Upgrade GPU on Satellite P200-13N

Hello everyone

I just got a caled "new" machine Toshiba Satellite P200 13-N with the following specifications:

Windows Vista Edition home premium
2 GB Ram 667 MHZ
Processor Intel core 2 duo 1.73 ghz
NVIDIA Geforce 7600 go with 578 MB of ram

Now I just read the info that he comes out of the new nvidia Geforce 8700 GT graphics card. Can I put my card graphic to the GPU or not because it's a PciE card

Thanks for any advice :)

No, certainly not possible. The graphics chip is more often soldered to the motherboard and it of not possible to delete or replace it!
Especially the whole motherboard must be replaced!

You should know that the CPU or GPU upgrades or replacements are virtually impossible on laptops!
Therefore, I use my desktop PC for games because it is very easy to upgrade the hardware. And I only use my laptop for my work!

  • HARD drive and memory upgrade on the Satellite P200 - 17 c

    Hello

    I own Satellite P200 17 c. My current memory is DDR2 PC2-5300 2 GB. I would like to upgrade to DDR2 PC2 - 6400 4 GB of ram. I can do and it's going to be some speed improvements, if I update to PC2-6400 PC2-5300 instead?

    I have 2 hard drives on my P200 17 c. 2 x 100 GB. I want to upgrade one of these two HD ranging from 100 GB to 320 GB 5400 RPM. can I do this? and it'll be a difference if I update with HD who has 7200 RPM?

    Thank you

    First of all: your machine is able to handle a maximum capacity of 4 GB RAM, but please be aware that you won´t be able to use all of the 4 GB due to some limitations of the chipset that are explained in the following article: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB82022E0000R01.htm

    Regarding the speed of module: chipset specifications are defined for PC5300, so it will not improve your speed when you install faster modules.

    If you want to upgrade your hard drive then do as you like, because it shouldn´t be any restrictions, you can install a drive with 7200 RPM with a slower.

    The only difference will be that the faster drive faster. The performance of the entire system would increase only when you´re install your operating system on the disk more fast (which is the recommendation of my side :))

  • Cannot find the display driver just after the replacement of the GPU on Satellite P200

    I got my laptop yesterday to SAV, because my graphics card has been damaged.

    Now I can start Notepad, but in the hardware Manager is only an entry for the VGA, the new map, which should be in the notebook, the Manager cannot be found.

    I tried to find it with the plug-and-play, but with no result.
    The system is only VGA... After that I tried with a catalytic ATI 8.9 driver. But after installing it do not work too (I restarted the NB)

    May I use the wrong driver from ATI, but I can't find an entry for Mobility Radeon HD 2600.
    Only Radeon 2600 Hd. I'm not sure; This driver also works for mobility?

    Can you give me a link to the correct driver?

    Hello

    First of all, it would be interesting to know what series of laptop you have.
    Then you are sure that another graphics chip has been used?
    Are you sure that it is a Mobility Radeon 2600 HD graphics card?

    If you are not 100% sure I would recommend contact the technician who changed the GPU and seek clarification; What GPU chip has been used and where to find the driver.

    I'd appreciate some feedback from you!

    The GPU is mostly welded and mounted on the motherboard and it of impossible to remove it!

    If I install 1 X 2 GB and 1 X 1 GB (orig) of Ram the computer does not start.
    It seems that the laptop is limmited to 2 GB.
    I verify that this is the last BIOS update v1.7

    Is there a way work about to run with 4 GB of RAM

  • Satellite P200-1I4 - CPU upgrade because of virtualization

    Hello!
    I have Satellite P200-1I4 and I need Intel CPU virtualization technology, but T2370 does not support. Is it possible to change as T7300 CPU or other with virtualization?

    I know, Toshiba does not support upgrades and so forth... I read the FAQ on the change of CPU, but I need options for my laptop!

    Thank you!
    JA? NIS

    Hello

    The first point is that CPU upgrade is always risky, because I think that no one can say if the new processor will be supported the mainbaord, BIOS and chipset.
    The hardware installed on your laptop works with preinstalled CPU but not with the other s CPU.

    The next point is not all laptops have virtualization and the BIOS must also support this. So I guess that your BIOS doesn't have such an option and that means that you cannot use virtualization even if you have a processor that supports this.

    Hi all

    I'm looking for some RAM for a Satellite P200, although I can't find it on any list of compatibility.

    I'm hoping to get two 2 GB of RAM DDR2 880.
    Can you help me please.

    The RAM will be downrated to a slower speed in the Toshiba or the 880 works perfectly?

    Thanks for your time.

    Hello

    > RAM will be downrated to a slower speed in the Toshiba or the 880 works perfectly

    Sorry, but I don t know what you mean by 880. Do you mean the module 880 Mhz DDR2?

    There are different models of Satellite P200, but generally you can use DDR2 667 MHz (PC2-5300) 200 - PIN SODIMM barrettes

    Compatible module runs at 667 Mhz.

