Satellite M30 - graphics driver

New software loaded on my laptop has warned against "...". your graphics card requires an updated driver. The driver I have is an Nvidia GeForce FX Go5200. Could someone tell me what is the last and how I get it. I'm not technie! so I hope it's simple! Also, what is a BIOS? (I told you I was non-technie!)
Thanks GillW

Hi the gills.

The latest driver for your graphics card is version 46,44 and you will need to check which version you have currently (in Device Manager). It is likely that you already have this version installed since the release date is May 2004.

The BIOS is a small program which is held on the CMOS chip on your motherboard and it is responsible for managing the peripherals basic functions of your laptop so that your operating system can go from your currently running applications. The BIOS is loaded on startup of power you on your laptop and before the operating system itself.

Kind regards

  • Satellite C660 Graphics Driver does not update

    I currently have the 8.15.10.2189 Intel HD Graphics driver version and want to upgrade to 8.15.10.2353 driver but everytime I download, unzip the file and open the file, it will extract and request "do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer" I click on "Yes" and then it disappears and nothing happens at all. I've waited long to see if something happens, but nothing happens.

    Any info on why he is not update would be great.

    I also noticed that the same Version of driver on different models of Toshiba Satellite has a different file size, I was wondering if I should download and try to install on my C660 because I assume that they would all be the same update of the driver. I don't know why they would be a different file size.

    Thanks for any info.

    Can you please tell us what C660 you exactly (C660-xxx)?

  • Satellite M30: Hard drive extremely slowly

    Hello!

    I'm from Germany, so excuse my mistakes!

    A few months ago, I bought a used satellite M30 laptop. I'm right with the seller on the guarantee, because he said it has 1.5 years and then it should still be under warranty.

    Now my problem is that the hard drive (Toshiba MK6021GAS) became very slow. It's playback with a speed of only 2.5 MB/sec. I tested it with HD Tune tool. I already checked on the internet and it should be much faster. My extern harddrive has a speed of around 28-30 MB/sec, so I use most of the stuff on this one for now.

    I would like to know if there is still hope to fix (perhaps even by myself) or if I have to buy a new hard drive.
    There are 2 remarkable things I've done, which may have an influence on it.
    1. the seller in portable format whole before selling it, so I had to use the recovery CDs system to make it work again.

    2. I changed one of the blocks of 256 MB of RAM with a 512 MB RAM block, that I bought for my previous laptop. I checked if the new RAM worked well and the list of hardware as it shows correctly.

    Hello

    The RAM will be shown, but are you sure that the new module has the same bus as the original speed?

    I recommend you to preinstall the device with the recovery media and check the HARD disk activity. Also, test it without second RAM. If the HARD disk is running slowly again contact the Service partner and let them verify properly. If the disk dies HARD drive will be replaced.

  • Satellite M30x: Graphics driver ATI Catalyst to move

    Hello

    I've read another post about a person not being able to play a game because it cannot update ATI drivers. Now, I have the same problem. Half Life 2 has recently updated and since then, I need to update my gfx card drivers. However, the only driver I can install is the Toshiba one (on the cd). This helps not at all, because this driver is 2004 and I need to install the catalyst 6.1 or later.

    I hope you guys have an idea on what to do! Thanks for reading :)

    Hello

    The fact is that the Toshiba drivers are designed especially for the use of the laptop.
    The original ATI drivers are made for the use of desktop PC and cannot be used on the laptop. The use of any graphics driver Toshiba can damage the laptop.
    I read that sometimes drivers graphic omega can solve graphic problems but if you use any other drivers you can do at your own risk.

  • Satellite A300 - Graphics Driver update needed

    Hello

    I am writing this hoping someone from Toshiba will be able to help me to find and update for laptop Satellite A300, short model: PSAJ4E.
    I am running Windows 7 (64 bit) and Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) on another partition.

    I noticed I was encountering problems more often because of the graphics card is not not to date.
    I am looking for an update for the ATI Radeon HD 3650 series.
    I checked the AMD for and to update, but it seems that most cell phone manufacturers do not want to distribute updates. They had however an update for the ATI Radeon HD 3xxx series in December 2010, but the following comment wrote:

    Following books are not compatible with this version: *.

