Updated graphics for a Satellite A100-163

Hello
I was wondering if it is possible to improve the graphics in the Toshibe Satellite A100-163. In the specifications of this Web site, it says it is connected by the new card PCI Express x 16 bus, this means that it is infact a graphics card in my laptop at a later date, I would be able to upgrade?
Thank you for your help,
M_Taylor40

Well, the unit was delivered with an ATI MOBILITY RADEON X 1400 128 MB.
But generally, it is not possible to update the graphics card on the laptop.
The graphics on laptops are all just different such as a card in the desktop PC.

  • Update graphics on the Satellite A100-215

    Hello!
    I would like to know if there is possible to update my graphics card to some one like a GeForce 8600GT or a Mr. Radeon HD2600, something like that, with the DirectX10.

    Thanks for any help.

    Hi friend

    Unfortunately there is no chance to update the graphic card of your machine, because the unit graph (or comparable) is welded ("wired") on the motherboard.
    This whole system was aligned with this chip, and there is no way to Exchange or upgrade your graphics subsystem.
    If you want better graphics and a more powerful graphics chipset, then you will need to purchase another computer with a better graphics card.

    That's all. Sorry dude.

  • The screen on the Satellite A100-163 changed 180 degrees.

    The screen on my Satellite A100 - 163 has flipped 180 degrees. The cat sat on the keyboard, so I guess that a combination of keys it will sort! I tried ctrl-stift-r as suggested in a previous message, but nothing helped.

    Any suggestions?

    Hi Stephanie

    Please check the settings of graphics card. I put t know what graphics card your device but I noticed that the units with Intel graphics card have this office turn option and you can change it manually in the properties.

  • Satellite A100-163 low wireless signal

    I just bought a Satellite A100-163, and while wireless, it works to the full 54 members of Parliament he said that the signal is very weak. My old 2430 402, who is sitting beside her said the signal is very strong and I have recently set up a satellite Pro A100 Botc on the same desktop and who received a signal strong. The router, a Voyager 2100 is only 5 feet away. Any thoughts anyone

    Hello

    The WLan signal depends on many factors. But maybe we can solve your problem with changing some settings in the WLan card properties.
    Go to Device Manager and enter the properties of card Wlan (right click)
    You will find a power management tab. The power save option should be disabled.

    In addition, you can check another option in the properties. I think it should also be something such as a scope of the WiFi signal. Sorry, I can t remember the full name.

    However check it out.

  • Cannot install latest ATI mobility Radeon x 1600 display driver for my Satellite A100

    Hello

    My Satellite A100-704 PSAA9E is equipped with the ATI Mobility Radeon X 1600 graphics display card, that ATI provides a new driver, named Catalyst 8.3. My problem is that when I run the verification software, I get a message telling me that this driver is not suitable to be installed on my system.

    Is any information available on this subject? I always install the new Catalyst driver or it's better if I do not have? Oh, the current driver, I have running on my laptop is the one downloaded from the Toshiba site, 8.292 I believe.

    Any information is appreciated. Thank you very much.

    It is well known that laptop to the manufacturer is responsible for the support of driver on laptop computers. You're not the first person is facing this problem. To be honest, it is not the problem. The fact is that the laptop manufacturers use updated drivers to protect the equipment.

    Because of this I recommend you to use the Toshiba drivers only.

  • Satellite A100-163: audio problem after installing Win XP - SOLUTION

    Hello

    I reinstalled Windows XP on this laptop Toshiba A100-163 and had a little trouble, but the hardest thing was the audio, so I thought I'd post the solution in case anyone else is trying to do!

    The drivers supplied by the Toshiba support site did not work. After a bit of research, it seems that the audio drivers are supposed to be integrated into Windows: "Microsoft UAA Bus Driver for High Definition Audio". But I don't it would work.

    The solution was to install XP Service Pack 3!
    I didn't not use Windows update, but instead downloaded and installed the "Windows XP Service Pack 3 Network Installation Package for IT professionals and developers. Then, after a restart, the Hardware Wizard found is come and properly installed audio drivers.

    Hope this helps someone!

  • Games and graphics on the Satellite A100-197

    I have a portable satellite A100-197 and I have problems to read some games. Most of the games work very well, but I have problems to read games on Steam, as source of counterstrike and half-life 2.

