• Q. G20-117: how to connect to a digital antenna (DVB - T decoder)

  Hi everyone, hope you can help me with some tips and tricks to connect the Qosmio G20-117 computer to a digital antenna (DVD-T set-top box) from Samsung.

  The problem is that the connection with the coaxial cable is really very bad, so I'm wondering how to connect this receiver with a cable SCART original...

  Thank you!

  Erik

  Hello

  As far as I know original SCART cable can be used just for the signal and not the signals in. In my opinion, you must connect the external device to your Qosmio use composite cable. Check it with Qosmio player. Scan of the channels and a single channel should be based.

  Good luck!

• Graphics driver installation problems - Qosmio G20 PQG21

  Try to install the latest graphics driver (available on the website of toshiba in the United Kingdom) produces an error message this file NV4_mini.sy is unreadable, even if it's there. Any ideas?

  I tried several times to download and decompression in various places. Incidentally, do toshiba have no technical support at all, or is it left to their customers to provide free of charge to each other - they don't seem to have any method of contact on their site?

  Have you downloaded the graphics driver on the right for the right OS and you're sure you Qosmio G20's series of PQG21?

  Try to download the driver from this page:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  The installation process is very easy. After the decompression of the files, you must start the setup.exe or if missing the setup.exe, you can install the diver from the Device Manager.

  Hello

  Are you sure that your G20 was delivered with a DVB - T tuner and analogue TV tuner not only 100%?
  As far as I know the g-20 was delivered with a different hardware configuration

  But if you camera supports DVB - T tuner, so I think that digital signal is not strong enough to receive the digital channels.

• Qosmio G20 - sound and drivers tv tuner (digital)

  Hi all

  I recently purchased a Qosmio G20 (490ls) to the Japan and nothing else that problems have had so far.
  The original operating system that came with the computer is Windows XP Home Edition (Japanese). I can't read Japanese, but I have an English version of Windows XP MCE, so I don't think it would be a problem.

  I could not install it correctly so I delivered to a technician and he accidentally deleted all (OS, drivers, etc) and I don't have a recovery of the original disc.

  in any case, I gave him a new technology to install and they're almost finished except they lack 2 drivers - audio driver and tv tuner driver. European drivers are analog and do not work on the Japanese version, however, it needs digital drivers.

  I desperately need a "digital sound driver" and a "digital tv tuner driver", if someone could help me out or point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated =)

  Thank you

  Hello Michael

  I'm very happy you're here. Maybe you can give us some very useful information. I heard that just TV tuner to the Japan from be used worldwide without restriction standard.
  Do you know something?

  Maybe this is the reason why you can't set it up properly. I am sure that the driver for your device is designed only for the Japanese market and it is possible that our pilot European doesn t work properly. Check the driver of OUR download site

• Qosmio G20 - update Tuner TV digital?

  Hello

  I have the Qosmio G20 and unfortunately it only support analog TV. I wrote to the Japan Toshiba here and they said that it is not possible to upgrade the G20 to digital television.

  It is the official manufacturer of advice, but as I know from experience, there is always another way around these things using third-party hardware and software.

  Anyone have any ideas on how this could be done?

  Hello

  The Qosmio G20 series was delivered with different hardware compatibility.
  Some of the G20 has been delivered with a TNT antenna + analog hybrid TV Tuner and DVB - T and other G20 supports only analog TV.

  Well, if your computer laptop doesn t supports digital Tv then you can try to use the tuner TNT + external.
  I sure you will find plenty of m offers in the internet.

• Integrated digital televisions Qosmio G20 156

  My husband has a Qosmio G20 156.
  Can someone tell me if there is available on this model digital TV reception. I hope to get a USB DVB - T for father's day, but looking at the specifications, it indicates that it has integrated digital capabilities.
  I am sure however if his machine didn't and then we would have already plugged!
  Can someone clarify for me, as I would like it to be a surprise.

  Hello

  According to the website of specification Qosmio unit was delivered with Tuner TV FREEVIEW + analogue hybrid and DVB - T antenna.
  I don t know where do you live, but the fact is that you cannot receive digital signals everywhere. The signal must be strong enough to receive digital channels.

• Qosmio G20-139 digital TV. [TNT] Freezes

  Hi all
  Just had a G20-139... and I love it! BUT having a problem with Digital Tuner. The digital picture freezes for a few seconds at a time. and sometimes, he says that he has lost the signal. However I know that the signal is good. When you look at it with my normal [TNT] tv. There is a slight delay in the image received on the G20.
  The image quality on the G20 IS SUPERB.
  I have the latest version of the driver [1.02.1930]. Not tried the analog photos yet...

  I wonder if anyone has had the same problem and if it
  has all the answers!
  It's one thing to Windows? or the processer get too high workload. ????
  Everything on "MY TV" works very well and it would be fantastic if this problem could be solved.

