Noisy fan with 10 Windows using Portege Z30 - B

I have my Toshiba Portege Z-30 b for the last 7 months. He received with Windows 8 pro. installed, all played very well. I have upgraded to Windows 10 about 5 months ago, after the upgrade, the fan ran constantly at a high unacceptable noise. Toshiba service replaced the fan - no result. I have been informed by the service to install the utility 'eco' - done. No results. I was informed by the service don't upgrade to the latest version of the Bios - done, no results. The noise is there in case of station dock, here in the position "charge" and there when it is on battery. I seriously consider to sell and move to the Lenovo or Dell. Anyone has any advice?

  • Satellite A200 - noisy fan and crashing Windows

    Hello

    I have Toshiba A200-28 s, bought in the summer 2008 the Russia.
    Before, I had a noisy fan, but as I read on the internet, it is common in Toshiba laptops.
    But anyway, I tried to Flash the BIOS (update), also for performance and other reasons. 1 week ago
    I downloaded the file to update the bios of Toshiba web site drivers. Update went well. Although I realized this fan noise has not changed. So far the fan was ok and I didn't experience any overheating.
    Also, I tried to clean the ventilation with vacuum.

    Today, when I switched on my laptop, windows started normally and after a while when I started my browser and check e-mails, fan started making really loud and strange noise, like a small hairdryer. And then windows froze. I turned it off directly (pressing and holding the power button / stop). I started again, this time I opened the program to the speed of the fan to check the temperature.

    After a while, windows froze and fan started making the same sound. Last I read was 49 C. And before that all happened, I checked the core temperature from time to time, and they were 60 C maximum, average 50-52 c.

    Then I started Windows in safe mode. After about 15 minutes, it's the same fan.

    Now, I started windows again in safe mode. And the fan noise seems normal. Temperature is 61. I use only the browser. I hope I'll be able to post this thread.

    I put t think it's because of the dust. Usually, I check how hot my laptop is, and is usually warm, not hot.

    I have the warranty, but I don t want to consider serving because I need it for my thesis. I think that in the service it will take at least 2-3 weeks for them to fix it.

    Please help me. Thank you for your time.

    Hello!

    First of all, what OS do you have?

    In my opinion, the temperatures are normally and don t forget that the fan must sometimes run to cool the CPU. Otherwise, it can be damaged.

    If you have Windows XP, you must install the Toshiba Power Saver. With this tool, you can change the speed of the CPU and cooling method

    In the worst case you have to send it for repair to an authorized service provider, but don t be worry. I have good experience with this because the technicians are very useful and they will be committed to repair your laptop as soon as possible.
    My experience is that it takes only 1.5-2 weeks.

    Good bye

  • Unable to connect 2 external monitors via the Port Replicator using Portege Z30 - 16U

    Hi all

    I need hell, I just moved from another laptop for Portege Z30 - 16U, I spent hours trying to connect my 2 external monitors to my Replicator Port Hi-Speed III 120W, but my laptop will see a monitor.

    I used 2 external monitors with my laptop for years because I do a lot or reading and I don't want to use the one and the laptop screen.

    I tried the mixture of a VGA and a HDMI and VGA cables, but nothing works.

    Can anyone tell me how I can connect and discover 2 external monitors with this laptop and port replicator, I can't believe that this is not possible, it makes no sense that Toshiba would then technilogically behind other laptop manufacturers.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I'm not familiar with the Z30 Portreplicator, but the general behavior of the replicators of the double-displayconnector, is that 1 can be used.
    Not 2 simultaneously.

    I could be wrong, and you should easily be able to check it out - use only 1 at a time.
    First, then the other.
    If the two works when used alone, then my suspicion is right.

    I hope this helps!

  • Satellite U400-15B - noisy fan after Toshiba WIndows 7 upgrade

    Hello world

    Question 1:
    Last week, I got my Windows 7 Upgrade DVD from Toshiba. I'm leaving has upgrade and after 5 hours, the upgrade was complete. I have encountered a problem that the automated driver installed on the endgame wrong on the update of the BIOS because it is trying to write the backup file of the BIOS on the DVD. After a lot of pressure on the keys, I managed to get the installation to carry and then did the BIOS manually updated later. This succeeded and it updated to V4.80.

