Equium M40X - Post start-up process is slow

• 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

• Equium M40X: I get to the banner of Toshiba, but Windows does not start

  When I start my 2 year old Toshiba Satellite M40X, I get to the banner of Toshiba, but Windows does not start. I tried using the recovery CD and it does not either.

  Any suggestions as to what could be the problem?

  Hello

  What do you mean with the banner of Toshiba? Did you mean the Toshiba splash screen that appears at the begging of the boot?

  Equium M40X successfully passed this screen?

  If the laptop is unable to switch to the home Toshiba screen then I presume that the BIOS has detected a hardware problem.
  In this case primarily the motherboard fails

  But if the laptop is able to spend the Toshiba start screen, the motherboard must be ok and only a 3rd device malfunction as HARD drive could cause this problem.

• Two problems with my Equium M40X

  Hello

  Today, I've suffered two problems, earlier, that the computer refused to wake... I have posted before I have an Equium M40X and so I have no restart button. His arrival on a desk where the computer would not come out of sleep... so I had to pick it up, then remove the battery... While power is still.

  Then later the DVD/RAM started weird noises when I put a CD and she underwent a complete block place... same procedure applied. Only this time the battery does not recharge after such a unorthodox procedure... is this normal? I mean remove the battery in a way...

  Hi Jamie,

  The usual way of "forcing" a notebook of power off is to hold down the power button for 5 seconds. This causes the system to power down and then you can just turn it on normally.

  Kind regards

• Equium M40X: Cannot print - not done. Print Spooler service does not

  My notebook Equium M40X has suddenly decided to stop from allowing me to print, gives me the message "operation was not completed. "print spooler service does not. I get this message even when you try to install the original installed printer drivers.

  To resolve this problem, I went to the services.msc to attempt to start the print spooler, but the command is not here present and seems to be missing. I also tried to launch it by clicking Start and then run and typing "net start spooler", but even once, it does not. Can anyone help with this?

  My laptop is an Equium M40X and the operating system is Windows XP Service Pack 2.

  Hello

  This error occurs because the spooler service has not been started or has stopped working.
  It seems that this error is known to Microsoft and they decided to public an article in the knowledge base that could help solve this problem.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314876

  As you say that the spooler service must be restarted.
  To start the spooler service, follow these steps:
  1. click on start and then click Control Panel.
  2. double-click Administrative Tools and then click Services.
  3. double-click on the Printer Spooler service and then change the startup type to automatic. This option sets the spooler service starts automatically when you restart the computer.
  4. If you want to start the spooler service immediately, click the Start button under the Service status field

  If you will not be able to restart the spooler service, you can try to restore the Windows operating system to the point initially by using the Windows System Restore tool.

• Equium M40X specification information required

  Hello
  I hope that there is someone on the forum who can help me.

  I have a satellite M40X Toxhiba.
  I spent several hours on the Toshiba site this morning trying to find the specifications of this model.
  Unfortunately my laptop broke down.

  I was told that the motherboard is cracked and I can access is no longer at the computer.
  I do not have a note card and none of my writings gives this information.
  It's a computer 15 "laptop with CD/DVD player, Intel Centrino, SRS Trusound, Microsoft XP.

  I need to know the size of the memory and RAM and anything else if you think relevant.
  Thank you very much. Issyb

  Hello

  There are many different models of Equium M40X.
  Numbers so much more would be needed to determine what components are installed.

  Usually, the model number should be placed at the bottom of the unit.

• What is the order of the removal of the songs to an iPod Classic syncing > somehow my laptop has started the process of synchronization without my knowledge and removed approximately 2,000 songs of my iPod classic.  How can I identify which were delete

  What is the order of the removal of the songs to an iPod Classic syncing > somehow my laptop has started the process of synchronization without my knowledge and removed approximately 2,000 songs of my iPod classic.  How can I identify which were deleted songs?  I always manually move files to prevent this.  I'm on Windows 10.

  Has no way to know that...

  If your library iTunes music fits on the storage space of 160 GB of your iPod classic, you just set to automatically sync your entire library of music.  Then, it won't matter which has been removed and which do not get deleted, because your iPod music library is the same as your library iTunes music.  And iTunes it keeps this way, every time your iPod connection (or click sync , if already connected).

  If you don't want "everything" in your iTunes library on your iPod (understandable), you can create a playlist in your iTunes library with all the songs you want on the iPod.  Then, set to automatically synchronize the playlist to iPod.  Instead of manually managing iPod, you manually manage playlist in your iTunes library.  The iPod has no need to be connected.  The next time you connect the iPod (or click sync , if already connected), iTunes will update the iPod with the same changes.  The big advantage is, if something happens like what you describe, or needs to restore iPod (erased) or even if break you your iPod (and get a new), need you a few mouse clicks to solve the problem.  Just set it up to sync the same playlist once again, which exists in your library iTunes (not only on the iPod).

  You can post back for more information about how to use automatic synchronization to do what you want more easily, go ahead.

• Equium M40X does not work properly after upgrading the BIOS

  OK, well... I'm not a computer scientist, but I have a bit of trouble on my hands and I don't know where to go for the right help, so I came here.

  Today I started my lappy to confront an illuminous Green Office... not all it is green just of great spots here and there. Happened to me before, but it disappears after about 15 minutes, but today his guarded it usually hours and is still as he.

  I looked everywhere on the net for a possible fix but nothing helped, even though I've heard somewhere that an update of the BIOS might do the trick, so natually, I did... I came here and searched for my Equium M40X, found, downloaded and installed the latest version...

  but now I have a screen with a resolution of half of what it should be, it went from 1200 x 800 or something like that... to 1024 x 786 and I always get the green screen problem... the program toshiba provided for the update of the BIOS does a backup file (BIOS. (BAK)...

  I can't restore the old BIOS would set the screen resolution, but I'm just helpless as to how I go about it. I find the file, but I have no way to open/run it

  I've had this laptop for about 2 years now, I know probably just getting old and a bit tempermental, but if theres no way you people out there can help, I would much apreciate it :)

  Thanks a bunch - Ash

  Hello

  I Don t think the biosupdate is the reason for the reduced screen. It does not sound like a software thing, but rather a hardware malfunction.

  Is your normal screen during startup? If so, I'd say just remove your existing display drivers and install the new. But if it s like you described then it must be a hardware problem and the machine should be checked by a technician or at least a service partner.

  Would be better if your bring your machine to an ASP for a checkup of material.
  If you need assistance to find the ASP closest, try this link (the ASP index):

  Help, please
  Thank you

  You have a number of files mutifragmented and your system would benefit from a few selected system restore points. cCleaner is the best tool for this.

  Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, cleaning disk to emptying your trash, delete temporary Internet files and other selected options. I recommend also you click Other Options, System Restore and delete all but the last system restore point. Run Disk Defragmenter.

  Using the system restore option is most appropriate when your system is slow and you need to increase the free disk space on your C partition. If you have errors that could be solved by using the system restore to your system settings back to before the error occurred initially do not use this option.

  If more than one person uses the computer and they have their own user log you need to run Disk Cleanup in each user profile that you want to delete all the unwanted files.

  A better program of disk cleanup is cCleaner. Delete System Restore points may be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments.

  cCleaner comes with a registry tool. Do not use this tool as any registry cleaner could lead to the creation of very difficult to resolve system errors.
  http://www.CCleaner.com/download

  You must ensure that you are defragmenting regularly. Defraggler is a freeware tool that is better than the now outdated Defragmenter supplied by Microsoft with Windows XP.
  http://www.Piriform.com/Defraggler

  Download cCleaner and Piriform Defraggler, rather than the alternative. Instead, do not replace the use just of Microsoft Defragmenter Defraggler. The Microsoft Defragmenter is also a useful supplier of reports. Can you provide a supplemental report when you run cCleaner and Defraggler.

  Your figure of validation of the 1037342 fees is relatively high for XP but wll below the RAM installed. McAfee can cause problems of performance on a Windows XP computer. I suggest that set you up an alternative freeware like Microsoft Security Essentials or AVG free 2012.

  Download AVG rather than Cnet.

• I lost all sound on my Equium M40X

  Seems to have lost all sound on my laptop Equium M40X.
  I tried everything obvious like ensuring that nothing is disabled, etc., have used the restore to an earlier date facility. I downloaded a new driver sound - but still no sound! Can anyone help please?

  Thanks, Bobby

  A strange case which s?  :|
  If I was you I would first check the Device Manager.
  There may be some conflicts with your sound card
  Remove the sound from the Device Manager and restart the machine.
  Then reinstall the audio driver again.

  Did you also check if you can hear something using the headset?
  You should do this!

  Also check if the sound is not muted. You can disable and enable using the FN + ESC.

• Equium M40X: Can I play the games?

  I have a new laptop Equium M40X. Am new to laptops. I can play games such as the prince of Persia warrior on this laptop, quietly and will seriously strain its resources.

  Hi Kamal,

  Welcome to the forum. Your new laptop computer has sufficient resources for almost all of the games currently available, so you risk nothing to the test by playing.

  The only problem you're likely to face with some of the most high resources games is the graphics card, because it generally uses drivers designed for your laptop and these are not necessarily compatible with the requirements of the games. I have not yet found an easy way to predict what games will be or will not work properly.

  So far, I only got a game that wouldn't work properly on my laptop due to incompatible graphics drivers (I have an ATI RADEON 9100). It is a somewhat obscure title (Knights of the Temple - crusade).

  Good luck with your new Toshiba,

  Kind regards

• No sound on Equium M40X

  I installed the drivers for my Equium M40X but I can't hear sound when I play music.
  What is the problem? Please help me solve this problem.

  Check if the MUTE option is enabled. You can turn it off using the FN + ESC key.

• Equium M40x screen: warranty issue

  Hello

  I've only had my Equium M40x for a week or two, and there is a very small fly which managed to crawl under the screen and to die in the middle of the screen. It is not huge, but it is very annoying, especially because I have not used outside and I got it for a short period of time.

  This kind of thing is covered under warranty? Any help appreciated.

  [Edited by: admin on 17 July 05 20:11]

  Hey Kevin,
  I doubt if this is covered under warranty, since it is not a component malfunction or failure.

  I recommend to contact your original provider and explain the situation to them as a first action plan. Well, they may be happy to exchange the phone for you.

  Otherwise, you call the closest to the Agent of Service Toshiba and ask them to quote you to remove dead insects. Of course, this can be done by an authorized service center or you will void your warranty.

  Good luck

• Equium M40X-discharge the battery. Help, please!

  I recently bought an Equium M40X - 149, and I did not understand why when the power adapter is plugged into the battery discharges and the computer turns off! So I returned to the store and they said it's just the cycle of the battery and I would need to go into bios to change the settings.
  I went into the bios, but I couldn't find anything that I could change to stop it! Can someone point me in the right direction because this is inconvinient for me to keep taking the battery when I want to use the laptop!

  Thank you
  Gemma

  Hi Gemma,

  Switching between AC and battery power is normally controlled by the Toshiba Power utility. You can check the configuration and parameters to confirm that you are not defined to use the power of the battery.

  When the PC is turned off then a chip on the motherboard controls the battery when the power is connected. This prevents the overload (and damage resulting to) the battery.

  If the problem persists, I would re - install the utility of Toshiba power from your utility disk or from the Toshiba web site.
