Display driver error on Satellite A200-14D

Hi,
When i try to install on my Toshiba laptop(Satellite A200 14D with XP) a game...... i get an error message saying "Could not initialize graphics system. Make sure that your video card and driver are compatible with "DirectDraw"
How can i get help with this problem?!
Thank you for your help.

Hi,
you have several options to solve that problem.
First, check the [Toshiba Driver Download Site|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp] for the newest drivers. If they dont help, go to [Laptopvideo2Go.com|http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/] which is also really good site with vga drivers.
Sideways you should update your [DirectX|http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=2DA43D38-DB71-4C1B-BC6A-9B6652CD92A3&displaylang=en] to the latest version.
Please give a post back if nothing helped.

Windows 7 display driver error on Satellite L300D

Hey guys, I have recently upgraded the OS on my Satellite L300D (PSLC8A), from Vista 32bit to Win7 32bit, but I need a better driver for the graphics card, an ATI Radeon 3100 256MB, and every time I try and run either the Win7 driver from the ATI website, or even the graphics drivers from the Toshiba websites (Ive tried the Vista display driver, the display driver for the Satellite L300D-ST3501 from the European website for windows 7 display driver etc etc) and every time I try, I get the same message, it goes through the entire process, then says it fails, always failing at the same part, at the ATI Display Driver installation
Am I trying the wrong driver? Is there not one out for my laptop for 7? I dont quite understand, and any help would be appreciated
Also like to point out, that Ive attempted to allow it to tell me when Win7 finds something new and needs permission, and have tried running *every* time in admin mode.

Hi
First of all you should find out what graphic card is built-in.
Install an free hardware diagnostic tool. You could use Everest Home Edit. for example.
This would help you to get more details about your GPU.
After that you could investigate a little bit what Toshiba notebooks have been equipped with the same graphic card chip.
I noticed that many series use the same devices like the same graphic card or chipset
Anyway. The Toshiba US driver page contains many Win 7 drivers you will find also some Win 7 drivers on Toshiba European driver page
Download the ATI driver for a notebook which has been equipped with the same graphic chip and you would get the compatible one!
Then install the driver in device manager! Yes, go to device manager and use the advanced installation this allows you to point to the ATI driver files.
This installation procedure should work

Satellite T130-02F - Display Driver Error

Hi There,
I just purchased the Satellite T130-02F and after choosing 32bit running system I had the power connected to charge battery up and then started to get "display driver errors" where the screen would flash black and then flash back on. I've checked device manager and driver details, the drive is upto date and as far as I can see is the correct driver. I've searched sites to see if there ar other drivers out there, but its up to date.
I haven't installed anything extra on the computer yet and find I get the error more regularly on the battery rather than power which concerns me. The computer is less than 24hrs old.
Any advice?
Mobile Intel (R) display chip set.
Windows 7 installed 32bit.

Hi
In your case I would try reinstalling the display driver. You can find the latest version on the Toshiba website:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Download Drivers
After this make sure that the newest BIOS version is installed. You can download it on the Toshiba website too.
If nothing works your only chance is an authorized service provider. It seems to be a hardware problem and must be checked from professional people.

Where can I find a BIOS update for Satellite A200-14D (PSAEC)

Hello,
Where can I find a BIOS update for this model?
My bios is 23/10/07 Windows Vista 32 Bit 1.80-WIN

Hi
Did you check the Toshiba European driver page?
There you could find all drivers and BIOS for the Satellite A200-14D (PSAEC)
But I checked the page and the BIOS 1.8 for Win Vista 32bit is still the newest one.
Seems you are already up to date buddy ;)

Have a Sony Viao E series and get an "imcompatible display driver" error message

Get an "Incompatible Display Driver" error message when attempting to use Adobe Premiere Elements 12 on a Sony Vaio E series laptop.
How to solve this problem?
Thanks

I Googled, and Sony says that is a discontinued model, so I can't find a specification page
Amazon does have a couple models, and BOTH say motherboard integrated Intel graphics adapter
That makes me think the laptop discussed here has Intel AND AMD graphics adapters
To the OP (Original Poster) Go to the Windows Control Panel and select Hardware and Sound and then select Device Manager... In Device manager you click the + sign to the left of Display Adapters... and see if 2 are listed
If YES, read below

