• Computer running slow even after the factory restore

  OK I'll try to summarize the best that I can about it.

  I own a Toshiba U405D 1 1/2 years, delivered with a pre-installed version of Vista Home Premium. Not a SINGLE PROBLEM NEVER, until some time late last week.

  All of a sudden (and I mean that), Windows Explorer, Windows update, and essentially the main components of my OS has become unstable. Does not not for no reason, going slowly like a dinosaur... I mean it was bad.

  Virus scan; nothing wrong. Spyware; Nada. Check disk; It froze on me twice. Safe mode; error messages like "CCC.exe unresponsive", etc. I uninstalled MANY programs; process of elimination of obviously. Always problems. So, after that it froze several several times, finally got behave long enough to create recovery disks and wiping my HD.

  After finally getting back to factory settings and starting over with my files and other, begins to have the same problems again, but now a new problem. Sometimes when the fan is, I hear a click or sound like something is stuck in the fan itself. Never had this happen before, ever.

  I don't have IE8 or any software to download. Regarding the programs installed personally, I have Norton (usually I do not use it, but I did not have time to change my Anti-vir antivirus), iTunes, lots of music from my CD collection (about 8 GB) and school of working files.

  I need to know if his time in the trash this thing and get a new, upgraded to 7 machine or can I retrieve this piece of ____?

  ~ Thank you ~

  If the same issues are produced after a recovery, it seems that it may be hardware problems.

  And the click could be a hard failure.

  See you soon.

• Portable operation extremely slow even after the system recovery

  I have a series of g laptop and on last week, it started running VERY slowly after the start. It came from nowhere, because it allows to work just fine the day before. So yesterday, I restored the factory setting and saved without previous files or documents. He worked as new for a few hours and then it suddenly becomes very slow. It's so slow that it freezes or it loads forever when I just click or click on the Start button. Pretty much everything I had there, it was iTunes malawarebytes, utorrent, steam and some other stuff that is were all on my computer before the problems began. Help will be greatly appreciated!
  
  Best regards, Nicolas

  Hi Nicolas,.

  Regarding the size of the hard drive, there may be problems with the recovery process if you are installing a drive of smaller capacity than one that was originally supplied with your laptop - the same size or slightly more is Ok.

  Unfortunately, I do not see the image of your link, but I think I know what you are referring.

  I guess than the previous you reinstalled the operating system is using the D Partition of hard disk recovery.  However, with a new disc, it will not be possible that the disc is not completely empty.  You will need to use a set of recovery DVDs to reinstall the operating system on the new drive - however, this procedure going to re-create the recovery on the new drive Partition automatically.

  All you have to do, once the new drive has been installed is to operate on the esc key when you launch Notepad to open the Start Menu.  Insert the recovery DVD.  Select boot options (usually f9), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.  You can also get a prompt to "Press any key to" continuous - it if requested.  This will start the Recovery Manager and the whole procedure will be very similar to the previous method, you used - you will be prompted by the software when you need to change DVD to continue the process.

  Kind regards

• Computer startup that Firefox runs great. After the closure of this UO several times, the icon does not work anymore and you cannot restart Firefox without having to restart. Why?

  At the start of new computer, you can load Firefox OK. After closing repeatedly, the icon on the desktop won't open Firefox... or go to programs and click on Firefox. The only way you can get it working again is to restart the computer, but then you only bring up Firefox several times again without haviing to restart. I even tried to restore the computer to earlier dates without result. If I use Internet Explorer to open Firefox the same thing happens. I tried to remove Firefox and reinstall, but it tells me that Firefox must be closed to continue. I don't see where it is open. Advisor

• Running slow even after reimage... time to replace the 5100 disc drive?

  My laptop 5100 is very slow and I hear the drive access very regularly and it affect playback of the media while doing other tasks. Even after recess with the CD that accompanies it improves a lot.

  I'm assuming the drive is dying, but open to suggestions. Out of curiosity he would make a difference if you had everything on one big partition or multiple?

  According to Device Manager the drive is a MK6021GAS. A few questions for those who have the necessary expertise to respond to...

  (1) do I replace with the same Toshiba player?

  (2) can I replace it with a larger drive?

  (3) everyone has replaced these discs successfully?

  (4) any recommendations on where to buy?

  BTW, this laptop was purchased in Australia if it makes a difference.

