  Hi mate,

  where´s so the problem? Just put new batteries in your machine and begin to control your computer with the remote control. Your portable computer with an infrared port that communicates with the remote and usually such device is automatically recognized by windows.

  May I ask what operating system do you use? XP or Vista?

• Satellite P850 - question about infrared port

  Hello

  I have Windows 8 Pro installed on my laptop and I downloaded all the drivers and everything works well outside the infrared. I've looked everywhere on the internet and I can't find a remote to use with this laptop (especially on the Toshiba site).

  I installed the latest ENE CIR driver (v4.1) as well as the Manager of Toshiba remote (v3.1.0.1). I looked in Program Files to open the command handler Toshiba remote but when I click on the program to open... Nothing happens (including in the notification area).

  So my question is can I actually get a working remotely with this laptop at all, and if not then, what is this infrared port for because I don't find anything on my computer to actually use with/for?

  Thanks for your help: p

  Hello

  Some Satellite P850 models are equipped with the control distance and its possible to use the remote control with Windows Media Center to play discs or videos, see photos and watch recorded TV shows.

  Models who don t understand the a remote controller are * NOT * equipped with an infrared receiver for laptop cannot operate with a remote control.
  The remote was not part of the package for your portable computer does not support the infrared receiver and the Toshiba Remote Control Manager and ENE CIR driver installation was therefore unnecessary

• Question about warranty for Qosmio G30

  I bought my Qosmio G30 in Dubai on July 07. The warranty is valid for 2 years. I travel in Egypt and currently here for a few weeks. The graphics card is out on this subject. I had a friend contact the authorized dealer here in Heliopolis, Egypt, because they don't have staff speaking English.

  They said that they charge me 10% on parts when the warranty says toll-free.
  I sent them an email and they did not.

  Anyone has any advice or a number I can call to get my phone fixed?

  See you soon

  What to say boyfriend if your warranty is valid, then the laptop needs to be fixed for free usually cover all replacements!

  In most countries, you will find one or more authorized Toshiba service providers.

  Please check the Toshiba global ASP from database:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-> support download &-> find an authorized service provider

  From here, you can choose an ASP that is responsible for your country.

  Good luck

• Question about updating the BIOS for Qosmio G20

  I downloaded the updated the BIOS of my pc, not the Qosmio, the instructions say it will unpack into 3 files, one being a floppy disk installation. When I unzip on my desktop pc, it makes a file that s too big for a floppy and he won t unzip further because it locks up my pc.

  Is it safe to make it work on my desktop pc it can unzip then in the three files and this will affect my BIOS or y at - it somewhere that I can download the floppy part on its own to load on a floppy?

  Hello

  Just a question;
  You have downloaded the Qosmio G20 BIOS on the desktop computer, unpacked and now you want it please on the diskette in the floppy drive.
  Is this good?

  So now my suggestion;
  Firstly that the Qosmio G20 BIOS and other BIOS Toshiba cannot be updated using the floppy! This isn't traditional BIOS!
  The BIOS from the Toshiba page must be updated when the Windows operating system is running!

  By the way: you can unpack the BIOS on your desktop computer, but don t try to run all files, because the bad BIOS can damage the motherboard ROM module!

  Hello

  First of all, you are right. This very nice laptop s. I wish I would have a.
  Good on your problems:

  1.), you should try to change the display resolution. It would be very interesting to know if the black dots remains on the screen. In addition, I put t think that it s a pixel dead issue because you don t have problems if watch you movies.

  2.) have you used a Qosmio Player or a MCE? You should try to start the Qosmio player and try to launch a new search for TV channels. In the manual, you will find a detailed description of a connection and the use of the Q drive

  3.) have you activated the Bluetooth with FN + F8 key combination?
  Please check this post how to use a Bluetooth device:

• Question about dual OS on Qosmio G20

  Have purchased a Qosmio G20 by the NHS. However the computer has been recreated to all machines include Win Xp, Office 2000, patches, check virus etc. to allow him to sit on the Exchange Server. Lost all data which however library, Qosmio Player. I don't know re-install by CD revovery discs. Can it work on dual OS, if I install on another partition? Help!
  HE says they can re-create the image to the characteristics of the original, but won't be able to sit through the network.

