Refreshed laptop with Win 8.1 DVD - Freezing Problems

I had freezing problems on my Toshiba and decided to refresh it with full windows 8.1 DVD I purchased separately,
Toshiba initially had Vista. I bought upgraded to Win 8 pro 64 and then to 8.1 pro 64
Toshiba didn't provide any restoration discs or anything. Windows 8 refresh wouldn't work, said was missing files and wouldn't accept my Win 8 upgrade downloaded file as a refresh media source. So I went out and bought Win 8.1.
Refreshed fine without freezing , it deleted every single program on my computer , only left files.
Now I have 0 programs on my toshiba that still freezes. any help appreciated. 
my computer specs.
Toshiba (P500-ST5801) - 64 bit 
Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor P7350
ATI® Mobility Radeon™ HD 4650
2302MB total: 1GB DDR discrete memory + up to 1278MB shared memory w/ATI HyperMemory™ technology

There are no drivers for your lappy with windows 8 at all,  yes you would get crashes. You can try a bios update, but its to old to even try.

  • I have an iPod Touch 3rd gen and while it is recognized by my laptop with Win 8.1, it won't sync with iTunes.

    I have an iPod Touch 3rd gen and while it is recognized by my laptop with Win 8.1, it won't sync with iTunes.  It worked fine while my laptop had Win 8 but after the update, it quit syncing.  Strange though, I downloaded an app directly to my iPod and when I connected it to my laptop again (for recharging if nothing else), iTunes updated itself by including the new app.  I also tried syncing wirelessly.  Also unsuccessful.  I'm about ready to change to an alternate to iTunes if I can't get this situation fixed.  Anyone else have this problem and/or a solution?

  • I use FF 20.0.1. How can I move my Favories and settings fron a laptop with Win 7 to a new laptop with Win 8. I can't find appdata on the Win 8 PC 8

    I want to use Firefox on my Win 8 desktop. i want to move my favorites, settings and add-ons to a new Win8 laptop from my old Win 7 machine. I know how to do it with Win 7 machines by moving my profile. I can't find appdata on the Win 8 PC to move the profile to.
    I will also want to do the same with Thunderbird.

    The easiest way is to use Sync.
    You can find it in Tools / Options.
    You'll always have settins, bookmarks, saved passwords, history synced between you computers (and Android devices).

  • How to install and migrate info to a new laptop with Win 8

    I got a laptop a few days ago with Win 8.... I am totally lost. I installed FF and it shows on my desktop :)
    Now I need to transfer all my data there. I created a new profile in the desktop (Win 7) in case... Then what???
    I don't know where to find the info I am familiar with. I use FF 22.
    Can you please help me (again!)?
    I will have to do the same from an old laptop (Win XP) to the new one.
    Thank you very much

    Hi JenL27, the Profile Manager lets you see ALL your currently existing Firefox profiles and choose the one you want to use.
    Start the profile manager again, select your original profile, and start Firefox using that one. It will be a lot easier to work with your data that way.
    IMPORTANT: Do not delete any profiles without making good backups.

  • Downloading installer works, but installation does not. Nothing happens. New laptop with Win 7 (no earlier Firefox version) & Norton Anti-virus. 3rd Firefox

    When I click button to install now, it only restarts the EZ download installer again. I've gone through the process at least 15 times now. I installed FireFox twice before on Windows XP with no issue. I've tried by turning off Norton, computer shut down & restarts, searched Internet Explorer settings for a setting to change, and still no success. I see no one else having this problem in the troubleshooting files, so it must be me.
    New laptop with plenty of harddrive space. Internet Explorer version 9.0.8112.16421. Bing search - yech

