Qosmio F10 - VHS to DVD

Hi all
Any tip on how to convert a VHS movie into a DVD than can be played on a conventional DVD player would save me a lot of headache (such as conversion format, size, etc...).
It seems that I only have Windows Movie Maker installed on the F10.
Thank you in advance.

visit VHS to DVD and transfer your home video tapes to dvd. You can get a pretty good conversion at a reasonable price from a lot of places. But what are most of these companies lacking? Care and attention to detail! Other ways you get totally amateurish product done with domestic equipment.

  • Qosmio F10 additional software DVD broken

    Hi all,
    I was wondering if anyone kind enough could help me. I had to format my computer recently and re-install everything. However i managed to sit on one of the disks which was lying on my bed at the time and broke it. Its the Addition Software CD (PMR400262EU0). The problem is that the Intervideo WinDVD player toshiba build specific for Qosmio engine software is located on there and you can not download it from Toshiba website nor from Intervideo.
    Next problem is my laptop is refurbished and over one year old, i have contacted the retail store i bought it from and no help, also contact thoshiba support and they can not help me either as the software is not carried under warrenty and they wont replace it. So i was wondering if someone could send me a copy, as proof i have the original dvd-rom that i broke. i could send a picture of it or the actual thing with a blank dvd if need be.
    thanks for your kind help and regards,
    Alex

    Unfortunately, the OEM Toshiba software could be delivered only with the notebook and cannot be interchanged or shared.
    You can order this CD from the Toshiba service partner. Of course, the CD and DVD are not covered by warranty but you can buy it. I think you need some vouchers.
    However, it should be possible to buy the CD and I dont think thats expensive

  • My Qosmio F10 doesnt burn CD's or DVDs

    Hi all..please i need help..my Notebook(Qosmio F10) is not budrning any cd's or dvd's!!!! i really dont know why..i already tryed to install a new DVD-Rom new soft ware but stilln ot working..it reads only but when i wanna brun is not working!!!!!HELP

    Hi
    In my opinion your drive is defective. Laser position for reading or writing is not the same. If you want to test it remove drive from device manager and restart the unit. Check the burning option also with Nero burning program. If there is no success I presume that drive is defective. Contact service partner and if the warranty is still valid the drive should be changed for free.

  • Qosmio F10: Recovery DVD doesn't work?

    Hi. I have a F10 series qosmio series lappy and well and well i keep getting random shutdowns, freezes, and a logon error every time i start up.
    This has got very disturbing for me. I tried to use the system recovery cd i got with my laptop and when i follow the procedure stated in the user manual it starts the recovery then flashes that my system does not support the recovery.
    Is this normal especially when i got my recovery disc with my laptop. I wish to reformat my hard drive back to factory settings and have it completely wiped with out having to buy a totally new hard-drive and windows xp.
    What do i do and how can you assist me in this? I'm at the end of my teather as one of my jobs is an internet dj and I cannot keep crashing in the middle of my streaming. I do not wish to loose my job!!
    please help!

    Hi
    Very strange! The fact is that you cannot use different recovery CD because every Recovery CD was designed for one Toshiba notebook model. For example you cannot use a Qosmio F10 recovery CD on a Qosmio G20.
    However, I assume you use the delivered recovery CD (as you said) and usually the recovery procedure should works without any warnings or error messages.
    In my opinion there is something wrong with the CD. Maybe the wrong CD was shipped with this notebook?
    I recommend asking the Toshiba ASP in your country. There you can also order the new CD.

  • Qosmio F10-103, Unmountable_ boot_ volume.......what can I do??

    Hi,
    I have a Qosmio F10-103.
    One day ago the blue page with
    the writing ''Unmountable_ boot_ volume''
    appeared!
    What can I do?
    I red on some forums that it (could) be
    a problem of the Hard disk and that
    I could repair the cpu using the
    windows xp boot cd , copying the files
    boot.ini , NTDETECT.com , NTLDR ...but.....
    Toshiba gave me only the DVD-rom backup,
    not xp boot.
    Then I tried to use that DVD end I entered
    into the Toshiba Recover Utility 1.0.1.0
    and I had a disk checking.....the result was:
    ''Application error 29004
    Read sector failure, result =1, drive=128, sectors
    132479 to 132481 if the problem persists contact toshiba....''
    Here I am!
    It's useful to say that all the modes of booting
    windows doesn't work.
    Also, the ''look-like dos prompt'' that appears
    once exit from the recover utility doesn't permit
    to copy the file I need from the DVD.
    What can I do???
    Is there something to do before......the formatting
    procedure??
    Thanks a lot!!!!!

