Upgrade CPU on Qosmio F10-101

Hello people,
I tried to upgrade my Qosmio F10-101 1.7 to 1.8 GHz CPU, but the whole system runs very slowly.
In fact, it runs up to 500 MHz and it is not possible to operate at full capacity.
Finally, I went back to my original CPU, 1.7 Pentium chip.
I think Toshiba is using a method to control the CPU serial number and reject any new CPU unless it is replaced by them.
Does anyone have an idea how to make my notebook to accept the 1.8 GHz Centrino?

Concerning
Kypros

Hello

The fact is that after changing the motherboard or a unit firmware must be updated.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to update the firmware for a common user.
This can be done only by the Toshiba service partner.
After this update the CPU has to work with maximum efficiency.

I guess it's a question why the CPU works only with 500 MhZ

  • New Qosmio F10-101. Where is OneNote?

    Just bought a new Qosmio F10-101 in Greece with Greek Windows XP, but I can't find Microsoft OneNote installed on my machine. On the European model site 'abandoned' the specs say clearly that OneNote is provided with this model.
    So why this software is missing?

    Hi Eric,.

    My copy of OneNote has come on a CD and I had to install it myself. He was not on the OEM Windows XP installation, and it is not included on the recovery CD.

    I recommend that you check the packaging for your Qosmio original see if there is a CD somewhere.

  • Required parameters for Qosmio F10-101

    Hi, I just bought my Qosmio F10-101 & I have two questions:

    1 - hard drive (60 GB) is a player, I need to divide it into 2 or more drives & keep back the preinstalled software (what are the exact steps?, I keep all the factory settings?).

    2. the models that include a television tuner weren't available when I bought my laptop, if I get the F10-101, is it possible to add a TV tuner? the performance will be ok or it will be affected because it is not built in from the beginning?
    Appreciate to advise me soon (especially to question 1) to activate the startup using my laptop.

    Thank you
    Amal

    You can use a program like partition magic that can partition the drive into multiple separate disks (for example C: D: etc..) It is installed in the windows operating system and he can do the job without losing existing data on your disk.

  • No tuner = no S-Video capture! (Qosmio F10-101)

    I just bought Qosmio F10-101, which comes without a TV tuner. I tried everything to save my VCR to the computer's S-video input, but this is not possible. I have already installed the registry patch and I tested several applications like WinDVD Creator video recording supplied with the machine, they do not all video input ports.

    The main reason why I bought this machine, it's that I thought that the S-video input could be used for recording the video on the hard drive. But it seems that this is not the case.

    So, I'm supposed to return the unit for another model? Or is there a workaround to record a S-video input to the hard drive? Please, remember that this isn't a TV tuner.

    TIA

    Hello Tia

    Since last week, I got a new Qosmio F20. I want to do the same thing as you. At the moment I am not familiar with this, but the Qosmio forum, you can find many discussions on this topic.

    Try to pick up some information.

  • Qosmio F10-101: question on a keyboard

    On my f10 cosmio 101 caps lock green won't turn on all the time, whether it is on or off, so I never know is it turned on. Also when I press right shift windows media player turns, and when the left press the letters on my screen became smaller.

    Hello m24

    AFAIK all keyboards works on the same principle. Lock shift turned permanently you can turn it off by using the SHIFT key. Press the SHIFT key and hold down the key. After that press Caps lock once, and it should be disabled. If there is a green light it shows whether or not shift caps lock is enabled.

    Please also check out Chapter 5 in operating manuals s. here, you will find a brief but very useful explanation on keyboard on Qosmio F10.

  • Qosmio F10-101 does not have a TV tuner

    Hello

    I bought my F10 about 2 years ago. It is actually a F10-101. I picked the local official Toshiba site (Turkey). On the web page, he said that F10 comes with a TV Tuner (such as all the Qosmios). Also I checked it on the site of toshiba - Europe.com. The local page was actually just a copy/paste of the toshiba - Europe.com

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?PRODUCT_ID=98310&DISC_M OD = 1 & service = EU

    2-3 days later, I bought the computer. Since I knew that the specifications, I didn't ask questions. When I got home, I realized that there was no TV Tuner on my machine, or remote control. I called the dealer that I bought, they said that none of the F10s have TV Tuners.

    I sent to the local distributor of Toshiba on the problem, why this is so. They do not even condescend to answer. The TV Tuner functionality is also excluded from the site 2-3 days later (I also sent Toshiba International, but I was told to contact your local Distributor).
    I didn't actually buy my Qosmio for its TV Tuner functionality. But this isn't what Qosmio is made for?

