So, about two years ago, I made the life changing choice to sell my gaming consoles in order to build my first gaming rig and leap in to the master race in what was ultimately one of the best choices I've made in my life. While I was getting so sentimental, I came across my old laptop, which was my daily grinder when I was in High School and first getting in to PC Gaming. It's a Toshiba Satellite L50D-A with 4gb of DDR3 RAM, a 500gb HDD and an AMD A4-5000 APU with Radeon HD 8330 graphics. While I was looking at it, I thought "You know what? Screw it. Let's overclock this bitch." Long story short, I kept going. And going. No cooler pad, sitting on my lap. 4085 MHz core clock as compared to its original 497 and still sitting at 57 degrees Celsius while I played multiple games of Counter Strike. So what do you guys think of this? I don't overclock a whole lot, so I'm honestly not sure if this is impressive, but I'm quite surprised that such huge overclocking room has gone completely unnoticed in a generally low end processor. Linus Tech Tips Video perhaps???

So i have 2 Laptops (both Toshiba), there a few years old, about 2 or 3 i believe. They both run at Windows 8.1, and now I've been wanting to use them. This was happening before but didn't care as much until now. One of them (which is the older model) doesn't even boot. The toshiba logo and loading screen is working but when its goes to Windows, its just a black screen. And you can tell its on and the screen looks bright. Also, I've tried to go into the bios and put in a Windows 8.1 32 bit disc in and make it boot off the DVD Drive, no luck. I don't know whats wrong The Newer model, The toshiba loading screen works, and it actually boots Windows. BUT, after about 20/30 seconds, its restarts it. Screen goes black for a second, and windows boots up again (loading apps and screen), then every or so 10 seconds, it keeps rebooting. I've also tried the Windows 8.1 disk things, but no luck again. Just went to the windows sign in and continued on doing the same thing. Can someone please help?!?!?! Thanks

Just a quick topic for anybody that has experience with Toshiba hard drives. I've found one place that says they're good, and that's a single Backblaze article. Backblaze has been known to treat hard drives horribly in their "storage pods," buying external HDD's and tearing them out to test them as normal internal ones, ect. so I don't really trust them. The failure rate on the Toshiba drives was low, which is fine, but I would like a second opinion. I couldn't word my search specifically enough to get good results. All I found was articles based on the Backblaze 2015 thing, which doesn't even include Toshiba. User reviews are scarce, but what I could find said they're good, with of course the people super angry theirs were DOA. So, any of you guys have experience with Toshiba HDD's?

Hi. A while back I got an old Toshiba Satellite M70 PSM73A-00K007 from my cousin. I also got the original restore DVDs so yeah, yippee. I want to try a newer OS on it and see how it runs, mainly something like Vista. Only, I can't find drivers. I've been to the Toshiba Australia website and they have no M70 drivers WHATSOEVER. I found the Canadian website but they are all completely different models. Is there a way to get the drivers off the original restore CD or can someone get a link for me please? I wanna try this and if it doesn't work, I will clean install Windows because of bloatware etc. Thanks, Alpha.

Currently, a X300 5TB hard drive costs $151 at Micro Center and I'm totally tempted to get it, plus I can reach a MC store via transit. Based on experience, the 1TB Toshiba laptop hard drive inside my PS3 is still alive and reliable after a year, but when it comes to desktop hard drives, people like it and don't. Currently, my PC just needs an archive HD, nothing too fancy. Anyone have input with this series of internal hard drives??

So I was using my laptop normally typing on word for my coursework. I needed to open a blank file as I had to create another document. What happened next is that the whole laptop froze and a couple of minutes later came up with a blue screen. While it was blue screening, the power on the laptop run out. After I started the laptop again, I ended up with the image attached. Now, I have an idea of how to fix it, but I need to know if what I'm about to do will not mess it up even more. When I get home, I will make a backup of all my files. From there I am planning on replacing the file by copying it over from another laptop that has Windows 10. Will that work or will it mess up even more? I do not have any Windows discs for some reason ( at least I think I don't so) and I do not have a cd drive on that laptop. Is there any other way to fix it? Sorry for bad formatting but I am on mobile.

