Re: Satellite L350-PSLE8E - overheating problem

I bought in November 2008 two model laptops TOSHIBA L350-PSLE8E 01J003GR by Metro Dornbirn.

In a notebook, I have the problem that it stop suddenly for several months. But it can also run several weeks without problem.
Even if the laptop is directly on the desktop and vents are not covered, the laptop has how overheating - it stops immediately.

After a cooling period, it starts normally and works without problem.

Even though I am satisfied with my Toshiba notebooks, are this extremely annoying sudden failure.
What can you suggest me?

What we offer you?
At first try to clean your laptop.

Who knows how many dust is inside your laptop.
My cell phone is always placed on the desktop, but when I check the lower side whenever I see dust on the cooling rack.

  • Satellite A655-11Z - overheating problems

    Ive had my laptop since November and for the last 5 months his serious overheating problems suffered. Initially, it was all game, but during the last 3 months, it happens when im on a webcam chat or Facebook. The fan is constantly on full, even when I run a cooler under it.

    I know 2011 models were recalled due to a problem of chipset, but the mine has not been included.

    Anyone who suffers from this? Or if someone can shine a light on what could be the issue. Its quite annoying for a laptop of £1300 to do.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I could imagine there is a lot of dust in your notebook that blocks air outcomoing and if your laptop is overheating. This not uncommon, if you n t s cleaned up in the last 5 months

    You can use normal compressed air jet to blow the dust from the cooling fans. That is why it s not necessary to disassemble the computer, so it can be done in 5 minutes.

    Laptop needs to be cleaned all 3-4 months, and from my own experience, I can tell that a lot of dust comes out if I do this. The laptop runs much quieter after the cleaning procedure.

    Hello

    I bought a * Satellite L350 - 03 M PSLD0C * with XP installed on it (I uninstalled Vista) +. I installed all drivers successfully, with cable Internet works but I found a driver for my wireless Atheros network card (or it is an Intel adapter?

    So I reinstall the driver about 4 - 5 times but same result: a warning from Windows telling me to reinstall...

    I did a lot of research but I have not found anything of *(on Atheros, Intel and Toshiba website) *, and I tried a few Vista drivers and much more... Nothing works...

    Now, I'm desperate...

    Is there anyone who can help me?

    Hello

    First of all I see that you do not know what card WLan had in Notepad.
    Turn the laptop and check the labels at the bottom of the unit.
    It should be placed on the wireless network card info.

    After you have discovered what the WiFi card has been installed, I recommend to visit the page of the Canadian driver Toshiba and download and reinstall WLan driver compatible.

    After installation, check the LAN in the device manager card if it has been installed correctly.

  • Satellite L505-13F - overheating problem?

    Hello

    Nearly a year after the purchase of a Toshiba Satellite L505-13F, I started noticing problems with temperature (it starts goes to 70º, sometimes more, hitting 89º), even had the computer just turned off (not the right way through the windows, instead, in an instant, it's on, the other is off when it hits 90 degrees). I bought a cooling rack to keep the computer at low temperatures, but the position is not so good and temperatures get brought to 60º at best, but does not solve the problem temporarily.

    Usually, I have Skype (normally I'm not on a call so the cpu is not dope, but I the ocasional call), msn, irc, have a program to check emails regularly (thunderbird) and have firefox open. Maximum CPU spikes or 32% with all these open (normally this is 9 to 14% or more), so I don't think it's any problem related to the massive processing (but like anything else, sometimes it stings to the largest percentage, but not so much that, nor for as long). I use all these at the same time. Because of the temperature problem, I installed an app to regularly check the State of the system.

    The problem is internally in the computer, I guess it's maybe because the fan is stuck or something. I clean the dust when it's time, but it also solves the problem temporarily (I do not open the housing of the computer, however, because it is under warranty and I don't want to void the warranty or break the computer). I would like to find a more permanent solution without having to buy anything else I don't think it's the right solution for the problem.

    The computer was purchased in 2010 and the warranty is 2 years, so I guess it's possible to send the computer to fix, but I'm not aware of the procedure of this situation.

    After showing the problem, the question is: what are the steps required to check this problem? I have to send the laptop to the store (where I bought it) to send to toshiba or what I need to send it to me?

