Update graphics ATI catalyst on Satellite Pro A300

Is it possible to update the graphics card ATI Catalyst or the drivers for my graphics card? Today, I got a notice that something is wrong with MMLoadDrv.exe (sorry I don't remember exactly what he said) and that the update will solve the problem. I followed the link sugested and tried to download the update, but I couldn't install it. The following message appears:

"AMD Catalyst Mobility cannot be downloaded because of incompatible hardware/software on your computer.
The version of your graphics card is not supported.
Contact the manufacturer of your laptop for an update of the graphics driver. »

I went to the page dowload drivers Toshiba and searched for a new driver, but the "youngest" driver I found is from 2008.

Any advice on how to update the graphics driver will be much appreciated.

> So I went to dowload drivers Toshiba page and looked for a new driver, but the "youngest" driver I found is from 2008.
And how young is your laptop?
What model of laptop do you really?

    I ask then is there latest drivers for Windows XP

    Hello

    I think you have already answered that question yourself...

    As you wrote that you can get all the drivers on the Toshiba site and if it isn t a newer driver available you can nothing more I think. Satellite A300 isn t a laptop of game performance so I think that the display drivers are not so important.

    The only way to obtain a more recent version, it's looking on external Web sites. Maybe you can get the desktop pilot working had some changes I put t know but really attention! Other drivers don't have protection against overheating and you could destroy the graphics chip. Be very careful of what you do.

    Alternatively, you can search on the Toshiba site for other models of laptops with ATI card too. Maybe, you can get a newer version

  • Satellite Pro A300 PSAGDA-02000R CPU and graphics chipset mismatch

    can someone help me with the specifications of this laptop.

    When I look at the official brochure of toshiba for this product, he mentions that the Chipset of the CPU

    "Mobile Intel 965 PM Express Chipset.

    but the second video card says

    "Intel Graphics Media Accelerator GM45.

    Which is true, because what I read on the site of intel GMA X 3100 is used on the mobile 965 PM Express Chipset.

    Any help will be much appreciated.

    To be honest, this unit is not known to me, but I know that some other Satellite Pro A300 supports other chipsets.
    For example:

    SATELLITE PRO A300 PSAJ1E-005008BT supports the Intel GM965 chipset and graphics chip Intel GM965
    SATELLITE PRO A300 PSAJ5E - 001001GR is supported by the chipset Intel PM965 and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470
    SATELLITE PRO A300-1E7 PSAGDE-003003EN supports the Intel PM45 Express and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 Mobile Chipset
    SATELLITE PRO A300-1HF PSAG1E-00K00SIT supports Intel GM965 and Intel GM965 graphics chip as well.
    SATELLITE PRO A300-21 b PSAGDE-01S007A3 supports the Chipset Mobile Intel GM45 Express and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470.

    As you can see there are many different laptops with hardware components completely different models
    I googled too, and it seems that the PSAGDA Satellite Pro A300-02000R supports the PM of Mobile Intel 965 Express chipset and graphics ATI Mobility Radion, HD 3650 with 512 MB + Intel Graphics Media Accelerator GM45.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A300-1EA - difficulties in upgrading the BIOS

    Hello

    I tried to update BIOS on my new Satellite Pro A300-1EA (PSAG9E-001001EN), requested by Tempro, since version 1.50 to 1.90. The system has completely frozen during the BIOS flash, after waiting for an hour, I decided to turn the power off and pray for the best. Thank God, everything works still, but the BIOS is always v1.50, not been updated. I now read so many posts on the forum about the update of the BIOS of marbled and am now very cautious about subject to any BIOS updates at all.

    My questions are: is there about this particular update and/or with the installation of InsydeFlash problems? The BIOS updates are usually all so difficult that they have better be avoided? What are alternative means for updating BIOS, hopefully less dangerous? Also, could there be potential damage to my laptop that is associated with this is BIOS flash a miscarriage I should know about?

    Thank you very much indeed!

    Monsteress

    You can feel happy, my friend! :)
    I m surprised that your ROM module is damaged or something. In most cases, this occurs if the computer hangs during the update.

    Let me give you some advice. You should only update the BIOS if it of needed or if you have questions-problems with the laptop. You can ignore the messages of TEMPRO if your system is working properly. For example I have never updated the BIOS if my phone goes perfect never touch a running system ;)

    If not, follow the advice posted by Akuma before update you the BIOS to close all running programs, disable the AntiVirus and firewall and connect the AC adapter.
    On my Satellite U400, I've updated the BIOS without problems.

  • Satellite Pro A300 - 1 5: control buttons don't work & question ATI Catalyst

    My keys (5 buttons) are useless!
    I can't put on mute stop, or change lanes.

    I don't know what to do! I installed the drivers from the toshiba Web site but I can't use the buttons.

    Another problem is with my video card.
    I can't turn on my controller of catalyst. My driver is ok but the catalyst is damaged!

