  What happened to them?

  We're sorry. The Qosmio G50 Series is no longer available in most retail stores,
  online retailers, dealers or ToshibaDirect.com. Words

  Just to let you know that I am a user of myself, and if you ask me now, I'm angry, why is this?

  1: my laptop leaves blocking down, once I played games upscale only times, very well on the low end, but don't forget not the Geforce 9600 is supposed to play as high-end games.
  I noticed on the back of that laptop heat is hot, know that I don't know what is the cause, but maybe fans are old?

  2:will Toshiba offer some services on this laptop just because its inactive?

  3: what does mean inactive anyway?

  I have to say one more thing, even if she has problems, I really appreciate the laptop, I just pray and hope it can be fixed, because I don't want to cry that I wasted my money on this kind of thing, maybe this will be my last Toshiba laptop if they continue like this, I understand that this is a forum eupore , but I like a North American buyer I have problems, good thing there are forums for such problems like these.

  I hope some of you can answer my questions.

  Hello Leone

  The text you posted has nothing to do with the service. If this model of laptop will not be offered for sale it doesn't automatically mean that there are no more service.

  If you have a serious problem with your Qosmio laptop, please contact nearest authorized Toshiba service provider and they will help you fix it. No problem at all.
  Believe me there is no reason to panic.

• Qosmio G50 will not complete the installation of Windows 7 64 bit

  Hello world!

  I recently wanted to updated my Qosmio G50 - 12f 32-bit from vista to 7 ultimate 64-bit. I did a clean install: formatted the c partition.

  Everything seemed to work fine until the screen "Setup is preparing your computer for first use. At first, I thought it froze just would not go further. Back to zero (in all modes) would get the same effect.
  But to my surprise and pleasure, she managed to pass this point when I desperately wanted to wait long enough for a miracle to happen. But the problems remain. The configuration process is right! REALLY! slow. I could painfully spend the first screens, like enter the name of the computer, activation screen, modes of security, but with a very long wait time between each. And every time he reaches this final screen of security modes that she would suddenly go to a BSOD:

  Driver power state failure
  STOP 0x0000009F (0xFFFFFA800193DD70, 0xFFFFF80000B9C518, 0 x 0000000000000003, 0xFFFFFA80029C8610)

  Please, anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?

  Of course, there should be a driver problem, but how do I update all the drivers without operating system running? I've seen such a feature in the repair of the installation DVD section, but it accepts only .inf files.
  And I can t find those anywhere on the toshiba support website. Only the .exe that you run from your operating system that is already running.

  In any case the Qosmio G50 was not as incompatible with 7-64 bit. So I'm a little confused here!

  Please help ^ ^

• 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.

  Lio

  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 G50 - 13R - add second HARD drive

  Hello

  I want to upgrade my computer.
  Here are the numbers:

  Product name: Qosmio G50 - 13R
  Product version: PQG55E-05C04RFR
  Product series number: 89063721H

  I have space for a second hard drive, but it is empty.
  No caddy, no connector.
  But the Intel Rapid Storage detects an empty 4 internal port.

  How to check what is the port?

  I did some research and found a document on the substantive content of my computer. It says there is a connector on the motherboard for a second hard drive, here are a few references in the document:

  CN1920 2nd SATA HDD (20 PIN) interface connector

  Is that the motherboard of my computer (see reference above) has the CN1920 connector?
  How verified?

  Greetings.

  There is a 2nd HDD bay because in the past, the Qosmio G50 is out with support for different hardware specifications and different hardware parts and obviously 2nd HARD drive Bay does not the HARD drive cable/connectors.

  The Intel ICH9M South Bridge supports 4 integrated controllers serial ATA Host, so the chipset should be able to handle 4 devices SATA (2 x HDD, 1 x ODD, 1 x eSATA).

  I searched on the internet a bit and discovered that the motherboard supports two controllers/connectors.
  The first HARD drive must be connected to the CN1900 connector SATA (23pin) and the 2nd HARD drive must be connected to the CN1920 (20pin). The STRANGE is connected to CN1910 (13pin)

  However, I think that it will not be very easy to update this unit with a 2nd HARD drive all must be dismantled and of course, you need compatible parts for these updates.

• Update of Qosmio G50-12 q

  I have a Toshiba Qosmio G50 - 12 equipped q of the Windows Vista Ultimate operating system.
  I asked the Toshiba if it weren't harming pc upgrade this system to Windows 8 and they said that it might be precisely the difficulties is that this pc do not have the necessary drivers.

  I wanted to ask if anyone of you have a pc like mine and did also to the Windows 8 upgrade and if he found problems to connect devices such as printer or USB hub or other

  Thank you

  @ valkyrie
  Usually, you should not have serious problems to help to win 8, even if the official drivers from Toshiba are not released for this series of portable.

  Most of the devices would be recognized by Win 8 automatically because the common drivers are part of the system Win 8.

  Of course, it could be possible that you will not be able to use some additional features laptop like multimedia keys or function due to lack of drivers Toshiba keys, but I think that this would not be a big problem to effectively use the laptop.

  I also think that you can try to install the drivers Win 8 of which have been released for other Qosmio series. Some drivers should work as well.

  Last but not least, you should also consider installing Win 7 as mentioned by Timox.
  The point is that Win 7 is similar to Vista, but it of much better than the early Vista operating system.
  Win 8 is OK, but it follows completely different design and use.

• Need new charger laptop for my Qosmio G50

  I have a Toshiba Qosmio G50 laptop that I bought a few years ago and the charger for it finally konked on me to a bending of the cord and intensive use.
  I tried to pick it up to a charger with the same specifications as the one I currently have. I think that the number of product because it is PA3658E-1AC3B and its specifications are as 120W, 6. 3A, 19V, 5.5mm/2.5mm.

  I was unable to find a charger with these specs and when I'm looking for other chargers with similar specs and so on, when the lists of compatible laptops come, my laptop is never in the list. Now I'm wondering if it's due to them because the laptop is actually inconsistent or due to the fact that it is rather quite old.

  In addition, no one knows what laptop computer charger, I might be able to use or specifications for them. As a charger with these specs would work for my laptop?
  Output: 19V 4. 74 a 90W
  End of the DC canon: 5.5 x 2.5 mm

  Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

  I put t know where you live but go to eBay and you will find appropriate charger. As far as I know, you can use any charger that is offered for the Qosmio G50.

• Qosmio G50 - 12F does not illuminate

  I got a Qosmio G50 - 12f
  No.: PQG55E-04C02YFR

  The problem is: when I plug it into the DC I got a white light on the photo card dc and a light orange on the picture of the battery.
  When I turn on the laptop, the white light turn off for 1 second (maybe) and return to the original position and the battery light turn off permanently.

  I tried to find answers on the web. What I find that is perhaps due to the power: dc or cable jack connector power (the one that goes from the dc Jack to the motherboard or the power Board of the battery under the mousepad...

  Well, I lost m

  Does anyone have the answer? I want to fix it myself.

  Thank you

  What happens when you remove the battery and try to start the laptop with DC power only?

• Qosmio G50 - 12 q - partition where Vista is installed

  Qosmio G50-12 q - Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit

  On which the drive HARD internal PC (C - F - D) is installed by the producer in case you newly wanted to install the system, but without the Vista DVD?

  Hello

  The Qosmio G50-12 q seems to be equipped with 2 hard drives.
  I guess the first HARD disk is partitioned into two partitions and the second HDD is not partitioned.

  So, Vista seems to be installed at the first disk, partition C.

  I think you want to retrieve the laptop using the HDD recovery procedure. Right?
  I found a nice documentation here:

• 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.

• 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
