• Qosmio G30-175: screen starts flickering pixels & funny

  Hello

  I have PC laptop Toshiba Qosmio G30-175. I was working fine until last week. But all of a sudden screen looks funny disappeared.
  When I start the laptop, it starts well and windows start too thin.
  But a few early screen minute flicker and everything on the screen disappear and all the screen do cover with kind of pixels.

  Could someone please advice me, what went wrong for this laptop. Is the motherboard or card went graph.
  If so, how can I get it fixed at a great price.
  Is it possible to change the graphics card.

  much thanks

  Hi mate

  I think I have bad news for you.
  According to your description the graphics card chip begins to malfunction, and I think you have only one chance to solve this problem; the defective part must be replaced!

  I would recommend so contact the nearest authorized service partner in your country and ask for later handling.

  Sorry mate but it isn't alternative :(

  Good luck

• Display starts to blink and just before the opening of session is due.

  All of a sudden, this computer starts normally on Windows. When the screen to connect with users and passwords is due, the screen starts flashing, and the boot process seems stopped.

  This computer is a laptop Sony Vaio VGN-AW31S with its hard drive replaced with a disc SSD Samsung 840 EVO.

  It has dual-boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu, each assigned about half of the 1 TB storage space. (Great system!)

  I write this with Ubuntu, and everything seems normal, Full HD. I'm in the area.

  There is no problem when Windows starts in safe mode, perform a disk check revealed no errors to be fixed.

  However, the problem occurs when you use lhe last good known configuration (or whatever its exact name) and also when you use the option of VGA resolution.

  I've been using Windows since version 1 (!) upward since 1988, I have video cards go broken, but I've never known this flashing (not sparkling) at this stage. Nor did I recognize it in existing discussions that have been cleverly suggested once I had entered in the title of this message field.

  It must be a driver invocation mode flashing issue, or a question of some process of black screen in competition with the boot process.

  I can't imagine the SSD being faulty (among the causes of this flashing). BitDefender Internet Security is up to date (it is on autopilot anyway). Could he have allowed some corrupted executable via?

  The last time I quit this computer, I didn't consciously messed with settings or made updates. (I think remember me the updates through Windows Update.)

  Everybody recognizes the problem?

  Could someone identify the cause?

  Could someone suggest a remedy? (I can think of on the last system restore Restore Point).

  Thank you for even reading this far!  :-)

  Hello Elsa.

  I thank very you much for your quick and probably useful answer!

  Your method 1 is one of these remedies I always forget, and method 2 would have probably helped me also.

  However, I have chosen the path I had to recalled all by writing this question:

  I restored the system from the last restore Point. Who did the trick.

  In addition, this Restore Point me proved wrong: its title revealed that it was made during the update of IVT BlueSoleil, a driver for Bluetooth.

  Using this restoration of the system (in normal mode), I did the things I had to do on this computer first. Then I installed the BlueSoleil update. (The previous installation is removed, as planned.) I noticed that one. Missing CAB file (since the temporary unpack directory). So I unzipped the distribution file to a new directory and installed the update from there.

  This finishing installation required a reboot of the system. So I did.

  And they lived happily ever after.  ;-)

  A big thank you once again, Elsa!

• Qosmio G30-175: why the properties system tell Media Center 2002 and not 2005?

  Hello

  I have a qosmio g30-175, it says on the sticker of the authentication windows on my laptop computer Media center 2005, the problem is that when I check the system properties in Control Panel, it says units media center 2002 SP2. I find it confusing, Toshiba gave me the wrong version, or is it quite normal.

  I installed windows by using the recovery disk of the product came with my computer.

  Thank you.

  Don't worry man. Everything is ok! You have a MCE 2005 version

  You have simply checked versions MCE in the wrong way!
  If you want to check the MCE versions open media center, click on "settings", then click "about media center". The version of MCE will appear.

