Vertical pink line on Qosmio G20 LCD

• Vertical blue lines on Qosmio G10

  My G10 never left the House he's even sitting on a desk to purchase since last Christmas. I had finished work one night and come home. The laptop turned on and I tried a game for the first time that I used it to send invoices and word primarily. My brother gave me (Doom) and have installed the game I played it because I guess an hour, before leaving the game. I put music on it while eating the usual thing of tea. I noticed that the music had stopped and inspecting why? the screen was black with the fans on and the blue light? What had happened that I didn't have to suspend modes to operate?

  I couldn't do anything using CTRL ALT DELETE. I had to turn it off. I managed to do start up to the Qosmio logo but there was blue vertical double lines from left to right through the logo then the screen went black. I knew that this was no viruses because we have two PC an older one that is used with the e-mail, etc.. I was able to reinstall the CD drive / Qosmio recovery as advised, but the problem was the same. But most of the time, it just lights up and remains black screen, not even a beep? After a while, it shuts it

  When I turn on the unit it has black screen and logo will come with these lines. The unit can not even start in safe mode. Why after all just a year to happen something like this?

  I noticed that some users have similar problems. I also noticed that this model has been interrupted in many places. Why? Is there a known hardware problem?

  Tomorrow I will call Toshiba, or perhaps to write e-mail and ask if there are known hardware malfunction.

  Hello Christian

  I found a few topics on this forum with a similar content. I assume that there are some known problems with the graphics card. Please contact your dealer or service partner Toshiba and they will give you more information about it.

  I have also read that some models Qosmio will become most recent and the best map graphic when it should be replaced. I put t know if it will happen with your unit too but you can read under http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=10944&messageID=42211

  Like I said before contact please Toshiba authorized partner in your country.

• Qosmio g20 - best replacement screen?

  Hello

  My lcd screen has lines running down it (different colors) and is wide right vertically blurred 2inches in the middle.

  Now I'd like replace the LCD 17 inches but theres more than 1 part number to pass.
  I have reference numbers

  LG Philips LP171WP3
  N170C1-L02

  both are WXGA + 1440 X 900 display, SUPER HIGHBRIGHT (BRILLIANT) XBRIGHT.

  So which one to buy?

  Thank you

  Well, the replacement of the screen is a costly affair!
  The LCD is one of the more expensive parts of portable (apart from the motherboard) then maybe you should make a choice between a party of second hand and the new screen. If you wanted to buy a new screen and then you would have a new warranty but it s more expensive. On the other hand; no little cheaper warranty

  A new LCD can be ordered from the ASP in your country. I also found this site useful:

  [Toshiba Qosmio G20 LCD screens | http://www.screentekinc.com/Toshiba_Qosmio_G20--17-inch--1440x900-wxgaplus-laptop-lcd-screen.shtml]

  The right LCD part number are; * P000429540 * and * G33C0002K110 *.

• Double vertical lines on the Qosmio G20

  I bought a 16mois g20 there and one day I tried to turn it on and gave me a few double vertical lines...
  I took it to the repair shop, they told me that I have to change the motherboard which is quite expensive and more installation wills cost much. So I think that... Why spend a lot of money for this laptop... .and know this thing came

  To be honest I wasn't disappointed with the machine worked very well... but reliability... .and its not so old to say...

  I was doing some research and very few have the same problem please... Toshiba should do something to make us upgrade the machine or get at least something cheaper to fix...
  Regarding.

  Hello, Fabian

  I'm very sorry to hear that you have a problem with your Qosmio. I have too many Qosmio G20 and I really like this camera. I know it is expensive (I bought an opportunity), but it's really a very powerful and noble device.

  Right now my works well but when I read something like your ad that I'm a little worried mine too. I have gift? t know how long warranty period is in your country, but especially about 2 years ago. Try to contact the Service partner in your country and speak with them. Maybe is it possible to fix it.

  Good luck!

• Line green upright on the LCD of the Qosmio G20

  (Sorry for my bad English)

  Hi all

  my laptop has a vertical green line on the right side of the line of screen.this is also visible in the BIOS screen. so I think it is a linked material issue.but a good thing is that it is not visible in white background.i don't know why;

  Y at - it something I can do other than replacing the screen (I have no warranty on the LAPTOP :()

  The problem occurred after installing windows 7 beta edition, it changed my resolution to 1400 * 900 and I think which can cause overheating graphics card, which can lead to my problem.

  Please help me.

  > Is there something I can do other than replacing the screen (I have no warranty on the LAPTOP)

  I would not replace the front screen that you don't know what's exactly wrong.
  I mean there might be also a problem of graphics card and no screen problem.
  In your case, I would recommend connection of the unit to the external monitor to check if the same vertical line would appear on a second monitor.

  If the same lines are visible on the two screens then it s certainly not a problem of display but GPU and in this case that the motherboard must be replaced :(

• Blue vertical line on the screen of the Qosmio G20

  A few minutes ago, I was surfing the web and from nowhere share an apperead to the blue vertical line on the screen.
  A blue vertical line near the middle of the screen and crosses the screen all the up toward the bottom.

