My Satellite laptop has been freezing randomly
Hello
I've seen a lot of posts on the subject, but no solution. So my laptop has been freezing at random the day I bought it. Today it happens much more often, this becomes ridiculously boring.
Is there a way to fix this?
> Once again, there was a notification that emerged after one of those who freeze soemthing mean in the sense of "there was a problem with amd (graphics card)?"but it was resovled."" It's all updated however.
This notification comes from the graphics card driver. It might be possible that there is a problem with the graphics driver or with the graphics chip.
Try to install the latest driver for Toshiba page. In case this doesn't help, recommend you to contact the service agents to check the hardware partsBut the previous user's right, its really hard to talk about issues that put t always appear or are difficult to reproduce

My PC has been freezing on me. I am running 32-bit Vista Home Premium.
My PC has been freezing on me. Everything just hangs and I have to use the reset button. I don't know why its happening, but its very predictable and only occurs under very specific conditions.
It happens ONLY when I have "Shut Down", leave my computer off for at least a few hours and then turn it back on. It does not matter if I leave the power on or off. It will freeze in a few minutes to turn on my PC.
Once I use the reset button, it freezes more until I have stop and wait for a few hours yet.
If I stopped and turn it back on in a few minutes, it does not freeze. I haven't checked if pre-empting the gel by stopping before the Frost occurs prevents occur, I'll probably test the next time I have to leave my PC turned off for an extended period of time.
If I use "Restart", it does not freeze. Although an old problem with very a decrease in performance after using "Restart" is still there. (Note: it is a very old problem that I've never been able to fix,.) I took several technology experts, and may not understand what is the cause either, but I found a temporary solution. Using Shut Down and then turn the PC back returns performance back to normal. Occurs when a reboot occurs as a result of the update of Windows too, so I just avoid using any form of "Restart" whenever possible, but I have always been updated Windows. I think that its not related to this problem of gel.)
If I put it on sleep mode and come back after many hours, it does not seem to freeze. Recently, it froze once after that, but it didn't happen since then, so it might be a fluke.
I don't know what is happening. It happened very rarely over the past 2 years but only started happening every time in the last 3 months. Windows told me recently that he recovered from a blue screen when it happened, but this message appeared only once so far.
Whenever it freezes, I mean a period of activity of the HDD for about 2 seconds. And then read/write rhythmic sounds half lasting one second time per second, which continues for about 10 seconds. After that, the hard drive noise settle in a low kind of drone. I can barely hear the hard disk read or write something, but its much softer. It doesn't seem to change this State no matter how long I leave it.
I think its some sort of hardware failure that only happens when the PC components are 'cold', if that's even possible, but I can't be sure.
Speculation as to what is the cause of software or hardware? If it's a hardware problem, is there a particular part of the PC which would cause it to freeze predictable in such a specific circumstance?
I use mode sees as a temporary solution instead of closing my PC, but I fear that the problem will be extended later.
My motherboard is old enough that my CMOS battery is dying, it became apparent a month ago. I'll soon change the battery. I don't know if the problem might be related.
Hello
Start by making sure that the software is running properly and change this battery CMOS ASAP.
And always make sure that the latest hardware drivers are downloaded and installed on your computer manufacturer's Web site.
Go to their site > drivers download section > your model number > operating system > drivers > download and install.

When I open Firefox, it opens to the iDIVI homepage. As far as I know, I have never agreed to this amendment. Why what happened? My computer has been corrupted? How can I remove this and continue to have firefox as my homepage?
You can use the SearchReset extension to reset preferences to default values.
Note that the SearchReset extension runs only once and then uninstalls automatically, so it will not appear on the page "> Firefox Add-ons" (topic: addons).
Your list of details of the system shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time you start Firefox.
The user.js file is present than if you or another software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be here.
You can check its contents with a text editor (right click: open with) If you do not create this file yourself.The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.
Delete a possible user.js file and files numbered prefs-# .js and rename (or delete) the file prefs.js to reset all the prefs by default, including the prefs set via user.js and pref which is no longer supported in the current version of Firefox.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

Hello
If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to

resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be harder to detect as
the cause.No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
the regular windows when you can.TDSSKiller.exe. - Download the desktop - so go ahead and right-click on it - RUN AS ADMIN

I tried to post a coupon on xianet and my computer has been taken over by a Trojan horse.
I tried to post a coupon on xianet and my computer has been taken over by a Trojan horse. My report says: Win32/fakeSysDef. He directs me to a data recovery site that charges $75 to solve the problem. No idea how to do to remove the Trojan horse?
Microsoft support addressed my problem and Javier took control of it and solved the problem.
It has been pretty smooth how I got the Trojan horse. When I tried to display a coupon, a dialog box came asking if I wanted to download a software. I clicked 'Cancel' and this is meant to 'run '. That's when all this started.
Thanks for help.
