Hi all,
I have a Toshiba Equium A60 Laptop now for under a year.

Yesterday, my laptop started to crash… flashing a blue screen (No time to see what it says as computer Restarts too quickly).

I found that it only seems to crash when the LAN Cable is plugged in…e.g. If I start the Laptop it will start-up as usual but when it starts to communicate with the network/router (as I can see by watching the little blue Screens in the Task Bar Bottom right) it Crashes. I’ve tried a different port on the router but no luck.

My Network card is: Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet NIC

It runs ok in Safe mode and doesn’t crash.

I updated the Driver but and it still does the same.

I then decided to restore my Laptop back to “Day One/Factory Default” via the Toshiba Recovery DVD.

When restored it worked fine all day (had internet access via the network) until I clicked: “Set up a home or small office network” in the control panel. It crashed again the same way…. Now it will continually crash as above.

Could this be a problem with my cable?
Please help…..Any ideas?

Thanks loads,
Shay :4-dontkno

Toshiba Equium A60 crashes

This blue screen and quick crash happens to me each time I connect to the internet, it may take up to fifteen minutes though.
