Performance very slow satellite M60

Hi, I have an m60 with 17 "display, go6600 nvidia 128 MB, 2 GHz cpu, 512ram, 80 GB hard drive
All drivers/bios are up to date... but I'm very disappointed, as overall, the machine is quite slow...

There is a kind of latency on everyhting do you... loading the software, at the opening of new messages in outlook, text selection, open files, etc etc...
I tried everything, including a complete reinstallation of windows, but nothing...

I realized that the machine was hot enough in the box wireless then decided to disable it in the control panel connection options. What has improved the overall performance... but it's still not what you expect from this type of machine.

My other machine pentium 3 is almost faster with only 256ram... HARD drive seems to work a lot with a few short moments of "freeze up" like that, nothing happens and nothing can be done on the machine... sometimes there is also a sort of flicker of the screen as if had changed the settings of the screen... across the keyboard/keypad area becomes very hot , and often runs even if outlook is open...

The keyboard is also very difficult to use, it really takes to each in the Center and almost pressed button for one second to get out the letter.

I'd be really grateful if someone of you could give me some advice! machine at just 6 months old and is a replacement already the one I had first with the CPU remains at 100% all the time after starting just. Is there a problem with the M60?

Thanks for the comments and advice

Hi Pete

As you know most laptop performance depends on configuration personal because laptop comes with factory settings should work well. Many users have own and favorite configuration and sometimes it can totally choke with the operating system and make it very, very slow and annoying for its use.

As much as I know the M60 is a pretty powerful unit with a good graphics card and the performance of God game. The keyboard problem is known, but it must also be resolved through replacement of keyboard (M60 is the first laptop with NUMPAD).

I'm sure that with the right software, your device configuration will work very good and stable.

  • Re: Performance very slow Satellite C855-1GN - startup procedure takes 15 min

    My sister bought a Satellite C855-1GN installed with Win7 64bits in December (typical - 4 days of warranty now) and for a time found it getting more slower.

    She asked me to take a look for her, and she is quite right, that this laptop is appalling insensitive to even the most basic tasks such as opening Windows Explorer, which takes more than a minute to open.

    It's a similar story about any button on this machine, sometimes longer depending on what has been clicked. Getting even the startup thing of press office being visible (and even less usable) takes a staggering 15 minutes more.

    Text input, such the password of user to connect to Windows, or a URL in any browser (IE and chrome installed by default) causes the circle of rotation equivalent to an hourglass at least 60 seconds before anything happens, as does pretty much any click button. For example, Windows Start button or right click on anything whatsoever.

    Initially, I suspected some kind of malware / too much garbage installed. A ran full scans, no problem. Disabled / uninstalled all the bloatware, that I could find, still no difference.
    Close all the features, always terribly slow for energy savings.

    Windows experience / Task Manager / resmon all report nothing out of the ordinary or anything by eating resources. In desperation, provided Out Of Box Experience with the help of the hidden restore partition... who took more than 24 hours to complete, and is not an exaggeration.

    I went to bed, then work during the day, and he had not yet finished until I had been home for a couple of hours.

    This machine now has a completely new (although specific Toshiba) install Win7, and runs just as horribly slow. I'm still waiting for the office, 17 minutes after power on before typing this. It took several resets and is yet to install anything.

    6 GB of RAM is ample. While not a P3, 5 or 7, there is no way that an Intel B950 double heart clocked to a class, certainly not top than 2.10 GHz can be this slow (that is a few months ago), I had the terrible Celeron in my time, which were infinitely faster than that.

    Has anyone else had a performance of same pathos of this model? If so, we are anyone of you is able to solve it? Or should we bin just this paperweight?

    Hello

    In the past, we've discussed several times on similar problems, and some people were dissatisfied with the performance of the portable nine pre-installed with original recovery image.
    Small example, you can check this thread. In general it is described you can do with this machine. You, I prefer to use the word optimize operating system preinstalled. It will run better and faster.

    Otherwise it can also be problem with HARD drive. If your sister love this machine, I recommend a small investment in new hardware. Exchange HARD SSD drive. SSD aren't so cheap anymore so you can buy one, I would say, with 250 GB and I think that there is enough free space for their work.

    You can't imagine how fast they are. I use on my old P500. Laptop starts in just 40 seconds.

    I m pretty sure with new SSD and optimized original Win7 that you got your sister with this laptop will have a good and pretty fast machine.