  What you're watching now is the version of XP/OS. The XP is the Foundation for MCE. ;)

• Qosmio G30-175 - where to find RAID driver for Windows 7?

  Hello!

  Have you ever tried the Vista driver? If this isn't the case, you need to test, because most of the Vista drivers are also work on Windows 7.

• Looked for a driver updated - should I all? Qosmio G30-175

  Hello people, new user here Toshiba.
  Last week, I bought a Qosmio G30-175. After an installation of Bluetooth problem, all right.
  I updated the BIOS updated today v1.70 (even if the version of Windows would not work)!
  I thought I'd do a search updates of pilot and I find 86 updates appear!
  Someone could tell me if all of these updates are only available for use, or my laptop especially requires all these updates?
  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  What? 86 drivers?
  Are you sure? I checked the driver Toshiba Qosmio G30 - 175 page (PQG30E) and found only 50 drivers for Windows XP MCE.
  But two entries in the list of 50 drivers! For example there are 2 BIOS, 2 LAN drivers, different modem drivers, etc. listed.

  In the installation instructions document, you must install only the drivers and utilities that are listening. This guide line is important and if you install the Toshiba drivers manually, you should follow this guide line.

  You will also find the document in the section of the driver

• Qosmio G30-175: DVD player - RAM, it's a CD player

  Hello people, I once again.

  My 2 week old Qosmio G30 - 175 has a DVD-RAM drive that now appears in my computer as a CD player. As a result (I think) it will not automatically DVD playback. I can play manually through the media library or WMP, but no option does appear in the properties of the drive for auto, DVD playback.

  Can someone tell me why this happened? It is used to appear as a DVD - RAM drive. The only thing I did was to install Nero Premium. Who would have something to do with it?

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  Some people here in the forum have had problems with burning and DVD recognition because the different burning applications were installed on the operating system.
  Try to remove the other burning software and use only Nero.

• Qosmio G30 - video input using WinDVD Creator and WinDVR 5 problems

  Hi all
  My G30 (PQL32L) supplied with Windows MCE. It has preinstalled WinDVD Creator 2 and personally I install WinDVR 5 (application of part 3 came with my Plextor ConvertX PX-TV402U PVR).

  Problems:
  1 WinDVD Creator 2: failed to set the TV system. I plugged my video source via the video cable (yellow, white, red) provided and connected to the AV-in port. I chose TV on the HARD drive for the new project. Default WinDVD defined as NTSC but my TV system is PAL. Therefore, input video quality is blurry and cut in two. Once I changed the setting in the software of PAL, the video screen turned black and no response. I have no problem with Qosmio Player with the same configuration of the connection.

  2 5 WinDVR: Application can not start correctly (hang and cannot complete the program) I to my Plextor ConvertX PX-TV402U PVR TV source, then connect it via USB2.0 for G30. My ConvertX works in my office, but failed with the G30. The application cannot start properly and hung. No response yet I'm trying to complete the program, but the screen was always there. When I try to stop my G30 then Windows MCE hung at the "Closing Windows" screen. I have to stop by pressing the button. ConvertX being operation USB cable, it is not achievable in Qosmio.

  Can someone help to solve these or give advice?

  Fine thanks

  Hello

  I copied the film on my camcorder for Qosmio G30 (WXP MCE) without any problem and subsequently created the DVD using Ulead moviefactory program. I also tested it with VHS-recorder. Once again without any problem!

  My camcorder was connected with firewire cable and it has been recognized correctly. VHS-recorder was connected with the aerial cable simply. I was able to record sources using Qosmioplayer (it was just to test because I'm interested, how it works). Movie from VHS-recorder was also possible to record using Media Center Edition.

  I know I also tested it with pre-installed Win DVD Creator but camcorder has not been recognized as usual. If I remember well I put the TV source and that the camcorder is recognized correctly. To be honest I don't like this Win DVD Creator and I have not tested properly.

