Frozen laptop up - no access

I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L305D-S5934. When I received a message "a problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to the computer. Now, when you turn on the pc, it shows the Toshiba start screen and goes no further. Seems to have stopped. Impossible to get in Mode safe', F2 or F12 do not respond and the recovery disks do not work. Could really use help SMEs. Am running Windows Vista Home Premium.

Call Toshiba and see what are the options they give you.

They will probably ask you to try to restore the system to factory settings, then you might want to get some kind of bootable CD/DVD first (some Linux Live CD - Live CD of Ubuntu is a good choice one OR operation Ultimate Boot CD for Windows is a basis of Linix Ultimate Boot CD) to see if it boots.  Most have tests for hard drives and such integrated.  If she stops on CD and you can get network and others - you can assume that most of the parts are likely good.

  • Laptop is not access grub after standby extended drive

    Hi all

    I suspect a hardware problem, but I'm not 100% sure on this subject. The issue has already appeared a few days ago, but I managed to solve it by pressing F8 at the beginning upward. Now F8 does not work and I think that F8 was not at all involved, and it's only lucky shot.

    It seems the startup just stops before, or so, access to grub2. I am able to stop and restart, but there is no startup options. The mini laptop is a toshiba satellite t110-107 and normally start options appear at the bottom, F2 to access bios and F12 as a shortcut for selecting the boot device (if I remember correctly). But sometimes, they do not appear at all, I think that's when I put hibernate instead of shut down the system, but to be honest, I never paid attention to this behavior. She normally worked. Note that I use hibernate-drive and extended ram usually sleep for years, and it has always worked properly.

    Thank you very much in advance for any advice you want to give me. I will try to access the system with a shell external grub or with a different distribution of linux to re - install grub. I hope I don't have to thow away the laptop :-(

    See you soon

    Hello

    I have a laptop HP dating a week 15-ay011nr that does not allow me to access the BIOS. I do not see the message "press ESC for Boot Menu", but it starts directly on the hp logo.

    With reference to this previous post:

    I wanted to make sure if this solution applies to 15 laptops and if I do this or else, given the warranty has not expired

    Any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated

    Kind regards

    Only other thing I can think of who isn't in this post is to restore the bios, you can now win + keys B and turning on the holding of these keys, you can release it when the update/recovery of the bios screen

    After that try with Esc or f10 key immediately after the power

    If this does not work then I would recommend to contact your warranty computer HP

  • Frozen laptop after Windows 10 download

    I tried to load windows 10 to my laptop and it was loading forever.  I left it last night and now the computer is frozen on the password screen.  Keys and the mouse are inadmissible.  Help!

    Hi Joan,

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    According to the description of the problem, your computer is frozen to the login screen. First, try hard, restart the computer and see if it helps you to solve the problem.

    If the problem persists, I suggest that you want to run auto repair with installation media and see if it helps you repair system files or not. For the execution of the task, I suggest you to try the steps below and see if it helps.

    Method 1

    When you use the recovery environment (Windows RE) to troubleshoot startup issues, first try the Startup Repair option in the System Recovery Options dialog box. If this does not resolve the problem, or if you have additional problems manually, use the Bootrec.exe tool.

    Because you cannot start the computer, you may need to create a bootable Windows installation media, and then do an auto repair, and if this does not help then you try to restore your computer to the previous date.

    Note: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    If you are using Windows 7 then the link provided below might help you to download and create installation media.

    Download Windows 7 Disk Images (ISO files)

    Method 2

    If the problem persists, try to rebuild the BCD by using the Bootrec.exe tool. To run the Bootrec.exe tool, you must start the recovery Windows (WINRE) environment . To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Place the Windows 7 installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.
    2. Press a key when you are prompted. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.
    3. Click repair your computer.
    4. Click the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
    5. In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.
    6. Type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER.

    See the following link for more information:

    How to use the Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows recovery environment to troubleshoot and repair startup issues in Windows

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/927392

    Hope it would help. If problem persists always post back with the current state of your computer and the result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to help you.

    Kind regards

  • Frozen laptop to "install updates 1 of 1.

    I have a laptop Acer 5542 6 months old. In the last month, I got the blue screen twice, and I have no idea why. The laptop has been hot, is it possible that? I have now bought a laptop to computer has hope that was the least of my problems.

    Apparently not.

    I used my laptop this morning and then it turned off, and he said that he was '1 1' updates to be precise. I went out and left, I came back 5 hours later and it froze on this message, it was plugged, but my mother disconnected so that the screen went black so I told her to turn it off it had made updates to the thought.

    I plugged the laptop back in because the battery should be dead by the time, I'm home

    I don't know what to do, if you want to disable it and run the risk of seeing what is happening or what. Any way that the blue screen is related to that?

    Acer said it is out of warranty, but it has not reached the 6-month period yet!

    Hello

    § You are able to boot to the desktop normally?

    I suggest that you turn off the laptop and then turn on and check if you are able to boot to the desktop normally. Checking update has been installed on the system. Follow step 1.

    Step 1:

    a. click on Start menu and type Windows Update in the start search box and press ENTER.

    b. click view update history. This will give you a list of the updates that are installed on the system.

    c. check (failed or successful) updates on the exact date when the update has been installed on the system.

    Let us know the number of the update has been installed on the system recently.

    d. remove it clicking Update installed system.

    e. click on the update that has recently been installed on the system, then click on uninstall.

    f. check if you are able to boot to the desktop normally.

    If you are not able to boot to the desktop normally, then check if you're able to boot in safe mode. Follow step 2.

    Step 2:

    a. turn on the system and keep tapping F8 until you reach the start menu.

    b. Select safe mode and press ENTER.

    c. check the update has been installed on the system recently following step 1.

    d. remove it clicking Update installed system.

    e. click on the update that has recently been installed on the system, then click on uninstall.

    f. check if you are able to boot to the desktop normally.

    Step 3:

    If you are not able to boot to the desktop or safe mode, I suggest you do a system restore. Follow the steps mentioned below.

    Remove all floppy disks, CDs and DVDs from your computer, and then restart your computer using the power button on the computer.

    b. do one of the following:

    § If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you must try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then stop and restart your computer.

    § If your computer has multiple operating systems, use the arrows to select the operating system you want to repair, and then press and hold F8.

    c. on the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to select repair your computer and press ENTER. (If your computer is not listed as an option, then your computer doesn't understand no repair preinstalled recovery options, or your network administrator has disabled the.)

    d. Select a keyboard layout, and then click Next.

    e. on the System Recovery Options menu, click System Restore to open it.

    f. restore the computer to a previous date when it was working fine.

    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: run DrirveView - set the VIEW to hide
    Microsoft drivers - update those without drain in their names. (Also update BIOS and)

    drivers chipset on the site of the constructor/the system motherboard.)

    -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.

    How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.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.
