Qosmio G30-175-BlueTooth activation and Connection

I have a Quosmio G30 and a Nokia 2760 mobile phone, which I wish to connect via Bluetooth.
Nokia PC Suite 7.0.7.0 only shows Bluetooth Microsoft not Toshiba, and also tells me that parts etc are missing.
I cannot find anyway of initialsing bluetooth on the laptop.
What am I doing wrong please?

Read the following website how to activate your Bluetooth:

If you use Windows XP I would recommend to try the following:
Download the Nokia Data Suite Version v4.88

Qosmio G30-175: DVD-RAM Drive thinks its a CD drive

Hello people, me again.
My 2 week old Qosmio G30 - 175 has a DVD-RAM drive that now appears in My Computer as a CD-Drive. Consequently (I think) it won't auto play DVD's. I can play them manually through Media Centre or WMP but no option appears in the drive's properties for auto playing DVD's.
Can anybody tell me why this has happened? It used to show up as a DVD-RAM drive. The only thing I have done is to install Nero Premium. Would that have anything to do with it?
Many thanks.

Joao, I have tried uninstalling the drive and letting Windows re-detect it but still the problem persists. Thanks anyway for the suggestion.
Gipsyman, I will investigate further what other burning software is installed and remove it and see if it helps. Thanks.
Sorry about the delay but I have been working away all week.
BTW the drive won't autoplay CD's now either. Whenever I put a CD or DVD into the drive Windows brings up the normal Explorer window and just displays the contents as folders. Right-clicking and selecting Autoplay I get the options for CD choice only (ie play with Media Centre etc.) but the "always perform this action" check box is greyed out!
I have been in touch with Toshiba support and they are still looking into it.
My system clock loses time too, whether or not it is connected to a time server. :-( Thanks...

Searched for driver updates - do I need them all? Qosmio G30-175

Hello people, new Toshiba user here.
Last week I bought a Qosmio G30-175. After a Bluetooth installation problem everything is fine.
I updated BIOS today to v1.70 (even though the Windows version wouldn't work)!
I thought I would do a search for any driver updates and I find that 86 updates appear!!!
Could somebody tell me whether all these updates are merely available for use, or does my particular laptop require all these updates?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
What?? 86 drivers??
Are you sure? I have checked the Toshiba driver page of Qosmio G30-175 (PQG30E) and found only 50 drivers for Windows XP MCE.
But the list of 50 drivers contains double entries! For example there are 2 BIOS, 2 LAN drivers, different modem drivers, etc listed.
You should install only the drivers and utilities which are listening in the Installation instruction document. This guide line is important and you should follow this guide line if you install the Toshiba drivers manually.
You will find the document also in the driver section

Qosmio G30-175 - Where to find RAID driver for Windows 7?

I have a Toshiba Qosmio G30-175 and I need a raid-driver so I can install Windows 7. My operating system is XP and on Toshiba-homepage I can't find the driver.
Can enyboby help, please?
Kenneth

I have the Qosmio G35 AV600 and just successfully upgraded straight from XP to Win7 Ultimate (32-bit).
I was having problems finding the drivers as well - as Win7 wasn't recognizing the hard-drives.
I did have a copy of the Vista Upgrade Assistant disk from Toshiba. This helped in removing all of the XP drivers, then was great after installing Win7. Virtually all of the drivers appear to be working fine in Win7 - despite being designed for Vista. The only driver I did upload directly from the manufacturer was the Nvidia drivers - which work for all operating systems up to Win7.
If you don't have the memory stick (or have the Upgrade disk), you can do what I did: When it asks you to locate which hard drive you want to put it on, click on browse for driver, remove the win7 install disk, and insert the upgrade disk. You can find it in the following directory on the disk:
Download\vistaup\auto\RAIDDrv
It will find it, download the driver, find the hard drives on your PC. Then, reinsert the Win7 media and install.
You should have no problems after this point.
I noticed that they do have a download on the website for Win7 assitance that you may want to try as well - I'm sure it has the same drivers that you would need.

Bluetooth paired and connected, but not showing up in device list

I have a iphone 4s and a plantronics discovery 975. It was working fine, I don't recall doing any updates... But now, it's showing paired and connected, but when I make a call, it's not connecting and doesn't sho up in the the device options - only shows speaker. I already did the 'forget device' and re-paired it and it still won't work. If I press the call button twice on the bluetooth, it'll call the last number dialed, so I know there's some connection... I'm lost... Any help would be appreciated!

Oh! And here's another weird thing. My nephew was visiting yesterday, helping me move furniture and he asked could he get on my wifi. I opened the network lock and put the password in his phone myself and it never gave me a notification that he had connected. Later, my dad came over and when his phone connected to my wifi, it let me know that he had connected. Wonder what's different about these 3 devices (blu-ray, 2 iphones). None were listed in the network map before I allowed them to connect yesterday.

