Qosmio F60-10K and SSD Speed

Hello I have new problem xD maybe not so big :)
I bought Calisto Mushkin Delux SSD 240 B speed is 285/275...
I install Windows what get with my laptop via Recovery DVDs and I put out-of-box installation , my SSD speed on benchmark is about 150/145 and not over 200 like I bought I read somewhere its not good for SSD to put IMAGE, and Toshiba Windwos Recovery CD put IMAGE on and I think this is because of this it decrease my speed of SSD.
So quastion is how to put Speed on SSD over 200 mb is maybe solution to install some fresh Windwos 7 not out of box or ?
Btw2... I want to crypt my SSD with TrueCrypt 7.0A ... how this decrease my SSD speed if someone know.
Thank you all who help me, last problem what I put on this forum was resolved because nice people :) ty all !

Hey,
Of course you can test it with your own Windows installation but I doubt its a problem of preinstalled OS from Toshiba. I mean this image is tested and configured for your notebook
In your case I would also check the firmware version of your SSD. Maybe there is an update for it.
Make also sure that BIOS version of your notebook is newest one.

  • Qosmio F60-10K - Exact drivers or recovery disk

    Hello,
    I have recently purchased this model, however got some problems with HDD and had to fully format it. So Recovery function is lost. Couldnt find exact drivers for this model and as I used drivers I have found under name Qosmio F60, made laptop boot longer and Win Experience index is quite lower.
    So the question is, where could I find exact drivers for Toshiba Qosmio F60-10K or order recovery DVD/BD?

    Hi s0vijus,
    If you search for exact drivers, it would be very interesting to know which OS you are using. The drivers for Windows 7 32bit and Windows 7 64bit are different so its an important information. Normally everything can be downloaded here:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
    Last but not least you can order a recovery disk here from Toshiba directly but its not for free:

  • Qosmio F60-10K: Win 7 64bit does not recognize all devices attached to USB

    Hi,
    I have one problem. I dont know is this from first run my Toshiba what was before 6 months or from then...
    some USB are recognized some are not but many not just few USB are recognized I mean on USB sticks, External hard drive USB too.
    I have 2 external USB hard drive one is recohnized 1 is not, btw.. when i start Vmware XP it recognized all USB and my all external hard drive but in windows 7 some USB are recognized some are not...
    It find something is attached to USB but then say no driver, I tried on other Windows 7 on other computer it working USB and external Hard Drive but to my Toshiba Windows 7 64 Bit don't works, btw.. usb are good because when I turn on Vmware it working :((
    And why I dont have anymore drivers on support and then drivers its say no product, btw... F60-10K driver page dont exist anymore !
    Thank you, vfranges
    Btw.. Sorry on english xD

    Hi vfranges,
    Yes, you dont need the Toshiba recovery disk because you can use the HDD recovery files to reinstall Windows. But to be on the safely side you should create the disk before you start HDD recovery. If something goes wrong, you can use the recovery disk.
    Back to your question: The HDD recovery feature you can start in advanced boot menu of Windows. So press F8 key before Windows starts and select Repair My Computer and follow the screen instructions to start HDD recovery.
    By the way: All these information you can find in user manual! ;)

  • Qosmio F60-10K USB Problem

    Hi
    ...and suddenly all usb ports decided not to recognise anything attached like mouse, external HDD. The funny thing is that the ports are actually live as they provide power and as they are shown to be in the Device Manager window.
    I've tried the following
    1) Updated the BIOS
    2) Updated the chipset
    3) Checked the plug and play service
    3) Unistalled the usb ports and installed them back
    4) Unplugged the devices and plugged them again
    5) Unplugged the AC cord and the battery and plugged them back
    6) Checked the external devices, worked fine on another PC
    7) Prayed for divine intervention
    None of the above worked
    Anybody out there to help?
    Thanks in advanced

    So basically what you're telling people is, "It's not toshiba's job to test all hardware - the new owner must test every conceivable problem before installing anything"
    This is wrong on many levels:
    1) many usb devices require installation first, so one must waste time installing all sorts of things only to find they need to do a total reinstall of the os?
    2) If, as in my case, some devices only work in some usb plugs, the problem may or may not be fixed.
    I think the better solution is for the machine be returned to Toshiba, and your staff to reinstall the OS until it works right......

  • Qosmio F60-11F - Drivers for Windows 7 32bit

    Hi .
    I have Qosmio F60-11F and I install windows 7 ultimate 32bit , and I am facing a problem with all drivers.
    I search in support driver section in site of Toshiba, but I found only bluetooth, also I need power managment for Windows 7 32bit.
    thanx

    Hey,
    As far as I know Qosmio F60 is preinstalled with Windows 7 64bit...
    That means you have installed 32bit version of Windows 7 but why? Normally 64bit OS is the future and supports only 4GB or more RAM. 32bit is pretty outdated for such a new high performance notebook
    I think this is the reason why you cant get all drivers on official Toshiba page because its designed for 64bit OS only
    If you really want 32bit you must search for drivers yourself on external websites.

