What do you mean "Shutdown automatically"? Did the machine power off instantly? Or did Windows Shut down by itself?
If it shut down instantly, then it could be dust buildup in the heatsink causing it to overheat.
You should test the RAM before reinstalling Windows. You can download the bootable Memtest CD ISO from www.memtest.org

    Hi again
    You should try to start the OS installation with Recovery CD and/or with the Windows XP CD. If this both procedures doesnt work so I assume there is something wrong with the hardware. Maybe a faulty HDD. In this case the best way to solve this issue is to contact the ASP

  • QosmioPlayer needed for Qosmio G30-177

    I've just bought a Qosmio G30-177 from a friend, but it's not a brandnew laptop
    and this is my problem. My Lappy cannot using QosmioPlayer , when my lappy turn off i press one of the 11 AV button but my lappy doesn't start QosmioPlayer , instead of that it go to window Vista. After researching by myseft on this forum , i think that is because i don't have a partition for QosmioPlayer on my lappy and i don't have a Media recovery disc .
    So i write this thread to ask for some advice.
    Because i live in Vietnam so it's not easy for my to order a recovery disc from Toshiba service , so does anyone know how to download an ISO file of that disc?
    thanks

    Hi
    WinRE partition belongs to the Vista OS. Usually the partition is hidden and its needed only for the Vista backup files.
    Vista supports an own reparation option and if something will go wrong with your OS, you could use such option to repair the OS. In such case Vista will use the files which are stored on the WinRE partition.
    _Regarding the Qosmio Player issue;_
    The point is that you will need an original Toshiba Recovery disk if you want to use the Qosmio Player.
    Without recovery disk you will be not able to use this tool.
    On the Toshiba page you can find the Qosmio player. Its in the Win MCE download area.
    This is a ISO image and you can burn it and create a Qosmio Player recovery CD.
    You will have to install firstly the Qosmio player booting from this disk.
    This will install the Qosmio player on the HDD.
    After you have finished the Qosmio player installation you should use the Toshiba recovery to install the Windows operating system.

  • Problems with NVIDIA Geforce Go 7600 display driver for Qosmio G30

    A few days ago my Qosmio G30 ( Windows XP) didnot start properly. First the srceen become white and after a few reboots the screen shows a lot figures and after that I get the a lot of vertical stripes over the screen. I only can start in protected mode of windows but the vertical stripes stay.After consultating the Toshiba help desk I find on the Toshiba website a driver for the Nividia Geforce Go 7600.
    But I cannot installed it because Microsoft Windows XP reported that the software  have no digital signiture. When I ignore that message the installtion goes on but without result. The computer gives the message that the Nvidia 7600 is not installed properly.
    Please have someone a solution of my problem. (Johnnyboy have reported the same problem )

    I sounds like a dying video chip, or at least my p100 had simmilar issues when it needed the video replaced.  Odd characters on the screen at random, plus locking up occasionally.  Mine failed from excessive heat.

  • 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 G30-126: 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.

  • Qosmio G30-116: How to connect the Sky Digital box to watch TV?

    I just recently purchased the Qosmio G30-116 on the understanding that I can connect my Sky digital to the laptop (somehow) and watch and record sky on the laptop
    * note: I am not using freeview or normal TV I am using SKY DIGITAL *
    usint the supplied converter cable to connect to the video-in on the laptop (video in is like a headfone jack and the converter converts from this to female RCA)
    I have plugged it into the laptop then connect a 3 RCA to SCART to it and then into the sky box, when setting up the TV section in Windows Media Centre I follow the instructions until it gets to the point where it scans for a signal, (previous to that I get asked what kind of signal I receive, I select digital but have tried all combinations,) but it doesn't find a signal.
    Now I have been told that Windows Media Centre does not support Analogue input and that the connection between the sky box and the laptop is analogue.
    Is this correct or not? then, while typing this I have been told by someone else that my laptop is not capable of receiveing SKY DIGITAl as it can't decode it or something. Is this also correct? If not, what am I doing wrong and can anyone help me get this going? And have I been going about this the right way or am I totally up the wrong path if laptop is capable of it?

    To start qosmio player
    1.switch off computer using on/off blue lit on/off button to close windows operation.
    2.make sure that the computer/windows is switch off
    3.Now Touch the TV icon (Blue lit button)only or the DVD player ICOn (blue lit button)only. WITHOUT USING THE USUAL ON/OFF SWITCH
    4.The qosmio player/engine will switch on instantly without booting windows.
    5.TV will launch within 8 seconds and the same for DVD player
    6.Pres F1 or F2 for further functions such as screen size,audio,forward.rewind.pause scanning the TV channnels (auto or manual)
    7.You can do the same i.e open the qosmio player/TV with the supplied Toshiba/qosmio remote pressing the Live TV button ONLY for instant TV on or DVD menu ONLY for instant DVD player/CD player on WITHOUT USING THE ON/OFF SWITCH ON THE REMOTE.That is very much similar to a standard TV remote just press the TV or dvd menu .
    8.If you touch the same icon buttons i.e TV and dvd player during the standard computer usage /windows operating system,IT WILL LAUNCH THE MEDIA CENTER BY DEFAULT.that's what happen to you!
    I use the remote from my bed before going to sleep and the same from bed to watch early morning TV news
    Qosmio is excellent for the versatility!
    Enjoy

