Satellite L350D-201 - screen keeps freezing sometimes

Hello

I was wondering if someone could help, Ive had my laptop Toshiba L350D-201, a little less than 7 months and recently the screen just freezes.

Judgment of the mouse and the keyboard is not the answer to all commands such as Ctrl/alt/del and the only way to restart it is to turn it off by the main button.
It can happen twice within 10 minutes or not arrive for a few hours.

I was wondering if someone could help as Ive had no problems with it at all for now

Thank you

Murray

Hi mate

Have you noticed a higher temperature while the laptop freezes?

From my own experience, a higher temperature may affect the functionality of the laptop and can lead to portable gel.
Also a RAM could be affected by the higher temperature.

You can clean the cooling modules using compressed air spray it maybe helps
.
Of course, the problem might be related to a software problem display maybe driver malfunctions. In such cases, it s advisable to reinstall the operating system and update the display driver.

  • Satellite L300-1DI screen keeps freezing

    This isn't the first problem iv met before with this laptop and in each case, I had to restore to factory, removing everything. The problem I have now is that the screen of the laptop freezes after about ten-fifteen minutes from start-up. If im watching a video, the sound will still play, but not the image.
    Anyone know what the underlying problem and if there is a way to overcome this problem?
    Thank you

  • Screen keeps freezing on Satellite P300D

    Hello everyone,

    One of my friends has a Toshiba Satellite P300D - 15 c and its screen keeps freezing (stripes, colors).

    It happens randomly and he told me that the laptop is pretty hot.

    Known problems with this? Memory failure? Out of the video card?

    Hello

    > he told me that the laptop is pretty hot.
    No doubt, in this case due to a higher internal temperature
    Your friend is already cleaned the laptop?

    Hello Kluggerjo,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community Support from Apple. I know how important it must be able to count on your devices work as expected, and I have a few steps that should help resolve the behaviors you see.

    I would recommend to go by resetting your management system (SCM) controller. MSC helps control and regulate different material on your Mac, including Bluetooth systems.  This article will guide you in this process: reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac.

    If you still experience the issue after the test, you can test the behavior to a test user. This will help us to determine if the problem is systemic or isolated to your user account. This article will guide you in this process: How to test a question in another account on your Mac user

    If the behavior is duplicated to the test user, I'd recommend reinstalling El Capitan. This will not delete your data. To reinstall using the recovery mode, take a look at this article: How to reinstall OS X

  • Satellite A660-07 s keeps freezing

    Last January, I bought a Toshiba portable computer satellite 07 s and it keeps freezing. Mainly, it freezes when commissioning, the awakening of the sleeping and, recently, it started freezing when I unplugged the headset jack.

    I took the laptop in the service desk at the store that I bought it to and they told me to do a system restore, but it has not been working for a long time. I recently took in a second time and he sent me to a Toshiba service center they couldn t find anything wrong with her and sent again and after all that, it was another system restore still didn't solve the problem.

    Now what should I do?

    Hello

    Maybe the Toshiba service agents could not fix it because they could not replicate that gel. The laptop freezes only occasionally and not always. Right?
    Well, that makes it harder and harder.

    Have you checked the HARD drive?
    Check if using a free tool called Drive Fitness Test. This can be downloaded from different pages.
    You can also check the RAM. Of course, I would recommend using new test modules.
    But what to say; This problem may be related to any part of the laptop; It could be a problem software or hardware;
    You said that the setting of the laptop back to factory settings helped for a short time; Well maybe, there is a process or a software that affect the functionality of the laptop

  • Satellite A660-07 s keeps freezing when streaming videos

    I bought a new laptop from Toshiba Satellite A660-07 s recently, since he started to freeze when I use video applications, such as Skype or Youtube, etc... Frost occurs randomly, and the only way out is long by pressing the switch (hunting). I returned the laptop several times for Toshiba certified technician and we almost completely reinstall software and operating system, replace the motherboard, graphics card, memory etc. and the problem is always the case. The laptop is great and does the job very well except for this random gel that is very annoying and there is no way to explain why it is happening.

    I think maybe there is a flaw in the design of the system and components do not work together very well. I also read on a few other issues with laptops satellite which freezes. I use another laptop, and I am a computer scientist. Never had this problem before and can not explain why this laptop freezes in particular. Can anyone shed light on what could be the problem to the technician and users may be able to solve this problem.
    As I said, we have tried all what you would do to eliminate the problem and nothing has worked so far.

    Thanks in advance for your responses and suggestions.

    Hey,.

    I m wondering really that your computer laptop doesn t work properly with video applications. Friend of me has the same laptop and it often use video applications like Skype, Youtube, etc. Also, he'd watch DVD and blu - ray but no problems at all.
    It uses the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba and everything is ok.

    In your case I would ask again authorized service provider what they can do for you. I mean if many parts have been replaced already there must be a solution to your problem and if it of a hardware related problem, you can do anything and you need professional help.

    Perhaps the ASP can get in touch with Toshiba directly or else just talk a bit with them, I m sure that the problem could be solved.

    Sorry that I can't say more, but the A660 from my friend is the perfect job.

  • Satellite 5100-201 - screen is flickering and distorted

    Hello!
    I am owner of a period of 5 years old Sam. 5100-201 which worked great until today.
    Now, I have problems with the graphics card I guess, the screen is flickering and distorted and then I mosztly get a blue screen that says that the graph
    card drivers is running in a loop.

    I have a dual boot, so I checked it on the two win xp installations and it is the same problem on both, so it seems to be a prob. real hardware!
    So I think that I have a graphics card problem, but as far as I know, the chip is attached to the motherboard and it is not replaceable, is that at the time?
    There is no work around which I can do to make sure what is the problem?

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    See you soon,.

    Why connection to the external monitor? !!

    > blue screen indicating that the graphic card drivers is running in a loop.
    The reason for this blue screen can be a problem of graphics card DRIVER or the graphics card itself.
    For me, it looks like a graphics card problem. Maybe overheating

    > as far as I know, the chip is attached to the motherboard and is not replaceable
    Yes, to you on time. In my knowledge on older models, the graphics card is fixed on MB and the entire motherboard must be replaced

    Hello

    What exactly do you mean?
    You can see something on the internal or is completely black screen?

    You should try an external monitor on the laptop. So you can determine if the problem is the screen-based internal or graphics card.

    In addition if your laptop is still under warranty, you must contact an authorized assistance service provider. They can repair the laptop.

    So when I turn it back on, it asks me to start in safe mode, I say yes, but the same thing happens.

    Sometimes it starts and you can go in outlook and check a few emails and I think it works fine, then it stops and says not responding do not. Then I go to Explorer and the same thing happens.
    I have try the Task Manager, but it will not come to the top.

    So I have to stop again. It's very frustrating.
    I have installed Norton and nothing comes to say there's a virus problem.
    I have no error message, it stops just to work.

    Help, please!
