Satalite Pro A60 overheating and crashing

My satalite Satalite A60 Pro keeps overheating and crashing. It says something about an ati driver.

I downloaded a bios between bios-190trad of this Web site.
I burned the iso to the disk, but I can't get the laptop to boot from the disk in the read me file that comes with the bios it says to press F12 to start the laptop. F12 doesn't do anything for me. How to boot from the CD I am using Windows XP Service pack 2.

Hello

First of all if you want to boot from the CD, you must change the boot order in the BIOS. To get into the BIOS, you can press ESC and then F1.
Another possibility is the C key immediately after starting the laptop.

If the laptop overheats so I guess the fans don't work properly. In this case, you should try to clean the fans. (use the vacuum cleaner)

  • Satalite Pro A60 - issue CPU upgrade

    Thanks in advance.

    Soon Alex.

    Update CPU's official not taken in charge and you will not get a solid with the new CPU performance boost because the laptop is old enough

    But as far as I know if you have a PSA65E model, you should check the specifications of other A60 Pro of the Satellite with the PSA65E model number. If they have faster processors, it could work in your model too, but there is no guarantee, and everything happens on your own risk!

  • Overheating and crash on the A60 - 122 power management

    Sorry for the bad English - my native language is Russian.
    I have a few problems:

    #1 when I run any graphical application lasts (as any games full screen)-I get a trouble - front near the screen becomes very hot - I think it's a video card problem, because I saw this sentence only at games or use Photoshop. How can I solve this? Have Satellite A60 - 122 functions q - fan (like ASUS motherboards) and how do I access it?

    Utility power management #2 - hangs at each performance of the OS and crashes when you try to uninstall.
    What can recommend you on these issues?

    Thanks for all the answers.

    Kind regards
    Alex.

    Hello

    #1 with this number you can do anything. If it's really hot, you can call service toshiba partner and ask if it would be useful to analyze the material.

    #2 you tried to install the new management tool of power 'on' non-functional existing power management. It may be that the new installation fix the existing!

  • Satellite Pro M10 freeze and crash with some programs

    Hello

    I have a M10 Pro Satellite...
    A few weeks ago it's freeze and crash with some programs like wmpayer, messenger... I delivered to the authorized agent and they had not detected any problems.
    Already I have formatted several times, but the problem persists.

    Any idea what this may be?

    Thank you

    Hello

    For me it looks like you might have a motherboard problem. Formatting removes the chance that it is a software problem. Try taking 1 stick of RAM and test with it. If she continues to crash, remove that stick and try it. If she does it with the two RAM then those who are ok. HARD drive is not the culprit, so now he could either be processor or MB. Find a program to measure the heat from the laptop and run some heavy programs do overheat. If the temperature goes up and then it crashes, it could just be overheating. If it continues without overheating you either have a CPU or MB problem. I hope this helps.

  • Qosmio G40 - graphics card keeps overheating and crashing all at stake

    It works all the games that I put on it fine, but overheating then crashes and me kicks off the games I play m.
    Is it just because it s a laptop and it s inclined to do?

    I tried to increase the fan speed with riva tuner and precision, but no program allows me to access the utility of fan speed.
    I presume this is because it s a specific card from the laptop... I also can't find the driver for this card from nVidia updates.

    Help, please... James

    Hello!

    Are you using the Toshiba display driver? This is important because the pilot factory don t have protection against overheating and the graphics chip can be damaged.

    In addition, this could also be an overheating problem. If you need to clean your laptop with a jet of compressed air that you can buy at a local computer retailer.

    Last but not least, I would not try to change the speed of the fan or something else. This will be controlled automatically.

  • MacBook Pro running slow and crash

    Hi, I was faced with a slow MacBook Pro two years ago. It was incredible for the first year and I've been making sure to not save files too heavy on that and have only a handful of applications.

    I've just cleaned new (I checked through almost all alone on my files for what I could get rid of) and it of still slow and crashes regularly. It also takes forever to connect. I recently encrypted disc, which seems to have made it is still slower. I use it to edit video and design, but they make crash all the time. He also says that I have 250 GB in apps (that is what takes up the majority of storage), while I only did less 50 GB.