Qosmio G30 - fan was whirring and struggling

Yesterday when I got home I started up my Qosmio G30 and I think the fan was whirring and struggling to be honest, although I've only come to realise that afrer doing some reading this morning. Anyway I used the PC for about an hour and then left it running with 1 application running whilst I went out.
Upon returning a few hours later, the laptop hadn't shut it self down, but there were two generic boxes that had popped up stating to shut the laptop down and return it for a service.
By the sounds of it the fan had stopped working altogether and the computer was deadly quiet. I restarted it, and again the fan wasn't working at all and although the laptop loaded into windows, I immediately shut it down again.
I'm worried that the laptop hasn't shut itself down when the fan has failed, and if it hasn't done this, has any damage likely to have been caused, even though it did load back into windows?

Hi,

Just to remove 1 of ur 2 ram module and check if the problem is resolved. If yes ,just to buy a new RAM module like a KINGSTON,just the best....other jobber module is not reliable!

Qosmio G30: blue vertical lines and blue screen crash dump

I have a Qosmio G30, Model No. PQG32C-AV605E with BIOS Version 3.40.
I want to update to 3.90 but I cannot enter Windows.
How do I update BIOS with no Windows available?
Is there a DOS utility?
If so, please send it and I will download it or send me an email on where to download.
The G30 I have has blue vertical lines across the screen when the machine starts up in VGA mode upon entering Windows for the first time.
But the machine can't enter windows, it crashes and dumps and restarts before that.
I replaced the RAM with new RAM but it had no effect.
I ran the diagnostics utility and the hard drives are OPTIMAL in RAID 1 so no errors there.
The reinstall of Windows went smoothly: I just can't get into VGA mode without lines.
I was told by Toshiba tech support that a BIOS upgrade would fix it.
Thanks for any helps.

I made best experience with Toshiba support. The ASP guys were always helpful
I can understand that you are upset but this is cannot be a explanation for you last replay
Fact is that you can update the BIOS ONLY running windows OS because you can download ONLY win-based BIOS!
If you are not able to do this (no matter why) then you will need to get in contact with local ASP (service provider) in your country who could update the BIOS using a traditional BIOS version.
But in my personal opinion the vertical lines are not related to any BIOS issue and I think a BIOS update would not help you in my opinion its more hardware issue as an software issue.
Therefore you should get in contact with an local ASP in order to discover what's part is affected.
Good luck

Qosmio G30-175 virus and need to recover

My husband unfortunately downloaded a virus Smart Engine and now my laptop is not working.
I can sometimes get onto the internet and Word for instance but sometimes takes several attempts.
Slowly got worse over the last few days even though I thought I'd removed the virus.
Can't back up any data because it's saying components can't be read etc.
I'm wondering if I use the recovery disc will I lose all my other data, i.e. photographs and documents?
Any help would be appreciated

> I'm wondering if I use the recovery disc will I lose all my other data, i.e. photographs and documents?
Unfortunately, yes. The recovery would format the whole HDD and would erase the partitions too.
I recommend booting from Live CD like WinPE or BartPE. (use google)
These are booting CDs. This helps to boot the notebook with Windows OS environment which helps you to access the data on the HDD.
Then you can backup the important data and then could use recovery disk in order to reinstall the OS again.

Qosmio G30 - external screen via HDMI connection - bad resolution

Hi! This problem is driving me crazy, please help if you can...
I have just bought a G30-102 and I'm trying to use it with an external screen via the HDMI connection. The problem I'm having is that the native resolution of 1920x1200 cuts off the edges of the desktop and the quality looks terrible - its almost like the whole screen is zoomed in. I tried this with a BenQ FP241wz at first (which is 1080i 1920x1200) and the Toshiba helpline couldn't find a solution either - even after painfully reinstalling all of the drivers etc.
Its been going on for so long, I thought that I would try it out with my HDTV instead, just to be sure it wasn't a monitor issue. So I tried it with my Toshiba 32WLT66 - and have just found that it has exactly the same problem.
All of the display settings appear to be correct and the G30 is convinced that the output is correct, so the question I have now is - do you think that its a problem with my HDMI port?
Please help, I'm a designer and it is essential that I use the machine on a large screen. If this is a problem with the G30 hardware I need to talk to Toshiba immediately about replacing or fixing it.

Hi - thanks for the reply!
My BIOS doesn't allow me to choose much for the display - just between PAL and NTSC really.`As for the document, thanks for the link - unfortunately though there wasn't anything in it that I haven't already tried.
What would be the most obvious thing that could be wrong? Faulty port? Faulty card? Or could it even be as simple as a faulty HDMI lead?

