M30 Screen Freezes, System Crashes
I bought this laptop less than 8 weeks ago & have been battling this problem ever since. Basically the screen will freeze then display this strange screen which is blank with a pattern on it like someone has thrown some liquid on the screen. That's the best description I can give anyway. The only way to shut down the system is by holding down the power button. After several startups eventually will get back into windows, at least until it happens again.
I have tried downloading latest grahics card drivers but doesn't solve the problem.
Help please
Andrew
Hi Andrew,
You don't say if your notebook came with an OEM Windows pre-installed or if you have installed your own system. Either way I would recommend backing up your own data to a safe medium and then reinstalling the operating system.
If you still have the problem I would then suggest that you contact a Toshiba authorised Service Agent (see list on the Toshiba web-site) and asking them to check it since it will still be under warranty.

Satellite M30 - Screen freezes and then goes white
Hello,
After searching with M30-241 and finding nothing, I'm trying this way. My Notebook is 2,5 years old has been repaired once because of the white screen and now it's doing it again. When playing a game like snooker 2003 the screen freezes you can hear the sound going on and then the screen starts getting transparent until it is completely white.
I have to press the power bitten and shut down the system but it only happens by gaming. Word, excel, PowerPoint, films no problem.
Thanks for your help

thanks for your help fireman6135Hi Anton,
This situation is usually caused by the Graphics/CPU chip getting too hot. I suggest you try cleaning out the ventilation grilles of your notebook and also make sure that there is no obstruction to the free flow of air through the cooling heat-sink.

Fall 2013 Macbook Pro Retina screen freezing and crashing
Hello,
lately, I have been experiencing some screen freezes on my Macbook Pro Retina 15''... The screen just freezes, including the mouse pointer and then it doesn't respond to anything. I just have to restart the machine again. This happens sometimes and not every day, but still a few times a week. I just do normal things on my mac while I get this problem.
Also, just recently almost an hour ago, my screen just turned all white and it said "Your computer restarted because of a problem. Press any key to continue or a wait a couple minutes for it to reboot." This time, I was watching a movie when it happened.
I have also verified the disk in disk utility, but no errors.
What may be causing this issue? Hardware? Software? I also have applecare, but I'm eager to find out what's the problem before I hand it to the apple store.
Thank you very much!

Gateway DX4840 is Experiencing Screen Freezing and Crashing
I am running Windows 7. This problem started about three weeks ago. Occasionally the screen freezes and nothing will unfreeze it except a cold boot. Control-Alt-Delete does nothing. Sometimes the screen goes black. At other times the screen shows
an odd multicolour pattern. Occasionally the computer crashes altogether.
I can not seem to find any hardware problem. Sometimes the computer will run for several days with no difficulty. There is no sign of a virus. I have checked my C drive for problems and found nothing.
I normally run Chrome and sometimes Chrome and Explorer at the same time. Has anybody experienced this problem.
Thanks very much.Hi,
Firstly, please check the issue with the method below:
Windows hangs or freezes
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2681286
Meanwhile, I think you need also to check the hardware side; please ensure all the drivers are up-to-date and you can also contact Gateway support for help.
Thanks.

HP Pavilion Elite m9065uk - Pink Screen Freeze and crash
Hi,
Hopefully someone here can help me. I have a HP Pavilion m9065uk Desktop and I am having problems and I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction.
Over the last month or so I have been having a problem with it the PC crashing, at first it started when booting up, it would get as far as the Microsoft loading bar then just a black screen and nothing. I would reboot and it would boot up fine, but then started freezing with a pink screen, then after a few minutes either go to black screen or nothing happening at all. Sometimes it starts to restart up then fails to start and startup repair comes up but sometimes fails. I changed the power supply back in March, but I dont believe if this has anything to do with it, the supply is the same as the original.
I googled the boards and it was suggested that the nvidia graphics card might be the problem. so reinstalled the drivers and then tried updating the drivers and its still the same problem. The reason I say i suspect the graphics card is that sometimes when the problem originally began I would get an error message saying that "display driver failed and recovered".
Is this a problem with the NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT card? There is no Integrated graphics card on the PC when a graphics card is installed.
The PC will work for a day or 2 then the same pink screen crash occurs, now all of a sudden it wont boot up, keeps going to launch startup repair, which does not work. I can boot up to safe mode only.
Hopefully someone would be able to point me in the right direction. I dont want to have to go changing the motherboard or worse still pay for a new PC.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, O Hi,
Is this HP PC the same as yours? It might be the video card or a weak power supply. Try reseating the video card and see if that makes a difference. Take a can of compress air and blow out all of the dust from CPU heat sink and the fan on the video card. See if that makes a difference.
You could try removing the video card and connect the monitor using a VGA cable to the integrated video port on the back of your PC. Hopefully your monitor has a VGA port and you have a VGA cable. The integrated video adapter is Intel so you will have to update the video driver. Look here for the update.

