Qosmio F10 - problem with the motherboard

The chipset of the graphics card is overheating. After not long used the chipset losing conection with PBC and portable with a value of $2500 is nothing (my after 26 months). The cost of the new motherboard is about $900. Toshiba is expected to cover some costs of replacement for motherboard fault. Why do clients have to pay for the mistake of Toshiba? It's not fair. I bought Toshiba laptop because they claim that the quality is perfect. A way of 26 months is this perfect quality?
Thanks Toshiba of such quality. I will recommend your products. Bartosz

Hello

I'm sorry for you and the rift that has happened outside the warranty period. But after 2 years, it may be that a material abandon. It was perhaps better to buy an extended warranty, sometimes it really helps in such situations.
But if I were you I'd just be more anger then rather accept the situation, sell your machine on ebay and buy another. That's the only advice I can give you since toshiba never cover some costs of replacement since then all users who have a machine with outdated warranty wishes to benefit from this service. :)

Welcome and good weekend

    Right, I got my Satellite pro 14 c in July and October 2012 as a gift for education * this year *, every time I moved my laptop, the screen went black, I was not able to see the screen AT ALL.

    It's OK for a few weeks, then in August, he began, I contacted Toshiba in England and in a week I finally gathered to ship in Germany and I returned a forthlight later and it worked again, * 5 days *.
    and the problems are back.
    Once AGAIN, I contacted Toshiba and they said that they could not find a problem, _ and they accept it for repair_.

    I brought to 2 techinicans, and they one said it was the motherboard, the other that he couldn't find the problem and then I brought the "Know How" station in a local PC world, and they said his definataly the motherboard... I have a video proof of what happens. I don't know if it is enough to buy another laptop, or to go to the National Office of Comsumer s or has another argument with people clueless in Toshiba.

    Help please! So angry to Toshiba!

    Try to uninstall the software that you have installed right before this problem started for the first time. With a bit of luck, you might find the cause. Otherwise, you can do a final solution a recovery facility.

  • Qosmio G40 - problem with the use of 100% of the CPU

    In recent weeks I have problem like describbed here: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=126670𞻎

    Almost the same thing - my computer starts and works ok, but from time to time is frozen by Symantec Service Framwork and all other descriptions are the same.

    "After having been inactive during these seconds, the cooling fan will start to operate at maximum power, creating a huge noise, that I never experienced before, not even while the CPU was operating at 100% for a while due to other programs." Force a reboot is all what I can do. »

    Almost all accidents that this question was by NIS2008, but also Vista explorer.exe and fingerprinttray service or the service of the Index process.

    I received a notice from the team of NIS that I get to use the new NIS09, and for sure that my machine is damaged - check it out here http://community.norton.com/norton/board/message?board.id=nis_feedback&message.id=6964&quer y.id = 22439 #M6964

    I called the Service, which has changed the ATV and CPU - I changed to NIS09 after, a few weeks was good, but now the problem back - in the last two weeks twice. (I observe that starts about 5 minutes after download of updates to NIS (I know cos NIS 09 indicator of that time).)

    One change - Vista is able to kill that process damaged (Admins have no right to do), starts the process of WeAreFault, which sends information on crash for MS - after about 15 min computer starts to work properly without reboot... so I think that a problem is somwhere on the line between Toshiba and Norton, cos repair also change in behaviour of the machine - is now using work not CPU around 20% - before was 50 to 70% and 100% of crash. Norton is also, but must for this.

    Does anyone have a conclusion?

    Generally, I don't like Norton because he needs as many resources and make the laptop lazy. On the net, you can find very good alternative applications.
    Have you tested how the laptop works after removing the NIS?

  • Qosmio G20 error message: problem with the cooling system has been detected

    I'm trying to fix a Qosmio G20 (which is about 3 years old, it is no longer in warranty).

    Error message: Warning: a problem with the cooling system has been detected.

    I managed to remove the outer case and observe the operation of the machine, and basically one of the fans does not at all. The fan which is closest to the power connector seems to work very well (he seems to be turning a lot, do not know if this is normal), but the other fan who does not seem to move at all.

    When I put in place the case and on the machine, I noticed after a few minutes the vent of the fan working heat sink had warm enough, while led the non-working fan remained cool.

