Replacement of the Qosmio F30-117

Any body knows how to get full 60 GB of space on the secondary hard drive.

I sent my laptop to be repaired because the hard drive was faulty. Now I'm back and I tried to re - install recovery disc. Due to the clear instruction how to use the recovery CD, I run the CD two or three times. But when I checked both drives it software installed on it without using the RAID option. I formatted the D: / in car, but it displays 55.8 GB instead, 60 GB and the disk label changed to blue where, like the rest of the labels are black.

Has anyone come across this type of problem please advice me what can I do

AFAIK the Qosmio Player is installed on a partition of hiding.
Maybe that's why some GB are missed.

In the user manual, you will find lots of info on the RAID and installation.
Check it out.
I also find something that when you use RAID-1 (mirrored), the operating system recognizes the reduced ability to 2 hard drives.

  • Features red and green Qosmio F30-117 - display problems-

    Hello

    I have a qosmio F30-117, and until recently, I was thrilled with everything about it.

    Then, mid session, graphics started to deteriorate, which fixed a reboot.

    Then a few days later, he did it again and this time when I rebooted it came with a display corrupted, a lot of aa in all directions then red and green lines everywhere.

    Managed to get by selecting safe mode with network and got a desktop computer but still with red and green lines everywhere.

    Now its got worse again, when I start the screen of the laptop itself is empty, becomes something because it is not completely black as if it was when its engine turned off, but his Blanck.

    To check I have connected to an external monitor and managed to get again in safe mode with network, but still very bad and always red and green lines everywhere.

    I started to take a ride on the old good www and there are many posters and articles with problems and many mentioning the lines red and green etc...
    so I'm not alone, but no one seems to know exactly what it is.

    Some have mentioned the grateful Toshiba this as a problem and make even if out of warranty repairs.
    Thus, ideas, advice and does anyone know if Tosh have agreed the problem and offer any help?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    In my opinion, this looks like a problem of graphics card GPU eventually started to malfunction, and in this case to replace the motherboard.

    > Some mentioned Toshiba grateful that as a problem and make even if out of warranty repairs.

    It doesn't have to be dull I ve also found this update from Toshiba product support page, but there is nothing listed on the problems of F30
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/generic/PRODUCT_UPDATE_SUPPORT

    What to say. Seems only a technician ASP might solve your problem, but replacing motherboard is a costly affair so it s your own decision to want to do

    In any case... good luck...

  • Qosmio F30-117: Impossible to establish FTP connections

    I have a Qosmio F30-117, windows XP, Norton Internet security.
    When I try to FTP to my site I get FTP connection failed.

    I tried it on a friends computer and the connection has been established the first time.
    When I joined my laptop to its broadband - no FTp connection. This eliminates at least my router.

    I tried to disbale parts of Norton Internet Security, without success.

    Help?

    Hello

    so if I were you I would completely disable the Norton software and make sure that the Windows Firewall is to leave you hollow. If not, you should check if your friend has put in place properly. If you want to test that your machine is able to connect via FTP, then go to www.kernel.org and enter an ftp address.

    Open your favorite FTP client, and then try to connect. If the connection fails really then double check all the settings and try again. I think that the problem is so low that everybody he oversees everything. ;)

  • Qosmio F30-117: A single HARD drive is recognized after upgrade to 120 GB

    I have a Qosmio F30-117 with 2 x 60 GB Toshiba hard drives installed. I want to switch to 2 x 120 GB HARD drive, but my Slot 1 does not recognize the HARD drive as being present. Slot 2 recognizes that a 120 GB HARD drive is present.

    This happens with two 120 GB hard drives installed in the two slots and when inverted as well. I don't use RAID so no mirroring happens.

    Any clues out there?

    Hello
    I think that it is will not be problem.
    Try putting 2 HARD drive and then install a sistem.
    Otherwise, you can not lose a sistem on old first HDD, if you have a problem.

  • Qosmio F30-117 freezes

    Hello! I bought a Qosmio F30-117 earlier and it started to freeze. I get to the computer desk-very good, then it completely freezes and I have to remove the power cord and the battery to restart, then it usually loads fine.

    Anyone else had this problem or has an opinion on what do I do?

    Thank you
    Nina

    Hello

    I noticed that system blocks always when some external device was plugged or if the CPU activity is higher than the limit. I put t know exactly what to do with your unit, but observe the activity of the laptop. You may be able to find out in what cell phone of the moment freezes or after the operation.

    I'm sure this has nothing to do with the hardware but just with an operation.

  • Qosmio F30-117: after upgarde to Vista - no sound

    I have improved my Qosmio F30-117 to Windows Vista with a clean install.

    I downloaded all the drivers from Toshiba for Vista website, including audio drivers.

    But I have no sound, everything else works fine. I verify that it is not cut.

    Sound driver details are: Sigma Tel High Definition Audio CODEC - version date 040407: 6.10.5462.0

    Its worked before upgrade.

    What did I miss?

    This is very interesting case?  :|

    I have read about similar issues and I have read about possible solutions.

    I could be possible that this may happen because the sound has cut out Windows XP before Windows Vista was installed.

    I studied a bit and found this useful and interesting paper Toshiba which describes the problem and provides and solution:

    [Audio cut off (no sound) after the installation of Windows Vista: http://209.167.114.38/support/techsupport/tsbs/all/-TSB001438.htm]

    Maybe you should check this!

    I would be grateful feedback from your part

    Hello

    The functionality of Windows Vista experience Index that is designed to help better understand
    How Windows Vista and other software will perform on your computer.
    As I know the Windows experience index scale varies from 1.0 to 5.9.
    A higher base score means that your computer run better as a computer with a lower score.

    I don t want to explain the characteristics of everything because there are a lot of pages useful Microsoft that already provides this information:

  • Qosmio F30-117 - green and blue lines on screen

    Then my F30-117 worked well recently until I turned on and had green and blue lines (kind of like scan lines) straddling the fence.
    I tried to install the new drivers from nvidia, but that has not worked, as Vista comes to pick up their as unknown.

    Anyone who has a solution? Don't you think that the graphics card needs to be replaced?

    Thanks in advance!

    -Eric Zehetbauer.

    You can easily determine what's the reason for this.
    Do you know how?

    Simply connect an external monitor to the laptop and check the top image.
    If you have the same problem on the external monitor, the reason is the graphics card or motherboard, otherwise it s a display problem internal.
    Check it!

    In addition, you should only use the drivers from Toshiba. The Nvidia drivers don't have a for the graphics chip overheating protection could be damaged. It s on your own risk.
    So, try to install the drivers of Toshiba.

  • Questions about the Qosmio F30-141 and OS

    Hello!
    I intend to get laptop Qosmio F30-141, but after purchase I want to replace an operational system on Linux Fedora Core, and with she would like to know, if properly supported by the given operating system this model (supported wi - fi particularly interested), or recommend another model?

    Thank you

    The problem could be that the Toshiba does not support Linux drivers and you will have to search in internet and 3 third-party Web sites compatible and supported drivers!
    Besides computers laptop Toshiba supports several tools and utilities that enables the features of the laptop.
    I imagine that you will not be able to use these features as FN keys for example
