Toshiba laptop, freezing and two BSOD's

Hi everyone, I've been dealing with laptop issues for the last week and am running out of ideas, so I thought I'd turn to this forum.
I have a fairly new Toshiba Satellite A660-x running Windows 7.
My issues have been the following:
- Freezing on Windows boot up (I move the mouse and it freezes)
- BSOD - 'Attempt to reset the display driver and recover from timeout failed'
- BSOD - 'A clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor allocated time interval'.
Here is what I've tried so far:
Cleaning vents with compressed air can.
For the display driver BSOD, I tried to updated drivers for NDIVDIA GeForce GT 540M which seemed to work at first, but I have gotten the same error since.
For the clock interrupt, I am not sure what to do. I've heard to reset BIOS but I have no clue how to do that. I also used a program for the BSOD that gave the following dump - 102413-26254-01.dmp 10/24/2013 11:00:48 AM 0x00000101 0000000000000019 0000000000000000 fffff88003165180 0000000000000002 NETwNs64.sys NETwNs64.sys+40445 Intel® Wireless WiFi Link Driver Intel® Wireless WiFi Link Adapter Intel Corporation 14.0.0.113 x64 ntoskrnl.exe+75bc0 C:\windows\MiniDump\102413-26254-01.dmp 8 15 7601 262,144 10/24/2013 11:14:28 AM
I'm able to boot into Safe Mode, but it is getting harder to get to Windows because it either freezes or I get a BSOD.
Any ideas or suggestions? I'm at the point where I might get a USB hard drive to get my files off in Safe Mode and look at a new laptop, but if there are any fixes I can try I'd be all about it.
Thanks in advance.

My Toshiba laptop crashed and I was wondering if there is a way to reload it through itunes

In September 2013 my laptop crashed and someone helped me recover my Itunes library (music, movies & TV). The laptop crashed again but no I think it's the motherboard and/or screen. I have a netbook that I'd like to be able to access everything again but I can't figure out how to do it.
I have my iPod (old school) and it was recently backed up so it probably has everything on it. I'm just afraid to hook it up because I don't know if it will delete everything and just load what's on iTunes now. (one album)
Would all of the information still be accessible?

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everythihg back.
If for some reason you have failed to do this, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

I would like to take a moment and thank you for using the forum, it is a great place to find answers. For you to have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I grasp that your notebook freezes while you are using it. You have done a clean install of Windows and an anti virus program.
Here is a link to Computer Locks Up or Freezes in Windows 8 to assist you.
Have you done all your Windows updates?
Please let me know the outcome.

What does it mean when my laptop freezes and has three loud beeps?

I've been trying to fix my MacBook Pro for awhile now. It started with taking my laptop to the "geniuses" at my local Apple Store. They replaced the logic board. But when I took it home, it made some loud beeps while it was being used. After a lot of drama with the "geniuses", I gave up dealing with them. I shoved the MacBook in my closet and bought myself a windows laptop. Now I have need for the MacBook. After some research, I decided to replace the RAM, since that seems to be the most common problem that causes the three loud beeps. The beeps never happen when you boot up the laptop, but during use. The beeps continue and I'm at a loss for what it could be.
Any suggestions?

Funny enough, I just turned on the laptop to get the info you requested, to find out that it had a kernel panic when I last shut it down. I hope it helps, because I can't make heads or tails of it.

My MacBook Air over the past 24 hours has been freezing in safari and now when I try to open safari the entire laptop freezes and I have to force a restart and can't open safari. What does that mean?

I'm not really sure what's happening. Sometimes everything will be fine and then other times it's the rainbow wheel of death.