    I cleaned the fan from dust and have also changed the BIOS battery mode mode high performance, but the problem still exists.

    I would be grateful if someone could give advice if the problem is the fan or something else.

    If the fan is the problem, where I can buy a: i live in the United Kingdom?

    Hello

    I think there might be something wrong with the cooling module and the replacement would be necessary.
    Usually, this should be done by an authorized provider (ASP) in your country.

    Technicians could replace it with a new part and also could renew the thermal grease which is placed between the module and the CPU cooling.

    So contact the ASP in your country and ask for later handling.

    By the way; also, you can buy the cooling of the ASP module!

    Good luck

    I'll upgrade my desktop PC, by changing the motherboard, processor and SSD drive with the OS on it to boot. I have a problem with the reactivation of windows, and should I turn it off, somehow first, or the previous version will be considered as-enabled automatically?

  • Problem with the software Modem on Satellite Pro L40

    I tried to set up a connection Dial-Up Networking on a Satellite Pro L40 running Vista and can't get the modem to talk to the modem from the ISP. The connection appears OK and then you can hear the modem dial, but when the ISP picks up there is a bit of yelling and then my modem abandons the connection and I get the standard vista connection failed box.

    Things I've tried:
    -latest drivers for the 2.1.77.0 modem (and the rest of the system) downloaded from Toshiba and installed OK
    -all the updates of windows installed
    -removal of the modem in the Manager of peripherals and re - install
    -suppression of the agrsmdel.exe and then re-install
    -try different cables to plug into the phone jack
    -several different ISPS and phone numbers
    -reduce the maximum speed of the connection
    -connection to the same ISP with my Satellite L10; works very well never have time!
    -using the windows to diagnose and repair the tool (set last resort!); says that the modem works fine and can not find a problem with the connection

    Is it possible that the update of the BIOS on the laptop would make a difference (currently v 1.60)? I did some research on Google and found messages on various forums, which suggests that the connection between the motherboard and the modem chip is a little doubtful for all the Agere Soft Modem; If the case is it something I can fix myself or I should go for warranty repair?

    Midders

    Hello

    I'm sure that there is no problem with your modem, but with the configuration or even s ISP modem. I recommend you to speak with the support of the ISP.

  • Satellite Pro L20-someone ' one can tell me if I have a problem with the screen?

    Hello

    I have a Pro L20 - PSL25E and I recently had problems with the screen, it was intermittently flickering/lose color and whiting almost (when the color fades white vertical lines begin to appear).
    This seemed to worsen after that I dropped it (only from about 2 feet off the ground, not a big drop).

    I thought that the sceen can go, but the performance of the laptop seems to be affected when this happens, the laptop started to run very slow (tracks mouse slowly, programs I clicked take ages to run and it freezes sometimes to stop flashing) that had me thinking that it might be a virus or performance problem.

    My screen, drivers are updated, I did a full scan with McAfee, ran a clear-up system and a Defrag.

    I was wondering if anyone knew if it seemed to be a problem with the connections of the screen and would need replacement or if it could be repaired or if it were a performance problem?

    Any help would be great thank you appreciate!
    Rebecca.

    Looks like the graphics chip has a problem, which I think is a motherboard replacement.

    You can get a quote for repair to an authorized service provider. There is a list of ASP on the Toshiba site.

  • Satellite A660 - message: WARNING: a problem with the cooling system

    My laptop recenly started giving the error "Warning: a problem with the cooling system has been detected." Please turn off computer immediately and return it for service"- Yes the fan had stopped working and touchpad area was hot.

    So I take it on the type of service (toshiba) and must answer for fan, Mo, HARD drive, he said. Is this possible? -J' I have extended warranty, but is ' t it much? not to mention that it takes a month to get things down.

    He also mentioned that I could use the machine with a cooling pad until then if I wish.

    Any feed back?

    > Yes the fan had stopped working and touchpad area was hot.

    In this case, there is really a hardware problem.
    But I m wondering why he should replace the HARD drive and the motherboard
    Perhaps only the cooling module began at malfunction of course this is just a speculation
    If the technician has checked the material, then they need to know what parts are not OK.
    So don t think you have no choice.

    But the guarantee is valid for all is free
