• Qosmio G20-117: bad pixels on the screen and the CD rom does not work

  Hello

  I have a problem with the computer hardware. I got a Qosmio G20-117 and you have a problem with the cdrom and the screen. Got bad pixels on the screen, and cdrom does not work. I live in the United Kingdom, so I tried signing up to them to choose the computer before the computer is out of warranty.

  Whenever I register, it says sorry, an unexpected error has occurred, please try again later. I have tried at least 20 times since yesterday and it doesn't seem to work. I have them even called and they told me, the service is stopped and will be fixed this morning but yet nothing works.

  Any solution?

  Hello

  If you want to contact Toshiba service partner in your country then why you don't call them?
  Toshiba page you will find the database with all service providers in the world.

  I don't think that you need to register something apart from the serial number of your laptop. But in my opinion this could also be done at the point of service.

• 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,.

  Looks like everything is clear now

• Q. G20-117: how to connect to a digital antenna (DVB - T decoder)

  Hi everyone, hope you can help me with some tips and tricks to connect the Qosmio G20-117 computer to a digital antenna (DVD-T set-top box) from Samsung.

  The problem is that the connection with the coaxial cable is really very bad, so I'm wondering how to connect this receiver with a cable SCART original...

  Thank you!

  Erik

  Hello

  As far as I know original SCART cable can be used just for the signal and not the signals in. In my opinion, you must connect the external device to your Qosmio use composite cable. Check it with Qosmio player. Scan of the channels and a single channel should be based.

  Good luck!

• Qosmio G20-114: what are the features of hard drive?

  I just deleted one of my harddrives to my G20 114 so that I can work on my data while my laptop was being repaired.

  My plan was to put in a case of hard drve 2.5 "usb. I was also going to use a spare hard drive 100 GB I need to act as a backup of the operating system drive.

  However, it seems that the arrangemnt pins on the drive, I removed from my Qosmio is different from what I'm used to and it does not seem to hold in the external box. I guess also for this reason that the spare drive I used to fit into the Qosmio. I guess I must be missing something as this may not be the case here. They use some sort of different player in these machines or have I forgot something obvious?

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  AFAIK the Qosmio G20 was delivered with S - ATA drives.
  The HARD drive is fixed by 4 screws on the HARD drive carrier.
  Did you remove this media from HARD disk?
  This is perhaps a question why the HARD drive does not fit into the case.

• Qosmio G20: Question of Media Center Receiver - recovery question

  As the abvoe really, I usually leave my computer running from one day to the next day and yesterday I went on it to find that I had 80 MB hard drive (60 GB HDD) to the left. Error messages had popped up and a record of these was recorded in the folder pchealth, under userdumps, or something like that. Anyway I deleted 58gigs with a value of these userdumps, but the same error message kept popping up.

  It was a mistake with the Media Centre receiver, but I don't quite know what it is, but it was founded in the ehome folder which I think is located in the main folder of Windows.

  I have been into msconfig and stopped the ehhome.exe to start but that seems to ruin the tv/video within the media library settings.

  I recently installed the codec and divx player to play divx movies.

  I was wondering is that it would be more prudent to use the CD recovery and re - install windows and the software and create a restore point, and then install the codecs to see if the same problem arises, or if someone has had this problem and it heals.

  Finally, I actually ran the recovery cd to the above, but when the cd starts the first line on back said something like, 'running Setup for windows 98'. XP is certainly on the 98 and no recovery cd?

  Can someone please confirm this for me and all the answers to the above problems.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  I can t believe that Windows 98 is placed on the recovery CD.
  AFAIK the Qosmio G20 was delivered with the MCE window.
  There is no recovery of Win98 CDs for Qosmio units.

  In my opinion, this message occurs due to RAID or other drivers that load at the beginning.

• How to find drivers for Vista for Qosmio G20?

  Hi all...

  Has anyone managed to get the qosmio g20 works properly with vista drivers yet? (or even you managed to find the vista drivers!).

  Video and audio running in slow-mo... do I need to install the drivers for the monitor? (if so where are they?)

  Please., please., please., help someone...

  Leighster

  I think you'll be able to download from the Toshiba site if the drivers will be available.

• XP installation on a hard drive SATA Qosmio G20

  HELP HELP HELP!
  Hi all

  I think I had the same problem of many of you and I'm a little desperate.

  I have a Qosmio G20 that come with XP home but I need to install XP pro that I own.
  I tried following the instructions online Toshiba (driver on floppy disk), but never worked.

  After reading your advice I tried with an ISO image created with nlite, including drivers, but did not work...

  I also did write to Toshiba, but so far no response from them and I have the Qosmio lying there and I can't use it!

  I'm kind of desperate too because I can't use the laptop as the XP Home installed is corrupt!

  Please can someone give me help!

  Hello

  As I know the image designed to the Japan isn't the same as it is in Europe and you should check if you can find a RAID driver designed to Japan for your device. I hope that it won't be difficult.

  It is really possible to have the problem because of it.

  Good luck!

• The series Qosmio G20 does support PC2-5300?

  Hello all,.

