• Qosmio G40 - 10F: cannot use IRDA

  I recently received this Qosmio G40 - 10F and I read on the specifications for its IR. But infrared devices such as the transfer of my phone to the laptop does not work. There is no such IRDA device on Device Manager to activate. So I got the idea that I could check on the bios.
  But I do not have the bios boot.
  It is usually used to be the DELETE key on my computer but when I boot on the laptop, it does not indicate any key to boot to the bios.

  I would appreciate if I could get help at the start of the BIOS or set the IRDA settings on.
  Thanx

  I agree, esc should do the trick. :)

  Stand by. You have a problem with registration only or you aren't able to watch television at all?

  I did some experiments with Qosmio G30 and WMC and I was able to record all programs available. Because of this, I would like to know if you are able to watch the TV or not.

• Should what format I use for my external hard drive?

  I have an external drive that I wish I could use (writing) from my Mac and my PC, but without the limitations of + 4 GB files.

  Is this possible or am I pasted with limiting the size? If so should what format I use on my external hard drive? and it has all the other notes aside I should know?

  Thank you!

  Hi Filabaca:

  If you want to use a hard drive external Mac and PC options are:

  1. format the drive in Mac as exFat

  2. format the drive to NTFS on a Windows PC and use a program like Paragon NTFS for Mac. https://www.Paragon-Software.com/home/NTFS-Mac/

  Paragon NTFS for Mac allows you to use a disc formatted in NTFS by a Windows PC.

  Here is an article showing the difference between FAT32, exFAT and NTFS. http://www.howtogeek.com/235596/whats-the-difference-between-fat32-exfat-and-ntf s /

  Qosmio G40 supports all ports that are important in establishing the sky broadband.
  The RJ45 is the Ethernet port; known as port Lan ;)

  You can connect the modem to broadband from sky to this port using the LAN cable just ;)

• Qosmio G40 - 10F - extra hard drive

  Hello

  I have recently purchase a G40 thinking it was x 2 of physical drives, it appears in this model there is only a single physical HD

  I read in many places, there is room for the G40-10 for a reader to additional disk placed inside the machine but this model seems to have simply a fixed cover but the space for the reader to be mounted

  Nobody knows of the back plate is removed and an additional hard drive caddy to store additional drive - it should be relatively simple with a heat dissipation and other I think all that is needed is the replacement carriage and connector cable SATA - x motherboard 2 recognisies readers

  All I really want to know is

  (1) is it possible
  (2) is - someone doing it
  (3) toshiba reference numbers for the caddy and for a G40 - 10F sata cables

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio G30, but I saw G40 and if I remember, although in the lower corner, that there are two HARD drives covers. Two of them are placed close to the battery, and they have one, how to say, plastic circle. AFAIK the G40 is offered with one or two hard drives. The first HARD disk is placed inside fixed with a screw. One extra is placed under the second HARD drive cover fixed with two screws.

  I don't really know if your G40 is extensible, but you can contact the service provider authorized in your country. They have access to the database of Toshiba and they can check it for you. Part number is usually internal case and it is not easy to find number of exact part for these additional parts like the drive bracket HARD or cables.

  Make a call and pick up information on the possibility of upgrade HARD drive.
  One last thing: try to remove the cover for the second HARD drive and check if the HARD drive connector is there.

  O thank you very much for all the advice

  Hello Phil

  Now, I found this interesting thread on your problem. What is find a solution?
  If nothing helps remove SSDS, set the BIOS settings by default (if you enter it again) and put the old HARD drive.

  General SSDs should be recognized correctly and there is not a big problem with these updates.

• Qosmio G40 - 10F down arrow is triggered by itself

  Qosmio G40 - 10th down arrow seems to trigger by itself while booting and while I view web pages.

  The problem surface when I was accessing the web pages at the start of the screen to scroll down by himself.
  Before, I thought that the button may be pressed hard but when I looked at the issue through a senser key application to test what triggers the down arrow key press on and found that two or three other keys trigger arrow key down automatically.
  namely, in arrow, i key, key k, function keys.

  But when I press ESC or Page up/Page down, scrolling stops for a while but starts to make arrow down by itself again.

  I have re-installed and restored the entire operating system to the date of loading of the factory and the problem solved only for a few minutes and the issue is back.

