Satellite L840-A626 - Windows freezes while boting

Hi!
i have a problem on my toshiba Satellite L840-A626 .. and tht is Adobe flash player update suddenly appeared on screen and i accidentally clicked update..
My laptop shutdown immediately then after that. Its always freezes in start up.. start up repair wont work and when i opened my laptop again its always a black screen displaying "starting windows". .. freezes again .. hoping for your response thnk you ... support team

You did not mention the system you are using now but the notebook was preinstalled with Win 7 system and I guess this OS is still in use on your notebook.
Therefore you should be able to access the Advanced Menu pressing F8 button while powering on the unit.
Then you should choose the option Repair my computer to enter the system recovery options menu.
Here you can choose different repair options like Startup Repair or System restore which helps you to set the OS to early time point before the update has been installed.

ITunes for windows freezes while synchronizing nano 6g

Hello there. I have been a proud user of the 8GB 6g iPod nano for five months and never ever had eny problems with it until today.
I was about to add some more music and the sync process froze on "beginning synchronization". The spinning icon on ipod's screen appeared with "connected, eject before disconnecting" announcement, but nothing happened. iTunes stoped reacting to any clicking, dragging, anything, could be only shut down via task manager. Shut down or not, the ipod shows the same all the time, even after all system restarting, itunes reinstallation and stuff. The trouble doesn't appear when I just click "synchronize" without making any changes, but when I mark even one small track to add or remove from ipod, it freezes as posted above. I can still listen to the music and use al other features of both ipod and itunes, though.

Have you tried working through TS1717: iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues?
I would imaging the difficulty with transferring purchases while offline is that iTunes can't phone home to check the authorization of the computer.

Windows freezes while converting WMA's to M4A's

I am having a very difficult time converting my existing Windows Media inventory of music to the iTunes compatible format. When I use the "Add Folder" option it locates all of the files but will freeze after 20 or so songs. With almost 3000 songs on my computer, this will take forever this way. Any suggestions or help. Apple technical support couldn't shed any light on the situation for me.
Thanks,
cg

I would do a search on the net to see if there are any free programs that will do that. If not, there are many programs that can do it, but the best thing to do is search the net and then rereviews on like CNet.com from users who have done it and how successful it was. I would only try one song and make sure the sound came out ok. To be hones, WMA are not as good as they are lead to believe. I have been in radio for over 30 years and we tested it but went back to mp3s for our music. Good luck.

Windows freezing while transfering

I just got a new 5th generation and I am try to load my library over to the iPod and my computer freezes any help out there. Thanks

As a test, shut down (power off) your computer and disconnect all USB devices including hub (except for standard keyboard and mouse if normally used). If your computer is a laptop, connect its power adapter (so that it's not running on battery power). Do this to reset the shuffle
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
Start up the computer, run iTunes, and connect the shuffle to a direct USB port on the computer. Does this problem recur when the shuffle is the only USB device?
If it does (as another test), select the shuffle in iTunes, so that its Settings screen is showing. Check the box for Enable disk use, and Apply. Does that make any difference regarding this problem?

Spaces: Word windows freeze when shifted to another space.

Having used Desktop Manager on Tiger for a couple of years, I was expecting a lot from Spaces.
I frequently want to shift windows from one space to another. Instead of ApplealtO (in DTM), I now have to open all spaces using F13 and drag and drop the windows, which would be acceptable, if it worked flawlessly. Problem is that if I drag multiple Word documents to a different space, some of the windows freeze, while others don't. I never had this problem with Desktop Manager.
Has anyone discovered a fix for this?

I have not uses Desktop Manager but I have had discussions with other users on this forum about two different ways of viewing how a virtual desktop should work.
The situation is that some people look at virtual desktops as being Workspace-oriented and some view them as Application-oriented, which is how Apple’s Spaces works. I would guess that Desktop Manager was Workspace-oriented and it will take some rethinking to adapt to how Spaces works.
Applications get assigned to specific Spaces and moving windows out of that specific Space to create a workspace is different from how Spaces was designed, and can result in unwanted behavior.
One way to get more workspace-oriented desktops is to assign the most frequently used applications to all Spaces. I have it set that way for the Finder and Stickies.
Here is a discussion about the different orientations for virtual desktops:
http://blogs.sun.com/bblfish/entry/whyapple_spaces_isbroken
The best solution would be for Apple, in a future revision, to allow the user to select between the Workspace- or Application-oriented desktops by providing a button in the Spaces pane to choose between them. This might entail a lot of reprogramming, however.

