• Qosmio F25: Cannot use the recovery CD - bad CD message appears

  I have a Qosmio F25-AV205. When I tried to use the recovery cd set with my laptop computer, an error message appears saying that I use the wrong cd and this cd is for model F25. Only despite I have the same model that the message...

  What is the problem?

  Someone replace the motherboard of your laptop?
  Sometime, a Toshiba system has had the system board replaced, it may become impossible to image the system using the recovery CD.

  The DMI string contains the model number of the system. When you use a recovery CD to recreate the image on a system, the installation process examines the DMI string and compares this string to the image being restored to ensure that the right image is applied to the correct machine.

  If the DMI string and the label on the image n t game, a bad machine or bad CD message will appear.
  In this case, you should ask the ASP in your country for assistance

• Can Qosmio F25 - I use the card TV in Europe?

  I have a Qosmio F25 and bought from the United States. I live in Turkey in Turkey using pal/secam signals, but f25 supports ntsc.
  Can someone give me a clear solution to this prblem

  Hello

  Just a small comment on this: I'm not 100% sure, but AFAIK after Qosmioplayer installation you need to install the operating system. It is not possible to install Qosmioplayer later.

  Please also check this document of the Toshiba http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB4600QF000OR01.htm Knowledge Base.

• Qosmio F25 is burning with AC power

  Hello
  I have a problem with my qosmio when I work with my laptop on the mode of power supply ac has a cpu temp on 70Celsius mode energy saving is norm
  When I work with the battery mode, the cpu temperature is 50celsius in normal operation the adapter is hot it is normal

  Sorry for my bad English

  Hi Sven (I wonder if you can play the guitar like jimi the real one ;))

  OK now your question: Don t worry, everything is ok.

  If the laptop is connected to the power adapter the saver of energy uses the normal power mode and all devices such as CPU, GPU run with maximum performance and do not save the power. (No energy saving = best = higher temperature performance)

  Qosmio notebooks are really powerful. This unit is not true portable but a table desktop PC. You know, you can compare the performance of these laptops with desktop PC and its nothing unusual if these units produce more heat as for example a Satellite M40, which is much lower.

  Everything is ok

• Qosmio F25 - lost BIOS PASSWORD

  Hello

  Kid of this friend was messing around with the BIOS, and now he forgot the passwd of admin he setup for his mom's laptop. She is a very good friend of mine, and after doing some research on the Internet I discovered that there is a way to get a "response code", after that he entered, can I reset the password for it.

  Some people (I guess than the ex-toshiba technicians) are trying to charge $85 or more to send a response code, but I think it's a scam, because it can happen to anyone and it should be a service that Toshiba should be willing to give to the rightful owners.

  in any case, I entered this forum hoping to learn how to talk to a Toshiba technician who could have the "generation of the response program" and who is willing to help this family that does not have the money to pay for their misdeeds.

  In case you can help us, I left the laptop turned on with the following questions of challenge to the screen, maybe you guys can send me the response Code. We will appreciate it very much!

  SERIAL NUMBER: 65094000HBN
  CHALLENGE CODE: C0QAJ-N4B33-8A1M3-VA7P1-T8RCY
  Response code:?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Unfortunately, all this doesn t work on your way of thinking, and nobody here can help you with that.
  It doesn t work with a response-generating program. Only the Toshiba authorized service provider can send the request for this response code.
  The response code will be given from the Toshiba service headquarters. It is a procedure of special type.

  Toshiba must protect customers, assets and the data saved to disk, so you can't wait for someone to help you with this kind of things in a public forum.

  Sorry but only registered buddy can help you with this.

• Helps the headphone jack!

  Welcome.
  
  So about 4-5 months ago, I bought a brand new HP Pavilion PC g6.
  A few months later (2-3) I started to have problems with the sound. Whenever I plugged the headphones, the sound would not come to her. First of all, I thought it was the helmet that I was using. It turns out that it wasn't. Then I thought it was something with audio players or anything else. (Control Panel-> hardware and sound-> manage audio devices). It turns out that it wasn't.
  
  The problem started as my helmet is sound but cut wide in some places. I have to play with the headphone jack and move it a bit to get the sound. At that time, portable headphone plug was already loose. Then, for about 5-10 minutes, something really strange happened. His was no more. I couldn't not all the sounds if it was for my headphones or speakers of my laptop.
  
  After about 10 minutes, the sound is back after a reboot. However, the sound was weird and glitch. I mean, is that whenever I plug in the headphones, 55% of the sound would come through them, but the other 45% would come out of my laptop speakerks.
  Yet once again, I thought it was the helmet, but no. Even with multiple changes of helmet and try them on different computers, the headphones were great. I started thinking that it was the helmet being loose which caused all these problems. I started to look for solutions. I came across a post of aid for the same issue: being loose headphone jack.
  Most of them said that if the helmet was not directly related to the motherboard, that the issue would be fixed easly.
  
  My question is:
  (1) how will I know if the headset is connected to the motherboard directly?
  (2) how can I fix the problem if;
  (a) it is directly connected.

  (b) if it is not connected to it directly.
  (3) the headphone plug is loose have EVERYTHING link to my sound works does not correctly.
  
  Thank you and more information will be provided on request.
  
  Additional information: I know that HP laptop computers have a 1 year warranty, however, how do I check for mine?

  Hi kamel.

  1. with the hardware problems, it is best to contact support for your options before going inside the laptop.
  
  2. If you notice that you are not covered by your phones warranty, if you provide me with your laptop model number, I'll see if there is a maintenance and service guide. (another workaround of the guarantee is to get a USB headset connected)

• How can I view and connect my PS2 (play station) on Qosmio LCD?

