Two questions with Satellite A300-18

Well, I have a Toshiba A300-18 and when I use it for a long time, about five hours, for example, the programs seem to "freeze" and I can't work on it or open up new. Another problem is when I try to stop the laptop because the screen turns off but the lights remain and the computer didn't stop and rest as it until what I stopped it manually with the button WORKS. I tried to recover the factory values, but it stills equal.

(Sorry for my English, I'm Portuguese)

> when I use it for a long time, about five hours, for example, the programs seem to "freeze" and I can't work on it or open new ones.
It sounds like the laptop could freezes due to a higher internal temperature.
The high temperature could affect the functionality of memory and it would lead to this issue.
Please check if the vents are free of charge and ensure that there is enough free space around the laptop to ensure good air circulation.

Conversely, the temperature can arise at a critical level if n t cooling modules work as it should in this case the technician must check the laptop!

The second questions (the screen became black) could be resolved by the BIOS updated.
So check to see if a BIOS update is available and if it is possible

Best regards and good luck

    Hello

    I have a satellite A300 PSAJ4E windows 7 32 bit.
    I installed all the drivers to Toshiba support, but I have 2 problems.
    the first is that sometimes my screan does not open while the laptop is open and functioning. I know that his work because when I plug another screen his everything is ok.
    the other problem is that I have an unknown device (ACPI\TOS6205)

    Can someone help me?

    Thank you

    > the first is that sometimes my screan does not open while the laptop is open and functioning properly
    It is still problematic to discuss problems that sometimes occur. When this happens you can see Toshiba welcome screen or hear sounds of windows?
    > another DIF, is that I have an unknown device (ACPI\TOS6205)
    I think that you need to install the bluetooth drivers.

    Hello

    First of all, it would be interesting to know if you have already tried to reinstall the operating system on this laptop.
    I want to say that these two issues could be related to software problems

    The windows OS should receive and install Microsoft update without worries, and if this is not possible a software problem is possible.

    I put t know if some important system files are confusing upward or if a register issues causes bother but I m sure that Vista should receive patches and updates correctly after reinstalling again.

    Therefore, it would be desirable to test this! Before you start the recovery procedure to backup your important data!

    > The switch turns on only if I plug the laptop
    What you plug in? Do you mean the AC/DC adapter?
    If so does that mean you can only start Notepad with AC/DC adapter?

    > When starting, I get a message. Insert the media. So what I do is insert a DVD into the CD drive. The movie will then play. I then turns off the computer and then open it again to windows xp start.
    It's a bit confusing
    When you get the message insert media?
    And why you must restart the laptop to boot XP if you can play a movie before?

    Boyfriend sorry but it's really hard to understand. You should try to explain it in clear words and other phrases.

  • Two questions with Satellite A660-12th

    Hello

    I'm afraid that my English isn't the best but I think in English I get more answers, the German replies are alo ok.

    I have two problems, perhaps they are connected somehow.

    The first problem is that my laptop heats verry. In Windows 7 there are three options of different energies (maybe you still know) one is performance-based, so it is very hot. The second is called balanced and the third is energy saving and heat not verry, but the performance is bad. The heat is not the main problem.

    The main problem is a blue screen error that happens all by working or playing sometimes :) with graphics intensive programs of verry / games. This error is much more often in the first mentioned that in the energy saving mode. I thought that it is overheating, but would then a blue screen and after blue screen the system starts new imidiately and works as ever for the next 10 minutes, if I closed the laptop and let it cool down work much more time or sometimes gets not even blue screen crash.
    Here is the original message as germen, I tried to translate a bit litle.

    Thank you.

    I tried to send a German response, but the forum stopped me to do. It's the same answer in German: http://pastebin.com/3tLgyi0E

    English: your problem certainly seems to be overheating of the device due to stress on the graphic chipset. Go through the basic troubleshooting steps first. Make sure you have all available Windows updates installed and the latest drivers for your hardware, you can find. If the laptop still has a valid warranty, consider contacting Toshiba to make it fixed.

    Depending on how old your laptop is, you may have a problem of dust. Accumulation of dust and mud inside the laptop can prevent proper cooling, causing overheating you encounter. Consider to remove the bottom panel of the unit and spray compressed air into the radiators and fans to clean all the dirt. You can use software like SpeedFan to monitor indicators of temperature inside your laptop too.

