Want to install another graphical card on my Satellite A20

Hi there,
I want to install another graphical card on my SA20 - S103.
At the moment it is the standard Trident card that is running.
Is it possible to install a gforce or radeon chip?
If yes, which one would be the best?

Hi Stefan,
Sadly I don't think it will be possible to replace your Trident graphics card with another because it is an integrated design which is using shared RAM. In effect your graphics card has been specifically designed to fit in your notebook and finding a similarly designed card from another manufacturer would be virtually impossible.
Unlike desktop or tower PCs where the graphics card is a separate device which can just be unplugged and replaced, the graphics chip in your notebook is usually integrated into the design in order to save space.
regards,

  • I want to upgrade my graphics card.

    I have issues with playing the newest games. I must use the lowest graphics settings. I want to upgrade my graphics card. I have a AMD 5450 PCI 2.0  now in a HPE-560z machine. I want to be able to play games on ultra settings if I can. What card do I buy that will run on my computer. I'm looking for more power, better graphics more memory and so on. But I have no idea what to buy that will just plug and play on what I got now. 

    Here is what "reading between the lines" sounds like is happening, but it is always better to spell things out...
    1st gen?
    ATI?
    GT120?
    Then can I surmise that you have the ATI X1900?
    Have you been checking for dust and cleaning it regularly?
    I don't know about Softimage, and ATI vs Nvidia drivers.
    If you look you will see that the GT120 is not supported. There is still the Nvidia 8800GT (there is one model for yours, and another for the 2008/2009 Mac Pro).
    Your most powerful card, if you look at the benchmark tests at Barefeats and OWC/MacSales is the ATI Radeon 4870.

  • No Signal after installing new graphics card

    Hello and thanks in advance for your help!  
    We have a 2yr old HP p6540y.  It has an ATI integrated Video Card. When we recently turned it on, we got a 'no signal' message on the monitor and then it would go to sleep.  We have tried several things to fix...listed below, in order, and are still getting the same message.  Please advise!
    1) No Signal: DVI, VGA, HDMI.  So we unplugged and restarted, no change.
    2) Checked monitor and DVI & VGA cords with another computer: They all work.
    3) Installed new Graphics Card: NVIDIA GEForce GT 610.  Still got same 'no signal' message. 
    4) We plugged/unplugged all other cards/cords/anything we could and cleaned out.  Then, finally, the monitor turned on! But not for long....
    5) After restarting computer after installation of graphics card driver, we got the 'no signal' message again.  We once again, pulled out other cards/plugs and again the monitor/computer came to life.
    6) We unistalled the integrated ATI graphic card.  When we go to Display, Advanced Options, it lists our new NVIDIA as graphic/display card.
    7) We turned computer off overnight and this morning when we turned on, we once agin got the 'no signal' message.  We unplugged/plugged computer in several times.  Also tried the trick with pulling out cards/plugs and we got nothing.  No Signal.  After doing this several times (about 10), it finally worked again.  
    8) We changed sleep settings to: Screensaver=Never; Sleep Mode=Never.  
    9)  We restarted again to once again get no signal message.
    So...what do we need to do?
    Thanks so much!

    Triusa, welcome to the forum.
    I suspect that your problem is caused by the power supply unit (PSU).  Here is a guide to help you troubleshoot the problem:

    Also, the existing PSU is 250W.  The GT 610 requires a minimum of 300W.

    Hi,
    No, you can't upgrade the graphics chip as it's a shared Intel graphics. You couldn't also upgrade a dedicated graphics like nVidia or ATI ones as it is soldered to the motherboard. The only way how to upgrade a graphics chip on a laptop like this is to replace the motherboard by a compatible one with a more powerful chip on it.

  • Can I install a graphics card on Satellite M70?

    I have got a Toshiba Satellite M70-394 (psm70e). I have seen that I have a pcie slot in my system through a hardware identifier program. Is it possible that I can install a graphics card through the back if I unscrew the back or get a professional to do it?

    Hi!
    > an express card slot.
    Do you know what an express card slot is?
    I think you are mixing something
    The express card slot is designed for express cards. Its similar to PCMCIA cards.
    You will not find a graphic card that is designed for the express card slot. For these slot you can buy USB extension cards for example.
    Check your user manual!!!
    There you will find more details about this slot.

  • Satellite L350-159 - Can I install a graphics card?

    Hello everyone, I got a friend to check what graphics card I had the other day, as I play games and noticed that the graphics weren't fantastic. He checked it out and then told me I actually haven't got a proper graphics card!
    I'd love to remedy this, but is there any way to get into the laptop to install a graphics card? and if so, what kind of graphics card would you recommend? some are rather big, and i'm not sure they could fit. I noticed some panels on the bottom of my laptop that can be screwed off - do one of those lead to a place to put a graphics card?
    Thank for the help,
    Michael

    Hello
    The graphic card cant be exchanged because its soldered on the mainboard. So thats not possible to exchange it.
    If you dont believe it, read this interesting Toshiba document:
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm
    As Akuma said the point is that the Satellite L series is not designed for gaming. I have a Satellite L300 and a Qosmio X300. The Satellite L is really great for my work, picture editing, E-Mails and office. The X300 is really perfect for games Its fast enough for all games I have.

    hi joejee,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
        I'm afraid that this is not  possible, The system's Mainboard is much of a Laptop design where Upgrade is very limited.

    The iPhone is most likely locked to the network of the company you purchased the iPhone for. You'll need to contact the mobile provider to unlock it. They are the only one's who can unlock it.

  • I want to upgrade my graphics card, what's the restrictions?

    Hello. My MacBook description is 13" Late 2011. I want to upgrade the graphics card. It's currently Intel HD 3000. I want to play games like Guild Wars and Sims City once my finals are over. So probably nVidia something?
    However, is there a restriction? Can the MacBook support it?
    Also what is the price we're talking about. I called a repair centre a few minutes ago, and they said 1300 SGD! A little obscene! Is it really that price range?

    only practical way for you:

  • Can I install a graphics card on a Touchsmart 610-1050f computer with intel HD graphics

    Can I install a graphics card on a Touchsmart 610-1050f computer with intel HD graphics and if i can where
    can i find a graphics card that will install in that computer.

    There are many MANY threads on this, the answer is that it's not worth your time since you have to have a replacement card that the HP system BIOS already likes,, and this is not the same as replacing anything in a desktop, this is the equivalent of replacing the graphics in a laptop.
    Since the graphics cards are not considered a user upgradable component there are no lists of "approved cards" nor guides to doing it, the closest you could do is the service or recycling disassembly sheets.

  • Installing a graphics card

    i am installing a graphics card in an HP7800. a simple question, how do you remove the metal dust cover? it used to be simple just remove the screw but there are no scews i can see, just metal tabs. do i just bash it out? there must be a better way than that.

    Hello caribx-----,
    I am providing you with the HP Support document: Upgrading and Servicing the PC Guide. If you reference the section titled "Installing Add-In Cards" you will see the steps to removing the dust cover as you are inquiring about. Step 7 Pull the add-in card bracket up and out. and Step 8 If  you’re adding a new card to a previously unused slot, remove the expansion slot cover.
    There are diagrams as well to show you what you should be looking for.
    I hope this answers the question you are asking. Thank you for posting this on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