  • Very slow Satellite Pro A100

    Has just been given a Toshiba Satellite Pro A100 computer laptop and it works very very slow.

    When no programs are running, the Task Manager process tab indicates that the laptop is about 95% idle, but the performance tab around 50% or more.

    I ran anti-virus, cleaned a lot of software that I use, XP (service pack 3) update and different drivers, but it works still slow.

    I guess I have to re - install XP, but unfortunately I don't have a copy the disk recovery product that came with the laptop.

    Anyone know if I will be able to get your hands on a copy of this disc.
    If it helps, I have two drives available for other XP laptops that I own, but I don't think I'll be able to use them to reinstall this copy of XP using the label of serial number 25-digit number based on the laptop.

    Hello!

    It is possible that it s a software problem, but it might be the case.
    What antivirus or security software internet you use? Have you tried to install another, for example AntiVir?
    In addition, you can do many things to improve performance. Defragment the HARD disk, disable startup programs, clean the registry for example and to this day. Google will help you learn more.

    Finally and above all it is possible to order a recovery disc. So, contact the nearest authorized service provider in your country.

  • very slow Satellite Pro 6100

    Hello

    First: sorry for my English, but it's very bad * G *.

    Now my problem:
    After reinstalling (windows XP), the SP6100 is very slow. The system always have 100% CPU usage regardless of what program I'm starting. It is not the bios (latest version and all the stalls on the CPU power) and not the HARD drive, I have tested yesterday night and completely zero formatted. But the problem is there too, also with linux or Windows 2000.

    I don't understand, because before I reinstall the system, NB has been very rapid.

    Does anyone now a response, so I put the laptop?

    Welcome,
    Bastian

    Hello Bastian

    You reinstall the operating system using the original recovery CD or Microsoft WXP (full version)? As far as I know this camera comes with Windows XP Home edition Professional. Am I right about that?

    There are many reasons that can make the much slower system, installation of SP2 or maybe extra software. Check please the process running in the Task Manager. Maybe there are some of them that you don't need, but can be reason for memory and CPU use.

  • Heat and a very slow Satellite A75-S211

    I read on a post above that the air vents on the laptops can become dusty, so I vacumed both on the computer of my girlfriend (who is the computer problem here).

    Fans were executed at the top almost constantly for some time. I managed to remove three large dust balls (had to pick them across the screens). This does wonders for the fan speed that seem normal now, and I guess that heat is better, even if I haven't used the computer much more before.

    I downloaded a utility that I learned on another forum and determined that the processor was working about 40 degrees C, 104 F. I think it's maximum recommended, but I'm not sure. My questions are this (assuming the heat problem is, essentially, cured):

    is there a reduced efficiency as the computer takes to guard against overheating of the processor (I'm sure there is) and should be turned "off" once the temperature problem is solved (particularly if the question was for a long time)?

    are there programs diagnosis out there that can tell me if the processor is damaged by heat or any other cause?

    Thank you

    L

    Hi Larry,

    Assuming you are using the Toshiba Power Management utility rather than the version of Microsoft then your laptop will usually follow a behavioral feature if the CPU is too hot.

    In general, as you have already discovered, fans will increase in speed and frequency until they work at top speed for most of the time (assuming that the power management utility is set for maximum performance). If the CPU is always too hot then the laptop is finally off himself in order to avoid any damage. However it is likely that the CPU you will get even hotter since turning off also stops the cooling fans.

    The Toshiba power management utility can also be set to change this behavior by slowing down the CPU in order to keep more expenses and thus reduce the noise caused by the cooling fans.

    After a reboot, the power management utility must return to its designated frame, which will be all you had set it initially.

    The thermal switch that controls the auto standby except in case of overheating of the CPU should have quite a high cost to ensure that the processor is not damaged.

    Kind regards

  • Sourcefire DC 3500 performance very slow

    Hello

    I am running two 3500 DC devices in a high availability pair on DC version 5.4.1.2 and finds that most of the tasks on the GUI, including just connect, opening the dashboard, political editing and especially applies to policies, seems painfully slow.  According to what I am pulling upward, it may take 45 seconds to open any page and sometimes 3 + minutes to open a policy.  Could be just me picky, but it's the kind of performance that others see?  I find myself not wanting to open the pages lack of reaction.

    I recently tried to cut some of my data in the database of limits to see if that would help and it didn't.  I executed the script of DBCheck.pl of the CLI, and this resulted in a good number of warnings of db, but no error.

