• Qosmio G30-211: how BIOS update on Vista 64-bit?

  Hello

  The VAP is not compatible with Vista 64 bit. For the execution of the BIOS updated common modules of necessary VAP. Vicious circle!
  Do you know of ways to improve the new version of the BIOS (3.50 win) not under Vista?
  The real BIOS manual upgrade (http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/faq.jsp?z=234&service=EU&from=faq_selection&CFID=B IOS & FID = TRO0000000b07) is not correct and not suited to the content of the package (for example after unpacking, I can't find the files "docs", "Update - 3.5' disc',"Update - CD - R or CD - RW")?

  Hello

  Because of your first thread posted here in the forum, I guess you have a laptop Qosmio G30-211. This unit belongs to the series of PQG32E.

  Now, we must clarify something;
  Toshiba laptops are not delivered with a 64 bit OS. Also the Qosmio G30-211 not was not preinstalled with Vista 64 bit, but with 32-bit Windows, XP Media Center Edition 2005.

  In my opinion, to run the original image of Toshiba (or MS Vista 32 bit OS) for updating the BIOS. And not a 64 bit OS!
  The BIOS of 3, 50 - WIN at the moment on the Toshiba page is OS independent, so it should be available for updating Vista or Xp.

  In the BIOS zip file you will find only an exe file, and you must run this file to launch the BIOS update procedure.

  By the way; the document said Toshiba;

  For the current offers in the range of Toshiba laptops two different BIOS update procedures.
  -Windows base update: BIOS is updated to Windows.
  -Traditional update: BIOS is updated using a floppy disk or a CD-ROM when starting.
  We recommend that you update the BIOS from Windows.

• Qosmio G30-161: can not see the second HDD in my computer

  Hello
  can someone tell me, that I rebooted reboot DVD in my laptop to restore all of the windows in the normal settings
  as I got when I bought the laptop.
  but for some reason when I go into my computer I do not see the 2nd HDD.

  There is only one disk c it but not the other hard drive. I need to change the settings of smoke to see the 2nd hard drive?

  Hello

  Well, the Qosmio G30-161 should be delivered with two hard drives of 60 GB.
  I guess you can see a single HARD disk due to the RAID settings.
  The unit supports RAID technology.
  I think that the RAID is on the mirror. This means that the data is duplicated on both disks.
  Generally, it should be possible to disable the RAID.
  Check the folder utilities Toshiba.

  PS: It is possible that you will lose data after changing the RAID settings. Be careful.

  Help, please...

  Hi dynamitenews

   

  1. are you able to boot to the desktop?
  2. what happens when you try to start the computer?

   

  You must have the DVD drive to start the computer using the disk, you cannot use the external hard drive to do the same thing.

  Also I suggest you to make sure you have defined the start as CD/DVD-Rom as the first choice option in the BIOS. See below the help link-
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions

  If nothing is done, then you can contact the manufacturer support for assistance on setting up the correct boot sequence and check.
  
  BIOS WARNING-
  Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

   

  I hope this helps.

• Qosmio G30-102 - can I install RAM DDR2 - 667 Kingston rather RAM DDR2-533?

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio G30 102 and I wanted to spend my RAM to a total of 4 GB (currently I have 2 GB installed with specifications of a PC2 - 4300 DDR2 (533 MHz)). So I searched for RAM, and I wanted to know it would be possible for me to install.

  * Kingston Technology - memory 2 GB PC2 5300 667 MHz 200pin SODIMM DDR2 *. Would it work properly and if so it would be better than doing a (* 1 GB) memory PC2 - 4300 DDR2 (533 MHz) * the standard RAM installed on my Qosmio?

  Thanks in advance for the answers of th

  Hello!

  To upgrade RAM on my laptop, I used Kingston DDR2-667, and it works without any problems! :)

  Thus, you can use this module Kingston too but I guess that it runs only on due speed 533 MHz FSB of the processor limitation. You can check with a tool of information material such as Everest or PC Wizard 2008 for example the speed of the FSB.

