You cannot change fan speed yourself, because there is no option in the Bios. I also tried to change with utilities like a fan speed control utility. But I couldn't stand it. Perhaps, someday they will out of the Bios with support for fan speed control. :)

    I agree with you, I also own a500-1dn and it makes big noise even while surfing Internet. This forum was suggested to update Bios to reduce the fan noise.

  • automatically change the fan speed depending on the temperature.

    I wish I could for my computer automatically adjust the fan speed depending on the temperature. I don't think he does in itself because the speed never changes.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Hello joshblacher,

    There is a sensor on your motherboard, which changes the fan speed according to the room temperature. As much as I know there is no way to do otherwise, I'm afraid.

    I want to know how to change the color temperature of the screen of my laptop? Theres no option in the ATI catalyst and no toshiba utility, where I can change this? I have the latest installed toshiba display drivers.

    Hello

    you mean the gamma settings? I don't know if the ati drivers are able to do, but you can try the program "powerstrip" (www.download.com/PowerStrip/3000-2086_4-10395724.html), which can change the color and the parameter gamma for graphics cards.

    Just give it a try and you will get your favorite color settings. :)

  • Satellite Pro 6100 - how to change the date and time in the BIOS

    Hello

    I received a satellite pro 6100 that had not been used for some time. Windows does not work then he reinstalled with the good drive.

    When I try and windows 'enable', I get the error 32777 and the laptop is unable to connect with the activation servers that a google leads to believe me that the date and time are incorrect in the bios.

    I know that Press esc to access the bios but there is no option to change the date and time in there. I put the date / the correct time in windows, but this does not seem to synchronize with the bios. I've updated to the latest version of the bios, but this is not enough.

    How can I change or update the time in the bios?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I doubt this time and date setting BIOS does affect Windows activation time Windows doesn t affect it in my opinion. There must be another reason for this problem.
    You can activate Windows by phone?

    Normally the date and time in the BIOS can change you if you mark the date or time, and then press on + or - to change this. Sometimes you have to press PageDown/to the top according to the model of BIOS or laptop.
    Usually in the configuration of the BIOS you will find a brief info how changing the values.

  • Satellite Pro U300 PSU31E - two how to adjust the fan speed

    While using the laptop the fan comes in for a few seconds and then stops again, which causes the temperature
    increase... what makes the fan?
    Throttle upward rather than stay in a slow to medium status.

    I'm running Vista Business, but I did ' t find the parameters in this regard.

    In the ACPI BIOS is not accessible, but as already posted my problem looks a bit like this:

    Re: ACPI fan on Satellite L30
    Posted the: 13-Sep-2007 22:08 reply

    The fan goes in cycles like this:
    ------------------
    Less than 50, fan
    When > 55, fan to full
    When< 55,="" fan="" on="">
    When< 50,="" fan="" off="">
    and it continues

    ------------------

    It would be much better than when he went to more than 50 years she just spend on bass, then
    It would never reach 55 and never go up.
    And the laptop would be 100 x more silent.

    Another thing: the Germany from Toshiba support page won't load at all or is the global page
    very slow, using different locations and conections. That I can not retrieve all the information to help me.
    And I do not think the University backbone or my DSL 6 Mbps at home is the problem

    Hello

    The fans begin to turn only if a certain temperature point has been reached.
    These fan table information is stored in the BIOS and cannot be changed.

    Some computers laptops satellite supports an additional option in the Toshiba HWSetup. It allows to change the CPU dynamically switchable or always low frequency mode.
    This would set the temperature to a lower level and the fans would lead occasionally.

    In any case, to my knowledge, this option is not available in the Toshiba HWSetup and not in the BIOS so I guess that it s not possible to control fan behavior.

    By the way; If you wish, you can test a tool like aSpeedFanfreeware.
    This program can control the speed of the fans according to the temperatures of the system.
    Maybe it will work on your Satellite Pro U300

    Good bye

  • Satellite M70 354: how to change the display?

    Hello!
    My TFT-Display of my Satellite M70 354 is physically broken. So I need a new. The Servicepartner costs of a new view without working time are EUR 450,-(!). It's too.

    Is a change to myself as possible, or is it very difficult? On Ebay, I found a screen, compatible with an M70... What is important in changing the display?

    Maybe you can help me.
    Thank you!

    You should know that the display is one of the parties outside the laptop computer motherboard expensive.
    The costs are huge, as you can see. Of course the 450 bugs is too but it is a new LCD and additional, you will pay for the technician.

    That is why it s a good idea to look for second hand unit. The replacement of the screen is a little tricky. You must remove the plastic frame that attaches around the screen.
    The display is usually fixed with 6 screws and connected to the Board of Directors and FL inverter.

    I think that you should not replace yourself. I see that you have no much experience on these replacements. So the best idea is to buy a second hand laptop but then to ask a technician for replacement.
