• Qosmio F20-136 - Question about installing Linux in virtualization

  I have Windows XP MCE 2005, Ubuntu 8.10 & openSUSE 11.0 on my laptop F20-136 (triple boot).

  I intend to:

  0 save the partition Windows XP MCE 2005
  1. remove all the.
  2. install openSUSE w / Xen Virtualization.
  3. then create virtual machines to run backup Windows XP MCE 2005, new 8.10 of Ubuntu and other linux distributions.

  The questions are:
  1 F20-136 requires Windows XP MCE 2005 as its main operating system?
  I ask this question because I noticed that when I disable the builtin speakers in XP, I can't turn them on when I boot in openSUSE.
  So it seems to me that XP with Toshiba drivers and other software on Toshiba system has complete control over the material.

  2. will it affect Qosmio player?

  3. is there any other software virtualization is better than openSUSE w / virtualization Xen?
  I know MS Virtual PC, VMWare, VirtualBox.

  Please note that probably I don't want Windows XP MCE 2005 + virtualization (which will be my last option). I would like to have virtualization using Linux, openSUSE preference as he impressed me with his ability to (fast start/stop<= 45="">

  After further investigation, I think of virtualization VirtualBox which offers a bare metal solution, i.e. without operating system host is necessary.

  VitualBox (hypervisor) layer can be installed directly on the hardware, and then the virtual machines can be created for different operating systems.

  In this spirit, I have queries:

  Say I back up the entire hard drive (just in case the plan everything is the draw, I would restore the image of the entire hard drive), delete the contents of the entire disk, install VirtuaBox.

  1. let Qosmio player as well, which by my understanding, is 10 GB of free space somewhere on the hard drive?

  2. I would be able to install XP MCE recovery disk to create a virtual machine?

• Qosmio F20-136: how to check the temperature of the CPU?

  someone knows how can I check what temperature turns or a program that will tell me and also is it possible to adjust fan settings?

  I have a Qosmio F20-136

  Hello

  You can find in the management tool of power under the method of cooling setting of the cooling fan.
  Try to set it to the lower level. I know that cooling fan is sometimes too loud, but you must know that you have high technology with powerful hardware components unit. Material is placed on the square and must be properly cooled to avoid damage.

  I really put t whether a tool can show you the temperature of the CPU. Check in the advanced search if you can find a similar topic. Long ago, I read the discussion on this subject.

• Qosmio F20-136: I have no restore CD?

  The Qosmio F20-136 laptop comes with a Windows CD I can't find one, don't know if its just on the recovery CD, but I think remember me there used to be a Microsoft Map with etc product key, I do not see to be able to find a.
  Thank you

  Hi Mike

  AFAIK the recovery CD provided with the device. On this CD, you will find a ghost image that includes a Windows operating system, drivers, and other applications as a Note.
  The product key for a Note that you will find on the cover of the recovery CD. In addition, you don't need to activate the Windows operating system because the imgages Toshiba are already activated.

  But maybe you have to create this image of yourself. In this case using Toshiba, you will find a function to burn clean recovery Image

• Qosmio F20-136: how to install the software update for DVB TV device?

  Hi, I used the update all the drivers for my qosmio f20 136 11/07/06 and received various pilot updated on the list.
  The file called TV-TUNER-QF20-XPMCE-103250526 at startup allows the pilot to TV TUNER directory listing and seems to be once I was the driver under System section and selected update driver and select this directory.

  My question is the another file called DVBTAHYB-QF20-XPMCE-1051340 when I click on the file that I just get a list of files, when I try the My TV driver update and choose this directory it won't find anything, does anyone know how to install that to update the file. The download list says they are two updates of tv pilot.

  Maybe Toshiba could include a text file explaining in detail how to install these files? Can anyone help please. And nobody knows which file to copy to save a permanent channel registration, so I could re install the file in the directory so lost the complete channel list?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Maybe I understood something wrong, but according to the prudence shown on the Toshiba download page, the TV-TUNER-QF20-XPMCE-103250526 driver is designed for the range of models between F20-101 and F20 - 135.
  Are you sure that this disc is designed for your computer model laptop too?

  Have you tried to install the update of dvbtahyb-qf20-xpmce-1051340 when the original pilot of the TV (factory settings) is preinstalled?

