  • How to get an English manual for Qosmio F20?

    Hello

    I just purchased a Qosmio F20 in Spain, and I'm fighting with Spanish Windows and manual Spanish.
    Is there a manual online or a way to get an English? Stuff like using the DVD burner and get the TV put in place is difficult in a foreign language, you're not too hot.
    Obviously, the issue of Windows isn't something to do with Toshiba, but if he has links to the manual online or something, I would be grateful.

    Hello

    You can download the user manual in different languages on the Toshiba site.
    Please visit this link:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_manuals.jsp

    Toshiba laptops are preinstalled with the image of Toshiba and if you buy the laptop in Spain you will get the OS in the same language.
    The other possibility is to install the OS from the original CD of Microsoft, and then install all the drivers necessary Toshiba.

  • How to activate my MSF program for I could use more than 30 minutes at a time

    I had to uninstall my Microsoft Flight Simulator X and MSF - program of acceleration of my PC and reinstall them.  I did it.  When I installed FSX-Deluxe edition, the program asked me the activation number, I gave and then reinstalled the acceleration program. He asked for all the numbers, but now when I run the program, it suits me after 30 minutes then and asks for the active program.  I tried to use the Enternet and everything, but I can't well any place where I can activate this program.  I even call your hotline, they were of no help at all.  First I did not understand that you are Tech. He talked so fast and has no sense at all.  My question is: How can I activate the program? without going to halfway around the world to do. I never had this problem in the past, why now?

  • Drivers and utilities for Qosmio F20 running Vista

    Hi, I had a Qosmio F20 (PQF20A) computer laptop running Windows Vista

    None of the drivers and original utilities were installed, and none of the function buttons/keys work.

    Some drivers, I was able to install through update (Device Manager) and Toshiba Support

    I looked up support for public services and the only drivers/utils available are for * XP * ONLY

    When I try to install the Modules or controls or any other Vista drivers/utilities it stops and says "TVALZ Driver Installation Failed" and then "driver blocked due to incompatibility, for more information, contact Toshiba... »

    Can't find anything relevant on the Toshiba site. I looked towards the top of Toshiba in various regions for support...

    There the drivers/Utils for Vista?
    Help, please!

    Hello

    Unfortunately, the Toshiba Vista tools or utilities for Qosmio F20 don t it.
    As far as I know the Qosmio F20 series and the G20 have been designed and equipped only with the XP operating system and so Vista drivers were not released.

    You can try to search for some unique drivers on Internet sites s chip maker but features such as the control keys or the FN buttons will not work with Vista :(

  • Satellite M30-604 external usb hdd boot failure

    Hello world

    Hard drive problems seem never to end for me.

    I have a satellite M30-604. Recently my Hitachi HDD crashed. Now, I am trying to boot from an external hard drive via usb, but I can't.

    (a) I use a ViPower 3.5 "(model VP9258T) enclosure external usb 2.0"
    (b) with a Seagate 200 GB hard drive.
    (c) I used the recovery cd to install windows on the seagate
    (d) the bios (v1.4) seems to support the external device to start
    (e) the internal hdd crashed is deleted (it's internal hard drive space is empty)
    (f) the bios sees the drive and recognizes it as a USB

    I think it should work, but when I turn on the computer, after a while, he says: "0201: failure IDE #0"
    and gives me the options to run the program installation or start-up.
    When I choose boot it gives me the window with "boot in safe mode" screen, 'last known good configuration' etc, but nothing of the work options (it restarts and gives the same again).

    Any ideas please?

    Hello

    My research on this subject has led me to believe that it is not possible to boot an operating system of attached USB HDD XP. I read several posts on various usenet groups on this issue, and the consensus of opinion is that it is simply not possible.

    Several suppliers of BIOS claim allow a USB HDD to be suitable for start-up purposes but I still have to attend such a machination succeed with XP.
