Equium U400-146 begins to turn off randomly

I bought a new Toshiba Equium from PC World, and everything worked perfectly well on...

But a month later it starts then turn off randomly (that is not caused by overheating), and I have to take out it and put again to start again.

He has not been abandoned before, and the AC adapter and the battery work fine

What could be wrong? : S

Well, if Notepad starts turning off spontaneously then an overheating problem may be possible, I mean this isn't a common behavior of mobile and in my temperature only high opinion could cause something like that
In most cases the laptop automatically stops to prevent the equipment from damage

Maybe you should check if the cooling modules can work properly and if nothing prevents air circulation
Ensure that the vents are free of dust and debris and don t use the laptop in bed, couch or in places where the air circulation is not possible

  • iPhone turns off randomly

    Hello

    I got an iPhone 5S for about a year and a half and, for the most part, it was a great phone for me. Yesterday, it turns off randomly every few hours. It already happened, and usually stops the next day. However, it was not the case this time. All day today, it would be random and often turned off and won't turn back on unless it is plugged or I hold all the buttons. In addition, the percentages of battery were in every sense. Sometimes, when turned back on, it will be 100% even it it has low battery symbol flash before the apple logo, as it is powered. About 10 minutes, however, he turned on and says that it is 5%. I'm sitting here watching and it has not extinguished since and has charged up to 11%. I use third-party chargers. I only used a up to the earlier today, when I remembered, I got another loader (which is also a third party). So I went to that one, but I don't think it makes a difference.

    It's now about 2 hours. My phone was plugged in and 100% for most of the time. No problems. Then I disconnected and had it for about 2 minutes, works great until I put my case back on. He then turns off. I was able to turn it back on, but it then immediately off again. I plugged and I can't turn it on.

    Any ideas as to what could be the problem? And more importantly, a solution?

    Sorry this is so long and complicated. I will answer questions about my unusual situation if it helps solve the problem.

    Thank you!

  • Equium U400-146 - no backlight

    Hello

    I have a laptop Toshiba Equium U400-146. The warranty has expired the 17 ^ e ^, and the next day, the backlight has failed. I roughly see the screen in bright light, but it's not very practical. Currently, I work around this problem by using an external monitor, but it means that I can no longer use it at college to do my course.

    What are the probable causes and solutions to this problem?

    I took the laptop to The Tech Guys in the PC world, but for a backlight repair they quoted me the rather steep price for £230. I am currently waiting for quotes from a few other places, but I saw a screen U400-146 to sell on ebay for about £65. However, I hesitate to start the repairs myself, in case I had to end up ruining the laptop completely.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    > The warranty has expired on 17 and the next day, the backlight has failed
    Which is really a bad luck :(

    I think that the FL inverter is faulty this small part controls the backlight of the display and if it would be defective, then you could see everything as behind a thick fog!

    The FL inverter needs to be replaced it is a solution of the FL inverter is not really expensive...

    Laptop disassembly is delicate but you should get in touch with a local technician must be done by someone with experience

  • Satellite A30-414 turn off randomly

    Hi, I'm new here. I own this Satellite A30-414. It works well, but it turns off randomly. I explain.

    I might use it for non-stop days, it works well, but sometimes it empties and turns off. Then it always turns on the second attempt. I mean, after the stop, I turn it on, I see the MESSAGE, then it turns off again. The second time I turn it on it goes OK and starts Windows XP Pro SP3. There is no particular action, I do it turns off, it can happen any application at any time. As I said, it can stay for days, connected to the internet via wifi or lan, download P2P stuff, no problem not turn off.

    I thought it was the temperature because it's warm enough, so I run it on a laptop computer have lower airflow, not at all, it turns off randomly anyway. Maybe I'm thniking more heating unsoldered some brazing under BGA chips, so it might need a redistribution of some chips, maybe the graphics chip

    Can you help me please?

    Thanx

    Hi satiropan,

    > I thought it was the temperature because it's warm enough, so I run it on a laptop computer have lower airflow, not at all, it turns off randomly anyway.
    Such an external Notebook Cooler will not help you solve this problem. The internal cooling fan is designed and tested for this laptop and everything will work perfectly even on high usage. External cooling is not necessary.

