Screen flickers but stops when moved Satellite C

The problem started after I disassembled the laptop to clean it from dust.
As it usually happens a good intention ended up with something bad.

After this operation, I noticed lines horizontal flickering on the screen.
I don't see any consistency, but when I use it lying in bed it happens rarely, but left on the desk he flickers really often.
When the screen is slightly moved the flickering stops.

Well, I thought that a loose connection causing the problem, so I opened and tried to move each cable as well as every connection I could see.
I even opened the display screen and used a silicone glue gun glue the cables.

It did not help, I thought for a few days flicker was much less often.

Any ideas on what we can do to fix it?

The problem started after I disassembled the laptop

Puhhh... I guess that you had damaged something all by removing the procedure...

It would also be possible that a shield that reduces electromagnetic interference has been removed from some cables or parts...

Sorry, mate, but it's really hard to say why this appears especially after disassembly and opening of mobile by own hand

  • My Mac was purchased in November 2014. The fan makes a noise Purring but stops when I lift it and hold it vertically. I just got this back from repair to the workshop of John Lewis as he made a further strong noise.

    My Macbook (one and a half year). The fan has become noisy and I just got in return for repair from John Lewis. The problem is that I think that it is still too noisy. He runs not fast, but it is noisier than it was when we bought it first.  The fan noise also stops when I take the Mac on the end. Is this normal?  Thank you.

  • Embed the video does not stop when moving to the next slide...

    Hello

    I have a swf file that has 10 slides.

    2 blades have video integrated inside. His works well when I look at continlusly and better bandwidth, but when I tried on lower bandwidth then the video takes time to appear. On average while when clicked on the next slide to ignore the video, overlapping sound happens.

    So what are the best way to stop the previous video of the slide with voice so overcome that problem.

    Please let me know.

    Thank you

    Have you tried using Insert > FLV or F4V option to see if it works differently to you regarding audio turn off when you switch to the next slide in the file?

    Insofar as the loading time of your videos, try adjusting your project to a higher percentage preloader, for example 50% or more.  However, in general, I would say that you don't place video files even moderately heavy on the slides to the beginning of your project.

  • X 60-screen flickers and stop screen - problem with failure of hardware or management?

    Hi all

    It is one of the longest threads unresolved in the Lenovo Forum. To keep a summary of the positions of new victims (as suggested by the CEO on page 23, edited by me):


  • Computer stops with a blue screen with error fatal when the iPhone is connected

    I know it may not related to windows but I have tried other sites on this issue. My computer stops and a blue screen appears with the message saying fatal error when the iPhone is connected. I tried with or without iTunes installed.

    First without iTunes installed, windows will be asked to USB drivers for the iPhone, but I couldn't find anything on the Apple Web sites if I click No., a message appeared, saying that it might not work properly because he could not recognize my device. Second, I have the latest version of iTunes installed, windows began to recognize my iPhone but stop immediately after that with a blue screen fatal error and messeage saying updating the BIOS. Updated the BIOS of the computer, but nothing helped.

    My computer runs on Windows XP Home Edition SP3, processor Intel Core Duo 1'66 GHz, 2 GB Ram, Intel GMA 950, Intel 945 GM chipset.

    I thought that it requires no USB driver for iPhone on Windows or same iTunes unless I wanted to use it for synchronization or characteristics. Please forgive me if I'm wrong, because I tried it on other computers and it had no problem with the USB drivers and Windows can install by itself.

    Thank you.

  • Screen flickering on the new Satellite R850-10F

    Hello

    I bought my Toshiba computer 3 days ago and my computer laptop screen flickers randomly, especially when the computer is running (CPU load or data WIFI). Twinkle is similar to this image:
    http://olavthoresen.com/Pandora/flickering.jpg (I just found this picture on the net to illustrate the glitter - it is not not my computer).

    I don't know if it's a hardware problem or something wrong with the graphics drivers. I did the following to solve my problem:
    -Reinstalled the graphics driver to support Toshiba
    -Updated the BIOS to the old version
    -Full system restore (so it's back to factory State)
    -Slightly hit in the back of the screen

    ... and the problem still persists. It seems more that there is a HW problem I can't find someone with the same problem. What should I do?

    Bring your notebookt at the local dealership and replacement demand. Don't waste your time anymore.
    You should get a new one.

    Given the age of the computer, there may be a UPS or any other room display could be

    exhaust. There are a few parts that could cause this symptom; and let the flicker

    occur when moving the display (open/close), there is a circuit of the logic board to display

    which may be replaced by a new cable or other part. And if the computer is still using

    the original hard disk drive which at is a moving part (rotation with pens) & could be replaced.

  • Screen turns off when the Satellite A45-S250 is moved in the direction of less

    Hello.

    I have a satellite A45-S250. I had no previous problem with this machine. However, when the computer is running too long, or it is moved in the slightest way the screen turns off. I don't even have to type very slowly - or I lose the screen.

    But also, as I have said - sometimes I won't even be near the computer and the screen turns off. When I lose the screen if the light shines on it - I can see, it's always VERY fair Sun. Generally, it will come if I use the FN + F5 button.

    I don't know if it is a screen problem or a connection problem. It occurs with increased frequency. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Thank you

  • Satellite Pro C50 - A - 1 K 9 - screen flickers power on and off

    Has anyone encountered a problem where the screen flickers power on and off? Mine will Dim to the point where you can't see whats happening and then back to normal.

