Portege R600 - the noise of the FAN

The system is a Portege R600-102.

When it was new, it was already noted that the CPU fan was unusually noisy when he started.
Loaded with the latest drivers and BIOS, system becomes louder, especially now when its warmer outside.
Fan and fan duct has been cleaned, no problem of dust.

Does anyone else have this problem or noticed this behavior?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

You can reduce the activity fan and noise by changing the settings in energy of Toshiba.
Please open and edit the parameters of the method of cooling. Upgrade the lowest.

I do the same on my laptop and now runs a lot quieter.

BTW: what operating system do you use?

  • Portege M800: The fan is almost always on

    Hello!

    I have a Portege M800 M105 with Vista 64 bit. The fan is almost always on despite the fact that the temperature of the CPU is about 43 to 46 Grad Celsius and the CPU has nothing to do. I used the program Speedfan (http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php) to display the temperature. I find that the noise of the fan is very noisy.
    Is there a possibility to control the fan, so that it will be only noisy when the temperature is high?

    Best regards

    Hello

    You are right. The Toshiba Power Saver for Win XP looks completely different as the Vista energy saver.
    But you can also change many settings in Vista energy saver that contribute to the use of the battery power decreases.

    The power settings are a bit hidden in the Vista energy saver but check this thread posted by Jayjay:

  • Portege R500 - the fan runs at full speed during the recovery from sleep mode

    Hello

    The fan in my R500 works at full speed when he was in the system sleep.
    The only thing that helps is a reboot. :-/

    Is there a solution to this problem?

    Hello Allan

    I really wonder that you define this as a problem. From my point of view the problem is something else. You have a problem when you cannot boot up your laptop. You have a problem if you are unable to use certain features or if you can not open the DVD player. It is a problem.

    Back to your problem: have you tried to change the power settings, to change the method of cooling in the Toshiba power settings? Play a little with it. I optimized the use of my wholesale Satellite P200 and the fan operates at low speed. OK it is not the best example to compare the two models of laptops, but try it.

  • Portege R600 - white noise problem

    My Toshiba Portege R600-102 a constant white noise (as you can hear on http://bit.ly/7HaRfn), which becomes apparent when the computer is used with headphones or connected to a speaker.

    This happens with the latest audio drivers under Windows XP and Windows 7.

    The noise does not disappear when I turn off the microphone or disable the onboard sound of the Device Manager.

    In fact, when I connect the laptop to a PA system pro (Edirol UA-101 with Yamaha MSP5) via USB, I get the same noise from Yamaha! That tells me that there is probably a fundamental problem with the motherboard.

    Someone has a similar problem? Or ideas?

    Does this happen with and without mains?

  • Portege R600 - no noise and webcam after updating the Mesangere Live

    I just upgraded my Live Messenger to the latest version (version 14.0.8064.206) and I discovered my webcam and sound system are no longer recognized - I get the message "unable to run audio and video Setup."
    I came across the message that the Chicony webcam may not work under Vista, but that this had been set under Vista SP1, I installed it, so this seems to be a new problem associated with the latest version of Live Messenger.

    Someone else you have this problem? All solutions becomes apparent?

    Interestingly, the video and sound work fine in Skype.

    Hello!

    Try to update the driver for the webcam and sound like said Garrett. You can find updates on the Toshiba site:

    What happened if you install the older version of Live Messenger? It works with her webcam?

  • Portege R600 - the touchpad cursor is out of control

    I have problems with the touchpad on a Portégé R600 running Windows 7.
    The cursor is out of control.

    When I'm scrolling a page and you have to push the slider on the page, the screen scrolls down out of control.
    Sometimes I can fix it up by double tapping the touchpad, but also often, it does not work.

    When I type the cursor will jump to another area of the page and insert the typing it.
    The combination of these problems sometimes makes the laptop almost unusable.

    I noted that several forum users have brought up the variations of this problem, but received no response.

    Anyone can shed light on how to fix?

    Hello

    I think that it s a temporal question regarding the sensitivity of the touchpad settings and the Microsoft windows OS.

    First, you must change the settings for the touchpad as PalmCheck sensitivity and sensitivity to touch.
    You can do this in Control Panel-> mouse-> tab-> settings the touchpad device settings

    In addition, you must make sure that the operating system is clean and that some background process don't affect the functionality of the touchpad. In many cases the touchpad don't work properly because of system overhead.
    Clean the registry with CCleaner, don't disable some no necessary process in msconfig and at least update the touchpad drivers.

  • How to reduce noise from the FAN on Portege M400 with Vista?

    M400 (* _VISTA_ * with newer utilities for electric model) FAN blows very noisy constantly regardless of real need for cooling.

    Even with zero responsible jobs, less than 1% (flat curve) of the activity, the processor speed to 50% in the model of power and all power to the minimum settings, FAN does not reduce the speed. After a reboot, for a short time, the noise is bearable, we can conclude that the FAN seems to be capable of low speed.

    _Problem is the same, even if the M400 is outside 9 ° c! _

    On all the M400, we, the problem is the same.

  • How to control the fan on Portege Z830?

    I have a Portege Z830 with BIOS version 1.7 and I am very upset by the noise of the fan.
    I was wondering if it is possible to control the fan noise, so I started to experiment with a little utility called SpeedFan. I put in place so that the fan will not turn on until the temperature of the processor exceeds a defined number. But it does not; It seems that the BIOS is ignorant these parameters.

