Satellite A200 - freeze occasionally and fade to the white of the screen

I have a satellite A200, bought new last year. Sometimes the computer crashes, the screen starts fading to white and darker horizontal and vertical lines appear on the screen. I pressed the power switch until it turns off so I can restart, but after the reboot, it works fine. Initially this has happened only rarely, but it's starting to happen more and more lately.

It happens very suddenly and it makes no difference, what I'm doing at the time. Sometimes it does just after the market. Does anyone know why he could do that? I'm not very technically savvy, so I would appreciate if you could explain it to me in a way I could understand :)

I heard of some people having the same problem and can be caused by faulty wiring in the monitor. If this is the problem is it likely to be covered by warrantly?

You also have this problem on an external monitor? If this isn't the case, it sounds like a problem internal monitor and I think that it should be replaced.

If your laptop is still under warranty the repair should be free for you. So in your case I would contact the nearest ASP that you can find on the Toshiba site:

Good luck!

  • Re: Satellite A200-1BQ, does not not after the screen saver

    Hi, I have a Satellite A200, 32-bit Windows 7 OS. When you use the screensaver to the PC stop responding. Have to spend because no response.

    If you have a report some problem send it please.

    Hello

    This means that Windows 7 hangs and does not answer only when the screen saver has been activated?
    Have you noticed the same problem with Win XP or Win Vista?

    If not then this behavior of the laptop could be related only to Win 7 and I think that it might be caused by the graphic card driver

    Remove the graphics driver that you have installed and test the screen saver using the common windows driver 7

    It would be interesting to know what is happening

  • Satellite A200-22I - DHCP and SENSE of the problems when you start Windows Vista

    Hello

    What do you mean with SENSE? I never heard tell about.

    I put t know what are the causes of the problem too but did you look in Event Viewer? Sometimes, it's really useful.
    If you have a network problem, you must update the driver WLAN or LAN (depending on whether you are using). You can find it on the Toshiba site:

  • Satellite A200 - 1C0 - overheating and close

    Hello world:

    I ve got a Satellite A200 - 1C0 PSAE0E and since one month, it stops due to overheating (hybridized with hot CPU). The fact is that when I restart the computer to the BIOS screen, fan of the processor begins to work at a very high speed (to cool the CPU), but to start Windows to start the fan suddenly stops, and the fact is that the CPU is always at 78 degrees celsius.

    I tried updating the BIOS, reinstall windows recovery partition and all components, but it does not solve anything. Also tried to install Windows 7 and still nothing and windows Xp and still nothing. I Don t know what else to do. Help will be apreciated.

    Thank you very much.

    Hey,.

    To properly clean your cooling system, see this article from Toshiba:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD7A01ZZ000AR01.htm

    Another reason could be the old thermal grease and maybe, it must be renewed. If t, you can do it yourself, ask a technician for laptop help! :)

  • Satellite A200 - password disk HARD 'frozen' in the BIOS

    Satellite A200 computer laptop does not recognize the HARD drive.
    Reconstruction of the disk with Vista or XP - Pro (on another machine) have proved to be unsuccessful.

    Originally, continually blue machine armored and quicky restarted, Machine was infected by the virus and Trojans that I believe have damaged BIOS. The BIOS now appears to have 'frozen' a HARD drive password (unknown) which transfers any HARD drive new - perpetuating the problem.

    Any ideas or suggestions are welcome, thanks.

    Hello

    Usually, you should be able to remove the HARD drive password in the BIOS.
    You have to put the old HARD drive password must use ENTER to put an empty string as a new HARD drive password and you will need to confirm this
    Save the changes and restart again

    If this procedure is not possible or does not work then there must be something wrong with the BIOS, module ROM BIOS or motherboard.
    Maybe an update of BIOS/reflash could be useful, but generally all passwords must be removed before attempting a BIOS updates, which could be risky
    I think you should get in touch with a local ASP and need to ask for help, maybe the technician will be able to reflash the BIOS

    Welcome & good luck

  • Satellite C660D-102 blocks when past to the screen saver

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C660D-102 of Windows 7 OS. Basically, if my computer is left unattended, and goes to the screen saver, it freezes and has to be restarted by holding down the power button. If I'm listening to the music, makes a loud noise when it does this until it is turned off.

    Anyone has any ideas of what could be the cause?
    Thanks, Matt

    + The message was edited: changed name of the laptop.

    Hi Matt

    To be honest, this laptop T series is unclear to me. What is the correct model name or model number?
    Are you using the original pre-installed OS?
    Have you noticed this problem since the day where we?
    Do you use the standard Windows screensaver?
    Did you install additional software that is running in the background?

    Sorry for these questions but it is not easy to give you simple answer and specifies what may be the problem.

  • Satellite Pro 4600 - very low picture on the screen

    Guys, I really need help.

    I picked up on old satellite pro 4600 eBay and have rebuilt the thing - everything works EXCEPT the screen - I get a very small image, even on the start screen.

    So far I have - changed the cable lcd - no effect. changed the Panel itself, no effect and inverter (4 times!).

    Any suggestions? Driver problem? Setting I missed somewhere? Motherboard problem?

    Hmmm. My first thought was the faulty FL inverter.
    Are you sure you used the right and compatible FL inverter? A connect it correctly?

    What about the keys FN + F6/F7? It allows to set the brightness to a higher level?

    Then maybe you should check for this possibility.

  • every time I erase content and settings on my iphone 6 after reset at the start of my phone and after crossing the screen as Hello > select language > Connect wifi > my iphone doesnot ask me activation lock even if my unit is also found on

    every time I erase content and settings on my iphone 6 after reset at the start of my phone and after crossing the screen as Hello > select language > wifi connection > my iphone doesnot ask me lock activation that says that your iphone is connected with the old apple ID, please enter the id and password

    I always reset on find my optional equipment please tell me how to activate locking activation so that whenever I have factory reset my phone with finding my camera so my phone always ask an old apple and password

    I do not understand your question, but let me go with what I believe. Looks like you entered in iCloud and erased all the content and settings on the iPhone, and once you go by assigning back up again, you do not see something that you expect to see, for example, a request for an Apple ID. When you go through the installation process to select the language, etc., it must, at some point, ask you to identify yourself with your Apple ID. are you not see this?

    It would be better if you try to describe exactly what you do again. Also, without the help of any sign of punctuation, it is difficult to track everything you ask. Try providing the steps of what you do, and then what you see when you get to the point that you believe that something is going wrong. You mention both an old and new Apple ID, which is rather confusing.

    And how one removes the Christmas lights that have been offered as a decoration for the top and bottom of the screen. They tend to hide the navigation bar. Several days ago Firefox gave the 'dress-up' in a message.

    It seems that https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/christmas-lights/ is added as an extension, but is categorized as a character (lightweight themes). Go to tools > Modules then check extensions and themes, and then uninstall it.

    Now that the status bar is now the toolbar addons that I see those that are listed are all personas and they do not affect the toolbar addons you would also find a theme, and think that it must be very confused now that I no longer able to filter topics with a Google addons research - phooey.

  • Qosmio F30-112 - small strips and dots on the screen

    Hello

    I need help, my laptop (Qosmio F30 - 112) have a problem.
    When I started it scratch on the screen and flashes.
    Then if I try to reboot it works, but not normal; still have a small scratches and dots on the screen.
    I checked it on the Device Manager NVIDIA GForce with a yellow mark.
    I tried to uninstall it but nothings happened.

    Please some body help me what to do in this case?

    And if you have to replace the VGA CARD, is it possible to upgrade? and what (NVIDIAGforce) parts are compatible for my laptop (RAM memory upgraded 4 GB 320 GB hard drive and windows 7 Home premium)

    Thank you
    rtmasagca

    Hello

    Have you tried to install or update the display driver?
    Please check this because the yellow exclamation mark in Device Manager may mean that the display driver is missing and so the graphics card does not work properly.

    Otherwise, it could be a GPU problem.
    This can be tested easily; connect an external monitor and check if the same stripes, points would be visible on the monitor that is eternal.

    If Yes, then it s certainly a GPU problem.
    In this case, only the replacement of the motherboard might help.
    Also, upgrade is not possible.
