Qosmio G20 - left cooling fan turns noise at startup

After installing the BIOS ver 1.3, when the laptop computer powers until the cooling fan left running so strong, I thought it might burn or smoke.
After windows has completely turn on the fan turns off after about 5 minutes.

If I restart the pc, the fan is operating normally.
Has anyone else had this problem, can I might get their hands on the older version of BIOS?
It is pulling my hair.

Hello Anderson

Sorry, but your ad is a bit confusing to me.

> If I restart the pc, the fan is operating normally.
Restart or normally power is almost the same. Updates means you have noticed this fan cooling problem once right after the BIOS?

Please watch carefully what happens the next few days. If the behavior of cooling is always strange I recommend you contact the service.
In the end, one thing is strange. Qosmio G20 isn't the newest model and this version of BIOS is not either yesterday, but you are the first person who has noticed this.

    Can I change the fan, that I built PC for 20 years.

    Hello

    You can try to look at this document.  It's maintenance and repair for the HDX 18 series, it is not listed under manuals for your model, so it is perhaps not entirely accurate, but it should be close, since this one is listed for earlier versions of the HDX 18 series.

  • 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

  • Qosmio F30-112: cooling fan runs very fast

    Hello

    I want someone ask them, my computer laptop qosmio F30 - 112 recently whenever I start my computer, I heard that the cooling fan runs very fast (I mean) it wasn't stop differently than before his execution smooth only I heard when I play games but not continuous, then after that my computer now running slow.

    Can someone help me what im going to do?

    Thanks: rtmasagca

    Hello

    F30 is a little older series laptop I think about 3 years or more... you cleaned the cooling modules in the meantime?
    I think there is a lot of dust and debris inside the laptop and I think that keeps air from traffic and therefore fans run faster.
    Try the compressed air jet that should help to remove dust and debris.

    Good luck

    How did you check that?
    Have you used a new test strips of memory and the new HARD drive?

    To be honest, I don t think that your HARD drive is affected. The vertical dotted lines, could be more related question of graphics card in terms of the HARD drive.
    RAM question could also be possible, but I think that its GPU.

  • Qosmio G20: Fan makes an awkward noise when he turns around

    Hey everybody,
    Another problem, but not Vista! Although it is always a problem!

    My exhaust fan makes a clunky noise when it runs. I hear it's going along and round like a noise of rachetty and then at other times its fine.

    Someone at - he had this?
    Should I open and give it a clean?

    Hello

    It's not easy to tell if the fan is malfunctioning or not.
    Qosmio G20 is a laptop very powerful and cooling modules are larger and stronger as modules on any of cooling for powerful laptop.
    If you use the solid performance applications such as games or videos of the cooling modules will work with maximum performance and are stronger.

    But of course; the cooling module could malfunction. In this case, it must be replaced.

    If please turn off immediately and return it for service. »

    A soft purr escaped from the bottom left of the part of my computer, on the location of the DVD player [there is no disc in the drive]

    I then reset the computer and has not yet received the message, but the soft hum was still there.

  • Qosmio G20 error message: problem with the cooling system has been detected

    I'm trying to fix a Qosmio G20 (which is about 3 years old, it is no longer in warranty).

    Error message: Warning: a problem with the cooling system has been detected.

    I managed to remove the outer case and observe the operation of the machine, and basically one of the fans does not at all. The fan which is closest to the power connector seems to work very well (he seems to be turning a lot, do not know if this is normal), but the other fan who does not seem to move at all.

    When I put in place the case and on the machine, I noticed after a few minutes the vent of the fan working heat sink had warm enough, while led the non-working fan remained cool.

    I cleaned the fan from dust and have also changed the BIOS battery mode mode high performance, but the problem still exists.

    I would be grateful if someone could give advice if the problem is the fan or something else.

    If the fan is the problem, where I can buy a: i live in the United Kingdom?

    Hello

    I think there might be something wrong with the cooling module and the replacement would be necessary.
    Usually, this should be done by an authorized provider (ASP) in your country.

    Technicians could replace it with a new part and also could renew the thermal grease which is placed between the module and the CPU cooling.

    So contact the ASP in your country and ask for later handling.

    By the way; also, you can buy the cooling of the ASP module!

    Good luck

  • Qosmio F750-030 - the fan noise so that the closing

    I purchased a Qosmio F750-030 in September 2011 for the first weeks, it worked perfectly, but after a few weeks the fan has started to make noises when she stops.
    Looks like a jet and it is really very strong. I don't a not to worry about this at first. But generally, it runs at 50-55% now, whenever I try to do more than one thing about it, he climbs up to 70% and starting to make the same noise.

    I put it on the Eco mode which prevents him from jump that high. But now I'm starting to worry about all the noise it makes when it stops. I stopped to use it as well because of this, but it's just a waste since I paid a lot for it, it's still under warranty, but I wanted to know if anyone has any ideas why it would do this or I'm better off just ringtone Toshiba and see if they can fix it.

    I understand the CPU needs to cool down but I had a lot of laptops and it is the first which makes kind
    Noise?

    Please help me any suggestions would be very grateful.

    Please change the parameters for the method of optimized cooling battery. This option can be found in the advanced power options > Toshiba power saver.
    This will reduce the cooling fan activity and your laptop will run quietly.

    When the laptop turns off all background processes should be stopped. In this case the laptop runs faster and it is not uncommon that cooling fan runs faster. I assume that you have installed additional software that runs in the background and it is the reason why you didn t hear cooling fan in the past.
    Believe me there is no reason to panic.

  • If your Qosmio G20 I slow-> check your fan!

    Hello

    I found my Qosmio G20 to be incredibly slow, especially in the e/s (HDD) operations and also in games.

    Games like CS, Battlefield 2, etc got very low fps, I tried to reinstall the OS, new drivers, detonator, tweaking drivers drivers and finally I installed Vista.

    Of course, I thought that vista would improve performance and there are no, however only at this stage, I accepted that this laptop is quite obvious horrible for game purposes, which I thought was kind of weird, because she is a "multimedia" with 2 GB ram, 200 GB raid-0, 2.13 ghz pentium m laptop geforce go6600.

    I know the 6600 is not high-end, but it should support the cs: s, etc.

    A few days ago, my laptop suddenly turned off while I woke up in the morning (I let it run 24/7).
    Then on Friday, he started the turn off self while working on it: S

    It's when I installed a HW monitoring tool and saw that the CPU had a temperature of 111 degrees celsius!
    I swapped the battery of performance profile to save battery and it has lowered to 106 degrees celsius.

    Now, I'll just send the laptop to the service, such as when it was purchased 3 years extended warranty, as well as the on-site repair has been paid for.
    I was however unable to get contact with support on Friday.
    In any case, you fan might be bad, even if it does not vibrate.

    I'd install HW monitor tools if you get the same symptoms, very slow, slow IO uninstalls, installs, etc. Especially under Vista.

    Hey Olav Alexander

    Thanks for this information
    You are right. Qosmio G20 is a portable high quality with great performance. I tested this unit and played a lot of games. The performance of the game were lavish; I didn't notice the intermissions of any graphic or speed

    That's why I think he had a problem with your laptop hardware, as you say the temperature has risen to critical levels and this can be caused by the defective cooling module. The performance of the computer laptop and games down automatically if the temperature is too high because the CPU can't run at full speed. It is a normal state.
    I guess after the fan replacement or cleaning, the laptop must be running as should be.
    Don t worry dude the technician will perform a work ;)
