• Satellite M40X-129: fans works with a maximum return on Vista

  Hello

  I have the laptop M40X 129 for 2 years and am very satisfied in this regard.
  But since the last few weeks, I have problems with the cooler.
  If I use a 3d task in the lower first 45, that the system works without any problem.
  But his is warming a heater and cooler will then maximum (you can hear it).

  From this moment, the system becomes very slow. I run the system with the highest maximum power and use windows vista professional.
  The laptop feels too hot on the underside (ram?).

  Is it possible to run the cooler from the start at a higher level, for example in the bios or in windows (some options?)?

  I hope you can help me,
  Flo

  Hi Flo

  Usually, there is nothing wrong with your laptop. If the internal temperature rises to a higher level, the cooling modules have to perform with maximum efficiency to lower the temperature!
  While the temperature is high the graphic driver Toshiba decrease the performance of the graphics card in order to avoid a temperature rise.
  That is why the laptop could run slowly!

  What you could do is check the cooling fans and if necessary try to clean with a compressed air jet professional. These aerosols can be purchased from the merchant to the computer.

  However, please note that the installed Vista is in need of more computer resources as the beginning s MS Windows operating system. All devices like CPU and GPU with superior performance and so the temperature is higher with Vista as using other Windows OS such as XP.

  Good bye

• Fan works with performance of 100% from PSAY3 by Satellite P750-10 t

  Hi all

  I had a problem with my laptop.

  I bought this phone last week and I noticed a few unexpected stops due to overheating. Whenever I have turn on the fan works with approximately 100% of the performance, but when I finally in my OS (Win 7 64 bit as it was delivered) it stops to regulate.

  If I start to play games or greater than 1 Adobe product at the same time, it starts to become warmer.
  Whenever I check the temperature via Toshiba PC Health Monitor, it shows that the temperature is at a point of chritical but fan runs always with about 30-40% (80% shown)... is not even half as strong as it is after turning on the pc.

  I don't know what to do now? Will there be a Toshiba programs/tools to solve this problem?

  I tried Speedfan and other programs, but they don't even show my fans.

  Sorry for my bad English.

  > I bought this phone last week and I noticed a few unexpected stops due to overheating. Whenever I have turn on the fan works with approximately 100% of the performance, but when I finally in my OS (Win 7 64 bit as it was delivered) it stops to regulate.

  I think that this happens because of the auto-off before.
  I think that the BIOS has noticed the condition of temperature before the laptop off and so the fan run faster just by turning on the device

  But he s strange that fans run faster while game or do a job with high performance applications.
  In my opinion you need the BIOS default and it should test with factory settings

  PS: you have the latest version of the BIOS? The most recent at the moment seems to be v2.40

• My Satellite A100 GPU fan works 100% all the time

  First: I have the Satellite A100-440 with GeForce Go 7300 and XP Professional (and Ubuntu).

  There is something wrong with thermal control. The first PC Wizard has always shown that the temperature of my GPU is "a very large number" and the fan is runnign 100% all the time (the main problem). Then I installed ATItool hoping he would show the temperature correctly. Well, it worked in part. Now when I check the temperature with PC Wizard, it indicates the temperature of the GPU normally (like 30-40 degrees celsius), but it also shows the GPU Diode temperature it's "a very large number" (as 4.294967E + 09 C) and the fan will operate at 100%.

  I tried to control fans with RivaTuner, but nothing happens.

  So if anyone has an idea how I could continue to solve the problem, I would be very grateful. I don't know if the problem is with the hardware (I could take this service) or with the software...

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Why are you talking about 'problem' and 'solve this problem?
  I see no problem!
  First of all I'm not all 3rd party applications that monitor temperatures. I'm not 100% sure if these applications provide a good values.

  However, as far as I know the laptop was shipped with Vista and not XP and Linux. You do not use a factory settings. It seems that you have set up the laptop with new applications and you should know that all the software installed and running insists on the CPU and other parts.

  BIOS fan table supports different temperature and cooling of the speed measurements. This means that if the temperature rises to a higher level, the cooling module starts and tries to decreases the internal temperature.

  Usually the temperature depends on the use of the laptop. If several processes of the OS are running in the background, that the CPU performance are high, the temperature rises and the fans start to run. There is nothing unusual about it.

