• Qosmio G30-126 (PQG32E) - very slow performance of HARD drive

  I have improved my Qosmio G30 126 at 4 GB of Ram, SSD 64 HDD as windows7 boot partition and 500 GB 7200 64cache HARD drive as drive HARD secondary but I have a very slow HARD drive performance when working in windows7, but when I work on a virtual machine Windows XP, the disk HARD perforemance is fine.

  I've upgraded all drivers from toshiba.com for windows7 ultimate 32-bit drivers including drivers from the chipset intel but my problem is not solved. I also check all other performance issues and its OK.

  The same problem exsists on my old HARD drive on Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit and Windows 7 ultimate 32 bit.

  I used HD tune software to check my HARD drive it accelerates gives about 100bps in windows 7 for my SSD and it gives 285mbps (this is the actual read speed) in the machine virtual Windows XP and the actual speed is significantly different.

  Please tell me what to do because I suffer from my laptop very slow and spend a lot of mony on it without more.

  Hello

  To be honest it is really hard to tell why you have slow HARD drive performance but especially it s associated with a large number of programs they are running in the background. How many processes are started after Windows starts?

  Also, the antivirus program may affect the performance of the computer. I would recommend using the AntiVir freeware tool and the Windows Firewall. That's enough if keep you Windows up-to-date and use a new Internet browser.

  Also check the other discussions of the forum on the slow performance. You can find a lot of useful tips to improve performance. For example:
  -Defragment HARD drive
  -Disable the startup programs you don't need
  -Uninstall unnecessary programs
  -Run the CCleaner tool to remove old registry keys

• Qosmio G30 - 10F - need mainboard partnumber

  Hello

  I need to reference my motherboard, because it is defective and I want to replace the motherboard.
  and my dealer wants the right partnumber to find the right spare parts.

  But I can't find the reference to the Board of Directors, one and only one i found is:
  + A5A001964 / 030 A0 / C074AGOT +.
  + Model: Qosmio G30-10 +.
  + PQG32E-03903NGR +.
  + S/N: 47816895 +.

  And my dealer said, the partnumber resembles this example: P000462640

  Thank you

  As far as I know Toshiba service partner has this info. They have access to Toshiba of database and that you can check this. As much as I know that Toshiba has offered two platforms for the Qosmio G30, so it is very important for you to get the motherboard for PQG32E.

  I mean if you have this number, you can order only and you don't need some special shopping.
  Try to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.
  It's really not easy to help you with this.

  And Yes. Part number is something like K000xxxx.

• Qosmio G30 (PQG31) - problem with cloned hard drives

  Hi all!

  * Qosmio G30-154 * (* PQG31 *).

  Demo of the Qosmio has 2 hard drives with XP MCE (32 bit) installed on the primary.
  The RAID parameters are JBOD.
  BIOS is "newer" 3.90

  I would try to upgrade the drives (without installing any OS) and... have a problem!
  BSOD "Stop 0x0000007B" after 'clone with resizing' for the main HARD disk.

  I read on [drivers Toshiba RAID | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=48489] also [how to integrate the AHCI driver when installing Windows XP | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9401AN0000R01.htm] and (or)

  F6 (for all usb drivers) is not available to boot OS, sorry.

  "cloned" drive is in line with the correct name of made in the BIOS. "Cloned" secondary drive works (with old primary school). How to get access to the new primary OS and loading cloned? Please, any ideas?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  I think that the system cannot boot to the new HARD disk as the partition where the system is installed, was not marked as bootable system partition.

  I recommend to insert the previous HARD drive and to start the laptop.
  HARD drive new, cloned could be connected as an external HARD drive to a USB port.

  Then you should go to disk management (right click my computer - manage-> management-> disk management computer)
  Here you can see the HARD internal disk and the 2nd HARD drive connected to the USB port
  Right-click on the partition (2nd HARD drive) where the Win XP has been installed and choose the partition as the system partition and mark it as active.

  Then you could change the HARD drive again and could power the device in place. Usually, the system should boot to the top of the new marked system partition.

• Qosmio G30-155: video Capture does not work using s-video in port

  Toshiba Qosmio G30-155 video capture does not work via the ports of the video (Windows Vista Ultimate x 86) victory of version 3.90 BIOS
  Video capture does not work in Windows Media Center, even if selected as ports of entry port composite or s-video in Windows Media Center settings.

  In the BIOS version 3.90 parameters via esc - F1 can only select this option: NTSC (USA), NTSC (Japan), PAL (S-video).

