Equium A300D - Toshiba ATI display driver upgrade is not working

Hi
Has anybody else found the Equium A300D PSAK2E Windows Vista 32 bit Toshiba ATI display driver download will not work from the download centre? If you choose run, the download causes the windows explorer to crash during the install and the upgrade fails, the same with save and the install does not self install.
I have been trying to get the TV out S-Video port working. See thread on TV out not working. I have tried everything. has anybody else got this problem as Toshiba are unaware of any problems with the S Video TV out not working on this machine.
Thanks Vince

Hi,
The down load downloads ok but when you try and unzip it, then install it halfay through you get an error message stating windows explorer has stopped working and it has crashed. The Graphic card then will not work. I have tried uninstalling all the ATI software and deleting the left over files but it still wont install.
I have downloaded the programme from the ATI site and this installed ok and the graphic card is working. The s video tv port still will not work.
I have gone into great detail on the post regarding the TV out not working about what i have done. When the s video lead is connected the computer can see the tv but will not output, when you try and enable the display the display will not enable. I have used the FN f5 key with no success, changed settings on the avi controller and display settings in the control panel
I will take the machine back to where i bought it from next week and see if they can get it to work!

ATI display driver fails to work with new kernel

Hi,
I've just upgraded from
OEL kernel-2.6.18-194.11.3.0.1.el5.x86_64
to most current
OEL kernel-2.6.18-194.11.4.0.1.el5.x86_64
and got the problem with ATI display driver. Whenever I perform kernel upgrade, I have to recompile vendor-provided ATI display driver downloadable from AMD/ATI site, because system ATI driver, provided by OEL/RHEL as kernel module, doesn't work properly (too slow). I did that hundred times and never had a problem. This time the problem is that after upgrading to new kernel and recompiling the existing ATI display driver (Revision 10.8), it doesn't work anymore, even though it worked perfectly with previous kernel. I cannot even start X11 (glibc problem reported with stack traces!!!). The newest ATI display driver (Revision 10.9) "works" with new kernel, but display is awfully slow making any serious work impossible. It is even slower than system-provided ATI driver.
I am pretty sure the problem is in new kernel. As I have no backup of old kernel files and couldn't download the previous OEL kernel files from ULN, neither binary nor source (the files do not exist on ULN anymore, only the recent kernel files), I downloaded the previous kernel source from ftp.redhat.com, compiled the kernel and downgraded to it, recompiled ATI display driver, and everything works properly and fast as before upgrading. I can remember that ULN site used to have all kernel versions prior to actual one and cannot understand why Oracle dropped this practice. As I have an ULN account, I certainly want to have OEL patched kernel.
My question is: does anybody know how and where I can download the previous OEL kernel-2.6.18-194.11.3.0.1.el5.x86_64 binary rpm files or at least source rpm file?
Maybe Sergio or Tommy can help?
Thanks in advance.

I have experienced the same with Ubuntu some years ago - specific feature (hack?) that was implemented in the kernel was deprecated. This was used by the display driver for an onboard Intel graphics chipset. Beryl (which was subsequently merged with Compiz) turned into a horribly slow experience. As far as I recall, a subsequent kernel patch "fixed" things as a number of users were affected, of which many complained very loudly.
Anyway, I think the lesson here is that OEL is not really the correct distro to use for a desktop. A broken ATI driver for the OEL kernel? Does not really feature in the scheme of things for OEL support. Oracle Grid/RAC/Enterprise/Standard Edition do not care. Oracle's application servers (Apache, Weblogic, etc) do not care. Etc.
Sure, GUI desktop access to an OEL server is needed (like when running dbca or an installer) - but that can easily and effectively be done using vncserver for example and running twm.
You may be able to fix/work-around the problem with the current kernel update.. you may be able to roll back the update. But what about the next time when some other component does not work after a patch or an update? Surely it is a lot less stressful and frustrating to rather use a desktop distro, like Ubuntu, instead?

Satellite Pro A60: ATI display driver keeps breaking down

I have had my Sat pro A60 Laptop for about a year now.
I have had a few problems with it since I got it but the main problem has just occured within the last 6-7 months.
The ATI display driver keeps on breaking down and in order for it to work I have to restart the system. This has been an ongoing problem for quite some time and it's now getting rather irriating. It does it at the most inconvenient times like when I am watching a DVD or listening to a CD.
Sometimes when I put the computer on standby, the display doesn't even start up again and the screen remains blank. In order to sort this out I have to switch off the laptop and then restart it. The main problem I have put this down to is overheating as it can get quite hot when I use it.
I sort of know how to sort this problem out, just by clearing dust from the fans. But if there is any other solution to this please help.
Thanks!

Hi
Mostly the overheating happens because of the dirt and dust inside of the cooling modules. The fans cannot work properly and cannot spin with full performance.
I think you should check the fans. I think the easiest way to clean the fans is to use the vacuum cleaner hose against the fan grilles.
About the display issue: In your case I would recommend firstly to update the display driver. Additional if the OS runs since a long time on the notebook so maybe a new OS installation form the Toshiba recovery CD would help.

