Qosmio G30-102 - Can I install Kingston DDR2-667 RAM insted DDR2-533 RAM?

Hi
I've got a Qosmio G30 102 and I wanted to upgrade my RAM to a total of 4GB (currently I've got 2GB installed with specifications of PC2-4300 DDR2 (533MHz)) . So I've been searching for RAM and I wanted to know would it be possible for me to install.
*Kingston Technology - 2GB PC2 5300 DDR2 667MHz 200pin Memory SODIMM*. Would this work correctly and if so would it be better than getting a (*1GB) Memory PC2-4300 DDR2 (533MHz)* i.e. the standard RAM installed on my Qosmio???
Thanks in advance for th answers
Mo

Hi!
For upgrading RAM on my notebook I have used Kingston DDR2-667 and it works without any problems! :)
So you can use this Kingston module too but I assume that it will only run on 533 MHz speed due the FSB limitation of the CPU. The FSB speed you can check with a hardware information tool like Everest or PC Wizard 2008 for example.
As far as I know the notebook can be upgraded to 4GB maximum RAM.
Bye

Qosmio G30-102 - Can I use it as HD screen for my PS3?

Hi
I've got a Qosmio G30-102 and I wanted to know would it be possible to connect up my Playstation 3 via *HDMI*??? At the moment I can only use the AV cables which is really fustrating. If i can use the laptop as the screen for my PS3 using the HDMI cable please inform me in how to do this since I have tried all methods that i can think of.
Thanks
Mo

Hi!
There is no software available for this because its a hardware limitation and this cant be solved with a software.
You have to understand that your notebook is equipped with a HDMI *output* port and not with an input port!! ;)
What you can do with a HDMI port? You can connect your notebook to LCD screen via this port. You will have a better picture quality as with other connection possibilites like S-Video for example.
For example I use the HDMI port of my notebook to watch movies on my LCD screen with HD quality or I watch my photos.

Qosmio G30: How can I install only Ulead Dvd movie factory from Recovery image

Hi everybody
I have question about Ulead dvd movie factory.
First, I bought my G30 with XP when it was the moment of the offer "vista for a few euros".
So, I installed Vista with the official CD from Toshiba. But there was no longer Ulead Dvd movie Factory. As the XP's restoration CD is only an image disk, I can't install from it.
Has anybody a solution for me?
Thank's.
BR.

I think there is a solution!
I found the Ulead DVD Movie Factory utility on the Toshiba page.
I searched in the Qosmio G30 area but without to be successful.
But I checked other sections and selected Satellite Satellite A series Satellite A200 (PSAEC) Vista and found the Ulead DVD Movie Factory 5.51.0147.03 version
Download it a try to install this tool.
Should works!

Qosmio G30-102: Why is Picture Enhancement Utility not installed?

Hi-
I have recently purchased a Qosmio G30-102 with nVIDIA GeForce Go 7600. In chapter 6 of the user manual it refers to the Picture Enhancement Utility as part of the QosmioEngine facility. This does not seem to have come pre-installed on the notebook. How do I obtain this program and why is it not already on there?
Thanks
Mark

Are you 100% sure that this application is missing on you notebook???
I ask it because usually the TOSHIBA Picture Enhancement Utility V3.8.0.0 should be installed
The QosmioEngine is active when using the Qosmio Player TV or the Qosmio Player DVD. Furthermore the Toshiba picture Enhancement Utility is available on the nVidia Go7300 models.
If you have nVidia Go7300 graphic card you could check the Windows, Applications tabs in the nVidia desktop Manger

Qosmio G30-102 Optical SPDIF out not working

I have bought new Qosmio G30-102 and I am quite sure that SPDIF Optical Out connector is not working.
I can't test it at the moment, but I had a couple of SPDIF sound cards and every one of them had a red light on all the time, which signalized that Optical SPDIF is supported.

Hi,
maybe I would first try a SPDIF device, if I were you, because I agree with the user before, it has definetively a SPDIF out.

Can I install one 8 GB ram in a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011).

Can I install one 8 GB ram in a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011). The other slot is not working, I have only one slot that works. It is stated in this link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1270#link1 , that the maximum memory is 8 GB where every slot slot has 4 Gb. Is there any problem if i install only one 8 Gb ram in the working slot ?

You should be able to do that.
Maximum Memory
16 GB (Actual) 8 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
2 - 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
Understand that there is no guarantee it will work, but based on the above it should work for you.

Qosmio G30: How can I manage QosmioPlayer record area?

