Qosmio F20: cannot get broadband wireless
Hello
I just purchased a Qosmio F20 age of 8 months, and bought a Netgear rangemax wireless router so that I can go wireless. The only problem is, I don't know how!
I bought a wireless card for my old computer (the one that the qosmio replaced) and it was facing up and running in two minutes, so the router is ok, but I don't know how to "go wireless" on an integrated card. I contacted a help forum and they suggested that my wireless card for laptop may not work and to contact toshiba for updated bios?
you tell me how to check and get an update if necessary?
Thank you!
Hello
on the Support pages, you will find BIOS-downloads.
http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_bios.jsp
It is quite simple to find the BIOS for your model, download and install it.
But it is not necessary to get the Wireless LAN to work.
Since you have the old PC to go online with Wifi, you must have at least basic knowledge how to configure the computer to connect to an existing network.
Please tell us what steps you have taken to implement the F20.

Qosmio F20 cannot read CD copy
I need help with this problem > why this CD-ROM on Qosmio F20-138 cannot read any CD copy? Orginal CD is readable.
Is this the CD or driver problem?This ability of problem because Windows XP default CD burning
Try disabling default CD Burning capability
If you have a good CD burning software, you can turn off the CD burning feature. There are two ways to do this:REGISTER METHOD:
In regedit, go to [ntVersion ntVersion\Policies\Explorer] and look for the key "NoCDBurning". Maybe you find there if this is your first time. In this case, create a new DWORD "NoCDBurning" key and set its value to turn it off.ANOTHER METHOD:
Go to your windows Explorer and locate the drive corresponding to the CD - RW drive. Right-click on it and select Properties. In the Properties window, go to the recording tab and you will see and option called "enable CD writing on this drive". If it is selected, deselect it.Restart your computer

Qosmio F750 - cannot get certain functions to work after 8 Win uprgade
I have a Qosmio F750-125, PQF75E.
Since I upgraded to Win 8, using Toshiba Upgrade Assistant I might add, I had a few problems.
Especially not be able to get my Toshiba Blu - ray player to install.Finally I managed, still haven't exactly how, but somehow, to install the latest version 1.0.0.5.70A.
The problem now is that the 3D feature do not always seem to work.
When I open a 3D movie, I get only the image to view side by side, despite clicking 3D button.I tried to update the Nvidia driver (v290) to the latest version v314, available on the Nvidia for my graphics card, GeForce GT540M but whenever I get a message that the driver can not find hardware driver compatible. Eventually leave in the update files downloaded by Toshiba Upgrade Assistant I managed to install the v306. However, I still cannot install v 314, after the "system check" I always get the message that the driver can find hardware driver compatible.
However, 3D does not always work. I noticed that the face detection (SuperD Xtune) does not automatically start with the Blu - ray player when I start or open a 3D file to be read by the Toshiba Blu - ray player, it was.
How can I get my Blu - ray player to replay my 3D correctly.
If I open Xtune I am able to calibrate the 3D, and then it closes.
I don't see an app under all the apps that seem to have something to do with the face detection function.
Is there a setting that needs to be changed, an additional driver must be installed or what?
I'm really disappointed with the support I received from Toshiba themselves on this issue.I also wanted to update the BIOS of my laptop.
My bios version is 2 December 2011, but I noticed that a newer BIOS is available from the Web of Toshiba site dating back to February 2012, if I'm not mistaken.I downloaded but when I run it I get a message that my computer is not compatible.
* Bleep *, it's frustrating.
I want to recover my 3D feature and don't forget to run the most appropriate and most recent drivers at any time.> Above all not be able to get my Toshiba Blu - ray player to install.
> Finally I managed, still haven't exactly how, but somehow, to install the latest version 1.0.0.5.70A.After the upgrade to win 8, you will need to contact the call center Agent for download of the Toshiba BlueRay player to win 8 valuation

If you want to install a driver from nVidia page, you need a folder that contains the driver to the driver files, and then you can update the driver through Device Manager by using the Advanced installation procedure.> I downloaded but when I run it I get a message that my computer is not compatible.
You will find on the page of the Toshiba UE driver BIOS v2.0
The update of the BIOS requires value-added package that must be installed before trying to update the BIOS
Also, the system driver Toshiba to win 8 must be installed.If you will not be able to update the BIOS Win 8 running, you should try updating the BIOS runs only pre-installed Toshiba system Win 7.

Printer cannot find the network. I installed the updates of the printer, still nothing. There is no 'control panel' on this printer that I can find. Someone please help.
Could send you more information on your wireless network? Information such as the type of router and what type of network security you are using would be useful.
If your itinerary is compatible WPS, you can follow these instructions for setting up on wifi:

Qosmio F20: WinDVR black areas during the recording of TV programs
Hello
It is a problem that has bugged me for some time.
When I record a TV show with the Intervideo WinDVR application on my laptop Toshiba Qosmio F20, I get a black box to the left of the image during playback in Windows Media Player from Intervideo WinDVD my recordings.
It seems WinDVR saves an area located to the left of the real TV-signal, which I find awkward. I live in Norway and we have a PAL WinDVR system is configured to save PAL signals. -At least he says so in the configuration options...
Any suggestions on how to fix this, or on other applications of DVR, better to GPL that get better results than of Intervideo WinDVR and who work with the Qosmio TV tuner?
Kind regards

Hello Vegard
I tested the option record just with MCE and everything was ok. Please try it too and let me know how it works on you runit.

The computer is a Toshiba Satellite model PSLB8E-0CK00YEN
l cleaned my vista with my drive, everything works, but the broadband wireless
Which means that Vista has erased my discs, how l can get the disks on my lap top?
Actually - if you have installed Windows Vista from scratch yourself (booted from the Windows Vista support and followed along to do a clean install or use some CD/DVD by default) then you're the one who has erased your disks and all data about them. In any case - your "wifi" does not indicate any wiping. * smile *.
If it's just a simple Windows Vista DVD, then * you * need to get all the drivers for hardware on this computer. You may need to use a different machine (of course) in order to get the proper and then drivers transfer to them for the Toshiba by USB/CD/DVD.
Is this REALLY a Toshiba Satellite L300-20 d? (Click on this link to check...)

Need drivers for the wireless on Qosmio F20
Hi how are you?
I have a Qosmio F20 and I need to go wireless, but I am not able.
I checked the device manager and I only find 1394 Net adapt.
Download any driver from site Qosmio F20?Thank you very much
At the bottom of the unit, you should find a label of the WLan card.
If the WLan card rating fails, I guess that your phone does not support a minPCI wireless network card.As macdreamy1984 has also suggested the card WLan must be listed in the device under network adapters Manager if it has been installed on the laptop

Cannot receive TV signal from my cable box to my Qosmio F20 numerci
Hello everyone, I just bought a new laptop Qosmio F20, everything works well except the tv tuner.
I tried to plug in a cable SCART, a yellow cable / red / white and a cable to an antenna in my cell phone and my digital cable box (Atlanta 5400) but I can't receive any signal.
The best I can get is one second of the sound of the first string on each channel in windows media center.
I work as a computer technician, but impossible to find a solution to this problem, is there something special to do to receipt the TV on my laptop?
Hope to hear soon, thanks to all in advanceHello
Have you used the Qosmio Player or MCE?
As far as I know if you use MCE there is an option to select your TV signal. It must be defined on Satellite.
In addition, please read the manual for this device. Here you can find detailed information, descriptions and images about watching television.In addition, you can view this topic:
