Qosmio G40-10E: How to conenct to the sky LAN broadband

I know nothing about computers.
I'm buying the G40-10E and geting sky broadband and they say you need a spare ethernet on the computer.
All I can find is RJ11 and RJ45 is this the ethernet in a differnent name.
If i cant link it to broadband this laptop ill save my money.

Hi
Dont worry dude.
The Qosmio G40 supports all ports which are important to establish the sky broadband.
The RJ45 is the Ethernet port; known as Lan port ;)
You can connect the sky broadband modem to this port using the simply LAN cable ;)
Hoe I could clarify this ;)

Recording input with Qosmio G40-10E

Hey
I've got the Qosmio G40-10E.
Trying to record some TV, been messing around just seeing if I could get it working, but no luck.
First I tried playing about with media center, couldn't find a way.
I then googled it and found this... (I realize it's a different model, but it's the closest example I could find)

But the picture enhancement utility isn't in Toshiba assist thing for watching input (tried that first just to test). I downloaded cyberlink and that could only find two devices (webcam and Toshiba capture).
Any idea? I'm linked up to a TV using it's composite out going to the video-in cable (going from composite to, i think it's, a 3.5 jack (same used for headphones anyway) I got with the laptop.
Thanks in advance for any help : )

Wait a moment. Have you problem with recording only or you are not able to watch TV at all?
I have made some experiments with Qosmio G30 and WMC and I was able to record all available programs. Because of that I would like to know if you are able to watch TV or not.

Qosmio X500-15F - How can I modify the DPI?

Hello
With Qosmio X500-15F and graphic card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M
I'm using a professional software for jewelry building (Matrix 6.0 based on Rhinoceros 3D 4.0 SR9). When starting it, the software is asking me to set the DPI to normal.
How can I modify the DPI? I already tried different resolution settings. It doesn't change the problem.
Thanks for help

DPI is how many pixels per inch of the LCD. You can't change that.
I think the software needs a specific resolution or LCD size. Try lowering the resolution to 1280x800 or try an external monitor.

How to only edit the Sky within an image?

Hi. I'm trying to fathom how you can, say, change the saturation; brightness;..etc of one particular section of an mage instead of the changes being applied to the entire image. Say, I wanted to tweak the adjustments for only the sky within a landscape picture but to leave everything else alone...how would you achieve this?

Thanks for the responses so far. This seems crazy. Here we have a Pro Application like Aperture yet it appears a user cannot do a relatively straight forward task of adjusting a particular area of an image.
Dodge & Burn is ok but doesn't allow me to adjust colour for example?
The colour eye dropper is ok but like you said if you alter the sky (blue) then you end up messing up other blue areas within the image unintentionally.
I am familiar with 'Layers' within Photoshop and was hoping Aperture could do something equivalent. Are 'Stacks' similar to layers? Could you have multiple stacks with each stack addressing an individual aspect of an image then stamp them all into one?
Back to my original question, my friend said Photoshop Elements allowed you to do what I want i.e. select just the Sky for editing by performing a 'Colour Cast' operation.
Is Aperture missing something really obvious?

Qosmio X300-14Y- How can I find the old BIOS version 1.90?

Hi,
First of all; I am so sorry for my bad english knowledge..
Im from Turkey.
I use x300 14 y since one week. factory bios version for vista 32 bit 1.90. But I upgraded to 2.10.
How can I find old bios 1.90 setup file again. ? Please help.......

You are right. On Toshiba download page you will not be able to find older BIOS version.
When the new BIOS update is realised the old one will not be available for download.
If you need older version contact nearest authorized service provider.
They must have it. Be cool and talk with them. Maybe they can send it to you per mail.

Can I use two HDDs in Qosmio G40-10E

Does anyone know if it is possible to fit two Hard drives in this laptop. I read simewhere that there were supposed to be two hard drive slots in it?
If so where is it located?
Would ther be any issues around extra heat that might be generated etc?
I have had mine for about 5/6 months and have already had a screen replaced (faulty backlight).
Have many other people had any problems?
I'm just wondering whether its worth taking out the extended warrnty.
Cheers.
Sunil

For those who are interested (from Natalie at Topaz):
P000488540: Hard Drive Holder = £0.60
P000417800: Screws = £0.87 each (4 required)
Total = £3.48
(Ex. VAT & Carriage)
P000413670: Connector Screw = £0.95
I have no idea what the 'connector screw' is, but at a quid, I've ordered one anyway. I've also had two emails - written in Natalie's own fair hand... on her keyboard... in just 24 hours.
What a fabulous bunch they are at Topaz! (The also do repairs and servicing for Toshiba.)
I don't know how long it'll take to arrive but at least I've found the right kit, and from a company who really do have superb customer service - even to having human beings write emails. Amazing service so far from Topaz - gotta' love 'em.
Cheers,
Chris

Qosmio G40-10E - Does it support a 12mm Hard Drive?

