• My Compaq laptop just turns off

  I have an old Compaq laptop of 2 years with an AMD Athlon x 2 chip.  I just added RAM (from 2 GB to 3 GB). Simply, it turns off after a while when I do intense things like games and disk imaging. It does not freeze, it just SE releases. I think that it is overheating. Adding RAM does computers running more hot? What can I do? Chris Mah

  Download/run the parser above to check the compatibility of the RAM with what already existed.

  If it's over-hreating, make sure that your machine is well ventilated and clean.

  You may need a Tech to open your laptop to clean the inside.

  You can buy cans of compressed air to clean it.

  See you soon.

• Why my computer just turn off suddenly while I use it?

  Please help me understand my problem

  The most frequent causes for this are overheating and bad RAM, although I've seen some buggy programs that can do this as well.  If you have a laptop running on battery, low battery can cause this as well.

  To check the warm-ups, download the freeware 'CoreTemp' software and run it to control the temperature of your CPU.  If it becomes too hot, check for dust inside the chassis or a fan does not work.

• Satellite Pro A60 has just turned off and won't come back

  My Satellite A60 laptop just turned off and will not go there is nothing no sound no lights nothing.it ran on sector when it happened.

  any help apreciated

  Hello, Heidi

  Remove the battery, connect your laptop adapter only and try starting your laptop running. When the laptop boot and OS is fully loaded, wait a few minutes and reinsert the battery.

  If everything is OK look carefully if the battery will be charged correctly and when battery LED is green (fully charged battery) try to turn off your laptop as usual. Turn it back on and carefully monitor what is happening exactly.

• Satellite Pro A100 PSAACE just cut off completely

  Everything was in working order last night. Today when I tried to use my laptop in the University, after awhile the laptop just cut off completely (not 'window stops', literally just cut off). At this point I noticed was the charge indicator not illuminated.

  So I checked that it was in the form correctly and everything was connected, who he was, but still no joy. I think it is maybe that my charger is dead on me.
  But I'm not positive, as when I remove the battery and reinsert it, the "power connection" comes on, even if the charge light.
  I could put my laptop then reinsert the battery, but it would be cut at random (probably because she have relatively no power left in it).

  Does anyone know if that means anything?
  When it is on, but not connected to a power supply when you move the battery icon... He thought it was still connected to a power source (if I had the power cord in or out of the laptop).

  Sorry if this seems obvious to some, just I would prefer not to buy a new charger to see that there is a problem with the socket on the back of my laptop, or a problem with the laptop battery etc. If you unplug your laptop, then remove and reinsert the battery, it lights the led "connection voltage?

  Hope to hear some reviews soon, that could help me cope with my laptop troubles.

  Thanks for reading,

  Hello

  Simply put your laptop turns off automatically. Is this good?

  Well, for me it sounds a little like the laptop stopped automatically to prevent material damage due to a temperature high.
  Perhaps this was caused due to overheating.

  This can occurs if the modules of cooling don t work properly and can not cool with a maximum return. Generally, this is related to dust and debris blocking the cooling fans.

  This happened to me too many times there... I cleaned the cooling fan using a jet of compressed air and it helped.

  Maybe you should check this too...

• Satellite Pro A10 just turned off with warning message

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro A10 I've had for about 2 years now. During the 2 ~ 3 days I started to have a problem very serious and boring, and you're doing something to run MS word thro to play to a very high technical game (this game can be played on an old 486 no probs) the laptop after about 20 minutes (may vary) usage turns off just with warning message it immediately restarts without any problems and then after different durations down again and again :, (. everything got a clue what the hell happens, please help. :))

  Colin B

  Hello Colin

  Portable described behavior is specific to the overheating of the material. If the laptop is not properly cooled the temperature of the material at the level critical and just turns off without warning.

  Solution is cleaning. The device must be cleaned and dust should be removed. After doing this unit can take a new breath and you won't have this problem again. You will see that run cooling fan will also soften than before.

  Good bye

• Satellite A75-5211 just turns off

  Hi, I had this problem in the past once and he's back now. My computer is a Satellite A75-5211. When I play any game on it (like MVP Baseball 2005), at some point the computer just turns off without any warning. It's as if all the power is just part of him! I can start again, and then everything is normal.

  In the past, the problem disappeared for a few months, but it happens regularly now. If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it. Also, I use the program hardware sensors monitor 4.2 and it tells me that my CPU1 temperature is 60.0 ° c, while the temperature of the HARD drive is 37.0

  If this problem cannot be solved by a technician in person, where is the nearest place that I can go? I live in Canterbury, UK.
  Thank you
  Sebastian

  To me, this looks also because of overheating.
  This probably occurs because the game is a heavy application that requires complete laptop. In this case the CPU and graphics card produce a lot of heat, and therefore the temperature rises to a higher level.
  Then the operating system shut down the laptop to prevent damage.

