    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

  • e7240 CONSTANT NOISE OF FAN NOISY / FAN RUNNING ALL THE TIME

    We received 2 nine E7240s directly from Dell, one for me and one for my colleague. As soon as I turned it on to build for my colleague, I noticed that the machine was overheating and the fan made a noise. Dell offers an upgrade of the BIOS that has not changed anything. They then changed the radiator, even once, that does not change and since then, they have changed the motherboard. My colleague went on vacation, so I don't know if the problem has been resolved, however, my laptop day you do not overheat (also of course as it has done for my colleague) BUT THE FAN RUNS ALL THE TIME. So much so that I think that the person in the room upstairs is using his hairdryer. Dell has replaced the heatsink of heat and the motherboard yesterday, I did the same update of the BIOS and the problem is even worse. As soon as I turn the thing, the fan runs all the time making a big noise. My predecessor was the E6500 and I was not bothered by noises, he did.

    The 7240 made so much noise that I want to throw it out the window , seriously, I go back to my old 5 years e6500, which is now very slow, I can not just take constant hair dryer of the fan noise! I'm waiting for Dell back to me, but I don't see what else they can do.

    I suspect a problem of design with newer models, someone with a laptop computer Latitude 13 also mentioned it on the Forum, someone else with an e7240 also said "I noticed the fan turns most of the time - it's quiet, but you don't know is spinning."  I just implemented, so the CPU is busy enough. "A person with the e6320 says"and the fan is noisy and turns far too often.

    I just bought a new Dell Latitude E7240 with Windows 7 laptop and had the same problem with overheating and the fan is running loudly all the time. I just fixed it on my laptop, it may not work for everyone but just in case I walked it here.

    The index for me was that the question has happened at home, not at work.

    • Using the Task Manager, I found that a "svchost.exe" process was always running at 25% of the CPU, i.e. to take 100% of one of the 4 hearts. For this you need view all processes, and that's why you need a local administrator account if she asks permission.
    • With right click on this process-online 'Go to services', you can study what services are hosted by this instance of svchost.
    • For each of these services, try to stop one at a time (if it helps) and see if the CPU usage goes down. For me, a clue was a service stuck on 'Stop' but never stopped.
    • The service which for me was the "HomeGroup provider." That's why the issue has happened at home and at work. The laptop had spotted my homegroup on my home network, but had not been able to accede. Maybe a problem with IPv6 that I could not turn on my desk.
    • In the Services tab in Task Manager, get on the service properties, which set to Disabled Startup Type.
    • Restart the laptop, to ensure that the service is stopped.

    That did the trick for me, and now the CPU remains less than 5% when idle. This isn't the problem that the fan is noisy when the CPU usage is high, but for me what rarely happens now.

    If you want to access files and printers on your home network without the homegroup feature, you can still do that the old way:

    • Network and sharing Center-Online avancΘs => Homegroup Connection-online 'use user accounts to connect to other computers.
    • Also in the settings advanced: enable discovery network. and Turn on File and Printer Sharing.
    • Then, you can click on your wifi network => add a printer.
    • If your office does not appear, click on "Not listed", then browse. As long as the network discovery and printer sharing are enabled, desktop PC should appear and you can connect using your local Windows user name and password.

    Hope this helps someone.

  • Firefox sometimes freezes my computer when I go to some sites for about 10 seconds and my hard drive is turned on all the time.

    This happened since I upgraded Firefox 3.6 Firefox 18 when it was released in the 23.0.1 that I have right now. When I go on some heavy such as yahoo news, browser specific websites and my computer will be blocked for about 10 seconds while my HDD is on all the time and the only info on: crashes gives me a link to a page called limitation, which apparently no longer exists. It happens that its manual or automatic cache on size and only seems to happen when its max cache. Depending on the subject: crashes, it happened only 4 times before I went from 3.6 to 18.

    Ive tried turning almost all my addons turned off and that did not work, Ive had harware acceleration turned off for a long time if it's not that. I still have all my plugins off except flash and it does not have anything to do with flash. The report of health of firefox it also count as an accident.

    I worked in fact observe that its almost always the comment system on the pages of Web sites such as disqus. IM blocking them just through them with ghostery and anti-ad element hider.

  • Satellite Pro A120 - fan run all the time

    OK, so this is a strange...

    I have a satellite Pro A120. It works with the fan on all the time and sometimes goes on a mayor go slowly (which I think can be reduced to overheating).

    Operating system is Ubuntu and I installed the tool of sensors that tell me about the minute the temperature is 100 degrees c and the next one is 16!

    I suspect that it is perhaps that the heat sink is full of fluff, but I can't find a guide step by step to dismantle the machine, clean it and put it back together again.

    Can anyone help with ideas or resources?

    Thank you very much

    Nathan

    Hello

    You do not need to disassemble the unit to clean the fans.
    You can use a jet of compressed air which helps to remove dust.
    I did it several times and it helped!

    Try it!

  • Satellite R630 - fan runs all the time

    Hello everyone,

    I have a Satellite R630, and I'm happy with it. But there is one thing that makes me angry... the fan! It runs ALL the time. I browse a little... the fan works. I work with the office, or something... the fan works. To clarify: the CPU is not used, there is no heavy processes running, and the Notebook\CPU is cool. There is no reason why the fan should work, all the laptops that I had before where calm in the same situations. Of course it is not a problem if it starts working if necessary (a game, looking for a HD video or something). But not without reason!

    Someone at - it a solution for this problem? A tool to fix the fan speed\intervals manually, or better: an update of the bios (in the version 1.4 and 1.5 I can choose what I want... the fan did not stop execution). It is also quiet in Linux or any other operating system.