  So I would like to know what your video source and what you hear in AV-in port.
  Please tell me exactly what cable you use for audio/video data transfer and exact port on your Qosmio laptop?

• Qosmio G30 - 175 GB nVidia series 7600 Code 10/43

  I recently updated my G30-175 of windows update (Windows XP), then I started getting a "Code 10" on my chipset nVidia Go 7600 series. Since this happened I tried to roll back the graphics driver (when that happens first,) which when it restarts it worked very well, and I then shut down the system. When I started again the next day, I had the same problem of Code 10.

  I tried to use a restore of the system, but to no avail. I decided to uninstall the graphics drivers and install the Toshiba drivers, those for winXP and everything I got was Blue Screen of Death, once to start in safe mode, I uninstalled the driver, and recommended installed nVidia Driver (beta version 179,48 for winXP) I've also tried a few more nVidia drivers that I found for the Go 7600 and the result remained the same "Code 10" cannot start device.

  I read a lot of blog to this topic for series 7, 8 and 9, who generally say that there are "Problems" with the pilots, and to use the windows update the nVidia drivers. I tried this and still no change.

  Not seen floppy disks of origin for the laptop, I decided to take it on myself and upgrade of the 2x512mb RAM sticks to 2x2gb DDR3 laptop RAM, the system started very well and I decided to install windows 7, from what I read, it was the best option (for Office 7 cards of the series) (, after not found 'NO' blog on the Go 7 series) after installing win7 chipset began to work properly, it's up to windows update, and once again, the same "Code 43 windows reports errors and the unit stopped.

  I tried the Windows7 Drivers to support Toshiba, once again BSOD, I tried to reinstall the windows update the nVidia drivers, and the drivers from the nVidia site (179.48 version beta for Windows Vista/7), which none are working.

  I tried to solve this problem now for 10 days and not a glimmer of hope. It is possible that the chipset is not, however, I think it's a malfunction of the software, it is also a coincidence that when I update windows, I get a chipset failure.

  Any help is good help.

  Thanks for listening

• Qosmio G30 - 163 - cold start takes more than 5 minutes

  Recently my Toshiba Qosmio G30 - 163 aged only 4 months takes a boot cold (from Qosmio Logo) 5-10 minutes of connection Windows users... I already used the disk recovery and reformatted the second drive, remove any software, but there are still more than 5 minutes at startup. Can anyone help?

  It's nice that you have installed OS again, but we don t know what applications do you use for you personal configuration. Is your laptop connected to the local network in the business or you use at home only?

  Here in the forum, it is not easy to say something concrete, because nobody knows how you have configured your Qosmio. Of my friends a Qosmio G30 and start taking some time but not so long.

• Qosmio G30 - white lines on the screen and BSOD

  1. I have a Qosmio G30
  2 operating system Windows XP MCE
  and I have problem "white lines on the screen ' when windows start to load after that I got the"blue screen of death"and restart the computer.
  I try to get back, but unfortunately came with the laptop recovery CD doesn't seem to work...

  Whenever I finished to recover I have "windows loading files" and once this is done, it shows me the so-called "blue screen of death"...

  Hello

  I m afraid. I have bad news for you ;(
  I think you ve you have a problem with the hardware in my eyes, there might be something wrong with the GPU chip.
  The white lines on the screen could be related to a faulty graphics card and get the BSOD error due to a hardware malfunction or software serious questions

  I m sure that the recovery CD does not contain software problems and therefore only the fault of hardware could be the reason for the lines on the screen and the BSOD.

  In my opinion, you should contact the ASP in your country for assistance if all goes well you guarantee is valid.

  Good luck

• Qosmio G30 - external display problem (HDMI)

  Hello

  I have Dell UltraSharp 2407WFP display with HDMI and DVI (with HDMI DVI converter) entry - I use HDMI as my primary connection. My Qosmio has NVidia 7600 Go card with the latest drivers provided by Toshiba for Vista 32 bit (version 7.15.10.9813).