  • Qosmio G30 freezes upon Norton Internet Security 2008 startup

    Norton Internet Security 2008 will freeze my computer as soon it tries to load and the only way to go on is to restart the system by pressing the on/off-button.
    My notebook is a Toshiba Qosmio G30-177 (Model No. PQG32E-02G022GR) with Vista Ultimate and NIS2007 pre-installed. I have no problems with this NIS2008 version on my other notebook (Qosmio F10 - PQF10E-02300JGR, WinXP MCE).
    NIS2007 runs fine on my G30 and I do not have any problems at all, but newer versions of NIS seem to get in conflict with my system:
    1. I am able to install and run the new version, download all updates and adjust the settings. Maybe one or two days later my computer will freeze after start exactly when the tray icon of NIS appears. For a couple of seconds there is just no response of the system at all and the LED's of my notebook show that all HD activity has stopped. After being idle for these couple of seconds, the cooling fan will start to operate at maximum power, creating a tremendous noise I never experienced before, not even while the CPU was running at 100% for some time due to other programs. Forcing a restart is all I can do.
    2. Now this time, I successfully restarted my notebook again (took some attempts) and it suddenly did not freeze. Then I disabled firewall and auto-protect permanently, so there was no freezing upon startup and I just had to manually activate both firewall and auto-protect after start. In order to prevent freezing again after reboot, I always disabled NIS before shutdown. For the next one or two days this workaround was quite successful.
    3. All of a sudden, after one or two days, this workaround is going to become useless, because the system starts to freeze again at the very moment the tray icon appears. In this case, restarting has no effect at all, and NIS will continue to freeze at startup. I also tried to prevent NIS form starting by no longer allowing ccApp.exe to automatically run upon start (administrative tools > system configuration > "startup" tab). This is successful and my notebook is able to start normally, but if I later try to start NIS manually, it will freeze again.
    I had this problem since NIS2008 was just released, so I thought that meanwhile a Windows or Norton update might have fixed the issue, but this weekend I gave NIS2008 another try without success. I am almost sure that the problem is not caused by any other software than Windows and/or Norton, because I also tried to install NIS after a full system recovery, thus having only pre-installed NIS2007 and Vista on my notebook. I did use the Norton removal tool and followed the deinstall instructions before trying to install the newer version of course.
    My last hope was that the NIS2009beta version somehow would not freeze my system, but it does. It does not matter if I try to run 2008 or 2009beta version, the problem is exactly the same.
    What really drives me almost crazy is the fact that NIS runs perfectly for some time, then needs a rather small workaround, and then after some time totally refuses to work. In these couple of days I did not change any system settings, install or deinstall any programs or did anything that I felt could conflict with NIS...
    So far, I have no idea of a solution and have to use NIS2007 again.
    Does anybody know how to solve this problem?

    Hi !
    I use NIS since 2001 and never had any serious trouble with this software.
    There could be some compatibility problem, but I don't think that Vista is causing it, because otherwise a lot more people should have the same problem. Even the installation of all current Windows, NIS and Qosmio updates did not solve it. Of course I tried to get help using Symantec's Support and their user forums, but without success. This problem seems to be a rare one (unfortunately for me). I tested the NIS2009beta and even though it's a new version, the PC freezes again when this program starts. And this made me think that maybe a service or setup by Toshiba causes the problem and other Vista users are not affected. It's a strange thing that the pre-installed NIS2007 version is running fine...
    Cheers,
    Mario

  • Qosmio G30-126 - Strange scratching noise

    Hi!
    I have a Qosmio G30-126 and OS Vista Ultimate. about a month ago my laptop was taken to service because it wouldn't turn on, but since last week, when I started it up there was a prolonged scratching noise on the startup, and since then whenever Im listening to music or if the laptop's on standby, there are some very weird scratching sounds coming out from the speakers. Short sounds that keep being repeated. Sometimes they stop after a few times, and other times, like last night, I had to restart.
    I tried updating all available drives, but everything seemed up-to-date. I also googled the issue, but none of what I found was relative.
    Can someone give me a clue as to what the issue might be? Is there something I haven't thought of that needs to be done?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    That might be an option...how can i see if it is the fan though? Is there a way to do it on my own?
    Is it possible that these sound issues might be because of overusage? I don't keep my laptop on 24 hrs a day, but some days it's on till the evening. But only after the service did this whole thing occur..

