Quosmio G20. Fan gets loud, then stops.

Hello.
The fan on my G20 seems to be much more noisy that when I got it, then very hard and she stops.
Very hot just left of the right speaker. I used to get all sorts of errors briefly onscreen. (IE: failed to load powrprof. dll has been one of many)
Then I would get the dreaded blue screen, and it would just shut down. Now, I get no message, just a noisy fan all the time then it sounds like its taking power off before stopping. I would really appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction.
Thank you very much.

Hello

first of all, you must clean your ventilation system to remove dust that might clob heatpipe system and the processor fan.
Just take a few tablets canned air (which can be purchased in all electronic markets) and gently make some short hollow blasts the ventilation holes on the side/rear/bottom of your machine.

If this does not help, I suggest you to bring your machine to a technician or at least to an authorized partner of toshiba. They do a hardware check and maybe clean your cooling system.

  • Satellite M35x-s109 - screen is black, the fan works momentarily then nothing

    I have a Satellite M35x-s109 (4 years and more under warranty). I went to turn on the laptop after being in hibernation for a few hours.

    The fan kicks on momentarily - then stopped working. The screen displays a picture very very low sign windows on the screen but nothing else. I can not even a cursor appears. It is powered as indicated by the Green led on the front of the laptop. The battery is fully charged. I tried to connect with the power adapter as well. I tried to connect an external monitor to the laptop.

    The only image that appears is the Windows form indicating which loads. Then after a few seconds of loading, the image on the external monitor is empty and the monitor goes into sleep mode. The laptop is turned off automatically or custom fade at all and the only way for me to turn it off is to take out the battery.

    Any ideas what's wrong with the laptop? Thanks in advance.

    It's very strange question. try to remove the battery, leave cell phone 20 minutes without any food and try to start with power current only. Try it without, and later with the external monitor.

    When the external monitor goes into standby mode, try to use the FN + F5 key combination to see if you get the image on the external screen again.
    Play a little with it. If nothing is done it may be something serious with the screen and I'm afraid that you need professional help.

  • TouchSmart HP Envy 15 - fan runs loudly

    This morning, I needed to recharge my phone. As the laptop has resided on the ground, I lifted one side of the laptop until you find the power plug-in and accidentally slipped my hand. The height of drop is about a foot or less. Then I booted up my laptop, it ran for a few seconds and turns off. I started again and this time it works correctly. However, the fan runs loudly and he will not stop until I turn off my laptop. I guess the bit is as strong as the 2nd level of the fan. Does that mean something is wrong with my hardware/driver? Help, please. Thank you.

    This should help:

    You need to let the people decide are they to the high rank or stop each addon in site to denigrate. The fact that voluntarily make you your users to frustration and then to act arogent when asked to stop is just childish. We can vote in the leadership with ethics please!

  • Satellite L755-11j - cooling fan seems to have stopped working

    Hello

    I have the model Satellite L755-11j and I'm really happy with it, strong, fast and reliable, I have only one problem: my cooling fan seems to have stopped working.

    I don't know if it's a hardware or software (BIOS is set to dynamic switch, and in the power management is set to 'Active') delivers, because I come from Croatia, diagnostic PC is incredibly overpriced here and I can replace the fan on my own.

    I want to just make sure I don't buy new cooling fan and my problem persists. Install speedfan and Toshiba PC health monitor only confirmed what I suspected, my laptop gets hot.

    I bought the external cooling fan to help keep the temperature of my laptop down, but with the coming of the summer that I really want to solve this problem.

    To be honest, it is not easy to help you with this. Is that cooling fan works automatically and there is not a special option where you can control. Only thing you can change is the cooling method option that you can find in the advanced power options > Toshiba power saver.

    Check it please what option is set to on. Of course on this virtual path, it is not easy to tell if the cooling fan is defective or not.
    It works or not? Can you notice hot air flow when you put your hand on the cooling grill placed on the left side of your laptop?

  • Satellite C660 - 2d 7 continuous fan start-up and stop - is this normal?

    Hello! I have a 'newbie' question, if anyone can help, I would be very grateful :)

    I got a refurbished c660 - 2d 7 Currys yesterday and the fan will continue turning and stopping. Usually too much worry (it's not particularly strong or whatever it is), but as it's a refurb. and I don't know what he was returned for before, I want to make sure it's healthy! It does not warm at all, it is stone-cold to the touch and I don't do anything too tender (a couple of tabs open in google chrome and sometimes a solitaire game), but maybe that's not hot because the fan does its job, hehe! It gives a little quiet snoring then stops every few minutes, what is normal and OK?

