• Satellite L750 - overheating problem

  Hello world

  I am facing a big problem for several weeks now. Indeed, my computer is overheating.
  I have cleaned because I first thought that it was because the fan was full of dust, however, nothing has changed.
  The fan is always a lot of noise and hot air of spit.

  I use speedfan to check the temperature of the processor and do nothing (just google chrome), my processors easily reach * 65 to 70 ° c *!
  [I already reached 85 ° c, with internet and MS Word]

  I don't think that the problem is a software that I re-installed W8 2 days.
  Now I don't know what to do... any ideas?
  Thank you very much for your help! :)

  Laptop: Toshiba Satellite L750
  System: Windows 8 Pro 64 bit
  Processor: i7-2670QM

  > Actually, my computer is overheating.
  How to understand this? Your laptop off or just to reach a higher CPU temperature?

  I mean until your computer laptop doesn t go off, there is no great reason to panic.
  How to use your laptop? Do you use it on the desk or perhaps placed on the bed or on your lap?

• Re: Satellite A60 - overheating problem

  Hello

  I have some difficulties to adjust temperature and fan on my Satellite A60.
  The operating system is Debian and the fan operates at temperatures of 60-65 degrees Celsius (without any process started after the login).
  I had installed utilities like toshutils, fancontrol, lm-sensors... but basically I have not found a solution for this:

  toshiba_acpi #modprobe
  Error: No such device

  Toshiba #modprobe
  Error: No such device

  Now, I ask you advice, please.
  If there are no alternative solutions, recompiling the kernel 2.6.24 (or other) is a solution to this problem? If the answer is 'Yes', how to prepare the package source?

  Now the system works, but not very well at that latitude this question isn't a good prelude to my summer job.

  Best regards

  HM,

  already checked the debian/gentoo/ubuntu forums? Or maybe freshmeat.net where toshutils all appear in their projects?

  Unfortunately I can't tell you why the modprobe won´t work but don't you compiled the kernel option ACPI from toshiba? It must be something that controls the trough of explicitly from functions ACPI kernel using the userlevel tools.

  By the way: have you read newspapers after trying the modprobe of the listed modules you´ve? Please make the modprobe more 'verbose', there may be something usable...

• Satellite A30 overheating problem

  I've had my A30 for about 9 months now, he is just starting to give me problems. At least I have put the computer on top of some books (which is very heavy) my A30 overheats and shuts down. It only started happening. Is it just because of the dust build up or do I have a technical problem. If this is the first, where should I go to get my computer cleaned? Any help will be received with recognition of Ed

  Hello

  Dust clean usually of the heatsink from the CPU using a domestic vacuum hose in the fan air intake grilles.

  Alternatively it is possible to remove the heat sink by removing the small plastic cover (adjacent to the air intake grilles) and then by unscrewing the screws in the sink four hest. The heatsink can then be lifted off and removed debris. Ensure that the heat dispering paste is always in place reassembly of the heat sink.

  Please do not forget to p [ower off Notepad first.

• Satellite P200: Overheating problems

  Yesterday and today my laptop fan is on 24/7 at speed, I checked the time and they were almost 70 years, but when I did intensive work it got up to 80 c and he went really very hot.
  Today I've used and was surfing the net and the Messnger and bam, it has exploded. Not on again up to 30secs, so what happened there. It was quite hot and it's a very hot day

  aren´t there are many things that could be done by yourself. I mean, if your machine is overheating then there could be of the following reasons:

  -too much dust in the cooling system
  -cooling of grease on the processor has dried
  -cooling of grease on the GPU has dried
  -too many dust - dry cooling CPU & GPU fat

  For the cooling system which is blocked by dust, you can blow some compressed air trough it. But if the cooling paste has dried, then you should send your machine or find at least a technician who has some clues to this topic and change the fat of cooling.