    Before starting the game, I gives me an error message saying Steam does not recognize my graphics card, and when I go in the game there is no display, just a white screen. I am told by the error message I use ' Mobile Intel 945GM express chipset family "." I don't know hardly what to do, if there is something that I can download to fix this or if I have to buy a new graphics card.

    If this is the case, should what card I buy? I said I need a low profile card, is this the case? What is the best to buy a small budget? I know there are a number of issues, but someone could please help me! Thanks ;)

    Hello

    I also play counter strike and my practice of experience games flow needs always the latest graphics driver.
    Especially the laptop manufacturers do not provide the latest versions and to look at other sites for the most recent version.

    According to your message, the phone supports an Intel 945 GM graphics card.
    Visit the Intel website and download the new chipset / graphic driver for this card.

  • Need English version of Vista for my Satellite A100

    I bought my computer laptop Satellite A100-999 of Valencia, Spain. I'm from Romania. The seller told me that Windows Vista also has English as language of work. He was wrong. Only for task is English. I have tried many time to switch to English, but I have not found anything. Then... I wonder if someone can lead me somewhere or give me a patch with the English for Windows Vista Home Premium.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello Nedelcu

    I'm afraid that you have misunderstood something. The seller probably meant that Vista is also available in English, but you can not switch pre-installed version in each language.
    If you want to have vista on English, you must buy Microsoft facilities to original Vista DVD and do a clean install of the OS.

    All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities on the English version, you can find and download from Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.

    Bye and good luck!

  • Satellite A100-163 - Win8 Ati Display Driver need

    Hi all!

    I can't find the display driver for windows 8 (last for Windows 7). I know that this laptop is old, but maybe its possible to get the same old driver supporting Windows 8?

    Windows 8 work perfect on Satellite A100 so much faster than XP. One problem in this driver.
    Maybe someone can make old driver capable of working on Windows 8?

    You are right. Laptop is too old and designed for Windows XP Home edition. Toshiba supports much more recent laptops than A100.

    I think you expect too much of this old piece of hardware. In my opinion, you should get Win7 32 bit working on it.

  • Need to buy a new battery for a satellite A100 - don't know which!

    Hello

    My Satellite A100 laptop battery is dead... He has for the last year showed signs of life slowly reduce.
    But I can't for the life of understand me which battery to buy on the section of devices of websites of Toshiba under Power Options.
    All Advisor, welcome.

    Also my laptop has started to become extraordinarily hot - who would have something to do with the life of the battery is reduced?

    Concerning
    RAM

    You can find the model number of your battery and buy the same model. My Toshiba A100-383 battery has this model number: PA3399U-2BRS, I don't know if yours has this number too.

    The heat is a big problem for Li - ion batteries. In any case, you should check if your laptop temperature is abnormal (maybe a fan does not work or it is dirty) because it can affect other components.

    I recently bought a 1 GB SD card and tried to plug it into my A100-163 built-in 5-in-1 card reader. Nothing appears in my computer. I tried to go to the Device Manager and, under "drives" "Secure Digital Storage Device" with a bit of yellow! Select this option. I tried updating the driver Module SD, but whenever I do that the installer comes up with an error, basically saying he can find SD Secure Module.msi. He tries to find in a dark temp folder that involves me Installer is not extracted properly.

    Can someone help me read my SD card? Help, please!

    UPDATE: on the occasion of the strange, it appears in my computer as "Secure Digital Storage Device. When I double click on it, it says:

    Hello Mike

    One thing confuses me. If the unit has the multi card reader factory settings must be configured correctly. You use your own installation of the OS?

    In any case, try to remove device from digital storage secure from Device Manager, then restart the device.

  • Need two drivers of Windows XP Home for my Satellite A100 (PSAAN)

    Hi guys,.

    I am experiencing a small problem, I recently bought a second hand satellite A100 (laptop and charger only), that came preloaded with Vista home premium. the problem is that I need to run Windows XP on this machine.

    So I did what anyone else would do, I formatted the machine, but not knowing that the disk contained the necessary drivers. So now I have loaded WXP, installed all the drivers in the support section, but now I'm looking for two drivers:

    (1) the "biometric coprocessor" and
    (2) audio driver modem high definition...

    Any idea where I can get these?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    All the XP drivers are published on the page of Toshiba. But the proper installation order is the key!
    Please choose your laptop in the form driver of Toshiba (PSAAN) download and install all the drivers available in the right order.
    The installation instruction was also published on this site! Simply follow these guide lines!