  Furthermore, the dust and debris inside the laptop might have a bad influence on the laptop cooling. From time to time, it is advisable to clean the cooling modules.

  Last but not least the laptop must be placed free on table to ensure the circulation of air correctly. Don't forget that there is enough free space around the laptop.

  Finally, I must say that one of my friends has an A100 and the fans run correctly.
  This means that the cooling modules works with maximum performance while playing games or using graphics software.
  However fans do not work with maximum performance using only common programs like IE software or office.

• Re: Satellite A210 - cooling fan will not stop running

  I am owner of a Satellite A210 laptop. I've owned this during 2-3 weeks. Thursday, I noticed that my fan was working very hard, fast and never stop. Before that, he'd come rarely. I restarted the computer and once it came the fan came and does not stop. I left it for 30 minutes and it still continues. I checked down to see if she was overheated and it wasn't. I bought a little chilled out air and breathed he threw the two events, but she still continued.

  Should I take back at the store that I bought and ask if they can fix this problem or is there a solution that I have not found?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Try it please change the option of cooling method in the power settings to see if the cooling fan works more slowly. If there is no difference, you can contact the store and see what they say about it.

• Re: Satellite L550 - cooling fan suddenly stopped working

  About two weeks ago, I placed my laptop down on the ground. When I picked up two minutes later, there was an error on the screen that read something like "there is a problem with the cooling system, please contact your nearest centre of Toshiba. Since then, the cooling fan has failed.

  I replaced the fan with a different, which also failed, then maybe the problem is the system not the fan? Is there some settings within the system that allows me to manually turn the fan on and off?

  > I replaced the fan with another
  Which means that replace you it with another model?
  Well, I think that another model of fan will never work because notebooks are specific products designed for certain series/models only. This allows you to change the t as well as on desktop computers.

  In my opinion, you should contact the nearest authorized service provider. Guys can replace the fan and order a new one. If your laptop is under warranty, the repair will be free. :)

  See you soon

• It's strange how the cooling fan works on Satellite L20

  I have a little problem. I bought the Satellite L20-182.
  When I turn on the computer about 10 minutes is quiet.
  Then the fan starts as a hurricane, slows and stops after a few seconds.
  The fan works this way on a regular basis with intervals of one minute.
  Toshiba why don't BIOS where the fan runs constantly, but with a lower speed?

  Hello

  I don't really know what to tell you, if you look around, on this forum, will find you a lot of people asking the same thing.

  As much I know as no firmware or BIOS is available which will help in this case.
  Bad thing.

• Satellite A135-S4527 cooling fan works more efficiently

  Hello

  I have an A135-S4527 and the cooling fan is having issues.
  It works at low speed constantly, as it usually does, but almost never, he runs in mode high speed.
  Clearly, it must be that the air temperature is high enough... about the temperature of the exhaust gases from the typical vehicle.

  I'm worried that it will burn upwards if I have not fixed, but I don't know what needs to be fixed.
  I use a "Chill Pad" USB power under him at all times to make it work more fresh than the factory settings, but this problem has arisen only recently.

  I've owned this computer from a little less than two years now.
  5 months in the property, the HARD drive failed and had to be replaced (it goes without saying, I save ALL my important files now).

  Does anyone have information on this topic or the normal functioning of the cooling fan?
  If so, it would be greatly appreciated.

  Nick

  Hello!

  As Akuma, it could be that it takes more dust in the cooling fans or fan doesn t work properly.
  So in your case, I'll try to clean first using a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans. You can buy it at a computer retailer.

  If it doesn't work you should sent to an authorized service provider. Technicians can check your laptop and clean.
  Maybe the thermal compound must be renewed and technicians can do for you. It of a little more difficult to disassemble a computer laptop and you need to remove a large number of screws so he sent to an ASP.

• Satellite U940 - cooling fan loud

  I bought a brand-new U940 Satellite two months ago.

  Last week, the fan has started to be very strong most of the time.
  It can cut for a minute, but in general, it is strong. It can also make a sound of scraping by moments.

  According to my Toshiba Health Monitor, the CPU temperature is about 50%.
  I guess it's high, and that's why the fan works.

  However, this laptop is new - so I don't know why the fan is noisy AND the CPU temperature is high.
  I'm afraid that it will cause problems in the long term to a laptop that I had only a short period.

  What can be done and how concerned should I be?

