Satellite L670-12J - external graphics card?

Hello

I recently asked a question on a grpahics card upgarde on my laptop which is a L670-12J

The answer is, but I was wonderin' is it possible to add external graphics on this laptop?

Hi JWG1234,

I put t know if an external graphics card will work, but the fact is that the monitor internal is already taken by internal graphics card.

I think that this external card works with external monitor only, in my opinion it not very useful.

Why do you need a new graphics card? If you need it for games that I recommend the purchase of a laptop Qosmio. They are perfect for multimedia games and especially 3D. :)

  • Satellite A350D-10Y - failure of the external graphics card?

    Hello guys,.

    I have a toshiba Satellite A350D-10Y and I get some sounds of the sound system of the laptop, but a kind of Mermaid on the mother, accompanied by lights driver dvd, map emitte acoustics is two short beeps. I'm getting these two short beeps loops within a period of 5 seconds +-.

    I downloaded a video for you, to listen to the sound emitted by the MB, in the end you can hear better because you get less noise from the cpu fan:

    Feature of the motherboard: ATI external graphics card

    Things I've done:
    -Remove the battery and try to put on without it.
    -Switch of RAM on the slot a RAM
    -Clean cpu fan one its exhaust
    -Change is the motherboard on a new

    Now, the problem was taken up to, or is the processor or the external graphics card.

    I think that the problem of the graphics card, because if these was a problem of the processor, I'd get the audio system of the laptop beeps and not a buzzer next to the MB.

    Can anyone here help me?

    From my point of few it of not possible to say what s wrong with the laptop without running certain diagnostic tests and check the part.

    The often shorter and emits a beep when turning procedure appears due to the POST (power on self-test) failure.

    This essential POST routine determines the available memory real quantity and checks for the presence of required hardware components.
    In case one of the hardware components would be defective, the power on self test could not be transmitted correctly and the laptop would begin to create some beeps.

    If you are sure that the modules of memory so that the card mother isn't affected, then one of the pieces referred to as CPU / GPU can be the troublemaker.

  • Use of the external graphics card with Satellite A205-s4797

    Also, can I use this external graphics card, it's "Asus XG Station", with my laptop, Satellite A205-s4797?

    Why not???

    If it s possible to plug this card into the laptop, then I see no serious reasons why you shouldn't t be able to use it.

    But as much as I know as the external card can only be used with the external display (monitor) because the portable computers internal display is already taken by internal graphics card.

    Sometimes a reboot solves the problem. I rebooted about 10 times now and its stil the same.

    Hey Buddy,

    As wrote Akuma, please connect an external monitor to check if the problem is graphic or screen associated.

    Also make sure that display latest Toshiba driver (not Intel) is installed. All drivers provided by Toshiba are pre-tested and works well on the laptop.

    Last but not least: are you using pre-installed Windows version, or you have installed your own version?

  • External graphics card?

    So I have an iMac late 2012, and the graphics card is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 512 MB of 660M. Is it possible at this level, or even buy an external graphics card?

    Unfortunately, you can not put this iMac.If you want a more powerful graphics card, your only option is to buy a newer model, the new iMac or Mac pro both can be configured with the far superior graphics power

  • Satellite L670-12J - becomes inadmissible constantly

    Hello

    My Satellite L670-12J new running Windows 7 64 bit freezes constantly, usually a few minutes after the start of almost every time I turn it on. It becomes inadmissible: I can't change the application, view the Task Manager or activate the start menu. The mouse cursor moves, but displays the wait icon and I can't click anywhere. The hard drive light flashes on a regular basis, a quick flash once a second about.

    It does not appear to be linked to a specific program that I am running. I can get when the computer is idle or when I run a random application.

    The only way to recover from it turn the computer off (press and hold power for a few seconds). Once it restarts, it works without problem until the next time I turn it on.

    As I bought this week yet, should I go back to the dealer and ask for another or is there something I can do to fix this?

    Thank you
    Luis

    Hello

    Usually, these gels can be related to a hardware or software problem. You have installed all drivers for software once you've got the laptop?

    In General, before returning the laptop, you must reinstall Windows using Toshiba recovery disc. The disc can restore factory settings and if it s just a software problem, it will be fixed after reinstalling Windows.

    Otherwise you need the service help :(

  • Bluescreens and satellite L670-12J slow start

    Hello
    I have a new laptop and the ends of the return policy 27 so I need quick help here.
    Got a new laptop from Amazon nearly a month ago.
    Toshiba Satellite L670-12J with 64-bit Windows. Processor i5, 4 GB memory and 500 GB hard drive.

