• Qosmio F20 and Vista Ultimate

  I would like to know if anyone knows when Toshiba will create all the necessary drivers for this model running windows Vista ultimate.
  Can someone give an answer? Thank you.

  Hello

  I can't answer you that, but I'm afraid that it won't happen. As you know Vista is already longer than one year on the market and if Toshiba didn't offer drivers up to now I n t believe this will happen in the future.

  In any case, I'm sure you can find the drivers somewhere on the net. I mean the graphics or sound driver. You can also try to use the value added packages or other tools of some other models Qosmio Toshiba.

  I don't have a Qosmio F20 and cannot test it but if you have a game for a little time with her.
  I'm sure you can make it work well.

• Qosmio F20 - display driver

  Hi friends...
  I use Qosmio f20 notebook in which I am not able to install the driver of VGA card.
  When I try to install NVIDIA 6600 say no compatible driver is for the hardware.
  could someone help me with a remedy.

  Hello Raja

  Drivers for graphics on laptops are suitable for mobile use. With other words, is a sort of version lite. A common on laptops problem is overheating. Because of this the laptop manufacturers offer such version to protect the graphics card and avoid unexpected interruptions.

  Please use version provided by Toshiba only and you will be on the right side. A lot of people are trying to manipulate the drivers and install them. It can work well but with the risk.

  To activate the Bluetooth key combination FN + F8. Of course, don't forget the switch WLAN is also turned on and the orange WLAN light is on.

• Qosmio F20 and WinXP Pro

  Using a Qosmio F20-110 but hated XP MCE that accompanies it. Reinstalled XP Pro SP2 and drivers according to the instructions of installation in section help. Runs great.

  Can the brightness of buttons and the display of the special player buttons serve in XP Pro? I installed the driver controls but only the Internet button watch.

  Is it possible to use the TV tuner (although the agreement was never large in MCE). Necessary third-party TV software? Not so important.

  see you soon

  Hello Paul

  Have you installed Qosmioplayer yet?

  I'm not 100% sure but I think WXP MCE is actually the Pro version. It is highly recommended to install all the stuff to Toshiba because of the feature, but if you have installed all the tools of Toshiba, it should work. As much as I know all Toshiba tools and utilities are not created only for WMCE but also for the home and professional version. But I found for WMCE you use TOSHIBA controls V3.19.2201 for MCE and home TOSHIBA controls V3.19.2401. Please check installed version on your device.

  Good luck!

• Little help for a Qosmio F50 and win 8 is required

  Hello

  I have an old Qosmio F50 and since he still has enough power to manage Windows 8 I decided to give it a try. What I did is a clean install of WIN 8 x 64 pro and I used a mixture of various models of Toshiba drivers and third parties. The results were not bad, since everything works except for a weird thing.

  Specifically, I used:
  -Drivers of the Chipset V, 9.4.0.1022 directly from Intel.
  -V with Toshiba HD processor driver, 1.0.2.71
  -Enecir v. 2.7.4.1 drivers
  -Realtek High definition audio drivers R271
  V battery Bluetooth 8.00.12 (T)
  -VGA Nvidia 320.49 drivers
  -ALPS V8.x0.303.206 drivers for the touchpad
  -Camera assistant software v 1.7.260.0526L (a bit unstable and settings reset every now and then, but always functional.) The most recent camera app couldn't handle the old Chicony)
  -Everything was provided by Windows Update.

  And finally, I used:
  Toshiba 1.00.6626.06 function key, cards Flash 1.51.8.2C (version b) .and v.1.3.3.64 SpecApp.exe (aka the button support)

  The only problem I have is with the touch media buttons. While working as it should and I can remap them with the SpecApp.exe very well, they do a crazy thing:
  Sometimes, as well as the proper functioning of the button will open also calculator of windows which is quite annoying. I tried many things including the search in the registry, but I couldn't find a way to solve it, so if someone could help that would be great.

  Other than this problem, everything works just perfect, including all FN keys.

  Thank you for reading and if you have an idea I'm all ears.

  It is always a challenge to such experiences as new installation OS on an old machine and unsupported. Let's see if someone else with the same machine had success with Win8.

  Anyway, there is always something that will not work correctly. The key is that most of the stuff works well, so if you will not be able to find the solution for touch buttons, in my view, that it's not so bad.

