Theoretically, you can pass the GPU if it is not integrated. However, Toshiba does not approve the Cpu/gpu upgrade:

Anyway, if you decide to update, contact center service before and ask them about Gpu compatibility.

    Hi mate

    Unfortunately, these updates is NOT possible.
    You can update only some some parts like RAM or HARD drive, but upgrading the graphics card is definitely not possible.

    Can anyone comment on what I would like to be able to upgrade my P20.

    Hi Richard

    Update graphics card is serious theme and my only comment to that is: pick up serious source info and not in the forum where everyone can say learn all about laptops.

    Sorry, but I'm still a little skeptical about some of the comments. I had P20 for about a year and a half and it is very nice for laptop (desktop replacement). The unit is powerful enough and with max RAM you can have a very nice unit. But never forget that this device is not so flexible as desktop computers for the hardware upgrade.

    Another thing: a few months ago, I googled around and searched some independent reseller (non-Toshiba) where I can buy parts of different material. I can tell you one. You can get everything but they don t offer updated graphics card. Guess why!

    Good speed with upgrade, but please don t claim later that the unit is too hot or too strong, maybe or anything else!

    Hello

    1.) No, it is not possible to update the graphics card.

    2.) you have installed several other applications (disk emulation software) which may have a negative influence on the player display. But I found some info that might help you:

    Hello.

    I got this model and the graphics card is defective,
    Where can I buy another?

    Thank you.

    GPU card is pictured [http://oi53.tinypic.com/1zlf0bb.jpg]

    Hello

    As I know the GPU is part of the motherboard.
    You cannot remove the chip because he welded s.
    You will need to replace the motherboard.

    PS: all parts can be ordered from Toshiba partner in your country. But the new motherboard is not cheap.

  • Can I play games like the SIMS 3 and oblivion on Satellite A300D-17F?

    Hey,.

    I will soon buy the laptop Satellite A300D-17F, which has an AMD turion ultra 2.2 ghz, 4 GB RAM, ATI hd 3650, drive HARD 320 5400 rps... etc...
    I was wondering if I could play games on it, but not crysis and far cry 2. I like games like Oblivion and sims...
    I'm going to play these games without any problem and especially the sims 3 and oblivion... ??

    Thank you!!!

    Hello!

    Well for Oblivion, you need at least a processor at 3 GHz, 1 GB of RAM and a graphics card Radeon X 800 for details.
    So I think that there should be no problem to play oblivion on medium-high quality, may be high is also possible.
    Furthermore, I played The Elder Scrolls III (Morrowind), the game before and I liked it, it s a very nice RPG. :)

    I was wondering if you wrote about the SIMS 3 it of not released yet so system requirements are not known to me.
    But I think that it should also work on your laptop at least of low quality.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A300D-17F - need to Vista 64-bit drivers

    Hi guys, I just bought the Toshiba Satellite A300D-17F.

    I discovered with great sadness that I a 32 bit OS and 4 GB of RAM installed

    I would like to install Vista 64 but with even more of sadness, I discovered that I could not find the drivers for my laptop to Vista 64-bit
    0_0

    Processor: AMD Turion 64 X 2 Dual-Core
    64-bit and a 32 bit operating system installed and no driver for Vista 64

    Can someone help me please

    The only way is to search on websites external to pilot because Toshiba does not Vista drivers 64 bit for your laptop model.

    Here are some sites where you can search for it:
    http://ATI.AMD.com
    http://www.Realtek.com
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    And don t forget to upgrade the BIOS to the version that is compatible with a 64-bit Windows OS. You can find it on the Toshiba site.
    Your model belongs to the PSAKCE series.

  • Low performance on Satellite A300D-17F

    4 GB OF RAM! also, why is my computer slow?
    I have the Satellite A300D 17F.

    Please help me (I already delete programs which are not necessary the Toshiba) why why why is my laptop so slow?

    You understand that none of us does not see what is the exact configuration for laptop, but this slow performance may have several reasons.
    Who knows what kind of application you have installed on this laptop?
    Who knows what processes are running in the background?
    If you install all the updates from Microsoft that it can slow down your computer quickly.

  • Satellite A300D-17F - where to find the drivers for Windows 7?

    Hello all brothers!

    My question is do not find drivers for Windows 7 and the Satellite A300D-17F.

    Yes it's my notbook, but there are no drivers for it on the download page. Do you know why, or what can I do?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I checked the Toshiba page and your model belongs to the PSAKCE series. So the Toshiba site doesn t show Windows 7 drivers for the moment. Maybe they will be soon released because each day more and more drivers for Windows 7 will be available.

    If you want you can try the drivers for a different model A300D. They may work because I don't see a big difference there.

    Satellite A300D 17F

    By the way who advised thanks me avira antivirus, perfect :)

    Hello

    I put t know if the HARD drive is the reason for the slow performance. The Satellite A300D is normally very good laptop and quite fast for all applications.

    Have you tried to reinstall Windows using the Toshiba Recovery disk? Maybe the performance issue is software partners and so a reinstall of Windows would be very useful.

  • Satellite A300d-17f not fast enough?

    Don t you think Satellite A300d-17f series are not quickly even if high memory, high processor?
    Mine is not fast that other machines that have low properties!
    I put t understand what kind of problem a± do! Thank you masters

    What do you mean by not fast?
    Fact the laptop start slowly or what?

    I think that you should not compare the speed of different specifications if the same software, the same operating system and the same applications were not installed.

    If Notepad starts slowly, then go to the msconfig-> Startup tab and disable some processes is not necessary.
    The background process may significantly slow down the books the boot process.