I have Toshiba Qosmio G30 I want to know; How can I manage the record area in qosmioplayer ?
I have 4GB only bul l want to maxmize it .

Im not 100% sure but I presume its not possible to change (increase) the recording area.
As far as I know the Qosmio player was installed on an additional partition and the recorded files will be stored on this partition.
Possibly you will get a bigger recorded area if you increase the Qosmio Player partition size. But this is only a suggestion.
Greetings

Qosmio G30-204 - Should I install Windows 7 32bit or 64bit?

Hi folks,
I have a Qosmio G30-204. I've upgraded the RAM to 4GB. It has Windows Vista 32bit currently installed.
I'm planning on installing windows 7.
Can I install Windows 7 64bit or would it have to be the 32bit?
What is the difference between 32bit and 64bit anyway?

Hi
If you have upgraded the notebook to 4GB RAM you should install Windows 7 64bit. On all 32bit OS you can only use ~3.2GB due the 32bit limitation.
Thats also the difference between 32bit and 64bit, the supported RAM size. ;)

Qosmio E10-102 - Can't boot from CD/DVD

Hi,
I have a Qosmio E10-102 Notebook here. The Hard Disk is defect and I have to install the operating system on a new hard disk but I cannot boot from CD/DVD. After the Qosmio Boot Screen it displays "Insert system disk in drive. Press any key when ready...".
When I press F1, I get the ACPI BIOS version 1.5 boot menu, but I only can change date, time and the password. The Boot Priority is HDD -> FDD -> CD and I can't change it. The manual says to hold F12 while Booting, but this has no effect. Even pressing the "c" key doesn't boot the Disk.
I tried do put the hard disk in an other Notebook and install there, but the Windows installation disk detects, that this is no Toshiba Laptop.
Any idea how to solve the problem?

If you cannot change it in BIOS settings it must be locked somehow and F12 will not work either. There is no sense to have non working option in BIOS but with F12. When this is locked in BIOS you can change just some basic stuff in BIOS but you will not have access to all other advanced options.
If this option should be disabled than on all levels.
Such locking will be always made in companies to avoid that people who work on notebooks can change anything and also have influence on preinstalled OS.
The whole story is strange to me. Try to contact Toshiba service and ask for help. They can unlock BIOS.

Qosmio G30 (PQG32L) - Can only use 3.25GB memory on Windows 7 64bit

My Qosmio G30 (PQG32L) found 4GB of memory but only 3.25GB usable memory. I upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit but it not help.
BIOS reports 4GB RAM.
OS Windows 7 64 bit
Anyone can enable Qosmio G30 usable memory to 4GB?

Hmm I doubt that Toshiba would update the BIOS on all old models with Chipsets that are limited to 3.2GB, especially considering that only 750MB is lost.
I guess if the laptop supported 8GB max RAM, Toshiba would modify the BIOS to support 64bit OS's.

Qosmio F50: How can I install Vista business

hello!
I recently bought qosmio f50 and it came with vista home edition..
I need to install Vista business.
How can i do that?
Do i need to format?
Then how can i install back all the utilities and drivers that it came with?
Will i have problems with my laptop if i do that?
Message was edited by: xaralas

Hi
The Vista installation is not tricky.
Just put the Vista disk into the ODD and then boot from the disk.
The installation will start automatically.
But this will format your HDD and you will lose your installed Win XP and other files.
> how can i install back all the utilities and drivers that it came with?
I assume youve got a Toshiba recovery disk.
If you want to get back the OS installed by Toshiba then you should use the Toshiba recovery disk for recovering.
PS: what Qosmio F do you have exactly? I ask it because F 108 is not known to me

Qosmio G30-211- Can I record on HD-DVD disc?

Hello!
Can I record on clear HD-DVD-r disc ?

Hello
As far as I know Qosmio G30 is delivered with first generation of HD-DVD drives. That means those drives can read only. Qosmio G40 has HD-DVD that can read and write on empty HD-DVD medias.

