Satellite P750 blows a biting smell from the vents

My P750 blows a biting from the vents smell whenever the fan works. It has the date of purchase. I first thought that the smell will disappear after awhile, but now a month has passed and there is no change. Any ideas?

Thank you very much.

Please don t ask about ideas and don t waste your time here ask for explanations.
Something like this should not happen so please stop using your laptop and the closest contact Toshiba service provider, explain the situation and let it check your laptop.

Do you know how to find the Toshiba service provider?

    If still no, then try using ONE OPTION above to run the command sfc/scannow at the start

    If still no, then you could do a Refresh of Windows 8, or run a System Restore using a restore point dated before the wrong file occurred to fix. You may need to repeat doing a restore of the system until you find a restore point that is older that may work.

  • Re: Satellite C650D-12J refuses to boot from the recovery DVD

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C650D-12J which has recently been ravaged by a virus and now refuses to start. Whenever he tries to boot into Windows, it restarts and blue screens.

    I ordered the Toshiba recovery media as the most simple solution is to recover the laptop and restore the default settings.

    However, when I insert the recovery DVD and choose to boot from the CD/DVD get them all is a loading bar that turns to a black screen with the white cursor. It's her!

    Can anyone suggest a solution?

    You have the same problem if you try to reinstall Microsoft Windows or just Toshiba Recovery disk?

  • Satellite A100 - 784 buzzing noise coming from the display

    I hear a hum from the screen while I'm running my new Satellite A100-784. When the brightness of the display is set to the highest level the noise is higher. Any suggestions?
    Thank you

    Hello

    looks like a hardware failure. Maybe a faulty display ups or something similar. I suggest you:

    Bring your machine to an authorized local ASP. They must correct this mistake and replace defective parts of your laptop.
    Here´s a link to find a few ASP in your area:

  • Satellite L300 - how to transfer data from the old HARD drive?

    I have a toshiba Satellite 2410-504, which gave me the blue screen so I bought a L300 to replace.
    Different are documents and photos I would like to recover from the old tosh-

    Can I switch from hard drives overall if they are compatible or y at - it an advance to do and how... help!

    The only way I know, it's that you buy an external HARD drive enclosure where you can put in the old HDD. Connect the HARD drive old this is the case with the USB cable to your laptop new and then you can copy your documents and photos.

    These cases are not expensive and s for external HARD drive are very practical.

  • Satellite 5100 503: unable to boot from the CD drive

    Hey all,.

    I have a HUGE problem with my 5100-503 Satellite.

    Windows XP connects and then it disconnects right away.

    I found a fix for this at: [url] http://www.mcse.ms/message616432.html {/ url}

    The problem is that I can not boot from a cd, because the BIOS is configured to boot from the hard drive first.

    I get into the BIOS. I read on a few websites on the net than on machines 5xxx Satellite, you can only enter the bios through windows! ..., BUT windows does not work so I can't enter the bios. I can't even use the Windows installation CD when I boot, because once again the HD is set to boot first.

    When I press ESC while turning on the laptop and then press F1, I have the option load default BIOS values. I did, but the HD is still set to start first!

    What I can do... I can't reinstall windows or get into regedit to fix the paper / log problem!

    Help!

    Hi Jamie,

    Normally, you can select a boot device selection menu when you turn on your laptop. You can do this by holding down the F12 key when you turn on. Hold it down until the phone beeps or the device selection menu appears.

    If this does not work then you can try the shortened Toshiba habit that is to hold the 'C' button in the power that would then cause the laptop to boot from the CD drive. Of course, there must be a bootable CD inserted first.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite P750 - no WIFI connection in all the

    Have had a new Satellite P750 for 2 weeks. Some intermittent problems, wireless modem connection - now no link at all. Connects to the modem with "limited activity" - so no internet. It connects ok with the modem cable. Have rebooted, checked the driver updates. No idea what to do to solve this problem. My first Toshiba and I'm really not happy I lost my money!

    Any help?

    Hi Brettd,

    > now no link at all. Connects to the modem with "limited activity".
    This confusion of s. At the moment you have no connection or limited? Both is not possible ;)

    I recommend an update of the WLAN driver and you can download the latest driver WLAN here:

    Also, make sure that MAC address is not blocked in router and update the firmware on your router.

  • Satellite A60: Cannot open all programs from the CD Rom

    I have a problem when you try to open any program from the CD, the computer is running a Windows Explorer message every time
    who says that it is an error and must close. I ran the computer through every virus program will and I have all of there Web site Microsoft updates. Someone at - it other ideas what could be the problem.