    This is my first time owning a computer windows laptop and from what I've seen other people, the fan is usually noisy or not altogether (will not compare to the MacBook since they like mini cookers and little need to operate the fan at the maximum all the time), so I wondered if he was trying to start the fan/fans maximum and default? Is there a utility on it anywhere which will check if the fans are okay? (It came with many Toshiba apps, they have not checked this yet).

    If this is normal, and they do that, that's fine, I just want to fix it as soon as possible if she is sick or must replace fan/fans. Thanks for any advice you can give!

    Edit: Also the hard disk is divided into two equal partitions, is it possible to cancel this easily? It seems unnecessary to have shared it this way when he uses only 8 GB for data recovery!

    Hello

    Yes, it's nothing unusual, that the fan continues to go if a certain level of temperature was approached.
    Alternatively, you can control this behavior a little fan.

    You can change the power of Win 7 to friendly State management settings battery.
    In this case the CPU wouldn't create too much heat, and cooling modules would not go too often.

    Safari. When opening a site, the page frequently does not. The blue progress bar moves about half way and then stops. I can get to move usually by reloading the page, but it's slow and frustrating.

    It does occur on a particular site. Now, it seems to be fairly general.

    WiFi is good so I don't think that's the problem.

  • HP photosmart B210 series: Photosmart B210 prints only partial pages then stops (Mac osx)

    Hello

    My printer HP Photosmart B210 more often than otherwise, print documents of the half, then stops mid page and eject half print. For images, word documents, PDF, and 4 x 6 photos, as well as wireless printing, or plugged directly on the USB printer.

    What happened for a few years now, over different versions of mac os x.

    'Help!' he seems to get more frequent... :/

    Greg

    Welcome @greg_a_leg,

    Thanks to their participation in Forums of HP! I see by your post that the complete documents are not printing from different applications. I will definitely do my best to help you.

    Try a self-test printing material in order to exclude a hardware problem: print a Network Configuration Page.

    If you haven't already done so, repair the permissions of the drive on the Mac:

    • Repair disk permissions:

      • Click on your desktop so that it is written next to the Apple Finder icon, and then click Go (you'll see it next to the Finder after file, edit and view).

      • In the context of Go, click Applications.

      • In Applications, select utilities.

      • In the Utilities folder, you will see the disk utility, double-click on this icon to open the disc utilities.

      • Click on your hard drive, and then click first aid. Click Run to allow it to run.

    Reset the printing system:

    Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer deleted can be re-added later by clicking the sign plus (+) symbol.

    Click on the Apple icon and then click on System Preferences.

    Click on Printers & Scanners.

    Make a right click (or Ctrl + click) in the left white side panel, and then click Reset printing system.

    Click OK to confirm the reset.

    Type the name and the correct password.

    Click OK to reset the printing system.

    Then click on the sign to add the driver, highlight the printer +. (you may need to click the drop down menu to select the name of the printer) Then click the Add button.

    Let me know how recorded the name of the printer in the Printers & Scanners window.

    How is the printer connected?

    Feel free to click on the button 'Accept as Solution' and the 'Thumbs Up' for my help. Please let me know the results and if there is anything else I can help you. Thank you!

  • Acer Aspire D255E turns on, displays on screen, then stops in a few seconds

    I just bought an Acer Aspire D255E with a cracked screen.  I tested it and it worked fine.  Replaced the screen with a new brand, and the result is that it turns on, shows the opening screen, flashes what looks like the screen you get when you stop abnormally, then powers down.  It if also out tension in all the time even though I have F2 in the BIOS.  Anyone know what is happening here?

    Hello

    One of the panels for the Aspire One D255 2677 LCD part numbers is:

    LK.10105.002 - AUO B101AW06 V1 LF 200NIT 8MS 500: 1---> you have the right part.

    You wrote:

    "I forgot to take the battery when I first changed the screens, but it does not appear that should hurt anything."

    Unfortunately, Yes. If you have a small power surge when you plug in the Panel, you have damaged it.

    You can connect an external monitor or an LCD TV using the VGA port. I hope that you have not damaged the neat chipset.

    Hi Donald,.
    Here is a walk through one of our best community members Bruce Hagan.
    I think that this is your specific problem.

    Error number: 0x800C0133 = a corrupt Inbox.

    Move any message you want to save to a local folder that you create. Then, remove the problem of Inbox as follows.

    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder options | View.

    With OE closed, find the box of Inbox.dbx and delete it. Another will be created automatically when you open OE.

    General precautions for Outlook Express:

    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