  If I'm looking at a white background, the line is undetectable, but if it is colored, it comes right thru.

  Please don't tell me they are dead... hoooo pixels... I am now, life away from any toshiba repair shop and I get a guarantee...
  I think that I bought 3 years ago. Need urgent help

  Hey Susana

  I wouldn't say it s a lack of dead pixel, but to me, it looks like a more serious problem.
  It looks like a malfunction of the graphics card. But to be sure, you should try to connect the external monitor to the computer and check if the same vertical line will appear on the second screen.

  If you're going to see the same line on the external monitor, then I assume that the question of the vertical blue line might be linked to the GPU fault.
  This could be the case value because the chip graphic card cannot be replaced. You need to replace the whole motherboard :(

  So, as you see it s not easy to solve this problem and I really recommend to contact a technician who has more experience with these laptop problems.

  Good luck

• Qosmio G20 - HDMI to LCD TV connection

  Hi all

  I would like to connect my Qosmio G20-139 directly to my LCD TV using the HDMI connection. The G20 has a d-connector on the back that I thought was HDMI, but impossible to find a cable to do it with. Anyone know if this is possible?

  Concerning

  Roland

  Hello Roland

  As much as I know Qosmio G20 certainly has no HDMI port but port component and it looks like the HDMI port. I found the very interesting thread on this forum and you can find a very interesting discussion on the Qosmio G20 and LCD TV connection.

• Qosmio G20 - could not get the video to display on the LCD screen

  I have a laptop Toshiba Qosmio G20, running Windows XP MCE.

  The DVD player on board isn't sounds very well so I thought I would plug an external DVD drive to expand its use. After a lot of internet research, I finally found how to do this. Here's my setup.

  Using the monitor port I used the adapter 3 RCA jacks. (There is no S-video on the DVD drive and an adapter did not work). I finally discovered that in order to get the image on the screen, I have to use Fn + 4. Now, here's where I'm having the problem. I can't get the video to display on my external LCD. FN + 5 didn't do. The monitor is an I - inc AH191D and is connected by VGA cable. There is no driver other than the one for the VISTA operating system... That is why it is not anywhere in the Device Manager.
  Here are the settings I use in order to have all that shows on my desk, shows on the monitor.

  In Control Panel open to the screen. Properties
  Number chosen 1 - multiple monitors GeForce Go6600 video card...
  Advanced under
  the GeForce G06600 tab,
  nViewDisplay Mode: clone 1 a 1 b
  The main screen: digital flat screen
  Secondary display: AH191

  I also tried using the properties of controls on Toshiba. He says under TV output TV output but gives options of the program, but I don't know what I would use. Any ideas out there?

  Wait I'm confused, if you try to send the output of your external DVD drive in the laptop, and then display the image on an external monitor attached to laptop?

  If you use the DVD player on your laptop, it will be good quality S-video as a signal of low resolution.

  Is there something wrong with the DVD player?

  If it's just the DVD software you don't like, you can download other DVD players. PowerDVD is excellent, its better than WinDVD and other players in my opinion.

• Qosmio G20 has white LCD diplsay. OK when it is used with screen external en

  I hope someone can help. Qosmio G20 has full white LCD.
  The backlamps are on and the laptopworks fine when used with screen external fr.
  I guess it's probably the motherboard, any ideas?

  Most people would say that if it worked, say, a couple of days and you can't even start on your LCD screen, then the screen or its cable or mobo circuit feeding the LCD failed.

  I had this on another laptop too, and Toshiba are not something so special that this kind of thing is not generally a valid diagnosis.

• Re: Satellite A500 - 15 M - blue vertical line appears on the LCD screen

  Hi - I turned on my laptop the other day (I have an A 500 - 15M) and I noticed a very thin dotted vertical blue line running through the centre-right of the screen of my computer, all the way up and down.

  I tried things like change the desktop theme, screen settings, updated to the intel drivers but nothing is done, it won't go away. Does anyone have a solution or a similar problem? I bought an extended warranty of 3 years so could still call Toshiba and ask them about it, but wanted to see if there was a quick fix here of someone.

  I tried to restore to a previous restore point, but nothing helped.

  Help please, because it is very annoying!

  Thank you very much!

  Hi bilal1982,

  Hmm, it seems to be a hardware malfunction with your laptop

  I mean that if you tried to update the driver display and restored Windows to an earlier point, but without success, it seems that the graphics card or LCD screen is defective.
  You can connect an external monitor to check if it of the graphics card or internal LCD screen.

  But in both cases you should contact a provider authorized in your country. Guys can fix your laptop under warranty, so it of free for you.

  Here is a list of aspic, where you can search:

• Qosmio G20 screen of text or symbols on startup

  Qosmio G20 139, at the start of the Qosmio laptop appears and then it immediately goes into a screen of text or symbols. Is continuous to load see the Windows XP screen then displays vertical blue dotted, then goes to an error page showing the nonpaged page error error 0 x 00000050. Then restarts and goes around and does the same thing.

