Re: Problems in my new laptop A200-27Z

Hi,
I bought this laptop on 4th July. The laptop is running on Vista basic Operating system. There are few problems for which I am in need of solutions:
1. When I run Skype to talk to my family, I face lot of problems hearing them and viewing them and I even hear that there is a problem for the reciever saying that they hear an echo or repitation in my voice and they too can't view me.
2. The cursor runs here and there when I start typing and it is really irritating to delete and retype agian and agian...
3. When I open 2 programs, even the internet goes slow and and other parallel programs won't open.. The laptop is equipped with 3GB RAM but the performance is very bad when the speed is concerned..
4. Is there an infinite movement of the knob which is provided for volume control.. pls. confirm.
5. Sometimes the camera gets stuck.. Don't know whether it is a software problem or hardware problem.
6. When I turn to burn a CD, it asks me to switch on power source.. Won't the laptop burn the CD without power source?
7. I hear Kat kat noise when the CD burn in process. Also it takes lot of time compared to other laptops for burning a CD..
Overall I am not happy with this laptop.
Looking forward for solutions... Pls. help
Regards
Kiran

Quite a long list you have here, pal ;)
Ok, let's see.
1. This can normally be fixed be installing the Vista service pack 1, as this solves problems with web cam.
2. Not a real problem here, but when typing you may hit accidentally the touch pad, which puts the cursor all over the screen. Just turn it off when writing using FN+F9 key combination.
3. Speed depends on wether it runs on battery or AC. And , back to number 1, SP1 improves performance.
4. Don't know what you mean by that, but there is no "end" where the hardware volume control stopps. This is normal.
5. Install SP1 ;)
6. You should be able to create CDs even running on battery, as I do that too, but it is just a hint, that when battery level is low or critical might cause errors with CD
7. Ok, those noises don't know. I have some noises too, but these are normal and burning speed always depends on how much data is put on disc, speed settings of program and what media you use, CD, DVD or double layer DVD.
So I think this should cover must of your questions.

  • Multiple Problems Involving my new laptop [Keyboard][wireless mouse][application issues]

    My laptop only gives me the following information on the stickers:
    Lenovo G580
    Model NO: 20157
    I received a laptop from my dad and the more I use it the more stuff i seem to run into.
    The first problem i noticed was that two of my arrow keys would not work on my keyboard and I need those keys to play a couple of low-end games that i like.
    Next i noticed that my wireless mouse would act weird when I attempted to use it. It would constantly double-click when i only clicked once and i have replaced the batteries multiple times. It only happens on this computer.
    Another problem is that i have the desktop version of skype installed. Sometimes it crashes and refuses to close. I've tried task manager and the command line. When I use "taskkill /F /IM skype.exe" it tells me i do not have permission even when i launched command line as administrator.
    After using Windows 8 for a few months,i really hate it. I absolutely cannot stand the new operating system. I gave it a try and if i have to live with it for much longer I will go insane.
    I have tried to install Ubuntu but the disk refuses to load. Im sure it has something to do with secure boot, but the option to disable it is greyed out and im unable to change it.
    Anyone who can help me with any of these issues would be awesome.

  • C55D-B5310 At least 3 problems with brand new laptop, now fed up.

    I bought the wife a new C55D-B5310 from Best Buy on the 5th of January, and am now ready to take it back (even though I'm outside the 14/15 day return policy.   I bought it for my wife but had nothing but problems with it.
    First, there was the green videos, totally green and just sound.  No amount of windows updates solved that, I had to download a third party codec pack in order to get it to work.  I had noticed this on the display model as well, and ignored it at the time (silly me).
    Second there was the constantly dropping wi-fi connection.   A search on here and an updated driver + disabling the power save feature for the adaptor has seemingly resolved that.  (but frankly why should I have to disable a power saving feature just to get it to not be 'limited connectivity').
    Then last night I noticed the touch pad was playing up and was stopping responding, disappearing, or simply not being responsive.   At this point after three problems, I'm fed up with this.  A user should not have to get things working that should be working from the factory.   The laptop also seems to freeze at times or be unresponsive in general.
    I'm an experienced I.T. professional, but this was for my wife, and she is also now fed up with it, and now just uses her phone instead, as it's such a pain to use.  Seriously... where was the product testing on this model.  These are such basic things to get right.
    On a side note, I just also bought another (alternative brand) laptop for myself.  It works beautifully.  No connection issues, the touch pad just works, the machine doesn't freeze whilst it's thinking about stuff.  The Toshiba should work model should work just like this.
    I'm now worried I'll be stuck with this pain in the butt laptop, even though it's not fit for purpose.

