Satellite L775D S7305 freezing

I have a little problem of my laptop freezing up on me and when it freezes I can not do any thing but push the power button. Here is the specs.
Satellite L775D S7305
AMD A6-3400M APU W/Radeon
64bit 8GB RAM
500GB HD
This just started about a week ago and the weird thing is I have not installed any new software or hardware.
Bought the laptop form Best Buy and the RAM. I had a problem with some software that would not install correctly and had to do a restore, which by the way worked great. Got my software installed and everything was just great for about 4 weeks nothing wrong. Then all of a sudden the laptop starts locking up, and it does not matter what I'm doing. I can be working on some HTML files with note pad and it will lock up to the point I have to push the power button.
I have a old Satellite M35X-S163 with 2GB RAM and Windows XP and have never had this type of problem.
I have one other problem that for some reason on one can answer Other Problem.
It would be nice if I can get this problem fix so I can do some work and make some money.

brad55: Are you still looking for help with this? Sounds like the same problem we had with my daughter's 2-month-old Toshiba Satellite® L775D-S7222. Briefly, after much trial and error, I determined that it was in fact a HARDWARE problem, NOT software as we initially expected, and it was fixed ONLY after a return to Toshiba factory service for a motherboard swap. I'll be happy to write up the full particulars of MY experience, but I don't want to take the time to do that UNLESS you are still seeking a possible solution to YOUR problem. -- EstherD

Satellite L305-S5955 Freezing and not responding

I have had this laptop for more than 4 years now and recently I have had issues with it freezing up and not responding within approximately 5-10 min of booting up. I have had to do a system restore to factory out of box state 3 times now. What could be causing this issue and how do I stop it from happening again? Please help me!!!!

RESTORING SATELLITE L775D-S7340

All data and partitions have been erased because of problems beyond my control. Thought be erasing everything and start would fix but that is not the case.
All ordered from Toshiba with there blessings... I have installed Recovery Media for Satallite L770D Series Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit twice with two different media packages Toshiba sent. Replaced Hard Drive with upgraded 1TB. Replaced Memory Module with upgraded 8GB module. Downloaded Recovery Media again and.....get the same eror message that "Windows has unexpectedly restarted or unable to install Windows....". Is next step to buy Windows 7 Install disk? Did think that came with Recovery Media???? HELP!!

Downloads here.
If you have difficulty restoring the hard disk using Toshiba recovery media, it's probably because the new drive has advanced-format technology. See my post from long ago here.
We've learned since then that all sorts of difficulties can occur. You probably need to introduce the new storage driver early in the process. See this message.

Need some Driver Help / Satellite L775D-S7206

Getting to be such a common request these days.
I have a Satellite L775D-S7206 in which the hard drive died.
I replaced it with a 128G SSD and a new copy of Windows 7.
I have everything up and running great but I do show one Error and that is on the SM Bus Controller.
Can someone point me in the right direction to this driver?
Thanks !

Satellite L775D-S7206
Best to restore the new drive to the original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. That way you needn't struggle with drivers and utilities. And Windows is preactivated.
If you failed to burn the recovery discs, you can order them.
Order Toshiba Recovery Media
Home Premium already includes Pro and Ultimate, BTW. It's only a matter of unlocking the features.

Driver up dates Satellite L775D-S7222!

Hi I need some advise. I have two free programs telling me My AMD driver needs up dating. But when I use device manager to up date; after up dating AMD with either program, it finds and installs a different version??? The reason for this message is after up dating the AMD driver with Slim Driver, I started to get a error in my reliability history. I have very little knowledge about these things and I'm confused. I'm going to attach some screen shots and hope some one here can tell me what's going on.

Hi CB! Thanks for your reply. My main goal was to show what part Reliability History played in this. I agree with you about not fixing some thing that isn't broke. I like to try different things; learn from them, and pass it forward. I always have a back up plan that I can revert back to. Also both these programs have a feature to roll back the driver just like the option in Device Manager has. I hope you looked at my screen shots!!

Satellite L775D-S7222 standby modes stalls the computer

sometimes trying to put the laptop in standby mode FN+F3 stalls the laptop. the screen goes blank and nothing else works, the only option is to hard reset . when this happens most lights stays on and even after removing the power cord the power on light stays lit.
update to the latest BIOS , still the same.

Satellite L775D-S7222
it is a month old laptop. I called them up, their response was to send the laptop back
It's usually suggested that you restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media.
That tells you if there's a software problem.
I believe this could be windows 7 issue. have a friend who has Dell and has similar problems .
Not much of a sample size.

