• Portege R700-184 freezes + high speed fan

  Hi all

  I am a happy owner of a unused R700, bought in conditions under renovation.
  But as far as I can see, it has not been used since around 2011, and judging by the box was stored in a warehouse and was used.

  I installed Windows 7 64 bit I need to use large amounts of RAM in programs such as Photoshop and Sibelius

  However before I did upgrades its been hanging about once a day and the fan speed increases up and stops.

  The first two times, he was just sitting idle and the fan went crazy and it had frozen.
  I have looked everywhere and downloaded the drivers for the fingerprint reader.

  However, he began to do coming from sleep and Hibernate sometimes
  I was wondering if someone would care to shed some light on how to solve all of these problems,

  I love the style and the laptop and really looking forward to getting aid to the University, only it's a bit annoying when it freezes.

  The specifications are:

  i5 560M
  8 GB Ram
  HARD DRIVE 320 GB

  Hello

  I found very interesting paper Toshiba intermittend hang up or freeze machine (with possible high rotation FAN) on Windows 7-32 Bit / 64 Bit
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB0C032L0000R02.htm

  It seems that this is caused by the finger printing software and it s highly recommend to update your
  Toshiba Fingerprint Software and INTEL ME Firmware

  Personally, I don t use the fingerprint and disabled this device in the Device Manager.

  PS: in case there is a more recent BIOS for this device, try to update the BIOS as well.

• Tecra M9 - freezes on Windows XP and 7 (with high rotation FAN)

  We currently have 2 Tecra M9 the problem that is described here:

  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB0C032L0000R01.htm

  This also happens on Windows XP 32-bit (Win 7 is a 64-Bit system) and each time with high rotation FAN, the solution written in the KB does not help because after uninstalling the fingerprint software, it still looks!

  But we also have Tecra M9 machines where Windows XP and Windows 7 are running without this problem, a suggestion how to avoid this freezes?

  * Edit *.
  Today same problem with a Tecra A 9 (with Windows 7 64-bit)

  Hey,.

  All laptops have the same hardware configuration, or is it different?

  I think that sounds like a hardware malfunction, so an authorized service provider can help you get rid of this.

  Have you ever tried an update of the BIOS and load default settings?

  Before that happened, as I used to be able to use it for a while, then something relaxing blue screen, sometimes the laptop doesn t even see s it.

  Can anyone throw any light on the problem?

  Hello!

  Have you tried the Drive Fitness Test as suggested Akuma? You can check the HARD drive for bad sectors.

  CHKDSK isn't identical to the DFT and it can t detect errors on the HARD drive. Please run DFT to determine if the problem is the HDD, or not associated with.

  Abolfazl,

  I'm not an expert "fan".  I am not a fan-only diagnosis, but you may certainly a complete diagnostic on the computer system to find out what you can about the condition of the equipment.

  Step 4: Test the hardware failure

  If the problem persists after you have cleaned the vents and to move the computer into a cooler room, a piece of hardware may be damaged. Test the computer to see if any hardware, such as memory, processor or graphics hardware, have failed. Laptops more than HP and Compaq have diagnostic software to check hardware failures.

• 2015 Macbook Pro 2.8 GHz > 16GB RAM 1 TB > PCIe SSD > overheating with Thunderbolt Display 27 "> Constant MAX RPM fan speed

  Hello community,

  First of all, I want to congratulate Apple on the construction of such a laptop well. It is a luxury product that is clearly desired by most people, which I understand very well that he's a new owner. But entering the heart of the problem that I face outside this machine being an external engineering masterpiece.

  Professional background:

  I'm a computer engineer / scientist / programmer by profession. I am currently employed at Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) as a Senior Consulting Engineer level IV for their BIG Data Software Division. Yes, I program (Java and c#), scripts (powershell, batch and SQL), solutions architect, design, to test software and debugging, implement large enterprise-level solutions ranging from a cluster of 2 mirrors servers-to-of thousands of servers to multiple clusters (even from a perspective of work station of the missions of deployment from 200 KB - to - 50 jobs in the world) work with SQL databases on a daily basis, working with storage devices (SAN mutli-million dollar NAS and DAS), provide an infrastructure troubleshooting and problem resolution, have 8 international recognised certifications, a degree of master of science and involved with concerts on the side as well as build computers as a hobby. My computer knowledge is vast and my RESUME goes beyond what I have briefly described. It is important that I give this background to demonstrate that my level of computer knowledge is beyond the scope of this post.

