  Hello

  Have a toshiba tecra 8100 and improved the Win98 operating system is XP Home. After installation, Windows update has installed all updates. Now, after 45 minutes of use, the computer freezes. Furthermore, it is still a Win 98 folder in the computer. Should I remove this? Could it be the cause of the problem? I would appreciate help with this. Thank you.

  I agree with asil. It is possible that your device has enough RAM and one moment is easy to much and laptop freezes simply.

  If you need info on writing RAM upgrade again.

• Tecra M9 - freezes on Windows XP and 7 (with high rotation FAN)

  We currently have 2 Tecra M9 the problem that is described here:

  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB0C032L0000R01.htm

  This also happens on Windows XP 32-bit (Win 7 is a 64-Bit system) and each time with high rotation FAN, the solution written in the KB does not help because after uninstalling the fingerprint software, it still looks!

  But we also have Tecra M9 machines where Windows XP and Windows 7 are running without this problem, a suggestion how to avoid this freezes?

  * Edit *.
  Today same problem with a Tecra A 9 (with Windows 7 64-bit)

  Hey,.

  All laptops have the same hardware configuration, or is it different?

  I think that sounds like a hardware malfunction, so an authorized service provider can help you get rid of this.

  Have you ever tried an update of the BIOS and load default settings?

• Tecra A8 freezing medium

  Hi I m back with the same problem:
  my computer last year laptop tecra A8 used to freeze everything by doing anything on my computer, sometimes she used to freeze everyday 2 - 3 times, sometimes after months.
  I got it for repairs.they kept for 2 days and said it was no problem and they just improved the slowness of my system. After that, I have not had any problems.
  Now, for some reason, I formatted my laptop and the problem is back, it gets frozen upward and fans do noise.any suggestion?

  It may be that your fan is full of dust. I suggest you to clean with a brush and a bottle with compressed air. If there is more dust inside your machine gets hot because the heat that is generated from the CPU cannot be carried out and the result of this is that your machine freezes.

  But I suggest you rather give back the machine to the service partner and tell them that you have the same problem again. Maybe better...

  See you soon

• Tecra A4 - freezing / crashing after start upward

  Hello

  My Tecra A4 is nearly 3 years old and over the weekend, it just started to freeze within minutes of the start.
  The point at which the machine crashes seems to be when all the various treatments start are completed. The hard drive seems to be stopped and at that time there it freezes.

  I managed to make it work for more than start a full crawl. Sounds weird I know, but as long as the hard drive is active the machine seems ok.
  It is still then up to a point and freezes leaving me with the only option of the laptop off the power by pressing the power button. Oddly enough, I didn't press the power button I have to just tap on it and the machine switches off completely. The longest, I got it to work for since is so fortunately I managed to copy 20 minutes on all my photos etc.

  I thought to try the recovery disk, but as I'm not sure why it freezes so I do not know if this will help?

  Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

  No one will be able to say exactly why your laptop freezes.
  Perhaps only the operating system is confused upward and therefore, it does not work properly. This should be checked permanently.

  But in my opinion, the laptop crashes because of the higher internal temperature.
  Perhaps the highest temp affect that the memory modules and this would lead to these symptoms of the computer.

  I had something like that on my old laptop and one of the modules was of damage due to heat.
  I replaced the modules of memory, clean the cooling fans and fans using a jet of compressed air and the laptop works fine now.

  In your case perhaps only cooling grids cleaning would be necessary.

• Tecra A8 freeze without obvious reason

  We have 15 laptop Tecra A8 in our office, and each of them freezes from time to time.
  There is no exact rule to this gel. Sometimes your laptop freezes three times in an hour and a few times they work without problem for a week or two.

  We believe that this problem is cooling, laptop.
  We tried to solve it with different settings of cooling but the problem persists.

  I noticed that other people on this forum have same problem.
  A person from Toshiba can give us an answer how to solve this problem?

  Hey Buddy,

  why Don t you send machines for a hardwarecheckup to a local servicepartner or at least just a bunch of them? This thing really looks like
  serious and I advise really bring you these machines to a toshiba technician.

  Welcome them

• Tecra M5 freezes at the home screen at startup (post Safeguard Easy Install)

  Since the installation of disc Safeguard Easy encryption, my M5 freezes to the initial Toshiba screen. Pressing Ctrl - Alt - Del was going on this and on backup password screen.

  It seems that there is a patch of BIOS for the Satellite Pro series, but I don't see anything for the Tecra, and Tecra M5.

  All advice appreciated.

  It's because of the bios Vista support for fastboot.
  There is a new version of utimaco released that fixes this bug.

