Qosmio G50 129: can it be used/accessed by other DLNA products?

Hello
I have a Qosmio G50-129. I am looking to purchase a DLNA certified TV but wanted to know whether the laptop is DLNA compatible so that I could access the content from my Qosmio on the TV or if there was anything that I needed to do to make the Qosmio "DLNA compatible"?
The http://www.dlna.org/digital_living/product_types/#pc_frame website advises the below:
"Personal Computers (PCs)
Anyone who has a PC knows that they have powerful networking capabilities built into them. So, their DLNA Certified potential is determined solely by the type of software installed on them.
DLNA Certified PCs are able to act as a Digital Media Server (DMS), Digital Media Player (DMP), Digital Media Controller (DMC) or Digital Media Renderer (DMR). Most of the PCs available today start by being certified as a DMS, since a lot of us keep the bulk of our digital content on our PCs."
There is also a search and match section on the site which doesn't bring up my Qosmio model. Does this mean I cannot or is there a solution/workaround for this?
Any help would be much appreciated.
REkha

As far as I know any PC with a network interface (e.g. Ethernet or Wi-Fi) can become a DLNA device by installing DLNA software. In January 2010 DLNA began a certification program for software.
As far as I know Toshiba will offer new application in future and make DLNA usage more comfortable. It should be an interface to Windows Media Player.
At the moment you can try to use standard Windows 7 functions that should be available in Windows media player 12 (bundled with Windows 7).
To be honest I don't have other DLNA device and cannot test it but very soon I want to buy DLNA bluray player with integrated WLAN and want to have access to my PC and watch movies on TV but saved on notebooks HDD.
So pick up some info about DLNA function on Windows media player 12 and see how it works.
Please be so nice and inform us about all this.

Qosmio G50-129 - Can't run Windows 7 SP1 on large HDD (1TB)

Hi,
I have a G50-129. I have replaced the primary HDD with a 1TB unit which works fine. Windows 7 Ultimate x64 installed and all of the drivers are installed, too, including the Robson drivers which include the Intel Matrix Manager.
I then tried installing Windows SP1 and I get a catastrophic failure. I also tried the Windows Update Standalone Installer, which fails with error 0xc8000247.
I have seen a number of threads, here and elsewhere, which cite the Intel SATA drivers as being in need of an update. The SATA controller seems to be the ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller.
I have downloaded the latest version (IATA89ENU.exe ver 12.0.0.49974) and still get the same problem.
Can anyone suggest anythying (apart from put the old disk back in)?

Thanks, both.
I think the problem is the sector size - SQL Server is complaining about the sector size being 3k (it says that Master data and log files were created on a 4k sector size and that the sector size needs to be that or less and it's currently 3k). I guess that it means that it must be 4, 2, 1k or 512 bytes. I asked Tosh if I could put in a 1TB drive and thay said it should be OK but may need a BIOS update. Mine is fully updated.
I tried sfc /scannow and it reports corrupt files it can't fix; I rebooted and re - ran with the same result.
I can't install the System Update Readiness Tool - it also errors.
CHKDSK has started but got to the 1 second to press any key to skip and has just hung there - none of the usual info about the disk it's working on . The disk light is flicking, though, so I'll keep waiting for a while.
If that does nothing I'll re - install Windows from scratch with the Intel Rapid Storage Driver loaded when it asks for the disk to install on and see if that helps.

My Qosmio G50-129 keeps overheating, extreme lag

i bought a Toshiba qosmio g50-129 and i have had it for about 9-10 months.
Now, every time i play a game, it overheats and i get so much lag that it gets down to 3-5 Frames per second.
This occurs every 1-2 minutes and lasts for 30-45 seconds, it makes a lot of noise and makes my computer lag a lot.
Is it " broken"?
I have always handled it very carefully, never got virus. i even formated the C: drive to see if it the problem was gone, it was gone for about 5 days, i only downloaded world of warcraft.
What ive tried:
Update all drivers.
Closing all other applications, all unnecessary processes.
Reducing graphics to abseloutely minimum.
It has 512 mb graphic card, nvidia gmt 9600 or smthing.
4gb ddr3 1k mhz RAM
2,66GHZ processor. intel core 2 duo t9550

Hi
What graphic card driver did you use?
You should always use the Toshiba graphic card driver since such driver supports an overheating protection!!
Last week I read on 3rd party page that original nVidia graphic card driver has been removed from nVidia page because it caused a GPU overheating
Hopefully you didnt use the graphic card driver from nVidia page
Second question;
Do you use latest BIOS?
If not, please update this!!!