    I back upwards on the time Machine and I was wondering if I should wipe and reinstall, but I fear that the encryption could cause me to lose access to the files, and I don't know if I can simply restore my back upwards or if I should reinstall everything manually. Any advice would be welcome! Thank you

    What exactly happens when it crashes? Is there an error message?

  • Satellite Pro M10 overheating and the fan runs loud

    I have a Satellite Pro M10 and when it is the fan on the power grid comes shortly after the start and makes a horrible noise - this has only started happening recently. I tried spraying compressed air (dust) to the air outlet and still have the same problem.

    Other postings say to clean the fan, but I don't know how to access it. I'm worried about overheating problems I work in Africa much of the time and the laptop is subject to hot temperatures.

    Hi Hannah,

    The easy way to clear the dust and debris from the cooling system is to use a vacuum cleaner hose placed on the admission air grids that are usually in the bottom of the laptop (covered by a grid). For maximum effect, I usually place a rag around the pipe to maximize the flow of air through the fans.

    This causes air suction through the radiator CPU the wrong way and ensures that all debris are not pulled into the heatsink, but are removed by fans. You can see a ball of down under the grates that you need to try to clear little by little.

    This technique will not void your warranty since no disassembly of the unit is necessary.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite A60 - overheating and decommissioning

    Hello

    As "[email protected]", I have similar problems with my Satellite A60.

    After about 10 minutes of normal use on a hard, flat surface, the laptop starts to become very hot and turns off (obviously overheating). He started only when working with heavy editing workload, but is now it does all the time.

    Is this a common fault with the A60? I've had mine for a little more than 12 months and had no probems, and now all of a sudden I can barely use the thing! (of course, it's just out of warranty)

    Any suggestions would be very appreciated,

    Thank you very much

    Mike

    Hi Mike,.

    That strangely resembles the typical issue of overheating that can infest the laptop users. Laptops use a metal matrix (similar to a car radiator) cooling to dissipate heat from the CPU when using, and if the airway through the matrix of the clogging of dust and debris, then a thermal trigger will be used to turn off the power to the laptop.

    Air suction fans act like small vacuum cleaners and pull ambient air dust in the matrix where it gradually accumulates and blocks the air flow.

    Try to use a hose of vacuum cleaner against the aspiration air grills to pick the accumulated debris. I do this with my laptop on a monthly basis.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite L670-184 overheating and crashing

    Hello
    I bought this laptop a few months ago, I am very satisfied on this product, except for this: whenever I have ask complex tasks, as a recent game, the laptop go very hot, even if the ventilation system is not obstruated at all. The PC go warm, until it crash and downtime. Then it is impossible to start for another ten minutes, or the driving power remains off.

    Some simple tasks can cause overheating too: I was very surprised to see Heroes III or Google Chrome with many tabs cause the crash as Crysis 2 or Shogun 2 TW.

    How could I solve this problem without adding a few external mechanical fan? This is a caracreristic of the product, or is it an effect of manufacturing on only my laptop?

    Thanks for your help and please forgive my weak English of Scripture!

    > whenever I have ask complex tasks, as a recent game, the laptop go very hot, even if the ventilation system is not obstruated at all. The PC go warm, until it crash and downtime.

    This is because all devices like CPU or GPU running at high performance and creates a lot of heat. This is nothing unusual. But it of unusual that your laptop is overheating.
    I think that the cooling fans and grilles are obstructed by dust and cannot cool the parts properly.

    The vents should be cleaned from time to time using a jet of compressed air.
    I have to do this from time to time on my laptop to avoid these annoying cell phone problems.

  • Satellite Pro A30 overheating and decommissioning

    I found some comments dating back to March of people facing the A30 laptop random extinction. I am eperiencing the same thing.

    Thinking that it might be a virus I downloaded Norton AntiVirus which caused my laptop to blue screen. I had fixed by a professional and removed NAV. He continued to turn to then find another guy from support for PC...