• Satellite A300 - overheating problem

  Hello

  has taken delivery of a 2nd hand (use of the lamp) A300-1hv... whenever I run whatever whether in intensive the laptop overheats and stops.
  Fan speed shows all cores clocked at 65 c with normal use... and running Nero or similar it pierces upward and it dies on me...

  Now, I managed to understand the power of Vista (finally) settings and assured that he was on a maximum cooling but she still dies...

  Here are my questions

  1. how strong is the fan on these things, I can bearly hear mine all the time and never hear a difference?

  2. is there any application able to handle this better?

  3. someone else has this problem and found a solution

  4. it's less than a year even though I'm not the original owner is still valid warranty for me?

  Thank you for taking the time to read this and thanks for your replies

  Before you do something, you should try to clean the laptop first using a jet of compressed air. This could blow the dust from the cooling fans then.
  You can buy this from a local computer dealer.

  Clean from time to time my laptop and I can confirm that the jet of compressed air is very helpful and easy to handle.
  Try it and the laptop will not overheat again.

• Satellite Pro A40 inside cleaning due to overheating problems

  Hi Forum,
  I want to clean my Satellite Pro A40 carefully inside due to overheating problems.

  Can someone provide me with a sort of manual how to open the SPA40 correctly resp. How to clean it.

  I think that indoor air to blow a few tablets will not solve the problem, there is a lot of dirt and dust inside.

  IWant to do myself, so please do not recommend you speak to a technical expert.

  Thanxx in advance...

  Hello

  > I want to do it myself, so please don't recommend me to contact a technical specialist.

  In my own opinion, generally it s not a bad suggestion if some advises to contact a technician for laptop to a radiator cleaning because the dismantling of most of the computers mobile new generation is very delicate and not easy. Mostly one or the other has no experience and in this case, it is best contact an ASP to help him try to clean the laptop and probably damage parts.
  If the warranty is valid such procedure will void the warranty

  But don t worry buddy ;) I'll try to help you as much as I can
  I have goggled a bit and found it nice [statement | http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/ToshibaA45/Satellite-A45-remove-hinges-1.htm] how to disassemble the Satellite A45.
  The A45 is very similar to the A40 and so pictures of the laptop must be the same.

  Step 4 (photo) and step 5 shows the dirty radiator and how to remove it.
  You do not need to disassemble the laptop full but only the radiator at the bottom of the unit cover.

  Notes; Always be careful and don't use force to remove anything ;) and you know everything you do are at your own risk

  I hope I could help. Best regards and Merry Christmas ;)

  Good bye

• Satellite A655-11Z - overheating problems

  Ive had my laptop since November and for the last 5 months his serious overheating problems suffered. Initially, it was all game, but during the last 3 months, it happens when im on a webcam chat or Facebook. The fan is constantly on full, even when I run a cooler under it.

  I know 2011 models were recalled due to a problem of chipset, but the mine has not been included.

  Anyone who suffers from this? Or if someone can shine a light on what could be the issue. Its quite annoying for a laptop of £1300 to do.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I could imagine there is a lot of dust in your notebook that blocks air outcomoing and if your laptop is overheating. This not uncommon, if you n t s cleaned up in the last 5 months

  You can use normal compressed air jet to blow the dust from the cooling fans. That is why it s not necessary to disassemble the computer, so it can be done in 5 minutes.

  Laptop needs to be cleaned all 3-4 months, and from my own experience, I can tell that a lot of dust comes out if I do this. The laptop runs much quieter after the cleaning procedure.

• Satellite A300 - overheating graphics card

  Hello.

  My Satellite A300 got recently repaired from the Toshiba official represent in my hometown of Portugal. The problem was overheating, as usual. They understood the problem, it was dust and the radiator was malfuncion. They have changed the radiator and I paid 184,5 as a repair bill. When I got home, the problem still remained, and it seems worse.

  When I start a game, like world of warcraft, for example, the graphics card will of constant 50 degrees to 100 to like 10 seconds, and then the laptop stops.
  Someone could point me in the right direction and could they be scamming?