    finitarry,
    Thank you for contributing.
    I have downloaded the 607 KB "Firefox_Setup_19.0.2.exe" file four times now from at least three different Mozilla websites via EZDownload. I was very careful about that because one time I did it with Norton Anti-virus temporarily disabled. I double-click on the above file and it opens a new window with various "extra" software options and finally arrives at "Install Now" or "Later" buttons. Clicking"Install Now" brings up a Windows Open File - Security Warning box with "Run" or "Cancel" buttons. Clicking "Run" starts the setup file all over. I'm in an endless do-loop. It never installs Firefox and no new Firefox files show up on my PC.
    AliceWyman,
    Thank you for contributing.
    Before beginning this post, I scoured the Support files and especially the "Download, Install and Migration" help files. Most topics close to mine deal with the Norton toolbar, which seems to have been resolved.
    Doing some more looking, I found that my setup file was always 607KB, yet the website says it is 19.6MB. When I download it to my Windows 7 laptop, I have gotten a 607 KB size file four times, even though the process did not seem to be interrupted. However, using my Windows XP PC, I get 19.6MB. That could be the problem. I'll transfer the 19.6MB file from the XP to Win7 and see if that works. Thanks. I'll get back to you.
    3/24/2013: It worked. Hallelujah!
    Someone might want to verify this only happens to me. Maybe it is one of my settings or a fluke or maybe I'm paranoid, but a brand-new laptop with Windows 7 factory-installed stops the Firefox download at 607KB four times in a row (on different days) with no error message. I have to transfer the file from an old Windows XP PC. That sounds to me like Microsoft is trying to prevent the use of Firefox. It could have been something in Windows 7 Home Premium (service pack 1), Internet Explorer (version 9.0.8112.16421 64-bit), Bing, or less likely, Norton Anti-Virus (because I ran it disabled one time - even though Norton labelled the file as medium risk). Just a thought . . .
    Right now, I am happily setting up the rest of my system around the quicker, more efficient, more user-friendly, less restricting, Firefox browser. Thank you. =)

  • What do I need to reinstall operating system on toshiba nb 205 mini laptop with win 7

    I want to re install the operating system on my mini laptop but not sure what I need? I boght this off of a nice older lady but she didn't give me any discs with this laptop. Would windows 7 be the actual software that came with this laptop? The numbers on the windows sticker seem to be mostly worn off. Is there a way to do this without the product key? All help would be great! also, can I buy a re install disc and use that? Or is there a way for me to burn one off of the laptop itself? I do not have a dvd/cd spot on this laptop so can I use a flash drive? Thanks

    Which NB205? There is a label on the bottom.

  • The auto installer won't open on my laptop with win. 7...it only says open folder to view files.

    how do i install the elements 9 program while using the dvd. it only opens a window that says  "open folder to view files" .,.. the auto installer is not working. its a new laptop.... toshiba x505 series... how can i run the install? thanks...

    Click on the Start button >>Computer
    Right click on the icon for the DVD drive and choose open - then see if you can find the set-up file.
    Double click the set up file to start installation.
    It sometimes helps to temporarily turn off internet security/anti virus software.

  • Will win. 7 work on laptop with win.xp

    my question is . can i  install win. 7  & will it work properly .  sense win. xp has gone away.   thank you.   billyg
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    A question like this would require more information, like the hardware specifications of your computer. 
    If your computer meets the hardware requirements listed on Microsoft's website
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/system-requirements
    you're probably good to go.
    You can check your computers hardware by right clicking my computer and selecting properties.
    There might be minor details you would have to change in your BIOS as well. If you aren't too good with computers, the best option would be to call HP and check with them (even though their customer service is utter crap) or post another question and include the full model name/number and all details about your computer to the forum. 
    Hope this helps

  • Installing Leopard onto a laptop with a broken internal DVD drive?

    I'm trying to install Leopard onto my PowerBook G4 (yes, long past the warranty but she's an old workhorse). The internal DVD "super" drive has been broken for a couple of years, so I've got a nice, fast, solid Sony external USB 2.0 DVD/CD player/burner.
    Just now I inserted the install disk into the drive. The disk mounted. Install window popped up automatically. Clicked the button to restart and install... the Mac restarts alright, but there's no installation happening (and no error message to tell me what's happening).
    I've been searching the documentation and this forum and so far I'm stumped. Can anyone shed any light on this?
    Is it simply impossible to install Leopard from an external USB drive? If so, is there a non-disk method anyone can suggest?

    Please post the specs on your g4, lets make sure its possible first, then someone here can help get you going.
    And to add to that, I am thinking that it would have to be a firewire disk drive to boot (?? Anyone?)
    I also have to agree with Jeff, If you have another mac with a working dvd drive, or know someone (use beer as payment ) with a mac that would be quick and easy. If you do it as jeff suggests, then both macs need to be the same, or if they are different, you can put the disk in the borrowed mac, shut it down and restart holding the T key, putting borrowed mac into target mode, then hook you mac and borrowed mac together with a firewire cable, start your mac holding the alt/option key which will bring you to the disk selection screen, pick the Leopard disk and it should start the installation.
    Make sure when you get to the point in the installer where it asks you which disk you want to install to, make sure you select your mac (as the borrowed mac's hdd will show up also)
    The above method basically turns the borrowed mac into an external firewire DVD drive. K