• Qosmio F20-136: scanned TV guide channel - save the file so you can recharge?

  I have a Qosmio F20 - 136 running XP Media Center. My question is does anyone know the name of the file that has the channels scanned so that if I do a re scan and don't get all channels from the list, because of my reception antenna I can re - load the file on the system with a complete list?

  What happens, if I make a new analysis of the channels of television at home I don't get that nearly 20 tv channels, but if I take the laptop to work, where I guess it's a better reception from the transmitter, I travel 35 channels found. I would like to save the file when its 35 channels scanned and have the opportunity to replace it in the directory, if I do a re scan at home.

  Thank you.

  Hello Mike

  Your validation list is very impressive and you should be an expert Qosmio. ;)
  I have F20 too and I also noticed that I can't watch all the channels available on cable TELEVISION here at home.

  Have you already found something interesting about it?

• HDD upgrade on Qosmio F20-136

  I have a Qosmio F20-136 with about 60 GB hard drive, I see that new models now have more than 200 to 320 GB of HDD.

  Does anyone know what updates are available for the hard drive for my machine, because I want to increase the size.
  Thank you

  You will have no problem with 120 GB.
  The problem is that you won't find a Toshiba official information on the size of HARD drive compatibility.
  You must test several sizes. In any case, for now I didn t find any laptop computers with a single internal 320 GB HDD and as mentioned by James s not sure what the BIOS does not support this large size of HARD drive.
  So if you want to use a HDD larger than 120HDD you should test it before you buy

• Qosmio F20-136: Question about upgrade memory

  I purchased a Qosmio F20-136 with 512 MB of on-board RAM, but wanted to update, so bought additional 512 MB RAM (DDR2) for a total of 1024 RAM.

  I said global PC sales guy I wanted only if the laptop has two slots.

  I took the cap of the other week and only 1 slot is visible to the naked eye.

  I do not go any further.

  Does anyone know if there are two slots or that one meaning that I have to buy a bar of 1 GB DDR2?

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  The Qosmio support two memory locations, and it should be possible to use 2 sticks of memory. You can upgrade the memory for max 2048 MB (2x1024Mo).
  The locations of memory, you will find at the bottom of the unit. To remove the small cover that secures the slot. Also see the user manual. You should also find a detail.

  PS: These modules of memory are supported:

  DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
  512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)

• Can Qosmio F20-136 - I upgrade to Windows 7?

  Hello

  I've owned a Qosmio F20-136 for about 4 years with XP Media Center installed. He and always does a great job despite the 1.6gz processor and 1.5 GB of ram. I was considering upgrading to Windows 7 However after looking I could not find any driver for the model for Windows 7 support.

  Could someone help / tell me about that? Obviously I don't want an upgrade disaster!

  Hello

  To be honest what do you think about upgrading to Windows 7 on a laptop for 4 years?

  In your case I Don t do this upgrade. This computer laptop isn't designed for Windows 7, there are no drivers on the Toshiba site. Just be satisfied with your XP, it runs much faster than Windows 7.

  Never touch a running system! ;)

• Vista drivers for certain things on my Qosmio F20-136

  I have a level of bog F20-136, with upgrade of ram 1 GB.

  I have recently updated for windows vista premium 32 bit os and am having some difficulty finding drivers to use certain parts\service on the machine that were there on the original configuration.
  Vista has done a good job sorting of various parts of the computer, and it is currently very well with all the major parts of the laptop.

  I searched vista support and drivers, but found them is it that only for the series f30.

  I need help drivers\programs to help me with the following...

  -the touchmouse on the laptop (it works fine, but the extra features on this topic for example buttons at the corners, staggered, sliders, etc. do not work)
  -the SD card reader
  -the media buttons on the top of the laptop computer keyboard
  -function key ("FN") does not work when combod with the 'F' keys (for example FN and F7 landed brightness)
  -the main managers of Toshiba (for example ones you change the series of boot etc.)

  That's it, I've noticed so far, so if anyone has any suggestions that would help me, I would be eternally grateful and very happy!

  -A the QOSMIO user very happy.

  Qosmio F20 is not supported by all the Vista drivers.
  I found a list of Vista support units but the F20, G20 was not there.

  But please check a few discussions on laptops Qosmio Vista Forum:
