• Qosmio G20 102: problem RAID the installation of windows xp media center

  First of all I did not the raid driver for my qosmio. I tried the RAID of Qosmio G20, another pilot but when it reached the stage when I ask windows to format the C driver it shows me an error. It is said that there is an error in the KR10N file and it stops there.
  Please help me and thank you.

  Hello

  It seems that the Qosmio G20 102 belongs to the series of PQG20E.
  Research on the European driver Toshiba page I found the RAID for Windows XP MCE driver v1.03.0008 (can also be used with XP Pro).

  You will need an external USB FDD to include this driver in the operating system.
  But note; After installing the RAID driver you shouldn't t format the HARD disk or create a new partition, because that will remove the RAID driver from the HARD disk and installing the OS fails!

  I hope I could help you would also appreciate a feedback ;)
  Best regards

  Hi ismael,.
  I'll try to help with that, but it's a long way to the road...
  I don't know what Tv system is used to Malta (Pal)?

  The best way to set up your TV's with Media Center 2005 edition.
  Cables:
  Check the back of your cable TV installation box and find the composite or SVHS output. If you have only the composite, you can use the composite cable of the posted image. If your TV decoder has the SVHS, so you should use, to the better image than composite. You must obtain a SVHS cable for this.
  Look for the audio output rca, too. Mix with the composite cable for the audio Qosmio.

  But you must have:
  1 control cable IR, for media center 2005 configuration as well as your TV decoder. It is cable connected to the remote sensor (see fact sheet on the back).

  2 sensor for your remote control and configure it with the remote control of your TV decoder. In this way, you can control the receiver cable channels, using the remote control for your Qosmio G20 media center edition.
  Recovery: you can change the channels on your TV decoder using the qosmio remote control.

  3. remote control for you media Center 2005, one that came with your Qosmio g20.

  Open the TV on Media Center 2005 configuration and follow all the steps required for installation.
  You must follow the guide, as is explained in the image you posted:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsxp/mediacenter/using/Setup/SetTop.mspx

  If you have all these cables, you can use the Qosmio player to watch TV. It is not tied to windows OS.
  Here, simply connect the coaxial cable and let the Qosmio player search for available channels in your area. Qosmio player has the opportunity to set the colour TV system in any part of the world. all NTSC regions in all PAL regions.
  If you have the remote control for your Qosmio, TV keys will work directly with the Qosmio remote sensor on board, without needing the external sensor of Microsoft.

  I hope this helps you

• Qosmio G20: How to repair Windows without formatting?

  Hello
  I have a qosmio G20 bought in October 2005. I need to repair my OS. The CD/DVD provided with the Windows XP MCE do not provide an option 'fix' as one provided when you buy a copy of Windows. How can I repair my OS without format my laptop?

  Thanks in advance for your kind cooperation

  Antonis

  The supplied restore CD does not contain the repair console because it s not an original Windows CD. The restore CD contains only an image of the files. Don't mix it with the CD of Microsoft!

  To get into the repair console, you will need the original CD of Microsoft Windows.
  I also read on the Microsoft site that it of possible to download the repair on 6 discs FDD console. Then you could boot from this drive FDD and you might be able to get into the repair console. But I have never tested this procedure.

  I found this useful MS document also how to install and use the Recovery Console in Windows XP

• Qosmio G20 - 102 Shutting down unexpectedly

  Hello
  I've known a lot of problems with my computer laptop qosmio, this all started in the summer 2004, since then ive sent several times to the dealer of Toshiba to Malta, taho. And they said it worked perfectly well when they tested. Quite strange, indeed.
  I remembered about it since his stupid enough to let a such good laptop to lose a few days ago.
  So now, on the issue.
  A small prgram called thotkey.exe appears in my taskbar, even if no real window opens. And after that, I have about 2 seconds before my screen blanks out and stops the pc.
  I thought to sell the laptop several times, but no one wants to buy it because of its problems.

  And what happens if you use a supplied recovery media and install new OS (factory settings)? This is the problem?

