    Concerning
    John

    Hello John

    It is not easy to understand the whole situation, especially the part with the virus.
    In my opinion, Windows XP Home edition installation should not be problematic.

    What you need is Windows XP Home SP2 or SP3 and driver SATA edition disc. Without SATA driver disk HARD will be not visible to Windows XP Home edition.

  • Qosmio F20-136: how to install the software update for DVB TV device?

    Hi, I used the update all the drivers for my qosmio f20 136 11/07/06 and received various pilot updated on the list.
    The file called TV-TUNER-QF20-XPMCE-103250526 at startup allows the pilot to TV TUNER directory listing and seems to be once I was the driver under System section and selected update driver and select this directory.

    My question is the another file called DVBTAHYB-QF20-XPMCE-1051340 when I click on the file that I just get a list of files, when I try the My TV driver update and choose this directory it won't find anything, does anyone know how to install that to update the file. The download list says they are two updates of tv pilot.

    Maybe Toshiba could include a text file explaining in detail how to install these files? Can anyone help please. And nobody knows which file to copy to save a permanent channel registration, so I could re install the file in the directory so lost the complete channel list?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Maybe I understood something wrong, but according to the prudence shown on the Toshiba download page, the TV-TUNER-QF20-XPMCE-103250526 driver is designed for the range of models between F20-101 and F20 - 135.
    Are you sure that this disc is designed for your computer model laptop too?

    Have you tried to install the update of dvbtahyb-qf20-xpmce-1051340 when the original pilot of the TV (factory settings) is preinstalled?

  • After you have installed the free updates for Vista Home Premium 64 bit, Windows will not start

    After that I installed the free updates to service pack 1, the system goes through 2 of the 3 steps, while it recharges, then the system does not boot?  To get the computer to work again, I need to run the repairer of Windows, which allows you to restore the system to an earlier point?  Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?

    Do your system restore, then:

    Click Start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

    > then click the one that you don't want > uninstall will appear at the top > uninstall it.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, on the page where you clicked "Installed updates", click on change settings at the top left corner it

    > Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

    When you take a look at pending updates, you can either download/install them one at the time, namely the update causing you problems.

    > or if you do not need an individual > right-click on > UAC prompt > hide it

    See you soon.
