Should Qosmio G30-204 - I install Windows 7 32-bit or 64-bit?

Hi people,

I have a Qosmio G30-204. I've updated the RAM to 4 GB. She has Windows Vista 32 bit installed currently.

I plan on installing windows 7.
If I install Windows 7 64 bit, or it must be 32 bits?

What is the difference between 32 bit and 64 bit anyway?

Hello

If you have upgraded laptop with 4 GB of RAM, you must install Windows 7 64 bit. On all the 32 bit OS, you can only use ~3.2GB reason for the limitation of the 32 bits.

That's also the difference between 32 and 64 bits, the size of RAM supported. ;)

    Hello

    You can try utilities for Windows 7 64 bit, but I doubt that they will work. Utilities are designed for OS 32 bit and no 64 bit OS.

    In your case, I would check the Web from Toshiba site for 64-bit tools. For example, if you are looking for the Qosmio G50 and Windows 7 64-bit, you get the utilities they should work on your Qosmio also.

    Hello
    I have a Qosmio G30 204, I installed Windows 7 Ultimate edition but I have no sound. I feel that she has a Sigmatel chipset onboard as a Codec has been installed.

  • Qosmio G30-204 - design of brick at startup

    Hi people I have a Qosmio G30-204.

    On start its got this design a little brick behind the logo and then Qosmio where writing starts to come, outgoing agent priming, etc., instead of the black screen, its black and yellow lines most of them 4 yellow straight lines.
    After that windows Vista won't sign and it will remain as a black screen.

    It works in safe mode and the design that comes at the beginning, there will be a design similar to the desktop, any window, I opened.

    Could be my graphics card?

    Hello!

    It is difficult to understand, but have you tried an external monitor on the laptop?
    So you can make sure if it s a problem with the internal display or mother/graphics chip.

    Maybe it s only a driver or software issue because you said it works in safe mode. Maybe you should try to update the display driver that you can find on the Toshiba site.

    Good bye

  • Qosmio G30-204 starts with BSOD

    Hello

    I have a toshiba Qosmio G30-204. It crashed last Friday night, I tried everything since then, including the system recovery disk, nothing seems too much work between the blue screen and a matrix effect in the back round (broken lines going down the screen) so that I erased two hard drives. Nothing seems to work, also tried safe mode and boot into normal windows.

    In the course of the process, I came across a message, if an additional disk came with it! to put it in now. A single disc that I can remember. Any help would be much appreciated, because I now get only a blue screen with the stop 0xoooooo7E (followed by other numbers)

    Thank you once again, Marty

    I got the message?
    You aren't able to recovery of the laptop using the recovery disk?

    Hmm looks like hardware problem
    The described broken lines going down the screen resembles a graphics card problem
    What happens if you turn on the device and go to the BIOS?
    The BSOD is always appear?

  • Qosmio G30-204 - the CPU temperature is high

    OK, so I have a problem of overheating with Qosmio G30-204. It seems that in the course of suspend the CPU temperature is high, I used SpeedFan to confirm this. EG + 70 degrees C after 5 minutes. 90 + degrees if left any longer!

    I find it very frustrating to say the least. This unit has served sentence. I had not yet touched in nearly two years the initial feeding has stopped working. The original power box split as it was a serious risk to my health and still less damage would could have been done to the machine! How to create a product that at least that I've updated the BIOS Toshiba fry the GPU!

    Needless to say that I did pretty well as soon as I got the camera. What can be done to fix this problem? If anything like that? It makes me not want / trust buy another Toshiba product.

    I can't wait to hear support ;)

    Hey,.

    In your case I don't he say s a nuisance Toshiba. It can be another problem as Akuma written and this means that it has nothing to do with Toshiba.

    For me it s definitely dust in the heat sink, especially if you do not clean your laptop before. You must use the jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans. It only takes 5 minutes and should be made from time to time because it s normal behavior which, after a certain time dust, blocking the cooling fan.

  • Qosmio G30-204 - how to replace the screen?

    Hi people. I have a Qosmio G30-204.

    The screen to the right corner is not sure as the rest of the 3 corners of the screen.
    How can I tighten again?

