I'm on Toshiba satellite 1410-303

15V adapter

geforce4 420 Go (16Mb)

tested driver v44.68 with his modded .inf

Nothing works. The screen has black bars on the right, and set up automatically at 800x600 but not centered and is the higher resolution you can get. A part of the screen is cutted off. (i can't see the windows bar on the bottom).

:P

Hope to find something working soon :)

keep up the good work anyway :)

Right about time I updated this:

Toshiba (15v) assembled machines :

1410-s303 Doesn't work

1415-s105 Doesn't work with 5x.xx

1415-s173 Doesn't work with 5x.xx

2410-s303 Doesn't work

2415-s205 with problems.

5100-201 works with 45.62 no go with 5x.xx

5205-s703/4 with NO problems (dontknow's machine).

5205-s705 with NO problems.

6100- Doesn't work

Compal (19v) assembled machines :

1950-s801 with NO problems

2430-s??? with NO problems

2435-s255 with NO problems

A pattern is starting to emerge, Toshiba laptops (15v Power adaptor) just don't like 5x.xx drivers at all (except the 5205).

Compal made laptops seem to work alot better with 5x.xx (no black bars)

Worst thing is there is still no cure insight yet.

Pieter.

Pieter,

thanks a lot for summarizing.

I have to correct and some of my previous statements and add some new info.

I tried 56.56 and 56.57, no way as expected (black bar).

46.34 and 46.90 have the black bar issue, so does 45.84. Using the latter , resolution is not kept after a reboot. 46.90 only allows 800x600.

47.12 works! But Dualview cannot be enabled (well, I could not find a way to enable it.) The usual check box at the bottom of the the panel is missing.

One word about 44.68. It works (including Dualview), but the secondary screen flickers visibly when the Nvidia Media Center in the tray is clicked, or when I richt click on the desktop. Since I use my laptop for presentations, I had to unistall it and install 45.33 with teraphy's inf for 45.24.

To be entirely sure, I updated the system with Intel's 5.1.1.1002 and I tried again with some more time various drivers + infs from Pieter's site. I got the same results, so I'd expect the other drivers I mentioned in my last post that did not work, would not work either now. (Unfortunately I cannot try them again now.)

46.34 + 20.16 inf:

Black Bar (BB) Issue, max res 800x600

46.90 + 20.16 inf:

BB issue, max res 800x600.

With this and the following driver I experimented a little bit further.

When I enabled DualView (DV) and rebooted, screen went to light intensity 2 and could not go higher with Fn+F7; moreover there was *no* DV (secondary monitor off). In Display Manager, nView Display Mode is greyed out, however in nVidia Media Center nView Display Mode is active.

56.56 + 20.17:

BB issue (size 979x768), when I enabled DV it did not work. Clone, Horizonta/Verical Extension worked. Secondary screen at 979x768 as well as expected.

Toshiba 5100-201 and 56.82 - finally it works !!!!!

Many thanks Pieter for the latest modded inf.

I also had the white screen issue before logon with my 5100-201 and all 5x.xx drivers I tried in the past months. The new driver looks fine so far :-)

Havent tried the TV-out yet (some older 4x.xx drivers made it stop working) but for a first quick test 3dmark 2001 runs fine (4804 points with default quality settings and w/o any tweaking)

Will report back if any issue occurs.

Cheers,

Thomas

:) :) :P VERY NICE.

Now we have to think ALOT about what to do next with all those infs. Seems that only the OEM infs (56.82 is TOSHiBA) work s o m e h o w

I tried the new 56.82 driver with the newest modded inf (20.19) on my Toshiba satelite 2410-303 (geforce 4 go 420 32mb) and windows couldn't start. The system suddenly hang while XP was loading (XP boot-screen). I tried the inf-file from the 44.68 driver and then XP could startup, but the black bar was there!

what can I do to make the 56.82 driver work?

Hi i Have a Satellite 5105-s501 laptop

I need the latest drivers for the Geforce4 440 go card

I tried installing the drivers from the nvidia website but then i look at the driver info and it just goes back to the first driver. The toshiba drivers on their website are too old. What do i need to download. Will the toshiba 5700 drivers work?

