I updated the drivers directly from Nvidia, as I have the Geforce GT 330 M, it ceased to display the error message, but the screen is still blank. Anyone has any ideas how to solve this problem?

Also, a small separate question, sometimes my laptop will automatically resume after hibernation (I don't use mode 'sleep') when I open the cover, without pressing the power button. However, most of the time this will not happen, and I have to press the power button instead. Why the computer will do that sometimes, but not others? Can someone tell me how to get the laptop to turn on simply by opening the cover, 100% of the time?

Thank you for your advice.

Hello

With regard to the problem of black screen.
You used the nVidia driver that it is not advisable due to the missing overheating protection. You must use the driver from Toshiba page.
Please also check if the BIOS is updated.
If the BIOS newer is available, please update that I read in some discussions that might contribute to solve these problems

Regarding automatically resumed from hibernation.
You must check in the BIOS if the Wake up on LAN and wake on keyboard options are disabled. If both or one is turned on, then off, save the changes in the BIOS and reboot the device

Good luck

    Thank you

    Hello

    The version of the video driver 275.33 is not an official version of Toshiba. I checked the Web from Toshiba site and for your model of laptop (model PSAR9E number) version 8.16.11.8875 is the most recent. So I recommend installing this display driver because it s pre-tested Toshiba designed for your model of laptop display driver.

    I hope that helps! :)

  • Satellite A500-1GL - graphic card problem and overheating

    Already, the first problem appeared immediately after the purchase.
    After a telephone conversation with the service and install some problem driver disappeared but unfortunately it was another, computer laptop start overheating especially on games but evan on movies more make strange noise.
    I ve already used about 7 different cooling pads but none of them helped, I change the fan settings, cleaning by compressed air did not help at all.

    Is there a way I can fix this?

    Should I send it to Toshiba as it is still under warranty?

    Can you please tell us what is the first problem?
    To be honest, you should let Toshiba service to check this and give you 100% of mobile working.

    What you want to do? If the same symptoms are there even if laptop with factory settings, I think it is certainly the issue of guarantee.

    My display driver on your laptop A500 - 1EE crash now since I bought it.

    Uninstalled the driver, rebooted, reinstalled... his problem persists, every two days, and even 2 times a day, he breaks down, but recovers immediately after.

    Please help, because I don't want to send it in for service just for that.

    Hello

    This is a typical problem for series a500 freezing and crashing. I'm also owner of A500-1dn, had the same problem who had disappeared after the update of a map graph to nvidia.com. But you know, this driver is not pretested by Toshiba and use it at my own risk.

  • Satellite A500-1GH - display driver stopped responding and has successfully

    My laptop is the A500-1GH and I bought it 2 days ago...
    My problem is that, for the fourth time, the screen went black and then recovered and I get the message "display driver stopped responding and was retrieved successfully." My graphics card is Nvidia GeForce 330.

    I'd appreciate it if anyone knows what to do to fix this

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    Looks like the graphics card driver crashed for no apparent reason.
    Have you tried to reinstall the graphics driver?

    To do this.
    Visit the page of European Toshiba driver and download the driver for this model of laptop. Update the driver and restart the device.

    It would be interesting to know if it would help.

  • Satellite L300-2This - display driver problem

    I had daily problems with a display driver. I've looked everywhere for a newer version, but it seems that he is no. I could find only 6.14.10.4953 version and it is one I have already.
    BTW the message I get on screen BSD is "igxprd32 driver has entered a loop" or something like that. In any case it is super annoying not not to be able to find a driver for a less expensive than a portable years TOSHIBA!

    Thank you

    I think problem is not the driver itself. It must be something else that has a negative influence on the graphic feature. I put t know what operating system you use but install original Toshiba recovery image and I'm 100% sure that everything will work perfectly.

    Who knows what you have installed on your laptop and what are your activities.

    A few months ago, I installed Win7 32 bit on friends L300 and it works perfectly. Her HARD drive was dead, and we've updated the HARD drive and did clean install of Win7. Until now he didn't notice any problem with graphics or features in general.

  • Satellite 2430-402, display driver problem

    I have a Satellite 2450-201. Very often when the system comes back to hibernate the system will not reboot, it gets stuck after the opening logo. I have to turn it off then then got in safe mode and then restart. I get a message that the system has recovered from a failure of the device and it identifies the driver of Nvidia display as the culprit. I have re-charge the last driver from Toshiba, but if I try AN update of Microsoft, the screen goes crazy, and I have to go back through the re-boot and safe mode thing. Any ideas on what may be the problem?

    Good evening! I had this problem with my Satellite 2430 402. I ve updated the Bios and everything was fine.

    Check your Bios Version at first?

  • Satellite A500 - NVDIDA Windows driver in kernel mode has stopped working

    I bought a brand new Satellite A500-1GL with a Geforce GT 330 M graphics card. Unfortunately, whenever I watch videos in full screen I get the following error.
    "Display Driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver Version 188.29 has stopped working and has recovered"

    The screen turns white and the sound terribly false. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the Nvidia drivers. It seems that all A500-1GL models with faulty chipset on the motherboard. Toshiba must investigate this matter!