  Post edited by: c8ie

  At first, I must say that there is no reason to panic. Cooling system is optimized for certain platform hardware so hardware will be cooled properly.

  I put t know how I can you use your laptop, but if you use it for daily activities like office, internet or use cat with balanced power and also change the settings in some power for the cooling method plan. Set to optimized battery option. It should reduce the activity of fan cooling.

• Satellite C660-108 - fan keeps running

  I just bought a Satellite C660-108 and pleasure keeps running all the time. Is this normal?

  Hi Judith_2,

  If your laptop computer is in idle mode, it isn't normal that the fan still works. Normally it should start and stop as on other models.
  But if you run some background applications such as Internet browser, Antivirus, etc., it may be normal because the CPU causes a lot of heat and it must be cooled to protect it from damage.

  Anyway, you can try to change the cooling method in Windows power management. You can choose between a maximum Performance and battery optimized. If you want to reduce, change the value of the latter.
  I confirm there is really a difference between the methods of cooling and optimized battery is much quieter.

• Satellite L750D - cooling fan will not turn off

  Satellite L750D-14R
  BIOS - 1.30
  THIS Version 1.10
  Temperature CPU Fan of 46% 53% speed

  Hi, just bought this laptop (5 days), the cooling fan is not turned off, the computer feels cool so don't know why it has run all the time. Read other articles on the upgrade of the BIOS but wouldn't go the upgrade in case missed me something obvious. It is a laptop replacement after the last Toshiba laptop (3 weeks old) no longer works in total. Prefer if possible to fix this with the help, rather than lose the computer for 3/4 weeks for repair, any advice would be greatly received.
  Thank you

  I put t know how you use your laptop computer but try to please use it with balanced power management. Change coolant also option method of optimized battery option. Cooling method you can find in the power options advanced > Toshiba Power saver settings.

  Please test and send feedback.

• Satellite A660 - cooling fan is too slow

  Hello

  I own TOSHIBA Satellite A660 - 10 X
  the problem is that fan will slow (when the laptop starts its goes much faster that slowing it down). Problem is that the laptop is overheating and that it stops without any warning. I'm working on it and must be reliable.

  I tried the power management but there are only "optimized batery' or 'up', but at least it won't max for sure.

  Is it possible to check the speed of the fan? I tried several aplications to see fan speed but they do not work.

  And I never found fan in BIOS.

  You use applications that require a lot of graphics performance?
  S your laptop sitting on the desk when you work with it.

  Do not forget that all the vents, especially downstairs are not blocked somehow.

• Satellite C660 - wave fan constantly BIOS problem

  I have a Satellite C660, PSC0LE submodel.

  The fan (CPU) is constantly growing and turn off every minute or so. He is strong and extremely intrusive / boring. It is occurs regardless of the load / CPU temperature. I have seen references to this topic, and some people have suggested that a BIOS update to fix it.

  I updated my machine to the latest version available (1.40), but it is not fixed.

  I see that this (PSC0LE) submodel has not later than some of the other variants (there is a version 1.8 for some other submodels C660) an update of the BIOS and I think the fan problem is solved in that.

  Toshiba intends to solve this problem on the PSC0LE via a new BIOS, or y at - it another way to stop what is really distracting.

  TIA,
  Dan

  Please try to reduce the speed of the cooling fan change advanced power options > Toshiba power Saver saver > cooling method.

  For normal use I recommend to use the balanced feeding and management game, cooling method to lower the level. It should reduce the activity of fan cooling.

• Satellite M70 - cooling fan does not start

  Hello.

  I recently got a little work Satellite M70 - CL1 to a friend. Everything works, but the cooling system is malfunctioning. Fan made ramp-up at the start, but then it does nothing. I tried the XP system installed inside, and ubuntu 10.10 does not seem that the fan is running. My friend said the fan strikes, but at the moment he does, too little too late and the system freezes due to overheating. He managed to stay alive for 20 minutes on his own cooling power.

  Any suggestions on what's wrong? Maybe it's the temperature probe that is defective?

  Hey,.

  Of course, it's not always easy to tell what the exact reason is on this virtual path but probably dust blocks the cooling fans and so it may start t and the laptop is overheating.

  Clean the fan and the heat sink is not very complicated, because you can use the jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans. Everything is described in this very useful Toshiba article on cleaning of your laptop:
