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 P200 - need CPU fan replacement

    I have a Satellite P200-16V and my problem is on the cpu fan.

    I tried to open it, but after the keyboard, hard drive, Rams, OVOCHECK and 40-50 screws and some cables, I realized I have to get out the motherboard and screen mabe and I close it again after 3-4 hours. The cpu fan has been breaking and I don't know what to do.

    I am from Greece. If I go to the toshiba in Greece, I can find a cpu fan or any system cpu radiator? Can you help me?

    Hey Buddy,

    Looks like the fan needs to be replaced and therefore, you should contact the closest service provider authorized in your country. Guys can order a replacement part and swap it out.

    On the Toshiba site, you can find a list of them:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > find an authorized service provider

    Sorry, but everything that s what I can say. Here it s only a user forum so I think no one knows the exact number of part or a manual how to take apart the laptop but the ASP can do for you. :)

  • Instructions for AMPERAGE satellite 1905-S303 CPU fan

    Hi guys,.

    First of all thank you for your help in advance.

    My fan is this similar to a buzzing noise, but not very much. Almost as if something interferes here or something is loose.
    It can also feel vibrations final on my wrists resulting from the present.

    The computer itself works well no problems. And fan of stitching to do this work, however since his on and outside the usual tricks.
    I get the feeling, it must be emphasized in working well.

    It was that don't happen at the initial start upward and the problem would go sounds fan away quickly to normal.
    Now this noise/vibrations come all the time every time that the fan starts.

    More fan calls, more noise/vibration.

    In any case I tried to blow out with compressed air to clean it. But nothing has changed.
    That's why I want to open it up, take it out, maybe clean it or see if something is loose. Or maybe replace it.

    That's why I'm looking * instructions on how to replace the fan on my Satellite 1905-S303 CPU *.
    Does anyone know all the instructions I can follow? I couldn't find anything on the Toshiba support site.

    (Or instructions for a computer similar to mine at least?) (Or something that might help?)

    Thanks a lot guys! I really appreciate you!

    In this case, I would not recommend to disassemble the laptop just to check if the fan is ok or not
    I mean disassembly of the laptop is really a delicate procedure and there is a risk of damage to the part.

    However, the disassembly instructions are not downloadable on the Toshiba page. I didn t find anything and I think that these manuals are released for service only partners.
    But I think you might find a few details and info on the internet. Use google and search for irisvista.com/tech/

  • Satellite A300-1IE - CPU usage high with Bluetooth active

    Hello!

    I recently installed Windows 7 and the Toshiba Software Installer on my Satellite A300-1IE.

    I have a problem with the bluetoothmanager, it's more than double the CPU usage when turned on. When I close the CPU usage goes down.
    This is not normal?

    When the BT active CPU usage is 9 to 15% and when not 1-3%

    Seems to be high. Try an update of the Bluetooth stack.

  • Where to buy for my Satellite Pro P300 CPU fan?

    Hello

    I noticed some not very good sound from my cpu fan, as well as my 17 "laptop overheating.
    I decided it was time to replace the cpu - model KSB0505HA fan

    Now I wonder where I can buy a new fan for this model?
    I found a site in New Zealand, but the fan is for the P305 series, and I'm not sure if it would be compatible with my laptop.

    Could someone advise me on where I can get a new fan of cpu for this series?

    Thank you ~.

    In order to ensure:
    I'm looking for one in my country - the New Zealand!

    Added that the search for a New Zealand

    P305 is probably model proposed in US, but it must be the same as P300 in Europe or in THE so I think it should be good.

    I put t know where you can order it, but try to use Google and check if you can find a store online in AU where you can order.

    I can also imagine that you can order by the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider. Call and ask.

  • Re: Satellite A665-11Z - CPU fan becomes audible very quickly

    Hi guys,.

    After having many problems with an A660, I decided to buy a laptop A665-11Z 3D. I had much better and more stable than the A660, but I noticed that the fan noise accumulates very quickly and can be a little annoying.

