Can I update or change my PM735 Satellite Pro M30:Centrino video card / 1.7? Thanks /.

The laptop with the desktop, you can compare t. It s a different technology.

    Hello!

    I have Toshiba Satellite A300d-156. An ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 video card is dead.

    Is it compatible with my laptop? Help, please!

    Sorry, but man I must say: forget it.
    You can't go to the graphics chip. It will not work and the BIOS would not accept.

    In your case, you will need to replace the motherboard. :(, cela peut être une affaire très coûteuse...) You know

  • Can I change the video card in the Portege M700?

    I recently received a Portege M700 as a gift and I didn't really like the Intel supplied with the laptop video card. If I want to change the video card to a more adapted to more modern games. Something like an nVidia or ATi video card. I don't think it's possible, but if this is the case, could someone answer?

    Thanks in advance.

    > On the other hand, it is possible to change the whole motherboard, and if it is possible, it would cost a lot?
    The replacement of the motherboard is possible, but it can be replaced with the same card published by Toshiba for this series of laptop.
    In addition, the replacement of the motherboard is a costly business because the mobo is one of the expensive laptop parts

    THX

    Hello

    Well, in general it s is not possible to replace or update the graphics card.
    But I compared a Satellite Pro M70 unit because this series of laptop was delivered with different hardware configurations and I found that these installed graphics cards:
    Mobile Intel 915GM Express Chipset AlvisoGM 8 MB to 128 MB shared video memory
    ATI MOBILITY RADEON X600SE 128 MB of video memory
    ATI MOBILITY RADEON X 700 256 MB of video memory

    However, in my opinion you can not change the graphics card

  • Satellite Pro M30, it is recommended to install the new nVIDIA display driver?

    I own a laptop Satellite Pro M30, which includes a GeForce FX Go5200 GPU from nVIDIA. On 27 July, nVIDIA has released a new driver and related software (version 61.77), as indicated by nVIDIA, fits all the its GPU.

    I tried to install this new driver on my laptop (after removing the old driver following the instructions by nVIDIA) but it does not install. Does anyone have an idea why?

    Why the new driver is not displayed on the Toshiba support site driver for this laptop?

    Hello

    All drivers are designed and tested to laptops and Tom is right about producer for laptop. This means that you can find the download page for all drivers needed on Toshiba.

    As much I know Toshiba supports the drivers shipped with the device drivers and updates if necessary.

    Hello

    As far as I know the laptop is equipped with an ATA-100 IDE / ATA-6 HARD drive controller.
    In this case, you will need to use the 2.5 IDE HARD drive.

    I know with certainty that this notebook would support 80 GB HDD, but generally a larger HARD drive should also be possible because the controller is able to manage the 48-bit LBA.
    The 48-bit LBA can handle hard drives of more than 120GB.

    In my opinion, you can try a 120 GB and also 160 GB HARD drive should be possible.

  • Satellite P100-400: is it possible to change the graphics card?

    Hello

    I would like to know if it is possible to change the graphics card? It's the nvidia Go 7900 Gs with 512 MB...
    Have the nvidia mxm?
    Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English

    At first, I must say that your English is very good and understandable.
    Back to your question: update graphic card is not possible. The graphics card is part of the motherboard and cannot be exchanged separately.

    Please note that the portable is not so extensible as on desktop computers. The upgrade can be done with RAM or HARD drive very easy, but not with processor or graphics card.

    Hello

    Usually it of not possible to change the GPU on laptop computers.
    The laptop is configured with this graphics card and after replacement, it possible s that the BIOS will not accept this card and laptop does not start.

    But why you want to replace it?

    It seems that there s a new notebook with HD-DVD player and a great graphics card.
    The replacement does not really increase the graphics performance!
    You know, replacement is very risky, and if you open the notebook, you will lose the warranty!
    It is not worth!

  • Used the update and now the video card is not recognized

    I updated updater manual update and have not updated anything since early December, 01/30/10 I installed the 5 important updates that were listed, I don't remember who they were, after installing the computer needed to restart and after the recovery, the video card is no longer recognized.  I get the BIOS beep code for no video card or bad video memory.  I know that this seems to be a hardware problem, but this computer worked fine until these updates. Now that the video card is not recognized, I can't even get into the BIOS, and still less actually starting windows. Any help/ideas what caused this and how can I fix this are greatly appreciated, thank you very much. Even a list of the latest important updates might be useful, I can't seem to find a list of anywhere.
     
    System-Vista Home Premium 64-bit
    Palit-card nVidia GeForce 9600 GT graphics card

    Oh and I took out that graphic card and put in a different one, nVidia PNY GeForce 7900 GS and always get the same error code. I also disconnected and removed the battery from the motherboard to reset the BIOS, still the same problem.

    Hi JohnyDick,

    This problem seems to be due to the updates of Windows, although it could be a coincidence.
    I first you recommend to remove the nVIDIA graphic card and connect the monitor to the onboard graphics card, then try to start the computer.
     
    If the problem persists then I recommend you to contact the computer manufacturer for assistance.

    I hope this helps.

  • Impossible to change the video card Intel for radeon

    Model: vpcsc1afm

    I just upgraded to windows 8 and when I go to change my video card 3000 from low power to high power AMD radeon 6470 card Intel video.  I wonder if the problem is that there is not any software for the power switch that changes computer from endurance to speed. Help, please!

    I already tried this twice by making sure that the power switch has been changed for housing suitable for each drivers before installation.  The driver is also enabled in Device Manager.  I had this same problem when I tried on the bata, but I managed to solve the problem by installing the drivers.  When in the bata, it was easy to tell that the pilots were the problem because the power to speed up the computer has crashed and after reinstalling the drivers it worked fine.  Here, when applying power to the speed, nothing happens.
