My Satellite keeps overheating and turning off

My laptop satellite keeps overheating and stopping when doing hard CPU work. The thing is if I open power management and keep the reset of the method of cooling performance max speed up the fan and it cools.

It does not seem to adjust the speed of the fan if left only you I have to keep changing it and in a minute or two, it slows down again and then have to change once again at the speed of the fan to the top.

No idea why this is happening and how to fix it? Grateful for any help. Thank you arran

    Hi kerplunk36,

    I put t know how you checked temperature internal 40-50 ° C, but if this would be the case, everything is ok. That s pretty good temperature and normally nothing should be overheating or turn off.

    Right now I can recommend Notepad using compressed air cleaning spray. This could blow in the form of dust fans cooling and, therefore, it of not necessary to disassemble the laptop. As you can see is a very easy and fast way to clean.

  • Satellite A30 heats and turns off automatically

    Hello
    I love my computer laptop satellite A30 with part number as PSA30E. Recently, it has developed a problem. the laptop GET closes after a bit of time if connect us the power supply external source.but the work of the laptop very well if the battery is fully charged. It is not warmed up quickly because it works with the external power supply. However I noticed that the machine gets very hot after a short time, then the pc stops automatically. is that someone can help me please...

    Hi stephanie,.

    This soundslike a case of overheating caused by the heat sink of the CPU obstruction with dust and lint sucked up by the cooling fans. You will find this described in the following link:
    http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/ToshibaA35/satellite-A35-fixing-overheating.htm

    You will find that it is easier to use a vacuum cleaner pipe placed on the grids of air intake based on your laptop computer, since it is very effective and doesn't involve any dismantling of you A30.

  • Satellite A60-181 heat up and turns off.

    Hope someone out there can help you.
    I was not able to use my A60-181 for awhile without being constantly plugged to electricity.
    And it seems to warm up and turns off.

    I bought a new battery, but I still get the same problem... and it is only 2 years old!
    Someone has an idea of what I need to do?

    In my view, this case is clear. It s a simple overheating. Usually the laptop stops automatically to prevent laptop damage material. Usually, this occurs if the laptop fans twist with speed and maximum performance.

    The reason for this behavior could be a dust and debris inside the laptop. Especially after 2 years of work and aspiration, the dust has a bad influence on the rotation of the fan.

    The module of cooling for computer laptop cleaning could help!
    But if you have no experience of it please contact the technician. It is recommended to clean the fans professionally.

  • Satellite P300 - 20 H refresh the screen every 10 minutes and turn off during 3 sec

    Hey,.

    Basically, I bought my P300 Sat about a month previously and each time it runs, battery, the same error will occur...
    It will update the screen every 10 minutes or more and turn off for 2-3 seconds.

    This isn't a big problem, but it is annoying that I can not sort.
    I tried to run a check of problem to find a solution, but he says that he can not find a.

    Help, please
    Thank you.

    Hello!

    Can you please explain what you mean with refresh? And what exactly is happening?

    It is not easy to say what the reason is for this, but have tested an external monitor on the laptop? And you can determine if it s a problem with the internal display or not.

    In addition, you must make sure that you have installed the latest display driver and BIOS. The two you can find on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    If you installed a display driver Toshiba not you should remove it. These display drivers can often cause problems and don t have protection against overheating.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A135-S4666 - cooling fan turns on and turns off every 20 seconds

    Hello

    I'm from the Argentina... I just bought a new Satellite A135-S4666 and I noticed that the cooling fan turns on and turns off every 20 seconds.
    It is a little annoying and it disctracts me of what I'm doing... is there a solution?

    Thank you very much.

    Hi Martin,

    This behavior is perfectly normal and nothing to worry about. If you find the noise irritating cooling fans you are likely to change their behavior by using the utility of Toshiba power where you should be able to set the cooling mode to run more quietly. I think trhe default is to allow the CPU to run at full speed, which will, of course, the fans turn every few seconds, but by reducing the speed of the CPU, the heat produced will be lower and therefore the fans will run less often.

