Nvidia 7900 Go GS stuttering in Windows Vista

FIX: Problem FIXED. After 10 months Toshiba finally released a working BIOS. It's similar to 4.10 but has 64-bit compatibility aswell. Get it here, version 4.20.

4.10 (BETA) BIOS if anyone still needs it.

Warning: Your fans may not work after updating your BIOS (BETA or OFFICIAL). Reinstall your drivers after the BIOS update to get them to work again! I am not responsible if something goes wrong.

Basically an example on how my nvidia 7900gs go wont stop stuttering making any game or video application impossible to play/watch. I'm using Halo 2 for PC to show this problem. This is problem pertains to laptops with Nvidia hardware + Windows Vista + Toshiba (and maybe other OEMs).

Laptop: Toshiba P105-S9337
OS: Windows Vista Home Premium
Video card: Nvidia Geforce Go 7900 GS

I still get this... Running vista 32 home premium, it got sorted for me as well for a while but after bios 4.60 it got real bad again... I tired win 7 32/64 but same crap there... it stutters regularly every third second. Anyone know where I can download old toshiba bios from?

@27sevenSToFo The old Toshiba BIOSes are still hosted on their website. Go to support.toshiba.com and enter your laptop model. When you find BIOS 4.70 (the latest), there should a a [+] box besides it. Click it and it should show all the previously released BIOSes. I'd recommend to downgrade to v4.50

force vsync on

lol

solved the prob with me xD

Forcing VSync wouldnt do anything. BIOS 4.00 to 4.50 fix the issue so no VSync forcing is needed.

is nvidia geforce 7900 gs a graphics card if yes what graphics card did u have before u installed nvidia geforce 7900 gs plz respond back to me

[jessi3k3]

Yea, I have an Nvidia Geforce GO 7900 gs graphics card. I did not have a previous graphics card since this is a laptop. You cant replace graphics cards on laptops.

@jessi3k3 Thanks I found 4.50 on another website and it sorted the problem. Not even the very latest 4.80 fixes the stuttering problem... What was toshiba thinking?

[mangoleeallan]

thx for the info ill sub

So I'm guessing it won't work with my Dell desktop.

It's for P105/P100 toshiba satellite models with discrete graphics. The file is the BIOS installer for windows but it also has a .iso file so you can burn it and boot it up and install it without windows.
