Satellite A300D overheats whenever I run any game

I have Toshiba Satellite A300D 18 months but 2 months now I have problems.

Everytime I open a game my machine is warming and that in 5 minutes turn off itself. When I look at the videos my computer heats up very well and I can't bring to Toshiba Service to fix, because six monts has now im abroad. I think that if I take options down to the bottom of my screen it will be better.

My graphics card is 128 MB, but using my ram and its 892 MB, how can I close the ram usage view? My laptop is Toshiba Satellite A300D PSAK4E, if someone help on this, I will be very happy because I am back in my country after 5 months, and up until this time I can't give my machine in i.t. for fixing.

Hi zero_1,

Maybe it s is not necessary that you need a professional to an authorized service and you can fix this problem yourself.

Sometimes a notebook should be cleaned from time to time because there is a lot of dust in the cooling fans. It can be cleaned with a spray of compressed air is very easy.

  • I can't run any games that use DirectX

    Hello. Before I tell you my problem I will give you some basic information.

    My other laptop broke, so now I'm currently using an old Windows Vista laptop I had. This laptop really got destroyed by a Rootkit (I have since found and deleted, has also conducted several full scans with Malwarebytes after I did, found nothing.) It was the guard scare-ware online.

    Now, on to the problem. I ran before on this laptop games such as counter-strike and of Garry's Mod, but now I'm having issues running it. Messages error say a few words about hardware acceleration and others, it was graphics issues. Then I ran dxdiag and went to see, it turns out that that's what I got: http://i.imgur.com/5yp7Unq.jpg

    As you can see, all my settings acceleration not available. I tried updating my DirectX but in vain. It simply doesn't get it. The red rectangle has been added by me, I believe that it is the source of the problem. Pilots can be screwed. I also recorded diagnosis of DirectX tests in a .txt file and put it in a pastebin here: http://pastebin.com/pBDDFugP please read this if you think that you can find the problem.

    I could really use help on how to solve this problem. Please read and answer if you do.

    To update your video drivers. Each approach has pros and cons try each.

    You can;

    • In the Control Panel (and select Classic view in the left pane) select Device Manager, go to your video card under display adapters and do a right click - Properties - drivers tab - choose put up-to-date driver (and possibly Rollback if any updated driver).
    • Use Windows Update, you choose the option to check the updates of pilot also
    • If it came with a PC, go to the web site of PC manufacturers more for those who made the web site of the component
    • Often the material is based on a specific chip and the web site of the manufacturer of the chip can have reference drivers. You can get the manufacturer of the entry in the Device Manager to the first point.
      For example, NVidia has the reference drivers for their chips to http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us material

  • Problems with DirectX, you cannot start any game.

    Hello, I just joined here because I can't find an answer anywhere, I hope you can help me :)

    As the title says, I have problems to run games on my lap top, I can't run any game I have installed on it, they all show an error or do not launch at all. First of all for all, my computer specs:
    HP Pavilion dv7, running Windows 7 edition full 64-bit
    Intel Core i7 Q720 @1. 60 Ghz
    6 GB of RAM
    GeForce GT 320M with Directx 11
    And the games I've tried so far:
    -Roller coaster tycoon 3 Platinum (it shows Directx 9 not found)
    -Euro Truck Simulator 1 (in the settings window, I can't change between OpenGL and Directx, and it will not open with OpenGl I don't know why)
    -Euro Truck Simulator 2 (it crashes just before the splash screen)
    -Grand Theft Auto San Andreas (similar to the 2 Euro truck Simulator)
    -Age of Mythology - The Titans Expansion ('Failed to initialize')
    And I must say that all of these games has a great like 5 months ago (Yes, I have 5 months without playing an any of them).
    I will zoom checked drivers video card, update to the latest directx and I tried to downgrade my directx to version 10, but it seems to be impossible.
    It also shows, on DX diag on the section "Screen", DirectDraw, Direct3D and AGP Texture as 'unavailable '.
    Any ideas on how I can solve it? Thanks in advance, if you need info. just tell me :)

    Thank you for your quick response, I solved it today morning, I had to downgrade somehow the video card drivers and thn update again, and it worked, if anyone has the same problem, try to do this and hope it works for you also.

