Email AOL hangs after 30 minutes.

I use Windows XP with a router. Recently changed modem where the same problem occurred. The computer works fine on all programs and surf the internet is fine. But AOL freezes after 30 minutes.

Any help gratefully received.    The computer has been carefully checked for bugs / viruses and has all the relevant updates IE.

Thank you

What version of AOL are you using?  What antivirus do you use?  You have Service Pack 3 for Windows XP is installed?

Have you tried asking in the AOL support forums? http://help.AOL.com/help/microsites/microsite.do

  • Computer HP laptop G56 - freezes after 5 minutes

    Hello

    My sons laptop hangs after 5 minutes operation.

    The fan was noisey so I replaced in fear of overheating.

    Also, I got out of the State of the check box in the recovery menu.

    However the cell blocks after 5 minutes operation.

    I tried a disk check planning but again once the laptop freezes before it can fill.

    Is this likely to be a problem of disk or memory, or overheating?

    Any help would be great - thanks

    Hi David,

    Your laptop is listed as coming with a 250 GB hard drive, but you can also easily install a 500 GB HARD drive if you want a little more space - readers at the following links are examples that would be perfect for your laptop.

    250 GB hard drive.

    Hard drive 500 GB

    The procedure to replace the hard drive begins on Page 37 of your & Maintenance Guide.

    ************************************

    About reinstalling Windows 7 on new HARD drive, there are two options - I tend to prefer the second option wouldn't it because it costs nothing

    1. you can order a set of replacement recovery disks using the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  They will also recreate all of the original scores, including the recovery Partition.  The cost varies a bit depending on where you live, but they are generally inexpensive.

    Order HP recovery disks.

    2 another option that you might consider is to create your own Windows 7 installation disc.

    Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

    An example of a COA label can be seen here.

    You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( this must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - it is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.  The Image comes from a very respected source (Digital River).

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

  • System hangs for a minute when sending emails in Windows Mail.

    Original title: Windows Mail problem.

    Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    Ideas:

    • When I try and create e-mail or reply to a message, the system hangs for a minute before moving forward
    • Error messages - if you try and press the button create again, he says not responding do not
    • Recent changes made to your computer - no recent changes
    • What you have already tried to fix the problem - nothing
    Ensure that Avast is not set to analyze them.  That happens for every email or only the first message that you create?  Responses take longer?  You have a large list of contacts or a large number of fonts installed?  Both of these can slow down WinMail.
     
    In addition, after the removal of Norton, you must set the mail settings for the account, so its best to remove the e-mail account, close and reopen WinMail, and then add it again.
     
    Steve
     

    I got rid of Norton and actually put on Avast anti virus lately. As I said when I hit Create Mail I get a message saying "windows mail does not" and then after about 45 seconds it comes up and I can send emails. I used this Windows Mail utility (www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/) to compact and repair the database and it has not changed much.

  • Satellite M70-160: chart hangs after a few minutes of play

    I recently bought a laptop from toshiba M70-160. I am happy with the technical characteristics and specifications of the system.

    My laptop has 2.0 sonoma Pentium M Centrino, 512 MB of DDR2 RAM and 256 MB ATI MOBILITY RADEON X 700 graphics card.
    I'm using the latest drivers to display on the Toshiba site. However, for example in Age of Empires III, NFS Most Wanted, GTA San Andreas and Civilization IV my grave graphics card down and crashes until I have reset my laptop.

    When I install the ATI mobility catalyst 6.1 driver it crashes again, but this time by displaying a message on VPU recover (as the graphics card no longer). Sometimes after 5 minutes of gameplay.

    Sometimes it crashes after 10 minutes or more even that I have reduce the graphics settings in the game. How can we solve this problem?

    Thank you very much...

    Hello

    Toshiba recommends to use the driver of Toshiba graphics due to overheating problems.
    Toshiba drivers are little different than the driver graphic original manufacturer s. Toshiba drivers include thermal protection and control the performance of the graphics card. This is important because the laptop cards graphics don t have own cooling as graphics cards office module.

    Well, you can try using the graphics driver omega but at your own risk

  • 16 Firefox hangs for a minute to access some Web pages, I think that they all use Flash

    I installed Firefox 16.0.1 yesterday. I was running 15 earlier in the day and it was fine. However, 16 FF started suddenly hanging for about a minute when I try to access some Web sites. It thaws fine after this minute, no crashes or anything like that, but it is very irritating. From what I can tell, it seems to do this on pages that use Flash. I have the latest version installed, and it made no difference. I tried downgrading to 15 FF and it's always the same. Anyone know what is happening?
    Thank you

  • Satellite X 200 freezes after 15 minutes of inactivity

    I'm tired of this problem: my laptop freezes after 15 minutes of inactivity and I can get it going again to reset. The problem was solved when I reinstall Vista, but after several months my laptop started hanging up. And my laptop is unable to install Tempro 2.0.3.

    Please, help me to solve this problem and I don't want to reinstall Vista again.

    Hello

    For me it sounds like that a 3rd party software application or is causing this problem because you wrote that after Vista reinstall, the problem has been resolved.

    I put t know this software you have installed, but you need to remove all unnecessary applications as shareware or trial versions.
    Then use CCleaner to clean the registry.
    Visit the Windows update website and install all the updates that are available for your Windows.

    In the worst case, you will need to reinstall Vista again. In my opinion a reinstall from time to time is normal and I have reinstall my laptop every year. So I often have good performance.

  • Windows live family safety makes the network/internet connection hang at 6 + minutes at startup

    When starting the laptop, the system hangs and does not connect to the internet for another 6 minutes after it starts.  Programs such as MS office Internet will work, while wait us... and wait...

    After 6 minutes it just connects and runs normally without assistance.

    I have found no other mention of this on the web than this thread.  Can anyone tell if there is a solution?

    This happened for several months, but has only been bought to my attention by my niece, who, at the age of 12, all machines take 8.5 minutes to start to work!  I guess that there is a bug in an update somewhere causing this as it was working fine when I initially installed and set up the machine.

    Thank you very much
