Qosimo G20-139, gel UK Freeview photos!

Hi all.

Everyone out there in the United Kingdom. with a brand new G20-139?
You have problems with the HYBRID TV. DIGITAL TUNER. ??.

The images are great, but they freeze for a few seconds at a time [not on a regular basis].

DTT signals are perfect, and other digital tuners work well in the House.

Analoug sigs are perfect and works well on the media library and toilet paper.

Really, it is an irritating problem and would be more interested if any of you have had the same.

See you soon

Ogilvie.

Hello

It's not easy to say why it occurs. Maybe it s your air network.

    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

    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 - 139 problem - won't turn on no-help

    I had my Qosmio G20-139 since early 2006 and have had no problems with it so far.

    About a week ago I started having some blue screen error, I installed the latest driver updates etc and assumed that would cover all the problems. Today, however, my laptop goes off and I can't get it to power upward. The lights on the front, showing the power and battery etc, are lit, and when I press the power button it lights up usual blue, however, nothing else happens. No other light (eg. screen remote wireless, indicator hard disk etc.). The laptop seems to just unable to power on.

    I guess I wonder if there is a fix for this, or if I have to send the laptop.

    My main concern is that few of my files are backed up and I have a lot of photos and data, that I can't really afford to lose.

    Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Even if someone would guide me towards a solution to recover files.

    Thank you
    Stephanie

    Hey Buddy

    From your description of the laptop turns off automatically.
    Perhaps this was caused due to internal temperature high more often than the laptop goes off to prevent the equipment from damage

    I don't very well if you get the laptop working again if some of the material is too bad Mr. I mean if processor or motherboard are affected while a replacement could help solve this problem.

    In my opinion, the material should be checked by a technician of the ASP.

    With regard to your data on the disk HARD;
    Well, it might be possible to remove the portable computer HARD drive and connect it to another computer using an external HARD disk controller.
    Then you should be able to access the HARD disk and back up data.

  • Qosmio G20 - 139 flashing indicator power DC only used

    Qosmio G20 139
    System does not boot, gives a flashing orange DC power indicator only.

    No other indicator.
    Seems to be a code. If I read gives 332
    Battery is fully charged and tried more than one power supply.

    Checked the voltage on the inputs MB seems OK
    Have you tried all the combinations of battery and network combinations but nothing changes.

    Hmm... looks like a hardware problem on the mobo...
    Check the memory sticks.
    Remove one and try to power the unit using a module only.
    You should check both with different combinations means you should check also the two memory slots.

    My computer laptop didn t start because of the defective module.
    However, if this does not help, then you will need contact a local technician because the guy could locate the defective part.
    But I think it could be a motherboard problem, which means that the new Council would be necessary and this can be very expensive.

    I am looking for a Qosmio G20-139. Anyone know where I can get a very good price? I'm hoping not to spend more than £1200.

    Thank you

    Chris

    Hello

    Well, I found an information that this laptop costs about £1,400
    Check this site:

  • Why does the HARD drive only shows 69.8 Gb on my G20-139?

    Why my G20-139 only displays 69.8 Go when it is supposed to be 80 GB? you seems to be missing a lot? Can anyone help with this.
    How can I contact Toshiba to the United Kingdom if nobody knows the answer?

    Hello

    How did you check the size of HARD drive?
    Well, as far as I know the Qosmio Player is pre-installed on the hidden partition.
    It is perhaps a reason for different size of HARD drive.

    Good bye

  • Qosmio G20-139: use the laptop screen to play on the Xbox 360

    Hi I have a question about the monitor function with the G20-139,

    I have an xbox 360 and would like to know if there is a way to use laptops screen to play on the 360 in high definition or composite mode using the monitor function. With the laptop came a composite cable at one end and a sort of headphone 3.5 mm at the other.

    I read the manual about the case and it does not work.

    Any help would be appreciated thanks

    Hello

    The port monitor - where you can connect with the composite cable can be used to display video from your digital camcorder, video game or VCR on the internal LCD screen. It can be used as a line-in port to allow the connection of a stereo device for audio input.

    In my opinion, you also need this cable to connect the Xbox to the Qosmio with composite cable plug-in software component.
    http://www.madcatz.com/default.asp?page=257&CategoryImg=Xbox_360_Cables

    Then to commence the Qosmio with the Monitor-in button that starts the Qosmio player.

    Good bye

  • Qosmio G20-139 - Ram upgrade question

    Hi my name is m.k.ash

    My equation on my Qosmio G20-139 PC Ram upgrade
    In prouction specifications said maximum extension 2048MB

    I can upgradeed 4 g or not? or only 2048 max.
    Thank you very much

    Hello

    If the manual indicates that only 2 GB are possible then you can move the RAM only to 2 GB (2 x 1 GB module)

    I thing the laptop supports the Intel 915 PM chipset and it supports 2 GB of RAM.

    Hello

    It is not easy to say what the problem is here, but in my opinion, you should try to use a third party burning application, try to create DVDs.

    I can recommend Nero Express. I tested it on Qosmio G20 and it works perfectly. I also have very good results with Ulead DVD MovieFactory 5. It works perfectly.

  • Qosimo G20-127: no sound when the TV in MCE

    my laptop is Qosimo G20-127. I have a problem. There is no sound on the tv. There is a picture but no sound. Windows media center is the operating system. Everything under MCE works well and it is solid under other applications, but not when I'm watching TV.

    Help, please

    Hello

    I presume that some sounds is set to mute option. Please check the first volume control. I guess you are using a standard antenna in the port and that he cannot imagine that the audio signal is not there.

    If you find what is the problem please let us know.
