Satellite P10 stop suddenly

I have problem of sudden closure with my Satellite P10... and no new BIOS update available.
Is there anyone who can help me?

Hello

How old is your laptop and when it close? Perhaps during some heavy applications?

There are several times my laptop didn't stop because the temperature was too high.
Someone here in the forum suggested to clean the fans and the cooling with the vacuum module. I did it because my laptop is a little older. Because of the dust and debris, the fans didn't work properly and the temperature is increased to the critical level.

The operating system shut down the laptop to prevent damage.
I think you should check for this possibility.

Also the damaged software could be a reason to turn off automatically down. Especially the new installation of the operating system can help solve these problems.

  • Satellite P10 stopped mode standby automatically

    My satellite P10 suddenly stopped go into sleep mode automatically; I can do it manually and put it in hibernation. I tried to perform a restore of the system several times, but he refuses to do. Suggestions (singles) for a novice in computer science?

    I would recommend Hmm firstly check the parameters Toshiba energy saver.
    The energy saver supports two different States: power sector and battery.
    If you want to set the laptop on standby while the AC adapter is plugged into the laptop, you must change the settings of the power cable.

    There you have to click on the details and choose the Mode of standby power tab
    Now you should find different controls. The standby control system should t be defined to never, but at another level.

  • Guard Satellite Pro stopping suddenly.

    My laptop is suddenly stop - and do not restart.
    "It happens esp if I try to do a scan Mcafee - when it comes down to a ' 1386 file" on the C: drive it stops! (but it also stopped at another time).
    I've defragmented it and cleaned up the cookies etc. It is about 50% left on hard drive and even if 4 years old and a little slow sound otherwise was a good laptop Satellite Pro.

    Any ideas? Ah its driving me crazy!

    Stopping suddenly may also be due to overheating. Usually when he runs some CPU or graphics intensive application, the material can get the critical temperature level and simply turns off.

    I'm sure that after some time you can start your laptop. He is old enough laptop model and it's time for cleaning. I really can't say if this has something to do with the preinstalled stuff.

  • Satellite P10 turn suddenly

    Hello

    I have the satellite P10
    Im having problems.
    I reformatted about a month ago, and since then, his performance is even more strange. One morning, I turned on and then as windows was loading, all images on the screen pixeld and started jumping up and down the screen... almost like matrix effect. Windows loaded, but my office etc. still had this majorly pixeld watched and kept jumping.

    I managed to restart the pc in safe mode - and he has not had the same problem since then, however, it shuts down completely I work almost everyday now - or the second day.

    I reformatted... installed lastest drivers, constantly updated to windows and have updated graphics cards etc.
    He continues to cut all of a sudden - and feels as if it detects overheating a bit as well.

    SOS. What should I do?

    Hello

    Maybe the display problem had occurred because of the corrupted display driver.
    However another question looks like overheating.
    You can try to use the vacuum cleaner to clean the cooling modules.
    It is a simpler procedure to clarify the fans.

  • Satellite M70 stops suddenly: fan?

    Hey,.
    As of today, my Satellite M70 suddenly stops while I work.
    I checked the forum here, and I guess it is a heating problem.
    When I looked at the opening of the fan, I saw that the coating was broken...
    And the fan itself does not seem to work either...
    It must have been some kind of accident.
    The regular warranty covers these things?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    I think you are right and the machine is overheating.
    To get this repaired your only chance is a Toshiba service partner.

    Unfortunately, this kind of damage must be the result of some kind of hit on the laptop.
    And normally it is not covered by the warranty.

  • Satellite A110 stop suddenly - processor fan does not work

    Hello!

    The CPU on my brand-new A110 fan does not work. The laptop turns off suddenly, without hibernation or standby for any CPU consuming activity.

    Can it be linked to a configuration / software problem? If so, how to check?
    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a hardware malfunction. If the fan does not work as it should then it has nothing to do with the software.
    The A110 seems to be a very new unit and I n t think that the dust and debris are responsible of these automatically shut down.

    Why you n t take your warranty? If the warranty is valid must be checked and replaced for free

  • Satellite P10 - 832---> stops

    Hello
    Since a few weeks my Satellite P10 stops suddenly
    It comes up with
    (1) battery
    (2) AC adapter
    (3) battery + AC adapter
    Why?
    I downloaded a bios update but it's always the same
    I formated 3 times, without making all internet connections (someone told me it could be a virus from the internet), but she stops even if the OS is just formatted and empty (with an antivirus)
    I checked my CPU temperatures and I saw that he could stop down to 36 ° C or 39 °... or work the best at 43 ° C!
    (so I have eliminated a problem of temperature)
    But I saw that when the CPU USAGE exceeds the 50% the rest machine for a few seconds or minutes (if I'm lucky!)... .then shut downs, once again!
    The same problem is happening to one of my friends, with the same computer!
    I can't play video games or do a full with my because antivirus scan that the CPU USAGE is over 50%!
    Is this a hardware problem?
    Thank you

    (Sorry for my rude English!)

