Satellite P100-187 - new graphics card update

Looks like my gfx on my laptop is dying. I can't enter windown with gfx drivers installed (black screen after the victory logo).
Can enter windows if I uninstall the drivers of gfx in safe mode.
By starting a few colors become pink and there are 2 vertical stripes of light on the screen (2cm wide, and is not disapere)

There's an MXM II on the motherboard to be able to replace the gfx with a nVidia GeForce 8600 M GT 512 MB DDR2 MXM II best or should I get a new Go 7600.

What worries me is if the laptop could get overheated with the 8600M GT.

cordially Natal

Hello

I'm not a computer genius, but maybe I can help you...

If you see these scratches even in the BIOS screen, then probably your graphics card is fried. If the glitches only occur under windows, then try to download the original graphic drivers for satellite P100-(shortmodelno) of: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU (if you don't know no short model of your laptop, you can learn it from Toshiba Tempro program) and then start windows in safe mode, uninstall graphics drivers after that restart windows, and install the drivers you downloaded. If it still does not work, try to reset your computer to factory by the recovery disc. And if you're still having problems, then I am afraid your computer may have a hardware failure and you would need to send it to repair.

Moreover, as long as you do not play video games or use any other application 3D for long periods Geforce 8600 M GT should not overheat your laptop.

Hope that helps...

    I presume you didn't search forum discussions on upgrading graphic I'm right?
    In all threads, you can always find the same info; No, that s is not Possible!
    Mobile computer technology is just different, an upgrade to the graphics card can not be done!

    Laptops are very useful due to the portable but mobile use cannot be upgraded like current desktop PC.

    Why nvidia 7900 GPUs is not available in the p100 to the United Kingdom? Europe & Middle East the 7900gs is available in the continent. The 7900 gtx in the States is available.

    Why?

    I studied a little bi and found these P100 units with the graphic card nVidia 7900.

    Satellite P100-426; P100-194; P100-191; P100-196; P100-215; P100-222

    I found three different cards which were delivered with the P100:
    NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900; GeForce Go 7600 and Intel 945GM Express

    Anyway, the P100 is a new laptop and eventually you can't buy it in every store, but in my opinion several times this unit should be available in the United Kingdom with the GeForce Go 7900

    Toshiba drivers are quite old compared to the generic drivers from Nvidia, but I read that I should only use the Toshiba drivers.

    So Toshiba never updates its graphics drivers, or am I stuck with the same driver for the life of the computer?

    This common problem of s with portable machines. Manufacturers of portable don t offer display drivers updated. All this is quite complicated because of the design of laptops and cooling system.

  • Satellite A100-564: need a newer graphics card driver

    Hello

    I can't update my Ati 200 M display only to the 6.14.10 driver and pilot it is very old.
    I found a new driver on the ATI homepage but it doesn't work. Only the driver of Toshiba work.
    Both are very old? I try more than 10 drivers.

    The pilot on Toshiba.com support is 8.126 but pilot 2D and the driver control is only 6.14.
    But why can't download a driver from ATI.COM?

    And quick question; can I change in my satellite A100-564 more graphics card?

    Here, two short answer;

    (1) drivers from the ATI websites are NOT designed for mobile graphics cards equipped in Toshiba laptops.
    You can find this info on the ATI page:

    + All pilot and technical support for the products are provided by the original manufacturer of the notebook or laptop. Drivers are available for download at ati.amd.com are for products of office only. +

    Graphics driver Toshiba are specially designed for Toshiba laptops and it is very important that you use these drivers to avoid overheating of the material and damage!

    (2) the mobile graphics cards are not expandable. The chips are fixed and especially welded on the map and can be removed easily.

    Good bye

  • Qosmio G10 with the new graphics card and pcb - CD update tools do not work

    Hello world

    I hope you can help me. Before a few weeks, I received my Toshiba Qosmio G10 return of aid, because the laptop no longer works. So I get it back with a new graphics card and a new PCB. With my laptop I have a CD called the update tool CD and a sheet of instructions, where it says to start with this tool CD-Rom update after you have installed the Windows with the reovery CD.

    So I did, but when I know the update tool CD to put in and I start with it, the computer installs something, but after a short then it is a message that it is a different model and that I have to put a button to close Notepad. So I did it, but Windows does not start.

    Why is it so? I had done everything that has been said on the instruction sheet.

    Please help me

    Hello

    It will be interesting to find more information on this CD-Rom tool update. Are there tags Toshiba? Can you please write what is described here?

  • I think that I need a new graphics card for my Satellite M70 343

    Hello

    I had problems with my laptop. After a start-up time specifications and give a problem with the IALMRNT5 pilot report. The laptop also gives some display problems, after a certain time, then another graphic resolution is displayed.

