Portege M400 - system crashes, speeds fan near the top, does not start

I bought this new tablet in 2007 with Vista Ultimate. I upgraded to 2 GB of RAM a few months ago and keep up to date on the OS and antivirus updates. During the last week, the system began to hang, usually using MS OneNote but also when you navigate on the web or other applications. The computer can be either in tablet mode or laptop mode, when this happens, and it is usually on a flat and level. The grip has become more common of yesterday and today, it does not even start. Whenever it crashes, including now the fan suddenly accelerates. Every time that requires a difficult stop - I hold the power button for 5-7 seconds. Whenever it starts after the hanging, he asks to go through safe mode. The last time he asked to open the Windows repair.

I guess I'll have to send in for service. After reading some other posts, I noticed that others have experienced similar problems and I was wondering if someone had succeeded in solving them?

Thank you.

You said you did a RAM upgrade these computers portable behavior can be caused by RAM memory modules defective too.

Love all: _
You should also check if your laptop temperature is not too high.
In many cases if the temperature is too high the Windows OS on the laptop crashes and freezes.
I think after a long period of use, the vents may be blocked and this would prevent air from traffic and internal parts would not be properly cooled.

I clean my fans and cooling grids from time to time with a jet of compressed air. In this case, you could get rid of the dust and debris that is mainly responsible for these issues

Good bye

    You must set your BIOS to start on the DVD from the beginning to the top.

    You have a good DVD of Vista (OEM/upgrade or full version) and NOT only a recovery disk provided by the manufacturer of the PC (or you burn you).

    For a DVD upgrade, follow the method here and make sure you format your HARD drive thanks to the tools of "advanced install" on the DVD.

    If you have a full version of Vista rather than a version upgrade then just do the first part of the above procedure.

    Hi kaliszewski,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community and thanks for posting the question.

    According to the description, it looks that you are facing with Internet connection sharing problems.

    Please follow the steps mentioned below that can help us to solve the cause of the problem.

    Method 1:

    Maybe not all services that run the Internet (ICS) ICS are enabled. I suggest to start over and make sure that the underside of addiction services are activated.

    1. click on Start, run, type services.msc and click OK.

    2. to activate a service, find in the right pane and double click on its entry.

    3. make sure that the Startup Type is set to Automatic , and then click OK.

     

    All the following services must be so configured to use ICS:

    Application Layer Gateway Service
    Network connections
    Knowledge of the network (NLA) locations
    Plug-And-Play
    Remote Access Auto Connection Manager
    Remote Access Connection Manager
    Remote procedure call (RPC)
    Telephony

    After checking and automatic startup for each of these services configuration, close the Services window and restart the computer before trying again to enable ICS.

    Method 2:

    To disable and then re-enable the Internet connection sharing on the Internet connection of the Windows 7 computer. If it asks you to select a private network connection, select the one that connects to the hub. Check the connections to the LAN on each computer:

    1. Press Windows Key + R.
    2. Type ncpa.cpl in the box and press enter.
    3. Right click on the connection to the local network, and then click status.
    4. Click on Details. It should show these values:
    • IPv4 address: 192.168. *. *
    • IPv4 subnet mask: 255.255. *. *

    If the values are not good, Internet connection sharing is not configured correctly.

    You can also consult the following link for troubleshooting Internet connection sharing problems:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/using-ICS-Internet-connection-sharing

    Hope the above caliper problems

    If you need further clarification or additional assistance, please let us know, we will contact you as soon as possible.

    Thank you.

  • How can I reinstall windows xp when the computer does not start and there is no cdrom/dvd drive?

    I have an Acer netbook aspire one.  It will not boot past the windows logo.  I have a windows xp disc to reinstall windows, but the computer has no CD or dvd rom.  Can I copy cd of windows xp on startup SD memory card and reinstall windows?  Or can I run connect the non working pc a working PC to access the cdrom on the work pc to reinstall windows?

    First of all, you are mistaken when you say that the PC does not start.

    This is clearly starting. The problem comes from Windows, not with the real PC. It's actually a very important distinction!

    There are methods to repair Windows, but they can be a bit tedious. By all means, follow the advice given here to do if you're so inclined.

    If you would not rather to repair Windows (and I think it's interesting a try) or your repair attempts are unsuccessful, apparently, you would need to use an external optical disc drive and follow the instructions here:
