Re: High temperature on the Satellite A100 PSAA8l

My laptop Satellite A100 PSAA8l is very hot to can up tp 95 temp... scares me!

Can someone HELP me?

Hello

It s a time ago since the A100 was released on the market.
It could be a main reason why the temperature rises to this level.

Cooling modules are blocked and that air can circulate properly.
Check if there is dust and debris inside the cooling modules.
Usually, you can use a jet of compressed air to get rid of the dust.
I did it in the past and it helped.

In addition, make sure that there is always sufficient free space around the laptop.
Don t use it on knees, sofa or in the bet.

  • High temperature on my Satellite A100-159

    Hello

    I have my laptop almost 5 months now and this week it crashed during a game, and I had to wait until it has been cooled before that I could start him again. Since then, I have installed speedfan to check the temperature when I'm just on the net and using msn the CPU is about 58 degrees, although I heard that is normal I think it is too high.

    Also when I play a game or use a lot the power of my CPU temperature going up to 88 degrees, is this normal or is there something wrong with my cooler? Since today he has also made more noise then before I think. Is there a program where I can check my fan speed with also tried to check for laptop, but it gave the same temperatures and says nothing about my speed of ventilation or stuff like that. So, what should I do?

    There is no plant more but I stopped playing the game because I have to study too much :)

    No, 58 is certainly not too high
    It of also not uncommon that the temperature rises to a higher level during the game or run other applications of strong performance.
    In this case different devices such as CPU, GPU, running with a maximum yield and produce a lot of heat.
    I can t give you a tip about the fan speed and noise coming from the cooling module, but of course, it is possible to s that the fan is malfunctioning.

    Eager for overheating the laptop to be used on the table and not on the knees. (some people use in the bed or knees).
    Also, make sure that there is enough free space around the laptop for the circulation of air correctly.

    But if you think there could be something wrong with the fan then you could ask a technician for a control. I think that the guarantee is valid. Am I wrong?

  • High temperature on the Satellite A300-135

    Hello

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite A300-135 for 2-3 months and I have a problem with the temperature.

  • Fan on the Satellite A100-225

    Two years ago in may, I bought the Satellite A100-225. I have always noticed that it got very warm, but a few months ago it was not a problem. However, a few months ago, it began to overheat during execution of the tasks of joel, but I never thought much about it.

    Then, one a few weeks ago I started my computer to realize that the fan was now only turns not at all, and I have no idea why. I tried to install a new update of the BIOS and check if there is any debris stuck. You can still use it, but only for short periods. However, today when I was about to stop because it was too hot, the fan went on for 3 seconds, then it turns of. He the did not once again even if I leave it at the same temperature.

    I have to buy a new fan? My father and I have been looking for one that adapts, but so far we have succumbed.

    Can someone offer me some advice please?

    > Should I buy a new fan? My father and I have been looking for one that adapts, but so far we have succumbed

    I think you should first clean the front fan start you away from stocks
    Dust and debris inside the laptop could prevent fans turn with maximum performance and this could lead to a higher temperature.

    A use of the spray of compressed air could get rid of the dust and could help with this problem
    But if it doesn t help you should contact the ASP in your country for assistance.
    Guys could check the laptop and could eventually replace the fans.

    The big problem is that the laptop disassembly procedure is very delicate and risky.
    So these replacements should be made only by a technician for laptop.

    Bye and greetings

  • Blue screen with DVB - T USB TV tuner comes with the Satellite A100-165

    Hi all

    I have the Satellite A100-165 with PX1211E - 1TVD USB DVB - T TV tuner (TV savvy). I think the installation is OK because I can watch TV on my PC!

    But occasionally PC reboot with blue screen! :-((Je pense qu'il lorsque le niveau dele de signal TV est inférieur)
    I update the driver warned with the version I found on the Web from Toshiba site: savvytv-udvbtt - 10180629.zip
    But it's always the same!
    You have an idea about this problem?
    I can agree to have a bad display when the signal quality is lower, but it is very annoying to often have a blue screen and PC reboot!

    Thank you in advance on your help
    Best regards

    Hello

    I think that this can be corrected with the latest display driver. Please visit the Toshiba download page and install it.

    If the problem is fixed, please write again.

  • Impossible to get PRTSCR DEL + keys to work on the Satellite A100

    I have the Satellite A100 - 232 PSAA2E. Bought in Greece... If some of the keys have a second role - for Greek letters. Especially not a problem.

    However... I can't get led (top-right) to work and same (3buttons on the left led) the print. Is there a setting to change or is there another way to remove and print screen?

    Your ad is somewhat confusing. Satellite A100 is pretty old laptop so I do not understand how you have this problem now.

    Everything was ok in the past?

    As far as I know you can change the keyboard input language, but this has nothing to do with DEL or PRINT key features.

  • What Watts value using the Satellite A100-771?

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A100-771. Does anyone know how many watts the TI needs?
    In my car, I have a 200 Watt 12 volt DC to inverter, but his does not.
    Is it possible that the laptop needs more than 200 watts?

    Thanks for your help!

    Hello

    As far as I know the satellite A100-771 uses an AC adapter reference number: E/PA2521U-2ACA 15V 6a 90W.
    In addition, you can use these adapters:
    AC adapter PA2521U-3ACA (2pin 90W/15V) and PA2521E-2AC3 (90W/15V 3-pin)

    I put t found any information on the car adapter, but I think you might be able to buy from any distributor of mobile or you can order from the Toshiba authorized service partner in your country.
    I think that guys will order the part directly from the warehouse of Toshiba.

  • Update on the Satellite A100 HDD

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A100 (PSAA9A-0CU004), which came with a 80 GB hard drive.
    Anyone know the max HDD capacity this notebook can handle, as I want to upgrade to a larger disk.

    Thank you

    AFAIK the Satellite A100 already has a HARD drive with SATA interface.

    On the SATA interface, there is no capacity limit you can buy each HARD drive with SATA interface, what you want.
    The new HARD disk must have SATA and 2.5.
