  Hello Dorfi

  As you know that Linux is not supported by Toshiba and if you want to install it, you're on your own. Unfortunately, I have no much experience with Linux, but try it please visit the Toshiba Linux. You can find it under

• Satellite M70 runs for several seconds and then hangs

  Hello

  I have a Satellite M70. My problem started several weeks ago with the laptop freezing. Then it blue screened a couple of times. Now when I start it, it runs for a few seconds and then hangs.

  I can't do anything because the screen is blank but the LED still show as if it was on. If I leave the phone for a day or two, and then I can start it again and the same thing happens, but if I try to start immeadiately, the screen remains blank.

  Any help would be appreciated, I had company look and they said that the LCD screen was tired, but it is not if it lights.
  Also, I tried to plug in an external monitor and it's the same thing. PLS help

  Hello

  Here in the forum we can only speculate what may be the problem. I don't think anyone can say for sure why this happens. I got BSOD a few times but always after installing some shareware applications. In my case it was clearly software related issue.

  It is not easy to say why this is happening to you. You can enter the BIOS settings? Try to start your computer laptop in safe mode, just to see if it works.

• On Satellite M40-223 some games make the display freeze

  Hello
  I have a Satellite M40-223 with an Ati Radeon X 600 is.
  Some games (such as shockwave, world of warcraft games or never)
  Winter Nights 2) make freeze display and the crash of the laptop
  (accidents do happen after the same amount). I downloaded the drivers
  on the toshiba site (16/11/05, 6.14.10.6534 drivers) and nothing has
  has changed. Then I downloaded the latest drivers from the ati site
  (http://ati.amd.com/online/mobilecatalyst/) and removed the older
  (following the instructions of ati). The display freezes always but
  Sometimes the VPU recover the previous session.
  What should I do?
  I will try to uninstall these drivers and install the ones toshiba
  Once again? When I installed the drivers from toshiba for the first
  I did use uninstaller first, time could this affect the most recent configuration?

  I will try to use the omega drivers?

  Hello

  It s not advised not to use the graphics driver from Toshiba. The other drivers don't support the overheating protection. The games are a high performance programs. If these applications are running on the laptop all devices must operate with maximum performance and produce a lot of heat. The high temperature could be responsible for this gel and close downs.

  I read in the forum that you can install the other drivers (not Toshiba) at your own risk.
  I think you should check the fans for dust and debris.
  Sometimes the cooling modules may not cool properly because the dust and, therefore, these problems occur.
  Additional do not forget that there is enough free space around the laptop to the airflow correctly

• When I'm playing games like Fifa07 Satellite M40-129 freezes

  When ia´m to play games like Fifa07 my phone freezes from time to time. I have a Satellite M40-129 with the latest version of the driver 6.14.10.6525.

  I get the error message (German): http://img265.imageshack.us/img265/2337/grafikkartentreiberdf9.png

  Dxdiag: http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/2250/grakatreiberup4.jpg

  Isn't there anything I can do to avoid those who freezes.

  Hi Sascha

  Is the laptop freezes only when you play this special game or it freezes by other applications, games, etc?
  Don t know exactly why it happens, but if the laptop freezes only during playback the Fifa07 then it might be a problem of compatibility of graphics driver with this game.

  Do you use the graphics driver for the Toshiba page?

• Satellite M40-265 LCD displays the image complete but crushed

  Satellite M40-265 LCD displays the image complete but crushed on two-thirds of the screen

  When my Satellite M40 - 265 ATIMobility Radeon X 700 and omega 3.8442, Windows Xp drivers, Sp3 boots by setting the LCD + analog RGB, initially only displays on the external screen after startup can be switched with Fn + F5 on LCD. Then appears on the LCD, the complete picture but only two thirds of the screen, third, the right is black. It works so well when the external monitor is not connected during the boot.

  When defini set to auto, select the display to the computer starts only when an external monitor is connected, then after that, I spent in the LCD screen.
  Damage to the inverter is excluded as already checked. Inspect visually the cable of the LCD displays nothing. Beside the left speaker, a ground wire (black) to screwed, but it is s t connected anywhere.

  Starting in safe mode is possible to use a display fullscreen on external

  Hello

  The M40 is a not sure oldie about the available settings in the BIOS and in the graphics options, but I think you should check the settings of the graphics card ATI Catalyst.
  I remember that ATI catalyst supports certain options such as resizing the Image. Here you can select the image scale Panel option full size
  In addition, you must set the resolution on the internal screen at native resolution of 1280 x 800
  I think that the external monitor supports the resolution, which is not the same thing as the screen internal.

