• Qosmio G10-100 - optical drive replacement and IDE01

  I just replaced my optical DVD drive on my Toshiba Qosmio G10-100 with a product number Optiarc AD7543A drive but I get an IDE01 error message at first upward.

  Initially, the optical DVD drive worked later Toshiba does not recognize the drive. All solutions?

  The solution is the use of optical discs compatible. Error IDE is the best proof, you try to use non compatible drive. Compatible dimensions appear in the manuals of the user to page 10-14 s.

• Qosmio G10-100 - failed afer replacement with larger HARD drive HARD drive

  Following a failure in a Qosmio G10-100 HARD drive, I replaced the HD 80 GB IDE current with a 160 GB IDE drive. After execution of the recovery of the DVD, new HARD drive has been formatted and installed the software (later proved by removing the drive and treat as an exterrnal disk on another PC).

  However, on booting, the machine has recognized that it was another hard drive and it wouldn't let me go beyond the screen that offers alternatives (Safe Mode, etc.), nor what would allow me access.

  Sorry mate but I put t understand what you did exactly
  You have installed the Windows operating system on the new HARD drive by using the recovery disk. Right?
  Well, the recovery procedure has completed correctly? The operating system has been successfully installed?

  Did repeat the installation of the OS?
  If this is not the case, repeat!

• Qosmio G10-100: no powerup faulty motherboard

  Hello

  I am trying to remotely diagnose power with my Qosmio F20 girls (she died at the University).

  When she lit yesterday at best she got was the blue power button display and variations of:
  Display completely black - nothing more
  Qosmio screen logo with lines on the screen flicker, followed to a black screen
  Qosmio screen logo glitter with lines on the screen, followed a black screen with blinking cursor.

  Insertion of recovery dvd and starting by f12 key only gave blue button and black screen.

  ESC more power to high gives flickering Qosmio logo, followed by 0000 and blinking cursor on the black screen.

  Some other messages suggest that a new motherboard is necessary.

  Any suggestions?
  What price to provide and install a motherboard?
  This seems to be a common fault - is this common?

  Thanks Colin

  Hello

  The fact that the laptop is a G10-100 and not F20 doesn t change the situation. As Lorelei said if the laptop can not pass by Toshiba or Qosmio screen so there must be a hardware failure. This looks like a malfunction of the motherboard. But to solve it, you should ask for help ASP.

• Drivers Vista for Qosmio G10-100

  Have acquired a portable G10-100 which is under Vista Premium, and commissioning a new hardware found box appears for the mass storage controller. However, I was unable to find the driver for it. I contacted Toshiba who informed me that they don't support probems Vista on older machines! and an online search does not yield no results. Built in multi card reader is a Texas Instruments PC17x21 dedicated Sockets SD/MMC/MS/MSPRO/SM/XD.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Toshiba Qosmio G10 was delivered only with OS Win XP and not Vista.
  According to the official document of Toshiba drivers Vista for G10 series don t exist and which will not.
  I think that you should check the Web site of the (device) chip manufacturing to a compatible driver or test driver Vista released for an another series i.e Qosmio G30

  Good luck

• What size an ssd do I need?

  I propose to use a ssd as my first drive with windows 7/8 pro, Adobe cc and MS office on a PC. I thought I'd then use disk HARD standard for the storage of files, etc.

  What size SSD is necessary to be safe?

  I personally thing 128 GB would be enough if you use an external drive for data. Estimate the 2 GB for each application.

  However if you can afford 256Go, it doesn't hurt to 'future proof '.

• On Qosmio G10 106 HARD drive failure

  I have a G10-106 and you had for about 18 months. About 6 weeks ago, one of the hard drives began to fail - asked checkdisk all the time, and found errors. I have saved and replaced it with my old 40 GB of old toshiba laptop hard drive.

  Yesterday the computer started making strange clicking noises and I assumed it was the fan. Today it is squeal - sounded like a drill. I had checked it by a friend who fixes PC and he said all seemed well and it was a little more quiet - no screeching.
  2 hours later, it seems that the d drive disappeared. I used an adapter and tried to read it in a desktop computer, but it cannot be found.

  Surely if he failed he would always see as a disc? Also is there a way to recover my files? I had everything backed up on this 2nd disk and am now feeling so depressed as it seems that everything has been lost or destroyed. I don't know what to do now.
  Anyone else had problems with hard drives?

  I think buying a new laptop. My last laptop broke after 2 years with graphics and remedial failure could not be a part.

  Hello

  I had HARD drive problem on my old 1900 satellite. One day, that the HARD drive had died suddenly. I wasn't able to boot up the laptop, even in safe mode. The HARD drive makes strange as noise running the Defragmenter tool. Connecting as external HDD on my second phone it was the same situation.

  Autour Googling, I found an interesting also called HDD Regenerator. He found many bad sectors on the HARD disk. If you want to try to do the same thing. I hope that you will be able to start HDD Regenerator because in my case, it was not able until I've erased the two partitions using partition magic.

• Qosmio G10 - 100 video error

  My reports from G10 5mth old "video error - files neede to display video are not installed or not working not properly." Please restart Media Center and/or restart the computer.