  • Qosmio F60-10J - Standby mode function

    Hello all,
    most computers can be set to standby mode and switch back to wortking state after some time automatically.
    There is a feature in the windows operating system which manages it and it is for example used by the task manager. When you create a task in the windows task manager, you can request it to wake up the computer from the standby mode at the moment when the task has to be executed. And it is what happens on most computers. Some other applications use the same feature and are able to wake up a computer for executing tasks at a given time.
    None of these applications seem to work on my Toshiba Qosmio F60-10j and this means probably that the BIOS and the electronics of the computer do not take in account the necessary features. This is the first computer I see failing in this kind of use. It's a pity because it's a way to save power. For executing a task with this computer at a given moment, it seems necessary to keep it completely working and waiting for the moment when the task has to be executed. On most other computers, it's possible to turn them in standby mode, they restart when it's time working.
    May be it's a bug in the BIOS and a fix is available?
    Best regards.
    D.F.

    Hello,
    I'll try to be clearer.
    When you set your computer in standby mode, usually, you restart it by pressing on the power switch or on the keyboard.
    But there is another way.
    Before the computer is set to standby mode, a program can request windows to restart automatically the computer at a given moment wiithout any action of the user. I use this a lot for example for capturing videos on TV. The computer stays in standby while waiting for the broadcast, and retarts at the moment when it has to record it.
    If you want to be more technical, the windows API which does that is named SetWaitableTimer, and the parameter to start this function is a boolean named fResume.
    So for example; if your program requested to resume the computer at 9 AM and if you set it to standby at 8:30 AM (or if it went in standby mode by itself ar 8:30) the computer will restart without any new action at 9 AM.
    I use it for a long time on several computers, 2 Compaq, one Acer, and one IBM, with Windows XP and Vista.
    A standard program shipped with windows uses this feature, it's the task manager (the windows scheduler) which is able to resume a computer in standby mode at the moment when a task is scheduled if it requests it.
    What happens on the Qosmio ? simply nothing. Even if a program or the task manager requested it to resume at a given time, it stays in stanby mode. Of course, once the power switch is pressed, the computer restarts normally. But it seems that this computer has not the ability to restart automatically after a given time.
    The O.S. is Windows 7 64, the one that was shipped with the computer.
    I have no way to see if this comes from windows or from the computer. I never tested this on another windows 64 configuration. Anyway, it's a kernel function of windows and it's used by an important and standard windows tool, so that I don't think that there is a bug in the windows part. But of course, when the computer is on standby, windows is stopped and the restarting process relies completely on the electronics and BIOS of the computer, and in my opinion, the failure is probably there.
    For now, the consequence for me is that i let the Qosmio running for example when waiting for recording a video, but I don't like it because it wastes power and makes the computer, its fan and disk run for nothing.
    Best regards.

  • Qosmio F60 - remove graphics border around webcam picture frame

    I recently bought a Qosmio F60 laptop and when initially setting up/ testing the webcam for use on Skype, I rather foolishly chose a graphics border for around the frame of the webcam picture with lots of yellow stars.
    This ends up blocking a large part of the webcam picture when on Skype, which is very annoying, but I can't seem to figure out a way to get rid of it. I'm sure it's a very simple option somewhere in the webcam settings to turn it off, but any help would be appreciated before it drives me mad!
    Thanks

    Start web camera application and there you will find option Effect. Open it and go to second tab called Frame.
    Click there on OFF and I presume the problem will be solved.

  • Qosmio F60 - Bluescreen while sleepmode

    Hi Community,
    i have a problem with a Qosmio F60-10L and Windows 7 Home:
    15 minutes after switching in sleepmode, i get a bluescreen and
    the Qosmio reboot the system.
    Do you know how i can fix this bug?
    Thanks for answer!
    Joerg

    Hi, dude
    It looks like Os/driver related issue. Reinstall Windows with recovery disk. Please, understand me right, reinstalling takes you less time and effort than fixing issue. Personally, i can fix almost all Windows problems but I prefer to reinstall it. Fixing takes more time....

  • Qosmio F60 battery handling

    i have just purchased a qosmio f60-033 and i was wondering what the battery life is like on the 6cell battery with the discdrive disabled (non-eco & eco mode)
    also out of curiousity
    will the battery life die quicker if i use the laptop with the battery in while connected to the ac adapter? or will the battery stop charging when it is fully charged
    thanks :)

    Hi
    You dont need to remove the battery while the AC adaptor is connected.
    The connected AC adaptor will not affect the new age batteries.
    > i have just purchased a qosmio f60-033 and i was wondering what the battery life is like on the 6cell battery with the discdrive disabled (non-eco & eco mode)
    The battery working time depends on the notebook usage. There are many different factors which could affect the battery working time; for example the software which is running, display backlight level, background processes and CPU/GPU usage rate etc
    I know once for sure; this is a multimedia notebook and you should not expect that you could work longer than 1.5h-2 hours with the battery power.

