Satellite A300 - 1-3 - question on CPU Fan

I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 - 1 3, recently I had problems with my laptop in which the laptop suddenly stops working, when I checked the forum, I was advised to clean the cooling system, which I did and all is now ok; recently, I noticed that CPU fan stops momentarily, then back to work, is this correct?

If this is not the case, what should I do, should I replace the CPU fan? Or what?

As far as I know CPU fun is running automatically and it will run when this is necessary so that the fan behavior is nothing unusual.

If your laptop works well and, after cleaning, you didn t notice any more close I think that everything is OK.

    To be clear: the upgrades of RAM and HARD drive are supported.
    Update CPU is not supported due to several reasons. Check the lease - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    You must understand that the hardware update on mobile machinery is quite limited due to the special construction and cooling system. I put t know to what kind of operations, you use your laptop, but my A300 works perfectly with Win7 32 bit and has enough power for daily activity and all multimedia operations.

  • Satellite A300-Y00 black screen but the fan from

    I bought a TOSHIBA satellite A300/Y00 in June 2008 – 16 months. Model number PSAGOA-02Y. After ten months he did not start suddenly. It sounds like the processor and the fan starts but the screen and the led underneath the screen was all black. I tried to connect it to an external monitor, but the screen was too black. I gave her to Toshiba for 2 weeks (!) who said it was the motherboard. They replaced for free that it was still under warranty.

    A few weeks ago the same thing happened again. I turned off it and for some reason at random, he started as usual a few hours later. I called Toshiba to say that, in my view, that computer will crash soon again. They said that they will be able to take it in for service, but if they could not find anything wrong with it that they would charge me $ x. I don't give him service. I even went to a local Toshiba support guy who said that he couldn't find anything wrong with my computer and that there nothing that could do.

    Now the same thing is happening again. This time I can't do it again. Of course their fantastic 3 months for the last motherboard warranty has expired. I tried to take out the battery and start it only to the power, but it does not help.

    I don't want to pay $500 for a new motherboard, and then drop it again. It is obvious that it is a hardware problem and I think that Toshiba should replace my computer free of charge.

    Anyone with similar problems? Any advice? Get pretty annoyed...

    Hello!

    Have you ever contacted again authorized service provider? If this is not the case, do please! You should talk about it again with technicians and then you will see what they can do for you.

    I can understand that it is irritated, but these things can happen and I think that the ASP will be best for you help you. To be honest, I have good experience with my ASP. The repair goes very fast and the technicians are very friendly and knowledgeable. It of always nice to talk a bit with them.

    I m not a technician, but maybe they can fix it as a gesture of good will or if you only have to pay the motherboard and not Exchange

  • Satellite L30 - 10Y - upgrade successful but CPU fan is running

    Hi ppl,
    This post is more than a FYI post.

    I gave myself a defective Aspire 5610 and decided to whip the CPU out of it and put it in my Toshiba Satellite L30 and it works! CPU of the Satellite is a series of Intel Celeron M @ 1.87 Ghz, while the Acer processor is an Intel T2300 Centrino Duo 1.66 GHz. So my Satellite is now slightly faster, but added to it's 2 GB of RAM and a hard drive upgraded to 320 GB under Windows 7 Ultimate. While its still not a game machine, it creaks all the numbers that I throw at it!
    Hope this helps someone.

    I noticed that the fan runs almost constantly, suggestions?

    Concerning
    Markkyboy

    Hey,.

    Thanks for this very interesting article! It of Nice to hear this new CPU works fine, but I have to say there is no guarantee for this, but you have chance ;)
    Update CPU's official not taken in charge, but in some cases, it may work, depending on the motherboard, BIOS and CPU.

    In any case, I think the fan runs almost constantly because the newer and more powerful CPU producing much more heat and it must be cooled cooling system that is designed for your older CPU.
    All you can do is to clean the cooling system, but I think you have already done this during the exchange of CPU and use of grease thermal correct amount.

  • Satellite A300-1QD - two questions during the installation of windows XP or Vista

    Nice day
    Here's my problem:

    1. I just bought the Toshiba Satellite A300-1QD and since there is Vista based on it and I have Vista ultimate, I decided to install on the laptop.
    After I formatted deleated everything and I have the partition that I created a new.
    After that I installed Vista, now I'm at the point where it says complete installation and the blow bar is at about 2/3.
    My problem now is that it's now been 3 hours and nothing happens the dots next to the 'installation complete' is still occurring and disappearing.

    2 as the number one lasted so long I decided to install windows XP Professional, but when it loads after that I put the cd one has bluscreen place called chkdsk.

    What should I do now to get something on what works?

