My Satellite A100 GPU fan works 100% all the time

First: I have the Satellite A100-440 with GeForce Go 7300 and XP Professional (and Ubuntu).

There is something wrong with thermal control. The first PC Wizard has always shown that the temperature of my GPU is "a very large number" and the fan is runnign 100% all the time (the main problem). Then I installed ATItool hoping he would show the temperature correctly. Well, it worked in part. Now when I check the temperature with PC Wizard, it indicates the temperature of the GPU normally (like 30-40 degrees celsius), but it also shows the GPU Diode temperature it's "a very large number" (as 4.294967E + 09 C) and the fan will operate at 100%.

I tried to control fans with RivaTuner, but nothing happens.

So if anyone has an idea how I could continue to solve the problem, I would be very grateful. I don't know if the problem is with the hardware (I could take this service) or with the software...

Thank you!

Hello

Why are you talking about 'problem' and 'solve this problem?
I see no problem!
First of all I'm not all 3rd party applications that monitor temperatures. I'm not 100% sure if these applications provide a good values.

However, as far as I know the laptop was shipped with Vista and not XP and Linux. You do not use a factory settings. It seems that you have set up the laptop with new applications and you should know that all the software installed and running insists on the CPU and other parts.

BIOS fan table supports different temperature and cooling of the speed measurements. This means that if the temperature rises to a higher level, the cooling module starts and tries to decreases the internal temperature.

Usually the temperature depends on the use of the laptop. If several processes of the OS are running in the background, that the CPU performance are high, the temperature rises and the fans start to run. There is nothing unusual about it.

Furthermore, the dust and debris inside the laptop might have a bad influence on the laptop cooling. From time to time, it is advisable to clean the cooling modules.

Last but not least the laptop must be placed free on table to ensure the circulation of air correctly. Don't forget that there is enough free space around the laptop.

Finally, I must say that one of my friends has an A100 and the fans run correctly.
This means that the cooling modules works with maximum performance while playing games or using graphics software.
However fans do not work with maximum performance using only common programs like IE software or office.

Good bye

  • Satellite U500-PSU9BE - fans to run all the time

    I bought a U500 - PSU9BE 10 days ago, comes with Windows 7 Home Premium.

    10 days everything was fine.
    Without changing any settings, today the fan has full throttle, as usual he is sitting on my desk with plenty of ventilation around it...
    After awhile, I opened the tool PC to see health + 90% of the activity of the fan and only 27% of the CPU temperature.
    It off for 2 hours. Is returned and turned on. He took over fan full speed immediately at startup.
    It feels like a thermal conductor who does not switch the fan to the bottom switch.

    Looked at Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel settings - all together on the optimization of the battery.
    The Eco mode is activated.

    What the hell happens on this machine? Al support will be more than welcome!

    Hi mate

    Have you checked the parameters of module cooling in power management Windows 7-> Toshiba power saver.

    Here, you can change the method of CPU cooling for maximum performance CPU, or better battery life with reduced CPU performance. If the CPU fan noise seems too strong, a setting that maximizes the battery life will also cause the CPU fan turn on less frequently.

  • Tecra A11 speed on the fan at 100% all the time

    Hi, one of my colleagues has a new notebook Tecra A11. I've recently updated the bios to version 2.60 and since then the fan is constantly at full speed. Before the update it would be noticeable when the laptop has been widely used, but would slow down when idle. Anyone else seen/had this problem? I wouldn't mind flashing back to the old bios but can not see available on the web site of tosh.

    Thank you

    Hello

    In your case, I recommend setting the BIOS to the default value.
    You can do it in the BIOS. Insofar as I'm sure you could get press F9 default.
    But the option is mentioned in BIOS to verify this.

    In addition, I recommend changing the CPU and cooling module in Windows Power Options.

    This should help to reduce the speed of the cooling fan.

  • Button to navigate to another page does not not work properly all the time.

    Hello

    I'm just starting to explore the ADF, I use Jdeveloper 12.1.3.0.0 and integrated weblogic server that comes with the IDE.

    I just created a simple application with a welcome page called Main.jsf and then 2 task bounded, streams called SearchStudentsFlow and Studenloansflow, each workflow has a jsf page. The home page has a single button that sends me to the first task flow, SearchStudentsFlow and I can see is the page in that workflow, AwardsSearch.jsf. Also in the AwardsSearch.jsf page I have a button that takes back me to the home page.

    The first problem I have is that when I run the application starting at the home page button in the works of the great homepage the first time, the button send me to the AwardsSearch.jsf , but once I decide to go back to the homepage and then click on the button to go to the first task flow the button does nothing. This happens whenever I decide to return to the home page of any page in my project.

    Also, I copied the entire previous project into a new project and I decided to use the ADF security infrastructure in this new project to create a log in page create users and give them different roles and levels of access.

    I created some users who have access to all pages and all the streams, but when I run the application starts the login page and I login successfully and go to the home page, the button on the home page does not work.


    I don't know why the button sometimes works, but not of others and also I do not know why when I use the login page, the button doesn't work. I don't know if these 2 problems are related or not.

    No idea why the button does not work correctly all the time?

    Thanks in advance

    Play well!

    Now, we understand the problem and can help you solve it.

    The problem is that you dropped the home page in the flow of student loan and place you thinking that you must return to the point of departure, the unlimited workflow. Actually, you don't the sheet flow loan student but simply see the homepage as part of the loan flow. The navigation rules remain those defined in the flow of student loan. Now, when you click on a button to jump to the stream of research, the target is undefined zed you simply stay on the same page, the home page.

