  • Qosmio G40 - 10Z - possible CPU upgrade?

    What processor can I put my Qosmio G40 - 10Z? I couldn't find a list and the motherboard is a "motherboard Toshiba" without a template or similar.
    I would like to change to a better processor, a quadcore would be well, is - it possible?

    My Windows 7 tells me to change the battery, but the battery is ok. Google says its due to Windows and could be solved by the BIOS updated. I have the newest

    Hello

    I doubt that the CPU upgrade would be possible. You should read this article:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    This error message is it exactly that you get Windows 7? Normally you get only a low battery notification, you need to Exchange or connect the power supply.

  • Qosmio G20 and Windows 7

    Hello

    I have an old Qosmio G20-115 that uses the RAID controller for two hard disks. I tried to install Windows 7 (RC1) and Windows Vista, but I'm still stuck at time of installation of Windows, detect hard drives. After reading the various reports from this forum and others sources on the web, I tried many times to get setup to detect the discs using drivers from various different sources, but nothing helped.

    Is there something more fundamental, that I hurt myself? What RAID parameters need to be defined in the BIOS when trying to install an OS? If someone managed to get Windows 7 (RC1) working on their G20? Someone at - it pilots have tested and they managed to get Vista/Windows 7 on their G20-115 s?

    For any help or suggestion would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    When installing Win7, you must have the RAID driver on a floppy disk or USB key. Win7 Setup prompts you for a custom storage driver.

    You can get the RAID for Vista driver on the Toshiba site. It should work in win7.

  • Security internet and Windows 7 Upgrade

    As a HP 9180 recent buyer, I also bought the package of Norton Internet Security 2009 for three years. I'm more than a little twisted to discover that NIS 2009 may / may require an upgrade to protect my computer from viruses and malware. Why didn't HP mention this when the option for the security software was offered? Surely, if I had known that this possibility I wouldn't have spent extra for three years.

    Is there anything for HP to present their cusomers about their obsolete defacto possiibly commercialization of security software?

    Thank you.

    Curve

    There is a very simple answer to what you state.

    You access the symantec web site and that you have a current subscription, you are entitled to FREE upgrade to NIS 2010 that works on vista and windows 7.

  • Qosmio G40 and S-Video input

    Hello my friends,.

    I have a problem here: (...)

    What I want is simple, in theory. I have a VHS VCR, I have a few bands I want to convert it to DVD. I noticed that G40 has a S-Video In, so what I did, buy a cable that is SCART on one side and the other is S-video, I plugged the VCR to the G40, supported to the play in the VCR button, Ulead factory began to Toshiba, but nothing happens, I can not save anything, even to get a picture... the problem is not the cable because I connected the VCR to the TV , the same way (with the same cable) and it shows fine.

    Does anyone have an idea how to do that? I'm really desperate, I searched Foruns and googlled it but could not get a response.

    Kind regards
    Ricardo Monteiro

    Ricardo is not a solution for you. The cable using S-video can only be used for the transfer of video signal.
    Do you have the picture without sound. I don't think so.

    I had similar experiences and I copied the old VHS tapes to my old Qosmio G30. Later, I converted the recorded material and created DVDs.
    My Qosmio G30 has antenna at the port and I plugged my VCR VHS to this port and transfer of video and audio signals. For example I started video on VHS VCR and started Windows media Center and scanned the channels and on channel 33, I saw my recorded material that comes from connected VCR VHS.

    I tried recording with Qosmioplayer and MCE. Using the two options, I was able to use the record option and have video content on the HARD drive.

    I don't know that the same thing can be done with G40. Check it out.

  • Qosmio F60 and Windows XP

    Hello

    I need to know if I can delete win 7 and install Windows XP on my Qosmio F60
    I am a student online and the software is not compatible with win 7 and IE8
    I need at least of the video, network and WIFI win XP drivers ASAP

    Thank you very much
    [email protected]

    Maybe your University must understand that time WXP disappeared and more people use Win7 or Vista.

    In any case, I just hope that you created the recovery DVDs using the preinstalled Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator. This DVD you can use later to install Win7. Be careful about this. If you install own OS like Vista or Windows XP Home edition, you will lose this option.

    Back to your question: Qosmio F60 is newer model laptop with supported Win7 only. For now WXP drivers are not available.

  • ProBook 650: Drive Partitions and Windows 10 upgrade

    Hello

    I'm here to find some information on Windows 10 because I want to upgrade my system, now it's Windows 7 Pro (64 bit). I downloaded the Windows ISO 10N Pro yet and before doing the upgrade, I'll create a complete backup of my drive using Macrium Reflect.

    I have now four partitions:

    1. Active NTFS, 500 MB system
    2. (: C) primary NTFS
    3. (: D) HP Recovery - NTFS primary
    4. (:) E HP Tools - primary NTFS

    In which partition Windows 10 installs?

    I have to choose, or it's an automatic installation?

    I should delete some of the partitions?

    W10 upgrade will remove one or more partitions?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    PS: how to check if the driver are compatible with W10?

    I upgraded to win10 of many PC Win7 - and everyone had some issues that needed to be overcome.