    I actually bought an HP laptop for $150 from a sample store (i3, 6GB, 750GB HDD, touchscreen)  It works flawlessly unlike the totally non-QA'd Toshiba.  My wife loves the new machine, and without me prompting her, she simply said that it just works, and does everything she wants.  (Obviously this machine is in at least $200+ extra dollar price bracket compared to the $300 dollar Toshiba however, so don't read into this too much).
    I have heard a lot of the UK guys saying that Toshiba's quality has dropped through the floor, with the same sort of problems as I mentioned (plus others).
    Sorry Tosh, but you really need to get your act together with your budget range.  There is absolutely no reason why this machine should have performed so badly, and had at least 3 faults right out of the box.
    I was seriously considering keeping the C55D for myself to use, but after spending a short time with it, it was clearly trash.

  • I have a problem with Downloads, firefox does not recongise the .doc format despite me having word 2007 loaded only a problem since a new laptop, and windows 7 professional, any ideas?

    When Trying to download a word file I get this error message: " *.doc could not be opened, becasue the associated helper application does not exist change the association in your prefernces. " Have checked preferences, and IE opens up the file pointing to something wrong with firefox.

    I should have explained further. The game opens in a new window over to the upper left of my screen, leaving the original page underneath. I tried minimizing it so that I could get to my toolbar and did the View > Zoom > Reset. This has no effect. The lower portion of the game is still not showing. Using other browsers the window or frame of the game is much larger, therefore everything shows.

  • Slow connection speed on new laptop - BT Hub3

    Hello,
    i recently bought a new laptop and since i started using the internet on it I have some speed problems. I explain below.
    My laptop is new (samsung with windows 7 home premium SP1 64-bit version), i bought it about a month ago and after using it, sometimes I noticed a slow internet connection. Sometimes it got very slow and the pages couldn't be loaded. On a few occasions my connection gets lost for seconds but that doesn't happen to my other old laptops!
    I also have 2 other laptops with no connection problems and tried to see what could be the problem.
    My wireless router is BT hub3 and seems to be OK and gives to the old 2 laptops its maximum speed about 6-7 mbs.
    I then compared the three laptops' settings and what I observed was that my new laptop had a low speed at the connection status window (control panel > netw. & internet > netw. & sharing center > connection status), when i click on the name of my connection and check its status i find that: the speed is usually 18-24 Mbps. It also fluctuates over time, sometimes it gets up to 54 mbps other times down to 11 mbps. I found really strange that my 2 old laptops have a stable speed of 54 mbps when i check the same connection status. With the new laptop my internet doesnt get its maximum speed, when the laptop's speed is down to 18 mbps I run an online speedtest and get 4-5 Mbps instead of 6-7 with the 54 mbps, as the old 2 laptops do.
     I used to have connection problems with my old router (BT Hub2) some time ago, so I know about removing any other interference (currently i have no tv on, the microwave is not near the router, i use the least busy wireless channel and tried to place the laptop near the router but it's not much better).
    Something else to notice is that I get the same problem when my new laptop is the only one working, with the other two the old ones being switched off. I haven't checked that several times, it might be worse when the new laptop is working along with one of the old ones but i don't really think that matters.
    My new laptop uses a network adapter Broadcom 802.11n and the old 2 laptops have an Atheros AR5007EG. At another online forum I asked the same question they told me to try and change the radio type of my router to b/g instead of b/g/n, as the new laptop could be trying to connect on n speed but gets affected by the old ones who connect to the b/g type. I am not sure that could help as my laptop is brand new and should be compatible to the bt hub3 router using the new 802.11n system.
    Can someone give some help with my problem? Even if i can't solve the problem I would like to have a feeling of the problem being a laptop problem or just incompatibility of my laptop to the router?? If it's a laptop problem I should consider asking for a replacement or repair.
    Thanks very much for any help!

    thanks for the answer, coming back to my problem...
    I have tried switching to 802.11b/g, i see some improvement but this is happening occasionally. my speed is up to 5 mbs when my old laptops have the proper 7 mbs speed.
    what is still happening is my connection status speed on my laptop shows 54 mbps for some time and then drops to 18 mbps. it also generally fluctuates and is not stable at 54 mbps as with my old laptops. when it's down to 18 mbps the speedtest result is 5 mbs. my old laptops (which are older technology after all..) always get to the 7mbs speed which is what I pay for.
    i am not sure what the connetion status speed on my laptop should be, why it is not stable as with my old laptops and why I am not getting a stable proper speed of 7 mbs with my new laptop. could it be a hardware issue? What other possible reasons for that problem could be? as I said above no other devices are near my router and I use the inssider software to find the less busy channel.

  • Can I return my new laptop to lenovo because of its quality problem?

