• Questions about TV Tuner Satellite A500/040

  Hi all

  I'm new to the Tuner of TV analog digital hybrid and I'm sorry if my questions seem as stupid.

  I have two questions about the of digital TV Tuner analog integrated hybrid in the Notebook Toshiba Satellite A500/040. My understanding is that the TV tuner hybrid integrated able to decode TV signals high definition and their display on TV via its HDMI port. I wonder if I could watch TV shows on your laptop without connecting to a TV. If so, is the software needed? There are several USB TV tuners for desktops and laptops on the market, A500 hybrid TV tuner works differently these USB TV tuners?

  Thank you

  > I think I know that the TV tuner hybrid integrated able to decode TV signals high definition and their display on TV via its HDMI port.

  N ° this s tv tuner not a HD!
  It s a digital tuner that provides digital video signal 576i and not 1080i.

  Of course, you can use the HDMI port to connect the laptop to the LCD HDMI port but you will not get the quality video full HD as blueray for example.

  I found this Australian page from Toshiba:
  http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/products/notebooks/satellite/A500/psam3a-04000e

  You will find this passage short text:
  + With tuner TV built-in, you can even watch analog or digital TV everywhere where you travel, while the HDMI ports make connecting high definition on your TV screen and sound system. +

  You can also watch TV on mobile phones display! It's a key reason why the TV tuner built in ;)

• Satellite A500-1E4 (PSAR9E) - noisy fan stops is never (BIOS version 1.60)

  Hello from the Czech Republic, I have also problem with noisy fan on my new Satellite A500-1E4 (PSAR9E) (i430M, GT330M) on 64-bit Windows 7 over Office Standard - see http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=46719&start=165&tstart=0.

  Today I have updated the bios to 1.60 (from 1.20) and there has been no change. When the laptop powered to the top of the adapter in all modes the fan is running at 60-70% (sometimes at 90% - my office is perhaps quieter :-(). What laptop power battery in normal fashion fan and high performance race to 60-70% (loud sound) and in the economy mode to 80% (very noisy). It's crazy that in economic mode produce more noise than mode high performance. The CPU temperature is cca. 37-43 C, GPU 48-57. Fans of course never stops and all it's standart office. No intensive work or games. I can't imagine in games.

  Can someone help me please, I'm really helpless. Or this fixes only bios 1.30 and next version not?

  Hey Buddy,

  I think that it of really difficult to say why this happens, but in my opinion you should provide more details about your operating system and drivers.
  Are you running the Toshiba factory settings or you have installed another OS?
  Fan sometimes high activity is due to a different display driver. Have you installed the latest display driver form Toshiba (NOT nvidia)?

  Old BIOS versions, you can get an authorized service provider

• Satellite 2410-404: screen is lost and the noisy CPU fan

  Hello

  first: sorry for my bad English.

  Now: I have several problems with my laptop:
  1. the monitor/screen is lost and does not stand up, so when I want to work with my laptop, I need to address something against the monitor, so it does not fall on the side. All the solutions to this?

  2. my Cpu fan is really strong and I have already opened the case and cleaned, but every day the noise comes back (assumed that his doesn't turn not very well and communicating with once in a while a part of the computer) and I have to reopen and touch several times until it works normally.

  3. Furthermore, I lost my CD of Windows Recovery (OEM Version). Do I have to buy a new one if I want resettled windows?

  Thanks for any help

  Hello

  1. I guess the lid can not stay in the right position, because the hinges are a little loose.

  2. it looks like something wrong with the rotation of the fan. In such cases the easiest way is to change the fan.

  3. you can buy the CD recovery form the Toshiba service partner in your country. It s not very expensive.
  But you can also install the original Windows operating system on your laptop and then you can install the drivers of Toshiba and utilities. All Toshiba stuff, you'll be able to download from the Tosh driver page.

• Satellite P750 - after update BIOS CPU fan runs faster

  Hi all

  On my Satellite P750 (PSAY3A - 02L 001)

  Since I've updated my BIOS to version 2.40, I noticed that the CPU fan runs much faster then normal.

  Even more, when I go in options inside BIOS configuration, saving it comes up with "an invalid entry.

  Has anyone experienced this problem? Know a way to solve this problem?

