really a HDD issue there is a risk of damage to the HARD drive.
    So save the date if you have some important data on the HARD drive.

    It must be said that if you aren't 100% sure, what causes this noise then visit the ASP and the technician could check the hardware

    See you soon

  • Installation of pile of BT on the Satellite A200-23U

    Hello!

    Then I install Toshiba Bluetooth stack, configuration manager stops at 5 points in the progress bar and ends, I ever solve this problem by renaming bth.inf.__. (_ automatically added this file during installation) in bth.inf, BUT there's another problem appear: all drivers installs successfully, but the system still 50% cpu loaded, right click on the blue icon in the status bar causes unclickable menu and after ALL Bluetooth drivers automatically remove windows if Device Manager I wait about 50 minutes

    I think that some process in my Vista removes this drivers after 50 min of my system, but I don't know why it can be! Perhaps the OS want to install its own stack, and that is why remove my Toshiba drivers...

    Any response can help me!

    PS: I almost tried everything (different batteries, fnf8 key, so please, don't tell me the usual as answers: the most recent version of the stack and so on), do not forget: this problem is not standard and may have some interesting and unusual decision

    Waiting for answers to any problem shown above that I have with my Bluetooth.

    Hello

    First, it is not normal that the installation stops at the point 5, etc.

    First question: are you sure your model has BT inside? could post you the full number of PA or to display the name of the full model as Sat A200-xyz. I ask this question because you find the BT software on Toshiba models without hardware BT inside (the same software image on the series)

    I f you have BT material inside I would uninstall all software from BT your restarting your laptop (Toshiba and perhaps Microsoft etc.) the machine. Download the most recent battery here http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/?page=download
    Install the battery and try again. If you get an error during the installation process, go to one ASP (Service Partner) next to you can check the hardware.

    I hope this will help you

  • Satellite A200-24 c (PSAE6) - display crashes when the images are zoomed

    Dear Sirs, I can't believe that there is no solution for the product that you produce. As my Toshiba I bought 14 months ago and try to fix it. I have a problem with my map displays 'ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600' when I see photos with Windows Photo Gallery and try to enlarge... display screen will hang and go with black and red blocks!

    I tried to install all kinds of windows (XP - Vista Basic Ultimate). I tried to download all versions of catalyst for the version 6 and 9.7. So what is happening!

    Do you know that most of my friends and the people hated the Toshiba brand because of this bad reputation on the market... remember that Toshiba laptops with Nvidia graphics card doesn't have the same problem. Please please please help me!

    Your prompt response will be highly appreciated.

    Sincerely,

    Hello!

    You have installed the Catalyst 9.7 driver. Don't know that this driver doesn't have protection against overheating and could destroy your graphics card?
    I would recommend so install the latest driver of display on the Toshiba site. These drivers are pre-tested on your laptop.

    In addition, I would try to update the BIOS. AFAIK some A200 models are special BIOS available for XP and Vista version.
    Check and update the BIOS!

    Good bye
