Larry Ortiz5 said:According to the Toshiba website, that laptop uses Intel integrated graphics on the processor. That basically means it isn't particularly powerful when it comes to gaming, but you didn't specify what error message you're actually seeing or which specific games you tried installing on the laptop.

For instance, when I try to launch basic games like Solitaire, I get this message:
"Hardware acceleration is disabled or not supported by your graphics card driver, which could slow down game performance. Please check if the latest graphics card driver is installed and if hardware acceleration is enabled." And once I click through that message and enter Solitaire, everything feels incredibly sluggish.

I also installed GTA: San Andreas and FIFA 14... and when I try to start FIFA, this warning pops up and prevents me from even entering the game.
"Warning:
Your computer does not meet The minimum system Requirements to run this software. As a result, you may expirience errors during operation. Your Video Card does not meet the required specifications.(GPU:Shader 3.0)"

I am going to try downloading DirectX 9.0 like saiyadjin suggested, though I feel like I might have already downloaded it back when I was setting up Call of Duty, so we will see how that goes.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for downloading my graphics drivers? I'm running a Toshiba Satellite C50-A-1JT with Windows 7 ultimate, and I've tried installing a few games to pass the time, but they won't launch because of an outdated graphics driver. I already tried running updates through the Device Manager, but nothing new seems to be coming through.

I'm working with Windows 7 here, and unfortunately, I already tried using the official site—that link you sent me didn't work either. I haven't quite figured out a workaround yet, but I did try searching for the most recent version of Windows 7 and started the download, so hopefully everything will be up and running once I finish reinstalling the system.

I picked up a Toshiba Satellite C50-A-1JT laptop and went ahead with a clean install of Windows Ultimate. Everything seemed to go smoothly, and I managed to get the USB support working without any issues after downloading the driver myself, but I've hit a wall with the wireless and LAN support. I can't seem to track down a wireless driver that actually works when I try to install it. Can anyone point me in the right direction or help me out? If anyone has dealt with a similar situation or knows exactly where to find drivers that are 100% guaranteed to work, I'd really appreciate the help.