  It is worth noting that the laptop is supposed to be capture NTSC for composite input mode

  Someone turned to make this model of video capture for laptop, via composite video input with the new version of the BIOS (version 3.90 win)?

  Can you please explain what you want to do exactly?

  Many years ago I had this old Qosmio with TV tuner and antenna in port so I used it to transfer my old VHS format videos and burn movie DVDs.

  To this end, I didn't use Windows Media Center. Why you n t use other recording applications. I think that everyone is better than Windows Media Center.

• Qosmio G30 212 - English recovery CD

  I'm looking for links to download the CD recovery for my Qosmio G30-212, but in English instead of French (which I have now).
  Does anyone know where to find CDs?
  Any help is welcome ;-)

  Hello

  You can order the recovery of the AEP CD in your country. But I guess that you will not be able to order in English. You can only buy the same recovery CD that came with the laptop and it was a French language.

  What you could do is to install the original CD of Microsoft English Windows and then install the drivers of Toshiba of the page.

• 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?

  No, the graphics card can not be upgraded

  What you can do, it is memory and the upgrade of the HARD drive. This should be very easy and should cause no serious problems.

  Upgrading CPU is little tricky.

• Qosmio G30 - software very slow loading

  I have a Qosmio G30 P650 unit and had since 2009. Two weeks only noticed during the bars running under the windows xp loading Win Xp logo slows down and it takes a long time to load windows. He had no other choice but to re - install the software using the recovery CD.

  However, I found that in a first time, the device works well after the resumption, but after turning off and leave for a while and turn it on again a few hours later it's the same thing. The software is loading very slowly. But in safe mode, it's fast.

  What is a hard drive problem? There was a time after that reloading the recovery software (even clear partitions), the software will load more slowly. Sometimes after recovery, it is normal but after reboot, the problem repeats.

  Can someone tell me what could be wrong with this laptop?

  Thank you very much

  > Is this a hard drive problem?
  Perhaps.

  Must test the HARD drive for errors possible there are many diagnostic tools that could test the HARD drive.
  For example: HDD Regenerator 2011, SMARTReporter 3.0.4 or the freeware software called Drive Fitness Test.

• I don't see that drive HARD install Win7 in Qosmio G30

  Hello world

  I tried to install win 7 64 bit in my Qosmio G30. The first problem was when, in the early stages, Setup did not find hard drive. Exactly, he told me that any pilot has been found. logically, if it does not find the drivers, including the hard disk drivers that I couldn't install win 7.
  I see the hard drive in the BIOS, but I can't change its configuration. It is as if it is locked

  Worst of all is that I'm trying to take the win XP but I can't start the operating system. The message is: ' Could' open drive.

  Please, do you know what is the problem?

  Thank you

  Before you start the installation of the OS you need to load the SATA driver. Check please download from Toshiba on http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp page if you can find it here. If this is not the case, let us know.

  I can't find it for you because I know what Qosmio have you (PQG30E or PQG32E).

• How do I know if Qosmio G30-198 is compatible with win 7 64 bit?

  Hi again,

  How will I know if my old Qosmio G30-198 is compatible with win 7 64 bit? I think that there are some not compatible microprocessors.

  Thank you

  Hello

  As I m not wrong, G30-198 supports the Intel® Core 2 Duo T7200 processor

  According to the Intel page http://ark.intel.com/products/27255/Intel-Core2-Duo-Processor-T7200 this processor supports 64-bit architecture
  So you shouldn't have trouble to install a 64-bit system

• Update hardware and software Qosmio G30-198 for hight performance

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio G30-198.

  I have to use Autodesk Civil 3D program in the laptop.
  This is a CAD program that requires a lot of ram and a transmission of data high-speed HARD drive.
  To do this, it is absolutely necessary to update hardware and software for civil use with good performance.

  I need to buy and install HDD SSD, install more RAM (which is the maximum allowed in this computer?) and I need to install Win 7 Professional 64 bit.

  Please,

  If anyone can tell me how I can further improve the performance of the laptop, please tell me.
  I don't know what steps I need to keep.

  Can you help me?

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  The RAM can be expanded up to 4 GB
  As far as I know this laptop supports the Intel® 945 PM Express chipset and supports this chipset may 4 GB of RAM
  http://Ark.Intel.com/products/chipsets/22817

  The HDD or SSD drive update shouldn't be a big problem.
  Usually the built in SATA controller should be able to manage the common SATA SSDS
