Video memory on the Go 7900 GTX went wrong - new card?

Hey guys, according to diagnostic tests, the video memory in my nVidia Geforce Go 7900 GTX went wrong. I have a XPS M1710. I'm ready to buy another card or upgrade, but I can't seem to contact Dell without re - certify my guarantee - that seems a bit ridiculous. To make things worse, I just moved to the Australia of Czech Republic - and there is a bit of a language barrier. Unable to find one on eBay. And I said... it's hard to get in touch with Dell (here at least). Maybe I'll be stupid, but it's me nervous a little, and let me just go back to work. If anyone has ANY advice... I would be very happy.

    Thank you.

  • Increase the video memory of the A40-211

    Hi all

    I have the Satellite A40-211. The Intel chipset also supports all of the graphical stuff, so he needs a little more memory RAM as video memory. This is possible up to a maximum of 64 MB. The problem is that the chipset is now using a maximum of 16 MB of video memory, but I want to expand this to 64 MB.

    Where can I find the settings for this in Windows XP Home Edition?

    Thanks for all the help!

    Bart

    Hi, it s not possible to increase the video memory yourself!

    Let me tell you that your laptop is a dynamic memory management

    Your computer system reserved graphic only as much memory as it needs to accomplish all tasks running on your A40.

    .. dynamic video sharing .This is not bad, as I think!

    More info on your graphics chip basic find on pages of Intel.

  • How to increase the video memory on the 900 yoga?

    Hello just curious if anyone knows how I can increase the video memory on my new yoga 900. I looked at the bios screen, and I don't see an option to change it. Thanks in advance.

    Good day and welcome to the community.

  • How to set the use of video memory on the graphics card to my laptop cq56-110us?

    Hello

    I have a PC Compaq laptop CQ56-110us.  Windows 7 says is has 797 MB video memory shared from the main memory of 2 GB.  I want to reduce the use of video memory, i.e. 256MB.  Is this possible?  If yes how.  I would appreciate help with this.

    Thank you

    Don

    Don, welcome to the forum.

    Built-in memory is allocated by the system.  As more video memory is required, is allocated.  There is no way that you can change.

  • WRT160N v2: the latest firmware update went wrong!

    Hello

    I just bought this new thing, it is not connected to the internet (wrt160n-> cable modem-> internet)

    so I tried the last thing: upgrade to the latest firmware 2.0.02
    The upgrade - trial went fast enough at 98%, but remained there for about 3-5 minutes.

    Then finally: successful update.

    It has rebooted, my computer got an IP address again, but still no internet.
    So I went to the page of configuration of the wrt160n, entered ID + password and then...

    ... a screen almost empty! No menu, page actually kind of corrupt.
    I unplugged the router from the power, waited for 60 seconds, retried: same question.

    Any thoughts?

    Thank you!

    Did you try a hard reset, use a pen that I think just next to the power plug to the back of the router there is a reset button with the router connected to the power hold it down until you see the flashing front light put your factory after that

    1. set up your router using the cd that came with it

    2. After setting up is done and you are able to go online try the update again

    that should do the job

  • Can I change the video memory on my Satellite C855?

    My daughter has a Toshiba Satellite C855 1pj him for Christmas, we bought and wants to run the Sims 3 island paradise, but when she checks on systemrequirementslab.com he tell her that she has 64 MB of dedicated video memory and the game needs a minimum of 128 MB, is it possible to change or otherwise the game will still run on the 64 MB

    Thank you

    Karen

    Hello

    No, you cannot change this value manually. This is controlled by GPU driver.

    First of all, I must say that this laptop Satellite C855-1pj isn t gaming notebook because its supports a graph of Intel HD internal common chip. Playbook should be equipped with an ATI or nVidia GPU external.

    However, the computer laptop specifications page http://www.toshiba.co.uk/discontinued-products/satellite-c855-1gp/ said that the Intel HD supports up to 1 696 MB shared memory with 4 GB of RAM

    Eventually, you should be able to run the game, but with lower graphic settings.

