Satellite L50 - A - 1 7 hangs for a while - HDD Displays the use of 50%

Using my laptop for a while, my laptop freezes and when the Task Manager is open my HARD drive is on the use of 50% but nothing is using it.

After a while my laptop works very well
https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c7g85btwvbse19/foto%2019-10-14%2014%2024%2028.jpg?DL=0

I think it would be possible that some of the processes that are running in the background can lock the HARD drive and so the system would be unavailable for a while.

Since when did you notice this gel?
Maybe after some 3rd party software installation, updates, etc.. ?

I think it will be easy to tell what's wrong here without particular control
I think that you should pay attention to the software that runs while the laptop freezes.

But let's not forget that a possible HARD drive failure could be the reason why the system hangs.

  • My Satellite L50 - A - 16 Q turns off suddenly while on battery

    Hello guys and girls,

    I have a problem for some time that I don't really know how to solve.
    In November 2013, I bought in Poland, where I live, a nice TOSHIBA SATELLITE L50 - A Q - 16 (PSKJNE).
    On this computer, even if something is constantly causing me problems: * very often the power stops so that all of a sudden on battery *, even if the 'TOSHIBA PC health monitor' app that monitors the temperature of the processor, also shows no sign of criticality.

    However, there is something going wrong: thanks to this software, I noticed that whenever I unplug the charger, the fan speed is zero, apparently put the endangered cooling system. And I know in the manual that if the temperature of the processor reached a critical threshold, the system stops automatically.

    Anyway is to solve the problem to not stop suddenly, making me lose data then on the battery?
    Maybe turn on the speed of the fan, somehow, so that this mode?

    Thanks to everyone for your contribution, in advance.

    Kind regards

    Matteo

    If you unplug the AC adapter, the system will pass the plant (it depends on the configuration of power plan). Check the Windows power plan settings to see what configuration will be used in battery mode.

    This power plan can be configured and all the settings are located in the advanced power settings.
    I recommend you to check the mode of cooling and if necessary to use the same settings that are used in the power management when the laptop is connected to the power supply.

  • Satellite L50 - B - 2 8 - new SSD is not recognized in the BIOS settings

    Hello

    I just bought a new laptop Toshiba Satellite L50 - B - 2-8 and I also bought Samsung SSD 850 evo 250 GB.
    When I try to install the SSD drive rather my drive HARD, the BIOS show 'none' in the category of SSD/HDD (BIOS not recognize the SSD).

    Please help me.
    My bios version is: 2.00
    someone told me that I have to downgrade my version of BIOS to 1.2V and then the BIOS recognize the SSD drive, so perhaps someone here can send me a download link for version 1.2 of my model L50 - B - 2-8.
    Thank you

    someone told me that I have to downgrade my version of BIOS to 1.2V

    And who? I mean you are sure that this person was right?
    From my point of view of the few there is no reason why beginning version BIOS should recognize the SSD and the latest version of the BIOS is not...

    But BIOS v1.2 for series Satellite L50 - B - 2 8 PSKTQE there is no v2.0 (at this time) is the latest version and previous versions of BIOS are not available for this series.

    Also, I guess you must slimply check different SSD drive... it might be possible that the other SSD drive would be recognized correctly.

    By the way: I am owner of Evo 850 SSD drive and as I remember, I had to update the firmware of the SSD drive to use it correctly in my other laptop (not the Toshiba device)

  • How to set the font for this SuperNova will display the text properly

    I have a problem with the use of Firefox with Supernova. Supernova is a program for the Visual disabled allowing you to enlarge the office. When you visit the page

    http://www.raadvanstate.nl/Uitspraken/zoeken-in-Uitspraken/Tekst-uitspraak.html?ID=73735 & summary_only =

    you will see orange colored text in the main text block. It appears correctly. However when I enlarge the screen with Supernova this orange text is barely readable due to the fact that the letters seems constructed points instead of a smooth line.

    Note that this happens even with this page where I enter these details of the issues. Supernove enlarged rhe screen, texts outside of the text box are horrible while the text in this text box is good.

    I ask this question here because when I use Internet explore this problem does not occur.

    I tried to make a screenshot, but the screenshot feature only "sees" the screen is enlarged. So when I zoom to 100% with Supernova, the text in the screenshot seems to agree.

