    Sounds like the games needs newer GPU drivers. I would try updating them first. Either with ones from ATI (If they work) or The Omega Drivers for ATI cards.

    You may also want to goto the Toshiba site and download the latest drivers from there first. If that doesn't work, then try the other methods. The drivers in your system are probably just out-dated. The OS image for your system was created before or at the time of the model release, which was a few months ago, it's possibly a few versions were released after that time.

    According to the link below, your card is supported, so it just looks like you have an older driver.