That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
If you are running Tiger or Leopard:
Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
/Library/Application Support/Conduit
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
Library/Application support/conduit plugins
Also, as mentioned by Gilli2000:
Library/Receipts - If you read it, it has information in it at the bottom referring extensively to "CT" and "community toolbar".
Maybe it is harmless, but trash those items anyway!
If you are running Lion:
From the Finder Menu bar, select Go ▹ Go to Folder, and in the box that opens write:
~/Library/Application Support/Conduit
Delete the second item if it is there.
Now select Go to Folder again and enter /Library
From the folder that opens, delete the following items if they are there (you may need your login password):
Application Support/Conduit
InputManagers/CTLoader
LaunchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
ScriptingAdditions/ct_scripting.osax
then close the folder. Now select Go to Folder again and write: /Applications/Toolbars
Delete that item and close the Finder windows you opened. Log out then log back in, and you should be rid of it.
Note: Safari does not support any third-party toolbars except those supplied as an extension to Safari via the Extension Gallery.

Uninstalling Toshiba Laptop Checkup & Security Dashboard?

Hello,
I have a new Satellite S855-S5268 and I'm uninstalling Norton so that I can install my AV of choice (Kaspersky Internet Security)
On the official Kaspersky forum and help files, it says that you have to uninstall Norton thoroughly in order for Kaspersky to work properly ("Norton remnants are often a source of problems when installing Kaspersky").
Four programs by Norton/Symantec came pre-installed with my computer:
* Norton Internet Security (I have already uninstalled this)
* Norton Anti-Theft (same)
* Toshiba Security Dashboard
* Toshiba Laptop Checkup
It's the last two that I have questions about. In Programs and Features, it shows that those two are NOT by Toshiba Corporation, but, rather, from Symantec Corporation. In fact, when I click on the Security Dashboard icon on my taskbar, what it does is it shows me a summary of the Norton products on my machine.
When I run a Get System Info report (GSI is a run-on-demand Kasperky tool) after having uninstalled NIS and Norton Anti-Theft, it still lists Toshiba Laptop Checkup and Toshiba Security Dashboard as "Possibly Incompatible Software" (NIS 2012 and Norton Anti-Theft were also listed here before I uninstalled them). See attached screencap
Can I uninstall Toshiba Laptop Checkup and Toshiba Security Dashboard and my computer will still work properly?
Thanks in advance!
Solved!

Update for anyone else who might find themselves in this situation:
I uninstalled both and everything was fine.

Problem: Laptop freezes on battery

Hi since I installed arch to my laptop I have been having problems when I'm using the battery and the wireless (I think).
The problem is that the laptop freezes and I can't move the mouse, type or change to any tty, and then the cpu fan goes crazy, at this point I hold the power button to shut down. It don't happens always, sometimes it happens before the GDM is loaded, sometimes when I'm already logged. Lately I noticed that if I close the wireless interface it don't crash instantly when I'm logged and sometimes it don't crash at all.
For sometime I have been thinking that the problem is my wireless chip (BCM4313) and I have been following that post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=111554 but my laptop is still getting freeze so I don't really know which is the problem.
There is my rc.config http://pastebin.com/E83zsZ4y
My lspci : http://pastebin.com/1pCUTe82
And the message.log of the last crash I had: http://pastebin.com/XvgvF3sF
My laptop is a Toshiba satellite R630-13U
I hope someone have an idea of which is the problem
PD: Sorry for my bad english...

I had a bizzar set of events happen. MSN Messenger was definitely messing up on loading. At the same time I am using a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard which have been working fine. Not certain what happened to drop both at the same time, but they stopped working at the same time I started experiencing problems with Messenger.
It appeared the machine was locked up, when actually it was not recognizing either the keyboard or mouse. Started up in safe mode and used the keyboard on the Macbook. I unistalled MSN Messnger and then realized my other keyboard and mouse were not responding.
Set both of them back up under Bluetooth, installed Adium, and life is good again.
Thanks for your comments.

How do i change my back ground if my laptop freezes every time i open the display setting?

Every time i open my display setting to change my ground my laptop freezes and i have to force quit all my open things. Right now my background is just blue i didn't make it blue it just turned that way when this problem started to occur.

