• Equium A60: random screen blackouts

  Hey guys & girls,

  I recently bought a P4 A60 satellite at Christmas and since then I ve had a small number of growing problems and I was wondering if anyone knows the same thing?

  It only worsened recently when windows XP home wouldn t start so I had to use Norton ghost to transfer my work off the laptop computer via a network of my home machine.

  After inspecting the safe mode boot log, the computer seems to keep the gel and then restart on an ati.sys driver, but before that I ve had a lot of problems with my screen so I m wondering if it can in fact be hardware related?

  symptoms: random screen blackouts (having to close the lid and reopen it to do to turn around).
  Unexpected windows failure when loading the ATI drivers to the windows startup.
  When I went to use the Toshiba Recovery DVD the screen turns off and he won t come back.

  Help, please

  Hello Tom

  On this path, it is not easy to say why all this is happening, but after the recovery procedure, everything should be ok again. If there is no success after the recovery procedure you should contact the Service partner. The device has a valid warranty and all costs will be covered.

  I guess the recovery procedure is known to you. Honestly I n t understood exactly what you hear with the screen turning off the coast guard and he won t come back. Can you explain to me exactly what happens if you want to retrieve the unit?

• Screen blackout Satellite A series

  A few weeks ago, I very kindly filled a questionnaire online for Toshiba. The theme was: "it is now more than two years and it still works. A week later a big boost two line appeared in the middle of the screen! My last laptop of a different manufacturer lasted me five years and my beautiful has now used for two or more without event.

  I thought I would say Toshiba out of unhappiness. I logged onto the Web site support pages and looked for information 'contact us '. Nowhere to be found. Therefore, it seems that I need a new laptop.

  It is very a pity but what to say. Each notebook is a high-end product and I think that a hardware failure can still happen.
  To avoid a disadvantage, I always recommend buying an additional guarantee.
  In this case, the warranty will cover everything.

  In just a few words about the blackout;
  Well, it sounds like a GPU (graphics chip) fault.
  But to be 100% sure, you can connect the laptop on the external monitor. If the same appears on the external display so you can be sure that it is a graphics card failure.

  Unfortunately, the graphics card is set on the map and it of not possible to remove only the GPU. In this case, the entire motherboard must be replaced.

• Out of black screen on my Equium A100 - 01 M

  Hi all

  Recently bought this phone and im happy with it however,
  When you play games like world of warcraft 3D, from time to time I get screen failures, no true model, doesn't even have to build up or highly areas of Norway.
  I tried setting the lowest graphics options, tried to download the drivers updated, but still have the problem (it happens less with drivers toshiba than microsoft ones)
  When I first started all first the computer laptop Nvidia drivers in the list of installed programs, I noticed, I uninstalled them since it has a processor intel 945GM

  Everything else is fine, pace is smooth (for a laptop) and it works sweet as a nut with the exception of those annoying power failures bit

  Any help is appreciated
  Thank you

  Hello

  > When I first started the laptop I noticed some NVIDIA drivers in the list of installed programs, I have uninstalled them since it has an Intel 945GM processor
  As I know the Equium A100 series was delivered with two cards; nVidia and Intel.

  The same image of Toshiba is used on series of notebooks and therefore the driver nVidia and Intel driver have been installed on the same image.

  The laptop came with Vista I am mistaken? I noticed that a lot of games is not 100% compatible with vista drivers.
  Above all it s a graphic driver.
  It would be very interesting to know if the same screen blackouts happen XP

  You know, the Vista operating system needs much more resources than XP and Intel shared memory graphics card is not really designed to play the latest 3D games.
  In my opinion at that time the XP is recommended for play the game

• 372T - Acer R7 R13: screen often goes out for a second and returns back, CORRECT.

  I have power cuts momentary screen, usually while you browse in Chrome/Opera with several tabs open. You also have this kind of disturbing screen blackouts? I really like my R13, but it keeps listening to me that I even think about selling my laptop. I tried the graphics driver update myself, but he says it has been customized by the manufacturer. I would be grateful if you could provide an update to resolve this issue. Thank you.

  Hello, I sought a solution on the WWW and discovered that it was because of some 3D settings in the Intel HD Graphics Control Panel that I've changed. I disabled the Optimal Mode of the Application. It now seems to work without any problems.

• Windows has asked for the same activation when I did

  So, I bought a Dell computer with Windows 7. Recently, I tried to install Windows XP Mode, and they keep telling me to install Microsoft Genuine. I install but the site won't let me download Windows XP Mode. They said he failed and redirect me to to buy genuine Microsoft Software Web site. I did not, but on the page, they show a few ways to activate Windows. I followed it by clicking 'activate' in the start menu > search. There is activate Windows so I click on it. Because they required the product key I just close the window. But after the restart, screen blackout curtains and the activation window appear saying activation has expired. After clicking on cancel, I check in my computer > properties and see that Windows is activated with the product ID.  I don't want to turn on the computer every time to see a window and cancel it. Also, I don't know where is the product key on my computer (it's a Dell Precision 390 upgrade of Windows XP). Those who know how to solve this problem?

  I suggest you try to get a satisfaction of the seller. (threats to involve the application of the law for fraud can help)

  the retail price for a full version of ultimate is about $319,00
  the only other choice is to buy a genuine windows. family premium is $199 price but I see that some legitimate retailers are discounting about $170,00
  You can try to get a your manufacturer OEM xp recovery disk if they have yet.

