Satellite Pro M70 - ist is possible to change the craphics controller?

Is it possible to change the graphics controller to my Satellite Pro M70...
If so, where to buy a new one?

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

    Really, I have not much used this drive and never scratched/gradient/local support, only the Supermedium media inserted.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Well, based on your description it sounds like the drive cannot calibrate the lens and, therefore, it of not possible to read or write to these media.
    Usual it of not possible to fix this and the replacement drive is necessary.

    You can also consult the user manual. You will find a list with all supported and compatible media.

  • Satellite Pro M70-132: excellent WiFi connection but the pings are slow

    Hi all...
    My Satellite Pro M70-132 have problems with Wi - Fi connections (WiFi built in)... Generally, when the connection is excellent (indicator of windows), the pings are slow - very long time: 1212ms, 325ms, 645ms, 2112ms, 91ms, s 168ms... etc 'demand time limit has expired' (or sth like this).
    I have updated with the latest version of the Intel WiFi driver - it does not work...
    I installed new system - it does not work...

    Is it possible, that LAN WiFi is dead on my M70-132? How can I check before sending my 'Toshi' to the service?

    (BTW - built-in Bluetooth has been switched off...)

    I was tempted to access with several AP and also ad hoc. Every time, same results... connection strong-great but pings are slow... and often ping timeout...

    The IP address has been set manually and automatically - it does not work... too multidimensional :-(

    It's not metter WEP encryption is enabled, 'on' or 'off' and no authentication method does not change the situation with WLAN...

    Hello

    If the work of WLan connection and you are connected to the router so I guess everything's ok.
    Time to ping depends on not always the strength of the signal.

    If you ping other ip on the net if the time depends on the provider and type of connection.
    But if you ping your WLan router and it s very slow so it s a bit strange.

    If you think there could be something wrong with the Wlan card then you can try asking for help ASP.

  • Satellite Pro M70 - USB port does not recognize the device

    My Satellite Pro M70 has three USB slots, one on the left and two (vertically one above the other) at the back of the laptop.

    The top slot to USB in the back started giving problems. Sometimes, my computer can't see all that I plugged in there. But if I unplug anything - usually the printer or the mouse - the computer will usually see it then.

    What is the problem? Can do nothing about it?

    My operating system is XP. and my laptop is 4.33 year.

    Thank you.

    Hi Mannix,

    Have you already updated the chipset drivers?

  • 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.

    Greeting

    Ribas

    There is an answer simply; No, it of not possible to update the graphics card on this laptop, the chip is fixed on the map and can not be removed on the simply medium.

    You must know that the layout of the laptop motherboard is a bit different and doesn t allow these updates.

  • Satellite Pro M30: Is it possible to restore the disk Win XP at least

    I recorded the M30 Pro of the Satellite with Win XP Professional 5 years on the Toshiba-Europe website.
    Is it possible to restore the disk Win XP at least?

    I'll ask Toshiba for assistance (already done) or there is a way to create the disks on mine?

    I'm sure someone went down this way (ar tried at least).

    PS: it is a time for the upgrade of the HARD drive.

    Thank you all.
    Wall

    Sorry, but I don't really know what you are meaning by the Win XP disk restore.

    The Toshiba laptop was delivered with the Toshiba Recovery CD.
    If you want to restore the OS from Windows XP that is installed on the HARD drive, then use this disk and reinstall the WinXP.
    To start the installation, you must boot from the recovery CD.

    If you want to create a clean image and then install Win XP with a CD of MS Windows, download the Toshiba driver and create the image using the tool like Norton Ghost third 3rd for example.

  • Satellite Pro L40 does not start after changing the BIOS settings

    Changed some settings in the bios last night and now when I boot I get a screen black lights flash and hard drive lights up but nothing on the screen.

    There is no password on the bios... How would a BIOS reset to normal?

    I put a windows disc now, I hear the disc spin but nothing on the screen

    (I think that I have come to the right place on the forum)

    It s a Toshiba Satellite Pro L40 model psl4be.

    Thank you

    > There was no bios password... How would a BIOS reset to normal?

    You can set the default BIOS ONLY inside the BIOS access BIOS by pressing F2 or at the beginning of the initialization of the order

    But I doubt that this problem is related to the BIOS.
    Maybe it s just a simple bad luck that this problem happened exactly after change something in the BIOS.

    Try connecting an external monitor and check if you can see something on the 2nd screen.

  • Satellite Pro A40: Is it possible to format the HARD drive without disk

    I am passing on a Satellite Pro A40 to a brother. It is in very good condition, but has slowed down over the years. I want to get rid of my data (I have on a new machine) and speed up the system by formatting the hard drive.

    The machine didn't come with a disc for Windows XP, or a recovery CD (just a CD "tools and utilities"). I'm sure the drive HARD will be partitioned, and I can format the drive without such a disc.

    If this is true, how should I do?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    I can't believe that you do not have recovery media.
    The laptop must be supplied with recovery CD, Tools & Utilities CD, and WinDVD.

    But back to your question;
    If you insert a new HARD disk, you will need to use the Toshiba Recovery CD or the original CD of Microsoft Windows to install the operating system.
    The new drive is not partitioned HARD and doesn't have any OS pre-installed!

    If you n t have the original CD of Microsoft OS you can contact the service provider allowed in your country and you can order it.

    I hope I could help

    Hello

    You will need a compatible CD/DVD player.
    Not all readers are supported due to different master/slave/c-salt settings.
    ODD, that uses wrong settings will not be recognized by the BIOS.

    You can buy a compatible player to a Toshiba ASP in your country.
    You can also consult your user manual.
    In my manual, I could find some information on the compatible sides

  • Satellite Pro C660 - 21 d - how to change the shared memory graphic value?

    My dxdiag screen says I have almost 1700 MB of video memory, but when I try to use this memory on games these games can use 256 MB...

    I tried to change settings in the BIOS, but it does not have this setting, do not know what else could cause this problem?

    Hello

    This could be confusing, but this isn't a problem.
    Shared memory is controlled by the graphics driver and the driver affects the part of the main memory to the memory of the graphics card ONLY if its required by a running application.

    The Dxdiag shows you how much RAM could be shared and value of memory in the quizzes you shared memory which is used and who is in the game right now.

  • Satellite Pro M70 freezes everytime when the USB port is used

    Satellite Pro M70 (SPM76) crashes every time when the USB port is used.
    The mouse works, but external HD/Extarnal card sound/Memory stick causing the laptop to freeze. All the drivers are installed right, they are the most recent and have no trouble with other users.

    The devices are all compatible. Service pack 2 is installed, and all the hardware drivers on the toshiba have been updated... again, same problem.
    The toshiba is about 2 months old and have had this problem since I got it. First I thought it was the drvers, but I cleared of all (?) other options but the USB ports.

    Hello

    Believe me, that's not easy to say what the problem may be. It is important to see if the problem occurs because of hardware or software may be. I recommend you to backup all your data and reinstall the unit using rescue media. On this way the unit will be factory settings and will be clean preinstalled. Test your USB devices and see what happens.

    Try to use some standard like USB stick or external HARD disk parts, because in this case, you must not install any drivers please. If you use other devices like USB webcam with own software and drivers, it is possible that something goes wrong, but what. On this path, it is not possible to say.
