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

  • Satellite L50Dt - A - touchpad suddenly stopped working

    Hello
    I'm not a part of L50Dt-A Satellite. PSKM2A. It is running Windows 8.1.

    Last night the touchpad suddenly stopped not working, no cursor on the screen.
    The little mouse on the touchpad indicator has not been and is not yet lit.
    So I pressed the Fn + F5 key so many times, but that didn't work back.

    I went to the mouse properties in Control Panel, and under the hardware, it is listed.
    In Device Manager, there is nothing under the mouse either.
    I went to the site of Toshiba and downloaded the driver for the touchpad.

    However, on installation, it says that this is impossible because the computer already has one.
    I need to uninstall and reinstall.
    However, I don't find the touchpad synaptics original anywhere to uninstall driver.

    Everything is updated via windows update and I ran the troubleshooting tools and that you have restarted, and so far, nothing has worked.

    I plugged in an external mouse so I can use it.
    But I'd like my touchpad mouse works again.

    Any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

    Thank you

    I ve never been faced with this problem, but try first to make back the OS to an earlier time using system restore just to see what will happen.

    In this whole thing that it is confusing that touchpad isn't listed in the Manager under the mouse devices and other pointing devices.

  • Satellite Pro 6100: fan has stopped working

    I recently decided to copy out all my data from my laptop and it just stopped. It was very very hot, and the hard drive has not worked since. I put a new disc in and installed the software but it heats up really fast. My question is this all a result of the fan (I can't hear more) stop and is it possible to buy a fan and install it myself - I've already cracked it open and got down to the fan and it looks like dust-free. I am pretty handy and want to do it myself.

    If the fan is originally where can I buy a replacement?

    Hello

    This looks like a laptop computer could overheat.
    If you can't hear the fan or cooling module is bad or there is something wrong with the motherboard.

    In my opinion, the cooling module must be checked and possibly replaced.
    All parts and devices can be controlled from the maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country.

    Just call the guys and order the compatible part or if you have no experience, ask the guy to help him. I think that you should not replace anything by yourself. It may be damaged anything else. The technicians have more experience and can locate and solve the problem much faster.

    Good luck

  • Cooling fan does not work on Satellite Pro A300

    Hello world

    I was asked by a friend to repair their Satellite Pro A300, because their CPU cooling fan had stopped working even during the start of the POST and the laptop could overheat and shutdown. So I thought it might one of three things:
    # Fan is obstructed by dust or dirt
    # Rolling fan failed
    # Fan power cable was loose

    So I disassembled the laptop and cleaned the fan/radiator with compressed air and check the connection of the supply, which was solid, but this does not solve the problem, so I replaced the fan and the heatsink with another that I knew worked from the same model laptop that had a motherboard fault due to the bug of password to start random bios (out of warranty) but still no joy.

    I'm starting to believe that the fan was perfectly fine rather motherboards temperature of the processor or the sensors that control the activation of the fan has failed.
    Am I correct in thinking that it is essentially, irreparable without specialized tools and my friend will be content themselves to turn the system off each hourish or is there something else I forget?

    Thanks for any help.

    Hello

    I m not a technician, but for me, looks like the fan connector is working properly if you already replaced the fan and therefore, it would be necessary to replace the motherboard

    That s all I can say about it having a look for second mainboard or laptop where you can get a motherboard cheap. Maybe it works. :)

  • Internal speakers Satellite C640 suddenly stopped working

    Hi friends,

    My satellite c640, internal speakers suddenly stopped working but works fine when the headphones or external sources are connected
    Is this a hardware problem?

    I m using win 7 64 bit and I tried to install the drivers but seems to be a hardware problem

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    I don't know if it is a hardware issue of m.
    You may need to check certain settings.

    In Control Panel-> sound-> the Read tab.
    You should see the speakers selected as the default device.
    You can also click these speakers to the right and you should see a few options:
    Speaker Setup
    test
    Disable
    and so on.

    Test the speaker first. In my case, a short tone is displayed. You can also mark the speaker and click the properties button. You will see a second window with tabs. Check the second tab called LEVEL. Here, you can change the sound level.

    What happen exactly when you try to reinstall the sound driver? You get errors?

  • Satellite Pro C650 - cooling fan does not work

    My Satellite Pro C650 overheats and stops automatically within 20 minutes of leaving upwards. I checked the CPU fan and noticed that it does not turn upward, even if the laptop would become very hot. I tested the fan with a 9 volt battery and it works perfectly.

    Can someone tell me exactly what the problem is? And how to solve it.

    Thank you.

