Toshiba Satellite L655-S5097 Laptop Questions & Answers
My laptop powers up for just a few seconds and
You don't mention if you get any lights on the laptop as it tries to boot up..
Firstly, remove battery, unplug from mains and hold power button down for 30 seconds.
Reconnect to mains and try to boot, if it works ok, replace battery and try again.
If no luck, test the dc voltage at the charger pin, it should be 19 volts ( connect one probe of a multimeter to the inner connection (red probe) and the other ( black probe) to the outer part of the jack.
If this is not outputting 19 volts, try using another charger
Is the DC jack socket loose? If so this will cause it to shut down and the jack socket will need replacing
Check also that the power button is not sticking and (if fitted) the small rubber pin usually near the screen base on the top cover is not sticking in
Remove ram modules, replace one and test it, then the other one to eliminate ram problems
After that, there is a problem with the motherboard

My computer atellite l655-s5097 and
its your hard drive that is freezing .It could be going bad due to viruses or filled up with so much data. could be hardware going out like your dvd burner because it cannot read the data and it overworks itself.Do this go to start then all programs then accessories then system tools then go to system information and take a look at your total physical memory which by what you say should be 4 gb's or 4096 mb's then the next 1 down in available physical memory you should have plenty maybe 2.5 or 3 gigs. make sure you do have total memory of 4 gigs 1st. because a lack of memory on a newer laptop like this will cause this same problem.then when you start up your laptop go into system setup and look for hard drive diagnostics and run it. this will take almost an hour but it will tell you if your hard drive is having problems. you can also even go as far as removing your dvd-rw rom to eliminate that hardware issue. then restart your laptop and keep pushing f8 to bring up your safemode screen. go into safemode because it allows only a minimal amount or drivers and software to run meaning less memory and less because your will only have vga graphics mode meaning big letters. then check for viruses,adware and malware because they also can cause this problem. Well good luck I hope this helps you track down your problem. Hard drive problems im still thinking

Japanese Visa Application with COE denied. Why?
How to Get Employment Security With Correct Japan Work Visa Japan is no different from other developing nations whereby grass seems greener on its side of the pasture. It attracts its fair share of foreign businesses as well as nationals seeking to work within its lands. Albeit many adhere to immigration procedures, some choose to test their limits on the basis of ignorance or defiance. By understanding the different types of work visa in Japan, it assures its foreign workers a continual stream of income with no threat of arrest and deportation. Visa simply infers the status of residence. Citizens obviously have no need of it as they automatically satisfy qualifications to freely reside in their country of birth. As for those of alien status who wish to join the local workforce, there should be a category to match one's requirement. Since most countries strive to improve the overall quality of life, professionals are generally welcomed to contribute knowledge and skill. Unskilled labor is normally not granted a visa to avoid flooding and dilution of the workforce. The visa is awarded in accordance to one's area of expertise. Supported with proof of relevant experience, it is based on the field of involvement whilst working in the country. In the event one's work scope changes from one expertise to another, it is essential to apply for a visa under the new circumstances. Different types of work visa in Japan also apply to foreign companies seeking to conduct local business. Domestic companies based abroad wishing to set up a local point of presence need to provide supporting documents to justify internal transfer of foreign workers. Governmental staff for diplomatic duties is assigned a category for legal residence. Over and above the general groupings, designated activities also garner approval from the authorities. Domestic service for non-native residents and citizens of certain nations on working holidays fall into this category of working visa. This, by no means, is the end of the list as it is best to consult the authorities on which visa serves best.Click Here For More Details: http://japanjobandvisaservice.com/blog/change-your-luck-when-apply-work-visa

Just restore your system from a backup taken before the error code started.
If you have no backup then you need to format your hard disk and do a complete reinstall of all your software.

How to play a DVD on Toshiba Satellite Pro C850
If you know the DVD and the DVD drive is in proper working order, it could mean that the software you are running just may have some problems. Try downloading a copy of VLC (VideoLan Client) this application is free and open source (and no it's not something I created and am just trying to get people to use...it's just something that works great, and completely free) VLC can play almost any video file or DVD that it encounters. If VLC can't play it, I would think it's likely there may be something with your disk or your DVD drive.

My computer does not connect to wifi and only show
Hello,Do you have a wifi card in the computer? It is a hardware part that you need so that the computer can connect to the wifi. If you have that but can't find it in the operating system. I suggest that you either install or update the driver for it. You can use
RadarSync to scan your computer for the available updates of your wifi driver. Make sure that you connect to the internet first using your ethernet so that it will detect the available driver updates somewhere in the databases of the manufacturer. Davidhttp://goo.gl/CxsY9u
