Satellite P850 - 31L think driver Intel HD GPU is old after Win 8.1 upgrade

Hello

I got my Satellite P850 - 31L since last year and recently updated to windows 8.1.

This laptop has a NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 640 M graphics card and this allows to say that about my dxdiag.
Since the update to windows 8.1 my laptop seems to think that I have an Intel HD Graphics 4000 and apparently it's expired.

When I go to their website to test the update.
I thought that my graphics card is "up-to-date", but everything else - including my driver toshiba manager says it's expired.

I tried to update but I get a message saying my system setting are not good enough.

Anyne have any suggestions on what I can do.
Can I get my laptop to stop thinking that there a graphics card intel when it has the NVIDEA chip

After upgrade Windows 8.1 you should visit the page of the Toshiba UE driver and should update drivers and utilities to version 8.1 of Windows.

Most people forget to do that they update the system of Windows 8 to 8.1 win but don't update the drivers.

As mentioned by user IronMan; the installation instructions located on the page of the Toshiba UE driver you shows the pilot and the tool that needs to be updated and you must also follow the order of installation referred to in this directive.

  • Satellite P850 - 31L PSPKFE - DirectX crashing

    Hello!

    I recently bought a:

    Satellite P850 - 31L
    Part number: PSPKFE-00P007EN

    and I'm very happy with the laptop overall. However, I have problems running 3 Crysis and Assassin Creed 3 on the device.

    In both cases, that they often crash to the desktop and are followed by a journal of events applications such as:

    The failing application name: crysis3.exe, version: 1.2.0.0, time stamp: 0x02f47040
    The failed module name: d3d11.dll, version: 6.2.9200.16420, time stamp: 0x505a95af
    Exception code: 0xc0000005
    Offset: 0x00068dd7

    Its pretty easy to see that the problem is related to DirectX 11 on the nVidia card.

    I have a laptop specifications lower HP with a 230M nVidia GeForce series running Assassin Creed 3 without problem (although it won't run Crysis 3 due to the lack of Dx11 support).

    I have tried to update the drivers for nVidia display current offical those on Satellite, but am prevented from doing so because of the soft lock used in Toshiba hardware.

    I am currently using the drivers of December on the Toshiba site.

    This isn't a problem with gambling, it is a driver problem. Referenced games are just as good as the test tools. Please don't move this post, it obscures the issue. Or Tosh he must release the lock or to update driver.

    Thanks in advance,

  • Satellite P850 - 31L - can't play game Hitman Absolution

    I tried to get Hitman Absolution working on my p850 - 31L with the 640 m from nVidia.
    I read a lot of topics about how updates to laptop not supported due to "problems of heating" which seems ridiculous, the game works very well until it crashes (can be within1min - 1 h).

    I recently bought this laptop & had with a dedicated nVidia GeForce GT 640 m map precisely to avoid this manufacturer cross!

    Tweaking not updated to point out the cards their overheating is very good, but I expect at least be updated to be compatible with the latest version of the software! The latest drivers are from last year?

    Why have a nVidia card & a laptop able to play the latest games if out-of-date drivers make it impossible to play?

    If this problem can be resolved or I'm looking for a suitable replacement where I bought my laptop?

    Of my knowledge Toshiba display drivers are modified for mobile use.
    Other manufacturers of graphics card drivers do not support protection against binge GPU.

    This means that using this driver allows the GPU to operate with higher performance but the heat dissipation would be too high and this causes a high temperature, GPU, resulting in overheating.

    As far as I know other manufacturers of portable don t care about this risk and allows the use of these drivers

  • Satellite C660 - latest graphic driver Intel is 2012

    Im trying to run a software on my laptop (the Zwift new cycling). The custom of executed product and the support team that I need to update my driver on my Satellite C660 - 64 bit Windows 7. The latest version I can find what I have. Is there nothing since? Do I have to upgrade my laptop?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Display driver update on mobile machinery is quite problematic. Because of the specific and limited design cooling system, the temperature must be all the time under control.
    New display driver means more performance and more performance means more heat, so in the worst case GPU may be damaged or your laptop often stops because of the critical temperature of material.

    In any case, I would check if the most recent driver is available on the Toshiba support page but you must put the name of the full model of your laptop (C660-xxx).

