• Qosmio G20 156: clean install?

  Hello

  I am new to the arena for laptop and am the proud owner of the Qosmio G20 156 fantastic.

  I was wondering what people recommend doing the first thing when you receive... in what respect the sofware & operating system; Is it a good idea to perform a clean installation of Windows and the format of the HARD drive? I'm asking this is because some laptops come with a lot of junkware? If so, it's a very simple process using the recovery discs or I just would open the Pandora's box of possible complications?

  I'm quite proficient with installing the drivers etc.

  Any advice much appreciated!

  Hello

  Well, it s beautiful that you're proficient with installing the driver, but is not everything you need to know.
  This device uses a RAID technology and you will need to also install the RAID drivers, etc.
  I don t recommend to format anything or install the new OS. Toshiba programs and applications are installed on the new Qosmio because it s a laptop top of range with many features. The latest features need these applications.

  But of course it s your device and you decided what and how is running on your laptop.
  I have this case you can use the image of Toshiba and you can remove some programs from the laptop computer in Add and remove programs

  It is a simpler way.

• Qosmio G20 156 runs slow after system restore

I tried all the usual stuff like the lowering of graphics acceleration but no joy please don't help

  my machine is a qosmio g20 - 156 pqg21e

  Hello

  It is hard to believe that the Qosmio G20 may have some problems with the saving screen graphics and slower running.

  In any case try check the energy saving settings and the use of the processor to maximum power. Check also running a process in the Task Manager and stop all unnecessary processes running. Don't forget that antivir application doesn t do any disk HARD analysis in the background.

• How to connect the Qosmio G20 156 to DTT2200 sound creative

  Can someone recommend the best way to connect my G20-156 sound creativity works 5.1 desktop theater DTT2200. This was connected to a PC so I think a card external sound would be via a USB port, but is this the best way and that model?

  Hello

  I put t know what cables and what made the 5.1 support desktop theater DTT2200 but the Qosmio supports headphones with S/PDIF out.

  I use the headphone jack on my satellite to connect the unit to the stereo.
  I use a cable with a connector on one end and RCA connectors (red and white) 2 on the other end of the cable.
  The two connectors, I connected to HiFi and taking helmet.

  I think you can also try to use the same way to connect external speakers for the Qosmio.

• Qosmio G20 156 - no sound

  Hello

  I have a little trouble with my g20-156.
  He had ceased to find wireless networks, whereas it was need a bit of cleaning up anyway, I restored it back to factory default settings.
  The good news is that the wireless problem is now resolved - the bad news is that I have no sound!

  I have checked all the settings in the audio and audio menus and you don't see anything obvious.
  There is a "dumb" light next to the volume knob that is continuously on.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated, because it drives me crazy!

  Thank you

  > There is a 'silent' light next to the volume knob that is continuously on.
  This means that the sound is muted.
  You should go to control panel-> sound control and should check the tabs there.
  In one of the tabs, you will find an option called turn off the sound.
  Do not forget that it is unchecked (mute is not activated.)

• Qosmio G20 - 156 issue of battery internal

  Having sent the G20 back under warranty for a revision complete, I got it back and put it away. It was not used for 2 years after checking that everything was working ok. Now when I turn it on I get a back like screen and I like the internal battery is gone!

  I didn't even know that he was one who apparently runs out after about 5 years. Is this true and if so why didn't anyone tell you on this subject. It is also apparently only accessible if you remove most of the computer - is that correct and why is it so inaccessible?

  They assume that these machines will not last 5 years?
  What are my options, worth the time and money to get the battery replaced or should I sell just the computer as a whole to factory like new.
  Advice would be appreciated.

  Hello

  I think you mean that the BIOS battery (also called battery CMOS).
  Its ascent (in many cases also welded) on the motherboard and this battery feeds for BIOS.

  Usually this battery is always charged when the AC adapter is plugged in and the laptop is turned on.

  As far as I know the battery must be charged for 18 hours in order to get fully charged. Therefore, connect the power adapter and leave the laptop running for a longer period of time (6 pm). Then check if the battery would be charged.
  If not, then the technician must verify and if necessary this part needs to be replaced.

  Op sys: Windows MCE SP3

  Card SD & dvd stopped working after I tried to update the sd driver.

  I downloaded the module sd-secure-en - 20080916100011.zip in the list of drivers for my SD card and on the execution of the installation requires a missing file * SD Secure Module.msi. *.
  Is this a fault in driver installation, or should I have this file on my PC.

• Qosmio G20 - update Tuner TV digital?

  Hello

  I have the Qosmio G20 and unfortunately it only support analog TV. I wrote to the Japan Toshiba here and they said that it is not possible to upgrade the G20 to digital television.

  It is the official manufacturer of advice, but as I know from experience, there is always another way around these things using third-party hardware and software.

  Anyone have any ideas on how this could be done?