    So my question is how can I set the fan to work my way?

    There are not many options to control the fan.

    The fan is controlled by the BIOS. The fan table that is stored in the BIOS contains information how a cooling module must operate.

    As mentioned by Liam, you can change the settings of power plant of Win 7 more battery as a way to minimize the performance of fans
    This should help a little...

    In other http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=65068 thread, I found a neat trick of the last user... He replaced Z830 fan with the fan of Z930 origin...

  • Portege R600 - difference between the cooling options

    I have a Portege R600 with Windows 7 installed, but I guess my request is generic for all Porteges regardless of the version of Windows.

    Could someone please explain to me what really mean "options of cooling" in the power settings? I could not find the details of anywhere.

    Optimized battery means that the cpu fan is activated only beyond a certain temperature? And what is the difference between cooling and maximum performance?

    Is there another way to set the speed of the cpu fan directly?

    It is a very important point for me, because the fan of the Portege is terrible, too noisy, insofar as I plan to return the laptop unless I find a solution. Sometimes, this looks like a Ferrari to RPM 1 billion engine!

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I think the explanation is quite simple: optimized cooling battery means that the fan is activated only on a temperature higher than the maximum performance mode and that s all I think.

    For example, if I put the battery optimized cooling notebook is a little hotter than the maximum performance mode, but if I can save energy. ;)

    In addition it s advisable to clean the laptop from time to time using a jet of compressed air!

  • My Mac was purchased in November 2014. The fan makes a noise Purring but stops when I lift it and hold it vertically. I just got this back from repair to the workshop of John Lewis as he made a further strong noise.

    My Macbook (one and a half year). The fan has become noisy and I just got in return for repair from John Lewis. The problem is that I think that it is still too noisy. He runs not fast, but it is noisier than it was when we bought it first.  The fan noise also stops when I take the Mac on the end. Is this normal?  Thank you.

    There is no such thing as a MacBook 1 year and a half with a fan.

    The 12 '' MacBook isn't a fan.

    The last MacBook with a fan was the 2010 model.

    Perhaps you have a MacBook Air or a MacBook Pro, if so you should post your question to one of these areas of the forum.

  • Installation of SSD drive and the noise of the fan to the MacBook Pro?

    Hello

    Just replaced the stock 5400 RPM HARD drive in my MacBook Pro mid-2012 with an SSD 480 GB Sandisk and now the fan makes a loud noise. Sounds like it's revving at full speed. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Thank you.

    You can try Macs with Intel processors: System management controller (SMC) reset and see if that fixes the problem. Unless you make a mistake in the reassembly, the two should be independent. On the other hand, it could be something in the design of the SSD. Personally, I would like to replace it with an OWC or OCZ.

    To check if the two are somehow connected try to replace the old HDD to see if the fan slows down. If it then reinstalls the SSD, making attention to do correctly and re - test. See how to install the ribbon cable short connecting the drive to the motherboard. It's easy to get the pins on the misaligned ribbon cable.

  • Portege R600-13Z - Toshiba utility SMS - slow / stop when the SIM is in!

    Hello

    Portege R600-13Z running XP Pro.

    Recently updated the firmware and the Wireless Manager to try to get 3g / GPRS comms to work at all. Updated worked a treat and have now great comms.

    Utility of SMS does not work too well if. Very, very slow or crashes.

    Wierdness: out the SIM card to use the phone to send a few texts and with the SIM on SMS utility works very well (!) starts, allows composition, everything except the real /sending/ of the text, which is of course not possible because the SIM card is somewhere else.

    Anyone encountered this problem, and is there a solution?

    Thank you very much

    > took out the SIM card to use the phone to send a few texts and with the card SIM SMS utility works great
    If you noticed delays in using DMD utility only with the inserted SIM card?

    Hmm I m not very well why this happens, but I know it s not recommended to insert the SIM card if the system is already running.
    You must shut down the laptop, must insert the SIM card and then you should power the device in place.
    Then you could test this once more.

    Has anyone with the same problem or anyone suggesting a solution?

    I uninstalled the truesuite Access Manager but still the same problem.

    See you soon.

    Hello

    I noticed a new update for software fingerprinting for protected R600.
    Remove the old application of fingerprints, restart the laptop, clean the registry and the system using a 3rd party too (CCLeaner is free and not bad).
    Then reboot again.

    Download the fingerprint on the page of the European driver Toshiba Software and install again.

  • Satellite M40X - the noise of the fan

    Hi all.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite M40X - 161 (PSM4XE).

    I had this problem with the fan of the computer running all the time and make a lot of noise because I bought a few years ago.
    Once I had the fan cleaned in the shop of service it was ok for a few days, and then he started again.

    Is there a solution for this problem? I read that Toshiba has released new versions of BIOS that solve this problem, but for laptops with ATI/nVidia video cards.

    I have an Intel card. Is there something for my model, and someone has fixed this?

    Hello

    Is not a friend of the problem.

    The cooling modules must be cleaned periodically. It s not enough clean the fans only once the dust appears more if it s necessary to regularly clean the cooling modules.

    You should also take a look in the power of the Windows operating system options.
    Most of the time it possible s control of the CPU performance and cooling performance that would reduce noise and fan activity.