    Thanks, Imran M.

  • 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

  • Re: Satellite L655-146 - start screen shaking when I play any game

    Hello

    I bought this laptop about 5 months ago and since I'm doing that I had the same problem all the time. Tried a few things to do something, find some ideas on the internet but still nothing.

    It has Windows 7 Home premium 64 bit, 3 GB of Ram, Intel Core i3 and card ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5145. When I play any game, even if it was a game of simple graphics, the game start screen shaking and in most cases it became freezing or which gives a black screen (ESC, ALT + F4, ALT + CTRL + delete) do not work with it. Yes, whenever I had to shut down my computer and start it again.

    Sometimes I have this message "display driver driver AMD unresponsive and was recovered successfully.

    Is this a hardware or software problem, and what can I do?

    Thank you
    Hossam.

    Hey,.

    > driver AMD display driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered
    It seems that something is wrong with the display driver have you already tried to reinstall the display driver? Display driver is important, especially when you play games.

    I advise to use the latest Toshiba display driver that you can download here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    But before you install the new display driver first remove the old one. Then restart your computer and remove old registry keys. Therefore, you can use a registry cleaner like CCleaner. It of freeware and very nice tool. After this restart again and then install the latest display driver.

    AFAIK, art objects are caused by overheating of the graphics card, I recommend:

    Hello
    I'm quite desperate. My Satellite A300D is overheating. I can not play new games. Temperature hit 94 degrees and laptop is restarted. I cleaned it several times, very precisely and nothing. So I decided to send it to the official service of Toshiba. After that, the phone is still the same.

    My only hope is buy cooling grease and cooling stock-base. But before that ideas, advice?

    Thanks for everything...

    Hello

    I can understand you mate, but have you contacted Toshiba service center again? You should speak with the technicians and explain the situation. I put t know what they did, do you know that?

    Cleaning of the laptop is still a good idea but if it doesn't work maybe the thermal compound must be renewed. So ask a technician for help laptop.

    By the way: what OS are you using? You can use the same problem with the factory settings and preinstalled display driver?

    Since I bought this machine, I am not happy.
    There is a problem: he works so slow than other laptops and they have inferior properties.
    I don't understand.

    I almost have to break. I've done all the tips (uninstall tempro, stop the backround programs, program viruses... etc) but it's the same.
    -J' I want to listen to an mp3 that is not open for ten seconds, watch the movie it is not open again for 9 to 10 seconds.
    -i wana to connect to a site web it freezes
    -for example the search for Messenger is taking once again for secondssssss
    -implementation of xp, it is hourssss
    but the machines of my friends who have inferior properties are so fast

    Is there someone has this machines? It has the same problems? or only I have these problems?

    Thank you very much right now.

    Hi mate

    > Configuration of xp, it is hourssss
    This means that you have tested the laptop under Win XP?

    How did you install the Win XP? Have you installed using AHCI mode (in BIOS) or you switch to compatible mode?

    By using the compatibility mode that HARD drive could run slower and this could affect the performance of the operating system.

    Solution: You must install the Win XP in AHCI mode. I think the laptop supports the AMD chipset and the required drivers are therefore part of the ATI graphics chip.
    Download the graphics driver, choose the drivers SATA and include it in the Win XP disc using nLite application. nLite is free and all details can be found in the internet.

    If you overclocked?  If so, cancel that.  If the games you play are poorly written, it is not that you can do about it.  If you have not cleaned the dust and lint from your computer within a certain time, you should do that because it accumulates and causes overheating.  For desktop computers, remove the cover and carefully use compressed gas to blow off the dust, especially around the fins in the processor heat sink and air ducts.  For a laptop, I'll ring gas compressed through the ventilation openings.

    Good luck.
