Qosmio G20 - 108 awakening with lid closed

Hello

I have a Qosmio G20-108 with BIOS 1.2. I've set a scheduled task in Windows to run at night and wake up the computer to do. This only happens when the cover is open, if it is not closed, the task is not executed. Does anyone know if the reactivation of the BIOS will work if the lid is closed? Update the BIOS to 1.4 make windows work power the machine on the lid closed?

On an unrelated note, where can you get information about what is in the various versions of BIOS? I'm not used to slapping just the latest BIOS on a machine if I have the problem, I want to know what is in the update, what are the features it has and what suits it contains! An hour to search the net and support of Toshiba pages and I cannot find a thing, except for the file to 1.4 real day.

See you soon,.

Steve

Looks like everything is clear now

    Tried the red-yellow-white cables that came with the laptop, can get sound via the laptop, but no image.

    Then tried the input cable tv/satellite of the RGB output on the video via Media Center but can't get the laptop to tune into the video signal - just says there is no signal detected even when the video player is on and play a tape.

  • Qosmio G20-108 Windows recovery problem.

    Hello

    I just purchased a Qosmio G20-108 of ebay and the seller said that the laptop is ok but I had a virus previously and it wiped the HARD drive. The DVD player has so replaced it by a new one, but he couldn't just load the recovery of Windows Media Center. I bought the laptop thinking that I can fix it but I could not and now I felt stupid: (.)

    When I turn it on, you receive this error message:

    ERROR ATA #1

    Intel (r) Boot Agen FE v4.1.16
    Copyright (C) 1997-2004, Intel Corporation

    PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
    PXE - M0F: Exit Intel Boot Agent.

    Someone has an idea on how to solve this problem before sending it to the "Topaz" Support and cost me a fortune?

    Thank you.

    If the DVD player is replaced, you are 100% sure it works well then you probably have a problem with faulty HARD drive.

    If possible, try to get one for testing purposes. It can be used. Replace the HARD drive and try to install the top OS. Check if you have full access to the HARD drive.

  • How to set up an external monitor to display cell with lid closed?

    Hello

    I want to configure my new two external monitors to function as an extended desktop MPB lid closed, but am not clear how. What I see as I type this now is the screen MBP as usual, the external monitor to the right has the image of the desktop from my laptop but nothing else, and your screen to the left with the Yosemite stock to the image of the Sun and nothing else. They are connected by a Targus docking station, I guess that properly since both are alive and well.

    What I would do with lid closed is the screen to the left of the screen MBP and see right monitor as an extension of the left. I tried to close the laptop to see it would automatically migrate to the left monitor, but it does nothing.

    Your help is appreciated in advance.

    Paul

    In system/display Preferences, you can set to mirror or extend.  https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT202351 if this does not work, you might have a problem with your connection.

  • Qosmio G50 overheats while working with lid closed?

    If I work with the lid closed (i.e. turn on with the remote control) so that I just use two external monitors, the G50 will overheat or like other portable dockable, it's a very happy job like that?

    Does anyone know?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Why the Qosmio overheating?
    I want to say I put t see a link between overeating and closed or open lid

    The cooling fans are placed at the bottom of the unit and the air clear on the portable side so it s is not serious if the lid has been closed or not

    The laptop should not overheat

    Good bye

  • Qosmio G20 - 108 - want to upgrade the graphics card

    Hiya,

    I've got a g20-108 and I really want to spend the nvidia card to something with a little more umph. I would just get a new laptop, but I like the machine, and I think that its worth the hassle. I was looking at the nvidia geforce go 6800 ultra 256 MB card but was not sure it was compatible. If any1 knows of a card that would be better or if it can be please let me no

    Cheers for any info

    Hi skimming_skinner,

    The problem is that this graphics card is not extendable part. That means t, you can exchange it with another model because it s fixed/soldered to the motherboard and nontradable.

  • Qosmio G20-108: RAID-> new HARD drive replacement - he does not want to mirror

    I have a laptop G20-108. The raid was quite happilly mirroring then Hdd2 failed. I removed the disk dirve and replaced by a new one [seagate 100 GB sata 150], but he does not want to mirror?