  As mentioned you should check the fans and cooling modules and possibly try to clean with the vacuum cleaner. In addition, there should be enough free space around the laptop to the circulation air properly.

  Hello

  On some machines, the pilot for 11 series IMEI has been known to cause that kind of question of the judgment, so it may be worth trying an earlier version.

  You can use the following method to install an earlier version of the driver IMEI.

  Download driver IMEI on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp66001-66500/sp66228.exe

  Disable your wireless card (should be f12 ).

  Open your download folder and run the installer - it warns you that it is an earlier version, but simply continue.

  When finished, restart the laptop.

  If the computer shuts down correctly, turn on your wireless adapter and use the utility on the following link to prevent Windows 10 to update automatically the driver IMEI again.

• "due to an unidentified problem, windows cannot display windows firewall settings" fixed but still can not visit some sites and the laptop now turns off the coast on me. What should I do?

  I have an Apire one laptop with Windows xp service pace 3. I had to restore it to factory about 3 years ago. Some time after that the sound system began to slow and the Synaptics mouse stop working properly. I can move the pointer, but the left click does not work. It works in safe mode but not in normal windows. I used the Acer eRecovery for correct, but it did not work. I tried to download the driver for the mouse on the internet, but some how it could stop the download. I gave up at tring to fix. Some time in late March or early April, I couldn't access internet and after 22:30. I ran the diagnosis that is provided by internet explore and he said that the HTTP and HTTPS worked but the FTP did not work. AVG later told me my firewall is disabled and there was the possibility to reactivate it and I did. After internet explore stop allowing you to enter certain sites that I wanted to enter, I ran the Diagnostics again and he told me that a firewall client has been the cause of the problem. I tried to control my firewall setting, but had that "due to a problem not identified, windows cannot display the firewall settings". I thought AVG was the problem, so I have unintalled then he returned and attempted to access the firewall but got the same message. I typed in Google MySapce and found this site. I followed a few directions given to others in the thread started by joecarpenter33 and discovered that my firewall has been deleted and Base filtering engine has been deleted also. I downloaded and ran Malwarebytes ANti-Malware and SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition and tdsskiller. MBAM has found a Trojan. The results of the analysis is less to:

  Hi, I have my Toshiba Satellite p30 and only works on battery. This unit operate on sector or only on the battery as after the period of time go down the warning, then closes. The orange light fades in and out, but seems that it will only fully charge when the unit is turned off completely.

  I only just received this unit so bit of a novice.

  normally, the battery should always charge until it is full when the power is connected.
  If you have an orange light flashes, it means that something is wrong. Maybe your battery is faulty or something else. This should be checked by a technician.

• LAN connectivity turns off completely (patches after XP Reinstall :-()

  Hello

  I use a Windows XP SP3 & my os of Intel D915GVWB motherboard. I use AVG free antivirus & my windows all updates are only on the date.

  What I've been finding that after a few days, my network (LAN) turns off completely, I can not connect to the Internet. I can't see anything with the yellow question mark in device under network adapter Manager. In fact the branch of network adapter is totally absent here. So I check the hidden items, but the Intel Pro 100 n/w adapter is missing. It shows that some in the list but all irrelevant.

  Also, when I try to reinstall the driver through my CD of intel, nothing works. Infact the CD intel don't watch not the driver LAN on menu autorun. It shows just the audio, the graphics accelerator and the chipset. No LAN driver doesn't show at all!

  I tried would continue the XP using my original CD but its does not work. Finally, I have to reinstall my XP again. It takes a lot of time & I'm losing all my data on the C drive.

  Can anyone suggest me what can be the issue. Why this network drivers go off & why.

  Have you tried running "sfc/scannow"?

  To use the tool Checker (SFC) system files (described in:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310747 ):

  You must have your Windows XP installation CD and the CD of Service Pack 3.

  If you do not have the SP3 CD, or order it (U.S. / Canada , Europe, Africa , Asia or South America ) from Microsoft or download the ISO (here ) and burn it.  You will need the installation CD and the SP3 CD.  Type:

  sfc/scannow

  It will ask for the installation CD, insert it and take a break.  After a while he also want the Service Pack 3 CD.  Occasionally, SFC may want to replace things; Let him.

  SFC can also, say that you have bad CD SP3.  I don't have a definitive answer to this problem.  You may be able to overcome by removing SP3 that you installed and re-setup from the SP3 CD then run SFC again.  (I think that it is because there are different language versions of service packs (include Multilingual).) ( Be sure to select the language appropriate for your ISO ).

  Vote if this is useful.  Click on brand or propose as answer if that answers your question.  It will help others find the answer in the future.