• Virtualization of hardware on Tecra M5 freezes the system

  Hello

  I have this problem with hardware virtualization. It turns out that when I enable virtualization in the BIOS and I try to use it on a virtual machine that my entire system freezes. The FAN starts to run at full speed and the system crashes complestly. Not only the Virtual Machine.

  The only way to unlock is to turn off the phone by pressing the power button for 5 seconds.

  IM using Windows XP SP2 with all the patches and Virtual PC 2007. This was reported by other people who also use computers laptop toshiba (Tecra®).

  I use BIOS 3.30, and it comes to the core 2 duo 2.33 ghz version.

  Are there news when this will be fixed? I bought this laptop which cost about 1900 euros and I'm frustrated by the fact that I can't use it to its full potential.

  Tips are very welcome.

  Best regards

  Hello

  It happens only with Virtual PC 2007?
  I m not a Tecra but the Satellite A100 owner and I have used for a long time the VMware utility.
  It s a virtual machine and this software works the same as the Virtual PC.

  Have you tried to use the virtual virtualization software disabled in BIOS?

  Hello

  I'm also owner of laptop Tecra. Unfortunately mine isn't the newest one. AFAIK Tecra's big deal machine and always pre-installed with Windows XP Home edition Professional. Is there a special reason for a clean installation of Windows XP Home edition?

  Does the problem occur with the original installation of Windows XP Home edition? Are some of them connected to external devices? As you know that there are several reasons why this happen.

• Tecra 8200 freezes every few minutes with the XP Pro Retail version

  I've updated a Tecra 8200 with a retail version of Windows XP Pro SP2 (256 MB RAM) it was a new installation after reformatting the drive. I think I've loaded all Microsoft Windows updates and drivers from the site Web of Toshiba.
  The laptop freezes for about 30 seconds every few minutes, even when you try to open a session.
  Also when starting for the first time there is a constant repetitive ping of the noise, which I assume is the hanging windows startup sound. Finally, it stops and it can be used for a few minutes.

  Can someone please?

  Hello

  In my opinion, you should buy more RAM. As far as I know, this unit can manage with 512 MB max. You can use PC100 256 MB (PA3069U - 1 M 25). I'm sure the spirit more RAM there are much more likely to make it work.

  I hope that all hardware components are recognized and installed correctly. You can also try to check which processes are active and I advise you to stop. On this way, the processor has more power for other applications.

• Tecra 8200 freezing when moved

  problem that appeared and now it turns on but the power light comes on it just won't start - sometimes it does and when it's the least of the keys it will freeze im really stuck and don't know wot 2 do

  Hi Jack,

  It sounds as if there is a hardware fault with the internal components of your laptop. This can be something simple like a loose connection, or something more complicated.

  I suggest remove and replace then any device such as CD - RW, HDD, FDD, battery, etc. of RAM chips. If the problem continues then it will be probably needed to take the laptop to an authorized Service partner.

• Tecra A3 freezes at loadup windows screen

  Hello, I was wondering if someone can help me I have a problem with my laptop that I turned it off as usual last night, but this morning when I turned on it boots like normal it gets to the windows loading screen then a blue screen appears, but I can not read because the laptop restarts as soon as it appears can someone help me please?

  Thank you.

  My laptop is a Toshiba Tecra A3

  To display the BSOD, you can disable automatic reboot.

  Press F8 before Windows starts.
  In the menu, select:
  "Disable automatic reboot in case of system failure"

  Bad memory is often the cause of BSOD, especially when the new memory is installed but not tested.
  You can download Memtest www.memtest.org. Its a CD or a bootable diskette.

  Hello

  If you use the fingerprint software or if this software has been pre-installed on your OS I would recommend then remove the old version and update with the new application available on the European driver Toshiba page.

  A friend of mine had a similar problem and helped the Authentec fingerprint update!

• Tecra M3 freezes up, but I can't find the problem, please help! : D

  Basically, it seems to be something of a dry joint or lose the connection under the touchpad does about the pcmcia slots. The pc works only when pressure is applied to the plastic around the touchpad. Linux seems to work better than windows in terms of freezing. So, it can load an operating system and the bar going through and it just stops, it will not go further. The capslock light stick, as will numlock. However, once you apply pressure, she continues as usual. take the pressure off and it hangs again.

  Ideas?

  Hello

  Are you sure that there is nothing wrong with the HARD drive or Windows system files?
  You suggested that Linux works better than Windows.
  So I guess that the issue could be caused by a failure of the system.

  Have you tried to format the HARD drive and reinstalling the Windows operating system again?

  I can't believe that OS gel has something to do with the loss of connection, etc.. But who knows, impossible is nothing!

  In this case, you must contact the ASP in your county because the laptop must be professionally checked and this test can be done by a user of portable ordinaries like you and me.

  So good luck