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    PS: I'm an advanced user, I do a lot of things with the computer, but I can survive a few days without computer (maybe: P)

    Dust and debris are the main reasons why the laptop overheats. Dust inside the cooling modules prevent fans turn faster which affect the cooling and leads to a higher temperature.
    So, as you said; withdrawal of aid of dust that you and this should be made from time to time.

    It is a temporal solution for you, you say? Hmm, I do not know how you want to use the laptop is a room free of dust? Only this would prevent the dust of cooling modules.

    I have to clean my laptop using a jet of compressed air. This allows and does not affect my warranty.

  • Satellite x 205-overheating problems

    Hello, I have recently had problems with my Satellite X 205 get well over 80 C 74 C while playing games and Idle.

    I solved the problem for several days of cleaning of dust on the computer with compressed air can. Unfortunately, the problem has increased again but this time simply by using the box made it worse! I think I can have done the fans in the spin of the laptop to fast and now they can't turn at all! If you turn the laptop upside down on the left there is a visible fan that i can see works, but on the side right, there is no grid, and I do not see the fan. If I place my hand on the grid, I can feel hot air coming from the laptop so im thinking the fan can work properly BUT the laptop is IDLE at 74 ° C! He never went more than 72 c when I played games in the chart now complete its just climbing! IM afraid even open any additional programs due to the heat already.

    Also please not I have the laptop sitting on a TARGUS CHILLMAT and STILL so HOT! Maybe I blew dust in the CPU box? MaybeIi must disassemble the casing 100% to check? I do not know how to get to the CPU, I know only how take off plates on the bottom and I DON'T want TO VOID MY WARRANTY Please HELP!

    > I DON'T WANT TO VOID MY WARRANTY PLEASE HELP!
    Clear and reasonable statement, but be honest what can you do? Not much. You can simply place your laptop so that the vents are not blocked. If you face this problem in the future maybe service can help.

    Another question: have you installed a third party graphics driver or you use Toshiba stuff only?

  • Satellite A110-225 overheating problem

    Hello

    I would like to know if there is a known issue with this model for the CPU overheating and if there is a solution for this. I have this laptop for over a year now and I used to have the toshiba tecra A1. When I got this laptop, it is very noisy compared to my old tecra.

    I can not even put my laptop on a flat surface like a table! I have to put something underneath to raise the laptop so that air can circulate better. But this isn't a way to work with your laptop!

    When I use the laptop for a 7-8 hours straight (nothing special IE, torrent, etc.), the CPU fan starts to blow very quickly and from a certain point, it stop by itself. I'm guessing its because the temperature of the CPU is to reach the maximum temperature and avoid dammage, it stops.

    I am very disappointed with the management of the heat of this product. I love the screen, I like the design, the performance is OK for me, but the heatsink has really let me down.

    Is there a solution to this, rather than "oh just clean your heat sink"... I did not helped at all. "

    Welcome them

    Hello

    As much as I know Satellite A110 is not the latest model cell phone and as I see use you it pretty intensively. The fact is that sucking cooling fan in a lot of dust in the laptop and the dust blocks cooling rack.

    To clean properly the laptop must be disassembled and I am wondering how you cleaned your heat sink. Clean, turn it on in a professional way and you will see that laptop cooling fan runs much more slowly and you will not overheat issues more.

    Sorry, buddy, but this is your first option, you need to do. I don't really understand what answer or the solution you expect in this situation. What is the alternative? To install software and force the cooling fan to run faster than before? What do you think?

  • Satellite L350 - WIFI connection problems when it is plugged in to recharge.

    I have a problem with my laptop - whenever I have it plug in to recharge after 10 minutes my Wifi connection goes down, it can detect my wifi network but cannot connect. However when my laptop not charging it remains connected until the battery goes down. I can not think of all the solutions and can't find answers on the internet. I am sure that this isn't my wifi network that is the problem as I have said, it connects and remains connected to each time when no charging current.

    Any help would be really appreciated.

    Hello!

    Have you tried to update the driver WLAN and the BIOS? The two you can find on the Toshiba site:

  • Re: Satellite C660-11W - overheating problem

    Hello

    I have this laptop about 2 months, so the solution to this problem may not be that my laptop is old and is inside the dust...
    If I just surf the internet, notebook temperature is around 40-60 degrees, but if am I game it goes quickly to the top (65-75)
    -maybe after 2 hours set temperature rises and I leave the game.
    If the temperature is around 75 degrees, computer startup are loud and I think he's going down...

