Windows 64-bit performance on Qosmio F30

Did anybody try the 64-bit operating system on Qosmio F30 and is there any difference in the performance comparing with 32-bit version?

Hi
I doubt you will notice a big difference between the 64bit and 32bit OS.
One important difference could be only one fact that the 64bit OS would recognize more than 3.2GB RAM

Qosmio F30 - no sound on Windows XP Pro

hello,
first i have install Windows XP MCE, but few day ago i install Windows XP Profesional edition, and lose sound in my notebook.
What was happen?
How I can fix that?
Someone say that is becouse Qosmio F30 cannot support Profesional edition. Truth?

Hi
The notebook support Win XP MCE and XP Pro!
The XP MCE supports some additional features but its the same OS!
I think you should firstly check if the sound driver was properly installed (check device manager). Check the sound volume control and the sound settings in the control panel!
Do it!

Windows Vista Update posts 64bit driver for Qosmio F30 32bit Vista

Hello
Today I've noticed that Windows Vista update is posting the wrong update for one of Qosmio F30 drivers.
I have Windows Vista 32Bit but Windows Update post a 64bit version of the driver.
see the screenshot [Here|http://imagefilehost.googlepages.com/f30Wrongupdate.jpg]
Any idea?

hmm... this is strange ?:|
The Toshiba x64 ACPI compliant driver means definitely a 64bit version!!!
I dont know why the Vista driver update notification reports an 64bit driver for a 32bit OS but usually the 64bit driver shouldn't be compatible with the 32bit OS.
However, the case seems to be clear dont install it if the driver is not designed for your OS.

Qosmio F30 Sound Driver for Windows Server 2008

I am running a virtual machine with Windows Server 2008 installed on it. The server sees my Sound Driver but it doesn't recognize it and asks for driver all the time. I tried running the Sound Driver installer from the CD but it did work, said: Unsupported operating system. I searched all the web for a driver and I didn't find any. Can any one help in finding this driver for me or let me know it it is possible to manually install this driver?
I'll be so thankfull for any help.

As you probably know Qosmio F30 is not designed to be used as a server and generally speaking Toshiba doesnt support Server2008. All you can do is to identify sound card manufacturer and try to find the driver on their support page.
Sorry buddy but thats all what I can say about it.

Qosmio F30-140: Cannot install Windows OS - No HDD

I've bought Qosmio F30-140 and I can't install winXP from my original cd:/ The recovery cd works great but it installs a lot of stuff I don't need so I want a clean install....
so when I run my winXP cd setup I get error message: "setup did not find any hard disk drives installed in your computer"...
though I can run windows normally which is installed from the recovery cd... I think it's something with hdd drivers.
How can I overcome this? Thanx in advance:)

Hi Sarunas
Its nothing wrong! Nothing with HDD or another hardware!
You have simply not installed the RAID driver
The Toshiba recovery CD contains the RAID driver and therefore you can install it without any problems.
But the Windows CD does not contain such driver and therefore the RAID driver must be installed at the beginning of the Windows installation setup procedure.
Windows will ask you for 3rd party RAID driver. The RAID driver you can find on the Toshiba driver page. Download it on the FDD and connect the external USB FDD drive.
From there you will be able to install the RAID driver.
Good luck..
PS: Search in this forum for similar postings... you will find a lot of threads about this theme...

Hello
What OS is installed at the moment?
If Windows doesnt start anymore there is not much what you can do and I would recommend reinstalling Windows from Toshiba recovery disk. Such a new and clean installation can help to get Windows working and new installed Windows system will also run a little bit faster and more stable so its recommendable to reinstall it from time to time (1-2 years).
So take the Toshiba recovery disk and follow the screen instructions to reinstall Windows.

Limitations of Quicktime files (.mov and h.264) in Windows 64-bit.

