Game downloaded but gets stuck either at a black screen or the Loading.... screen which is often pixelated. Basic research suggests Drivers need to be updated. Went to Toshiba website - how in the world do I know which drivers to update from the huge list??
What Graphics Chip are trying to update?
It is likely better to get them from that manufacture instead of Laptop maker; as they are typically out of date comparitively.
If you want to try Toshiba's. Type in the search on their site for either you full Model # or Serial #, found on the bottom on a sticker. Then look for the Graphic's one. Serial # I would think limits it to only show GPUs for your machine... but it could also show several I suppose because that series had different things during it's lifespan.
nVidia Drivers :

Intel Drivers :

If those drivers tell you have to use toshiba drivers, we can probably get around it.
There are alternate aftermarket drivers for AMD Radeon and nVIDIA Geforce for laptop companies that block the GPU companies' support at the source by forbidding those companies from supporting the makers' versions of the GPUs.
Currently, the most easily found of these is on OmegaDrivers.Net.
There is no such thing as an Omega Driver for any Intel tinker toy video chips, sorry.
Download and unzip the ZIP version... -Go into Device Manager, (type Device Manager in the windows search bar) -Click Display Adapters and Intel HD Graphics. -Go to the tab labeled "Drivers" -Click "Update Drivers" and "Browse my computer for drivers" -Click "Let me pick from a list of drivers" -Click the Have Disk Button -Navigate to where your extracted drivers are and go into the directory labeled "Graphics" -Select the file named "igdlh.INF"
-----------
The EXE version likely works just fine if you uninstall current intel drivers, restart then install it.

You haven't updated this message thread since your question. It shouldn't be necessary to rely on Toshiba, since ATI Radeon and nVIDIA Geforce driver downloads are automatic on those two GPU makers' driver websites. No other video has official support than those actual, discrete add-on circuit boards.
Given your lack of response, we must presume you solved your problem, and no longer need assistance from the Answer HQ community.
