• Qosmio G50 - repair windows from the HARD drive

  Hi all

  My laptop - QOSMIO G50 - needs a bit of cleanup, and I thought to reinstall from scratch.

  I know that I can use the "repair" function which is 'hidden' on the HARD drive that will get the pc to its original installation.

  But I have a few questions.

  1. I've upgraded to Windows 7 quite earlier. But if the built-in repair feature reinstalls the pc for initial installation, I guess I'll be back on VISTA and will need to upgrade to WIN7 manually?

  2. most important: when I got the laptop, the seller had installed, so when I started, the installation begins. Then, I had the choice to install the 32-bit version or 64-bit.
  I never expected to have 64-bit on the laptop so I chose 32-bit - and now I regret it enormously.
  Now, if doing so clean reinstall from the HARD disk, it will give me a choice between 64-bit or 32-bit new or if it simply with the 32-bit version, I chose the first time? Or can I do something else for you ensure that I get the 64-bit installed this time?

  Thank you.

  Hey,.

  Important to know would be if you want to install Vista or Windows 7 now...

  If you want to do a clean install of new, repair function is also deleted or let's say the entire contents of the HARD drive if you reinstall Windows recovery disk Toshiba.

  Some laptops has been equipped with a function for 32-bit and 64-bit, and if you reinstall Vista from Toshiba recovery disc you will again have this option.

• 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.

• Processor Quad-Core HD Qosmio G50 and gesture of the controller error

  Hello
  I have a Qosmio G50 - 10v. For gesture controller request from the Toshiba.I site, I installed a gesture controller driver tried the English and German version, but for the Quad Core HD processor shows error. The message is
  like the following"Im Toshiba quad core HD processor Fehler aufgetreten ist. (CODE = 0X800A0100)
  Later, I formatted the pc and reinstalled the processor image driver and motion controller. When I open a Toshiba DVD player and watch DVDs, Quad core does not work and quad core shows 0%. So I watch movies with low definition.
  Please help me...
  How can I install the Quad core HD processor and controller of gesture?

  The "Toshiba Quad Core HD processor" gadget works when I've been upgraded / decommissioning or other video processing in the "Toshiba graphic Video Library»

  To check this, click on the red arrow on the left side of the gadget, click on "library graphic video Toshiba", right click on a video and select "vidéo Processing", then try and upconvert or downgrade a video according to what kind of video it is.

  Simple treatment should see the upper left quadrant the gadget turn orange or red while showing a percentage. Complex treatment, perhaps using one of the other programs in the menu drop down the gadget can do all four quadrants of the gadget actively processing colors/percentage of changes. I saw all active quadrant during certain functions of video processing. I've not seen it activates when not video processing.

  The program that you are running appears in the white box in the gadget under "request of race."

• 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

  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.

• 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 G50 - Windows XP SATA Driver and BSOD

  Good evening to all...

  I bought a Qosmio G50 and am frustrated with Vista. I want to load XP 32 on the system. Here are the configuration information:

  Model name: Qosmio G50
  Part number: PQG55C-01R039
  OS version: Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium 6.0.6001 Service Pack 1
  BIOS version: Version 1.70
  CPU: Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU P7350 @ 2.00 GHz
  IDE Outspends: Intel(r) ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller
  IDE devices: FUJITSU MHZ2320BH G1

  I downloaded the driver SATA here: ['Intel(r) ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller' | http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProductID=2101&DwnldID=1675 9 & strOSs = 44 & OSFullName = Windows * % 20XP % 20Professiona l & lang = eng]

  The driver info indicated that it supports the "Intel(r) ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller"...

  I use a Windows XP Corporate CD with SP3 slipstreamed in there. I copied the SATA drivers on a floppy disk and use the F6 option to load the SATA drivers. I was able to select the correct driver, then proceed with the installation a little and then get a BSOD:

  Stop: 0x0000007B (0XF78D2524M, 0XC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

  Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

  Hello!

  > Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?
  Yes, you have downloaded the wrong driver.

  This BSOD is a known problem, then you can also find an article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3ben-us%3B324103&x=8&y=14

  Then take a look at the Intel Web site again and download another driver.

