• Qosmio F50 - 12 L - screen suddenly flashes!

  Hello

  I have laptop Qosmio F50 - 12L, it was working fine under vista. I received my kit to upgrade to win7 from Toshiba, I did a clean and fresh win7 ultimate 32 bit installation. It worked great for about a month or two. All of a sudden my screen flashes when I'm working or even if inactive (do not use portable powered only - it is not Sun), light is more up and down and so on, its happens around 10 times almost every day.

  I don't know that I have installed the right driver VGA which is nvidia 9600 M gt. I installed the driver appropriate since installing win7. Everything works very although I have this sudden question which is the screen flashes all the time.

  Can you please, or any body has any idea about it? What's wrong? Is it a hardware problem with my laptop? I really need to concern about this?

  I appreciate all the entries on that.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hey moody,.

  Can you also tell us what display driver you have installed exactly? What is this good driver do you mean?

  Before update you the BIOS or something else make sure last Toshiba display driver is installed. You can download it here:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com

  And I don t understand your question about the BIOS. If you have installed the version 2.20 and diagnostic tool reports this version, everything is ok!

• Qosmio F50 - LEDs start blinking when I plug it in the socket

  Recently, when I plug in the mains, the LED on my Qosmio F50 start flashing, as well as the led battery... the only way to prevent this is to plug the laptop before starting...

  Can someone explain what this can be?
  I guess that there may be something wrong with the output power of the adapter?

  Hello

  Do you mean that the LED flashes only if the F50 was executed with the power of the battery and then plugged in the area?

  Hmm generally battery LED starts flashing if the battery power is low and must be charged.
  The power led blinks if the output voltage of the AC adapter is abnormal or laptop power outages.

  The other LEDS shouldn't flashing orange t
  But if it comes to a case, then there must be something wrong with electronic power supply or something like that maybe the technician should check

  Temperature at which I am writing this post is 60 ° C, as always when I do _completly nothing_.

  Can I have your help guys? Thank you.

  Hello

  The Windows XP drivers are not available for the Qosmio F50.
  I found only the drivers for Vista 32-bit and 64-bit OS.

  Your problem could be related to the Win XP drivers that are not certified by Toshiba
  The point is that this drivers don t support an overheating protection as do Toshiba drivers
  So maybe this is the reason why the GPU temperature increases to 60 C.
  But to be honest, the 60 ° C is not too high and each party will create more heat dissipation when running certain games or applications high performance

• Screen not switch on the Qosmio F50 - 10Z

  Hello

  Recently, I received my laptop Toshiba Qosmio F50 - 10Z (yesterday), I am very pleased with. However I seem to have a problem with the screen does not reverse when you start the laptop in sleep or hibernation mode. I tried to change the output screen (Fn + F5) but it makes no difference, and the laptop screen is always off. I need to cut my machine (5 seconds by pressing the button / stop) and restart manually. Then, the screen lights up again.

  It doesn't seem to be drivers updated compared to those I already have / preinstalled.

  I hope someone can help solve my problem.

  Thank you

  The story is really strange for me also
  I'm 100% sure that Toshiba provides new laptops and if you bought a laptop with a few scratches then you should blame your laptop for the same problem dealer

  Maybe the dealer of the laptop used this camera for a show or similar

• Qosmio F50 - light screen problems

  I bought my Qosmio F50 less then one year in Croatia. The first day I turned it on I already have problems.

  When the laptop has been marketing, before the BIOS startup screen, lines and weird models appeared on the screen and computer laptop itself blocked, then restarted.
  This is is spent every 4 - 5 times I turned it on, sometimes during restart also.

  Also when I had a black wallpaper, in the middle of the screen we saw as if the screen was dirty, lines that are on the screen that are not dirt or anything else you can clean.

  Finally, after some time, I sent the laptop to the service and they said that the graphics card had gone wrong. Then they replaced. I also mentioned on the lines of "dirt" that can be seen when a darker background was on the screen. They replaced the graphics card, but they said nothing on the lines of "dirt" on the screen.

  Now, a week, I have problems with the screen. Brightness of the screen is going crazy, for example when I'm on the web, the screen becomes a little darker and brighter and darker and brighter, and it goes like this very quickly. And it does that when I surf the web. Sometimes when I watch a film or do anything.

  Its amazing, the Qosmio gives me so much trouble.

