Qosmio x775 3dv78

hey guys, I just got a 3dvy8 from my father, and I really like it, but when playing demanding games like ARMA II or GTA IV my framerate would drop from  around 40-50 to around 11, and then go back up. systemrequirementslab says that I should be able to flawlessly play on high settings without problems, and other I've seen other videos of  people playing ARMA II on the highest settings with the GTX 560m. So how do I make my laptop perform like an actual gaming laptop?
since I got it about a week ago I've reinstalled windows and all the drivers to factory fresh state, if that helps

The solution for my X7753DV80 was a BIOS update provided by Toshiba that adjusted the automatic GPU overheating parameters that were kicking in way too easily. Plus I set my GPU power settings to maximum performance. I actually got a courtesy call from Toshiba to inform me about this a couple years ago, which was unexpected. But game performance drastically improved.
Good luck!!

  • Qosmio X775-3DV78 no optical drive in setup

    Yesterday I put a DVD in my drive and it didn't run.  I noticed the power was off so I assumed it was the annoying Toshiba utility turning it off and FN-Tab didn't work, so I rebooted.  After rebooting it still didn't come back.  I noticed that it was missing from Device Manager, so I did a scan for hardware and nothing.  After several attempts to get it back, including the utility to fix the registry, I rebooted and went into setup by hitting F2 on boot.  When I got there the general tab said the optical drive wasn't there.  I had the 2 internal hard drives, but no optical drive shows up in the hardware setup.  I check the BIOS version and I am current with 2.10.  I don't know when this started since its been a while since I tried to use the drive, but if its not showing up in the setup screen, it doesn't appear to be Windows or application related.
    The drive appears to be OK as far as getting power, etc.  I can eject it, put a DVD in and hear it spin and the light flashes while it loads it.
    Any suggestion on how to get the hardware to recognize the drive.

    Turn off your laptop, unplug all wires, remove the battery, and hold the power button for thirty seconds. Afterwards, reattach the battery and connections.
    If the problem persists, call customer support at (800) 457-7777.

  • Qosmio x775-3dv80 Blu Ray/DVD burning gets Blue Screen of Death.

    I just got a new Qosmio X775 3DV80 laptop.
    Tried to burn a Blu Ray movie with DVDfab 8. The process went through all the way till the very end and then I get a blue screen of death every single time. the brief error says IRQ problem. burning DVD gets the same.
    a friend as a same model laptop. tried on his with the same result.
    So it's not my particular machine!
    i installed a copy of Windows 7 Pro on the sencond HD. burning either DVD or Blu Ray with no problem.
    it suggests there's a glitch with combo of the original Windows 7 and the Blu Ray drive.
    i have not contacted Tosh yet.
    Anyone else experience the same???

    Peter, thanks for your suggestions. I tried so and didn’t work either however. I compared the drivers for the blu ray disk between the preinstalled Windows 7 version and my Windows 7 Pro (works as my first post). The only difference is the former has two drivers: (1) cdrom.sys, and (2) tdcmdpst.sys. (the Windows 7 Pro has only one : cdrom.sys). It seems this model shares the a common problem, but not enough users with the app combo to stir up some waves… Additionally: Between my first post and this one, the screen acted up. It would go black and came back in 2 sec with full brightness. The current app would freeze and brightness control function stopped working. Happened in random and a few times within an hour. Got a replacement from Amazon where I bought it (same blue screen problem on this one, too). Two weeks or so later, the 3D function went out on the new one. Today, the wireless function went south… am I "lucky" or crap on Tosh’s side?

  • BSOD on toshiba qosmio x775 q7272 0x100000b8, hal.dll, athrx.sys, ndis.sys and ntoskrnl.exe

    This is my first post on the toshiba forums. Recently i have been gettin the dreaded BSOD (blue screen of death) on my toshiba qosmio x775 q7272 with the error code 0x100000b8 'attempted switch from dpc'. So far i have scanned for viruses which was clean, checked both hard drives for errors also clean, and checked RAM and re-installed the drivers for my atheros WLAN card. I am now out of ideas as to what to do. Normally crashes occur when the laptop is moved but doesn't always, like i can have weeks of no BSOD then all of a sudden i have 2 within 20 mins. I am only keeping this brief and there are details that i havn't included but they seem minor to me.
    Please help i am getting frustrated as it never BSOD on games just menial tasks which makes no sense at all, any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards Sam

  • My Qosmio X775 3D doesn't record video or just fails at it

    Hello,
    I have a Qosmio x775 with stereo webcams, but when I try to record 3D video it just stutters goes full screen and shows highly distorted 2 screens of video, and records side by side video... which when I use the Toshiba 3D player it just shows it side by side, no matter what configuration i give it.
    When recording it's highly distorted using 2 squares (like 10% of the screen space) on the upper right corner and full screen. Also when trying to upconvert video to 3D it just shows a mess.

    Hi
    Im wondering if you have calibrated the 3D vision before trying to use the 3D future on this notebook?
    The Toshiba 3D webcam supports Support 2D mode, Shutter Glasses 3D mode and Red-Cyan Glasses 3D mode.
    So ensure you have configured this properly.
    Furthermore dont forget to remove the foil placed at the front of the webcam. This affect the webcam quality.

  • Qosmio X775 - CPU usage is over 99%

    I have a Qosmio x775 and while (im not gonna lie) i was playing LoL, somehow evverything started to go slower. My mouse barely moved, so i quit everything and turned off my qosmio.
    Then i turned in again and the problem got worse.
    It took like a minute to open the start menu. So i opened the task manager and watched the cpu usage went from 24% to 99, 100%,
    So i started to end useless, yet cpu consuming processes and somehow my laptop went back to normal.
    I'm about to scan it with my antivirus and im gonna erase stuff i dont need, but i just want to know what could happened and how to avoid it when it happen again?

