My Satellite P15 is very slow

Hello.
My p15 S479 TS closely needs 2 minutes to start. It's frustrating. It takes also like 2 minutes to close. I tested my computer for viruses and *, deleted all of the programs that was not supplied with the computer. I do a lot of backup dvd, and sometimes the computer crashes just in the middle of the backup. Once you even would not stop it and the screen says "shutting down...". "all night. I'm confused.
What's wrong? What can I do? THX

Hello

In just a few words: I think your laptop must be? pure? preinstalled. I have gift? t know what you are doing with your laptop, but after a long period of? intensive use? the laptop in bulk performance.

I recommend you backup all of your important data and preinstall unit with recovery media delivered. Create two partitions, set up the device to work with applications and settings you need and after that, you can create your own recovery image. Save it on the second partition and this period, you can reinstall the image whenever you need. After 20 minutes, you will have your favorite configuration whenever you need.

Good bye

    that you have correctly installed all the drivers for this machine? It's really important, because without the correct drivers you won´t be able to get the full potential of your material.

  • satellite 2520cdt is very slow after replacing HARD drive

    My Satellite 2520 CDT is the HARD Mk 4309 MAST 4.3 GB default disk. I replaced the with the Toshiba MK 2016 GAP of 20 GB.
    I use Windows 98 since the original installation CD. The laptop is now very slow, it takes minutes to start programs, etc.

    I installed the latest BIOS with no improvement. Probably the laptop cannot manage the size of the HARD drive.

    Is there a solution?

    Hello

    I had the same suggestion. I think that the large size of the HARD disk is responsible to slowly start performance. But I wonder why BIOS recognize the HARD drive?
    However, try to defragment the HARD drive.

  • Satellite U920T/01Y - very slow internet

    I just bought a U920T Satellite. It runs at very slow speeds of the internet. Speedtest shows generally between 1 and 2 Mbps I have tried other than laptops sitting next to him, I can get a speed of 18-20mbps.

    Y at - it a driver update will fix this or is it a hardware failure it will take to repair?

    Hardware failure?
    I doubt

    First of all, it would be interesting to know what link are you using? LAN or WLan?

    Second: the laptop was connected to the power adapter or its operation with battery?

    Third: internet speed depends on connection internet, server, and all the devices that share the same line so if several laptops and other devices are connected to the same router, the data rate could be lower

  • Satellite Pro U300 very slow opening programs

    Hi all

    I bought a Satellite Pro U300 in February 2008 and I only use it 3 - 4 times since then... It is very slow at the opening of the programs (I have only one statistical program installed) and Web pages and creates problems when I try to download other programs that have a different version of Windows Vista.
    I really regretted buying this phone and I'm looking for someone to sell.

    Until I do, I was wondering if I could uninstall Windows Vista and install Windows XP for example, or do anything else that would make my phone fun to use.

    Hello

    The preinstalled operating system ran slowly because many applications are running in the background.
    My laptop was slow too to experience of applications have been disabled.

    You can disable in MSCONFIG.
    Type msconfig window RUN and check the Startup tab.
    You will find the software that could slow down the operating system.

    With regard to the installation of Win XP.
    Yes, you can also install Win XP. By using the Win XP laptop should be little faster because Win XP doesn t need a lot of material resources.

  • Satellite Pro A100 very slow, especially at the start

    Hi, I just bought a laptop Satellite Pro A100. In general, I'm very happy with it, but I find it very slow especially at startup. It may take more than 5 minutes to be completely started.

    Are there settings or settings that I can do to fix this?

    Hello

    I agree with the previous user of the forum. I often heard that Norton slows down the system quickly. Try to remove it and test it again.

  • Satellite A300D PSAKCC very slow for no reason

    System: Toshiba A300D (PSAKCC - 01300Y)
    OS: Vista 64-bit, SP2
    (Everything is factory)

    Hi, I got home Wednesday night from work and my computer was VERY slow. It also blocks no foreseeable reason since and I also noticed IO errors when you try to back up some audio files on my external.
    * Example: * "error 0x8007045D: the request could not be performed because of an i/o device error." (when you try to move a specific .wav file)

    In addition, a new symptom that recently and currently makes himself aware for me is: when typing this thread the guest moves randomly at unpredictable times, usually with the result of finishing or from a word in an unwanted random location in the message. Hard to explain, really, but I thought I would include, because it is extremely annoying and seems so virus-ey. Sounds to me like a program, it's stealing priority; my friend think it is Windows Update.

    About 8 hours before this activity slow/hanging (before I leave for work), it was working fine, but I noticed
    localized only in Google maps as suspended similar activity.

    * What I've done so far: *.
    -back up important files on my external
    -run process Explorer and verified using CPU, RAM and i/o to find nothing extraordinary (low cpu, use of the normal RAM, low use of e/s)
    -made a virus using Microsoft Security Essentials scan

    I'm at a loss as to what I can do at this point; It is unbearably slow... I can't use internet at least that I'm in the safe
    mode, that is, I can't use my video or audio devices... =)
    Funny is the 3 year warranty I got away it just expired, so if it's a failing hard drive, Future Shop has done a good job of prediction of the obsolescence... jerks.