  When I sent my laptop last time to the service provider in Croatia, they were extremely rude and they have not solved all my problems. They also said that the graphics card gone bad because of the improper use of the laptop, due to overheating or so. But this is not correct since the first time after I bought the laptop and turned on the lines before the BIOS screen appears.

  I have returned the laptop the next day, but I did not. Now that I have problems with the brightness of the screen going crazy I'm not sure what to do.

  Any suggestions would be welcome.

  Thank you.

  > Now that I have problems with the brightness of the screen going crazy I'm not sure what to do.

  Well, I think you should contact the technician of the ASP again and should explain your problem and should say that this behavior strange screen still persists and that it has not been resolved in the first attempt.

  One of my friends owns a Qosmio F50 (don t know exactly the model number) and he is very satisfied. It of really a large notebook supporting many different multimedia functions and he didn t notice graphics problems or screen.

  As I said above; get in touch with the ASP to get the verified material.

• On the Qosmio F50 of blue screen problem

  Hello world!

  Suddenly, I have a problem with my Qosmio F50. Frequently, it goes to the blue screen and says there is a problem with the hardware. I am running Vista and I havnt really brand new programs installed recently. I tried to write the code for the last time, it's happened, but has failed to catch the last didgits:

  STOP 0X0600008E 0CC0000005 (0X00000000, 0XA7F5IA9C...)

  Can someone help me please?

  Thank you.

  Hi blackgravy,

  At the present time it is difficult to tell why you get a blue screen it s often associated with drivers or RAM/HDD. First of all, you must follow the instructions posted by Akuma. Check your RAM with Memtest86. It s a freeware for RAM diagnostic tool where you can download an iso image to create a startup disk.

  To test the HARD drive, I can recommend similar Drive Fitness Test procedure such as Memtest86 with iso image and the bootable disc.

• Qosmio F50 - 10Z Bios Update crashed - how a cmos reset?

  I have a Qosmio F50 - 10Z and prompted by toshiba I downloaded the Bios Update and started to install.
  My screen saver came and it crashed.

  Not turn off (even after pressing the power button for 15 seconds).
  The drums and then put back. Computer skills on but the screen is blank and will not boot to the top.

  Tried to take part to Flash the bios by removing battery cmos/rtc (whatever it's called) but cannot find the battery and got to the point where I wasn't ready to dismantle any more (nobody else never disassembled a?)

  Could not find information or diagram or picture where the battery has been on the net... manual really useless laptop)

  Found reviews records of crisis, but I don't know what that means.

  So, how to I reset the bios?

  Please help - you're my only hope.

  > So, now, I find the cmos/rtc battery (if it's rechargeable explains so why does not easily localized) removed, he persevered on in a more accessible place - always reset BIOS

  Removing battery RTC would not help reset you mate sorry to the ROM BIOS module but what you did was completely useless
  It seems that the ROM modules where the BIOS is stored, was not properly flashed or something went wrong during the flash procedure

  In case of bad you the mobo is unfortunate but I think that Flash module ROM once more with a disc of crisis could help solve this case
  But the fact is that flashing the ROM module with a disc of crisis can be done by a technician of Toshiba ASP.
  That's why I recommend contacting the guys in your country and ask for flashing ROM

• Qosmio F50-108 - monitor flicker

  Hello! I have a Qosmio F50-108, and recently, I noticed that the screen flickers.

  It looks like a neon sign that is on out. Fortunately, which happened yet, but I'm really afraid that my monitor can suddenly go blank one day. No matter which option to choose, and whether or not its clogged, it still happens.

  Has anyone ever encountered this problem? Help.

  You have this problem on the internal or external screen?
  If a display is flashing, the screen itself is faulty, the FL tube is the cause of the error

  I think your laptop is relatively new, so I would go to an ASP. They can check your laptop, to order parts and change if it of necessary.

  When Windows 7 starts, the icons on the desktop, menu start and records are white then start then normal fill when seen once again, any reason why?

  I used Windows 7 drivers.

  Thank you

  Hey mate,

  I have too many Qosmio F50 and you can change the option if, after hibernate or stand-by the account should be locked or not. As far as I know that this can be changed in power management.

  About this window of Event Viewer, I never heard talk about this and my Qosmio F50 works fairly well with Windows 7. You have installed all the drivers for it? You have yellow exclamation marks in Device Manager?

  I also used Windows 7 drivers, but did you download from the Toshiba page? These drivers are pre-tested and normally should work pretty well.