Is Tmobile contract free iPhone 6 locked to Tmobile network? Can it be used internationally with other carriers?

If I buy a Tmobile contract free iPhone 6 in apple store, does that mean it is locked and can only use Tmobile network? Can it be used internationally with other carriers? I travel a lot and do not want to find out my phone does not work the moment I insert a local carrier sim card.

"The iPhone 6 will come unlocked as long as customers pay full price," a T-Mobile representative said. "If customers choose to take advantage of T-Mobile’s Equipment Installment Plan it will be locked until the device is fully paid off. This policy applies at both T-Mobile and Apple stores."

how can i get songs downloaded from other apple products on my shared apple id on to my ipod nano? my daughter just got a new ipod nano for her birthday and we redeemed the shared apple account our family uses and when we went to go buy music it says we need to redeem another card for us to buy the music so i was wondering if i could just let my older daughter download the music onto her phone via itunes app and see if that music would go on my younger daughter's ipod nano but i am looking on the itunes and i don't see an option for that for ipod nanos. thanks so much.

You should always make sure that you put all of your music on your computer. From there you can sync it to whatever device you like

Qosmio G50-11R - Can I use two HDDs?

About Qosmio G50-11R
Does anyone know if it is possible to fit two hard drives in this laptop?

>...but there is no connector. Is it possible to add such a feature?
As far as I know something like this is not possible.
The cover is the same for all Qosmio G50 models but some of them are delivered with one HDD only. In this case the mainborad is not the same as in G50 with two HDDs. There is no connector for second HDD and it cannot be soldered additionally.

Qosmio G50 - Where can I find Windows 7 drivers?

I own this portable:
Qosmio G50 series PQG55E
But I don't find the download area for Windows 7. There is a place where? For other series I found a section but does not correspond to my model. You know where it can be?
Thanks

I'm owner of a Qosmio G50 PQG55E too.
At the moment I use as OS Vista 32 Bit.
I like to change the OS to Win7 64 Bit .
Is it possible to run the G50 under a 64 Bit system ?
Where can I find 64 Bit drivers ?
At the download area of Toshiba I can only find four 64 Bit drivers and more than 100 32 Bit drivers :(
Will Toshiba offer 64 Bit drivers in the near future ?
Best regards from Germany,

Qosmio G50-129 PQG55E - 64Bit Windows 7 Upgraded - How To Update BIOS?

Hello,
I have a Qosmio G50 that I have upgraded to Windows 7 64bit. My BIOS is unupdated from 6 months ago when I bought the machine.
I went to update the BIOS just to keep things up to date, so I went through the online driver wizard:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
And with all the above information inputted, it provides:
http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/bios-20090312131718.zip
After unzipping and running P0060v210.exe, it extracts and then says:
" [Error] BIOS Update is not supported OS. Unsupported OS or service pack is installed. " (Word up to all my Googling friends!) "
Does Toshiba have a BIOS update for the Qosmio G50 that is supported on Windows 7? Specifically 64bit? They should fix this glitch that directs you to download this file when it clearly isn't supported by Windows 7.
Also, I tried to run it in compatibility mode with Windows XP SP2 and it ran fine -- but I was nervous about going through with the update if it originally doesn't support Windows 7, so I don't continue at the next prompt. Is it safe to do this? Has anyone else in this situation done it without issues? I've read that BIOS updates can go horribly wrong if not careful, so I'm hesitant to update the BIOS by running the updater in compatibility mode when it doesnt support Windows 7 on its own!
Thanks in advance for any assistance and Merry Xmas.

