• Qosmio X 300 - GPU overheating

  Hey guys

  So I bought my X 300 in 2009, since then it has been excluded to replace the GPU and the card mother SEPARATED THREE TIMES.
  Once again the weekend over heated and now I cannot use it!

  I have the Toshiba drivers installed, not those of nvidia

  I spray the back air compressed every two days to ensure that it is clean.

  I use it only on my desktop so it has enough space to breathe

  I am absolutely sick and tired of having to send my laptop for repair (still under warranty) and wait weeks for it to be repaired.
  Toshiba will do anything on this subject?

  I don't think that it is good enough to have the same question several times despite my efforts to stop what is happening!

  You are absolutely right. Questions that occur again and again are very annoying and I imagine you are very irritated for this reason.

  Problem is that this question needs to be clarified with the Toshiba authorized service provider. Thay have contact with Toshiba, they can pick up all the necessary info from Toshiba and, of course, they will receive instructions specific to how to handle such problems.

  You hate me now, but I recommend you contact Toshiba new service and try to talk with them about this issues. I can just recommend to be nice and cool.
  Try to avoid any form of conflict, and I hope they will help you with this.

• Blank CD is not recognized in a Qosmio G10 124

  Hello, my g-10-124 plays CDs and DVDs but not to burn or recognize empty CD.
  Answer check activate/properties of the database does not work like Windows XP MCE German does not have this tab.
  Any ideas for Novice?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hey Buddy,

  When did the error first appeared? Installed software at the moment? Perhaps burn some new software or something else?

  Sometimes, a recently installed program may be the reason for these failures with ardour. Another suggestion is to update the firmware of the CD/DVD driver if possible, then check if the same problem persists.

  So, if this is not enough, you can try to reinstall your system and then then just by installing a burning program to see if you have the same error.
  Alternatively, you can try to burn a CD using "UBCD4WIN" (http://www.ubcd4win.com/).
  It s a windows live cd which give´s you the opportunity to test your system without modifying your system. With this tool you can know if it is all relative, or rather a hardware problem.
  Just burn it to a cd, run it and then try to burn a cd with the system which is then loaded into RAM.

  Good luck

• Replacement card mother Qosmio G10

  After replacing the card mother a Qosmio G10-120 original Win Xp MCE with the official update (FC43S1 A5A001749010 P000454980 jury), some problems have arisen:

  1. second HARD drive internal no more seen.
  2. all buttons stop "standby/disable rebooting the computer" do not completely take effect (office closed way unexpected but manual power button continues to show the color blue and portable remains active).
  3. always on cooling fan.

  Upgrade the motherboard consisted of:

  1. creation of new channels DMI Council (in particular "Model name" field was set to "Qosmio G10").
  2. loading the CD-ROM TCN0000006 official update tool.
  3. no recovery BIOS or EC/KBC.

  Any idea?

  I m wondering how you did update the information in the DMI?
  As far as I know that the Toshiba authorised service provider is able to update information DMI as the model name, version number, etc. using utilities and special tools.

  I googled for the motherboard part number, you have deposited in your original thread, and it seems that this motherboard has been developed the Qosmio F15 series.
  So maybe his bad card mother

• Qosmio G10 does not work - some graphic problems

  Hello
  I have a Qosmio G10 a few years back, within the first year of its use the graphics seemed to go crazy after using it for games.
  Since then, I've left the but recently I dug to see if I can get it fixed it as my partner needs.

  1. whenever I start it I have a white screen with sound (I can get the screen each time by pressing F5 (current view).
  2. I tried the system restore cd, but when it finishes I wake a fragmented Windows screen with the beginning bar all over the place, and then it just freezes
  3. However, when I try a professional XP operating system to recover (I found somewhere), it starts up no probs apart from a few blue vertical lines on the screen, starting when I get on the desktop there is no probs although res is set to low and used to move (no graphics driver). Then I tried to load the Qosmio tools & utilities and can support all but the Chipset (that quite fragmented and I have to restart the whole process) and driver nvidia Gforce graphics that I assume will not charge because the chipset?