    The stuff of aide said she should recognize a new hard drive with a context menu? I do not have it, but when you click on the console's hard drive icons both say that they are what they should be, but they are both "affected"? Nine should be disconnected not online? should we not say reconstruction?
    I tried pressing the raid button turn off but it wouldn't let me!

    Help how to leave the raid console know it is a new drive and should rebuild Hdd1?

    Hello
    For the use of toshiba (stripping or Mirroring) RAID, you must have two identical drives. Your G20-108 model comes with 120 GB (60 + 60), two hard drives. If you bought a 100 GB hard drive, certainly it will not work.

    Try this, and you will have no problems:
    Make sure that the disks are identical; You can use two different brands, if they are the same size and speed, but it's a BAD IDEA, just get two new hard drives, same brand and size and you make life simple.

    Hello

    You see the Toshiba BIOS screen after turning on the laptop?
    You can access the BIOS?

    If you see something on the screen and access the BIOS, I would recommend load default settings here.

    But, generally speaking, for the moment, it is difficult to say why this happens, so you should test step by step.

  • 230 X: the display on two monitors with lid closed?

    My current setup:

    • ThinkPad x 230
    • Docking station series 3 ban
    • EVGA UV Plus + 39 vga box to allow setting up dual monitor

    I have the following problem, I don't know if they are related:

    First question:

    • When I close the lid on my laptop, it stops. I expect it would display Desktop on my two monitors.

    Second question:

    If I'm away from my computer, my screen become white.

    • I tried pressing the keys on my keyboard to wake up my system [does not]
    • I tried to open the lid: computer laptop screen is blank
    • So I have to shut down my computer, open the cover of the screen, and then close the lid and they press the button on my docking station to display Desktop to my two monitors?

    Do you know what causes this problem?

    Moderator edit: matched subject to content.

    1. disable stop option for "lid closed" settings within the app Lenovo Power Manager (Group of event parameters).
    2 could you be more clear. Please? Your laptop is going to sleep several minutes later (5? 15? same?) we let him? And you can not wake him normally?

  • Re: Satellite L500D - speed wireless worsens considerably with lid closed

    Hello

    The last 3 days have been nerve wrecking for me. I am the owner of a Satellite L500 D and at the moment, I decided to connect it to an external monitor, to enjoy a better visual experience, until I have buy a desktop computer.

    Well, day 1, I had problems with the speed of the wireless connection (the laptop is related to the router via a wireless connection only). Physically, what I've done, it is simply connect the monitor to the laptop, while closing the lid, so it won't get in the way. And Yes, I had already checked the 'Status quo' feature in the desktop "when I close the lid of my laptop.

    I went to a speed of 30 Mbpps to love... 1 Mbpps, or even less, so that it becomes almost unbearable for surfing the web, let alone to download all the files. After calling my ISP support line and a subsequent visit by a technician (he's even changed the router), we were convinced that the problem lied in the router, or disruptions in the connections wireless neighbors, microwave ovens, cell phones, that sort of thing. I even thought that the problem had something to do with my wireless keyboard/mouse set that might interfere with the connection because it uses the same 2.4 Ghz band range.

    After spending a lot of time to ruin my head, I suddenly noticed how the speed would increase simply by opening the lid of the laptop. And the surprise... If I just lift the lid a bit (like 10 cm) above the keyboard, I hear a sound of 'connection' and therefore, the connection speed is always high.

    Have you ever had such an experience? Is the antenna (is it located anywhere in the keyboard?) of the adapter that stops whenever I close the lid? Is it possible to permanently program the computer to have the connection all the time?
    Well, it has been an experience painfully education

    Appreciate your comments/solutions

    Paulo

    Hi Paulo

    We speak/write here on laptops and computers laptops are designed for mobile use and all of the material placed in the laptop is also optimized for mobile use. It is logical that wireless antenna must be placed in the book part where it can get better WLAN signal. Because of this key WLAN antenna is placed around the screen. When you open the display WLAN antenna is best placed to pick up WLAN signal.

    If you want to use the laptop as the lace and desktop replacement by with closed side cover I recommend using connectivity LAN only or perhaps some external WLAN as WLAN USB stick antenna.
