Games won't run above 1024 x 768 on Satellite P100-240

I have a Satellite P100-240 with geforce 7900gs 512mb graphics, running xpmc, games run fine however they will not run above 1024 x 768.
The native resolution is 1400 x 900 but the scaling feature does not seem to work. If i try to run anyhing above 1024 it eithers goes to a default value like 640x480 or the i can only see part of the image (like the rest if off screen) is there anything i can do?
My old P10 used to just scale image to fit the wide screen.

Hi
To be honest I dont think that this is a notebook problem.
As far as I know the screen resolution can be changed in the games setup.
This fact applies to all games which I have played.
But there is no harm to try a graphic driver update.
You could try to use an nVidia driver from the www.laptopvideo2go.com site

  • Can Touch apps run on 1024 X 768?

    I like to know if an Android tablet PC with ICS and a resolution of 1024 X 768 can run the Touch Apps? I have been finding it hard to get information on this. Though the minimum is Android 3.1, I want to know if I have the listed Spec above what are the chances that the Apps will run smothly on the ICS? Is there any specs like processor speed and RAM to be considered? I want to get a tablet with that resolution based on the features it has but not clear if Touch will support the resolution is a problem.
    Please I would appreciate if I get a response on this.
    Thanks

  • Satelite P100-197: Geforce 7600 GO driver update - games won't run

    Hello,
    Is there an update for this graphic card which goes with my Satelite p100 - 197 ? I got many problem with most of games. They won't launch.

    Hi
    I think the all the Toshiba graphic drivers you will find on the driver page.
    But mostly the drivers on the card manufacture are newer.
    The problem is that mostly the drivers from the graphic card manufacture cannot be installed on the notebook.
    In my knowledge the Toshiba drivers are a little bit modified because of the graphic card overheating.
    I have read that sometimes the drivers from the omega site could help to start and play games. But I think you can do it at your own risk.

  • Can Premiere Pro run with 1024 x 768 display?

    I know it says you need a 1280 x 900, but can it run with a smaller screen. I don't really need it for HD editing just regular video.

    It should... I just tried running it on my laptop at that resolution and it worked fine, but it doesn't give you a lot of room to work.

  • I have tried to download bust a marble. the icon shows up but the game won't run.

    I have downloaded "bust a marble" from the apple apps; the icon shows up but the game will not load or play.

    You should try restarting your iPod by holding the lock button until a "slide to power off" bar appears at the top, slide then trun it back on by holding the lock button until the apple logo appears. If this doesn't work then try to download it on iTunes and then sync it to your iPod.
    Hope this helps

    MAC OS 8.6 or later / 128 MB RAM
    MAC OS 10.0.4 or later / 128 MB RAM

    I'd really appreciate any help you all can give

    Contact the developer and find out if it's Leopard compatible.

  • Satellite P100-240 randomly crashes during playing game

    I recently purchased the above laptop and couldn't be happier, bar one exception, whenever i try to play a game (this has happened with every single game i've tried) the machine shuts itself down after random amounts of time, be it 5 minutes or an hour.
    After reading the manual i initially thought it was an over heating problem, however after reducing all the settings to minimum i am still recieving the same problem. I have tried updating both the bios and the graphics card, but the problem still persists, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    You can try to go to event viewer as Start -> Run -> eventvwr.msc /s.
    Check System folder for error & its description. You can find that happens before system going to reboot. Hope this help You to identify problem.

  • Problem running 4.80 Bios update on Satellite P100-473

    Hi,
    i have a satellite P100-473 upgraded with 4Go ram, using ubuntu 10.04 lucid 64 with nvidia driver.
    Problem with temperature oft the GPU rising to high (more than 100 C) using sensors applet to check.
    I guess it's a BIOS and driver problem.
    Under windows 7 x64 i don't have this problem with the last nvidia driver (using speedfan to check temperature)
    I decided to flash the bios with the last version => BD1_BIOS(V4.80)_Update.exe as i have the 4.0 version actually, and while flashing same error than you error -121. dxe update etc ...
    While the .exe extract the content of the flash on your c:\tmp i'm going to try a flash bios with a usb bootable stick and phlash.exe with the BD13C43.WPH.
    The problem is to find the official dos phlash.exe .. phoenix doesnt provide those kind of tools ;(
    I understand the need to simple flash bios under windows .. but i don't understand the missing .iso for flashing at boot when the operating system doesnt match ...
    If you have any clue thanks ;)

    Thanks for the advice, but i already checked fan and temperature issues, and found some workarround playing with acpi stuff and other but nothing solving the issue permanently.
    Some advices on forum are to first of all try a flash bios with the last one available, in most of cases it solved issues.
    As i don't have the initial CDs and/or backup of windows system i would prefer not to re-install the laptop just for a flash bios.

