Cooling fan runs very often on my Sat M40

Hello
I bought my computer 2 weeks ago. I have problem with cooling fan, it runs about 2 minutes and stop 40 seconds :/ (He lights 51 degrees Celsius and off at 46 degrees celsius). No programs running in the background and the load of the processor in windows xp is 0-2%.
It is normal for this model or is something wrong and I should send to authorized service?

Hi Piotr,

It seems quite normal to me. There are various settings that you can make in the power management to change this behavior, but it is usually at the expense of the performance of the system. As long as there is a sufficient amount of air through your laptop cooling there is nothing to fear for you.

  • Qosmio F30-112: cooling fan runs very fast

    Hello

    I want someone ask them, my computer laptop qosmio F30 - 112 recently whenever I start my computer, I heard that the cooling fan runs very fast (I mean) it wasn't stop differently than before his execution smooth only I heard when I play games but not continuous, then after that my computer now running slow.

    Can someone help me what im going to do?

    Thanks: rtmasagca

    Hello

    F30 is a little older series laptop I think about 3 years or more... you cleaned the cooling modules in the meantime?
    I think there is a lot of dust and debris inside the laptop and I think that keeps air from traffic and therefore fans run faster.
    Try the compressed air jet that should help to remove dust and debris.

    Good luck

  • Tecra A3-145: cooling fan works very often

    Hello.
    I have a Tecra A3-145 I just bought. During regular browsing that fan comes on about every 15 seconds and remains on for about 30 seconds. Is this normal, especially for just browsing?

    Thanks for your help :)

    Hi Dan,.

    The ventilation system on my functions very similar to the one on your Tecra SA30. Fans usually starts in a second or two of the system being initialized and will be off until I have started using the system. Navigation Internet will usually cause fans run slowly at first, but any increase in activity such as downloading, or any use of the activex will cause fans to step up in speed.

    Any use of busy graphics will cause fans to operate intensively, that will be burning CD/DVDs or video rendering.

    It doesn't seem to me as if your Tecra is bad conduct. As stated in the previous post, make sure that the appliance is well ventilated.

    Kind regards

  • The fan runs very often one a Tecra A6

    Hello
    I have a Tecra A6, about a month. I updated the BIOS yesterday to 2.60 and after that the fan works with intervals of 15 seconds. I don't know if it s the update of the BIOS that causes, but it was not there before... Anyone with the same problem? Can I go back to the old BIOS? If 'yes', how should I do?

    / Axel

    Hello

    May I ask why you updated the BIOS?
    Have you had problems or what?

    I think it s not necessary to update the BIOS if the laptop works properly.
    But of course, it of possible to downgrade the BIOS if you find the previous version of the Bios. But as far as I know on the Toshiba page you will find only the latest version of the BIOS. :(

    But have you tried changing the settings in the Toshiba power saver?
    What about the BIOS settings? Are there options CPU or fan?

    Hello Phil

    I put t really believe that there are many options to do better. Of course if you use a USB device, the CPU usage goes over the limit of use and produce more heat.

    Try to check all the processes running and finish a useless manually.

I tried to change "Toshiba Power Saver Settings V8.9.4.64" "Battery optimized" in 'advanced power settings', but that didn't help. I updated my BIOS to version 1.80, but he did ' help, too. When will be the new BIOS for this model?

    Hello

    Please don t understand me wrong but acitivy fan will be controlled automatically and is based on the CPU temperature. Still, the fan will start if the CPU is running on a high temperature to protect the equipment. So it of normal.

    What you can do after a few months is the cleaning of cooling as described here:

  • Cooling fan runs constantly on Tecra A3

    I have a Tecra A3 one my fans constantly, past even when idleing and he did it since I got it (about 18 months ago). It works also at a steady pace, and it's like hear Arnold talk - very annoying. Sometimes a (?) of stopp making fans operate for a few seconds, then it starts again, back at the same speed. I've had the computer for repairs and they changed the fan and cleaned the cooling circuit, but this has not done things better, well, well, I got rid of the sound ratteling, but that's it!

    I've tried everything I can think of, I am currently under the computer set on the lowest setting for the speed of the processor and optimized battery cooling using the Power Saver utility, but apparently not helped at all. I also tried to set the low processor speed in BIOS setup, it makes a difference and the fan remained periods of 30 seconds (!), bur the performance of the performance of the computers was horrible with these settings, so I had to go back to the speed of the dynamics processor.