  As far as I know, the laptop can be upgraded to 4 GB maximum RAM.

• Qosmio G30 - where can I buy cables for this?

  Hello

  VIDEO-IN cable
  Antenna adapter
  D-video output SCART

  I have problems to find them. Can anyone tell the part our or where I could buy them at plse?

  Mark

  Hello!

  I think that he should t be a problem to buy a cable to other computer stores. These are only external cables with standardized connector.

  But you should only purchase high quality cables. I don't have good experience with less expensive cord, for example without shielding.

• Qosmio G30 - 190 can't start

  I have the Qosmio G30 - 190 model No computer. PQG30E-039023FR

  There is often a blue if poster tell me there's an erros on the system
  I tried to restore from the TOSHIBA restore CD. but after you create the software image and eject the recovery CD, the Qosmio stop automatically. And when I restart that tell me Windows errors, the software is not installed try to install it again.
  I have change the memory to see if it is the problem, but something happened

  Let me know if you can help me to solve these problems, thank you in advance for your help.

  Ayaovi

  What do you mean "stop automatically"? The machine has been shut off instantly? Alternatively, windows closed down by itself?

  If it turns off instantly, then it might be the accumulation of dust in the heat sink causing it to overheat.

  You should test the RAM before reinstalling Windows. You can download the bootable Memtest on www.memtest.org CD ISO

  Hi mate

  Unfortunately, the graphics card is not editable in most cases, it welded s and he a part of the motherboard.
  But even you would be able to remove the chip on board additional parts like BIOS, etc. would not address the new chip.

• Qosmio G30-201: can I play HD movies with different region code

  Hi I have a laptop Qosmio G30-201 with the HD inside player. This area of the playback of movies HD 1 or is it stuck on region 2.
  Is not blocked is it possible to unlock it to play movies from all regions.
  This unit was purchased in the United Kingdom.

  Thanks Steve

  As much as I know HD-DVD movies do not support region codes.
  Support is free region code and that's why I think you should be able to watch a HD-DVD movie, BUT you need a DVD player special as WinDVD8 example

• Qosmio G30 - I can't update the BIOS

  I have a Qosmio G30 * PQG31A-01Y01F model number * purchased from the Australia.

  I downloaded the update to the BIOS (version 3.90) of the Australian from Toshiba Web site. But it still says "the computer is not supported. I know that this message appears when you try to update the BIOS to one lappy with another.

  Its frustrating because I am very sure that I downloaded the correct bios listed on the Australian site. It is very incompetent on the part of toshiba for not providing the correct bios of the same.

  Why cant they put an all .bin file. Now they are confused with that support, they have released so many model of qosmio worldwide

  I need this update bios because because it's a model that has been registered under the program repair GPU. Lappy so expensive and they come with a such blunder upward.

  It's strange. I found the same BIOS on another site of Toshiba, try this: http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/bios-20080911134528.zip

  PS. you have installed Windows 32-bit or 64-bit? Is it Vista or XP?

• Qosmio G30-175: can I receive DVB - T signals with Qosmio player?

  Hi all

  Is this only analog TV on the Qosmio player or can I use the DTV? (DTV fine in windows)

  Digital DVB works fine when started in Win Media Library but became only analog TV using only qosmio

  Thank you very much
  Franky

  Hello

  I'm sure that the Qosmio player receives DVB - T signals, but only analog TV signals.
  That's why you use MCE to watch DVB - T TV

• Qosmio G30-195 can burn HD-DVDs?

  I was under the impression that the "HD-DVD ROM" means read-only

  but Nero is showing me an option to write an HD DVD...

  Please help me

  PS: in any case, I don't see HD DVD discs for sale

  No, you can't burn the HD-DVD with this disc.
  AFAIK this HD-DVD player is capable of playing HD-DVD but does not burn.
  Anyway, the HD-DVD technology is very recent and now the readers of burner are not available.
