• 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 ;)

• On Qosmio X 870 overheating problem

  Hey there, so the problem is that as it says in the title.
  I bought this Qosmio in June 2013, and it worked perfectly, when I played the games for a long time and others, he treated them well, but 4 months after it overheated and was arrested for the first time, it kept happening whenever I tried to play games so I gave up on them , because I would not damage the processor or graphics card. In the meantime, I bought a cooling package for the computer laptop and that has helped, the laptop was not overheating as easily.

  Now, recently, I came back to my country and was finally able to send the laptop for repair, the problem is, toshiba said it's a software problem and material, and well, I find it really hard to believe that everything was up-to-date, such as drivers and so on, I don't have really anything to the laptop when it started overheating so I honestly thought it was hardware problems. What makes believe me the excuse of software or even less, it's that they they do not want to specify what the software problem, they just say it is the software and want me to pay to repair the laptop, probably format. If it helps, I found dust more than once on the bottom of the laptop, I guess it was one of his events who accumulate fast enough dust.

  I even asked the opinion of some technicians who work with laptops and such and they all alluded to hardware problems, such as dust, fan works not not or probably the thermal paste which maybe dried up.

  So I want to know your opinions and suggestions on this topic, it is possible that it is actually a software problem? Because I installed everything that I wanted in the first month and then never messed with what whatever ever and the laptop has always worked until he started to overheat for no aparent reason. Only, it takes about 15 minutes of game then stops, eco mode helps you last longer, but also eventualy stops. I also tried to lower the graphics in the game, but it's not help. temperature of the laptop was still about 50 - 60 (celcius (I think) when I was not using any programs, I would check the temperature with tempro. If I used a software like photoshop and other then he would get quite warm, but not to the point of paralyzing however.

  I hope that these descriptions help.
  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  I have the same machine as you and have very similar problems!

  Things that have helped to:

  Clean the fan. Laptops are generally quite inadequate cooling and if this fan is clogged it will make a big difference. One of those small bottles of compressed air it blows everything, or if you feel confident take it apart to access the fan to obtain directly. Do it regularly.

  Re-apply the thermal paste on the processor. This requires some caution, but there are a lot of video tutorials out there - put a dough of good quality is really cheap but usually help much. It did for me!

  Change the political cooling system. Go to control panel > power options > change plan settings > advanced settings. Find the political cooling system and make sure that both options are on * assets * not passive.

  Make sure your drivers are updated to 100%. Check all this.

  I also use a cooling block.

  My internal fan has stopped working before, but I didn't know that as my block cooling fans have been making noise again. This may sound stupid, but I want to watch it.

  That's all I can suggest me, I hope that he could make a difference.

• 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 A100: Need guide to clean the fan

  Hello

  My Toshiba Satellite A100 is about 18mnths old. Recently, it started to freeze and crash in particular when using any CPU intensive process. I think that the laptop could be overheating - recently, I noticed that the fan seems to be a lot longer than it used to be.

  I want to keep it simple and do not go so far as to clean the radiator or the change of grease between the CPU and the heatsink. I want to just open the case and give the Interior a clean place.

  First, is it reasonable? OR should I clean the radiator, change the fat, etc.

  Second, there are tips online with step by step pictures? I searched and found nothing for my specific PC.

  Thanks in advance.

  > My Toshiba Satellite A100 is about 18mnths old. Recently, it started to freeze and crash in particular when using any CPU intensive process. I think that the laptop could be overheating - recently, I noticed that the fan seems to be a lot longer than it used to be

  You might be right! These symptoms are related mainly to an overheating problems.
  Especially these behaviors could begin if the laptop is a little older and it was not cleaned before.

  So first of all it of necessary to says you won't find all the instructions (photo) on the page Toshiba how to clean the fans generally this procedure must be done by a technician for laptop

  However, you could make yourself using a jet of compressed air. These aerosols can be purchased from the computer or some google simply online dealers

  I cleaned my fans several times and used this spray. It of very easy to use and it helps to get rid of dust and debris.

