Portege M700 crashes after upgrading to Windows 7 32bit

Dear All,
My portege M700 laptop has for the most part performed reliably.
However, it used to be very sluggish resuming from sleep after a few wake-sleep iterations, taking >5min.
I have now installed Windows 7 32-bit, which is working very well. There are no longer any problems with resuming from sleep. However, about 1-2 times per day now I get a message that Explorer has crashed and must restart. About once per week, the system locks up entirely with a windows blue screen (kernel fault). Most times, in the few seconds around the time the screen freezes, I hear the fan switch on at full speed (much faster than it ever normally runs) and the case becomes quite warm.
I have installed the latest Windows 7 32-bit drivers from the Toshiba UK website.
Can anyone help me diagnose the cause of these crashes?
Many thanks,
Chris.

I changed the windows 7 power management settings for the fan to "keep coolest". In normal use, I can feel a slow slightly warm airflow. There's no fluff. All that looks fine.
My suspicion is that something is making the kernel go into a loop (I suspect a driver fault) and that this makes the CPU get hot, and the fan kicks in as it should...
Any other ideas for some specific diagnostic tests to try would be appreciated. The Toshiba "PC Diagnostics" tool passes everything except the network which reports as follows:
[Diagnostic Results]
NETWORK TEST (1) DONE PASS (Intel(R) 82566MM Gigabit Network Connection)
NETWORK TEST (2) DONE PASS (Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN)
NETWORK TEST (3) DONE FAIL (Cisco AnyConnect VPN Virtual Miniport Adapter for Windows)
NETWORK TEST (4) DONE PASS (VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter)
NETWORK TEST (5) DONE FAIL (Shrew Soft Virtual Adapter)

Hp notebook crashes after upgrading to windows 10

After upgrade to windows 10, my notebook became blank.I had to switch off by hard reset on by power button. After sometime I started it took a long time about half an hour but windows 10 started. When I shut down, not book shuts down properly but power button reamins ON / lighted. Moreover sometimes windows starts normally... sometimes it remains blank after asking password. Pl. advise a solution...... Regards, Pawan

I'm having the same problems. I did update the driverrs for the HD Graphics and it now powers off when I shut it down. It still will not come out of sleep mode though and I can not disable the touchpad when using a mouse. Everything was running fine until it updated to Windows 10.

Am running Firefox 3.6.10. Am having problems with Firefox crashing after upgrading to Kaspersky Internet Security 2011. Anyone else having same problem. Oh, BTW am still using Windows XP operating system.

Go to get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download and install flash player.

My computer crashes repeatedly and I get the message pages are not responding do you want to stop, and/or shockwave is not responding do you want to stop. I have Windows XP Service Pack 3, I am having the same issues whether I use Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox. My HP Pavilion Desktop has 504 MB of Ram and I am using high speed internet connection. Because it was crashing so much, I used the uninstall program for Flash player to uninstall Flash, I checked my registry and removed anything I saw that was Flash. I then uninstalled Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, then I reinstalled the most recent versions from their websites. I did the same for FlashPlayer and Shockwave Flash. I went to the Adobe website and had them check to see if it was working and it shows I have FlashPlayer 10.3.181.36. The page that shows which version of flash player goes with Windows XP states that I should have 10.3.181.34 (This is what I thought I had before I updated, I was having the same problems). When I went into my computer to see what version I have, it shows 11.5.9.620 Activex and both Flash Player and Flash Player Object is listed as 10.3.181.34. My firewall for Windows is set to medium. I also am running Norton Internet Security. It takes anywhere from 3-6minutes for some of my games to load, and I have to refresh at least 3-4 times in order to play. When I do start to play it freezes frequently and I use escape to free it up. This has been going on for a month. I have no idea what to do. I am not very computer savy and I have been learning as I go.

USB device keeps disconnecting/connecting after upgrading to Windows 8.1

I have a device(Pedal for Sim Racing) connected via USB, everything is working fine in Windows 7 and 8 but after upgrading my machine to Windows 8.1 the device keeps disconnecting and connecting for like every 2 seconds. But after I open the Property Sheet
in Game Controllers panel the disconnection issue was gone, if I reconnect the device the issue persist. Other people who have similar device also encounters the same issue after upgrading to windows 8.1. The issue persist with or without the device driver
installed.
Any idea, what might cause this?
Best regards
mark

I'v got this exact same problem with my Win 7 desktop. I've also got pedals and wheel but don't see it as different than all the other USB devices. I'm using a bunch of USB, but no hubs, including 3 external storage hard drives. But the momentary
disconnect appears in all devices as best as i can see..even my long time trouble free head phones..keyboard..and all. Sometimes the sound goes away and if I unplug and replug them the sound comes back, and other times I have to exit and re enter the
game. I also get video crashes ..maybe not related.IDK..and have to restart all, because I've got three black screens in Eyefinity. For years my system was trouble free and its just slowly started getting worse. I've thought it had to do with system "sleep"
etc but long ago went to never sleep max performance etc..Makes no difference. Keep thinking its my hardware or my house wiring etc..But can't seem to solve it. I replaced my Mobo/chip/ram maybe 6 months ago and that appears to have not helped. It seems
to be getting worse. I hate to start replacing parts piece by piece..cost a lot of money and sometimes doesn't help.
When I'm playing a game I can often hear "faint" sound of USB connect disconnect happening with regularity..that little bing/boink sound etc..So it must just be constantly happening...Seems weird. Didn't have anything like this happening years
ago with pretty much the same hardware and same Win7 with the continuing updates etc.
What can be causing this common problem?