Hi All,
Sorry ,my English is not perfect.I have a Toshiba Qosmio G50-12K.The solution is go to the US Toshiba website.Here is the link:
http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=2140527& rpn=PQG55U&modelFilter=G55-Q805&selCategory=3&selFamily=804517
There are all of the BIOS what is available. The 2.1 BIOS exactly the same as on the European website just they used a zip file. If you guys open it you will find the same .exe file, the file size is the same, but don't use this one, instead of it you can find there an ISO file. Write a CD with this one, turn off the computer and boot from the CD, use the F12 button. This is a safety way update the BIOS. But I use the 2.3, this is newest one, for me this one is works much better, because the display is more bright. I hope this is a big help for you and you understand my English! :)

Hi maniekok3,
Unfortunatley its not possible to upgrade the CPU and nobody knows if other CPUs would run properly or not.
Just check this document:

VPN connection works, but can't ping or access any other device on remote network

I have an OS X Lion server at work (uses a static IP of 192.168.2.10). VPN is setup and works.
The work network's router has an IP of 192.168.2.1 and hands out IPs of 192.168.2.100-149. The VPN service is configured to hand out IPs of 192.168.2.150-170.
My home network uses a router with an IP of 192.168.1.1 and hands out IPs from 192.168.1.2-49
Both routers are using subnet mask of 255.255.255.0
The problem is, I can connect to the VPN just fine and access all services running on that same OS X server like iChat and AFP file sharing. But, I cannot directly access any other device on the office network like client machines or even trying to log into the router's GUI interface. Pings timeout, etc.
Example:
At my home, I have a local IP of 192.168.1.12 and I connect to the work VPN. It assigns me an IP address of 192.168.2.151 and I'm able to connect to iChat on the OS X server that has a static IP of 192.168.2.10
In terminal, I try to ping the router on the work network (192.168.2.1) and I get no response (even though ICMP response is turn ON). I try to ping another OS X workstation on the work office, and get no response.
I'm not sure how to fix this, or whether I need to change settings on either router or the server.
Would greatly appreciate any insight or help on this. Thanks.

Check the DNS settings on the server (see my earlier post in this thread).

Why can private variables be accessed by other instances?

From an OO design perspective, I'm sure this makes sense, but perhaps somebody could articulate it for me so that I can understand the rationale.
I can see that one way of looking at encapsulation is that the object itself should be encapsulated and if you have 2 Person objects, why should one Person be allowed access to another Person's private data?
Why is this not how Java decides to implement access modifiers (i.e. not a per-instance basis)?...I have no idea how other languages do it because I'm new to all this, but perhaps you can explain for me.

I don't know why it was designed that way, but
consider this:public class Example {
private int value = 42;
public void setAnotherValue(Example ex, int
nt newValue) {
ex.value = newValue;
Thanks for your example. Looking at it, it makes me realize that this per-class access is specially meant for access to other instances, because otherwise the method would just look like this, correct?
public void setAnotherValue(int newValue) {
   this.value = newValue;
}How would the runtime check you mentioned look? I couldn't figure out which of the following two you had in mind and are appropriate:
public void setAnotherValue(Example ex, int newValue) {
   if (ex == this)
     ex.value = newValue;
else
     throw new RuntimeException();
}or this...
Example e1 = new Example();
Example e2 = new Example();
if (e2 != e1) throw new RuntimeException();
e2.setAnotherValue(e1, 57);

Can iphone 4 use facetime with other phone?

Hi,can iphone 4 use facetime or video call with sony ericsson satio?do need to install any software?

yes the above said, yahoo messenger came out with the update, which you can do video calling from your iphone 4/ipod touch 4G to a pc/mac. It can be done through wi-fi or 3G
There is another app called Tango which you can do video chat cross-platformed, meaning, you can make video call with another device that isn't an iphone 4, such as an android phone, they should also have tango, once they download the tango, and if their e-mail is saved in your contact, you will then be able to make video calls. can be done in wi-fi or 3G
*if you have unlimited 3G data, then I wouldn't worry, but if you have a data cap, then not recommeneded as it can eat up your data pretty fast.

Why can't you use PipedXputStream in other than threaded application

I have need for usage of these in a non-threaded application, however the Javadoc indicate this should not be done.
"Attempting to use both objects from a single thread is not recommended, as it may deadlock the thread."
As the Java community is composed of some brilliant people, I am curious as to why any limitation of this sort has not been fixed/addressed?
What is the root cause of these deadlock situations?
Thanks in advance.

And that avoids the situation were you could be trying to write more than the stream buffer can hold or trying to read more than you wrote to the stream.
data = getData();
outPipe.write(data);
data = inPipe.read();
doSomethingWith(data);
// is just a roundabout way of coding
doSomethingWith(getData());