  Good bye

• Qosmio G50 - Windows does not shut down without memory stick inserted

  I have a Qosmio G50 running Windows 7. The pc does not stop unless I have my USB stick inserted. Without the USB, I can tell the pc to stop. Without the inserted stick, the pc will say that it stops and remains on the screen closed for 10-15 minutes and then restart.

  However, as soon as I put the USB into the USB port, the pc will stop within 2 seconds.

  It is not easy to understand the situation and explain why this happens.
  Qosmio G50 is not latest model cell phone, so I can't imagine that this strange question comes on the first day.

  Something like this can be done with the factory settings. The configuration, preinstalled software, background running applications and processes on your Qosmio OS are not known to us is not easy to help you with this.
  Somehow, I think that something running in the background blocks of the system. Unfortunately, I can't say what that would be.

  Check a bit.
  By the way: have you noticed the behavior even if you try to use standby or hibernation mode?

  Toshiba Qosmio G50-12 q - whit windows vista Ultimate 32 bit

  I could install windows 7 in replace of windows vista ultimate, unless they prove details incompatibility with device or another drive?

  The Toshiba site is written that the Qosmio g50 with windows vista Ultimate edition is compatible with the installation of windows 7, but a virtual test carried out on the microsoft site to verify compatibility or less has proved to a large number of incompatibility regarding the audio player to feel that they are unable to work once installed windows 7 etc.

  Hi Valkyrie,

  I m a bit confused about your ad, but it turns out that the Qosmio G50 supports Windows 7 because all the drivers and tools can be downloaded from the official website of Toshiba:

  Hello

• 8 GB of RAM on the new Qosmio G50/55 X 300

  Hi to you all. I was wondering how to increase RAM on the new qosmio (G50 and X 300 series) models
  If I remember well from 8 GB of RAM are supported only with a 64 bit OS but it looking Toshiba web all around the world that seems in fact only the French model has inside a 64 bit OS, but you will see in any kind of Qosmio this possibility.
  For example, in Italy, in fact you can buy only the G50-103 with Vista Ultimate 32 bit... so, how will increase memory up to 8 GB?

  Sorry for my English (I hope you understand it...!)

  I guess you have wondered how to have 8 GB with an operating system and not only how to increase physically, or? If you want to have Vista64 you can also get a machine IN your country and buy a Vista64. As the platform supports more than 4 GB of RAM you won't have many problems to have a machine with 8 GB of RAM.

  On the other side: do you really need a lot of RAM? Each piece of the RAM to 2 GB would be recognized, but after 2-3 GB you do not recognize even when you work with photoshop. 3 GB of RAM are absolutely enough and everything would be better in a server or 3D workstation that requires a lot of RAM because of these LARGE textures and models.

• Re: Qosmio G50 - 115 - can I connect a Xbox?

  Is it possible to connect an Xbox (or an Xbox 360) to a G50 so that it does not need a separate monitor?

  It seems silly if it does not exist with respect to a student that the G50 has everything - speakers, TV reception etc.

  Hello

  I n t have experience with a Xbox or Xbox 360, but I can say that's not possible.

  The Qosmio G50 and all the other laptops I know have only one video * output signal and not a port of entry. If the laptop screen can t be used as an external monitor.

  Sorry but I think you need a monitor for your Xbox :(

• Qosmio G50-12 X - Windows 7 performance index decreased

  After having changed the HARD and WIN7 32-bit drive to SSD and Win7 64 bit Windows Experience Index decreased:
  for processor - 6.1 to 3.9
  for memory (RAM) - 5.9-4.5.

  This isn't good, is it?
  Does anyone know what might be a reason?
  Does anyone have the same problem?

  All the official drivers for Win7 64 (chipset, video, etc.), tried to install different versions for other OS-did not help.
  PC: Qosmio G50-12 X (PQG55E).

  You have changed the system to 32 bit to 64 bit.
  There is a difference between 64-bit and 32-bit system and therefore the performance index will also be different.

  To be honest, I don t care about clean internal Windows experience index.
  Firstly this Index isn't very useful because any change in the system may affect the unique results. So the results are not very significant.

  If you want to get more details about Windows 7 performance index, I recommend this MS site:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/features/Windows-experience-index

  However, the upgrade of the SSD HARD drive is the best decision you could ever made.
  I also changed the HARD drive to SSD drive and the performance gain is huge