  Follow the instructions makes no difference. Anyone know what I need to do? Thanks a lot in anticipation!

  Jon

  Hello

  Sorry, but it is not easy to say why this is happening because your explanation is not good enough. If you use the device without any problem and this message occurs only if you want to start some video files, it may be that this file is the reason for this problem.

  As Meier said try to reinstall the display driver.

• Qosmio G10-100: install second HDD & get the mounting bracket

  I would like to install a second hard drive. Instructions or general advice on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.

  I am looking to buy a HITACHI T7K500 Desktar 2.5 "- 320 GB Interface: SATA 3.0 GB/s serial & parallel Ultra ATA 133." Is it compatible?

  I need help to obtain a mounting bracket for this upgrade or even compatible media information?

  THX in advance,

  Hi Chris

  Sorry, but I think that 320 GB is a bit too much. You n t think so? I really put t think the HARD drive will be recognized by the BIOS correctly.

• Qosmio x 870 WLan driver update needed due to WLan problems

  Hello

  I have this laptop for 3-4 months now, and one of the problems are annoying. My WiFi works good sometimes and on another totally weird days.

  As an example, the indicator shows 3 of 4 bars, but i had no connection. When I start chrome or firefox, nothing does. After a reboot its works normally. My router works with an another old toshiba laptop and my pc.
  I checked with avast and malwarebytes anti my laptop and it should be clean.

  I saw that toshiba updated all the drivers, but they are too many of them. But I don't know which ones do I need to install.

  Are those driver display toshiba even as nvidias packages or something is missing?

  I want to update too, because some games get better performance. Should I use nvidias driver or those provided Toshiba. Another son, I saw that I must update the first intel and NVIDIA driver. Is this fair?

  I tried a few months ago to install this driver on my pc, but lenovo own a pilot too and it didn't work. I don't want to 'destroy' my laptop ^ ^

  I hope someone can help. Sorry to ask again, I have not found good forum :)

  > I saw that Toshiba updated all the drivers, but they are too many of them. But I put t see those that I install.

  You must take the one that is available for the wireless network adapter.
  So what wireless card you have? You can check in the Device Manager in the network adapters box.

  Also its really interesting to know what Qosmio X 870 - xxx you have exactly?

  With regard to the question of display driver:
  This should be discussed in another thread that you have started.

• Install the Qosmio on Qosmio G10-120 player

  Hi all
  I can not install on my G10-120 qosmioplayer.
  I downloaded the driver from the Toshiba C.S.
  When install it from the CDROM and I choose 1 to 'Recover' to the initial state install displaies 'lack of free space on the HARD drive... ". ».
  My G10-120 has two HARD drives and I have unallocked 1200 MB in the second with the pgm of the "magical" partition
  How can I install it? who can help me? Thank you.

  Hi quer

  As far as I know the HARD disk (by Qosmio G10 first HARD drive) at least 100 MB of free space must be available. This free space must be on the end of the HARD drive and there must be unallocated. Can you please try again but this time on the first HARD disk?

  Partition magic is the ideal program to prepare the HARD disk for Qosmio player installation. Please let us know if there is some success.

• Qosmio G20 screen is comatible with display Qosmio G10?

  Hello

  Dose anyone know if the screen Toshiba Qosmio G10 is compatible with the Toshiba Qosmio G20?

  Thank you guys

  Of
  Sweet

  Hello

  I think display of the G20 should be compatible with the Qosmio G10 display.
  I searched a bit and found that the Qosmio G10-100 PQG10E was fitted with the 17 "WIDE XGA LCD.
  The Qosmio G20-101 PQG20E supports the same 17 "WIDE XGA display.

  Therefore, it seems that both units use the same screen.

• Portege 7100 - what size HARD drive it does support?

  Hello

  my old man (I'm a student, so no money for a new) Portege 7100 (ct) has a small hard drive, so I want to shift to a bigger... but what size HARD drive supports the 7100ct? (and that's a 1.8 "or can I use drives 2.5"?)

  thx for any help...

  Hello

  As far as I know that your unit has standard 2.5 "hard drive. Unfortunately there is no public record of such information. Accurate information, you can get that from accredited service partner or even some HARD drive supplier.
  In my opinion, your device must be able to manage with maximum up to 8 or 10 GB HARD drive. For me, we know that some offering it can manipulate the BIOS with special tools and after that BIOS recognize a much larger capacity HARD drive.

  Try to pick up some information on the net service partner or call your country. I believe that consultation service is free.

• What size of HARD drive is compatible with my Satellite A100-771

  Hey guys,.

  is there a size limit of HDD for my A100-771?
  And what type of HARD drive I need? IDE or SATA?

  Thank you very much.
  Eathen.

  Hi dude

  From my experience, the Satellite A100 series was equipped with SATA drives.

  There should be a SATA HDD controller and you can use SATA 2.5 hard drives.

  I think that there isn t disc HARD size limit since the SATA controller is not limited to all special HARD drive sizes

  I think that most SATA HDD must be compatible

  Greetings
