• Your opinion about Satellite A100-906

  I'm about to buy.
  Anyone can recommend?

  I personally interested in the life of its graphics and battery.

  I do have problems with Go7600 overheat?
  If she is underclocked?
  No problem with the CD/DVD-ROM?

  The laptop seems to be not not bad.
  To my knowledge, it has been bundled with Intel Core Duo (Yonah) T2400 1.83 GHz CPU and nVIDIA GeForce Go7600 FX card supports 256 MB graphic memory. It is not a shared memory!
  You ask for chart overheat? I do not have this kind of problems. As far as I know the Toshiba own graphics drivers are supported an option against the overheating of the graphics card.

  But it seems that it is not always possible to install the drivers of different graphics on laptops. Therefore, it would be possible that you will not get the latest graphics driver. It is sometimes a little boring because new computer need especially games the latest drivers graphics card.

  However, the duration of battery life depends on the use of the laptop and it is not easy to tell the exact time. The laptop must support a DVD player - Super Multi (+ R) double layer.
  I read that sometimes readers can't burn CDs or DVDs, but in my opinion every media is compatible and therefore these problems occur.

• Your opinion about Satellite L350-170

  Hello

  I ve been looking at this laptop for a few days now and I m thinking go for it when I get my pay.
  I just want to know if someone there what they think of him. What's the life of the battery as etc.

  Congratulations in advance :)

  Hello

  I use Toshiba laptops for long time now and to be honest I don't like the L series laptops. The notebooks are OK, but I don't like the design. This negative one s for me

  I must also say that quality-price ratio for this laptop is great, but I prefer to improve the design and because of this, I have my second Satellite phone.
  Back to Satellite L350-170. I don't know how much it costs, but for that money, you will get excellent laptop with great 17 inch screen and it is perfect for every working day.
  There is also a webcam with built-in microphone allowing you a perfect by Skype and other messengers communication.
  For the life of the battery is not possible to provide the exact duration, but it is similar to my Satellite and I can work on 1.5 hours of battery power. But to be honest, this laptop is for me although permanent replacement and Office to work on the desktop with AC power supply.
  OK all of us have different opinions on this subject.

  So the question is who would you need the laptop. You want to upgrade the RAM and so on (you can improve it up to 4 GB)?
  Talk about this with your local dealer.

• Your opinion about Tecra A4-227

  Hi all!

  I come from Hungary, I'm very bad at English, so I'm sorry. I would like to buy a laptop Tshiba (Tecra A4-227). I would like to known this laptop has that quality, and what you think, it is a laptop good or bad?

  Goodbye: Attka

  Hello Attka

  First of all, I must tell you that Tecra is a unit commercial and very comfortable to use. You can plug it into the Advanced Port Replicator (connector docking station on the underside) and on this path should not attach all the cables you need. The unit is already preinstalled with WXP Pro and the hardware components are very good. I put t know the exact specification of A4 - 227, but you can have it with different graphics (64 MB or 128 MB) and HDD (40 GB, 60 GB or 80 GB).

  AFAIK unit has WLAN and it is Bluetooth ready, and you can build in Bluetooth card whenever you want. The design is very nice and in my opinion, it is very nice unit. Before you buy a collection of information on the graphics card, display and that lead is because Tecra comes with three different discs. One of them even comes with drive DVD-Super Multi double layer.

  Compare prices and have lots of fun.

  Good bye

• Your opinion about Satellite L775-111

  Someone at - it what model or able to give comments about it. It seems a reasonable price for its construction. 729 what other i5 17 inches could I get with the dedicated graphics card

  Thank you
  Geoff

  Hi Geoff,

  I have put this model in front of me, but I tested a bit in my favorite and checked computer store the plug on the site Web of Toshiba.

  It s great computer laptop for applications such as office, emails, photos, music, Internet, etc. 17-inch screen is large and perfect for Blu - ray and other videos. Also it s comfortable to work on it. With the second generation of Intel Core processors it of Nice to work because it has good performance. In addition, it has speakers Onkyo.

  The preinstalled version of Windows 7 offers a few nice applications like Eco Utility, which helps save energy and improves the life of the battery, anti-virus program, burning, and other tools are already preinstalled. So it s really read to use.

  Other Toshiba C670 and P770 models have 17 display too.

