Installation of Qosmio G35 - V660 Vista - drivers needed!

I bought the full Windows Vista Edition upgrade. I installed the new update of the BIOS (now at version 1.7), I ran the CreateVistaCDMaker file on the Toshiba site and I downloaded and burned to CD updated for the Toshiba RAID drivers.

However, whenever I get to the part of the installation were it asks me to select the drivers to install on... He told me that this is impossible because I need the appropriate drive. I point to the Toshiba Raid driver and after 5-10 minutes of waiting, Vista tells me that the drive is that I slowed down of Toshiba (Toshiba raid disk) is not compatible.

Anyone else having the same problems of Vista upgrade on their laptop Toshiba Qosmio G35-660?

Hello

I assume that you have downloaded the driver RIAD on the Toshiba driver site us.
I checked this site and surprise. There is only a RAID for WinXP driver.
It seems that the RAID for XP driver does not work with the Vista installation.

You will find on the site of Toshiba Canada also a few disks of Vista and also a RAID for Vista driver. Of course, you won't find you laptop model G35 because it was designed specifically for the American market, but try using a driver for G30.

  • 32-bit Windows7 64 bit Vista drivers needed

    Hi all

    I'm looking to confirm drivers that need to be used when upgrading a custom install of Vista 32 bit to Windows 7 64 bit

    My system is a Pavilion a6109n is a 64-bit system

    I use vista 64-bit drivers that are the only drivers 64-bit available?

    Again something I do not have the HP disk I bought directly at retail.

    Hi MsRoboto,

    Your Vista drivers will probably not work. Some of them might, but probably not worth the hassle of trial and error. Since you use complete installation of operating system Microsoft, you would probably be to wipe out all of your existing software and data, particularly since you're going OS 32-bit to 64-bit. Then save info all important first.

    Here are the links for Win 7 drivers, you will probably need:

    Chipset

    Audio (accept any agreement from Realtek, click Next and then download Win 7 version).

    You will also need to find applications such as a DVD player and disc burning utilities. After you upgrade if something does not work well, tell us in the forums and we can help find other drivers or software that you need.

    For reference, here's your specifications.

  • Tecra S5-10 x - 64-bit Vista drivers need

    I bought this product not last week, with the operating system "Windows vista business edition" and once I opened the package, I was surprised to see that the operating system is only for 32-bit processors.

    and since I know that the core2duo processors are 64-bit, I contacted the seller who said that this product is only 32-bit, and the evidence is the copy of windows that comes with it.

    Well well... even if the support does not include windows 64-bit for my 64-bit processor, I need the drivers for my laptop to install any version of windows, so I tried the restore CD that did not contain the information of any driver, but an entire image for windows Vista.

    I mean: I won't always use windows Vista!
    I need to windows XP and windows server for my studies because IT at the University of Damascus.

    Then I went to the Web from Toshiba site, has started to download the drivers for windows XP, that did not really work in 64 - bit Windows XP.

    I need the drivers for windows XP and windows server and linux OS.

    Please help me!

    > I bought this product not last week, with the operating system "Windows vista business edition" and once I opened the package, I was surprised to see that the operating system is only for 32-bit processors.

    Why surprised? Toshiba has never pronounced for laptop with 64-bit OS; With Win XP 64-bit or Vista 64-bit.
    Of course, the CPU might be able to handle the 64 bit OS, BUT he also manages the Windows 32-bit operating system!

    With regard to the issue of driver 64-bit;
    As already said, the Vista 64-bit version is not exist on Toshiba laptops and so 64-bit drivers are not available.

    All that s

    As you know, Toshiba does not support and does not own notebooks with the 65-bit operating system. Or with Vista with XP.

  • Qosmio G35-AV650 does not start after format

    Okay, so I downgraded/upgraded my computer back to XP from 7 a month ago.
    Yesterday, I went to the library for all my updates and whatnot that I neglected since the upgrade. When I turned on the computer in the library, it would not be loaded the office correctly and an error box open stating that it was impossible to recover the THotkey. It turns out that my feature key drivers took a dive. I've done everything I can to solve the problem. Nothing worked, I decided to reformat.

