Qosmio F750 - Cannot get some functions to work after Win 8 uprgade

I own a Qosmio F750-125, PQF75E.
Since I upgraded to Win 8, utilizing Toshiba Upgrade Assistant I might add, I had some issues.
Most importantly not being able to get my Toshiba Blu-ray player to install.
Eventually I managed, still don't exactly how but anyway, to install the latest version 1.0.0.5.70A.
The problem now is that the 3D function still don't seem to work.
When I open a 3D movie I only get the picture to display side by side, despite clicking on the 3D button.
I tried to update the Nvidia driver (v290) to the latest version v314, available on Nvidia site, for for my GeForce GT540M graphics card but every time I get a message that the driver cannot find compatible driver hardware. Eventually from within the upgrade files downloaded by Toshiba Upgrade Assistant I managed to install the v306. I am still however unable to install v 314, after the "system check" I still get the message that the driver can find compatible driver hardware.
However, the 3D still does not work. I notice that the face detection (SuperD Xtune) does not automatically start with the Blu-ray player when I launch or open a 3D file to be played by the Toshiba Blu-ray player, as it used to.
How can I get my Blu-ray Player to play my 3D properly again.
If I open Xtune I am able to calibrate the 3D and then it closes.
I do not see a app under all apps which seem to have anything to do with the face detection function.
Is there a setting that need to be changed, an additional driver to be installed or what?
I am really disappointed with the support I have received from Toshiba themselves on this issue.
I also wanted to update the BIOS of my laptop.
My bios version is 2 dating December 2011 but I notice that a newer BIOS is available from Toshiba Website dating February 2012, if I am not mistaken.
I downloaded that but when I run it I receive a message that my computer is not compatible.
**bleep** this is frustrating.
I want to get my 3D function back and be sure to run the latest and most appropriate drivers, at all times.

Dear Tonny
Thank you for patiently answering to my posts.
You are right, despite extensive notes in the Toshiba Step-by-Step upgrade guide and specific mention that the Blu-ray player can only be installed by using the Upgrade Assistant, it is not installed by the Toshiba Upgrade Assistant.
I am not sure though whether it actually did form part of the downloaded files but never the less I installed it by some miracle manually.
It did not want to install at first. I received a message that the player could not be found. I noticed that the player is a sMedio Inc player and I then searched sMedio Inc and download their WinDVD Pro player. After that the Blu-ray driver from Toshiba installed.
I also have it that v1.0.0.5.70A is the latest driver but through my local Toshiba Agent (MUSTEK) I received a driver from Germany and it was 1.0.0.5.48. I have not installed that as yet.
I am convinced that the problem lies with the interaction between the Blu-ray Player, Nvidia driver and SuperD software.
I searched my installed files and saw that I have Super D spd2900g and Super D X-tune installed. I uninstalled both and tried to re-install it form the file included in the Toshiba Upgrade Assistant (Super D IC Driver).
However only the Super D spd2900g part installed and the Super D X-tune part is now missing.
NOW I am completely BUGGERED because I do not know where to find the X-tune program to reinstall it.
SuperD's website is very basic, in fact somewhat primitive.
Thanks you also for the links, I have seen them somewhere and have had regard thereto but they are outdated.
They relate to much older versions and windows 7 not 8.
I must be honest, the poor response and support from Toshiba will most definitely lead to me not buying their product again. None of the so called technicians have help me achieve anything. I struggled and figured out everything myself so far.
I still also have no answer in respect of the BIOS upgrade issue. Is there no one I can contact directly.

