Re: My Satellite M series gets hot

My satellite M series laptop gets very hot today.
After a while, the screen turns white due to overheating.

Help, please.

Hello

Clean fans and cooling grids in the past?
If this is not the case, this!

Eventually the cooling grids are obstructed by dust and debris and that prevent air circulation
I removed the dust using a jet of compressed air that is the best workaround.

  • Satellite P105-S6147 gets hot

    Hello:

    OK, I should have left well enough alone. Maybe, someone could give me some ideas.
    I downloaded an upgrade of the bios as described on my model [Download bulletins | B&BV_SessionID=@@@0481258105.1207876274@@@&BV_En gineID = cccdadedkldjdficgfkceghdgngdgmm.0 http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_modItemList.jsp?moid=1598566&rpn=PSPAAU&ct=S]
    If you are unable to access this link, it's for a Satellite P105-S6147 under the heading support capsules.

    I thought I was relieve a problem that might appear in the future, but what I have now, it's a laptop much warmer that is internal fan turns on constantly even if he is sitting on a laptop cooler. I have had this machine for about a year now (and bought the cooling block at the same time) and I can count the number of times where ever I felt the heat from the machine (I speak from beneath my fingers on the keys).

    After a few days of this behavior, I thought I'd do a system restore that would change to original bios and the system restore was successful. However, the laptop still seems more hot than before and the fan kicks on often internal especially when svchost has climbed by about 30% CPU, and if I have several programs open.
    Before that, the cooler laptop seems to work enough.

    I did no changes of parameters of power, unless the bios flashing brings changes in power settings. But it not always cause feel me the heat from the keyboard would? Could be overheating my battery?

    Seems to be more common when the a/c power cord is connected.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    > After a few days of this behavior, I thought I'd do a system restore that would change to original bios and the system restore succeeded
    This is not good. Restoring the system to refresh the Windows operating system preinstalled, but not the BIOS.

    One question; have you noticed any sudden and abrupt stops?
    It is a common symptom in case of overheating of the laptop.
    The notebooks are supported protection against overheating. This protection will close the laptop if the temperature rises to a higher level.
    If the computer laptop doesn t turn off then the temperature inside the computer laptop doesn t come at a critical level.

    For most dust and debris inside the cooling modules prevent the fans work properly and therefore these overheating problems could happen
    In such cases, it s advisable to clean the fan using a jet of compressed air.

    Conversely, the laptop can overheat if you n t use drivers graphics original Toshiba!
    The graphics driver Toshiba control the performance of the GPU. If the temperature of the GPU is too high, then the graphics driver decreases performance of the GPU to decrease the temperature of the GPU.
    This is necessary because the notebooks do not have huge cooling modules like graphics cards for desktop PC.

    The non-Toshiba drivers are not certified and not tested and can not control the GPU performance as the drivers of Toshiba.
    That is why a graphics driver non-Toshiba might be the reason of this overheating!

  • Satellite M40-265 gets hot on the left side

    I noticed it right after that I bought and went serving Marktkauf, they said it's ok. But now it's for sure NOT ok!
    I tried to measure the temperature on the left side where the warm air comes, and she was already above 42 c as the thermometer, shown error.
    The keyboard is also hot on the left side. It is uncomfortable for the hands and more I fear for the laptop.
    What should I do? How to get the service?
    I'm in Germany, Berlin, bought in October 2005.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    On the left side of the laptop, you will find the fan grids.
    I guess there is the cooling module and placed CPU.
    The cooling module produces the heat on the left side.

    Usually the laptop supports protection against overheating. This means that the laptop stops automatically if the temperature rises to the high critical level.
    If you laptop is not closed automatically so I guess that the temperature is not high.

    However, you can try to check the settings in the energy saver and change the cooling method.
    But if you think that there is something wrong with the fans or the module of cooling so you can ask the ASP in your country to help him.
    Here you will find the right service partner:

  • The bottom left of the Satellite L500 gets hot

    I have tried to understand it, but can't find any decent help on that.

    I have a 5 years old toshiba Satellite L500 and continues to get very hot on the lower left side. Now, I know that my hard drive is in the bottom right and this side never gets hot. So what I need to know is really what the balls - what is getting hot at the bottom left?

    I can't find patterns that can tell me exactly which part is which on the inside, so I have no idea of what gives me questions when I'm using the internet or play games. I have a fan in my laptop and it is on a surface of grated so air can get to it easily. The problem lies in the lower left hand side.