    @Toshiba: (!) Please do something. The only solution for me right now is to return the laptop to the store. :-(

    Best regards
    Imk82

    Hello

    Hmm... If you have already installed the latest BIOS updates, you should check the cooling of Windows Power management settings. Generally you can switch between different methods of cooling as you can read here:

  • I want that the to-do bar to show all the time

    When I use MS Word on my Macbook (OS X El Capitan 10.11.3), and I'm going to full screen by pressing the green button, I do not see the taskbar (the thing that says "file, edit, view," etc.) at the top of the screen.  It's a real problem for me because I write in several languages and regularly switch between different keyboards. to change keyboards, you must click an icon in the taskbar. So to move from a keyboard English, German or Spanish when you type in the Word doc, I have to first, click on the green button to make the smallest word doc, change the keyboard by clicking on the change of keyboard icon on the taskbar (that's a flag US for American English) and then click on the green button to make the Word doc full screen. Here are the three steps instead of one. I want to have the taskbar visible even when the Word doc is completely open, or to spend sort button that controls change the keyboard to another location on the screen.  Can we do anything?  BTW, I'm very new to Mac (always PC user before two weeks ago) so I'm still a little confused.

    This is the menu bar. If you use the full screen then you cannot have show all the time.

    Just expand the window in the image of the screen and you can display the menu bar.

    Also, you don't have to leave it full screen to see the menu bar. Simply move the cursor to the top of the screen.

    Or, you can configure a shortcut in the keyboard system preferences to switch between input sources. By default, it was cmd-space, but who has been co-opted by Spotlight. You can set it to what is convenient and not used. Then, you won't have to go in the status menu.

  • Lenovo y50-70 WiFi reconnect all the time

    Hello world

    I use Lenovo y50-70 with processor i5 for two months. I'm just tired of trying to fix it myself this is why this post. My wi - fi is *. I upgraded my os to Windows 10 and had problem with 'limited connection', when you had to disconnect and reconnect it to work on the network. I tried many things, but lately I installed some new drivers and so far, this situation is back. But yet, there are some 'loss' connection, because when I try to play some mmo games, I get disconnected server, which I suppose is WiFi always had a problem with my laptop.

    HI, thx for the suggestion, but unfortunately it did not help. Maybe I'll clarify the situation. Internet high speed is very high, for example when I download a file, it goes up to 4/5 mbp/s, but the problem is with the stability of the connection. As I mentioned in my first post, it is impossible to play a multiplayer game, I get the broken link all the time in games such as Diablo 3, WoW, or now in the Division. I got all new drivers, my internet provider is UPC. There is no such problems, even with regard to the internet on the phone on the other laptop.

    Any other ideas please?

    Yes, but the problem as it involves a lot of troubleshooting steps. And given suggestions is one of the first check, you need to perform. Your problem is a limited number or abandon the connection. Check the compatibility of your router with your wireless card. The setting in the configuration of the card. Change the channel you are using. If you have 5 Ghz band try this out.

    I have this problem a few weeks ago and did what the technician of the isp is to just get the details of my modem (he is very interested to scribble information it receives) and declare that my router is to blame without a test at all. After that, he leaves and drop a service for an hour with his boss. After that, I discovered that the ISP is actually to reduce latency. There is actually nothing wrong at all in the installer than some hideous moving from my ISP.

    Hi Donna,.

    We will see if it is caused by something starting at startup or with some drivers.

    Try a boot minimum http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135.  If the problem goes away then it's just a matter of tracking down the culprit at the origin of the problem.   Follow the procedures described in the article.  Once found, remove, delete, disable or uninstall.  Once remember to put Vista in normal status, as described in the procedures. If the problem occurs in clean mode then just restore the system to normal and reboot - this solution will not work.

    Start in safe mode with network and see if the problem is here.  A result allows us to narrow down the search for the cause.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

    It seems that two things must happen... Three if you don't have good backups (it would be the first thing * if * you have not any outside of the machine.)

    (1) the material must be tested.  By restarting and pressing the combination of keys at the right time could test the hard/readers/speed control (CTRL + ALT + D, on a dell computer before starting at startup of Windows.)  For other tests - Dell probably put on a partition or sent a CD with the machine that allows you to perform a battery of tests on the... video, audio equipment, etc.

    (2) a restoration clean install a factory should probably be made * if * hardware testing are in agreement.  You could probably clean the machine by following the steps I'll give you - but knowing no more about the problem that we are so far... If that does not better... it's perception, or something so serious, that a clean install is probably the only real 'next step '.

    (And if the new facility does not solve it and analysis of material found nothing - that's the perception, or something (material) defective which is not be picked up).

    Search for malware:

    Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

    Remove anything they find. Reboot when necessary. (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)

    Search online with eSet Online Scanner.

You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

    Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

    -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
    -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
    -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
    -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
    -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
    -Click OK.
    -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
    -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.

    The wireless on my Aspire5535 is all the TIME, it goes out not when the wireless button is pressed, instead, I get a message on the screen "No. Wireless Device" even if there is a card physically installed. Press the bluetooth button, and the message is 'No Bluetooth Device'. I changed the Atheros card and installed newer drivers have also replaced the 'launch plug. I still get the same problem. The machine works well with a dongle, but I would use the USB port. Should I buy another wireless card instead of 'G' band go to a bunch of "N"? As there is no update of the Bios I can't do anything with the Bios, (thinking that it is may be damaged). Should I buy a Bios Chip?

    or someone has any ideas on how to solve my problem.

    Thank you for all your help and suggestions. I'll take the machine except maybe find the problem, but for now I'll stick to the dongle / eathernet, I usually at home, when to use the system of 'Home Plug' which I find better than the dongle. Once again thanks a lot for your help
