Satellite L305D-S5892 - Windows has encountered a problem

Hello,
I have a I have a Toshiba-L305D-S5892
With Vista Home Prem. 32
I have a few problems and am currently stuck.
Each Probelm listed below, is a problem I encountered after following some proper steps.
*The 1st Problem*
Just a few hours ago my screen was frozen right after I tried to install this microsoft codec, so the only option I had was to do a hard reset.
When my computer turned back on, I got this message:
Windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer.
This error can be cause by unplugging a removable storage device such as an external usb drive while the device is in use or by faulty hardware such as a hard drive or CD-ROM drive that is failing. Make sure any removable storage is properly connected and then restart your computer.
If you continue to receive this error message, contact the hardware manufacturer.
File: \Windows\system32\winload.exe
Status: 0xc00000e9
Info: An unexpected I/0 error has occurred.
I didn't have any usb device or removable media in.
I can only access my Set up Utility at start up, which has this menu: Main-Advanced-Display-Security- Boot - Exit
*2nd Problem*
I opened up my laptop and took out the CD/DVD+RW, booted it back up and now the I get this message:
For Realtek RTL8101E/8102E PCI-E Ethernet Controller v1.07
PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable.
PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM.
No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key
*3rd Probelm*
I downloaded the repair Cd from NEOSMART.
Once I am at the System Recovery Options, it tells me to pick a operating system. However there is non listed. So I press load drivers, then a message tells me to insert media and select the drivers. I pres "ok", then am taken to explorer, when there are Files( all empty) and a few System files?
I am confused....any help?

Hello
It is pretty complicated to communicate with you and you mix several problems so I think it is important to continue this discussion step by step.

HDD! if the HDD is not recognized and listed in BIOS settings it can be serious problem. At first it can be because of defective HDD but it can also be because of defective HDD controller. OK, HDD replacement is not so problematic and you can do this alone. I don't know which HDD you found on eBay but I recommend you to remove HDD from notebook and buy the same one. So you will be sure you have right HDD.
If the controller is defective, you have big problem and you must contact ASP (Authorized service provider).
II
I don't know what NEOSMART is and what kind of image you can find there. If you don't have original recovery disc you have two options:
-to order new one from Toshiba directly > https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx > but you must pay for it
-use Microsoft installation disc for Vista installation. All necessary drivers, tools and utilities you can download from Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com

  • I get an error message when trying to install windows 7 on my macbook pro. The message says "windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer. I don't have anything connected to my computer. How do I fix this?

    I'm trying to install windows 7 on my macbook pro. I went through the process of bootcamp telling it to install windows 7. Once the windows boot manager started an error message came up. The error message says " windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer. I don't have a usb connected to my computer. I  am using windows 7 professional install disc. I  can't figure out what i am doing wrong. The same message keeps coming up over and over. Am I doing something wrong or is it something else?

    Well, shucks, i just spent almost 30 minutes trying to find your model user guide to explain it better, I guess they never got around to making it.....
    I would just borrow another Windows disk and try installing it again and if it does it again then you might take it to an Apple Store and see if one of the "Genius' " can figure it out.
    Make sure your internet is enabled and click on your blank desktop and at the top of your screen is a Help menu option, enter PRAM and it should give you a list of things relating to Pram. It may take a few seconds to list anything as it has to connect to Apples severs first. It should list the things you may have to fill back in when your done.

  • Just purchased and installed photoshop and everytime i try to open it it says "windows has encountered a problem and must close the program" anyone else have this problem?

    I have just purchased the photography package on my windows 8 computer and everytime I open photoshop an error message pops up saying that windows has encountered a problem and needs to close the program. I am really frustrated that this is happening after I purchased this plan and would like to be able to use the product I have purchased

    +1 to Chris' assessment.
    Keep in mind that it's your responsibility to provide a problem-free working environment on your computer for Photoshop, and system software (such as display drivers) can have problems.
    Look in your Windows Event Logs (specifically, your Application Log) for the info requested above on the specific crashes.

    Hi,
    I would suggest you check with any other colleague if they are able to run the same or not. Running BEx report depends hugely on the front end capacity and performance. Please check if anyone else can run the same report, with the same front end RAM, then it might be the problem with your installation.
    Also you can try with the latest patch for GUI s/w.

  • Windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to my computer

    I have an HP Pavilion dv6 notebook; Product # WF536AV, running Win 7-Home. Without warning, when trying to boot one day I got the following error message: 
    Windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer. May be caused by unplugging removable storage while in use or a faulty hhd or CD drive. An unexpected I/O error. Error Code oxcoooooe9.
    I have a 500GB WDC hhd that seems to run hot.
    Cannot get into F8 Advanced Options, although I can get into BIOS (F9 & F10)
    Ran the Win 7 Recovery Disks twice. No help. Same message
    I can run Linux Ubuntu in memory (not installed). GParted shows the following:    
           Partition size    used       unused   label   flag              file system
    Sda1 76GB       14GB       61GB                                       NTFS
    sda2 400MB     300MB   100MB    SDV     Boot lba      FAT32
    unallocated 390GB
    6. No access to Recovery Manager
    7. F2: memory test passed but hhd test would not run
    8. In Ubuntu Disk Manager, report said drive had 'a few bad sectors', but hhd test would not run "Self Test- Failed (Read)
    9) Ran MBR repair disk and System Rescue disk; no luck
    10) In Ubuntu, when I look at the Windows file system, In 82 GB partition there is an 'RM' folder with an "Image" folder with 16 files.  In the SDV partition is the bootmgr folder and several others
    a) why cannot I boot to Windows off the hhd?
    b) what does SDV label mean (secure digital video; silicon data valu;tr; static driver verifer  from Windows)?
    c) is the hhd simply failing. I do not have an extra to swap out and try
    d) may the Win 7 Recovery disks bad, perhaps, and should I then download a Win 7 ISO file and try that?
    Thanks for any help. This is highly frustrating. I have already spent about 8 hours on this!

  • "windows has encountered a problem"

    I'm loading Windows on my iMac (one of the 'all in one' models) and it freezes at the black screen with a message that says "Windows has encountered a problem with a device connected to your computer."  It then says somethong anout a USB device being unplugged but  I don't have anything but my Mac keyboard/mouse attached.  Any ideas?  I searched the discussion boards without result. Thank you.
    I'm running fully updated Mavericks with adequate ram, Windows install was attempted with both 32 and 64 bit disks.

    Few options here :
    1. Try same DVD on a different system
    2. The to replace the CD reader.

  • Satellite A500-1C0 - Windows has detected a problem with HDD

    Good day,
    Notebook shows me that Windows has detected a problem with HDD. The notebook is slow and the chops. And when you turn it shows me Smart Failure predicted on hard disk 1. Toshiba MK 5055GSX - (S2). Can you help me? (Im CZ)

    Hi Konyga,
    If you already get a warning about internal HDD before Windows starts I would recommend exchanging it and backup all data as fast as possible.
    Is your notebook still under warranty?
    If yes you can get a new HDD from an authorized service provider. This would be for free because its covered by warranty. Everything what you have to do is contacting an ASP.

  • When i try to open firefox i get a message that says Windows has encountered a problem and will notify when there is a solution. Then you can click on the explanation and it says DEP will not allow it to open. Can you tell me how to fix this?

    I was able to install and have an icon on my desktop. When i click on it it automatically pops a box up that says: Firefox has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Then it highlights an icon at the bottom to show what the problem is and it is DEP (data execution prevention. I tried a few suggestions there but it didn't work. So it said to see if there is a download version compatable with DEP

  • I have installed iTunes on my new windows 7 dell laptop every time I start it it comes up with an error saying itunes has encountered a problem and it closes ? any answers have tried command prompt reset and it has not resolved it also un/reinstalled

    I have installed iTunes on my new laptop OS Windows 7. I have two iphones, a 3rd gen nano and an ipod classic.
    Since the install yesterday I keep getting an error message which itunes has stopped working A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a soluion is available.
    I have un and re installed and followed a command promt reset.
    I still have the problem. Any ideas?

    Ok. So I created a new account and iTunes did work. I went back into my original account and tried again and just to be more clear, after I open iTunes it asks me to accept or decline the agreement, I do that, then it says "updating library", and then one all the bars are full it closes and says "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close."
    okay, let's start working through the user-account-specific causes of this message.
    one possibility is damaged itunes preference files in the user account in which you're getting the crash. (there's a different set of those in each different user account, which is how we can get crashes limited to a single user account.)
    if that is what is going on, we can often get past this by rebuilding the preference files in the account that is crashing. for the preference files rebuild technique, see my reply to kusma in this post:

    My iTunes, whenever I try to open it, come up with a window that saysiTunes has encountered a problem and now has to close sorry for theinconvienence.

    Generate another of those errors, and click the "Click here" link in the error message box.
    What modname and modver do you see for the error? (Precise spelling, please.)
    If the error is a BEX and you thus aren't seeing a modname or modver, let us know what P1 through P9 items are being listed for the error.