Infinite booting screen on my Toshiba Satellite C50A-03F... I started to have a long booting time and I tried testing the hard disk but it was fine. I have no malware or viruses on it but it just decided "Nope! No retro gaming here kid" and quit on me. I tried booting in safe mode and booting from an external disk but the thing is just dead. I literally cleaned my logitech keyboard before it booted. I took off every single key and took a 12 minute jog and nothing. After a few hours it finally booted and that was the last time I would see my desktop for 5 days. Its just murdered by its own OS. Help?

Today I tried to boot up my Toshiba Satalite C55-C5286 laptop. I was greeted by a massive error in the bottom and left side of the screen. It contained vertical lines and multi color bars at the bottom. I have attached a picture. My brother who has the same laptop is having the issue also. Both our laptops were opened on the same day in December of 2015. I have not dropped it. Is anybody else having this issue? Any suggestions?

Okay so i have an Old Toshiba Satellite P875-S7310 link will be provided. This beast for it's time has lasted longer than any laptop i had which could handle light or even moderate gaming depending on the settings. Due to toshiba no longer providing driver support as well hardware slowly starting to die in terms of the ram ports and Wifi network card. I am at the point where i am needing a new Laptop PC for all my business stuff as well as personal use. The requirements need to be similar to the specs that this laptop currently has LED keyboard, 17inch screen, blueray player, bluetooth, and two hard drive slots with modern up to date specs. I don't know whats out there anymore and my old go to Toshiba has drastically changed in terms of market with high performance laptops of this size and caliber fading from there Repertoire. i am forced to look elsewhere for a laptop i need that will last longer than 3 years with continual driver support. So does anyone have any good recommendations based on my requirements and my previous laptop Specs which i will give down below? Perhaps you can look at the laptop and see what will be a suitable upgrade specs to newer laptops in the market. Anyway i just thought i'd ask here given the community base. http://support.toshiba.com/support/modelHome?freeText=3478503 -
Recently, I did an upgrade from 6 GBs of 1600MHz RAM to a 16GB kit of Corsair Vengeance RAM clocked in at 1866MHz. However, when checking CPUID, it only shows that 1333MHz is being used, even though Task Manager insists it is using the full speed of 1866MHz. I included some screenshots to show. What is even weird is that at one point, the ram WAS running at the full speed because DRAM read 933.3 MHz. After that boost, it just fell to 665.3 and stayed there. Since this is a laptop, I can't change the XMP profile and set it to use the correct clock speed. My BIOS really only lets me change the boot order, time, and some other really basic stuff. Is my computer using the full 1866MHz, or is something going on? Can I fix this somehow? I included a few other screenshots that might help. Specs: AMD A8-6410 @ 2.00 GHz AMD Radeon R5 m230 with 1 GB of dedicated VRAM. 16 GBs of Corsair Vengeance DDR3L RAM at 1866MHz 1 TB SSHD Toshiba Satellite C75D-B7100 (upgraded to hell)

source: http://anandtech.com/show/10098/market-views-2015-hard-drive-shipments While no one is writing off the PC market entirely, since it's heyday nearly a decade ago the PC market has been in a slow decline for some time, and that decline has yet to bottom out. Sales of personal computers declined by roughly 25 – 30 million units year-over-year, hitting an eight-year low in 2015 due to economic trends, weak international currencies, and competition from tablets and smartphones in some markets. Shipments of PC components naturally dropped alongside weak PC sales, but hard drive sales in particular have made for an interesitng observation: for 2015, declines of HDD sales greatly outpaced the regress of the PC market. Based on estimates from Western Digital and Seagate (see counting methodology below), the total available market of hard drives contracted by nearly 100 million units year-over-year in 2015. as the number of HDDs shipped decrease, the overall capacity of HDDs shipped in 2015 rises: HDD average prices have stabilized: so what exactly is happening? my take: the very 1st thing that comes to mind is the increasing popularity of SSD, and you could be right the other thing is that OEM products, from desktops to laptops, saw a decrease in sales products (laptops) that did sell were most likely incorporating a form of SSD: a 2.5" SATA or m.2 to m.2 PCIe you can see from the graphs that the capacity of HDD shipped increased significantly, what tells me is that people instead of buying 2x1Tb (for example) they go for the bigger ones RAID5 is no longer a viable option as capacity of drives increased you can also see, from the graphs, that NAS and enterprise grade HDDs have seen an increased number of units sold - it's quite possible that instead of buying "consumer grade" HDDs, people now buy NAS or even higher rated HDDs in the end, HDDs aren't going anywhere:

Hello, I am having some issues with my laptop (specs below). I don't play any triple A titles, mostly just league of legends, so this laptop was adequate. I have owned the laptop for about six months and haven't had any other issues. Recently I have noticed some weird fps drops. It usually runs at about 60-70fps but randomly it will drop to 20. I figured it was background programs running, downloading updates, etc... so I decided to do a fresh install of windows. My performance did increase significantly with the fresh install and I was able to get a consistent 120-160fps (kind of strange). However, it would still dip down to 20 or lower in-game. I download afterburner to check out the GPU usage. I found that my GPU was running hotter than I expected, but it was spiking to zero. I have never had any thermal issues in the past six months so I am doubting that that is the issue. I will include a screenshot of afterburner while in a league game below. I have also heard that it could be because of lack of power to the GPU. I have a mechanical keyboard, mouse, and my laptop stand fan connected via USB. I also have an external monitor attached via HDMI. Again, nothing has changed recently except for the fresh install of windows and all of my settings are the same. I am truly stumped by this throttling and any help would be greatly appreciated! PC Specs Laptop: Toshiba Satellite S55-B5268 CPU: i7-4510U GPU: Radeon R7 M260 RAM: 12G

I'm hoping to see more competition in the image sensor buisness given the moves Nikon, Canon and Sony have been taking to improve image quality And other aspects that are now being introduced to not only DSLRs but phones, point and shoot and mirrorless cameras.

I have just bought a new pair of Shure SE425 earphones (fancy professional isolating ones) for use playing in a band as well as at home. However, when I plug them into the audio jack of my laptop (Toshiba P50) I get a quiet hum sound most of the time. The hum is only there when an application that uses audio is open, for example Spotify, or when I visit a watch page of Youtube in Chrome. I haven't got any hum when using my earphones connected to my phone. The hum is independent of the Windows volume control. I have tried unplugging the power cable and all other peripherals to see if there is a grounding problem, but the hum was unaffected.

Hello guys, I recently bought a new SSD for my PC to use as an OS drive and so far the boot times and program launch speeds are way faster than they previously were on my old seagate barracuda 1TB (is it a good HDD btw?) But there is one major crippling issue with this SSD and I don't know if it's a hardware or software issue: every time I need to writ files bigger than a few GB to it, the transfer speed slowly drops after a few seconds then it stops then my whole computer freezes... I can still use the mouse but not launch Task manager or anything else. I have never seen anything like it on the web or form personal experience, ever. Please answer fast guys as I tried to transfer my Steam folder to it and it crashed in the middle of it and I will wait for a fix to resume the moving. It's a Toshiba Q300 SSD, I know it's not very good but that's all I could afford. It also freezes every time I tried to benchmark it on CrystalDiskMark too... odd. Thanks for an in-depth answer on what could cause this and the fix for it. Regards

I was asked to recover some important files for a family member from an HDD that is supposedly unallocated according to windows disk management which isn't true because it was a boot drive. Obviously something is wrong, maybe a damaged partition, sectors, or maybe a damaged main board. So my coworker let me use his flash drive so that I can boot into Linux and use Testdisk 7.1. This is my first time using it but I've familiarized myself with it a bit so far and when I attempt to copy files from this HDD, it fails to copy any files even though I can see the files. Is there any other way to obtain those files? It's a 500GB Toshiba laptop drive MQ01ABD050.