  • OBIEE 11.1.1.5 Admin Tool - Cannot get ISCHILD function to work

    Hi,
    1) I have imported an Essbase cube into my RPD file and replicated it in the business model
    2) I have created a new LTS for the 'Accounts' table called 'Income_Statement_Filter' within the business model
    3) I am trying to create a filter on this LTS using the expression builder so that only the children of a particular member are included.
    I am facing the following problems:
    1) I cannot see the ISCHILD function anywhere in the left pane to pull it in
    2) I cannot navigate to the 'Account' dimension anyhere in the left pane to pull it in
    3) When I try to enter the expression manually in the WHERE section of the LTS window, following the online help instructions (wondering at this point the usefulness of the expression builder for this purpose), I get the following error:
    Expression entered in WHERE section: ischild("unixserver.ft.cname.com"."ebappname".."Cmr"."Account", 'SM00008')
    Error Received: [nQSError: 27009] Unresolved identifier: "unixserver.ft.cname.com"."ebappname".."Cmr"."Account".
    Can anyone please help me with this?

    ISCHILD function is not available in the RPD on the left pane of the FX window. I am not sure if these functions will be available in the future releases of the client tool, but atleast until .5 they are not available to select from the RPD. Coming to the second point, you cannot use ISCHILD function with any random column from the RPD. The ISCHILD function can only be used with the member key column that was used during the process of building the parent-child hierarchy. As you probably already know, this function is used to find out the number of children below the member that you are looking for, which is why only member key column can be used in the formulae.

  • Cannot get USB port to work after re-installing of SP2 on Satellite Pro L20

    After re-installing XP Home SP2 and downloading all the updates & Drivers from here I cannot get my USB port to work properly, if I have more than one peripheral plugged in it says "Bandwidth Exceeded".
    I have a Behringer BCD2000 which is a souncard/midi controler for DJ mixing, it worked fine before i reinstalled windows, now it clicks and pops when playing tunes, also the ASIO doesn't work when I run Traktor (Dj software) and the program freezes. Any other external sound card wont work either. I've been all through the device manager no conflicts apart from an ! over Serial under hidden devices.
    I'm lost, is my only option buying a PCMCIA sound card, it worked fine before so surely there is a software solution to this?
    If anyone can help I'd be most appreciative.

    Hello
    Try to disable USB Error Detection:
    1. Right-click My Computer and then click Properties.
    2. Select Device Manager to view the Device Manager
    3. Locate and click the Universal Serial Bus Controller entry.
    4. Double-click Universal Host Controller and then click the Advanced tab of the Universal Host Controller Properties.
    5. Put a checkmark in the box for Disable USB Error Detection. Click OK.
    6. Restart the computer to see if "Bandwidth Exceeded" message occurs again
    Did you use recovery media to reinstall WXP? When someone write it worked before and now not it is really not easy to say why this happen. Try to configure notebook as before and maybe it will work again. Behringer BCD2000 is not known to me and I dont know how it works and which software must be preinstalled there.
    Can you use different USB devices like external HDD, USB mouse, USB memory stick or printer?

  • Cannot get to dual-boot screen after Win 8.1 upgrade

    Hello,
    I have an iMac with Mavericks. Recently installed Win 8 to dual-boot. Instrux then were to hold OPT button during startup to be presented with options for OS with which to boot.
    Since Win 8.1 upgrade there is no way to get to that prompt. MS/Win help topics not useful (unsurprisingly). I have the original install disk but would far prefer to save my current config of Mav. Thoughts for workaround?
    Cheers,
    Michael C

    holding down option key at bootup not giving you the bootmenu have nothing to do with win8.1
    even if one never installed anything in terms bootcamp at all then holding down the option key should give the option between osx and the restore to last clean osx version
    if you don't get the option then I'd say the cause is not windows as the menu is handled by the bootloader which is before windows takes over

  • Can't get some websites to work after snow leopard install, java maybe?

    I'm a day trader. I use TD Ameritrade every day to work on. I believe the real time streamer and level 2 quotes are all java based.
    This past weekend I did the Snow Leopard install on my computer. Until this morning it seemed like all was well.
    I go to ameritrade and try to log in and it keeps saying it doesn't recognize my log in. I called them and they are able to log into my account so its my computer. I went to the java preferences and there use to be a lot of java types there now there are just 2, could that some how be it?
    Any suggestions?

