  Hello

  Why if someone tell you what to do? You have already published the resolution (perhaps unknowingly)

  > If I install clean windows again and then play this video then it wil work correctly, after I installed word, exel, my printer, virusdriver and so on, so that video won't work no more place.

  So if you install applications, then generally performance system, due to newly installed services, tools in the systemtray applications or background, that all ends with this stuff
  (word, exel, my printer, virusdriver), you mentioned.
  So in my honest opinion, I you suggest reinstalling your system and then follow these steps:

  First AN application (for example, the desktop) install and try to play your video. Should the video smoothly and then continue to install the software (as anti-virus) and check again.
  If the video is smooth after each new software installed, proceed with the installation of the following.
  But if you recognize yourself, the video starts to run with the stuttering and slower speed, then the last installed application you´ve is the software that uses too many system resources.

  If you discover which application causes the video doesn't work so well, then try to find another software that does not have as many system-power of your computer.

• Upgrade HDD/SSD on Qosmio G30-126

  I'm trying to decide if I should upgrade existing at a larger size HARD drive or just a large and an SSD.

  Question 1: what is the size for the two new HARD drives because the power supply is limited?
  Question2: For now, I run the two HARD a disc, so no RAID. Is it possible that I can determine what is on which drive? I do not envy the dumping everything on a drive connected and then import the new HARD disk.
  Question3: Is there a substantial improvement in speed when using the SSD as a HARD drive? I run W7 professional and compared to Mint example startup is pathetically slow.

  Appreciate answers or suggestions.

  Hello

  Qosmio G30 already supports SATA interface and so general, interface SATA has no capacity limit. If you can install a SATA 2.5 HARD drive with all the sizes. Ore of 500 GB drives is no problem on SATA interface so it s on applications and data based on what size you want / need.

  If your laptop is capable of managing 2 hard/SSD drives, you can buy an SSD 128GB for example for Windows and your applications and a HDD (500 GB) for your data.

  Disc SSD is faster than hard drives, but they are more expensive. SSD are perfect for the OS itself and programs but for data such as photos, music, etc. Hard drives are fast enough.

• More big HDD in a Satellite 1110

  Hello...

  .. .and 1st excuse my bad English pls. (o)

  I own a Satellite 1110. The disk HARD original (TOSHIBA MK3018GAP) are for trash th yesterday (more than 40% bad cluster * grumpf *) so I have to replace it.
  I would also like to have a larger HARD drive is the best time to replace the broken with a 80 GB drive.
  I think I'll use a SAMSUNG MP0804H.

  But now my q:
  All known issues when you use a HARD disk larger than the original HARD drive? It is the BIOS, bridge,... ok to drive this HARD drive? The BIOS will see a new? Does anyone have to do the same thing before?

  BTW: Unscrew and replacement are not the problem for me...

  Thx a lot

  Hello

  If you want to change the DVD player, it will be very complicated. You have to disassemble the whole unit. AFAIK the DVD player is fixed with two screws card system. If you don't have a lot of experience please don t do it yourself.

• Recovery does not work wth my Qosmio G30-137

  Hello everyone, I have big problems with my Qosmio G30-137. I tried to put the system in the State of origin using the recovery disk. After booting from the floppy, the procedure starts as usual and gets to the language screen. Then the trouble begins. After selecting the language the error next watch-up and the process breaks. The worst is that the computer starts not more that a recovery is critical.

  Error message:

  IOCTRL_DISK_GET_LENGTH_INFO.------ ------PHYSICAL DRIVE 0
  The device is not ready

  It seems that the software can not see the drive. However, in the BIOS, both drives are visible and shown OK. I put the raid parameters to different options and I also tried swapping hard disks or restore with a single disc. Nothing worked! Panic mode...

  Thanks in advance!

  Hallo Frank

  Have you tried to boot from another bootable CD/DVD?
  Try please use Microsoft WXP / Vista CD/DVD facilities. It will be interesting to see if the facilities procedure ends on the same point.