It was recently brought to my attention (yes, I'm late to the party) that any file that requires the Apple Quicktime process for playback (decoding) is severely limiting my otherwise powerful system. The Quicktime process is a 32-bit process, which limits your editing functionality to 4GB of RAM—even if you have 32GB or more installed!
I'm starting this new thread because the thread on which this was brought to my attention wasn't directly related to these issues.
A few of my questions: Why do so many cameras create .MOV or .MP4 files that require QuickTime components? 64-bit QuickTime X has aparently been available on the Mac for quite a while, yet I presume they won't allow anyone else to develop a 64-bit codec for Windows, so why hasn't someone sued Apple for monopoly, anti-trust, conflict-of-interest, etc? And most importantly, in a world where DSLRs and off-board ProRes recorders abound, are Windows users really stuck with no option but to transcode the footage before heavy use in Premiere? The Atomos recorders provide the option of using DNxHD, however, if I understand correctly, that codec still requires Quicktime (I've not tested this bit). Is there a matrix available that shows camera / recorded format / requires quicktime / 8- or 10-bit / 4:2:0 or 4:2:2, etc?
To my fellow Windows 64-bit editors, how do you keep your sanity when editing "natively" in Premiere .MOV, .MP4, ProRes or DNxHD with the 4GB RAM limitation? And what camera / off-board recorder do you prefer to avoid both a long transcoding session AND get right to work with native 64-bit codecs?
Thanks in advance!

Just now. Yet, it seems to contradict my own findings. The article says: "In the case of Canon DSLR files, there’s something in the file header. Premiere Pro can recognize that the clips came from a Canon camera, and bypass QuickTime. This enables Premiere Pro to have smooth playback of DSLR files..."
The test I conducted was between files from a Canon 7D in their original format vs. an AVI file I transcoded from those originals using GoPro Studio (formerly Cineform). I load up a project and timeline with the original 7D files and then scrub the heck out of the timeline, back and forth. I have Task Manager open in order to monitor my RAM usage. I simply could not get past roughly 4GB. Once I deleted all the original .MOV files from the project, retaining only the transcoded .AVIs, the project cut like butter. The harder I scrubbed the timeline, the higher my RAM usage soared until it gradually, and gracefully came close to maxing out. Lol. Is there a better test I should run?
The other test I ran was a project where I took a single talking head clip of approximately 5 minutes in length. Nothing too taxing for the hard drive, and something that *should* be easy enough to play completely from RAM, once it played through once or twice. I cut this clip and staggered a few tracks on top of eachother. No effects, no transparency. The cumulative effect was a cuts-only edit, but on the timeline my tracks looked like stairs, etc (perhaps the stairs weren't necessary). The primary goal here was to watch how the system performed with a simple cuts-only project where Peremiere was repeatedly asked to access the same file from random locations in the file.   The .AVI version of this project, again, played flawlessly. The .MOV version played even worse than I was expecting, since cuts-only 7D footage is usually not SO hard on the system (even if it is limited to 4GB RAM). The .MOV project couldn't keep up. Period. As soon as the file needed to "jump back" on itself, the refresh rate became intolerable.
So is the 7D an exception to the rule stated in that article? It definitely seems to be limited to 4GB of RAM! If it isn't, why am I seeing this?
Also, is it possible that the footage from the 7D may not *REQUIRE* Quicktime to decode, but since Quicktime is found on my system, the 7D files default to using it anyway?
I've not tested my GoPro footage so thoroughly, but I believe it's limited in the same way. After a transcode to AVI in GoPro Studio, even 2.7K footage plays slick as a whistle. Not so when I don't transcode.
Further thoughts?

Qosmio F30-140 - How to use Flash USB boot option?

Dears,
After I update my laptop BIOS, when I start my laptop I find new boot method, it is from Flash USB ?:| How can I use it and what type of file must be in it? I mean .iso or what?
Thanks

Hi
I dont have Qosmio F30 so I cant test it for you but I think this options means that you can boot from an USB stick for example. Have you checked this?
You cant boot from an iso file because you must create a bootable media. For example a Windows start disc or a Linux version that you can boot from USB stick.

Qosmio F30-117 freezes

Hi! I bought a Qosmio F30-117 a little while ago and it has now started to freeze. I get to the desktop alright, then it just completely freezes and I have to take the mains lead and battery off to restart it, then it usually loads up fine.
Anyone else had this problem or has an advice on what I should do?
Thanks,
Nina