    Since I got it, every time I turn it on it shows a black screen with a _ in the upper left corner of the screen. It takes 30 seconds to 2 minutes before it makes it to the login screen. It should not take anywhere near that for a laptop with these specs.

    In addition, there many Bluescreen. Sometimes a few times a week to 5 times a day. It's completely cause and that the computer is running any specific program when it occurs. It happened even when the laptop did nothing. I scanned it a few times with Windows and other programs, but they have never found anything.

    The blue screen remains upward on the screen for a few seconds then closes its doors until I read this.
    Even though I remember reading something like KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR. Or something like that, but then I had a different message the next time (I think). Sometimes he says things about the MEMORY, but it is so fast that I can not read properly.

    As far as I know the latest drivers are installed and the latest version of the BIOS is installed.

    I really need your help guys and fast. Thank you.
    Ewen :)

    Hello

    After reading your ad I can't say for sure what the problem is here, but the best thing you can do is to install the OS by using the recovery disk (F8 at startup) mode or use recovery DVDs if you have created a.

    Reinstall the OS and test or two days with preinstalled OS clean and without some additional software. If the problem persists the best thing you can do is to contact the nearest service Toshiba and ask for help.

    I mean what you can do if the problem persists with the factory settings?
    Something like that shouldn't happen.

  • Satellite L670-12J - need to install the tablet on laptop buttons

    Hello

    I have the problem "tablet buttons are not installed on this computer.
    I have connected a drawing tablet, but cannot access the settings of the Tablet because of this.

    I don't know which driver should I install, can someone help me please?

    Thank you.

    To be honest, I think that this isn t Toshiba related issue.

    I mean the laptop satellite L670-12J seems to work fine and you have only a problem with the installation of a 3rd party drawing device.

    In my opinion, you should check the support page of the tablet manufacturer how to get this working of the unit.

    Maybe, you need to install some software/driver that is provided by the developer of the Tablet?

    Check it!

  • External graphics cards

    Hello.

    I was wondering if someone could help me with external graphics cards. I don't know anything about them. I have an Ideapad Y650. Any help is appreciated.

    Sorry I do not well understand what you mean by.

    I did a test on can you run for Starcraft 2 beta.

    The most cost-effective way to upgrade is actually to get the vidock DIY and an ATI 5770. But the drawback here is that the game should be run by an external monitor.

  • Re: Satellite L670-12J - graphics card update possible?

    Hello

    Recently, I had to run some simulations in my laptop and my media Accelerator, Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator HD struggles for simulations of the same base.

    I want to add a card in my laptop, we know all compatible versions of graphics card that can be added, something around 1 GB atleast if possible.

    Thank you

    JW

    Hello

    Such an upgrade is not possible, mate. The graphics card is attached to the motherboard and so you can t Exchange it. It s not as easy as on the desktop due more small form factor.

    For simulations or games to say let s you should purchase a Qosmio laptop because they are specially designed for this type of applications. They are really great and fast. :)

  • Satellite X 200 - 21R - graphics card problem

    Hello

    When I start my laptop Satellite X 200 - 21R, there are three successive beep (3 x) and the screen is black.

    Apparently, it's the graphics card NVIDIA 8600GT DUAL SLI, it is defective.
    It is a montage of special graphics (SLI) card with 2 x GPU 8600 connected in parallel.

    If I disconnect the connection in parallel (unplug the two cards) and I can only connect one (to find the card that is dead)?
    It is possible and it is functional for the laptop?

    Thank you for your help

    To be honest, I can't imagine if it would be possible...
    Generally, any change of material must be accepted and supported by the BIOS and as much as I know any GPU changes would affect the BIOS as well as the features of the laptop.

    From my point of few to get the workbook, you must use exactly the same GPU chip, which was built in the laptop... but this seems to be a very expensive affair

  • Satellite Pro P300 - update graphic card and CPU

    I have a Satellite Pro P300 and I was wondering if the CPU or the graphics card can be improved?

    I really like my laptop, but an upgrade is imminent and before I take the plunge I just want to see if it is all options other than a new laptop.

    Hello

    Processor and graphics card update is not supported and there is no list with compatible processors. If everything is on your own risk. In the worst case a new processor will not be recognized from the motherboard or BIOS, probably you need a new module of cooling too so I wouldn t this

    In addition, the graphics card is attached to the motherboard and cannot be exchanged.