  Good bye

• Overheating problem Aurora R4 SOLVED!

  I posted a few days ago on my aurora overheating problem but got no real answer... I decided to find the problem by myself and look at what I found...

  My theory was that my pump wasn't working because 1 hose (the fate) was getting really hot (almost cannot touch) and was cold.

  So I removed my complete watercooling systems

  the liquid inside pump was always the full problem here

  

  The entrance on the right side only... no problem

  

  And finally... the problem, the release of the liquid has been totally blocked by this thing gelly

  

  So I cleaned it with alcohol, rolled new thermal paste on the CPU and here we go

  Front

  

  After

  

  So I hope that this thread is going to help someone because I did a lot of research and found nothing that helped me.

  And I have a question for alienware support wasn't was not the watercooling system was supposed to be maintenance free?

  That look like a poor quality watercooling fluid! And it's not old I bought my computer in June 2012 then guaranteed ended 1 month ago...

  I know the people of Dell to read these discussions. It seems that it is a known fault and why too much happens. It should be brought to the attention of the one who makes the cooling systems and power to Alienware. It's just a forum among many others then, how many of these failures are not reported. The fact that it happens just once the guarantee runs out looks like rather questionable.

• Equium A60-155: how to clean the fan?

  This isn't a problem as such, more than one request. How do you clean the fan? A litle while ago my laptop kept turning off itself, and it turned out to be part of the problem I the fan was clogged so I was wondering if anyone knew how to clean so I can myself sorting in case it happens again. Thanx

  Hi Jemma,

  The problem is that dust is sucked into the fans and is then trapped in the radiator CPU effectively blocks.

  A good way os compensation this accumulation of dust is to use a hose of vacuum cleaner against the aspiration air grills so that dust is sucked in. Just put the hose against the grids of aspiration air for a few seconds and block any gaps around the pipe with a cloth.

  Kind regards

• 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

  Jake

  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 A200-13R - black screen after cleaning the fan

I try to press Fn + F5 reboot screen * but again is black *.

  Any solution please?

  Thank you

  You have disconnected the display while you cleaned up the laptop?
  Are you sure that the display is connected correctly?
  Check the cable?

  > The laptop shows that read the hard drive and the processor works well.
  How do you know that? Flashing LED HDD?
  You know, it's not easy to say what may be the problem.

  You can also try testing with external monitor.

• Satellite Pro 6100: blue screen after overheating problem

  My laptop overheats a year ago and since then I can only use it for about an hour at a time. First sign, it's going to blue screen, it's the hard drive starts clicking and about 5 minutes later, he dies.
  Let it cool down for a few hours, then it is well again. It is not the disc hard as I tested it in another laptop.

  Any ideas?
  I desperately need to work again, it has been the best laptop I've ever owned, and I hate the idea of having to buy a new one with a touchpad.

  Hello

  Generally, the laptop overheats because the cooling module may not work correctly.
  I guess that the blue screen appears because of the overheating.
  In this case, I would recommend checking the cooling fans. Fans cannot work properly because of the dust and debris.
  The use of the vacuum cleaner is the best way to clean the fans.
  But be careful.

  In addition, the square around the laptop must be free. It is important that fans can take a breath.

  Clean the fan of the laptop and repasting once a year would be nice, or if the computer is heating upward than normal.

  There are a lot of application that monitors CPU and GPU temperature,

  If you want to refresh the thermal paste / rebonding of your laptop, that's what we normally use

• Acer 5742 g overheating problem

  Hello

  I have some problems with my 3 and a half-year old laptop. When I play games on it, it is so hot that it stops instantly. Normally it's about 100 degrees but sometimes it goes back to 103-104. I have also an extra cooler, 200 x 200 x 20 mm, 850 rpm which does not seem to help that much.  My computer turns off usually 2 - 3 times a day and that is really annoying and I don't want to damage my computer and I can't understand how to solve this problem.

  Hope someone can help me
