• HP G62 laptop computer: laptop freezes after startup

  After starting my laptop freezes.  How long after starting varies.  Sometimes it will freeze after only a few minutes. Sometimes it can be operational for an hour or two.  Want to know how to fix this.

  Tested hard drive and the Long DST failed.  Has given an ID of the failure of QAGCHR-5GH847-XDOO3A-61AKO3.  Product ID is XHO66UA #ABA.

  Hello

  Error code 24 characters is a failure of the entire test (DST) disk Self and would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.  This is also consistent with the freezing issues you describe.

  If you want a guide on replacing the hard drive yourself, let me know.

  Kind regards

• Qosmio G30 freezes at startup of Norton Internet Security 2008

  Norton Internet Security 2008 will freeze my computer because soon, it attempts to load and the only way to do is to restart the system by pressing the on/off key.

  My laptop is a Toshiba Qosmio G30-177 (model No. PQG32E-02G022GR) with Vista Ultimate and pre-installed NIS2007. I have no problem with this NIS2008 version on my other laptop (Qosmio F10 - PQF10E-02300JGR, WinXP MCE).
  NIS2007 works well on my G30 and I have no problems at all, but more recent versions of NIS seem to be in conflict with my system:

  1. I am able to install and run the new version, download all updates and adjusting the settings. Maybe, a couple days later my computer freezes after start in exactly when the NIS tray icon appears. For a few seconds there is simply no response of the system at all and the LED of my laptop show that any HD activity has ceased. After having been inactive during those seconds, the cooling fan will start to operate at maximum power, creating a huge noise that I never experienced before, not even while the CPU was operating at 100% for a while due to other programs. Force a reboot, that's all I can do.

  2. now, this time, I rebooted my laptop successfully even once (took a few attempts) and it all of a sudden not freeze. Then I disabled the firewall and auto-protect at all times, so there was no freezing at startup and I just had to enable both the firewall and auto-protect after start manually. In order to avoid the gel again after the reboot, I always disabled NIS before shutdown. For one or two days of workaround has been quite successful.

  3. all of a sudden, after one or two days, this work around will become useless, because the system begins to freeze again at the time of the icon is displayed. In this case, restart has no effect at all, and NIS will continue to freeze at startup. I also tried to prevent form from NIS to ccApp.exe run automatically at startup (administrative tools > system configuration > "Startup" tab). It's successful and my laptop is able to start normally, but if later I try to start NIS manually, it will freeze again.

  I had this problem since NIS2008 just came out, so I thought that at the same time an update Windows or Norton may have solved the problem, but this weekend I gave another NIS2008 trying without success. I'm pretty sure that the problem is not caused by other software than Windows or Norton, because I also tried to install NIS after a full system recovery, so I've only preinstalled NIS2007 and Vista on my laptop. I use Norton removal tool and follow the instructions to uninstall before attempting to install the new version of course.
  My last hope was that the version of NIS2009beta somehow would not freeze my system, but it does. It does not matter if I try to start 2008 or version 2009beta, the problem is exactly the same.

  What really motivates me almost crazy is the fact that NIS works perfectly for a while, then needs enough small workaround, and then after some time completely refuses to work. In these two days I do not change system settings, install or uninstall programs or doing whatever it is that I felt might conflict with NIS...
  So far, I have no idea of the solution and have again use NIS2007.

  Someone knows how to fix this?

  Hello

  To be honest I don t use the Norton internet security because it slows down the performance of the laptop and he needs too many resources.
  I used the NIS06 and after several months of use I removed it from my system for the reasons mentioned above.

  I put really know what might be a problem with your Norton Internet Security but I guess its associated software question maybe there are a few compatibility issues with vista and NIS08. Who knows...

  In my opinion, you should first check the Symantec Web site for more details.
  Maybe these questions are mentioned somewhere in the FAQ section and maybe some updates or patches are available.

  Good bye

• My Toshiba laptop freezes!

  Whenever I connect and the office charge my laptop freezes and the only way it works is when I boot in safe mode! Can anyone help? I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-1BW on Windows Vista! Thaks in advance to anyone who can help!

  Hello

  You could try a more ancient date from the system restore - system restore can also be made with the Startup Repair tool
  If there is available Restore Points. Your Toshiba drives allow a startup repair. Just put in the DVD and
  then set the Boot Options on the DVD that you start or adjust the CMOS/BIOS to use the DVD as 1st boot device.
  (Usually F12 for device startup and F2 for the BIOS/CMOS settings options (for Toshiba).)