Nvidia Display Driver Error

New T61-CTO system, Vista 32 with Nvidia Quadro NVS140M that is not even a week old.
The system is very unstable, crashing almost daily with a display driver error. About half the time it is able to recover and I get the following message, "Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding but has recovered.....". The other half the computer crashes to blue screen or just freezes with a corrupted display and I am forced to hard-power-off to restart. About 75% of the time the error occurs at startup, but sometimes just randomly while working.
There is lots of info about this driver problem online but mostly for different display adaptors on desktop systems. For the record I have the following display driver installed: 7.15.11.5685 and it is dated 12/10/07. Nvidia does not provide support for this display adaptor and refers you to the system manufacturer. Strangely, the driver on the Lenovo site is 7.15.11.0145 and dated 7/12/07, not sure why my system shipped with a driver that is not listed on the support site.
Any information on resloving this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi WillThePill, and welcome to the Lenovo User Community!
I come up with a newer driver version 7.15.11.7693 2009/01/13 on the Lenovo support site:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-67890

Display Driver Update for Satellite L30-105

Could anyone give me an idiots guide on how to update a display driver for my Satellite L30-105 ( PSL33E ) PLEASE?

LOL. You need a idiot guide?? Come on man ;)
Ok, here is my guide;
Download the graphic driver for your notebook model.
Unzip the package.
Then access the device manager, mark the graphic card, update driver.
Then a new window will open.
There you have to use the second Advanced option.
Then choose the option called Dont search. I will chose the driver (or something like that)
Then point to the place where the driver package has been stored on the HDD and finish the installation.

Display driver error while playing games on Satellite P100-387 PSPA3E

Hi,
I have a Satellite P-100 387 PSPA3E notebook (with Nvidia 7600 GO 256 MB) and no matter what game I play I get a stop error-blue screen of death all the time and must restart.
It happens while I play either "Command & Conquere-Tiberium Wars" or "Warcraft III" (which can run on ANY low end machine).Did the BIOS update and got the latest display driver from Toshiba support. Nothing. Also, Ive tryed ALL the driver versions from Nvidia and from LaptopVideo2go.com with modded inf-s.
Dont know what else to do so I post here before contacting Toshiba. I have a valid warranty on the machine. Running XP MediaCentar which came with it.
THX in advance!

I am heading to bed in a minute, but will look at driver details tomorrow.
I seem to remember that the latest BIOS update improved something to do with graphics.
Yes, I've got the 7600 go graphics card.
You have good ventilation to the laptop? (i.e. you don't have it running on a deep pile carpet, or on a big deep duvet or something?)
I tried the Nvidia drivers too but they dont work, it has to be the drivers from Toshiba.
Suggest you do a system restore, and if that does not help re-flash your BIOS
The link to the driver updates was good, but not for the laptop.

Satellite A200-14D PSAECE - Fn keys not working & other function keys

Hello,
1) i am asking for your help about installing my Fn keys drivers for my Satellite A200 14 D PSAECE laptop.
My OS is Windows XP and i have Bitdefender Internet Security 2009 .
From the download page of Toshiba drivers i got all drivers for my laptop (36 of all - or close), but from the many Xp reinstalations i have done on my laptop, only one time all Fn keys worked when pressing Fn+key and the corresponding icons appeared on my display. I have read some forum topics and i understand there is a problem about the order in which i have to install them ( i already installed them all but it is not working ), so i need someone to tell me which are the drivers for Fn keys only and in which order to install. Please do not forget that i can deactivate my Bitdefender but not uninstall .
2) the same problem with the preset buttons above the keys - On-Off, Internet, Media Player, Play-Stop-Rewind, i need the exact driver and the order.
Thank you for your time :)
Sorry if this question is already answer in the forum somewhere, but i could not get this exact answer.

