Re: Satellite L630-167 started to freeze

Hey guys,.

got myself a month old L630-167 off ebay and has started to freeze.
The laptop freezes and the keyboard and the trackpad becomes responsive United Nations sense I have to turn off by holding the power button down. This happens on power sector and normal battery.

Can be related to temperature, but I run CoreTemp and the laptop never seemed to exceed 53 c!

Updated to the latest version of the BIOS too.

Any help much appreciated! :)

Hello

Did you check if laptop recovery would solve this?
I think you should do it before we will talk to other reasons like the hardware with memory or HARD drive problem

    It seems that the problem of CD/DVD device or controller problem where the CD/DVD drive is connected.

    What you could do is to remove the CD/DVD of the STRANGE Bay drive and might try to start Notepad Satellite without the optical disc drive connected.
    If the issue seems always, the problem could be linked to the motherboard controller.

    Have you noticed the problem even if the laptop is not connected to the network and if you want to load your user profile on Windows 7?

    If this isn't the case, then I guess that it has something to do with the network, and in this case, I recommend asking the network administrator for a few suggestions.

    I think this sentence is the key description resembles your laptop could overheat and automatically stops.
    Why is this happening? Well, the laptop could overheat temperature high inside the laptop. It will stop automatically to prevent the equipment from damage.

    My long experience, a clogged cooling fans could be responsible for the bad cooling and the temperature high.

    So what to do?  :|
    In my opinion, he must clean the fans to get rid of dust and debris.

    The jet of compressed air is very useful tool and could help you to clean the fans.

    Hope this helps to get the laptop running.

  • Satellite L630 - how to rename files or folder in the Start Menu

    I used to rename files and folders by clicking the right button of the mouse or touchpad set and choose Rename.
    With my new Satellite L630, if I click on the right button, the menu with the options does not appear.

    It does not appear when I right-click on ay other file or folder, but not in the start menu. I can also drag an item any within the start menu.
    So I can not at all to customize (already tried with F2, does not or)

    What should I do to rename, drag the items from the start menu?

    Thank you for your kind contributions,
    Walter

    Hi mate

    I assume you are using Win7. Right?

    Cannot rename files (programs) that appear in the Start Menu.

    You can ONLY rename folders.
    If you click on all programs, then you should also see some folders there.
    Right click on the folder and you should see the option rename.
    Choose this option and then you should be able to rename the folder

  • Re: Satellite A350-20 q - started to freeze completely

    Howdy!

    I ' v belonging to my laptop for about 2 months now and a few days ago, he started to freeze spontaneously. There seems to be no 1 reason for this.

    It normally starts with a single application does not (internet explorer, microsoft word) and then just completely freezes so I have to reset it.

    Any suggestions please?
    Thanks in advance.

    It's really hard to say what the reason for this.
    You use the factory settings? I want to say did you install your own version of Windows, or is the image of Toshiba preinstalled on your laptop?

    It could be a hardware or software problem and if you have the factory settings I recommend to check the RAM and HARD drive. This is why you can use Memtest86 and Drive Fitness Test. use Google to find the two programs, they are free and easy to use. Just download a CD image, burn it to a disc and start from it.
    So, you can determine what the problem is.

    In the worst cases, you must go to an authorized service provider to check your laptop.
    I doubt that it s an overheating problem. The fan should work correctly because the laptop is only 2 months old you can hear the fan?

  • Re: Satellite started to freeze - in safe mode, everything is ok

    I was meet a lot of problems and I think it's vista, that's why I'm posting here.

    Well, I had recovered my laptop for "out of the box" staged when my laptop could not detect any connection internet, everything began to work properly. Soon, my laptop started to freeze, and I thought that maybe because it was getting too hot.

    I decided to put my laptop closer to my fan and an angle to cool. Things went better that and so I thought everything was fixed.

    I now have a different problem.
    Just when I thought that the reason for freezing was overheated, it is happening again.
    I have my internet explore and itunes radio turned on and then my music starts jumping and stuttering and the mouse and all the rest is frozen.

    I'm not sure it's the same as when my laptop was getting hot because I had not put on then music.