    Hello

    It is not easy to tell what the problem may be, but in my opinion there are too many processes that run in the background and the processor is at the limit. In this laptop case closed. It is the protection mechanism. Laptop to stop before the processor may be damaged.

    Also, I had similar problem the spirit of my laptop. After the installation of the antivirus, the laptop was so slow that it was impossible to use it properly. You can try to remove Norton and try again.

    Please inform me if there are a few changes. I am very interesting about this.

  • Satellite P10 554 stops after a few minutes and I can not restart

    Hello
    I hope someone can help me with my satellite P10 554
    When I start the laptop, everything is working fine a few minutes. the monitor turns black and the books suddenly stops. I can't restart, when I push the Start button, nothing happens.

    I have to wait about an hour and then I the starts again, but it works for a few minutes and stops again!

    Help me please, cause I need my phone to work!

    Hello

    From your description, I think your device overheat and go down because he cannot be cooled properly. P 10 satellite is older and it's time to clean up. You can't imagine how much dust inside the unit you will find.

    I put t know how are you familiar with this, but if you have no experience don t do it alone.

  • Satellite P10 - start/stop down do not work

    I hope someone can help me. My Satellite P10 problems start and stop.

    When it starts, it goes to a black screen with white wording, asking if I want to start windows normally or in SafeMode etc - he doesn't let me start normally, so I choose the option "last good start of files" (or similar wording).

    The pc then door on commissioning. I did a system restore, but it made no difference. Once it is started, it's a lottery if she going to be ok, or if he's going to crash.

    Stopping down, I have to press the off button, there is no other way it will stop.

    I ran avg, spybot, adaware lavasoft, xsoftspy, registry mechanic, spywareblaster etc but it doesn't seem to be something "wrong".

    The only thing I installed recently is the new avg 7.5 and legacy family tree software - I downloaded both programs on the sites of manufacturers. AVG is free, but I just could have visited a site of crack for the Legacy code :)

    I would really appreciate it if someone is nice to give me some advice :)

    You didn't describe what happens exactly when you want to turn off but I imagine some don t want to be off process and maybe somehow, blocks, unity. When you force the unit turns off after that put on it is nothing unusual that start menu occurs.

    In your problem, the only problem is the unit of decommissioning, correctly of course. I recommend you to check all running processes before you turn the power off and try to identify some of them. You can check what happens if you change some of them manually from the Task Manager.

  • Sudden loss of power if it works on battery on Satellite P10

    I have problems with the battery on my satellite P10. I can use the laptop very well when I'm on the current, but when I want to run on battery, it will last awhile (showing 100% decreasing slowly as usual) then will suddenly change to 5% and turn off due to the critical battery level.

    Can someone help me?

    I wouldn't have thought, it's just a case of having to replace the battery, because he suddenly disappeared like this, it has not got gradually worse over time.

    Thank you

    Hello

    How old is your battery and how many times have you loaded and unloaded battery?
    Usually after one year or 500times charge/discharge, the battery slowly loses performance
    In my opinion, it is simply a matter of battery and the battery must be replaced to solve this problem
    Just contact the ASP in your country and order the new and compatible battery!

  • Satellite P10 - laptop off suddenly during application

    My Satellite P10 has a problem for about 1 month. In many applications (for example games) he died suddenly, without message or similar warning.

    Is it possible, that it's getting hot?
    It worked without any problems for over a year half!

    Could it, that it is only some dirt in the ventilation? And then I clean it myself without any problems?

    If I had a PC I just opened and clean. But this is my first laptop and I don't have too much experience with the intereor of it.

    Hello

    I normally clean any dust from my A30 on a weekly basis, by blowing through the outlets on the back of the notebook, or using a vacuium domestic cleaner of the hose to the fan intake grills oin the bottom of the unit. This avoids having to remove the heatsink from the CPU that might invalidate your warranty.

    I also make sure that the notebook is never directly placed on the carpet or pillows or other soft surfaces because it either block the air inlets or provide a source ready of dust and debris that will be sucked into the unit.

    It is a setting in Device Manager to allow cooling for 'maximum performance' or 'Noise Minimum'. The effect of the first is to allow the CPU to run at maximum speed (which may involve fans to their maximum, while the latter will cause the CPU to slow down when it gets too hot, allowing fans to run much more slowly. I think that the post of 'Heaven', associated with a chip fauly on the motherboard that was the fans run continuously.

  • Satellite P20 S203 stops suddenly

    Hello

    In the last month my Satellite P20 S203 does so well, and unfortunately it seems that the problem is a hardware one (but I'm not sure, and that's why I'm writing here)

    The computer just stops suddenly (it happened 2 or 3 times in the last 30 days); every time it happened I was on the web on Firefox, but I'm sure that has nothing to do with it, and I'm also 99% sure that this is not a virus, malware or something like that, cause I formatted there are 3 months and nothing else behave in a strange way, the computer is slow or something like that.

    The last two options are that the question can be of a physical nature, or a software (as a conflict between the operating system and installed programs); I'm more to the first, but I do not know and I need assistance to find out... What should I do?