  Laptop Usecase:

  Recently I bought mid-2015 Macbook Pro 15 "2.8 GHz Intel i7 quad core, AMD dedicated GPU, 16 GB of RAM, 1 Portable SSD PCIe TB from an authorized Apple dealer. To maximize the beauty of this gem, I also bought a monitor Thunderbolt Apple 27 "due to its ability to offer a dedicated gigabit NIC and additional USB connectors. Basically, the screen acts as a central docking for the laptop and offers additional i/o that does not have the laptop (somewhat a disappointment that it's called a 'PRO' for laptop - this can be discussed in an extra thread).

  I will mostly use the laptop for tasks related to work as operating on dozens of remote servers via RDP, using office 2011 and 2016 Lync, Eclipse for Java programming, access the HPE intranet for related tasks at work, set up conference calls, connection with clients remotely via WebEx or TeamViewer and typical everyday computing. For fun, I'll use the laptop to compose music through Logic Pro X, browsing the Web, doing work with Photoshop/Lightroom/and other products Adobe, Web browsing, Email, Youtube, NetFlix, coding, and other basis for computing tasks.

  Question:

  I am primarily an engineer Windows to the heart and don't work well with Unix/Linux, so forgive me if certain acronyms and terminology is slightly outside when it comes to the OS.

  The question that I am currently facing is how HOT and high cell phone VOICE gets during very little use. It seems that, given the 27 "Apple Thunderbolt connected display cause heating and the fans to be excessive and loud. 'A little' work around the question I unplugged the lightning poster power adapter and have dedicated the trendy laptop adapter. It 'a bit' reduces the amount of heat generated, which reduces the speed of the fan to be a little less quiet. However, the noise level of fans and heat is not reduced enough to convince me!

  After the control process during the time of the laptop being extremely strong and warm, I noticed the only vivid process is the process of "kernel_task". However, I debunked this theory by leaving the unit to return to a normal state, that required me disconnected the Thunderbolt display, and the process ran again without all the negative effects of heat and noise.

  So, why Apple would create a laptop that indicates the external monitor is fully compatible, can support up to 2 external displays with no problems and provides a support for this configuration, if there are any other problems when connecting?

  
  

  * Please do not provide responses that I have received a bad laptop or a bad monitor. Appears not to be the case because when I am doing absolutely nothing on the machine, heat is minimal and the fans are 'enough' quiet, even when connected to the Thunderbolt display. However, even simple web browsing on the Thunderbolt display forces do MAX out fans and heat is generated quickly.

  I love this laptop. His elegant, fun to work on, is luxurious and is a potential item that meets all my needs. But I just can't justify spending more than $4 K on a configuration that will cause problems and significantly reduce the lifetime of the laptop.

  1 should I return the laptop and love at first sight appear and waiting for Skylake edition which will be released in the coming months (energy consumption reduced, rising in power and performance, and (?) one possible different GPU that excels much better than 'crap' AMD GPU?

  2. or should I paste and see if a solution or resolution is proposed to the issues that I am experiencing?

  3. I see the same problems all over the internet. Anyone else here has the same problems?

  4. why Apple would invest in this GPU 'cheap' for such a machine power? AMD? Really? (< (less="" than)="" $150="">

  5. How can I host a Lync call with clients when I hear more the laptop that I can hear them?

  My thoughts:

  I spent $6 000.00 on the construction of an incredible machine at home. It has an Intel i7 5960 X Octa-Core processor, nVidia GTX 980, 64 GB RAM Corsair DDR4, 12 TB of disk 7200 RPM, a 512GB SSD for the OS and temporary storage, power 1200 Watt, card reader 5 in 1, a player Blu Ray optical blazing fast, liquid cooling, a Premium Asus Sound Card, the card mother 'best!' on the market (I finished this statement that fans just went back to MAX RPM0 - maybe) because I'm throwing my personal build an Apple forum?), a mechanical keyboard, mouse laser with 12 K dpi and five monitors 24 ".

  I was willing to spend that money on a laptop of luxury that I can travel with, but is it really worth what I'm going through? Also, others on the Internet said they have returned their Macbook Pro for the same model without the dedicated GPU and no longer meet the problem. BUT why someone would invest $3 K in a machine without a good graphics card? IT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME.

  PLEASE, I BEG YOU! Can someone help APPLE me this question?