• What is a plastic tip (for? unscrewing lock optical drive lock.)

  Hello - Thank you very much for any help.  I saw instructions for how to change the DVD drive in my Dell Latitude D630.  He said, under Tools: small screw drive Phillips Head, plastic to mark the guy in the video only used a PH.  I tried a low PH, but it did not work, if I turned to the L or R.  When I look into the hole on the computer for the screwdriver or a plastic tip, I just see a circular recess, no place I can say for a PH hang.  So I thought I would try the tip plastic, whatever it may be...  But when I looked on Amazon, I didn't see no scribes plastic.

  They are all the same size?  Don't you think that's what I need?

  You are kind enough to respond to my request.  Thank you very much.

  These warnings are not a problem for the export settings you use, not for CreateSpace so they can take the dynamic transparency.

• Qosmio F20-136: how to install the software update for DVB TV device?

  Hi, I used the update all the drivers for my qosmio f20 136 11/07/06 and received various pilot updated on the list.
  The file called TV-TUNER-QF20-XPMCE-103250526 at startup allows the pilot to TV TUNER directory listing and seems to be once I was the driver under System section and selected update driver and select this directory.

  My question is the another file called DVBTAHYB-QF20-XPMCE-1051340 when I click on the file that I just get a list of files, when I try the My TV driver update and choose this directory it won't find anything, does anyone know how to install that to update the file. The download list says they are two updates of tv pilot.

  Maybe Toshiba could include a text file explaining in detail how to install these files? Can anyone help please. And nobody knows which file to copy to save a permanent channel registration, so I could re install the file in the directory so lost the complete channel list?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Maybe I understood something wrong, but according to the prudence shown on the Toshiba download page, the TV-TUNER-QF20-XPMCE-103250526 driver is designed for the range of models between F20-101 and F20 - 135.
  Are you sure that this disc is designed for your computer model laptop too?

  Have you tried to install the update of dvbtahyb-qf20-xpmce-1051340 when the original pilot of the TV (factory settings) is preinstalled?

• Access QosmioPlayer and HDD on Qosmio F20

  Hello!

  I just bought a laptop Toshiba Qosmio F20 and I'm very satisfied with it, except that I can't browse and play the media files on my hard drive.

  There are versions of Qosmio Player - original or modified - that come with this feature, which allowed me to play backups of my music CDs and DVD movies stored on my hard drive (mp3, divx formats, etc.), without having to start the computer in XP?

  I hope a quick and honest response.

  Kind regards

  Vegard

  Unfortunately, I think you're out of luck - the Qosmio player doesn't have any codecs for MP3, MPEG4, DivX, etc., and to access NTFS volumes from outside of Windows is generally frowned upon in any case...

• Qosmio F20: Question on fire using the CD drive labels

  I have a Qosmio F20 and wonder if there are drivers available for download for lightscribe so that I can burn labels by using the cd rom drive installed in the laptop.

  I don't really want to buy a separate drive. Any info will be appreciated.

  Kind regards. Phil

  Hello

  Unfortunately, this is not possible on the Qosmio.
  You need to this marking special s of CD or DVD s and especial designed disc burning.

  Books use readers slim one commune and if you want to use this technology, I assume that you will need to buy an external device that has been designed for the use of Lightscribe.

  It of a simply case material and or an updated driver to day or installation of software will help you to use this technology on laptops.

• Need drivers for the wireless on Qosmio F20

  Hi how are you?
  I have a Qosmio F20 and I need to go wireless, but I am not able.
  I checked the device manager and I only find 1394 Net adapt.
  Download any driver from site Qosmio F20?

  Thank you very much

  At the bottom of the unit, you should find a label of the WLan card.
  If the WLan card rating fails, I guess that your phone does not support a minPCI wireless network card.

  As macdreamy1984 has also suggested the card WLan must be listed in the device under network adapters Manager if it has been installed on the laptop

• TV in black and white - Qosmio F20

  Hello

  I just purchased a Qosmio F20 and yesterday I bought a S-video/SCART cable to connect the computer to my TV. To my surprise, the TV image is displayed in black and white. Could it be the cable? I'm doing something wrong?

  Thanks for your help!

  J

  Hello

  If you use S-video connection, in this case you must activate S-video port on your TV.
  Try also using delivered cable SCART to connect.
