Toshiba Startup

Hi again. after being hit with the devil system tool virus. and being able to beat it. im looking to speed my system boot up time abit. im wanting to know how to disable the auto start on toshiba programs that came with the laptop but i dont want to uninstall them. i dont want them auto starting ever time i have the pc booted or restarted. this will speed up boot time and lower memory useage.
I have no clue what the programs are but i know i can somehow just no clue how. any help be great. thanx
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Theres afew programs there that im afaird to disable. one is a sound program. so im not going to disable anything. the pc is running good. i UnInstalled and Reinstalled GPU and Sound, Abobe flash and reader. and uninstalled Java.
turned off Superfetch and tweaked some windows settings. Pagefile. setting on device manager for HDD and some other tweaks. so its running good. Battlefield 2 and 2142 run great im gonna say atleast 50FPS even online. and Elder Scrolls 4 runs alright. but still slow. so that tells you how good this laptop is. could be better if it had the APU from AMD but it dont.
Thank you for the reply. im gonna think some more before i turned something off that might cause something to stop working. this is sloved now that i know where to look.

  • Why the disk keeps reading when Satelitte A500-1GL startup

    Does anyone know why the disk keeps reading when the A500 starts up. I'm wondering if in msconfig this has something to do with the Toshiba startup items - if so how many are really necessary?
    The disk is defragmeted and there aren't any hardware issues.
    There's a normal Internet Security so I don't think it's that.

    > do I actually need tempro at all or can it be removed?
    Personally, I don't use this utility at all. It is just update informer, you can find many threads about Tempro updates that leads to the system crash:. such as Bios update. My personnel advice- don't touch the running system. I still use old driver, however, new drivers are already released.

  • Satellite L50D - Boot issues after Hard Drive replacement

    I have just upgraded my hard drive from the pathetic 5400 crod they supply to an SSHD@7200rpm but now have a major issue.
    I initially imaged the os from the old hard drive back to the new drive and have had chronic boot issues (1 in 3-4 boot attempts succeed else it fails at any point (often at the Toshiba startup screen)).
    I've reinstalled from a plain clean Win 8.1 ENT disc (trying to avoid the bloatware) and this has the exact same issue and was what I used to format the laptop fine with previously and worked previously.
    I've tried reformatting and reinstalling (deleting ALL partitions each attempt) in CSM, UEFI non secure and UEFI secure. CSM is a straight never works no go and both UEFI methods have the exact same outcome.
    I've tried with the original restore discs and it seems to work (haven't had time to fully test) but I don't want the bloatware and this should not matter since if I were a customer who forgot to make the restore discs (happens too often) and just had to have a failed or killed hard drive replaced the laptop would now be a door stop.
    This seems as bad as Apple for locking people in :/.
    So I'd appreciate ideas from people please, I'm not sure if there is a prep program that is supposed to be run over a new drive like PS3's etc (I doubt it) but this is driving me up the wall and will be the last time I consider Toshiba as anything other than a joke if there is no fix.
    I've had to replace hard drives a few times in my previous Toshiba laptops and had none of this crod, it has something to do with the UEFI which seems more of a nuisance than assistance at the moment.
    TIA.

    Hi
    In my opinion you should check firstly if this booting issue is related to the new installed HDD or new installed system.
    You said that the notebook fails to boot often at the Toshiba splash screen.
    The splash screen appears while POST (power on self test) procedure. During this test, the hardware will be checked.
    Im wondering if the hybrid SSD/HDD isnt recognized by BIOS during this particular step.
    From my point of few this might be the reason why the system cannot be booted up.
    Another important note:
    The Win 8.1 requires enable secure boot as well as the UEFI boot mode.
    Therefore you should enable both options in BIOS.
    Last but not least check if you are using latest BIOS version as well as latest firmware for hybrid SSD/HDD

  • Qosmio X505-0850 Eco Button + Touchpad SCrolling Broke?

    this happened just after i deleted toshiba's 50 freakin startups, i've tried pretty much everything i can, HELP =(
    worked perfect first 2 days before i tried to get rid of all there spam, and i mean just there startups i didn't touch the TOSHIBA folder in program files.
    pc issue or program i wonder?

