Portege 3490CT - turn off problem

My Portege 3490CT began to fade after between 1 and 15 minutes from powering it. It now has a damaged operating system because Windows Update was not able to complete an automatic update. Of course, I cannot locate a recovery CD and do not have a CD Player for her in any case.

Y at - it an easy solution for this problem of sleep and no one know where I can source a W2K recovery disk?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Stuart,

This type of unexpected shutdown is usually related to overheat probably so heatsink CPU having dirty upward with the dust and debris sucked into the cooling fans. It can be cured by clean dust accumulation.

The recovery CD copies are available from any Agent of Service authorized Toshiba.

Kind regards

  • Portege M200 turns off without warning.

    Hi guys,.

    My Portege M200 has just developed a problem today. It stops without warnings or information.
    Event Viewer has not recorded anything out of the ordinary, I suspect that its overheating issue because I'm looking at the time cpu and gpu using speedfan and PC wizard and they both read the time cpu in the 1950s and PCWiz reads the temperature of the gpu in the 57. But I have no info on the fans is this normal? !!! ?? !!

    The fan speed has 1 manual control for a fan (is not one who say, but seem to be the cpu fan) that I now put 100% to test it and see if it stops again. This has been on during about 5 minutes and the cpu temp is down to 36.

    I have no way to control the fan gpu or down the temp on this...

    Is it possible to test the fans / sensors to determine where is the problem?

    Can anyone think of all the other things that I can check or which would do this?

    Thank you guys.

    I think also that occur due to overheating. In such cases, the laptop turns off simply without any warning. Sorry, buddy, but I think it's time for cleaning. Here the question how you want to do. Only or it should be done on a career path.

    Your decision!

  • Satalite P300D: standby and turn off problem

    I have a problem with the sleep mode in particular. When I close the laptop, it is supposed to go into sleep mode, and sometimes he just did it, but other times (especially if I do two times after eachother) the fan turn on extremely hard and the screen goes black and the only way to stop this is to press the power button until the laptop turns off. Sometimes, I have the same problem with the laptop shutdown.

    I think it started right after the installation of windows 7, might have something to do with it?

    Hi mate

    Well, this could be possible since the Windows 7 supports a few different settings of energy management as well.
    I recommend the BIOS.
    You need to update it if a newer version is available.

    In addition, you must install Win 7 Vientiane (value package) which can be downloaded from the page of European driver for Toshiba

  • Portege 4000 turns off after 20 minutes

    My Portege 4000 shuts down suddenly after 20 minutes, sometimes it takes our during 30-40 minutes.
    He then walks back for a few hours.

    Here's what I've tried, and it still happens:
    -On the sector, with or without battery
    -With a different (same) AC apator
    -Unplugged battery operated
    -Held at the BIOS screen (incase it was a Windows problem)

    The fan works, although it feels very powerful.
    And the power light flashes an error code (how can I decode it?).

    Although I don't really use it much, I really want my small Portege of junk.
    Any ideas?

  • Portege M200 turns off automatically without doing anything

    I did nothing, but my nootbook going to sutdown nothing.

    Can someone please help me solve the problem.

    You have a Satellite M200 or a Portege M200?

    In any case, check the dust in the radiator. If there is too much dust, the CPU is overheating, and the system will shut down to avoid damage.

    You can remove the dust using compressed air or a vacuum cleaner.

  • Turning off problem

    When I recently bought a new SSD, I cloned my configuration (Windows 7, 64-bit) of my old SSD. On this old SSD, there is a copy of the standalone version of LR6. This may explain the message that keeps appearing when I open LR on my new SSD, I now start to leave, telling me my serial number is already in use on the maximum number of computers, i.e. Adobe think I have 2 (or more than 2?) copies of the race of LR. It seems to me that I have two options: boot from the old SSD, enter LR and disconnection, so disable this copy - this I'd rather not do - on the old SSD drivers are out of date, therefore risk blue projection and lack of access to the LR on this disc. or simply reformat the old SSD, which is dead simple and avoids the problems mentioned previously, but would it disable that copy of LR? Or y at - it a phone number, I can call (I live in the United Kingdom) to solve this problem? I tried to find such a number on the website of Adobe, but I keep going round in circles.

    1. Click on the link above in response #5
    2. Scroll through the list and choose Adobe Lightroom
    3. Click on the Adobe ID and signature-in (which is one of the few ways to get the chat button)
    4. Click on the big blue button
    5. Under recommended (chat & phone) click on chat
    6. In the activation of type red box & deactivation or whatever you prefer
    7. Click the start Chat button that now lights up blue

    You may need to wait until an agent is free. Have your serial number available.

  • Satellite P30 turn off - also problems with burning DVDs

    Hi Please help me.
    I had a row with my brother and it won't help.

    My Pc is only a year old and it turns off. I would say it was because of overheating, but he just did and it isn't really that hot.
    I put on the books, not on my knees, keep him away heat, crash back to the desktop.
    It makes me crazy, please, any help or advice or anything like that would be a great help.

    I also have problems with my dvd burner, always, he gets to about 17% and said that there is a mistake, thought it was the discs but surely it can be all 100 of them, I tried turning on and off but no use.
    Also the advice would be great!

    Please help a girl in need of a working Pc! Who does not know a lot of technical stuff!

    Hello

    Overheating problems usually occur because the cooling module cannot work properly.
    Fans are unable to work because of the dirt and dust inside the laptop.
    The best way to clear the fans is to use the vacuum cleaner.

    On the problems of DVD writer: well, it's not easy to say why it happens. Have you checked media dvd from different manufacturers? Many CD/DVD media works differently, and you should check it out.
    In addition, there is a problem with the burning software. I put t know what application you're using, but you should try to use Nero. It's very nice software and I m very happy. Check it out
