Your Comments/Opinions

'I have only one problem with my Toshiba Qosmio, it won't reboot! Every time I install some software the Qosmio begins to shut down and then hangs. Now i've had this problem on many computers in the past and it's usually caused by some software or hardware that I have installed, so i did a quick format on the hard drive and reinstalled the system using the Toshiba recovery disk. As soon as I had re-installed everything I tried to reboot, and got the same problem. I contacted Toshiba support and they were unable to help me, so if anyone can tell me how to get the qosmio to reboot I would really appreciate it. I am tempted to install linux but i just don't think i stand a chance getting the qosmios multimedia hardware to work with it!'
