  Hello to everyone out there in the land of awareness Qosmio G20. I'm new to the scene of the computer that I bought last week a (my first)! I just want to know if there is any small utilities or programs that exist? For monitoring of the battery or system utility back or a numLocks?
  I use PDAs for the last fifteen years and with them leaving a few small utilities.

  Hello Franklin

  It is very nice to hear that you have decided to buy this laptop fantastic. For me, is a bit too expensive and I buy used a one day. A friend of mine has one and I'm very impressed.

  On this unit are preinstalled many different tools and I recommend you to carefully read the user manuals and pick up information on the features. As far as I know battery monitoring is possible with the tool. With this tool, you can control the use of the battery and save a lot of energy if you use a device in battery mode.

  Toshiba has designed tool system back up is unknown to me, but you can use the built-in Windows tools (tool to backup and restore and restore system perhaps tool).

• Qosmio G20 slow start and restart

  My G20 becomes slower and slower when it starts. I still like the laptop and it s design still makes me believe s the laptop more beautiful that I've ever seen (in my opinion still improve the design then the new Qosmio s).

  So I m using 80 GB hdd2 in each total of 160 GB disk...
  I m using now 72 GB in a HARD drive and 10 GB on the other. So much free space in a single disc, but the laptop is too slow start about 3 min.

  I t n planning restore and clean the system of all the
  Any advice? Gather the HDD0 and space of two disks will be more fast laptop?

  It s 2 GHz speed and 2 GB memory.
  Thank you

  Hey Buddy

  You slow startup and startup has nothing to do with the HARD drive space.
  Your laptop could start slowly, due to a large amount of processes that run in the context of the operating system!

  What you could do, is first the msconfig and disable unnecessary applications in the Startup tab.

  Use some applications cleaning CCLeaner (tool free) i.e. to clean the operating system and the registry. Last but least could not defragment the HARD disk to improve performance.

  See you soon

• My iPhone battery 6 runs very fast and when I load it, it takes more time than usual and overheating

  It all started when I was playing a game my it froze just in case and he would not unfeeze. So after waiting for 6 minutes I hard rebooted my iPhone 6 and 5 minutes later, this problem occurred.

  You are probably games power absorbing with other applications running in the background.   Temporarily disable apps without importance and limit the time you play, at least those power absorbing.

  What is - that I need to check to find out the reasons for the sudden increase at run time.
  
  Indications in this regard would be appreciated.
  
  Thank you

  Mahesh,

  Some queries of the repository allows to retrieve the task of session timings and compare your slow performance to a previous acceptable run, then look the most important changes - it will highlight where you slow down, then its judgment to resolve the matter accordingly.

  See here for some example reports, you might need to tweak to your current version of rest, but I don't think that the table structures have changed that much:

• Satellite L735 take longer than usual to start

  My toshiba Satellite L735 took more time than usual for what it starts (more than a minute, takes usually 40 dry) gave it to the service center, they said they will update the BIOS, optimized computing processor, formatted.

  Again, it was beautiful, but the problem was back in less than a month, he took once again, the person at the counter just reduced unnecessary programs from startup list, came home to notice it took even more time to start (more than 2 minutes).

  When I turn it on, its fine all get the logo windows in no time, but after a black screen appears and remains for about a minute and a half, then the home screen appears, the startup sound in windows that is supposed to play as soon as the home screen plays on 40 dry aftr homescreen appeared.

  Help, please.
  Thank you.

  Hello

  The laptop seems to load windows slowly because too many processes would be loaded initially.
  First of all, I recommend to download and install the CCLeaner. This freeware tool would help you to clean the registry and remove the waste from the system.

  In addition, you should check your processes that would be loaded initially.
  Run msconfig and go to the Startup tab. Here you can disable any process necessary and not important.
  I put t know how much computer experience you have so be careful with that.
  If you n t know what exactly does the unique process, google for more details.
  Remove a mark of close process will disable this you can later too

  In addition, I would recommend checking your anti-virus software, I switched from Norton Antivirus software Avira Antivir because it is much faster and does not require a lot of hardware resources the Avira antivir is freeware software so you can install and use for free.

