• Satellite P30-141 - fan constantly running

  Laptop for a few years now and can't remember but don't fan run always.
  Its really irritating.

  The fan is not at full speed but runs of course.
  Power settings do not seem to help.

  Your thoughts.

  Well, what to say. The fan should run continuously to cool the internal devices like CPU and GPU.

  But a question; have you tried to change the settings in the Toshiba Power saver?
  I mean in particular the method of cooling, CPU control method and CPU processing speed settings.

  Please check everything first.

  If it doesn't help then I think that there is not much to do because the BIOS to control the rotation of the fan, and this cannot be changed.

  By the way; did you check if the fans are free and that the air circulates properly?
  Check it!

• ACPI fan constantly runs at full speed on Toshiba Satellite L505

  Hello world!
  I recently bought a new laptop (Toshiba L505)... everything works fine except the fan under Linux. It works constantly to max speed and I must say it's quite annoying. I know it is better to have a fan that runs continuously rather than one that is not light up at all, but I really want it to solve...
  See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi/+bug/321578 for more information on this bug...
  I think that it is related to ACPI but I tried everything almos (acpi_osi change, acpi = force and other hack kernel). But whatever the OSs I throw (except Windows 7), it is always at full speed (I tried the Chakra (Archlinux), Ubuntu, and PC - BSD). With Ubuntu, I tried the last kernel 2.6.32rc7...

  Thanks ;)

  Hi sunrider.

  to understand why your machine is constantly cooling at high speed, go deep into the linux stuff...

  * but you can try "acpi = off" * instead of 'force' to give the os the ability to manage the material at the level of the api...
  Maybe there is an updated driver/module implemented who knows your chipset...

  If you "force" the kernel to manage equipment of this 'acpi' way and no module is there to do the work... you see it is a bad thing...

  or you are a geek and program a module that manages your chipset to acpi... If yes pls share it with the community...
  of course I'm kidding, writing of modules is not for me...

• FANS CONSTANTLY RUNNING

  For reasons unknown to me, the fans on my early 2011 MacBook Pro operate at full capacity from the time when I start the computer until I shut it down and sometimes beyond the closure of 15 ". After taking it to the Apple Store, we found that it is not a hardware problem. I also discovered that it happens on my account and not on the other count that one in my computer. I did a SMC & PRAM reset without change. When I check the activity monitor, it shows what we call "launchd" using more than 100% of the CPU and the last time of the CPU was 1:06:37:46. The "UserEventAgent" uses more than 50% CPU with a time of 10:25 CPU. 35. when I forced him to leave the 'launchd', it restarts my computer and nothing changes. I also tried to force him to leave the "UserEventAgent", but it just restarts. And of course as a result fans walk constantly, my battery lasts about 45 minutes.

  What could be the cause of this? The specifications of my MacBook Pro are:

  OS X Version of El Capitan 10.11.2

  Processor - 2 GHz Intel Core i7

  Memory - 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3

  Boot disk - Macintosh HD

  Graphics - Intel HD 3000 512 MB graphics card

  Thanks in advance to anyone who can solve this dilemma for me.

  When you notice that the fan activity, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

• Satellite C660-1F1-Slow After recovering from DVD and fans constantly running

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C660-1F1 has an i3 processor and I recovered from the recovery disks. A few days later, everything is very slow and the Fans are always at full speed, even at idle and there is no dust when I opened it and I replaced the thermal paste.

  Hello

  Try to optimize the OS version. Check the startup options and disable all applications that you don't need.
  Make sure that all unnecessary applications do not start with the OS. Remove the system from all things, that you don't need.

• Satellite C660 - Constant high speed CPU fan and a high utilization of the processor

  I have the Toshiba Satellite C660-F235. A few days ago, my machine was suddenly ok, fan constantly runs fastly each time and cpu use at least 50%. If I want to run some programs that require high cpu consumption, that the system is turned off automatically.

  I installed the latest version of the BIOS and all drivers and installed the new windows 7... Please help me

  Hello

  I think some sort of background process CPU stress.
  You can check this in the task-> processes tab Manager
  Click the CPU column to get the ordered process and to show all processes that emphasize the CPU.

  Closing or disabling of these processes can reduce the performance of the processor.

• IdeaPad Flex 2 - 14 d: constantly running at high speed of the fan: 8.1 Windows

  Hello.

  I have a Flex 2 - 14 d running Windows 8.1 Ideapad and real pilots.

  The fan runs constantly at high speed.

  So I have no complaint about overheating, but instead, I have to complain about is cold knees.

  Y at - it a possibility to adjust the fan speed?