• Satellite M70-339: playing a video display freezes seconds every 10 seconds

  When I play a video/dvd, etc. display sticks / freezes for a split second every 10 seconds or more. This happens when I have something to play online or one of my own CD. It does on all software (Windows Media, Real Player, etc.).

  It seems to be a driver of anything, but I can't be sure.
  It is certainly very annoying!... and seems to be getting more noticeable. Would appreciate any help I can't find anything else on the web that explains why this happens.

  Thank you
  Jim

  You may need to update the graphics driver.

  But can I ask for more details?
  What cell phone do you have? What operating system do you use?

• Display and graphics with my Satellite P100-192 issues

  Hello

  I have following problems with my almost 3 year old Toshiba Satellite P100-192:

  In the last few weeks my latop ran very hot when I played games or used another difficult software.

  Last week, the computer began to freeze the screen for a while and then the screen turned black and I had to reset. When I start now my laptop screen TOSHIBA and Windows startup screen has some vertical stripes in reds or roses. After starting the Windows retains the turnes black screen and I can't do anything.
  When I start Windows mode safed scratches are still there but the system works well.
  Now, I have thought that I have a software, the driver or the virus problem and formatted the HARD drive with the TOSHIBA recovery disks. After decomprimating I thought I can install Windows XP, but the black screen is back and it is so impossible to reinstall.

  What should I do now? Is my graphics card fault? Why everything worked well in safed mode?

  Please help me!
  Thank you very much!
  David

  Hello!

  It's strange, but I think it might be a graphics card problem.
  In safe mode without driver will be loaded and this could be the reason why you have this problem only in normal mode.

  Also, have you tried an external monitor? Maybe it's a question of s only a LCD internal.
  Check it!

  I doubt that it of a virus or something else because you have used the recovery disk and it erases the entire HARD disk.

• Satellite M40: Where the graphical utility to display the WLan?

  I got the Satellite M40 system after some disk problems, but then I couldn't find the graphical tool displays networks wireless in the vicinity.

  I searched among the drivers in the support page, but there is nothing that I could use. I would appreciate if someone had a direction where search - I don't know the name.

  I also have the original Toshiba recovery disks.

  Hello

  For WLAN and WIFI configuration you can use the Windows settings. In this case, under connection WLAN properties, you will find an option called display the icon in the tray... when it is connected you can see a small symbol shows the power of the signal.

  While you can do if you use the Intel wireless client. If you n t have one that I recommend you visit the Toshiba WLAN website under http://aps.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/

  You can find the most recent driver for your WLAN card including customer Intel wireless that allows you full control of your home network. Install this client and you'll get what you want.

• Satellite M40 (PSM40): where to find a NVidia display driver?

  On the way to update my driver, I uninstalled old, but the driver I found on the nVidia site will not work. (The error message: "Setup nVidia didn't find all the drivers that are compatible with your current hardware.) The installation program will now stop. »)

  I then searched a driver on the Toshiba site, but are all there drivers ATI or Intel. So, when I check my system, it does not find my video card (I use the method of debugging) and there is nothing other than the basic thing of VGA.

  It's scary because I know that you can not change the graphics card, and if I can't fix this, then I'm screwed. =/

  Video card: nVidia GEFORCE FX 6600 (which I can't find on the nVidia site)

  Hello

  Very strange can you please post you detailed name (number of your laptop)?
  I searched the Satellite M40 with graphics card nVidia but didn t find any model
  I also checked the Toshiba driver page and didn t find all the graphic drivers for the nVidia card.

  You will not be able to install the original graphics drivers on the graphics card manufacturing site because the graphics drivers from Toshiba are a bit changed.

  What drivers graphics omega? Have you tested it?

• Satellite A100 - 192 PSAA9: display black stills from time to time

  Hello

  Satellite A100 - 192 PSAA9 with card ATI X 1600.

  Despite the fact that I have installed the latest driver on Toshiba support site, screen darkens (off) from time to time for no apparent reason.

  I turn off the computer by pressing the button for a few seconds.

  When I turn on the computer, the screen is still dark, even if the computer starts.

  Only after I take the battery from the computer and on new and then turn on the computer, the screen is OK.

  I could not know if it's a hardware or software problem.

  Computer is one and a half years.

  I wanted to know if anyone has had such an experience before taking the computer to the service center.

  Do you use the Toshiba original pre-installed factory image?
