• 8.1 Windows hangs at random times on Satellite C50D-A-133

  Hi all

  I had this problem for awhile now.

  I bought a new laptop Toshiba C50D-A-133 with 8.1 Windows pre-installed in December.
  The problem is that Windows 8.1 hangs at random times.

  More frequently, watching a movie in Media Player, listen to music or browsing Web sites.
  The only thing I can do during a freeze, is to move the cursor.

  But I can't click on anything - it does not.
  Time to 'freeze' varies - it may take 30 seconds or even up to 5 minutes.
  After that, he usually "unfreezes" and everything works well again or restart the laptop on its own.
  There are times, I have 3-4 freezes for an hour and there are times that there is only a single gel in eight hours.

  All drivers (graphics, card WiFi, sound card, etc.) are up to date.
  I checked the system for malware and viruses - it wasn't all.
  I have all the Windows updates.

  I don't know, what is the source of this problem?
  It's really annoying.

  I will be grateful for any advice.

  I guess that no one will be able to say exactly what is the source of this gel.

  From my point of view, you should first check if this isn't software related issue.
  In many cases of system problems could lead to as annoying behavior for laptop and this is why I would recommend you to Reset (to recover) the system back to factory settings.

  From my understanding in the case where the gel is related to the problem system, return to factory settings should to fix this

• Firefox crashes at random times.

  For several months now, Firefox has been crashing at random times. I've been ignoring most of the time, but it's happened more often these days, so I finally want to try to understand what is happening. I guess it has to do with the add - it and the extension of the conflict, but if so, I don't know which ones, and I don't know how to read the crash reports. I tried the update of Firefox (as well as my Add-ons and plug-ins) several times, but it did not help. And as far as I know, it doesn't seem to be something specific causing accidents. Sometimes, this will happen when I go to a Youtube link, and sometimes it's going to happen when I'm in the middle of reading plain text. And sometimes, when I don't do anything.

  I am currently using Firefox 24.0 on Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. I run malware scans regularly with MBAM and SUPERAntiSpyware, which none have done anything malicious in the recent past. Here is my latest 5 crash reports:

  Crash ID: bp-50ab1ac1-15de-440c-8470-7b74a2141006

• Firefox hangs at random, even with all extensions disabled and new profile, but not in safe mode

  From about 2 weeks ago, Firefox has been crashing. Accidents is seemingly random, but normally occurs when several pages/tabs are opened. In addition, all observed accidents occurred in the middle of some operations of the user. If I leave it just opened (and responsible), he would never crash even after a long period.

  Also, accidents happen even once all extensions are disabled manually. However, it seems not to happen in Mode without failure.

  After each accident, in the crash report dialog box, the 'Détails' report would not respond. However I can open reports using the command about: crashes.

  Before the accident would happen, sometimes evil-following behaviors may be observed:

  • Firefox fails to render characters CJK, their view as a rather square boxes
  • Ideogram IME(Namely Google Pinyin, an IME for Simplified Chinese) is no longer can be enabled in Firefox, on a Web page element, or on the UI of Firefox itself (i.e. the address bar or the search bar)

  The following has been tried but no luck:

  • Disable all extensions manually
  • Start a new profile
  • Reset Firefox
  • Uninstall/reinstall Firefox
  • Beta version of FX, 14 to 15, and then to 16

  Hello Rainarrow, other users who have recently updated the graphics driver for their ati hardware (for the version of catalyst ati 12.8) reported similar accidents. Please try disabling hardware acceleration in firefox > options > advanced > General & see if that solves the problem of frequent accidents at the moment.

• My Firefox keeps crashing at random times and becomes more common

  My firefox has been blocked for awhile now at random times. Now it does quite often. I need help to know what is the cause. Thank you

  Has collapsed since difficulty. Looks as it did. Thanks for all the help.

• Firefox hangs frequently on Windows 8.1

  Firefox has been suspended at apparently random times since I got my laptop Windows 8.1, who owns an i7, 8 GB of RAM and Intel HD 4600 Graphics.

  Hanging itself lasts anywhere from 10 seconds to a few minutes, and it usually freezes all other programs as well. It can happen at any time, regardless of the memory usage - when I open a new tab, when I type in the search bar, when I click on a bookmark, etc.

  This does not work on my Linux Mint partition, nor on my Windows 7 computer. In view of this fact and my laptop specs, I doubt that it's a hardware problem. My best guess is that one of my plugins/extensions is at the origin, which I believe have been met in the troubleshooting information.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Can you try disabling the hardware acceleration?

  1. Click the menu button

     

     then select Options.

  2. In the window of Firefox Options (or preferences), click on the Advanced tab, and then select general.
  3. You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
  4. Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
  • Troubleshoot extensions, themes, and issues of hardware acceleration to resolve common problems of Firefox
  • Update your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL

• Request master password at random times

  request password to master at first, with just enough delay to be annoying, then seemingly random times asking once again, if you just cancel firefox continues to be merrily along, a feature really annoying

  This can also occur if you use the synchronization.

  The synchronization used in Firefox 34 version then use password manager to store the name (e-mail) and password to use to connect to the synchronization server.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

  • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
  • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

  I have not had the opportunity to try, but if you have access to another machine, you should be able
  do a repair reinstall of Windows by installing your HARD drive on this computer, unless activation
  You can do it on another machine.
  Once you move the HARD drive to your machine things should be fine,
  and if you reactivate Windows it should pose no problems.
  The 'install, upgrade and activate' instance should be people who can check it out.
  Or - if you have another HARD drive install Windows to this as a test (assuming the rest of the machine
  Awake quite a long time to complete the installation :)). If the machine still locks with a clean base
  installation of the material becomes more suspicious.

  You will need to answer a few questions over early to help in the process of elimination.
  Behind closed doors are not uncommon when focusing on a machine with a game, but randomly at any time the camera can come from many things are so difficult to solve.

  Some of what I read the PSU Chieftek should be a good diet, but the review below
  find a problem with the application of current stable - (turbo Cheiftek 850W series)
  «The voltage drop is very high, unacceptable thing for a PSU 850w which is intended for the high-end systems that require a stable power supply.» Also with more than 80% of the charges, the readings of voltage of 12v lines are far from regulation ATX. Despite the fact that the pc continued to work normally, no one would have a power with this voltage drop. I would like to have the equipment to measure the ripple also. »
  While Chieftek is apparently made by the mfg even as some brands that are more
  known in my part of the world (Oz), an unstable current is often caused by markets good components (coils and capacitors), but even a good quality diet (any PC component) may be faulty from the start, and camera are a common symptom of a failed power.
  If the power supply was the problem and the system hangs even when not under duress, you do
  have a very real need to fear a crash while performing a repair reinstall. Full backup of data
  would be advised.

• Two different language versions of Firefox at the same time?

  I am running Windows 7 Home Premium. I have two accounts, one for me and one for my wife. She uses Firefox (Japanese), and I've been using another browser. But I would like to firstly using Firefox (in English).

  Is it possible to run two different language versions of Firefox on the same computer? I want to be able to run both at the same time... (So if I navigate and she wants to check an auction quickly it can without my duty close my browser).

  Can be done with relative ease?

  Make sure that each of you has their own Firefox profile folder.