    Your plan to make an image with MR backup is the best approach, because, although Microsoft says that there is no risk in the upgrade of Win10, because they allow you to believe that you can always go back to your original OS and setup within 30 days, the ugly fact of the matter is that the Win10 GoBack feature turned out to be unreliable - and when it fails She can let the machines in a corrupt State - which is not always the case, it happens often enough to be a problem, but you will get no warning beforehand that he goes to the trash your PC!

    With regard to your questions:

    (1) installation partition: you already have 4 partitions at a higher level, so unless your drive is formatted in GPT (which is probably isn't), you WON'T get a meaningful choice about where to install Win10, because only the C: partition will be enough space.

    (2) deletion of partitions: while you can migrate HP tools stuff it into the C: partition and then delete HP_TOOLS, which really won't help much because this space is much too small to be useful.

    (3) with the recovery partition.  Don't count on that it works. The Win10 upgrade is known, in some cases, corrupt the partition of recovery that are stored by the OEM that built the original machine.  It's pretty much guarantee that no HP recovery will work. Thus, based on the recovery of Win7 partition back to Win7 is a mistake.

    Your backup of Mr. is safest and most reliable way to have a backup plan to return to Win7.  You do not mount the image to a restoration, instead, you start from media that you have created using MR, connect the external hard drive and then use the restore option to select the backup that you did.  So, be sure to exercise the option MR to create bootable media, you will need later to do a restore.

    Good luck

  • Qosmio G50 and Windows 7

    Sad to see the Australian website has no drivers and software for this model in Windows 7...
    EU for everything is on the site of USA.

    have 2 numbers well if someone could help it,

    1st edition Chicony Camera Assistant does not work cannot load the web camera drivers.

    2nd edition Toshiba graphic library does not work error gets DB connection failed.

    Any help is appreciated.

    > but the Australian model must use slightly different material than the Euro and the United States.
    The PQG55E series is very similar to the Australian series PQG55A.
    It s the same Chicony webcam module and the driver isn't different.

    > 2nd edition Toshiba graphic library does not work error gets DB connection failed.
    This software allows you to view a list of all files and subfolders in a specified folder, videos of index and read files. Usually this requires the installation of other software such as TOSHIBA HD Console as well as the TOSHIBA Quad Core HD processor driver

    These drivers are also from this page of the G50 driver:

    Hello

    I'm afraid that you can't do much. As far as I know this update allows PPV than flash cards (when you press the FN key) move a lot faster than before. Of course, this new version kills other applications. I can imagine someone Toshiba noticed that the same and the new update will be available soon.

    In the meantime you can try reinstalling both is not working tools solution.

  • Qosmio F50 and Windows 7 drivers

    Hello

    (1) it seems that Toshiba has released a few drivers, but my question is that to install and which is not necessary?

    For example by Pioneer Firmware update, what?

    (2) also, I noticed that there are many drivers Vista (approximately 100) but the Win7 version are much less (about 26) and therefore is that all?

    Thank you

    I checked the list of available drivers for your model laptop and in my opinion you should install all except for optical drive firmware.
    When everything is installed, observe the features of optical disc drive and let us know if you have noticed a few problems.

    Although pilots obviously much more useful are already integrated in Win7 and must not be installed also. This must be the reason why Toshiba offers less drivers.

  • Qosmio G40 - how to reconfigure the keys above the keyboard?

    Since the upgrade to Windows7, the buttons on the top of my G40 (TV, multimedia, Rec, Dolby, etc) don't work anymore. When I click on one, a pop-up window appears asking me to set up the button.

    Now, I've changed a single button to task wrong.

    (1) how can I change this back?
    (2) how can I get functions return when moving the cursor to the top of the screen (does not work either)

    Hello

    I think that you don t have to reconfigure the keys, you just need new version of Toshiba Value added Package which controls the multimedia keys.

    I checked the website of Toshiba Qosmio G40 and Windows 7 and there is a newer version that is compatible with Windows 7:

  • Qosmio G40 - webcam and windows live messenger

    Well I've had this problem before and was solved with the installation of Service Pack 1. Well now it comes back to haunt me again! Windows live messenger does not register the webcam. The cam works and I am registered in the control panel etc. It is only on live messenger it does not...

    As described above, I have a Qosmio G40 with Windows Vista Ultimate and windows live messenger.

    Live messenger is set to allow phone calls and Messenger live in general - but there is no exceptions for webcam in the Security Panel?

    Looks quite simply that the cam is not lit - I have a black screen with static...

    Any ideas to fix this?

    * Download driver Chicony Webcam drivers from Toshiba Web site section was updated. If you can't find an updated driver, try a new driver of another model of Toshiba.
    * Install the Service Pack 1 of Vista, or Vista Hotfix KB934374: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934374 (KB934374 is included in SP1)
    * Update your e-mail software (MSN/Yahoo Messenger, etc...)
    * If you have another program that can use the webcam (e.g. Skype), make sure that they are completely closed and not, sitting in the system tray.
    * Try to close the bar Assistant camera on the left side of the office.
    * To stop the Camera Assistant software from running at startup, run Regedit and delete HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run "Camera Assistant Software".
