Satellite 1400-103 works 10 min then shuts down completely in WMP or WinDVD

Hi, I need help with my Toshiba S1400-103. Initially, it would not load WinXp. It would save power as options GUI installation process. Then I ran an installation on a different machine and then brought back the HARD drive to the S1400-103. It starts very well.
NOTE: do not cut. I managed to load other applications successfully. The redone problem surface when I try to run Media Player or WinDVD. He is racing for 10 min and then shuts down completely. This laptop has been giving me questions since I bought it. The local repair center could not help and they advised I have bring to another center of reapair in South Africa.

What is the cause... is a hardware inherant problem or a software problem. The amazing thing is it load Win98 perfectly and does not cut. It just does not perform normally. I did the updates to the BIOS and all.

I'm an inch short of throughing this thing out the window.

Please HELP someone!

Hi Calvin,

I think your problem is overheating is causing your laptop turn off. DVD playback generally uses a good amount of CPU, and I suspect that it's causing overheating. A sismilar situation would arise when you try to install from the installation CD. In this case, the laptop uses a lot of CPU/HDD/CD and even once will result in overheating.

Make sure that the cooling system is free of dust and debris and that there is a sufficient air flow and cooling through the laptop.

Also, make sure you have power for maximum performance management settings.

Kind regards

  • No sound on Satellite 1400-103

    I have no sound after I re-formatted my Satellite 1400-103. I tried a number of drivers, including the last ALI WDM Audio Driver. The system indicates that the audio device is not functioning and there is no conflict of interest. I checked the BIOS and it is the most recent version.

    What is strange, is that in the system of sounds if I click to beep (for example critical stop) the reading rather depressed rest button popping back up after a second or two.

    I had a few people to look on this and start from scratch, nothing helps. Any suggestion or help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    I guess there is no hardware problem, but only wrong settings.
    Did you check the other controller devices Audio & Sound?

    Will you please and besides I'll give advice to check the volume on the side of the laptop control.
    Do you use headphones? Connect the Headphone Jack to check if you get sound.

  • Replacing the hard drive on the satellite 1400-103

    But it has not been detected, can it be fixed?
    TIA

    Hi TIA

    I'm a bit confused. Your device comes with 20 GB of HARD drive. Usually, there is problem if someone wants to build in the HARD drive with a much higher capacity. The disc HARDER it who are you talking is just with 4.3 GB. Why you want to use this HARD drive on your device?

    My opinion is that if you want to exchange the HARD drive, you must use the same as one with a higher capacity. This small, you can use as disk external DRIVE for backup of data.

  • "display driver has stoped working, but was recovered" and then shuts down the system. "

    I have a problem with the opening of my yahoo email because my computer just Bonnac outside and flashes once or twice and says "display driver has stoped working, but was recovered" then shuts down the system. " Itsriving crazy me :(     (I have windows vista & pentium bicoeur.)

    This means that there is a problem with your graphics card. I suggest that to update your Windows and check of course latest service pack installed. Also check Windows problem and Solution Center and see if everything suggested installation listed there. It can make it appear to update your graphic card.

    If this isn't the case, try looking in the card of your gaphic provider or your PC support Web site to update its driver.

  • If I leave tabs open when I close Firefox then shut down PC, are the tabs available to hackers?

    I did not have this problem but someone at work warned me not to leave the tabs open when I stopped because the tabs open when the browser opens again... which is what I want, but she explained that open the tabs without having to re-enter passwords, so even if the PC is off hackers can get into the tabs already protected by. It makes no sense to me, but she is adamant, saying his bank account was wiped out because she didn't close her bank tab on its browser when the computer is shut down.

    If your computer is turned off, it cannot be hacked. In addition, you can set your preferences to not save passwords if you wish. But no, if your computer is turned off are not accessible (for obvious reasons). For better security, you can use a master password in Firefox or put a password on your PC if someone turns on it back, they need to put a password. Use a master password to protect stored logins and passwords
