Satellite P500 keeps closing

Hello

My new Satellite P500 maintains close without apparent reason. Does not seem to matter what I am doing, play games on the net or just clean up the files, twice it almost closed but recovered itself and displays a message about the video card. Is someone else has a similar problem?
any ideas how to fix it would be most appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello

8 months, I have Satellite P500. He is always pre-installed with OS, I received from Toshiba (Win 7 64 bit) and the laptop runs very God. Preinstalled OS runs stabile and so far I didn't notice any serious problems. Several times I had the same problem with display driver recovery, but I don't see it as a critical issue

What operating system do you use? It's the original OS, you got with your laptop?

  • Satellite P750 keeps closing

    Hi guys, I am a newcomer.

    My friend, but I have a Toshiba Satellite P750 (PSAY3A - 05S 001) and had trouble with her then she asked me if I could fix it and I accepted his favor.

    According to her, the laptop cannot boot on the windows that display an error to the screen, and she added that the keyboard does not seem to work that gives me and it's just a hard drive error or should reformat.

    I applied the solution to his problem, but it seems that it's not simple, because after formatting the laptop keeps closing and start on its own. I asked him about the closure, and she has no idea why so much. She added that the laptop can be tempered.

    I tried to open up the laptop, but unfortunately I was scared and screwed back together.

    Hello

    Unfortunately there is no specific information on this laptop, and that's what we have here is nothing more than speculation.
    If the laptop was soaked that there are probably maonboard the troublemaker and should probably be replaced.

    Error, the screen keyboard is not working, laptop guard stop and start on its own... all of this indicates that this model of laptop has a serious hardware problem and I sure it's m motherboard.
    Please don't get me wrong, but your opportunities to do something about it are very limited and I think this laptop should be controlled by technicians. They have special diagnostic tools and they can check if there is a problem with the motherboard.

  • Satellite P200 keeps closing

    Hi guys,.

    I'm after a little help because it's really annoying now.
    It is the first Toshiba laptop I've owned and hearing they are reliable.
    My first problem was a missing pixel but these things happen, and who was traded the next day.

    My question now, that happened with the last of them is too it stops after a few hours of being on.
    For example I was sitting there last night on Ebay when all of a sudden, he just died. I push the button to restart and it comes up saying to start it in safe MODE. Then I hit enter and the small time bar gets down to view the progress and bam, it will again.
    No matter how many times I try it won't turn on.

    The first time it happened I spoke with the company that I bought at which instructed him to try in BIOS and once it stops. I was told I could take back and Exchange, and while I was there a technician had a look. After about 10 minutes, he traded the laptop. But now this other does exactly the same thing.

    So this could be the processor, not too hot?
    I do try and give the best ventelation with sides and about 70% of the background clear. But I've never had that with any other laptop.

    Also, probably not connected, but the screen saver does not always work. Infact I've only seen him work twice on 2 of the 3 machines in time, I got them.
    It flashes, then flashes to black and that's where he stay.

    Thoughts or ideas to put my mind at rest?

    Thank you

    I'll try to explain your problem.
    It is a laptop upscale. It was equipped with a high-performance CPU and graphics card.
    While the laptop is running with high performance, parts such as GPU and CPU produce a lot of heat.
    This leads to a temperature higher inside the laptop.

    I have a question;
    Which driver of video card you are using?
    You should always use the Toshiba designed graphics drivers because these drivers support and protection against overheating. This protection stops the laptop if the temperature reaches a critical level.

    If the temperature of the GPU would rise to a higher level, then the graphics card driver would decrease performance GPU to make sure that the chip would not overheat. This protection is necessary because the graphics of mobile phones are not equipped with the huge cooling modules like graphics cards for desktop PC.

    Non-Toshiba driver graphics don t support this protection and this could lead to a higher temperature and overheating and finally, it could damage the GPU!

    This is why you should always use the Toshiba GPU drivers!

  • Re: Satellite L350 keeps closing

    Whenever I use my laptop L350, it stops without warning - usually after use about 10-15 minutes

    If anyone has an idea how to do to stop what is happening, your help would be greatly appreciated!

    Try to clean the laptop using jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans. If this does not help, maybe you need to replace a thermal grease.