Hey all,

Just wanted to drop in and say, thanks for keeping this site going, great work, and truely a useful resource.

Toshiba Laptop: 1955

Sub Model: S805

Power Supply: Not entirely sure, I now use a targus 120W power supply, if I recall my original one was 19v

Never had a black bar issue (not sure if I've been lucky or what), had an issue with battery power for a bit, but I carefully uninstalled all the video drivers, installed the latest (56.82 is it) with the modified INF (20.19?) and it all seems to work very smoothly :)

I have a Satellite 5205-S705 with Win XP MCE and I tried the 56.82: NO bands at all and loads of new features (and better performance!)

Cheers guys, you're doing a *great* job!

There is some information from TS available regarding the use of AC adapters:

Important Information: For Computer's Equipped with a 19-volt (DC19V) AC Adapter

Please note that your computer is equipped with a 19-volt (DC19V) AC Adapter.

Use only the AC Adapter supplied with your computer or an equivalent adapter that is compatible. Other types of AC Adapters may have a different voltage which could cause computer failure and/or possible data loss. For example, if you use a higher voltage AC Adapter (DC19V) on a lower voltage computer (DC15V) that is operating on battery power, the computer will automatically shut-down and you may lose data. In order to restart your computer, you must remove the incorrect Adapter, and then remove the battery from your computer to reset the internal power supply controller.

Or, if you use a lower voltage AC Adapter (DC15V) on a higher voltage computer (DC19V) that is operating on battery power, the computer will not recognize the lower voltage Adapter and will continue to operate on battery power. Since the battery will not charge, the computer will eventually shut down as the battery becomes low or fully discharged.

Toshiba assumes no liability for any computer failure and/or data loss caused by use of an incompatible adapter.

interesting, right :) :)

Hello to you all, and thanks for giving me some hope that I may be able to get a driver to work with my laptop :) I had previously searched the internet for such a site with little success until a chance post on the Guru3D board redirected me here.

I have a Toshiba 2140 - 504. GeForce 420 Go 32MB graphics, 15v power supply.

So far I have tried 52.16 with the 9.6 INF file but still get the black bar.

I'll update this post as I try other files.

*EDIT* Tried the 11.64 and 11.65 ini with the 52.16, both still had black border. I then tried the 9.6, 11.64 and 11.65 with 45.85 drivers and got the black border again every time. I then updated windows using Windows Updater and now run the Toshiba 45.91 drivers.

Richard.

*EDIT* Tried the 11.64 and 11.65 ini with the 52.16,

There is a typo in most of the 1x.xx inf as ministeve found out.

You have to add a commata at the SoftEDIDs settings and eventually add a "s" at the end of SoftEDID in your section.

HI.

I've got a Toshiba Satellite 2410-514 (15V voltage output) equipped with a GeForce 4 420 Go (32mb)

I tried various drivers versions : 44.03, 47.12, 53.03, 54.01, 56.72, 56.82, 57.03, all with corresponding Pieters's INF files.

Zith all of them I have the same issue : the black bar on the right of the screen. In fact, when I look in the Nvidia pages in the display properties, it indicates I have a 976x768 screen...it should be detected as a 1024x768 screen (15" display) !!

Hope it will help...

I've tried every 5x.xx driver on the site an non-work with my 1415-173... The only time a 5x based driver worked was the orginal leak right before it was made public and that just crashed to much to be useful...

Specs on my sig.. 15v output power supply.

Currently having no problems with any driver at the moment.. no black bars. Although, I do have a problem with resume from standby issue with the 55-60 series drivers... all the drivers up to the 53 series worked fine for me.

Running 60.72 right now.

Edit:

Running NVIDIA BIOS 4.17.00.59.F9

I own a Toshiba 5105-S501 using the 56.72 drivers.

The problem is that my screen is a 1400 x 1050 and the driver only lets me set up to 1372 x 1050, whcih results in a "black bar" on the right.

Is this just a simple issue in the nv4_disp.inf ?