I've been searching on the internet for this, and I've found some websites say that it DOES support a 12mm hard drive in its bay, and others have not said this at all.
I just want confirmation that a 12mm hard drive, of 2.5", will fit into the laptop, as I wish to upgrade to the new WD 1TB 2.5" HDD, but it's not the standard 9.5mm size, but 12mm instead.
Thanks

Hi
I think Dr.Lamp is right. If your notebook is compatible to this HDD its possible to use HDDs with 12.5mm height. So you can buy this 1TB Western Digital HDD that you want.
After this you can give us a feedback how it works. 1TB is pretty much disk space and Im interested in it how it works. :)

BIOS issue with my Qosmio G40-10E

Hi
Im desperate I have to access my computer before Wednesday or I could lose my job. Ive installed a SSD drive which went ok. I have adjusted the BIOS settings and now my computer wont boot .
It goes to the Qosmio logo and to a logos of hdds' usbs etc and hangs. I cant get into my BIOS as it seems to ignore the key press to go into BIOS (tried ESC, DEL, F1, F2, F8). The computer stays on the icon screen. I have taken my machine apart and removed the rtc battery its been a day but it hasnt reset the bios to default .
Has anyone any ideas? Is there a jumper/ dipp switch on mother board to reset? Is there a special key to press I dont know about? Where ahould i hit it!!!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated I will be in serious trouble if I cant get my machine working I know I ahoukdnt have mapessed ith BIOS but I assumed at worse I would be able to access and reset .
Thanks o much for any advice
phil

> I have taken my machine apart and removed the rtc battery its been a day but it hasnt reset the bios to default
This was the worst thing you could do removing RTC battery would not reset the BIOS.
This was possible on desktop PC but doesnt work for notebooks.
To be honest your issue description isnt very useful you said you are not able to access the BIOS. If notebook does not ask for BIOS password, you should be able to access the BIOS pressing ESC and F1
I guess this should work of course in case you did not damage the motherboard by removing the RTC battery.

How to colorize the sky

how do i make the sky more blue when it is very white looking?

I prefer to use the HSL sliders in ACR, and reduce the luminosity value for blue (and sometimes cyan), and increase the saturation values for the same colours. It works particularly well when you have clouds in the sky, because they are not affected so stand out more - almost like a post production circular polarization filter. You need to watch for large clumpy noise if you go too far - actually I think is more likely to be localised posturisation than noise.
This was taken directly into the sun, so the sky lacked saturation, but the above technique brought back the deep blues. BTW It was taken with an ultrawide, and the camera was about 12 inches from the nearest horse's nose Feathered flash lit the horse, and the man was composited in from a shot in the other direction (spot the erronious shadow).

How to record from the video in or S-video Ports on Qosmio G40?

Can anyone tell me how to record from the video in or S-video ports, because i've tried the Ulead DVD factory program and the only capture device it could see was the webcam, and it did capture from it
After that i've downloaded the update file that was provided by the support website
The devices that the program could see are the TV tuner and the webcam (which it couldn't access anymore for some reason)
After that i've downloaded a newer update which simply is the same as the last update and seems that someone in the support website directed the link of the new update which they don't have to the file of the previous update which doesn't really do anything.

Hi
There are 2 s-video ports; s-video out port is not designed to capture the signals from any external source. The name of this port says everything; its an OUT port!
The s-video-in port must be placed at the right side of the notebook. Dont mix the both ports. But note; this port receives only the video signals. To hear the sounds, use a video cable to connect the sound terminals of the audio device and your computer.
Red: sound right channel
White: sound left channel
The Ulead DVD Movie factory can be used to capture this signal.

Qosmio G40 - How do I monitor sound input?

I have installed Adobe Audition on my Qosmio G40 but have been unable to monitor sound input or get Auditon to record. (It used to work fine on my xp pc) I have been able to record sound but cannot listen to it as its 'going in'. I also tried to install an external sound card: CREATIVE EXTIGY but cannot get the laptop to recognise that it is installed.
Can EXTIGY work with my laptop?
How do I monitor sound input?
The installed sound card is Realtek
Advice welcome.
Sean.