Check these two relatively recent threads related to MBP

Equium A100-306 freezes and hangs

My laptop uses to freeze and hang, I have done windows recovery and reinstalling the windows for 2 times. At the moment the problems are:
The system is very slow, takes ages to come up.
When I use voice chat, laptop freezes and hangs.
Please give me an advise what I should do.

Hi
If you want to have faster start up check which processes and applications start with OS and disable all of them you do not need. The start up time will not take so much time as before. Here some useful tips:
Spyware and adware can significantly slow startup. If your notebook is taking long time to launch, it could be because of spyware or adware. It is recommended to use some anti-spyware/adware program.
Another possible reason your notebook startup is slow: too many installed programs on it, many of which have components that must be launched at startup. Removing unwanted programs will help improve startup performance. To remove a program in Windows XP, select Start, Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs, select the program you want to delete, and click Remove. Unfortunately, programs must be removed one at a time. If in doubt, don't delete.
Windows system tray, located in the bottom right-hand corner of your screen, contains small icons for programs that automatically start with the OS and run in the background and they slow your notebook's startup.
Some system-tray-resident programs let you disable their automatic startup routine. Place your cursor over a program icon you don't think you need to start up automatically and right-click. Select Open, Options, Preferences, or something similar and look for an option that enables the program to automatically start with Windows. Disable the option. The changes should take effect when you restart. If you need those programs you can launch them from the Start menu when they're needed.
Some applications automatically place a shortcut icon in the Startup folder to ensure they launch with Windows. You can put a stop to that. Right-click the Start button and click Explore. Windows Explorer launches with the Start menu selected by default. Click the plus sign next to Programs and click Startup. Shortcut icons will be listed in the right-hand pane. If you're sure you don't need any of the programs to launch automatically, delete or remove the shortcuts from there and then restart your notebook.
Not all programs install an icon in the system tray and run in the background--and yet, they still start up automatically with Windows. You can use Windows' System Configuration Utility to stop programs and tasks from starting up automatically.
Click Start > Run > Type "msconfig" > Choose the Startup tab. Remove the checks from any tasks you want to prevent from automatically launching. Click OK. You'll need to restart for changes to take effect. Click Restart and Windows XP will restart with only the system services and applications running resulting in a very fast logon / startup.
This tweak will disable all non-system startup services and applications so if you have anything you want to run in the background such as anti virus software do not disable that item.
About freezing I can not tell you much. Which voice chat application you use?

Laptop freeze when no pressure

Hi,
I have a strange problem on a M60-CD4 laptop (I know, that laptop model number is strange too!): when I dont push on the casing or the screen, the laptop freeze and if I "repush" on it, it's "unfreezing" at the same place. No error, no blue screen, only freezing laptop ?!? Sometimes when I'm lucky, I place the screen in a position that the laptop work no problem but I'm not so lucky!
Any idea ? Broken motherboard maybe ?!? Any other idea ? Is there service manual where I can find the way to open it correctly to view component ?
Thanks a lot!

I am desesperate. The Datasocket - OK version.vi 19 KB that seemed to work so well (no freeze at all) creates a huge memory leakage as you can see in the attached file. I am only reading a tag (local OPC tag, not even remote tag on another PC's OPC server) and the word document attached shows the issue:
After 15-20min during which no increase of memory is noticed (first picture) the situation starts to worsen. In 12 hours (about 7200 read operations) it reaches a consumption of 65Mb ! (to read everytime the same OPC tag). Something that I never noticed with the Datasocket - NOK version.vi 19 KB that had the freezing issue...
I really do not know what to do.
Thanks for your prompt feedback
Christophe