  • Satellite P500 turns off most since re install Windows7

    Hi all

    Toshiba satellite laptop
    series: P
    Model: P500
    Model number: PSPGSE
    Operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium edition

    Following a final crash of the original hard disk, so I changed the drive and performed a complete re-installation of windows7 (an original touch and put my original).
    Subsequently I have re installed the driver via the toshiba site (most importantly, so no software supplied automatically with PC purchase), and that all are present according to device (of interrogation or other point of warning) Manager.
    More through the touslesdriver.com site, I added their scanning software small told the pilot to missing day or not (so basic but all seems normal...)

    Windows of decanting finished and I started to update the drivers, windows out never normally, menu, start, stop, closing the session and after that bogus on "stoppage of work" until the "Blue Shield (about 10 minutes later, a solution or the button works / stop)."
    Single point, drivers arrive to their windows or windows installation to restart, but the problem always comes back.

    Then in normal mode, no messages or any other information that makes me say that there is a problem, but when close windows here is barattes in a vacuum no solution other than the button walk / stop (I also tried ms config: stop all, same effect).

    Now in safe mode gives the change!

    Beginning and end of windows that is no problem!

    Still in safe mode, the device section driver, then display devices, 'plug and play' shocks only information is that an exclamation mark on 'Security processor loader driver' is not visible outside the safe mode.

    No possibility of anything and much too much different information on the net which could help me solve this exclamation point and certainly my problem?

    Hello

    I own P500 too, but I use it with the new HARD drive but with the original recovery image (Win7 64 bit) I've had with her. Why have problems such as you, when I can have perfectly installed OS. That do after the installation of recovery image's own upward and the optimization of the OS. I have delete all things I don't no need and turn off all unnecessary processes that can slow down my system.
    I m really wondering why you do the same and use OS without a few installation issues.

    In any case, after reading your ad I didn t understand what your problem is, but what I can say is follow:
    Satellite P500 is fully supported for Win7 so you do not have some third-party software of the part for the detection of drivers and similar useless diagnosis. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities, you can find and download from http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    On this virtual path, I can't tell what your problem and how to fix it. I know, it's that the whole available drivers on the Toshiba download page are tested and are part of the original image recovery.
    I think either you should reinstall the OS using original recovery image and remove all the stuff, you need or reinstall Win7 clean and begins to install the drivers, tols and utilities Toshiba download page only.

    Order of installation:
    Windows 7
    Chipset SW installation utility
    Intel Management Engine Interface
    Display driver
    Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver
    TOSHIBA supervisor password utility
    TOSHIBA HW utility
    TOSHIBA Value Added Package
    O2 card reader controller
    Audio driver
    Wireless LAN driver
    Synaptics Touch Pad Driver

  • Satellite P500-1DZ starts only with remote control

    Hi, I just bought a new laptop Satellite P500 after owning a P200-13Z and P300-160 years without ever having had a problem with one of them.

    I have a problem with the P500-1DZ that I bought because it does not start the power button when he was arrested for a period of time, as for example the night.

    If I stopped and immediately press the power button its fine and it starts as well with the remote control.

    In the BIOS, I noticed that there is an option for remote start to the top of the control that is enabled, but Im a little worried about this deactivation in case I can't restart the laptop... everyone has ideas?

    Also for other users of the P500 who are dissatisfied witht the audio output of the laptop, I fixed that uninstall the Audio drivers Connexant HD, then by restarting which allows Windows to install its own audio drivers... which has greatly improved the audio output of the laptop... even if its not as good as the old P300.

    Thank you

    Hi spidercpfc,

    This question really strange s with this start of the issue and I think that it of difficult to say why it happens exactly, but as written Akuma you should try upgrading the BIOS. You can download it from the official page of Toshiba:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com

    Last week I updated the BIOS of my P500 also and it worked, I t has not had any problems. I updated the BIOS to the version preinstalled Windows as an administrator. Also, I closed all programs running (AntiVirus, Firewall, browser, etc.) and disconnected from the network. After a few seconds the update was done.

    After the update, you should also load default settings in the BIOS. So press F9 in BIOS setup and save these settings.

    I hope this works. :)

  • My Satellite P30 keeps overheating...

    Hello

    My Satellite P30 keeps overheating and stop playing computer games. I had this problem 4 months ago and sent my computer to Toshiba. They sent to me with a new fan but now 4 months later the same problem comes back again.

    I doubt that the fan is broken again because I changed it about 4 months ago. I read somewhere on the internet that the problem might be rather an accumulation of dust on the heatsink. I heard that there is a problem with many Toshiba models, which will suck the air from below without filter.

    If it's my problem, how can I clean my radiator?