  Last but not least to defragment the HARD disk in order to ensure access to data faster

  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 G20-114 does not start

  I have a Toshiba Qosmio G20-114 that no longer starts. No display.

  It turns on, the fan starts and you can hear the movement of HARD drive, but there is no display (not even if I plug in an external monitor).

  It was Windows XP. All of a sudden stopped working for no apparent warning, no blue screen or the warning signs.

  When I turn on the laptop I get a few lights on the keyboard space. (The light above the icon of TV, two lights and the light above the icon for media player, the power button just below the arrows)

  I was surfing the internet all day for a solution and tried most of the workarounds proposed, for example; Take the battery and the charger out, leave for 10 minutes and then only replace the charger and try to switch on. Also; Remove a strip of RAM (and trade) and remove all the RAM. Still no luck, however.

  I had an internal beep of her, but only once, it was 3 Quick beeps. Nothing since.

  I'm willing to try any suggestion, although I like to keep the files on the HARD drive because of family photos and which do not.

  All suggestions greatly appreciated.

  Thanks in advance

  A frustrated user of Toshiba.

  I think your problem is not how to save data to the HARD drive. You can remove the HARD drive and connect it to the other laptop using the 2.5 external HARD drive enclosure.
  HARD drive will be recognized as external device and you should have full access to all stored data.
  Do this if possible.

  On this virtual path it is not possible to provide an accurate diagnosis and to say with certainty what can be the problem, but I assume that the LCD is maybe defective.

  Start your laptop and wait a while. Connect your laptop to an external device, and then try to use the FN + F5 key combination. Just to see if you will be able to switch between mode of laptops LCD and external monitor.

• Qosmio G20 does not start

  Hello

  Something is happening with my Qosmio G20.
  Sometimes when I connect the plug to the computer the DC IN indicator flashes orange and the pc does not start.
  A few hours later I try again and now DC IN indicator shows blue and I can boot my pc and I normally work for hours.
  It's very strange. It happens regularly. A few days shows blue and works very well and some other orange flashes of days and I can't work and I have to keep trying to connect and disconnect until it flashes blue to put on.

  Wouldn't be DC Power Charger malfunction? I've already ordered another of DC power charger to confirm, but my intuition says that is not the problem of the charger.
  I remember the 1st time that never happen... I was charging my iPod through my Qosmio and out of the House and let it load it. When I arrived home, the laptop power light flashes orange and I thought it was in hibernation mode. But after that time it started to happen.
  Before trying the new charger and reflections before sending it to the dealer?

  Thank you

  > Sometimes when I connect the plug to the computer the DC IN indicator flashes orange and the pc does not start.

  It's very strange. It happens regularly. A few days shows blue and works very well and some other orange flashes of days and I can't work and I have to keep trying to connect and disconnect until it flashes blue for setting on

  This flashing provides an error code which means that an error has been detected on the motherboard.
  It is difficult to say what could be possibly wrong power supply to electronic malfunction
  But this is only my personal opinion

  You should certainly contact someone who could verify the material and can run diagnostics tests

• Qosmio G20 - error TOS0002 when starting

  Hello people, help please if you can.

  Spin a Qosmio G20 (PQG21E)

  Have just re installed windows XP Recovery disk ME, (system crashes earlier), when re-startup error TOS0002 appears.

  Have been through the process of Winhex, as described in a previous thread, but is not no matter what diference.

  Here is the twist. If I boot with the recovery disk in and do not press any button, after a message ntldr failed the system starts fine.

  Can we get out there give me a solution to this very annoying problem, am at my wits end?

  Hi John

  From my personal experience, I know that the Qosmio G20 supports RAID functionality.
  Different RAID settings can be changed in the BIOS.

  In my opinion, you should check whether the RAID settings are on 1RAID-0 or / and RAID-1

  Sometimes the bad RAID don t parameters allow to install the operating system or cause strange error messages.

  Best regards

• Start Qosmio G20 problem

  I have laptop Qosmio G20, I got error message that my WinXP lost some system files and did not start. I tried to start Windows XP again (I lost the rescue floppy), but my Installer hunged up after 1 minute.

