Qosmio F10-101 does not have a TV tuner

Hello

I bought my F10 about 2 years ago. It is actually a F10-101. I picked the local official Toshiba site (Turkey). On the web page, he said that F10 comes with a TV Tuner (such as all the Qosmios). Also I checked it on the site of toshiba - Europe.com. The local page was actually just a copy/paste of the toshiba - Europe.com

http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?PRODUCT_ID=98310&DISC_M OD = 1 & service = EU

2-3 days later, I bought the computer. Since I knew that the specifications, I didn't ask questions. When I got home, I realized that there was no TV Tuner on my machine, or remote control. I called the dealer that I bought, they said that none of the F10s have TV Tuners.

I sent to the local distributor of Toshiba on the problem, why this is so. They do not even condescend to answer. The TV Tuner functionality is also excluded from the site 2-3 days later (I also sent Toshiba International, but I was told to contact your local Distributor).
I didn't actually buy my Qosmio for its TV Tuner functionality. But this isn't what Qosmio is made for?

I didn't have to return to the computer dealer, because it is a very good machine in addition to its multimedia capabilities. I say "was" because of some problems of motherboard, I am facing nowadays. I'm a little start to Brown it off.

What would you do if the same thing has happened to you?

Hello Cagri

It is well known that you have time to 14 days for the product if you are not satisfied. I don't know how it works in your country, but here where I live I can bring it if I am not convinced. I will also say that after buying a new product each of us should check the product, and if something is not as described in the product description, we must respond as soon as possible and dealer.

Qosmio F10 does not work for me because it's one of the first laptops Qosmio but one thing confuses me. According to the specifications of the laptop it comes with WXP Home. Am I wrong? As far as I know to use the TV tuner you need Media Center Edition.

Sorry, but it's really not easy to be objective enough. After 2 years is now too late for all the complaints. I just hope that you still like your toy and I have a lot of fun with it.

Good bye

  • No tuner = no S-Video capture! (Qosmio F10-101)

    I just bought Qosmio F10-101, which comes without a TV tuner. I tried everything to save my VCR to the computer's S-video input, but this is not possible. I have already installed the registry patch and I tested several applications like WinDVD Creator video recording supplied with the machine, they do not all video input ports.

    The main reason why I bought this machine, it's that I thought that the S-video input could be used for recording the video on the hard drive. But it seems that this is not the case.

    So, I'm supposed to return the unit for another model? Or is there a workaround to record a S-video input to the hard drive? Please, remember that this isn't a TV tuner.

    TIA

    Hello Tia

    Since last week, I got a new Qosmio F20. I want to do the same thing as you. At the moment I am not familiar with this, but the Qosmio forum, you can find many discussions on this topic.

    Try to pick up some information.

  • Upgrade CPU on Qosmio F10-101

    Hello people,
    I tried to upgrade my Qosmio F10-101 1.7 to 1.8 GHz CPU, but the whole system runs very slowly.
    In fact, it runs up to 500 MHz and it is not possible to operate at full capacity.
    Finally, I went back to my original CPU, 1.7 Pentium chip.
    I think Toshiba is using a method to control the CPU serial number and reject any new CPU unless it is replaced by them.
    Does anyone have an idea how to make my notebook to accept the 1.8 GHz Centrino?

    Concerning
    Kypros

    Hello

    The fact is that after changing the motherboard or a unit firmware must be updated.
    Unfortunately, it is not possible to update the firmware for a common user.
    This can be done only by the Toshiba service partner.
    After this update the CPU has to work with maximum efficiency.

    I guess it's a question why the CPU works only with 500 MhZ

  • Required parameters for Qosmio F10-101

    Hi, I just bought my Qosmio F10-101 & I have two questions:

    1 - hard drive (60 GB) is a player, I need to divide it into 2 or more drives & keep back the preinstalled software (what are the exact steps?, I keep all the factory settings?).

    2. the models that include a television tuner weren't available when I bought my laptop, if I get the F10-101, is it possible to add a TV tuner? the performance will be ok or it will be affected because it is not built in from the beginning?
    Appreciate to advise me soon (especially to question 1) to activate the startup using my laptop.

    Thank you
    Amal

    You can use a program like partition magic that can partition the drive into multiple separate disks (for example C: D: etc..) It is installed in the windows operating system and he can do the job without losing existing data on your disk.

  • New Qosmio F10-101. Where is OneNote?

    Just bought a new Qosmio F10-101 in Greece with Greek Windows XP, but I can't find Microsoft OneNote installed on my machine. On the European model site 'abandoned' the specs say clearly that OneNote is provided with this model.
    So why this software is missing?

    Hi Eric,.

    My copy of OneNote has come on a CD and I had to install it myself. He was not on the OEM Windows XP installation, and it is not included on the recovery CD.

    I recommend that you check the packaging for your Qosmio original see if there is a CD somewhere.

  • Developer Edition does not have the Java Plugin

    My configuration:
    OS - Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
    Browser - Firefox Developer Edition
    Java - SE Runtime Environment build 1.8.0_51 - b16

    Installation path:
    Browser - C:\Program Files\Firefox Developer Edition
    Java - C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_51

    Description of the problem:
    My operating system, browser, and Java version are all of the nature of 64-bit and properly installed, however, Firefox does not have a Java plugin in the Add-ons Manager and I can't run Java on all Web sites. When I check Java on their website, it tells me that Java is disabled or not installed, but Java is enabled in the Java Control Panel.

    Hi mrflom, that's to be expected - the 64-bit versions are delivered with support plugin limited for the moment (single flash is in the whitelist). If you rely on the other npapi plugins please continue to regularly use 32-bit builds.

    . Hello

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.

    WARNING: Uninstaller or the use of Firefox and not run a third remover as part of this process, because who could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. These can be recovered, unless they have been backed up on an external device!

    Please report back to see if this helped you!

    Thank you.
