Laptop restarting over and over

Laptop of Dell Inspiron N7010 is stopping and restarting over and over again. It won't do anything when I F8, F10 or Alt F10. I can't go to the safe MODE screen. It is right insofar as the Inspiron screen.  I can only F12 or F2 to get to the BIOS screen and I don't know that is there is anything that I can do it would help. Please note: originally, I tried to backup on a USB key, it wouldn't. They would stop the backup in the middle. Someone online suggested I provide protection against viruses and try to save again. That no longer works. Doesn't have the chance to set antivirus protection on.  He just started rebooting has its own.  I also noticed that on one side, he seems to be very hot. Help, please.  Thank you

Update: this problem has been fixed.

I could go into the BIOS and change the boot disk order.  Save and exit.

Put my Windows 7 disc into the computer, cut it off and started using the windows disc 7.

    Hi, when I change my wallpaper or display the taskbar then restarted windows 7 (asus laptop) taskbar autohide, and change wallpaper unwelcom why I don't

    Hello

    This who exactly are you referring to when you say "change unwelcom why I do?"

    If the taskbar is hidden, point to where you saw last it show again. If you don't remember where you saw it, try pointing to the bottom of the screen first, then to the sides or top of the desktop, if necessary. You may need to move the pointer almost off the desktop computer to show the taskbar.

    Show or hide the taskbar

    First remove all the third-party RAM installed on the computer and re - built-in. Then, restart and test, whether the KIMBERLEY process continues to have a barrette of faulty RAM MEMORY.

    Finally, what third party RAM brand has been installed? In these forums, because the iMacs are sensitive and benefit from the high quality of RAM, the Crucial two (buy it direct) and the two OWC (www.macsales.com) RAM are recommended because of their high quality and reasonable price. You can also have another hardware problem, in your case I would try to boot from the Partition Recovery (command + R to start) and open disk utility to see if the boot disk is found. You can also use Apple Hardware Test or Apple Diagnostics according to the age of the computer to run a test to see if two applications can detect any material error.

  • I want to buy Toshiba laptop with Ubuntu and windows

    I want to buy a new laptop.
    I don't want to pay 300 quid for yet another stupid Windows (if they are just a version properly, people don't need to keep buying new... oh wait... they make more money...).

    Others don't offer laptops with Ubuntu (and not windows).

    I find myself here, and Toshiba appear also does not provide laptops without windows.
    Why? Why Toshiba offer laptops with pre-installed Ubuntu with no windows?

    I use Ubuntu for 3 years, and altogether, he transformed my daily calculation. No more bloody virus, not 5 minutes log-ins/closures, no more program - crashing down the entire system. It is faster, safer, more flexible and * free *.

    But because Toshiba do not appear to offer it, they can't get my habit (I'm in Ireland, so Toshiba options open to me may be different in other countries).

    Hello

    First of all it s a forum from user to user and you get no response from Toshiba here in the forum.

    But as much as I know that Toshiba laptops are not delivered with the distributions Linux.
    Of course, you can install Linux if you want, but laptops are delivered with the Windows operating system. As far as I know with win 7 64 bit and 32 bit OS.

  • MBP-restarts wobbly and never stops...

    Happy 2016! My year starts well with my MBP mid 2014... He runs the last El Capitan, 1 G SSD.

    I had a couple of files that were on my desk that I couldn't remove. They were not visible to any application of trash I have. I couldn't delete them. I could not get information about them. They were PDF files, but I couldn't open them. They appeared when I tried to clean up some old attachments and I put them inadvertently on the desktop. I suspect them came from the app, Pro Email Archiver. I say, I think since I was using the Finder in time and do not pay attention to where the old attachments were, I wanted to just get rid of them. My bad. Anyway, last night these 4 files were still on my desk, and one was even overlapping on any screen I had open at the time.

    I Cocktail and I thought that maybe I could delete these files using the Cocktail party that deletes files that are stubborn. N ° which did not work. So I thought that, given that these files were invisible in looking them through the viewfinder, I would like to check display invisible files in a Cocktail. I rebooted. I think that the first time that I restarted it didn't reboot yet again so I could see that the files have disappeared and so I went back to invisible items Show Cocktail and unchecked. Restarted. And this is my MBP restarted again and again and again. I had 4 reboots, thinking that he can start this time. It runs through until the points appear on the desktop, then restarts. Whenever it restarts, I put my password. And the desktop. Then restarts.

    I have a clone drive which has been cloned last night and that's what I use now. He holds very well with the clone. I ran Disk Warrior and made a regeneration. I ran Drive Genius and everything seems to be there-a well repaired permissions and checked the hard drive.

    After everything I rebooted again, hoping that the use of these 2 apps solved the problem. Nope. Always keeps restarting. So I'm turning the Apple community in hopes of getting this problem. It is still under Apple Care, but I hope it's an easy fix.

    Nothing in the trash can by the way. And I think that as the computer starts up very well with the clone is not a software problem. Please put your thinking hats and tell me what you think I should do.

    Thank you very much for any help that you can give to this fear MeMaw! Judy

  • I work on a laptop running XP and I can't find how to adjust the brightness of the screen

    original title: screen brightness
    I work on a laptop running XP and I can't find how to adjust the brightness of the screen. He is not bright enough for the environment, in that I am currently working.
    Any help?

    Look in the BIOS (nothing to do with the operating system) and change first there - so it's also brilliant to (on battery vs. connected to power - these settings, you determine thus.)

    In Windows - you should be able to control the brightness * if * you have everything installed the appropriate drivers for your laptop * and * they chose to give you these controls (the true drivers/software from the video card manufacturer is usually done).

    Also - if the brightness is not sufficient because of the light of the Sun - then by adjusting it can't helped.  Not many mobile consumers have a screen that can be read in the light of the Sun.  There are laptops with special screens for this type of environment.  Crank your brightness might help - but if you do not have an anti-glare screen, etc...
