  • Computer Toshiba laptop turns off after 3 seconds

    I can't understand what is happening with my computer, but I hope that this information will help you. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    There are 3 computers involved. One is a Toshiba laptop Satellite L300D Vista I had in December 2008 and the other two are Toshiba Satellite M110 XP portable computers that we got in December 2006 I think.

    The problem started with the Vista. It stops just one day and when I tried to turn it back on, it would show the Toshiba screen for a few seconds and then die. He was the life of the battery. Tried everything, could not, so I have restored the default computer. After it's on, I loaded my music in my external hard drive and a few days later, he crashed again. I restored it again and load my music back in, and then a few days later, he crashed again. Now when I try to restore it, it does not accept the restore disc. The hard drive flashes orange several times and the disc not spin fast enough to start doing anything.

    I decided to forget the vista computer, I had a year and a half... And started using my xp computer is a few years old. I've ONLY used to browse Craigslist (after I started using it instead of my Vista computer for a few days, after that the Vista) and not load any music in there. This computer has worked since then, but about a week after the death of my vista, my xp now has the same problem. It turns on for a while and then turns off immediately. Since they are the two Toshibas, they can use the same chargers so I would use the charger that comes with the vista or another, that I got off eBay a few years ago. Been using two wires forever and then everything suddenly this question not sure that it of a problem with the power or not, but one thing I noticed was my vista computer would make a rattling noise from inside the computer only when has been plugged in the charger from eBay, and I noticed my xp making the same sound as that connected with the charger from eBay just before you die too.

    My brother also has a toshiba satellite m110 xp laptop, and we tried a few things with the vista computer to try to make it work. A site offered to take the RAM and try to turn it on. Nothing that's happened. We took the ram from my brothers computer which works very well and put it in the vista. Nothing happened. We took the hard drive from her computer and put it in the vista and the computer DID start up (which was great cause I've not seen on in about a month) but it started up to a blue screen. Put us the hard drive in my brothers xp and the computer was working fine... For a few hours. Now the computer will not start correctly and we are trying to restore his computer but couldn't find the restore disc. Her hard drive was in my computer literally 15 seconds and his computer is now toast.

    I don't care about my laptop toshiba satellite m110 xp, but I want a solution for my toshiba laptop satellite L300D vista, and I also want to get my brothers running again because I ruined. I don't know much about computers, but my guess is that there is nothing wrong with the ram or hard drives, but something else in my vista computer that is ruining the hard drives. That still doesn't explain why my XP computer is turn off after a few seconds suddenly well. The only thing that the Vista and my XP have in common, is that they used the same power cords (which always worked fine)

    If anyone can help me out or point me in the right direction, which
    would be AMAZING! Thank you very much for your time

    If you have problems with the Toshiba recovery media, you will need to contact Toshiba.

    It's the Toshiba recovery process.

    Each manufacturer has their own particular recovery process.

    And as it is now failing to do recovery required, they would be the best people to contact about this.

  • Tecra A3 battery stops the charge after a second or two

    Hello

    I used the computer without the battery for a long time. Now, when I try to use the battery it is completely empty (it shows 0% º capacity).

    It starts to load when it is plugged in, but after a second or two, he stops, so it keeps the ability to 0%.

    The problem of any ideas of what can be?
    Thank you

    Hello

    Are you sure the battery stops charging to 100%?
    How have you checked it? What is the status of the battery LED?

    If you plug the battery of the laptop must be turned off.
    In addition, the charge process takes several hours if the battery is empty.
    I think you should connect the AC to the laptop and several waiting time.

    But if the battery will not charge, either the battery is dead or the portable electronic malfunctions.

  • videos on web pages stop playing after 5 seconds

    I just installed Windows XP Home Edition on an old Dell (Dimension s 4500) computer.  Most things work well; However, I notice that all the videos on websites play for about 5 seconds and then stops.  The full video continues to be downloaded and can be restarted by clicking on a different location on the timeline - after which he played for 5 seconds.  This happens with Internet Explorer and Firefox and all the sites I've tried.

    It seems I missed some setting somewhere.  Any ideas?

    Earlier, I posted a question on playback of videos from web pages (" videos to stop web pages play after 5 seconds '). " Since then, I have studied the possible fixes on Windows sites as well as the Dell support pages (the computer is a 4500 s Dell dimension running Windows XP Home Edition). All responses/advice found do not seem to solve my problem. All drivers and all plugins are here and up to date. The problem is not caused by lack of bandwidth or buffer - download videos at a reasonable speed. It's just that they will play only about 5 seconds. Then they stop and not restart by themselves.

    In addition, the videos have played very well until I reinstalled Windows XP from a boot disk, so I'm sure that all the works of material.

    It's driving me crazy! Can anyone help? Please, I beg you! »

    I wonder if it's a snap in IE and Firefox. You can try and disable them and see what happens.

