Satellite P750/05q - new graphics driver update?

I have a Toshiba Satellite P750/05q with a Nvidia GT540M graphics card.

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.

I'm afraid, you're right about m.

    Hello
    I found the new driver for the Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset (driver 15.11.3.1576) on the website of intel, but I can't install it because it's not original Toshiba.
    I'm doing this because we're on the website of toshiba is pilot about a year.

    Does anyone have an idea how to install the latest driver for my laptop Satellite U400-112?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Generally, you can install the drivers Toshiba not only at your own risk.
    So if something will go wrong because of drivers Toshiba not then your warranty does not cover this.
    So this was a brief info about drivers not Toshiba.

    Now how do I install the driver;
    You can do so from the Device Manager. Go to the Device Manager. Choose the graphics card and to update the driver. Then a new window should open. Then, choose the Advanced installation procedure. Then choose don't search. I will choose the driver. Then point to the new Intel driver downloaded and applied.

  • Satellite L40-139: new graphics driver is causing the problem after waking from sleep

    I have a three month old Toshiba Satellite L40-139 (PSL40E) with 1 GB of RAM with Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium pre-installed. This laptop worked very well for me for the basic headquarters far tasks, and I would have no problem recommending.

    In the last days I've updated the software and drivers from the Microsoft Update web site.

    Since the update driver Mobile Intel(r) 945 Express Chipset Family (to version 7.14.10.1350, dated October 18, 2007), the screen resolution at 800 x 600 after awakening from the sleep state. The only way I found to fix it is to restart the PC.

    Other articles published on the web, I understand that this particular driver (Mobile Intel(r) 945 Express Chipset Family driver 7.14.10.1350 version) has caused many other problems on a variety of hardware and software platforms.

    Does anyone have a definitive solution for Satellite L40?

    I looked at four options.

    1. let the new installed driver and restart Windows each time after waking up from sleep mode. Rather, I must not do this.

    2. using the Restore Point created by Windows Update before the update of the driver, roll back to an earlier time. This seems to be a good course if it works.

    3 download an older version of the driver and reinstall it. I don't know which version would work but note that others have had success with the 7.14.10.1280 version. I guess a similar version could be included in the driver Package that can be downloaded from Toshiba Europe site, but have heard that the time required to download this software can exceed ten hours and am therefore reluctant to try.

    4. the fourth option is not really possible. I should be able to "Roll-Back" the driver in Device Manager, but the button is disabled.

    Although only a minor problem, it is very irritating and I would like to address them without causing other problems. Does anyone else have this problem? Someone has fixed it successfully?

    Hello Peter

    If I understand correctly, you use your usual laptop for daily work and you don't need any computer high-performance notebook. If I'm right I have to say that you should be happy if the laptop works well and stable.

    I don't really see any reason why you wanted to update chipset driver. In any case, you should try to roll back the BONES of time earlier and I hope everything will work again. There is absolutely no risk, and you can test it.

    Please post the result.

  • Satellite C660 - 23 M - graphics driver update problem

    New to this forum, so don't know if this has been covered.

    Have installed Photoshop elements 11 and Prime Minister 11.
    Elements of program works ok but cannot get the items first to open the new project. Adobe advises trying to update the drivers I have tried without success.

    When running driver update on the laptop, it says last driver installed. 8.15.10.2189
    On the site of Toshiba update, it shows the later version 8.15.10.2353.
    Have downloaded this, I then unzipped it and it says will when you have completed the automatic installation to start but nothing happens.

    I tried several times but once unzipped it will not be installed.

    Any help would be appreciated and infact confirmation of the latest driver.

    Google suggested that I up date my permit, when I try to update from Intel, I get an error message telling me it was modified by the Assembly of the computer and communicate with them.

    Hello

    We know that you can not use drivers provided by graphics card manufacturers. Not for laptops. Display drivers are changed by laptop manufacturers to provide the balance between performance and protection of the equipment.

    What you can try is to check if Toshiba offers a newer driver for new models of portable computers.
    Please check on the Toshiba download page - http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    If you can find new display drivers for:
    Satellite L775 (PSK6DE)
    Satellite R700 (PT314E)
    Satellite Pro U630 (PSK01E)

    Please post comments.

The laptop is satellite 1000 - Z2. If so, where I can downloard the latest driver, thank you for your help in advance.

    To get the latest driver for your machine, you must visit www.intel.com for more recent drivers since your graphic chipset made by intel.

    If they have newer drivers, so you may have better performance, but that is not guaranteed. :)

  • 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.

    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...

    Hello

    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.

  • Satellite A300-RJ1 - cannot install the new graphics driver from Intel page

    Hello.

