• Qosmio F30 does not recognize USB devices

  My new Qosmio F30 does not recognize USB devices. Displays Device Manager USB ENHANCED CONTROLLER and ROOT HUB works fine, but the machine still wants to install each device but cannot. BIOS version seems to be V1.30. I tried the devices on other machines, and they work fine.
  Is there something that I missed?

  Hello

  Before your shot the beautiful F30 can you please say what OS you are using?
  Did you use the OS from the Toshiba restore CD?
  On this CD, all drivers must be preinstalled and you don t need to install no matter what chipsets or anything like that.

• Qosmio F30: Can not connect to internet with WiFi safely

  I recently purchaced a Toshiba Qosmio F30 laptop and have spent the better part of two days trying to connect to wireless internet. After constantly call Wanadoo (my provider) and accusing them for all this, I thought that the laptop itself is at fault.

  What happens is when I try to enter my network key (WEP), default is a different key that I can't see that it's all in the points! This continues to be and im am totally unable to enter my network key. Until it is I turn off security on my livebox thingy and connect unsecurely and as I live in close proximity apartments, other people can and probably will connect to my internet, and I am also told that makes me more at risk of viruses and other.

  I apologize for my lack of technical jargon, and that I can not give a more descriptive... uh... description, but I'm just a beginner and not the most in computer science.

  Any help would be appreciated more!... Why is nothing simpler!

  Hi Luke,.
  Have you tried WAP (shared key) instead of WEP.
  In this way, you will need to make your own key instead of having the it generated by the router.
  It is also safer.

  To do this, you must enter the settings of your router (usually http://192.168.1.1 or http://192.168.0.1), enter the password provided by Wanadoo, then click Security. Change the setting WEP WAP (or shared key) and enter a 10digit password then you will need to enter it again when your computer tries to connect to the router again.

  It is best to use a wired connection to change settings, then disconnect the cable and wireless.
  If you notice that you are connected wireless to the router, and your internet connection is dead, temporarily disable the LAN (reactivate when you are satisfied with your connection works). This would happen if your computer includes your wireless network connection to other computers and the wired connection like you internet connection (even if there is no wire connected).

  It is also important to change the administrator name and password to access your router (this would prevent your neighbors children playing to change your settings).
  Let me know if you have more problems.

• Qosmio F30: installed new drivers now no sound.

  I have a Qosmio F30 (PQF32), have just started to use Driver Detective to update the drivers, problem is now I have no sound.
  Control Panel says no. Audio Device, and more when I boot it says new hardware found PCI but can not find the driver.
  Would appreciate any help to restore the sound on my PC... "Not impressed with Driver Detective".

  Hello

  Why you n t back to the first version of driver sound?

  You could do this driver download sound manually from the European pilot of Toshiba page.

  Then delete the old driver from the Device Manager (uninstall) and after rebooting again install the new downloaded driver.

  Usually, it should work!

• Qosmio F30 - how to get started using the external CD/DVD drive?

  Hello Mr President

  I have a Qosmio F30. My CD/DVD drive does not work. I have the USB CD/DVD drive, but I think that F30 does not support external USB CD/DVD drive to boot to the top.

  Please help me. Now, how can I boot Windows XP CD?

  At first, I must say that I really wonder why you do not have something to trade integrated optical drive. Qosmio F30 is not that old laptop and is perhaps the warranty still valid. You should check with the partner of service authorized in your country.

  For start with external peripheral is not so easy because the external drive doesn't recognize started upward. Theoretically you should either external ODD visible to your Qosmio. For older laptop, it is possible if you start Notepad in pilot mode and load BACK to BACK. After doing this you have access to the external hard drive and can start the installation.

  You can do this with your Qosmio laptop?

• Qosmio F30 audio driver for Windows Server 2008

  I'm only running a virtual machine with Windows Server 2008 installed. The server sees my Sound Driver, but it does not recognize it and ask for driver all the time. I tried running the installer of Sound Driver from the CD, but it didn't work, said: not supported operating system. I tried a driver all over the web and I found none. Can someone help to find this driver for me or let me know it it is possible to manually install this driver?

  I will be grateful for any help.

  As you probably know that Qosmio F30 is not designed to be used as a server and general support Toshiba doesn t Server2008. All you can do is to identify the manufacturer of the sound card and try to find the driver on its support page.

  Boyfriend sorry but that s all I can say about it.

  My Qosmio F30-114 runs for years without problem with Vista Ultimate.

  In recent days, there is a huge problem.

  The Qosmio starts with blue stripes during vista boot screen.

  So I deleted the driver for the graphics card and used the standard vga driver for the card. the wizard of material found one driver on the system.
  For a brief moment, I was very lucky.