    I worried overheating so he cleaned the fans. I was then able to run spyware without it if overwrite... everything seems fine (NB it is running on battery power at this point). However, this morning due to low battery, I plugged it to the adapter, the adapter, and the laptop has become extraordinarily hot and it stops!

    Someone at - he found no concrete solution to this problem yet? My laptop is only 18 months old and it has been for about 3 months. Aaaahhh!

    Hi Vicky,

    First of all, overheating of the CPU is the cause of power offs unexpected majoir where no error message or blue screens of death are displayed. There is always a very high rate of activity just before fan cooling break (unless the cooling fans do not have of course).

    If your second PC support guy has properly cleaned the CPU heatsink and fans, then we have to assume that the problem relates to low airflow through the fan grids.

    You stand your A30 on a hard flat surface? It is very easy to block the gates of fan cooling by standing the laptop on a soft surface (carpet, upholstered furniture, same pants/skirts etc.).

    Secondly, given that you had problems with Norton antivirus, you have any other software anti-virus/spyware running. If this isn't the case, it is possible that you picked up some malware that is causing excessive CPU activity which, of course, will produce much more heat from the CPU. Check your active processes in the Task Manager and also run an antispyware application appropriate (like AdAware or SpyBot) to ensure that your system is clean.

    Finally, it is quite normal that the adapter get indeed very hot when she is driving the notebook and charge the battery, especially if you are running heavy CPU or graphics applications. Similarly the battery warms up noticably while he is in charge.

    This is the latest driver from NVIDIA WHQL: http://www.nvidia.com/object/notebook-win7-winvista-64bit-260.99-whql-driver.html. HP/Compaq, offers a few very old drivers. You may need to update your DX configuration, too - have DX 11 is installed, does not say that you have all the necessary files for games running on DX 10/09/11. Download the DirectX Runtime Webinstaller tohttp://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3 and let it install possibly missing files (updated for periodic most * of .dll).

    Regardless of these recommendations, the overheating problem seems more related to a hardware and a software problem. With insufficient a bad driver or a version of DirectX, you will not be able to play your games - but how that overheats your system? (Btw, safe mode is for diagnosis and troubleshooting only. It uses a standard graphics mode that is not compatible with new games).

  • Compatibility issue on Satellite Pro A60-129 and USB 2.0 Port Replicator II

    It is: are they compatible? I bought the Port Replicator, loaded drivers and plugged.
    All the lights come on as it should on the 4 USB ports, and the device manager says its working properly. But if I plug the router in there (instead of directly into the USB port of the laptop), or if I try to plug in the mouse inside (once again, instead of directly into the laptop) or work.
    He also seems to have some effect on Windows - where when I try to stop the machine, it "hangs" in the section "Logging Off", until I physically unplug the duplicator.

    Any guidance appreciated.

  • Satellite Pro A60 - is overheating and shuts

    Hello

    I have a problem with my A60. I start and everything goes OK. I put in a temporary monitoring software because it works for awhile and then just stop. What I see happening now, is that it will heat up to 65 then the fan comes on and at 55 it stops. This can happen a few times, and then he forgets turn on the fan. After that he climbs slowly until she happens to 85 when he cuts. I bought a stand 3 fans and now it stays on as long as when it goes on the fan circuit anointed, gets it to 77-80 and stays on. The problem is if I USE then overheating and stop again.

    What control actually (and fails to start) the fan cut in the process. This part of the function of the BIOS? Updated BIOS ver 1.7 to ver 1.9 will make a difference? I'm afraid that this update will not end before overhearting and I'll be left with an unusable machine.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    >.. .a finds a way to fix it properly.
    This type of hardware components are not fixed but replaced so if you think that the cooling fan is defective exchange it.

    One more thing, the vacuum cleaner is OK, but you can't wait to clean up your laptop to look like new. I disassembled my Satellite M70 and was surprised how much dust was inside.
    Just after the withdrawal of the ventilation openings, I was able to clean it properly.