    I know it's a little confusing and I have not provided many details but I would appreciate if I can get some advice.

    I intend to retrieve my laptop again within the next two weeks when I get home.

    Thank you

    It looks a bit like a hardware problem.
    But first of all that I would like to know which laptop model you have?

  • 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
    Kevin

    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

  • Market with power supply is not possible on the Satellite M60-167

    Hello

    I'm sorry for my English saw. I have a problem with my Satellite M60-167. When I have connected the laptop with power supply and press the 'Power', then does'nt start Notepad.
    When I use only the battery and push a lot of times the "Power Button", that the laptop will be started.
    Question: It is a problem of material or not. This laptop that I bought it in January 2006.

    Can you help me?
    Thank you very much for your theory.

    AX.

    Hi Axel

    My theory is that there may be some problem with button / stop himself (white metal under the button), or perhaps with several Planar cable wire.

    Also, for me it is definitely hardware problem. If you want, you can contact the partner of service allowed in your country and see what they have to say about it.

  • Satellite A660-07 s keeps freezing when streaming videos

    I bought a new laptop from Toshiba Satellite A660-07 s recently, since he started to freeze when I use video applications, such as Skype or Youtube, etc... Frost occurs randomly, and the only way out is long by pressing the switch (hunting). I returned the laptop several times for Toshiba certified technician and we almost completely reinstall software and operating system, replace the motherboard, graphics card, memory etc. and the problem is always the case. The laptop is great and does the job very well except for this random gel that is very annoying and there is no way to explain why it is happening.

    I think maybe there is a flaw in the design of the system and components do not work together very well. I also read on a few other issues with laptops satellite which freezes. I use another laptop, and I am a computer scientist. Never had this problem before and can not explain why this laptop freezes in particular. Can anyone shed light on what could be the problem to the technician and users may be able to solve this problem.
    As I said, we have tried all what you would do to eliminate the problem and nothing has worked so far.

    Thanks in advance for your responses and suggestions.

    Hey,.

    I m wondering really that your computer laptop doesn t work properly with video applications. Friend of me has the same laptop and it often use video applications like Skype, Youtube, etc. Also, he'd watch DVD and blu - ray but no problems at all.
    It uses the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba and everything is ok.

    In your case I would ask again authorized service provider what they can do for you. I mean if many parts have been replaced already there must be a solution to your problem and if it of a hardware related problem, you can do anything and you need professional help.

    Perhaps the ASP can get in touch with Toshiba directly or else just talk a bit with them, I m sure that the problem could be solved.

    Sorry that I can't say more, but the A660 from my friend is the perfect job.

  • Satellite L630 dead after BIOS update

    Hello

    I have a problem with a Toshiba Satellite L630 laptop model PSK00E-017019EN (British model).

    An analysis of software Toshiba recommends an update of the BIOS and that I had a few problems with the laptop, I decided to let it run... big mistake!

    The laptop will now not enter bios is effectively dead.

    I downloaded different versions of the crisis Phoenix Recovery Disk (that will build a bootable USB key with MINIDOS. SYS, PHLASH16. EXE and a generic BIOS. WPH) and have also downloaded the latest version of the BIOS on the toshiba site.

    The downloaded BIOS Toshiba is an exe SL630_L635_WIN_B140.exe file that will extract the following files using WINRAR (I tried also pick up the files in %Temp%, after you run the exe with the same result).

    The files that I get are:

    BB10140. FD (4170kb)

    Ding.wav (104 KB)

    InsydeFlash.exe (764 KB)

    iscflash.dll (1760 KB)

    iscflash.sys (14 KB)

    iscflashx64.sys (23 KB)

    and platform.ini (9kb)

    I expect to see the real bios in the form xxxx.rom or xxxx. WPH so that I could add this to the bootable flash drive to reflash the bios.

    So my real question, can someone direct me to where I can download the correct BIOS. ROM file for this laptop and also where I can get the right version of the software Phoenix crisis Recovery Disk.

    Also could you confirm the correct key sequence to start on crisis Recovery flash drive... I've seen talk of the F and B FN FN (both used without battery and plugging in the adapter, then power button / stop)... the FN routine F seems to start the Flash Player, but obviously without the right file WPH will not solve the problem.