• Your opinion about RAM latency

  Hello

  This may seem like a silly question but, is it better (performance wise) have a high density of RAM with a high latency (e.g., 1 G CASE 5-5-5-15) GOLD of low density and low latency (512 MB 4-4-4-12, for example)?

  Thank you
  Oliver

  Hello Olivier

  I guess I didn't understand you well, but I recommend you to use 1 GB of RAM. :)
  Make sure that you are using compatible. By the way: I guess you have compatible RAM 1 GB module and M50 is PA3313U-2M1G.

• Your opinion about decide is it a GTX 560, 570, 580 or 590 card to buy.

  Hi all

  I read a few posts on the CS5 compatible current maps, but I still have an ew issues before deciding what to buy.  I want to make sure that I get the good card (s) first.  I have a W7 x 64 processors i7920 with 12 GB of ram ddr3.

  I do mainly industrial videos with 2 to 5 in most video layers and some boris Red 5 effects and transitions. I like to use the movement and shadows on the insert images and text.  I also do a little animation 3D using Lightwave 3D.

  My question is on what graphics card be more appropreate for this kind of work allowing me to make me insights quickly and play the timeline in real time or near real time.

  Would one or two GTX 560, 570, 580 or 590 suffice or do I need something more powerful?

  Thank you.

  I can't provide to associated Adobe specs, but here:

  http://www.hwcompare.com/9133/GeForce-GTX-560-TI-vs-GeForce-GTX-580/

  The 580 will certainly give better performance, but the 560 will be more effective. If you can afford it, go 580.

• Qosmio G40-108: Question about CPU upgrade

  Dear friends, I am an Italian man who asks if it is possible to change the CPU (T7700) of my Qosmio g40-108 with the new T9300 (like USA G45-AV690)

  All the best
  David

  Hi david

  Please understand that mobile technology is completely different Office of PC technology and motherboards are all just different.
  Upgrading the CPU's especially not possible or very risky for other reasons.

  A main reason could be overheating; as you know the stronger CPU would produce more heat and this could lead to a higher temperature and finally to overheating...

  In addition you BIOS was not configured for other processors so it possible s that your laptop does not start after such update!

  See you soon

• Qosmio G40 - update graphics card

  Hello world

  I know it works has already answered in October 2009, but I have a few not 100% course info on the upgrade of the graphics cards. Now I have a qosmio g40-10 with nvidia geforce 8600 with 512 video memory. Because this card is purely not enough for the high-end gaming today, I want to update at least 1 GB of video memory. Like many people here, I tried to find some information online but its just waste of time. I asked in each PC store in my town this topic and 60% of them responded that it is possible, but it will cost you so.

  They could not tell exactly witch card should take but logically it will be nvidia series that were used by Toshiba manufacter, what I'll do I will find some young model of Toshiba nvidia cards and will just try to adapt it. Logically that laptops Toshiba chassy is almost the same, of course mounting screws can be different, but ultimately, it's a project. The only problem is the motherboard, I heard that this motherboard is unable to accept certain graphics cards.

  If you have some info on this please let me know.
  Also different (highest card) coz, there will be cooling problem so if you have ideas to solve heating, please share it with me.
  Thanks much adrian

  Hello Adrian

  I guess that you know very well that the possibilities of upgrade on mobile units are very limited; especially GPU or CPU upgrade and laptop manufacturers offer don t any kind of support. Because of the design specific common problem for mobile units is cooling system. More performance means more heat and more heat, compromised of portable computer hardware switch or damage.

  Manufacturers of portable don t support cela and don offers t any helpful info about it. GPU upgrade in my opinion is not a good idea. OK, you can do with your laptop that you want and play a little bit, but I'm afraid that your project is too risky and will not end with success of m.

  If you need a more powerful computer I think it's time for the new portable computer with more powerful hardware. What you think so.

• PCI Express Error - Qosmio G40 - 10Z

  Yesterday I turned on my laptop and I got a black screen with the message "PCI Express Error"

  Some of the many topics that I found about this error.

  I bought my laptop model from January 2009 as a demo in a Dutch shop called Qplaza http://www.qplaza.nl/

  Don't think I have any warranty next to security,) I received store (2 years), but there are a few things I don't understand.

  As I understand it, it's that there is even a lawsuite on this problem and that it indeed was a problem with chips from nvidia 8600. But then why won't Toshiba or Nvidia fix laptops with these problems?

  I read my laptop have to go to the special repair service to replace my motherboard and I have to pay for myself.
  And that's IF they can fix my laptop.

