WiFi module in Qosmio G40

I need remove (not swith off) WiFi module from Qosmio G40. Can I do this and how?

May I ask you why do you want to do this???
Do you have any Wifi problems???
The reason why Im asking is simply; the WLan card seems to be hidden somewhere under the keyboard.
To remove the Wlan card the keyboard must be removed firstly. But this would cancel your warranty validity.
Therefore in my opinion its not advisable to remove this.
Ive got another idea. If you want to disable the WLan card then you could do this in device manager.
Cheers

  • Windows 7 Drivers For Qosmio G40-12S

    I have a Qosmio G40-12S with windows Vista Ultimate 32bit
    And i have Install a Windows7 Ultimate 32bit instead of vista , Before that i had download all drivers in this link (http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp)
    I have select those choice:
    Notebook > Qosmio > Qosmio G Series > Qosmio G40 > PQG40E > Windows7 32Bit > ALL > ALL > English > Search
    but i think there no Windows7 version from all what vista has, For Example: there no Infrared driver for Windows7 but there one for Vista
    There no TEMPRO, ASSENT, Acoustic Silencer, AMT, Online Product Information, Remote Control Manager, Touchpad Driver, Tiles for Mobility Center, etc.. For windows 7!
    My Vista Driver was 27 driver - windows 7 only 19 driver!!!
    8 Driver was missing in that link, were can i find that drivers?
    I have search for TouchPad Driver and i have found one for it, But i can't found Infrared Driver and Remote manager so my Remote Control not working now?
    Please advise me!

    I presume offered drivers are there for Win7 upgrade only. That means before you upgrade preinstalled Vista you must remove some Toshiba drivers, tools and utilities.
    After successfully installed upgrade you should install just stuff offered on Toshiba download page. All other stuff will works with Vista specific drivers and Toshiba tools and utilities.

  • How can I fix the stability of my wifi module

    Hello I have an Imac 27" Core i7 3.4 Ghz 8Go Ram running under Lion 10.7.2,
    I am using a NAS connected through wifi,
    Everything worked well since july 2011, but since about a week my connection wifi seemes to be very unstable and it induces the finder to crash (or freeze),
    If I try to restart the finder it will not restart proprely, the computer hangs and all the other program crashes (probably as they cannot acces to ther network drive) and I cannot shutdown my Imac, I have each time to hold the power button for 10 second and then restart the computer,
    I suppose that the sutation was induced through a fix that was installed about a week ago,
    I did check with the software update, everthing is up to date,
    I am pretty sure that the wifi module is the cause as when the finder crashes I cannot turn the wifi off anymore,
    If I  turn the wifi off after booting my imac works perfecrtly.... though I really need my wifi connection to acces all my data on the NAS...
    Does any one have an idea how to fix this problem... or get back to the point I was before the "fix" screw my wifi module...
    By the way my wifi network is stable, I use it with several other devices without problem,
    Thanks in advance
    Pierre

    Acually I found the solution alone...
    Despite the poor stability of the wifi module the finder crashes were due to a corrupted Time machine file probably linked to the wifi interruption as my time machine backup is on my network drive...
    I erased the old backups, Initiated a new one, everything work fine.. but I have now an ugly 100 feet network cable through the house, so I still look forward to have a better wifi stability to get rid of it!!!

  • HP Pavilion dv6 - replacemen​t a WiFi module

    Hello!
    I have a dv6-6b55er model of notebook (product No: A2Y97EA, rev.17F9-110). Some time ago I bought a new WiFi access point which support a 5GHz-band (standards 802.11a/an/b/g/n). But WiFi-module in my notebook is not support this band (WiFi-module based on Broadcom 4313 chip - 2,4GHz band only). My friend gave me a module with support 802.11a (based on Intel-chip). When I installed this module and turned on my notebook - I saw a message that "these notebook is not support these installed module" and not loading  Windows...
    So I have a question to You: which miniPCI-E WiFi-modules with 5GHz-band are supported by my notebook? If such modules are exist for my model of notebook...
    Thank You!

    I'm sorry - I have bad English, but I understood you. So you want to say that is not the fact that the module I bought somewhere on e-bay or Ali will work in my notebook? Yes, I understand that I can get a fake - it's probably to be some identifier for notebook in this module... But it is better to err on the $ 13 than 45...
    And about witelist and USB-dongle - it's something interesting... Even such verification exists? And why needs all this...
    I just want to start using the 5GHz band due to the fact that the range of 2.4 GHz is very very busy in our location. If the new module will support N-standard (at least until 150-200Mbps) - it will be very good for me.

  • Qosmio G40: Vista Ultimate - Control buttons don't work properly

    Hello friends,
    I have a Qosmio G40 for a few months and everything is working well till now.
    The problem is related to the front operation panel.
    If i am using Windows Media Player, the buttons PLAY/STOP/PAUSE/FORWARD/BACKWARD work well, but if i try to use (in any case) the other buttons like REC or TURN LEDS ON or DOLBY, the button makes the usual sound but nothing happens, doesn't open any program that is supposed to open.
    Does anyone have any idea of why this is happening. I've been trying to look for any configuration software of these buttons but can't seem to find any.
    My system is Windows Vista Ultimate.
    Best Regards,
    Ricardo Monteiro

    Hi
    The Toshiba European driver page provides the AV Controller Manager.
    This tool allows you to customize and preset TOSHIBA AV Control button settings.
    Maybe you should install this tool and should check it again.
    Additionally it would be advisable to reinstall the VAP
    Check it out!