    Hi mate

    It of difficult to say what might cause this exactly.
    I searched on similar questions on Microsoft Knowledge base page and found this interesting doc:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/952272
    It has exactly the same symptom described: the request could not be performed because of an i/o device error (0x8007045D)

    It s required to run the command Chkdsk X: /R
    In this command, x is a placeholder that represents the drive letter of the volume you want to check. So if you want to check the partition or HARD drive then replace X by the letter of the partition or HARD drive.

    I also recommend to check the HARD drive using 3rd party tool called: Drive Fitness Test.
    You can download for free.

    Run and check the might of HARD drive, it must be replaced.

  • My Satellite C660 is very slow

    Hello

    I have a C660-2E1, who still runs very slow because I bought it two years ago and I know that I should have done something before now.

    I noticed that it has only 1 GB of RAM, this could be the problem?

    I went to replace the 1 GB with 4 GB Module.Does does anyone know if this should be a 2 X 2 GB matched pair or can I use a single module?

    I understand that as I am running Windows 7 Home Edition that it treats a maximum of 4 GB?

    > I noticed that it has only 1 GB of RAM, this could be the problem?

    Yes, 1 GB of RAM is certainly not enough to get the laptop works well.
    I recommend you to upgrade the laptop up to 4 GB of RAM or more, the RAM can be expanded up to 8 GB of RAM (2 x 4 GB of RAM)

    The compatible RAM modules are:

    2 GB PC2 DDR3 1333 MHz (number PA3918U-1M2G)
    4GB PC2 DDR3 1333 MHz (number PA3918U-1M4G)

  • Satellite P300-156 very slow

    Hi people,

    my laptop is very slow, that pop ups always happen even on the highest setting and like crazy when I bought it I do not have any disk backup!

    Hello

    Is your computer slow?
    Why you n t try to clean the BONES and the registry using CCleaner?
    CCleaner is free and helps you to get rid of some waste that is stored on the HARD drive.

    You should also check the msconfig
    In the Startup tab, you must turn off the process and tools that are not important for you but starts at the beginning of the boot process

    PS: If you n t created the recovery disc then you could try to order it from here:

  • Satellite A200-1BP: very slow performance

    I'm not completely satisfied with the performance of my laptop Satellite A200-1BP.
    It is so slow that I expected although it has 2 GB of ram.

    What could be the problem?
    It is thanks to Norton Antivirus what?

    How can I configure my phone for maximum performance?

    Someone help please!

    Maximum performance is fairly general term. I hope that you know very well that Vista needs far more resources than Windows XP Home edition and, in general, it might be a little more slowly. Of course, performance is dependent on all the background running processes.

    To be honest, the first thing I did is to delete preinstalled Norton. I'm sure that without Norton System work better. Please also check all the tools and utilities that begin with OS (START > RUN > MSCONFIG) and disable all the stuff, you do not need.

    What you can also do is to disable all hardware components, you must not like modem or PCMCIA slot. As you can see there are many ways to optimize the operating system and to run faster.

  • Satellite T130 is very slow

    Hello guys,.

    Two months ago I have my Toshiba Satellite T130 branch, but I have a serious problem. That it becomes slower and slower... Whenever I run a program (winamp, Skype, etc.) or even to open the control panel I have to wait for a long time and sometimes in some occasions it is said 'Don't answer...' What should I do?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I recommend you to download and install TuneUp Utilities program. This is shareware, but you can use it for free for a month. It cleans up your registry, deletes files in double and other useless officials. And as complement, download Raxco Perfect disk or Diskeeper to defrag your hard drive.
    Your system will work quickly as a new.

  • Satellite Pro P300 - very slow WiFi connection

    Toshibe Satellite Pro P300 with built in the Atheros AR9281 wireless.

    Running Windows 7.

    ESET NOD32 Antivirus.

    BIOS 2.5

    All the latest versions of the drivers installed including the driver Atheros 8.0.0.225.0 wireless.

    Wireless is annoying...

    Sometimes fails to find the router (Belkin 54g, connected to the Modem cable Motorola (Virgin B/B is the access provider, 10 Mbps)).

    When he finds, connects ok, but sometimes it is impossible to browse web pages - just behave as if there is no connection.

    Bit torrent works also very slowly (in general 0.5Mbit / s depending on the number of peers etc.). Not a port forwarding issue with the router - using utorrent that indicates that the relevant port is open.

    When I connect to the router with an ethernet cable, everything works a treat - much faster and rock solid connection. uTorrent has no hit 10Mbit/s problem at all.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you very much...

    Alan.

    Hello

    You should first check if your BIOS is up to date.
    If an older version of BIOS is installed then you could update the BIOS.

    It is also advisable to update the installed WLan driver.