    I agree with Joe.
    Have you noticed this from the first day of usage or later?
    What you can try is to stop some useless background processes to see what will happen after doing this.
    Which antivirus application do you use?
    If you use original preinstalled OS disable or stop Tempro and Toshiba service station tool. They are pretty active in the background. Original preinstalled McAffe needs much resources too.
    Play a bit with all this stuff and check in task manager which application or process make CPU so busy.

  • Toshiba Qosmio x775 Randomly Turns off and on itself.. PLEASE HELP!

    Whenever I turn on my Laptop Toshiba Qosmio x775..it randomly turns off then turns on itself..sometimes for just 20-30mins or sometimes less than or sometimes in can run the for many hours..the problem is not with the Adapter because i try to put the battery and unplug the adapter and still it happens randomly..dunno whats the problem with this..
    Mostly i researched..they said it's overheating..they said to check if the fan is full of dust something like that..but none of it works..I downloaded a program CoreTemp to check the Temperature for overheating issues..and it's only on 45-50 degrees..and that program has overheating protection to shutdown if it reaches 90 degrees..but in my case in does not reach that degree and still shuts down..hayy..need help badly..

    SO FAR SO GOOD FIX GUIDE-
    If you own a Toshiba Qosmio laptop and you are having problems with it powering down for no reason, try this.
    1) Unplug all the wires and remove battery
    2) Hold down power button for 30 seconds
    3) Plug everything back in and start it up
    4) Hold F2 to enter boot menu
    5) Go to the Advance Tab
    6) Set Execute Disable Bit to Not Available
    7) F10 to save and exit
     SO FAR SO GOOD!

  • Qosmio X775: Can I install games on HDD instead of SSD?

    Hey everyone,
    I just got a new Qosmio X775, it has a 64gb ssd and a 1TB hdd.
    Just wondering how does the sdd work? It doesn't have enough space to install games ect...
    it has windows 7 OS installed on it.
    Do i just install all my games into the hdd and use the sdd for a few things?
    Can someone please explain to me how they are used?.
    thanks .

    I agree with Akuma
    The SSD drive is much faster than the HDD and therefore the Windows OS is installed on the SSD which helps to boot the notebook faster.
    The HDD is recognized in My Computer and can be used for other stuff like data, games, 3rd party software
    I recommend creating an additional folder on the HDD. For example Game folder, Movie folder, Music folder, etc
    During game installation you should point to the game folder of HDD other multimedia (jpeg, avi, etc) files dont need any installation and can be copied and pasted into these single folders.

  • Qosmio X775 Volume Button Annoyance - Solved

    Qosmio X775 Volume Button Annoyance Whenever using Windows Media Player (and possibly other applications), pressing a volume Up or Down button mutes the sound from the application, emits an annoying beep, then gradually, slowly increases the volume to the new level. There is no visual indicator of where the volume level is.
    The net result is that the volume seems totally uncontrollable at first, until you realize how it works. But the annoyance factor never goes away. The only way to use the buttons is through multiple trial and error attempts with that loud beeping. VERY soon, you find yourself using the windows volume control and just skipping the buttons.
    Is there some way to disable this 'feature', so that you can just adjust the volume until it sounds right?
    Thanks for any help you might be able to give.
    --97T--
    Never mind.  The fix is to disable button beeps in BIOS.

    An on-screen display for volume would be nice, though.

  • Qosmio X775 Q7380 will not take windows or recovery

    I bought a Qosmio X775 Q7380 from a friend about a month ago. He bought it brand new a few weeks before I bought it from him. It ran great when I got it. I wanted to put a clean install of windows on it to remove any of his files and get rid of the bloatware on it(sorry toshiba lol). After a reformat and install of windows everything was good, I got the drivers on it and it was great. After each windows update the computer got a little worse each time untill it just would freeze up/run super slow from start up. After trying several different times to get this to work I ordered the recovery disks from toshiba (they say x770 series on them, not sure if they sent me the wrong ones). I ran the disk and it would pop up an error saying could not copy file sector is encrypted and stop working. I used the recovery disk to do a complete format of every sector and after 30+ hours of running it errored again and quit. My last try was to use windows and not update, This worked for about a week with everything running fine untill it just got extreamly slow and windows explorer would always crash right after boot. I've done everything I can think of short of putting a new HDD in it. Is there something i'm missing or is the drive just done.

    It sounds like either a problem with the recovery discs or the hard drive. I'd call support again soon to see what they can do.
    While I don't recommend doing clean installs, keep in mind that you can find your drivers on the downloads tab of your laptop's product support page.

  • Upgrade screen to 1080p on Qosmio X775

    I have seen a few threads around different places on people who swapped out the 1600x900 screen in the x775 with a 1080p version. I have not been able to find anyone that listed what exact screen they used.
    One guy mentioned he got a screen for a Dell XPS17 and it worked great. I have the x775-q7170 and I love it except the screen is terrible. its like looking through a screen door.
    Anyone on here who has done the swap and can list parts etc?

    Hi
    It seems that your Qosmio X775 has been equipped with an 17.3" HD+ TruBrite LED Backlit display. This supports 720p content, 16:9 aspect ratio, 1600x900.
    From my knowledge some of Qosmio X770 series supports the 17.3"(FHD) 16:9 display with an max resolution 1920 x 1080 for 3D Vision.
    For example the Qosmio X770-10G or X770-107 supports such display. The display is from Samsung with part LTN173HT02 (or K000123120)
    Maybe this info might help you.