    Thank you

    Phil

    To be honest, I don t think that BIOS ROM module needs to be replaced.
    In my opinion the ROM module must be flashed again using a special disc of crisis of the BIOS.
    I recommend you contact Toshiba service and pay a small fee for the flash ROM module.
    It is much better solution to handle the motherboard.

  • Re: Satellite P300-161-Lock-ups/freeze randomly

    Hi all

    I've had my laptop Toshiba Satellite P300-161 for about 6 months now. However, in the last month or so... I've known a freeze at random the computer laptop everything.

    It usually starts at any time... then it will pause and then start to freeze again. When it freezes, it lasts about 10-15 seconds, and everything goes to "not responding". Even the keys Ctrl + Alt + Delete load the Task Manager after the stop of the gel. However, I have discovered that when it is in its 'freeze', where applications are unresponsive, I can give the laptop a gentle tap with my hand on the area of the free space to the right of the touchpad... and he thaws... It is certainly a bad thing.

    I intend to take this back to where I bought it from and have it sent to Toshiba for repair because I have a 2 year warranty with them IF I can't get some help here.

    Many need help.

    Thanks in advance,

    Benny FUNG.

    Hello!

    I m not sure because it is not easy to say what the reason for this, but have you tried to clean up your laptop using a jet of compressed air?
    Maybe the laptop is overheating and so it begins to freeze. Check it!

    You have Windows XP or Vista? Have you tried to reinstall? It is perhaps only a s software problem.
    How do you think about this?

    Good bye

  • I need some advice for the Satellite L630/03

    Hi all

    I just bought my first Toshiba L630/037 (http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/products/notebooks/satellite/l630/psk04a-037001/specifications#details) and I'm really excited that I'm waiting to load for hours first 2 or if, after perform you a unboxing conversion it!
    He looks bloody awesome and I can't wait to start using it!

    You have a few questions:
    1. when I received it, the sticker that keeps the top down was already torn (as in a person already open).
    The clerk said that everything is fine with it, so we opened it to check that the main seal for the laptop has not been broken and that the adapter and cable was there. Now that I'm home and I have everything out, I noticed that I have no CD.
    Is that suppose to be right? I'm a bit confused because the last laptop that I bought a few of the installation CD and the drivers that came with it. In addition, is there something else I should be aware of that should have been in the box?
    All I have is the power cord, power adapter, manual, portable with battery already in it.

    2. in the purchase, there are already standard warranty 1 year that comes with the laptop. I noticed on the Toshiba site, you can buy an extended warranty. Should I buy now? Or can I get, say 1 week before the end of year 1?

    If anyone has useful tips or advice that would be greatly appreciated!

    See you soon!

    > I took everything out, I noticed that I have no CD.
    Yes, that's right. No CD is delivered pre-installed Toshiba Software is on the HARD drive and you can create a clean recovery disk! Please see the operating manual!

    > Should I buy now? Or can I get, say 1 week before the end of year 1?
    Well, as far as I know you don t need to buy the extended warranty immediately after the laptop was purchased

    I found this info:
    > Q: When can I buy the extended warranty?
    > A: the extended warranty is eligible to purchase, during the period of warranty the laptop

  • 7 days old Satellite L630 - 16L crashes without reason

    Hi all

    First post!, my new Core I3 Satellite L630 - 16L (win 7 home prem 64-bit) seems to be freezing at least once a day (it seems to be only after that he was awakened fashion 'sleep' - after having closed the lid) he works when awake for about 10-15 minutes then everything freezes and have to shut down and restart?

    All the drivers are current and only toshiba newsletter I find near this lock upward / gel error refers to a driver problem for a fingerprint reader - who doesn't have this model!

    Any ideas? I have not really loaded well could try a system restore, but I don't think its related software!

    Will disable the "sleep mode" for now to see if I still have the problem tomorrow. (seems to be once a day, usually just at the moment where the navigation - not doing anything whatsoever in the background and not on a particular site, just move the mouse, it locks! I need to then press the power button / stop for 3 seconds - weird!)

    Thanks in advance