Satellite C850-1KN - Windows 8.1 Freeze

Hi,
I have tried the search function but cannot find the help I require.
My Satellite C850-1KN (windows 8.1) has been freezing a lot recently but I am still able to use the mouse pointer, CTRL + ALT + DEL has no effect and the computer won't do anything, I am forced to shut it down via keeping my finger on the power button or taking out the battery.
I have ran a SFC /scannow check and receive the following:-
"Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them..."
Please find the log in the following post
Sometimes the screen also stays black and will not respond to any inputs, this appears to be happening more and more. If any one can help it would be greatly appreciated.
Windows Event viewer shows 2 critical failures at the time of the last incident, both of which are Kernal-Power and refer to not shutting down cleanly (obviously because I have had to keep my finger on the button).
There are a few "Errors" in the log, the most surprising of which is the Microsoft Bing News app which logged just before the incident, could this be the cause of trouble?
Thanks in advance

Your notebook was delivered with Win8 so I presume you have updated it to Win8.1 version.
Have you updated your machine following Toshiba instructions?
To be honest it is not easy to answer such questions and say for sure what the problem is.
If you have this issue since few days only I recommend you to roll back OS to earlier time using system restore tool just to see if the problem persist or not.
How to do this you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2A03ES0000R01.htm
Do at as first step please and post some feedback.
By the way: have you created recovery disc before you have installed Win8.1 update?

Skype freezes while typing at random times. Window...

I'm using Windows 8 Pro (64-bit), along with the desktop version (not the app). But I also recall having a bit of trouble with this on my laptop (Windows 7 home edition 64-bit) as well.
At random times in the middle of my typing, Skype will freeze. It will remain frozen for a few minutes. When this happens, I usually just minimize it and do something else and check back on it to see if it's working. It always unfreezes, I haven't had a crash yet. However, this is getting to be very annoying. It happens rather frequently and interrupts my chat with friends.
I have already made sure that skype is not running in ADMIN or DEBUG mode, etc etc. I'm also using the latest version of Skype.
What could be causing this? And how might I be able to fix it?

Win 8.1
Using the Desktop version because, well, the modern version is unworkably stupid in too many ways to express.
30-60 second random freezes while typing. No crash. And call still work.
These type of Microsoft FAILS can surely drive a person to insanity.
Why do simple applications like these reduce in performance year after year wile doubling in file size many times over?
Years with this issue occuring and no solution from Skype. I am beyond words

Toshiba Satellite C655 SP4168M freezes while playing a game

So i've been having problems with mi laptop very recently with a game i'm playing (League of legends), the game normally works perfectly, but at random times it just completely freezes (making an awkward sttutering sound) and i have to forcefully shutdown and restart the PC. It doesnt happen ALL the time, but when it happens it's really annoying, and i can either happen once every week, or several times daily. I already repaired the video driver but that didnt help, i was thinking about updating the BIOS; but cant find the correct version for my laptop, and i cant even be sure that's actually the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

try using a program like "Piriform Speccy" (free version), and monitor the CPU temps as you are using the system. If it gets up into the orange and red while watching videos, you may need to apply fresh thermal paste to the CPU.
My old L355 is starting to freeze while watching youtube videos the other day, and just confirmed that the CPU is overheating. Will be tearing it apart hopefully tonight to be cleaned up and have a fresh application of arctic silver on the CPU.

Satellite P300 PSPC4A - Windows 7 / 32 bit post install - freeze on start

This unit was loaded bare with generic Win7 Enterprise from CD and devices not sensed by the OS were loaded from the Toshiba site. On boot, every time, the internal keyboard and trackpad freezes. Plugging in an external mouse allows me to reboot. Post reboot, unit works correctly. Freeze occurs only after a hard shutdown. Ideas?