    > Can someone tell me exactly what the problem is?
    On this virtual path, no one can say with certainty what the problem is. We can only speculate what may be the problem.
    Usually, cooling fan starts immediately after starting the laptop slows down and offers the optimum temperature of material. After reading your ad I didn t understand how it works. He turns and there is no sign of life?
    Problem can be power.
    Cooling fan will be controlled by sensors of temperature and activity depends on the temperature of the material but if your machine cooling fan does not work, I imagine that there is no electric power.

    What do you think?

  • Satellite NB10T-to-10F - webcam suddenly stopped working

    Hello
    I got the laptop TOSHIBA SATELLITE NB10T-A-10F
    The web cam has suddenly stopped working
    I tried
    Updated bios even without result
    Here is the picture of Device Manager

    In various cases, the webcam can be enabled and disabled in the BIOS
    This option would typically appear in the BIOS under: Advanced-> System Configuration
    Please check this box.

    Otherwise, you need to know also that the webcam driver installation isn't necessary if you use the system Win 8 or 8.1 win because such driver is already part of the system.

    If the BIOS does not have the power option webcam (Advanced-> System Configuration) I would recommend you to retrieve the computer laptop back to the factory to check settings if possible hardware malfunction would be responsible for this issue.

  • Satellite Pro L870 - Touch-pad suddenly stopped working

    Hi - the touchpad on my Satellite Pro L870 - 18G (Windows 8) has suddenly stopped working (after less than 2 months use of)-which makes the phone rather difficult to use. There is nothing wrong with the driver - according to the Device Manager, but I tried to reinstall when even (did not help).
    These things are not normally suddenly?

    Why device manager says that there is no problem when there is a very clear?

    Maybe the touchpad is disabled. Is there a any reaction when you use the FN + F5 key combination?

  • Satellite L505 - 10 X cooling fan does not work

    Dear friends, good computer Toshiba Satellite L505 - 10 X Day.My laptop cooling fan does not work. The CPU temperature is not displayed in the application of PC health Monitor. Kindly guide me to solve this problem, cordially, Siva

    Simply because the temperature is not mentioned in the Toshiba Health Monitor, it doesn't mean, that the cooling fan is not working properly.

    You can hear fan running cooling?
    The laptop is turned off unexpectedly?

    In my opinion if the cooling fan would not properly work, internal temperature should rise very quickly at a critical level... in this case that the laptop must close automatically...

    But if the device does not turn off and if you are still able to use it properly, so I doubt that there is a problem with the cooling module.

    I tried the system restore, uninstall and reinstall the camera driver, preformed a complete analysis by kaspersky internet antivirus 2012 (updated) and I also ran a complete system and drivers troubleshooting... and the problem persists...

    When I use windows live movie maker it gives me an error saying: can t record audio or video of the selected camera. Make sure that the device you are trying to use is properly installed and not currently in use by another program.

    The microphone works well on Skype, but the camera does not open!

  • Satellite L850 - webcam suddenly stopped working

    The web cam on my Satellite L850 has suddenly stopped working.

    It does not appear in Device Manager;
    I downloaded the latest driver on the Toshiba site;
    I checked the BIOS and the web cam is turned on;
    Always when I open the web cam application I get the following message:

    "webcam initialization failed Please restart request and camera control.

    I scoured the advice forum and short of a return to the top and reboot disk HARD, I find no reasonable answer. I can't back up as I am away from home is out of the question. I need web conference call cam / call my family to the United Kingdom back.

    Tired of going round in circles and getting nowhere.

    Any suggestions?

    Even if you have not changed the settings in the BIOS, you must Access the BIOS to make sure that the webcam is turned on it!

    I also recommend the suite of this workaround:
    Uninstall the webcam software
    Uninstall the VAP
    Uninstall all software needed the webcam (Skype, etc...)
    Now, restart and install CCLeaner (cleaning of freeware software)
    Reboot once more.
    Run CCleaner and clean the system and the registry.
    Reset
    Now follow with installation of VAP
    Reset
    Install the webcam software
    Reset
    Test webcam.

  • Fan has stopped working on the satellite

    I've had the laptop for jusy 7 weeks and the fan has stopped working. It always seemed that he ran too to what looks like at full speed almost constantly, but now its stopped.

    I just tried to call the helpline and ended up leaving a message to be recalled. They work on Sunday?

    How long they tend to take to fix these things?

    Hello

    I put t know 100% if they work on Sunday, but I presume that they don t
    However, can you please tell what camera do you use?

    I can t believe that if fans stopped working then the laptop should automatically stops or the CPU overheats! It is very dangerous because the laptop and the motherboard may cause damage.
    So if the fans don't turn you should not turn on the laptop.

    But maybe the cooling modules run only with the lower speed?
    This is not unusual. The BIOS and the energy-saving control the speed of the CPU and cooling modes. Fans should not run with maximum efficiency if the temperature does not increase.
