Satellite L30-105: how to change shared video memory on Vista...

My question is the same as we can read on this url:
http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=20578

But the solution only works with windows xp, anyone know a driver version with which the 'frame buffer' tab is present?
The latest version of the driver is installed on my Satellite L30-105(catalyst 7.6), 128 MB are shared, but 32 will be enough for me.

Thanks in advance

Hello

I think the problem is that Vista graphic driver does not support this option.
The option described in the in the other thread was available in the argument XPOS.

But why would you change? On my L30 128 MB shared memory are activated, but the laptop uses only 64 MB if I put t run all applications performance.
The pilot controls the amount of shared memory automatically.

You can se under control panel-> display-> advanced settings
In the map tab, you can see total graphic memory available (in my case 128 MB) and system memory shared (64 MB)

By the way; I don't think that 32 MB graphics memory may be sufficient if you're running Vista

    Hello

    Using the latest display driver (you can download it at toshiba), then you will have the option of frame buffer memory. The initially installed driver doesn't have this option. You will be able to use the memory of 128 MB for vga. If you put your L30 512 MB, you can use 256 MB of video memory. But I found no differences in the games between 128 MB and 256 MB.

    Hello

    If your card supports 128MB value then it should be possible to increase it.
    Check the properties of the graphics card. Use the advanced option.
    You should see the tab called "Frame Buffer"
    There, it should be possible to change the size of the AMU.

  • How to adjust shared video memory - R10/R600 teacher of Win7 32-bit size

    Hello

    I use two laptops in the business - R600 and R10. Both with Intel 4500 graphics card and shared video memory. Both win Windows 7 Professional 32 bit. In both cases the system of reserve 1 159 MB of video memory. As I do not play no matter what games, I don't need to lose an enormous amount of memory - I want to release as much as possible for the system and programs.

    For the purposes of the trial, I installed Win 7 Ultimate 64-bit. Surprisingly, it holds only 199MB of video memory - it looks like the issue of the BONE.

    Anyone know how I can reduce the size of the video memory under Windows 7 32 bit?

    Kind regards

    PAB 567

    As far as I know, this can be done manually and shared memory is controlled by the system.

    If you n t use it for games I n t see any problem here. I put t know what kind of activity you do with your laptop, but I can't imagine there is not enough memory to each day's activities.

    Is it not enough power for some operations or what?

  • Satellite L300-129 - how to increase the video memory (shared)

    Yesterday I bought TOSHIBA Satellite L300-129

    AND I WANT TO ASK SOMETHING:

    I want to share some memory to improve the proceedings of VGA card.
    I know that I need to do from the CONFIGURATION of the BACK but I can't and I need to improve my VGA card because the default is so so small... I want to give him some PART of MEMORY (RAM) SYSTEM

    PLEASE I NEED HELP

    THANK YOU GUYS;

    Hey Buddy

    Unfortunately, I doubt that you can allocate a portion of system memory to video memory manually. AFAIK this sharing process is controlled by the driver for graphics card and all run automatically.

    On the other hand the graphics card driver could assign more memory for video card if the system memory could be upgraded.
    In other words the higher system RAM superior video RAM.

  • Satellite 2450-201: how to increase the video memory from 32 to 64 MB?

    Can anyone help? I looked in the Bios and the advanced settings screen, and found nothing to increase the size of the video memory.
    Any other way to find on my Satellite 2450-201

    Hello

    As far as I know that the unit has been delivered with the NVidia GeForce4 420Go 32 MB graphics card. This isn't a memory sheared graphics card.
    The card supports the own memory and not a function of memory sheared.
    In this case, you cannot change the value of memory.

    My labtop is TOSHIBA L50-B940 with 8 GB RAM and AMD radeom with windows 8.1 graphics card, 64-bit

    the problem is that the dedicated video memory is 0MB and I could not increase it

    I asked my friends a guy TI and nobody could help me and I tried to increase it from the BIOS as my friend but my bios setting is limited, so I ask you to help me solve this problem, I can't play for example: unit of creed Assassin before solving this problem

    and please teach me how to solve this problem step by step

    Thank you

    Hi Sami

    As far as I know it works automatically and there is no option where you can set it manually.
    This option does not exist in the BIOS.

    You know it's always a problem with portable machines. Video more power means more heat and due to a specific design and cooling system which can be very risky for the portable machine etc. is all this a little... different.

  • Satellite L20-100: how to increase the video memory?

    Hello
    pls help me! I have this laptop, and I want to increase the video memory from 8 MB to 128 MB, because for the moment its share only 8 MB. How to do this?
    I am grateful for!

    Hello

    the machine cannot tell what size memory it should use. He has the ability to use 128 MB. But he will not use memory that is really necessary. So if you don't play games 3D or something like that, you don't need as much memory video.