    The A665-11Z has an I7-740QM processor and a Nvidia GT - 350M 1 GB dedicated graphics card so they can contribute to this, but all four cores temperature exceeds about 52 degrees (which seems normal for me) and yet its still has its fan turns up to be that sound.

    I exchanged the laptop with my retailer twice already as one had a noisy fan and the other a bad hard drive. They had all the noisy fans and the one I have now has been silent so far, but is even harder than normal. I tried to play with the settings "Advanced" options for power management and played a bit with 'High Performance' cooling options to "Battery optimized". It does not constantly on 'Battery optimized' (as it does in High Performance) but when it lights it is even stronger and it takes too long to switch off).

    Is this normal with all A665 and I just have to continue to live with it?

    Thank you

    Hello

    What to say? I use laptops now almost 10 years and have changed several models (not only the portable Toshiba) and I can say that some models have a cooling fan stronger and some are quite calm but none of them was absolutely quiet and silent.

    In General, I had good experience with method option in settings of cooling energy saving and after changing battery optimized mode, I noticed that s laptop cooling fan is much quieter than before. Unfortunately there is not much you can do about it and I'm afraid that you have to live with it.

    I put t know what kind of activities you have every day with your laptop, but if you use it for internet, office, Skype or something similar use with power with lower CPU performance management. Processor is powerful enough and you won't see lower performance than before. Make sure you also cooling fan is not blocked and the laptop can be cooled properly.
    I m afraid you must live with it.

    The thing than an end: you wrote >... I have now has been silent so far, but is even stronger than normal.
    At this point I m wondering what is normal and how is it defined?

  • Satellite Pro L10 CPU fan replacement

    Hello

    the CPU on my L10 fan has stopped working now is over heating after about 15 minutes. Anyone know what is the part number of replacement, or if there is a fan of spare for another model that I might be able to use?

    Thank you
    Martin

    Hello

    As I remember the Satellite L10 series are delivered with two different circuits and so could the unit supports a processor Intel Celeron-M CPU and Intel Mobile Pentium M.

    North Bridge is it 852GM, it supports Celeron-M as follows:
    -Intel Celeron-M (number of processor 350) 1.30 GHz
    -360 1.40 GHz
    -370 1.50 GHz

    North Bridge is it 855GME, it supports the Pentium-M as follows:
    Intel Mobile Pentium-M (number of processor 725) 1.60 GHz
    -735 1.70 GHz
    -745 1.80 GHz
    -755 2.00 GHz
    -765 2.10 GHz

    You should be very careful with the replacements! If you have no experience, you should ask the technician for help and advice.

  • Satellite P100 - 387 CPU fan works like crazy

    Hi all
    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite P100-387. I bought it with 2 friends. The same model.

    The problem exists only in 2 of the 3 laptops. It looks like this. When I start the machine everything is ok. While windows starts cpu cooler (or video card cooler if it exists) starts to work. If the fan starts to work the low speed at the highest. And did it for 5 - 10 times. Then a few minutes break and again. It's really noisy. It seems that when you insert a CD or a DVD.

    It goes like this also when windows is started. No high consumption of CPU, the fan works like crazy. Start at full speed for 2-3 seconds, then for 1 second and still the same.

    Everyone has the same 'characteristic '?
    What is this Toshiba Power Saver software works with p100-387?

    Hello

    I P100-109 close to me and I noticed the same thing. There is no difference between preinstalled WXP or Vista and because of this, I assume that this is a normal behavior. I know it's sometimes troubling, but unfortunately you have to live with it.

  • Satellite M30X-129: CPU fan runs constantly after new XP Pro re - install

    I just installed a new Samsung 120 GB drive in my M30X-129, an upgrade of the 60 GB IBM drive with what it was originally provided.

    Tried ghost XP Home installation of the old drive to the new - but it didn't work for some reason, installation, attached to a page with the "Windows XP" logo on it...

    So, I installed XP Pro with SP2 from scratch on the new drive.