  I am convinced that this is due to software problem and not a hardware problem, as the key works fine for a while and after a few minutes, begins to trigger arrow down permanently.

  Please advise,
  Thank you.

  Have you tried an external USB keyboard and then you have the same problem?

  I think that it s a hardware problem and the keyboard must be exchanged, but that before test with an external keyboard.

• Qosmio G40 - not more healthy with the last driver audio Realtek

  Hi all!

  Whenever I have install the latest audio driver Realtek 6.1.0.53.97 on my Qosmio G40 (Vista), the sound not work more (not at all) so I don't have to return to the previous version.

  Has anyone noticed this problem or has an explanation?

  Thank you.

  Louglitou.

  Hello

  It's not easy to say why you n t get the noise after the update of the audio driver, but in my view, this problem may appear if a problem occurs during the installation/update procedure.
  But I have two questions;
  Why do you want to update the audio driver? You have sound problems?
  I think that if your sound is ok so an update is not necessary, I noticed that the Realtek audio drivers are updated from time to time. My audio driver is about 3 years old and I didn't update because it works very well.

  Best regards

  Hello

  The HARD drive may begin to malfunction because it s a part not reusable.
  I'm not very well why the HARD drive starts to malfunction in these times early in any case the party m can be replaced very easily and usually you don t we had to send the laptop to the ASP.

  Get in touch with an ASP and ask compatible HARD drive. If it s covered by the warranty, you should get so much for free, otherwise you will need to purchase these parts.

  However, here you can check how to replace the HDD:

• Qosmio G20 - XP doesn't see second HARD drive, but the BIOS is

  Hello

  Mylène for the long post - but think if give good info, I poss of correct answer:

  After the crash of QOSMIO G20... managed to reinstall of XP Recovery DVD-ROM. Immed after, looked at the config with Win Explorer and two hard drives all present and correct. even copied a picture of my images on the D: drive, just to make sure that all aok.

  Then downloaded SP3 and tried to install - it reported failure and then shut down the PC. After attempts to get again - until finally resorted to reuse the Recovery DVD-ROM.
  Come back XP again - but now, while the BIOS sees two hard drives (reports size, Fab details, etc.), as far as Windows is concerned, it does not exist.

  Tried to initialize in disk management - no sign there.
  He was then released, put it in a shopping cart, connected to the office and initialized and formatted - then returned to mobile... zilch!

  Your kind suggestions and recommendations could save just the remaining strands terrified of hair of a violent end...

  A lot of TIA
  Logis

  Hello House,

  Normally, if the BIOS recognizes the HARD drive, but not Windows, this means that the HARD disk is not formatted, but it must be visible under the Windows disk management.
  You see it now?

  If not it is not easy to say what the reason are you should try load default settings in the BIOS and save it. Then start Windows and check if HDD is visible there too.

  In the worst case, it s that a malfunction of the HARD disk controller, but what you can test if swap you the two drives and put them in another location.

• Bought the new computer windows 10, itunes has changed location of support for external hard drive. The music does not appear in itunes.

  BOUGHT NEW COMPUTER WINDOWS 10, CHANGED ITUNES MEDIA LOCATION FOR EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE. THE MUSIC DOES NOT APPEAR ON ITUNES.

  Changing the iTunes media folder location setting affects only where new additions to your library will be stored.  To use a disk external drive to store your library complete (and assuming that you have access to the original data of the library on an old computer) you must copy the iTunes folder, by default in C:\Users\username\Music, on the external drive - structure library and its records should be like this:

• Qosmio X 70A - how to add second HARD drive

  Hello Forum,

  I own a X 70 A 11 Q Qosmio with a 1.5 T HARD drive.
  I want to add a second HARD drive into the empty Bay.

  Can someone me, Toshiba spare part is needed to mount the new HARD drive into the empty Bay?
  Where can I get a spare part in Germany?

  Kind regards

  Hello

  All parts can be ordered from local authorized Toshiba maintainer.
  Here is a page with all FSA available worldwide:
  http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

  But even if there is a 2nd HARD drive Bay, you must check if the Bay contains the HARD drive connector.
  The fact is that not all models are equipped with the same motherboard, but with the same substantive coverage that contain 2nd HARD drive Bay.

  By the way: what you need is a kind of drive bracket HARD 2.5 ". Something like [this | http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/images/TOS-X505%20sm.jpg]
