• Qosmio F20 with Vista: display is not wake up from sleep/standby

  I hope someone can stop pulling my hair out - please!
  I have a Qosmio f20-136 that I upgraded to 2 GB of RAM. I managed to install Ultimate Visa on what actually works very well. I get a score of 3.4 Visa which means Aero works very well. The lowest score of void is actually the CPU (the 1.6 GHz Pentium M) with following 3D graphics to 3.9 with the Geforce Go 6600.

  However, I have an annoying problem.
  Hibernate works very well - he hibernates and returned very well. I have the power button set for the Hibernate now and also in the start menu power button.
  If I close the lid it goes to sleep and when I opened the lid it picks up perfectly. There is the sound of a device connection / disconnection when I open and close the lid.

  However, here's the problem. I would like to use the power button to sleep rather than hibernation and I don't want to wear and tear on the hinges of the screen by keep opening and closing the lid. So, I tried to set the power button to sleep and also tried selecting sleep in the start menu options. In both cases, the machine goes to sleep but then a problem when I try to resume.

  The powers of the machine upward but the screen is black. Everything is alive, but I don't see anything.
  If I unplug the power cable and plug again (which changes the brightness of the screen), then it comes to life. If I close and re - open the lid, it comes to life. Nothing else he raises.

  Some would say that I'm picky because I'm almost there with vista, but I dearly would solve this issue. Can anyone help please.

  Currently using the video driver 97.52. I installed the added G30 package (without the energy control) that works. FN buttons not working (although the multimedia keys - if anyone has a solution for that I wouldn't be thrilled!.) I tried support button for the G30 but does not work).

  Please help if you can.

• New driver for Qosmio G20 with Vista installed

  Hello

  There are new drivers for Qosmio G20 with Vista installed.

  Right now, it's Nvidia Video 169,25 version of the driver for Windows Vista.
  No blue screen after installing this driver, at all.
  I think that this new driver will solve the following problem:

  * Power failure screen after you have closed the lid on Vista *.

  You can try it, remembering that the installation must be handwritten. And you must choose the graphics card Nvidia Geforce 6600, during installation.
  Download here:

• Qosmio F20 and Vista Ultimate

  I would like to know if anyone knows when Toshiba will create all the necessary drivers for this model running windows Vista ultimate.
  Can someone give an answer? Thank you.

  Hello

  I can't answer you that, but I'm afraid that it won't happen. As you know Vista is already longer than one year on the market and if Toshiba didn't offer drivers up to now I n t believe this will happen in the future.

  In any case, I'm sure you can find the drivers somewhere on the net. I mean the graphics or sound driver. You can also try to use the value added packages or other tools of some other models Qosmio Toshiba.

  I don't have a Qosmio F20 and cannot test it but if you have a game for a little time with her.
  I'm sure you can make it work well.

• Drivers and utilities for Qosmio F20 running Vista

  Hi, I had a Qosmio F20 (PQF20A) computer laptop running Windows Vista

  None of the drivers and original utilities were installed, and none of the function buttons/keys work.

  Some drivers, I was able to install through update (Device Manager) and Toshiba Support

  I looked up support for public services and the only drivers/utils available are for * XP * ONLY

  When I try to install the Modules or controls or any other Vista drivers/utilities it stops and says "TVALZ Driver Installation Failed" and then "driver blocked due to incompatibility, for more information, contact Toshiba... »

  Can't find anything relevant on the Toshiba site. I looked towards the top of Toshiba in various regions for support...

  There the drivers/Utils for Vista?
  Help, please!

  Hello

  Unfortunately, the Toshiba Vista tools or utilities for Qosmio F20 don t it.
  As far as I know the Qosmio F20 series and the G20 have been designed and equipped only with the XP operating system and so Vista drivers were not released.

  You can try to search for some unique drivers on Internet sites s chip maker but features such as the control keys or the FN buttons will not work with Vista :(

  Good bye

• Qosmio F20 - what Vista should I install? -> 32 bit or 64it

  Hi, can someone tell me if I should install Windows Vista Ultimate 64 or 32 bit on a Qosmio F20?
  Thank you
  Phil Bell

  Yes. You must choose the Vista 32 bit. It makes no sense to install Vista 64-bit.
  In addition, the majority of drivers are designed for 32-bit Vista
  32 bit OS is a good choice

• Problem installing XP on Qosmio G50 with vista preinstalled

  Hello everyone, just joined, and after a few navigation that I think will like this place.

  I just purchased a Qosmio G50 10 with preinstalled Vista and I want to install XP on the second hard drive to have the double-boot. It starts good but after it finishes loading the drivers etc, it says "starting windows" and then I get a blue screen.