    Hello. I think that the partition table and boot loader are messed up and it's your problem. You can try to chek to find errors and format your HARD disk with a third parity tool and try to install windows again.

    Hi all...

    I have this laptop (link): [Satallite A300 - 1 G 5 | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 1055589]
    I have a few questions reclassification utilities exist:

    1. the webcam utility, is there a way to disable the sidebar and comes to live with his system tray?

    2 bar Notification Toshiba, can I get rid of this? It shows no notification, but the icon still there, I don't know why and its bothers me.

    3. What does the TRORDCLauncher of TRDCReminder &? that means these installed the software (on the Add/Remove Windows)?

    4. I do not use DVD player, DiscCreator and Ulead from Toshiba, I have better alternatives, that I can uninstall them and pressed at the time where I need? How?

    OK, hope that questions me are clear... have a GOOD little question here...

    Hello

    I'll try to provide answers. If all goes well it will help you. ;)

    1 No. as far as I know that's not possible, but if you don't need this application just go to exit and stop it running in the background. You can start it again whenever you want.
    2. you can turn off this notification in RUN > MSCONFIG > Startup tab. I don't know how is the right name, but you'll find it here. Just remove the check mark in front of it and it will never start.
    3. new notebook models are supplied without recovery DVD and you must go alone. Toshiba has created little reminder and this reminder should say that you please do not forget to create the recovery DVD. So please do use "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator. This support of installations, you can use for the installation of Vista more far. I recommend you to use only DVD-R media. TRORDCLauncher's Recovery Disc Creator Launcher. When the recovery DVD is created, you can delete the system applications.
    4. Yes you can remove the system. How? Control Panel > programs and features > there is the list of all software pre-installed. Click the application that you want to remove and click on the option uninstall.

    You can download some third party applications such as the speed of the fan. Please note that cetter part applications are not tested and all the news you see here doesn't have to be 100% good.

    Please do not download driver updates using Microsoft Update option.

  • Satellite P100-160 - bike trouble power CPU fan

    Read various forums and many people mentioned problems with the fan in a P100 from complete for 1-2 seconds, then jump again and cycling cela every 15-20 seconds.
    Its very irritating. I completely disassembled my P100-160 snatch all the dust and carefully cleaned. However there.

    Someone at - he found the solution to this or are they just a bag of bolts?

    In my mind its either a faulty heat sensor or the fan pick up false information.
    I have a new fan on his way, but if that does not solve it then I think that I could get rid. Little damage.

    Curiously, if I run Prime95 and max on carrots 100% fan does not it. You can hear it on all the time but its very quiet and are actually quite bearable, but I can't run at 100% all the time.

    Its a shame there is no application that can replace the fan control so you can assign a constant speed. I tried Speedfan, but that does not identify the speed of the fan on the Board temp just the CPU.

    Try it please change the method level. This option, you can find in Toshiba Power Saver utility.
    Set the method for the management of the power you use to the minimum level of cooling.

  • Satellite Pro L650 - high speed of CPU fan

    Hello everyone

    I have a Satelite L650 computer laptop that worked fine until I updated the BIOS to version 1.90 a few days ago. Now the problem is in the title.

    (1) the fan runs at full speed all the time, no matter what I do, even when nothing works.
    (2) if I switch to power and suspend mode back the laptop, the fan does not work and I get a message in 10 seconds:

    .../\
    .. / ! ------Attention: a problem with the cooling system has been detected.
    . /------- Please, immediately turn off the computer and return it for service.

    And of course, I must stop the laptop and restart it to get the fan turns (whitch would speed max immediately).
    I cleaned up the laptop from dust as much as possible, to make sure there is no dust on a sensor, but I can't do a lot outside. I used a 'fan '.
    I did not open the laptop to check and clean all the possible dust because I think it would break my warranty policy (not sure about this).

    I came across a few posts with people having this problem:
    - either with a new laptop
    -or after the update of the BIOS.

    According to me, this looks like a problem with this version of BIOS 1.90. I think that there is no way taken in charge by Toshiba to downgrade the BIOS with a lower version. I know that Toshiba Tec can do, but I have no idea what hard/software they use. Are there information on this problem and/or a possible new version of the BIOS? Like many people, if not all, I consider the PRO series as business computers - which can be used in a professional manner and have to shut up.

    Thanks for your comments.

    Mirak

    This cool s, Mirak! Thanks for sharing this information with us.

    I can confirm what you wrote: clean the fan using a jet of compressed air may help reduce the activity of fan for laptop is much quieter. :)

  • Can satellite A300-1MT - I put the CPU?

    I was wondering, can I upgrade my T3200 2 x 2, 00GHz, 1 MB 667FSB with another, which has more cache and maybe higher frequency?

