Equium M40 simply stopped working without warning - do not power led.

My laptop is almost 2 years old and while you browse using the battery it just died without warning.
Put it on the sector but no orange at all.

I have no power in the machine at all.
Its dead as a dodo. My main concern is to get the info off the hard drive.

Any ideas of how I could do this? What could be bad, the motherboard or disk hard drive itself.

Thank you, Lorraine

Hello

If it's not nice that your machine was throwing the towel, but after your description, I think it would be worthy to check if the adapter still works.

It should not be the motherboard because sometimes just the AC adapter is giving up. And regarding your files on the disk do HARD just after:

Go to an electronic market, buy an USB-drive HARD-external enclosure for IDE drives with 2.5 form factor "(portable hdd´s) and put your laptop hard drive in this case."
Voila, now you can back up your files on another computer.

If you have any questions, just ask.

Welcome them

  • my iphone 6 more simply stopped working and no solution yet

    Today my iphone 6 it simply stopped working today.  I have tried every fix posted to solve this and nothing.  Held the House and buttons on/standby for 10 seconds, then press /wake of sleep for 3 seconds before also hold the home - plugged button on the computer and I tried to restore using itunes - all without success.  It will literally stop just with 42% charge left on it.  What would you recommend?  My phone is important for my work. Just get a new one?

    Try recovery Mode:

    Connect your device to your computer and open iTunes.

    When your device is connected, force restart it: press and hold the sleep/wake and home for at least 10 seconds, and only release when you see the Apple logo.

    Keep now until see you the recovery mode screen and wait that he eat.

    You may need to do the above, more than once as recovery mode is difficult to enter.

    Restore first as New and test. Then restore backup if you wish. If the backup is corrupt it will probably bring back the question.

  • Satellite Pro started to stop abruptly without warning

    Hello

    Can someone advise me, I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop, it is around the age of 13 months, and he began to stop abruptly without warning.
    It seems to be when I run high processor applications.

    I have 3 questions,

    (1) it is first of all, this laptop will always be covered by the warranty, even if he is 13 months old?

    (2) is it a simple fix for this problem of overheating?

    (3) I looked online and it seems to be a very common problem with Toshiba laptops, has there been a recall on all models?

    Thanks for any help you can give me?

    > 1) the first is, this laptop will always be covered by the warranty, even if he is 13 months old?
    Standard warranty covers portable duration 12 months. If you didn t buy additional coverage then the manufacturer's warranty no longer valid.
    But in my country, the dealer covers the portable 24 months long then maybe you should ask your dealer for info.

    (> 2) is there a simple fix for this problem of overheating?
    Well, the temperature could be higher because of the dust and debris inside the cooling rack.
    You could possibly solve this cleaning fans and cooling grids. I use the jet of compressed air. This could help you as it helped me

    (> 3) I looked online and it seems to be a very common problem with Toshiba laptops, has there been a recall on all models?
    This isn't a problem common with Toshiba notebook but unusual for all series of laptops from all brands.
    After a while the debris may clog the cooling system because the cooling fans are always placed at the bottom of the unit.
    It is advisable to clean the fans from time to time to ensure good air circulation.

  • Acrobat 6 Pro - simply stopped working!

    My Acrobat 6 Pro software has simply stopped working a few days ago which means I click the icon, the Welcome screen appears and then everything freezes.

    I tried power on / off a couple of times and closing everything down. Then I did a uninstall reinstall of my original disc. Nothing happens. In desperation, I downloaded the free software Acrobat reader, but of course, this is only useful for reading PDF files.

    A technical friend suggested that this could be caused by a conflict with one of auto it updated Windows (which, of course, is too late to do anything now). He also said that when I uninstalled using the Windows Control Panel, he could not have really cleaned all of the existing Acrobat files and only so I could try to find a program that performs this function.

    Helpppppppppppppppp!

    I suggest that you try a repair on Acrobat (Control Panel > add and remove programs). If MS missed something, the repair can repair.

  • Photo screensaver visiting mysteriously stopped working and I can not even do a system restore

    The screen saver picture in Vista has worked flawlessly since last two or three years. Last month, he simply stops working after 5-10 minutes. I tried all the fixes I've seen on the forum. None of them have worked. Also, I tried two restores system to an earlier time when it worked well, and both times the system restore has not been completed due to a mysterious error in the process. Anyone has any ideas on either of these problems? Thanks in advance for your help.

    Salvation History Buff.

    Step 1

    Delete the video files in the folder that you use for the photo screen saver. Check if all files are empty.

    Step 2

  • Stopped working without explanation

    I use Dreamweaver 8 on windows 10 platform. This is a new program for me because I had been using DW4 until recently.

    Unfortunately this thing stops working very shortly after starting work. I wouldn't exactly call it an accident that nothing freezes, and it will allow me to close the program.

    I heard that in view of what is called Web Companionthis problem. However, I rubbed my box until it is shiny and companion Web does not exist or else no matter what malware.

    So the question is what is the problem and how can I fixit?

    Hello

    Dreamweaver 8 is a very old version and may not be compatible with windows 10, (probably isn't).

    You could try running it in compatibility, or using a virtual machine mode running windows XP or 7.

    ===========================================

    Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
    It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.
