Qosmio G30: Option unavailable SPDIF in the Audio properties

Qosmio G30, SigmaTel HD Audio Codec, running XP 2

I'm looking for audio signal through the built in coaxial to the GPA. No signal. When I go to sounds and Audio devices > advanced > Volume Control Panel /Properties there is no cursor for spdif badette, in the list of things to show in the advanced Panel, or a way to put in operation. Similarly, in sign of SigmaTel there no option to route via spdif.

In addition, the advanced controls is grayed out in the Volume Control Panel.

What did I miss? I can't for the life of understand me why there is no signal nor any how to activate spdif in this machine.

In addition, in the Media control Devices Properties box, it is this list:
(MCI) Audio CD
(MCI) Microsoft Video for Windows
Midi sequencer (MCI)
Sound (MCI)
mciqtz32.dll

Who say that they are functioning normally. Any ideas why I can't find the spdif option?

Thanks in advance.

Hello

The SPDIF socket is supported on the Qosmio G30. It s the same taken as the headphone jack.
To use this SPDIF you must connect the audio amp with the laptop via a special SPDIF cable.

What you could do is to start the DirectX using the command; Dxdiag

There you can check if the SPDIF is available or not.

  • Qosmio G30-137: how to change the English language OS?

    Hello!
    I just bought Qosmio G30-137 of the Germany and he has Windows Xp MCE in German language.
    The recovery disk is also in German also. I would like to know if someone can provide me with the recovery in the English language disc or can someone tell me step by step what I need to do to make a format for install Windows Xp MCE version in English and what programms I probably need because I'm a newbie...

    The laptop has also two HARD drives with RAID technology.
    I can't wait to hear promptly.

    Hello

    Windows was delivered in German language, because you bought in Germany. You cannot change the language to English without the recovery or the original version of the Windows operating system English English CD.

    You can install the original Windows operating system but before you install the new OS you need to install the RAID driver.

  • Qosmio G30 (PQG31E) - reinstall Windows from the original disc

    I bought my Qosmio several years back, and I think not, it is still covered by any warranty.

    Recently, my system files on the hard drive of Windows (C :) has been corrupted (or the hard drive has bad sectors; whatever), and chkdsc crashes when I'm trying to fix it.) I would like to reinstall Windows, however, when you start resuscitation DVD, the installation will stop with the following error message:
    "Error: setenv file x:\setenv.ini or x:\tools\setenv.ini not found".

    Indeed, the file doesn't seem to be present, when you look at the filesystem x:\ from the console. However, it is present when viewing the Windows DVD.

    I found after help here: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB0302U10000R01.htm, however, bios of Qosmio is not as bios of the Satellite. I can't find the settings provided.

    How to fix this error in Qosmio?

    Qosmio G30 is old laptop model, and may not be covered by the standard warranty. He's too old.

    This Toshiba document, which describes certain problem more recent Satellite L500D Pro and Satellite L550D Pro, has nothing to do with your old laptop Qosmio.

    I also believe that the HARD drive can be troublemaker to verify HARD drive using different tools and following the advice of s of Akuma.

  • Qosmio G30-162 - how to handle the dead battery?

    I use my Qosmio G30 plugged into the mains. The battery is exhausted, and so I lost the use of the computer. What I need to replace the battery, or is there any method of conversion of the PC for network use only? All advice appreciated... Senior user.

    Hello

    No, in this case, you can repair the battery t and you need a spare battery because the battery is not repairable.

    > or is there any method of conversion of the PC for network use only?
    Hmm I put t know what you mean, but you don't need a battery. Alternatively, you can use the laptop with AC/DC adapter only. That s no problem. :)

  • QOSMIO G30 - RAID-1 is GRADIENT, the search for a solution

    Hello

    My QOSMIO G30 is confirgured in RAID1. Today the second hard drive failed, unless I hard when I saw "RAID-1 is DEGRADING" displayed on the screen to power on the computer. Once booted Vista Ultimate, I get an error indicating that the Toshiba Raid Service had stopped unexpectedly (this message is also recorded in the system event log). "Unable to get the State raid console display."

    Go to the BIOS Setup, I see that the secondary hard drive is in the State has failed while the first is in the online state. The two hard drive are marked "RAID-1.

    I restarted after removing the second hard drive in the system. Of course, I always get the message from the bios. Vista boots normally and then I get an alarm saying the raid is broken. It's perfectly anticipated if only the second hard disk is now deleted.

    I connected the hard drive to a SATA Transcend USB controller and it work perfectly! Then I reinstalled the hard drive in the computer. After the reboot, the raid service accident again. The first hard disk is functioning stil and I made a backup full, just in case.

    I searched a lot for a procedure restoring the second hard drive operation, but I've not found anything really helpful.

