Qosmio G10 map dead mother

Hello

I have a 2.5 years quosmio G10.
It won't start more (black screen, no more sound at startup...)
I have seen a lot of post on the web, it seems that my motherboard is dead!...
The cost to fix ix unaffortable (above the price of laptop!...)
Do you have any information on that?
I can't believe, this laptop is a laptop upscale, it cost me about 3000 euros. For only 2.5 years of use moderate!

Hello

I think that is not just to sell a supposed "quality and solid" product, if it is still supposed to last more than three years.

A friend of mine a year ago, Mercedes ML, and in one year he was already three times in service due to various malfunctions. Now I ask you: do you really new ML is assumed product robust and quality? So much about the quality of the product.

For expensive products, it is always recommended to buy an extended warranty. On the duration of life, we can discuss but I think sometimes we just have a chance with the things we buy.

  • 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

  • Problem of graphics card on Satellite P20 552 & Qosmio G10

    Hallo,

    I have two 17-inch monitors computers laptop Toshiba as desktop replacement: 1 x Satellite P20 552 & 1 x Qosmio G10.
    Both are dead graphics card problem.
    The conclusion of my research on the WEB, it's the nVidia FX Go5700 card seems to be the weak point of these laptops.

    On the Satellite Map dies slowly: during startup Toshiba logo disappeared but WinXP logo was very good load, then WinXP loaded with the screen not refreshing and the problem of synchronization, etc..
    The Qosmio died suddenly: activities on the hard drive I guess load WinXP, but black screen (internal and external)!

    I know that, unlike the desktop computer, the graphics processor is not a separate entity; It is built into the motherboard. My questions are:

    (1) who should be blamed, Toshiba or Nvidia?
    (2) how to prevent premature rupture of the card/motherboard?
    (3) the card/motherboard could be repaired?

    Hallo

    I have red Satellite P20 304 and it still works well. Maybe you can offer this story to someone else, but I can say that Satellite P20 is great for laptop. I like it. Old, but still has an attractive design.
    If you have no luck I can understand it but to talk in general and write about weakness is for me nothing more than absurd.

    Nice questions here especially one. :)
    1 - to blame someone will help any. Try to get the replacement and get it working again.
    2. There is nothing you can do. All you can do is to take care of the use of the laptop and do not overheat.
    3. as far as I know that something like this is not possible. In this case the motherboard will be replaced.

    What you can do is to check eBay from time to time. You may be lucky and you can buy used motherboard for a good price and exchange it.

  • Qosmio G10 106 will not start

    My Qosmio g10 primer not. I am getting white vertical lines on each side of the qosmio splash screen. If I try to boot from the drive, the screen turns white with a cursor blinking in the upper right.

    I can't boot into SafeMode either. One of the suggestions, as the machine is longer under warranty and I suspect that it is maybe the motherboard is dead.

    Hello

    It's not easy to tell exactly what part is wrong, but in my opinion there must be definitely something wrong with the hardware.
    I t can give you an appropriate response to the fault, but I recommend asking Toshiba service for opinion. It should have more experience in these matters.
    The service partner could start some diagnostic tests can locate the fault.

    I put t know if you meet here someone of the Toshiba because this community is only a user to user forum, but I'll try to give you an opinion.

    You don't have a lot of options... try to communicate with the service authorized in your country guys
    Probably they know something more about it

  • Qosmio G10 graphics and sound driver installation

    Hello

    Recently, I tried to reinstall my Toshiba Qosmio G10 after you download all the latest drivers from the Toshiba site.

    Unfortunately I had my motherboard and the screen replaced in the last 3 years (under warranty), which means everything has changed since the original laptop, I bought (now a map graphic, NVIDIA GeForce go 6600, new chip set, etc., as far as I can remember).

    Someone at - it a system restore cd or a place I can download the appropriate drivers for this laptop.

    I am a sys admin and technical and spent about 5 hours, pulling on my hair, trying to get the drivers video and sound work.

    Hello!

  • 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 134: the screen freezes after repair

    Hello

    Earlier my Qosmio G10 had to be repaired because of the vertical-bars-in-screen-and-broke-down-videocard-problem. They gave me a new motherboard and Nvidia Go 6600 and the problem was solved. I hoped... Because then I couldn't not to use the graphics card for more than 5 minutes.

    When I start playing a game, or so it takes 5, maybe 10 minutes in mind for my screen to freeze. Then precious is unresponsive to anything, even to the Microsoft-Magic-Combination-Ctrl-Alt-Del. very annoying to say the least... Does this sound familiar to anyone?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    I agree with the agramer. It is possible to s that you got different but better graphics card. On this page, I read that some users who repaired the laptop got a different card because the original of the delivered graphics card was off live.

    In this case, you should check your device for details of the map Manager and if necessary, you must install the right graphics card driver.

  • Qosmio G10 - how to upgrade the DMI information?

    Help, please!
    I have trouble with Qosmio G10. Toshiba support don't really.help me.

    I changed my motherboard with nVidia 6600 go and 915 PM and new BIOS. Now there are several problems: I tried to run the update tool CD, but it stops and «please use this CD with F10, G10...» Press any key to stop. I can not run product recovery, bad Machine.

    OK, I thought, this Forum search and found that there must be something with DMI. Download Toshdmi10.exe and run it on a bootable CD but the ID does not match!

    Now, I installed XP-Home Edition without recovery of MCE, but it seems that he's in trouble, because the laptop works single fix 598 MHz and has 45 Watt idle Powerconsumentation! It's a lot more before I think. Too much?!

    How can I solve the problem-DMI to run Update tool and recovery CD?

    Hello

    Normally the DMI information can only be updated from an authorized service...

    You wrote about a new mainboard is the same as older mainboard? Maybe the new chipset and graphics card are not compatible with the other pieces of equipment

    In your case I would contact the ASP again. Normally, they should help you if you explain your problem exactly. ;)

    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.

    Hello

    Basically, I tried to show my parents on their TV from uni photos (Qosmio G10 - WIn MCE 2005). And it worked!

    Hello

    Toshiba product model names have 4 components (Qosmio) family name, the series of products (G-series), the model (G10) and exact model number (G10 -103).

    This number is by country, because almost all the countries of europe have different demands of material, then Toshiba shipps different models in different countries!

    As far as I know that the Qosmio G series are shipped throughout europe in Dec.

    Note: Be careful with a computer purchase foreign toshiba laptop, the software package ad OS is also country and language specific! To get the right version of the operating system is pretty hard!

  • Qosmio G10 - no sound on DVD playback

    I have a Qosmio G10 - 106 I just got working again - had to replace the hard drives. I have loaded Windows 7 top and almost everything works up to a point, but gradually working through each of the questions.
    I can't find the original restore disks.

    The problem I have with sound - there is no sound during playback of dvd, although it works very well on Web pages, IE YouTube and is also on audio CD.

    Any suggestions please?

    Hi Debsta_1!

    What software you use to watch DVDs?
    In my opinion, this has something to do with the software you use, because you wrote that the sound works on pages web e. g.

    I always use VLC media player to watch movies on my computer. It s compatible with most audio and video files and this tool is a freeware. I like it a lot because it of too small and never had a problem with it.