    USB ports (2) do not work after the downgrade from vista to Windows xp family. All the drivers downloaded from Toshiba Web site.

    You definitely need to update the Win XP OS

  • Satellite L845D - how to increase shared video memory (AMD APU)

    I have a 512 MB to 1 GB, but I have no option in the BIOS. In desktop APU systems, it is possible, since there is an option in the BIOS. Should I kind of updated, unlocked or BIOS 'hacked '?

    Thanks in advance

    BIOS hacked?
    Forget buddy... don't even think about BIOS hacks... something like that (if possible) would be detrimental to your unit... certainly...

    Shared memory cannot be increased manually... it is controlled by the graphics driver and especially depends on the main memory... in some cases, the shared memory will increase after RAM upgrade...

  • Satellite L30-105 Dual Boot with XP Possible

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L30-105, and while I do not particularly like Vista, I need to keep it for various reasons. However, I must also now use the laptop with a piece of hardware (a North G2 synthesizer) who does no Vista drivers.

    So I think the best thing I can do is to create a dual boot system, but a lot of articles on the net say you need from your CD original Vista, and of course the laptop does not come with one.

    So what I want to do possible? And there at - it a guide for how to do this? I have an XP license and the CD that I can use for this.

    Hello

    I installed the XP and Vista on my laptop.
    It was a little difficult because the XP installation crushed the Vista MBR (master boot record) and the Boot Manager.
    But I solved it by using the original CD of Vista. I had to borrow from a friend.

    I booted from CD of Vista and it repaired the Vista Boot Manager.
    Then I installed the tool called EasyBCD and set up the Vistas Boot Manager.

    That helped get XP and Vista on two different partitions.

  • Satellite L30-105 does not recognize the 1 GB of additional RAM

    Hi there I hope someone can help me

    I have a Satellite L30-105 PSL33E, which came with 1 GB of ram installed (2 x 512 MB made by TeamViewer)
    and it's terribly slow with vista, not to mention programs.
    The toshiba website says max RAM is 2 GB, so I bought a Kingston 1 GB ram chip to increase the ram to 1.5 GB. I thought should try before moving to 2 GB

    However after installing memory vivid it's show still only 1 GB in windows and in the bios (894 + the rest for video). It has the latest available BIOS on the site 3.10, yet still does not recognize the chip.

    The chip is installed in the lower slot, including the original 512 at the top (closest to the keyboard)

    Are limited to only some of the Satellite of RAM?
    The old subjects indicate if kingston does not work try corsair.
    Other topics suggested to change slots
    Others suggest that it may have only two of the same ram chips in IE 2 x 512 or 2 x 1 GB, you may not have 1 of each

    Can anyone help? everyone knows about similar problems?

    I will not buy any more RAM to try different brands for the same issue to occur

    Hello

    The L30-105 is able to manage the 1024Mo modules in each location it should be able to update the RAM up to 2 GB.

    > Why the RAM 1 GB module cannot be recognized?
    Perhaps the two modules are not compatible with each other
    I would recommend using two identical modules of the same manufacturing
    I use Kingston modules, they are ok for me

  • Re: Need Satellite L30 - 105 Vista - power calibration error - new firmware

    Hey guys =)

    Ive got a Satellite L30-105 running a Vista 32 bit. And even if I try several different (Imageburn, Nero) burning software, and with the TDK - CD, I get an error in the burning software, saying "power calibration error".

    Satellite L30 - 105 (item number PSL33E-02S026N5), use a cd/dvd burner called MAST * a DVD-RAM UJ-850 s

    I wonder, can I download and install new drivers for my dvd player?

    I will also try to buy this "cleaning-cd", to try to clean the lens. cause I bought the laptop in 2007... then her grandmother as...

    But you guys don't have any what could be bad? Is it expensive to get a new cd/dvd drive for this laptop?

    Bravo and thank you!

    Hello

    Power calibration error means that the laser ODD lens cannot calibrate in the right position.
    Generally this has nothing to do with a firmware of drive but with the problem of equipment.

    In most cases, the CD/DVD drive must be replaced.

    I'm not sure how a new CD/DVD drive could be but the fact is that you cannot use any CD/DVD drive
    You need a compatible and such disc compatible and taken in charge could be ordered in a local ASP.

    Laughing out loud. You need a guide to the fool? Come on man ;)
    OK, here is my guide;

    Download the graphics driver for your model of laptop.
    Unzip the package.
    Access to the Device Manager, then mark the graphics card driver update.
    Then a new window will open.
    You must use the second advanced option.
    Then choose the option called Don t research. I will choose the driver (or something like that)
    Point to the place where the driver package was stored on the HARD disk and complete the installation.