  I mean, I paid to solve the overheating problem, but they have not solved. Next Monday, I'll see what they had to say. Should I pay for another repair (repair minimum is 80, even if anything needs to be repaired).

  PS: Just in case where, is my graphics: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650.

  PS2: Sorry for the bad English, I'm Portuguese :)
  Thanks for reading this.

  Hello

  Theoretically it could also be a software problem if the laptop is overheating. I had the same problem because I installed display drivers not Toshiba and they had different thermal management so the laptop was overheating. I removed this display driver and installed the new Toshiba display driver and the problem was gone, because these drivers are designed and pre-tested by Toshiba.

  Otherwise I would also contact the ASP and check what they say. ;)

• Satellite A30: overheating maybe?

  Hello. I had a problem with my satellite SA30-303. When I run certain applications, such as WinDVD Creator and more recently, the online game Lineage 2 and a few others, my pc just stops completely, after an increase of "noise" coming from the ventilation. So I think it's maybe an overheating problem? Unfortunetaly, due to another person, this pc has been used on TWO napkins that were under it, and I think that could have caused this problem. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

  Should I open up the pc and clean vents and heatsink? Or do I really have to take it to the store so that they can do something? And how to open the pc to access the fan? Am I supposed to get out the whole half of the pc?
  Thanks in advance and sorry for the long post.

  Hi Jose,

  It is very easy to clean the heatsink on your A30. On the bottom of the adjacent unit at the entrance to two air grids is a small cover attached by two screws 'star '.
  Simply remove this cover and the heat sink is more visible.

  The heat sink is attached with four screws. Cancel them and the heat sink can be raised as a result. do NOT remove the heat, scatter the dough.

  Dust and debris can then be removed.

  Re-assemble the heat sink and replace the access cover.

  Work done and it made a significant difference to the ventilation of you A30.

• Satellite M40-133: problem starting after a stop

  When my Satellite M40 - 133 EN if I start it again all that I get is the Toshiba welcome screen.
  If it is left for a while it will start as usual. When executing it is quite hot.

  Help, please.

  To me, this looks like a problem with overheating.
  It seems that the laptop can not start and start properly due to high internal temperature.

  The main reason why an overheating problem is very simple.
  Don t cooling modules work correctly. In my view, that dust and debris prevent cooling with maximum performance running fans.

  Simply cleaning fan should help you.
  From time to time, I clean my fans too. I use a jet of compressed air. These sprays are very useful to get rid of dust and most computer/computer laptop dealers offer these sprays.

  If it will not improve the situation, then a mobile technician needs to disassemble the laptop and recommended to clean properly. In addition, it should renew the thermal grease that is placed between the CPU and the cooling module, too.

  Good luck

• What can I do on Satellite P35 overheating?

  Someone had permanent solutions to stop the Satellite P35 overheating. I had cleaned it by Toshiba, under the guarantee only once about from 6 to 9 months, but it is now overheating again and close with no warning except fans go crazy. I can't run on that very intensive applications. I use it from the Office of about 2 to 3 inches. I'll try to clean myself according to the instructions I found online.

  I also don't seem to be able to get system information to detect anything hardware or software, it is said he cannot access the Windows Management Instrumentation software and I am trying to run a program called Speedfan to monitor the temperature of the CPU, but it can not detect the CPU or else other things no more. Even the software Toshiba - computer laptop maximize cannot detect the CPU details.

  IM under XP Pro SP2 and Norton Internet Security 2005 Anispyware edition.

  Any help would be appreciated. See you soon

  Hello

  you are in a dusty room? What weather conditions are given to the place where you live? After reading your description, I assume your cooling system is clobbed with dust, which could be a possible explanation, why the machine turns off during load heavy.

  If I were you, I would first try to clean the ventilation/cooling system of dust (maybe you will need to bring your machine to the service partner once again) and check if the problem persists after cleaning.