  In General, old BIOS is not available when one is offered on Toshiba new download page.
  If you have older version of BIOS try to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. They have access to the database of Toshiba and can get the ld for you version.

  By the way: have you tried to change the power settings for the cooling method and less upgraded?
  This should reduce the activity of fan cooling.

• Too loudly CPU fan speed

  Two days ago, the CPU fan runs too fast and VERY strong.  I removed the fan and blew dust on the cooling fins.  When I removed the heatsink and found no dust behind it does not solve the problem. Put all back together and it works still very strong.  There was also a type of sealant between the processor and the heat sink.  I don't know what it was and what I should use it.  I don't know if the gasket would make a difference.  I have a Pavillion e9250t running Windows 7.  Would appreciate any help.  I am semi qualified but don't have any diagnostic tools and of course I cannot simply order a part on a basis of trial and error.  I tried to see if I could get a new HP fan, but he is listed as available only from dealer.  I don't know what that means I bought the HP device so there is essentially no dealer.  HELP please.

  Hi, John:

  Yes, there are probably either something in your operating system, put such a load on your processor is it the cause of overheating, or the CPU temperature sensor has gone bad and he is sending false information to the fan to spin to the top.

  ... Or, it is possible that the motherboard has developed a problem too.

  Go to your tools system and watch the resource monitor and check activity on the use of the processor and memory usage. You will see a list of processes and how many resources they use.

  The material only easy thing you can try is to clear the CMOS and hope that, somehow, which resets the material.

  Here is how to do this.

  I always unplug the PC and press the power button to drain any residual power from the system first Board.

  Clear the CMOS settings

• Satellite A500 is too hot

  Hello

  I got what I call a sort of problem.
  For awhile now, my laptop (A500 - 14L) become sometimes too hot and turns off automatically. I discovered that it was specifically the left side of the computer (I guess, display driver) which was raging upwards and can sometimes get to use the computer for a long time if I put only halfway on a table (left side on anything...)

  Today, I tried to buy a cooler (logitech) and tried to play starcraft 2... Well, I can simply! .... Cooler is not enough, and, according to a software that I just downloaded, GPU quickly rises to more than 100 ° C and 230 ° F. It's too hot I guess, but I don't know what to do? What more that a cooler could buy? Is - this usual? My GPU is an Ati Radeon 4650
  I thank very you much for any help. As you may have guessed, it's pretty frustrating...

  How much time do you have your Satellite A500?
  I can imagine cooling grill is full of dust and maybe the laptop needs to be cleaned.

  You can use some additional coolers, but if the cooling rack is blocked by dust it help at all.

• Desktop HPE-210y noisy CPU fan

  I bought my house in 2009.  In recent months, there was a buzz in the chassis.  I thought it was a hard drive failed, so I replaced it, but the noise continued.  In fact, it's the CPU fan.  I cleaned the dust off everything inside, including under the fan heatsink.  The noise continues.  Should I replace it?  It seems to be fixed on the heat underneath sink.  If I do not need to replace it, how to find the right part? When I enter my serial number in the search of part of HP, it lists 30 components. It is said the cooling fan system is 5188-3722 and says that it can be ordered from HP.  It also lists the "heatsink for AMD", 575691-001. It then lists on the fan itself, the STROKE part number.  In another search using a BOM component, I see "Cooler STROKE AMD 125W PCB AVCFAN", Assembly p/n 466715-001.  What exactly should I order? Once I find, I can replace it myself or I have to find someone to do it?  (I replaced the memory and hard drives). Thank you.

  Hello @kjd_1,

  Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

  I understand that you are looking to replace your radiator and fan system on your desktop HP Pavilion Elite HPE-210y PC. The heat sink is the heatsink and fan assembled between them then (5188-3722) system fan is the fan on the rear part of the housing. According to the noise is coming from will depend on who you are replacing. The system fan is NOT the fan on the heatsink.

  I do not think that you should really have a problem replacing the heat sink, just make sure you clean and replace the thermal grease while you're there.

  I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

• Satellite A500-025 - high and loud fan with some vibrations

  MY new Toshiba has its fan cooling at the top with a vibration when I turn on the computer first.
  After about a minute the fan speed goes down as does the noise and vibration of the fan.

