Satellite L500-19E: Can I use AMD Radeon Catalyst 13.1 driver?

On AMD Website stand's this Information about AMD Catalyst software suite 13.1:
The following notebooks are not compatible with this release:
Toshiba notebooks (please contact the notebook OEM for driver support for these notebooks)
Can nevertheless use the Version?
When does the Toshiba update come?
Thanks for any answer!
Chris

GPU manufacturers dont support notebooks with display drivers. Notebook manufacturers offered directly support. Directly support on mobile machines is offering adapted, optimized and tested drivers.
Due to specific design and limited cooling system possibilities display drivers are adapted and dont force GPU to run on maximum performance.
As Tony already wrote you can try to use it but on your own risk. Different notebook models have the same card and often newer models have newer display driver. I strongly recommend you usage of Toshiba drivers only.

  • Satellite L500-19X - Can't use the recovery disk

    Well I got this laptop two days ago and used it once after installing fire fox and my mobile broadband drvier's and going back home to boot up and find it was going to happen,
    I had tried safe mode (all three) and repair and all I got was a black screen with the cursor up where there should have been a language screen (I used the recovery disk that came along with the laptop) so anyway after finding out I wasnt going to be able to repair it I tried to install but of course that didn't work either so I put my XP 64 bit OS on and worked perfectly fine, then I upgraded (using my own upgrade windows 7) and that works fine no problems, so I tried again with the original windows 7 that came pre-installed on the laptop's hard drive and all went find untill it starts installing driver's or updates (I'm not 100% sure on this but it is at and/or after the face recognition installation,
    Then it shuts it's self down and boots back up to automatically restart and asking me if I want to repair due to a bad start-up so I do the repair boots back up and still says I need to repair and finds nothing wrong and carrys on in that circle.
    Now I have been told that it could be the register or it is a graphics problem, I myself am getting pretty fed up of having to install/reinstall/format this laptop.
    So if there is anyone who know's what is wrong or what to do or even if it needs to be sent back to be fixed that will be very helpful.
    I thank anyone in advance.
    Happy new year :)

    Hi
    Well, I think its really hard to say what the reason is. Maybe the recovery disk is scratchy or the files corrupt there.
    At the moment I cant imagine that its a hardware problem because other Windows disk working properly.
    In your case I would try to install Windows 7 from a Microsoft disk and then see what happens. If it works properly and you can install all drivers & tools you should order a new recovery disk from Toshiba directly.
    Bye

    Hi @Leys 
    I see you are stilll unsuccessful installing the drivers as you get the blue screen.
    Here is a link to Computer Does not Start (Windows 7, Vista, XP) that may help.
    Here is a link to Testing for Hardware Failures (Windows 7, Vista) to determine if your graphic card is defective.
    If the graphic card fails, here is a link to the HP Pavilion g7 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide. Please note page 9 or chapter 1 page 9 for a list of recommended replacement graphic cards.
    If the graphic card passes you may wish to consider doing a restore back to a known good time or a full recovery back to factory.
    Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
    Performing an HP system recovery (Windows 7)
    During the recovery process there is an option to backup your personal files to prevent data loss.  If you have not done one yet I suggest you do one now.

    Can I use a non apple wireless hard drive with time Machine?

    Some NAS (network storage) systems do claim to support Time Machine, with varying levels of success. For example, the Synology units have this feature. They're not officially supported by Apple, though.

    As of June 2010 I no longer maintain this FAQ. I’ve migrated to Lightroom 3, which I use for all my organizing and most of my editing (I still use the Photoshop Elements Editor for more involved editing).  Adobe has clearly decided not to invest sufficient resources for properly maintaining the Photoshop Elements Organizer– see my Amazon review of PSE 8. Lightroom is marketed to professionals and prosumers with tens of thousands of photos who demand adequate organizational capabilities, whereas Photoshop Elements is marketed to consumers, most of whom do not want or use the Organizer.
    This page captures my answers to frequent questions about Photoshop Elements 6, 7, and 8 (Windows).  It’s mostly about the Organizer, since I know the Organizer much better than the Editor.
    The versions to which each FAQ applies are indicated with the notation [PSE 6, 7, 8]. If I’m not sure whether something applies to a version, it will be indicated with a question mark, e.g. [PSE 7, 8?].

  • I have an 2tb time capsule 802.11n Wi-Fi base station can I use this as an external hard drive and use a new airport extreme  802.11ac Wi-Fi for my wifi?