  Thank you very much
  Richard

  Hello

  (1) you must not buy exactly the same HARD drive, but it is always recommended to use the compatible module.
  (2) theoretically Yes. . I think 60 GB is really enough for this camera, but I think that 80 GB HARD drive is recognized correctly.
  (3) the disc replacement is very easy and you can do it alone. In the lower corner, near the battery, you will find the HARD drive cover. I'm not sure, but it is fixed with a screw. Remove carefully and you will see how the HARD drive is placed there.
  (4) Google a bit. You will find a large number of suppliers. You can also buy it in every store of PC. eBay is also an alternative.

• Google ping goes from 25ms to 900ms shortly after the reset and stays there

  Hey everybody,

  My internet is REALLY slow for a few weeks.  I've isolated the problem to my LinkSys E3000.  My bandwidth is fine, but response times are unhappy.

  When I reset and ping Google, I'll take 20-30ms for maybe 30-60 seconds and then he leap to 700-900ms response time.  If I have the wiring in my modem, I get 20-30ms response time.

  I am running the latest firmware: 1.0.06

  I tried:

  -Reset to factory settings

  -Wireless-N to use only on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz individually (the other cutting)

  -To select various different channels, click on auto for both

  -using the WPA/WPA2 mixed as well as strictly personal WPA2

  I am at a loss...

  Thanks for any help!

  I thought about it.  This is my backup of cloud BackBlaze.

  BackBlaze says I have backup to 0.7 MB/s and the problem goes away when I strangle the equal or less than 0.5 Mbps upload.

  Weird.  I would not have guessed my E3000 to struggle with a rattling wireless because of this.  My download bandwidth never had no ill effect - just answer reallly slow loading time of pages and what not.

• Adobe Acrobat plug of keeps showing that is out of date, even after the update or reinstall.

  Other users have reported similar problems. My particular case: Running Firefox - date (42.0) - Windows 7 (as so far). Firefox has constantly watch the Adobe Acrobat Reader plug-in is not up-to-date. I tried to update and reinstalled Acrobat. I just had request Acrobat update which has been a success and also updated to Firefox. Firefox still has reports that Acrobat is obsolete. Firefox reports that the current add-on is 15.9.20069.28170, but clicking on update now button on the Add you check page contains links to a page of Adobe update with the version number 2015.009.20069. When I search (Google) for the latest version, I've reached a page that lists all versions, updates, etc.. The latest version is 2015.009.20069. According to the Panel, the version of Adobe Acrobat Reader is installed on the computer is 15.009.20077!

  As far as I can tell it's working properly, updated regularly. I don't know where the 28170 number comes from or why page Add on reports that Acrobat is out of date, unless the version update of the Acrobat Reader software is not actually update the Add On from Firefox portion.

  Any suggestion or comment?

  My suggestion is to ignore the information from the website of checker plugin and use the built-in functionality of Adobe to check updates. In your DC of Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat DC:

  Help menu > check for updates

  While the site checker plugin uses data provided by Adobe, there seems to be some discrepancies between the program and the version number of plugin that have not yet been resolved.

• MacBook Pro running slow even after upgrade

  I have a MacBook Pro 13 inch model mid 2012, which had 4 GB of RAM, 500 GB hard drive, processor i5 2.5 Ghz, Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB and running on OSX El Capitan version 10.11.5. I upgraded my RAM from 4 GB to 8 GB, still my Mac is slow. Apps for open at the usual time, he used to take when I had 4 GB of RAM. I bought the RAM correct as required by the specification of the laptop from the apple Web site. I tried all possible measures to increase my speed of laptop by Google but there was a lot of difference.  Help, please!

  There are 2 things you can try to improve the speed of your MacBook Pro.

  1 backup all your data, then on boot hold down CMD + R, then open disk utility and format your hard drive. You go to install a new copy of Mac OS x.

  2. follow the same steps as above but swap your hard drive outside with a SSD before doing the CMD + R reset tactical.

  MAKE SURE THAT YOU BACK UP YOUR DATA FIRST

  I have the same machine and had the same problem, my MacBook Pro is faster than ever.

• Firefox does not open after the update. Cannot open the profile technical, even when you use the directory in cmd line path

  I'm using Firefox on a Windows 7 computer. Firefox does not open after the last update. I read the help articles and it seems that I need to create a new profile because my settings were probably corrupted. I'm unable to open the profile technical, even when you use the directory in cmd line path. I tried the following commands in the command line:

  Firefox Pei
  "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla" PEI

  Nothing happens with every order.

  I am also running Norton Internet Security. I read a help of virtual navigation features Re article that can cause a problem. The article says to check the setting of virtualization in the internet security software and to clear the virtual cache. I went through all the menus of settings in Norton Internet Security version 21.6.0.32 and I don't see anything that looked like in "virtualization" settings, so I guess that does not apply to me. "