  Thanks a lot for the imformative forum.
  see you soon

  Hello

  You are right; Qosmio G20 is portable really nice. But why are you sure that the signal is good (strong) 100%? Did you use another digital tuner to compare the signal reception?
  Did you use MCE or a Qosmio Player?
  Maybe the digital tuner really loses the signal.

  I found a really nice article on HDTV in Windows MCE:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/MCE/expert/HDTV.mspx
  There is a patch:

• Qosmio G20: Is there a hidden partition on HDD1 for QosmioPlayer?

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio G20 and I noticed that the BIOS indicates HDD1 95 GB HDD2 is 100 GB (as it should). Is there anyone else who have experienced this problem or is my HDD1 damaged or is there a hidden partition?

  If there is a hidden partition - how to remove? (I really don't see the point with QosmioPlayer).

  / Henrik

  Hello

  AFAIK the Qosmio Player is pre-installed on the hidden partition.
  It is perhaps a reason for different size of HARD drive.

  The disk format HARD completely should remove the hidden partition and Qosmio player. But this procedure is not recommended.

• Qosmio G20 = video cable component and videos in high definition with Pinnacle

  Dear everybody
  I bought my Qosmio G20-120 of the Poland that came with D video cable SCART. This cable is only capable of transferring video signals (CVBS) which is pretty useless, because Qoismio already has a S-video out... What is the best simple video production I can get to SCART.
  According to www.toshiba-europe.com Qoismio is supposed to have video output component. But it comes with cable SCART instead. I always try to make this component video cable D-video of the Distributor. If I don't succeed, does anyone know if and where I can buy this cable in Europe? Or is it possible to make a video component with the D-video out D-video cable with cable SCART?
  Everyone last tried the channels high definition DVB-S on Qoismio using USB 2.0 DVB - S TV Card.Any opinions on Pinnacle PCTV 400e?
  Thank you

  Hello

  Sorry, but I don t agree with you. SCART in my opinion is always better than S-Video. As far as I know cable SCART can transfer image and sound and picture just S-Video. Am I wrong?

  In my view, it's great that laptop Qosmio has two video ports and each use can make a choice.

  Another way your ad is a bit confusing to me. Qosmio G20 includes a section on the port (D-video) and as far as I know the original cable must be provided. You can see on this page http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB4A00TK000MR01.htm

  Using this cable you can easily connect your laptop to the TV.

• Downloading and installing Tuner driver - Qosmio G20

  Excuse my ignorance, but I downloaded a file zip on the Toshiba site containing files for installing a tv tuner driver (date updated 11.24.05) for my Qosmio G20 - 139 (PQG21E-01500NEN). The instructions say: '... .cochez the contents of the zip file for details of installation, but I can't find/identify a file that provides instructions on how (there are a few I clicked on this offer a warning about opening files, so, being a novice in these things, I chose to not continue).

  Can anyone advise me on what file contains the installation instructions, or how I should go about installing this driver?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Hi Eduar

  I t's not done this before, but as you can see there is no any file setup.exe and install the driver on the usual way. Go to device manager, chose the device and properties you can use the option of installing the driver.

  You can also start the Add Hardware Wizard.

• Qosmio G30 model Japanese and Digital tuner

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio G30-593ls which is a Japanese model. I know it has a digital tuner and I want to watch to watch TV in Australia on the Qosmio.

  So far, I have the right cable and were able to get the 5 analogue channels and watch these by Microsoft Media Center.

  But the analog channels are disappearing in a few months time and I prefer digital anyway.

  I was not able to get all the digital channels. I don't have the Toshiba software that I updated to win7 myself.

  My question is:

  Do I need to use a box office to watch digital TV on the Qosmio in Australia?

  Any help is greatly appreciated.

  Pat.

  As far as I know the TV tuners in laptops vary by country material so I put t think you can use this internal tuner in the world.
  For this reason, I believe that you need an external device for watching digital TV in Australia.

• 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.

• Qosmio G20 beep a screen much and dimming - why?

  Sometimes my Qosmio G20 begins beeping very much and reduce the brightness on the screen.
  This happens while it is running on the current and with the option of putting to the highest level.
  Simoultanesly there is some blue lights above the keyboard that will start to blink.
  The only way to stop this behavior is to press the button under the flashing blue light and then go into a control panel handle power settings. To do that I have to change the brightness, press on apply, restore the brightness and press on apply again. After that, it can work for a long time before the next incident.
  I have the latest Windows updates, I have an anti virus installed, and I remove spyware installed, so I don't think that those who are to be suspected.

  This happens usually when the PC play a film, but occasionally, sometimes while I play a game or when I use it for work.

  Any help will be appreciated.

  Hello

  I recommend checking out Toshiba's energy saver.
  Select your power mode and check the action of setting parameters.
  Please check the settings of the alarm level.
  You should take a look also on the basic settings. There, you can control the brightness of the screen.
  Please keep in mind that the device uses patterns of Toshiba power saver in the Windows power options properties.