ATI Display Driver

I am trying to install the the ATI Display Driver package for a T500 without any of the applications that are included with it. In other words, I only want to install the drivers and nothing else like the Catalyst Control Center, etc.
When I try to do a customized install, I cannot uncheck any of the boxes I don't want installed. It seems like it is all or nothing. what's customizable about that?
Is there a way to do what I want?
Thanks

You could ignore the fact that catalyst control center is installed and just remove CCC from startup (under HKLM\.....\Run in registry) when Windows is starting. Or you could uncompress the package and just install the driver by going into device manager and choose to update driver the driver then select the directory where you uncompressed the package.

Monitor Is Flickering - ATI Display Driver Problem Error Message

Hello, for the last few weeks, I have been having a monitor issue. Everytime I turn my computer and monitor on, it is flickering like crazy on my HP 2509B Desktop Monitor, and on the right bottom corner a flag shows up with ATI Display driver, and I am trying to figure out how to repair this monitor issue. I don't know if it is coming from the Monitor itself or its coming from the Mother Board TOWER, I am going crazy with this and its hurting my eyes everytime I turn it.
Sometimes the flickering would just go off by itself, and now its doing it constantly. I don't know what to do with this.
I love my monitor and I hate to see to replace it or something. Please help me with this. I hope it is not a driver hardware issue.
I would greatly appreciate all the help I can get to do this myself if not then I am going to have to take to the store I bought it from and get them to help me out, but I want to do this on my own. If you can help. Thanks

if you have another monitor you can test it to see if if does the same thing and also check the cable and maybe use a different one to see if the cable is not the cause which i doubt
Please provide Kudos to whom has provided answers or
good points or advice..
Aslo if the questions or issues solved please check it

[W500 and Windows 7] ati display driver stopped responding and has recovered

Hi,
I installed Windows 7 64bit on my W500 (almost 3 weeks old). It installed a driver for the ATI display card from Windows Update. However, since yesterday, I regularly get a driver crash (I assume...).
It's happening when I'm scrolling in a webpage, suddenly the page hangs, the mouse and Windows itself hangs seconds later and after that, after 5 seconds, my screen goes black, the machine beeps and it's back. In the tray, I get an error: ati display driver stopped responding and has recovered.
In the details of the driver, the following can be seen:
Driver Date: 28/04/2009
Driver Version: 8.612.0.0
The card is recognized as a 3650.
Am I doing something wrong here? Can I test with another driver (I tried installing the Windows Vista 64bit, but it doesn't seem to be willing to install...)?
Thanks in advance,
gill

I have the exact same hardware and software (Win7 64) and I'm getting precisely the same symptoms, screen blanks out when I am scrolling a web page vertically using the trackpoint and the center blue trackpoint scroll button.
It's really annoying.
It also never happens when the laptop is in the dock, or when the integrated graphics are engaged, this only happens when the ATI chip is running and only since ATI released the new Windows 7 drivers.
Previously I'd ran this box on on Win7 64 but used the Vista 64 bit graphics drivers from ATI and didn't have the problem, but installation was a pain.

ATI display driver rollback

I have desktop running Enterprise Linux server 2.6.18-164. Recently I installed ATI display driver on it. After that I am not able to restart my machine. Is there any way to roll back the recent driver changes???

You can try to boot in text mode (no graphics) and check /etc/X11 directory. Usually, whenever a change in graphics settings occurs, the system makes a backup of the original configuration file (xorg.conf) and then applies the new settings. So, you can try to replace the current configuration file (xorg.conf) with the old one (xorg.conf.backup), if it exists...

Why my Toshiba mobile hard drive (1TB) can not be used in the macbook air?

Why my Toshiba mobile hard drive (1TB) can not be used in the macbook air?

If you are speaking of the USB 3.0 Canvio, you are not alone. Call Toshiba and check on their progress in alleviating the problem. I heard they are blaming Apple, but since theirs is the only drive that exhibits this problem, I think the burden is on Toshiba.
Some users have reported that by using a micro USB 2.0 connector (see bottom picture), instead of the 3.0 that comes with the drive, that it is a workaround. Notice that the 3.0 connector has sort of a "dual head" nature to the construction. One part of it is 2.0 USB micro compatible. I've never tried it myself though.

Saved Shopping Cart Display/Edit functions are not working

Hello SRM experts,
The problem that I have is that the buttons like Display, Edit, etc are not working on a saved Shopping Cart. What is the best way to debug this problem? How would I find out what methods are being called on the SRM system or if some entries are missing in some table for BUS2121?
We are on SRM 7.0 PPS SPS 5, Portal 7.01 SPS 5.0.
Thanks,
Mani

Hi Mani,
We are also facing a similar issue. Our protocol is HTTP throughout but still the issue persists.
Can you shed some light on any other config that you changed?