  Y at - it a bios upgrade or adjustment on the A500-025 to prevent this?
  It almost looks like when you first turn it on, the fan setting is high then then adjusts.

  Thank you.

  > Y at - it a bios upgrade or adjustment on the A500-025 to prevent this?
  > It seems that when you first turn it on, the fan setting is high then then adjusts.

  This happens in my portable fans too and as much as I know there is nothing unusual
  This does not happen always, but each time when the laptop fell very long and if the temperature is higher

  I think that fans run faster for a few seconds to release the dirt among the cooling modules and calibrate the speed once again
  I wouldn't be worried is this fan behaviour maintained only for a few seconds

• Satellite C660 - Constant high speed CPU fan and a high utilization of the processor

  I have the Toshiba Satellite C660-F235. A few days ago, my machine was suddenly ok, fan constantly runs fastly each time and cpu use at least 50%. If I want to run some programs that require high cpu consumption, that the system is turned off automatically.

  I installed the latest version of the BIOS and all drivers and installed the new windows 7... Please help me

  Hello

  I think some sort of background process CPU stress.
  You can check this in the task-> processes tab Manager
  Click the CPU column to get the ordered process and to show all processes that emphasize the CPU.

  Closing or disabling of these processes can reduce the performance of the processor.

• Satellite A500-1GL: 2 questions: the fan speed & graphic card driver failures

  Hello

  I have 2 questions, hopefully someone can help me with that.

  * The first question - quick fan *.

  I'm on online gamer second life and world of the craft of war) recently my fan speed crank up to 90 percent for about 5/10 minutes before leaving quiet. Then speed up again after a period of time. I'm confused as to why he did this because when I check my cpu temp is only make 40%, and I use a cool buffer table.

  I'm looking for some advise here because all said Toshiba was making sure I had the latest bios update. But I would have thought it is not the processor overheating the fan must not be crank that quickly. My laptop is only 2 months old.

  Can anyone help, should I be worried?

  * Second question - graphics driver *.

  Also on a couple of times I got my screen briefly go black and then recover. A pop up appears saying something along the lines of the core of the graphics card.... Driver recovered. It flashes if fast, that I never see the entire message. Don't you think that something is wrong with the graphics card? (card nividia geforce gt300m)

  I really hope that someone can offer more help that Toshiba has done, as I am a bit unhappy to be problems on a 2 month old laptop.

  Thank you for reading and I look forward to any Advisor.

  The cooling fan is controlled by the fan table in the BIOS. Fan table contains information about the temperature and the fan speed that means the depands on some level temperature fan speed.
  Over all the possible game features as the CPU, GPU, produce heat and the heat dissipation is high
  Cooling modules would begin to turn faster if the temperature level would be exceeded
  This is nothing exceptional everything at stake

  I read on a similar question, and apparently, the graphics card DRIVER crashed during games
  Maybe it's a compatibility problem between game and pilot
  In most cases the graphics card driver update should fix this and I read on some forums that it has helped in many cases

• VAIO T Series - much too loud CPU fan

  I just got 13 inches T of sony.com

  It's fantastic. I really like this lappy... except for the noise of the fan.

  On a very light workload, fan made a noise too strong...

  It not blowing really hot air. It blows just cool air and lappy made more heated at all. It's actually very cool.

  I have absolutely no idea why the fans are blowing like that...

  Bridge of Ivy processor low voltage (i5-3317u) are supposed to be very energy efficient.

  Please solve this problem of fan speed, otherwise, I'll return this lappy fantastic in a few weeks.

• Satellite A10 S203: the CPU fan does not work properly?

  I have toshiba satellite a10 s203 and the cpu fan does not work correctly. What can I do about it?

  Hi SACRIFICE them.

  Here are some possible solutions to this problem of fan.

  1. When you have installed a base installation of MS (not the Toshiba Recovery CD) you need to install the Toshiba Power Saver and others utilities from the CD tools & utilities. The energy saver is responsible for the control of the fan.

  2. If you have a recovery based OS, you can update the energy saver of http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com site Web Toshiba under Support & Downloads - Download Driver

  If please check this and an answer then follow the next step!