    Since the update of the BIOS, the fan noise is much stronger. I noticed it's from the fan that is to the right of the envelope, I guess it is the CPU fan. The fan that blows air on the left side of aeration wors as usual. Any suggestions? Should I get the BIOS, if so, how can I restore from the file BIOS.bak WinPHlash is?

    Question 2:
    The Upgrade of Windows 7 Toshiba DVD, I am able to do a new install of Windows 7, IE not need to upgrade to Vista?

    Question 3:
    On the upgrade DVD Toshiab is automatically installs the drivers required after the upgrade to WIndows 7. He had 22 things to do on my own. Does anyone know how to get the list of the required drivers for this laptop that the upgrade DVD refers to?

    Thank you very much for your time in reading this.

    Have you tried to change method parameters in Toshiba's energy-saving cooling?
    Change it to optimized battery.
    It has reduced the activity of fan on my A300.

    You can find it in the advanced power settings.

  • Noisy fan Portégé Z30-B-117

    Hello

    I have a problem with my new laptop Portege Z30-B-117,
    He really noisy fan, I was forced to use battery saving mode, without which I can't work on this machine.

    The fan speed is absurdly designed.
    There are a lot more speed, even when it does not heat.

    Please make a new bios with the smart fan speed, then it will be the best phone on the market!

    Thanks in advance.

    Sometimes the fan activity would increase where the processor is loaded by some background process.
    I've had the laptop from another manufacturer and the fan speed was high due process that runs in the background. From time to time the process has locked the CPU (up to 80%-90% of CPU usage) and during this time, the speed of the fan was very high.

    I spend a lot of time to learn about this process, and finally, I discovered that my antivirus software (it was Norton) the CPU load. I switched to Avira and Avast and this question doesn't seem anymore.

    However, I guess that the CPU could be occupied as a result of any background process

    By the way: you're right: BIOS contains fan table and this table fan gives indications how to control cooling modules. But the fan activity depends not only on the BIOS as I said above: background as well as the CPU processes affect the speed of the fan.

  • Portege Z30-A-12N with Port Replicator Port Hi-Speed USB III problems

    Hi all

    I have a big problem with my new Portege Z30-A-12N and Hi-Speed Port Replicator III.

    I connected the power, DVI, LAN, mouse and keyboard to the Port Replicator.
    Power, DVI and LAN are okay, but none will be found if I connect something to the USB Ports 2.0 or 3.0.
    No mouse, no keyboard, and no USB key.

    When I start my Portege I must enter a password after you press the power button.
    These password, I could enter with the external keyboard, but in windows, no keyboard has been found.

    If I connect the keyboard and mouse to the USB Ports of the Portege instead of Port Replicator, the two has been found.

    I ran Windows 7 Enterprise on the Portege.
    BIOS version is 3.30

    Do you have a solution for me?

    Hello

    The HI-SPEED PORT REPLICATOR III PA5116E-1PRP supports 2 x USB 2.0 and 4 x USB 3.0 ports.
    You n t special need Win 7 drivers in order to be able to use the USB ports or other interfaces such as VGA, DVI, audio, etc.

    Sound problems, make sure that the audio device has been selected in the right panel-> sound-> playback tab

    By the way: Win 7 needs USB driver 3.0 which is preinstalled when the laptop was equipped with USB 3.0 ports. My knowledge if your mobile phone does not support USB 3.0, you will be able to use the port replicator USB 3.0 ports.