GX740 065NE, MS 1727. Screen freezing, graphic driver crashing.
Hello, i got problems with the screen freezing, graphicdriver crashing, screen even getting spiky and flimmering when trying to start games.
I used to have problem with high fan speed/noise, graphicdriver crashing, screen freeezing, BSOD and so on. Well ive been having it like this since i bought this laptop.
Anyway, so few days ago i decided to try updating the Vbios.
I updated the Vbios and i did fix the high fan speed, much lower noise.
The problems with screen freezing was increased after the Vbios update.
Alltho it seems like im not getting anymore BSOD's at least.
I have tryed both the latest graphic drivers from AMD ATI and from MSI's website, non of them solved the problem.

38%If you've had the problem from day one, then yes, I think an RMA sounds like a good course of action. It sounds like you've done everything you can by changing the drivers, updating the VBIOS, and so on. Only thing I can suggest is to uninstall the current graphics drivers, run >>Driver Sweeper<<, and then install the latest drivers again. I'd suggest installing the latest patches for the games you play, but if they all freeze then it's obviously not a game issue.

Multi-Gesture Screen Freezes with IOS 8.1
Random screen freezes and crashes are still occurring on my iPad Air when using the Multi-Gestures feature, after installing IOS 8.1. This problem started with IOS 8.0, continued with IOS 8.02, and is still present in IOS 8.1. Apple, please fix this! Having to reboot multiple times a day is very annoying. Turning the Multi-Gesture feature off obviously stops the problem but is not a real solution. If a feature is present, it needs to work right.
HHe's. A simple visit to Settings, disabling and then immediately re-enabling the feature fixes the issue. But just for a while.
APPLE: Do you hear us? This should be a VERY easy issue to resolve. It's pervasive, well documented, and utterly annoying and frustrating. Please issue a fix ASAP. -
G5 crashes / screen freeze
Hi
About 3 - 10mins after startup, the little coloured wheel comes up and the screen freezes then sometimes the fans start to rev up and the only option is to shutdown. This has been happening for the last 3-4 days. I have tried resetting the PRAM & SMU.
I have also tried to run the apple hardware test and run antivirus but it crashes halfway through which makes me think it is software related? I would very much appreciate any help or views on this.
Thanks in advance, Staff.Apple Hardware Test doesn't involve any operating system.
Antivirus can cause problems.
The fans rev because the system hasn't loaded to the point where it controls fans and does so to protect the hardware.
A corrupt journal can be one problem; the disk directory probably needs to be repaired and you need to boot from another medium (hard drive preferably, DVD with same OS). Or Single User Mode (Command S) and run fsck -fy (command tip is on screen at prompt).
Start with Disk Utility First Aid, but I would rely on Disk Warrior to do a better job.

System Crash Screen after Mountain Lion Installation
I tried to install Mountain Lion on 2 different MacBook Pro Laptops, one newer 15" running latest version of OSX Lion and the other a 13" running latest updated OS as well. I can download the software, it goes through download, starts the app, I get the app started on the install and then let it do it's thing, when I return to check on it I get a screen full of numbers and text with the error message that states you have to press and hold power to turn off. The same kind of screen you get when your system crashes and can't run.
Not sure if it's when it's trying to reboot or if its when the OS is installing. I run little snitch and gave the app full access on all ports to the Internet, but not sure. The 13" MP wasn't connected to anything except a LAN cable, no external monitor or keyboard or even a mouse. Just the laptop itself.
The 15" is connected to display, keyboard, mouse and an external hard drive.
The only way I was able to fix, was to reboot using Command R to get into recovery mode and restore from backup using Time Machine worked perfectly fortunately.
Any ideas on why it wouldn't install? or how to fix?
I even made sure to close down all applications first prior to installing.
The only thing I didn't do was to disable Time Machine, not sure if it tried to kick off during the installation and that made it crash or not?I disabled Time Machine and tried it again. This time I watched it. It ran the first part of the application and then rebooted. When it rebooted it came up with the following text screen with the window to reboot hold down power button:

Mac Pro increasingly frequent screen freezes / crashes
Hi,
Freezes on my MacPro are becomming increasingly frequent - I need to work out what the problem is as it's making the machine unusable. If anyone is having similar problems or has found a fix, please post here.
The issue that I am seeing is that suddenly the keyboard and mouse stop responding and the screen freezes. At first it's as if I've lost sight of the mouse pointer since the screen looks OK, but then I notice the keyboard has stopped working too. The little clock in the corner of the screen stops updating. It's not possible to quit or force quit anything. It sounds like the hard drives are doing something. I am able to SSH in to the machine while hung but not able to reboot it or shut it down (it just errors).
The only thing that enables me to recover my machine is to press and hold the power button for about 10secs until it powers off. Then I can power it up again and it works fine. If I run disk utility after reboot it doesn't find any issues.
I've not been able to find any link between the software I'm running - it just happened this evening about 7 minutes after booting when iTunes was the only open application.
It's a 2.8Ghz dual quad core pro with the 8800, 10G RAM, 4 drives, bluetooth keyboard and a wireless logitech mouse. I just put new batteries in the keyboard, have had 3 more crashes since. It has Airport but it is switched off. The only things plugged in to the USB / Firewire are an ACD monitor, an APC UPS and the reciver for the USB Mouse. All of it has been working fine with no hardware changes since delivery (for about 6-7 months). The only thing I've changed on the hardware in the last 6 months is I added a 4th drive last week, but the crashes had started before then. I'm running 10.5.4. Apart from this issue it's a fantastic machine, but with this issue it's like having a ferrari that stalls every few hundred yards.
is anyone else having similar crashes? If so, please post details of spec of machine and sofware / hardware in use when it happens so that we can try and work out what is causing them and fix it.
many thanks,
Rog.Run Disk Warrior. Don't just restart and use the verify option in Disk Utility, boot from another drive.
RAM. USB devices. almost anything should be suspect.
Try setting up an emergency boot drive. OS X doesn't repair itself all that well, Disk Utility doesn't find as many errors, or fix, as 3rd party tools.
I would delete extensions.mkext and caches folders (not home caches), turn off journaling before repair, then turn on after. And run all the tests in Disk Warrior or other program, not just directory rebuild, scan all the files too. -
System crash when trying to connect IPod touch (blue screen)
Hello all!
All of a sudden, my computer running on Windows XP doesn't recognize my iPod touch anymore. Changing the USB-Port and re-installing iTunes did not help. The actualization of the driver resulted in the system to recognize the iPod for a couple of seconds, but then the system crashed and a blue screen appeared, which made it necessary to restart the system. I had the same thing four times today now and have absoultely no idea what else I could do. Can anyone help?
Thank you in advance!
Message was edited by: globi_luI too just had my itouch completely crash. I was attempting to sync and a pop up asked about updating my itouch. I agreed. Only to get the frozen apple screen with the download bar. Now I can't even reset my itouch or get my computer to recognize my itouch. PLEASE HELP!!

Is my memory bad? Screen Freezes - Crashes
Hello, I have a macbook early 2008 or so... I bought it with 2GB, last year I bought 2 2GB memories from MacRam to upgrade my macbook and i am having issues with the memory, I think. I think was able to isolate the one that gives me issues, and I am not an expert. I ran AHT and REMBER and in both the memory appears good.
Does anyone know what could be causing this? When i send the ram back to MacRam, they will test the memory and most likely the memory will be returned back because the memory will pass the test too.
Any ideas of what could case this freeze/crash? Would this be a result of static?
The following screen freezes are happening:
andIf you take out the MacRam memory, and put back in the original memory, do you still have the problem? That would help isolate cause and effect.
When you ran the AHT did you run the extended test? -

System crash (blue screen) during CD burn
Hello All,
I need your advise due to serious problem with my PC. Per technical specification located in the following site CPU support: the motherboard supports 133/266 MHz FSB and Ratio 12.5.
Unfortunately, I found out that my recently purchased computer doesn’t work at such frequency(FSB=133, Ratio = 12.5), namely, all operation related to the DVD-ROM (Pioneer DVD-120) or Samsung CD-R/RW eventually caused system crash. I tryed to reinstall the OS, however it has not solved the problem. Only frequency decreasing allows to avoid the crash(blue screen of death). The proper volatages and temperature value are as follows: Vcore = 1.74V. PS_3v = 3.25V, PS_5v = 4.95V, PS_12v = 12.24V, Tcpu = 48C, Tsys = 33C.
Please advise,
Thanks, Raz Noam
Here is my configuration:
Athlon XP 2000+
KT4V MS6712 motherboard
256 Mb DDR 333 Smasung
40 Gb IDE master on IDE1
60 Gb IDE slave on IDE1
Samsung SW 248F master
Pioneer DVD-120 slave
Windows XP Home EditionSystem crash that I have experienced occurs only during CD Burner or DVD activities. It is very random, however I have notice that when I am burning CD (test mode only) the system crash occurs quite often. I attribute it to the fact that this mode is perhaps harder than only play. However, system crash occurs also during play mode. The crash is actualy stop mode with different error core, I mean, stop 0xd1, 0x0A, 24, 77. BTW, I dissabled autoreboot option. So far it was no problem with reboot after crash. So, I suspected some problem with mainboard, however, perhaps, that PSU can impcat as well. Unfortunately, I have no experience with PC hardware, therefore I need your advice based on rich experience. What I dare to assume that the problem rather in hardware than in SW.

K8N neo Platinum Win XP SP2 random system crashes/Blue screen
I have recently built a new pc with the items as listed in my signature. Some of the compontents were new (RAM, HDD and VIdeo) and some were second hand (CPU, M/B, Keyboard and Mouse). I found that when I install WIN XP the system seems ok. But after I install any SP1 or SP2 which are required to run the USB2.0 my system crashes randomly and I get a windows blue screen and an auto restart. in the last week it sometimes lasts a day or so then it crashes. Other times it will crash within 5 minutes of start-up. I found a forum topic about a similar problem the other day but when I went looking for it again I couldn't find that topic. In that topic there were comments about PSU's and their ability to run the K8N Neo Platinum. In my specs are my PSU details. Can anyone advise if my PSU may be the problem or if there is any other problem.
I have made a WIN XP boot disk with SP1 and I have an SP2 disk I was given by a PC shop. If you are able to help or need further info to be able to help please let me know.
Regards