  I thought it might be a cd of defective recovery but when I changed during a hard drive of new fresh on the wrapper started everthing briefly as it should do this before, he crashed any temptation of power again.

  Pulling my hair out please help!

  Hello

  > 1. Every time I start it I have a white screen with sound (I can get the screen each time by pressing F5 (current view).
  Looks like the screen is positioned on the external monitor and so nothing does not appear on the internal screen laptops. Perhaps this happens because of the changed settings in the properties of the graphics card.

  > 2. I tried the system restore cd, but when it finishes I wake a fragmented Windows start with the bar start screen all over the place, and then it just freezes
  Usually the laptop should start correctly after the installation of the recovery CD. If the laptop freezes then a hardware problem is possible.

  > 3.

Then I tried to load the Qosmio tools & utilities and can support all but the Chipset (that quite fragmented and I have to restart the whole process) and driver nvidia Gforce graphics that I assume will not charge because the chipset?

  In my view, your graphics card could malfunction. I come to the conclusion because the laptop works ok until the graphics driver will be installed. Without graphic driver installed the laptop seems to run I think GPU dysfunction could also be the reason why the laptop does not start correctly after the installation of the recovery CD. The restore CD already contains the graphics driver that controls the graphics card chip

  So in my opinion, you should contact the ASP in your country for a control of the laptop.
  Maybe the technicians could find the fault.

  Good luck

  Hello

  Self-monitoring analysis and Reporting Technology (or S.M.A.R.T.) is a technology that allows a PC to in some cases predict future failure storage devices. This SMART technology is present in your drive, but by default is set to off on your drive. To use the feature S.M.A.R.T. would require you a software (or BIOS) which allows and monitors the Smart status of your hard drive.

  HARD disk speed is unfortunately unknown to me.

  I'm sure that the TV tuner is set to Pal if you will buy it in the United Kingdom and may not be changed for NTSC.

  Qosmio G10 106 has 4 x USB ports and Bluetooth is not available.

• Reflecting display Quosmio G10-124?

  I made very good experiences with all portable Toshiba before and I think the new book of Quosmio might be one good idea for another.

  But in some German testreports could be criticized, Quosmio G10-124 have a reflective display (Stiftung Warentest 5/2005). Is this true? Have all laptop Quosmio those reflective screens? Or y at - it an improvement? Thank you!

  Hello

  Since last week, I got a new Qosmio F20. In my view, the screen is brilliant. Screen is bright, clear and graphic illustration is very well defined. Little time: the display is perfect.

  Good bye

• Video error on Qosmio G10 since the new software

  Hello world

  I have a problem with my MCE LiveTV. When I want to watch live TV, then always comes this error:

  "Error video - files neede to display video are not installed or not working not properly." Please restart Media Center or restart the computer.
  When I follow this order, nothing changes.

  I have this problem since I installed new software on my Qosmio G10 yesterday. It's called Magix Video deLuxe 2005/2006. When I uninstalled the new software, Live TV still does not work.
  It only works when I have sett my computer back to the time where I have not yet installed Magix Video deLuxe. But then I can't use the new software.
  I also tried to reinstalled the video driver and the TV Tuner, but the error is still there.

  What can I do now? Please help me

  I would say that the software that you install is not compatible with Windows MCE. It is possible and the cause likley. If you have all updates for windows and Magix Video and it still does not work then the problem is with the software application and the no compatibility. The fact that it works before and after roll you back OS proves it.

  What are you actually trying to do with the Magix software that Windows can't do?

• Software missing to get TV on Qosmio G10

  Hello

  My Qosmio G10 has just been repaired.
  I'm getting following error message when you try to use the TV feature:
  "the files needed to display video are not installed or they don't parpadean not correctly: restart the PC.

  Thus, some software are missing: which driver or SW? I couldn't find a good answer by browsing the full FAQ.