    It's old enough laptop model, so I imagine that a lot of dust blocking the cooling fan. Therefore, clean it with a jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans. The exact procedure is described here:

    I have a problem with vista. the computer just turns off randomly for no apparent reason.

    the machine is a 4 year HP, and he has never done this before.

    No I turn it off when I'm done and then next turn when I need it, but it just stops different lenths of the time, different applications?

    It may be a heat problem, the CPU would be shut down automatically as a security measure to prevent it from overheating. To avoid it to be then you need to open the computer and blow the dust out of it and make sure all the fans run correctly.

    If this isn't the case, then it might be a virus.

  • Equium A210-17I turn off randomly

    Hello

    My laptop is a little more than two years now. Since just after Christmas there now randomly turned off itself several times. Basically the screen turns off, standby-led is orange regular and the hard drive light flashes very quickly. Even when it is plugged in, the cord and battery supply turns off lights. To re - start the computer, I have to turn the power off then remove the battery and it starts normally after that (usually propose a SafeMode as a startup option).

    Sometimes the laptop was warm enough, but the last time he did not feel too (and comes to be browsing the internet). The first, some times even if I had just watched a DVD / was something the iplayer streaming and it was nice and warm. I ordered a cooling with built-in fans support where it is overheating, but it happened when on my knees too, so I'm really not block all of the fans.

    I just thought that I would ask here in case the lights were any sort of way to identify the problem, or if anyone else had a similar problem. As I say it still works well most of the time and it only did about 5 or 6 times in the last month and a half, but I'm worried still cause problems and so would work it out!

    Any help much appreciated!

    Hello

    If you have the replaced cooling fans, but have you also renewed the thermal grease? This should also be done sometimes and if your laptop is still 2 years old, it could be the problem of this stop randomly.

    Otherwise, I think that he associated material s and maybe the motherboard, CPU, or RAM is the cause but your laptop should be checked by a technician of the laptop.

  • MacBook pro screen turns off randomly?

    My 15 inch Macbook Pro 13 (obtained in new end 14 h & B, started using it at the beginning of the 15) has a screen which turns off at random (dim backlight is - I can see a slight difference when I actually turn off the laptop), in addition to the programs (audio abruptly stops, etc.). The computer is still on 'on' (Hum, backlight on) and it will overheat after a bit. I have to hold the power to restart. Resolutions of potential problems?

    Other things-

    1. It happens in bursts, which happens once and if I do the reboot thing and continue to use it, it will probably happen again in about 10 minutes, and if I continue to do, at some point it will extinguish almost immediately after I connect (but never before!...)
    2. Looks like CPU-consuming tasks cause this happens more frequently: However, I've never had it happen once during a vidchat on Skype or Hangouts, so I don't know? iTunes, it is more likely to occur while
    3. Seems to happen more often on the recharge of battery/no lower, but has recently been happening sometimes at 100%/plugged in.
    4. It is probably the material - I 10.9 update (question began, then like 2 months ago) to 10.11 and issue continue to occur.
    5. I suspected the battery, so I went to the Apple Store and the initial diagnosis found nothing at the edge of any

    Hello

    I have a toshiba Satellite A100-SP2022 PSAA5U-02G00G portable satellite and sometimes turns off the coast at random.
    The battery and charger are OK.

    I saw a bulletin saying a word on an update of the BIOS for A100 series for that matter.

    The problem is: I can't find my model or my BIOS to the toshiba support site.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I put t think that this could be linked to the BIOS
    In my opinion the reason for this problem could be a high temperature.

    You said that the laptop stops automatically?
    Usually, this occurs if the temperature reaches a critical threshold and the laptop stops to prevent the equipment from damage

    In most cases, the vents are clogged and air cannot circulate properly.

    Therefore, it would be desirable to check and clean the ventilation openings with a professional air spray.
    This could help them to get rid of dust and debris.
