L355-S7905 intermittent hang up at start up

ok, I recently picked up a few L355's that needed work. I have the one pretty much finished, and have someone lined up that wants it. It just has one issue... it sometimes hangs up when windows is booting(Vista 32 bit, says "windows loading" with a bar scolling over it, that suddenly stops). I noticed this issue when I first started working on this computer, and it is the exact same symptoms that I was having with my original L355-S7905. In that instance, I upgraded from Vista 32 to Windows 7, and have not had the issue since.
I have since upgraded from the 585 celeron to a T9300, but the issue was happening prior to the upgrade, so I know that the new processor is not the issue. Other than this, the computer runs like a champ. It is going to someone that isn't computer savy, so I want to resolve the issue prior to giving it to them.
Specs:
L355-S7905
T9300 Core 2 Duo (originally 585 Celeron, issue present before swap)
GL40 Chipset
4GB RAM
160GB HDD
Any ideas?

No. I ended up doing a fresh install of vista, reloaded all of the toshiba software and drivers. I did all of the windows updates to get everything up to date. The issue still remains. I am guessing that the hardware has an issue with one of the numerous windows updates. I have someone who is eager to get this computer from me, but I don't want to turn it over to them until this issue is resolved. This is the same issue that I was having with my original L355-S7905, which was resolved by installing Windows 7(not an option in this case). I have a 3rd L355-S7905 that I have put together. It has a fresh hard drive in it, so I will be installing Vista on it when I get the chance. If the issue pops up on that computer as well, then I will be sure that it's an issue with the OS.
I'll report back as soon as I load and update the OS on the 3rd system.

Try to install windows 8.1 on Toshiba satellite l355-S7905

I have a toshiba satellite l355-S7905, and i am trying to load windows 8.1 and i get to installing Windows and i get a "load driver it states a media driver your computer needs is missing. This could be a DVD of usb or hard disk driver. if you have a CD dvd or usb flash drive with the driver on it pleas insert it not. The problem is that I do not have the driver. And I have tried to get them from toshiba support but I and not obtain them.

and is Your laptop is not on the list of compatible models for Windows 8.see list here - http://support.toshiba.com/support/viewContentDetail?contentId=3495677 your support page is here - http://support.toshiba.com/support/modelHome?freeText=2332136and does not show windows 8 drivers. The Intel Rapid Storage driver is needed for the new hard drives and may be what it is asking for.

Photoshop Elements 13 running in Windows 8.1 hangs immediately after starting

Photoshop Elements 13 running in Windows 8.1 hangs immediately after starting. Has to be shut down by Task Manger. Task Manger shows that it is still using some CPU. Ran Procmon (part of Sysinternals) which shows that it is in a loop. Stack trace shows it is executing code in AMTValidateProductLicense.dll. Started happening about a month after I installed PSE. Everything used to work fine at first. Have tried going back to an old image of Win 8.1 on a different hard drive, otherwise same computer, and installed PSE 13 from DVD. That installation never worked, it aways hangs. If I do a clean boot, it sometimes runs long enough for me to click on a menu item and then hangs the same way. And, yes I bought a new DVD to run on this computer, never been used in any other way. Any ideas how I can get PSE running properly?

It really doesn't look like a licensing issue, it seems to be code in the area of license validation that isn't working.
I took your suggestion and initiated a couple of chat sessions with support, but so far still no luck. The latest session with Neeraj seemed to be promising. After some investigation he asked to reinstall. First he uninstalled with Revo Uninstall, which seemed to be pretty thorough. That required a restart, so he set things up to restore his conference session and took my phone number. Unfortunately I guess his connection didn't come back. When I didn't hear from him after a couple of hours I tried installing Photoshop and Premiere myself. As before, Premiere works and Photoshop doesn't. When I start Photoshop, the window opens and for a couple of seconds menus open when I click on them. Then the window freezes and I have to use Task Manager to kill it. So basically, I've tried several things but I'm back where I've been all along, I can't get Photoshop to work. I'd really appreciate suggestions about something else to try.
I wish someone at Adobe was interested in the Process Monitor traces I've made, because I'm sure someone who knows the code would be able to figure out pretty quickly what's happening. Is it trying to read a file that's not there, failing to write a file, failing to make an internet connection or what? It really shouldn't be this hard to figure out.

L355-S7905 Satellite internal mic is not visible

For some reason I have lost my internal mic. The device manager does not list it. Any suggestions?

