Qosmio X305-Q705 - No hdmi video on hdtv

I've been really trying hard to hook up my laptop to Sharp Aquos 32' 1080p hdtv (Model - LC32GP1U) thru HDMI cable and can't get any external video. When I press FN+F5 the only option I have to choose from is LCD. I did read my hdtv settings and based on the manual it has to be set a specific video resolution. Regardless if my laptop video is native or a the desired hdtv video resolution (I set it 1024x768 32bit color) I still can't get any external video on my tv. I restarted my pc and still no external video. I also bought an hdmi to dvi conversion cable (connecting dvi to the back of my hdtv) and still no video. Is there way to test out if the hdmi port works on the pc. Does it work like a usb port??...meaning do you hear a sound when your connect/disconnect the hdmi cable? Or am i doing something wrong here? I also reinstalled my nvidia geforce 9700m gts drivers and also downloaded the new video drivers - beta version from toshiba support site that eventually leads to nvidia site. Right now I'm current waiting for the vga to dvi conversion cable as this is the last resort and I'm hoping it's going to work. If anyone has an other suggestions, I would really appreciate it. I would hate to use vga to dvi and there's no sound and hdmi supports both video/sound.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have the same model laptop, and I bought a DVI-HDMI cable so I could plug in my external monitor using the HDMI port. It's a huge improvement over the VGA output, which produced some horizontal ghosting effect that was annoying.
When I hit Fn+F5, I see my current video selection with 5 "bubbles" below it. Keep hitting Fn+F5 until you select the one you want. I don't understand why it would not give HDMI as one of the options. I am using the LCD+HDMI option, and set it up to extend my desktop across both monitors. There are nVidia settings to set all of that in the Display Settings if you right-clickthe Desktop and choose Personalize.
When I plugged in the HDMI, I plugged in the DVI side on the monitor first, and then plugged in the HDMI. A bit of a flicker - and it was on. I assume it's hot-pluggable, never read that it wasn't. You can double-check the RealTek HD Audio Manager and make sure the HD audio ouput is turned too.
I'm hoping you just have to turn the HDMI on via Fn+F5. I've never plugged my laptop into my HDTV, but some weekend I'll give it a try just to see how it works/looks.
Hope this helps, good luck.

Qosmio X305-Q705 BSOD while gaming

I bought this laptop in December from Best Buy, I live in Canada but it was bought in Delaware (my girlfriend lives in PA so she picked it up for me) and I picked it up when I visited her just after Christmas. Everything seemed to work ok, I went about 2 weeks with no problems and then after updating the bios to 1.70 (it's not at 1.80 with same problems that will be explained) as well as updated the Nvidia drivers with the beta drivers off the Nvidia site.
I refuse to format, as I know that will not fix this issue but this is my only computer, I do a lot of gaming and work on my computer away from home so I stopped investing in desktops and got a laptop to replace my desktop. I used a Toshiba a few years back, then I went to a MacBook Pro last May and now this, I never had a problem running games on my other 2 laptops when I had them but this one just keeps blue screening on me when gaming, at random. It will be less than 30 minutes playing a game, sometimes hours. It doesn't happen daily either so I do not know what is causing this but it is getting very very frustrating, I paid a lot of money for this laptop and it doesn't work. The system, for those who may ask is running Vista Home Premium 64-bit.
Here are the dates and times of the BSOD's I get:
1) Jan.14 at 00:29 hours, with BSOD error "PFN_LIST_CORRUPT" (while playing World of Warcraft);
2) Jan.15 at 02:32 hours, with BSOD error "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA" also showing "dxgkrnl.sys" file below (while playing Warhammer Online);
3) Jan.16 at 01:45 hours, with BSOD error "DRIVER_IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (while playing Warhammer Online)"
4) Jan.17 at 23:21 hours, with BSOD error "IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" (while playing World of Warcraft);
5) Feb.01 at 14:13 hours, with BSOD error "IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" (while playing World of Warcraft).
Toshiba, what is going on? Please fix this, or send me back a full refund and I will take my business elsewhere! This is ridiculous that a brand new computer is having these issue, and it seems others have the same problem so it's not isolated to 1 or 2 machines it seems. you guys screwed up or put really really cheap parts in these systems. Oh, and it doesn't seem to overheat either, I keep it in a well ventilated and cool area as well as I have a laptop cooling pad underneath it, my MBP I had before this got hotter and never had problems so it's not a heat issue.

