Equium A100-338 has started to go very slow after using the recovery CD

I used the recovery CD after my Equium A100-338 has started to go very slow, it still seems slower than it used to be.
I haven't added anything to the computer from the CD recovery and verified the Manager tasks to see if I could spot anything suspicious.

Statistics say, use 18-22% CPU, but the physical memory is about 68% is this normal or should it be less?

Is there a list of standard processes I can check against mine to see if its doing something, it shouldn't be?

Thank you

Hello

I think you feel that unity is a bit slow due to the high amount of different processes that run in the context of the BONE.

The fact is that your laptop supports various features such as buttons FN, Toshiba control buttons, etc.
All this has needs drivers.

In addition, as I m not wrong the Norton Internet Security has been installed on your system.
It s part of the image of Toshiba and this tool could affect the performance of the system.

I have used in the past, but now changed to another application that doesn t need a lot of material resources.

So if you want you can disable or delete some of the tools and utilities that are not important to you and could clean the system using a 3rd third party tool called CCleaner

    Safari is extremely slow after downloading the latest IOS on my MacBook Pro. Can we do anything?

    It was very fast.

    IOS is not running on a MacBook Pro. Do you mean that you went to El Capitan?

If Safari works as expected, then remove your installed Safari extensions. Restart Safari normally and add your extensions one by one until the slow back.

  • NTLDR is missing after using the recovery disc - Satellite A100-493

    Hello

    I come from Germany and I have a Toshiba Satellite Notebook, which I bought new in 2006.

    After nearly three years, he started showing problems and slow, so I backed up my files and inserted the "Product recovery" CD that came with the laptop. I followed the Instructions and it began to unwind. After that about 1%, it displays a short Error Message, which I was not able to write down again and stops.

    When I restart the computer says ist «NTLDR is missing, press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart» When I do that it shows me the same "NTLDR is missing" Message, no matter how many times I reboot the thing.

    I tried to redo the whole fotmatting, but it always comes out the same way. What di - I do?

    G Demolidor

    It's very strange. If the recovery disk is not damaged the only reason for interruption of the installation may be faulty HARD drive or some problem there.
    If possible, try to get Microsoft WXP CD facilities and try to install Windows XP Home edition.

    Please let us know if the installation completes without any problems.

  • After using the recovery CD, it has only the C: drive

    I had to use the product recovery on my laptop as nothing else to do because of the faulty program, I tried o install. Before, I used to have 2 hard drives: Vista (c) and Win Re (if I remember correctly). After recovering, there is only the left C: drive. I wonder if this means that there is something wrong with my laptop after the recovery of the product.

    Hello

    concern for Don t, that means nothing. Your system works correctly? Yes? Okay, so just Don t ask the partition and be happy that everything works well.
    Moreover, sometimes preinstalled HDD´s can be configured differently and then after having recovered manually, but this is normal and shouldn´t confuse you.

  • Equium A100-338 display has stopped working

    Hello

    I have exactly the same problem on my Equium A100-338 loaded with Vista.
    The display has stopped working (he went to a poorly lit black screen) after I had rebooted my machine even if the computer and the hard drive seems to work Ok with the lights on. I tried the usual elimination of power and the battery and restart it tricks, but after initial success it has stopped working after a few weeks.

    Once I had the computer operation that I only closed it down in the mode 'sleep', and he continued to work for a month until that he should be released after a windows update. I then plugged an external display and use of the Fn + F5 key got the external display running.
    Low and behold, the screen of the laptop started working again as if it had been "energised".

    I took what the laptop screen was OK and that he would not need replacement.
    The laptop worked OK until it needed to restart another when the unrest started again. The screens are gray on the monitor and the laptop now.

    These problems seem to point to a flaw in the display driver or VGA card, have you received updates or suggestions?
    Now, I bought another laptop Toshiba Satellite to connect to the forums trying to find out if my original computer can be repaired
    These problems seem to be quite common on Toshiba computers.

    Any help members would be welcome.

    > These problems seem to point to a flaw in the display driver or VGA card, have you received updates or suggestions?
    For the most part a graphics card driver must be reinstalled or updated to a newer version it can also be a problem of OS which means that the new facility could help

  • Equium A100-338 - Missing recovery Toshiba in the menu Wizard

    I have a Toshiba Equium A100-338 I need recovery to factory settings.
    I know I have to press f8 and go to the Toshiba Recovery Wizard.

