Equium A60 - standby and Hibernate function does not

I have a Toshiba Equium (or Satellite) laptop A60 - bought in 2004.

The problem that I have with him, it is that the sleep feature is very + capricious. Times it usually works. At worst it's working only a small proportion of the time. Very bad moments it never works at all.

When startup fails I open the screen and the computer turn on, I hear the fan and hard drive, but the screen is just black display (although the backlight is on in the background).
Sometimes, the mouse pointer is visible at the center of a black screen Uni and at other times small forests of window are visible - but the screen is still black.
The computer is in a State of brain death, and I have to turn it off and restart to get it working again.

I've been through this forum looking for ideas and tried without notable success the following:
Disabling wake-up-on-LAN
* I have already installed the latest version of the BIOS.

I need to know how to solve this problem because my A60 is getting old and so it tends to become very hot if left running for a long period at a time.

The total number is A60 - PSA67E 00200D8J

I am running Windows XP is installed on original Toshiba drive - but with 5 years ' worth of Microsoft updates added on top. When I tried to reinstall the operation usually on the eve of the OS works, but by the time wherever I installed all the extras (drivers card wireless firewall, AV,...), it goes back to be unreliable again.

Thanks in advance for any help.

This means that after the installation of a new OS everything seems to work properly but after a short time the night before fails again one generally, this occurs when the laptop gets hot.
Is this good?

Hmm I think you should check if the high temperature does not affect the functionality of the laptop
This is perhaps the main reason for your question.
So I recommend to clean the vents and to remove dust using the jet of compressed air (you can get it from most computer resellers)

In very rare cases, it would be helpful to renew the thermal grease which is placed between the cooling module and CPU.
But this must be done ONLY by a mobile technician because the procedure of disassembly is really complicated.

Update the display driver too. This could help to resolve the problem with the black screen.

  • My copy and paste function does not work

    I've recently updated to Firefox 16.02 and everything worked fine for a while but last night out of the blue my copy / paste does not work anymore. As far as I know that I did something different. Paste my copy function still works in Chrome and IE.

    I have uninstalled/reinstalled Firefox and that did not solve the problem. As we speak, I run an analysis of the AV and also, I deleted the web cache and what not in Firefox. He ran in SafeMode... nothing seems to work!

    Interestingly, however, when I went to copy and paste the "Troubleshooting info" Clipboard here on this page it worked fine.

  • Satellite Pro A300 sleep and extended functions does not properly

    I have a new satellite Pro A300 PSAJ1E - 01E00VIT, and I find this problem:

    Sometimes (not always: maybe it depends on which program is running) in trying to put the computer to sleep or into hibernation, it does not stop, but only stop the monitor (Panel), while the fan goes on and the power light is green. Of course, a lot of energy consumption of battery!

    Then there is no other way to take off the computer by pressing the power button for a long time... but this is not correct!
    NB: my computer is always connected to a local network, and generally there are some browser windows open when I put it in stand-by mode.

    How can I fix?
    jomurray

    You must update the BIOS and must always close the programs and applications that ruin on the laptop before activating the standby mode or hibernation would be.

  • Keys - F2 and F3 function does not.

    I bought the laptop HP Pavilion n209TX 15 this year and key functions work properly. But later, on 10 may 2014, they do not work! I checked if there was a software through which he passed, but I did not install any type of software that may adversely affect the operation of the keys. I am really struggling with very low brightness. The last thing I did was - windows update - that installed the following software

    Microsoft Silverlight

    Furthermore, I installed HP Quick fix.

    Whenever I press F2 or F3, it shows just the cursor (it won't go up and down well) and when I click on the slider top, nothing happens again. I also tried to go to the brightness option in the Windows Mobility Center and tried to adjust the brightness - but nothing happens.

  • Copy and paste function does not

    Hello. I have a problem. I select the text, chrome, text messages from press the button copy, etc. but it won't stick, sometimes it works but 80% of the time it won't
    I recorded the process if I can attach a video? Thank you

    Looks like you're long by pressing the button. When you long press these buttons, it will show that what type of service there and so why you get the pop-up message with the text 'Copy' (this will not copy the text, URL etc.). If you for example want to copy a URL, you must only press the button copy and not tap it.

    Could you try once more but just tap the button to copy in place.

  • Date and time function does not work. Not randomly in harmony. Can edit manually only.

    Description of the problem: my time and date will not work correctly. I manually change the date and time in the date and time, however, it remains to these changes. It is constant and not sporadic.
    Operating system: Windows Vista Business

    Hello

    "I manually change the date and time in the date and time, however, it remains to these changes.

    This may mean that the changes until the system is restarted? If Yes, then the problem is a flat CMOS on the motherboard battery. This battery provides a power NET that the motherboard uses to maintain the time system and the BIOS settings when turned off. When she died, the motherboard back to the factory settings, including time.

    If the hour / date change so that time is running out, then it's a software problem. If the change is consistent, as always in 4-hour movement in one direction, then you must check your time zone and locale. If the time system just seems to slow down or jump around, you need to examine the software you have installed on the system as something running in the background (P2P, antivirus and distributed calculation programs are often delinquent).

  • Satellite L305D-S5895 - keys to functions and the wifi does not work with Win XP

    Hello

    first sorry for my English

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite l305d s5895, with Windows XP, I need a software, but the function keys does not work.
    So I need a driver, but I can't, and wireless internet does not work.

    > Where could it find special XP BIOS?
    In my opinion, there is problem because most threads here are on the European laptop models. then come to question United States. Toshiba Europe and Toshiba U.S. do not work together and each of them is responsible for own models and provide support for specific country notebooks models.

    For most models, so here in Europe Toshiba has offered two BIOS. We were already on the delivered Vista laptops. The Toshiba page download available BIOS for Windows XP Home edition. in most cases, it was version 5. XX and this BIOS was designed to support public services and specific tools of Toshiba. For example, all the FN key features was only available with this BIOS WXP.

    So if any of you have laptop model US they would see how the solution with Toshiba U.S. or US forum under http://community.compuserve.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?webtag=ws-laptop&redirCnt=1

    2. I can no longer drag my clips in and around the timeline, they are "stuck" in place.
    3. A clip with the audio and video are not bound when placed in the sequence. In the video drop-down, it is said that they are linked, but clips act otherwise.
    4. I can't right click on anything in my calendar.

    So here's the big problems I've met only a tooling around. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, with 2015.4 and 2015.3. I'm puzzled.

    Hi PatrickShelton,

    Sorry about your problem, try the following steps.

    Go to the following locations:

    1 location: In the Finder, click go > go to folder > ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe

    Situation 2: Go > go to folder > ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe

    Location 3: Documents > Adobe

    Everywhere, rename the folders 'Adobe' to 'OldAdobe '.

    Launch the first, accept the license agreement and see if it works.

    Note: You will lose your customized workspaces and keyboard shortcuts.

    Thank you