  My monitor was working fine months ago (same thing with my HDMI TV) I had no problems - but now I have a constant flickering problem (goes black watch my office then becomes black again) computer laptop monitor and no image on external display at all and I get 'balloon' message in the taskbar that my display driver has stopped working and it recovers when I leave my HDMI cable.

  any ideas?

  Thank you
  Bran.

  Hi Brani

  It seems that the error comes from the display driver.
  Why you n t try to remove the old display driver and try to reinstall the graphics driver of the European driver Toshiba page
  You may notice some improvements.

  By the way; It might be useful to know that the Qosmio G30 supports the standard HDMI V1.1 (up to 1080i resolution).

• Qosmio G30-175: how to install Qosimo Player after changing RAID

  I noticed on my G30-175 x 2 80 GB hard drive, I had the opportunity to do RAID1 but don't want that.
  I want RAID0, I understand that I have to rebuild, said drivers on the disk that is ready to go, but I noticed that the player seems to use a small partition on the hard disk 1.
  After I changed the raid settings in the Bios I assume that that info will be lost so now, during reconstruction, which will be reinstalled from the cd rocevery aswell?

  Help me please

  Hello

  You re right. Changing the settings in the BIOS RAID leads to loss of data on the hard drives.
  = RAID0 mirroring. This means that all data are saved on the first HARD disk will also be stored on the HARD drive second.

  So I guess that the Qosmio Player will be installed on the first HARD drive on a small partition.
  Do you have the Qosmio Player recovery CD?
  If Yes, then you should be able to reinstall this application.

  Note: To my knowledge the recovery CD contains only the operating system, drivers and utilities but not a Qosmio Player. So you must install it in addition form the Qosmio CD player!

• Bad resolution of Qosmio G30 - external display via the HDMI connection-

  Hello! This problem makes me crazy, please help if you can...

  I just bought a G30-102 and I am trying to use it with an external display via the HDMI connection. The problem I have is that the native resolution of 1920 x 1200 cut the edges of the screen and the quality looks terrible - its almost as if the entire screen is enlarged. I tried with a BenQ FP241wz initially (1080i is 1920 x 1200) and the Toshiba helpline could not find a solution either - even after painfully reinstall all the drivers, etc..

  Its been going on for so long, I thought I'd try it out with my HDTV instead, just to be sure it wasn't a monitor problem. So I tried with my Toshiba 32WLT66 - and come to find that it has exactly the same problem.

  All the display settings appear to be correct and the G30 is convinced that the result is correct, so I have now it is - don't you think not that this is a problem with my HDMI port?

  Please help, I'm a designer, and it is essential that I use the machine on a large screen. If it is a hardware of the G30 problem, I need to talk to Toshiba immediately replace or fixing.

  Hello

  I tested the Qosmio G30 (HD-DVD) with my LCD TV using a HDMI cable. Everything worked perfectly. As a first step, I put 1080i value in the settings of the BIOS and after following the instructions in the HDDVDGuide document under http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB6A01LH000LR01.htm

  Hello

  Display resolution of Qosmio G30 - E10 passes sometimes 1920 x 1200 (my default) to 1024 x 768 after returning from standby or Hibernation

  I run Vista Ultimate, most recent display of the download area of Toshiba driver.

  This happened at any time, but sometimes.

  Any solution to this situation of bases.

  Hello

  It's really not easy to say why it happens. I think that it of difficult to reproduce this problem, because it happens that sometimes ;(
  You said you are using Vista Ultimate.
  Have you checked if this happens using the Vista OS since the Toshiba Recovery CD?

  It would be very interesting to know if this occurs on laptop with Toshiba to factory settings.

  I found a thread on a similar theme;
  Someone suggested to update the graphics driver.

  Perhaps a graphic driver of the www.omegadrivers.net or www.laptopvideo2go.com might help.