Wow, not a single response from anyone at Toshiba?
I just had another blue screen of death while playing WoW about 20 minutes before I posted this reply. This didn't show any specific error, it just said "A process or thread crucial to system operation has unexpectedly exited or been terminated". I also had a video crash, I don't the file name with me but some error where my computer locked up for a few seconds, then the screen went black and then recovered and gave me a message saying a video file stopped working but has recovered. I think the video card and ram in this machine were bad right out of the box.
Seriously, this computer cost me a lot of money, and within the first few weeks of using it(about a week of using it under my normal usage conditions) I started getting BSOD's. My first laptop never had issues and was a Toshiba Satellite A100 (forget the rest of the model) and then I had a MacBook Pro which was great even with Vista x64 running through Bootcamp, but this Qosmio a completely different story, these BSOD's are starting to piss me off.
As I mentioned, my girlfriend bought it from a Best Buy in Delaware but by the time I got it home (I live in Toronto, ON) and started seeing the issues I had no way to return it otherwise I would have. Is anyone from Toshiba going to comment on this problem? I tried updating to the new 1.90 bios as well. Should I revert to the 1.40 bios or what because I didn't see the first BSOD until I updated to the 1.70 bios but of course I didn't have much time using the laptop prior to updating to 1.70 so I don't know if that was the problem or not, but 1.80 and 1.90 didn't fix anything regarding these BSOD's so I'm guessing it's faulty hardware you guys put in these systems.

If you read the terms of service, there is no official Toshiba presence here. I'd suggest that you call Toshiba Tech Support and see what, if anything, they suggest. Be prepared to use the recovery process to wipe the drive and put it back to 'out-of-the-box', as that is likely the first thing they will want you to do to eliminate a software issue.
I don't own a Qosmio, so I have nothing specific to suggest. Sorry.

Recovery Problem Qosmio X305-Q705

When ever i start recovery the screen jams untill i release the 0 button .... and .... It shows HDD Recovery Message but starts the windows ? Dosent go into the recovery wizard ! This problem came suddenly and i have done the recovery many times in the past ...... ?

OK, no need to shout!!!
if the hidden partition is corrupt, then you will need to use your recovery disks to reintall the OS and Toshiba crap ware. If you didn't alreay create them, then you will have to order a set.

Not sure that I have selected the correct forum. Hope my questions are clearly stated.
Having problems connecting iMac(late 2006) running 10.7.5 to a Samsung Flat Screen TV using separate audio/speaker cable and HDMI standard cable, mini-DVI to HDMI video converter. TV displays generic Apple galaxy background and "some" windows (e.g. screen resolution choices). It does not show Mail or Safari menus. System preferences' display "gathered" the Samsung and chose its resolution. I did not find a way to select the Samsung as my display.
In addition to having old hardware, we have Verizon FIOS providing internet and TV access. Is there any way to make this work for us? We would like to stream video (Netflix) and view shows from the Web. Do we need Apple TV to do this? Or is it not possible with our old iMac? My husband thinks that our Airport could be a factor.
Thank you

