• iPhone 6 Plus the screen freezes after updating iOS 9.3.1

  I'm usually pretty lucky with the iOS updates, but as title the thread, just after the 9.3.1 update was on my iPhone 6, the touch screen now hangs at random times. I am a heavy user environment and this annoying screen freeze occurs at least twice a day, sometimes as much only 7 or 8 times with only hard buttons (home, power, volume) still operate. This never happened before the update, and the only issue is the soft reset option (home + power buttons). It is not only located in some applications, but it seems to be all that touch.

  This becomes a real pain in the neck, especially when you write an e-mail or a text message with no way to save what is already written by copy - paste, I need of course the touchscreen to do. Is anyone else facing the same issue after than the iOS put 9.3.1 to level, and are there possible, patches although I strongly suspect that it is a software problem that only Apple can sort with a patch update?

  Thank you.

  In my opinion I press my home button and wait for the blade to the turning off the option to display, then hold the button of your hold until turning the option off slider disappears. (This clears your cache).

• HP G62 laptop computer: laptop freezes after startup

  After starting my laptop freezes.  How long after starting varies.  Sometimes it will freeze after only a few minutes. Sometimes it can be operational for an hour or two.  Want to know how to fix this.

  Tested hard drive and the Long DST failed.  Has given an ID of the failure of QAGCHR-5GH847-XDOO3A-61AKO3.  Product ID is XHO66UA #ABA.

  Hello

  Error code 24 characters is a failure of the entire test (DST) disk Self and would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.  This is also consistent with the freezing issues you describe.

  If you want a guide on replacing the hard drive yourself, let me know.

  Kind regards

• Vista freezes after inactivity

  After my computer is slow it freezes and nothing works (mouse, keyboard, etc.).  The screen is gray in color with the circle of task while turning.  I put the power of never sleeping options. I also updated my screen saver 'white '.  I checked to see if there were new updates installed.  There are four security updates installed around the time I started to notice the problem. Should I try unistalling them? Do I need?  I built this computer about 2 months ago.  I am running Vista Home Premium (OEM). Any suggestions?

  Hello Christhegreek01,

  2. in the general tab, click Normal startup.
  3. When prompted, click on restart.

  Or try to be like the system restore if it does not work

  System restore points are created automatically when the following occur:

  • When you install a new application or driver.
  • When you uninstall or install some programs.
  • When you install new updates
  • Automatically on a daily interval
  • Manually by creating a.
  • If you choose to use system restore to restore to a previous restore point, System Restore creates a new restore point before you restore a previous state in case something goes wrong. If you are restoring to a previous state in Mode without failure, a restore point will create for the current state.

  So that the restoration of the system to work, you must have 300 MB of free space for each hard disk that monitors the system restore. System Restore will also use up to 15% of disk space on each disk that it monitors. That hard disk space runs out, older restore points will be deleted as newer ones. It is also important to note that you must be logged in as an administrator in order to use the system restore. Now that you understand the basics of the system restore, you must continue to the next section to learn how to use it.

  Restore Windows Vista to a previous state

  In the case of a problem on your computer that cannot be solved by normal means, you can restore your computer to a previous working state. To do this, you need to start restoring the system so that you can choose the restore point to restore. If you currently have Windows Vista boot problems, you can use the system restore in Windows recovery environment. Instructions on how to do it in this tutorial can be found: System Restore using the Windows Vista recovery environment.

  If you can connect to Windows Vista, you must follow these steps.

  1. Close and save any documents that you have opened.
  2. Click the Start button to open your Start Menu. The Start button looks like this:
  3. When the Start Menu open click on the menu option all programs.
  4. Click once on the Start Menu Accessories group.
  5. Click once on the System Tools Start Menu group.
  6. Click once on the icon of the system restore. After you click the icon, if a user account control window opens, click on the button continue.

  You will now be on the screen as shown below in Figure 1 system restore. From this screen, you can specify the restore point that you want to restore.

  1 screen of system restore

  By default, Vista will be already selected the restore recommended option. This restore point is one followed a new pilot program, or update has been installed. If you do not want to use this restore point, you can click on the button next to start the restore process. On the other hand, if there is a more recent restore point that you want to restore you should select choose a different restore point and press the next button. This will bring you to a screen, as shown in Figure 2, which contains a list of all available restore points that you can restore.

  2. the list of available restore points

  You must select the restore point that you want to restore, and then press the button next to start the restore process. Vista will display a window showing your selected restore point and asking you to confirm that it is that you want to restore.

  3. confirm the selected restore point

  If you want to select a different restore point, press the Back button. Otherwise, you can press the Cancel button to exit the system restore or the button finish to begin the restore process. If you have selected finish, Vista will display a second prompt asking you to confirm that you want to continue restoring.