> On boot, every time, the internal keyboard and trackpad freezes. Plugging in an external mouse allows me to reboot. Post reboot, unit works correctly. Freeze occurs only after a hard shutdown
There are no special keyboard drivers. Keyboard driver is a part of Win 7 OS.
There are just touchpad drivers for the notebook but I dont see any reasons why it should freezes while Win booting
Maybe you should reinstall the OS again just to check if its not Win OS issue

Satellite L650D-10J - Windows 7 won't start

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite L650D-10J, Windows 7 64Bit, 4GB RAM and it won't start Windows 7. It starts and then you see Toshiba logo startup etc. and then it goes to black and it loads up Windows Bootmanager with the following message ;
+A problem to your computer occurred while communicating with a device that is connected.+
+This error may be caused by an external storage device such as an external USB drive, the device while in use, or damaged hardware such as a hard disk or CD-ROM drive disconnect that is damaged. Make sure any removable storage is properly connected and then restart your computer.+
+contact the hardware manufacturer if you still see this error.+
+Status: 0xc00000e9+
+Information: An unexpected I / O error occurred.+
(it was translated out of dutch so there are some sentences that aren't correct.)
I've tried downloading a Windows 7 recovery disc, burnt it on DVD. It works I'll get to choose to set it back when it was working correct (I get an error) or use a Windows 7 from disc (doesn't work). And if I start in safe mode I can see that it stops and freezes at file; disk.sys
Anyone an idea?
Greetings,

Hello
And have you connected external USB device as the error message says? If yes remove all USB devices and try to start your notebook again.
Fact is if you cant start in safe mode your OS is muddled up and the only option to get rid of this is reinstalling Windows.
Are you using the preinstalled Windows 7 version from Toshiba? If yes go into advanced boot menu of Windows pressing F8 key where you can select safe mode, etc. and choose Repair my computer option. Then select Toshiba HDD recovery and factory settings will be restored. Also check this article about HDD recovery:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
If HDD recovery doesnt work you need an original Toshiba recovery disk. If you didnt create this disk just order a new one here:

Satellite L840: Win 8.1 installed as 1st OS but doesn't boot correcty

I have a problem regarding my new Satellite L840
Upon following the steps on installing Windows 8,1 and on the process it said on the screen that its downloading updates and upon restarting it just stays on the windows screen with the loading circles..
How do i go to BIOS ? Tried F2, INS F2, F2-F8 it doesnt work..

>it just stays on the windows screen with the loading circles..
What happen if you power of the unit pressing and holding power button?
Does the notebook boot again?
To access the BIOS, you have to press F2 while powering On the unit.
Note: the notebook needs to be powered off completely in order to access the BIOS. Usually the Win 8.1 enters the hybrid shutdown mode which is NOT the real shutdown
Here more details:

MSI P35 Neo-F (MS-7360): Computer randomly freezes while playing games

Hi there,
I have reached the end of my technical knowledge right now and I'm not even sure if this area of the forum is appropriate. The problem:
While playing higher-end games like Crysis 2, Anno 1404, Mass Effect 2 etc. my computer randomly freezes and the last few milliseconds of sound are being looped on my speakers (kind of like a buzzing sound).
By "freezing" I mean that my computer becomes unresponsive to any action other than pressing the Reset-Button or holding down the Power-Up-Button (no reaction to Ctrl+Alt+Del, Alt+F4, Alt+Tab, no mouse movement... you get it).
There's no exact timing as to when these freezes occur. The fastest freeze happened after less than a minute of playing a game, slowes one (just today after switching to my newer case with better cooling) took about 2 hours.
This freeze only occurs while my System is under load. No freezes while browsing the web, using office programs, listening to music or watching videos.
System Specs:
Mainboard: MSI P35 Neo-F (MSI-7360)
CPU: Intel Core2Quad Q6600 @2.4GHz
RAM: 4x 1GB DDR2-800 Corsair XMS2
Graphics: Gainward GeForce GTX 560 Ti, 1GB GDDR5 VRAM
PSU: Antec High Current Gamer 620W (upgraded from Xilence XP600, 600W)
New CPU Cooler: Arctic Freezer 13 Pro (upgraded from OEM Intel Boxed Cooler)
New Case: Zalman Z9 Plus w/ 4x 120 mm Fans (Upgraded from a Case with only 1x 250mm side Fan)
2 Western Digital HDD (1x 2TB, 1x320 GB)
1 DVD Reader/Burner (unimportant for that error I guess)
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit
2 Screens: 1x 24" Asus VS248H and 1x 21" LG Flatron Wide W2240T
Since this error is bugging me for quite a while now and since this is not the first forum I'm trying to get help from, here's a list of steps i already took to get rid of it, obviously to no good use:
reinstalled games where the freeze occurred
updated all Drivers (including cleaning old versions in safe mode; also tried older drivers)
updated BIOS to v1.A0
Reinstalled Windows
bought new Case and CPU Cooler to improve Air Flow/Cooling
checked Seating of all components (took out, cleaned, reapplied thermal grease where neccessary, re-inserted)
cleaned old case of dust (obviously no problem in the new case, which is 2 days "old")
ran 7 sequences of Memtes86+ without any errors
ran Prime95 without any errors for about 45 Minutes
ran Furmark for 15 Minutes under full load (burn-in test) without any problems, even though my graphics card hit the 100°C frequency-cut level
ran Furmark and Prime95 simultaneously without any problems
took records of component temperatures and system voltages without noticing anything unusual (at least not after i switched to the newer PSU, which is about 1 Month old - yet didn't resolve the problem)
tested with cyclic removal of 1 RAM device to further rule out RAM malfunction
tested with only 2 RAM devices in dual channel mode (Slots 1 and 3)
tried to reduce RAM clock (800 MHz --> 667 MHz) to no avail
checked S.M.A.R.T. values of HDDs, no issues reported
tested without any background programs
raised/lowered voltages to RAM, CPU and Chipset in BIOS to increase logic circuit stability/decrease heat production
I need to mention: After I transferred my system to the new case, i was able to play longer than average compared to my old case. So I am guessing that improper cooling was part of the problem, yet improving cooling obviously didn't resolve it.
Since these freezes are really annoying and nobody could help me resolve this so far, I'm hoping to find some new ways of narrowing down the problem or even getting rid of it here.
Regards
Sebb

Lets be realistic. A system with a 560TI is recommended to have a around 31Amps under full load, a CX500 would be sufficient.
Have you monitored your CPU and memory utilisation ?
As suggested before, test the GPU in another computer to see if the behaviour is the same.
Whew, I thought for a second there that my common sense had left me when I saw that 60-Amp-Post ^^
Yes, I monitored CPU and RAM usage, there is no recognizeable pattern to be seen and it almost never happens under full load.
I will see if a friend of mine can test my GPU on his computer, and I will test it underclocked right away.
Though one more question regarding that: Should I only underclock GPU Core Clock or both Core and RAM clock?

Why does my entire computer freeze while opening or using After Effects or Premiere Pro CS5?

Just built a computer to meet all requirements for Adobe, Autodesk 3ds Max, and UDK, for school.

I use an external component - USB Microsoft Wireless Mouse & Keyboard 2000.
I have, as far as software goes...
Windows 7 64-bit SP1
Adobe Creative Suite 5, student version or what have you.
- I do have several plugins installed as well for After Effects only.
Autodesk 3ds Max 2012
-I have several maxscripts as well as a couple plugins for 3ds Max.
UDK 2-2012 & 3-2012