    Another problem.
    When I use the "integrated" Vista, I can not install the new graphics driver (intel inside).
    Whenever the error message: the driver is not validated by your system, please contact your producer.

    So if I install a clean windows, so I can install the new graphics driver: S and I want to install because it is much more recently than the preinstalled :(

    Hi mate

    You can install this driver, but you need to use different installation procedure.
    You must install it in the Device Manager.

    Here, you can choose Advanced Setup, then choose don't search. I will choose the driver, then point to the driver files that you have stored on the HARD disk and complete the installation.

    But note; I read here that the use of non-Toshiba drivers is always at your own risk

  • Satellite L650-12 q - Display driver update

    Hi everyone, I wonder if you could help.

    I recently needed to use Windows restore feature to return my laptop to an earlier time. The goal was to help me remove a virus, and it worked. I had an application that worked before restoration of my laptop, but it isn't now. I don't know if it's just a coincidence.

    I have been in contact with the program to ask what I can do to fix the problem and make sure that I can run the program. They told me to make sure that my graphics card drivers are up to date.

    This laptop has a built-in graphics card: Intel (r) HD Graphics (Core i5). I was on the Intel site and have tried to download the latest version, but I can't install it - a message tells me that he won't let me do it. If I remember well, it is because I have an integrated card and prevents me from installing the new driver protects my computer somehow.

    I've been on the Toshiba site, found my cell phone and then downloaded the drivers to display for my device. Here are the drivers to update the graphics card or something to do with the display of the screen (for example)?

    My DXdiag tells me that the driver of display devices is one supplied with the laptop Toshiba releasing those computers laptops (February):
    Driver attributes: Final retail
    Driver Date/size: 20/02/2010 08:24:24, 6523392 bytes

    Does anyone know if there is a new graphics driver as this one for my laptop model? Thank you for your help in advance and my apologies for the long post, but I felt that more information was better than too little!

    Hello

    He recommended s install the Toshiba display drivers because what they are pre-tested on your laptop. That s not an update of the original Intel drivers, Toshiba drivers are the same, but they are pre-tested and optimized for your laptop.

    Driver installation happens on your own risk

    So before installing all the drivers test with original Toshiba display drivers. Usually, this driver should work fine.

    If you have any other questions, just after again.

    Hello

    I got my new laptop for Christmas and a few days ago, HP support assistant told me that there was a Version "Intel high definition (HD) Graphics Driver Update": 10.18.15.4281Ep3.

    Thank you Daniel for answering my message. While the NVIDIA GEFORCE driver is an option, my driver is INTEL (R). I have since solved the problem by installing the BIOS update. Then, I was able to successfully install the graphics driver updated. Thanks again.

  • Intel GMA graphics driver update on the Satellite Pro U series

    I want to upgrade my graphics accelerator driver that is Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family.
    On the Intel website, I found this accelerator and new driver for Win XP OS that has been released 31.3.2009, its version is 14.38.3.5047.

    Although I can not install it because this driver is not verified by Toshiba and the site Web of Toshiba is the driver who is one (of course I have it) year old. So, is a way to install the new driver from Intel or can you please this verified driver?

    BTW, if the latest drivers are more than a year, it does not resemble the good support.

    Zdenek Konecny

    Hello

    I m using Intel drivers too and I n t have a problem to install.

    If you have tried to install the driver through setup.exe, you should try manual in Device Manager. Right-click on the graphic card > driver update. Use the Advanced installation step and choose the driver directory yourself.

    Before installing the driver, you must remove the older version first, and then restart the laptop.

    Good bye

  • Need new graphics driver for Satellite P200 - 14 H (PSPB6E)

    Hi all!

    I want to ask if there are graphics drivers for my P200 with Radeon 2600 HD / 512MB newer than 8.413.3 (which are almost year), because I can't find anything (I tried several of Toshiba and ATI download pages).

    Toshiba does not appear to update and all directly downloaded drivers from the ATI Web site keep stop installation with the error is not a correct for my VGA.

    I want to improve because I am trying to solve another problem related to 3ds max - since the 2008 version, I get only 5-6 fps in windows just in Direct3D mode (I really want to switch to OpenGL or software), but which began after a period of time, not just after the first installation.
    However, it retains today do this even after reinstallation of 3D Studio or even Windows itself. An update of the driver is probably the last thing that I did not.

    I'm running on WinXP SP3 (but this low fps problem appeared before SP3).

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello!

    You can download the normal ATI driver for graphics cards to office and then change with the Mobility Modder. Then, you can install the graphics driver.
    http://www.DriverHeaven.NET/modtool.php

    * But be careful! You could damage your graphics card. The driver has not a protection of overheating graphics card can be overheat.*

    There may be another solution as an update of DirectX.
