videocard, vista Home premium

I'm playing a video game on my pc and it runs real slow.  I was told that I need a different video card that can handle the game.  Where can I get this information on my pc.  I am running windows vista Home premium 32-bit.

You contact the manufacturer of video games.

Ask them what their system requirements are for their graphic game on, RAM, etc.

You then add the appropriate hardware/software they need to add.

There is nothing to do with Vista; It is all to do with the game maker.

See you soon.

  • Re use Vista Home Premium Upgrade disc

    Hello

    I bought and Vista Home Premium Upgrade disc and upgraded to Windows XP.  Unfortunately my PC has not enough graphics to run Aero and DVD Maker (915 chipset), and I had tried unsuccessfully to introduce a new videocard (power problem).  So I gave up with this PC and will probably go back to XP or get a copy of Vista Home Basic which will be OK on this PC.

    I did the clean installation thing with the upgrade disk if my old XP system is not affected and can be restored without problem.

    My question is:

    If I buy a latest PC who has the necessary graphics to run the Home Premium edition, can I re reuse the upgrade disc, or the activation process will fail because of "improved" after having already.

    Thanks for your help

    Hi Evereti,

    You can try installing upgrade of Windows Vista on another PC as if you removed completely from Windows Vista to Windows XP PC. You will not be able to use the same copy on two different computers at the same time. It will affect the Product Activation.

  • Satellite P200: Screensaver does not start on Vista Home Premium

    Hi people!

    I tried to apply the option on my laptop screen saver (Satellite P200), equipped with Vista Home Premium, but it does not; the laptop everything continues to run after the game of elapsed time. Is this a known problem with Vista? All suggestions received with gratitude, thank you!

    Hello

    Can I ask you if you use the Microsoft wireless mouse?
    I discovered that this may affect the functionality of the screensaver on Vista OS.

    Strange!

  • Satellite A200 - Vista Home Premium to ultimate upgrade

    Hi back from the guy with a new query.

    "" I'm looking to upgrade Vista Home Premium to Ultimate... checked the requirements of what is known on the "Windows anytime upgrade" site and I can you there is a lot of conflicting ideas on how its all done up to the fact that I would need a disc to upgrade mailed to me.

    After reading a few other forums recently, the answer lies in what you guys can or perhaps are not able to advise me... and the question is:

    Only the so-called "rescue disk" provided with the purchase, IE the Windows operating system disk... ALL CONTAIN THE ' VISTA "SYSTEMS AVAILABLE..." Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate? and very unlikely, but she coded upgrade or anything like that, as its meant to be to perform upgrades?

    Thanks a lot again in anticipation of your kind comments

    Andrew.

    Firs of all I think you should know that it is a forum for users and to my knowledge, there is no guy from Toshiba which could provide instructions.
    I know, it's, your Toshiba Recovery DVD contains the same Win Vista that was preinstalled on your laptop.
    It seems that you bought this laptop with Vista Home Premium and this operating system should be placed on the recovery media.

    Please DON t mix the Toshiba Recovery DVD with a DVD of new, original and clean Microsoft Vista.
    Toshiba Recovery contains an image include the OS, drivers, tools and additional software.
    It s already active.

    The MS Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista but to use a version of Vista that a right serial key must be inserted.

    Hope I could make a clarification.

    Hello

    Sorry do you need exactly? Do you need disc recovery Toshiba or d you must have Microsoft Vista disk?

  • Would Satellite U300-11V running Vista Home Premium 64?

    Hi all

    I have a Toshiba Satellite U300-11V

    The laptop came with Vista Home Premium (32) and I would like to upgrade to the 64-bit version and I wonder if my hardware is actually compatible with it.

    I tried the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor, but that had nothing to do with 32 vs 64...

    You can find the full specifications of my laptop to the:
    http://UK.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?PRODUCT_ID=132428&disc _ MODEL = 1 & service = UK & tab = 2 #2

    Any suggestion would be deeply appreciated

    Kind regards
    R

    Of course, it s compatible with Vista 64 bit OS.
    Satellite U300-11V belongs to the series of PSU30E.
    I checked the European driver Toshiba page if a 64 bit Vista drivers are available, but unfortunately, they are not released.

    However, you would be able to install Vista 64-bit on your laptop, but you have to collect the drivers Vista 64 bit unique from other series of laptop.

    Several series of laptops are equipped with the same features and sometimes, you can use the same drivers on different laptops.

  • Strange problem with Vista Home premium configuration update

    Just bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300-1AI which was preloaded with Vista Home Premium.

    Clicked on configure updates on the front screen and he entered a loop that says: Configuring updates: stage 3 of 3-0% complete. Do not turn off your computer.

    Every 5 minutes or so then stops and restarts with the same message. I left on for 8 hours, so can not believe he needs for this long. Just tried to set off, but when you restart it defaults as shown above.

    Please advise... even if you can get me right back to the normal screen before

    Hello

    Try please start your computer in safe mode and restore your operating system to an earlier time (before the update). Maybe this will help.

    In the future be careful with updates. I recommend you to disable the automatic update. Just check the list with updated supply and install important and recommended only. Disable all optional updates. You don't need them.

  • Update of Windows Vista Home Premium - code 80070490 error:

    Computer - Satellite 200
    Operating system - Vista Home Premium (service pack 1)
    Problem - when I try to update Windows Update (manual and automatic) I get the error code 80070490
    I tried - system restore, download and pay for 'RegCure' and following the instructions on the Microsoft forum without success.
    The computer was shipped with a recovery disc that has no installation to 'fix '.
    If you have a solution that does not involve a complete re - load I would be very grateful
    Please make understandable instructions for a non-techie!

    Thank you

    There is an article on this issue in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3ben-us%3B958044&x=10&y=4

    So I think that you need to reinstall the computer with the recovery disc.
    Boot from the diskette or press F8 at startup, choose "repair your computer".
    and follow the instructions in the menu.
    Then the HARD drive will be formatted so back up your data.

    Hmm, I assume that you will not need to boot from the CD of Vista Business, but you have to start the DVD of Vista Business running Vista Home Edition.

    However, I m not 100% sure, but I guess that it s the same procedure like an update of Win XP Home Pro.