  • Qosmio F60 - Cannot use touchpad Two-Finger scroll function

    Hey there,
    i recently got a harddrive replacment for my Qosmio f60 laptop and windows had to be reloaded.
    When my laptop was previously working i could two-finger scroll on pages and such,
    Now i cant, and i cannot find a setting for it anywhere.
    ive downloaded a driver called 'scrybe' which allows me to do this,
    but i would much prefer not running an extra processor and just using the laptops default function.
    Can anyone explain why my laptop previously let me do this and now cant? and how i could fix it?
    thanks heaps!
    -Brenton

    > can anyone explain why my laptop previously let me do this and now cant?
    Maybe the Synaptics touchpad driver is not installed?
    The Synaptics driver provides additional touchpad features.
    Therefore I recommend installing this driver.
    The settings can be found in control panel -> mouse -> Advanced tab -> advanced settings

  • SSD for a Qosmio F60

    Hello, I have a Qosmio F60, and I want to change the standard sata HD for a SSD one. Is it possible? What kind of SSD specifications should I look for?
    Thank you in advabce for your help

    SSD upgrade is possible but I presume new SSD will not work on maximum speed. It is not so bad because SSDs runs mach faster and you will notice increasing performance boost.
    I have upgraded my old P500 with SSD and Im happy with it.
    More info about SSDs you can find on http://storage.toshiba.eu/cms/en/index.html but of course it must not be Toshiba SSD. You can check other manufacturers too, compare the prices and choose the best one.

    Hi
    First of all I would recommend checking the HDD for errors HDD malfunction might affect the computer performance you should check the HDD using the freeware toolsone of the tools which I use is the Drive Fitness Test it was posted several times here in the forum and its really great software.
    If the HDD would be ok and if no error would be detected, then I would recommend disabling some processes which are not important for you in many cases different tools would be loaded during the OS boot procedure and such tools run in the background which slow down the OS.
    Start msconfig and check the Startup Tab
    Here you will see all the software which is loaded at the beginning you can uncheck not necessary tools
    Note: if you are not sure what the single process means, use google and search in internet for more details otherwise dont disable this.

  • Qosmio F60 - No additional touchpad and Fn function after Win 8 upgrade

    I recently installed Windows 8 on my Qosmio F60 and now I have some issues, I think it might be driver related but not sure which drivers in particular.
    1. The touchpad still works for moving the pointer but swiping along the right edge doesn't scroll anymore, I have had a look on the drivers webpage but cant find which driver I need it install to make this work. Also does anyone know if there is a Windows 8 driver so that i can swipe the edge to bring up the charms and switch tabs?
    2. The FN keys no longer work so i can't control the brightness or the other functions along the top row of the keyboard.
    If anyone can help with either of these issues that would be great.
    Thanks,
    Phillip

    Hi
    As you can see there are no special Win 8 drivers fro the Qosmio F60 series.
    Its not Win 8 supported.
    However, I think you should be able to use the Win 8 upgrade drivers released for Qosmio F750.
    Try it.
    Recommend installing the touchpad driver (from Synaptics), the Toshiba Function Key Utility, Value Added Package and Toshiba System Driver

  • Re: Qosmio F60/05M - PXE-E61 media test failure and harddisk failure

    Hi
    My problem is the computer freezes often and has issues with windows explorer. Also it will freeze when in games. I don't know if the issues are related but after freezing when it starts to reboot it will come up with a black screen reading;
    PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
    When I press anything it just comes up with the same message. If I turn the notebook off by the power button and give it some time before turning it on it gives me the option to start windows in safemode or normal if I choose safemode it doesn't start. Also when I run the toshiba PC diagnostic tool the harddisk fails the test. It doesn't give me any explanation.
    This problem has occurred a number of times over the last couple of weeks.
    The model is:
    Qosmio F60/05M PQF65A-05M02W
    Any help would be much appreciated
    Thanks
    Mick

    Hi mick,
    > Also when I run the toshiba PC diagnostic tool the harddisk fails the test.
    This would be also my personal opinion that something is wrong with HDD itself I mean if the computer try to boot it access the internal HDD and start Windows but if the computer cant find the internal HDD it tries to boot from LAN
    I think you should contact an authorized service provider in your country. The guys should check your HDD and replace it if it necessary.
    Furthermore backup all your data if you didnt do this as yet. Therefore you can use an external USB HDD.

  • Qosmio F60 and Win7 x64 Drivers

    Hi, i just purchased a Qosmio F60:- PQF65A-016002 and did a clean install of windows 7 Pro x64.
    But i am now unable to find any drivers for it. i have looked in the toshiba support but it brings up no drivers for my machine.
    If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great.
    Thanks
    Alastair

    Hello Alastair
    Why you have done this stupid mistake as hundreds of other notebook owners?
    It is logic to check support at first and be sure certain operating system is fully supported and then installed own OS. Isnt it?
    Qosmio F60 is newest notebook and even not available worldwide so you must be careful with support for it. The drivers will be offered soon or later but it can take some time.
    What to do now?
    Either go back to factory settings or try to use some drivers for other Qosmio models with similar hardware configuration. Try with X500. It is definitely supported for Win7 x64. Maybe Toshiba tools and utilities can be installed on your F60.
    Play a little bit with it. Nothing can goes wrong now.