    My problem is that this option is missing and has been replaced by 'Restore the whole Windows operating system'. When I click on this option, I get a generic message, saying that I have to restore from a restore CD.

    My question is, is it possible to manually start the recovery in the command prompt? The wizard needs to run a program. All I have to do is find this program. I know that I have the recovery partition (I used Ubuntu to recover files of the user, and should it upward).

    Hello

    Just a simple question: If you have problems to start the HARD drive recovery, why you n t use the Toshiba Recovery disk?

    It can also restore settings from the factory with all the drivers and tools, so it of the same wait it erases the entire HARD disk.

  • Equium A100-338 - battery power problem

    Hello

    My daughter has an Equium A100-338 bought England under Vista Home Premium 15 months ago. He has recently developed a problem with the battery life, which in theory should mean the replacement of the battery, but I'm not so sure!

    The battery quickly descends to say 80% 6 minutes remaining, about 20 minutes after a full charge. Then put it in charge that it retrieves to 100% in about 20 minutes. The notebook gets rather warm below, but I think it's probably normal, that old equium of my other daughter gets warm anyway.

    Someone has encountered this problem, or is it just that he needs a new battery? I would have thought that it would have lasted longer, the other Equium battery is still going strong and is one year more!

    Thank you
    Dave

    Hello

    Hmm I think that you battery is not dead and can be used much longer than you think.

    I see that you have Vista on your laptop. This OS needs more resources for laptop as the Win XP for example. This would mean that laptops preinstalled Vista would be shorter on the battery as the laptop with Windows XP.

    Finally, and especially the battery working time is highly dependent on the use of the laptop.
    If you play games or watch movies DVD battery discharges faster.

  • Equium A100-338 - do I have to buy a recovery disk?

    Hello

    I have a bit of a dilemma. Vista on my Toshiba Equium A100-338 sticker is worn (was like that when I bought it). I upgraded my hard drive, installed Windows 7, then gave my old one (forget were the top recovery partition). I want to sell the laptop so back to its original State would be ideal.

    Toshiba said that I have to buy a drive for recovery for 29.90, which is ridiculous. Can someone help me?

    Details of the laptop: Toshiba Equium A100-338 PSAAQE-006008AV

    See you soon

    Hello!

    If you want to return factory settings as in the first start of the laptop, you can buy a Toshiba Recovery disk. This disc contains a picture of the factory settings, and so you can install the laptop in minutes with all Toshiba drivers and tools.

    But I put t understand why it is ridiculous for you. I mean normally get you on laptop Toshiba with Vista after the first start a message that you must burn the recovery disc yourself. It takes 10 minutes and you need only one or two DVD discs. I did it on my Toshiba laptop and I think you should take 10 minutes of your time to do this too.

    However, nobody says you have to buy the drive because you can also use a disc of Microsoft and download Toshiba stuff on the Toshiba page but you need so much more time.

    Good bye

  • Equium A100-338, replacing the hard drive

    Hi, the hard drive from my Toshiba Equium A100-338 just broke down on me, and now I think to replace. Because I'm not good material, I thought I have ask for advice about it here first. Is this an easy repair that can be done on your own? If so, how can I know if my computer match which new hard drive? I know that I need a 2.5 inch Sata-150 and all that, but I'm not sure of the compatibility.

    In addition, it is worth the money to make repairs like this on such an old computer? I wouldn't throw it out when everything else seems to work very well.

    Hello

    In the Toshiba forum you will find here with some nice instructions how to replace a HARD drive on the different laptop models.
    I found a movie that explains how do on Satellite A200.

    Replacing the HARD drive is not very delicate, and the process is similar for all models of laptops.

  • Equium A100-338 - Flash memory card does not

    Whenever I have close World of Warcraft, something appears in the upper left corner (looks like it must be a window but only on bar showing) which reads "Toshiba Flash Card (not answer). What can I do to prevent this?

    Im sure he appears during the game as well as I hear a ringing sound.

    I have an Equium A100-338.

    Thanks for any help!

    Hello

    a solution may be turning off the flash card service if Don t you need your USB.

    You can disable it by following these steps:

    -Go to start-> settings-> Control Panel-> administration-> Services tools

    -Make a right click on 'Smart Card' and left click on "Properties".

    -In the window who pop´s you must stop the service and disable it with the "Disabled" choice to the option "Startup Type".

    After that, your flash drive service is disabled and that you won´t get that annoying more errormessage.