  4. second Confirmation

  If you are sure you want to restore, then press the Yes button. Vista will now log you off the computer and start the system restore process, as shown in Figure 5 below.

  5. restoration of a restore point

  When the restore is complete, your computer will be restarted and when Vista starts it backup will be restored to its previous state. When you open a Vista session for the first time after the restore, you will see a message indicating that the restore was successful.

  6. system restore was successful

  If there are problems with your computer because the last restoration, you can return to your previous settings to ebb in the system restore utility and select Undo system restore by pressing the next button.

  7 undo the last system restore

  Your computer should now work correctly again.

  With the help of the restoration of the system in the Windows recovery environment

  Manual creation of Restore Points

  As mentioned previously, it is also possible to create manual restore depending on points. Some popular designs to create manual restore points are when you have your computer configured perfectly and I would save the State in case of problems in the future. To create a manual restore point, you must follow these steps:

  1. Click the Start button to open your Start Menu. The Start button looks like this:
  2. Click on the control panel menu option.
  3. Click the option menu system and Maintenance.
  4. Click on the system menu option.
  5. Click on the System Protection in the list on the left.

  You will now be at the System Protection tab in the system control panel. This tab allows you to enable and disable the system restore as well as making the new manual restore points.

  8. the System Protection tab

  To create a manual restore point, you must click on the button create. When you press this button a prompt asking you to give a title to this manual restore point.

  9. Enter the manual restore point title

  Type a title for the manual restore point and press the button create. Vista will now create a restore point manually and once finished, post a notice that it was created successfully.

  10. Manual restore point has been created

  Now that you have finished doing the manual restore point, you can close the system window.

  This should solve your problem.

  Let us know if these steps solve your problem.  I hope the information is useful.

  Kind regards

  Hi-

• Tap the screen freeze after ios 9.3.2 update

  Hello

  After the update my IOS 9.3.2,and my touch screen crashes constantly. It seems that something is happening in the background, it gets a bit and after a few clicks it freezes again.

  I'm desperate

  I have iphone 6plus

  Help, please

  Sometimes, which can be hardware or software. But since it seems to have only started after the update, it may have been a problem with the update process. If restarting the phone is not to improve things, follow this article: If you cannot update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  It is important that you back up your phone (How to back up your device using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support) before you perform these steps, and it is also important that you select "Update" instead of "Restore" when prompted. Not vital, but faster than the restoration and to reapply your backup.

  Best of luck and let know us if we can help more!

• New computer laptop freeze after power connection (there is a delay, not immediately)

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with my laptop Fujitsu Amilo Li 3710 newly purchased. When I plug the power while the computer is turned on, it would freeze completely (no movement of the cursor or keyboard) I put off and then back on to fix. Often, but not always.

  But I realized that this isn't an instant freeze, because the laptop starts to load and changes the brightness of the screen according to the Power Options before the frost. So I guess it's not a motherboard problem.

  I disabled the battery in the Device Manager if the system will not recognize AC battery operation, the problem disappeared. But it won't let me see the remaining battery charge.

  My installation of Windows is fully updated. It's the SP2 of Vista Ultimate x 64.

  What can we do?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Thank you for your answer, but I'm sure this isn't a hardware problem because I think I found the culprit who is "State of the PCI Express link" in Power Options that should be set to OFF.
  In addition, the laptop NOT Batt-AC swtich successfully, but when he FOLLOWS the rules Power Options, it freezes.

  Scenario:
  Charger plugged in,
  Battery charges,
  Changes in screen brightness,
  Gel.

  If it's a hardware problem, he would certainly like:
  Charger plugged in,
  FREEZE (as the power glitch will take effect so little time before dealing with the brightness etc...)

  Again, so far, the "State of the PCI Express link" seems have solved the problem.

  Any other explanation or the info is welcome from all over the world.

• Qosmio G10 134: the screen freezes after repair

  Hello

  Earlier my Qosmio G10 had to be repaired because of the vertical-bars-in-screen-and-broke-down-videocard-problem. They gave me a new motherboard and Nvidia Go 6600 and the problem was solved. I hoped... Because then I couldn't not to use the graphics card for more than 5 minutes.

  When I start playing a game, or so it takes 5, maybe 10 minutes in mind for my screen to freeze. Then precious is unresponsive to anything, even to the Microsoft-Magic-Combination-Ctrl-Alt-Del. very annoying to say the least... Does this sound familiar to anyone?

  Hello

  I agree with the agramer. It is possible to s that you got different but better graphics card. On this page, I read that some users who repaired the laptop got a different card because the original of the delivered graphics card was off live.

  In this case, you should check your device for details of the map Manager and if necessary, you must install the right graphics card driver.