    Early upward the dinosaur this afternoon when the format is finally finished, it would not fully boot screen where you are asked which language you want to use, what time format, all of these bases. I tried to reboot several times, finally tried safe mode, even to reformat again, nothing works.

    Now, seeing as I was only reformat to XP in order to enter my card default sound drivers to see if they would work on 7 (the company that made my card was bought shortly before 7 was released and that they still need to make new drivers), I decided to say screw that it and any format the computer back to 7. When it loads everything from disk (disk? drive?), it goes to the screen asking what disk I want to install, it says that I have no disks on which I can install it.

    I came across this problem before, the first time that I put 7 on the computer. Since I have two hard drives, it needs the RAID drivers that connect the two. I downloaded several different, all for Toshiba Qosmio G35-AV650 RAID drivers, but it detects all the drivers. The way I do it is to put on a flash drive and tell the computer to get them from there. I do everything the same way I did before, but nothing works at all. I tried to go into the BIOS settings, but I have no idea what I could do.

    I'm tearing my hair out trying to figure out what I can do here, but I'm completely lost. Any ideas?

    You use a generic Windows 7 disk? Or a Toshiba Win7 upgrade disk?

    Basically, you need the drivers SATA F6 (INFs) on a USB Flash drive during the installation of Win7. The version of Vista should work fine in Win7.

    You can change the RAID settings in the BIOS to "JBOD". First, make sure you back up important data.

    Hello
    I'm new to this forum. My name is Francisco and I live in the Brazil. I have a Toshiba Qosmio g20_105 and it is running Windows Vista Ultimate EN RTM 6000 without problems.
    To do this, you must perform a clean installation of Windows Vista. The drivers for network (Intel PRO100), audio (Soundmax), TV (Toshiba PCI Tuner), modem (modem of toshiba), Alps pointing device are installed directly from microsoft. You must install the Toshiba, Toshiba Bluetooth nvidia display driver (monitor and stack), driver Toshiba flash media, toshiba RAID texas (drivers and utilities), toshiba remote control manager and ConfigFree for Windows Vista.
    You must have the Toshiba RAID drivers to install from the windows Vista DVD. Otherway, Windows does not recognize Toshiba RAID 0 and RAID 1.

    Below some pictures of my desktop of the G20 screen:

    11. navigate to the location you copied the RAID drivers then press 'OK '.

    I have a G35-AV600 one I am trying to install windows vista.
    I followed all the instructions for the driver raid and all with pure install.

    I know that some people had the same problem since they were posted here but no solutions have been posted.
    Please if you have an idea how to solve this problem, help me, I'm desperate.

    Added support for the digital tuner US OpenCable Unidirectional OCUR (Receiver). (Shut UP-PQG33U only).
    Additional requirements for Intel to improve stability when using the Intel Core 2 Duo as a single Core processor.

    Fixed: Ensure a remote to work Express Media Player.
    Fixed: Exclamation mark (!) appears when starting a model of TV tuner, while the RF switch matrix is turned OFF.

    It is the first version of BIOS for PQG33U models.
    This BIOS supports Windows Vista and XP.

    Thanks & best regards,

    Hello

    Everything you need you can find on the download page of Toshiba under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads > Support home page.

    Only problem I can see there is TV tuner because it is a country and I am afraid it is not possible to use it in Europe (another standard TV). I'm also not sure how the WLAN card works because a user has reported that it has problems to the United Kingdom with American machine.

    I know that the units are less expensive in the United States but as Qosmio unit should be used with all the material and all the options. The Qosmio G30 series is great but it will be perhaps better to buy F30 in Germany and your sister will have no problems.

    Please do not include it as something negative, but that's just my opinion.

    Happy new year!!!

    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 :(