Satellite L355-S7905 Specifications
Satellite L355-S7905 Downloads
First, the internal mic will never appear in Device Manager, it's just a part of the Realtek internal sound card configuration. Right click on the speaker icon in your system tray at the bottom right of your screen, left click on 'Recording devices', if you can see the 'Microphone, Realtek High Def Audio' device, right click on that, if it is disabled left click on 'Enable', if you see 'Set as Default Device' left click on that. Now try your mic again.
If you do do not see the mic, or anything in 'Recording devices', right click on a blank part of its box, left click on 'Show Disabled Devices' and on 'Show Disconnected Devices', so that the check mark is on both of these. Try the above paragraph again.
If none of the above works, try a system reset. Power off the laptop, unplug the AC from the unit, remove the battery, press and hold down the power button for 30 seconds, replace the battery and AC, power on, as soon as you see the Toshiba logo, press the 'F2' key to enter the BIOS Setup, in setup press 'F9' to load setup defaults, press 'F10' to save and exit, and then boot into Windows, and see if the mic is working again.
If this doesn't work, we need the version of Windows you're using, like Windows 7 64bit edtion.
Please let us know what happens. Good luck.

Mountain lion download is very slow and in-between it hangs of and starts from beginning. Is there a solution i have already purchased it can i download a torrent and authorize it

Mountain lion download is very slow and in-between it hangs of and starts from beginning. Is there a solution I have already purchased it can I download a torrent and authorize it. Somebody pl. Help

Exactly. Some of us don't understand the situation in India. This is a country with sickest internet speeds. The internet segment is dominated by fraudulant companies. There is no consistency that is why most of the data transfer here is through Pen drives and torrent websites. We have never seen a good downlooad speed here. And on the top of inconsistency lies the Mac book Air without a built in RJ45 port.
If i have to do it in an internet cafe it will cost me more time and money than to purchase a Mac book air itself. Apple should start giving us software loaded flash drives at least at premium.

When the new version will correct the error 10.0.0? program constantly hangs. will not start!

Are you using any VST plug-ins or audio units? Then check, if they are still compatible. You may need to uninstall them.

SAP BW 640-----SAINT HANGS AFTER CLICKING START

Hi Everybody,
We are on stack 9 on the source BW 640. I am trying to take the stack to 22 as a prerequirement for unicode conversion, and the upgrade to BI 7.0.
In this regard there is a dependency on PI_BASIS to be on 2005, and BI_CONT to be on 353. Currently we are on PI_BASIS 2004, and BI_CONT 352 on the source.
We have extracted the appropriate installation packages for the above components. When we run SAINT to install these components, and click START it just hangs. It does not take me to the next window.
At least SAINT used to take me to the next window after clicking start, but one change I did was to update the kernel to 221, saint was still hanging after clicking start, again updated the kernel to 274 which is the latest release for NW 2004. I also have the latest version of R3Trans, and tp. SAINT still hangs after clicking start button. No logs are getting generated in \usr\sap\trans\log. No files are getting generated in \usr\sap\trans\tmp.
I restored the database to what it was before we initiated the SAINT process. Still SAINT hangs after clicking start button.
In STMS-overviewu2014system-sap system-all the checks work fine(connection, transport directory, transport tool). Likewise in SAINT-utilities-check-transport tool----every thing looks good.
Why is SAINT hanging after clicking start button, can we downgrade the kernel to what it was before (level 155).
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Ramesh Srinivasan.

Thank you so very,very much. We are currently using a 640 gui. We tested with 710 gui and saint after clicking start does not hang.
So we are assuming that 710 gui will solve the problem.
Thanks once again. A very timely help. You bet I'll touch base with you if I run into issues.

Ff 12 hangs up at starting process (windows xp)

ff 12 hangs up at starting process - it is nor possible to click on the ui

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

KDE 4.3 hangs system at start up

Hello. I'm testing Archlinux to see if it will one day replace my Debian installation.
Things were more or less fine during its short sporadic use, until I upgraded the system and KDE 4.3.0-6 was installed. During start up (startx), it hanged.
Today I tried another "pacman -Syu", and saw KDE 4.3.1 was available. It still hangs in the same way and place. The progress bar says that Akonadi is starting up.
Deleting the KDE configuration files at $HOME does nothing. The blinking caps lock and scroll lock make me think its a kernel panic related problem.
Information from the log files does not seem helpful (I'm posting several because I'm not sure where to look):

x.org runs fine with other window managers. Does anyone have any idea where I could look next for an explanation?
Thank you.