• Qosmio G20 - how to reinstall Windows XP without the recovery DVDs?

  I am trying to install windows XP on the laptop. I bought the Qosmio without the reinstallation cd. It has no operating system installed on the hard drive at all. Everything is OK, until he asks for raid drivers, then he said: put the disc in the drive "a". There is no player on the G20.
  I need to buy a USB floppy to do this, or someone has solutions. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  As you know already some units Qosmio supports RAID function.
  If you want to install the OS from Windows, you must first install the RAID driver.
  The RAID driver you will find on the page of the Toshiba driver.

  You have three options:

  1. you will first install the driver disk RAID, and then you could install the operating system from the original CD of Microsoft Windows.

  2. you create a Windows clean boot CD with application called nLite (as mentioned above)
  This application allows you to create the CD of the Windows operating system with additional drivers as RAID

  3. buy the original recovery CD Toshiba with the Toshiba service partner in your country

• Install Windows 7 on Qosmio G20

  Hello everyone, I have a Toshiba Qosmio G20 - 102 model: PQG20E

  My operating system is Windows XP and iam trying to install Windows 7, when I run the Setup, choose "Custom Installation" (I can not choose the form of the option 'Upgrade' XP to 7), but when iam supposed to choose the drive I install windows, I get this message:

  "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. Windows needs the driver for device [TOSHIBA RAID]. Click on "Load Driver" and load the required device driver. »

  I tried to update the driver, I tried searching on the internet, but with no use, I'd appreciate it really if anyone can help, thanks :)

  Hello Ahmed

  In general I put t if it is good idea to install Win 7 on this old notebook. OK you can try it but I fear that you will not be able to find the right drivers for it, especially some specific Toshiba m.

  As you probably know, Toshiba doesn't support this model of laptop to Win7, not even for Vista so the history can be quite complicated.

  Anyway, you can try to load THE RAID driver. You can find it in the KR10N folder.

  Load it using the floppy or USB key. I put t know if it will work, but you can try it.

• Qosmio G20 issue - Codec of Capture / Capture a bound program

  Hello guys and girls!

  Recently I bought the laptop Qosmio G20 102 and I am very satisfied with it because I found many flaws that annoy me in my work. Now, I am addressing those who might be kind enough to help me with the biggest problem of all.

  Provided laptop preinstalled with software of InterVideo WinDVR5 which are used to capture video from any source there, as a Composite, antenna and S-video. WinDVR uses mpeg codec to compress the raw data in process, overview and mpg files that you can save later.

  Question: can you change the capture codec or software?

  Why?

  Codec is a bit outdated in terms of video editing. Much more than other codec mpeg on the market and it creates 'blocking effect' in some digital editing software like the first Vegas at the controls of speed or effects are used, and I use them a lot the quality of compressed video is degraded. With the help of divx, xvid, mjpeg codec would be much better to capture video at this level and would really be 'the art of smart entertainment.

  InterVideo WinDVR5 is provided specially for Toshiba laptops with TV tuner or composite input. The software is great. I use version 3 on my desktop and I am totally satisfied. Unlike the version 3 on my desk, on-board version 5 on my laptop do not change the settings for video quality. He's stuck in normal and it didn't budge.

  So, I have way, is there a way to answer my question in the means to change the codec or capture software, or even something else?

  Hello Marko

  It is very nice that you are satisfied with your device. G20 is a very nice unit and hope I'll get it one day too. Back to your problem. I don t want to write much more just a short explanation. Like other laptop manufacturers Toshiba preinstall some deaf for users, but it is just a limited Version limited. These applications are suitable for Toshiba.

  In my opinion, there are basic functions and the user can test the software. If the software is good the user must purchase a full version with all the functions. If you n t like them, it can be removed and each user can install their favorite software.

  I understand you want to edit your videos but I put t think that there is a possibility to change anything.

  In my opinion, you need to install your favorite applications (full version) and on this way, you will be able to capture videos as you want. On this path, it would be 'the art of smart entertainment.

  Good luck!
