Pavilion dv7: Pavilion dv7 stops randomly

I have a somewhat old Pavilion and begins 3 days ago, it began to stop randomly. The average time it works is about 5 minutes. I thought it was because it was overheating, so I had cleaned the vents, am a pad cooling and try see if she resist longer in an air-conditioned room, but she always stops.

Is there anything else I can do if it is still hot?

Far beyond cleaning and her reapply thermal paste there is not much but I raise the back side of the laptop and try that and see if the thermal overload is lower if that's the case, then, it would be the fix, that you use to keep it from overheating. And if you sell the computer based AMD mobile processor and get a processor iNtel based they do better in temperature as opposed to AMD processors and will cost more but more value.

  • HP Pavilion DV7 stops unexpectedly

    Hi all

    A few days ago, I was looking through random Internet when my HP Pavilion DV7 stops suddenly. I turned on and it loaded on the Windows screen and then off again. I removed the battery, a memory (I have 2 DIMM 4 GB) and put back the battery and the other DIMMS in but the problem remains. It's a very strange problem - when I press F2 to enter the memory test, it starts to scroll a memory check and then turns off again. When I try to start it in recovery mode or in safe mode also stops. I don't know if it's a hardware or operating system problem - of ideas?

    OK, thanks for your help

  • HP Pavilion Slimline s5304y strange behavior and stops randomly

    To start, here is my card:

    HP Pavilion Slimline s5304y

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit SP1 Build 7601

    AMD Athlon II X processor 2 215

    4 GB of RAM, blah blah blah

    Here are the symptoms:

    -Win7 starts to act strangely, when the keys are depressed they'll keep recording (like that, but forever)

    -Then it will attempt to force the closure but I keep open Word 2007, which will block the closure and I gives me the option to cancel or to force stop word.

    -J' I usually Cancel to see what it does, sometimes it continues to operate normally, sometimes, attempts to stop become more frequent until it ask no more, and Word cannot veto the shutdown request.

    -When I look at the Event Viewer system, he says he is told what USER (me) has launched the stop, as if it were normal.

    -A little more digging in the event viewer application section says that before stopping, "HP Support Assistant Service" had a "PowerEvent handled successfully by the service" with EventRecordID of 10883.

    -Meet system Event ID 109

    Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power

    EventRecordID 45150

    There is no indication that something went WRONG minidump, no discharges of any sort, sfc/scannow ran own just like chkdsk, memtest, tester of windows 7 and all other diagnostic tools.

    He did it before, but very rarely, so I thought nothing of it (which happened in the spans of the months apart) but now happened several times a day.

    Recent software additions:

    Installing the software and drivers Lexmark Prospect Pro205

    -Updated Nvidia graphics drivers Geforce 6150SE nForce 430 to 8.17.12.9573 and it's Helper service ver 295,73

    What I did to try to rectify the situation:

    -Scanned with each virus/malware free scan in existence - deleted an infected file from Java Java/CVE-2011-3544. O operate. And another unrelated to the advertising program.

    -Updated HP Assistant and Advisor

    -Updated several times with various updates for windows 7

    -Clean the case thought it was overheating, but nope - clean as a whistle, normal running time

    -Good fans checked

    -Extract from food - looked good, constant voltage

    I haven't checked the power extension cables. I heard there is a problem with shorting out on the 24-pin extensions, but I didn't have an extension of 24 pins on the power cables.

    I've heard others have had problems with HP stopping randomly with a strange behavior, so I wanted to see what you guys have to say.

    Could this be problems of power with my house? The wiring is old... Or more likely is a short circuit in the cable/PSU?

    How can I easily repair/test of this theory?

    -All right, so the system restore has nothing but destroy some files, because I couldn't not correctly backup the drive between the random stops.

    However, I found the solution to my problem, that you won't believe.

    Short answer: I replaced the stock HP keyboard (model KU-0841) who seems to have been short.

    The long answer:

    -When the computer kept shutting down even in safe mode after a destructive recovery, I started watching again material.

    -Noticed my typing would sometimes record, sometimes just go crazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzy (like this).

    -Then comes the keyboard no longer works. Thus, while the veto stops with WORD 2007 and using the keyboard on the screen in Win7, I thought it was a terrible virus - it wasn't.

