Hold old is the computer? Does it freeze up before it shuts down, if so then the caps on the motherboard are probably bad.

It comes on says file system error and shuts off what can i do reset isnt working

May need to update firmware which can be done using Songbird.
In Songbird if your unit is showing click on you units name.
In the main window click on Tools
there will be a list of options. First try to update the firmware. current version as to date (10-15-2014) is 2.12
If you already have it skip.

DO NOT DO FORMAT unless you want to lose absolutely everything music videos programming of unit. Instead do the restore.device.

Also on the bottom of the unit is a reset button. This also will erase anything you added but not the programming.

My toshiba satellite C660-162 crashes and shuts down during skype video calls,uploading a video on you tube and during downloading a file

you might have to many programs trying to or accessing your computer or the internet at the same time or a virus
scroll to bottom toolbar (bottom of screen) right click select task manager

applications you will see whats running
if you see anything you dont need running select end now and you might uninstall that specific

program if you or computer does not require it to run and
some unnecessary programs that could be jamming up your computer

also under processes see what is ticking over in the background again if you see something you
dont need to be running select end now

your computer might not have enough ram
using video and youtube will put more strain on the CPU central processing unit
Crucial Memory Advisor tool for a list of guaranteed compatible modules
you should always ask for a guarantee on compatability before purchasing any ram and buy working pairs if possible
you might have to many programs running at the same time putting to much strain on the CPU
try uninstalling a few unnecessary programs

hope this helps

No instructions on programming auto shut-off time (feature listed on box).

You have to use the "Auto-Off" feature, which is located on the same button as on/off:
The automatic shutoff time (ASO) can be
programmed to shut off immediately after
brewing (0:00) or up to 4 hours later. The
default shutoff time is 2 hours.
Press and hold the On/Off button to display
current shutoff time. To change the preset
time, press and hold the On/Off button until
the red power light and LCD display begin to
flash. This signals that you have entered the
Set automatic shutoff mode. Set the time
you want coffee to begin brewing by
following the instructions in “Entering Time
Set Mode.”
When the coffeemaker shuts itself off, two
tones will sound.
NOTE: Automatic shutoff may be
programmed either before or during coffee
brewing. If you program the auto shutoff
time after brewing is completed the unit
will automatically account for elapsed time.
For example, if you set the auto shutoff for
40 minutes and 25 minutes have already
elapsed, the unit will shut off automatically
after 15 minutes (40 minutes minus the 25
elapsed equals 15 minutes).

My Kenwood KDC-MP232 entered "protect" mode, & I do't know why

This unit has an anti-theft program that is activated when a code is programed.

At this point forward, the power circuit is monitored, thus when the power is disconnected or drops below 12VDC it shuts down and the code must be entered to reactivate the unit and its functions.

Other circumstances that might trigger the anti-theft shut down are...

Bad power or ground connection to head unit.
A weak or faulty battery/alternator.
A blown fuse.
A sudden power surge, as happens when jump starting another car.

As for your personal 4 digit code, I cant help you with that but some high-end car audio dealers offer a diagnostic service that can reset a coded/locked out unit.

Good luck

Re-load it. OR Take it apart and clean it. Dust is clogging the heatsink by the processor. AMD OR PENTIUM?

Screen goes blank

Maybe the setting of your video display was change to higher setting, and your screen cannot handle the said setting.

When a "safe mode" message appears during opeing, select that options, then at the desktop right click your mouse, chose properties, then setting, then change the screen resolution to lower range.