  I started searching the Internet which could be the cost of price, but the answers don't make me a very happy woman :-(

  Is there another way to solve this problem?
  And are there not places where you can buy a very appropriate motherboard for this laptop?

  Can someone help me please? My laptop worked perfectly and without any warning... poof... can not run more.

  Hello

  I can understand that you are not happy with the current situation. Nobody is happy if the computer starts to malfunction, but it of not always easy to tell which is the reason. For the exact diagnosis, you need professional tools and these tools available only to an authorized service provider.

  I get bored in your ad information is information about the operating system. Are you using the version preinstalled Windows and you have already collected your notebook back to factory settings? If not, you should do this to make sure that it s no software or driver that is causing the problem.

  If it still doesn't work you should get in touch with an authorized service provider and talk with the guys what they can do for you. I m, they can make you an offer for spare parts if you need them and a good price too of course. Just talk to the technicians is that as possible. ;)

• Qosmio G40 - no webcam with live Messenger

  Hello world

  I installed Win 7 on my Qosmio G40 instead of Vista and everything work fine except the webcam that does not work with live Messenger (only) no matter what I do (I tried several drivers, re-installed Win messenger live, close some processes, etc ;) I get this error message:

  '* Cannot start your webcam. "Check if it is not used by another program and retry."

  What the hell can I do to fix this?

  Hello

  I read a lot of discussions about the problems with webcam and messenger Ms.
  The problem with Vista has been resolved by the SP1 from Microsoft Update.
  Now, it seems to be that the same problem with Win 7 looks like a thing of compatibility

  However, because the message says that the webcam is used by another application, I suppose that some background processes lock the webcam

  You must remove webcam and messenger MS startup in msconfig.
  After that, restart the laptop and don t start the webcam software if you want to use it in Messenger from Ms.

• Qosmio G40-108 does not start

  Hi Gang

  I hope that there is some good buddies out there that can save a window double glazing to be mullared by that lappy.
  I had (Qosmio G40-108 with 4 GB of RAM) since August 2007. Everything was fine until two weeks about where it kept crashing during the execution of a couple normal progs that I use.
  After reading several messages from buddies with similar problems, I think it might be the PCI express graphics. Is this good? I can swap out? Or advice, blaggs, ideas or suggestions are very welcome. :)

  Your Qosmio freezes simply and you must turn off or switches off without any warning messages?

• Qosmio G40 - 11 d - every 2-3 minutes freeze the system

  Hardware: Computer laptop Toshiba Qosmio G40 - 11 d, bios 2008, OCZ Vertex 3 SSD
  Software: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit all updates from windows update.

  Problem:
  Every 2-3 minutes freeze the system - to stop the disc - LED disc controller turned on all the time.

  I did the following:
  1. I installed the drivers of intel (iata_cd.exe) of http://downloadmirror.intel.com/19607/a08/iata_cd.exe
  2. I ran the ocz.reg script:
  Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

  "LPM" = DWORD: 00000000
  "LPMDSTATE" = DWORD: 00000000

  The problem has been eliminated, but not quite. Now, the system stops only at idle speed... (aflter - 10-30 min)

  Let me know what I do next.

  Hey Buddy,

  Have you noticed the same behavior with preinstalled Toshiba or did it only with your new SSD HDD?

  You might have to update the firmware of the SSD. You should check the official website of OCZ if there is a newer version. If Yes, start the update firmware and then check again if it works or not.

• Qosmio G40 - ALERT: System Protection failure

  I used my Qosmio G40 - Vista with no problems since I bought it in November 2007.

  A week ago, he started acting funny. Whenever I turn it on, I get a black screen with the following message:

  ALERT: System Protection failure
  Password =

  Now need a password...
  I had never put no password to the BIOS level, or the level of Windows, so there is no password I could enter.
  So I'm stuck, because the laptop does not accept the ENTER key without any password entry.
  I also tried standard passwords like "Toshiba" nothing helps.

  Can someone help me with this issue?

  Best regards.

  Hello

  To me, it seems that you are talking about BIOS password.
  First of all; There is no default password BIOS.

  I have no idea why the laptop asks you a BIOS password if you didn't put in the past, but the point is that it s is not possible to delete or modify the BIOS password without knowing the old password.

  In this case only the Toshiba ASP may be able to remove the password.
  So I have no other recommendation on contact an ASP in your country and by asking guys to remove the password.
