Satellite S70-B-117 - M265X AMD cannot run games

Hello

on my new s70-b-117, I can't start my steam games.
I downloaded HL2 and Portal 2, Lost Coast, but when my switch able graphic option is enabled performace max (the m265x should go) I can only see the title with options screen but I can't click anything! and the screen seems to freeze.

With the help of my internal HD 4600 (settings on the 'max battery') these games work.

My drivers are up to date.

I'll test other games when they are downloaded.

Is there a solution? (I bought this laptop for games)

Thanks for this short feedback

  • Satellite L650-16w - cannot run game using the old GPU driver

    first of all I had to say that my English is not very good, so if there is a German support it would be easier for me to write with German support.

    2 weeks ago, I bought a new toshiba Satellite L650-16w.
    After installing my favorite game, I'm trying to start this game, but I can't because of this error message: "3DGM gm_OpenGLError, param err error:"not enough memory"", last error win32 #8 "»

    After that, I tried the latest driver and installed the driver version 8.723.2 on the home page of toshiba, the amd driver does not work, but the error is still there.
    I tried many things but I wasn't able to run this game on my computer.
    I'm sure it's a problem with the driver because when I uninstalled the drivers launched the game! (there was only the installed windows vga drivers).
    Unfortunately, I had a low fps rate of relay with windows drivers, so I was unable to play this game without the pilots.

    I hope someone can help me to launch this game and there is no solution to run this game on my pc.

    My oem is windows 7 64 bit, and Yes this game still works on win 7 64 bit because I got to play this game on an another win 7 64 bit system.

    Hello

    Usually, you should always use Toshiba driver because drivers are supported for GPU overheating protection.
    If you want to use other drivers, then you can do this at your own risk.

    I googled a bit and found two pages that provide updated ATI drivers the:
    www.OmegaDrivers.net/
    www.laptopvideo2go.com/

    Perhaps one of the pilots of the mentioned pages would you play this game for sure.

  • Satellite S70-B-118 - graphic shifts everything in game

    Hello world

    I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite S70-B-118 and have some problems with my graphics.

    I have 2 cards in it, one for the power saving mode and the other for games (amd radeon r9 m265x).

    Portable zhe should actually automatically use amd when im playing games, but I feel that this does not work because I can't yet play fifa 15 without offset...

    Battle field 4 runs on graphics card down with about 40 fps only... is the amd radeon r9 really bad m265x or dynamic graphics work correctly?

    I am extremely frustrated because I really waited more than a laptop that costs about 1000...

    best regards and thanks for the help :)

    The laptop supports two graphic cards.
    Part internal GPU processor Intel and AMD Radeon R9 M265X is a unit of external graphics card

    To switch to the external GPU, right click on the desktop
    In Catalyst Control Center Power, click on select Maximum Performance when it is plugged

    Then in global settings of Switchable Graphics also choose maximize Performance

    Then click on the switchable graphics Application settings
    Now, you would be able to add an app (game) that could use this graphics card settings
    Simply tap the exe of the game and add to the list of applications.
    After that, you will see the exe file in the list. Click the graphics settings and set it to high performance.

  • Cannot run game Bioshock on Satellite X 200 because of the graphics driver

    I just bought a 200 X and I can't update / install the drivers for the graphics card on the toshiba site! While installing it gives a message saying that a BONE bundles is installed.
    The computer is just out of the box and the only game I have installed is bioshock (which does not run in DX10 mode!

    any ideas?

    Hello

    JEPP, I have an idea. Check out these sites:

    http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
    http://www.OmegaDrivers.NET/

    and download the latest drivers for your machine from there. These drivers are native ATI/NVIDIA drivers, but the *.inf files have been modified to operate on mobile systems. Just give them a try and you will be able to play your games.

    PS: I really like bioshock and I understand you absolutely :)

  • Cannot run games in DirectX10, no idea why

    From: Akira

     
    Hello, I am writing here because I can't get directx 10 to run on any games I play. For example, Team Fortress 2. The possibility to change the version to use DirectX is grayed out, and it is on x 9 directly on the hardware and software.

    My specs:

    I am running Windows Vista family premium (32 bit) and dxdiag confirms that DirectX 10 is installed. I have an Intel Core 2 6600 and 4 GB of ram.  The video card, I am running is the MIS Geforce 8800 GTS, updated to the latest drivers (drivers released May 13, 2008). I have two monitors, the main running at a resolution of 1680 x 1050, and my secondary running at a resolution of 1280 x 1024.

    When I put a few game options to run at x 10 direct, they will fail to load at all. With more games directx 10 on the way, I wish that this issue be fixed as soon as possible = (.) Thanks in advance to anyone who can help and make suggestions!

    From: Andy [YaYa]

    Team Fortress 2 only supports DirectX 9 .0c, just because you have DirectX 10, does not mean that the game takes place in DirectX 10.

    3 things you need for DirectX 10 games.

    1. a DirectX 10 compatible video card (nVidia series 8 x 00 or ATi HD)

    2. Windows Vista

    3. a game that uses DirectX 10.

    A few examples I can think off the top of my head...

    BioShock (with patch)

    Crysis

    Assassin Creed

    Company of Heroes (with patch)

    Lord of the Rings Online

    Lost Planet

    Hellgate: London

    Gears of War

    FSX: Acceleration (with patch)

    FarCry 2

    World in Conflict

    Guild Wars 2

    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_games_with_DirectX_10_support

    Note that I have not mentioned all the Steam games in the list. :)

    There is a command line you can add TF2 to change your level of DirectX, but your only options are "-dxlevel 90 ' for 9.0 c, or '-dxlevel 81 '' for 8.1, but you usually use only the line if you have problems.»

