Can someone tell me if it is possible for me to format this OS and install MCE on this laptop? And where I could get a recovery cd/dvd edition of Media Center? What is the procedure to install Media Center Edition of restore cd if I get a? And someone wants to share their media center edition cd recovery with me would be great.

  Hello Anand

  AFAIK only devices with tuner TV have installed MCE and you can get the MCE OS recovery CD if you bought it with the Toshiba unit. If your laptop comes with Windows XP Home you can only get this form of recovery CD service partner. However, you can use the original cd of Microsoft Windows MCE. Then you can try to download all of the necessary drivers from the Toshiba site.

• Qosmio G20-123 with two questions (WIFI AND ELECTROSTATIC)

  I BOUGHT THE QOSMIO G20-123 ON 30 OCTOBER 2005, FRANCE.
  IT'S THE SECOND QOSMIO I (I BOUGHT THE FIRST QOSMIO G10-126 OF FRANCE IN JANUARY 2005 AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY FINE). NEEDLESS TO SAY THAT I ONLY BUY TOSHIBA BRAND FOR MY LAPTOP SINCE THE YEAR 2000.

  UNFORTUNATELY, THIS NEW QOSMIO G20-123 HAS TWO PROBLEMS.
  I WILL ADDRESS THE TWO ISSUES AND THE RESPONSE THAT I RECEIVED FROM TOSHIBA LEBANON (WHERE I LIVE) I HAD THE EXPERIENCE AND THEY HAVE VERY GOOD TECHNICIANS AND SERVICE.

  FIRST PROBLEM: WIFI CONNECTION
  I HAVE THE APPLE AIRPORT EXPRESS AS ACCESS POINT, WHEN I CONNECT THE QOSMIO WIRELESS ACCESS point IT STARTS WITH a SPEED OF 54 Mbps THEN IT COMES down to 1 Mbits/S.i. HAVE to PRESS THE BUTTON REPAIR so that the speed is up to 54 Mbps, and then a few minutes later, it comes down again once at 1 Mbps.
  SO FAR I HAVE NO RESPONSE FROM TOSHIBA ON HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.

  SECOND PROBLEM: FIELD ELECTROSTATIC AROUND THE SCREEN

  WHEN I TOUCH THE METAL OF THE LCD FRAME, THERE IS A LOAD ELECTROSTATIC, FLUCTUATING TENSION ALL AROUND.
  IT SEEMS THAT IT LACKS A PLUG OF EARTH (EARTH) SOMEWHERE... I'VE EVER SEEN AN ADAPTER TOSHIBA WITH A SHEET CONTAINING 3 HEADS (EARTH).
  SO FAR THIS PROBLEM TOO HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED.
  ALSO AS I MENTIONED HIGHER, MY OLD QOSMIO G10-126, WHICH IS PLACED NEXT TO EACH OTHER, USING THE SAME ACCESS POINT AND THE SAME ELECTRICITY INTAKE, AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY WELL WITHOUT THESE PROBLEMS. WHAT SOMEONE HAS THESE PROBLEMS?
  CAN YOU HELP ME SOLVE THEM?

  Thank you

• Qosmio G20-110 with Vista-> cannot transfer files to SD card

  Hello

  I created Vista on this machine by following the instructions of Francisco Jr. Everything works fine except

  1. I can't transfer files on a SD card. I get the following error:
  «Error 0 x 80070079 semaphore time out...» »

  2. He reformatted not either. If I try to format it, I get the following error:
  "Windows could not format the drive.
  The Toshiba SD Memory Format utility would not work either.

  The same problems occur if I insert a Memory Stick. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem? I noticed some people on the forum with a similar problem toshiba Satellite:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=25227&MessageID=95150??

  The strange thing is, I can not read the card no problem, copy her okay and even delete files it contains. But I can't transfer files to it and I can't format it. The card works fine in other laptops with internal SD disks. In addition, it works fine if I plug an external drive in the Qosmio. Under XP it was no problem. I tried to reinstall Vista, reinstall the drivers supplied by Francisco Jr. and ran windows update several times. But I still get the same problem.

  Looks like a problem with Vista not being able to communicate properly with the SD Qosmio player. Would appreciate any help on this.

  See you soon.

  Hello

  As you probably know not all cards are supported and can be used!
  In of the Qosmio G20 unit user manual you should find information what cards argues the Qosmio G20card player!
  Please check this box.