    Hi,
    it seems that your Qosmio has a corrupted windows. Like you wrote you can copy the missing or corrupted files from another media. It's right, the Toshiba recovery CD/DVD contains only an image and is a OEM version!
    But you can copy these files also from another PC or Notebook. Then take a boot diskette and boot the Notebook. Then copy the files in DOS mode and try to reboot. Then it should work again!
    Bye and Good Luck

  • Qosmio F10: Monitor screen looks like an Andy Warhol picture

    I am currently having problems with my monitor screen looking like an Andy Warhol picture. I have resorted to going through the Product Recovery DVD-ROM for my Qosmio F10/G10 Laptop in the hope that reverting it back to the factory settings would solve the problem but it hasn't.
    The screen breaks down after the Windows welcome screen, leaving me with my desktop all Andy Warhol like (i.e. blocks of pixilated colour at the edges of the graphics). I have tried to reset the resolution which solves the problem to an almost acceptable level but on a temporary basis, because the problem re-appears again when I re-boot the laptop.
    I think that it is something to do with the Windows Multimedia Operating system that was preinstalled on my computer (so no recovery disc). The reasoning behind this assumption is that I put a DVD film into the Multimedia that is part of Windows XP and the film is a moving Andy Warhol video.
    I put the same DVD into the WinDVD that came as a Toshiba additional content and the DVD is perfect! My reasoning is, that if there was something wrong with the hardware of the Laptop, then all DVD reading programs would react the same way, but as they do not, it must be a programming (or operating system problem).
    Am I on the right lines? Is there a way to solve the problem via a downloadable file?

    Thanks guys for your replies, sorry if my question is confusing, but I couldn't think of any other way of describing it without the use of a screen dump to show you.
    At the moment I haven't got another monitor to try, even though this looks as though it would have been the easiest option. I shall start asking round to see if I can borrow one to eliminate that variable.
    However I will try to reinstall and to update "Graphic Drivers" to get rid out of this display problem.
    Thanks to all.

  • F10 - create video DVD from recorded TV programme

    When I try to create a DVD from a recorded TV programme on my Qosmio F10 I get the following message-
    "Media in the CD/DVD drive is not writable by Media Center"
    I know that the media is writable by the Qosmio under normal windows but under Media Center it doesn't work on any format of DVD - data, video or DVD slide show.
    Any ideas?
    Tia,
    Les

    Hi
    I found information that the driver upgrade can solve the problem.
    Furthermore you can check this links. There useful und interesting news about Media Center.

  • Need Windvd 5 for my Qosmio F10

    Hello,
    I have a Qosmio F10..a Japanese one...I live in Turkey and formatted my f10 ..Now it is English but I do not have programs such as Windvd and dvr ...and I cannot watch TV in windows XP...please someone help me ..I need windvr 5 for Toshiba (English)...
    Thanks

    Hello
    WinDVD and WinDVD Creator applications are a part of the recovery image and it can not be downloaded or installed separately.
    You can also use other applications for watching DVDs like PowerDVD or something similar. I presume that your Windows option is not MCE and in this way you need some other application for watching TV. I am not familiar with TV tuner built in Japanese units but I have heard that Japanese units have TV tuner that can be used in whole world.
    If you have solution for this issue please let us know.
    Good luck!

  • No audio in my Qosmio f10-101 notebook

    Hello,
    My qosmio f10-101 was working properly but for some reasons I used the product recovery DVD-ROM, after I've got finished with the recovery DVD i restarted the system and unfortunately this blue screen kept showing on the screen and the system kept rebooting automatically.
    Anyhow I decided to install a windows xp professional original version that I had before and it was perfectly installed except for ONE  problem
    I found that there is no audio in the pc, i tried each and every way to fix the problem, i've used the "tools and utilities" cd-rom and all divers were installed except for the audio driver, i keep getting this message "microsoft bus driver should be installed before installing the audio driver", so i downloaded the bus driver but still I cant install the audio driver
    I've been trying to fix this problem for 6 months now but I failed to
    any reply would be very appreciated
    thank you

    Qosmio F10-101 
    Probably you installed in the wrong order. You should install the chipset software followed by the display driver prior to any other driver. Also, install the Common Modules before any other Toshiba utility.
    Get the Toshiba drivers and utilities for that model here.
    I have attached the suggested order of installation.

  • Qosmio F10: TV function doesn't work properly in the MCE

    I have a Qosmio F10, the TV Function has never worked properly when trying to watch TV in the Media centre Mode, only when switched on without goint through windows.
    I have connected the aerial to a loft aerial which provides a perfect signal for other Televisions.
    When I go to settings it always comes up no signal found any ideas?

    Hi
    I presume that your unit is preinstalled with recovery media and if yes, in this case you dont need any driver. The hardware is configured properly and it must work well if the antenna is connected properly. In my opinion you should learn more about Media Center Edition and how it works. Make a try with VHS recorder. Connect it to the notebook and scan the channels. The MCE will find just one channel (in my case number 30) and you can watch VHS cassettes on your notebook.
    Please check this page http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/mediacenter/default.mspx
    And there you will find explanation how it works.
    Good luck!

