Satellite A135-S4666 - cooling fan turns on and turns off every 20 seconds

Hello

I'm from the Argentina... I just bought a new Satellite A135-S4666 and I noticed that the cooling fan turns on and turns off every 20 seconds.
It is a little annoying and it disctracts me of what I'm doing... is there a solution?

Thank you very much.

Hi Martin,

This behavior is perfectly normal and nothing to worry about. If you find the noise irritating cooling fans you are likely to change their behavior by using the utility of Toshiba power where you should be able to set the cooling mode to run more quietly. I think trhe default is to allow the CPU to run at full speed, which will, of course, the fans turn every few seconds, but by reducing the speed of the CPU, the heat produced will be lower and therefore the fans will run less often.

Kind regards

  • 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.

    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 1800-514-display is off every few seconds

    Yesterday, I have a Toshiba Satellite S1800-514. I have install the OS (Windows XP Home) again.
    Laptop screen turns off every few seconds. When I press the small button above the power switch (sensor for portable fence) there is a beep and the screen wakes up again.
    Same procedure again after a few seconds (5-50 sec).

    Is there someone who can explain what happened and how to fix this?
    The problem exists in all modes (Setup/bios dialogue, BACK, starting of WinXP, running current WinXP command prompt).

    Thank you!

    Hello!

    It's not easy to say what is causing the problem, it could be the inverter FL, chip graphic, LCD display...

    In your case, you should first test an external monitor. If the external monitor doesn't work properly, it s a problem with the graphics chip or motherboard. If the monitor does not work this is a problem of the FL inverter or LCD.

  • Satellite L755-11j - cooling fan seems to have stopped working

    Hello

    I have the model Satellite L755-11j and I'm really happy with it, strong, fast and reliable, I have only one problem: my cooling fan seems to have stopped working.

    I don't know if it's a hardware or software (BIOS is set to dynamic switch, and in the power management is set to 'Active') delivers, because I come from Croatia, diagnostic PC is incredibly overpriced here and I can replace the fan on my own.

    I want to just make sure I don't buy new cooling fan and my problem persists. Install speedfan and Toshiba PC health monitor only confirmed what I suspected, my laptop gets hot.

    I bought the external cooling fan to help keep the temperature of my laptop down, but with the coming of the summer that I really want to solve this problem.

    To be honest, it is not easy to help you with this. Is that cooling fan works automatically and there is not a special option where you can control. Only thing you can change is the cooling method option that you can find in the advanced power options > Toshiba power saver.

    Check it please what option is set to on. Of course on this virtual path, it is not easy to tell if the cooling fan is defective or not.
    It works or not? Can you notice hot air flow when you put your hand on the cooling grill placed on the left side of your laptop?

  • Qosmio G20 - left cooling fan turns noise at startup

    After installing the BIOS ver 1.3, when the laptop computer powers until the cooling fan left running so strong, I thought it might burn or smoke.
    After windows has completely turn on the fan turns off after about 5 minutes.

    If I restart the pc, the fan is operating normally.
    Has anyone else had this problem, can I might get their hands on the older version of BIOS?
    It is pulling my hair.

    Hello Anderson

    Sorry, but your ad is a bit confusing to me.

    > If I restart the pc, the fan is operating normally.
    Restart or normally power is almost the same. Updates means you have noticed this fan cooling problem once right after the BIOS?

    Please watch carefully what happens the next few days. If the behavior of cooling is always strange I recommend you contact the service.
    In the end, one thing is strange. Qosmio G20 isn't the newest model and this version of BIOS is not either yesterday, but you are the first person who has noticed this.

  • On my Satellite P100-347 cooling fan runs all the time

    Hello

    I think I might have a problem with the fan on my Satellite P100-347. He seems to be constantly works constantly and is much stronger than when I bought the computer. Initially he just spent and if so, I think that this could now be wrong.
    Help, please.

    Hi Beata

    I agree with the suggestions of Sanremo; He s I don't known how old your laptop has but from time to time it of necessary to clean the cooling fans. Dust and debris inside the laptop could prevent the cooling modules work properly!
    The fresh air flow is also very important. Don't forget that there is enough free space around the laptop. Do not use the laptop on the lap or in the bed. In this case the laptop cannot be cooled in the right way and the high temperature can damage parts such as GPU to the Board of Directors.

    But if you think that there is a serious hardware problem you must contact the service provider authorized in your country.

    Good luck and greetings to Poland ;)

    Somehow my new Apple TV 4 causes my Panasonic Plasma TV turns off every 30 to 60 minutes. I thought for sure I had capacitor problems with my TV (he is about five years old) but my wife suggested to check our new ATV4 because the problem started just after Christmas when we got the new ATV4 and the problem occurs with our ATV3.

If accidentally, I forgot to unplug my ATV4 after using my TV stops every 30 to 60 minutes after my ATV4 is connected and not in use. I'm at a complete loss as to what is causing this problem.

    ATV turns off after a certain period of time in the settings: http://help.apple.com/appletv/#/atvb7a7550e3

    The ATV also has the ability to control the power of the TV via the HDMI cable, if the value.