Two years trying to get Toshiba Laptop Wireless Connection to work

I've been trying for the last two years to try and get the wireless connection on my Toshiba Laptop to work without much sucess. I did for a short time manage to establish an ad-hoc wireless connection from the Laptop to a Desktop and share the internet connection that way but then that stopped working.
I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-15L model no PSU45E-00J005EN. It's the one with the 12.1" screen and running Windows XP Pro sp3.
My Wireless switch on the front of the laptop is turned on. It is also enabled in the software FN F5 Wireless enabled, bluetooth disabled. I don't have Intel ProSet.
Previously when I managed to establish an ad-hoc connection that was using microsofts software. I had to manually enable the Wireless Zero Configuation (WZC) each time though as it always started disabled or stopped even if I set it to start automatically. It was a monumental PITA.
When I try and connect to the home ADSL Wireless Router (Belkin N150) using the Toshiba software I get the error message "another vendor's application is controlling the wireless adaptor".
I get this all the time even if I have disabled Microsofts Wireless Zero Configuration (WZC).
I was thinking Windows was still somehow controlling this even though I have disabled WZC so having read solutions in other posts I have tried going to...
contol panel -> network connections -> wireless connection -> properties -> wireless networks tab -> uncheck "Use Windows to configure...".
But unfortunately there is no "wireless networks tab" in there, all I have is the other two tabs. And since trying to use Toshibas software to establish the wireless connection using their Radar thing, now when I click into the wireless network connection it has the message "Windows cannot configure this wireless connection. If you have enabled another program to configure this wireless connection, use that software."
Can anyone on the forum or at Toshiba help please?
Thanks,
John

Two years? Sorry but I cannot believe it.
If everything is Ok and I mean if there is no hardware problem you dont need longer than two minutes for WLAN configuration.
At first you must be sure the WLAN card is installed properly (device manager).
WLAN card must also be enabled properly (switch > check FN+F8 > check ConfigFree tool).
When he WLAN card is enabled properly (check status in ConfigFree) scan the area using option RADAR in ConfigFree.
Can you find this option?
Can you scan the area?
Is some WLAN visible for your notebook?

It is not easy to say why this happen but I think it is definitely software related issue.
I don't know how many experience do you have with operating systems and are you ready to search for problem or you want to fix this quickly.
If you want fast fix use Toshiba recovery disc and install OS again. With clean preinstalled operating system everything should be OK again.
Otherway follow instructions I found on the internet:
I have few steps here that might fix the issue.
First, I suggest that you boot the computer in safe mode and check; safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not run in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed, follow the steps to boot the computer in safe mode with networking:
A.) To restart the computer in Safe Mode, restart the computer and tap the F8 key for about four to five times. You will see Safe Mode listed in the Windows Advanced options. Select Safe Mode and then press enter.
Now check if you are able to work with your programs, if you are able to boot the computer in safe mode then the problem might be with any of the start-up items conflicting on your computer.
B.) You may have to perform clean boot on the computer, to help troubleshoot error messages and other issues, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This kind of startup is known as a "clean boot." A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
The following link has steps showing how to perform clean boot: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
1) Perform clean boot (Check the link for Performing clean boot)
2) Enable half of the services
3) Determine whether the problem returns
4) Enable half of the startup items
5) Determine whether the problem returns
6) Repeat the above steps until you find out which service or program is causing the issue
After you determine the startup item or the service that causes the problem, contact the program manufacturer to determine whether the problem can be resolved. Or, run the System Configuration Utility, and then click to clear the check box for the problem item.
Note: Please ensure that the computer is set to start as usual by following the step 7 from the article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
If the issue still persists, I suggest that you perform a System File Checker [SFC] scan on the computer, this replaces corrupted system files with the Version of Windows system files on the computer, follow the steps to perform a scan:
I would suggest you to empty the temp folder and later follow the steps below:
i. Click Start>>type %temp% in the search box>>press enter>>delete everything present in the temp folder.
1. Click Start, and then type cmd in the Start Search box.
2. Right-click cmd in the Programs list, and then click Run as administrator.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password or click Continue
3. At the command prompt, the following line, and then press ENTER: sfc /scannow
When the scan is complete, test to see whether the issue that you are experiencing is resolved.