I have the same pb since upgrade KDE from 4.2 to 4.3.
I use Arch with OpenBox at home at KDE at work. Everything was fine for years. I started having pbs with xorg about one year ago, with X hanging sporadically at start, or aften a random number of switches between consoles using CTR-ALT-Fn. I rarely starts X since I hibernate rather than halt computers, so this circumvents the pb.
Now after last upgrade (pacman -Suy) KDE 4.3 hangs, so that for the time being I use OpenBox also at home. Actually KDE starts and the mouse pointer is activated, but I get no taskbar and no response from mouse clicks, it hangs with a blank screen (white at work, black at home...).
Here is the error output from startx (KDE having being killed with CTRL-C). Errors from xorg are also present with other window managers, but they don't hang the system.

Intermittent Blinking Question Mark at Start-Up

I've read a number of postings about the blinking question mark problem during start-up, but this one is different -- its intermittent. By that I mean that sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't. Here is the chronology:
- Student comes home for Spring Break and requests me to connect her to our wireless network.
- I enter network name and PW. It gets connected, but the spinning rainbow wheel won't stop spinning. So eventually I re-start --> first time I've ever seen the blinking question mark. System won't start on multiple tries. Student says 'yeah, that's been happening for a while. Just wait a while and it will be OK.' I've never seen an intermittent problem like this.
- Took iBook to the Genius Bar at local Apple Store
- Genius gets it to start up on first try, amazing me. He didn't do any trick, just pushed the power button. But he did plug the AC adapter in as he was trying to boot it. (more on this later) How can this be??
- Genius does some kind of test on the Hard Drive and pronounces it OK. Says problem must be software-related.
- I mention that Student didn't bring home her 10.3.X Disk Utilities/Restore disk.
- I mention I've got 10.4 Family Pack, but haven't had time to load it on any of our Macs. Genius recommends doing Archive Install, then use 10.4 disk to run Disk Utilities to check Permissions etc.
- I load 10.4 and then run Disk Utilities. The start-up disk is already properly identified, no need to re-select the internal HD Sys X. But sure enough, some of the Permissions needed repair and were fixed. Problem seems solved, system runs fine for 3 days.
- Student goes back to college. Today she reports that the blinking question mark is back, but now she can't run Disk Utilities because I still have the 10.4 disk at home, and her 10.3 disk won't work anymore.
I should also mention: Student has been having short battery re-charge life. Checked the Apple Website and realized that her battery S/N is covered under the free replacement program. Today she received the new battery and installed it, and then when she re-started, that's when the blinking question mark showed up again. Could there be a connection between the power supply and the blinking question mark?
What to do? Any ideas welcomed. Student wants new computer, I say not so fast.....
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Assuming that you get the flashing question mark for extended periods of time (i.e. not just one or two flashes and then it boots), and repeatedly (i.e. it takes several power cycles to boot the system), I'd recommend a couple of steps:
1) Run the Disk Utility -> Repair Disk option while booted off CD. This will check and repair common disk problems that can cause this kind of issue
2) Reset the parameter RAM (PRAM) to reset the system settings (Command-Option-P-R as you power on)
3) When this happens, hold down the option key as you power up the system. this will offer a list of available boot drives. Check that your boot drive is available.
4) If all else fails, backup - soon, and be prepared to replace the hard drive. This might sound drastic but I'd had a number of laptops die through failed drives. This option is especially true if you're experiencing other unexplained problems such as hangs and crashes while running the machine.

T500 - Intermittent Boot Hang and not able to Reboot

Hey folks. I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T500 (2242-35U) here that is having a bit of trouble.
First off, its very intermittent to get it to boot. When I press the power button to start it, it goes through its regular post, and then right before it should start booting off of the hard drive or dvd drive, it hangs with just the blinking cursor. Trying different boot media like a hard drive, bootable cd/dvd disk or even a bootable usb stick all result in the same.
However, once every 5-6 times, I get lucky and it starts to boot. Once I was finally able to boot off of a bootable diagnostic cd, I ran hardware checks, and it appears that everything checks out.
Another issue with it is that it doesn't do a reboot properly. No matter if i'm into the operating system doing a Restart option, or at the boot hang mentioned above, pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete, the screen goes blank and it stays there until I forcefully power off and power back on. Even during my install of the operating system, when the setup reboots several times, i've had to forcefully power it off, and then try numerous times to get it to boot back up again.
I just installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 x86 enterprise, and updated the bios to its latest version, doesn't appear to change anything.
The unit is currently out of warranty. Is there anything else I can try with this? I am an authorized service provider for Lenovo, I just don't know where to go to from here, and any suggestions would be welcome.
Thank you.