  Options?

  Hello

  If you want to recover your system first you must install the Qosmio Player, Media Center, and then the OS. The Qosmio player erased all your files on the HARD disk if you install the operating system first. In addition, you can use your laptop with dual operating system. You need to create a primary partition and you can install the second operating system. To create the partition, you can use partition Magic 8. It s interesting a tool.

• Question about backup of the partition on the Qosmio G20

  Hi everyone, I was wondering is it possible to get the backup of your hard drive or the partition on qosmio g20? I tried the real picture, and ghost, but they could not get access to the qosmio scsi disks, when I ve checked toshibas recovery dvd I saw it is changed the version of norton ghost, so they must be necessary loading drivers on the start time of recovery disc, because I install a lot of software and change the config. I want to save my disk hard once everything is done.
  can anyone help?

  Hello

  Some time ago, I did some ghosting of Toshiba laptops, I have never had any problems. Perhaps there may be conflicts, if you are using RAID technology, or the Qosmio player on the first HARD disk area hurts.

  Sorry I can't give you more help.
  Good luck!

• Question about memory upgrade and warranty - Qosmio G20

  I'm looking to upgrade the RAM in my Qosmio G20, but if I buy little ram in a store and fix myself (replacing the old RAM) void my warranty? (it is still covered by the extended warranty now)

  Don t worry! You can upgrade the memory and the guarantee will be cancelled not!
  You can do it yourself. It is very easy and I presume that the detailed statement is in of the Qosmio G20 user manual.

  Give me your advice and experiences with qosmio and thanks in advance for your answers.

  Hello

  I only ever saw a computer laptop with everything you needed (desired) functions and features.
  The Qosmio laptop is a high-end device and you can watch TV (digital TV signal case). The Qosmio support the Qosmio player. This feature allows you to play movies, music, etc, not to mention windows.
  It supports the PCMCIA port, and you can use another type of PCMICA cards with different functions.

  You asked for the best Qosmio. Well, the new Qosmio series at the moment is a G30 and F30.
  You should check the properties of this two Qosmio series.
  As a general rule, in my opinion, it's a good choice to use the Qosmio. But you know it's your choice.

• Qosmio G20: Question of Media Center Receiver - recovery question

  As the abvoe really, I usually leave my computer running from one day to the next day and yesterday I went on it to find that I had 80 MB hard drive (60 GB HDD) to the left. Error messages had popped up and a record of these was recorded in the folder pchealth, under userdumps, or something like that. Anyway I deleted 58gigs with a value of these userdumps, but the same error message kept popping up.

  It was a mistake with the Media Centre receiver, but I don't quite know what it is, but it was founded in the ehome folder which I think is located in the main folder of Windows.

  I have been into msconfig and stopped the ehhome.exe to start but that seems to ruin the tv/video within the media library settings.

  I recently installed the codec and divx player to play divx movies.

  I was wondering is that it would be more prudent to use the CD recovery and re - install windows and the software and create a restore point, and then install the codecs to see if the same problem arises, or if someone has had this problem and it heals.

  Finally, I actually ran the recovery cd to the above, but when the cd starts the first line on back said something like, 'running Setup for windows 98'. XP is certainly on the 98 and no recovery cd?

  Can someone please confirm this for me and all the answers to the above problems.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  I can t believe that Windows 98 is placed on the recovery CD.
  AFAIK the Qosmio G20 was delivered with the MCE window.
  There is no recovery of Win98 CDs for Qosmio units.

  In my opinion, this message occurs due to RAID or other drivers that load at the beginning.

• Qosmio G20-139 - Ram upgrade question

  Hello

  If the manual indicates that only 2 GB are possible then you can move the RAM only to 2 GB (2 x 1 GB module)

  I thing the laptop supports the Intel 915 PM chipset and it supports 2 GB of RAM.

