  Have you recently added any hardware? Have you updated any drivers just before this started? (Check
  Panel configuration-updates of Windows to see if all drivers have been updated it there all the time it started)
  Main likely culprits are video driver, other great drivers, memory and antivirus/antispyware/security
  products could be at fault as well as reader questions.

  Use the troubleshooter below and refer to the following message to drivers and memory when you get to
  These sections and then back to the resolution of the problems according to the needs.

  BCCode: 50 0 x 00000050

  Cause

  The BCCode 50 usually occurs after the installation of the installation of a faulty material or failure of
  material (usually associated with defective RAM, either main memory, L2 RAM or RAM video cache).

  Another common cause is a defective system service installation.

  Antivirus software can also trigger this error, as can a corrupted NTFS volume.

  Solve the problem

  Solve a defective hardware problem: If the material has been added to the system recently, remove it to see
  If the error recurs. If the hardware failure existing, remove or replace the faulty component. You must run
  Diagnostics of material provided by the manufacturer of the system. For more information about these procedures, see the owner
  Manual for your computer.

  Fix a defective system service: Disable the service and confirm that this resolves the error. If so,.
  Contact the manufacturer of the system service on a possible update. If the error occurs during the system
  startup, restart your computer, and then press F8 at the menu character mode that displays the operating system
  choice. In the Windows Advanced Options menu that results, select the last known good Configuration
  option. This option is most effective when a pilot or a service is added at a time.

  Solve a problem of antivirus software: Disable the program and confirm that this resolves the error. If she
  is the case, contact the manufacturer of the program about a possible update.

  Fix a corrupted NTFS volume: Run Chkdsk /f /r to detect and repair disk errors. You must
  Restart the system before the start of the analysis of disk on a system partition. If the SCSI hard disk, check for
  problems between the SCSI controller and the drive.

  Finally, check the system log in Event Viewer for additional error messages that might help identify the
  device or the driver that generated the error. Disable the cache in memory of the BIOS might also resolve it.

• Satellite L675D: Blue error screen after upgrading to Windows 8

  Hello

  I recently updated my laptop to Windows 8 Toshiba and whenever I use it, after 5-10 minutes, I get a page of the Blue error screen and restart the laptop.

  The problem is really annoying.

  I discovered that if I plug the battery charger, the phone works normally, but I want to solve the problem correctly.

  What should I do?

  I m wondering about your model of laptop. What cell phone do you have exactly?

  Regarding your question:
  I would like to get this right, with the battery it works ok, but when the AC adapter is plugged, it crashes?

  What happens when you connect the front adapter from the laptop would be turned on?

  How have you installed the Windows 8? Move the laptop Win 7 to Win 8 or have you installed Windows 8 clean system?
  Are installed all the drivers Toshiba Windows 8?

  Another idea:
  Go to Windows 8 Device Manager and uninstall the device called compatible ACPI control method battery
  Restart the machine and check how it works.

• Windows XP will not load past the Blue error screen

  Hi, wondering for a while if someone can help me...

  My xp system will not load past the Blue error screen that is displayed when the computer stopped suddenly or inadequate.

  No matter what are the measures that you choose to take (safe mode, the most recent configurations... etc) the system will just beyond the blue screen on the windows logo download page, where the loading bar moves about 10 seconds before returning to the blue loading page.

  So far I have tried to leave the computer as long as an unused months while I was abroad, remove the battery for varying amounts of time and leaving the computer as long as a day.

  In the absence of a recovery disk, I have no idea how to do to return to the form and would like to receive advice or suggest, keeping in mind I'm not a computer genius (if had'nt you may have guessed). Preferably, without losing my element pictures and videos stored on the hard drive, but it's just preference.

  Thank you, Jay

  Hello

  It does not seem good friend if the Windows operating system does not start even using safe mode, then I don t think you will be able to run the operating system without new OS reinstallation. :(

  To back up data from the HARD drive I recommend that you connect the internal HARD drive to external USB HDD controller and a backup of the HARD drive on another computer.

  Then you could try to reinstall the operating system on your laptop using the Toshiba Recovery CD

• Blue error screen Windows 8 - Code 0 x 0000001

  Hello

  I turned on my PC yesterday and it displays a blue screen error with the details below

  Recovery

  Your PC could not start properly

  After several tests, the operating system on your PC could not start, so it needs to be repaired.

  Error code: 0-xC0000001

  You will need to use the tools of recovery on your installation media. If you don't have any installation (such as a disc or USB) media, contact your system administrator or the computer manufacturer.

  Press Enter to try again.

  Press F8 for startup parameters.

  If I press Enter to try again, the Windows logo with points appears briefly before the screen goes black and nothing seems to happen.

  If I select F8 and try to start safe mode I get a pop-up box "Windows is unable to complete the installation in Mode without failure. To continue installing Windows, restart the computer. »

  Yesterday, I was able to get the recovery options where I chose Restore (not too worried for my files at this point) and the screen showed he was recovering but when it reaches 100% it went to a black screen and nothing happened for a long time. Now it's back to the Blue error screen.

  I have no installation media but I do not have a backup of my files and I think that partitions etc. on a USB key.

  Can someone help me with this?

  Thank you

• Satellite M30: Blue error screen - how to diagnose what it is?

  I have a hardware problem, but I'm not sure of the exact nature. Even if I look like the hard drive or something to communicate with her.
  About two weeks ago, I started to notice performance problems when loading something from the internal hard drive: overall function of the computer (such as the movement of the mouse, mp3 playback) became embarrassed when the hard drive was loading (economy was less of a problem).

  This was NOT the case when loading data or execution of programs from a disk usb external hard. Today, I got a blue screen informing me that this accident was probably due to new hardware or software, followed by a physical memory dump and a severe judgment. I restarted the computer, but had the same problem after the login screen.

  Trying to boot into safe mode does not work either and after some tests it never got to the login screen more - a few seconds after the beginning of boot there was a flash of a screen blue, followed by an immediate halt.
  In any case, I used the recovery dvd - rom product but the problem is still there, which means that I can start now but I get the same blue screen every hour at least (seems to correlate with usage).

  Instead of running off to buy a new hard drive I want to be sure this is the problem (alone), and not a problem of motherboard or what have you.

  Where my question: how I can diagnose what's wrong with my laptop?

  Hello

  Well, if you n t have no experience in hardware or laptops so it of not easy to locate the fault.
  As jmatthews says you can try to check the Blue error screen. If you google around you will find also information about this error massage.