  I tried several other bootable disks including Linux but failed. I suspect this problem in BIOS, I downloaded the BIOS from the Toshiba site, but I have not found all the files PDF with instruction how to create bootable CDs for update of the BIOS listed on the Toshiba site.

  Maybe the problem is in CD/DVD recorder.
  What other way to start my Qosmio G20, I have no USB floppy?

  What do you think of hard drive? Is also possible that you have problems with hard drive?

• Screen is blank when Qosmio G20 starts up

  When I turn on my Qosmio G20-110 I hear the usual chimes and on my LCD backlight lights up but nothing else on the screen.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  Have you plugged an external monitor to the laptop? Maybe it s something wrong with the display internal and so you can see anything on this subject. It s worth a try because you can check this in a few minutes.

  But I guess that it s a hardware problem with the display internal and/or mainboard or something other than your laptop must be verified in professional people, they can disassemble the laptop and exchanging parts of equipment.

  On the Toshiba site, you can search the nearest service provider authorized good luck!

• Qosmio G20 beep a screen much and dimming - why?

  Sometimes my Qosmio G20 begins beeping very much and reduce the brightness on the screen.
  This happens while it is running on the current and with the option of putting to the highest level.
  Simoultanesly there is some blue lights above the keyboard that will start to blink.
  The only way to stop this behavior is to press the button under the flashing blue light and then go into a control panel handle power settings. To do that I have to change the brightness, press on apply, restore the brightness and press on apply again. After that, it can work for a long time before the next incident.
  I have the latest Windows updates, I have an anti virus installed, and I remove spyware installed, so I don't think that those who are to be suspected.

  This happens usually when the PC play a film, but occasionally, sometimes while I play a game or when I use it for work.

  Any help will be appreciated.

  Hello

  I recommend checking out Toshiba's energy saver.
  Select your power mode and check the action of setting parameters.
  Please check the settings of the alarm level.
  You should take a look also on the basic settings. There, you can control the brightness of the screen.
  Please keep in mind that the device uses patterns of Toshiba power saver in the Windows power options properties.

• Gray glittering color screen on Qosmio G20-120

  Hello
  I have a problem very confusing with my new Qosmio G20 - 120.
  I can see vague and wink on my screen when the brightness is set to 2 or 3 levels under the maximum, and the background of the display is set to dark grey (or other color non-black)
  This effect disappears when the brightness of the display is set up, but you know, I can't work with the maximum brightness all the time, because my eyes get tired very quickly in this case, especially in the evening.
  I saw the other G - Series 17 "notebooks and noticed the same problem.
  Is it possible hardware problem or this is common for Qosmio 17 "poster?

  Hello

  I never heard the show. The fact is that you can change the brightness of the screen on many laptops Toshiba, but I've never heard or seen of wave or nod to the screen. I m not sure if it s only your vision or it s a really a display error (FL-UPS).
  If you are not sure of the fault, then take the unit to your local dealer or contact the service of Toshiba.

• Qosmio G20: DVD region Code?

  Hello

  I am about to purchase a Qosmio G20 wasn't what I just learned today that they won't be available mid-2005 in Belgium.

  However, in preparation since then, I have a few questions:

  Because the Qosmio is a DVD playback mode without having to start Windows, this means that the region will be probably set somewhere in the Bios for a given region.

  Travel laptop users and my partner is American, so we have DVD region 1 and 2.

  Are there any evolution of the WinDVD software when running on Qosmio the failing lock a region code after X play. I've never understood that laptops (mobile systems) have the same restrictions as the reception of readers of DVD/entertainment (whow by the way no one knows!)

  So, how can we play the two regions on the Qosmio G20 or anything that will be available for the Belgium.

  Thank you
  Danny

  The bounding can be changed 5 times.

  After the last selected region Code is saved in the DVD player.

  But also, there are a lot of programs (Freeware) that help make your life easier and work around this Limitation.

  The only thing that you can do this through precaution is to google all over the place.

  Good bye