    Deleting all of those Toshiba Startups is what caused the problems.  They aren't SPAM, just services to make the various hardware function.  You need to start restoring them one at a time to figure out which ones control the features you are missing. 
    And before you ask, I have no ideas which ones control them.
    If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

  • Internal Microphone suddenly stopped working, help please.

    That is my problem. I have updated my driver, restored my computer to a time where my mic worked. It was working earlier today, then when I restarted my laptop, I had the legendary Toshiba startup issue. Once I got that figured out and got back onto my computer, I got bluescreened. Eventually I fixed my computer, with this last remaining issue. I've never had issues with my internal microphone.
    It's not muted, it's enabled. How can I plug it in when it's an internal microphone? I'm very frustrated. Someone help me. I've been searching for a way to fix it for two hours and I haven't come up with a single solution that's solved the problem.

  • BIOS will NOT recognize CD/DVD

    I am trying to restore a Satellite A105 with the Recovery and Applications CD, but it just isn't working.
    The CD/DVD drive is working fine in windows. The recovery CD will run and I can go through the system restore prompts up until it restarts the device. However, it will simply boot back via the HDD.
    I've gone into the BIOS (CD-ROM-LAN-HDD-FDD) and set it to every boot combination that puts the CD before the HDD and saved it. Nothing. The BIOS will retain these settings the next time around, so that doesn't seem to be the issue. I've tried accessing the icons on the Toshiba startup screen via F12 and selecting the CD icon. The same thing happens. The computer will restart, pause very slightly and proceed to boot from the HD again. I've tried to restart with the recovery CD while holding down C. Same thing.
    As I said, the drive works fine in windows. The boot CD works as well (it spins for a while before starting but then runs fine). However, in the BIOS it just doesn't seem to be recognized. 
    Can someone please help me resolve this issue? 

    Thank you for your help. I tried to reset the BIOS to default settings, however this did not work.
    Incidentally, default BIOS settings have the HDD before the CD-ROM. The Restore CD will reset it back to CD first, but to be safe I also tried manually putting it back to CD first after applying the default BIOS settings. Still no luck with that.
    As far as removing the power cable connected to the CD-ROM, how would I go about doing this? I would be worried about doing anything hardware related without very specific instructions. The laptop is a Satellite A105.
    With the power cable connected to the CD-ROM removed, will the CD still function and be detected?

  • Toshiba Satellite A505-S6973 Windows Vista OS won's startup

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A505-S6973 with Windows Vista OS.
    Recently, the OS would not start up, it will stay at the "miscrososft corporation" logo page forever.
    I tried F8 to start as Safe Mode, the safe mode started but will load some files, and stay on that page forever.
    I tried launch the System Repair, the report is as following:

    I tried to use System Restore, but it tells that it did not find a restore time that is good.
    The main concern right now for me is to get my personal data and files from the computer. I still have other computer to use, so I am not so worried about start up the computer. I want to find out a way to first back up my personal data and files from the computer to an external devices, then try to fix the computer. Thank you.

    The main concern right now for me is to get my personal data and files from the computer.
    Yes, that's exactly what you should do first. Later we'll try to resurrect Windows. This is my favorite way nowadays.
     1. Prepare a thumb drive formatted in FAT32. It doesn't need to be large. This stuff only occupies 130 MB on mine.
    2. Download UNetbootin to create the thumb drive.
    3. Download a Puppy Linux .iso file for the operating system.
    4. Run Unetbootin-windows-xxx.exe and point it to the Lupu-xxx.iso file to create a bootable drive.
    5. When you power on your computer, hold down the F12 key. That should give you the opportunity to choose the boot drive.
    6. For some tips, scroll down to the following sections at this web page.

  • Toshiba registration reminder keeps popping up at startup

    Hi,
    I registered my Portege laptop some time ago. Nevertheless the toshiba registration reminder keeps popping up at each startup of the computer and trying to find a solution.
    How can I switch off this reminder?
    The registration reminder program is not in the program startup list so I don't know where to find it.
    many thanks!