    I didn't have to return to the computer dealer, because it is a very good machine in addition to its multimedia capabilities. I say "was" because of some problems of motherboard, I am facing nowadays. I'm a little start to Brown it off.

    What would you do if the same thing has happened to you?

    Hello Cagri

    It is well known that you have time to 14 days for the product if you are not satisfied. I don't know how it works in your country, but here where I live I can bring it if I am not convinced. I will also say that after buying a new product each of us should check the product, and if something is not as described in the product description, we must respond as soon as possible and dealer.

    Qosmio F10 does not work for me because it's one of the first laptops Qosmio but one thing confuses me. According to the specifications of the laptop it comes with WXP Home. Am I wrong? As far as I know to use the TV tuner you need Media Center Edition.

    Sorry, but it's really not easy to be objective enough. After 2 years is now too late for all the complaints. I just hope that you still like your toy and I have a lot of fun with it.

    Good bye

  • How to upgrade the Player Qosmio F10?

    Hello.
    I bought Qosmio F10-100 and had a problem, watching TV in the reader MCE and Qosmio {no sound quality, b & w, poor}. Then I installed the new version of the TV tuner driver and solved the problem of the MCE.
    Now I want to update Qosmio Player {noise}, I downloaded it, but I read in the Readme it must 200MBytes of unpartitioned hard disk space. I can install without repartitioning my hard drive?

  • Qosmio F10-101: after change of graphics output d-video card does not work

    Hello
    I had a problem with my qosmio F10 and after service, changed the graphics card from Nvidia Geforce 5700 6600. But when I tried to switch the LCD for the TV screen, I could not use my d-video out (SCART nb exit). I could not change display properties TV format because these settings the value NTSC and shadow. You have an idea? How can I solve this problem before the service...
    Thank you

    Hello

    The G10 has installed the utility of development of Toshiba and this tool has controlled the TV out put and the PAL, NTSC settings.
    Check if it is available on your Qosmio F10 and change the settings if necessary.

    Furthermore, it would not be a bad idea to access the BIOS and check if there are any options that can move from a PAL, NTSC

  • Upgrade CPU on Satellite L30-101

    Hi, I have a Toshiba Satellite L30-101. I upgraded the RAM to 2 GB (2 x 1 GB) successfully, but I find it incredibly difficult to get information on the replacement of the processor.

    The laptop has the latest version of the BIOS on it (3.10 - WIN - 02/19/08), but trying to find information on whats inside I'm hitting brick walls. First of all the site > http://www.toshiba-tro.de/biosinfo/< doesn't="" have="" my="" laptop="" on="" it,="">
    Product type: notebook
    Family: Satellite
    Product series: Satellite L series
    Model:? unknown
    Short model No.:? unknown

    I hope I could paste in but with the ATI chipset Intel Duo, I'm sure that it won't work but once again without knowing what in the BIOS, compatible... I got lost. Single processor I can find who can work, same package, FSB, socket is an Intel Core Solo T1350 of processor which begins at 1.86 GHz, not a huge difference, and I don't know that it cannot be the only option of replacement.

    Could someone and please help me to get the hands on info from BIOS and compatible processors for my laptop. The current Intel Celeron M Processor 410 deporting the 1.46 GHz is not good enough for Vista (cert on laptop) and basic multi-task. His way of late too even after a good tune up, ram, HD 7200 rpm upgrade. I need an upgrade of the processor, but as mentioned it is incredibly difficult to get the information which would be compatible.

    Sincerely,

    Gourcuff

    Hello

    In my opinion, your attempt to replace the CPU is false. Why? Satellite L30 is not designed to offer performance and it is designed for everyday use. Best evidence was the price. It wasn't so expensive.

    Can you please tell us why do you have new CPU? Do you use special software?

    Return to the replacement of the CPU. As you probably know laptops have limited upgrade options and it is related to the RAM and disk HARD upgrade. It's definitely not for CPU upgrade and it is not supported. Specific design, especially of the cooling system is designed for certain CPU.
    Because of this, you will not be able to find relevant info on replacement of the CPU.

    Check it please this Toshiba document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  • Question about upgrading CPU for Satellite L30-101

    Is it possible to upgrade my processor from a 1.44 to what higher?

    No, there is no way because:

    -It s too expensive
    -It s complicated Exchange when you´re no technician for laptop
    -you won´t win any show (especially when the performance vs price comparison)

    Instead update your RAM and your HARD drive since that these components are comp. evolutionary and better will give you better performance.