  • Qosmio G30 - black screen on external monitor

    Qosmio G30 (PQG32E) running Vista Home Premium, NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 driver, 7.15.10.9813
    I cannot get a picture on an external monitor (tried two different monitors). Specifically:
    'Windows Mobility Center' will recognise that a monitor is connected
    'NVIDIA Control Panel - Change Display Configuration' will recognise the external monitor ('Select the displays you would like to use' shows 'Laptop Display + Sony SDM-HS73', which is the plugged-in ext monitor)
    but no matter what configuration I try, using Fn+F5 or Change Display Configuration, I cannot get anything but a (backlit) black screen on the external monitor.
    The monitor is receiving a video signal correctly: when turned off under a laptop-only Fn+F5 setting, it shows a 'no signal' warning, but when turned on again I just get black.
    I have tried changing resolution settings for the external monitor. They exactly match the monitor's native resolution. Still nothing.
    Tried 'Clone' mode and 'Dual View' mode.
    Tried various different orders of switching the laptop and monitor on, plugging and unplugging, etc.
    Have installed latest driver from this Toshiba site (as above). Have NOT tried installing any other driver from the NVIDIA site, since it warns to use Toshiba's - but is that worth a try?
    The laptop's own screen and all other aspects of video are fine.
    It has worked ok in the past (I think before I did the upgrade to Vista, when it was still on XP).
    Do I just wait for another driver update from Toshiba, and perhaps Vista SP1?
    I'm really hoping this is not a hardware issue, since the monitor is recognised etc....
    Jonathan

    What port did you use?
    The external monitor (analog) port or the D-video out port?
    As far as I know if you have used the external monitor (analog) port then you should choose the Analog display in the nVidia -> current display
    Then you could use the button FN+F5 to switch between the both displays.

  • How to switch to S-video- or AV-input on Qosmio G30-188?

    Hello!
    How can I see the pictures which are coming in from the av- or s-video-input on the right side of my Qosmio G30-188?
    I couldn't find a way in the media centre.
    Please help.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    You can start the Media Center Edition by pressing the TV button which is placed above the F keys! As far as I can remember its a first button.
    Pressing this button will launch the MCE that allow you to capture a signal from the s-video in port.
    Did you take a look into the user manual? Please do it! The preinstalled user manual provides many useful information and hints regarding the MCE and video in port ;)
    Please also take a look here into your first thread and don't post twice:

  • Qosmio G30: SPDIF option unavailable in Audio Properties

    Qosmio G30, SigmaTel HD Audio Codec, running XP 2
    I'm attempting to route the audio signal thru the built in coaxial out to amp. No signal. When I go to Sounds and Audio Devices>Advanced>Volume control panel /Properties there is no slider /column for spdif, in the list of things to show in the advanced panel nor any way to turn it on. Likewise in SigmaTel's panel there is no option to route thru spdif.
    Furthermore, Advanced Controls is greyed out in the Volume control panel.
    What have I missed? I can't for the life of me figure out why there is no signal nor any way to turn on spdif in this machine.
    Also, in Media control Devices Properties box there is this list:
    (MCI) CD Audio
    (MCI) Microsoft Video for Windows
    (MCI) Midi Sequencer
    (MCI) Sound
    mciqtz32.dll
    All of which say they are functioning normally. Any ideas why I can't seem to find the spdif option?
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes. Thanx Jeffrey. I understand the cable and output issues. A simple coax w/ a 1/8" adapter on the end going into headphone/digi jack will suffice.
    But again, the problem is:
    I cannot access an option within Audio prefs which would allow me to turn spdif on. I do not see a place using dxdiag where I can see that information.
    So, can anyone imagine a scenario where spdif is no longer avail in Audio prefs? I went into windvd and there are options to passthru spdif, but clicking them did nothing in windows.
    All help appreciated.

  • Qosmio G30 TV tuner problem

    Dear All,
    Notebook Model: Toshiba Qosmio G30
    I have formatted notebook and installed Windows XP pro, I did my best installed all drivers and programs. I began to test notebook, I have seen one problem TV tuner. As we know before in notebook was Windows Media center edition. There we can easily use TV tuner with default soft.
    My question is that, in WINXP PRO, how can I use TV tuner? Antenna cable and other issues already solved. When I am pressing TV button in notebook no reaction. Please assist me to use TV tuner. In Drivers CD I have installed all drivers and programs, but still no reaction.
    Waiting your feedbacks!

    Hello guys
    It is very interesting discussion and I just want to write my comment about that.
    I dont know Ilyas what are you doing and for what is your company specialized but I dont agree with you. I will not write now about Toshiba notebook but about notebooks generally because all notebooks manufacturers have the almost the same policy.
    All notebooks have sticker where is written Designed for Windows XP. That means all of them MUST work well with this OS. Microsoft has designed media center edition for multimedia units that allow watching TV and also many other functions. Notebook manufacturers are responsible for own hardware and it MUST work under WXP (in this case media center edition). You have bought MULTIMEDIA notebook and after first start I believe it was everything ready for use. Am I right? Or you have found something dont want to work?
    Every manufacturer (electronic, card or something else) support just delivered product. If you make some changes and there is no original condition you can not expect the product manufacturer is responsiblefor that. Last week I bought sport outside mirror for my car. It doesnt match 100%. What you think, who is responsible for this, car producer or tuning-company? Car manufacturer is not obligated to test all tuning parts available on the market. The same situation is if you use some third part applications and see it doesnt work properly with hardware.
    Please be a little bit realistic about that. I am pretty sure you can configure your Qosmio G30 to work well with WXP Pro but you will discover that some functions can not work like with factory settings. Sorry but you must live with this. If you find out which application for watching TV works well please let me know.
    Good luck!
