my screen goes black when my laptop is in sleep mode and I have to move my mouse to get the sandbox screen
My screen goes black and I have to move my mouse to return to the screen. It becomes a big problem when I watch a movie and the screen turns black during the good parts. How can I stop these interruptions?
Hello
It seems that the computer will sleep when it is inactive. I suggest you to change the settings on the computer's power options and check. Refer to the below links to change the settings of the sleep and other power options.

Re: Satellite L350 - screen goes black when I try to play
I have a laptop Toshiba L350 Sat. Its currently running on Windows Vista. Caused by a virus, I recently had to reinstall Windows. The laptop is now free from virus.
My problem is that when I try to play some games that I have the screen goes black and I have to do a forced restart using the power button. There are no other noise running in the background, and Ctrl alt del does not work either.
Is or has anyone else suffered from this problem and if so how they remedy? I'll try to re-installthe drivers when I get home this morning, but I can't think of anything that could be the cause of the problem...
Any help would be appreciated
Hello
Which disc you used to reinstall Windows?
Normally, if you use the all Toshiba Recovery disk should work fine after that. These parameters are pre-tested by Toshiba.
In addition, you can try to clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This could blow the dust of fans cooling and, therefore, it of not necessary to disassemble the laptop.

When I save/save as/open/etc and go into my pictures, it is always in the thumbnails not what I set as. Why?
For example: I "Print screen" my office. I'm going to paint. I paste the image. I go to file - save. He opens my pictures. And the icons in there are miniature, list is not like I put everything else. I've changed it many times, but it's always the thumbnails.
Maybe all is not set as I want. But I'm sure it is.
Windows Paint is a very limited application... the
question of what you describe is the expected behavior.
It will not recognize your global default
settings in folder options.The following freeware is a better way of
create screenshots. You can set if the
screenshots are saved in the folder of
your choice... as bmp, jpg, gif, png or tif...
with a single click.(FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)

Firefox does not open in full screen on the task bar and I have to go over it to see the web page.
Firefox window is sometimes "off screen" somehow. Often, you can force it to appear on the screen by right clicking on the thumbnail image just above the taskbar and choose expand. Does it work?
A possible cause for this is that the file that stores the positions and sizes of window is corrupt. You can delete this file and Firefox will return to standard window resizing.
#1 method: If you can get a zoomed window:
Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help
- button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
- (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
- type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.
Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:
- "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
- (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.
Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?
#2 method: If you can not get a Firefox window for all:
Close Firefox by right clicking the icon in the taskbar > close all windows.
Using the Run dialog box (windows key + R) or the start search bar menu type or paste the following and press Enter to drill down to the profiles folder:
%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
Here you can see a folder - in this case, double-click that - or more than one case - in this case, double-click on in what looks like the most recently updated.
Scroll down and rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.
Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?
Then, to re - light bars, you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select the desired bars it:
- Right click on a place empty on the tab bar (or the button '+')
- Press the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar > view > toolbars
- in customize mode > show/hide toolbars (see: Customize Firefox commands, buttons, and toolbars)
To activate the menu bar, toolbar bookmarks or other bars, click it in the list.

original title: could not copy files
When I try to copy a file to an external device using Windows Explorer I get the following error message: "cannot copy. The directory or file cannot be created. "I understand that I may have the physical limit of USB keys for the root directory. How can I fix it?
Hi GloriaZF,
What is the size of your external hard drive and what is the available free space? Open my computer-> right click on the external hard drive-> properties. You will not be able to copy more data if the disk is full, or who have less space compared to the size of the file you are trying to copy.
You need to remove the order data to make the space more. Deleted data from the device USB will be permanently deleted and will not be stored in your Inbox, so take care while eliminating unnecessary data.
I hope this helps.

Recently, I upgraded my OS to Windows 10 and follow the procedure to create a system backup and recover and restore the Flash Drive. When I try to start my HP Pavilion p7-1451 from a USB I just get the HP Logo. Do I need to change the settings on the HP?
Use the esc key when you see the HP logo, it should give you a list of startup, and then press F9 to get a list of boot devices, then choose your USB key from this list and press ENTER.