  But in my opinion, there is a problem with the HARD drive.

• Qosmio G30-116: TV button - where is it?

  Hello everyone.
  I would like to ask questions about the (Tv) button in the qosmio G30-116. Do not I have it on my blue (AV) button on the keyboard.
  I tried to play station 2 on the G30-116 but it doesn't work unless through media center which is really slow and bad.

  My friend has a G20, he bought from the United States, and it has a button "Tv in" and when it connects (play station2) through D-video or video, simply press that button, then there a live inistent Tv that is faster than the media library.
  As far as I know because in media center, the game will be very slow?

  G30 suppouse to be better than the G20. Why there is no Tv-in button? Where we can press on and play or watch the sky or anything like that, speed of the media center boring?

  Why should I use media center to play (play station) while G20 users WHOSE!
  I contacted toshiba and they said your are going to ring me tomorrow or the day after, but if I found that this Tv-in support dosen't G30 series!

  Could someone correct me if I'm wrong please, this question is open for all the qosmio but especially for those with the G30.

  Thanks to you all

  Hello

  I think you're wrong.
  I put t found information about the Qosmio G30-116, but on the Qosmio G30-134.
  But I guess that these two units are similar.
  Check your user manual that was preinstalled on your laptop.

  However, the Qosmio supports the monitor button. This is the second on the right.
  The Qosmio player should start. There, you can choose between TV mode, CD or DVD. I think you need the TV mode.
  You should also check your right connection. I suppose that you use the right cable and the composite port (monitor of).

• Qosmio G30 - 163 - cold start takes more than 5 minutes

  Recently my Toshiba Qosmio G30 - 163 aged only 4 months takes a boot cold (from Qosmio Logo) 5-10 minutes of connection Windows users... I already used the disk recovery and reformatted the second drive, remove any software, but there are still more than 5 minutes at startup. Can anyone help?

  It's nice that you have installed OS again, but we don t know what applications do you use for you personal configuration. Is your laptop connected to the local network in the business or you use at home only?

  Here in the forum, it is not easy to say something concrete, because nobody knows how you have configured your Qosmio. Of my friends a Qosmio G30 and start taking some time but not so long.

• Qosmio G30-161: can not see the second HDD in my computer

  Hello
  can someone tell me, that I rebooted reboot DVD in my laptop to restore all of the windows in the normal settings
  as I got when I bought the laptop.
  but for some reason when I go into my computer I do not see the 2nd HDD.

  There is only one disk c it but not the other hard drive. I need to change the settings of smoke to see the 2nd hard drive?

  Hello

  Well, the Qosmio G30-161 should be delivered with two hard drives of 60 GB.
  I guess you can see a single HARD disk due to the RAID settings.
  The unit supports RAID technology.
  I think that the RAID is on the mirror. This means that the data is duplicated on both disks.
  Generally, it should be possible to disable the RAID.
  Check the folder utilities Toshiba.

  PS: It is possible that you will lose data after changing the RAID settings. Be careful.

• Qosmio G30 - 126 - hdd instaltion Win7 or Vista appears

  Hi all

  I have a Qosmio g30-126 system.
  I don't have the recovery CD.
  I want to install the Win7 or Win Vista.
  It is not showing me the two 200 + 200 HARD drive.

  Please tell to me what I'm doing.

  Hi mate

  I think that you don t need a driver SATA, but RAID driver!

  AFAIK the Qosmio G30 supports RAID and so you must include the RAID driver.
  Visit the page of European driver of Toshiba and download the RAID driver that is listed in the list.

  Note: Choose the Archive in the Type of product because G30 is an old series.

  After having downloaded and uzipped the driver, you need to add this driver during Windows Setup configuration.

• Qosmio G30: Boot from HDD external ESATA

  Dear all,

  I am trying to boot from a disk external HARD connected with an express/34 card that has a START function. It works like one charm on another laptop manufacturers because the express/34 card is recognized without problems. I can choose the external sata HARD drive as a bootdevice.

