• Qosmio G20 156: clean install?

  Hello

  I am new to the arena for laptop and am the proud owner of the Qosmio G20 156 fantastic.

  I was wondering what people recommend doing the first thing when you receive... in what respect the sofware & operating system; Is it a good idea to perform a clean installation of Windows and the format of the HARD drive? I'm asking this is because some laptops come with a lot of junkware? If so, it's a very simple process using the recovery discs or I just would open the Pandora's box of possible complications?

  I'm quite proficient with installing the drivers etc.

  Any advice much appreciated!

  Hello

  Well, it s beautiful that you're proficient with installing the driver, but is not everything you need to know.
  This device uses a RAID technology and you will need to also install the RAID drivers, etc.
  I don t recommend to format anything or install the new OS. Toshiba programs and applications are installed on the new Qosmio because it s a laptop top of range with many features. The latest features need these applications.

  But of course it s your device and you decided what and how is running on your laptop.
  I have this case you can use the image of Toshiba and you can remove some programs from the laptop computer in Add and remove programs

  It is a simpler way.

  Hello

  It is hard to believe that the Qosmio G20 may have some problems with the saving screen graphics and slower running.

  In any case try check the energy saving settings and the use of the processor to maximum power. Check also running a process in the Task Manager and stop all unnecessary processes running. Don't forget that antivir application doesn t do any disk HARD analysis in the background.

• How to connect the Qosmio G20 156 to DTT2200 sound creative

  Can someone recommend the best way to connect my G20-156 sound creativity works 5.1 desktop theater DTT2200. This was connected to a PC so I think a card external sound would be via a USB port, but is this the best way and that model?

  Hello

  I put t know what cables and what made the 5.1 support desktop theater DTT2200 but the Qosmio supports headphones with S/PDIF out.

  I use the headphone jack on my satellite to connect the unit to the stereo.
  I use a cable with a connector on one end and RCA connectors (red and white) 2 on the other end of the cable.
  The two connectors, I connected to HiFi and taking helmet.

  I think you can also try to use the same way to connect external speakers for the Qosmio.

• Qosmio G20 156 - no sound

  Hello

  I have a little trouble with my g20-156.
  He had ceased to find wireless networks, whereas it was need a bit of cleaning up anyway, I restored it back to factory default settings.
  The good news is that the wireless problem is now resolved - the bad news is that I have no sound!

  I have checked all the settings in the audio and audio menus and you don't see anything obvious.
  There is a "dumb" light next to the volume knob that is continuously on.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated, because it drives me crazy!

  Thank you

  > There is a 'silent' light next to the volume knob that is continuously on.
  This means that the sound is muted.
  You should go to control panel-> sound control and should check the tabs there.
  In one of the tabs, you will find an option called turn off the sound.
  Do not forget that it is unchecked (mute is not activated.)

• Qosmio G20 156 - card SD & DVD fail at the same time

  Op sys: Windows MCE SP3

  Card SD & dvd stopped working after I tried to update the sd driver.

  I downloaded the module sd-secure-en - 20080916100011.zip in the list of drivers for my SD card and on the execution of the installation requires a missing file * SD Secure Module.msi. *.
  Is this a fault in driver installation, or should I have this file on my PC.

• 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!

• Qosmio G20-114: Vista upgrade issues - common Module driver is blocked

  I have the Qosmio G20-114 P - M 770/XP MCE /... Part number: PQG20E-00D003EN

  I've upgraded to Vista... and receive a message from driver error driver Toshiba common Module is blocked because it is incompatible with Windows Vista.

  I was running Windows XP MCE. Download a newer version of the driver that would work on this machine and with vista?
  I found a later version of this driver for other models...

  Hello

  No, you can download the latest version of common for Vista modules because the Toshiba has not released drivers Vista for the Qosmio G20

  This error message is displayed on your laptop, because the common modules only work with XP!
  If you want to upgrade XP to Vista you must first remove all incompatible applications.

• 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 - 139 problem - won't turn on no-help

  I had my Qosmio G20-139 since early 2006 and have had no problems with it so far.

  About a week ago I started having some blue screen error, I installed the latest driver updates etc and assumed that would cover all the problems. Today, however, my laptop goes off and I can't get it to power upward. The lights on the front, showing the power and battery etc, are lit, and when I press the power button it lights up usual blue, however, nothing else happens. No other light (eg. screen remote wireless, indicator hard disk etc.). The laptop seems to just unable to power on.

  I guess I wonder if there is a fix for this, or if I have to send the laptop.

  My main concern is that few of my files are backed up and I have a lot of photos and data, that I can't really afford to lose.

  Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Even if someone would guide me towards a solution to recover files.

  Thank you

  Hey Buddy

  From your description of the laptop turns off automatically.
  Perhaps this was caused due to internal temperature high more often than the laptop goes off to prevent the equipment from damage

  I don't very well if you get the laptop working again if some of the material is too bad Mr. I mean if processor or motherboard are affected while a replacement could help solve this problem.

  In my opinion, the material should be checked by a technician of the ASP.

  With regard to your data on the disk HARD;
  Well, it might be possible to remove the portable computer HARD drive and connect it to another computer using an external HARD disk controller.
  Then you should be able to access the HARD disk and back up data.

• 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.
