Qosmio G30 212 - Recovery CD in English

I am searching the links to download the Recovery CD for my Qosmio G30-212 but in English instead of French (what I have now).
Does anybody know where to look for there CD's ?
Any help is Welcome ;-)

Hi
You can order the Recovery CD from the ASP in your country. But I presume you will be not able to order it in English language. You can purchase only the same recovery CD which was delivered together with the notebook and it was a French language.
What you could do is to install the Windows from original English Microsoft CD and then to install the Toshiba drivers from the page.

Qosmio G30 - system problem after recovery procedure

I have Qosmio G30 - 148 which have Windows XP MCE, when trying to download some programs system crashed and make automatic restart.
I then used a RECOVERY CD to recover my all system and followed the instructions on the CD but when finished and rebooting the system a famous blue screen displayed tell me there's a problem in my system and windows must be restarted.
When reboot in safe mode there is a message tell me that the system is not fully installed. Please run setup again.
Could any body help me in that problem because it's a strange problem?
Note: I tried to install Windows XP from external CD but system did not know the hard disk.

Hi Ahmed
I would try to provide some useful hints;
First of all you can install the XP Pro on the Qosmio G30 this is no problem.
I assume you couldnt install the XP on the G30 because your have not installed the RAID driver firstly. As far as I know the XP would not recognize the HDD without the RAID driver.
The RAID driver installation is not very difficult. During the XP Setup procedure you have to press the F6 to include the driver from the external USB FDD drive.
If you dont have a USB diskette drive, then you could use a nLite to create a new XP CD with the RAID driver.
However despite everything Im not sure if this will help.
There could be really a hardware issue with your G30.

Qosmio G30-141: Want to change Windows language from Russian to English

Hey Ilyas
Unfortunately, there is no much to do. The OS language cannot be converted!!!
If you want to use the Windows in English language you will have to buy the original Microsoft Windows CD with a English version of Win MCE.
Then you have to install this OS and the necessary drivers from the Toshiba driver page.
The drivers can be chosen in different languages.

Qosmio G30: Need XP drivers tools CD-ROM in english

Hi!
I'm an italian owner of Qosmio G30, and I want to use Windows XP Pro in english. Is there any way or any place on the Net to download the ISO of Toshiba CDROM Tools and Drivers in english?

Hello Cesare
All you must do is to visit Toshiba download page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/ > Support & Downloads > Support homepage. There you can find download section.
Everything you need you can find it there on almost every European language. ISO file is not available just single drivers, tools and utilities.
Thats all.

After recovery the second HDD is not visible - Qosmio G30

Hello
I have Qosmio G30 and i use the recovery cd and i lose the 2 hdd
The 2 Hdd is not shown in my computer and every time i restart the system tell need mirroring.
So ineed some help plz
thx

Hi
I presume your RAID settings are set to mirroring (RAID-1) and not to stripping (RAID-0)
The RAID settings can be changed in the BIOS on the 3rd page.
Please check this.
But note; if you would change the RAID settings then you would lose the whole data stored on the HDD.
PS: Check you user manual. There is a useful info about RAID and how to use it.
Best regards

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 G30-126 monitor become black and FN buttons don't work

Hello,

It's OK, but I'm closing cover of notebook and instantly open, monitor become black and i can't anything do beyond restart .
In Control panel in possibilities of power supply , bookmark "options for closing pad" doesn't work.
Maybe it is by, because i don't driver if exist
And second problem maybe related with first but this is mistake by it, because I wasn't discover drivers because i don't hidden toolbar on up on dispay in Windows, where is standartly is.
I don't work major part hidden functions under key FN ( I think FN + F2,F3...F12) plus keys be the side POWER without multimedia keys on music..
Thx for help !!!
Sry for my bad english

Hi Martin
First of all its interesting if you have downloaded and installed all Toshiba Vista drivers which are released on the Toshiba European driver page?
All drivers must be installed in the right order!
If I'm not mistaken the Qosmio G30-126 belongs to the PQG32E series. It was delivered with HD DVD drive and therefore you should choose the drivers for Qosmio G30 HD DVD (PQG32E)!!!
Please check firstly the Installation Instructions txt file and then install all drivers like mentioned in this document.
Regarding the display issue;
You should install the right NVIDIA driver from the Toshiba page!!
The FN keys and control buttons dont work because the Toshiba Vista Value Added Package was not installed. This package contains different applications which are necessary to get all Toshiba functions running!
Good luck

Few issues with Qosmio G30-179 - remote and TV

Hello, (I'm French and my English is bad)
I have a Qosmio G30-179 and I can't use my remote when the computer is power on. But I can use the remote for turn power on my computer and I can use it when I use the TV or Media buttons (at the right of the power button.)
Other problem: I don't receive anything when I seek a TV signal on Media player. Even if I'm in a place where I've already receive all TV channels. Maybe there are others problems undetected...
All these functions have already worked and I realized they don't work little time ago. But I didn't use them for a long time ago, since I received my computer when it returned guarantee (I send it because it had a problem at RAM bars.)
Then I think there was a problem with the support service. But I'm not sure.
What do you think about it? Must I call them?
Or this problem can be resolve easily?
Thank you in advance.