    Failing that, you can consider buying a laptop external cooler. It is a basic specialized laptop sits on to keep cool during periods of intensive treatment. Most have an extra fan that really helps to dissipate the heat.

  • Two questions with Satellite A60-201

    I have this laptop from my uncle and he didn t gave me a cd or a book to him. Could someone help me please to find the drivers for it?
    And I have another problem. Even I support with coolers under him, he still heat stopped himself.

    Could someone help me please?

    Hello

    Drivers, tools and utilities for this model mobile, you can find on Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.
    It is important to choose an ARCHIVE under product type.

    Second problem (overheating) is specific to all the old models of laptops. You have to imagine that a lot of dust is absorbed in the notebook and all that dust will block the cooling rack. The cooling module will try to cool the material, and the result can be permanent and fast cooling fan running.
    If the laptop cannot be cooled correctly the temperature of the material can reach the critical level and notebook will stop.

    This problem can be solved simply laptop must be disassembled and cleaned.

  • Problems with Satellite A300 - 1GC XP install - CD does not?

    Hello

    I have a few looks to round in various forums and found no answer to everything.

    I have the Satellite A300-1GC and had (from last night) vista on it. As caused Vista
    a lot of problems with different programs, I decided to get rid of him.

    The problem is now--if I stick my XP installation CD it it bed "press any key to boot from CD".
    Do that and then nothing happens. The CD read head stops going back and forward
    but nothing happens at all. Not even the beginning of the blue installation screen.

    Any ideas where this comes from?

    The CD-rom can also be run in AHCI mode (can a CD player what do I do?) and requires drivers?
    I have tried various CD XP - neither work. The last one I had was with SP3 and build in February 2009 so quite recent.

    Clues?

    See you soon
    Tobimaster

    Hello

    In your case the question has nothing to do with the SATA mode (AHCI mode or Compatible) but it looks like the CD/DVD drive cannot handle the Win XP disc
    Why? Who knows

    Always is it that the CD cannot be read and so the installation can not get.

    Try to copy this disc by using another computer and then you can try using the disc copied on order to install Win XP.

    Just FYI: I use TDK (CD and DVD) r discs... I am very satisfied

  • Mute or LED on / off button question on Satellite A300 - 15 c

    Hello

    I have a similar problem. I have laptop Toshiba Satellite A300 - 15 c.

    Until recently, the multimedia keys worked fine. I have assigned an exe file to the second to the left key and been happy to use the power button lights and the dimmer.exe, but a few days ago the drive key stopped turning lights and acts rather as a key to turn off/turn on the sound. I checked the SCT and the key is always associated with the dimmer.exe. I even tried to associate the key with another function, but it remains just mutes / restores the sound the sound. You have an idea as to what could cause this problem and how can I solve this problem?

    And no, apart from updates to Vista randomly I have not installed anything new since before the key drive started acting weird...

    Hello!

    Value added package regulates these buttons and in this case, you must reinstall and use the latest version on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    As Garrett says you have to remove the old version first, restart, clean the system and then install the most recent drivers.

  • Problem with Satellite A300 and Vista 64 bit

    I just bought a Toshiba Satellite A300-1CO model: PSAJ4E-03R015PT, which came with an impressive 4 GB of ram device.
    I knew with Vista 32-bit, only 3 GB would be available, but since I got a license of Vista 64 bit I care, came home and installed it.
    When I looked up the drivers on the toshiba site, no drivers for Vista 64 bit drivers were available!
    I have now 4 GB or RAM available and I also have problems with face recognition software, microfone, sound card, card reader and a few other things.

    I searched the websites manufactors drivers and I managed to get some of these things barely usable, I don't think that it is a SD solution.
    Other laptop brands are made available long drivers for vista 64 bit some of them even for XP 64 bit!

    I would like to know how long take to Toshiba do official drivers available for vista 64 bit on their Web site.

    Best regards, Pedro P.

    I was looking for 64-bit drivers for my laptop, but since this is a new model, the drivers were not yet available. I checked a few weeks later and they were no longer available.

    Just wait awhile, they should be available soon.

  • Problems with Satellite A300-1 b 0 cooling: fan does not stop

    Hello users,.

    I m new on Linux and Ubuntu, I installed ubuntu 8.10 last week;
    All things are ok, ok start menu because I have XP, network ethernet connection and wireless, updates ok, ok packages!
    just one thing that make me "' it's my laptop fan, I explain:
    He turned on since I have connection ubuntu and it will be off only when that I disconnect "shutt down" my laptop, so it never stops until the

    the use of ubuntu, because with xp there start but if the processor is cold it is stop! and restart and etc...

    So if anyone has an idea, you are WELCOME!

    My laptop configuration:

    Satellite TOSHIBA A300-1 b 0
    Processor: core 2 duo T8100 2 .1GHz of
    RAM: 3 GB
    SATA hard drive
    Marvell Yukon 88E8040T Ethernet
    Intel wireless

    and I have the patched with the latest bios of the toshiba site
    Date of the bios 07 2008 v3.7 blistering

    > The use of Ubuntu, because with XP there start but if the processor is cold it is stop! and restart and etc...
    If I understand correctly using the Win XP the fan does not always with some breaks. Is this good?

    This isn't a problem but a friend feature.
    As you know the GPU creates a lot of heat.

    This is why it is important that the fan is way on and to cool the GPU or CPU if the temperature reached and some point.
    I put t know what temperature must be reached, but it cannot be too high due to overheating problems.

    Second graphics driver Toshiba control the performance of GPU and the dissipation of the heat too. If the temperature rises to a critical level (applications executing heavy performance) the diver decreases performance to ensure that the heat dissipation would come down.

    But this happens only if the cooling module will not be able to cool the internal temperature.

  • Two questions with Equium P200-178

    Hi all

    I've owned my faithful * P200-178 * (PSPB2E-001002AV) for a few years now with no problems until recently. It has windows vista Home premium installed.

    First of all the built-in wireless (PA3613U-1MPC) stopped working after that a "friend" he fell! The switch works ok, but the light no longer works. I reinstalled the driver and it did make a difference. A message appears saying that the wireless adapter was not installed during the installation of the software. I even tried a model from the same wireless adapter and it does not work. What is strange, it is when you use free configuration that he knows that the switch is either on or off, but can't find the adapter. The Device Manager also can not find.

    Second, after that my children has uploaded an image to their homework the notebook had a nervous breakdown! I have all the latest antivirus software and check the system on a regular basis. The image has been printed and has now been removed. I used to put the laptop and turn it off with the power switch and not by windows, stop facilities. This no longer works. After lifting the lid, press the power button / nothing happens. However pressing the icon of music "in a box with 6 Sparks coming from it" (sorry for the pathetic description) the portable lights. Windows Vitsa appears and first seems to be ok. During boot a message saying:

    Checking file system on \\?volume {ef *-long serial number not shown in the case its unique-806 *}
    The type of file system is NTFS.
    volume label is winRE.

    One of the drives should be checked for consistency. You
    may cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended
    that you continue
    Windows will now check the disk.

    CHKDSK checks the files (etc, etc, etc.)

    File segment 24,25,26 and 27 are unreadable, are repaired (I think that the info is too fast to read) and possibly boots. The laptop restarts now, too.

    WHAT CAN I DO IF ANYTHING TO SOLVE THESE PROBLEMS / QUESTIONS?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    In my opinion in the first case, there must be some physical damage and I do not think there is something you can do to fix it. I guess that laptop must be disassembled and port/switch WLAN must be controlled by technicians.

    About second question I can not say much, but in my opinion you should back up all your important data and reinstall the OS using recovery media delivered. With clean OS preinstalled, you can test the WLAN functionality again and the functionality of the power button.

    I know that this is a more radical method, but do what you will be able to test the functionality of the laptop with the State factory and without some strange files or entries in OS preinstalled.

    What do you think of all this?

  • Two questions with new Inspiron 3847

    Hello all,.

    I saw some problems with our new 3847 Inspiron that I hope someone learned more I can offer some tips on. I bought the PC at Costco and it came with a keyboard and a mouse, I use the included keyboard and mouse Logitech Trackball existing.  Here are the questions:

    (1) the PC does not wake up mode 'sleep', when I select a key on the keyboard or click the mouse (I must have done something right that appears not to be a problem now!).

    (2) when the monitor goes into sleep mode it appears that the PC is cutting the video signal to the screen but the screen is not extinguished, it displays a message 'no video Signal, check the cables.

    On our old Dell, under Win XP PC, the monitor would switch to sleep mode and wake up with a combination of keys (he has been connected with a vga cable while I use a hdmi on the new PC).  I checked all the settings and they seem to be well positioned and I have read the forums without success.