    Go into the BIOS, if I change the disc to nothing else than "RAID-1" mode, I said that I have to reinstall the OS. I don't want to do that. I want to back the second hard drive in operation. I want to have the mirror restored from the first hard drive on the second hard drive, without losing the contents of your hard drive.

    Any help is appreciated.

    This with changing RAID mode and install of the OS is just because when you change the RAID in the BIOS operating system must be installed again. RAID info should be saved into the MBR.
    What RAID driver and RAID utility do you use?
    One last thing: is your laptop preinstalled with recovery Toshiba (32 bit) image?

    > I want to put the second hard drive in operation.
    To be honest, one thing is not understandable to me. Are you trying to get old HDD (a second) working again or you have new HARD drive (as a second) und try to have mirrored hard drives again?
    Have two exact hard drives the same capacity?

  • Qosmio G30-204 - how to replace the screen?

    Hi people. I have a Qosmio G30-204.

    The screen to the right corner is not sure as the rest of the 3 corners of the screen.
    How can I tighten again?

    Where are the screws on the screen?

    Hello

    Have you tested the laptop to an external monitor? Perhaps it is not a problem with the monitor and your graphics card or card mother is causing this issue.
    Check it!

    Moreover I replaced didn't a computer laptop screen myself again because it s too difficult and delicate in my opinion. You need to remove a large number of screws and you should be very careful that you n t destroy a part or material of the laptop.

    I think the best way is to contact a local laptop technician you. They can try to help you and they have enough experience for the exchange of material on a laptop computer.

  • Qosmio G30 - shaded black lines on the screen

    Hello

    I bought the Qosmio G30-116. Great set, but it is a question. On the bottom of the screen there are two dark outline shaded (the brighter the background color is more wisible it gets.)

    It is very annoying, I bought it mainly for movies. I took it to the shop where I bouth it but they said it is normal and have all the toshiba 17 "screen. But I saw 3 other models with 17 "(qosmio résolution reste la même) and none of them did."
    What should I do? Is it really normal? Thank you

    Puuuhhh. Hey pitorek, it's really not easy to tell if it s a malfunction of the display.
    But I think that this question could be answered by an authorized technician.
    I think you should contact the service partner in your country (I guess you are just the Poland ;)) and explain the situation guys.) I think that you need to send this screenshot.

    Eventually, you will get a replacement. But I put t know if it could be an inverter fault or fl display or something different.

  • 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.

    The screen has a resolution of 2560 x 1600.

    My problem is that my laptop Toshiba graphics card can run an og resolution 1900 x 1200.

    If so, what graphics card will recommend you?

    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 - 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

  • Qosmio G30-137 - video card problem - the bug of vertical lines

    Hi members,

    Today my Qosmio G30-137 started to make trouble showing vertical lines that look like this:

    ''''' ''''''' '''''' '''''''
    '''' ''''''' '''''' '''''''

    After having used the product Windows disk recovery could not start early and came up with a blue screen with the error code:

    + failure of page in the nonpaged area STOP 0 x 00000050 (0xC09C3044, 0x00000000, 0X804DA90AA, 0 X 000000002) +.

    Basically, this indicates that the RAM - memory Cache L2 or preserved is dead. But I also learned that the graphics card can be smoked.

    After the blue screen, you will not get the system to normal operation, no matter what you try.

    I strongly advise to check if your Qosmio is under warranty and see your reseller for Exchange. Fortunately I bought mine 2006/06/06 so its still under warranty (even if only a left view days).

    Additional information: another Member of this forum has had a similar problem and noted that the entire motherboard must be changed causing costs of USD 700.00 and more!

    I will let you know what I found myself with.

    The Q

    Unfortunately, this sounds like a serious problem of material as other members suggested, the GPU (graphics card) may be defective and therefore replacement is necessary.

    The point is that the GPU is soldered on the motherboard and it of not possible to remove the graphics chip of the card. In most cases, the entire motherboard must be replaced to solve graphic problems.

    In my opinion, you should contact your ASP as soon as possible.
    Technicians should be able to help you to explain the situation and to issue and ask for later handling.

    Good luck buddy

  • Qosmio G30: How to turn on the extended desktop?

    It is possible to extend the desktop on the screen of the laptop and and external monitor when connected to an external monitor? I see in the manual that he talks with the "simultaneous" external display and the monitor to the laptop, but I need her to be not only "reproduced" and "extended" on both monitors for both monitors.

    In addition, these two monitors can operate with different resolutions (for example, 1280 x 1024 on the resolution of the laptop standard and external)?

    It is also possible to drive two external monitors of the single monitor out (I do not, but thought I would ask)?

    Thank you

    Phil

    Hello

    Of course, it should be possible to activate the extended desktop.
    Go to the display properties. Then, choose the number of Monitor 2 and choose the option to extend my desktop on this monitor
    It is also possible to use different resolutions.
