  Download the Internet OmniDiskSweeper and Grand Perspective (both free) and open them. They will show all your files and respective sizes. Transfer to an external HARD disk or remove files, that you no longer want on your MBP.

• Satellite Pro R850-15F - freezing randomly and the fan speeds up

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro R850-15F who gave me four years in refurbished condition and so it is quite old.
  I have recently installed Windows 10 and things seemed to work very well.

  However, last week, I noticed that at least once a day my laptop freezes randomly and immediately the internal fan accelerates, becomes much stronger and a cold air. Whenever this happens, I turned off the laptop and turn it back on it.

  After that, it works normally again until the next time it freezes. I don't know anything about computer hardware, but I suspect that it is a problem of series and I wanted to get some advice in case my laptop is close to dying.

  If anyone has any help or advice or suggestions to solve the problem, then I would be extremely grateful if you would contact me.

  Hope to hear from someone soon,

  Flashback

  On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here. To me, it looks like problem with some background process that as a result of extremely high CPU usage that locks the phone whole.
  High CPU usage means more heat in such situation the fan starts to run a lot faster.

  Have you noticed this behavior with a specific action or the use of certain applications?

  I bought a laptop tailor-made and it turns out that there is a counterfeit Windows xp version. I want to upgrade to windows 7 instead of buy the version xp again. is this possible?

  You will need to purchase a full commercial copy of Windows 7 and do a clean install. You cannot use a Windows XP hacked as an operating system that you are eligible for an upgrade. Make sure that there are Windows 7 drivers for the hardware of the laptop. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  ===========================================

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  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 DriverView - set
  SEE drivers to hide Microsoft - update those with Dump in their names. (Also
  updated the BIOS and drivers from the 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
  Poster: 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 Maker as replacements and system manufacturer of device which are
  the most recent. Control Panel - write - graphics card - device manager
  the brand and complete model of your video card - double click - tab of the driver-
  Note the version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this can do nothing
  MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
  This will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard
  If there are 3rd party with their own software and drivers and the other main device drivers
  you have.

  Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restore)
  and site (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get the manufacturer and device
  their latest versions. (Look for the system to update the BIOS, Chipset and software updates
  Site of the manufacturer 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 are
  installation actually appears. This is because that some rollback of drivers before the
  later is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a driver - reboot.
  Make sure that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW to the device makers DO NOT RUN THEIR
  SCANNER - check manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using
  the above methods is preferable to ensure the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system
  and device manufacturers are located)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable driver facilities
  in the updates of Windows, which leaves on Windows updates, but it will not be installed
  pilots who are generally older and cause problems. If updates provides a new
  driver then hide it (right click on it) and then go get new ones manually if
  you want.

  Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however remember to check
  your antivirus, the main drivers and BIOS update programs and also to solve problems
  with the first method cleanboot.

• Laptop freezes after BIOS update

  Today, March 22, 2015, I installed an automatic update from Toshiba for my laptop satellite. Since updating my laptop crashes seconds after the start, displaying the message: "Unhandled System exception in thread (btfilter.sys).

  Can someone help me?

  To talk about possible solutions, it would be very useful to know which model of laptop you have, and what system is pre-installed.

  In addition, it would be interesting to know if you ever tried to get the laptop back to factory settings.
  If you do not have in the past, I recommend you to perform this restore and to sett the laptop back to factory settings

• Tecra A5: Publisher 2003 is running slowly and not all images will display

  I have a problem with the performance of publisher 2003 when the default printer is set to an aculaser Epson C900 since a laptop Toshiba Tecra A5.
  The editor runs slowly and has not all images. This works if the default printer is set to a different printer.
  This problem does not affect other mobile brand.

  Publihser maybe sort of speak to the printer driver and clash with another application or installed driver for the Toshiba.

  Hi Simon

  You will be very happy if someone can give you a precise answer. As far as I know, he has no problems known with Microsoft products.

  If you see the Toshiba download page you will find instructions for facilities document stating the software preinstalled on your device. It is really not known to me that some of them can cause this strange problem. I recommend contacting Microsoft support because they have more experience with own products.

  Sorry but I have no other comment on your topic.

  Good luck!

• 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

• 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.

  These pages can help with your sleep/hibernation problems, the first is HP and the second is to WindowsEightForums:

  Also, here are a few tweaks that you can watch in windows 8, which can be useful for performance.

  Set the performance of the slow system (Windows 8)

  Also you can watch latency spikes. Essentially, it is an application, driver, or a combination that will push the CPU to its limits and so your system will have spikes where the transformer is overloaded. Requests will be have lag or stop responding, audio or video will pause or break up.
  
  I found the following page on Sysnative that addresses this problem very well, with lots of graphics and links to Microsoft support pages. It will help you to isolate the cause.
