• Qosmio F10 - the Qosmio player Partition Recovery

  I have a Qosmio F10. He had the motherboard factory upgrade, RAM max, and a new 160 GB Samsung HARD drive mounted. So far so good. I've recently updated to Win7 and it was OK, once the drivers have been found, but I couldn't reinstall the Qosmio Player because apparently he found too little space.

  Hotline do not have much help, but I now realize that the QP is a Linux package in its own hidden partition. I've cleaned the disc, which makes an image of the system W7 on a USB HDD. Then I managed on the basis of reinstall the QP and update her, but the image will not recover in the form of images of Windows, I find now, will only recover a disk the same as the original or more.

  It is not of course because of the score of the PS. So how is it removed please? I tried everything so far.
  Just to make things to complete the product Toshiba Recovery DVD sent with the repaired machine is 70% complete and abandoned.

  Stephen

  Qosmioplayer is small application based on Linux, and according to the instructions of Toshiba s, must be installed as a first step, before you install the operating system. I m not 100% sure, but about 200 MB of free space on the HARD drive is required for installation of Qosmioplayer.
  It works perfectly when you use original Qosmioplayer and recovery disks but I put t know how it will work when you try to use your own image.

  I hope that someone else has the same model of laptop and solution for this.
  If you will be able to manage this please send a feedback.

• Qosmio F10: battery life

  I have a Qosmio F10 (2 months) and am pretty disappointed with the battery life.
  20 minutes running on battery at full power yesterday and the computer was turned off (3%)...
  Forget watching a DVD on the plane!
  I wonder if it is a BIOS issue or if there is no possibility to buy a more powerful battery.
  It seems to me that this computer was designed to run on a/c with the battery pack in as a secondary power (short!) option.
  Any comments?
  Also, did anyone tried these plane Chargers sold in airports?

  Hello

  In my opinion, you should try to set up your Qosmio for optimal battery usage. To optimize the battery DURATION use the Toshiba Power Saver utility. "TOSHIBA Power Saver" allows according to the specific use power management allows the reduction of the power consumption of your device and allows you to use your PC for a longer period when running on battery.

  You can reduce your energy consumption PC mainly for its use by reducing the brightness of the screen LCD or CPU processing speed. There are also various games of management settings power or 'profiles', prepared in advance. These profiles are designed to be used in some of the most common environments of the user. You can use these standard profiles or create your own profiles based on your own custom power management settings.

  I'm sure that all the settings of this can help you to use the device for a longer time. To watch DVDs using DVD player profile. You can change the profiles using the FN + F2 key combination.

• Qosmio F10: Forgotten my password Windows XP - how to reset?

  Hi all

  I haven't used my Qosmio F10 in addition to four months and the last time that I used it I had to change the password, but now I foolishly do not remember it.

  My account is the only account on the laptop, so I am also administrator. Is it possible that I can find out or reset the password?

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  Cannot delete the administrator account on Windows XP. You need to reinstall new OS to get access to the new created admin account.
  Simply start the installation from the Toshiba Recovery CD and the new operating system must be installed in a few minutes.

  But note; the new installation format the whole HARD drive so if you have important files on the HARD drive you back up data.

  In this case, you could remove the laptop HARD drive and it could connect to another computer via the external USB HDD controller to transfer the files to the second computer HARD drive.

• Qosmio F10-132 - HARD drive failure - what HARD drive do I need?

  Hello, my hard drive is down, I have to find another, on the external drive only from the web of toshiba 2.5 are available!

  the HARD disk must be an IDE? not a SATA?

  you, changed your? where to find it?

  Thank you

  Hello

  AFAIK the Qosmio F10 needs SATA drives
  I think that you should find these information in the user manual, or here in the forum, use the search option and you will get a few discussions about the HDD F10

  However, these 2.5 SATA HDD can be bought from dealers for different laptop/computer or online (online store).
  You do not need to buy a Toshiba HDD usually, you can use different hard drives from different manufacturers, but the plug of HARD drive be right!

  See you soon

• USB data transfer is very slow on my Qosmio F10

  Hi all
  For some reason, my Qosmio F10 see its 4 hubs USB 1.1 instead of 2.0.
  Whenever I plug a USB key, I get a message that says that I connect a drive high speed in a hub not high speed. Boring!
  The driver version is: 5.0.2.1001 (27.06.2003).
  It doesn't seem to be a USB driver on 'download files' file for the Qosmio on the site of Toshiba UK.
  Of course, I would not upgrade to the wrong driver...
  Any suggestion?

