• Qosmio G40: No sound on Windows Media player in Vista

  Hi, last week or so the sound has disappeared on my Windows Media Player but only on my Tv Tuner and DVD, the files from the hard drive are not affected. Everything was ok at first but now he even sound start.

  I tried to set up etc, but still no joy?

  The tv on the meter d tuner works very well but has limited options. Is there anything else I can do or try and if not is there any other program that I can use my tv tuner on where I can record etc?

  Thanks, I'm running Windows Vista on a Qosmio G40

  Hi guys

  You should take the recovery disc and needs to be reinstalled the operating system of the provided Toshiba DVD.
  Then visit the Toshiba European page and update the TV tuner and the audio driver.

• Drivers Windows 7 for the Qosmio G40-12 s

  I have a Qosmio G40 - 12 s with windows Vista 32-bit Edition full
  And I install a Windows7 Ultimate 32 bit instead of vista, before I had to download all the drivers in this link (http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp)
  I select these choices:
  Laptop > Qosmio > Qosmio G Series > Qosmio G40 > PQG40E > Windows7 32 Bit > ALL > ALL > English > search

  but I think that there is no version of Windows7 that vista has, for example: there are no drivers for Windows7 infrared but here one for Vista
  He is there not TEMPRO, ASSENT, silent acoustic, AMT, online Information product, Manager of remote control, Touchpad Driver, tiles for Mobility Center, etc... For windows 7!
  My Vista driver was 27 driver - windows 7 driver only 19!

  Driver 8 was missing in this link, we find that drivers?

  I find TouchPad driver and I found one for her, but I can't found pilot infrared and Manager remotely so my remote not working do not now?

  Please advise me!

  You are right. Some drivers are not available. I noticed the same thing for my Satellite A300.
  For missing drivers, you can install the Vista drivers.

  I did the same thing and everything works fine.

• I want to install Win XP on Vista on Qosmio G40 - 10F - need drivers

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio G40-10th which has Windows Vista.
  I want to switch to Windows XP but worry about what drivers I need and where can I get them?

  Also, I wonder if XP installation means that I would be able to use the Vista recovery disk I got with the Qosmio.

  Any help is very appreciated,

• Qosmio G40 - Intel Turbo Memory issue on Windows 7

  The Intel Turbo Memory does not work in my Qosmio G40 Windows 7. I tried different ways to install the drivers but only the work of the Intel Matrix Storage Console.

  If I try to install the full Pakage Robson, the material remains marked as a problem in the Device Manager and the computer crashes every time he goes into mode 'sleep'.

  Is there a way around this, or should I disable this feature (which was working under Vista before)? thanx

  Hello

  This feature isn t so important because he doesn't make a strong performance gain, but in your case I would try to update the BIOS. Maybe it will work or let's say that the computer goes into mode 'sleep' correctly again. The latest version, you can download the Toshiba site.

  What Intel driver, you have exactly? Have you tried the Toshiba site?

• Qosmio G40 - infrared chipset not detected by Windows 7

  I upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista and found that my infrared chipset (SMSC SIO1049 SuperIO chip) does not appear in Device Manager.
  According to this page, it should appear as an unknown driver (ACPI\SMCB0C0)
  http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd567986.aspx

  The IR remote control provided by Toshiba does not work (it used to work fine under Vista). All the world had the same problem B4? How to fix you (if you resolved at all)?

  Does this mean that Ineed to wait for the next update of the BIOS (my BIOS version is 2.20)?

  My computer is a Qosmio G40 PQG40 02201NCE.

  Hello

  If the device is not visible in the Device Manager, not even as an unknown device, then this means that the device does not exist or was not detected by the BIOS.

  Usually, the infrared receiver must be visible in the Device Manager under:
  Human interface devices - > infrared receiver SMSCIR

  In system devices, you should see the device consumer infrared.

  Don't forget that you have enabled devices hidden sow option perhaps of Device Manager, then you might see this

  Please also check the BIOS
  I'm not very well if the infrared device option would be listed in the BIOS, but you should check it m

• Qosmio G40 Windows XP - some drivers/utilities missing

  Dear all,

  I would be grateful if anyone can tell where I can get drivers/utilities for Windows XP for the following:
  -Flash cards (to make the combinations of work: switch between monitors, brightness, ets);
  -Shortcut keys on the keyboard {eleven buttons}.

  All the other drivers/utilities have been found/installed/proved to work correctly. XP seems to work a lot smoother and faster on this beautiful piece of hardware.

  Thank you for your help,
  Kind regards

  The utility of flash cards is only available for Vista.

  I looked on the page of the Toshiba driver and, unfortunately, but I didn t see the XP drivers for the Qosmio G40 at this time.
  I assume that you've found the XP drivers some currents such as graphics card or driver sound on 3 third-party pages. But to use the features of Toshiba as button of keyboard shortcuts, you will need a XP driver and tool designed especially for this laptop.

  Looks like the drivers are not available at this time and we will have to wait until XP drivers will be sorry, but I really put t see another possibility.

  Best regards dude

• 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".

• Need drivers of Windows XP Home for Qosmio G40

  Anyone who has links to Qosmio G40 xp drivers? I change from Vista to XP.

  Best regards Blakstad

  I t has not found drivers for the Qosimo G40, too.

  As said by Feliks, seek other pilot sites.
  Here some examples:

  -Intel chipset: [www.intel.com]
  -Realtek soundchip: [www.realtek.com]
  -WLAN driver: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/
  -Bluetooth: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/

  Maybe it works, but I think the Qosimo is fast enough for Windows Vista. I think that's the best choice.

  Have you already installed Windows Vista SP1? This, because Vista works better with SP1.

• Qosmio G40-127 - need windows XP drivers

  Hello.

  I just got my new Qosmio G40 and I want to install Windows XP Pro / Media center on this issue. I know it's possible, but I want to know wich drivers to use in order to operate correctly. I already had drivers laptopvideo2go nvidia, realtek, and chipsetdrivers. I need webcam, wireless lan, TV tuner, etc..

  Y at - there anyone out there who have a Qosmio G40-127 and made a WXP install and know where to find these drivers? I don't have not upgraded anything but RAM to 4 GB. Otherwise, it is like new.

  Thank you

  Hello

  You are right. The XP drivers are not available at this time on the Toshiba driver page. I didn't find it too. Looks like we have to wait...

  But listen;
  There are some XP drivers for another Qosmio series; G30 for example.
  You can try to install these unique pilots because many laptops are equipped with the same features and drivers may work too.

  The WLAN driver can be downloaded from the Toshiba WLan Portal:
  http://APS.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

  like driver BT:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/

  The LAN driver can be downloaded from the Intel page because as far as I know LAN chip is an Intel 82566MC(Nineveh MC)