    I have an 2tb time capsule 802.11n Wi-Fi base station can I use this as an external hard drive and use a new airport extreme  802.11ac Wi-Fi for my wifi?

    You can use the 2 TB Time Capsule as a network drive. That means that it must connect to one of the Ethernet LAN <--> ports on the new AirPort Extreme, or connect to the network using wireless.

  • Can i use applications from an external hard drive?

    Can i use applications from an external hard drive?

    Photoshop itself needs to reside inside of it's Applications folder so that it has access to it's Libraries and plugins. So if you are going to attempt to store and run it from an external drive you need to copy the whole Application folder or install it directly to the external drive. Even still I am not 100% positive it will work as I know it still needs to access your Library/Application Support for additional files and licensing.
    Why do you want to run Photoshop from an external drive?

  • Can you use time capsule as a hard drive

    Can i use timecapsule as a external hard drive to store pictures and access them but not as a back up

    Yes it can be mounted as an external HDD in finder and you can drag and drop on and off.

  • Can i use time capsule as another hard drive?

    Can I use time capsule as another hard drive?

    You can, but it was not really designed for that purpose. Access to files will be quite a bit slower than a drive that is directly attached to your computer.
    The Time Capsule's main function is as a back up device using the Time Machine application.
    If you are using it already for Time Machine, it is generally not a good idea to mix Time Machine backups and regular files on the same drive as there will be struggle for space when the drive starts to fill up.

  • The hard drive in my iMac is on its way out. I have an EHD (2TB), can i use this as my main (only) drive?

    The hard drive in my iMac is on its way out. I have an EHD (2TB), can i use this as my main (only) drive? ie unmount the 'C' drive and use the external hard drive as 'Macintosh HD'?

    If the EHD was, originally, formatted as an Mac OS extended (journaled) format with GUID partition scheme, then you can designate this drive as the startup drive in OS X preferences panel.

  • Can i use time capsule for external h drive and also for time machine?

    Can i use time capsule for external h drive and also for time machine?

    Hello, vascocaco.
    If I understand correctly, you're wondering if you can use your Time Capsule's internal hard disk both for Time Machine backups and as an ordinary drive. Is this your question?
    You can, but Time Machine backups may take longer.
    To do it, you should partition your Time Capsule's hard disk to create one volume for the backups and one for other files.

  • Satellite L500-19E - Microphone stops working after few words

    Hi,
    About 2 weeks I have a new L500-19E with Windows 7 and it worked fine. But since a few days I have trouble with my microphone, no matter if I use the internal or an external headset/mic. The issue is that it seem to work for a few seconds only, e.g. trying a call via skype, teamspeak etc. but people only hear my hello and a few more words, then they only hear me very quite. The settings all seem to be fine and I already downloaded/installed the newest realtek drivers but nothing helps.
    Does anyone has an idea what the issue can be and how to fix?
    Thanks
    stammann

    Hi
    Really strange, stammann. Have you also tried to update the webcam driver? I ask this because the microphone is a part of the webcam so you should also update this driver. Just check the Toshiba page for an update:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
    Have you also activated Microphone boost? You can check this in Windows sound settings.

  • I can't use my Radeon 8670M ever since I've installed Windows 8.1

    I've tried a lot of things but I can't seem to find a way for my laptop to use the Radeon not the Intel HD Graphics Family. I cann't play my games because of this.... There is a thing about the Catalyst Control Center I can't configure the graphics for specific programs ( pardon my grammar) AMD catalyst control center it says it cant start the program because there is no AMD driver software instaled or there is no AMD card there.

    Hi @
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your AMD Radeon HD 8670M not being used on your HP Pavilion TouchSmart 14-n012ex Ultrabook. Your AMD Radeon HD 8670M is a dedicated card and I do not recommend you making changes to the Notebook to use the other card.
    The Switchable Graphics feature allows you to switch between using the Intel graphics and a dedicated graphics controller like AMD in a computer. For example, you can switch between the enhanced battery life of the Intel graphics while running on laptop battery power and the performance capabilities of the discrete graphics controller while the laptop is plugged into AC power. Your Notebook will automatically switch to the Intel graphics if the computer changes to battery power, or it can switch to the discrete graphics if the computer is plugged into AC power. So if the game is going to use more resources it will use the Intel graphics card.
    You can only change graphical settings for performance, which card it uses depends on the game or software you are running. It is not possible to disable the AMD chip and only use the Intel. This could elevate the temperatures and cause a hardware malfunction.
    Most time things can be resolved if you perform your updates.
    Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system at the time of purchase.
    Thanks.