  • To start Windows and then leaves after 38 seconds

    I have Windows XP on an Acer Aspire One netbook, which I bought used.  When I got to the top, it worked fine for half an hour. I was able to connect to internet, download, etc.  Then I stopped.  I started a little later with the power adapter is plugged and an SD card into the slot.  Although I don't think that's the problem, the SD card was not formatted to FAT.

    Now, the computer starts up, the Windows screen and then it goes to "check disk".  Most of the time, he gets exactly "22% complete" and then everything stops completely and instantly.

    Same thing if I go into the Bios: it stops after 38 seconds exactly.

    If I remove the battery and leave for a while, the system starts and not even on the desktop. I am able to open something (Control Panel for example) and then everything stops as before, but it is longer than 38 seconds.

    I have the Windows disc and the drive system supplied with the netbook, but I don't have an external CD/DVD drive for her.  I tried ALT + F10 and it does not help.  I tried to change the Bios 'Internet' boot and it does not help.

    I rebooted about 30 or 40 times.  Same results each time: 38 seconds and death; unless I pull the battery, then I can get on the desktop and then it stops.

    What else can I try?

    Hello

    ·         What is the model number of the Acer laptop?

    ·         You get the error message?

    ·         Were there recent changes made on the computer before the show?

    If the computer stops even in the BIOS, the problem is related to hardware. You can deal with this problem due to the overheating of the processor. Also check if the fans on the processor, heatsink heat and cases are running. I suggest you to contact the Acer Support about the issue.

  • System does not boot up... message is... "" peripheral USB on the detected... current situation system turns off after 15 seconds.

    Fifteen seconds after the system shuts down. It wiil also not afford to start or access the safe mode, the program installation or any other type of recovery mode, I could access normally.

  • WITH video card driver, windows freezes after 10 seconds after the Welcome screen, WITHOUT a driver, it works fine

    Hi guys,.

    I recently had the problem that when I start my computer, it freezes after 10 seconds when I saw the Welcome screen.
    I'm in safe mode, it works perfectly fine. I have uninstall ALL my Nvidia drivers and then restart the computer in normal mode, and then everything works fine. I go to the Nvidia website again, download the latest drivers and the same freezing problem happens again. I also tried with older drivers provided by Nvidia, still the same problem.
    Completely, I formatted my HDD and reinstalled Windows 7. I install drivers Nvidia and the same problem again.
    I have a Nvidia Geforce 250GTS
    The processor is Intel Duo Core converted E6850 (boxed)
    4 GB of Ram DDR2 Ram
    East of card mother ASRock G31M-S

    Everyone knows that the problem is?
    Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English, I tried my best :)

    Hello.

    The video card drivers enable the features of the card to use.  When in safe mode or with no driver installed only the basic functions of the card are used.  If the card is faulty, which is more likely, the defective part of the map has probably come into play with the full drivers installed.  This explains why it works with the Basic setting.

    See you soon.

  • Windows 8 Pro will sleep after 60 seconds of inactivity

    I just upgraded via a clean install of Windows 8 Pro. Now, the computer to standby / sleep after 60 seconds of inactivity. Interestingly, this problem occurs only once the machine has already gone to sleep once in this feeding cycle. In other words, if I start from a cold, start the machine will follow the diet plan appropriate (screensaver after 10 minutes, sleep after 2 hours) until what he went to sleep once, after which it will go to sleep every 60 seconds of inactivity.

    The system event log indicates "42 Kernel Power event: the system between sleep.". Reason to sleep: System Idle. "But it does after one minute of inactivity.

    I have reset all electrical energy plans, I created my own power management. Hybrid sleep is turned off. I have run the checker (sfc/scannow) system files and I've searched the forums largely unanswered.
    It is a customized desktop machine never had this problem on Windows 7, this is a new behavior for windows 8.

    So, after a lot of digging and try a lot of things, the solution below worked for me. But if someone can verify it worked for them, that would be great:

    It seems that maybe Windows to view the return of sleep as a remote activation which apparently expires to slow more quickly than the other wake ups. To change this feature, delete the following registry key: (perhaps using the power button to go back to sleep as suggested would be a work-around?)
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\238C9FA8-0AAD-41ED-83F4-97BE242C8F20\7bc4a2f9-d8fc-4469-B07B-33eb785aaca0\DefaultPowerSchemeValues
    To do this, Win Key + R (displays the run menu), and then type "regedit.exe" and navigate to the location of the key above. For more security, you need to save (export) this key before you delete it.
    Alternatively, you can change each of the secondary keys instead of remove them. Each corresponds to one of the power management. If you choose ACSettings you choose a behavior for when the machine is connected, the DCSettings are for the battery power. If you change the key switch 'decimal' value is in seconds and can be changed to any value you choose.