    Help, please

    Hello

    The videos you watch exactly? This happens with all the videos, for example Youtube, DVD, or only with specific files?

    I also GT330M graphics card in my phone but I can t notice any problem with him. I m using the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba and the last driver display Toshiba official page.
    And you should try updating the BIOS

    Finally and most importantly, another user reported that he could solve the problem if Windows Aero is disabled:

  • Satellite A500-1GL: recovery reached Office Reboot again and again - solved

    I did a restore on my Satellite A500-1GL using F8 to recovery on the HARD drive.

    However after the computer goes through the implementation of Windows 7 for the first time, from desktop it immediately disconnects and restarts.

    This process of setting up Windows for the first time, including initialization screen white with logoff bar then immediate green and stop constantly repeats.

    Same result with Recovery CD I created again.

    It is no longer an option to repair the computer when you press F8.

    Any suggestions please?

    If I end up having to reinstall Windows 7 from another copy, then how can I go about it like
    Windows 7 license serial number rubbed off the label on the bottom of the laptop?

    Thanks in advance.

    -* SOLVED * -.

    -It turns out that he must restart about 6 - 7 times to complete the installation.

    Hello

    As I see that everything is fine. It is logical that laptop restarts several times while recovery facility is running. I do not know how it looks with your machine, but when I use the recovery machine it starts with the number 1/64. With other words, it must be installed 64 components (software) and then some of them laptop restarts simply but installation will continue.

    When the recovery image is complete it is still displayed on the screen and the laptop owner is notified that installation of recovery has been completed successfully.

  • Satellite A500-1GL: what are the essential drivers for Win7 64 bit

    Hello

    First of all, sorry for my English, I'm french :)

    Second, I'm going to buy this PC next month and I have the opportunity to buy it without a Windows license (I'm already a Windows license).
    So I'm lost to find the drivers on the download page, because there are several versions of drivers (for example drivers: Nvidia or Realtek Semiconductor Corporation)

    (Important drivers) drivers I need to download once to install Windows Seven 64-bit.

    Thirdly, I would like to know if it is possible to install display drivers downloaded from the Web of Nvidia site and not that of Toshiba?

    Thanks for your help :)

    Hello

    > So I'm lost to find the drivers on the download page, because there are several versions of drivers
    Satellite A500-1GL is a part of the PSAR9E series. If you need drivers then you must choose Satellite A500 PSAR9E

    > What (important drivers) drivers I need to download once to install Windows Seven 64-bit.
    Almost all of the drivers are important... the essential drivers are sound, lan, wlan, graphic card driver, touchpad, etc.
    VAP (value added package) and utility support memory card Flash are required for keys FN and buttons of media control

    > Thirdly, I would like to know if it is possible to install display drivers downloaded from the Web of Nvidia site and not that of Toshiba?
    Usually it s not recommended to use the drivers from nVidia or an ATI page because these drivers don't support drivers Toshiba overheating protection
    But if you want to use the nVidia drivers so that at you own risk

    Installation can be a bit harder running the exe file will not work because you will get a message that this driver is not allowed, but you can install all the drivers in Device Manager you can point to the driver files, stored on the HARD drive and this will allow to choose the nVidia Driver

  • Touchpad no longer works after update BIOS on Satellite A500-1GL

    Hello world

    I just bought my laptop Satellite A500-1GL today. I started at the top and plays a bit (nothing serious). The touchpad worked very well at the moment.

    Then I discovered this tool to update the material and the update of the BIOS that worked without any problems. After I restarted the laptop, BIOS, loaded the default values of the installation and recorded.
    After that Windows 7 (x 64) started the touchpad no longer works...

    I downloaded the driver here and installed again once, still does not. I went into the BIOS, disabled the touchpad (I thought that maybe it's a bug...) and started again. It still does not...

    I enabled it again in the BIOS, tried to push the function + F9, but it still does not... Finally, I used the recovery and installed a Windows 7 costs.
    But unfortunately it still doesn't.

    Now, I'm out of ideas, can anyone help?
    Is there a chance to get the older version of BIOS to downgrade it?

    Thanks in advance ;)

    Hello

    It seems strange that after update Bios touchpad no longer works.

    > Is there a chance to get the older version of BIOS to downgrade it?

    To be honest, I don't know where to find. In any case, do a search on Google. Perhaps, other users of the forum can give you a link to download.
    The downgrade of the Bios is riskier upgrade procedure. So, be careful the next time...
    Advice for the future; Do not touch the running system.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite A500-1GL (PSAR9E) turns itself on at 08:20 every morning

    Hello

    I've had my Satellite A500-1GL (PSAR9E) for a few weeks now and it's great except, that he puts himself on every morning at about 08:20.

    * I was * stop * switch wifi on the case of the machine every night after his stop, (because I was wondering if the problem came from wake-up-on-lan).
    * I've been unplugging all the usb devices on the machine after
    * I have even unplugged my helmet just in case it makes a difference, (it's not)...

    I was leaving the unit plugged in, but there has been no interruption of power any since I got the machine.

    There is no one else at home when this happens, and I have no pets!

    I'm completely puzzled as to why the machine turns on, (and almost exactly the same time each day!)

    Anyone have any ideas here?

    Thank you
