Satellite 2430-S255 turns off during playback of video clips

My laptop Toshiba Satellite 2430-s255 turns off 5 minutes every time I play streaming video clips to web sites using Windows Media Player version 10.0. I have uninstall the version 10 and used version 9, but there is no difference. Computer has 512 meg of memory and 10 GB of additional space on the hard drive.

There is no problem when I play DVD using the same software.

Toshiba support has been telling me that cpu is working hard and it heats up because of this problem. I used the fan to circulate the air, but the computer still shuts off.

Can help.

HI Fanny,.

Any graphic activity will tend to make your laptop run more hot and therefore sufficient cooling.

Make sure that your airway through the CPU radiator is not clogged with dust and debris (a lot of discussions in this forum about this) and also ensure that there is sufficient air under your laptop knife get in the fan air vents.

  • Satellite L350 - display turns off during startup

    My screen laptop L350 itself turns off during startup after posting normally for about 2 seconds. It is possible to get the display back to normal if you go to sleep and then wake, but the new screen only stays on for about 2 seconds. This makes it almost impossible running the diagnostics.

    Does anyone have an idea what might happen?

  • Satellite P770 system turns off during recovery

    I am the owner of a Satellite P770 and during the recovery, the device turns off to 'Performance testing' stage. It has everything installed and I managed to stop the recovery process.

  • Slate 8 Pro guard blocking turned off during playback

    My HP (slate 8 - Pro) table that keeps blocking off after a few minutes even if sleep is set to 30 minutes. After a few minutes it just close the page and goes back to the home screen.  Received from the centre of Service of Calexico in lieu of my original Tablet.  I get no error message before he stops and outside apps have not made any changes. Any ideas what the problem might be?

    Hey @gsparky ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that your Tablet HP Slate Pro 8 is automatically shut down.

    Can you please clarify if the slate is to be completely turned off (to hold the power button to wake it up) or if the application closes (taking you to the home screen)?

    That you happens to all applications or is it only in a particular application?

    Try to clear the cache on the Tablet, there may be damage to the data stored in one of the applications or OS causing accidents. To do this, go to settings > storage > cached data. Touch it should give you the option to clear all the cache.

    Please clarify the question or let me know if that helps.

  • Satellite P200D-11J turns off during startup

    Hello!

    2. after facilities that require a new departure, even when it is free restartig.
    Problem solution had to wait still 10 minutes, then the laptop back. Seems to be a hardware problem to be.
    If 2 years goes well, until I had to make new XP right now. now, it comes out every time during the installation. Always in different points, cannot lie with the installation...

    What this may be? Power supply? RAM?

    Curious to your answers.

    Hello

    Maybe the laptop automatically stops due to a higher internal temperature?
    What do you think of this idea?
    If the temperature is too high, the laptop would have stops down to avoid the pieces of equipment against damage

    I think this might be a plausible explanation
    Check if the laptop is hotter and try to remove dust and debris from the modules of cooling using a jet of compressed air.

    I clean my fans from time to time, and this prevents the laptop from overheating.

  • Satellite A300 spontaneously turned off

    Hi people.

    Hoping someone can confirm what I am already assuming that or possibly help me with something that I have not yet tried.
    My daughters a300 is off spontaneously without reason apparent. Sometimes less than a minute or so but above all a few seconds now.

    Weeks began by cutting only of now & again but it has far more common constantly where it stops almost immediately in most cases. Sometimes I can go as far as the Windows logon or a live cd/usb charge but 9 times out 10 now it is turned off during, before or after the post.
    Before this stop so quickly these days that I assumed it was a Windows problem, but this is obviously not the case, I know now.

    I had the machine open and cleaned that little dust he was. All fans work fine and I have aleardy swapped virtually all bars of the motherboard & CPU.
    I tried to boot from the live Linux CD & USB without any connected main player and I also tried without the battery connected and I ran memtest on his memory in another corresponding A300, we have in addition to control his drive to find errors etc. They are all very good.

    Don't really want to spend more than £100 for a new Board of Directors, if if there's a chance again, he might still be something else that I neglected to try.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Usually the laptop automatically stops due to a higher temperature.
    If the temperature rises to a critical level, the laptop stops to prevent material damage.
    This usually happens because that the cooling fans don't properly twist because of the dust.

    But it seems that you have already cleaned the cooling modules and fans, so in this case the higher temperature may not be the problem. So it seems that there could be other reasons for this

    Unfortunately, for me it s is not possible to say what role could be affected in the worst case, it could be a motherboard problem, but it could also be a RAM problem.

    Control programs memory are ok, but the RAM modules could still work even if the memory test would detect all problems. So it of certainly worth it to use a new RAM.

    Hello

    you are somewhat familiar with computers? If not, I suggest you bring your machine to a local service partner (http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_gaspLocator.jsp?subs=tais)
    If Yes, then firstly make a few hardwaretests. You can make them with tools like "Memtest86" for memory or "Prime95" for CPU and RAM.
    This software is on a windows live cd for computer-maintenance as the UBCD4Win (Ultimate Boot CD for Windows) which contains a lot of useful tools and diagnostic programs.
    Here´s a link:
    www.UBCD4Win.com

    Other means can be:
    Clean the CPU fan, try to remove the RAM (maybe), maybe the power adapter is defective or maybe the battery.
    It s a little more difficult to find these things, but often it s really good to use this live-cd-system and check the system.

    So, try it (or not :)) and give some information about what happened, maybe to give more detailed information about the behavior of the machine.)

  • Satellite A30 is turned off

It was clogged with dust so that even when the fans were going at full speed, the device overheating and turning off. even your soundsd unit as it is overheated.

  • My Satellite L555-L11 turns off suddenly very

    Hello
    My satellite L555 L11 turns off very suddenly. It seems that it s because of the heat, as when it arrives, I put my hand under the laptop and feel a too high temperature.
    my laptop is 5 years
    What should I do?
    thx for you answer

    I think your laptop is quite full of dust and I can imagine that cooling rack is blocked so that your laptop is unable to catch his breath.

    Believe me, that cleaning can help. Best thing you can do is professional cleaning. In this case the laptop must be disassembled. Otherwise, you can buy compressed air and try to clean it.

  • Overnight battery discharged when the satellite has been turned off

    Hello

    This has happened again. My battery empties 25% from one day to the next and will be completely discharged in a week. The machine is not in hibernation, it is completely shut down. If I charge the battery and remove it from the machine it does not lose cool, which indicates a draining of the laptop. Any ideas?

    Hello

    Maybe this will help you a bit:

    I found this useful Toshiba paper on this topic:

    Battery drains 15-20% when it is turned off during the night
    http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB6B01N50013R01.htm

    This can happen if the wake on the service LAN (WOL) by the built-in LAN module is turned on

    Please check!

    -----------------------
    By the way; the loss of 2 to 4% of the power of the battery during the night is a normal state.

    A few things that might help...

    There may be a compatibility issue with some of your
    source files. Convert your audio files to the. WMA
    format before you import into Movie Maker can be useful to
    a try.

    Several formats are apparently compatible with
    Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    Also, before you save it... go to... Tools / Options / Compatibility
    tab and disable all filters / OK.

    It may be interesting to try to save the project in DV - AVI format...
    (the file size will be much larger, but the result may be better)

    XP Windows Movie Maker 2.1...
    To save a DV - AVI movie file...

    There may be a compatibility problem with music
    files. Convert to WMA format before importing
    worth try in Movie Maker.

    There are to many converters available on the net...
    Some are free - some details... the following freeware
    is but one example. :

    Contact the manufacturer of your laptop as there must be a way to restore the computer. There may be a hidden restore partition.