    What should I do?
    Thank you

    After reading your ad I n don't know what the problem is. The temperature that you mentioned in your ad is not the critical level, so I think there is no reason to panic.

    When you want to play the game, close all unnecessary applications, switch to plan of power high performance and ensure that notebook is properly placed on the desktop. Cooling fans should not be blocked and the laptop should be able to take a breath.

    Until there is no unexpected switch off there is no reason to panic.

  • Satellite L350-17Z: Question recovery disc creation - problem with calibration

    I'm eager to get win xp instead of vista current on Satellite L350-17Z because some soft is not stable and vulnerabilities, while under xp on the desktop computer, I had no problem. XP compatibility mode is not solve this problem.

    So I decided to do it in a cruel manner as a laptop is new and almost empty, not to mention the habit of hard drive xp. Still I tried to make a recovery, using TOSHIBA Recovery Disc Creator.

    Buta * during DVD burning there is a fault and message about some problems with the calibration. I tried a few discs - same result.

    Hi Snen,

    It would be interesting to know what CD/DVD drive you have. Maybe you should try to update the firmware of the drive. For some readers of Toshiba and Pioneer, the site shows an update of the firmware. It s worth a try!
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    And what kind of DVD that you use to create a recovery disk? I have good experience with the types of DVD - R and I use Verbatim.

  • Satellite Pro A40 inside cleaning due to overheating problems

    Hi Forum,
    I want to clean my Satellite Pro A40 carefully inside due to overheating problems.

    Can someone provide me with a sort of manual how to open the SPA40 correctly resp. How to clean it.

    I think that indoor air to blow a few tablets will not solve the problem, there is a lot of dirt and dust inside.

    IWant to do myself, so please do not recommend you speak to a technical expert.

    Thanxx in advance...

    Hello

    > I want to do it myself, so please don't recommend me to contact a technical specialist.

    In my own opinion, generally it s not a bad suggestion if some advises to contact a technician for laptop to a radiator cleaning because the dismantling of most of the computers mobile new generation is very delicate and not easy. Mostly one or the other has no experience and in this case, it is best contact an ASP to help him try to clean the laptop and probably damage parts.
    If the warranty is valid such procedure will void the warranty

    But don t worry buddy ;) I'll try to help you as much as I can
    I have goggled a bit and found it nice [statement | http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/ToshibaA45/Satellite-A45-remove-hinges-1.htm] how to disassemble the Satellite A45.
    The A45 is very similar to the A40 and so pictures of the laptop must be the same.

    Step 4 (photo) and step 5 shows the dirty radiator and how to remove it.
    You do not need to disassemble the laptop full but only the radiator at the bottom of the unit cover.

    Notes; Always be careful and don't use force to remove anything ;) and you know everything you do are at your own risk

    I hope I could help. Best regards and Merry Christmas ;)

    Laptops can be equipped with various wireless network cards, and that's why you can find three different WLan drivers on the Toshiba page.

  • Satellite L350 - where to find the latest driver for graphics card?

    I have a Satellite L350.
    I installed a game (EVE online) and it works as it should; However when I use alt - tab, the game crashes.
    It is not supposed to do this, and on the other PC it does not crash.

    I contacted the technical support for the game itself, and after reading my dxdiag, they concluded that it was because my drivers are up to date.

    They said specifically the graphics and audio drivers are the cause of the problem.
    I have a Mobile Intel (r) 4 series express chipset family graphics card, and the driver is dated 06/12/2008.
    my sound card is realtek audio and is dated 11/02/2006.
    I tried to update the graphics card on the site of intel, but the program tells me the installation was not validated for this computer and I had to contact the manufacturer.

    Anyone know where to find the updates compatible with computers laptop toshiba?

    Yours sincerely,

    Hello trouble

    Please remember you have laptop and not of office. What you have done is just and it will help with the office, but on laptops, the situation is very different.
    Graphics card is suitable for the use of the laptop by Toshiba and downloaded driver from the manufacturer of the graphics card can not be installed.

    As you know probably common problem with laptops is heat and temperature of the material must be controlled. Graphics card too high temperature can ends with overheating and book cut or damage the equipment. Toshiba laptop to protect material must ensure on the pilots and don t allow to run on the limit.

    I must also say that your laptop is not game machine.