• HP Pavilion G6 - laptop freezes at the HP splash screen

  My laptop HP Pavilion G6 freezes at startup HP and not passed this initial page in windows. I tried pulling the battery, reset several times and ran a quick diagnosis. And after executing a quick diagnosis, she came back with the following error:

  Short hard drive DST Check: failure

  Fairlure ID: GLM9VR - 6B 8783 - MFPXOK - 60SN03

  Any help on what to do next? Does anyone else have this problem?

  This means that the hard drive has failed and needs to be replaced.  If you did the recovery set when the PC was new, then it is just a matter of execution of recovery after replacing the hard drive.  If you have not done the game, they may be available for purchase for a small price ($27US), a more complete model number is required before

• Satellite C50B freezes at startup after update BIOS to 5.10

  Hello
  I updated the BIOS of my Satellite C50 - B - 14 d (PSCMLE) to 5.10 (a final release early sept. 2015).
  The update succeeded, and the laptop runs as long as I do not install the drivers for the card WiFi (Atheros AR9485).
  If I try to install the driver (it does not matter which, those of the Toshiba website or those of the manufacturer, of), the laptop crashes before the end of the installer.
  Installing drivers from Device Manager makes the laptop freeze on when Windows starts (I tried 7, 8.1, and 10).
  Completely on the Windows logo screen it freezes, and I have to turn off it.

  In addition, the wired network adapter is not detected (it does not appear in Device Manager).
  The same question is described here (http://www.eightforums.com/general-s...ses-start.html), but no solution.

  Any suggestion? The BIOS may be downgraded? The BIOS update utility does not Flash an older version.

  Thank you!

  Hi indutry,

  I also have exactly the same problem since updating my BIOS to 5.10 with my Toshiba C50 - B - 14 d PSC MLE

  I have to start windows in safe mode without network to disable the Atheros AR9485 before restarting again in normal mode.
  I now have to use an external WiFi adapter as my LAN port is now also lack!

  Upset that the BIOS update has broken all my embedded network on the laptop.

  I tried to update the Atheros drivers to the latest version, but as soon as the device is turned on again the system crashes and we're back to square one.

  There is no solution that I can find other than turning off the unit and live without built in WiFi + LAN.

  I hope Toshiba can be remedied with a new BIOS update?

• Satellite M50: laptop freezing problem

  Hello

  Problems with a fairly new M50. Recently it started to freeze, can only switch with switch / stop. It takes at least 15 minutes before trying again as it always freezes the OS front. But after that time will always leave you on the operating system. But sometimes it will freeze in the operating system after 20 minutes. Reformatted 3 times and had run it once for 3 hours, but with an error messages like "mobile political load failed" and the missing drivers. Later frozen after restart of the 3rd.

  Can't understand why the delay? Search for viruses, etc., expelled Toshiba but no found hardware probs? Any suggestions? Is it a super virus that damaged the HD?

  Hi Alaux

  You reinstall the operating system with the recovery CD?
  If this isn't the case, please pick up the unit with the recovery CD. This CD is put on trial and the laptop it works without any problem.
  But if you used the recovery CD and the laptop freezes and has problems, please, don t install any 3rd programs. Check if the laptop if it works to clean the BONES.

• G50-70 freeze at startup

  Hi, I have a G50 - 70 is only around the age of 2 months. Since then, he has had a problem with the immediate freezing at startup on the Lenovo screen where white swirling points stop. It happens about 1 in every 2 or 3 times it starts.

  I thought it would be Bios so I installed the 2 updates that have been released without effect. I tried to turn it off to quick start and the alternative boot - USB, LAN options.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Today I made a new S20 (4105 - 94G) Win 7 x 64 BIOS: 60KT31AUS

• my laptop freezes

  my laptop freezes after a long period of use, it shines in red and green thin vertical lines of the screen across, my only option is to press on and hold the power button until it stops down?  It is overheating? and how can I avoid this?

  my laptop freezes after a long period of use, it shines in red and green thin vertical lines of the screen across, my only option is to press on and hold the power button until it stops down?  It is overheating? and how can I avoid this?

  You are in the forum MS Security Essentials anti-malware and anti-virus advice.  You should repost in the Windows forum.  However, here are some quick suggestions.

  (1) do you notice this always or only when certain applications are running?  Uninstall and reinstall these applications.
  (2) how many times you restart your PC?  If you are on a Vista OS, you must restart quite often (daily).
  (3) have you ever 'cleaned' temporary files?  If your PC can accommodate, if you run many applications (enough to force windows to exchange the hard disk in the background) etc, your PC can accumulate a lot of tmp files that slow things down as he tries to understand what it takes to run and what to leave to sleep.  Download and run the free and safe application called ccleaner, which will it clean up automatically when you start.
  (4) the concern of lines vertical me... don't know if it's just an artifact of graphics drivers try to follow on a PC that freezes or an indication of a problem.  You may need to call support for your laptop.