• Don't get in front of the Windows login since the blackout screen

  Original title: startup in Vista

  I am running Microsoft Vista and had a blackout.  Now I can't get back Windows beyond the log on screen.  The system came pre-installed.  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  What to do if Windows does not start correctly

  Pick up the pieces after a computer crash
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/picking-up-the-pieces-after-a-computer-crash

  Remove ALL power and reinstall all the memory cards and cables (both ends where possible).
  in fact, remove and replace - don't do not just tight. Remove the dust bunnies and clean the
  air vents. Check that fans are working (before and after opening the case). When your laptop on all the
  You can do is to reinstall the memory and clean the vents (still may try to add a small fan as a
  test).

  Check with a real computer store (one that makes its own service internal and not of leeks)
  and displays a Best Buy or other stores) or system manufacturer support. Also
  Ask in their forums known problems (if any).

  I hope this helps.

  Hi Claudia

  I n t have this machine and cannot say what may be the problem. Try to roll back the OS to earlier time when he was working just to see if this will help. If this is not the case, try to reinstall the OS using recovery image installation and test with the factory settings.

• The screen saver blackout

  Sometimes I take the use of Spotify music and to put my screen saver on but after a while the disaster pictures and black-green towers. As soon as I move my mouse it goes back to normal, but it's really annoying. This is a planned feature and if so how do I turn it off?

  In preferences-> Energy Saver system have you tried affecting the sleep of the display to a high value or "never"?

  

• Red screen (then blackout) - t60

  My T60 has a red tint on the screen, and after only 5-10 minutes the screen turns off.  Can someone tell me what is the cause or how to fix?

  wayneandniki, welcome to the forum,

  Your system works OK with an external display?

  A red tint or pikish on a screen is an indication that the backlight is failing and that he will die eventually. Is the easiest to fix by replacing the screen. -Sorry, it's not better news

• iMac 8.1 White Screen of Death

  Before I launch into history, here are some of the relevant features of my computer. I have an iMac 8.1 (2008 model) with a processor clocked at 2.66 DC2, 2 GB of RAM and a hard disk of 1 TB with three partitions. The main (about 640 GB) ran 10.11, the second a (32) snow leopard and the rest it has been implemented with Windows 7. This configuration worked well enough (if a little cludgily) for some time, but the other day, things came to a head.

  It has a bit of history history, please bear with me.

  Monday, after the computer has been awkwardly slow with no application, I thought to reinstall El Capitan to see if that would help. After the installation failed, I ran disk utility on the main partition to see what he would say. After a brief inspection, he said that it was a problem he couldn't solve, recommended making sure that my data has been backed up and clear. The Snow Leopard partition, however, seemed fine. Somewhere along the line I also gave Techtool Pro 8 a spin; It seems to indicate that most of the things associated with non-partition were very well, but found that the hard drive (in general) has failed to test temperature.

  In any case, I boot in Snow Leopard, I guess to see if the old version of disk utility would have a bit more luck (this may sound stupid, but I confess I have a lingering distrust of the latest iteration of this software). As expected, he did not progress. I even ran DiskWarrior 4, and he says that the partition was shot. Somewhere along the way, I had disassembled the main partition for a reason, and after not being able to get him back for some time (and getting only ReadOnly when she didn't come back), I myself resigned and the likelihood that the partition was shot. We ran by Best Buy and picked up a 1 TB external drive (which I never had before, as stupid as it sounds; "I guess I never realized to cheap ways they had obtained). I spend a night using carbon copy to backup my important data and when I'm done moving things on the next day morning, delete this partition. So far so good. I reinstall El Capitan without any hitch and spend a day or two, transfer of information on the 'new '. I also make sure to configure the new disk as a time Machine, get all my data saved on it.

  Things seem to be fine, and I'm starting to get back to my daily routine. However, this morning, after the connection and use it for a little while, the entire screen changes abruptly a very light grey/white color and no unresponsive. I understand that nothing is happening, stop and restart the power. The screen remains white. The slider appears, but nothing big happens else. At some point (I'm afraid I don't remember if it's on this first boot or one of the few later), a folder with a flashing question mark appears (this never appeared, however, on one or two startups). I try different things: reset PRAM (which at least brought the sound chime, who had kept silent, back), reset the SMC and boot into safe mode, a disc hard my choice with the Option key pressed, or since the Snow Leopard DVD. When he answered the optionkey down initially, it would shoot the cursor and screen as if he was going to offer me different drives, but nothing ever came, not even the external drive. After further start attempts, he stopped to show anything, even the cursor.

  I have the external drive disconnected right now. When you start the computer, a white screen comes up and then nothing else seems to happen, no matter what key combos are pressed.

  It was for some time ago, but I thought it would be useful to mention that we sometimes have blackouts here. After such an event, old computer power supply burned and had to be replaced. Since that time, however, everything seemed to work pretty well.

  I looked around, discussions and others to try to see if I could find a similar experience, but as it is I'm quite puzzled. The only thing I have not tried is opened and unplug the hard drive as suggested by an intern, to see if she might try to find other media to boot from.

  I thought I would ask here to see if he has any advice this community had to offer before doing something drastic. Thanks for reading and your review.

  If you have the original install disc provided with the computer, run Apple Hardware Test Mode Extended 2 - 3 times back to back. If errors appear when you have confirmed a significant hardware problem the computer has to go repair. The reason to run AHT in Extended Mode what is complete, but it can miss errors during the first and even the second pass.

  However my guess is have some other hardware problem and you really takes them to a CENTER in your area to be diagnosed professionally.

• Firefox - screen / text is distorted, magnified, inverted, regularized...

  When ever I start FF the screen is distorted - on a slope, in fact. The text on the web pages will be expanded vertically, blackout curtains. The radio buttons will be moved from its position, but if I am lucky and drag the mouse all over where it should be, he will reappear and be functional.

  Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox.