  If I am not convinced to the contrary, Apple then lost me as a customer forever and return to Windows, I oppose the $4 500.00 I spent. If I am convinced to stay, then Apple will get $4K out of me at all times every 3-4 years, I invested in most any software.

  Also, if I can post a video showing you what I'm listening to, then you will be in shock. Honestly, I'd like to keep this machine, but I need help to understand what is happening and what can be done to correct the problem.

  Thank you

• Satellite A300 DVD tray will not open and cause high CPU utilization peaks

  Hello

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300 - 1 MM and I have a problem with the optical drive (Mat * un DVD Ram Uj880as):

  DVD - RAM plateau sometimes refuse to open. The LED lights up briefly, but still nothing. Windows recognize the drive but the plateau of refuses to open. Eject commands the position of work and management of the computer-> disk management will not work. I can open the tray manually but the optical drive will not read any cd/dvd. No error code in return.

  When that happens it cause peaks of high utilization of the processor (from 60 to 100%) in the System Idle Process. Just stop and restart it solve. After that, the laptop also runs fine and the optical drive.

  I replaced Win7 32-bit with a 64-bit version and the problem persist.

  Help, please. Thank you.

  I have the same machine with Win7 32 bit and use several players. Everything works perfectly. On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what may be the problem. The configuration of your laptop is not known to us, and we don t know how you set up your operating system and additional applications are preinstalled.

  Maybe stupid advice now, but you must install recovery image original Vista that you got with the functionality of your laptop and test with the factory settings. If the same problem occurs we can chat about it.

• Bus Microsoft UAA for High Definition Audio driver is causing high physical interruptions

  Hello

  I am running XP SP 2 on Intel DH55TC motherboard, processor i5. Audio class driver high definition UAA translates material interruptions high that uses up to 10 to 12% of CPU. Interruptions goes if I uninstall the UAA Bus driver through Device Manager. But this also turns off audio driver RealTek which means I hear either.

  I tried to update the driver UAA for Version 1. 0a, but still material interruptions will not disappear. Please help how to solve this problem.

  I discovered the root cause of the problem. It is with the Intel motherboard and not the driver from Microsoft.

  I have upgraded to Windows 7, but still saw the interruptions. So I decided to live with the question. I disabled the UAA driver through Device Manager which would stop the interruption and the sound. I would allow him only when I need to hear the sound. But a few days back, I encountered a new problem. The computer began to turn on and off several times even when I do not press the power button. When it is connected, it would auto start, stay on for a few seconds, then shut down and once again! This cycle repeats.

  Then I took it to the shop where I bought it. They said that there is a problem with the motherboard. As it was covered by the warranty, they sent it to Intel and made me a replacement in a few days. Now with the new motherboard I don't see material interruptions. The CPU performance remain at 0 or 1 in the Task Manager.

  If someone has the same problem, the issue is most likely with the hardware (motherboard) and no software (device drivers).

• HP Pavilion G6 2252so closing down due to the high heat (fan was cleaned up)

  I'm trying to fix a G6 model due to heat issues. The laptop is about 1 year. From what I have read on the internet, it is mainly due to the accumulation of dust. I told the owner that this was not covered by the warranty and offered to help with the cleaning of the fan. I completely cleaned the fan (incl. Remove the fan cover) and change the thermal paste on the processor. The problem persists. With the Speccy program, I read time of departure. for CPU to 90 degrees celsius. It's very different when the laptop shuts down. Sometimes it happends fast, at other times, he can run for hours. Even if the processor is completely cold, you can stop even before windows starts correctly. I managed to see the temperatures over 150 degrees celsius which should be alarming high. Even 90 degrees seems VERY high to me. The air blown by the fan seems not hot. It is only moderately hot and adjusts it fan speed according to the temperature. He begins to rise from more than 100 degrees. 90 to 99 degrees it runs pretty slow.

  If I try to go into the BIOS, I have only seconds before the closed laptop.

  From my point of view, he owes me two temperature sensors not working not properly, or the manipulation of temperature sensors is misinterperet, or simply the cooling system which is default. I don't know how the cooling system. The seat has a cobber lead wires for the heater and the fan. The tube contains a fluid? The liquid could somehow have vapourised?

  Be warm and helping the owner canceled its guarantee, now that I've had the dismantled oidissement?

  I tried to havn't updated the BIOS, because I'm afraid I'm going to brick the laptop, if it goes out during the process.