    In addition, when it stops suddenly, it won't turn with the first try.
    He needs like 10 or 20 times to open like an old car that won't start; the first, say, 5 times I try to turn it on, it appears only the toshiba logo.
    It then passes through a screen, I can not read because it goes too fast.

    Then a black screen, then it turns off again.
    With the next try that it goes a bit further, as it displays the windows logo, but as this image is fading, it stops halfway through the fading process, resulting in a darker windows logo, as it is too difficult for her to load the OS!

    But then it turns off again!

    Then after a few other attempts it finally loads windows.

    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

    Hello

    Maybe the laptop stops due to a higher internal temperature.
    High temperature leads to an overheating of the questions and the laptop would be stops down automatically to prevent the equipment from damage.
    The other point is that the high temperature may affect the RAM modules.
    In this case the laptop computer may freeze or you will receive a Blue Screen Of Death.

    I had a similar problem in the past. About 6 years ago my first oldie started to overheat.
    I cleaned the cooling modules, but the questions again.
    Finally, I contacted the laptop technician in downtown, and he said that the thermal grease that is placed between the cooling module and the CPU must be renewed.

    He did, and it helped!

  • Satellite L850 - webcam suddenly stopped working

    The web cam on my Satellite L850 has suddenly stopped working.

    It does not appear in Device Manager;
    I downloaded the latest driver on the Toshiba site;
    I checked the BIOS and the web cam is turned on;
    Always when I open the web cam application I get the following message:

    "webcam initialization failed Please restart request and camera control.

    I scoured the advice forum and short of a return to the top and reboot disk HARD, I find no reasonable answer. I can't back up as I am away from home is out of the question. I need web conference call cam / call my family to the United Kingdom back.

    Tired of going round in circles and getting nowhere.

    Any suggestions?

    Even if you have not changed the settings in the BIOS, you must Access the BIOS to make sure that the webcam is turned on it!

    I also recommend the suite of this workaround:
    Uninstall the webcam software
    Uninstall the VAP
    Uninstall all software needed the webcam (Skype, etc...)
    Now, restart and install CCLeaner (cleaning of freeware software)
    Reboot once more.
    Run CCleaner and clean the system and the registry.
    Reset
    Now follow with installation of VAP
    Reset
    Install the webcam software
    Reset
    Test webcam.

  • Satellite M40 - 244 sudden stop - cooling/temperature problem?

    Hello everyone!

    For about 1 week, my laptop M40-244 became unable to cool down! Then, of course, more often, it stops suddenly to avoid any damage. I am sure that this problem is triggered out of cooling, simply by touching the left side of the key board it is easy to feel the (high-temperature 8 -

    My QUESTION is: is it possible for me to avoid the repair?

    I'm in Shanghai, I can not expensive toll-free phone and surprisingly that I have not found in the Web from Toshiba site any way to contact a Toshiba support by e-mail (if someone knows a way, please tell me!)

    Because it's very curious: my laptop is '8-month-old', never this kind of problem to date, and Toshiba is well known for a good cooling system. Recently, my laptop did not shock. Would it be possible that the fan has suddenly stopped working well?

    I tried to "verify" my laptop, but the failed to install of Speedfan and Motherboard Monitor 5 seems unsuited to the M40 244 then he is totally unable to find any sensor Board! Now, I've seen in some forums and website the possibility of the "underclocking", or a way to 'reset' the BIOS fan, but, Wow!, I am not an expert! What it means? It is possible with a laptop computer, or it is only possible with a PC?

    Here go us! I can go to a store of Toshiba and I guarantee, but it is required to serve 1 week without my laptop so professionally, she is extremely boring for me!

    Sorry, I'm a little long and sorry for my English (I'm French!), but If someone KNOWS A WAY THAT ALLOWS ME TO SOLVE this COOLING PROBLEM BY MYSELF, please tell me!

    Thanks in advance,

    Fred

    Hi Fred

    Vacuuming, cleaning procedure is not bad and very easy, but be careful. But if it does not help you should contact Toshiba service partner.
    The fact is that your laptop is under warranty and if there is a serious problem with the cooling module and fans the service partner must check.

    If you click this link, you will find the list of the FSA from Toshiba:
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/Su/su_gaspLocator.jsp?PF=true

    In addition, you should check the settings in the energy saver because this Toshiba tool that controls the use of the CPU and cooling method.

    Good luck

  • Problem of Toshiba Satellite P10 laptop!

    Hello!

    I have a laptop TOSHIBA Satellite P10, Windows XP.

    This is a new computer, not second hand!
    The problem is that it stops when I connect it to the power adapter.

    The only way I can work is it charge when turned off and then use it on battery.

    The problem appeared after I bought it 20 days.
    I sent it to the service of TOSHIBA, they have updated the BIOS, it worked perfectly for 5 hours (connected to the power adapter), and then the same problem appeared.

    Do you have any suggestions?
    I'm looking forward to your answers!