Wireless active and connected before login

Hi,
I have been trying to get wireless connected before I login into my Mac in order to be autheticated by Active Directory.
As the MAC didn't come with an integrated LAN port i am only able to use the wireless connection.
Thank you

I'm trying to figure this out as well. I may have another step in the solution for you.
In the network preference pane of system preferences click on Airport on the left.
Click Advanced...
Click on 802.1x at the top.
Click the plus sign and then click Add Login Window Profile.
This should allow you to create a 802.1x profile that will pre-authenticate with your Directory Service. (I'm working with Active Directory) I have left the username and password blank in the profile so that the user will be the one authenticating.
My problem now is that it seems to pre-authenticate 802.1x for me but it says that the server's certificate is invalid. If I set 802.1x up for an individual user I can 'Always Trust' the certificate but I don't know how to do it at login.
I'm testing this on a MacBook running 10.5.6

Need help with upgrade from WXP MCE to Vista Ultimate on Qosmio G30 - 175

Hi all, I tried searching for the following issue to no avail so I would be most grateful if someone could help and point me in the right direction:
Tried to upgrade the XP to Ultimate and it got to unpacking stage and BSOD "Session3_initialization_failed (xxx STOP: 0x0000006F (0xC000009D, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) appeared repeatedly. I tried again and the same happened.
I have already updated the BIOS and stripped the conflicts out of the Toshiba suite of programmes and the update advisor gave the OK on several ocassions before attempting this exercise.
Help.........Dave

Forgot to mention too that I am currently running with 2 x 2GB Ram and no additional hardware or software has been added prior to attempting the upgrade. The medium I am using to upgrade is a recently purchased full retail version of 32 bit Vista Ultimate (which also includes a 64 bit version too in the box).
I have been in touch with Microsoft Support in recent days and they told me that my hard drive appears to be defective being the reason for the failed upgrade. Infact last week together with Microsoft on the phone we did attempt a clean install but that just lead to me having to abort the clean install and rescue my laptop back to original XP MCE.....flipping heck!!!!!

Qosmio G30-126: how to connect analog TV and satellite TV simultaneously

Hi, I have a Qosmio G30-126 and have a problem with simultaneous receiving analog TV (by TV-in port in built-in TV tuner) and satellite channels from satellite set-top-box (by AV-in ports).
I can programm Windows Media Center for analog TV (but without satellite STB) by antenna TV-in port and it works perfectly.
I can programm Windows Media Center for digital channels from satellite STB (but without analog TV) by AV-in ports and it works perfectly.
But i can't program Windows Media Center for both analog TV i satellite STB, because during programming WMC forces me to choose between analog TV or satellite decoder and doesn't allow me to choose two signal sources.
For me it is a big problem, because I have cable TV (analog) and satellite STB with digital channels. And I want to watch on my Qosmio all channels.
Could anyone help me?

>... because during programming WMC forces me to choose between analog TV or satellite decoder and doesn't allow me to choose two signal sources.
I think in this statement you answered your question. I had Qosmio G30 long time ago and i also know that WMC cannot handle with two signal sources at the same time.
To confirm this contact Microsoft and ask them. I mean they have designed WMC and know how it works exactly.
Toshiba has just offered proper hardware (TV tuner) to offer TV option on this notebook.

Should my iPhone 1 (iOS 3.1.3) with Bluetooth 2.0 (Handset HSP?) work with wireless earbuds with BT 4.0 and the Headset (and Handsfree, A2DP, AVRCP) protocol? They pair and connect; status bar looks good. But audio always comes out the speaker. Thx.

Should my iPhone 1 (iOS 3.1.3) with Bluetooth 2.0 (Handset HSP?) work with wireless earbuds with BT 4.0 and the Headset (and Handsfree, A2DP, AVRCP) protocol? They pair and connect as expected (with a PIN); status bar looks good and shows Bluetooth active, and I even see the iPhone displays the battery levels of the wireless earbuds. But audio always comes out the speaker. (If I plug in wired headphones into the headphone jack then audio comes into the wired headphones, as expected.) I have rebooted the iPhone; I have had it forget about the wireless earbuds, and repaired and reconnected; I have reset all network settings. Thx in advance.
PS: I understand that more recent versions of iOS have a way to choose where audio output goes (speaker, headphone jack, Bluetooth device). Does this older version of iOS? I could not find an option or setting.

I've noticed this lately as well, with my iPhone 4. I couldn't confidently pin it directly on any particular iOS update, but my iPhone used to automatically connect up via Bluetooth with my Prius's handsfree feature, and now it doesn't. I work with a CE-based device at my job, with Bluetooth capability, and I used to test out that feature by having it discover my iPhone. This no longer works either.
What I have found (not really a solution, but it does work and may be a clue for Apple) is that if I simply go to the Settings app then the General -> Bluetooth screen and let it sit there, it will pair right up with my car within a few seconds. Bluetooth is always on, and always says "Now Discoverable" at the bottom of the settings screen.