  I used the recovery disk and it worked fine for a few days the have reappeared.
  I checked the ram and hard drive and there seems to be some errors.

  Now reinstall drive does not load correctly.
  If a page comes up saying installation is not complete.

  > I checked the ram and hard drive and there seems to be some errors.

  How did you check that?
  Have you used a new test strips of memory and the new HARD drive?

  To be honest, I don t think that your HARD drive is affected. The vertical dotted lines, could be more related question of graphics card in terms of the HARD drive.
  RAM question could also be possible, but I think that its GPU.

  By the way: you are able to access the BIOS?
  Turn on the computer and press F2. Then leave the laptop in BIOS for a few hours to check if some problems arise.
  Would be interesting to know how the unit would be

• Qosmio G20: Possible boot from a USB device?

  Dear all,

  I am writing for you good people was whether it is possible to start a Qosmio G20 via a connected USB device, an external hard drive.

  I wonder if it is taken in charge (or tolerable) within the limits of the current Qosmio G20 BIOS and/or if any could attempt on my part to make taken in charge (i.e. are there buttons I can push levers, I can pull or numbers I can play to get there).

  The reason why I have is that my laptop has a multitude of technical difficulties that point to the hardware failure, among them a vertical line on my screen and a problem with my optical drive, making it impossible for me to write a CD or DVD.

  In the unlikely event that the good folks at Toshiba support are forced to replace the hard drive (or the system) it would be nice to have a way to restore the system to its current configuration (in this sense, I'm looking for a way to create my own bootable recovery disc produced) however the lack of functionality in the Department of optical drive ties my hands a little (I can't create a recovery of) product custom CD/DVD but I might create a product on my external HARD drive recovery partition).

  Thus, it would be useful to be able to boot from a USB, not essential of course as any disk image could be comfortably written to disk through my soon-to-be renovated system (of course it would be quicker to start just by the USB bus and avoid all this nonsense).

  Sincere greetings,
  Lee Hyde.

  Hello

  I am sorry to say that you will not be able to boot from the external USB HDD. The BIOS does not support this feature.
  According to different threads here in the support of forum Toshiba Qosmio G20 BIOS supports these devices to start:
  Floppy USB drive, 1st/2nd HDD, ODD, network (LAN)

  As you can see it s possible to floppy USB FDD but not the USB external HDD

• Qosmio G20 screen is comatible with display Qosmio G10?

  Hello

  Dose anyone know if the screen Toshiba Qosmio G10 is compatible with the Toshiba Qosmio G20?

  Thank you guys

  Of
  Sweet

  Hello

  I think display of the G20 should be compatible with the Qosmio G10 display.
  I searched a bit and found that the Qosmio G10-100 PQG10E was fitted with the 17 "WIDE XGA LCD.
  The Qosmio G20-101 PQG20E supports the same 17 "WIDE XGA display.

  Therefore, it seems that both units use the same screen.

• Need advice on creating DVDs - Qosmio G20

  Hi all forum members

  In recent weeks, I am a happy owner of Qosmio G20. The camera is awesome and I have a lot of fun with it. Now I have the ability to create DVD movies because I Dona ¢ A? Â? t want to plug my cam on television every time if I want to watch the material recorded from my last vacation.

  I can connect my cam on the case without problems and can be recognized correctly. The video material is copied on the HARD drive, but when the DVD is created the image quality is very bad (LCD TV). I tried with a few different applications (WinDVD creator, Adobe premiere and Nero Vision Express), but always with the same result.

  I'll be very grateful if any of you have experience with the creations of DVD and try to explain to me what can do to make it better.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Could have different reasons:

  -Kompression
  try to set the MPEG compression at a higher quality (means: larger file size-> better.)

  -Cables used:

  Try to use RGB (SCART, YUV) or cable (aka Hosiden) SVHS instead of Chinch-video (aka FBAS).
  Also try to use good quality cables (not only those in the category - 5) here.

  -Monitor the device (used TV)
  Try to see the videos on a common TUBE TV (CRT) (not LCD or Plasma, not even on the tube cathode-pc screens)
  On the LCD or PLASMA TV screen you will be self a greater amount of compression artifacts.

  Please tell me if this solves the problem.

• Qosmio G20: cursor jumps typing the letter

  Hi everyone, my Qosmio G20 gives me headaches! When I try to type a letter or article suddenly the cursor jumps back lines and I find myself typing in the middle of a previous sentence. Then sometimes it just deletes a paragraph I just typed.
  Any suggestions as to why? And more importantly on how to behave?
  I would be happy to advice.

  Thank you.
  Ronnie

  Yes, it's because of the touchpad. To disable and enter in peace, just press Fn + F9. This will temporarily disable the touchpad. When you are finished typing, press Fn + F9 again, it will re-enable the touchpad.
  Later,.