    Safari is a 64 bit application, is it worth starting the app in 32 bit mode and testing if it is any better.
    use finder and highlight Safari in the applications directory, do a get Info (cmd i) and tick the 32 bit mode box and restart Safari.
    If it does not help remember to revert back to 64 bit mode.

  • Cannot get Equium L40-10X working after malware attack

    Hi, I'm new here.
    Only have the Equium Laptop 1 week and it is infected with MalWare. Norton Internet Security was activated and current, but alas the worms won. It displays the message "Windows Explorer has stopped working" during boot attempts. Strangely enough though the registration message of AntiVirGear v3.7 works perfectly.
    I've tried to format the C: partition, run all Safe Mode options, Install Win Vista and XP, Recovery CD install, BIOS tweaks, Windows repair and of course my old friend MSDOS.
    I removed the 120gb hard drive (3 partitions) and tried to pop it into my trusty modular bay so I could do as I wished as another drive, not bootable to harvest my files from the E: partition, then format the thing. But the pins are different though the drives are the same size. So basically I'm stuck with a deadish PC no fault of Toshiba, MS or anybody..
    Except the programming miscreants of AntiVirGear v3.7 who will gladly release my yoke from it's chains provided I give them my credit card information (if they didn't already snatch that). If I do that it will be the beginning of "just one more purchase" and that will surely end my misery... So if anybody here can help I have the hammer and screwdriver ready.
    I've been to Norton Support and they told me to try the things I already tried. And then they gave up, "contact MS". MS doesn't support OEM versions, so here I am.
    Please have a think about this.
    Thanks for listening.

    Hi buddy,
    man, this sounds REALLY...REALLY strange.
    So, for better understanding:
    You have malware on your system (C: drive), you want a working system? Right? But you want firstly secure some of your data?
    Ok, it would be better to grab your hdd, go to the next electronic market and then buy a USB-HDD case. But first check if the pins fit (that was the suggestion to take your drive to the market to check THIS out).
    Connect the USB-HDD to your another system, copy your files and then delete the WHOLE drive. The best would be to try this CD to format and repartition your drive:
    www.ubcd4win.com
    Then after completely removing all partitions, you can drive your recovery and get a working system back.

  • Please help, I cannot get play menu to work after using dynamic link.

    Ok. So I sent a video from premiere pro to encore using dynamic link. Then I created a menu in encore and dragged video to play button I created for the dvd. However, when I burn the dvd, the menu is not a part of the DVD. I do not know why this happens when I use a dynamic linked video. It does not happen when I use other videos. Please help. Thanks Matt

    You need to set the menu to be first play.
    If you create a timeline before you add a menu, the timeline becomes first play. If you set the end action of the timeline to the menu, it will eventually get there, but that does not appear to be what you want.

  • I cannot get GPS Only to work on my ipad3 (4g version, but not on an active cell plan, and wifi off).  Is there some new requirement in 7.1 or 7.1.1 to have cell and/or wifi enabled for GPS to work? I am testing with MotionX

    It seems like I cannot get GPS only to work on my ipad3 (4g version, but not on an active cell plan, and wifi off).  Is there some new requirement in 7.1 or 7.1.1 to have cell and/or wifi enabled for GPS to work? I am testing with MotionX, garmin blueChart mobile, and a GPS monitoring tool. All show no signal. If I turn on cell and wifi,  it says I get gps signal, but can't tell if that is from the GPS chip, or just from cell and wifi only (maybe with some gps mixed in)?  Any ideas on how to get iPad working with GPS only??

  • Cannot Get Animated Buttons to Work in DPS (InDesign 6.0) Help Please!!