I presume you mean the menu when you right-click the volume control icon on the desktop toolbar. It does list the input devices and when a mini jack input is connected the simulated led lights respond to the volume of the input. I can record from the line input but I cannot hear it as it is going in. In other words it records it silently but plays it back okay.
The device manager declares that the sound card is working without problems,
Somehow I want to be able to hear the input as it is being recorded and I have not been able to find out how yet. Some people have been telling me that it is a vista problem. Others say that its the laptop manufacturers who set up the laptop so that when recording line input the sound is disabled to prevent feedback from the external mic on the laptop.
Either way I am a bit astonished that I cannot resolve this problem and it is not a problem that has been mentioned before when you consider how many thousands of people are buying Toshiba laptops !!
A few days ago I emailed Realtek but have not held my breathe for a reply.
Its looking like I might have to uninstall vista and reinstall xp to solve this problem.

Qosmio G40: How to create master disk for Windows Vista?

Hello all,
I am looking forward to install Windows XP additional to Windows Vista on my QOSMIO G40 (dual boot).
Before starting this journey I need to secure a little bit the way-back by creating a *master disk* I can boot from to load Vista.
I am not talking about re-installing Vista starting the re-installation disk but about a master disk.
Somebody to help me on the subject?

I am not sure what you mean when you say "Master Disk". Do you mean a floppy disk that has Vista's boot loading files?
EasyBCD can help you setup the dual boot configuration.

Qosmio F50 - How do I bring the Fn-Keys and Hotkeys to work on Windows XP?

Hello.
I downgraded my Qosmio F50-137 to XP, found every driver needed for hardware recognition, but am still looking for the Fn-Keys and Hotkeys to work.
I know (or at least think) that I have to install the "Toshiba Hotkey Utility".
But this utility needs the "Toshiba common module" for Windows XP to be installed.
I fond on the web two common modules for Windows XP:
common_modules_2489A
and
common_modules_24895A
The first one says "This software utility does not support this system.Installation will be terminated"
The second one says "TVALZ driver installation has failed"
How can I make the installation work properly? or How can I make the Fn-Keys and Hotkeys work on my F-50 ?
Thank you in advance
Camusensei

Ok sorry for not answering the questions but I have to find a webpage to answer a few things...
{quote:title=I said:}I've found the XP drivers of other components for my computer on the Toshiba European driver page {quote}
But I'm not sure it was there, since going there and trying to find the page again drove me to the normal driver page.
I'm asking your help me finding the page where:
- You choose your computer in a column by type and then the next column apperar (on it's right), until you have selected your computer, and a button "choose now" appear.
- When you click this last button, you land in a page where you have more drivers than in the normal driver page of toshiba (for me I had the option of Windows XP, while I don't have it on the normal page)
- I'm preety sure it was on the toshiba-website, but I don't remember how to find this page again... And since I already formatted...
I'll continue looking if I can find it again, if someone knows this page, please tell me/us...
thank you in advance.

Hi there.

why is it like this and is there any updates for my graphic driver?

Qosmio G20 - How do I get the tuner to work?

Hi There
I have a Toshiba G20 Qosmio. :) It has windows xp professional installed on it.
I can access the Qosmio Player (pressing the tv button) when the laptop is off. I get a snowy picture.
I donnot have a remote. I am from South Africa.
Can someone help with the following:
- Do I need a remote to tune to a psecific frequency?
- If no, how do I tune to a specific frequency without a remote?
- How do I access the user interface on the Qosmio player?
- Can the Qosmio player be accessed from Windows?
- Is there a guide on how to setup and use the Qosmio player? If yes, please provide download link.
Thanks

Hi
How do you want to watch TV?
What Qosmio player do you have?
As far as I know the Qosmio Player versions 4.3 and older do not support DVB-T signal.
Furthermore Im not quite sure if you would be able to receive the TV channels in South Africa if this Qosmio G20 has been released in European country.
The point is that the internal tuner would not receive the signals due to different PAL/NTSC settings.
Regarding the channel scanning:
Please check this thread:
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=25430
In order to run scan you have to start the Qosmio player, press the F1 key and go into setup.
There you can do a scan. You dont need the remote control!
The other fact is that the Qosmio Player is not Windows based applications and you cannot start if from Windows. If Windows is running then you can use the MCE (Media Center) instead of Qosmio player.
