Qosmio G30: How to add the RAID driver without a floppy drive?

I am going to set win xp tomorrow, as far as i remember i will be promted to insert a floppy with additional RAID/SCSI drivers - i guess i need to supply some drivers for XP to see my RAID stripe.
I was able to download 'raid-drv-qog20-xp-1380.zip' but i am afraid to look if my laptop has a floppy drive... How do i add the drivers without a floppy drive?

Hi
Maybe stupid comment but if you can buy Qosmio G30 I presume you can also obtain one used floppy. I have done this few times with Vista and Qosmio G30 and it works well.
Check eBay. You will get used floppy drive for few euros. Otherway try to create CD and if the RAID drive is needed browse to ODD, I didnt try it because I have FDD but you can test it on your Qosmio.

  • 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.

  • Qosmio G30 - Question about the Raid driver

    Do i actually need this driver to use RAID? If its set in BIOS, what does the driver actually do? apart from give you health stats?
    Cheers

    Yes, you need the RAID driver.
    I think The Qosmio G30 was designed with the RAID feature like some G20 units.
    Without this RAID driver you will be not able to install the OS because the OS setup cannot recognize the HDD.
    The RAID uses two options:
    RAID-0 (Striping): two HDDs are used as one big drive, if one HDD fails all data is lost
    RAID-1 (Mirroring): both HDDs contain the same data, if one drive fails data is not lost
    I think you could check this posting and additionally use the forum advanced search for more results about RAID.

    In the user manual you will also find many info about RAID

  • How can I add the hard drive icon to the menu bar on a MBPr

    How can I add the hard drive icon to the menu bar on a MBPr?  I have downloaded Google Earth and it wants me to drag it to the hard drive for install. I was able to display the icon but now I would like to put it on the menu bar. Is this possible? Or can I add it to the hardware section under system preferences?
    I'm a new Apple user, coming out of the dark ages of a lifetime in the PC Windows world.
    Thanks

    It's on your Desktop, is it not? You cannot put it on the menubar through OS X although you may find third-party utilities that will. If you want it on the Desktop:
    Select Preferences from the Finder's Finder menu and check the desired boxes:
    Click on the Sidebar icon in the toolbar to set what you want displayed in the Sidebar.

    what file name is for the driver of gpib-usb-b?and how to add the driver file to vb in win2000??thanks

    Hi,
    Multiple files are required for the proer fnctioning of any of our GPIB products. Unfortunatly the installation is not as simple as copying a single file over. If you wish to make the installer silent, i believe this is entirely possible in a fashion similar to the details given at http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/0730A66245E6808086256CA8006E2183?OpenDocument.
    Hope this helps out!

  • Qosmio G30: How to install Qosmio player on Win XP?

    I bought a new G30 with Vista Ultimate inside. Many applications and devices not run on Vista and I decide to do a migration to XP PRO. Windows working excellent but....... how to install Qosmioplayer on XP PRO (working TV and rest buttons ) .
    I have many Qosmioplayer recovery CD (from toshiba ftp ) but all give me message: Recovery is not for this system? There is version on XP PRO?

    Hi
    On the Toshiba European driver page you can find the Qosmio Player Utility for Windows XP MCE (should run also with XP Pro) or OS independent version.
    Choosing Qosmio G30 (PGQ30) I found the Qosmio player for Win MCE v1.61 and OS independent version 4.4-200601112.
    Choosing the Qosmio G30 (PGQ32) I found the Qosmio player for Win MCE v1.70.
    I would recommend trying to install these utilities and check what version will work on you notebook.

  • How to add the Note board web part to a page with powershell

    Hi everyone,
    I've been looking around everywhere but haven't seen it explicitly mentioned. 
    Does anyone know how to add the Note Board web part to a Team Site page, e.g. Non-publishing site, Left Zone, First webpart in the zone in powershell?
    Examples like this one http://adicodes.com/adding-web-part-to-page-with-powershell/ only talk about custom web parts uploaded from a local drive.
    The example here looks good - http://spcrew.com/blogs/lists/posts/post.aspx?id=21 but is it for the Page Viewer Web Part. How would you go about getting the correct name for the note board web part and configuring it? 
    Many Thanks,

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to add the Note board web part to a page with PowerShell.
    The name of the Note Board web part is SocialCommentWebPart.
    I recommend to use the powershell code below:
    $pageUrl="http://sitename/SitePages/test.aspx"
    $SiteURL="http://sitename"
    $site = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($SiteURL)
    $web=$site.OpenWeb()
    $webpartmanager=$web.GetLimitedWebPartManager($pageUrl, [System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts.PersonalizationScope]::Shared)
    $webpart = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.WebControls.SocialCommentWebPart
    $webpart.title="Note Board"
    $webpartmanager.AddWebPart($webpart, "MiddleZone", 0);
    $web.Close()
    Then the Note board web part will be added to the page.

  • Why can't I install the RAID driver?

    I'm a newbie with a newly built system, I originally wanted to set up a RAID0 with my two drives but I ran into a problem using the instructions in the user's guide.  No matter how many times I pressed F6 to install the RAID driver, it just won't load and pressing CTRL+I does nothing.  Eventually I gave up and just install the drives as IDE drives and installed the OS on the first drive.  After installing the OS, I tried to install the IAA RAID Edition but it keeps saying that I don't have the right I/O Controller installed even though I know I do because I checked it using Intel's chipid program.  I'm running out of ideas, can anyone help me?

    In Bios>>Integrated Peripherals>>On-Chip IDE Config:
    You must have 'Configure SATA As Raid" set to "yes"
    Then if you have the drives attached to Serial1&2 properly(data and power), you'll be able to use control-I to enter the Raid Utility and configure the Raid.
    Then load the XP setup CD and hit F6 to install the Raid drivers and continue the WinXP installation.
    The Intel IAA Raid Edition will Not install if it detects the Bios setting mentioned above is not enabled OR if there are no Raid configured drives.

    Thanks
    Sanju

    Hi Sanjana,
    What you can do is to use the ABAP keyword INSERT or MODIFY to add or modify records to a given database table. Here are the syntax taken from SAP documentation:
    *Insert Statement
    INSERT dbtab
    Syntax
    INSERT { {INTO target VALUES source }
           | {     target FROM   source } }.
    Effect
    The INSERT statement inserts one or more rows specified in source in the database table specified in target. The two variants with INTO and VALUES or without INTO with FROM behave identically, with the exception that you cannot specify any internal tables in source after VALUES.
    System Fields
    The INSERT statement sets the values of the system fields sy-subrc and sy-dbcnt.
    sy-subrc Meaning
    0 At least one row was inserted.
    4 At least one row could not be inserted, because the database table already contains a row with the same primary key or a unique secondary index.
    The INSERT statement sets sy-dbcnt to the number of rows inserted.
    Note
    The inserted rows are finally included in the table in the next database commit. Up until this point, they can still be removed by a database rollback.
    *Modify Statement
    MODIFY dbtab
    Syntax
    MODIFY target FROM source.
    Effect
    The MODIFY statement inserts one or several lines specified in source in the database table specified in target, or overwrites existing lines.
    System fields
    The MODIFY statement sets the values of the sy-subrc and sy-dbcnt system fields.
    sy-subrc Meaning
    0 At least one line is inserted or changed.
    4 At least one line could not be processed since there is already a line with the same unique name secondary index in the database table.
    The MODIFY statement sets sy-dbcnt to the number of processed lines.
    Note
    The changes are transferred finally to the database table with the next database commit. Up to that point, they can be reversed using a database rollback.
    Hope it helps...
    P.S. Please award points if it helps...
