Satellite M100 stops automatically after about 10 min

Hey there guys :)

My Toshiba laptop has been powered off abrubptly and lit, it's own lately.

When I turn on my computer laptop, everything appears fine, if fully charged battery, AC adapter / CC plugged in etc. However, after about 10 minutes of use, it will be just turn off and make some noise "zoip" or similar. Turn the laptop back on right after work, but I find it only remains on for 4 minutes before doing the same thing. Turn again reduces the time it stays on, sometimes not even go beyond the boot sequence.

However, if I leave it alone for a few hours and come back, he's going to stay for about 10 minutes again, before going through the same process.

I have a warranty, but I am hesitant to take my laptop because I don't want to lose my files.

So I hope that someone here has a solution for my problem :)

Thank you
Osman

Hello

Sorry to say, but I think it s a hardware problem. This portable strange behavior seems to be a simple overheating!
The laptop supports thermal protection to prevent the equipment from damage.
If the temperature rises to a higher level, that the laptop stops automatically. It is a fact and nothing unusual in this case.

Especially the fan cleaning helps but sometimes the laptop must be open for a professional cleaning. But beware: I n t recommend opening or removing the case! You lose the warranty!
Maybe an aspiration would make it.

Anyway, you said that you will not lose the data on your HARD drive. Well, I wonder why you n t create a backup of data, you can also remove the HARD drive and connect it via external USB controller on the second PC and can save the files to the other HARD drive.
After this procedure, you must put the HARD drive in the laptop and try to reinstall the operating system.
If this does not help, I would recommend taking the guarantee.

    Hello

    Sounds like overheating
    Have you noticed a higher temperature?
    High temperature may affect the pieces of equipment like the CPU, RAM, GPU

    What do you think of this?

    The A60 is a little old, and I think that there could be dust inside checking the fans If you can remove the dust using a jet of compressed air.
    This should help to decrease the temperature.

    Problem is laptop overheating. Of course, mobile reaches critical temperature of material and stops automatically.

    When you play games using laptop on the desk and make sure that the cooling fan and cooling rack are not blocked.
    Check also power avancΘs > cooling method. Set the method to the maximum level of cooling.

    Turn the unit on and press F8

  • Satellite A200 stops automatically

    My Satellite A200 is less than 10 months old, but he started just suddenly stop without warning.
    When I try to turn it on again it often does not reach the screen of Vista before turning off again.
    Interestingly, when I remove the charger cable, it seems to be able to start and to survive at least for a longer duration.

    Any ideas please?

    Hello

    I think that the laptop automatically stops due to a higher internal temperature.
    The point is that these books supports protection against overheating and if the temperature increases to a critical level, the laptop stops automatically to prevent material damage.

    In most cases air can circulate properly due to clogged cooling grids and therefore the temperature rises to a higher level.
    In my opinion the cooling fans should be cleaned.

    Compressed air jet is a professional tool that could help you get rid of the dust and debris.

    Hello

    The laptop goes to home Toshiba screen?
    If yes there is no hardware malfunction but perhaps something wrong with the software.

    You suggested that it of not possible to enter the BIOS. How have you tried to get into the BIOS?
    As far as I know, this unit uses a Phoenix BIOS so you must press the F2 key immediately after switching on. Press the "F2" key several times to make sure that the option has been enabled.

    The alternative to boot from the CD/DVD drive is using the C key. The same procedure here: press the C key immediately after starting the laptop.
    (the CD must be inserted before you start)

  • T400s camera stopped working after about 2 weeks

    Got a new T400s, well worked out of the box.

    After about 2 weeks, do not use the camera (of course, I checked, it works when I install everything first) the camera no longer works.

    He appears in the Manager of devices, but Skype and other software just to see a black image. The LED on the side, which according to me, shines green when the unit is supposed to be consulted running is no longer.

    Installation of the driver and going back in time (recovery point) makes no difference.

    I really want to reformat the drive, there are a ton of my files on it...

    ideas?

    Ok

    I contacted local support and they wanted me to come and check the camera themselves.

    In preparation, I removed the extra 1 GB of memory (3 GB total) I had installed and tried again just before departing for their labs.

    Guess what, that fixed it for me!

    It seems that this model has serious problems with asymmetric memory facilities. I installed a 2 GB module and some of the other problems plaguing this unit had disappeared too (VT - D causing disruption of the screen and also occasional freezes).

  • Satellite A110 restarts automatically after each stop

    Hello!

    I have the following problem:
    When to stop the system, my laptop while first goes off completely, as you wish, but 2 seconds later, he again. His behavior differs from a usual restart - then will not turn off, it restarts directly. In addition I can rule out software problems, since I've tested with different operating systems and the behavior is the same everywhere. This problem did not exist before, but suddenly occurred and now is it each time.
    Ah, it is also important if the power adapter is NOT connected (i.e. portable runs only on battery), the problem does not occur. If the laptop works on current alternative, the problem occurs, regardless of whether or not the battery is in Notepad.

    Can anyone help? Each index is very appreciated!

    Hi zaez,

    I doubt that the problem is caused by the OS because it doesn t affect the system when it turn off so there must be another reason of this problem...

    Have you attached external devices?
    They could cause such an automatic start

    I also is advised to disable Wake up on LAN functionality in the BIOS and load the default settings.