As for anything else giving me issues I haven't noticed anything besides a previous Graphics Card wasn't supported very well at all with 3ds Max, it would freeze while using the material editor which was fixed with replacing a GTX550 ti with a more compatible GTX480. Thought maybe the upgrade would also solve the fact that almost everytime I go to start up and/or use After Effects or Premiere Pro CS5 my whole system freezes. Whether or not I'm doing anything, it occasionally happened during "Scrubbing" the timeline, but also during the splash load up screen. Would take the time to wait for several minutes but nothing would change. Hard reboot was needed. After countless hours of searching online I stumbled upon what is called an "Unlock" for Premiere Pro/After Effects to allow accelerated GPU and CUDA cores. Simple procedure, seems as if things go faster... When it is working. But still, I encounter freezes on my entire system. It isn't a crash back to Windows or anytihng. Just a complete freeze on the entire system. I have not extensively used other Adobe programs besides Photoshop quite briefly just so I could open menus and force a freeze within 5 minutes and noticed nothing wrong. Which in AE & PP just running through any of the menu windows can quickly cause a sudden freeze.
note* I have alternated shutting off and turning on OpenGL as well as multiprocessing. Doesn't matter, it really doesn't seem to change much of anything.
Alas, I am absolutely sure, after checking and re-checking 80+ hours over the past 2 weeks that yes, everything is updated as far as each individual program, software or hardware will allow me to update them. I have reinstalled Windows as well as each program up to 3 times, and 1 system (restore?) I had Windows dump everything, started from scratch, backed up nothing. To reinstall everything from scratch, while not installed several "Utilities" or software components from stuff like the Motherboard and its XFAST USB/LAN or whatever, thinking maybe it was cluttering up anything.
Please, if anyone has any ideas upon this and could give me advice, whether you notice any other incompatibilities or anything. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
note* I do not have a wired Keyboard or mouse to disable the USB plugin and attempt that route.. at least not yet, its on my list of things to do. Also, I did run Memtest86+ during a boot and it claims that everything there had passed 100%. I am not "overclocking" anything either. I just wanted something I could work smoothly on, that would have decent rendering capabilities. I used to use my girls' laptop which was an HP with 3GB RAM and never experienced crashes or freezes and I could use AE, PPro, 3ds Max with some lag but not any issues. Rendering took forever on it, but I usually avoided that 'cuz it would start heating up pretty fierce. Saved my rendering for school computers where I could. But either way, now I have this expensive piece and it is getting frustrating that I cannot work on it.
note* Also, incase it does help, I have Windows as well as any major components installed onto the C: drive (aka SSD for my system) while all my secondary software, such as Adobe, Autodesk, etc. are all installed directly to my D: drive (or HDD) And everything is set up to go through Windows Firewall as well.

Thanks all. I have just tried a few things, installing them onto the C drive as you all specified as not being one of them. I can understand it, but at the same time i have a classmate who has their software on a seperate drive and it runs smoothe. I'm on my second GPU in 2 weeks, unless I have terrible luck it seems doubtful being that I can run games and a majority of the software no problem. Through further testing around with a corded mouse and keyboard I've noticed the following...
The computer freezes entirely only when I'm performing a "scrubbing" action or using a mouse. Left clicking, scrolling, or moving it around. Otherwise if I do not use the mouse and I make all my actions, such as "scrubbing" in AE via "Page Up & Down" keys, there's no freeze and it preloads the preview no problem.
"Scrubbing" does not load a preview (the green bar doesn't load at all while scrubbing). But, also noticed no matter how smoothe everything is running in 3ds Max as well as PPro, once I start performing a "scrubbing" action with whatever timeline I use, it will definately freeze my whole computer, Windows and all. Hard reboot is neeed.
With having gone through 2 GPU's, done a full memtest via Windows 7 and Memtest86+, there seems to be no issue with my memory or GPU. Like I said, I've run UDK without an issue. Whether the editor or game. The USB doesn't seem like it's the cause, I've used both wireless as well as wired keyboards/mouse. Still freezes, but now only when using a mouse to "Scrub".
Is it possible my motherboard could be incompatible somewhere? I mean, really.. everything is brand new but 2 weeks of troubleshooting.
And I do plan on trying to run my software off the C drive, I just wanted to make sure it wasn't something else, like I said, I've seen and used a computer where it all runs off the D drive and it runs perfectly, actually better on his computer than off the C drive at my schools. So if it is an issue would it lie within the fact that I'm using an Nvidia GPU? Considering my classmate is using a AMD/ATI Radeon or something like that.
Again, to those who replied, your shared knowledge is greatly appreciated, thank you.

Premiere CC 2014 freezes while editing

I'm not sure how common this is, but I know others have complained about Premiere CC 2014 crashing their systems. For me, it freezes after editing for a while. During playback the video will freeze while the audio continues. Eventually the entire program will crash.
Its a shame because there is no way to export this project to Premiere CC, but I can't work this way. Does anyone know a fix for this?
2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
16GB DDR3
Never had any trouble running any other application on my system. My coworkers have the same issue.