  Hello

  I bought a Qosmio F25 and I tried to connect my PS2 to view it on the LCD screen. I connected the PS2 for the Composite video cable and I tried all channels on television but did not display channel?

  I did the right thing, or miss me something?

  (P.S. I tried to treat the PS as a box and tried to use the media center to configure and analyze for the channel but apparently sandbox model must be inserted and that's where I stopped)

  Appreciate your quick support

  Thank you!

  You have installed on your machine Qosmioplayer?
  Have you tried to scan all channels on Qosmioplayer?

  The TV or VCR signal is the same as on PS2. Admittedly somehow.

• MS A30 - battery charging when I plug in the power cable

  Hello

  I'm having some problems with (I think) on my A30 power management utility. When I am running on battery power and I plug in the power cable, the battery continues to discharge even if the laptop 'knows' that it runs on the power grid (ie the utility says "current generator: alternating current.") "Online, discharges: 82%. Strangely, if I put the laptop in mode 'sleep', then resume, she goes back to normal (i.e. working on current alternative, the battery charges).

  It is true, I think that this began after I installed "PC Pitstop optimize Scan" www.pcpitstop.com (please, not conferences - I used a couple of their public services before and they were very good, so I thought it would be too much), so I guess it's some sort of configuration problem, but I have no idea where to go from here. I went through all the options on the power management utility, but they all look sensitive. Any ideas (other than do not install software stupid, doubtful)?

  Kenny

  Hi Kenny,

  I experienced this behavior on my A30 where the system says it works on current alternative, but still drains the battery and stops eventually.

  In my case the problem has proved to be a loose DC Jack that sometimes cuts off contact with the socket on the back of the laptop. This momentary loss of power DC seems to provoke the power management utility switch to battery power, even though the DC power is restored. The only way out of this situation is to Hibernate / restarting the laptop.

  I think that it is a problem with the power supply subsystem in the laptop that does not react properly when it encounters a momentary loss of DC. Then the Toshiba power management utility is no longer responds correctly and switches to the battery power.

  My only solution to this was to anchor the DC cable to the back of my A30 so that there is now no chance of the plug DC moving in its socket. This has proved to be very effective for my A30 and I've had no recurrence of the problem.

• G10 - internal speakers do not disconnect

  When I use the headphone jack on my Qosmio G10 with an S/PDIF optical (Toslink) cable, the internal speakers are not disabled, although the manual (page 2-4) indicates they should.
  They are disabled when headphones are used.
  Is my laptop at fault or the user guide?

  Hello Jimac

  You are absolutely right. S manual said that the internal speakers will be disabled automatically and this information is just. Audio contains a small switch that turn off the internal speakers if the audio input is in use.

  I guess this little switch is defective. Unfortunately it can be fixed on your own. Just service partner can check correctly. I'm sure that the warranty is still valid. Call them and explain the problem.

  Good bye

• Loose on Satellite P100-240 DC-In Jack

  I just noticed that my new Toshiba P100-240 laptoop has quite a 'loose' DC in socket - is not to lose in making decision, but the actual shooting itself.

  While she viewed etc and I don't miss the power or anything, I was wondering if this is normal, or if the plug must be rigid without movement.

  P100-240 users can let me know if their is the same?

  Post edited by: 2002standardmat

  Hello

  I put t know if this appears on another unit P100, but something similar happens on my laptop's brother.
  The power jack on the laptop was lost.
  It was a new laptop so I was recommended to contact the service.
  The technician said that the screw is just a little loose and therefore the vacillee DC Jack.

  Possibly it of identical on your laptop, but I think that it s not terrible.

• A few questions on Qosmio G30-175

  I am very satisfied of this laptop who purchased at a reduced price when upgraded all hard drives (2 x 80 GB is plenty for me).

  A few questions.

  1. the antenna (not the SCART) seems to be a little loose at the back. I had not noticed this before, has it become loose or is it some slack to allow easy access?

  2 with the system restore. Something I used to do often on my old satellite. It's easy with the G30 i.e ghosts in quite complete set?

  3. what tips are there for this particular model on Vista? Ive read on the problems of raid and so on for other people, I was wondering if someone had done and shares their experience

  Sorry for the many questions, but I have lurked long enough! ;)

  AHS

  (1) has not noticed any loose on the antenna to the computer plug phone back.
  But in my opinion if it has no negative influence on the quality of TV or picture then you can life with that. If this is not the case, make a call to the technician. He should take a look at this Jack.

  (2) the Windows XP System Restore tool is a useful application if you want to restore the starting point of you OS. I use it several times

  (3) Please check this forum category. You will find a few discussions on Vista and RAID on the Qosmio laptop

• Portege R100 - defective headphone jack

  Headphone 3.5 mm on my R100 hole seems to be defective (I tried it with another helmet and with them the sound is distorted unless I managed to get the plug in the right position).

  I will provide Toshiba on this subject shortly, but I was just wondering if anyone could tell me if this component replacement is a simple procedure?

  Thank you very much.

  Hi Dan,.

  The headphone jack is a pretty basic device that can usually be bought quite cheaply from most electrical spare outlets. The real problem is to find a repairman that will repair to the component level. Nowadays, the trend is to replace a whole PCB rather than simply weld on a new component.

  According your description of the problem as it sounds as if we spring metal tags is either loose or bent and therefore does not sufficiently wityh contact the helmet when it is inserted.

  If your laptop is still under warranty, then it should be replaced at no charge.

  If your warranty has expired, it may be useful to check for repairers of local PC that quote ' component-level) repair services.

  Good luck