    Hello

    Well, strange question. It is maybe something wrong with the CD rom of s?
    The best idea is to recover this unit with the supplied restore CD, but first of all you can try to remove the CD rom from Device Manager device. After OS start the player will be recognized again. If the problem persists after this procedure, I would recommend to recover the device.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A100 PSAA9A - drivers and applications from the recovery disk

    This laptop was reformated HARD drive and I decided to try Windows 7 (beta), which is currently installed and working well. I would like to install the original drivers and applications from the Toshiba recovery disc but I don't want to reinstal the operating system (XP). Is this possible?

    As far as I know that is not possible because applications from the recovery disk and drivers are for Windows XP and they are not compatible with Windows 7.
    In addition it of not possible to install the only special drivers or applications from the recovery disc.

    You can download all the drivers and tools on the site of Toshiba, but I doubt that it of compatible with Windows 7, but you can try it out and post your result here.

  • Satellite P750 - grey and black stripes on the screen

    Hello

    I BOUGHT MY NEW TOSHIBA (3D) AROUND A MONTH AGO P750
    AT TIMES RANDOM SCREEN WILL BE BANDS GREY AND BLACK HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL
    IT IS GETTING WORSE FROM WHEN HE STARTED
    ALSO WHEN PUT ON THE TOSHIBA START LOGO ON SCREEN BEGINS TO BLINK
    SOMETIMES PASS THE SCREEN WIL HELP.
    NOT VERY HAPPY AS ITS NEW BRAND.
    COMPUTER LAPTOP MOVES FOR EXAMPLE HIS USE NORMAL OF A HOME WORK.

    ANY IDEA WAT I HAVE TO DO?

    In my opinion not only make sense for you is to contact your local dealer where you bought your laptop or a provider of services of Toshiba directly.

    You have for laptop with a valid warranty and if something like this happens, it must be fixed, or you should get the new laptop.
    Call the service, ask for help and I'm pretty sure that they will help you with that.
    Do you know how to find Toshiba service in your country?

  • Satellite L750 - impossible to recover anything from the CED

    I have a Satellite L750. I called and received advice from TS.

    I had suspected a virus and I wanted to restart from my CD that I created when I initially set the lap top up (I'm told that they are something of the image). I've learned to save and explained how to do this (I'm not warned technology; I know how to use the laptop for what I need, and that's all).
    So I followed the procedure given by TS and made a back up it took quiet some time.

    I contacted TS say again and again I have the CD I did again and I would like to save.
    I followed the steps for me: hold the '0' key push down the on/off switch and wait - then follow the steps on the scree for 32 or 64 bit, and some hand it the WARNING came up... it happened and then it seems to restart.

    When I asked help how really anything restart after that that it was not the support of security - and now I am unable to fix anything of the ERC myself nor I am able to recover something in the file 'back up' I - I made two more distinct (just in case).

    I would like to know if I can recover/reinstall/import/use / copy the CD information
    I did like the thing of the image

    AND

    How can I restore/reinstall/import/use/copy my files from this file backup that always asks me to 'restore' when I chose never - and even after this more than 4 times I have no files?

    I'm not at all intuitive in this area; I really tried to look on the internet without success...

    advice advice or info would really appreciate at this point, I tried to solve this problem since 08:05 Queensland times today (Friday 16.12.2011)

    I would like to thank in advance for their help

    Hello

    Maybe it sounds silly now, but it is not easy to help with this. I think either it works or not.

    Very portable can be recovered on two tracks:
    -with the help of HARD drive recovery option (recovery image is saved on the HARD drive)
    -using the created the CD or the DVD

    If you use zero initially to the top, I guess you portable non-European. In any case try please to created once using more disks.
    -Start your laptop and press F12 to get into the boot menu
    -put the recovery disk 1 into the optical disc drive
    -in the start menu, choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER

    Optical disc drive will start to read the disc and you have to do is follow the menu on the screen.

    Please do and tell us exactly what is happening.

  • Satellite A200 - 1 M 5: sounds from the HARD disk that is not regular

    Dear,

    I bought a new Satellite A200 - 1 M 5 1 week there are, but I have noticed a noise coming from your hard drive that is not regular, whenever the drive is currently in use, there is a noise from him. It's weird, I had Satellite phones precedents and never faced that.
    is this normal in this series of satellites? or damage my hard drive? Although it works very well so far.

    If anyone has an idea about this, please let me know it.

    Appreciate it.

    THX
    Salim

    > Whenever the drive is currently in use, there is a noise from him. It's weird
    Who is normal behavior that the HARD drive makes sounds while working.
    On some disks, the sound is louder and some drives are quieter.

    My laptop comes with a 100 GB HARD drive and I noticed that this HARD drive work harder than the previous 40 GB HARD disk.

    I don t think that there might be a problem with your HARD drive. It of new.
    So, in my opinion you should t be worried.

    and if the HARD drive is going to die your warranty covers the replacement ;)
