Satellite Pro 6100: blue screen after overheating problem

My laptop overheats a year ago and since then I can only use it for about an hour at a time. First sign, it's going to blue screen, it's the hard drive starts clicking and about 5 minutes later, he dies.
Let it cool down for a few hours, then it is well again. It is not the disc hard as I tested it in another laptop.

Any ideas?
I desperately need to work again, it has been the best laptop I've ever owned, and I hate the idea of having to buy a new one with a touchpad.

Hello

Generally, the laptop overheats because the cooling module may not work correctly.
I guess that the blue screen appears because of the overheating.
In this case, I would recommend checking the cooling fans. Fans cannot work properly because of the dust and debris.
The use of the vacuum cleaner is the best way to clean the fans.
But be careful.

In addition, the square around the laptop must be free. It is important that fans can take a breath.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A200 - black screen after the BIOS screen

    Hello
    I'm new to the forum and have a big problem. So, any help is welcome and appreciated.

    My Satellite Pro A200 turns black after the BIOS screen and a black screen with a blinking cursor. Also just as the screen goes black a beep can be heard which shows windows boot.
    I can access the toshiba Setup screen but not the installation of security mode.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    You wrote that you can access the BIOS, but have you checked if the HARD drive is recognized properly? Perhaps because the computer cannot start HDD isn't recognized then you should check this.

    If the HARD drive is recognized, I would try a Toshiba Recovery disk recovery facility. It seems that Windows isn't able to start and if you reinstall the whole system should help get rid me of this. Go to the start menu and select the CD/DVD drive as a boot device.

  • Satellite Pro C50 - A - screen Black/Brown problem

    Hi all

    I want to share one problem that I have with my cell phone, just to see if anyone of you already experience or maybe you know some options how to solve this problem.

    I bought a Satellite Pro C50 - A model in January 2014, with 8.1 Windows preinstalled. A few weeks ago, I lived for the first time the question.

    Work with the laptop, the screen turns off suddenly. The laptop still works, that I've already connected to another screen and keyboard and the mouse works, everything. Even if you focus a little bit on the screen of the laptop, you can see the shape of what I'm doing, but very very dark, almost extinct.

    First time it happened, I was able to fix after a few attempts, unplug the laptop DC and taking the battery, then pressing the power button / stop for 30 seconds. I had to do this several times, and then it started working.

    The issue seems to be fixed, but yesterday it happened again, with the bad luck that do the same process is not enough... He worked for 1 min and then it turned off again...

    I don't know what I can do, as last option I would like to reset to factory settings, but it's something I want to jump.

    * Are there known error, malware or fault in laptops that could help me? *

    I thank very you much in advance!

    To be honest I have don recovery think t install image will help you.

    I put t have this bad experience on my Toshiba machines but I sure it's material m unwanted and cannot imagine that recovery clean installation will change anything.

    In the past, some people have reported on similar problems, and the reason was bad FL inverter.
    The warranty is still valid, so I think that you contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.

    Do you also have problems with the Toshiba Recovery disk or the Windows XP disc?

    The problem is probably related to the drivers SATA may have installed XP correctly when you change the HARD drive in the BIOS from AHCI compatible?

    Hello

    I would like that you suggest me solving this problem. I installed Win 7 on my laptop TOSHIBA (satellite P200-1BA). and installed all necessary drivers downloaded from the official website. But only the bluetooth driver produces the problem. When I install it, first it appears driver installed successfully, my intention to restart. After rebooting once windows starts (desktop appears) all of a sudden blue screen and the computer restarts again and again with blue screen that appears until I have disable bluetooth.

    Anyone who encountered this problem too, or that someone has an idea on his reason?

    It's very strange. I've installed several times on different models with different operating systems and all went well.
    Are you sure you are using the 32-bit version for 32 bit OS?

    What operating system is preinstalled on your laptop?

    What is wrong and how to fix this?

    BTW, I already have this BIOS version: P0044v370.exe installed.

    This means that you can not reproduce this problem?

    Hmm that's not easy to say what the issue might be.
    Maybe the BIOS update will help you at the moment you can find BIOS 3, 7 victory on the European driver Toshiba page.
    If you have a lower BIOS version installed, then I recommend an update.

    It is also possible that this problem is related to some of the material; motherboard, screen, etc.
    In this case the part should be replaced but first of all it of necessary to know what part is affected and I think that the technician of the ASP for this

    Satellite U300-159. I did a clean install of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Since the upgrade, it has blue screen every time you start after approx. 1 min. blue screen * STOP: 0x000000f4. The computer restarts it self after a while.

    I checked memory with 2 different programs. No errors. HARD drive checked - no error.
    Updated the BIOS, but get the error 1275 attempted using Toshibe updateprogram code.

    Anybody have ideas, what to do?

    Hey,.

    I m a bit confused about your ad first, you wrote that you did a clean install and then you wrote something about an upgrade
    What's true?