  After a reboot, there was a blue screen. After the next restard again once the driver to the standard vga card.

  What can I do?

  The download section of toshiba has no drivers for graphics card.
  And really... I wonder - how it works every year without problems...

  Someone at - it a solution?

  Hello!

  First you have this problem on an external monitor too or only on the screen internal? Maybe it s is not a graphics card problem so check it with an external monitor.

  I checked the Web from Toshiba site and I can find drivers for the Qosmio F30:

• HARD drive is not recognized during installation of Windows XP on Qosmio F30 - 140

  Dear alls,

  I'm trying to install winxp on my Qosmio F30-140, but when I boot from the CD and after Setup starts, it shows me a massage like this:
  "windows has not found any HARD drive. Please make sure that you have an and it's probably work and connection very well... blah blah blah... »

  What should I do to install my OS?

  Thank you

  Hello

  your machine has a RAID controller, so before installing windows, you must install the RAID controller before. This occurs after you´ve began installing XP. Then a message on the bottom of the screen will appear that tells you that you must press F6 if you install HARD drive controllers (or something that way).
  You need to install the RAID driver from a USB floppy drive, which can be downloaded here:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  After you have installed the driver for your drive HARD will be displayed, and you would be able to install XP.

• Qosmio F30 - 112 - Windows XP does not recognize the HARD drive

  Hello.

  I have a Qosmio F30-112.
  I tried to install the Windows XP Professional instead of the Media Center edition.
  However, during the execution of the installer, my laptop does not recognize the hard drive. Therefore, the installation cannot continue.

  I thought it might be a problem of corruption with my laptop and reinstalled Media Center Edition successfully.
  But when I try to install XP Professional it always gives me the same error.

  Suggestions for the configuration of the BIOS or solutions for why this is happening?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Just a question:
  You are looking for in this forum for other similar issues with regard to the installation of Win XP and lack HARD drive? I doubt

  The fact is that your notebook has a SATA controller and you need a SATA (Intel Matrix Storage Manager) driver.

  You should have a look here in this doc from Toshiba:
  [How to integrate a SATA AHCI driver into a Windows XP installation CD | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB85017Z0000R01.htm]

• Re: Qosmio F30-131: remote control does not not with Vista Ultimate

  Hello!

  I just installed Vista Ultimate but my remote does not work.
  I reinstalled everything in the right order as written in the command file install on Toshiba Homepage but its always answers don't not under Vista.
  I can just turn on my laptop when its off the remote control.

  Anyone know what to do?

  (PS: I do not have my Toshiba restore CD for Windows XP MCE)

  Hello

  You reinstall the remote control manager? This utility enhances support for a remote control on your computer.
  How about Value Added package? There is a new version available. Try to update it too.

  But back to the basics, the Qosmio F30-131 belongs to the series of PQF30E. Did you choose the drivers for this series?

  However, this laptop has been delivered and pre-installed with Win MCE. Can this remote works only with the XP version of Windows Media Center.

  Hey,.

  Wait a moment, Matt: do you have upgraded to Windows 7 with the new CD/DVD drive or do you have it before you exchanged the drive?

  You get this message from Windows?

  If so, it seems that it s not installed correctly and you should try removing the upper and lower filters in the registry:

• Re: Qosmio F30 - 112 - special buttons do not work after Windows 7 upgrade

  Hello world

  I upgraded my Toshiba Qosmio F30-112 from XP to Windows 7, everything is ok. The only problem is with the buttons its does not work none of them (play, record, stop, pause, BRIGHTNESS-, BRIGHTNESS +, dolby, etc.)

  I installed the value added for windows vista, nothing changed still having the same problem.

  Hello

  There's a PPV for Win 7!
  Of course, you have to look at other portable series which were the VAP for Win 7 has been released.

  Usually does not VAP for Win 7 depend on portable model so I think you could install VAP for Win 7 released for other series.

• Qosmio F30: Toshiba control buttons do not work on Vista 64 bit

  Hello everyone

  I have Windows Vista 64-bit installed on my Qosmio F30, but before operation buttons do not work.
  I tried to use the 32-bit configuration of Vista drivers, but when I press it, I got the following error: "this function not taken in charge.

  So please can someone help me to overcome this problem.

  THX

  Hello

  You cannot use these Toshiba control buttons (play, pause, etc.) because the necessary drivers are not installed.

  You will need a compatible Vista value added package, but it seems that Toshiba page does not provide the 64-bit VAP but only the 32-bit version.
  The problem is that the software for Vista 32 bit does not work on Vista 64 bit OS.

  In my opinion so there's nothing to do right now