    I have restored the software but is not a solution and also I downloaded the drivers from the Toshiba Support Site!
    I think the graphics card to give problems.
    Where can I buy the new graphics card?
    Installed: Intel 915GM/GMS, 910MS Express smart card.

    Hello

    It s not possible to exchange the VGA card in your system, since the VGA is soldered on the motherboard (the most important thing of your laptop on which all components are on) and if you have a problem with your graphics card then you should contact a local service partner authorized, due to a hardwarecheckup or a repair of your device.

    To find the closest just check the following link:

  • Is satellite A10 - possible to install the new graphics card?

    Hello

    I have a videocard Satelite A10, 2.2 Ghz, 712 MB of RAM, provided with your computer.

    I just bought the Sims 2 and thought from the specifications that I would be able to play on my current card. However when I try to run it it gets to the intro screen and then hangs when it is ready to go into the Menu. My first impressions are that I don't have a pretty good graphics card.

    I need a 32 MB T & L capable card so can someone confirm if this is why it would not work on the system.

    If that's the case I'm looking to see if it is possible to install a new graphics card on the machine I want to play more games to date.

    the map I'm looking at is Sapphire ATI Radeon 9600 XT 256 MB AGP8X graphics card. It will work on the machine and it is likely to solve my problem?

    Thank you

    HI Jeff,

    In General, it is not possible to change the graphics card in your laptop. This is because the graphics cell are generally not a component separated (as with a normal PC), but generally a specific graphic chip attached to the motherboard so make the graphics a part of the laptop.

    At the same time, the graphics driver is normally a specially modified version will omit some of the more esoteric aspects of the normal driver to minimize the risk of overheating chip since it does not have its own cooling system. Given this, you will find probably than trying to load the latest graphic website manufacturers drivers (Nvidia, ATI, etc.) will not work, and you will therefore be limited to these pilots provided by Toshiba on their Web site.

    In order to get your copy of the SIMS 2 to run you need to omit or reduce some of the graphics settings in the game itself, or alternatively, you can try to use some of the graphics third-party drivers that are written to provide some of the omitted features of the original notebook drivers. Note that if you do that there is no guarantee that they won't cause your overheating graphics chip, even if I used the ATI Omega drivers for some time now without any problems. You can get them: -.

    Theoretically, you can pass the GPU if it is not integrated. However, Toshiba does not approve the Cpu/gpu upgrade:

    Anyway, if you decide to update, contact center service before and ask them about Gpu compatibility.

  • Can I put a new graphics card and power supply in my computer.

    Hey all, I have the model P7-1459 and it is good, but I was hoping maybe give him a boost of game. But I was not able to know if she could handle what I want to do. The new graphics card would require a 450W power supply, and I do not know if this model could handle. Anyone know of a way or another? Need help.

    Joshua, you are welcome!

    I'm sorry that I misunderstood your question.  I thought that you wanted to know if the computer would process the card.

    Yes, you can upgrade the power supply (PSU).  I suggest to measure the PSU existing and comparing these measures to the one you choose.  I love OCZ and Corsair.  They will provide quality amateur with a reasonable price.  A good video card requires a clean and stable power supply.  I recommend at least 500W; 550W at 600W would be even better.  This would allow for future updates.  The computer uses only the amount of energy needed to operate the components.

    I hope this helps.

  • Windows, 3 beeps and new graphics card will not start

    Hello

    has obtained a HP p6-2105eo, windows 7. At a radeon HD 5670 graphics card that works very well. Bought a Gigabyte GeForce GTX650 2 GB. Can see screen start and seems it does not respond by clicking the Esc key. I hear 3 beeps with a delay of 20 to 30 seconds after each beep. After several minutes (2-3 minutes), the screen goes black with a command prompt flashes at the top of the screen on the left and nothing more.

    Think it might be damaged the card, so went to the store and got me a Gigabyte GeForce GTX660 OC 2 GB instead. The same problem.

    Also updated to the latest version of the available for my motherboard BIOS to: 2012-08-14, Version7.16 Rev A, 2.87 M

    Also already replaced at a 700W PSU, so that it can handle the best graphics cards.

    So, what could the problem with the recent graphics cards in this office?

    After numerous tests, such as reset cmos, bios reset, outside and inside with battery and so on... Nothing solved.

    Re-tested with the old graphics card and started immediately.

    After intensive research on Google, the BIOS is probably still too old to the new graphics card.

    Yesterday, I replaced the motherboard and the problem disappeared. Works fine now with the new card.

    Will use the older motherboard in an old computer instead, it isn't a total waste to replace.