  • Need to disable the touchpad on a Pavilion dv4150US laptop with Win-XP SP2

    Trying to disable the Synaptics touchpad.   Contrary to adviCe I have seen on the Internet, there is no dialog option for the toudhpad to select disable in my system.  The Windows device manager doesn't even list a touchpad device.
    The synaptics driver zip file is sp31075.exe and when unzipped it gives some alps drivers.   I have renamed these in an attempt to disable, but it continues to operate.  I suspect there is some generic driver in Windows which operates when the manufacturer's driver is missing.
    The touchpa is a nuisance because it is hard to keep the thumb from hitting it and causing the cursor to jump all over the screen.  @??/\#$&%*?~`!
    Thanks for your help to any who have found the solution to this problem.

  • Can't open camera RAW image in CS4/Bridge with Win 8.1.  Worked fine with XP

    I upgraded from Win XP to 8.1 and got a new computer in the process.  I'm using CS4, and I think that works okay, except it does not recognize a RAW file.  Bridge won't open thumbnails for RAW files, and if I try to open one it doesn't open it in Bridge; it goes straight to CS4 and that says it's 'not the right kind of document'. It doesn't matter if the file is on the hard drive or on a Canon card in a reader. Bridge will display thumbnails for JPG files and open them in CS4.  It will not show the thumbnails for TIF files, but it will open them in CS4. How do I fix this?

    I did all that, in the order you recommended.  I downloaded, expanded and installed all three updates. I then checked the start page for CS4 and it is at 11.0.2. I also rebooted, but Bridge still won't display thumbnails of RAW files, will not open a RAW file in Bridge but sends it to CS4 which still says it is not the right kind of document.  If I try to open a RAW file in CS4 directly, I do get thumbnails, but it won't open the file.  On a more positive note, I called a friend who also has CS4 and who also recently bought a new computer.  However, his is a laptop with Win 8 Professional. He had not tried to use Photoshop since he got the new laptop, and he discovered that he had the very same problem. However, downloading the updates fixed him right up. My new machine is a desktop with Win 8.1.  What do I do now?

  • Adobe Elements 9, sharing photo mail problem with Win. 7, Live Mail.

    Last Oct. 2011 I bought a new HP laptop with Win. 7 I and PS Elements 9 and Permiere 9. I am familar to XP and PS Elements 6. I play with photos alot and shortly found that I could not send/share photos using Photo Mail and Win. Live Mail. I contacted Adobe and was told that it was HP's problem. I contacted HP, They worked very hard on trying to find the solution. I was in contact with 3-4 techs. accessing my lap top for 4-6 hours trying many things. Finally I was told that I needed Outlook to use Photo Mail and that if I bought Micro. Office it would have Outlook. I think it was around $200.00. I already had Office Home and Student and told the tech. that I had already paid $$$ for the laptop and programs and the unit should work. The tech. tried to down load a pervious ver. of Outlook, but it didn't work. I was told that sometimes when purchasing a custom pc thing do not work properly. The last Tech.told me it was Adobe's problem.  I didn't know what to do-----I finally called  Adobe back. I explained the problem---this Tech. said "no problem" and had it fixed in no time at all! It had something to do with a number as I recall. Access # ? I don't recall.
    Last week I got some type of a virus and had to restore back to factory settings. Now I am in the same problem and cannot fix the problem. I called both Abobe and HP. They both told me to purchase help one at $50.00 the $39.00 and it would be fixed. The other option is to purchase Elements 10 around $100.00. and the problem will be fixed.
    AM I FRUSTERATED----YES!

      I would not normally recommend going back to earlier software but if you are re-building it may be worth installing the original version of MS Live Mail. But PSE does not work with Live Essentials 2011.

  • Apple LaserWriter 16/600 PS with Win 7 (64bit): Looking for driver software

    Hello,
    can anybody tell me where to find the driver software for the Apple LaserWriter 16/600 PS connected to my Windows PC running Windows 7 (64Bit). With Win XP there was no problem at all, the printer got connected via plug and play, whereas with Win 7 I can't get it to work.
    If there is no original WIN7 compatible driver version available, is there any other printer driver that could be used instead.
    Any help is very much appreciated.
    Best regards
