• Installed the updates, but the display looks like windows 98 and the Wireless does not work

  Hello
  I use a laptop with vista service pack 2 and I tried to update windows via windows update on the recommendation of the support page from microsoft on how to unload a debugger. There are only three optional updates available, I forgot what they are and after restarting the computer the theme looked like windows 98 and my without wire might work, and also, I was still having problems with the game with the question of the debugger.

  What should I do?

• HP Pavilion 17 G6Q75UA #ABA: display looks like washed or bright

  I just bought this pc that it is an open box purchase, when I discover web pages white color and white balance looks good, however, when I discover a dark page, or play a game with dark backgrounds, the screen looks washed out as you have tilted the cover and look at the screen from the top downwards at an angle. I did the recommended updates, calibrated the screen using the pre installed, tried to use the brightness of the screen using f2 and f3, nothing seems to work, I think I know why it was returned to the store, and right now, I tend to do the same thing, unless this is a real simple fix or a setting that I can't find. I know almost nothing about win8 then it's maybe part of the problem. any help would be great.

  Thank you.

  OK so I bought another 17 Pavilion, an upgrade to the last one and still the screen is washed out, it, after doing some research more it would seem that the angle of vision is part of the problem and another part would be the display type itself.

  drivers and BIOS update is not the problem because the pc is new and all new drivers and bios updates have been loaded and applied.

  I return it also and be looking for another brand, thank you.

• 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.

• Failure to display on Qosmio G10

  Hello

  I use a Qosmio G10 for 4 years now. I just got a new motherboard installed 2 months. This morning the display begins to act weird.
  When starting the laptop, windows, start symbol appears almost normal colors, but when the windows desktop is running for 2-3 seconds, the picture becomes bright. The text of the desktop icons is not sharp, and half lower of the screen there is a fine glitter mesh. Although the colors are abnormal on the entire screen: (to be determined with paint)
  -Black is black and white is always white
  -light gray (hue 120, saturation 0, RGB brightness each 192 181) seems normal but dark gray (hue 120, saturation 0, 120, RGB brightness every 128) is represented white.
  -brown (0, 240, 60 128 red brightness saturation hue) and the red light (0, 240, 120 red 255 brightness saturation hue) are represented as the same light red.
  -too dark and clear (yellow, green, turquoise, blue and magenta) are represented as the same color on the screen.
  I look at the picture you see immediately that the colors are not properly represented.
  When the screen is off, and then it shows colors initially normal, but then (after 2-3 seconds) everything becomes brighter and the colors become indistinguishable as described.

  If a 2nd screen is used each colors appear normal.
  I tried the new display driver: no improvement.

  Please give me a diagnosis which component is defect. Do I need a new display or is the new mainbord fault (guarantee).

  > If a 2nd screen is used each colors appear normal.
  According to your description it takes the laptop display problem.
  On the internet you can find many free tools for the control of the display. Try to test with these tools.

• A vertical line on display on Qosmio G10

  Hello world

  Since yesterday I have a vertical line on my screen. He begins to show the start line and all the time. I already had the problem with the graphics card, so I had to replace the motherboard. Is this problem with the graphics card again?

  Hmm, I guess that Yes.
  You could try to connect the external display for the Qosmio, and check to see if the same on the second monitor.
  If the thin line will be visible on the external monitor, then everything looks like the graphics card failure.

• Qosmio F10: Monitor screen looks like a photo of Andy Warhol

  I currently have problems with my screen resembling a picture of Andy Warhol. I resorted to pass through the product Recovery DVD-ROM for my laptop Qosmio F10/G10 in the hope that it back to the factory would solve the problem but it didn't.

  The screen falls down after the Windows Welcome screen, leaving me with my office all Andy Warhol as (i.e., blocks of colors pixelated on the edges of the graphics). I tried to reset the resolution which has solved the problem to an almost acceptable level, but on a temporary basis, because the problem reappears again when I re - start the laptop.

  I think it's something to do with the Windows Multimedia operating system that came preinstalled on my computer (so no recovery disc). The reasoning behind this assumption is that I put a DVD movie in the media which is part of Windows XP and the film is a video of Andy Warhol.

  I put the same DVD in the WinDVD which came as a content of Toshiba and the DVD is perfect! My reasoning is that if there was something wrong with the hardware of the laptop, then DVD playback all programs would react in the same way, but as they do not, there are programming (or operating system problem).

  I'm on the right track? Is there a way to solve the problem via a downloadable file?

  Hello

  The comparison with the image of Andy Warhol's very funny ;)
  However, I recommend you first connect the laptop to the external monitor to check if the same images will appear on the second monitor and run the DVD with Media Center.

  I don't know if it has something to do with the BONES of Mr. for me, it looks like a malfunction of the graphics card, but this is only a suggestion.
  Have you tried to update the graphics driver? Delete the old and try to install the latest version available

• 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.

• 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
  IVAN

  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 white screen at startup

  I have an old Qosmio G10 I bought from a dealer in Beijing about 2 years ago.

  After about a year of use at home, I discovered that the screen would turn sometimes white when the screen was moved or shake.
  Some days it works perfectly well, it wouldn't even start without going white.

  Towards the end the screen would show only a picture when the screen was put in a certain angle.
  Now, the screen will just white the second I turn it on.
  I look at a material problem here or there have been known to have software problems with some of the similar laptops?

  Thank you

  Hey Buddy,

  Looks like that the display cable may be loose. I point to a hardware problem, but before you send your machine to an authorized service partner, go to a technician from the local computer and him to check the cables on the screen.

  If realignment of cables does not help while your display is faulty and should be replaced by an authorized partner. I Don t know how long your warranty is, but if you want even when to send your machine to a service partner, you should visit the following link to find the one closest to your country:

• 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 :(

• 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. However when I try an operating system XP Professional 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?

  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

• Qosmio G10: Breaking news - good news for the capture!

There are a few release notes for the utility on the page as well. Good luck!

• Is it possible to reactivate Qosmio G10 mode standby with Skype call?

  I would like to know if it is possible (and how) to use my Qosmio G10 as a phone with videoconferencing as easy as with a normal phone, I mean how to leave the laptop to low-power mode and let Skype awake it automatically and directly ring when you receive a call.

  I use it without problem when the laptop is not in a sleep mode, but if someone calls when the laptop is in low-power mode, so it does not ring. of course, I don't want to leave a fashion of maximum energy all the time...

  Anyone know a solution? I guess it happens this way because in mode low energy, wi - fi seems to order, because when my computer wakes, then it displays a message saying that 'now he is connected.

  Thanks for any help

  Hi Bea

  Your idea is very interesting but unfortunately I don't think it's possible.
  Activation of the sleep or Hibernate mode is not possible with Skype or other IP phone application because this function must be supported by the BIOS.

  But the BIOS doesn't support something like that
