Computer suddenly sucks memory and does not release it

• Computer shuts down unexpectedly and does not start

  I have a gateway NV52 running windows vista Home premium 64-bit.
  It is about four years old.

  Lately, I'll work on something, and the computer turns off without any warning. If not off, but just completely turn off as if it was a desktop computer and someone he disconnected.

  The last time he does, when I tried to put it back to it gave me a blue screen. Time thereafter, it gave me an error message saying 'Windows failed to load correctly' and gave me the ability to "repair windows" or "start windows normally". When you select the option the computer immediately turns off again.

  After about three hours, I tried to start again and got the same error screen. I chose "repair windows" once again, and launched a sort of auto repair program. After some time, he said it was over and I have to restart my computer. I rebooted and was able to boot up properly.

  I'm not sure that the problem has been corrected, because other than the unexpected interruptions, there was no sign of distress beforehand. My computer was working normally, and there is no virus/malware/etc.

  Hello Colin P.

  Generally, a system shutdown complete is the result of a hardware such as feeding problems, overheating or other material failed the system. Just to check that it is malicious not associated, run a complete virus scan on the system. If the system continues to stop, then I suggest you call the manufacture of equipment and ask them to help you run hardware diagnostics.

• Satellite U305-S7432 freezes and does not sometimes using Win XP

  Hello.

  I have a portable Satellite U305-S7432.
  Initially, it came with Vista, but I reformatted with XP Pro. I have installed all updates up to service pack 3.

  My problem is that sometimes when I try to restart the computer, simply, it freezes and does not meet any entry. I noticed that this happens if I close and then open the cover (which means that the computer goes mode sleep entry and returns).

  Please note that the splash screen works perfectly well and the computer wakes from sleep fine but then when I try to restart, the computer will simply spend time instead of restart.

  If it goes into sleep mode, reboot takes place as planned.

  I installed all the drivers and there is no question mark in Device Manager. I've updated the latest chipset from Intel (for the mobile 965) driver as well. Finally, I also tried to add /forceresetreg my Boot.ini file (as suggested: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822624) but nothing helps.

  Any ideas?

  It is a series of laptop computers Toshiba us and you should check the Toshiba driver page for available drivers:
  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/Su/su_sc_home.jsp

  If you will not find XP drivers for this page, then you can try to install unique drivers for Sat U300 since European Toshiba page but I not quite sure if these drivers XP will work on you Sat U305 Mr. but it s worth a try!

  Good luck

• I try to install vista on a computer running xp. XP does not even recognize the vista disc is in the drive. XP recognizes any other drive that I use and the vista drive is recognized on other computers, that I put it in it's not a prob with the disk or cd

  I try to install vista on a computer running xp. XP does not even recognize the vista disc is in the drive. XP recognizes any other drive that I use and the vista drive is recognized on other computers, that I put it in it's not a prob with the disk or cd rom

  The Vista installation disc is a DVD. Apparently, you don't have a DVD player. You would need to purchase/install a DVD-ROM or DVD - RW to install Vista. Are you sure that your hardware supports Vista before doing this?

  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/get/system-requirements.aspx
  Even if a minimum of 1 GB, the requirements in the real world Vista requires a minimum of 2 GB of RAM to run without problem. You will also need Vista drivers for all your hardware.

  I have a laptop E1 571 and have been using it with win 10 since its release, had minor problems, but the day of Christmas (from everyday) my hard drive started to make beep sounds and load, only to start menu screen but the hd does not!

  Photo of the scene, taking pictures of the fam on Christmas day and need to load them onto my laptop so I continue to put my mem stick in laptop, copy photos anywhere on disk, but by the time finished my laptop decided to crash. I rebooted it without any problem, but the laptop moved it crashed again and did not the acer logo screen, before you tell me, I have a pxe - e61 media test failure blah blah blah (this is after I have F2ed the hell out of it and changed to the legacy bios.)

  I tried to see if the hard drive would work on my pc, but it made the same beep and does not appear in 'my computer '.

  Do I need a new hard drive or I can solve this problem by using backup/restore discs? I will need to buy or download Acer?

  Hello I have an xp pro, sp3, the dell dimension 2400. IE 8 for the internet.  I use McAfee through my SP which is AT & T. Windows Office suspended and does not, online or off the power. I have to use the task mgr constantly to "shake up" windows start and sometimes, it doesn't work anymore and I have to restart.

  I have used all sorts of anti-virus programs and can ensure that it is NOT a virus. It is not my regestry, all updates are current. I keep a clean machine.

  I have xp of the process and have nothing wrong.

  Sometimes my icons will disappear out of my office, but always come right away. Other times, I get a message that says stop running this script. a script on this page slows down IE run slowly. It is for the most part on Face Book, BUT sometimes also on other sites, like google mail. Yahoo mail, groups and news.

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  The image (it back up to an external drive as full image) and reinstall Windows XP, update, drivers and everything.  Install any plugins that you NEED to do all that you see here that the bat hurt.  If the problem no longer exists, something has gone wrong with your system from before (corrupt files or your cleaning is not as complete as you think) and if the problem persists - probably something to do with the material. In all cases, you can return to the image if you wish.

  To the extent wherever it is the registry, I must ask, * how * you have come to this conclusion?  Not that I'm defending something - I was wondering what you did to decide who is not your registry database?  (Side: I agree with you.)

  That's what * I * would call cleaning and optimization of a Windows XP machine:

  Search for malware:

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

  • MalwareBytes (FREE)
  • SuperAntiSpyware (FREE)

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

  Search online with eSet Online Scanner.

  The less you have to run all the time, most things you want to run will perform:

  Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in. Look for whatever it is you do not know using Google (or ask here.) 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 download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory. This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

  Do a house cleaning and the dust of this hard drive:

  You can free up disk space (will also help get rid of the things that you do not use) through the following steps:

  Windows XP should take between 4.5 and 9 GB * with * an Office suite, editing Photo software, alternative Internet browser (s), various Internet plugins and a host of other things installed.

  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.

  You can use an application that scans your system for the log files and temporary files and use it to get rid of those who:

  Hello Arturomaduro,

  By "stack" I assume you mean that the CD/DVD is 'stuck' in the player and you cannot get the drive to open it? The most important thing right now is to get the DVD from the drive. You have two options.

  1 / restart your PC and press the eject button on the CD/DVD drive to see if the drive open and release the CD/DVD. Normally, this should do the trick.

  2 / if my first option does not release the disc caddy, you will need a large paperclip and bend straight. Take a look at the front of your DVD drive and you should see a small hole. This is usually placed near the eject button. Make sure that your PC is off and you have removed the plug from the socket. Now insert the straigtened paper clip into the hole and the 'push' the draw caddy should now begin to open (or open completely). If it opens only paritally, then gently pull the draw caddy until it opens completely and then remove the CD/DVD. After removing the CD/DVD push the caddy draw lots to close. Be sure to gently push to clear the draw caddy.

  Maybe it's just a unique and the player will operate normally afterwards. If she keeps refusing to eject a CD/DVD, there may be something wrong with the CD/DVD unit itself.