  Where is the temperature sensor placed on the Board? Is the sencot'en CPU built in or is it place in over/under it?

  How can I help the owner more far.

  Best regards

  Frank

  @FrankH82

  Hello again. I had actually read what you have written, but included these pages although I knew you did a large part of him he was already comprehensive, but also a reference to the point in case there was something on the picture in one of the documents that you may have missed, as a task to clean. I also realized that the BIOS update has been in the process as well, but guess you wouldn't do that, according to your previous statement, and that's understandable. I have not updated the BIOS, either when the PC has tendency to overheat and stop in the process (and brick it).

  In addition, there is the part about hardware failure analyses. From what you describe, it seems to me that the fan does not work as it should and is the likely source of the problem. If the unit is running too hot that you mention and the outgoing air flow is not so hot then there isn't enough air stream passes through. If instead it turns out to be a sensor problem, which is most likely going to require a replacement of the Commission.

  I have included the Service of Guide so that you can see how disassemble the unit safely if something had been missed in your household, and also, so you should have access to the parts list, if it turns out that the material is the source of the problem, since it includes the reference numbers for various sections that are replaceable by the customer including the fan and the heat sink (, motherboard, etc.) I have also included in part to answer your question on heat sensors that you request that are not listed as replaceable parts by the discreet.

  With respect to the copper pipes, they are units normally sealed with a small amount of distilled water inside at less than the normal pressure to reduce the boiling point of water, sort of way, it is meant to vaporize to help dissipate the heat. The only reason why the liquid inside would be gone is if the seal in the hose is damaged. If this is the case then it should be replaced.

  Now at this point, other than hardware problems as possible, as the system of cooling or the motherboard, which might need replacement, you can also look at the possibility of a cooling plate to increase the airflow. I myself for one of my laptops that I have left my son to use. He was very helpful while working in a warmer room in summer. It could be a quick thing to try so to make reliable unit until the likely hardware problem is resolved.

  Finally if you don't find that it is the material that needs to be replaced you should try calling the technical support to the 800-474-6836 line.

• Windows Vista - update causing high memory usage

  I got the pages of updates over the past two years. I think the volume of updates had a negative impact on the use of memory and the computer takes an extremely long time to boot and load anything. Windows creates a record high every day useage, although all similar products Office software have been removed. I took it home and it should work fine. There is no Add - ons, with the exception of a printer.

• Windows Update causes high CPU AND not let me install Windows 10

  Windows 7 update has several issues:

  1 Windows Update Service causes the CPU usage high - CPU usually works 50% or more with a single SVCHOST.exe running.  I click with the right button on the SVCHOST entry in Task Manager-processes and saw all the services that SVCHOST is still running.  One at a time, I stopped and restarted them.  Finally, when I stopped the Windows Update service, the cpu immediately fell to almost nothing.  I rebooted and tested several times, and each time, it was Windows Update service that was causing the high CPU.

  2. Windows 10 Upgrade Advisor says I could upgrade to Windows 10, and get the icon Windows 10 is in the toolbar.  But it has failed to install several times.  Now, after stopping and restarting the service of updating (and I checked, it is started), the window get Windows 10 rises, is empty and goes.

  3. I ran the Update Diagnostic and got 1 error:

  Windows Update error 0 x 80070003(2016-04-04-T-04_56_09P)

  the Details of the Diag Windows Update window said:

  RootCause: RC-DataStore

  Error code: 0 x 80070003

  4. I tried to launch the 'Fixit' for update, but it did nothing.

  5. I tried to update Windows Update WindowsUpdateAgent30 - x 64 .exe Agent,

  but it fails with this message:

  "Windows Update Agent Installer has met a fatal error"

  6. when I try to start Windows Update-check for updates, it displays the dialog box "check for Updates" and activity indicator green runs and runs and runs for more than 10 minutes but nothing happens.  And when I check the view update history, it shows no updates, even though I know that I've run a LOT of updates in recent years.

  7. I thought to reinstall Windows 7.  I went to download from Microsoft, and when repair installation it activated my key it says that it wasn't a retail version, so check with the supplier (in this case HP).  I checked with HP and they said that this machine was is no longer supported.

  8. on the way I've renamed the folder C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution-Windows SDOLD, force it to create a new (probably why it does not find the old updates).  IT did not help.

  So it seems to me this machine is expandable to 10 Windows (it meets the specifications and the Advisor to update Windows-10 said yes and installed the toolbar).  But something is wrong, probably with Windows Updater, and now nothing will be update or upgrade.  And I can't get a new copy of Windows 7.