    Hey,
    You can disable the Toshiba registration tool using msconfig. Just navigate to start > run > msconfig. Choose the last tab called startup and check the listed services. You should find a service that starts Toshiba registration tool after Windows started. Just uncheck this and restart your unit.
    Now the Toshiba registration shouldnt start anymore. :)

  • Toshiba Satellite C50 Startup Repair not working

    Right, first off I am not very technologically savvy so apologies if I sound like I've no idea what I'm talking about because, really I don't.
    My Toshiba Satellite C50 froze last night and I had no other option but to hold the power button down to turn it off. When it switched back on again it froze at the start screen as Windows was opening.  Alas, I had no other option but to press the power button down again, this time taking me to the Startup repair screen.  Now I've ran this about 10 times and it keeps running forever, not solving any repair issues at all.  Every time I try to start Windows normally it freezes at the same Windows is loading screen.
    Also I cannot find the recovery disk that came with the laptop and have tried F8 but every option seems to take me to the Startup repair screen again which isn't solving anything.
    Please help!

    There won't be a physical disc, no manufacturer's provide those nowadays. You can access the hard drive's recovery partition, which provides similar functionality, by holding the zero key while booting up, form there you can restore to the out of the box state. That will wipe all data on the drive, but if the hardware is still functional that should resolve the issue.

  • Toshiba Portege M700-S7003X startup problem

    I have a Toshiba Portege M700-S7003X (Part#PPM70U-03M01J; Serial#38084271H). Few days ago while I was working on the notebook suddenly a message showed up to restart the computer for some update purpose. However, when I tried to restart seems to me the computer is crashed. Right now whenever I try to startup it shows up messages: Safe Mode; Safe Mode with Networking; Safe Mode with Command Prompt; Last known Good config that Start windows normally. However, I tried with every option and at every case gets a quick blue screen which doesn't let me really see what's been said and then restarts.
    I would highly appreciate if anyone suggest me the possible ways to solve the problems.
    Thanks!!

    That's a good sign. It usually means the hard drive contains some corrupt files and can be repaired, but it's not easy.
    You should boot to the Recovery Console and try to resurrect the hard drive by running chkdsk /r. See KB297185.
    Unless you have access to a Windows XP installation CD, you will need the downloadable Setup boot floppies. And you may need a PA3109U-3FDD USB Floppy Disk Drive.

  • Toshiba model# PSC2EU-05400L will not startup

    I have a one year old Toshiba laptop that will not startup. Battery is good, power supply is good. green LED is on  left front of laptop.. No fan noise, screen stays black. laptop has only been turned on maybe ten times. Unfortunately it is just out of warranty.
    I don't think my next machine will be a Toshiba if this is not an easy fix.

    If you truely do not hear the fan come on (and you should) or the hard drive (again, you should) when you boot up, and only the green power light is on, then I would think it may be either a power issue or a thermal issue (leaning toward former).  thermal issue usually the computer comes on, then immediately shuts off. 
    have you tried taking the battery out and holding down the power button for 20-30 seconds, then reinstall battery.  try to boot up.  If this doesn't work, try taking the battery out and just booting up with the power adapter plugged in.  If that doesn't work just try battery alone.  Post back

  • New Toshiba 3tb external drive not recognized at startup WIn 7

    My new toshiba 3tb external drive (with wall wart power) is not recognized at start up (Win7). The message I get is that it is a USB storage device but can not be used until it is formatted (I already moved files to it). If I plug it in after start up it's fine and shows up as a toshiba storage device. I've used the 2.0 and 3.0 ports and it is the same problem (it has wall wart power). I have never encountered this problem with any other usb storage device  (an iomega 1tb and a WD 500gb) always plugged in and recognized at start up.
    Thoughts?