  Best regards

  Eleichstetten

  I have Flex 2-15 and suffered from the same problem. By trial and error, I found that (although not documented) a specific version of the TPFanControl (http://www.staff.uni-marburg.de/~schmitzr/tpfc.html) does not work with my laptop. Opt for the 0.62e version. It is a cool utility, has several conditions of default security in standard BIOS procedures if something is still wrong. Temperature to the fan speed mappings are user adjustible, so you must refine your laptop (default values are designed for Edge E520, so don't not necesserily ideal).

  A HUGE relief!

• Re: Fan is constantly running on Satellite A30

  Whenever I start my Satellite A30 the fan starts to operate in an audible manner. However, HD is about 32 to 35 ° C, according to speedfan. In addition, from time to time, the fan speeds up and gets really loud.

  In addition, sometimes the laptop just closed without any warning. I shall now put the end of the book a one bar so that air can still pass by the pc, and I feel it helps.

  I would like to stop the fan always running and to reduce its noise.

  My RAM expansion may be the reason?

  To make the A30 run better and be able to install WinXP SP3 I upgraded from 256 MB to 2.0 GB of RAM which is the maximum size of RAM according to the manual. I used the site Web of Kingston to select and buy the CPU, so I guess I bought good extensions.

  If the extension of RAM were the reason for the fan always market that would mean that if the A30 Gets the full load of RAM it's overheating. Right?

  Are there people here on the forum who had the same problem with a noisy laptop after upgrading the RAM?

  TIA
  FT

  Satellite A30 is old enough for laptop and, in my view, there may be a big problem cold air and cooling rack is full of dust. Laptop cannot be properly cooled. I opened several old notebooks and it was amazing to see how the dust was inside. I really wonder how the laptop worked

  Laptop last I opened was friends Satellite A100 (not so old as yours) and I've been irritated how fan worked on this laptop. He was so strong and ON / OFF sporadically. After cleaning it computer laptop was extremely calm and fan has worked almost constantly, but at the low level silent.

  The same was on my old satellite 1900. It was full of dust.

  Upgrade RAM or any other reason can be the reason for more power and performance. Performance notebook more runs faster and produce more heat. The critical threshold is reached laptop after suddenly OFF.

• Fans of Qosmio G55-Q804 constantly running

  computer laptop 3 years old has the om fans all the time, OS is very slow (WIN 7), everything is slow, it would imply a virus but nothing found, CPU running 100% on occasion but I can not find the problem... nor could our local ' puter service.

  So I'm on my own, any ideas?

  Hello

  Clean the cooling modules in the past?
  Otherwise, to do this
  Use a jet of compressed air to dust off the cooling vents.
  In most cases the clogged vents and fans cannot run correctly and this leads to a higher temperature. In this case, the fans would go often.

• New Fans of Yoga 2 pro 13.3 constantly running

  I just bought my Yoga 2 pro 13.3 this week. I noticed that the fans are always spinning. Although they are not that strong. Sometimes the bottom where are fans heat up. is this normal? should I be worried?

  I think it's quite normal for the fans to run all the time as you describe. In my Yoga 2 Pro fans behave like yours: all the time but very quiet unless I'm doing something CPU. The bottom of the laptop is hot near the vents most of the time, but gets a little hotter that the CPU work, once again, I think that it's normal.

  Intel and Lenovo made a nice improvement of temperature and noise of the fan during the passage of the original 13 Yoga the Yoga 2 Pro. I've owned both, and old 13 Yoga was stronger and ran more hot.

  Hello

  Try to re - install ZoneAlarm on laptop, BUT it tells me that I must upgrade to the Microsoft Windows Service Pack 1 (SP1) to do this... I am running Windows Vista and when I click on windows update it works for literally hours without anything happeneing.

  Zone Alarm has a key valid license - but for some strange reason, he will not have, so I had to uninstall and reinstall ZoneAlarm - he tells me that I need this update - who will not come?

  Note: Windows Firewall is turned on right now and when I look at 'exceptions' does not offer updates of windows as part of the selection list.

  Please, any advice on this will be greatly appreciated.

• Satellite Pro L series: fan always running even at IDLE when LAN is on

  the fan always running even at IDLE when lan is on
  Thanks for any help, that can stop the fan...

  Just see your questions:
  What model of laptop do you have exactly?
  What system do you use?
  What exactly do you mean by power of LAN?

  I can tell you that the cooling modules are controlled by fan table stored in the BIOS.
  Usually, the fan starts to spin if the CPU would be responsible for some unique applications/processes. It would also be possible that your fan is running continuously with low performance to maintain the low temperature. This isn't a real problem for laptop.
