• Installation of Vista on Qosmio F30 - 112-> BIOS is not compatible

  Salvation;

  I am trying to install Windows Vista, but it is said that "Windows cannot be installed on this computer with the current version of the system BIOS.
  Contact your computer manufacturer for a BIOS update, install the update and then restart Windows installation".

  I checked the Toshiba download page and, unfortunately, update BIOS for F30 is not available at this time but I hope it will be here very soon.

  From time to time check http://pc-support.toshiba-europe.com/vista/ to see if your laptop model is listed.

  BIOS v1.30 for QOSMIO F30 is not compatible with Windows Vista. Do not upgrade this computer to Windows Vista, unless you first update THE system BIOS. Contact your computer manufacturer to see if an update is available.

• New update of added value package is available for Qosmio F30-140

  Hello everyone.

  I was wondering if Toshiba had released a new version of package of added value that is compatible with Windows Vista 64-bit for Qosmio F30-140?

  To check, if Toshiba published new versions of the extra value package, drivers or BIOS, refer to the following page:

  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com (Support & downloads)

  But, in my view, that nothing new has been posted, yet.

• Update BIOS on the Qosmio F30 - ACPI problem

  I've updated the BIOS on my Toshiba Qosmio F30 - 140 and I have issues with the management of ACPI.

  When I try to run Ubuntu 9.04 or 9.10, I see constantly typed characters - "^ [[B ', which cancel all important processes.
  When I add "acpi = off" option to GRUB the problem seems not apear, but I do not have access to important features (like changing the brightness of the display). How to solve this problem?

  Hi Kojot89,
  first: "never touch a running system", but you already know...

  with this new bios, you have enabled some features of the motherboard...
  Try this:
  -turn off acpi in the bios mode, if possible
  -patch your kernel to use the acpi features
  - or disable the use of the features of acpi by boot-cheats

  as you say the problem doesn't exist when starting with "acpi = off".
  display brightness and the cooling of the processor are the main features of acpi to save energy, if your kernel can not handle
  check_acpi_ignore = 1 might be a way to make it work

  way the easiest way is to reinstall the system...

• Qosmio F30 - installing the new hard drive

  Hello

  I just installed a new hard drive on my Qosmio F30 - he came originally only with a 60 GB hard drive.

  The second disc is identical to the first in every way, i.e. of 60 GB drive Toshiba.

  I initialized the new drive and it also shows online and unallocated. I want to use the reader to basically increase my quality, not like a mirror and so chose this option using the RAID Utility.

  However when I expelore the C drive, it shows than the total capacity of the drives as 60 GB. I guess that both drives should be showing as a player, like 120 GB.

  The drive works properly?

  Thank you

  Hello

  You can check in the BIOS if the second HDD is recognized correctly

  As you say you don t want to use a mirror mode, but then you must set the RAID0 stripping!

  Please also check the settings of the BIOS RAID!

  At page 242 user manual you will find all the details on the different options and what they are for

  Greetings

• Qosmio F30-111: no sound after the update of the 3.40 BIOS & Vista installation

  Hello!

  I have a Qosmio F30-111, originally with Windows MCE and all devices works fine, but I made an update of firmware BIOS to 3.40 (before was a version 1.x).

  Later, I installed Windows Vista Ultimate and all devices has been recognized very well (with Toshiba Vista drivers), but the sound was not working!
  The situation was:
  -The sound device has been recognized;
  -The MIC works (but I can't hear it);
  -The speakers do not work!<- the="" real="">

  Now I installed the recovery CD and I'm new to Windows MCE, but noise have the same problem... is recognized, but the speakers do not work.
  I have no idea what to do... I don't know if it is possible to restore the firmware (I think that was the problem).

  Don't forget: the audio device works, the works of Media Player, but I can't hear the sound (Yes, the volume is high and is not dumb)

  Sorry for my bad English,
  Thank you very much!

  Murilo

  Hello Md2

  You can hear the noise if you plug headphones into the audio?

  If there is his helmet and then the audio device works well.

  If not, then disconnect all devices external usb and start a clean installation of vista (not upgrade, but booting from the vista cd)

  don't forget to put the RAID driver on cd or diskette or usb flash key before doing the clean install of vista.

• 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!
