• Portege R600-10 q keeps freezing after a short period of use

  Hi I have a Portege R600-10, q,

  It keeps freezing after a short period of use - although if I leave it for a few minutes, sometimes it can be useful.
  If it is turned on for long enough, it will display a blank screen and the fans will turn on very hard.

  I cleaned ports ventilation and re-glued the CPU, and it did not make a difference.

  I ran HDD and memory (mhdd/memtest) diagnostics, and they have all done.

  I reinstalled Windows (from the OEM disc) and I still see the same question.

  Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?
  Thank you

  Hello

  Have you noticed that when running special software or apps?

  I can tell you that a memtest does not always provide a good result
  Even if the memtest said there is no problem with memory, RAM modules could malfunction

  Otherwise, it may be a motherboard problem, but this is just speculation

• Satellite A100 - keeps freezing and crashing

  Hello
  I've got a 2.5 years old Satellite A100. He was going well until recently, when I found that the pc freezes completely - this looks only happen when I move the cursor on the screen. The only thing I can do, it's a hard re-boot.
  The problem has become more common, and I had to reinstall the operating system (using the disc that came with the laptop). After you have reinstalled everything worked well. But all of a sudden the same problem reappeared. I thought maybe it was different software clash between them and so I once again re-formatted the hard drive and reinstalled the operating system.
  This time it froze once more as I move the mouse around the screen. But it's happened before that I had installed anything on the PC. It is an entirely new installation.

  I also want to mention that this problem occurred first a year ago. At that time I had to wipe the hard drive and reinstall the OS and it worked fine until about 2 weeks ago, when I've updated my "spybot search & destroy ' software." It was after this the problem started again. The rest of the story is as above.

  Just to mention that, after that the problem started 2 weeks ago, I reinstall the mouse driver using the touchpad driver that is available on the Web from Toshiba site.

  Please help - I have been re - install the OS on / off power for 2 weeks now and I still have the problem. I am close to giong out and buy a new PC!

  Hello

  It's strange, and I think it looks like a hardware issue because you used the disk recovery Toshiba and after that, the same problem occurs.

  But it's not easy to say what causes this problem. You can check the RAM and HARD drive using Drive Fitness Test and Memtest86. Use Google to find the two programs. You can download an image bootable in these two programs. You must burn it to a CD and boot from it.
  If the peut t-tests is a mistake your laptop should be checked by a technician for laptop.

  Maybe you can find the problem yourself, and to swap the RAM or HARD drive, it's pretty easy.

• Pavilion dv2000 laptop computer under Win 7, slows down or freezes for a short period.

  My Pavilion dv2000 running Win 7, slows down or freezes for a short period of time where, what seems to be, a talk-show audio plays.  Someone knows how to turn off tv and audio if you use no background.

  I solved the problellm. After stripping the system of all the games and all other third party software, I discovered that the problem would occur when connected my net. If I started and did not attach the net audio problem has not occure.  It turns out that one of the files system temp to explore has been altered by a virus which, down, loaded each time that the system connected to the net.  Problem showed when testing the hard drive.  Ran the disk check which fixed the corrupt files, then reinstalled win 7 and other necessary software.  All right.

• WVC80N hangs or stops working after a short period of time

  Hey there,

  I created my WVC80N yesterday.  Went to a couple came back, he was frozen, no new video.  He did this ever nonstop.  I had to reboot the computer to make it work again. Obviously a big problem, but one that I hope there is a fix for or can I do something wrong.

  I use win 7 and tried both the software supplied with the cam and webcam xp5, they both lose the connection with the cam after a short period of time.

  Thanks for any help on this one,

  CR

  @crjb1, have you got it working under Linux?  I tried for about a week without result.  I noticed that Linksys-Cisco offers a GPL had driver/module for the wvc54gc, but not for the wvc80n.  Maybe I would have thought a little before you get all excited and buying this.

  The video quality when connecting to the web server of the camera is fine, but I can't get a stream using zoneminder video or else and the RTSP protocol feed doesn't seem to work at all.

• Vista home basic sreen turns black after a short period after start-up

  Vista home basic sreen goes black after a short period after start-up and then later after that stop he returned after starting, and then did the same thing

  Restore point:

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   

  If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

  And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  See you soon.

• Laptop keeps freezing after starting

  My laptop (HP pavilion tx2500) keeps freezing after the start, there is no error message warning that the thing just crashes without warning moments after startup, someone had this problem and know how to solve this problem.

  It could be a number of things, then we should try to eliminate some. Try to enter the HP utilities but endearing running tests of disk and tape on the F10 key, I think and hard memory.  Try to run Notepad without the battery installed and just the power adapter.  Try to use one piece of memory and try the two slots. Then try the other room and try the two slots.  If you don't have that one piece of memory, at least try the other location.  Try a hard reset:

  Hello

  I think that in this case you must go to an authorized service provider. If the laptop freeze during the BIOS update module ROM needs to be reflashed.

  On the Toshiba site, you can search nearest ASP and download all the drivers. Check this box:

  Hello

  The forum already contains these discussions where notebooks will freeze after 5 or 10 minutes of play. Have you read them?

  Now it s not easy to say what causes this problem but first of all you need to install the latest driver of Toshiba display. Don t use non-Toshiba drivers, as they can cause the overheating!

  Also make sure that you use the latest version of the BIOS and it s useful to clean the laptop time using a jet of compressed air.