  • Qosmio G40 has a problem with HDDVD

    Hi,
    I just bought Qosmio g40 Nice laptop but I cannot watch HDDVD movies on it.
    Movie crashes sound as well I update bios Drivers for graphic card Toshiba HDDVD player but that makes no changes.
    I do not know where to go and how to solve the problem Last samuraj HDDVD does not play.
    Anyone can help?

    DId you already tried to recover your machine? Perhaps it could solve your problem, but I cannot promise it. Otherwise it would be interesting if this problem only occurs with this movie or with another disc.
    Please grab some another HD-DVD and check if the same occurs. Maybe its an hardware related issue.

  • Qosmio G40-10Z: Question about energy use in sleepmode

    When I turn my new Qosmio G40-10Z in sleeping mode, with full battery (and off the AC power), I can't start the computer next day. I can only start it up after connecting it to AC power. I get a message windows Vista wasn't closed properly and I am asked to start in normal way or safe mode.
    After starting the battery indicates only 2% power. So, what is using power in sleeping mode? Why isn't the sleep mode not transferred to hibernation state when the battery is almost empty?
    (New notebook, only vista and office installed and only television antenna is connected)

    Hello guys
    At first I just want to write a little bit about theory. Microsoft has implemented standby/Hibernation mode to offer PC users comfortable OS usage and make switch ON/OFF time much shorter.
    According to the definition standby mode should be used for short time (launch, meeting and if you must leave the notebook for few hours). Hibernation mode should be used if you leave the notebook over the night or maybe day or two. In standby mode all data will be written in RAM and to keep them notebook needs power. In Hibernation mode all data will be saved on to HDD and notebook can be switched OFF. In hibernation mode the notebook does not need permanent power supply.
    For me it is really strange that you use standby mode with battery and almost 20 hours. With this I do not want to say that described battery issue is normal but for 20 hours it is logic to use hibernation mode.
    Back to battery issue: only 20 hours under standby mode is really to short. I have tested it with my Tecra and after 5 days I was able to switch ON notebook as usual (only battery power supply.
    In your case I see only two explanations:
    1. Somehow notebook can not switch into standby mode properly and stays running (I do not believe this because you can see if something like this happen)
    2. The battery is defective
    What you should do is to contact Authorized service partner in your country. Make a call and explain the situation. Maybe you will get new battery or they should test it using your battery.
    Sorry for this long posting. I wish you luck and hope you will clarify this issue very soon.
    Bye and good luck!

  • 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)
    http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=21006
    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 : )
    Kieran

    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 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 G40-108 Recovery DVD needed

    Hi. I have a Qosmio G40-108. Unfortunately my recovery DVD was damaged and i am now in need of it to restore my machine. I ordered one from Toshiba 5 weeks ago and they still can't tell me when i am going to receive one.
    If there is anybody who could kindly do me a copy of this i will be grateful. I will gladly pay for it.
    Regards
    martin

    Hi
    This forum is not an exchange market!
    I presume at the moment the G40 recovery CD is not available and the authorized service provider has ordered the Recovery CD from the Toshiba head warehouse.
    This takes a little bit longer.
    But if you want you can install the OS from the original Microsoft Windows CD and all necessary Toshiba drivers you will find on the Toshiba European driver page!!!

    Hello and good morning,
    I'm a new user here at the forum, and i hope i'm posting in the right place :).
    I just bought, well in march a Qosmio G40, and i'm very pleased with it, but 3 days ago I noticed a problem with it, the program BRIGHT.EXE, which controls the brightness of the flatscreen is not working (well, it stoped working), when i press the button in the operacional front panel, or use the combination FN+F6 or F7, it doesn't work, windows says that the program BRIGHT.EXE gave an error but doesn't specify which error.
    Does anyone have any idea of why it is happening and a way to solve it ?
    Best,
    Ricardo

    Thank you guys for your answers.
    I'll try first to install the Value Added Package first. Do I have to uninstall the version i have first? or can i start the instalation and it will uninstall automatically ?
    And then if the re-installation won't work, i'll try to rollback my OS.

  • Qosmio G40 - Windows 7 64bit and missing drivers

    Hello..i recently upgraded my G40 to win7 64bit and have been very dismayed at all the missing drivers.
    so far
    1 Cd/hd dvd drive - driver not supported on this product - it was when it was on vista 32 - now i just get cd drive error.??
    2 tv tuner - no driver available
    3 av controller - no driver available
    4 acoustic silencer - no driver available
    5 finger print software - installed driver - no hardware found?? it definatly has one ..im looking at it.
    6 hdmi control manager - no driver available
    7 infrared driver- no driver available
    some of these drivers i can do without - (finger print im not worried about 0 but the CD/HD DVD drive is a real problem..
    Im normally reasonably fine with installing all these drivers...but it seems there are non there ..or they dont see the hardware....please help.

    Wait a moment you are mixing something.
    Do not mix CD/DVD driver and HD DVD driver.
    When you install operating system optical disc drive must be recognized properly. If you have problem watching HD DVD movies that completely other issue.
    So, is optical disc drive recognized properly? Can you use music CDs and watch DVD movies?
    If you cannot find Toshiba HD DVD player for 64 bit OS try to use some other players. I don't have HD DVD media and cannot test it for you.
    PCI memory controller is maybe cardreader.
    By the way, here is the list of all installed stuff on Qosmio G40 (Vista) so you can check if everything is installed and if there is some missing driver. Please note: some additional software is not downloadable.
