Mother broken on Qosmio G30 162 card

I was told that my graphics card on my motherboard is broken. I would just buy a new, but I learn that I have to replace everything on the motherboard, is this true?

To see my computer spec go to [http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?PRODUCT_ID=116151&DISC _ MODEL = 1 & service = UK]

Thanks for the help

Yes, unfortunately it is true. The graphics chip is fixed on the map and it of not easy to remove on the simply average. For the most part these chips are soldered on the map!
Looks like you will need to contact the ASP in your country for a replacement of the mobo.
If your warranty is valid all replacements must be made free of charge!

    My machine came with a GeForce 7600 256 MB has told me that the technician "is integrated with the Commission. Now buying a new pc isn't an option.
    It is therefore possible to update this machine graphics card or increase the amount of ram that the current map (I'm no stranger, with the help of a soldering iron)

    I would like to hear from someone who has experienced similar problems and found a solution.
    Any help appreciated thanks

    You will meet many people who has the same attention but I can tell you that this is not possible.
    GPU is mainly set at the Board of Directors and cannot be upgraded.
    And this isn't only a deal with Toshiba laptops, but it is usually not possible on all laptops from different manufacturers.

    Qosmio G30 OS Vista ultimate 32

    Hello

    It seems that this has nothing to do with the laptop but with installed applications.
    Possibly a configuration or compatibility problem

    It's not easy to say what can be the solution, but in the first step, you need to reinstall certain applications as the next step should be a new installation of operating system/update, etc.

    Good luck

  • Qosmio G30-162 - how to handle the dead battery?

    I use my Qosmio G30 plugged into the mains. The battery is exhausted, and so I lost the use of the computer. What I need to replace the battery, or is there any method of conversion of the PC for network use only? All advice appreciated... Senior user.

    Hello

    No, in this case, you can repair the battery t and you need a spare battery because the battery is not repairable.

    > or is there any method of conversion of the PC for network use only?
    Hmm I put t know what you mean, but you don't need a battery. Alternatively, you can use the laptop with AC/DC adapter only. That s no problem. :)

  • Graphics broken on Qosmio G30

    I brought a G30 two years ago and last year the graphics card broke. It happened just as the warranty ran out so I had to pay £600.00 for repair.

    Two weeks ago, that the graphics card has beaten once again, contacting the store, they said that Toshiba had only given 3 months warranty. I contacted Toshiba and they confirmed that they give never 3 months warranty on all repairs.

    So now, I have a laptop two year old which cost me £2100 .00approx (with the reapir) that I can't use.

    I am really amazed that a company like Toshiba will put a 3 months warranty on a piece which costs £600.00.

    Reading some of the comments on this forum it seems as if it was a common fault so my thought is if that's the case why Toshiba didn't call the product?

    Needless to say that I am a very displeased customer and I don't have to buy anything done by Toshiba yet and I would not recommend their products to anyone

    Hi mate,

    that sounds awful and is not very good. In such situations Don t you have many options, I had the same problem and I sold my machine @ ebay because there was no chance for me to spend more money on this laptop.

    This holds true with 3 months, I have had the same information and I will say, I live with this fact.

    I understand you dude, but Needless to say it s just not worthy it s a solution or wait if someone Vienna help because Don t you have an option in this case. I if were you I sell the machine and check for something else that fullfills your needs a lot more better.

  • Qosmio G30-162 in hibernation mode / permanent suspension

    I managed to put my laptop in suspend (via Ubuntu). When I turn on the laptop via the power button I have now just get a black screen.

    I know that linux is not officially supported, but how can I reset the laptop? I tried running down the battery, but I guess that's the point of the function. Please let me know if there is way.

    Thank you!

    Hi mate

    Please, remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter.
    Leave the laptop for about 2 hours, and then reconnect the two parts.
    Then try to power the unit and check if you would be able to access the BIOS by pressing ESC and F1.

  • Qosmio G30-126 + graphic card GeForce 7600

    Hello

    as I've written before this graphics card was without original driver NVidia for Vista. I was always in trouble with graph and when it came the first update in October 2007, I was happy, but there remained only the Toshiba driver (nothing original for Vista to the web pages of NVidia). Later on came another bet to level, but still not original and it show me that the driver is named now GeForce 7650GS. Last week, I download driver direct from NVidia web.

    Any person of any kind - change the name of the driver?

    Hello

    I put t know where you found the name of the graphics card but the Qosmio G30-126 was equipped with the NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 name Code G73M graphics chip.

    The graphics driver Vista and XP is available on the Toshiba page.

    It s own modified Toshiba graphic driver and you should always use the graphics drivers from the Toshiba page to prevent the equipment from damage

  • Qosmio G30-204 - upgrade of the WLAN card

    Hi people.

    I currently have an Intel pro/Wireless 3945ABG Network card in my laptop. If I had to upgrade to a newer version, which we'd be one of the newest and best for my laptop?

    And the new WiMax from Intel would work in the Qosmio G30 - 204?

    Hey Buddy,

    The antenna is placed under the cover of the display and cables are placed under the keyboard or with other words, they are connected to the wireless network card.

    By the way: an upgrade to the draft N standard is not possible. In my view an update of the WLAN card is not logical.