  Hello

  The Qosmio G20 series was delivered with different hardware compatibility.
  Some of the G20 has been delivered with a TNT antenna + analog hybrid TV Tuner and DVB - T and other G20 supports only analog TV.

  Well, if your computer laptop doesn t supports digital Tv then you can try to use the tuner TNT + external.
  I sure you will find plenty of m offers in the internet.

• Qosmio G20-139 digital TV. [TNT] Freezes

  Hi all
  Just had a G20-139... and I love it! BUT having a problem with Digital Tuner. The digital picture freezes for a few seconds at a time. and sometimes, he says that he has lost the signal. However I know that the signal is good. When you look at it with my normal [TNT] tv. There is a slight delay in the image received on the G20.
  The image quality on the G20 IS SUPERB.
  I have the latest version of the driver [1.02.1930]. Not tried the analog photos yet...

  I wonder if anyone has had the same problem and if it
  has all the answers!
  It's one thing to Windows? or the processer get too high workload. ????
  Everything on "MY TV" works very well and it would be fantastic if this problem could be solved.

  Thanks a lot for the imformative forum.
  see you soon
  Ogilvie [uk]

  Hello

  You are right; Qosmio G20 is portable really nice. But why are you sure that the signal is good (strong) 100%? Did you use another digital tuner to compare the signal reception?
  Did you use MCE or a Qosmio Player?
  Maybe the digital tuner really loses the signal.

  I found a really nice article on HDTV in Windows MCE:

  There is a patch:

• Qosmio G20 - sound and drivers tv tuner (digital)

  Hi all

  I recently purchased a Qosmio G20 (490ls) to the Japan and nothing else that problems have had so far.
  The original operating system that came with the computer is Windows XP Home Edition (Japanese). I can't read Japanese, but I have an English version of Windows XP MCE, so I don't think it would be a problem.

  I could not install it correctly so I delivered to a technician and he accidentally deleted all (OS, drivers, etc) and I don't have a recovery of the original disc.

  in any case, I gave him a new technology to install and they're almost finished except they lack 2 drivers - audio driver and tv tuner driver. European drivers are analog and do not work on the Japanese version, however, it needs digital drivers.

  I desperately need a "digital sound driver" and a "digital tv tuner driver", if someone could help me out or point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated =)

  Thank you

  Hello Michael

  I'm very happy you're here. Maybe you can give us some very useful information. I heard that just TV tuner to the Japan from be used worldwide without restriction standard.
  Do you know something?

  Maybe this is the reason why you can't set it up properly. I am sure that the driver for your device is designed only for the Japanese market and it is possible that our pilot European doesn t work properly. Check the driver of OUR download site

• Qosmio G20: MCE RPG and can't find any digital TV channels

  MCE RPG services digital antenna and find any of them after I installed Media Player Classic on my Qosmio G20. before the installation of the said I could watch digital tv. the place where I live has begun broadcasting dvb - t for local four-channel a few months a go. y at - there anyone out there that can help me find the problem and its solution?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Are you sure that your G20 was delivered with a DVB - T tuner and analogue TV tuner not only 100%?
  As far as I know the g-20 was delivered with a different hardware configuration

  But if you camera supports DVB - T tuner, so I think that digital signal is not strong enough to receive the digital channels.

  If you wish, you can consult this useful document on HDTV on MCE:

• Qosmio F20-137: is decoder Mpeg-2, the reason for freezing of digital television?

  Hello
  I posted a message to wonder about the digital TV freezing on my Qosmio problem, a problem shared with many other users it seems a few weeks ago.

  While studying this problem, I used the available program of diagnostics of Microsoft Media Center, from the Microsoft Download Center. When it runs everything passes the test apart from the following:

  First MPEG2 Audio decoder & initial MPEG2 Video decoder. According to the program, they are both inconsistent with the media library.

  Anyone know if this could cause a problem with the TV?

  Dave Shackleton

  Hello

  It is not easy to tell if this decoder is the reason for the freeze of digital television in the United Kingdom.
  I also read a few comments on this strange problem on Qosmio with digital television in the United Kingdom.
  I think that the best way to get the answer to this question is to remove this decoder application and try to use the digital TV without this software.
  It would be very interesting for me and for everyone else to know the result.
  However, check it out and please post again if you will get further information and results.

• Qosmio G20-109: first channel television in black and white and then in color

  Hello
  I purchased a Qosmio G20-109 in France a week ago.
  It works perfectly except the TV.
  When I start the Tv game, the first string is in black and white.
  If I change the channel, the next ones are in color.
  The drivers are ok;

  You have an idea to solve this problem?

  Thank you very much.

  CoolChris

  Hi Chris

  Your problem is a specific problem of the country. It is not easy to say what may be the problem. The only thing I can suggest is manual programming of the channels. You can maybe on this way to find an exact frequency of this channel.