  • Qosmio F10 doesn't run after recovery procedure

    Hi, I have just purchased the toshiba recovery dvd for my qosmio f10 laptop, i put the dvd in and it goes through the recovery process and completes 100% it then tells me to remove the dvd and then press CTRL ALT DELETE to restart the computer.
    Upon doing so it gets to the screen were it tells me windows is starting then the screen goes blank and flickers a couple of times, then the laptop re-boots and keeps on doing this, I press the F8 key when it restarts to go into save mode, but when it goes into save mode it tells me that windows is not fully set and won't go any further and tells me that I need to run set up again.
    I do not have a windows cd only the dvd from toshiba which should put my laptop back to factory settings.
    Can aynone help me before I ring toshiba?
    thank you.

    Hi
    Its not easy to say why it happens. Usually the Toshiba recovery CD should works properly and after whole recovering procedure the notebook should run without any problems.
    You have suggested that you have ordered this recovery CD from the ASP.
    Did you get the right recovery CD? Check the CD description.
    The other possibility is that the unit has a hardware fault. In this case you should contact the Toshiba service. Sorry but this is all what I can suggest.
    regards

  • Qosmio F10 won't recover after motherboard replacement

    Hi,
    I'm having a problem with recovery on my Qosmio F10. It won't boot from the CD, I get a message 'media test failure check cable'.
    I tried everything I could find here about this problem with no result. Then I read somewhere on this forum that recovery cd wouldn't work if the laptop has been serviced and has a new motherboard. This is excatly the case.
    I had a new motherboard and CD/DVD drive put some time ago.
    How do I make it work again?
    A.

    > Then I read somewhere on this forum that recovery cd wouldn't work if the laptop has been serviced and has a new motherboard. This is exactly the case.
    Who has replaced the motherboard? The ASP?
    Well, usually the Recovery CD should works after the motherboard replacement.
    I presume the parts were replaced with exactly the same parts and therefore there shouldnt be a conflict between the Recovery CD and the new motherboard.
    Did you try to boot from another bootable CDs like Win XP or Linux? Check this!

  • Qosmio F10 get the error "IDE #0 ERROR

    Hi Maarten
    I suppose that there is some problem with HDD. Obviously the HDD is not recognized by BIOS and it is not possible to access on it.
    Please contact your local dealer immediately and explain him the problem.

  • Qosmio F10-136 - Unable to install any drivers

    I have a Qosmio F10-136.
    I have recently formatted the hard drive. Since I had lost the recovery disc, I had to use another copy of Windows. I downloaded the drivers available online from the Toshiba website but I have been unable to install any drivers except the wireless LAN. Most driver setups refuse to run at all, some seem to install the files, but the driver is not detected.
    Please advise.

    > 1. Sound device not working still - When I install the audio effect driver (i.e. toshiba virtual sound), there does not seem to be any effect even though it is installed. Then, when I install the SoundMax Audio System, it gives me an that the driver does not exist.
    What do you mean exactly by does not seem to be any effect. Can you hear the sound coming from the speakers? Are there any yellow exclamation marks related to the sound card? If not then the sound card driver has been installed properly and the sound should work!
    > 2. I cannot figure how to install the LAN driver.
    Where is the problem? Download the LAN driver, unzip the package, access the device manager, choose the unknown device (LAN card), point to the driver files downloaded from the Toshiba driver page and finish the installation.
    The LAN card should be recognized properly.
    > 3. Same with the TV tuner drivers; there is not setup file.
    As mentioned above; you can install the drivers in device manager. Choose TV tuner in device manager (possibly marked as unknown device too.) point to the TV tuner driver files and finish the installation.
    > 4. During the windows setup, I had created 3 drives, but I cannot access the drives D & E. When I try to access them, windows asks me to format them, but it gives me an error when I try to do so. Also, the hard drive is not shown in the disk management (not even C drive), so I cannot do anything. Although, the hard drive is shown in the device manager.
    If other partitions have been created on the HDD then this should be visible in disk management. I dont believe that you cannot see even the C partition. In my opinion you didnt check this correctly.
    Access the disk management (MY Computer, right click, manage). Choose Disk Management. There you should see the HDD and CD/DVD drive.
    If the partitions have been created but not formatted then you would see just a free space.
    Click right on this space and you could either format this or could delete the partition.
    PS: I recommend using a 3rd party tool like Partitions Magic in order to create the partitions on the HDD (Win XP)!!!

  • Qosmio F10: USB-Boot needed.

    Hi all
    I have an Toshiba Qosmio F10 series.
    I need the ability to boot from usb stick.
    As toshiba-BIOS doesn't offer a USB-boot option, I want to ask if someone knows a
    way how it will be possible.
    Thanks in advance to all!

    @r2d2
    thanks for your answer.
    One possibility is to use the usb-boot-fdd to redirect to the stick
    (means to create a boot-disk which has usb-drivers and checks the devices (stick or hdd/DVD ) for a bootable syste)
    do you know how to create such a floppy-disk?