  My BIOS (V3.5) Qosmio G30 seems not to have this option. Any suggestions? Thank you for your comments!

  card esata Express/34: http://www.cooldrives.com/2saexcadues.html (ROM BIOS supports boot features)

  Kind regards

  Hello

  These function the BIOS boot options.
  The BIOS that is installed on the G30 is no option. So unfortunately, but there is nothing to do!

  Best regards

• After recovering from the second HDD is not visible - Qosmio G30

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio G30 and I use the recovery cd and I've lost hard drive 2

  The 2 hard disk does not appear in my computer and whenever I restart the system says need to mirror.

  Ineed so help please

  THX

  Hello

  I assume that your RAID settings are set to mirroring (RAID-1) and not to the stripping (RAID-0)

  The RAID may change in the BIOS on the 3rd page.
  Please check this box.

  But note; If you would change the RAID settings you would lose all of the data stored on the HARD drive.

  PS: See you the user manual. There is useful information on the RAID and how to use it.

  Best regards

• Update hardware and software Qosmio G30-198 for hight performance

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio G30-198.

  I have to use Autodesk Civil 3D program in the laptop.
  This is a CAD program that requires a lot of ram and a transmission of data high-speed HARD drive.
  To do this, it is absolutely necessary to update hardware and software for civil use with good performance.

  I need to buy and install HDD SSD, install more RAM (which is the maximum allowed in this computer?) and I need to install Win 7 Professional 64 bit.

  Please,

  If anyone can tell me how I can further improve the performance of the laptop, please tell me.
  I don't know what steps I need to keep.

  Can you help me?

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  The RAM can be expanded up to 4 GB
  As far as I know this laptop supports the Intel® 945 PM Express chipset and supports this chipset may 4 GB of RAM
  http://Ark.Intel.com/products/chipsets/22817

  The HDD or SSD drive update shouldn't be a big problem.
  Usually the built in SATA controller should be able to manage the common SATA SSDS

• Qosmio G30 - software very slow loading

  I have a Qosmio G30 P650 unit and had since 2009. Two weeks only noticed during the bars running under the windows xp loading Win Xp logo slows down and it takes a long time to load windows. He had no other choice but to re - install the software using the recovery CD.

  However, I found that in a first time, the device works well after the resumption, but after turning off and leave for a while and turn it on again a few hours later it's the same thing. The software is loading very slowly. But in safe mode, it's fast.

  What is a hard drive problem? There was a time after that reloading the recovery software (even clear partitions), the software will load more slowly. Sometimes after recovery, it is normal but after reboot, the problem repeats.

  Can someone tell me what could be wrong with this laptop?

  Thank you very much

  > Is this a hard drive problem?
  Perhaps.

  Must test the HARD drive for errors possible there are many diagnostic tools that could test the HARD drive.
  For example: HDD Regenerator 2011, SMARTReporter 3.0.4 or the freeware software called Drive Fitness Test.

• Qosmio G30 - RAID may not reflect new 500 GB HARD drive

  I have installed 2 new identical 500 GB hard in my Qosmio G30 with Windows XP.

  The system works well, but the disc cannot be mirrored. Report of the Raid Controller is 'Normal Operation status.

  This disk cannot be used for mirroring because it is outside the management of the RAID."

  Who can tell me whether it is a disc error or is the drive of 500 GB to big for the toshiba with Windows XP raid controller?

  > Can anyone tell me if it of a disc error, or is the drive of 500 GB to big for the toshiba with Windows XP raid controller?

  Hmm. I m not very good, but it could be possible that the 500 GB HARD drive is too big for the mirroring of the mode.

  But have you tried to change the mode in comforter Toshiba RAID you might find in Toshiba Assist-> Protect Fix & -> RAID Console

  Check if you can switch to the mirroring.

  By the way; RAID-1 is defined in the BIOS?
  Usually, when you use RAID-1 configuration, the RAID is set to mirroring. In this case, the operating system recognizes the reduced ability to both hard drives (in your case, it is not important since you are using the two 500 GB HDD).

  Check it!