    -When I unplugged the USB keyboard it's a strange electric 'bzz' sound, like what you hear when static is unloaded. It turns out that the USB port has been be short-circuited by the keyboard.

    On the keyboard and the USB plug was going well, so I don't know who is to blame again, however - if someone is having the same weird problems with events of the power of the nucleus and 1074 with 0x500ff errors-try to check your hardware.

    After replacing the keyboard, everything works perfectly.

  • Stop randomly Qosmio X 770 - 138

    Hi guys, just bought my new Qosmio X 770-138 a week ago and everything seemed fine until he began to stop randomly. It is not proper closures, just boom--off.

    Now, I can tell you that it it does NOT heat related, it happens that when I'm idling the CPU temperature is around 40-45 degrees Celsius, so I ruled that out of the "education".

    It never happened when I run games high performance that makes the temperature spikes CPU to max 60 degrees celsius.

    Now, I tried to use Reeltime "turn back time" to a precedent that date, it has not stopped, that it worked fine for a day, then he began to close again.

    Now I've just updated the BIOS and the nVIDIA and INTEL video drivers and it has not closed for about an hour, but I don't think I'm in the clear yet.

    No one knows what causes these kinds of closures? I have F-SECURE protection from virus/spyware and firewall which is true, so I should be relatively well protected against the bad guys.

    Thanks in advance for any help! :)

    > Now I've just updated the BIOS and the nVIDIA and INTEL video drivers and it has not closed for about an hour, but I don't think I'm in the clear yet.

    And now? The laptop works stable? Has he stopped after you apply updates?
    It is possible that some driver compatibility problem caused these cases
    However, use Notepad for a longer period of time and the report that the results would be interesting to know how it works.

  • Satellite A665-11z starts to load then stops randomly

    Hi all

    I bought this second hand Toshiba A665-11z to see that when I'm connected to the PSU, the dough starts to load and then stops randomly load... after a few seconds he could come back, and sometimes it just stops loading completely.

    When this is the case of the power button turns off, as well as on top of the touch pad.

    The lights on the front of the laptop navigate whites for POWER supply, off for walking and pink flashes for the battery. The backlit keyboard turns off too and will not continue until the load is back.

    Once I started typing this post he disconnected fresh form, I reconnected it and now it is not happened again.

    The original operating system was Windows Home Edition premium 32-bit, but this lappy is bundled with 4 GB of RAM so the previous owner installed a licensed version of WIn 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

    I've updated all the drivers and BIOS is 2.20

  • Laptop stops randomly and gets stuck on the saving settings

    Basically, we have some laptops 10 + this will stop randomly and get stuck on the "saving settings screens.

    Here are the different models of toshiba R500-R600 M10 M9 M5

    We changed versions of bios etc, reimagee them, even used an image of windows xp disc rather than soe.

    Hardware tests OK and customers do not something in particular, some when others when you connect using applications office, back in after a while. Some use docking stations, others not.

    All ideas

    Hello

    Just a question: are you an authorized service provider?
    I ask this question because it looks like you are an ASP because you have so many laptops and you have tested different things.

    It's really hard to say what the reason is for this but I think that in this case, you should contact Toshiba directly. Maybe it s a known issue and it can be fixed in a few minutes.
    So ask for it and wait for a response.

  • Satellite A200 - stop randomly

    Hello

    My laptop Toshiba Satellite A200 will stop randomly. First I thought, that the CPU is overheating, but its temperature is 50 degrees (Celsius), and it is good (I also change the fan). But my ATI radeon HD2600 graphics card has 50 degrees too and that's a too high temperature for nothing to do.

    Where could be the problem? What is the temperature of my gpu of closing?

    Thank you

    Sometimes when I turn on my computer, the temperature of the GPU is only 30 degrees
    I have a dualboot XP and Windows 7. When I turn on XP, the computer shuts down when booting, when I turn on Windows 7, it's not stop immediately

    Hey,.

    > First I thought, that the CPU is overheating, but his temperature is 50 degrees (Celsius)
    How to measure the temperature?
    As much as I know there is no formal program of Toshiba to check the temperature, and the 3rd party tools can show wrong temperatures.

    > But my ATI radeon HD2600 graphics card has 50 degrees too and that's a too high temperature for nothing to do.
    Who said that 50 ° C is too high for the GPU? In my opinion it s normal and ok, it won't be a problem.