  • Satellite P850 - need WLAN Driver for Windows 8.1 64bits

    I have Satellite P850: I renewed my Kaspersky Internet Security and Windows update to 8.1 made 64 bit. Now, I have no wireless LAN driver. I can only connect to the internet through an ethernet cable.

    I searched high and low for 2 days looking for a solution. I want to keep all genuine Toshiba so not wanting to spread to other sites of questionable diagnoses. Toshiba has only Realtek WLAN for Windows 8 version 2.00.0020 available for download - which is already installed on my computer but it does not work - I have reinstall to see if that fixed the problem, but no.

    You will appreciate all help. Thank you.

    We can try to check the specifications of the laptop and search for drivers, but you must put the name of the full model P850-xxx.

    What is the status of the WLAN card in Device Manager?

  • Satellite P850 - 12 X - update Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260

    Hello

    I'm writing this information for those who want to upgrade their wirelss adapter inside the Intel 7260AC card dual band.

    This card functions perfectly on my Satellite P850-12 X, but you will need to cover the pin 20 with a piece of tape so that it works correctly. I installed this card in my laptop, installed the drivers etc, everything went well past shown in dev Manager without problems, but them was always a red x across wireless networks connections and nothing would show. After spending several days trying to figure out what the problem was, I came across this information I share now. I will not go, why you need to cover the pin20 which would take a whole new thread.

    The intel 7260 dual band wireless card works with incredibly fast speeds and has a capacity of Widi and bluetooth and is well recommended but iff after the installation of the card that you have similar problems, as I had then you now have the soloution I saved days of reasearch. All donations most wecome :)

    http://www.InsanelyMac.com/forum/topic/279398-solved-where-is-pin-20-on-a-WiFi-card/

    Hi Sam

    Thanks for sharing your experience.
    I just want to add that these updates is not supported by Toshiba and these updates probably will void warranty valid. This should know any owner of the laptop and do these updates on his own risk.
    With other words each of us must know this and make own decision how to handle this situation.

    In any case, I m happy to know that everything went well with your upgrade. :)

    Good luck.

  • Satellite P870 - problems with WiFi after Win 8.1 upgrade

    Wireless Internet is hopeless.
    Maybe that 3 to 10 pages will load correctly or not at all, for most not at all.
    Other wireless devices in the House are fine, as is the use of the Ethernet.

    Checked the drivers through the Device Manager, says that they are up to date.
    However using the toshiba service station he lists 12 updates including one for the driver Realtek wireless.

    The date of release permanently after the last version installed.
    Try to update by the service center to complete and then comes up with an error message, something like the process is completed by the user.

    Of course I never finished anything.
    Any ideas/thoughts? Just uninstall 8.1?
    Although I'd rather not.

  • Satellite L855-124 cannot change the brightness of the display after Win 8 upgraded

    Hi all

    I have a problem with my laptop Toshiba Satellite L855 - 124 PSKACE.
    After the upgrade to Windows 8, I can't change the backlight brightness of the screen of the laptop.

    There seems to be an error in the graphics driver.
    When I install the AMD graphics driver of Windows 7 in compatibility, it works again, but bugs on other areas.

    Anyone have any ideas?
    Even after you use the upgrade wizard provided by Toshiba, it does nothing.
    Also the drivers for my laptop are not updated. From 2012.

    I called tech support, they told me that a pilot team is going to be fixing the issue.
    That was 2 months ago.

    Is there anyone from Toshiba which can help me with this please?

    Thank you.

  • Satellite L40 - CD/DVD drive does not end to close after burning

    My TOSHIBA SATELLITE L40 works correctly under VISTA HOME PREMIUM. This is the first time that I realize that the CD/DVD driver is unable to complete a session of engraving using NERO8, NERO9, ASHAMPO TSHIBA DISC CREATOR or in Windows mode. The burn starts fine from 0% to 100% where it remains for a long time. Where can be the problem come from? Is the driver broken only for burning?

    It correctly reads all CDs and DVDs once loaded.

    Hello

    I think that this problem can be caused by using fully compatible diskettes
    I had many problems with different CD or DVD from different manufacturers.
    I tested several brands and finally I had a good experience with TDK discs Verbatim R my disk manages this disc better than others

    Perhaps, you should also test different drives from different manufacturers.