  • Satellite P200-13Z - upgrade the hard drive - can I use SATA II hard drives?

    I have a Satellite P200-13Z with simple standard Fujitsu 120 GB SATA hard drive. I want to change this to a RPM SATA II 250 GB Western Digital 7200 RPM drive. This interface SATA laptop does support SATA II? Thank you very much!

    Not your portable computer does not support SATA II.

    However, you can buy the SATA II hard drive and put it in your laptop. Only way to get it going is to restrict the new speed of SATA HDD, I accelerate. To do this is to introduce a jumper on the drive to restrict it to SATA I speeds up. Once it's done put in your laptop and viola, it works.

    Good luck, but I would like to get a toshiba technician to install it if its under warranty. It's for your own good, so you don't turn your laptop into a boat anchor.

  • After upgrading to Windows XP no sound on Satellite P200 - 1 K 5

    * I have a few problems with the audio driver for TOSHIBA Satellite P200 - 1 K 5 with WinXP SPII downgrade.*

    Sound: Realtek High Definition Audio Driver
    System: Microsoft UAA for High Definition Audio Bus driver

    _OS: _
    SATA driver only added the Windows XP SP II installation CD
    All the other drivers where installed manually

    _Problem: _
    All drivers where installed successfully.
    After installing the driver audio without having to restart the audio peripheral system works well.
    But after rebooting the system, the system can't find any audio device. (all the drivers I installed in the hardware Manager and are indicated without problem)
    After reinstalling the audio driver without having to restart the system, the sound seems to work.
    But after rebooting the system, the system can't find any audio device.

    So I've looked for alternatives and found the Microsoft Patches (KB888111 and KB835221) I installed it already.
    All the drivers where placed in the order

    But the problem is the same as the audio device does not work.

    This isn't really a fix to programming a script for automatic reinstall the audio driver after loggon user on windows.

    Does anyone has an idea to solve the problem?
    Help, please...

    Hello

    This means that the sound does not work at all or what? I found an interesting article on the sound without work but after the standby/hibernation mode. Check this http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB7601WX0004R01.htm document

    Install this Microsoft fix, maybe it will help you. Please post the results.

  • Satellite P200-13F slow with Vista installed

    Wow, after 2 weeks of waiting we had the newest Satellite P200-13F... fantastic... Well, is more then a couple of months... then the problems started to irritate. At the same time, we moved to another country... great, but the laptop is still away from work properly...

    In the computer store they told me laughingly that memory of 1 MB is really stupid. Everyone knows that Vista works well on 1 MB.

    So pass it... Yes, of course, to the place where? hahaha, only 1 MB more... a joke... But, we must try something... I m still crying... it doesn t do anything better then before...
    Today, Toshiba cares not less. I mean, they got the money and we have a laptop... or something that should work as it...
    Any laptop with Vista a minimum 2 MB and an upgrade to 4 MB...

    Logic that so many people complain about Vista. It will not work with 1 or 2 MB...

    No, you paid for something, which is stupid. We have to pay again to let XP is installed. Is option... fantastic, thank you very much, Mr toshiba...

    Is knowing how far I came up with this thing... This Toshiba... is there someone who knows how to fix this laptop, let me know...
    Our satellite is the laptop slower I have ever seen...

    Hello

    I have a Satellite P200 and it s great running; with Vista and Windows XP.

    First you misunderstood something; the laptop can be upgraded to 2 GB upwards and not to 2 MB ;) there is a big difference.

    Secondly the Vista works well also with 2 GB of RAM.

    I think you don t know much about computers because performance notebook doesn't depend only on the value of the RAM, but more CPU, GPU and Chipset installed!

    I think that your suggestion on nits P200 means that Notepad starts slowly, etc.
    In my opinion that you n t know that laptop computers are preinstalled with different applications that are run in the context of the OS and need material resources.

    These background processes are created by the software that controls the functions of the laptop as FN key, command buttons, touchpad, Toshiba Flashcards, internal camera, etc... etc.

    Also, the pre-installed Norton Antivirus can slow performance.
    I used the Symantec Norton Antivirus too and was not satisfied with the performance and so I deleted and replaced by the free tool called Antivir.
    My laptop is now faster and better managed, and better, I also used CCleaner to clean the operating system and the registry and removed unnecessary programs that slow down performance.

    Then maybe you should do that too and you will see that your P200 is a lot faster than you think!

  • Update graphics card on Satellite P200

    I recently bought a Satellite P200-13Z and am curious to know if there is any anvliable update for the integrated graphics card that would break not guaranteed.

    Does anyone know of a product that I could buy?

    Hello

    Please don t waste a time to search for any portable computers internal graphics card.
    You cannot upgrade the graphics card on the laptop.

    The GPU is soldered on the map and you will not be able to replace it!

    Technology of laptops is just different as a desktop PC and hardware upgrades are almost impossible.
    You can upgrade a device like RAM or HARD disk but not a GPU (graphic processor, card)

    PS: of course, you will lose warranty if going to disassemble the laptop
