1274492 2012-05-10 09:57:00 I've just installed Win 7 to my toshiba laptop (Tecra P5). Under display adapter, my graphic card doesn't seem to be recognised and I only get a Standard vga graphics adapter.I have tried to update driver but with no luck.I can't even get my computer to see the card. Any suggestions what to try.
Thanks Pete

1274493 2012-05-10 10:06:00 Go to the toshiba site find the right drivers, install them. Was Win7 on it before / did you restore it? Or did you install Win7 from a separate DVD? Speedy Gonzales (78)

1274496 2012-05-10 10:21:00 Yup, you'll have to go to the Toshiba site, and search for the model. Then install the drivers. If there are chipset drivers install these first. Win7, will usually install a standard video driver, until you install the driver/s from the site Speedy Gonzales (78)

Thanks for suggestions.Did this but when laptop starts, I get a green tinge to screen and windows won't start until I use safe mode. Any suggestions? cheers Pete
