Portege A100 has suddenly started to freeze

My Portege A100 has suddenly started to freeze without valid reason.

It has also hurt to turn sometimes blue light appears on the disc hard turns, but not much happening and the screen remains empty.
Sometimes he'll get into windows and I want to use it then suddenly stop responding completely.
It does this in SafeMode as well ad from a cold start.

The strange thing is that it seems to be triggered physically sometimes but I couldn't swear to it and maybe it's just a coincidence.

any ideas?

Hello

Description seems you very strange because the question what you described happens sometimes. Eventually it s only a software malfunction?
How the operating system is running on the laptop?

What do you think of the resettlement using the recovery CD?
This relocation and new OS can sometimes solve problems of frizzing.

But if the portable feed then you should try another suggestion.
You must remove the power supply and adapter of the laptop. Then wait several times (10-15 min). Put the power supply in the laptop and connect the power adapter.

Then, launch Notepad.

  • Satellite L300D has recently started to freeze

    Hello

    First time poster so hope im in the right place!

    My L300D has recently started to freeze on me, he's about right start. If I move the screen slightly it will unlock and I can work on it, but is likely to freeze again with any movement of the laptop, so the constant movement of the screen to thaw it is a bit annoying that you can imagine!

    I used compressed air to remove dust from the fans because it had seemed as if it was overheating, but that made no difference.

    Is there something simple I am missing or is this tendency to freeze a symptom of the beginning of the end for my laptop?
    If anyone has any experience of this / tips for getting on it, it would be well appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi bluekev,

    I never heard of this issue, but maybe the problem is with the LCD cable... Such a cable wouldn t be expensive and you can get it from an authorized service provider. Also guys can redeem you.

    You move only any computer laptop or screen?
    I ask this question because it could also be a HARD drive problem, but if you move only the screen I doubt

  • HP Mini 5101 suddenly starts to freeze

    Hello

    I used my HP mini 5101 (Windows XP Home Edition 2002, 1.66 GHz, 0.99 GB of ram) Fortunately for 13 months, and this worked without a Nick. Yet, in the last days he suddenly started to freeze completely unannounced and apparently more frequently. I can't make any specific action that leads to the gel. It happens when I have it on the desk, on my knees, while the screen saver is activated, as I write, when I pull the internet cable etc. The screen freezes completely. Everything seems normal, except that the cursor freezes and it does not respond to press more. The only thing that helps is to stop and restart button.

    But judging by the offerings of other similar, HP service seems not inclined to answer questions, however, I would greatly appreciate suggestions on what could cause this problem and how it could be fixed.

    Thank you very much!

    Hi Chris,

    As you mentioned a few times that happens when you move, I was wondering if HP 3D Driveguard may be responsible because there meant to park the heads of the hard drive in case the machine broke etc.  Maybe it's parking the drive heads in response to even the smallest movement for some reason any.

    Looking forward to hear from you.

    Best wishes

  • Satellite A100-495: strange starting problems & freezes

    Hey guys.

    I recently got my Satellite A100-495 back from repair - it had a power problem (no led was flashing and it does not start of course). They told me that the motherboard has been renewed.

    Now, I have the following two issues:

    (1) it freezes suddenly sometimes in windows after 1-2 hours of operation without problems and I have to hold the power button for a few seconds restart

    (2) I press the power on button, LEDS are underway but the screen remains black, sometimes becomes gray, hard drive makes noise, fans going on but it just does not start, do not show anything. After some tests, I have to start but once again crashes after a couple hours of functioning properly.

    Can someone tell me what is the problem here?

    Bad memory (RAM) can cause this.

    If you can get it to start, test the memory with Memtest on a bootable CD. www.memtest.org

    Otherwise, try the combination of the different memory card. If you have 2 sticks of memory, try with one stick, then try the other stick, try different locations.
    Often the memory pins can oxidize and cause problems. To clean the pins, use a pencil eraser/rubber and rub the pins of module memory.
    Be careful when you handle the memory, you can zap easily memory with static electricity. To make sure that you are connected to the earth when the memory handling.

  • In Windows 7 Professional, Firefox has suddenly started using more than one symbol in the taskbar... Why?

    After you install Firefox it placed a symbol in the toolbar to launch. When you move the mouse over this symbol it would display then also the tabs that were open in the browser. Then, the program was launched and operating within this Firefox ONE symbol on the task bar... it was never (to a point), more of a symbol.

    Now suddenly he started to open a second Firefox symbol in the toolbar in which the browser really runs and displays the open tabs. In other words, I now have a Firefox symbol in the taskbar to launch the browser and the other, the second symbol in which the browser is running. I don't want because it takes too much space on the taskbar. How can I return to keep Firefox limited to a single symbol in the taskbar at all times?

    The first icon is "pinned" to the Windows 7 taskbar in an earlier version? Could you try unpinning and repinning Firefox and see if that helps?

    (I think someone has posted this same question yesterday, but I can't find the thread at the moment).

  • New MacBook has just started to freeze...

    and I'm on El Capitan 10.11.14 happens in Chrome and pictures x 3 in 10 minutes. I see this comment everywhere now and all use this version of El Capitan and all programs and different browsers. There must be a bug here and it needs to be fixed right now. I had to reboot now 4 x in the last hour. This is not why we buy Macs.

    The latest version of El Capitan is indeed 10.11.4.  First run disk utility.  Select the startup disk, not the volume indented under the drive in the disk utility sidebar, and then click first aid to the right.  If there are no errors reported, select the volume (usually called Macintosh HD) back under the drive in the disk utility sidebar, and then click first aid.  The second check is the most important, which is an indicator of alteration of the data on your boot drive.

    In addition, start up the Mac in Safe Mode.  This corrects the other types of errors (at startup) and starts the Mac without loading third-party system extensions.  And the third-party background processes that auto-start when you connect also do not operate in Safe Mode.  Third-party software can cause system instability.

    Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning - Apple Support

    Most applications need to run in Safe Mode, even if the overall performance of the system will be slower.  The "freeze" problem still there?  If this isn't the case, you will need to investigate the possible causes through a process of elimination.

    If the startup disk is close to satiety, which can cause problems.  In the Finder (or on the desktop), then right-click on the icon of your startup disk and select information.  You have enough space free available?