Qosmio X505-Q875 - Can't install my work software package

I have to say I'm extremely disappointed in Toshiba. I'm a small business owner and use some pretty advanced software for which I pretty much need a gaming style laptop for. After looking at many different companies, including custom high end builders, I settled on a x505-q875 that I purchased from Newegg.
First of all, I couldn't even install my primary work software package. This software uses a USB hasp for anti-piracy. The HASP wouldn't install, no matter what I did. After exhausting my options, I opted for a clean install of Windows. I have a full Windows 7 license which allows for laptop installation. So I wiped the laptop clean and started with a clean slate. I go onto the Toshiba website to get the component drivers and ...whoa!...they aren't there! Luckily for me, and a couple of hours into the process, I did manage to find a driver for the Nvidia GTS 360m. Fortunately, some guy had posted online a workable driver that supports the 360M. That one could have sunk me. This laptop had to be operational for a business trip I am going on tomorrow.
I hope Toshiba reps at least browse this forum and if so, these are the points I would like to make.
1) If you have released units to resellers of any product, there HAS to be driver support online. I never make backup discs as I've never had to. Every time I ever needed a driver, it was on the support site. There is no excuse for this. This product doesn't have a "release date". As a consumer, when I purchase something, I expect the support to be available when the product hits the shelves.
2) In your "detailed" product specs, how about mentioning who supplied the wi-fi cards? Simply saying "Wi Fi Card" really isn't going to help anyone fishing for a driver. Thankfully, you guys haven't changed and it was still the RealTek wireless card.
3) It is important that Windows be left as vanilla as possible, for people like myself who use these things for business. A lot of business productivity software does not like being installed on OEM modded versions of an operating system. I don't know if it were the mods or the 50 tons of bloatware on the machine but when I can't get a USB device to install, thats a serious issue. As for the bloatware, how about making most of it downloadable content? Most people have no need for most of the stuff you cram into the machine.
So in closing, a disappointing experience so far. I hope the machine is problem free from this point on because I invested 7 hours in diagnosing, searching, pulling my hair out, reinstalling operating systems, etc. Now that the slate is clean, the thing works like a champ with my software.

Qosmio X505-Q875 belongs to Toshiba US series and the drivers should be downloaded from the Toshiba US page.

There you can find everything regarding the Qosmio X505-Q875.
> 2) In your "detailed" product specs, how about mentioning who supplied the wi-fi cards? Simply saying "Wi Fi Card" really isn't going to help anyone fishing for a driver. Thankfully, you guys haven't changed and it was still the RealTek wireless card.
Qosmio X505-Q875 and other notebook series are equipped with different WLan cardsIntel, Atheros or Realtek. At the bottom of the unit you can find a label which contains a info what WLan card has been installed or go to device manger and check VendorID to get details about WLan chip manufacturer. ;)

Dont understand what you want to say and what you mean by bloatware but the point is that new generation notebooks supports a lot of different features which need to be controlled by software
Of course you can remove everything what you want but you should not wonder if some feutures like FN buttons, multimedia buttons, face reorganization, power saving eco mode etc will not functions
If you are not able to install the 3rd USB device then you should get in contact with this USB device manufacture. Maybe there are some Win 7 compatibility issues
I installed Win 7 on my Toshiba notebook and everything is running like a dream all devices are recognized. I have managed to collect the Win 7 drivers at my own hand but this is not really a problem for common notebook user like me who know how to use google and search in internet

Can I install the ddr2 pc5300 memory from my Mac Pro 1,1 in a Mac Pro 3,1 that requires ddr2 pc6400?

I have replaced a Mac Pro 1,1 with a used Mac Pro 3,1. I am trying to canibalize as much as I can. Will the slower RAM from the 1,1 work in the 3,1? Dare I just stick it in and try, or might I cause damage?

I don't quite understand. I do plan to try installing the old ddr2 pc5300 667 from my Mac Pro 1,1 into my Mac Pro 3,1 one pair at a time, just to confirm each pair is in working order and happy in its new home. I have 8x2 GB of RAM I hope to move.
I am uncertain what you have said from there. Yes, the cost would be cheap, free in fact! Is this what you meant? You had suggested buying 667 from Amazon, or similar -- but I don't need. And you have made the point that 8 DIMMs is beneficial--which I will have covered. (great tip)
I think what I am most uncertain about is the comment about what will run cooler. Maybe you mean if I purchased newer memory, the design has become more efficient, so the expense is worth considering?
Thanks in advance!

Qosmio G30: I can not find Linux drivers for Bluetooth and TV Tuner

I have the Qosmio Q30 HD-DVD(PQG32) running on Ubuntu Linux. My Problem is I can not find drivers for Bluetooth and TV Tuner.
Does Toshiba support Linux? If yes when I find it?

TV tunner, forget it there is'nt a Linix driver for it yet.
Bluetooth NO PROBLEM
First turn on your wireless card.
2nd runn the command toshutils -b I think
toshutils is a support program for toshiba laptops.
you also need to have the bluetooth drivers loaded on your machine.
If everything is working correctly a little B bluetooth logo will appear on the top toolbar