    IBM is one of the best brand as I know, especially showing us not only high quality of products but the service.
    But now one thing happened to me, if I don't have this case I can't believe. I found there is something with the laptop(T61 Model 7658CTO) the same day when I got the new laptop on June 3rd, 2008. Then I call 800, a lot of 800 calls,at last I were told that I should contact send it back first if I were to get another new one. Three days later I got the box sent by Lenovo, and I return it back in terms of what the paper shown.
    Unfortunately the problems of the laptop still exist when I turn on my laptop after it repaired. What's wrong with my laptop, this is new one, I think IBM should provide high quality products.
    I don't know how to describe the weird sound , it sounds like two or more micphone opened clost to each other. It is very harsh.
    I want to get one new laptop from Lenovo because of the quality of product and customer service or can I return the laptop?
    I would appreciate any advice you can give me.

    Like Obama says... yes you can
    I did it last week because I bought an iPhone 4 as a wedding gift but then I changed my mind and wanted an iPad, so the bride could use it together with the groom (while the phone is personal).
    I returned the iPhone to the apple store and I paid the difference to buy the 32GB iPad, no problems
    I didn't opened the case, but the guy at the apple store told me I could have returned the phone even if it was opened. It must be undamaged tough.

  • I cant get itunes on my new laptop.  My laptop says I have to remove itunes from another computer as I can only have it on 5.  Problem is that apart from my ipad, I no longer have the others as they were either broken beyond repair or lost.  Any ideas?

    I am not good with computers.  I am trying to get my iTunes onto this new laptop but it says I am only allowed to have it on 5 computers and I must take it off one to ut it on this new laptop.  Problem is, apart from my iPad, I have lost one laptop and two have been broken beyond repair so I am unable to take it off!  Anyone any ideas?  I have tried to get iTunes support but cant get past the "date of purchase" as I can only guess when I bought my ipod (2009)

    Hang on...
    You can only authorise the songs you purchase from the iTunes Store to play on five computers.
    You can download and install iTunes (the iTunes programme) onto as many computers as you wish.
    Two different things.
    Assuming therefore, that your problem is that you have authorised five computers, but now no longer have some of them, you need to de-authorise all your computers and then re-authorise the computers you still have.
    To de-authorise your computers, go to your account in the iTunes Store and look for the Deauthorise All button.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • My itunes wont auto sync my iphone 4 after i connect it to itunes. But it can auto sync when i connect it to my old laptop. what's the problem that it can't auto sync and when i did a backup in my new laptop, it was corrupted the next day.

    But it can auto sync when i connect it to my old laptop. what's the problem that it can't auto sync and when i did a backup in my new laptop, it was corrupted the next day and i was forced to use back a backup which i did in my old laptop 4 months ago. do i have to reinstall the itunes? will my backups be corrupted after i sync again? pls guide.
    P.S/ its the latest version of the itunes whenever i did the backups.

    iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup? 

  • I just bought a new MacBook Pro.  I managed to transfer everything to the new laptop.  BUT I'm having some real problems--e.g., wg from my older one to the new one.  Both use the same latest version of Snow Leopard.  My new laptop has the newer track pad.

    I just bought a new MacBook Pro.  I managed to transfer everything from my older MacBook Pro to the new one.  Both use Snow Leopard, the latest update.
    My new one has the newest trackpad, the old one, no.
    I'm have big problems using Text Edit on the new laptop--the curser does not go where I want it to go for editing, I cannot get the text to be a clear or as large
    as with the older Laptop.  Similarly, I cannot find a way to enlarge the menu bar.  But the text edit is my biggest problem right now.  I have reviewed all the preferences, particularly those in Universal Access, to no avail.
    I finally gave up, used dropbox to send the text edit document to my old laptop, and continued with ease.  But this is not the way it should work.  I bought the
    new laptop because the old one is showing signs of age.....
    Is there something wrong with Text Edit while using the new trackpad? 

    Thanks, Sig.
    The old computer is a 2.6 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
    The new one is a 2.3 GHz intel core i7
    In going over this, thanks to "tallking it out" with you, I did discover the Text Edit problem.  Because I've still been unable to get the new computer text size (fonts or whatever) to match the old computer, I did not notice that the curser is now different--the line midway down the curser has to be placed on the line I am working upon, otherwise the edits go elsewhere on the page.  Now, with a bit of difficulty, I am able to get Text Edit to work correctly.
    If you have any ideas as to why my menu bar and Text Edit type are still so slow, I'd love to have them. 
    (I went through the process you suggested earlier, re my Trackpad preferences, and found no improvement.)

  • I have a new laptop so I download again iTunes...the problem here is that I just got a cd and I tried to put it on my iPod and it won't let me, how can I fix this?

    I have a new laptop so I download again iTunes...the problem here is that I just got a cd and I tried to put it on my iPod and it won't let me, how can I fix this?

    The iPod sees the new computer as a new iTunes library. You can only sync with one iTunes library.  However, you can manage music among disfferent computers.  See:

  • My ipod cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in the itunes library(additional 2.35GB required) but it shows 5.85GB free space,  there was no problem until i got a new laptop.