    In what concerns the the temeratures get to temperature about 36 to 37 degrees celsius (95-97 degrees Fahrenheit) for the temperature of HD (using speedfan). If theres no overheating problem (?). This leads me to believe that this could be due to a bug in the software. I currently use a Norwegian install of Windows XP with Service Pack 2, it is a customized installation provided by my University (my computer is a student PC bought through University).

    So, can someone help my makeup the tranquility of my computer like normal computers, sane?

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Hello Stig

    I use laptop Tecra (M1) for years and I can tell you that this model is really one of the quieter laptops, I know but it is certainly not quite quiet and cooling fan runs almost constantly, but slower level. I know that this is irrelevant to your problem, but I'm just saying that most quiet laptop product noises.

    Read your ad I just say you are probably right when you say that it cannot be because of material because the temperature of the laptop is OK and there is no sign of overheating. The fact is that all new laptops are stronger than some older models and Tecra A3 is one of them and unfortunately there is not much to do. As I know nobody has mentioned on any software bug so far. Many bugs are corrected by the BIOS, updates and all I can recommend is to check if the new version of the BIOS is available and see if it helps. Before you start with the update of the BIOS read carefully Instructions how to proceed.

    Good luck!

    Thank you

    I don't know how old is your laptop and if dust may be reason for constantly running cooling fan but try it please check first advanced power options. You will find the option for cooling method. Please, set it to optimized battery. This should reduce the activity of fan cooling.

    I also hope you use laptop on the desk and fan/cooling grill is free.

    Hello Dougie

    In my opinion you should not do much and check anything because your laptop is new and under warranty. If something is suspicious to you, please contact your dealer local or much better is to contact directly the authorized services.

    Explain the situation and let it check your laptop.

  • Satellite R830-182 - cooling fan runs constantly

    Hello

    I just bought the R830-182. The fan runs at 100% of the time, from that moment I start. Is it true, that I expect the fan on a laptop to kick when the CPU reaches a certain temperature? It's annoying because it's quite noisy. Also try running the laptop at the lowest possible power - no software no open, WIFI turned off, the management of the standby power battery, the screen brightness turned down etc nothing works.

    Someone out there with the same model knows if it is a problem or simply how this laptop it is supposed to work?

    Try it please change settings option method of cooling. You can find it in power advanced options for the management of the power supply you use.
    Assign the Please optimized battery option. It should reduce the activity of fan cooling.

  • On my Satellite P100-347 cooling fan runs all the time

    Hello

    I think I might have a problem with the fan on my Satellite P100-347. He seems to be constantly works constantly and is much stronger than when I bought the computer. Initially he just spent and if so, I think that this could now be wrong.
    Help, please.

    Hi Beata

    I agree with the suggestions of Sanremo; He s I don't known how old your laptop has but from time to time it of necessary to clean the cooling fans. Dust and debris inside the laptop could prevent the cooling modules work properly!
    The fresh air flow is also very important. Don't forget that there is enough free space around the laptop. Do not use the laptop on the lap or in the bed. In this case the laptop cannot be cooled in the right way and the high temperature can damage parts such as GPU to the Board of Directors.

    But if you think that there is a serious hardware problem you must contact the service provider authorized in your country.

    Good luck and greetings to Poland ;)

  • Cooling fan runs constantly on my Portege S

    I just bought a laptop Portege S and fun kept to never stop and it bothers me. I tried to reduce the power through the Manager of power, but to no avail.

    All solutions? Thank you!

    [Edited by: admin]

    Hello

    The fan runs constantly if you get into the BIOS?
    If Yes, then maybe it can be defective.
    In such cases, you should ask the guy to service for assistance.

  • Satellite L650-1GF - cooling fan runs every 3 minutes

    Last week, I bought a Satellite L650-1GF. Everything is fine except the noise from the cooling fan. Especially because it works almost every minute to cool the carrots. There is an annoying sound hum which takes about 10 seconds and is repeated every 3 minutes approximately.

    I checked with "Speedfan". The temperature of the hearts is fluctuating between 32 and 37 C. And at about 37 ° C, the fan speed to cool the computer.

    Two questions:
    1 is this normal that the cooling fan starts cooling to 37 ° c.
    2. is the annoying noise of the fan normal for this model of Toshiba?

    And what is acceptable, can I find examples to compare with what I feel here somewhere? I saw a lot of cell phones so far, but none of the cooling fans made a buzzing sound like this.

    Kind regards