    Please provide your complete model number of your system.
    By doing so, we will be in a better position to provide you assistance.
    Thank you,

  • M300 keep getting stuck at startup after running Toshiba Upgrade Asst

    Hi,
    I've just bought a copy of Windows 7. I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor and it recommends me to visit Toshiba page, where I found the link to download Toshiba Upgrade Assistant to prepare my Satellite M300 to upgrade to Windows 7. I managed to download all the required software. Everything was running smoothly up to the part where the Assistant is installing some components and restarted my laptop. The OS went through the usual booting up procedure and there was this "Please wait..." screen just before the login screen, and that screen just seems to run forever. I have tried letting it run for more than a few hours, but the Vista screen was still there, minus the "Please wait" wording.
    I tried booting from safe mode and was able to get into desktop. I was able to run finish the Toshiba Upgrade Assistant from safe mode, although I notice that there weren't any components that were required to install. The ethernet controller was strangely missing. Unfortunately I can't install Windows 7 in safe mode.
    Is there any solution other than bringing it down for to the customer service centre?

    As far as I know Portege M300 is not covered with this Win7 upgrade program.
    Am I right about that?

  • 1 month Toshiba satellite A505 s6033 freezing randomly and blank screen on startup

    Hi,
    My Toshiba satellite A505 s6033 start freezing last night when I was surfing the internet. After pressing 5 seconds or more the power button the computer turned off.  After that I start it back on but all the lights on body worked except the display.
    After few more attempts I pushed arrow down and the power button the display turned on, but the freezing problem is back. So I thought that is a windows problem and I used the recovery partition to restore the state out of the box state. But the display is randomly blank when I push the start button except the other lights, and after restoring the laptop still freezing randomly in or during the windows is loading.
    When I turn it on in safe mode, it works perfectly fine. When I turn it on normally, it freezes almost right away.
    I bought this computer from bestbuy, but I am an Romanian citizen (sorry for my English), my question is : I can use the International Limited Warranty in my country ? Or what should I do to fix my laptop.
    Kind regard,
    Valentin

    First, sorry because of my English, it is not my language and it's been a while since I had to used it.
    This is happening to me, when I bought the laptop I had a few times that it froze but I thought it was something I did, and it happened once or twice in 3 months, for 9 months, maybe 4 times in the last month, it began to increase.
    Then I thought it could be the temperature, and after a while, 2 months, I didn't had time, I bought a external cooler, but it didn't work... By this time my warranty expired... And thinking it could be dirt, I opened the back, but just by removing it I saw it was clean and put it back, I did nothing but opening... And again started looking for what it could be... Yes, I tried looking here, but I didn't find this topic that time, and now that I don't have the warranty I found it...
    Any one here could help me? What should I do? Is there any way to fix it without buying a new video card? 
    I live in Brazil so its difficult for me to buy parts, I bought the laptop in the states when there, here the hardware are expensive... But if I have, I'll buy... If I have to buy a new one, could you tell me if there is a new one that I can buy that has little difference in price for the one I have and it's better?
    PS: Toshiba from Brazil didn't helped me, I just spoke with then...
    I thank you for any help!!

  • Laptop beeps at startup, no POST; Toshiba service ignores me

    Hello
    This is a combination problem.
    Part 1:  When I turn my Tecra A8-S8514 laptop on, it does not post, it just beeps.  I tried reseating the memory; I tried using just one dimm and not the other, I tried removing the battery and just using wall power, I tried just using battery power - none of this helped.
    Part 2:  I called Toshiba for support.  The laptop is under warranty.  Support told me someone from "Nexicore" would call me within 6 business hours to schedule an onsite repair.  When no one called, I called Toshiba back.  They asked me to call Nexicore and ask about the visit.  When I called Nexicore, they had no record of any request by Toshiba to service my laptop.  I then called Toshiba back;  this basically started the process over from the beginning.  This repeated 4 times, each time Toshiba assuring me that this time it would work.  I asked Toshiba for a confirmation email that they had placed the order with Nexicore; it never came.  I called Toshiba sales; I called Toshiba customer relations;  they both said there was nothing they could do.  Last time I called Toshiba tech support, they said they had elevated it to a level 3 tech support and that the level 3 technician would call within 24 hours.  That didn't happen (of course!). 
    How do I get my laptop fixed?  Thanks in advance for any advice.

    It sounds like your motherboard has an intermittent problem.  If you can solder, you can try replacing the BIOS chip(they sell replacements on eBay), but you have a 50/50 shot of it resolving your issue.
