• Re: Satellite A500/026 shows Blue Screen of Death

  Hi all

  Just a quick winge / to complain/ask for help!

  I recently acquired a Satellite A500/026 for Christmas (2009)

  I installed Windows 7 via Toshiba built in software thingy, 64-bit, and it was running ok, then all of a sudden I started having screens blue rightbefore death or after the logon screen appears, usually blah blah less_than_zero or something.

  in any case being the computer genuis Franklin that I am :) I decided to reformat, ok cool, so I did that, now it is 32-bit, windows 7, with no new program installed, and it continues to give me the same problems. Apartment to send it into the Toshiba people, what can I do >?

• Satellite A500 - 19(d) - blue screens and restarts suddenly

  I am the most unfortunate customer or this model again? No one has problems with the A500 - 19(d)?
  I bought, five days ago a new. First start: blue screen. Second: blue screen. Third: F8 safe mode → → can through the entire current configuration.
  Then start: party started. A few times the blue pro displays time and restarts. Tempro have 2 messages based: BIOS and WLAN driver update. Update BIOS message: your BIOS is newer or the same thing. Updated WLAN: no driver for my Realtek RTL819 * 1 * SE for Win7.

  Two days in vain have off turned parts and drivers downloaded. Third day: I have restored the laptop in its original original (thanks to the recovery of hard disk based) configuration and wanted to put back to give. But a small miracle happens (it's Christmas... or?)  :-)): no more blue screens. OK... just to start, it starts two or three times until OK and then just two or three times suddenly restarts a day. Yet once the drivers downloaded in vain. No change. Someone has an idea? It must be something wrong with the drivers in safe mode, that's OK. Again, there should be a driver it is loaded at startup (blue screen of the first and the second). I really like this laptop but have bought for work not for pleasure and, in this way, its quite risky, so I have to change them.

  Stand by. Maybe I've misunderstood something and have to ask you once again: have you noticed this BSOD problem with State factory and without additional software installation?

  Last month I had friends Satellite A500 for the test and I did not notice this kind of problems with original Vista and also clean install of Win7.
  If you really think that it can be risky for you I recommend you exchange it again.

• Satellite A500-19 x - blue screen suddenly appears in Windows 7

  I have the satellite a500-19 x,
  There is a problem in every time and every day when I'm working.
  All of a sudden the windows stopped a few moments and then blue screen and restart windows.

  Hello

  It would be interesting to know, you have the code BSOD
  I've read many threads on BSOD and in most cases, it s about the graphics card driver or other drivers who seems to be some trouble with Win 7.

  First you need to update the BIOS and Windows 7, then you should try updating the graphics card driver.

  Good luck

• Satellite A500 - 18 X - blue screen with error jmcr.sys

  Hi all

  I have the Toshiba Satellite A500 - 18 X. I get several errors with a blue screen that is associated with a file called jmcr.sys, I used the recovery process, but the problem persists.

  Can someone tell me what could be the problem? Is it a virus, a hardware malfunction or some drivers not up-to-date?

  Thank you

  Hello

  If you have already used the recovery disk Toshiba it appears to be a malfunction of the equipment. I don't see a reason for a software problem, because the Toshiba Recovery disk restore factory settings and these settings are pre-tested by Toshiba

  So most blue screens are related to defective RAM modules. You can test them using Memtest86. It is a diagnostic tool where you can download an iso image for creating a startup disk.

• On firefox memory leaks cause blue screens?

  On firefox memory leaks cause blue screens?

  If you encounter blue screen crashes, this majority refers often to an incompatibility with a device driver, especially the graphics drivers. Go to Firefox Safe Mode and disable the use of Firefox hardware acceleration of graphics.

  Assuming that Firefox is closed:

  Hold down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox. You should get a small dialog box. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not reset).

  (If Firefox is running, use Help > restart with disabled modules to call the dialog box.)

  In Firefox, open the Options of the Advanced tab dialog box:

  the button Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) > Options > advanced

  In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck the box for "use hardware acceleration when available.

  This will take effect after you exit Firefox and start it up again (in normal mode).

• Satellite L20 - 101 - Sound driver causes blue screen

  1. my laptop is a Satellite L20-101. It worked fine until yesterday when I reinstalled the system (from recovery cd) after 3 years. I have updated the bios to version 1.70 (drawn from the toshiba site). Devices audio conexant could not be recognized, and if I run the installation of the latest audio drivers (sound-20080604145033), it fixes the problem, but when you restart the system and login as administrator I get a blue screen. Any help pls?

  2. given that the LAN card is working, there is a message for the installation of a driver for a network device!

  3. when the system starts up, I get an error 0 x 57 for toshiba power saver. Even when I reinstalled ver 7.03.02.I from toshiba Web site the problem remains.

  Thanks in advance
  Maxco

  Hi maxco,.

  About its pilot I n don't know why you're getting a blue screen with the latest version, but I advise to use the preinstalled version of Toshiba recovery disc. So try a point-to-point previous system restore.

  Driver LAN and Toshiba Power Saver, you can download from the official site. Relocation of these tools should work!

• Satellite A60: Stop message blue screen

  First of all Hello to all,

  I ve just joined and hope that someone can help. I have a Satellite A60 which began to close and coming up with this message on a blue screen...

  A problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer. The problem seems to be caused by the following file: Ati2vag. The device driver got stuck in an infinite loop. This usually indicates problem with the driver itself or incorrect programming hardware device driver.
  Please check with your hardware device vendor updates the driver. Technical information: dump Stop: 0x000000ea (0xff332da8, 0xffbb59bo, 0xfaf9fcbc, 0x00000001) Ati2vag beginning of physical dump. END

  had this laptop for 10 months and it started recently and stops now 2 or 3 times a night, thank you in advance for any help.

  Hello

  I have the same opinion. Try to start the unit in safe mode and remove the display driver. Restart the device and install driver designed by Toshiba. If there is no success please write again.

• Latest Skype causes Blue Screen of Death

  Whenever I have install/update Skype on windows 7 to the current version, I get a blue screen as I can't use older versions because he says "Skype cannot connect." Any help on any of these questions is accepted. Thank you.

  You have the well known problem of the Webcam HP HD [Fixed] .

  The last 6.16/6.18 Skype are causing BSOD on HP laptops with this installed webcam.

  You can try to uninstall the version 6.18 and install the previous 6.14.0.104 Skype version using the download links provided here:

  http://community.Skype.com/T5/Windows-desktop-client/ASUS-USB2-0-webcam-not-recognized-by-Skype-6-18...

  Be sure to turn off the automatic updates.

  Tools-> Options-> Advanced-> automatic updates-> turn off automatic updates

  The other option is to uninstall the HP drivers and install generic Microsoft webcam drivers.

• Satellite P200D-12f PSPBQE - blue screen when waking up from sleep

  Hello again!

  I feel blue screen problems when I close my laptop and open it again (while he wakes up).
  It says something about Ati blah blah.

  I find that very annoying reseting every time the PC cuz he went to sleep... any1 has / had similar problems?

  What can I do about it? I had b4 of win xp on my laptop (toshiba don't support even xp for this model) and it worked perfectly, even not a problem... and now with win 7 I have millions of problems and win7 is supported!

  > I feel some problems blue screen when I close my laptop and open it again (while he wakes up).
  > It says something about Ati blah blah.

  Blabla ATI means that the BSOD is related to the ATI graphics card chip or graphics card installed driver.

  If Win XP worked perfectly, then the problem must be caused by software installed. Maybe the graphics driver...

  I recommend the update driver graphics card and if necessary, update the BIOS.

• Satellite Pro A200-1MA: blue screen STOP: 0x000000D1 Error

  Hello

  I have Toshiba Satellite Pro A200-1MA and Vista 32 bit. My problem is: when I work on my internet laptop notebook and use blue screen shows:

  http://img142.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc00238yh0.jpg and resets.

  Sometimes not regularly, but often enough [sometimes 1 by day, other times 3 per day].
  It becomes quite boring, I can't work on a laptop without fear, I have nevery secondly it may restart and I will lose any unsaved work.

  Thanks for help.

  Hello

  Do you use the preinstalled Toshiba image?
  I ask because sometimes the BSOD can be caused by serious software problem. But to be honest, it looks like a hardware malfunction.
  In my view, the RAM modules could be affected

  I have a 6 year old using my laptop BSOD the BSOD appeared after several hours of use one I thought that it s a faulty RAM I replaced it, but the issue was not resolved finally I discovered that the temperature affected modules of RAM alone and the laptop froze and BSOD appeared
  Finally, I checked the grids of cooling and cleaned using compressed air jet that it helped

  But buddy note; This does not mean that your problem can be caused by high temperature. It s only a hypothesis, and in my opinion, a technician of the laptop should check the laptop to ensure that's exactly wrong.

  Good luck
