Boatmoter, welcome to the forum.

Have you checked to see if the computer is overheating all in game.  Games is intense and can cause a heat.  This can certainly cause the computer to reboot unexpectedly.  There are many FREE programs that you can use to check the time.

Thanks for the tip I will load CPUZ and check the temperature which would be the specs of temp on this one

  • Why my WIFI on my computer turns off by itself and won't turn it on?

    I have a Dell Inspiron e1505 with windows XP home. My internet works fine. I have the latest drivers for my computer. But my WI - FI goes off without reason and won't turn on, so I have to restart the computer. When this produces the sound on my computer also starts to act "weird." I begin to hear a crackling sound or the sound stops, but not all the time... just to milliseconds. I have re-installed the driver for audio that came on a CD, but the problem occurs again when the wi - fi goes out of himself. Help, please! I don't know what to do!

  • How to turn off the tone car audio when playing at more fast speed CC14?

    I'm interested in disabling the audio pitch corrected during playback to higher than normal speed using he'S or LLL on the keyboard.   He does not have my workflow and causes a slow down due to the incompatible CTI skip when the playback speed changes.

    Yet once how can I disable the automatic pitch correction when reading timeline or clips to higher than normal speed?

    I like that Adobe did all the updates major at a high speed and all, but I find more UI bugs because of that and it would be nice to have more freedom in preferences to turn some of these new things that could be causing problems.

  • BlackBerry 8350i smartphones turns off By itself and back!

    OK, I have an 8350i by Nextel. A couple of weeks my BB itself off and turned and then turn the. I don't think much of it until he started to happen very frequently. When I say often, I hear every 10 minutes. Pretty frustrating for a phone that I use for work. I took it to a local service, but they didn't know what was going on so they simply slipped the software and reloaded it. This solves the problem for about 24 hours, and then she went back. There has been sporadic with about one day between each of them, but it has since become a very common question again. It happens about 5 times a day I know. It's embarrassing and I hope someone can help. Thank you in advance!

  • Whenever I have turn off my monitor, and then turn it back on, all my desktop icons are completely reorganized.

    This issue just started.  Whenever I have turn off my monitor and then turn it back on, all my desktop icons are completely reorganized.  This happens when my system goes into power saving mode, or whenever I have turn off the monitor.  Even if I turn it back on just 5 seconds later, all of my icons are not where they were previously.  Help!

    Suggestions:

    1 a simple way:
    . Right click on desktop > view > uncheck Auto arrange > check snap to grid.

    2. in a more elaborate way and actually a better way. I use this method I have over 150 shortcuts etc on my desk. I can't afford to have shortcuts/icons, rearranging themselves. I won't be able to find anything, if they do.
    Here is the tutorial:
    http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/save-and-restore-desktop-icon-layout-in-Windows-Vista/

    Note: The method is not perfect, you can, after a while, have one or 2 icons on the spot. But it's easy to fix.

  • Laptop will not turn off by itself

    I have a HP Pavilion 15 - e097sa that is currently running Windows 8.1. When using the battery, it is not usually turned off by itself. I have to press on and hold the power button until it turns off. When the power supply is connected, it shut down normally. There is no error message and it just turns back normally afterwards.

    I contacted HP Support and the solution is to disable a quick start, but thanks anyway

    Hi mweedn!

    I understand that you see a reduction in the battery of your iPhone 5s after updating to iOS 10. It is important to be able to make full use of your iPhone! There are a few resources that can help.

  • C50-A-1HF satellite will turn off by itself after 2 seconds

    Hello

    the laptop turns off by itself after 2 seconds when I turn it on. This happens if I shutted down or choosed hibernate before (Win8.1).

    This means hibernation is not at all useable.

    The next time I turn it on it works quite normal! Sleep mode works as well. Standby mode it is ready for use after open them both as a repetitive. Fascinating!

    I looked on all the settings of the BIOS, but I found nothing what could be the reason for this behavior.

    Perhaps there is a correlation with another strange behavior. The battery will not be charged over 80%. I do not use the green mode. I have to turn off the laptop and remove the battery completely for a minute. After inserting and booting Win8.1 what it charges again at 100%.

    The discharge time is approximately 3.5 hours. Otherwise, the battery is ok.

    But after the next discharge up to 10% charge that up to 80% more.

    These two effects are not normal. But I don't think (or better, I hope) that there is a material defect.

    Is there a chance does not post the laptop to a repair service?

    Best regards

    Onurbi

    Hey man it are so strange problems and it's not easy to say what to do. All you can do is to install the original recovery image and test with the settings once more, of course without changing anything or install updates or additional applications.

    If possible to do this and test it for a while.
    > Is there a chance does not post the laptop to a repair service?
    As you probably know your possibilities to do something about this are very limited and if there is permanent problem I think you should contact the closest service Toshiba and clarify all of this.
    You have the new laptop model and it should work properly. If you are not happy and there are service problems Toshiba should take are about it and help you.