    And another to my video card my laptop doesen't recognize my screen!
    It displays "Multiple monitors", I don't know if you know what I mean...

    Pls... suggestions... :(

    Hello

    There are several questions and perhaps the best solution for you is to install the new OS by using recovery image. I know, it's more radical but the simplest method. After 30 minutes, you must again factory settings and everything will work correctly.
    I'm sure that everything worked fine at first.

    If you want to fix this only solution is to reinstall the value-added driver package and display, and hope that this will help.

  • Satellite Pro A300 - touchpad failed after BIOS update

    After that good BIOS update 2.00 to 2.10 / suggest by ALERT TEMPRO - http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/bios-20091125132031.zip/ the touchpad of my Satellite Pro A300 - GR 1 stopped working.
    He appears under the name hidden in Device Manager. The State of the device - "this device is not present, is not working properly or is not all its drivers installed." (Code 24) "reinstall the driver has no effect of course. I can also access the BIOS utility when you start pressing F2.
    Running Vista Business 32-bit Edition.
    Ideas to solve the problem will be highly appreciated!

    Hello

    Normally, it should be possible access the BIOS, if you press F2, once you have turned on the laptop. Please check again and load the default settings there.
    And you cannot access the BIOS if you shut down the computer.

    You can use an external mouse on the laptop? Please check this too.

    I've also updated the BIOS on my Satellite A300 but I n t have a problem with the touchpad after the update.

  • Satellite Pro A300-1DZ cannot find HDD after BIOS update

    Hello world

    I recently bought a Satellite Pro A300-1DZ flea market.
    Put a new copy of Windows xp family.
    I then install all the drivers necessary own site of Toshiba and the end of it, I thought that it is perhaps a good idea to update the bios?

    OH DEAR what a big mistake.

    Now the netbook won't start windows.
    So I thought it's ok, I'll just start from the begginning and reinstall windows again, but he tells me that it cannot find a hard drive on my netbook?

    aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm going crazy,
    Could someone tell me please how to fix this? Thanks x

    Hello

    I think the value of the option SATA AHCI and hence Windows XP mode cannot find the HARD drive.
    It's because of the SATA controller.
    You can set the SATA AHCI compatible mode mode mode and this will allow you to install Win XP on the laptop without the use of SATA drivers.

    So, you have two options if you want to install Win XP:

    -> AHCI mode, but you must include the SATA drivers
    Compatible mode-> Win XP installation possible without SATA drivers

  • Satellite Pro A300-15 t does not restart on the current after BIOS update

    Hello

    There is something wrong with my Satellite Pro A300-15 t. I made an update of the BIOS of toshiba recently with the latest Web site and it installed successfully. But after the installation, I noticed that my laptop does not restart when it is connected to the power adapter. It restarts and works perfectly when its power on the battery.

    After restart or start-up the laptop (on battery), it will be well when the adapter is connected.

    But, when I reboot when the adapter is connected, after his stop, just power light turns on for a second or two and gets off automatically. And not even the laptop starts manually by pressing the power button (LCD is turned off when the power light comes on for 2 seconds) when the adapter remains connected.

    So what I do is to pull the plug on the adapter, then start the computer manually by pressing the power button and reconnect the plug of the adapter to the laptop starts. It works well this way. Rest everything works perfectly.

    And this problem started after the update of the BIOS. Now, I don't know how to remedy the situation I don't know if there was a bug in the last update of the bios.

  • Satellite Pro A300 - blue snow on screen

    After about 20 months trouble free operation, my Satellite Pro A300 has developed an intermittent failure annoyingly screen appears where a scattering of blue pixels, most noticeably on a white background. Generally any form of action (including a proverbial "click") clears the screen until the next time it happens.

    Any idea what's going on? Any help appreciated.

    > Generally any form of action (including a proverbial "click") clears the screen until the next time it happens.
    Means that they are not dead pixels or something like that in this case, it could be a graphics related issue.
    Have you tested this external monitor? Pixels appear on the second screen?
    If so, then this might be a GPU question

    But you can also check if an update of the driver can be useful of course the old driver must be uninstalled and then the new driver update must be installed.

    However, it smells like a hardware problem, so I'm not sure if a driver update that would improve

  • Satellite Pro A300 crashes with white screen

    I have a Satellite Pro A300, AMD processor, Vista, ATI graphics card.

    The system worked fine for a year, but there are a few months, he started crashing, the screen went white, not blue, whatever it be running, like music, stopped. This can occur after several hours or minutes, or even if he is re-start. All my software is up-to-date, Microsoft and Toshiba. I rebuilt my system from scratch and the symptoms came back.

    At first I thought that this could be a heat problem, but I followed this but I don't think that's it. It crashed seconds after leaving standby mode when it has not had a chance to warm up.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Simon

    Hey Buddy,

    Theoretically, it might be an overheating problem so the screen became due white built in overheating protection...

    You should try to clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This could blow the dust of fans cooling and, therefore, it of not necessary to disassemble the laptop.