  • Problems of artefact and video memory XPS 1710

    My XPS M1710 has been giving me some trouble at the end.

    I have some video artifacts: scattered multicolored on-screen points as soon as BIOS starts through Win XP and Ubuntu desktop computers. Also get random garbled multicolor text in command prompt console modes, BIOS, diagnosis and recovery. Points appear from the moment wherever my BIOS start, always in the same places, and increase in number as the system warms. This seems to be a clear sign of damage to the video memory.

    My hard drive also shows signs of damage: became an unmountable boot volume error. After running chkdsk partial (stopped at Midway after he had run 12 hours) and fixboot + fixmbr commands in the recovery console, I was able to boot win XP Pro again. But after a day of work, I got the blue screen with an error ntfs.sys. Now its been ntfs BSOD every time I start. CHKDSK now tells me that there is a fatal buffer on the hard drive, and I can't reinstall windows (ntfs format is freezing at 68%).

    My BIOS diagnostics said a few defective stamps on one of my RAM cards as well as on my hard drive. The diagnosis is also showing errors on the video memory test.

    My vid card is 256 MB geforce GO 7900 GS. I know the vid card also uses some of the main RAM (shared memory).

    I'm trying to figure out if the problem of video artifacts is due only to either damaged dedicated video memory or cause the main RAM / hard drive. Did the diagnostic test video memory for the memory on the video card itself?

    I know with certainty that one of the cards computer RAM is faulty: after removing the MEAC diagnosis clear memory for the other RAM card. But even with removed faulty RAM memory, video objects are still there and the diagnosis is still showing a video memory error. Logically, which seems to mean that the memory on the video card is partially fried as well. Am I correct to infer from this?

    would appreciate any pointers. Replacement of the HD and RAM is relatively expensive, but having to replace the graphics card on a XPS is pretty hefty ($299 second hand)... Although the graphics card could wait until I have save little money, since points are not that huge a problem yet.


  • Satellite 5200 - alteration of video memory

    A month ago, I encountered a problem with a slightly garbled screen
    on the internal and external screens. More or less visible vertical
    stripes appear on the screen. They are mainly blue on dark background
    (better visible) or yellow on white background (less visible) and have
    approximately the same thickness of 1-2 mm and length of order order
    1 cm. The locations of the bands depend on the position of the details
    actual image currently displayed on the screen.

    The start screen is also but now clouded by red vertical stripes on the left and right of the red logo "In Touch with tomorrow Toshiba".
    Full text-mode screen, strange characters appear in positions that are correlated with the positions of real characters.
    The Test Pro BurnIn V4.0 indicates a video memory corruption (the card is NVIDIA GeForce4 460 Go, 64 MB, integrated RAMDAC). It's very interesting, yesterday
    There was a short period of about 5 minutes, when all the symptoms described above has suddenly disappeared.
    Even the BurnIn Test showed that everything is OK. But after this period, the symptoms recovered again. For this
    reason, I would like to ask how to solve the problem.

    It is indeed a bad video memory that can recover and then go back to being bad or other reasons, such as poor connectivity, etc. ?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Not easy to say what can be the problem, but if you write red vertical stripes on the left and right of the red logo "In Touch with tomorrow Toshiba" it may be a hardware problem. I think just detailed by a technician tests can give you more information about hardware malfunction.

  • Question about the memory of the speeds on Qosmio G30-175

    Hi all

    I have a G30 - 175 and it came with 1gig of memory. and the other day I went to pc world and bought a 2 giga upgrade. The seller asked me what memory speed would I like for my laptop, knowing that the ddr2 at 533 mhz memory, so I asked for it.

    When I came home and replaced the memory, I noticed that the memory supplied with the laptop was actually s pc2-4200 ddr2 533 mhz. the memory that I got from pc world was of the pc2-4300 ddr2 at 533 mhz.

    It would be allowed to go ahead and install this memory, or should I expect pc2-4200?

    Thanks in advance