Alright, got a chance to test it more over the weekend...
- I went into the BIOS, and disabled everything I could find. Even went as far as pulling the hard drive back out again and the optical drive, and tried booting from a USB stick. Exact same issue, took a bunch of tries for it to finally boot.
- Enabled just the essential stuff I would need on the laptop, same issue
- I don't see any mention of Turbo Memory in the BIOS or product page for this model, so I will assume that it does not have it.
I guess the problem is something with the motherboard. But, at over a couple hundred dollars, I don't think its really worth the money to replace it at this point seeing that the notebook is still completely usable, once it boots .
Thank you all for your help and suggestions either way.

J2EE engine hangs on status Starting Apps

Hi All
We are currently experiencing issues with our J2EE engine. When we start it, it goes up to the status Starting Apps and never leaves that status. There are no errors on any of the logs/traces under work directory or the server0/log directory.
We are running EP 700 with Kernel Patch 146 on windows 2003 server. If anyone has seen this type of issue, please advice.
I have attached a java dump from std-server0.out file. I hope that helps

Whenever there is a hang or slow performance situation in j2ee engine, one needs to take a few threaddumps on the server and dispatcher processes. In case of 'Startng applications' hang situation, take 5 threaddumps at an interval of 1 minute each. The threaddumps are directed to std_Server0.out file. Please open this file with the Angel's threaddump viewer (SAP Note 1044373, 1020246). You could check for the blocked threads (which hang the engine), runnable threads in the same state over the course of theaddudmp (making system slow), the no. of free application threads - if 0, it means the engine has run out of applicaiton threads. Configure MaxThreadCount of ApplicationThreadMananger for server to 250+ (mostly required by most of the applications, some XI apps need over 350).
Last but not the least, one should also check garbage collection logs. Multiple back to back GCs could slow down the system. In this case, check if the JVM parameters are maintained as per note 723909.
If you are seeing high CPU usage on the system during the hang/slow performance, refer to note 742395.
Hope the above helps.

AE CS5 Hanging up on start up

I have a reoccuring problem with AE hanging up on startup. It seems to stop right when the program is going through the various folders that it is scanning and freezes up right when it gets to "Scanning Folder: 32_64bit". I have installed the Mac OS X 10.6.4 combo updater with no real improvement in it being able to get through start up. I did have a bit of luck when starting the program directly after I started Premier as an experiment when it opened in a snap. I am running it on a Mac 2 x3 GHz Dual Core Intel Xeon with 5 gigs of memory and as previously mentioned OS X 10.6.4. I have no firewalls running. Any suggestions?

No real idea, but this part here
I did have a bit of luck when starting the program directly after I started Premier as an experiment when it opened in a snap.
Would suggest the MediaCore or one of the services is busted. Since it works in Premiere, there may be a permission or other issue somewhere. Anyway, I would simply try to reinstall everything now that the update has been applied, but only after running the CS5 Clean Script/ Utility and manualyl deleting al linstalled files. Also run tools like OnyX to check your system status and fix potential problems.

FCP 'hangs' during app start-up

Hey all,
I had a similar post earlier this week but now the SBBOD is happening during Final Cut's boot up. To be exact, it hangs right after it doesn't 'see' my DVCAM deck. Although I've tried starting FCP with and without the deck on...it still just sits...with the spinning beach ball.
Anyone have/had this issue?
Restarting the computer seems to fix it but there's obviously a problem somewhere.
And here are my system's stats: OSX 10.5.6, FCP 6.0.5, & QT 7.5.5
Thanks,
Tom

Trashed preferences?
Yes
Run Disk Utility?
Yes*
Any recent software updates?
Nope
Tried creating a new user account and opeing FCP from there?
Not yet...but don't think that'll help...but will try that.
Checked the problem projects for CMYK graphics or file/graphic/render corruption?
I was one of the original responders that figured out the CMYK issues when they first arose
Have you recently done a major OS upgrade? If so, did you do a clean archive/wipe/install?...or did you use Migration Assistant? I don't believe clean system os installs are ever the answer...especially when issues come up out of the blue.
No
*I think it's still a hard drive issue (using an external FW drive) even though disk utility says everything's fine.