    After having done that, I then installed the Toshiba and utils drivers listed for your laptop:

    NES http://UK.Computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=UK&mode=allMachi & action = search & teddProduct = 555

    The problem I have is that the fan runs at full speed all the time - this isn't the case with the old installation of XP (was rare for it to come on at all when slowed down in the office - running full bore 100% of the time)

    Research by and try a few suggestions:

    -J' installed the common Utils from Toshiba
    -J' installed the Toshieba power management - and set the fan speed to ' Silent' has ', but that doesn't seem to have any effect.

    Any suggestions? for example. where I get the latest versions of the applications?

    The noise of the fan slowly leads me to the top of the wall...

    Ben.

    Hello Ben

    If you have installed your own OS and Toshiba designed drivers, tools and utilities, I assume that this problem cannot be software. I'm really not 100% sure why the fan always runs at full speed but Satellite M30X is around 2 years and I guess it's time to clean up. The second thing can be your new HARD drive.
    It is also possible that new HARD drive produce more heat and sensors to register it and don t stop the cooling fan.

    I recommend you to professionally cleaned the unit and remove any dust inside the unit. I'm pretty sure that cooling fan does not work at all times.

    Also try to put the laptop into a slightly higher position (if possible at the back) and on this brand more interspace between the bureau and the cooling grill fan in the lower corner of your laptop.

  • CPU fan broke on Satellite A215-S7444

  • 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.

  • Satellite A500-040 - too noisy CPU fan

    My CPU fan runs too fast and too loud. The fan speed is still 73 percent. Although I have not used all the programs, the CPU fan speed is always 73%. Never speed is made once it has reached 73%. Even the CPU temperature is about 35%.
    I tried to do as a result of the actions:
    It solves not 1 updating bios/drivers-
    2 changing settings of the power plan does not solve
    3 cleaning cooling module does not solve

    Can someone help me?

    Unfortunately there is not much you can do about it. Cooling fan is controlled automatically. I put t know which options have the power that you have changed, but please try to change the option for cooling method. You can find it in the advanced power options > Toshiba power Saver saver > cooling method.
    Use the optimized battery option. This should reduce the activity of fan cooling.

  • High temperature CPU on my Satellite A300

    I got my Satellite A300-1OM for a week now and I'm happy with it. I use it mainly for MS Office and internet. When it is idle, the time CPU (verified by hardware sensors app) vary from 38 to 45 degrees. However, after a few hours of nothing but MS Office and the net (or sometimes just the net), I noticed the hot feeling of laptop and the time went up to 70 degrees, even though the CPU usage is quite low. Should I worry about this? What causes the time to go to the top? The portable little died due to overheating and I hope it lasts a while.

    EDIT: the cpu is a Core2Duo T5800. I do not use youtube and other sites heavy process.

    Thank you!

    > The last few laptops are dead due to overheating...
    Hmmm... How to understand this? I don't know how you use your A300 Satellite, but I use my for the same purposes (office work) and the laptop runs for hours. It is placed on the desktop, the ventilation openings are free and portable can catch its breath.

    Of course, I noticed also that mobile is hot on both sides of the touchpad, but it is nothing unusual, whereas there are placed disks.

    So I just hope that you use your laptop on the same path and not on the bed or your lap with blocked in the lower cooling fan.

    To be honest, these tools are OK, but you can't believe them 100%. Anyway watch carefully what happens in the future and if you think that the temperature is too high contact nearest authorized service provider and ask for help.

  • Satellite A300 - Touchpad gets too hot

    I bought a Satellite A300 last week and I noticed that when I use the computer for an hour or so the touchpad becomes very hot.
    And also the area of the left hand next to the touchpad.

    Is this normal? Is there a way to reduce it?

    Thank you

    Pedro.

    Hi Pedro,

    I put t know what what is for you hot and wasn't, but on my Toshiba Satellite laptop I've never had a problem that it too hot.

    Normally, I recommend to clean the laptop with a jet of compressed air, but I think that is not necessary because the laptop is only a week.
    Maybe the fan or the heatpipe is malfunctioning. Or the thermal grease to be renewed

    I put t know but in your case, I would go to an authorized service provider. Technicians can check your laptop and it should be free, because the laptop must be under warranty if it s a week-old.