> All these functions have already worked and I
> realized they don't work little time ago. But I
> didn't use them for a long time ago,
If all those functions are worked before I recommend you to use delivered recovery DVD and install OS again. After doing this your notebook will have factory settings again and, I hope, everything should work again as before.
Try it!

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 - Media center remote control doesn't work in windows

Dear All,
I have Qosmio G30-194,
first i had a problem with the VGA , i send it for repair, when it comes back i noticed that the remote control is not working on windows Media Center, while in A/V mode it work perfectly.
I tried to do full system restore from the recovery DVD, but nothing changed, even i installed Windows Vista with all of its drivers.
Nothing changed also, I borrowed a USB IR received for another remote control it worked perfectly with my remote on windows.
Please advise me what to do, do i send it back to the service center , or there is an easier solution.
Mazen Habbal
N.B, : My laptop info are:
Model Number PQG32E-01P018AR
Thank you in advance

don't expect toshiba to fix problems like this.
they replaced motherboard on my laptop and ever since the remote was not working.. it would turn the laptop on but was unresponsive thereafter. thing's we have tried:
- install software and drivers for remote again
- reinstall windows
- replace reciever
- change motherboard
- change remote
- terminate and restart relevant processes
- downgrade bios
- update bios
- combinations of the above
on several occassions Toshiba told me they were able to replicate and solve the problem but after trying it on my laptop they remembered that actually their one was slightly different.
almost a year later, i still have a non-working remote
my theory is the laptop leaves factory with certain software which Toshiba fail to include in recovery partition and\or bios that is available through them... so once you lose the factory components (i.e.the original motherboard) you also lose some necessary files with them.

Qosmio G30-137 - Video card issue - the vertical lines bug

Hi members,
today my Qosmio G30-137 started making troubles showing vertical lines which look like this:
After using product recovery disk Windows was unable to initiate first start and came up with a bluescreen with the error-code:
+page fault in non-paged area STOP 0x00000050 (0xC09C3044, 0x00000000, 0X804DA90AA, 0X000000002)+
This basically indicates that memory - either RAM, L2-Cache or Videomemory died. But i also learned that the graphic card can be smoked.
After the blue screen you wont get the system into normal working condition, no matter what you try.
I would strongly advise to check if your Qosmio is under warranty and see your dealer for exchange. Fortunately i bought mine 2006/06/06 so its still under warranty (even if just a view days left).
Additional information: another member of this forum had a similar problem and reported that the whole motherboard has to be changed which causes cost of USD 700.00 and up!
I will let you know what i ended up with.
BRgds
The Q

Unfortunately, this sounds like a serious hardware issue as the other member suggested, the GPU (graphic card) could be faulty and therefore the replacement is necessary.
The point is that the GPU is soldered on the motherboard and its not possible to remove the graphic chip from the board. In most cases the whole motherboard must be replaced to solve such graphic problems.
In my opinion you should contact your ASP as fast as possible.
The technicians should be able to help you explain the whole situation and you issue and ask for the further handling.
Good luck buddy

Qosmio G30: Conflict between Sigmatel audio driver and Vista SP1

Hello,
I have a Qosmio G30 PQG32E notebook and can't upgrade to Vista SP1 because the Sigmatel driver (6.10.5462.0) is conflicting with the service pack.
As some of you might know, Sigmatel no longer exists and IDT who bought them is as good as non-existent, saying to contact the OEM directly for updated drivers.
Is there any plan to upgrade the audio driver ?
There are huge memory leaks in my case from the audio driver.
When using Photoshop or Premiere Pro, the audiodg.exe proccess consumes 800MB and more after one hour of continuous work.
I am hoping for an updated more stable driver, and more stability from SP1.
Am I a dreamer?

Have your problems started after SP1 installation? Just for info: at the moment Toshiba does not support SP1. I really believe that you have some troubles and because of that I still wait with SP1 installation.
You are right about Qosmio. It costs a lot of money but using delivered recovery image installation you will not have any problem. About memory and how much resources Vista needs you can read everywhere. Even if you close some application RAM will still be occupied with different information. If you start the same application again you will see that application starts second time much faster.
It is Vista!!!
You have really nice notebook and you should upgrade RAM to maximum level. I am pretty the notebook will runs much better and of course faster. For such notebook 2 GB for Vista is really the minimum.

Qosmio G30-126 - Win7 or Vista instaltion hdd not showing

Hello everyone,
i have one system Qosmio g30-126.
I dont have the recovery cds.
I want to instal the Win7 or Win Vista.
He is not showing me the both 200+200 HDD.
plz telling to me what i do.

Hi mate
I think you dont need a SATA driver but RAID driver!
As far as I know the Qosmio G30 supports RAID and therefore you need to include the RAID driver.
Visit the Toshiba European driver page and download the RAID driver which is listed in the list.
Note: Choose the Archive in Product Type because G30 is an older series.
After you have downloaded and uzipped the driver, you will have to add this driver during the Windows installation setup.

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.