    Kind regards

  • My Satellite Pro M70 itself turns off in the middle of the secuence of startup

    My Satellite Pro M70 itself turns off in the middle of the secuence of startup

    After turning on if it passes the test post and enters the menu grub (Linux + Windows) or BIOS
    without problems, but most of the time after the start of the BONE found in the start - up, suddenly it powers off the power.

    The problem becomes bigger and bigger as punishment I can boot any operating system

    As seen on messages more soon as I cleaned the vents of CPU with a spray suddenly sure I wasn't a problem of overheatting.

    Someone has an idea of what can happen?

    Thank you

    Hmm, the laptop passes the MESSAGE correctly and it stops during the initialization of the operating system. Is this good?

    Well, in this case I would exclude the RAM to malfunction.

    I put t also think that it's an overheating problem because the laptop should work a little longer until it would be closed due to high temperature.

    What about the HARD drive malfunction? Are you sure that the HARD drive is ok?

    In my opinion, you should check the HDD and maybe try another.

  • Satellite A200-1FL randomly turns off

    Hello

    I have the problem that after I moved from the Spain to the Thailand now my Toshiba Satellite A200-1FL randomly turns off.
    This only seems to happen when it is connected with AC - with battery I have it is not happened again although I can't rule out it.

    After some time of work (sometimes only 10 minutes, sometimes up to 2 hours) the laptop just shuts off-as if I would unplug the unit without the battery inserted. It is certainly not an overheating problem because the CPU is at 55º c most of the time (a year before the cpu fan was dirty and he has sometimes increased to 90º - but which caused no stops).

    I don't know about electricity here in Thailand - but it seems 220V and they do not use the Earth (at least at the point where I am).
    I use the original Toshiba AC adapter.

    What could be the problem here - is there any solution or the solution to this problem?

    Thanks for any help,
    vitaminx

    Hey,.

    As stone I n not know electricity of the Spain and Thailand, but if you have only this problem with the AC adapter / CC, there are a few differences between the Spain and the Thailand.

    In your case, I will ask the local authorized maintainer in Thailand. For example just give them a call and ask a technician for help. I'm pretty sure, they can give you an answer if you need a new power supply or another outlet.

    Good luck! :)

  • Satellite A60 - overheating and decommissioning

    Hello

    As "[email protected]", I have similar problems with my Satellite A60.

    After about 10 minutes of normal use on a hard, flat surface, the laptop starts to become very hot and turns off (obviously overheating). He started only when working with heavy editing workload, but is now it does all the time.

    Is this a common fault with the A60? I've had mine for a little more than 12 months and had no probems, and now all of a sudden I can barely use the thing! (of course, it's just out of warranty)

    Any suggestions would be very appreciated,

    Thank you very much

    Mike

    Hi Mike,.

    That strangely resembles the typical issue of overheating that can infest the laptop users. Laptops use a metal matrix (similar to a car radiator) cooling to dissipate heat from the CPU when using, and if the airway through the matrix of the clogging of dust and debris, then a thermal trigger will be used to turn off the power to the laptop.

    Air suction fans act like small vacuum cleaners and pull ambient air dust in the matrix where it gradually accumulates and blocks the air flow.

    Try to use a hose of vacuum cleaner against the aspiration air grills to pick the accumulated debris. I do this with my laptop on a monthly basis.

    Kind regards

  • Equium A60: After BIOS update device will beep several times and turns off

    Hello

    I downloaded the windows BIOS update for my Equium A60 (dated 11/15/05) and ran the executable by following the instructions, after ensuring that the current AC has been connected, etc.. The update has got a little more to halfway when the computer turns off suddenly.

    Now when I try to turn back on it just a few beeps and turns off again. It seems to me that the BIOS is screwed. Is there anything I can do to get my machine to run?

    Thank you

    Hi Phil,

    Unfortunately, it seems that if the BIOS of your laptop is corrupted. Unfortunately, he didn't there has no easy way for you to correct yourself and you will need to take the phone to your nearest Toshiba Service agent who has the necessary specialized equipment to reflash your CMOS with a new BIOS chip.