Various programs crash after upgrade to 10.6.4

Various programs crash after upgrade to 10.6.4 but only late in the day / evening. There seem to be no crashes early in the day.
After a reboot the problem is fixed and things seem to work OK.
Might this be some kind of memory-related issues?? Programs not releasing memory until eventually there's nothing left?
I'm a Windows guy until recently so am not up to speed with Mac software / hardware yet.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hi, I am facing major instability in MS Office for Mac 2008 after the 10.6.4 upgrade. Programs (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), just crash randomly. Mostly when opening existing Office documents but there is no fixed pattern.
Tried Office auto update but no joy.
Any suggestions

Many of my Apps are now crashing after upgrading my iPad 1 to OS 5. What's up?

Free memory. You are probably getting crashes becasue you have too much stuff floating sround in memory. Double tap the home button to see the task bar. Touch and hold any of those icons until they jiggle, then delete them all by touching the minus sign.
Do this every day, or more oftern if needed to keep the system freed up. If you are using safari a lot, make sure to fully close some of the windows by touch the x on the tabs. Each window uses some active memory.
From time to time, do a full reboot by holding the sleep and home button until the apple logo appears. Ignore the red slider. This also frees up some system resources.
The iOS system is supposed to do this for you, but since the intro of ios 5 there are a fair number of folks crashing.

Cannot print a PDF file after upgrading to Windows 8.1

Cannot print a PDF file after upgrading to Windows 8.1
I can print anything else from either the Desktop or Start but not a PDF. No error message but just does not print.
Update: down loaded Adobe Reader which runs on the desktop so when I read a PDF file it now runs on the desktop and I can print it.

After upgrading to windows 8, spectre 14 usb3 slow

are there any usb3 fast drivers for spectre 14 after upgrading to windows 8, the drivers of windows 7 there are not compatible with windows 8

Hello rumbacha. I understand you're trying to locate some drivers for your SPECTRE for Windows 8.
There are quite a few versions of the SPECTRE so I will need your product number to identify exactly which model you have. This document can show you where the product number is located.
Once I have this I will attempt to locate the drivers for you.
Have an excellent day!

After upgrading to Windows 8.1 firefox longer works. I got it to load but screen is either blank or doesn't go to target address

after upgrading to Windows 8.1 from 8 nothing works correctly. Firefox 1st received 'unable to load XPcom' After resetting and uninstalling several times Firefox now loads to either a support screen or blank screen. It accepts address input but doesn't execute to target. So far I have been unable to roll back upgrade.
Although IE11 works, it doesn't work correctly.

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) 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.

If you keep having problems then do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 24: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

Keyboard wireless key not working after upgrading to windows 8.1

Hello,
I am having hp pavilion dv6-6165tx notebook, where keyboard having a wireless button that turns ON and OFF all wireless devices, After upgrading to windows 8.1, HP Connection Manager is not getting installed, as well as Key is not working, key color turns red and white but no action is performed.
Kindly suggest me some solution.
Note: HP Doesn't provide drivers for windows 8/8.1 ONLY WINDOWS 7 for hp pavilion dv6-6165tx.
Thanks.

Hi @Jayesh_Bhadja ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion dv6-6165tx Notebook and the Wireless keyboard not working correctly. Here is a link to troubleshoot the keyboard.
The HP Connection Manager is something that is for Windows 7 not Windows 8.1. I would uninstall this from your Notebook. Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system that need updating. It has a troubleshooting tool in this.
Make sure all your updates have been completed. I would try restarting my Notebook a few times.
If that does not help I would uninstall the keyboard from the Device manager.
Thanks.

Ethernet LAN not working after upgrading to windows 8.1

After upgrading from Windows 8 to 8.1, my Ethernet LAN is no longer working. Wireless LAN connectivity is OK. I have run the HP Support Assistant and downloaded the drivers for 8.1. Hovever, I do not see a 8.1 driver listed for the Ethernet LAN.

You're very welcome. See if the recovery manager still works so you can roll back to W8. Please read this guide for how to use it. http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03489643 If it doesn't then you will have to order a set of recovery disks from HP, or you can install this plain W8 OEM software this guy has posted on a link. Lots of folks have used it successfully, which is why I posted it. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0W9PBigPy94aVJWSndyTFNFMzg/edit?pli=1 Then use this tool to make the iso file bootable to a DVD or 4+ GB USB flash drive. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/windows-usb-dvd-download-tool Yes, that really stinks why you and I could not upgrade without an issue. I disabled about 5 or 6 devices in the device manager and the code 12 would not go away. I have no clue why the PC works fine on W8 but not on W8.1. My notebook is a few years older than yours and it worked fine on W8.1 but not on W10. Go figure...

Wifi problem of G560 after upgrading to windows 8.1

Hi,
I have a lenovo G560. After upgrading from windows 8 to windows 8.1, I cannot connect to wifi. I was wondering if someon else has the same problem.

hi amardoukhi,
Welcome to the Forums.
Your issue might be similar to this thread. Try the solution that was posted to rollback to an older driver version.
The solution was to:
1. Open Device Manager (press WInkey+R > type devmgmt.msc)
2. On the Device Manager, navigate to Network Adapters > right click on the wireless adapter and choose Update Driver Software
   - Link to picture
3. On the Driver Update Window, choose Browse my computer for driver software > Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer and choose the wireless card on the list.