  Would be nice if you give something to do in your situation :)

• BlackBerry Smartphones "BOLD" battery draining - overheating problems

  Hi all

  I'm new here I have BlackBerry for almost 2 years (curve 3000) and I was really happy with it (no problems) then I bought "BOLD" Saturday and has exhausted the battery - overheating problems! I downloaded the new software from T-Mobile Croatia site (they have one last but which did not help) after recharging and stay all night, he went flat within 6-7 hours so I went today (Monday) and they swapped the device for me, now I'm waiting to see what will happen. I have 4 questions:

  1 can I download new software version of the device from the BlackBerry site that even I bought in Croatia from T-Mobile and which will have consequences on the device? If yes what are they?

  2. what causes this battery drain - overheating problems and how they can be stopped?

  3. is Facebook app in conflict with "BOLD"? Yes I have it on mine.

  4 are all the other apps in conflict with it, i.e. Windows Live Messenger because I have too much that one on it?

  Thanks in advance!

  1. no consequence... the latest version of the "BOLD" OS device is located here:

  http://www.BlackBerryForums.com/General-9000-series-discussion-bold/194263-OS-9000-bold-4-6-0-477-4-...

  2 could be a number of issues, several. You have 3G enabled on your "BOLD", on the one hand, (manage connections > Mobile Network Options?, and you have a 3 G with Tmobile Croatia network?) I know not flippant, you could ask that. If your device is constantly looking for a 3 G network and not finding what will cause the big battery drain.

  Check your applications running in the background. There are usually four or five applications that will be always running (Messages, Call Logs/phone, BlackBerry Messenger, home screen and the browser; there are others such as BeamBerry and alarms which will run also). Ensure that the browser is NOT on an active Web page (must return the bookmarks page only). Close all other applications that do not need to be running (the camera or a game you were playing or Google Maps).

  3 No.The FB app is developed by RIM.

  4. What do you mean 'in conflict '?

• Overheating problem on my Equium A60

  Hi all

  I've posted a few more heating problems, a few months ago I've followed the instructions and cleaned the areas necessary, but the problem persists
  I ve downloaded a program that monitors the temperature of the different aspects of your machine, as HHD and CPU
  He claims that my CPU critical temp rises to 105, but it never reaches above 86 before his stop

  Anyone know if this problem is caused by the synchronization of heat or something like that being broken and no one knows everything good free programs that help manage your CPU and keep it cool?

  Has anyone else had this problem or something similar?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  All portable Toshiba have preinstalled power management software.
  This application run by the processor and the use of cooling.
  Usually, this app works perfectly and controls many options like the processing speed of the CPU, cooling method, turn off settings, etc.

  If you laptop will stop because of overheating problems, so there must be something wrong with the cooling module. I guess that it doesn t work full implementation.
  I can't give you an exactly the answer why it is not working properly, but usually dust and dirt inside the laptop is responsible for the failure. But if this problem persists after cleaning if the cooling module has a failure.

  In this case, the only way to solve this problem is to contact the service of Toshiba. It can check the module.

• Satellite A500 - overheating after BIOS update to 1.50

  Hi, I hope someone can help me.

  I updated the Bios to version 1.50 a few days ago and now the laptop overheats and stops after a few minutes, when I play a game (Day of Defeat Source btw, it is not the newest and shouldn't be a problem). This problem occurred for the first time after the update. There was no problem with the temperature with V1.20 before.

  Is it possible to downgrade the bios V1.20? Where can I download the necessary file? I can just download the latest version on Toshibas website.
  I have already asked the support of aid, but they did not send me a response up to now...

  Thanks for your replies! :)

  Hi Flex Barker,

  Are you sure that this problem is really caused due to update BIOS? Normally, these overheating problems are caused by the old thermal grease or dust often due to the radiator. In my opinion, you should try to clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.
  Check this box!

  Downgrade of BIOS is normally not possible. Older versions of BIOS, you can get your local authorized service provider. :)