    Where are the screws on the screen?

    Hello

    Have you tested the laptop to an external monitor? Perhaps it is not a problem with the monitor and your graphics card or card mother is causing this issue.
    Check it!

    Moreover I replaced didn't a computer laptop screen myself again because it s too difficult and delicate in my opinion. You need to remove a large number of screws and you should be very careful that you n t destroy a part or material of the laptop.

    I think the best way is to contact a local laptop technician you. They can try to help you and they have enough experience for the exchange of material on a laptop computer.

    Hi people.

    I currently have an Intel pro/Wireless 3945ABG Network card in my laptop. If I had to upgrade to a newer version, which we'd be one of the newest and best for my laptop?

    And the new WiMax from Intel would work in the Qosmio G30 - 204?

    Hey Buddy,

    The antenna is placed under the cover of the display and cables are placed under the keyboard or with other words, they are connected to the wireless network card.

    By the way: an upgrade to the draft N standard is not possible. In my view an update of the WLAN card is not logical.

    Hello

    It is not necessary to install Windows 7 64 bit instead of 32-bit.

    Your RAM is only 2GBs.

    benefits of 64-bit is designed for and tested with the system of at least 4GBs RAM hardware and more.

    "32-bit and 64-bit Windows: frequently asked questions.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/32-bit-and-64-bit-Windows-frequently-asked-questions

    This applies to you:

    What version of Windows 7 should I install: the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version?

    To install a 64 bit version of Windows 7, you need a processor that is capable of running a 64-bit version of Windows. The benefits of using a 64-bit operating system are especially visible when you have a large amount of RAM (RAM) installed on your computer, typically 4 GB RAM or more. In this case, because a 64-bit operating system can handle large amounts of memory more effective than a 32-bit operating system, a 64-bit system can be more responsive when you run several programs at once and switching between them frequently.

  • Can satellite A100-011 - I install Windows 7 64 bit?

    Can you please tell me if I install Windows 7 64 bit where can I find the drivers, because they are not listed on the Toshiba site.

    Thanx.

    Akis

    Hi Akis,

    > where I can find the drivers, because they are not listed on the Toshiba site.
    That of the point because the drivers provided for this model, you can find on the official website of Toshiba. There's no other place where you can download the pre-tested and official drivers for Toshiba laptops.

    Theoretically, there s no problem to install Windows 7, but you don't have to search the drivers yourself on other sites like:
    [www.intel.com]
    [www.realtek.com]
    [www.atheros.com]
    Etc.

    An alternative you can try 64 bit Vista drivers. Usually they should work on Windows 7 too.

    I have a drive to upgrade Windows 7 from my laptop manufacturer that allows me to each upgrade or to start from scratch.

    I want to install Windows 7 64 bit on a separate partition for the installation of my 32-bit Vista, but when I boot on the DVD there is no option to select the 32 or 64 bit, it only allows me to install the 32-bit version. I have partitions installed correctly then they arnt the problem. If I try to boot from the recovery partition to install Vista 64 bit on a separate partition, to upgreade can leave, he simply don't say so, it doesn't allow the recovery or replacement of my existing Vista installation. Also, often when I boot to recovery mode, by organizing 0 start up, he simply waits some time and the Vista of boots in any case.

    Actually, this isn't just a "upgrade drive" it's a full disc of Windows 7, I know that I can install full Windows 7 32 bit in a separate partition for Vista.

    The problem is solved in any case, I managed to hide my Vista (C) install with Acronis and boot to the WIndows 7 DVD. It then allowed me to install Windows 7 64 bit on the other Partition, because he did not think that 32-bit Windows Vista has been installed on the HARD drive. I managed to deceive it by showing the menu options of 32 bits or 64 bits in this way... I assumed it was a protection system put in place by Microsoft to stop upgrade problems if soemone tried upgrade Vista 32, Windows 7 64

    If your computer is pre-installed with Windows 7 Home Premium, you should have a recovery if partition:

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...

    For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

    Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

    Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

    ------------------------

    If the recovery partition is damaged or does not, you can then use the downloaded Home Premium as an alternative.