    Finally and above all devices must be connected before you start the computer. The decision supported and compatible specifications: Portégé R30 - A, Tecra Z40 - A, Tecra Z50 - A, Portégé Z30-A/Z30t-A, Tecra A50 - has

  • Portege Z30 - A - 18 M - noise fan

    Hello

    yesterday, I bought new Portege Z30 - A - 18 M and I'm a little disappointed with the noise of the fan.
    The fan is inactive only when I do not have anything with Notepad or when I read something to pdf or microsoft office. As soon as I run Google Chrome or Mozilla, the fan starts to cool in 48% of its operating speed (according to Toshiba pc health monitor) and does not stop until I have shut down the browser and the cpu is cooled to 36% of its maximum temperature.
    My question is, if it is normal for laptop as it begins to cool at all times when the only thing I do is internet browsing, and if there is no solution to this problem.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I don't have this model of laptop, but I can imagine that the cooling fan is active when certain applications are active.
    I do not know what eating plan you use, but, as you know, you can change the power management according to your activity. For each day's activities, you can use your laptop with the standby power management. It slows down the CPU but also cooling fan activity.
    Open power options advanced for each diet plan and check the parameters for the method of cooling. Put the battery optimized, and I hope that this will reduce the cooling fan activity.

    I use the same settings on my laptop satellite and cooling fan is very quiet.

  • Portege Z30-A-108 - use of the headphone/microphone jack

    My Portege Z30-A-108 (running Windows 7) has a unique plug taken jack for headphones/microphone. I want to connect my combination of headset to use Skype, but like everything I've seen has separated mini jacks for headphones and microphone. If I plug the headphones there is no microphone, while if I plug the microphone as PC speakers are dumb there is no sound.

    I discovered that if I plug or in, but go to the Panel of control-> Sound-> recording, Microphone click on properties-> listen-> listen to this device, and then the computer's microphone seems to be activated and his captured it out with the sounds of the PC speakers.

    What is the best way to do things?

    Your model of laptop has only one port, designed for the use of the Mono headset.
    If you want to use usual helmet with two plugs I recommend you to use USB stereo Audio adapter.

    Google a bit autour and you will find a large number of them. It's cheap, so I think it's the best solution for you.

  • Portege Z30-C-12Z cam does not work with Win 10

    Hello!
    I have a problem with my Portege Z30-C-12Z. Camera in win10 does not work.
    Error code: 0xA00F4273. Have tried all the following steps: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/w...0-71c220c123a9 and like many more check the BIOS etc.

    According to me, I tried and everything, checked it please help!

    Try this:
    Type of storage in the search window and go to the storage system settings page. Make sure that the economy sites point to existing folders.
    I moved the files on a SD card and the camera could not find the folder of photos. Also, I've seen the suggestion to check that the folder of photos contains the security settings to allow access.

    If still no good, remove the driver of the webcam from the Control Panel, then let Windows Update to install a driver for the webcam update.

    Reinstall the camera application can also help.

  • Portege Z30 16 GB with high speed Port Replicator III and two monitors - resolution

    I have a Portege Z30 with 16 GB of Ram, connected to a Toshiba high speed Port Replicator III which is connected to two monitors running in mode extended.

    The monitor attached to the first section of the video is 1920 x 1200 running.
    However the second monitor is only show support for a maximum of 1280 x 1084.

    The monitors are identical, and both are connected by DisplayPort cables.

    I tried to lower the resolution and save the settings on the first monitor to see if it offered options on the second monitor, but the options remained the same.

    At this point, I have narrowed down to 1280 x 1024 so that it conforms to all the monitors but would like to a plus-res solution.

    Does anyone know if there is a fix/work-around for this?
    If this is a hardware limitation, has anyone tried a USB 3 to DisplayPort adapter in a similar configuration?

    Thank you!

    At the same time using two displayports?
    I wonder how it is possible, because of my knowledge it is not possible... as far as I know the Port Replicator III supports two DisplayPorts but you could choose and use one of them...

    In any case, you can use both with a lower resolution, I guess that this problem can be caused due to incompatible display drivers.
    I suggest you to uninstall reinstall or update the display drivers and check if it helps

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Portege Z30 - A
    Maybe someone was able to perform the bios upgrade in windows 7 64 bit?

    @tomek_1

    May I ask if you get an error message trying to update the BIOS?
    The downloaded BIOS package contains the exe to 3, 80 - WIN_ECB1.40.
    It is also a zipped folder. You can unzip the file using WinRAR or WinZip software.

    After that, you will get 16 files. I found the AutoExec file that seems to be the file that starts the BIOS update procedure.