    I don't know what the games fail to load for you, but I suggest you check with the manufacturer of game updates, run DXWEBSETUP. EXE to make sure that you have the latest DirectX files installed (you can get in)

    ( http://www.microsoft.com/Directx). Answer here with the error messages and the game you receive.

  • cannot run games... sdl_mixer.dll error message

    I've downloaded on my computer games but they will not open and I get a message sdl_mixer.dll.

    How can I fix this?

    Thank you!

    You can try to reinstall the games you get error sdl_mixer.dll since the program is expected to replace the file.
    If this does not help, check if you have the file on your computer.
    If you can find the file, you can try to re - register the .dll file.
    Click Start, click Run, type the following command:
    Regsvr32 sdl_mixer.dll

    Then try again see if you can open the game.

    Then, run the sfc/scannow to see if she will not replace missing or corrupt file sdl_mixer.dll copy. If this file was provided by Microsoft, the SFC scan should replace the file.

    Log in as administrator account. Click Start, run, type SFC/scannow.

  • Re: Satellite S70 - B - bad ATI graphics card

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite S70 - B with an AMD Radeon R9 M265X.
    I installed all the updates but it's now called "AMD Radeon HD 8800 M Series", it is exactly this problem:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB4903N60000R01.htm

    But the solution is to update the divers, that's already what I did... so what can I do?
    I tried to uninstall, reboot, reinstall the different versions and so on... I'm totally lost now :'(

    And now I do not see the option appears when you left-click on the desktop to access the interface of catalyst or select the graphics card to use according to the programme (to use the radeon in the game and not the intel HD).

    An idea to make everything back to normal?

    I m not very well if the solution might be the same, because your laptop is different.
    It s S70 - B Satellite

    By the way: what Satellite S70-B-xxx you exactly and what version of driver AMD have you installed.

    The Toshiba UE driver page provides different versions of the AMD drivers!

    However, I recommend you to repeat the solution posted in Toshiba document.
    First uninstall the driver from Device Manager graphics card.
    Download the latest version (according to the system of windows), and then install again.

    Here is the list of the available GPU drivers:

  • Cannot run the screen saver because it requires a newer video card or one that is compataible with Direct3D.

    Hello

    I recently rebooted my computer; (Packard Bell) and now cannot run games or screen savers because it does not start. I think my problem has something to do with a Direct3D card? When I run screensavers, I get this message:
    Cannot run the screen saver because it requires a newer video card or one that is compataible with Direct3D.
    I have the impression that sound when I run the 3D games, such as minecraft or GMOD.
    I run on Windows Vista Edition Home Premium and does not do anything but re - install my computer because it wouldn't start.
    It is not as if the graphics card is not there, so I'm really confused!
    Please help me, like playing games is my favorite thing. ;)

    I also ran minecraft to double check and I got this error code:

  • Satellite L500 - cannot run the DVD-ROM games

    I am currently having problems with my Toshiba Satellite L500 series. The problem is, I can run purchased audio CD, as well as DVDs of the films, but I can't run games DVDrom. Music CD will automatically start Media Player very well, as well as films in their corresponding players... Games (like Dragon Age Origins and Left 4 Dead) DVD - ROM cannot read, or be recognized. When I go to "Computer" and try to access the game, it says "no available disk. Please insert disc into drive D: ". So from what I understand, the CD/DVD-rom may not be completely broken if he reads all types, except for games to DVDrom.

    Can someone help me with this please! It is quite frustrating because my computer is just now to a year! I wouldn't think that all computer companies sell computers that fall apart after a year... I was hoping that it was different with Toshiba.

    Once more, the CD/DVD-ROM can read CD and DVD of the film, but NOT the games to DVDrom. Help, please! Thanks in advance!

    Hi adecker,.

    Maybe it s caused due the upper and lower filters in the registry. You should try to remove as you can read in this article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

    Because ati - driver must be changed to support, protection against overheating.

  • Satellite S70 - B - graphic driver blocks using photoshop

    Hello

    I bought my toshiba satellite s70 - b less than a month ago, but it's happened a few times, while using photoshop graphic processor, stops working and one of the people pop up at the bottom of the screen of messages indicates that the graphics processor has been reactiveted.

    Whenever this happens, I lose all my files on photoshop and it's really annoying.

    I tried to update the drivers of two graphics processors, but nothing has changed.
    I have an AMD R9 m265x graphic processor and Intel (r) graphics radeon hd 4600.

    How can I solve the problem?

    I think to give back the laptop.

    The question is:
    What graphics card driver crashes when you use Photoshop?

    As you said: the laptop was equipped with a graphics card AMD/ATI external and other Intel HD GPU internal done part of the CPU.
    Since the application Photoshop needs a lot of graphics performance (photo editor), I recommend you check out the graphical configuration. Photoshop must use the ATI GPU instead of Intel.

    How to do this?
    This can be changed in the settings of ATI catalyst. This YouTube clip could be interesting... It shows you how to switch to the ATI GPU and get better performance.

  • Noisy fan on Satellite S70-B-10Z

    Hello

    I have a problem with my satellite S70-B-10Z.
    The laptop is not so cool in recent months as it used to be. In fact is getting really hot on the right side of the keyboard. There is also a noise coming from the fan. I checked the tha fan speed and when I have the only window Chrome (or any other window browser) active he actually reached 82% of the speed of the fan and remains constant. I've updated everything (bios, graphics card intel, amd, graphics etc.) and managed to reduce the heat a little and now the fan speed has reached 82% sometimes, but not continuously. However, this continues to happen very often.

    Is this normal? Is there a problem with the fan?

    I should mention that I sent to the support toshiba here in Greece and they told me that they cleaned but the problem still after that.

    I had the same problem. I opened the back and I replaced my fan. I also noticed that she had a lot of dust in the fan.