    In your case, I would follow the instructsions here:
    [How to clean a Toshiba laptop cooling system? | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=40]

    Theoretically it could also be possible that the thermal grease is too old and should be replaced. This can be done from an authorized service provider.

  • Satellite A200 (PSAE3E) - stops randomly

    Hi all!

    I got an A200 PSAE3E in my possession which stops randomly. He really died the hard way. I have excluded a software problem, because even this wenn waiting for PXE, so no start-up of the drive HARD or another device...

    The only idea I have left is to Flash the BIOS to get it to work again properly as I thought it might have something to do with faulty breaks? Or anything that leaves the BIOS to be originally...
    When he is not the BIOS, then the motherboard itself must be faulty which leaves me only one option: throw this piece :-D

    * Up to now, the real question: how Flash BIOS without using an operating system like Windows? Is it a kind of combination of button I can press start so he can a BIOS file from a USB flash? *

    Help would be very appreciated.

    Hi medis,.

    Without an operating system it s not possible to update the BIOS. All updates of BIOS provided on the official website of Toshiba are windows, depending on whether you need an operating system running up-to-date BIOS.

    To be honest I have don t think that the BIOS is the reason for this

    The laptop is overheating or hardware malfunction s motherboard or the CPU

    If it s just an overheating issue you can solve the problem yourself by cleaning radiator with a jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans.
    If it doesn t help you need professional help of an authorized service provider. Guys have professional tools to make an accurate diagnosis of your laptop, so they can tell you what to do in this case.

  • Stop random Satellite P105-S6004

    I've had my laptop for over a year now and its been send me questions since I got it. I had the hard drive replaced by toshiba, while it was under warranty too. But from this stop randomly, it's 'new' its not covered.

    In any case, I ran dianostics etc and nothing seems to be wrong, but the laptop stops randomly without any warning. Now, he USED to blue screen, but perhaps his tired to do this more?

    I have a laptop cooling pad, and I cleaned inside the computer, etc. Nothing seems to be a problem with the RAM or the fan. So I'm not sure what I need to do, then take it somewhere. Any help would be appreciated!

    -Lindsay

    Hello

    are you sure there is no third party pre-installed software on your laptop that can be responsible for the blue screen or stop the down?

    It is not easy to say why this happen because the blue screen can be the result of software and hardware problems.

  • iMac keeps stopping randomly.

    My iMac 27 inches, end of 2012 stops randomly. I can just read News Articles, listening to music or watching YouTube videos and it'll just cut. I can just turn on either. I have to disconnect if for a minuet or two and then it can be powered on. I sent to a Genius Bar twice and said that they conducted tests of stress on it real long try to plant it and cannot reproduce the problem. I even had swapped power cable, and it still happens.

  • Pavilion dv7 programs closing and opening at random, computer stops randomly

    I have a Pavilion dv7-6154ea running on Windows 7. I've had it for a year and a half now and I just encountered this problem (it started a few days ago).

    The problem is that some programs or files are opening and closing by themselves, randomly without doing me anything. Sometimes even whole computer stops himself. And it's not as if it crashes, it just closes programs in the usual way or stops normally (without any problem).

    I scanned the entire computer for viruses and it is clean. If the problem seems not be caused by a virus.

    One thing that I was doing at the same time when this problem occurred is switchable graphics mode in the BIOS change, dynamics on fixed, by following the steps in this link to The switchable Graphics Mode

    I have a built-in Intel GPU (that to speed up performance) and an AMD Radeon HD 6490 M GPU (that of better graphics) and I wanted to run the PC on the AMD because I think that the dynamic mode has not changed the GPU when I needded, for example for video games.

    However, after a day of opening/closing by themselves programs, I decided to return to dynamic mode, and nothing has changed, so maybe it's also not the cause of the problem.

    In any case, it seems too convenient that the problem happened right after I introduced the Switchable graphics in the BIOS mode, if I don't think it's a coincidence.

    Can someone help me? It becomes very awkward to have a program that I use at the moment of the computer closa.

    Thank you

    sthri,

    It doesn't sound like it's a virus, but it could also be the keyboard.

    Type ease.

    Press enter

    Go to the bottom and click, facilitate the use of the keyboard.

    Check all the boxes and click OK.

    The keyboard will not work, but move and open programs as you normally use the computer and see if you get any errors.

    I would like to know how everything goes.

    Nice day.