    As is - this does anyone have an idea why the low 1-1, 5 cm my screen gets too hot? It would be great! Thank you.

    As a writer, it is very worrying that these things as I need my laptop to stay alive for a year or two. (Cannot afford a new and use it for literally everything I do...)

    > So what I need to know is really what the balls - what is getting hot at the bottom left?
    How about the vents?

    The left side for laptop contains cooling grids, and you will find the cooling fans.
    Hot air flow by the left hand side so the surface s mobile is hot

  • Satellite L100 gets hot - it's all about fan?

    My Satellite L100 becomes extremely hot on the left.

    How can I be sure that the fan is working?

    This is one of the oddities of the satellite series, she becomes hot around this area.

    This is where the "radiotor" of the laptop.

    Don't worry, it's good

  • My Satellite L350-171 gets very hot

    My Satellite L350-171 gets very hot and then stops spontaneously. When I pass it back on I can get the message that he has not closed properly and I want to boot into SafeMode etc.

    Does anyone else have this problem / solution?

    Solution?
    This isn't the latest model cell phone, so I assume it's pretty full of dust that blocked cooling grill and the cooling fan. In my opinion, you should clean it up to cooling system of free brand of SCT. After this laptop will be able to take a new breath and material can be cooled correctly.

    How to do this? On the internet you can find many pages and short films how to do this using compressed air. Google around a bit.

    Second option is professional cleaning. In this laptop case will be disassembled and cleaned cooling system. Of course, it is the best solution but must be done by authorized personnel only. Contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask how much it costs. It is perhaps not so expensive.

  • Satellite P series shuts up to 20 times per day

    Hello everyone.
    I was wondering if you could help with this problem.

    Computer portable Satellite to my son kept totally extinguish up to 20 times a day, so I tried to do a re-installation using the recovery CD offered 2.
    I put the laptop to boot from the CD and followed the instructions on the screen to a complete reinstallation hoping that that would solve its problems.

    The 1st CD gets only around 15% and the laptop turns off completely new.
    I tried now must be 10 times and once get on CD 2, but even once, it crashed before finished.

    I would really appreciate help on what the laptop is now totally useless.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello!

    The laptop gets hot?
    You can hear the fan or is always off?

    Maybe you should clean the fan with compressed air jet.

    Otherwise, you should go to a local ASP. I think that there is something wrong with the motherboard.
    To check your laptop.

    Good bye

  • P series too hot and sound card problem

    Hello

    in recent weeks, I have a problem with the temperature. The P series of satellites is much too hot, even if only the essential progs are running, the processor runs with 100% very often. Without the Task Manager (to close the CPRS) of "windows" the machine crashes several times down!

    And since I've updated the driver sound in August this year, the sound may not be performed correctly. The sound card is not identified by diff. progs. MP3 direct cut and sound blaster, during the race.
    I can't save anything! So bad!

    Hello!

    Clean the laptop? You can use spry compressed air could blow the dust from the cooling fans. So do not disassemble anything.

    Which audio driver use? Toshiba or manufacturing as Realtek? Maybe there already is a new or try again with the old driver.

    Moreover, what Satellite phone do you have?

    Good bye

  • Satellite Pro A300D down hot and stops shortly after. Help!

    Hello together,

    3 weeks ago, I bought the Satellite Pro A300D laptop. Since the beginning, I have the problem that the laptop gets hot and stops less than an hour!

    I'm not running any application of high performance and I keep the left side of the free laptop so that the hot air can get away! I already cleaned the heatpipe using a vacuum cleaner.
    It could not be! I need the laptop for work and that it is impossible...
    What can I do? Should I send him?
    Help, I'm grateful

    There could still be dust stuck in the radiator, but you say that its only 3 weeks to dust is unlikely.

    Its under warranty, so take it to a Service Center for repair. This may have the thermal grease refreshed or something.

    Is it possible to use the port replicator (Docking Stations) for Tecra series laptop with the Satellite Pro series?

    Hello

    No, as far as I know it of not possible to use a port on laptops Satellite Pro Replicator.
    All laptops that support the Port Replicator has a port extension at the bottom of the unit.
    To my knowledge, the Satellite Pro series don t have this port.
    For now only the Tecra and some units Protégé(ie: S100) supports this feature.