  Any help welcome, thank you.
  Polog

  Hello

  It would be very interesting to know what that means.
  Unfortunately, I put t speak French :(

  But I can speculate. I think that the TV tuner driver could not fail.
  This driver, you can find on the page of the Toshiba driver. You can try to reinstall.

  But why the message in French? Have you used a French OS?

• Lack of graphics Qosmio G10

  Hi guys,.

  I have a problem with my Qosmio G10 with graphics. Image on the screen is completely wrong. Pictures on the screen are distributed in different places that appear in different points of the screen. This bug begins just after power on the laptop.

  For example the QOSMIO logo is shown in different points of the screen in the following mode:
  In left hand side of the screen are part of M, I and O, then BONES and part of M, then to the right of the screen are Q that is cut to the two parties and the left side of the o.
  All things are displayed in the same way.

  Pleas help me with that, if that's possible?

  I thank in advance

  Hello

  It s very sad to say but it looks like a graphics card problem!

  In this case, you will need to contact the ASP in your country for assistance. I guess that the motherboard needs to be replaced because the GPU chip is fixed on the Board of Directors and cannot be eliminated in the unique setting.

  I hope you ve purchased a new extended warranty because the replacement of the motherboard can be a bit expensive :(

  Contact the technicians and ask for more details!

  Good luck

• Qosmio G10: Question about motherboard replacement

  I bought the G10 around 2 years there are in the United Kingdom and who now live in New Zealand.

  I would say it has been a faithful companion, but looking back it cost much to get anything done, because of the ridiculous prices of the FSA.

  I experienced a power supply, two hard drives, my touch pad no longer works and now the GPU (graphics card) is dead.

  I'm sure that most of the people on this forum knows, that is, replacing the motherboard because it is on board.

  I am out of warranty and replacement cost is more than a qosmio second hand of the same age.

  Having done a lot of research on the internet about it.
  I found out that Toshiba US will free of charge replace the motherboard. I asked Toshiba AUS/NZ and they refused him, that it was not a problem.

  Toshiba UK/Europe does, or is it just the Toshiba US that cares about its customers?

  [Edited by: admin on 20-Sep-2007 07:11]

  Hello

  It's very sad to hear that! :(
  I want to share my knowledge on the Toshiba us and Europe.
  As I know the Toshiba us has nothing to do with Toshiba Europe or Australia/New Zealand.
  Portable computers designed for the American market are simply different and also supports different parts and numbers; for example the Qosmio G10 or G20 are not available in the United States but only the Qosmio G15 or G25, etc.

  If you have problems with your hardware, you must contact the partner service manager authorized in your country for further assistance.

  Regarding your question.
  Yes, it really looks like a malfunction of the GPU (graphic processor unit). This graphics chip is fixed on the plateau and in the majority of cases, the whole Board needs to be replaced!
  As you know, these hardware problems could still happen because the new age books are of the high-end products that work always with high performance.
  That s nothing unusual.

  I bought a year ago from G20 and I bought an extended warranty on avoid such troubles.
  So, I always recommend buying the extended warranty in the future.

  Good luck and best regards

• Qosmio G10-105: the screen is black

  I was asked to look at a Qosmio G10-105 by a friend who claims that it functioned very well until one day "the screen went black.

  It seems to start fine but there is absolutely no image on the screen with backlight, no and no image "Dim". The problem is that when I plug in an external display there is also no image at all however becomes the external display backlit, but that's all.

  Can I assume that this is neither the inverter, backlight screen or I get no image on an external display?

  Is it likely to be the graphics card? If so, is it replaceable or it is part of the motherboard?

  I tried 2 external displays

  Any help / ideas would be appreciated...

  Thank you
  Rob

  > Is it likely to be the graphics card? If so, is it replaceable or it is part of the motherboard?
  Hmm. It really looks like a graphics card problem
  It was a good idea to connect the external monitor to check if the same problem would appear on the second screen that there is a simpler way to find out if this problem could be linked to the TFT screen or the graphics card.

  The GPU chip set on the motherboard and in most cases (in your case too) the whole motherboard must be replaced :(

  Unfortunately, but it looks like an expensive affair :(