Lately, I have been seeing a lot of posts with users trying to use their Macs/iMacs to mirror their streaming video from their Macs to an HDTV.
There are, actually, many alternatives to choose from than just from a Mac.
You need to have or invest in a WiFi capable router for all of these examples.
Apple TV only integrates with WiFi and newer Mac hardware. So, if you want to have total integrated experience, if you have a 2011 Mac or newer, you might as well pay the $100 for the AppleTV box.
If you have a older Mac, like I have noticed many users do, then you have other options.
If you want to elimate long cable clutter and having your Mac at the mercy of your TV all of the time, you can still use the AppleTV box independently or purchase cheaper alternative media streaming boxes from Roku, Sony, Boxee or any number of electronics manufacturers that now have media streaming boxes and media streaming capability built into DVD/Blu-ray players.
These eliminate long cable clutter by being close to the HDTV where shorter, less expensive cables can be used.
Another alternative for iPad users is to use an iPad with the USB/HDMI video adapter and use your iPad as the streaming box. This ties up your iPad in much the same way as it does with your Mac, but again the iPad can be close to the TV and use minimal cables to the TV.
Another alternative to is to use a combination of an iPad and your Mac to stream content that is only available to stream online from a computer. In this case, you can use a desktop remote app on your iPad and Mac. A good and cheap Desktop Remote app is Splashtop Remote. This allows you to completely connect your iPad remotely, over Wifi, to your iMac desktop. The app streams both video and sound to the iPad which is still connected to your HDTV. The resultant stream video picture will be smaller than the size of your HDTV, but it will still be plenty large enough to watch. Again, if you own a iPad and an Intel Mac, this method also allows minimal cabling to the TV.

Brand New ATV3 - No HDMI video signal.

Brand New (2013) ATV3 - No HDMI video signal when plugging it in to my TV (Toshiba 52" LED).
Ive tried 3 different HDMI cables in 3 different HDMI inputs in various configurations. Still no video.
Ive tried power cycling ATV and my TV, and changing resolutions using the Apple remote - Still nothing.
Ive seen serveral forums offering many but unhelpful options.
Yes, my TV is set to the same HDMI input as the HDMI cable is plugged into.
Please help?

You tried difference HDMI cables, different HDMI ports, cycled the ATV, confirmed optical audio output works. Do you have another HDTV to plug in and test? If ATV video fails to appear in this case, I would say that this would confirm the Apple TV HDMI output is broken given the extensive troubleshooting you have already performed. In my opinion, this would completely isolate the diagnosis as ATV malfunction. Did you purchase it via Apple or Third party? Apple will replace the device within 14 days no questions asked, or service it within one year. If third party, contact them regarding your coverage.
How long is my Apple TV covered by Apple’s warranty?
Apple's Limited Warranty for Apple TV covers your Apple TV for one year. Warranty service for eligible repairs is available at no charge for twelve months from the date of original retail purchase ("date of purchase").

Qosmio X305-Q701 - Black Screen and sound loop while gaming

Hi,
My Qosmio X305-Q701 has recently started crashing while playing any games. Never had a problem out of it until the past month. All games now from WoW and F.E.A.R. to solitare. It will just randomly go to a black screen and the last sound byte while loop over and over requiring a hard reboot.
Graphics card is Nvidia geforce 9700m gts series.
All drivers and directx is up to date running windows vista. I am not very tech savy so any help or expierence with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

I have the exacrt same issues, and have had them for some time. I tried all the software solutions, and mechanical solutions that I could perform myself ( cleaning the airflow vents, and cooling fan ) Nothing has worked. Sad thing is, no real solutions are ever given to this, so let me lay it down like this. The video card is a P.O.S. and is at fault. Only way to fix it is to replace it. Preferably with one equivelant, but from a different manufacturer. In all honesty, this is the worst computer I've ever owned. Even sadder is its the most expensive one I've ever bought. I've tried for help through the place I bought it ( Best Buy, which I am having my own difficulties dealing with ) and Toshiba support as well. No one has offered an explanation as to why this model isn't recalled, and or replaced because its a lemon. Good luck in getting it fixed. My own solution is to cut my losses, get a new computer ( which will never be a Toshiba again ) and chalk it up as lesson learned.

Conecting Mini DVI to HDMI Video Cable with my mac book pro

Hi. I just bought Mini DVI to HDMI Video Cable to connect my mac book pro to my HD TV. I connected the cables and put my TV on HDMI input. On the TV it appears the Snow Leopard Background but I can't see my desktop or the icons. What should I do to view my mac book pro on the Tv? Thanks!