    I tried a restore drivers, but the problem persisted. I did also check complete anti-virus (I realize that it was probably not the cause of the problem, but decided to be complete). I was thinking that it's purely a hardware problem, like when I use an external monitor connected through a HDMI cable I don't have this problem.

    I guess it must be a problem with the connection between the screen and the motherboard. Maybe a problem within the hinge where they cross connection.

    Anyone got any other suggestions until I sent it off for repair (only he got in March and I have a 2 year warranty, but who goes back to college soon and do not want to be without him).

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C50 - A - 1 k 9.

    Thanks in advance.

    I agree with you, Fraser and think it could be hardware related issue but I don't in any way you can fix it alone. Your laptop must be controlled by the Toshiba service provider.

    Contact the nearest service provider for Toshiba in your country, explain the situation and ask for help.

  • Satellite X 200-252 screen flickers on desktop

    Hello
    I really want to upgrade my laptop to Windows 7, I tried RC front, x 64, and x 86. Now, I bought x 64 ultimate for my desktop so I decided to try it too on Toshiba Satellite X 200-252. Everything works perfectly, except for the video driver.
    PROBLEM: screen flickers on the desktop without reason. This happens even when I do nothing, all the seconds for example just to read a pdf file or watch the nice wallpaper I.
    -with the original preinstalled Vista Home Premium x 86 I try to update display driver is more recent than the 7.15.11.7605
    -with windows XP and drivers downloaded from nVidia
    -with windows 7 all versions, nVidia drivers, tried several
    -with windows 7 drivers of Toshiba U.S. site X 205 model (cost installation, no upgrade of Windowses)
    Glitter for me means one of the following:
    -for a fraction of a second, a part of the screen deforms
    -a few lines unexpectedly appear and disappear on and off screen for no reason
    -l' screen becomes black, in whole or in part and turns on OK once again, while a few milliseconds.

    What I tried to do:
    -the ONLY driver that works correctly under vista is the original and most recent 7.15.11.7605 of Toshiba, dated June 25, 2008. NO driver work correctly under Win 7 or XP.
    -Toshiba links to the nVidia site, where I can download newer drivers - supposedly I can, but screen flickers on all windows.
    -Model drivers Toshiba X 205 for Vista or Win 7 from the Web of Toshiba U.S. site also exhibit this behavior. This product is identical to mine both chipset and gpu.
    -Toshiba Software to install - (does not include video driver anyway, as far as I could tell)

    What I expect:
    -Si Toshiba could identify all they put tweak under their "last good"original driver, it would be good to know about this, although X 205 driver did not work.
    -Also if anyone successfully installed any driver newer than one mentioned display, please leave me a comment with a version or if they had need special tips AND if the display is stable.
    -A method to test the graphics card / memory on my computer to find errors, something in memtest 86 + flavor.

    Concerning
    Krzysztof

    Hello

    The Satellite X 200-252 was equipped with the graphics card or similar, as the Toshiba P200 of Satego European PSPBEE series.
    Try the display driver released for this series too.
    Maybe you could use a driver Vista Win 7 OS.

    The drivers are located on the page of the European driver Toshiba

    Good luck

  • Satellite P300D - screen flickers and the battery is unstable

    I bought the new Satellite P300d-h-13, I liked a lot, but from the first day I have problems with it.

    1. when on battery, the screen flickers - it will clear less brilliant, just like I'm shaking the laptop (I'm not :))
    2. battery is not stable: when I use the battery indication of remaining time power is going from little or a lot, I mean for example on 90 percent, it says 59 minutes and on 60 it says 1 hour and something when he is on 50 say 30 minutes and when it is at 25 percent It says 25 minutes then to 23 per cent arrives at 17 minutes.
    I guess the problems are linked, but I don't know what to do. Contact service, or do I have to install any software?

    3. a third problem is a small white spot on the screen - it's about a pixel or at most 5 pxls and it is too bright. I guess that's a dead pixel (s) but I am not happy when a new laptop has this problem (s)

    So if anyone can give me some advice I would appreciate it a lot.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hello Hio

    Do you always use factory settings or you have installed your own operating system?
    Have you noticed the number one and two on the first day?

    What about dead pixel? I know it's not nice, but I wonder you didn't react immediately after the first or second day and try to talk with your dealer and ask for replacement. Please check follow documents on dead pixel:

    Please help and reply soon

    Hi danysafi,

    You're right: the problem is since the screen backlight, LCD or cable LCD but who should we check this without diagnostic tools?

    With other words in this case you need help from an authorized service provider because they have diagnostic tools to check the special hardware. In my opinion that's the easier and faster way, if your laptop is under warranty, the repair is free.

    Last but not least, you can find a list of all FSA official website of Toshiba. :)

  • Satellite Pro M40: computer stops when you press the SHIFT key

    Sometimes when I press the shift key it wonder if I want to shut down the computer. It also changes the internet Explorer mode in full screen. When it arrives it will be continually for centuries and then suddenly stop. Then start again. It seems not to happen at any given time. I disabled the hot key in the Toshiba utility and which comes to the top of the Tower stops when I pressed the SHIFT key, it does not give me the option.
    It's really annoys me because I can't just think what to do.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It's very strange. It is the first time I heard about this issue.
    As much as I know the Toshiba utility cannot add additional functions to shift and make this key as a stop button.
    I have gift? don't know if you have installed the 3rd party applications that can change the keyboard feature, but you should check this possibility.

    In addition can also be a defective hardware. Maybe something wrong with the keyboard controller. But of course the diagnostic test is necessary.