    To make your work use case, you set a return action in the flow of student loan that return to the caller, the flow of research which, in turn, will return to his name the workflow without terminals that hold the homepage. Remove the homepage of flow of charge to students. The case of navigation allows to navigate between the button and the new return action.

    In the adf of flow research a wild-card rule that accesses the return operation sends the return flow to the home page. You must remove the sailing time pointing to research prices for the return operation because it can use the same rule of navigation of wild-card then. Then, you add a Bach student load flow navigation rule to the scholarship search page. This navigation is used for the return actionto_searchStudents.

  • Tecra Z50 A-h-13 - fan works half of the time

    Hello

    I got a new Tecra Z50 A-h-13 (i5, 8 GB RAM).

    Although the processor is underemployed (approx. 20% of capacity), the fan works half of the time!

    When the fan is running the Toshiba PC Health Monitor shows approximately 44% CPU temp. and 36% system temp.

    When the fan works not the Toshiba PC Health Monitor shows similar values!

    What is it good for?

    In my opinion, the fan is not alone. I have not found a possibility to adjust the speed of the fan (PC Health Monitor always shows 45%) or the starting temperature. The current Version of BIOS is installed.

    Is it possible to get a SMART fan control?

    Best regards

    Zvonko

    Hello

    The manual fan control is very limited.
    What you can do is to change some parameters in the Windows power options.
    Go to the control panel? power options
    Select the power plan you use.
    Then choose Advanced settings.

    In the advanced power settings, you will find the option method Cooing and the performance of the processor.
    I recommend you degrade the performance of the max processor at 90-95% and to change the method of passive cooling (both for the battery and plugged)

  • Satellite P305D-S8828 - fan runs most of the time

    On my new Satellite P305D - S8828 17 "fan seems to work most of the time, fled to 01:45 for: dry then on new 50." I have the schema defined on "balanced" & the unit is based on a cooler aluminium frame (no fans on radiator).

    Basically, ventilation under the unit must be very very good compared to flat on a desk. Room temperature. is about 78 F. The unit is basically idling & the fan runs at low speed most of the time. Sometimes it ramps at high speed for about 30 seconds. I can go to Circuit City and check another, but anyone know if this is normal behavior?

    I tried a non-Toshiba notebook & I do not remember the fan being audible to all! This laptop was horrible buttons on the touchpad well, so I prefer this Toshiba.

    I think that the fan runs up constantly when a movie is playing. I heard a change in BIOS to set the fan turns too, but do not know what is available on this platform. Any help is appreciated, because I can still return unit for something else.

    BTW, Wireless G is on, but no traffic running on AC & battery not charging. The fan is sometimes we'RE for: 30 & off at 01:00.
    Thank you

    captna wrote: thanks again for the help, I thought it was probably the case but never bothered with graphics cards before today. Any thoughts on an upgrade for not much more money? It was a pretty good pc when I bought it, but it is old, and there should be some video cards better for the same price that would work. I'll add some memory and while I am because the grandchildren need to play their games too. Do you know where to find an upgrade that would be compatible? Yet once again, I appreciate the help.

    Hello captna, here is a link for the specifications of your system. It shows that the system was delivered with a 300 Watt power supply.

    There is not much better performing video cards that work with a 300 Watt power supply. Most require at least a 400 Watt power supply or greater power.

    You could improve the feed and the video card, then possibly 4 new memory modules, but the cost would start to add up. On a system to make a few years about it, I don't know if this would be the way to go, or consider getting a new system.

    You could simply acquire a new video of the same type card and get the system back, because there was, or even try and find a graphics card fan to replace the failed fan. It would be the least expensive option.

    Your system was shipped with the memory 3 X 1 GB modules. It only supports 4 X 1 memory modules, so upgrading the memory would not help all that much. You'd probably remove the existing memory and install 4 new memory modules in order to be compatible with your system memory. It is not recommended to mix memory strips.

    Just some thoughts.

  • Satellite L500-1XL - high CPU usage all the time

    Hi all

    I've owned the L500-1XL for over a year now and I recently encountered a new problem: for the last few weeks, the laptop everything can become very, very slowly. Everything I do, the laptop freezes and may stop responding for a few minutes at a time. Regardless of the application I see is to do so in the process manager, stop it, but then another application steals all CPU - this isn't a particular application...

    -I'm crazy about security and make quick analyses and complete analyses frequently, including spyware and rootkits scans startup
    -I update drivers all the time, but have already re-installed all the drivers that came with the laptop and no change.
    -J' recently added more RAM and a new hard drive internal, but this problem existed before the new facilities
    -J' tried SP1 installation integrated in a Windows 7 disc and installed, and I noticed the problem of CPU for the first time then. If after that when I put in new hard drive I used the Windows Installer disc which is come with the laptop instead and in no time the problem comes back.
    -J' have uninstall the applications that I don't use and there is not a lot of new applications on my laptop that I am not familiar
    -J' tried it a bit on the internet and it is a very common problem, but I still don't know what to do

    This happened to someone? Someone at - it ideas? I would be very grateful, it starts to drive crazy me! My laptop is not my laptop when it wastes my time...!

    Hmm hard to say what's wrong here
    In the Task Manager, you can check the process that locks the CPU and use the whole performance of the CPU.
    You can google for this .exe to know what software or application uses this process.

    Theoretically, it could also be a virus

    Hello

    Only way to really know if there is a problem is to check with a real computer (not the leeks and pics store
    at a Best Buy or other department stores) or Support of Dell. Also ask in the Dell forums where others have
    the same system for known issues.

    Make sure that the vents are clear, so there is plenty of air circulation. Try using a small fan blowing through the vents
    to see if the heat is excessive. Often, a cooling pad can help.
