Satellite P300 freezing after more than 20 minutes

Hello

I hope someone can help.
My satellite P300 laptop freezes when left for more than 20 minutes.
This has been a problem since the purchase of the laptop 8 months ago.

I have windows vista installed.

When this happens I've pressed the button until the computer restarts, it gives me the option to start in safe mode.
This can't be good for the laptop?
Is there a way to solve this problem, as I turn the laptop off when ever I leave.

See you soon

Hello

It's not easy to say what is the reason for this as it can be different things

Maybe your laptop is overheating. You can hear the fan or get very hot? Maybe you should try to clean using compressed air stream. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.

You said that you have installed Windows Vista on your laptop. Do you mean the factory settings or you have installed your own version of Windows?

It could also be the RAM problem. You can check this with Memtest86. It is a diagnostic program for the RAM. You can download it from [www.memtest86.com]. It s freeware and easy to use (just to burn a bootable CD with the image and the start of it).

Good luck and post your results after that.

  • Activation of Thunderbird requires more than TWO minutes after clicking on icon Thunderbird.

    PROBLEM: The Thunderbird program is slow to activate. When you click the Thunderbird icon, I expect Thunderbird Inbox screen to appear in a few seconds. However, after clicking on the Thunderbird icon, more than TWO minutes elapse before the Thunderbird screen appears. This problem existed for about a week. My OS is Ms 8.1. You can provide any help would be appreciated. Also, when this problem started, I received the following message "warning: this file is being processed.» Please wait until processing is complete, to pass messages. »

    Your anti virus (or attempt to Microsofts Defender grant) needs to be said is not to analyze the profile of Thunderbird folders, each time you open the program is my guess. The program cannot open files that are locked for scanning. As some of the files may be in the order of 4Gbv in size, it can take an AV program up to 10 minutes.

  • After updating to the latest version of Itunes, it works really slow, takes more than a minute to recognize my Iphone and will not correctly backup my Iphone

    IPhone 6 64 IOS 9.3.1 runs the latest version of ITunes 12.3.3.17

    After I updated to the latest version of ITunes, when I run the synchronization, it goes through the six steps, and then returns the message that the backup has failed

    Running on a 64-bit Windows 8.1 Dell computer.

    ITunes now works much more slowly. Takes a long time to load. It takes more than a minute after I plug in my Iphone for the IPhone to be recognized by Itunes.

    I rebooted the machine. Remove the locked file. All have failed to solve the problem

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review other cases and a list of documents to support further down the page, in which case one of them applies.

    More information area has direct links with the current and recent if you have problems to download, need to revert to a previous version or try the version iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for the problems of performance or compatibility with third-party software.

    Your library must be affected by these measures, but it is also related to backup and recovery advice if necessary.

    If you have tried the suggestions above without success, then another option is to go back to the previous version of iTunes that has worked for you. See the roll back tips to installers of iTunes. Roll back of 12.3.3 will be to restore the pre-upgrade library in the previous iTunes libraries folder.

  • Can't scan at all & printer freezes my laptop is turned on more than 3 minutes?

    Can't get my Laserjet M1212nf MFP to scan anything at all, it freezes as my laptop, if it's on more than 3 minutes.  I connected via the USB cable to my laptop Dell under Windows XP SP2.  I tried to run the diagnostic tool, but it freezes and then gives me the same error message as the printer when I try to scan something.  The error message "sorry, but scan software needs to close." I also deleted the drivers and reinstalled times since the original CD & download from HP.com whenever it froze just my laptop once the drivers have been installed. I don't know what else to try?

    I know that it isn't a hardware problem, because the copy of the printer function works very well!  The scan bar is fail & before he come to scan and then send the data from my laptop.  So my guess is it's a software problem, but I'm not an expert?

    It has been so for about 6 mos now and I'm just trying to not use it much, but it's starting to annoy me that I spent so much on something that I can't use!  Can someone please help me with this?  Thank you!!!

    Wtdboss, sorry for not responding sooner, I was out of the country on a trip to visit his family in France.

    Looks like we can fix pretty easily. To be able to scan from your computer directly on your computer you need to activate the scan function in the software for your printer on your computer. This should be under Scanner or scanner Actions. This will give you your printer permission to access your hard disk computers and record the material there.

    I hope this solves this problem for you!

    I don't know how I got two programs, (Director) (direct Director) on my pc a vista? but nonetheless (movie maker) is the program that I use. but now that I said... Can I publish and audio/video content more than a minute or two of time!  can someone help me? Thank you..

    ============================================
    Vista Movie Maker 6 came with your Vista operating system
    and IMHO the best of both programs. Windows Live
    Movie Maker was included when you downloaded and installed
    Windows Live Essentials.

    The publication (economy) questions are probably caused by
    files corrupted or incompatible source (photos, video clips,
    audio clips).

    Several formats are apparently compatible with Movie Maker but
    the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    But... first... If you are running Movie Maker 6... try to go to... Tools /.
    Options / Compatibility tab and uncheck the box 'all' filters / OK now...

  • opening of session takes more than one minute (win vista)

    Hi, I have vista premium 32 bit version with 4 GB of ram and 2 x cpu 2.00 GHz each I have no problem with the hardware and all drivers are up to date and my whole system I revised myself, but I can't work out just why he is more than a minute at the start screen of vista with the scrolling green bar? Now I don't know what im doing with my system, but im either missing something or there is a more serious problem. I just found a solution that gets rid of the problem but he always comes back.  the solution that I found was if I reset my read-ahead using a piece of software called tweakVI my computer starts perfect as it was just installed fresh lol. BUT after I rebooted to new that dates back to more than a minute to boot.


    I used boot procmon log too, and I got 1 thing that takes a lot of time at startup, close to 80 seconds. Svchost.exe notifychangedirectory path: c:\windows\tasks and the result is success there is 4 wires still taking 80secs and a little more ideas what can I do with this?

    I also tried other things like (clean boot) disable all non-microsoft services and which does not address the cause, as well as audit service task scheduler to see if he was on a departure delayed but it is set to automatic.

    I doubt that it was a Windows Update.  Simply charge things.

    Frankly - until the boot time go beyond 3 minutes on a modern machine, I think very little of him.  At initialization time means very little compared to how it runs once it is up.

    I systems I demarrer start from SSD, installs own, etc.  With the things that start (antivirus, antimalware, various services for wireless and wired networks, firewall, etc.) sometimes it can take more than a minute--sometimes two.  Generally not - your stay below / 1 minute.

    What is your exact (of cold/off voltage) (three trials minimum) start?

    What a warm reboot (choose to reboot and when the powers of the screen wide going / empty to start loading, start time)?

    Use "AutoRuns" to see what everything starts up.

    "Process Explorer" allows you to really dig into what is currently running.