    Anyway, if you see the blue screen in safe mode too? If this isn't the case, it seems to be a driver issue because in safe mode no drivers will be loaded.

    Grettings Infi38

    Hello!

    You need to install SATA drivers before you install Windows and if you have compatible SATA mode you t need SATA drivers but you have lost performance a bit.

    So I want to reinstall Windows in AHCI mode, you need to download the Toshiba Storage Manager (http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com).
    Copy the driver on an external floppy drive and press F6 after starting the laptop to CD or create your own installation with nLite (http://www.nliteos.com/) disc.

  • Satellite M100 PSMAOA - blue screen after installing Vista Bluetooh battery

    I recently did the Vista home premium upgrade on my Satellite M100 (model psmaoa). I installed the Vista drivers as well as by the site "Toshiba Australia and New Zealand", but when I go to install the battery Bluetooth Vista I have blue screen...

    Any help woul appreciated

    Hello

    You update the BIOS?
    On several sets of Toshiba, the update of the BIOS is necessary if you go from XP to Vista or Vista to XP.

    I'm not sure about the Toshiba notebooks for Australian but the European Satellite M100 supports a special BIOS in Vista.
    I recommend you to check this first.

    In addition, I recommend trying to install BT stack from this Toshiba BT Portal;

  • Satellite T110-121 - blue screen after the installation of recovery

    Hello everyone! My name is Melanie and I want to apologize for my English: I m french! I have big problems on my laptop, I will explain:

    I had to install windows yesteday and I used the partition recovery, all worked but the last seetings, my computer fixed: blue screen. I have it reboot and I can log in on windows, now Toshiba software run at the end of the installation: install wireless and bluetouth BUT this software always get it fixed my computer or my screen is frozen, or screen of blus.

    Then, I removed it from the startep of the software list and tried to install the drivers I found on the Toshiba site but for the wireless, I run the software add anything, and for the bluetooth it says error 2753: setupdiu.exe is not marked for installation.

    So I m really disappointed, could you have some tips to help me please? I thought reinstall windows, but I can't reach the recovery: whose touch is?

    I m looking forward getting help.

    My best,

    Mel.

    Hey,.

    I think that something goes wrong when installing recovery and thus you get a blue screen and can t install the WLAN software. The best option would be to run the recovery process.

    But why you can't reach t recovery more? I mean you can use HARD drive recovery as often as you like and you can start if you enter Windows Advanced Boot menu (press F8 before Windows starts) and choose fix my computer. Select Toshiba HDD recovery, then follow the instructions on the screen. Windows will be reinstalled with all drivers and tools.

  • Satellite Pro 6100 slowy starting after crashing

    My Satellite Pro crashed recently and since then has worked ridiculously slowly, not only in windows, but start upward. Any ideas on what I can check to see what the problem is and we hope to resolve this?

    Hello

    What do you mean by crashed?
    Replace a few parts such as HARD drive?
    Usually if Notepad starts slowly, you should check the boot order in the BIOS.
    Try disconnecting additional devices if you have connected some external devices to the laptop.

    In addition, you can try running chkdsk to check the HARD disk for errors.

  • Satellite L650-1EQ - black screen and overheating problems

    Hello

    I have a problem with my laptop Satellite L650-1EQ.
    A few days ago my laptop was overheated quite often.
    I would like to start playing a video game and the computer could actually turn off after 10 minutes of playing it.

    I realized that this was getting serious so I stopped using my computer to play games and I decided that I need to clean it. However, I was looking for online on how to clean up my computer and then my screen turns white!

    I didn't know what happened and was very scared.
    I turned off the computer.

    The next day I turned on the computer to see if it was good, and the screen was black however the laptop power light comes on and I hear the vents work.

    I turned on the computer and tried to start it again, and the computer started fine.
    The image appeared and the problems disappeared.
    But I knew that something bad was about to come so I took the laptop computer repair technician.

    I told her what happened.
    He has used the vacuum to "clean" the dust of the computer and told me to go back if the computer kept a overheating.

    I restarted the computer again when I came home, and after an hour and a half the computer screen turns white but I don't think that it overheated. : s

    I tried to start the computer and the screen is black, no picture, the only light on is the power one and I hear the vents work. I tried of transformed market but now it just stays as if it were now.

    I tried on another computer for solutions such as the battery and pressing the power button for 2 minutes and other things, but nothing has worked. I don't know what to do so I decided to create a thread to get answers: s

    Hello

    This does not sound very good boyfriend. I'm afraid that there could be some sort of dysfunction material Mr. something like the problems of graphics card or motherboard issue.

    You can try plugging the external monitor to the laptop just to see if something would be visible on 2nd screen.
    But if nothing will appear on the 2nd monitor, I think that the chip of the graphics card died :(

    Of course, this is just my personal opinion and a laptop computer technician must check the laptop to know what part of the laptop could be faulty.