  • Facebook games 'FarmTown' & 'FarmVille' won't run. Flash 10 will not install and displays "incompatibility" with FFox

    The games Farm Town and FarmVille partially load on Facebook. The message to update Flash Player is displayed. I clicked to update Flash player, but it would not install. A message displayed saying Flash 10 is incompatible with FireFox and would not install until FireFox was shut down.

    I have Windows XP.
    In regards to my blank white page, the flash is now working again (Whether I needed to restart again or if it was a site thing).
    And I'm not sure how to go about changing my display resolution with the browser, or know where to find it for that matter. Of course there's the one you can find in the control panel/display for the whole computer in general, but that doesn't do anything except make everything larger (Since I originally had it on the highest: 1024 x 768 pixels) and doesn't change the resize compatability for flash player at all.
    Above is a screen shot of the jigsaw site I use (which is not the worst game resizing issue I've run into.) On the left side of the flash window, there are options to choose during game play, and the last option gets cut in half b/c the window won't resize correctly. And I haven't any idea if there are more options below it or not.
    Below is one of the worst resizing issues I HAVE run into. I don't play farmville anymore since this problem, among it being boring, makes it literally impossible to play the game. I brought up the marketplace option since it's the most drastic. This is all of the flash game window, which would resize anything normally on my other computers, but the images get cut off along the sides with this one. I have tried playing this game on its home site, hoping that facebook was the problem, but it's the same issue there as well.

  • HT4314 how do I turn off a game after playing so the app won't run down my battery?

    How do I turn off a game after playing it so the app won't run down the battery. This has happened 2x and I have had to reset my phone.

    To completely close an app (though a lot of apps don't remain active when you switch into a different app or go to the homescreen) : from the home screen (i.e. not with the app that you want to close 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

  • TS1845 i am running windows xp and have tried at a resolution higher than 1024 x 768 but i tunes is still not displaying all options fully on my pc?

    I am running windows xp and have tried chnaging the resolution to 1024 x 768 or highre and am still finding that not all the options on i tunes are displayed on my pc. I have also tried unistalling and reinstalling the software but to no avail. At present all the left hand tabs are missing and the info and summary tabs are missing which means i cannot sync etc

    You'll probably have more luck getting help if you ask in the iTunes for Windows forum rather than here in the iTunes for Mac forum. If, however, you have iTunes 11, many people haven't yet figured out the new default interface in iTunes 11. To get to the iPad information so you can sync, click the iPad button in the header bar at the upper-right:
    Or go to the View menu and select "Show Sidebar" and the interface will then look substantially like it did in earlier versions. If you don't see the menus, go to the small icon with the arrow at the extreme upper left and select "Show Menu Bar":
    Regards.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).

  • 5800: apps missing / won't run / "key icon" overla...

    A few apps went missing on my 5800, also under Application manager. They're on the SD, and I think all Java. Some apps also started showing a small key icon overlayed at the corner of each app's icon. These apps can't be run.
    A restart didn't help, nor a restart without the card and a live reinsertion. After another restart the key icon overlays disappeared but these apps still won't run. They could only be reinstalled after an uninstall, but those that disappeared are stuck in limbo.
    Besides the above, one app that was preloaded on the card now has an empty icon, and after two restarts its name shows as a 9 digit number (see below). It can't be run.
    All of this on firmware v31. As far as I can tell I didn't do anything to trigger it.
    Are there any non-destructive ways to fix it?
    Is there a way to use Symbian without all these strange problems popping up all the time (with the usual solution seemingly being total reset/format)?

    ur symptoms lead to a diagnosis of corrupt memory card.. Have u installed any of those java programs from free game sites tht, while installin, says ur phone could be harmed? Coz those java games r a bit unstable on nokia5800.. I knw it shouldn't be.. But... It is.. Sometimes there's a read/write error and then they show key icons..
    Whatever to solve this, do this..
    Connect with computer
    When asked choose mass storage mode
    Open my computer
    U'l find ur memory card listed
    Right click, goto properties
    There's an option for check disc for errors
    Select tht and let it scan and fix errors
    After u r done, see if u can uninstall those in limbo.
    If not connect again in mass storage mode
    Go to ur computer settings and as to show hidden files, and also show important windows files
    Open ur memory card
    U'l find a FOUND.000 folder.. Delete it
    It's unusable by symbian os and it takes on space
    Restore ur hidden file settings to normal.
    Hope this helps..