    In DPS tips, using the iPad app, some of the navigational buttons appear like SWF buttons, but, I cannot get SWF buttons to work in DPS. I have been trying with Multi-States, but, cannot get that to work either. Can you tell me how to get a SWF like button to work in DPS - I'm working with ID 6.0.
    Do you have an eaasy answer? Is there a tutorial out there I can view? Is their a step-by-step I can read?
    BTW, I do understand how buttons work and the types of events that work in DPS.
    Thank you
    Lain Kennedy

    Hi Uwe,
    First, let me say "I cannot even believe all the wonderful information I have recieved from my original post," and, I want to thank you for your understanding.
    I have been a designer for many years, working before the computer, and, since the mid 80's working with a variety of software to produce both print and web projects. I must say, I am biased on the Adobe Creative Suite, and, have had amazing success with these tools.
    Nonetheless, I have been working with DPS for about a month now (and a month does not make a career), and, have to admit, I am looking at DSP as a Hybrid between Print and Web. Yet, it is neither print or wed, it is it's own element, and, I'm just having growing pains learning, especially the terminology.
    Yes, I am trying to explain SWF Buttons, when in reality, it is DPS Buttons, and, my thinking is based on print and web. Now, it is - in some ways - like going back to school learning DPS and DSP terminology. It is a bit frustrating, but, I know I will get it.
    Now that I have looked at my first MSO test, I followed the instructions in DPS Tips, I realize that the Button is in the "Normal State" as I (interact, this is my terminology) touch or hover to make the button work. It is in the "Click" state that the Button triggers the MSO to work, and, I finally get that now - okay, I'm slow to learn. And, I will be building a complex MSO to prove the point to myself.
    I was wondering, besides DPS Tips, are there any books, apps, specific sites that are very specific on "ALL" the things one can do with DSP? 
    Again, thank you and, all the folks who have taken their time to respond to my post. All the information is truly appreciated.
    Sincerely,
    Lain Kennedy

  • Equium A200-196: Cannot get all speakers to work with Creative T7900 home cinema system

    I run windows Vista home premium, on my Toshiba Equium A200-196, and i have a 7.1 Creative T7900 system.
    I cannot get all speakers to work. Only the woofer and two front speakers are currently playing sound.
    The sound option in the control panel doesn't give me any options besides stereo speakers.
    I have no option of selecting 5.1 or 7.1 speakers and i need to know do i need a software driver (all drivers are showing up as up-to-date), or do i have to change some other option, or purchase an external sound card?
    I only have two jack inputs, a mic in and headphone out. How can i get all speakers to work and achieve the home cinema experience?

    Hi there,
    I dont think that the sound card is capable to do 5.1/7.1 since there are many more jacks required then only one "sound-output".
    If I were you I would purchase a external USB-soundcard which is capable to do 5.1 or 7.1 to deliver you the full home-cinema experience.
    Another solution is not existent. Sorry mate.

  • I cannot get Copy & Paste to work in iOS 5

    I cannot get Copy & Paste to work on my iPhone or my iPad since updating to iOS 5.1
    I can copy and paste within an app, buy copying from one app, then going into another, Paste is not available.
    Anyone one else having this isuue? I have tried rebooting both devices but no change.

    I just checked this out by opening a doc in PlainText and copying some sameple text that I typed.  I hit enter a couple of times, pressed on the screen, the paste button appeared and I was able to paste no problem.
    I then opened a fresh document in Pages and pressed on the screen to open the paset button and got the text to paste into the Pages doc with no problem.
    You may have a glitch in your iOS 5.1 update.  You might try doing a reset all settings reset and set the phone as a new one (You should not lose any data, or media)  You will need to go in and reset any changes you may have made in settings as this set all of them back to factory defaults but your music, pictures, data, email accounts etc. will not be erased.
    If this doesn't work you may need to reinstall the iOS again.I think you can do this through iTunes but am not 100% sure.  You may need to take it to your local genius bar (Hope you have one close to your house) and ask them to reinstall the OS for you.