    Any ideas of things, I look to optimize performance?

    Your thoughts are appreciated.

    Hello

    No we don't have a loop script that fixes all the tables. And apart from that, there is also a script for the optimization of the tables. In addition, you can also check the number of connection on your defense Center events and to check on the card the maximum number of & supported.

    I would definitely say you can open evidence of the TAC, so that they can provide you with scripts accordingly.

  • Satellite T110-11U: WLan connection dropped and very slow performance

    Hi people,

    I use a Satellite T110-11U running windows 7 Home premium.

    After having initially was very satisfied with its use, it now becomes more and more frustrating to use with wifi, with connections dropped and very slow performance.

    I have updated the BIOS and think I have updated all drivers wirelss, but could be the problem. It seems that wireless, software of management is at fault because the networks are detected, but not clinging.

    Any suggestion or tips to try will help save my sanity!

    Thanks for your help.

    John

    > have updated the BIOS and think I have updated all drivers wirelss, but could be the problem.
    If you need to make sure that you use the latest WLan driver.
    The driver can be downloaded here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    The laptop uses the Realtek RTL8191SE of WLan card.
    Please also reset the settings of the Wlan router. I had a lot of problems with my WLan and after the reset of the router, performance problems disappeared.

  • 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.

  • New Satellite Pro U400-12y is very slow

    Just bought Satellite Pro U400-12y with Vista Business pre-installed (1 GB preinstalled memory).
    However, the startup is very slow and actually the computer seems to work in a time warp.

    Any ideas? Is there a fundamental problem?

    Yes, I have an idea.

    I think that the high amount of background processes affect the performance of laptops.
    He should know that the U400 supports many different features and these features are controlled by different applications.

    If you want you can start the msconfig and disable some unnecessary and unimportant process. Take a look in the Startup tab.

    In addition, I recommend to disable and remove the preinstalled software called Tempro.

    I did it on my system, and now it runs much faster

  • Satellite U500 - copy process is very slow

    Hi friends,

    I use the Satellite U500-1f5, for the last 2 months. It's core i5 with Windows 7. The copy process is still very slow and sometimes starting is a bit slower.

    Can someone show a valid answer for this problem?

    Hey mate,

    Looks like you have installed lots of software that slows down the performance of your laptop.
    If the programs you have installed?

    Theoretically it could also be caused due to a virus or a trojan. You should check your laptop computer for viruses using a good antivirus like AntiVir program.

    Try to defragment the HARD drive. If you install/uninstall programs, you should defragment the HARD drive from time to time. You can use the built-in Windows defragmentation tool.

  • Very slow the new Satellite L40

    I would be grateful for any help you guys can give me.

    I have a Satellite-ish L40 (bought last fall). It's a basic - Intel Celeron death machine / 1.60 GHz / 1015 - RAM under Vista Home Premium. He bought just to make the work of processor + some use very light internet. The problem is that it runs very slowly (including holding still to go when I start by putting).

    I tested virus to death. I regularly run detection of spyware / remove programs. I have reduced the number of startup programs immediately. All results say I have a machine of clam. But it is still as slow as hell. And when I say slow, I can do about a cup of coffee in the time it takes to access the net.

    I contacted Toshiba support, and the best they could suggest was that I reformat the hard disk, which is dramatic enough. If anyone out there has a better suggestion, I'd love to hear it. Right now, I'm rather regretting my purchase.

    Many thanks - Max

    To be honest this radical solution is not a bad proposal.

    But what do you mean exactly with the slow machine?
    How long does take you to a boot?

    The fact is that many applications are preinstalled on this laptop and this could be main reasons for a long start. But the fact is that many of these applications are necessary for the performance of all the features of the laptop.
    In addition, an antivirus program that is running in the background and could affect the startup time. Long ago, I used the Norton Antivirus and this software was a reason my laptop was very slow... I changed it and now I'm using the freeware like Antivir software. It's much better...

    Wow, proof that Yosemite - can - run on only 2 GB of memory. I had not thought that it was possible in the real world.

    If you are serious about not not upgrade the RAM I would recommend uninstalling/disabling the Flash Player and possibly disable Java Script as well. WEBCONTENT is currently the #1 drain resource on your mac, in order to prevent intensive pieces more than memory of the internet of the race should improve performance throughout the system. Usually I also recommend also downgrade to a less intensive old OS version resources such as the Mavericks or Mountain Lion, but given that you must have been to Yosemite for months I guess it works for you.