  • Windows Home XP - "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close"

    Hello :
    I just updated to iTunes 7.7.0.43 for Windows Home XP. The earlier version was working just fine. But last week I downloaded the update and although the program works fine, every time that I exit from this application I get an error message "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close." I went to the support site and did several things including creating a new ueer account to test whether user or system-specific (I cannot tell); re-installing the application; re-creating my library and play-lists; etc. But I still get the same error message. Otherwise the application works fine, plays music, imports music OK, etc. This condition only occurs a few seconds after I exit from the application. Can anybody out there help me ? I am at my wit's end with this annoyance ! Thanks.

    Whether or not this will be fixed by a software update depends on what the root cause of the issue is. I would recommend trying MSCONFIG, although I can understand your reluctance to do so. Is your computer currently in Normal startup mode? If so, and if Apple's MSCONFIG steps do not resolve your issue, you can easily revert to Normal startup using the utility. If your computer is currently in Selective startup mode, just make note of the changes you make so you can change them back after you determine whether MSCONFIG resolved the issue. If it does, I'd suggest using the utility to disable a few items at a time until you narrow down which is the cause of the issue. Then you can determine whether this is a startup item or service that you need to have running on your PC.
    MSCONFIG for XP: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1275
    MSCONFIG for Vista: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305415
    You may also want to check and see if iTunes and/or QuickTime are running in compatibility mode. If the are, turn this option off and retry iTunes.
    -Go to C:\Program Files\iTunes\
    Right-click on iTunes.exe and click Properties
    Click the Compatibility tab
    Uncheck the option to run in compatibility mode
    Click Ok
    -Go to C:\Program Files\QuickTime\
    Right-cick on QuickTime.exe and click Properties
    Click the Compatibility tab
    Uncheck the option to run in compatibility mode

  • Windows XP, SP3: 'Skype has encountered a problem and needs to close...'

    I have seen quite a few people have this issue on here, but despite countless forum searches and multiple uninstalls/re-installs, I have not been able to fix my problem. I have not had any issues will Skype on my other computer. But I have recently gotten a WiFi adapter for the Windows XP in my room, and decided to download Skype on here as well. I have tried various downloads from Skype, earlier versions of Skype, and deleting .xml files as well as updating and restarting my computer. My install seems to go smoothly, but once I click on Skype or its shortcut icon, a blank Skype window opens up, quickly followed by an error message like displayed in the title. I have sent a few error reports, but that doesn't really move toward fixing my problem. If someone could help me reach a solution soon, that would be greatly appreciated. Here is some of my computer information below: System:Microsoft Windows XPProfessionalVersion 2002Service Pack 3 Computer:Intel(R)Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80 GHz2.79 GHz, 1.25 GB of RAM IE:Version 8.0.6001.18702 Error Info:AppName: skype.exeAppVer: 6.13.0.104ModName: mlang.dll
    ModVer: 6.0.2900.5512Offset: 00017ad2 I have attached the extra file that was attached to the error report. Please let me know of any other information you may need to help with my dilemma. I have spent most of my day attempting to fix this problem to no avail, and would really appreciate any help. Thank you.

    Problem Statement: Skype working fine. Then two days ago, I opened the skype program and this time it immediateley began an automatic update (nothing unusual,, has been doing this for years) Upon installation of the update (presumably for ver 7.6) I received a dialog box message "Skype update has encountered a problem and has to close"...... you know the drill...send error report to microsoft,etc.I then tried to reopen skype, but no skype window opened, Instead another error dialogue box "Skype has encountered a problem, yada,yada,yada send error report to microsoft"After consulting the support pages, did a COMPLETE uninstall/reinstall of ver 7.6 Evidently the install went fine (or did it ?) Skype is in my program files folder, the desktop icon is in place, but again, when I double click to open skype, the  dialoge error message appears instead,, as before, "Skype has encounteed a problem...send erreor report to microsoft" Of course, using XP, SP 3  1.2 Ghz processor, 512 MB RAM, IE 8.0 which meets min requirements for skype. Considered other posts here suggesting to retro back to a previous version, but with auto-updates, how long will that last ? (can they be disabled ?)To sum up, 7. 6 auto update installation started the problem, and nothing  I've tried seems to solve the problem.  P.S.  I installed a Netgear wireless USB adapter and corresponding driver between the date of the last successful Skype auto update, and the time the current issue occurred. Skype had worked fine with the wireless connection before the 7.6 update. But I wouldn't think there would be a connectivity problem, as Skype simply refuses to open. Or maybe I'm wrong. As of now I am clueless and skypeless.