Hi y3p3v3,
On the TV it appears the Snow Leopard Background but I can't see my desktop or the icons. What should I do to view my mac book pro on the Tv? Thanks!
You've got it connected, and you're viewing it already! Connect it up again, and try dragging a window either to the left, or right, off your built-in screen. You'll find that it appears on your TV!
What you're doing is running the computer in "extended desktop" mode. That means that your TV screen is available to put things on, but won't show your menu bar, dock, or icons. Those remain on the "primary screen" which remains your MBP's built-in display.
When the TV is plugged in, go to System Preferences --> Displays
The main System Preferences window will remain on your MBP's screen, but a second one should appear on the TV as well. If you go to the one on your MBP's screen, and click the "Arrangement" tab, you'll see two screens shown in the diagram. One will have a menubar. That's your MBPs screen. You can drag the menubar to the other screen to change the primary screen to the TV.
OR, you can just click "Mirror Displays" and your TV will show the exact same picture as your MBP display. This option is the simplest and will accomplish what you want, I think.
If you have any other questions, or if you need any clarification, feel free to ask!

Mac mini (late 2012) HDMI video going blank randomly in Yosemite 10.10.1; sometimes comes back on with snowy screen

Wow, this reminds me of what happened with Mavericks 10.9.0 until 10.9.3 and later were released and fixed this problem.
My monitor is a Dell S2440L connected to my Mac mini late 2012 via an HDMI cable.
The monitor goes blank randomly and sometimes a snowy screen like you would see when watching a UHF
channel on an old CRT TV shows up when the video comes back on. This happens while in the OS.
I also have power management problems again with computer not sleeping properly and my Magic Mouse
being able to wake up the computer despite "Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer" being unchecked.
I also have Wake for network access, power nap and start up after power failure unchecked as well.
Computer sleep and display sleep are set to "never" as I always had it with Mavericks.
These problems occurred after shutting down my Mac and restarting it this morning.
I know using a VGA cable will fix it but I don't want to do that.
Sorry for sounding frustrated but I'm not alone. So many people are having the same issue
of HDMI video blanking out while in the OS.
I love the look of Yosemite but wish I was back with Mavericks 10.9.5 where everything worked
flawlessly and I really mean flawlessly. It was magical. Not a single problem.
I guess we have to wait for 10.10.2 or 10.10.3.
I don't want to go back to Mavericks but if my screen keeps blanking out then my computer is of
no use for work or multimedia.
I'm sorry about the rant.
If anyone has figured out a workaround until Apple can issue another point release, please let me know.
I already tried resetting the SMC and NVRAM several times to no avail.
Thanks in advance.
I appreciate any help.
Paul

Qosmio X305 will only boot in safe mode or when the graphics card disabled

Hi All
I am having a very concerning issue with my laptop (Toshiba Qosmio X305). It will only boot in safe mode or if I disable the graphics card.
Awhile back I upgraded the drivers for the nVidia 9800M GTX from the nVidia website, it worked fine for awhile, but then it started crashing randomly by giving me a full screen of random color then switching off. I fixed this by rolling back to the previous version of the drivers (the drivers that came with the laptop software).
After that it working perfectly for months but yesterday my machine started crashing and I could not get it to boot correctly.
I have completely deleted (not just a quick format) both the hard drives that came internally in the laptop and I have installed a clean version (the out of the box option) of the x64 Vista that came with the laptop from the recovery disks I created. After I did the install, it boots fine as only the standard VGA device is used, as soon as I installed the driver off the drivers and applications disk it would not boot correctly:
Just after the status bar comes up and it is about to show the windows logo, just before login, I get a black screen. I can hear that it is booting fine and I can even log in to windows and by memory make things run, but I can't see anything. I then got the latest drivers, again from the nVidia website and they are not helping at all.
My system is as follows (nothing has been added, its is just how I got it):
Vista Ultimate x64
4.00 GB RAM
Intel Core 2 Quad
Like I said previously it is a clean install of the operating system, I have not added any programs, except for installing and then updating the display drivers.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi buddy,
It seems that this is a typical example, that only pretested display drivers from Toshiba should be used. Why?
The nVidia drivers are not pretested and they dont have an overheat protection. So for me it sounds like that the nVidia driver has destroyed your graphic card. That means no driver will help you and reinstallation of the whole system too.
I think the only option is replacing the graphic card. Therefore you should contact an authorized service provider in your country. Here you can search:

Explain the whole story and then you will see, what the technicians say. If your notebook is under warranty, hopefully this will be covered too. Normally other display drivers you have to install on your own risk
Good luck! :)

Installing Windows XP on Qosmio X305-Q701

Is it possible to install Windows XP on my Qosmio X305-Q701 without the need of a floppy drive etc?
I saw a few other topics about it.
However on different models, and my laptop does not have the option of putting my SATA drive in to compatibility mode.
Don't mind if i have to slipstream a few drivers, but I need to know if there are XP drivers available for it, for when i look on the drivers download page i can only find Vista drivers.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Kind regards,
Jorde Vorstenbosch
P.s. bought my laptop in the states, So it's the best buy version. (heard they only sold these at best buy, so that's why)

I managed to get Win Xp x64 installing right with almost all drivers in it.
I have upgraded to the 1.70 BIOS version and made a modified version of my Win XP Pro x64 using nLite in order to integrate both SATA and Atheros wireless drivers.
SATA and Chipset drivers are both found on Intel's web site.
Atheros wireless ones were a bit tricky to find, but I managed to do it searching over the net.
Bluetooth driver is the one form Toshiba.
HD audio drivers came from Realtek web site.
Almost all drivers I've got for Win XP 32 serve the x64 version as well.
I have bluetooth, wireless, high def audio and GeForce (laptopvideo2go) drivers installed.
And the best of it all: THE BATTERY PROBLEM HAS GONE USING THIS X64 VERSION OF WINDOWS XP!
Using the x64 version means that you got all 4 Gigs of RAM properly recognized.
I can put all drivers up in a single file and upload to rapidshare, for instance, for those who want them.

K1 - HDMI video out issue

Hello,
First post to this forum.
I bought my K1 end of November. I purchased two micro-HDMI cables, and not seeing video out. Briefly saw the picture on screen once or twice, but nothing consistent. Have plugged my K1 into 4 or 5 different HDMI-enabled monitors/TVs, no luck. The cable doesn't seem to sit very securely in the hdmi port. These are definitely micro HDMI cables I purchased from two different sources (not mini-HDMI). They may only have been HDMI 1.3 version cables, but I think they should have worked.
Sent my K1 in for Lenovo service and came back this week. Everything with HDMI checked out according to Lenovo support. I actually just ordered two more "high speed" 3 ft cables from monoprice hoping this solves the issue (version 1.4). I should have the two new cables next week
Has anyone else had issues with HDMI video out? I would like to know from others if the HDMI worked well for them. Don't know what to expect.
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

My Micro HDMI to HDMI cable works fine with my K1. I have to watch that my micro HDMI plug is fully into the K1's socket, because my case sometimes is too close to the socket and the plug touches my case preventing the plug to fit all the way into the socket and making connection. Like the case. It's a MoKo from Amazon.com for $20.

HDMI video cards

hi all,
I bought a DVI to HDMI adapter to use on my G4 and it works like a charm. Do they make any straight forward HDMI video cards to use on older G4 Macs?

Hopefully japamac drops in, but you might look to see if something like this can be flashed with Mac Rooms & taped off to work with less that 8x AGP...

HDMI video not supporting on nokia n8

Hi Team,
My H/S is Nokia N8,No doubt about the performance,however have downloaded HDMI video but not working..
Can I know what format would be working and what format shall I download

I think you are mistaken. HDMI is not a video format. HDMI is an output port for fast data transfer. What exactly did you download anyway?