Qosmio G40: Toshiba Assist, StartLiveTV,Dolby (others?) not working anymore

After installing Win7 Ultimate including all latest drivers downloaded from the Toshiba website, the following applications do not work anymore:
1) Toshiba Assist
The application (TInTouch.exe) loads but ends up with a blank screen.
2) TV button linked to TV
The StartLiveTV.exe application is loaded, it appears in TaskManager, but closes automatically not doing anything. When running Vista it launched Windows Media Center.
3) Dolby Button linked to Dolby
This should launch C:\Program Files\Dolby\Dolby Control Center\DolbyVistaConfig.exe but the application is gone and i cannot find a replacement on the Toshiba Website. (Latest sounddrivers are installed but Dolby application is missing)
Any thoughts on the 3 topics?

Yep,
1) TVAP
i already removed the TVAP, downloaded it again and installed it again.
2) BIOS
I'm at the latest Bios, v2.20

Satellite L850-1HT - Windows 7 ATI display driver - where to find?

Hello,
I've got a L850-1HT (PSKG8E) , I installed a fresh Win7 64bit, but I can't find any drivers that would work with my laptop version.
In the Toshiba drivers area for win7 iIcan only find drivers suitable for Intel graphics, no AMD drivers.
Can anyone help me here.
Thank you.
Message was edited by: deaconpt

Hi
Take a look into the drivers download area of Satellite L850 PSKDLE series.
There you can find the ATI / AMD display driver and these both series use the same graphic chip therefore this driver should work for PSKG8E series too.

Re: Trying to update ATI display driver on Satellite A305-S6843

ok i have a
A305-s6843 satellite
windows 64bit
and i have the
ati mobility radeon hd 3470
the driver version i have installed is 8.501.0.0
i want to install the newer driver i have found and it version is
8.632.1.2000
so my questions
1. where do i get it from
2. how do i install it since toshiba and the ccc dont play nice with each other

I belive my first question was
1. Where to get the file(driver) from *(*on the Toshiba web page the download section for my specific laptop does not include the most current drivers*)
and my second question was
how to install it ....(_*i wasn't sure if their was a different process than what is normal*_)
and to reply to your question ([~TwoLags]) as to (*_why_*) i need to updated my drivers.
I have already posted the answer to this question just click on the link [http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/10715.page;jsessionid=22B40359C82A8EADEACB766082FE 4AFE#4775|http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/10715.page;jsessionid=22B40359C82A8EADEACB766082FE 4AFE#47753]3 i provided in my previous post (*or this one*) it describes the problem i (*WAS*) having and the (*_solution_*)
So in conclusion........................................ .................................................. ..................
I have solved this problem by finding a more current (*toshiba*) driver for my video card and thus in the end my troubles are over
here is the download link to the (*toshiba*) driver I needed to update a *ATI RADEON MOBILITY HD 3470 VIDEO CARD to the 8.634.1.0 version*
*_[http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/support/downloads/driver_video_amd_TC70052300B.exe|http://8.634.1.0 TOSHIBA VIDEO CARD DRIVER ATI RADEON 3400 SERIES]_*
(_and here is the page i got it from)_ [http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=264&threadid=129208]
it is post (_*#5*_) on the page i belive
[http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=264&threadid=129208]
just right click on the link and click open in a new window
In the end when trying to help someone who posts a clearly stated problem
(+*i want to install the newer driver*+) and (*where do i get it from*)
it is better to post the answer to the problem or not post anything at all like
+*_(Why you are search for other drivers? Is it so important or better? I don’t think so…)_*+
this is not helpful at all
but I want to thank you for answering my second question
(*_how to install it_*)
(remove the old version and restart your notebook. Then start the freeware tool “CCleaner” to clean the registry and restart again. After this*
install the Toshiba display driver)
this tells me that their is no unusual installation processes
I consider this matter closed and the help on this subject to rate a 2 out 10 (1 being the lowest rating and 10 being the highest )

ATI display driver lost with Linux and XP dual boot os

I brought ThinkPad W500 with windows vista. I want to get rid of the hidden boot system reserved partition and downgrade to windows xp and install OpenSuse os. Following some sourses found on the web, I first set the bios sata ahci mode to compatable mode. Then install windows xp and update the sata driver. Restart and reset the bios sata back to ahci mode. It works fine with windows xp and I install back all driver. Finally I install OpenSuse and create dual boot with Grub.
But a serious problem come up with me. Everytime after restart from the linux os and back to windows xp, xp doesn't regonize the ATI display divice and tell me no driver installed with low screen resolution. And I have to restart the machine and boot direct into xp for the second time and the problem gone. But it is so annoying of doing this everytime. Anyone can help? Many thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi stanleyimko,
I don't have an answer, just a couple of questions:
Does your W500 have switchable graphics? If so, you may have to turn off "let the OS detect" or permanently select one or the other in BIOS. XP isn't switchable aware, so I don't know why that would make a difference.
Do you see the problem on cold (re) boot to XP, or only on warm reboot from Linux to XP?
Seems like something is leaving your BIOS in an odd state (I guess that's obvious) and maybe a cold reboot would sort it.