  So, any thoughts?  I'm out of ideas.

  All I can say is to ensure that you have the latest Net framework installed manually 4.6.1

• Pavilion G6 - 1061ee BIOS update error causing the extreme fan noise

  Hello

  It been a while since that HP has completed a new update of the BIOS for my Pavilion G6-1061ee, I got v f.63.

  But now, they have made a new update of BIOS that is v f.65 I downloaded the file (the insydeFlash BIOS update) and when I run it and press START, my system freeze suddenly and EXTREMELY increase fan noise, it's like my CPU usage is 300% then in a few moments, the system shuts down and I could not be able to turn on the computer again , So I had to unplug the AC adapter and remove the battery then return everything back to be able to turn it on.

  So can anyone help me with this problem.

  OS: 8 64-bit Windows

  RAM: 8 GB (Original was 4 GB... And added another 4 GB)

  CPU: Intel (r) Core i5 CPU M480

  GPU: Radeon HD 6470 M with Intel HD 3400 grapchics

  - And thank you

  Kind regards
  Pedro Marthon

  Hello PedroMarthon.

  Are you currently overclocking the graphics card?

  In order to solve this problem, I think you should uninstall third-party drivers and use the official drivers for Windows 7 and the workaround posted by my peers.  The reason I suggest, is that the use of third-party drivers could cause strange problems and it will be easier to solve the problem.

  What I would say is remove the third-party drivers and then using the method posted in my response above.  Once the process is complete, I would try and then update the BIOS again.  If successful, you can remove Windows 7 drivers and again use your third-party drivers.  However, I'm not against the use of third-party drivers.

  I appreciated the way in which you have been given to work with me, so I went to come your messages of congratulations.  If you think that I was helpful please click the White Star under my name to give my messages of congratulations.  I would really appreciate it!

  I will keep an eye out for your next answer.  I wish you a nice day!

• Reference Dell R710 - Perc 6 / disc matrix (support 4 TB?), I supported

  Hi all

  Since then, we want to upgrade the hard drive 2 TB (3.5 inches) for a large as 3/4 to.
  Is there information on the matrix of disc official supported of PERC 6 / i?

  We use Seagate 2 TB 72kRPM (bought from Dell) on our R710 servers. If the PERC 6 / I can't stand 3 to/4 TB disk. Is it possible to order the H700 support 4 TB drive adapter?

  We have installed the latest firmware /bios,
  -Perc 6/i: 6.3.3 - 0002, A-00
  -System BIOS: 6.4.0

  Thank you and best regards,
  Caleb Wong

  PERC 6 does not support disks larger than 2 TB. The H700 is supported in the R710 and supports disks larger than 2 TB. I would not, however, use desktop or NAS drives.

• Using disks SAS for R710 PERC 6 / i controller

  I have a server R710 with PERC 6 / i controller, which originally had two 136 GB SATA disks and I want to replace it with two drives of 500 GB SAS (Dell Constellation SED). I put the SAS disks in slots 0 and 1, turn on the server and the BIOS OF THE controller reports both as having failed. the top lit flashes yellow two disks. The firmware of the controller is v6.3.1 - 0003, A14, such as reported by the BIOS, set up the screen. While these drives are not new, I wonder if they didn't in fact or there is something else I have to do on the server to allow these disks to use. Can anyone give me any suggestions?

  Thank you, Daniel

  daniel_wu

  I even try to replace old disks together rather than "grow" one at a time. I don't think I can anyway because they are of different types of readers - SATA vs SAS.

  No, you can't... that's why I asked.

  daniel_wu

  How can I disable encryption on the drive? I want to just use it as a "regular" readers I don't think I've seen all the options on the PD MGMT screen. The drive came as failed and most of the options are grayed out.

  You can not turn it off.  PERC 6 can't stand NOT of SED - he has no knowledge of this feature, so it is impossible to turn off or manage otherwise.  There is no real 'options' on the PD MGMT screen... If they are displayed as foreign, then you must first clear the foreign configuration on the screen, VD MGMT (control of brightness, F2, foreign, Clear).

  If you do not have these options - no way to clear the foreign configuration or configure the drives in a RAID array, you probably cannot use these only disks on PERC 6 in all.  The H700 is supported on your server and supports the SED discs, although I don't know what are the requirements exist for them.
