• Satellite L50-A-19N - need to update driver nVIDIA - some games do not work

  Hello

  I have the problem with drivers nVIDIA for my 740 M,
  The thing is that I can not update drivers because any drivers I have install my core 580 MHz GPU clock drops everything at stake. But when I return to the first drivers that I had on my base GPU clock portable (326.60) is 1058 MHz all-in game.

  The problem is that I can't run some games because I need to update the drivers.
  Just some games do not work on 326.60.

  I tried to contact customer support, but the page is not available. -.-'

  Hello

  First of all, please note that use of the 3rd third-party drivers is at your own risk.

  You must use the drivers supplied by Toshiba driver page because these drivers are changed and designed for mobile use.

  This driver supports the overheating protection, which means that in the cases that the temperature of the GPU would rise to higher level, the driver would clock down the GPU to maintain the temperature at the lower level.

  Of course, as I said above, you might try to test the drivers from nVidia page but it is at your own risk.

• Some keys no longer work on Satellite A200-196 after Windows 7 update

  Hi all, I've just upgraded computer laptop of my partner (a Toshiba Satellite A200-196) to Windows 7 after you initially install Windows XP on it (it came with Vista).

  After the XP update, I noticed that some keys were not working. I don't remember the process that I used to solve the problem, but the difficulty that I did, and they were all soon works perfectly. So this is a software problem and not material. I think he might have something to do with the FN key - but I can't be sure.

  Now, I just upgraded the same machine and I have exactly the same problem. Keys that don't work are Backspace, O, P, F, H, K and L.

  Can anyone help please? I tried to reinstall Win7 and the problem is still there.

  Thank you very much

  Andy

  > The keys that don't work are Backspace, O, P, F, H, K and L.

  These keys have nothing to do with the missing software.
  Indeed, the function key (FN key) needs a Toshiba utility particular installation / software to make it work, but the keys Backspace, O, P, F, H, K and L are common keys on the keyboard that don t need no special software.

  That's why I think that the problem is hardware related: simple keyboard malfunction.
  I guess that all of these keys work correctly if you sign in and use the external USB keyboard.

• Some games do not work on a Satellite A60

  I currently own a Satellite A60 with Mobile Radeon 7000 IGP, however some games if just bought don't work, they are not 'new games' its title as «Command and Conquer Generals»

  You can up grade the graphics card in a laptop with those located on the open market, or do you need a special card?

  Update graphics card is not possible because the graphics card is part of the motherboard. Unfortunately the upgrade options are not as good as on desktop computers.

• Some software no longer works

  I get a message to go on the web and find the download to repair the files that no longer work. I download the program on the Microsoft site, but after that it runs and told me what files need to be fixed, I have to pay. Is there a free download tool which will find and solve problems for free?

  It would have been better if you had given the real name of the "download to repair the files", etc. Microsoft does not make you pay for the fixes. It seems much more likely to me that your computer is infected with one of the many variants rogue security program. These rascals to masquerade as legitimate programs and can look very similar as they come from Microsoft, but they do not. Read General information about the rogues below, but if it's all too much (and without shame in this case; we have all our fields of expertiese), take the computer to a local reputable professional. Do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place.

  Your system is infected with a rogue security program. It's called "thugs" because he pretended to be a good guy but is really bad. Don't pay them!

  Malwarebytes' Anti-malware (MBAM) or SuperAntiSpyware will often do the job. Both have free versions and you don't need to buy these programs.

  These can work for you, and all can be good. However, in many cases the computer will also infected with other horses of Trojan and protected by a rootkit. These machines are extremely difficult to clean. If your machine is one of these cases, either the interactive assistance to one of the specialty forums listed in the link below, OR take your machine to a professional on the local computer OR backup your data and do a clean install of Windows. It's your choice. I do not recommend using BigComputerStore/GeekSquad types of places.

• Vista event log no longer works

  I recently discovered that I can no longer start Windows event log service.  I believe that this began after the last Windows Update has been installed.

  When you attempt to start the service I get the following error: "error 4201: the instance name passed was not recognized as valid by a WMI data provider."  The services that depend of the event viewer (Event Collector and Task Scheduler) are started, but of course they also do not work.  I tried all the suggestions to solve this problem that are listed in the Technet Forum without success.

  While other Windows Vista technical forums, I discovered there are a large NUMBER of users who also are exeriencing this dilemma.  Some are able to fix problems while others (including me) are not.

  Can anyone offer additional help to fix this problem?

  If Toshiba did not provide your system with backup of your data and/or the system, you will have to make do with what you have. If there is a way for you to save a copy of the exported user settings and data that you can create with Windows Easy Transfer, you can use it to restore all after you have made a "restore to the default settings of the factor" from the recovery disc. This would exclude the software installed after that.

  There are also lucky when you run recovery disks which would offer you a "repair" that would be worth a try.

  do you think really that the windows team should deal with this issue, but hey ho only paid more than 600 books for her (sarcastic) should probably have to have an apple I'm sure that they don't block you on a product you have the money paid for!

  and then said to beg the assistance community (much hope you get paid for it btw)

  Sorry to be wasting your time really don't know why Microsoft cannot give me a new code or just to validate ive got. Thank you for your time and effort finally someone is willing to help.

  don't know how to take this answer seems a bit sarcastic to me.

  I had to take it to a repair shop, and the license was upgraded to windows 7.

  the guy said, very probably, it was due to an update so Microsoft computer continues Microsoft's monopoly people mess up or slow it down systems then offer an upgrade at a cost.

  its not like apple alone there have admitted doing this with here I phones

  It's not sarcasm; What are the rules of licensing.

  You can not transfer OEM licenses between computers/laptops.

• Car game no longer works after my iOS updated 9.3.2 to level today

  How can I fix?

  works for phones that have not upgraded to this version of iOS

  Try a forced reboot. Hold down the home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously for about 15-20 seconds , until the Apple logo appears. You won't lose anything.

  If a force restart does not help, try a system restore. First save your device via iTunes. Also import your photos on your computer and copy all the important data. Reconstruction of the support first test and test. If this does not help, you may need to restore as a new and reconfigure from scratch as the backup may be damaged. It is important to have your photos and your saved data separately from the backup. Here are the steps for a restoration:
