Satellite C650D - CPU usage is jumping around, tracking problem

As was the case in the other thread, the main IDE channel of my Toshiba ran on Pio mode which makes the computer unusable. Uninstalling and reinstalling seemed to work, as he has begun to use the DMA mode for a few hours. Now it started again trolling, and he began to use the Pio mode again.
Tried to reinstall or uninstall and its good for a while until that he decides to go back to Pio.

What can I do to keep it in DMA mode, and what caused the implementation of Pio?

AFAIK this drivers don t exist. Specific values are set by default and that s all.

  • Satellite C650D - the CPU usage is jumping around

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite C650D 2 months ago and I used the Windows 7 that came with it, thinking that it was fine and dandy until a few days ago, he started having random lag spikes.

    At first he just happen when you watch movies (tried 4 different programs, all reinstalled the driver, scanned for malware, defragmented, you name) and then she started to occur outside the viewing of film aswell. Who did it for me, and I installed Windows XP. I did 3 times now, clean install it Windows XP. Initially, it seemed fine. For a few hours, and then it started lagging really bad, not like in Windows 7, but the CPU usage is jumping all over the boundaries between 1% and 99% at random, but there is no process to take it!

    He lags behind what I do, just open the Notepad can blow. I thought that it would work with a format clean, but no, of course the problem reoccured. It might be drivers, see problems in Windows 7 and XP are somewhat different. I'm in my intelligence ends here on what to do, whatever that is would be helpful.

    Hey Buddy,

    Looks like on your laptop is a background passes process that is causing this different and high CPU usage.

    What happens if you install Windows 7 Toshiba Recovery disk and look in the Manager of tasks? Directly after this installation, you should have a low CPU usage and stable because it s installation of Windows from Toshiba.

  • Satellite A300 - point the mouse jumps around

    Hi guys,.

    For some reason any my A300 worked just perfect and all the drivers Toshiba disspeared.
    So I have no more function keys, press the start/stop utility and so on.

    I managed to install again but synaptic touchpad driver, didn t turn off.
    I disalble and now the mouse pointer jump around like a wink on the active guides. It's driving me crazy!

    Any help or ideas how I can work on it?

    Thank you
    SEBS

    Hello

    To use the control of Toshiba and the FN keys buttons, you need to install the VAP (value added package) and the Flash Cards Support utility!
    These two tools are important if you running Vista or Win 7.

    You can also configure the touchpad again after installing the driver Synaptics and Alps.

    Please note that you can configure the touchpad in Control Panel-> mouse->-> properties pointing device.

    You will find a few options regarding the sensitivity of the touchpad!

  • Satellite Pro 6100: cursor mouse jumps around

    The mouse internal nipple on my laptop does not work, it jumps around in all directions. I tried to replace that with a USB mouse that works fine except that I hit the space bar, then the cursor will jump on the side of the screen.

    It will then continue to scroll on the side of the screen, even if I bring him back. Looked at a lot of forums and it looks like a common fault but not a miracle.

    Help, please

    Hello

    I put t think that it s a common fault. It could just be the keyboard malfunctioned.
    One of my friends has a Tecra, and the cursor of the mouse jumped crazy on the screen.
    It was not possible or very difficult to open all the windows or click on the icons.

    The service provider has changed the entire keyboard and it's a solution.
    Perhaps you will also need a replacement.

    But what happens when allows you to disable the touchpad with FN + F9 function? Make cursor jumps when you use USB mouse?

  • Satellite R830-1GZ - CPU usage high (> 25%) and increase in the speed of the fan after reactivation

    Hi all

    The CPU usage of my laptop shoots upward to 25% (and beyond) and increases in fan speed considerably after waking up, but only when I use an external mouse (Microsoft Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000) - disconnect the mouse once it happened does not solve the problem, so I always have to restart my computer if I let go sleep with the connected mouse.

    I noticed that when this produces the system interrupts - delayed appeals procedure and Interrupt Service routine appears in the resource monitor > CPU > process and seems to explain the increase in the use of the processor.

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem would be most appreciated.

    I use a Toshiba Satellite R830 1GZ with Windows 7 (64-bit). This problem will not occur when I use the same mouse with another laptop (Dell with Windows XP).

    Thank you very much.

    I think that the process that controls the mouse MS WLan does not close properly.
    The system to memorize it and therefore the cooling module begins to spin faster because these processes stressed the central unit.

    Maybe its caused by the mouse driver
    Have you checked if there is an update to the driver?

  • Satellite T130-10T: high CPU usage for no apparent reason

    I have a brand new satellite T130.
    Unboxing conversion, I noticed that the CPU usage is most of the time very high, even if it has nothing (no application does not work).

    Sometimes it hits 100% and rest there for a few minutes.
    I installed the most recent BIOST I could find on the Toshiba site, but nothing changes.

    Any ideas?
    I don't like just-out-the-box-unit already causes disorders!

    Hi mate

    There are many applications that run in the background.
    Most of them is installed by Toshiba and these tools control the features of the laptop as keys FN, multi, eco button command buttons, etc.

    You can see the ruing applications in the Task Manager. There you can also see what background process requires the use of the CPU.

  • Satellite A40-231 - 100% CPU usage when any browser works

    Hello
    my laptop is satellite A40-231, I have a problem for days.

    When I open any browser (I tried firefox, IE and chrome) I can't watch the video, everything is slowing down, I can't navigate between pages.

    I took a quick glance to the use of the cpu and it increase to 100%, it never decreases. When I close the browser, the CPU usage drops to 15%, which is normal. I thought it might be a virus that internet connection and make things slower. That's why I format my laptop. I deleted all of my hard drive and reformatted. I installed Windows again, but he has not changed. I even installed ubuntu (I thought maybe virus can not work under ubuntu), but it's the same thing. I turn on my laptop and I open a browser and the laptop slows. I have clean the cpu fan it has not helped.

    I tried to solve it for days I could not sleep properly, I'm about to cry :(

    Please help me please.

    Hello

    You have reinstalled Windows using the Toshiba Recovery disk? This drive will restore the settings from the factory with all the drivers and tools so everything should work fine after that.

    In addition this happens with LAN or WLAN connection? You should try it with the other connection.
    Also check your router and update the firmware. Try to disable the encryption, MAC address filtering, etc.

  • Satellite A45 - the CPU usage is high and slow applications

    Hi all

    I'm trying to debug a hardware problem on my Toshiba Satellite A45. I am running Ubuntu 10.04, but I don't think that it's operating system or related software.

    THE PROBLEM: The CPU usage is high and applications slowly to a crawl after using an intensive application of memory for a few minutes, i.e. to watch a video or a game. Basically, anything that could use the screen much. If instead, I work only from a prompt, even when the application could do a lot of work, I do not encounter this problem. After stopping all applications, the CPU usage is always higher than normal (90% idle, should normally be slowed down to about 99%).

    Xorg now typically showing about 6% (normally use< 2%).="" if="" i="" at="" any="" time="" after="" this="" try="" to="" work="" in="" any="" application,="" usage="" is="" still="" bogged="" down.="" only="" a="" reset="" gets="" me="" back="" to="">

    Note: My system has always worked very well and I did not made the installation of the software or changes when it started to happen.
    However, the laptop is a 800 miles round trip at the rear of the car in a padded bag.

    DEBUG: This doesn't seem to be the RAM that I replaced the RAM and reinstall the RAM, and the problem persists. This doesn't seem to be the hard drive that I can try to run it from a Live CD (without use of HARD drive) and yet everything slows to a crawl.

    HELP: I don't know how to debug from here.
    I don't have extra pieces of hardware to make swaps.

    Any ideas more how to debug this?

    Thank you

    Hello

    > I am running Ubuntu 10.04, but I don't think that it's operating system or related software.
    It s interesting why you think that this may be software related issue

    I think that it is a typical software problem because the RAM and the HARD drive has been verified you have reported this in the message

    So what to say maybe some virus or malware likely to obstruct the CPU and the memory usage
    Or there is some process in the background that are not properly

    I recommend you to reinstall the Windows operating system or another distribution of Linux that runs NO Live CD, but which is installed on the HARD drive
    I m sure that s kind of the process that is disabled and crashes somewhere in the background

  • Satellite A300-1IE - CPU usage high with Bluetooth active

    Hello!

    I recently installed Windows 7 and the Toshiba Software Installer on my Satellite A300-1IE.

    I have a problem with the bluetoothmanager, it's more than double the CPU usage when turned on. When I close the CPU usage goes down.
    This is not normal?

    When the BT active CPU usage is 9 to 15% and when not 1-3%

    Seems to be high. Try an update of the Bluetooth stack.

  • Satellite C670D-10W - Task Manager shows 100% CPU usage

    My new laptop with windows 7 factory-installed and all programs by Toshiba nothing addded present 100% of the CPU usage in the task Manager and works quite slow. The sum of 80 strange process in the Task Manager is never more than 30 to 50%, but the key is always 100%.

    Process hacker I tried 2, shows the same process in Task Manager.
    What can be the problem?

    Hey Malki,

    He run a background process and they need the CPU usage that of normal. Antivirus is running in the background like other tools as well. As far as I know after the installation of recovery the defragmentation tool runs also in the background.

    Interesting to know is what problem you have. I mean usually the CPU usage is not important if you can do everything and computer works correctly.

    You have problems?

  • Satellite P100-219: model seesaw in the CPU usage graph / wireless switch

    Has anyone noticed a trend sawtooth in the graph of CPU usage (quickly repeat that 10% performance spikes) in idle operation? Crampons disappeared after I switched the wireless (WLAN & BT) light...

    Hello

    Usually, if the 3rd program tries to connect to the WLan or the BT will increase the CPU usage. It s not easy to say why it happens because no one knows what you have installed on your laptop, or what settings unique applications have.

  • Excessively the CPU usage high on my Equium M70

    Hello

    Recently in the last month my summer CPU usage hit 100% when I m not running any software tax (only internet explore and windows media player).

    It is slowing down the load time and the area near the fan is hot enough.

    I have a Satellite M70-337, with a 1.7 centrino processor and now 2 GB of RAM (formerly 512 megabytes). I upgraded the ram in December and had no problems like that, now it just started happening recently, I have installed everything that would, there is no unnecessary programs running and it was after I restored my computer to factory with the startup disk settings (a month later), he seems to have come from nowhere. On the list of the Task Manager it shows my web browser and Media Player by using most of the CPU, but I could have sworn that they use so far before.

    I don't know if the RAM would have been a factor, but it was the correct RAM for it and windows recognized to 2 GB.

    Why would it suddenly happened any ideas guys?

    Hello

    I have the same model of laptop and at the moment I have no such problems. To be honest, I did new installation OS 3 months ago and after installing Microsoft Update, I noticed this laptop does not work as before. Just for example: if I use IE7 extensively with several different tabs in the Task Manager I can see this need for IE more than 300,000 k of memory and crashes somehow. After the closure of the IE and ending THE process sin Task Manager I can work normally again.

    I don't really know how your operating system is configured, but in the Task Manager, you should see what running process is responsible for the high CPU usage. Maybe some antivir application? Sorry, but it is really not easy to sayt why this happens. Play around with the current process.

  • High CPU usage while browsing with flash content more

    I know that this can cause a several times but still problem persists even after the rest of most of the stages (analysis of malware, disabling content flash etc.). MY model is certainly an old one 910 series motherboard intel with onboard graphics card intel 128 MB running windows xp professional service pack 3. I have recent changes to the system, but that it faces from the 1 of the past month, I started. Flash games used to work properly without lag and without using a lot of CPU, but for a 1 month, he started late as * and CPU spikes almost at 100%, while the jumps game and even during web browsing with flash content and decreases rapidly after you load the page completely. I tried to disable hardware acceleration but still problem. Hope that I find the solution earlier. Thanks in advance.

    Hi Vijay,

    1. Exactly how you try to play the games? Games online or offline?
    2. If you are referring to online games so what web browser are you using to play the games?

    If you use internet Explorer, then, refer to the following.

    When you browse a Web page in Microsoft Internet Explorer, the CPU usage meter in Task Manager may indicate 100% CPU usage. Because of this behavior, other programs may slow down or crash. For example, if you read a video DVD, an audio DVD or audio CD while you scroll through a Web page, you may strain video or audio.

    This problem may occur on some computers if the option of scroll smooth use is enabled in Internet Options.

    Note By default, the use smooth scrolling option is enabled in Internet Explorer.

    To work around this problem, disable the option of scroll smooth use in Internet Explorer. To do this, follow these steps:

    (a) click the Start button and then click Control Panel.

    (b) in the Control Panel, make sure you are in Classic view, with all the control panel display icons. If this is not the case, click switch to Classic view in the left pane of the control panel.

    (c) click Internet Options to open the Internet Options dialog box. Click the Advanced tab and scroll down to the settings: navigation on topic. Select or clear the Use smooth scrolling check box.

    (d) click OKand then click the close button.