    I realize that this is a difficult question to reproduce, but any help is welcome. Note that it is not a real option for me to enlarge the font with the Firefox options. Supernova expands the full screen, not only the text on the Web page. In this way, I am also able to see the menu / bookmarks of Firefox itself.

    Thank you very much
    Hans

    You can use an extension to set a page zoom and the size of the default font on the web pages.

    Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Windows Explorer hangs for a long time after the installation of the latest updates from Microsoft

    Hello!

    Yesterday, I downloaded and installed the latest Windows updates on the Web from Microsoft by using Windows Update.

    After that, I see a strange thing from time to time.

    Sometimes when I open Windows Explorer or on a list of logical drives reader app, the hangs of the application for 10-15 minutes (not answer).

    While it hangs, other applications can function normally if they don't read the list of drives, for example, I can use Internet Explorer at the same time.

    The appearance of the problem is unpredictable, it can happen after 10 to 20 minutes of work after the reboot, or even after 1-2 hours of labor.

    My OS is Vista Home Premium x 64, laptop Pavilion dv7 - 1157 cl.

    At the moment I don't have any antivirus software or third party drivers (I configured factory drivers only).

    Event log Windows contains no error messages, all devices are displayed in device in the form of work normally without errors management.

    I ran the test of memory with the memory diagnostic tool, it found no errors.

    Here is the list of the installed Windows updates.

    Do you have any suggestions? There may be a problem already known with some updates?

    Message edited by Gleb on 14/05/2009 08:38

    I'm surprised, there is no answer at all.

    Well, the problem has been successfully resolved by installing Vista SP2 RTM. My test program has been run 20 hours and showed no delay.

  • BPEL process hangs for hours and hours after the service call web sync

    I would like the web service call time out if it crashes it

    or a process that calls a Local or a remote WebService, it is necessary to set a time limit of 10 seconds that the BPEL will wait for the response. If no response is received within the time-out period specified, then a series of activities is performed (for example. WebService not available, end of the BPEL process, etc.).

    At the top of screen, "WS_Call" is the call to the WebService.

    2. in the sequence where to call 'WS_Call' activity, add a branch of wrestling:

    and set its properties to catch a RemoteFault.
    It is necessary to take a RemoteFault because this is the type of fault that throws the "timeout" which will be defined in the next step when the time-out expires.

    3. switch to the Source Jdeveloper tab and look at the code that has been added to the Bpel project as instructed by top 'Step 2 '. The added lines should look like the piece of code below:






    In the branch of wrestling, the error can be treated: complete the process, insert a response/answer to return from the Bpel, an Assign activity and continue the Bpel, etc..

    4 set the "timeout" for the PartnerLink to 10 seconds.
    "Timeout" specifies the number of seconds to wait before expiry. A distance error is thrown if this happens.

    If the Web service is located on the SAME host as the BPEL, it is also necessary to set the property "optSoapShortcut" to FALSE.
    The parameter "optSoapShortcut" is by default = TRUE. It should be set to FALSE to force local SOAP to go through SOAP instead of internal calls request.

    Note: Step 4 can also be directly configured in bpel.xml in the partnerLinkBinding section:

    5
    fake

    5. recompile and redeploy the BPEL process.

    References:

    (a) the Timeout parameter is documented in:

    Hello world

    I have a very annoying problem: when I use audio-cd, my Satellite tends to crash with a blue screen. When it crashes, blue screen, scrolls and immediately a black screen and a restart follows.

    It is probably a driver problem, because I have three audioprograms installed (Windows Media player, Sonic Stage MiniDisc and I-tunes).

    Can someone give me advice? Thanks in advance

    Klaas

    Hi Klaas,

    It would be useful to know what the error message is when you get the blue screen. I suggest that you disable the restart automatic installation so that your laptop stops on the blue screen and you can read the error.

    To disable the auto restart: -.

    1. right click on 'My computer' icon and then click on "Properties".
    2. click on the "Advanced" tab
    3. click on 'Settings' in the section starting and recovering (towards the bottom of the window).
    4 uncheck 'automatically restart '.

    Please post again all the details of the blue screen error message.