  Hello

  Try to remove all listed USB ports in Device Manager and reboot the device. All ports will be recognized and installed again.

  By the way: as much as I know there is no separate driver for the USB ports and as a result you can't find it.

• Re: Blue screen after using the Qosmio F10 recovery CD

  Hello

  I tried to use the recovery CD (XP) for my fathers Qosmio F10. I chose option 1 to return to the factory default. It seems to work fine but after it's over he says remove the CD and reboot I did. It was then restarted but flashed a blue screen for a split second before restarting. I did not see what is the Blue error screen, as it flashes up too fast. Then, it takes me to the configuration screen and asks me to choose whether to start Windows normally or SafeMode etc. All options give me the same result.

  He said if I choose to boot to the last known good configuration:

  "windows was not start because the following file is missing or damaged:
  \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\config\SYSTEM

  You can try to repair this file by starting windows setup using the CD-ROM Moose
  Select 'r' in the first screen to start repair. "

  Of course, I do not have an original Windows CD, I just the recovery CD.

  I checked to spit on the disc but its perfect.

  I have a complete backup of all of the HDD on an external USB disk if that would help?

  Don't know what to do next?

  So just in the summary;
  You have checked the RAM, HARD drive and tried to install the Windows operating system several times but without success

  Well, maybe you should try to boot from a Linux live disc to check if the BSOD appears again?  :|
  How about Windows XP installation by using the diskette in MS Windows.
  It s worth a try

  Last but not lease, you will need to replace the memory modules RAM and HARD drive
  I mean the different HARD disk and RAM tests are useful, but it will not replace tests using new parts
  I think that this should be done by a qualified technician because he could test it before buying spare parts

• Qosmio F10 - broken graphics card

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio F10, but unfortunately the graphics card is broken on it, if anyone knows if it can be repaired without having a new card mother 'expensive '!

  My warranty has expired at the beginning of this year so I'm worried about how much it will cost, all my personal files and data are always on it, so is it still possible to take down them with her still divided?

  I have power get sill on the machine, but nothing lights up the screen and the fan is constantly at full power.

  Hi Paul

  This is a very silly situation, I assume that you will not be able to repair the laptop without a motherboard replacement.
  Set the id of the graphics card on the mobo and it s not possible to easily remove it from the motherboard.

  If you want to save your data and files of ads please remove the laptop HARD drive and connect it to another computer via the external USB HDD controller.
  These external HDD 2.5 case are not expensive and you can buy it in every store of the computer.

• Re: Qosmio F10 - I want to spend 500 GB HARD drive

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio F10 with 60 GB hard drive.
  I want to go to 500 GB internal hard drive.

  Someone please tell me is compatible or I have to use an external hard drive

  I'm afraid that 500 GB is a little too much. ;)
  I can imagine that 200 GB will work well. If you need so many free GBs, it is preferable to use the external option.
  Another thing is that you can external HDD to connect to any other PC to transfer data.
  For me the external solution is more reasonable than the HDD internal.

• QOSMIO F10: works slowly--> upgrade RAM?

  Hello

  I have a qosmio f10

  My laptop works generally slow. What do you think? I think that to put the ram from 512 to 1 GB or 2 GB. Do you know what is the price of the additional Rams?

  Thans all

  Hello

  Well, it's not easy to say why it works slowly.
  Sometimes multiple processes that are run in the context of the operating system can make the camera slowly or a big HDD with many files which is not defragmented.
  But of course a memory low size could also be a problem.

  As far as I know this unit charge max 2 GB of memory and you can update this device with following modules:
  PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
  PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
  1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

  Everything worked fine after the relocation outside the TV in Media Center, there is no option to watch TV in the program, and whenever I try to go into the settings of the TV I get the message "the tuner is defective or not installed.

  Hello

  Have you installed all the updates?
  In addition, the TV tuner driver you will find on the page of the Toshiba driver is designed for MCE. AFAIK the Qosmio player uses the own TV tuner driver.

  The pilot on the Toshiba page has been changed to 08/01/05. It s a 1.0.26 version.