  For some time now, I've thought about the possibility of an upgrade of RAM for my Qosmio G20 - 126 and all looking for a more economical way than that which is available via the Toshiba site (~ £100 for a 1 GB RAM Module!) I met articles suggesting that the Qosmio G20-126 is compatible with RAM PC2-5300 (333 MHz). To my knowledge the Qosmio G20-126 comes with 2x512MB PC2-4200 (266 MHz) modules installed, in addition to the direct available from Toshiba RAM upgrades are also PC2-4200. So my question for you, former scholars of the Toshiba support forum is simple; my laptop is REALLY compatible with PC2-5300? and if so there will be problems worthy of consideration (i.e. insufficient power supply etc...)?

  Also, I wonder if there are intrinsic advantages regarding the marked Toshiba RAM upgrades available via the site of Toshiba UK. I found the modules of RAM of the similar (at least as far as I can see) specifications for a third of the price. It would be also interesting to note that the model of module of RAM available here on Toshibas website is (according to Google products alias Froogle) same price when buying from third party suppliers (so it's not simply a question of margins exorbitant of Toshiba, unless of course the sellers are also defined on by the aforementioned increases.)

  Sincere greetings,
  Lee Hyde.

  Hello

  The Qosmio G20-126 supports a FSB 533 and, therefore, the PC2-4200 DDR2 266 MHz modules are! (DDR2 266 Mhz-> 533 MHz)
  It is absurd to use the RAM PC2-5300 DDR2 333 MHz due to the FSB. You won't see improvements in speed or performance.

  I wonder why you are surprised that Toshiba recommends the use of own products (memory sticks). I think that each manufacture recommend clean products!
  In addition, it is important to mention that brand memory modules are much faster and the performance is much better than the performance and quality of the nameless memory module.

  Of course, you can use all modules that supports hardware specifications, but the don t wonder about laptop performance and memory problems after the use of modules without a name!

  I use the modules of Kingston and I also recommend using these modules, because quality is really nice

• Qosmio G20: How to disable/bypass SCMS-T for adiosyn with a bluetooth headset?

  Hello all,.

  I recently bought a set of bluetooth stereo headphones (Creative CB2350) and found that, because of the inclusion of SCMS-T copyright protection I can't audiosync directly to my computer laptop bluetooth stack (Qosmio G20). The headphones come with an audio jack adapter (bluetooth transmitter), but it runs on a single AAA battery and cannot last more than an hour; So I need to connect without it.

  Is there a way to disable or circumvent the requirement for protection by copyright SCMS-T in the last toshiba bluetooth stack? and if not why not? I paid a lot of money for my Qosmio and my helmet and I'm leaving furious inclusion deliberate software/firmware designed to keep me from using my material for legitimate purposes (i.e. what they were designed to do).

  Please help me,
  Lee ([email protected])

  PS: Frankly I didn't really a problem with DRM technology before that, but now I can see how irritating and pointless DRM is. Compare the number of people using bluetooth devices for piracy (negligible) number of bluetooth headset that does not support the MAN - T (a lot if all my google searches are anything to go by) and see you how stupid the idea of DRM via bluetooth is really.
  In my opinion not so humble large commercial companies like toshiba should woven converluted pap as SCMS-T as a matter of appeal; the final user does not want to spend several years download licenses and scouring the web only to find out access to his material is totally useless. (Sorry for the rant, but that's how I feel).

  You're right, I completely agree with you.
  The problem here probably that Toshiba is a little anxious summer continued in the music industry, if users use technology to copy copy-protected music.
  I think that it should be possible to transfer the responsibility of the end user by some sort of agreement, that the user must confirm once by a mouse click during installation.

  I already had a discussion with Toshiba customer service on this issue. They informed me that they reconsider this issue and try to find a solution for this. The odds are so good
  that a future version of the BT-stack will be the ability to disable the GUY.

• Qosmio G20: Problems with mobile phone Bluetooth connection

  I am sure I posted this question a couple of days, but it seems to have disappeared. Anyway.

  I'm trying to connect my phone Nokia (N95) to my G20 via bluetooth, however every time I try to put in place the bluetooth software insists on trying to set up the phone as a modem. Now, I don't want it as a modem, just to connect while I can symchronise and save things, but I can't seem to find a way to set up the connection without the application process for the modem settings.

  If I have to configure the settings of the modem then it connects ok but fuck my internet connection to the site and if I disconnect the modem connection in IE my bluetooth connection disconnects as well.

  Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

  Thank you very much

  The installation of the Nokia Suite program is normally pretty simple. You must put in place by the Nokia Suite itself and not with the Bluetooth stack. Make sure that Bluetooth is running. A look at some similar HowTo on the following Web site might be useful:

Even on the film "nilo" which comes connected to media player... when it comes to an image of an egypsian walk to the horizon on the stones... If you look at the blue sky, the definition is not so good... Why is this?
  Despite this problem watching movies top it s super...

  Hello

  First of all, you are right. This very nice laptop s. I wish I would have a.
  Good on your problems:

  1.), you should try to change the display resolution. It would be very interesting to know if the black dots remains on the screen. In addition, I put t think that it s a pixel dead issue because you don t have problems if watch you movies.

  2.) have you used a Qosmio Player or a MCE? You should try to start the Qosmio player and try to launch a new search for TV channels. In the manual, you will find a detailed description of a connection and the use of the Q drive

  3.) have you activated the Bluetooth with FN + F8 key combination?