so i need to install every name of driver or utility that appears twice with the same name but made by different companies ?
I will write down how it is described in the text file with instalation instructions, then i will mark the ones that are available for dld with *"i have it"*, also the order that i will install will be the ascending order of numbers at the beginning of each driver/utility, the ones that do not appear in the dld page of Toshiba will be marked *"unavailable for dld"* . +Can you please check the order of ALL that are "i have it" and the ones with questions and confirm if the all drivers are prezent here with the correct order of instalation ?+ Thanks :)

Windows update 80072efd error on Satellite A200

Hello
Windows update doesnt work on my Satellite A200. When I try to search for new updates, after about 10 minutes appears error 80072efd. Of course Ive made all suggested solutions, but no results. Operating System is Vista Home Premium and there is Norton Internet Security installed as a firewall.
Ive tried to start windows update, when Norton firewall was turned off, but the result was the same error 80072efd.
Does everyone know what can I do more?
Regards
Piter

I see this problem quite regularly at work when trying to do the 1st update of a new installation of XP (is this your O/S)
The problem seems to be the update of the update service if that makes sense. What I have found is that if I manually install the necessary updates then the next stage works.
Download (www.microsoft.com/downloads and search for them) KB893803 and KB842773 and install them, you may get a message that one of them is already applied. These are two of the three files downloaded when you initially try to update a new build. The third does not matter but I normally find this then fixes the error.
Also go through the regional and keyboard settings carefully and make sure they all match, I had this once where the time zone did not agree with the localisation option. Kerberos security will not allow connections if the PC clock is wrong to the server and if you are in the wrong time zone then it see this as the clock being wrong.

Photoshop CS4 Display Driver Error

I have a user who is using Photoshop CS4 on a Dell Optiplex 745, with onboard Intel video. Since I read that Photoshop now uses OpenGL heavily in its operations, and also understanding that OpenGL support is pretty bad on Intels integrated video, we put an Nvidia GeForce8400 card in the PCIExpress slot, and loaded the latest drivers from Nvidia (version 182.50 currently). The user reports he periodically gets the attached error message, "Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver and has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturers website for the latest software"... Knowing that some other OpenGL-enabled software is picky about what version of Nvidia graphics drivers are installed, I wonder if this is what we're seeing here... Anybody have some insight on this?
Dave

Did you disable the onboard graphics in the BIOS?

"GPU enhancements/display driver" error with NVidia GeForce 8600 GTS

I am currently evaluating a demo of Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended. I am using a NVidia GeForce 8600 GTS video card. When I open the application, I get this error:
Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disables GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturer's website for the latest software.
GPU enhancements can be enabled in the Performance panel of Preferences.
Here's the thing - the NVidia graphics driver I'm using is current! It's version 195.62. And here are the specifications of my video card (which is about a few years old).
I am using Windows XP Home 32-bit SP3 with 2GB of DDR2 memory. Processor is AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+.
I've read over the functionality that this error message affects, and I'm not sure I understand it. If my video card is using its most current driver, what the heck am I to do? How badly will this handicap my Adobe Photoshop experience? (For reference, I plan on not doing that much using the 3D capabilities of Photoshop - but it may be interesting one day.)
Also, one bug I'm experiencing is that the Layers window is present, but its contents don't appear unless I click on it.
I'm not sure if I'm open to buying a new video card just to satisfy my Photoshop needs. Any help is much appreciated in overcoming this error and enabling FULLY-operational functionality of Photoshop CS4. Thanks!

Here is a link that may help with old GPU's. Also ensure before you update the drivers that opengl is turned off otherwise PS will use the old drivers.

How to install Vista display driver on my Satellite M55?

Hello
I have Windows Vista on my laptop Satellite M55 but I cannot instal my display driver :(
How can I install display driver on Vista?
Vista knows Mobile Intel(R) 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Chipset Family (Microsoft Corporation - XDDM)
I wanna instal my graphic card on Vista OS
Pleas help me
Thnx

Hi!
Sorry but you will not get drivers for this Intel chipset and Vista.
I searched on the Toshiba and Intel website and there are no drivers for Vista available. So must use Windows XP, there is no support or drivers for this chipset and Vista.
Bye