    Thank you
    Hugo B

    Hello Hugo

    The problem is not just dust. A friend of mine has a similar problem and at the end I saw that he uses his cell phone on the table with the tablecloth. The of cold air over the lower part was closed and unit was suddenly switched off.

    Be also careful that your device can catch its breath and you can do a test, put on something to do with the distance between the laptop and the desktop (four books or something similar). Please try this and let me know if the problem persists.

    Good bye

  • Satellite P500-01R volume fluctuations

    Hello

    I bought the laptop Satellite P500-01R in Aou09. Portable volume on speakers keep in fluctuating (sound quality is good, but volume goes up and down constantly). I tried music on hard drive, CD/DVD and online with the same results. I use Windows Vists 64-bit. When I listen to the same sound on the headphones, it's perfect. All the world is facing this problem and found the solution? Toshiba technical support has no ready solution for this.

    Hello

    The P500 seems to be a new series on the market I didn't find even the drivers on the Toshiba page for this series
    Maybe you need an audio driver update or maybe that it s just a matter of adjustments as suggested by Akuma
    If you have a Realtek audio chip, then you could try a driver Realtek page directly.

    But playing with the sound settings that you might find in Control Panel.

    Hello

    This laptop supports Phoenix BIOS.
    You use a google for Phoenix beep codes for details on the meaning of the code.

    But in General; the code means that an error has been detected on the motherboard. The POST (power on self-test) cannot be passed.
    Theoretically, it may be a RAM issue, but it's just a suggestion.

  • Installation of Windows 7 64 bit on a Satellite P500

    I bought the above system in August last year with 32-bit Windows 7 installed. I understand that it is not possible to upgrade and to a complete new installation. Is it necessary to format the hard drive first? Have backed up all my data (there was not a lot), but wonder if there is something else I need to know before you continue. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hello

    I m a bit confused because I have too many Satellite P500 and, as far as I know, this laptop model comes with 64-bit only.
    Can you please tell us what P500 you exactly (P500-xxx)?

    You are right; before installation Win7 HDD needs to be formatted. If you have installed the OS in the past, I guess you know how it works.
    Associated with Toshiba here are two things you should know before starting with the installation of Win7 64 bit:
    # Create recovery with the original Toshiba image DVDs. This disk, you can use if you want to have the factory settings once again.
    # Drivers, tools and utilities must be installed in the proper installation order. If you ned some hep with it let us know.

  • Satellite P500-190 stuck in a loop

    Well, I try to summarize what has happened so far.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P500-190 has started acting as each task is too big for him, constantly showing disk hard loading, programs did not respond for a while... then I ran the reconverty tool, reset the c drive, the problem still there.

    I ran all the error detection of characteristics of pc, no hardware problems or software detected. So I installed malwarebytes anti-malware and ran a scan, it finds errors, but before I could act, the program froze again no response. Press ctrl alt del, black screen, no response... reboot. Now my dosent pc even trying to start windows, only error detection program and each restart goes like this, even after going through the program as it is said.
    I tried to get to the other menus of repair, but it says I must be logged in to do this.

    Any ideas how to continue?

    Hi bug

    Please reinstall the recovery image and boot OS without having to install additional stuff.
    Do not connect to the internet and check the functionality. Open some pre-installed apps and see if they will not work correctly.

    Play around with these factory settings and let us know if there is a problem.

  • Satellite P500 - noise varies and is too quiet

    Hello again,

    I had some problems with speakers this time.
    Since there are Harmon/Kardon speakers installed in the computer, the sound itself is fine.
    However, it is not.

    Sound is too quiet, even if I listen to music on the max volume.
    As well, I noticed the sound fluctuates all the time and there are crackling noises.
    All audio drivers are up to date, but they did not help.

    Could you please tell, what's the problem? Thank you!

    Perhaps what is its volume in the drive that you use low upgraded? Select this check box.

    Friend of mine has bought Satellite P500 last month. We have installed OS, created recovery discs and tested sound using Skype, Winamp, Windows Media Player and watch blu - ray discs.
    With the sound, everything seems to be OK.

    Unfortunately, there are no drivers for Windows XP 64-bit on the Toshiba driver page.
    As a solution, you should go to the provider's site to download or use programs like the genius of pilots to collect.
    Note that some drivers did not at all exist.

    Hey mate,

    What additional software you have installed?
    Have you updated to the drivers and what OS you have installed?

    In this case, it's really hard to say what is the cause, so you should test with factory settings and see what happens.