  The installation CD is good. This laptop is new on the market and there is not much info on it.

  Even Toshiba doesn't have drivers to download.

  Read here and elsewhere indicates that a driver problem might be the cause, but I need help.
  Thank you.

  As far as I know if you want to install Windows XP Home edition on the new laptop models, you MUST use Windows XP Home SP2 installations CD edition. Please test and validate the results.

• Vista on Qosmio F20: SD card reader and Media Player keys do not work

  I recently updated my Qosmio F20 for Vista.
  I got most of the job functions, but my SD card reader and fixed keys for media player still haven't.

  I can't find the drivers for them (I don't think they exist for a F20) so I was wondering if anyone had a solution.

  Thank you

  Hi faarn

  You can't find the Vista drivers as Vista don t drivers is on the page of Toshiba. Some people have posted a link to the official document on the units of Vista support and the Qosmio G and F20 was not on the list.

  But another clue. Check the drivers in another series as F30 or G30. But the chances are small that the pilots will run

• Qosmio F20: How to add a second HDD

  Hi all, my first post, so be nice!

  I recently bought a new Qosmio F20 with unique 60 gig HD. I realize now after a month, I need much more space, it will add a second 120 GIG HD. My question is, is this easy to do? How can I do? Is there a couple of screws to undo and just pop in? Also is there a certain type of HD necessary?

  Sorry for the questions of basic but this is my first laptop.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  As far as I know that it is not possible to use two hard disks on F notebook series as on G series, delivered with two hard drives. In my opinion that the best solution is to use external USB connected HDD. On this way, you can use notebook HARD drive 2.5 in aluminum case.

  Google a bit and you will find many of them with a different ability. I use a 60 GB external HDD back up all my data.

  Good bye

• Qosmio F20: wireless keep disconnecting

  My laptop is Qosmio F20 with WINDOWS MCE
  My router is USR 9108 with security on the wireless network using WPA - TPK and TKIP and AES data encryption...

  Can someone help me please because it's really annoying me?

  Hello

  Have you tried to update the driver WLan? If this is not the case, do it!
  Try to download the latest version of the driver. If the driver Toshiba page does not the latest one please check the card WLan manufacturing site; Perhaps Intel or Atheros.

  Another clue
  Have you tried to disable encryption and to test the performance? It and if anything does not work you can set it back again once!

• Qosmio F20-111 PCI TV Tuner for Vista

  I have a Qosmio F20-111 and I can't find the driver Toshiba PCI TV Tuner for Windows Vista on page drivers in this Web site. The XP driver is not compatible with Vista. Is - a Vista driver exist somewhere? Can I use the tuner TV on Windows Vista?

  Hello

  You can't find the driver Vista because Vista is not supported on this series laptop. As far as I know that Vista is supported since the series Qosmio G30/F30 and early models Qosmio don t support Vista.

• 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:
  For example this one:

• Qosmio F20: I can't complete this NVIDIA GeForce Go 6600 for Vista driver

  Dear Francisco,
  All the friend when I install this driver. It always shows me the message CE DRIVER INCOMPATIBLE WITH THE MATERIAL. Then I try to click the yes button to try again. The installation was carried out, but when I restart the machine then the message appears again. And it is not finished to install the driver. What should I do? I have used the toshiba qosmio F20.
  Here is the message from the print screen.

  http://www.sendspace.com/file/fjvbca

  Thanks for any response.

  Hello Nera,

  I can't find a reasonable explanation for what is happening on your machine. This driver should work with the Geforce go6600.
  The only thing that is different of the G20 is the amount of video memory it uses. G20 comes with 128 MB of video memory and F20 comes with 64 MB.
  It is a potential conflict, but I'm not sure about this to 100%.

  Well, let's say it all over again:
  1 are you sure that your model uses the Geforce go6600 or it uses the FX5700? I know most recently F20 models use the go6600 64 MB.
  2 do you have removed all traces of the old nvidia XP driver that you installed initially?
  3. or, another option, you have performed a clean installation of Windows Vista on your PC? and then I tried to install the nvidia driver? This is important.

  Please, do a right-click with the mouse on any part of the screen and click on customize, open the properties of the adapter, take that screen and post it here.
  As you can see in the following image:
  http://www.rabayjr.com/Vista/qosmioadapter.jpg

  Then, open devices, properties of the graphics card, driver manager
  As you can see here:
  http://www.rabayjr.com/Vista/qosmioadapterdrv.jpg

  Need to know what is informed about these two entry screens.
  Mainly the the BIOS version of your nvidia graphics card
  Let me know

  I'll try to find other Windows Vista drivers for your model.

  The problem is that I don't have a F20 with me right now, to check it out and fix it for you.

  Francisco