    I will try to put the ATV to sleep immediately after use, as explained above and see if the TV turns off then.

    If so, go into the settings, remote controls and disable control of your home with remote control entertainment system and see if only he stops.

    When the TV turns off, it is on the entry of Apple TV and the screen saver or you look at another entrance, for example, a cable?

  • System does not boot up... message is... "" peripheral USB on the detected... current situation system turns off after 15 seconds.

    I recently bought a new golf gps device and connected to my desktop pc to register. After unplug his computer m USB cable I can't start my computer.

    whenever I start it the pc his usual routine, but then I saw the following message... USB device to the system detected. System turns off after 15 seconds.l

    Fifteen seconds after the system shuts down. It wiil also not afford to start or access the safe mode, the program installation or any other type of recovery mode, I could access normally. It will also not recognize my Win XP installation disc. I guess it's because of the configuration of the BIOS which accesses the hard drive before the CD rom drive.

    The problem was obviously created by the golf gps USB cable but I can't find a way to get the system to boot so I can find a way to eliminate the problem.

    Thanks for any help that anyone can provide. I am running WinXP Sp3

    Hi PAULARUNNELS,

    ·         What happens when you try to start in the Advanced startup options?

    ·         You receive the same error?

    ·         You external devices connected now?

    Try the following.

    Method 1: Disconnect external devices not essential, connected to the computer and restart the computer.

    Method 2: Load default BIOS (Basic Input\Output System) settings, and then restart the computer. Make sure that you have the CD drive set as first boot device. Check the settings by consulting the manual or call the manufacturer to do so.

    Note: Be careful when you change the BIOS settings. The BIOS interface is designed for advanced users, and it is possible to change a setting that can prevent your computer from starting properly.

    Method 3: If you are unable to start on one of the advanced startup options, and then you can follow this article.

  • Satellite U500-10F - Dungeon fan turning ON and OFF all the time

    Hello world

    Just bought my u500-10F and installed Windows 7 Enterprise on this.

    Having a very weird problem, the fan keep turn on/off all the time every 10 seconds or more, even without any CPU load. Any ideas? Is there a fan control software?

    Rgds,
    Arley

    As you know that Win7 is not released and without support, there is therefore no Toshiba Software for any type of power control and the fan at the moment.

    Have you noticed the same behavior of fan preinstalled Vista operating system?

  • 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 1905-S303 - fan turns on every 2 minutes

    Hey guys, thanks for your help in advance.

    I just noticed that my laptop fan lights quite often.

    I have a Satellite 1905-S303.

    How many times you ask? -The fan runs about every 2 minutes, and then it stays on for about 1 minute. (So the cycle takes about 3 minutes). Things continue to go all the time, even if the computer does nothing.

    Other than that, the seams fine computer. The computer does NOT turn off overheating.

    Is this normal?

    I just noticed this and can't remember if it has always done this. (Although I don't think)

    PS - I tried dusting the gills of the computer with compressed air, but nothing has changed.

    Other than that, the seams of the computer to function very well.

    Thank you guys!

    > I just noticed that my laptop fan lights quite often.
    I don t think it would be a bad thing
    The point is that the fan lead on if a certain level of temperature has been reached.
    This is nothing unusual.

    I have the same problem, but I can control my Toshiba Power Saver cooling modules so I can set the parameters of battery optimized in order to reduce the speed of the fan.

    Maybe you could do that too.

  • Satellite M60-162 cooling fan

    Dear users of Toshiba,
    is it normal that my Satellite M60-162 new cooling fan is often turned on and off with the normal energy profile selected in the toolbar State Windows XP?
    Sometimes I want to turn off my Satellite only because I'm confused on the noise generated by the cooling fan!

    Kind regards.

    Hi Fabrice,.

    Yes, it is quite normal that your fan to kick in all few minutes (my A30 will systematically even if only displays the desktop).

    Toshiba power settings usually have a 'silent' option which helps to reduce the volume of fan activities (by slowing down the speed of the CPU) that can help, but it is still likely that the fan lights from time to time.

    Excessive activity and the fan noise is a common problem that is often discussed in this forum and is probably the result of trying to put as much of hardware and software in such a small case.

    Kind regards

  • Equium A110 cooling fan coming ON and OFF very often

  • Satellite L650-1GF - cooling fan runs every 3 minutes

    Last week, I bought a Satellite L650-1GF. Everything is fine except the noise from the cooling fan. Especially because it works almost every minute to cool the carrots. There is an annoying sound hum which takes about 10 seconds and is repeated every 3 minutes approximately.

    I checked with "Speedfan". The temperature of the hearts is fluctuating between 32 and 37 C. And at about 37 ° C, the fan speed to cool the computer.

    Two questions:
    1 is this normal that the cooling fan starts cooling to 37 ° c.
    2. is the annoying noise of the fan normal for this model of Toshiba?

    And what is acceptable, can I find examples to compare with what I feel here somewhere? I saw a lot of cell phones so far, but none of the cooling fans made a buzzing sound like this.