    TNX

    A lot of people want to upgrade his CPU but to be honest, that's not very useful.
    A newer or faster CPU costs a lot of money, and maybe it will not work. Also, Toshiba does not support the CPU upgrade.

  • Satellite A300-1DB CPU Fan is boring, too strong

    Hi all

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite A300-1DB today in a German (580 euros) and I really like the design of laptops and performance, but there is a big problem I can not bear more (and I used it only for 2 hours).

    The CPU fan on the left side of the laptop is annoyning Yes: even if I keep the laptop idle (CPU activity is very low, just under 10% and 1 GB of ram used), the CPU fan is really really strong spinning for a minute.

    After that there is silence, a great silence... for 2 minutes. And then the whole process starts over and over again. Just cold air comes out.

    It's make me crazy, that the CPU in the idle mode fan is stronger than my other Satellite A210 - 106 Turion X 2-52 L with full activity of the CPU. I wish to have a CPU fan that keeps spinning in a low sound.

    Do you have ideas about how to control the fan?
    Otherwise I try to replace it with another laptop (I hope they allow that, unfortunately, it is not an Internet shop where you can send it back up to 14 days)

    Kind regards
    Dieter

    I managed it successfully using balanced power management and using battery optimized for cooling method option. This setting you will find, under advanced power settings > Toshiba Power Saver utility.

  • Satellite A300 - CPU & GPU upgrade questions

    Hello everyone!

    I have a satellite A300-1 to 9 (Intel Core 2 Duo T8300, Ati 3650, lcd WXGA 1280 * 800, 2 discs hard etc.) running Windows XP + SP3 + utility Toshiba etc...

    These are my questions...

    (1) can I upgrade the CPU Core 2 Duo P8400?
    (I know that T8300 and P8400 use the same socket)

    (2) can I put my screen WXGA (1280 x 800) with a WXGA + (1400 * 900) or WSXGA + (1680 * 1050)?
    How will this affect the battery consumption?

    (3) having the computer plugged (a/c power), when I close the lid, the computer goes into sleep mode.
    When I open the lid, the computer wakes.
    Unfortunately, the computer is running on battery power is not the case... I opened the lid and nothing happens,
    I have to press the power button for pc to wake up...

    can I fix?

    Thanks in advance...

    Satellite A300's newest model of laptop and I wonder how you feel about this hardware upgrade after so little time to use.
    In General, these upgrades are probably possible, but certainly not supported by Toshiba.
    In other way such radical update as a poster of upgrade is absolutely not logical for me. You probably know how expensive these parts are.

    In my opinion, should you sold your laptop and buy new with exact material you like to have.

    What about the last question? Please check all settings in the control panel and make sure that you have chosen the right option when the notebook is on battery or plugged in.

  • Re: Satellite A300 - fan does not work after installing Win7

    Hello.

    I did a new install of Win 7 pro 64-bit, and after it does not my fan, not at the start or in Windows. To check if it the fan itself was broken I re-installed Vista instead and the fan worked again!
    Installed new Win 7 but now it's silent :( I checked in the BIOS (latest version 1.80) but I couldn't find any option here. Am I missing a driver or something?

    My Satellite canned extinguishing because of this, so I would really appreciate help :)

    Hmmmm... really strange. I use Win7 32 bit on my Satellite A300-1LI and it works perfectly.
    Maybe a stupid question now, but have you tried to use the 32 bit version?

    You have also installed all the Toshiba drivers Toshiba value added package (includes the Toshiba power saver tool)?

  • Satellite Pro L40 PSL4BE starts no - HDD + CPU fan is not

    Hello

    I own a Satellite Pro L40 - 17F (PSL4BE-00R005EN).
    I've been running the system on the current for a while now.
    I decided to remove the battery to avoid damage.
    Last night, I accidentally pulled the addapter at the back of the laptop. Since then; the machine won't start.

    I noticed that the HARD drive was not making the usual noises. Then I realized was not the CPU fan is spinning.
    Nothing appears on the screen, not even the start menu.

    The only things that do not seem to work are the DVD player & power light!
    I had the back of the machine off; I didn't see any obvious reason for the problem.

    I'm looking for a second opinion on what is happening with it, and if it can be fixed without having to buy a new motherboard.

    Thank you. Dan.

    Hmm. possibly, there is nothing wrong with your motherboard.
    Try this common workaround that has helped me in such cases.

    Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter. Leave the laptop for about 30 min and after this short break, put the battery in the laptop and connects to the AC adapter.

    This short procedure helped me to sort a similar g and strange question.

    I hope that you will succeed if you please post some results.