    All laptops launched after this version of the driver
    Portable computers compatible switchable graphics card using Intel® chipsets.

    This comment is in the following link: [AMD | http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/AMDCatalyst1012ReleaseNotes.aspx]

    And before someone sent it to me in the updated drivers from Toshiba on the following link: [Toshiba | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory = 2 & selFamily = 2 & selSeries = 153 & selProduct = 781 & selSho rtMod = 697 & language = 13 & selOS = 30 & selType = all & yearupl = DST & monthupload = & dayupload = & useDate = null & mode = all Machines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = all & selectedLanguage = 13 & type = all & page = 1 & ID = 68813 & DISO = 30 & driverLanguage = 42]

    I checked and the update on the Toshiba site is the previous update... it has the * version 8.634.1 * and AMD is at version * _8.801_* with their AMD Catalyst 10.12 software suite.

    I know laptops are not updates as much as a normal desktop pc, but it would be nice to receive updates that came out for the products that we bought.

    If possible could someone direct me, so that I can get the driver for Windows and Ubuntu?

    Kind regards

    I have my carpet and M30 * one dvd not read or burn dvd - rw. Tried driver implemented to date, but without operating. Help, please!

    Hi Khalifa,

    Until you can play a DVD - RW on your M30 the DVD must be finalized. In order to record on a blank DVD - RW the drive must be formatted first (using something like Nero INCD). If all goes well, then you should be capable of both wathch and burn DVD - RW discs. :-)

  • Satellite Pro Graphics Driver - OpenGL version low-income L870 question

    Trying to recover a part of my working on my new L870 3D graphics software, he complains that the opengl version is too weak at 1.1. The ATI HD 7670 M supports up to 4.1.

    I downloaded realtech VR OpenGL extensions Viewer, it also reports OpenGL 1.1. He also pointed out under "GDI Generic" rendering, but it should be "ATI Radeon 7670 M" I think that (judging by the post [here | http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2487900]).

    The Catalyst Control Center seems to think that the card works well. So I tried to update the drivers to see if that helped. The latest drivers from Toshiba (8.982.7 - 120808 a 14704), the [zip file | http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/display-20121023172326.zip] is damaged (checksum fails), and he tells me that previous drivers (8.982.10.6 - 120918 a) are already installed.

    Any suggestions to get OpenGL > 1.1 work would be appreciated!

    Thank you

    Hello

    OpenGL is an open standard API, but more often the DirectX designed by Microsoft is included in the graphics card driver for OpenGL enters the market of professional graphics, DirectX, DirectX is used primarily for computer games.

    However, if you need a driver supports OpenGL then you need a driver updated him from some 3rd party sources.

    ATI drivers can be downloaded from the page AMD directly or on sites like omegadrivers.net
    But use at your own risk.

    In addition, to install these drivers, you will need to use a special procedure. I mean by special procedure installation via the Device Manager where you could choose the driver manually.

  • Satellite M30 - what compatible HARD drive can I use?

    Hello

    My Satellite M30 hard drive crashed (after 3 years of intensive use). I would like to replace it, but I don't know which drive is suitable (SATA, ATA 6... etc). The original for this computer hard disk is the MK6021GAP.

    Can someone hep me on this subject? By the way, is - it complicated to replace the hard drive on this computer?

    Thank you

    Use the advanced search of this forum and you will get several results with different threads on the same topic.
    The replacement is not difficult. At the bottom f the unit, you will find a HARD drive Bay. Armand, remove the cover and cut the shape of the disk of the controller. But be careful.

  • Satellite M30 - problem with the graphics driver and Quicktime movies

    I just installed a 40 GB to 80 GB hard drive and installed all the drivers in the correct order, as indicated by toshiba. Everything works well except the used for Quicktime .mov files. All I get is audio but no image - other than a colorful blur screen!

    I think I've isolated the problem to the graphics driver. Whenever I turned off / uninstall the driver dedicated for the graphics card FX 5200 GP (version 4.6.44) Quicktime files work fine. It is only when I installed the dedicated driver problems occur!

    Can someone tell me why this might be?
