  Hello

  You can order the adapter antenna at the Toshiba service partner in your country.

• Lost my CD of restoration for Qosmio F20-111

  Hello

  I lost my CD of restoration of my Qosmio F20 - 111

  I tried to order on the internet but got the message that he was old.

  Can someone find me on the internet or tell me am I get a new one?

  I assume that you will need to contact the ASP in your country to get the Toshiba Recovery CD. The European Toshiba backup online store would provide the recovery CD only the most recent series of laptop.
  To get an older recovery CD, you need a help of ASP.

  Hello

  I put t know what is happen on your laptop and why the pilot does not, but on the Toshiba driver page, you will find two TV tuner drivers: one for Windows XP and the second to Win MCE.

  Do not forget that you are using the correct driver.
  In addition if you don t use the Toshiba Recovery CD if you need to install the drivers of Toshiba and utilities in the correct order. It is very important. On the driver page, you will find the installation instructions.

  Please follow this guideline.

• Qosmio F20 RAM

  Hi all!

  What type of ram to the Qosmio F20 and the pin count module´s? I know that Toshiba use Kingston ram, but can I use another brand for a second module, as viking?

  Thank you!!

  Hi Dijacy,

  I believe that the type of RAM you need is 200 pin DDR2-533 SODIMM.

  In theory, you can use any brand of RAM module, but obviously some of the lesser known brands have not been tested to work with your laptop. You can be lucky and find that they work perfectly, but you can find lost messages from people who have had problems.

  If in doubt, then I would stick to the components tested such as Kingston.

  Good luck

• Main problems after upgrading from XP to Vista on Qosmio F20

  I have recently upgraded from XP to Vista on my Qosmio F20 and having problems. It seems that I lost the ability to change screen resolutions, to adjust the volume, brightness, etc. Basically, I lost the laptop functions. I also tried updating the BIOS but get the following error message "BiOS update only is not supported OS - unsupported OS or service pack installed.»

  This also makes very slow computer.

  You now have a few questions, or you wrote just a report on your experience of Vista on Qosmio F20?

  The fact is that Toshiba does not support Vista on this laptop model and thereby you will ever complete Vista of operation (including the Toshiba tools and utilities). For supported laptops, Toshiba offered special Vista supporting BIOS but for your laptop, this update of the BIOS does not exist.

  Sorry! :(

• 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?

• 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 advance

  Hello

  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.

• New installation of Windows XP Home edition on Qosmio F20 - sound card errors

  Hello

  I am one of those who is very reckless on internet and download a lot of spam and viruses along the way. I keep, but I'm also obsessive compulsive on the backup of my important files, so when my computer flip out on me, I just wipe it clean and continue!

  I stick to windows XP because some software I use still does not work on Vista, and I also install a completely new copy of XP instead of recovery as bundles of Toshiba with my laptop. Why? Because I lost it...

  Anyway, I've been tracking the drivers to get the last bits of the material work and all seem to work well! The only problem I have is with the (Yes, you guessed it!) sound card driver!

  I have a Qosmio F20 and have no idea of what sound card is actually inside this thing, I have always used SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio drivers and they do most of the work very well, but they seem to have problems when I try to use Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 and Soundbooth. Both programs complain that there is no sound card and then refuse to open,

  As far as I know, the driver that I use is by 'Analog Devices' and v5.12.1.5240. I don't know if it's really any help at all!

  Does anyone know which driver is correct to use and where to find it, or is the fault, I have just an inevitable?

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  Hello Pav

  Have you installed Windows XP Home with Service Pack 2 included?

  On the Toshiba download page, there is a driver available and I do not understand why you think that this is not the right one. The same driver will be installed if you use recovery CD/DVDs.

• Qosmio F20 reformatted with WXP - missing drivers

  Hey guys, I have a Toshiba Qosmio F20, I bought 3 years ago and its running fine until a few weeks back, when he just wouldn t getting started, things would turn out, but when the Windows XP register you domes I get a blue screen and all of a sudden, he stops and restarts... so I managed to install Windows XP Professional on it everything works fine now, but I couldn't t get connected to the internet.

  One of my friends told me that I had to reinstall the hardware drivers, so I thought that if I went to control panel > performance and maintenance > hardware devices > I see a list of equipment that had few points of exclamation by them, the list contains the following items:

  1. Ethernet controller
  2. Mass Storage Controller
  3. multimedia Audio Controller
  4. multimedia video controller
  5. network controller
  6 PCI Modem
  7. video Controller (VGA Compatible)

  In one of them if I go to the properties, all the information on there are "unknown", as the driver provider: unknown, the hardware manufacturer: unknown... If anyone has the manufacturer and the name of the hardware on my list, please post them, I really need this phone working in the next few days, go for Christmas...

  Thank you very much
  Redding.

  If you get a recovery disk with your laptop, use the disc.

  On the recovery disk Toshiba are all drivers and Toshiba tools include. Then you n t need to download and install each driver.

  But when you want to do this or lost the disk, you can download the Toshiba site:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  I always use the Toshiba recovery disc for my Toshiba laptop, and it works perfectly. So I save a lot of time and work.

• Qosmio F20-136: someone tried Tv Software such as GB - PVR?

  I have a Qosmio F20-136 with media Center, but due to the fact that I lose permanently the TV signal on digital channels, I was going to try free software GB - PVR tuner that I tired trying to use Media Digital Center. I have a perfect antenna signal that crosses a digibox on my main TV together but not satisfied with the Qosmio tuner.

  Someone else used the alternative free GB - PVR software successfully?

  Mike

  Hello Mike

  Since a few days, I also F20 and I have no problem with the TV signal. I tested it with cable and satellite receiver. It works fine, but it will be interesting to know if there is something new that can be put to the test.

  What you think of GB-PVRI put t know if it supports the TV on Qosmio F20 tuner.

• Decent analog output of my Qosmio F20-154

  I use my Qosmio as a Microsoft Media Center with my TV connected via VGA output. It gives me a pretty good image.

  However, my TV does not support most of the modes of zoom for VGA; or it does for DVI or HDMI.

  So I tried the image output via S-Video - which produces a shitty and unacceptable photo.

  Unfortunately, Qosmio has no TV output, so I can't try it.

  So, does anyone know of a piece of hardware that can be used to make the Qosmio to produce a decent analog output, such as TV-Out (antenna) or Composite?

  Thanks in advance,
  Brian

  As far as I know you have only two options to send the video signal.

  Qosmio F20 supports viga video and s-video ports.
  So either you will use the video VGA (15-pin) port or output video super TV (S-Video) 4pol mini to connect the TV to the laptop...

  I have connected my laptop to the TV also using the s-video port and the photo quality is OK.

  Please check you s-video cable and if possible test another in addition, I would recommend check some settings on the TV and s-video option