Satellite L775D

I turn on the power and it goes to the Toshiba start screen, where i can press f2 or f12. Then the screen goes black and after a second or two the same screen comes on again. It does this over and over and will not go beyond that screen. Can somebody help?

Hi DerrickStevenson29,
May I have the model ? ex. SATELLITE L775D-XXXXX
Have you tried to completely turn off the laptop, unplug the power cord, remove the battery then press hold the power button for at least 20secs to drain the flea power of your laptop. After 20secs install the battery, plugin the power cord then power on your laptop.
Hope this works for you!
BTW IF YOU THINK IT HELPS ALOT. PLEASE DONT BE AFRAID TO CLICK KUDOS star ^_^

Satellite L775D clock running fast

Our tech support friends are stumped by this one so I thought I would try polling the "unwashed masses":
The clock on the Satellite is always running fast, approx 15 minutes every 12 hours regardless of turned on, turned off, sleep, AC plugged in, AC not plugged in.
So far we have unchecked the automatic sync with internet time.windows and reset the BIOS settings, with no improvement.
Any thoughts / suggestions?
TIA Keith
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Let's start here.
Keith, open Services (services.msc) and verify that the Windows Time service exists and that Startup Type is set to Manual.
If it's not started, start it. If it won't start, give us the message.
If all that's okay, come back for more.
Also, tell us which Satellite L775D that is and the bitness of Windows.

Satellite L775D-10E - No sound trough HDMI

Hi!
I can not get sound trough HDMI. Only speakers exist as an alternative in sound devices. How can I correct this?
The computer is a Satellite L775D-10E. Of cause have i tried different cables and tv:s as well as a projektor. The problem is that I do not have HDMI ouput as an alternative.

> The problem is that I do not have HDMI ouput as an alternative.
Thats very strange. Every notebook preinstalled with original Toshiba recovery image that includes right sound driver has this option.
So can you please tell us s your notebook still with factory settings or you have modifies preinstalled OS or maybe installed own version?

Toshiba Satellite L775D-S7210 - Won't boot, Power & WiFi LED lit

I have a Toshiba Satellite L775D-S7210 laptop that refuses to boot properly. I've owned this laptop for about 4 years and this problem just happened a few days ago. It can turn on, but it leads to a blank screen (as if the lcd is disconnected from power) and only the small Power indicator and WiFi light is lit while the others are off.It does not show any BIOS or POST screen. While it's on, I can hear a electrical whirring sound coming from the underside of the logic board, and the Optical disc and hard disk exhibit accessing activitity. Then, after a few seconds, the CPU fan starts running. This laptop stays powered on forever and the only way to turn it off is to hold the power button or remove the charger or battery. The events that occurred before this blank screen problem was a simple file transfer between the internal hard disk in IDE mode and a cruzer glide 16gb flash drive. Nothing out of the ordinary, just your standard drag-and-drop file transfer. When i completed this file transfer, i rebooted the PC into the BIOS settings. I was going to install Windows 7 fresh, so I went to the setting that had the options for AHCI or IDE, and changed it to AHCI. I saved the changes and rebooted. On the next boot, I got a blue screen error while it was loading the old Windows 7 partition that was left there. It crashed and rebooted.On this next reboot, the laptop could no longer boot and showed a blank screen with just the power light indicator on. And, nothing else would work after that (usb, keyboard, etc). It just stayed blank. How could have this problem have happened? It was very, very random and out of nowhere. How could a change of the BIOS settings cause this corruption? I am not sure if the BIOS needs to be reflashed; I am unable to access the BIOS because the LCD display or externally attached display never prompts with the boot logo. What could the issue be? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, - forestvenue

I had a customer with the same issue. Said it prompted him to update bios. Afterwards, it came up with "starting windows" and just a few pixels of the windows logo cam up and then froze. Couldn't boot to safe mode either. Called toshiba and they recomended restoring the system to factory settings. But I didn't end up having to do that.
Toshiba said it was set to FAST BOOT which is why no POST messages came up. This can be set using the hwsetup utility, but that means booting windows. So, I was going to restore to factory condition.
HERE'S WHAT FIXED IT
To go into system recovery, press and hold 0 (zero) while turning the computer on.
1st, I didn't have the power supply (customer didn't bring it to me) and the power light just blinked 4 times.
After getting a power supply I turned it on holding the 0 down.
This gave me the chance to press F2 to go into BIOS settings.
Set BIOS settings to defaults. Then DISABLE THE FAST BOOT FEATURE (didn't record where that was in the menus)
Saved BIOS and rebooted and windows started!
Good luck!

My Satellite L675-S7016 freezes when I don't work with it 5-10 minutes

My Satellite L675-S7016 freezes when I don't work with it 5-10 minutes and only if plugged with power cable, on battery power no problem with freezing.
I switch off sleep options in power manager on all power profiles, but problem still here.
Who ever met the same problem? How to solve?

od, what computer do you have? Does it ever "unfreeze" or do you have to power it down? When does it freeze?

Satellite A660-18N freezes randomly

My Satellite A660-18N freezes randomly mostly when I'm playing games or watching video.
Also sometimes when I'm just moving the mouse. It does it about 1-2 times a week/2weeks. When it happens the display freezes but the audio plays on for a while and doesn't react to any keypress so I have to manually turn it off and on.
I don't think it's a graphic card overheating issue as it sometimes happens just a few minutes after I turn on my laptop plus I use a cooler pad as well.

Hi
This happens sometimes this means that you cannot replicate this and this means that its really difficult to say what could cause this.
Theoretically it could be just a software issue. Maybe only the registry is corrupt.
In such case the new OS installation should be done.
Of course it could be also related to memory: so test the RAM using some tools like mem86+ or similar.
Check also the HDD; for that you can use the tool called Drive Fitness Test.

Satellite A205-S4617 Freeze after boot. HELP

I have a Satellite A205-S4617 freeze after boot. I have reformatted the harddrive and loaded recovery software, to no avail. I have run a memory test with no errors for at least 40mins. I have tried reading the hard drive outside to a different PC and it looks OK.
I initially suspected memory, but I tested and no errors on the test. Then, the hard drive i checked using another PC and it was OK. Next possibility is the motherboard, but i ran the memory test on the laptop and it worked without freezing....unless the memory test operation is not connected to the motherboard or not enough to test the motherboard. help.
I then tried running it using Ubuntu booting from the CD, and still it would freeze. So I don't know where to look for next.
HELP.
thank you very much.

I too would like to see suggestions on this. I am having the same issue with a couple of Satellite A205's, one is a -S4597 (32-bit), the other is a -S4607 (64-bit.) I have tried multiple operating systems, checked, and changed the RAM, and both system have good hard drives. I've completely torn down and rebuilt both of them, applying new thermal paste, and cleaning them, yet both freeze at about the same spot, while trying to initiize the operating system, after having copied the files over. I'm working on using other computers to install the operating systems on the hard drives, then installing the hard drives back in the machines, and seeing if that works.

Satellite L405D-11V - Freezes and screen goes black when watching video

Ok, so I have the Toshiba Satellite L405D-11V, I have had a fault, basically, the computer would freeze at any time and the screen would go black, with the fan and lights still going, this could be on start-up, or a few hours into using the laptop, so I decided to ring up Toshiba's tech support and they arranged for my laptop to be collected and sent off for repairs.
I was able to track the repairs online through the tracking service, and was able to see what they were doing to my laptop, it said that they ordered a part, it was in progress and the repairs were finished.
However, I got the laptop back today, I turn it on, everything is fine, I start using the laptop everything is fine, then I decide to watch a video on youtube, and it freezes again, so, I power off holding down the power button, hoping it was just a one off, I turn it back on, and load up the video again, it freezes and the screen goes black again, after working out that when ever I watch a video or play a game, it causes the computer to crash and freeze like before the repairs. So there is still a fault, but im not sure what to do
Its still under warranty, I purchased the laptop from Comet, but I dont really want to send the laptop off for repairs again and to find it will come back with the same fault, is it worth sending it off again, perhaps seeing if comet will replace the laptop as its still under a year of buying the laptop, or is it just gonna be worth saving all the hassle and buying a new laptop? If this fault has happened to anyone else, I could sure use some help, and if someone could shed a little light as to what might be wrong?
Thanks

Hi buddy,
Did you change something on configuration after you got your notebook back from repair? Did you update a driver or something else?
What operating system you are using on your Satellite L405D?
To be honest its really hard to say why it happens because the technicians test everything to check if your notebook runs properly.
In my opinion you should try updating the display driver. Maybe its causing the issue
If not I would recommend installing Windows from Toshiba recovery disk to restore factory settings. These settings are pretested by Toshiba and should work.
If you still have the problem you must contact the technicians again. I mean you could track the repair online and according your posting everything worked well during repair so in my opinion it shouldnt be a problem to contact the guys exactly.
Explain your problem very detailed. I think everything can be clarified then. :)