• Question of Qosmio G20

  This is the worst phone I've ever had buying it was a mistake and I will never buy a Toshiba a new.

  Hmm I put t agree with you friend
  I got the Qosmio G20 in the past and I was really happy with this laptop.
  It was my first powerful multimedia notebook and I was satisfied.
  I had some other laptop manufacturers happened, but no one was so powerful as a Qosmio...

  Now, after two years of use I sold that baby because I bought the G50.
  It supports more than features such as the G20 and supports the Toshiba Quad Core HD CPU, which was the main reason for the passage of the G20 to the G50.

  I work with many multimedia applications and it is a dream.

• Qosmio G20-123 with two questions (WIFI AND ELECTROSTATIC)

  I BOUGHT THE QOSMIO G20-123 ON 30 OCTOBER 2005, FRANCE.
  IT'S THE SECOND QOSMIO I (I BOUGHT THE FIRST QOSMIO G10-126 OF FRANCE IN JANUARY 2005 AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY FINE). NEEDLESS TO SAY THAT I ONLY BUY TOSHIBA BRAND FOR MY LAPTOP SINCE THE YEAR 2000.

  UNFORTUNATELY, THIS NEW QOSMIO G20-123 HAS TWO PROBLEMS.
  I WILL ADDRESS THE TWO ISSUES AND THE RESPONSE THAT I RECEIVED FROM TOSHIBA LEBANON (WHERE I LIVE) I HAD THE EXPERIENCE AND THEY HAVE VERY GOOD TECHNICIANS AND SERVICE.

  FIRST PROBLEM: WIFI CONNECTION
  I HAVE THE APPLE AIRPORT EXPRESS AS ACCESS POINT, WHEN I CONNECT THE QOSMIO WIRELESS ACCESS point IT STARTS WITH a SPEED OF 54 Mbps THEN IT COMES down to 1 Mbits/S.i. HAVE to PRESS THE BUTTON REPAIR so that the speed is up to 54 Mbps, and then a few minutes later, it comes down again once at 1 Mbps.
  SO FAR I HAVE NO RESPONSE FROM TOSHIBA ON HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.

  SECOND PROBLEM: FIELD ELECTROSTATIC AROUND THE SCREEN

  WHEN I TOUCH THE METAL OF THE LCD FRAME, THERE IS A LOAD ELECTROSTATIC, FLUCTUATING TENSION ALL AROUND.
  IT SEEMS THAT IT LACKS A PLUG OF EARTH (EARTH) SOMEWHERE... I'VE EVER SEEN AN ADAPTER TOSHIBA WITH A SHEET CONTAINING 3 HEADS (EARTH).
  SO FAR THIS PROBLEM TOO HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED.
  ALSO AS I MENTIONED HIGHER, MY OLD QOSMIO G10-126, WHICH IS PLACED NEXT TO EACH OTHER, USING THE SAME ACCESS POINT AND THE SAME ELECTRICITY INTAKE, AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY WELL WITHOUT THESE PROBLEMS. WHAT SOMEONE HAS THESE PROBLEMS?
  CAN YOU HELP ME SOLVE THEM?

  Thank you

• Qosmio G20: Questions on MCE Recovery CD/DVD

  A few months back, I bought this laptop Qosmio G20. It s cool. I live in Asia where media center edition is not launched with this series. I have a Windows XP home edition with this laptop. Can someone tell me if it is possible for me to format this OS and install MCE on this laptop? And where I could get a recovery cd/dvd edition of Media Center? What is the procedure to install Media Center Edition of restore cd if I get a? And someone wants to share their media center edition cd recovery with me would be great.

  pls contact me on this email address [email protected]

  Thank you very much (:)

  Hello Anand

  AFAIK only devices with tuner TV have installed MCE and you can get the MCE OS recovery CD if you bought it with the Toshiba unit. If your laptop comes with Windows XP Home you can only get this form of recovery CD service partner. However, you can use the original cd of Microsoft Windows MCE. Then you can try to download all of the necessary drivers from the Toshiba site.