  Regarding your card problem SD;

  Well, I read that you also a message in another thread.
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=25227

  And regarding the declaration, you can read data from SD cards. But it seems that you can not always copy or remove the data from the SD card.

  Well, the SD card should normally pay a locking function. If the card is locked you can only read but you will not be able to remove something from the card or you will not be able to format the card.
  I think you should check this switch!

• Qosmio G20: Problems with tuner TV and Qosmio player on Linux

  Hello!

  I would like to install a Debian's Linux distribution based on my machine... But it looks like there could be some problems with a TV tuner and the qosmio player.
  Is there someone who could help me with a viable solution for this?

  Lasse

  Hello

  Well, you need a TV tuner driver, but the problem is the LINUX operating system.
  There is no drivers for Linux. Toshiba doesn't supports Linux. In addition, you will not find also all the drivers.
  All you can do is to use the Windows operating system. The Knoppix and Kanonix are very nice Linux distributions. You can run these Linux from the live CD. You n t need to install anything.

• 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:

• Qosmio G20: Additional programs are placed on the recovery CD?

  Hello

  I am relatively new to all this if my question is perhaps a bit noobish. But I would like to reinstall windows xp mce on my Qosmio G20. And I know that's what I use the product recovery disc for. But a few things written about it has started to get worried, so if you could answer the following questions I would be very grateful.

  (1) on the product recovery disc it is said that the additional software (ex: DVD player...) cannot be recovered from the dvd. But all these were preinstalled on my computer and I don't have a cd/dvd extra. So the question is: is this a denial of responsibility (unfairly put) and this Qosmio G20 recovery disc has all programs pre-installed so?

  (2) when I start the recovery process he formats just my drive C: or D: drive as well. I have not changed anything since I was the computer. So drive C: is where programs are, D: drive is just for some multimedia stuff.

  Thank you very much. : D

  Hello

  AFAIK Qosmio G20 comes with two recovery media:
  1 QOSMIO recovery media player
  This CD contains QOSMIO player only and use it before you install the operating system.
  2 OS Recovery DVD
  This DVD contains the operating system and all the necessary drivers, tools and utilities.
  When you use the laptop will have to new factory settings. As after the first start.

  When you use recovery DVD to install OS again, there is an option to install the operating system already persistent partition. I put t know if the recovery on your Qosmio DVDs old ghost image or new software Reco.

  Please try to boot from recovery media and let me know how it starts. I can help you to install the OS on the right track.

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.

• Qosmio G20-105: sound randomly stops

  My Qosmio G20 purchased recently (105) appears to 'lose her' after a certain protohistory of the time, and I have to reboot to get it working again.

  Seems to happen once I cut it for a long time protohistory - when I turn the mute off, still no sound. It's as if she fails to recognize that I turned off the mute.

  This happened to someone else? I think a fresh installation/recovery, but if there is a difficulty more easy I would be interested in any suggestions :), people

  Thank you

  Hello

  This problem very strange s. Never heard of problems.
  Before you reinstall the operating system with the recovery CD, I recommend checking the SoundMax Control Panel. In the power management tab you will find power for audio mode settings. It should check this configuration is compliant and if necessary trying to change power mode no energy savings.
  If it doesn't work try reinstalling the audio driver.

  If this don't solve this problem, well the reinstallation of the operating system would be a good possibility.

• Qosmio G20-111: after disk HARD changing the Media center does not work

  Hi, I have a WME Quosmio G20-111, after a hard drive, toshiba support center evolution (disc hard bone) in Italy has reinstalled the WME but whenever I try to use the Media Center pc crash and show me a white screen. After several phone call they told me that the problem is that they don't update quosmio drive drivers?
  I'm desperate, any suggestions?

  [email protected]

  Hello

  Well, as far as I know that the Qosmio Player has been installed on the partition hidden on the new laptop, but perhaps the ASP is not install this application after replacing HARD drive.

  But I do not understand why the missing Qosmio Player should have a bad influence on the media library? MC is a Microsoft program that is part of the Windows XP MCE. Player of Qosmio is an invention of Toshiba and should have nothing to do with the MCE.

  However, you can try to install the Qosmio Player and then try to recover the entire operating system with the recovery CD Toshiba original delivered.

  Maybe it helps.
