• Satellite 2450 S203 fan noise problems

  Hi guys

  I had a Sat 2450 S203 since October 2003 and have recently noticed that whenever I run memory intensive programs fan noise levels are excessive and constant!

  If someone could Advisor on the replacement of the fan and know if I should do it myself. Please also comment on the impact on costs as well. Are there other ways around to get rid of this problem?

  Hello

  After this long period, your device must be cleaned properly. I guess that dust inside the unit don't allow adequate cooling and cooling fan must often runs and faster to cool the hardware components. It is not only specific for your device, but for all laptops.

  I'm sure that after cleaning, your device can take a deep breath and will work a lot better and calmer. I noticed the same thing with my Satellite P20. After cleaning the laptop runs very quiet and cooling fan just works sometimes. I'm very happy now.

• Need to swap the CPU of a Satellite A80 154 fan

  Hey there,

  I use a Satellite A80. My CPU fan no longer works and I want to change it.
  Anyone know where I can get a guit maintenace and service for the A80 know how open and change the FAN or someone knows how to change the fan?
  Thx a lot

  Hello

  I think it would look better in your situation contact a local authorized service partner because exchanging a fan in a notebook is not like exchanging into a desktop computer.
  Just a suggestion: click on the following link:

  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/generic_content.jsp?service=EU&ID=ASP_SUPPORT

  You can call and send maybe your machine for them. Should be more advisable to give some expert to do this because you can cause serious damage to your machine when you are not familiar with these electronic components to your machine.

• On Satellite P850 - 30Q fan noise

  Hello

  I bought a Toshiba Satellite P850 - 30Q a week ago and overall, I love the machine, nice design, good performance, great speakers... BUT:

  The FAN NOISE is driving me crazy? I had a lot of laptops different in my life, but never experienced something like this. Normally I don't notice not the fan, but this laptop I noticed that the fan.

  At idle, I can hear the HARD drive - I can live with that.
  Fire use, desk and surf the internet and as the fan lights up now and then to 53% and really loud! -Its disturbing when I'm trying to study?
  When I play games the fan is 53% permanently, and after like 5-15 min, to happen to + 80%, what is really strong? -I can live with the fan when I play games, but not when I study or use it for use of the lamp in the train or the school.

  Am I the only one to go through this?

  If there is no resolution, I will return the product to the store. Its just sad when I like the rest and despite the fan Im happy on this issue.

  Hope you can help.

  > great but when I play games it rattles

  Have you noticed the usual fan noise or noise appears as something wrong with ball bearing cooling fan would be?

  It s nothing unusual as fans of cooling would turn faster everything!
  While gaming, the GPU and the CPU produce a lot of heat. This increases the temperature and therefore the propellers rotate faster. Here's how it works!

  But if the fans create an unusual sound, then that would mean that the cooling module may be defective and THIS should be verified by technicians is why would I wait not for any solution, but IF it's a hardware problem, the solution is just a replacement of parts.

• On Satellite A205-s5852 fan noise

  Hey
  I have a month old Satellite A205-s5852, the fan is sometimes very quiet and you can not hear it and at the same time, it goes to full spin, creating a noise or a couple of seconds, then it becomes quite new.
  This cycle occurs every time when the laptop is on. I was wondering if such a thing is normal.

  > fan is sometimes very quiet and you can not hear it and at the same time, it goes to full spin, creating a noise or a couple of seconds, then it becomes quite new. This cycle occurs every time when the laptop is on. I was wondering if such a thing is normal.

  Is nothing unusual because the fan starts to spin when the temperature rises to a higher level.
  The laptop with a stronger CPU, GPU, HARD drive, etc. produce more heat than other portable weaker and therefore these laptops must be cooled very often as a laptop which was equipped with a low level CPU, GPU or HARD drive

  Second heat dissipation depends on the use of the laptop. High performance software needs of more material resources and so the pieces of equipment to operate with higher performance and produce more heat.

  Finally and above all the power options settings can modify the behavior of cooling and can reduce the rotation, but generally this means that your material would reduce the performance to make sure that the heat dissipation would be less.

• Satellite L670 cpu fan noise

  As I sit in front of my new laptop L670, from the left end of the keyboard comes up and down a whirring frequent sound that I'm pretty sure is the CPU fan
  (not HD).
  What is too much? I find it disturbing. There is no sound from my old Toshiba 1 year. The room temperature is a constant 20degrees, so it is not overheating.
  And does so even when sitting idle with just the screen Windows7 IE no software activity going on at all.

  I'm worried that this is a faulty computer. It is old (for me) - 2 days, purchased new. Still able to resume.

  Grateful for any thoughts.

  Hello

  I put t know how I can you use your laptop, but for normal use I recommend to use the balanced power plan. Enter the advanced power settings for the management of the balanced diet and open Toshiba power saver.
  You will find options for cooling method.
  Set to optimized battery.

  This should reduce the activity of fan cooling.
  Please test.

• Satellite A500: update BIOS V1.50 is fan noise problem reappears

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A500 with fan noise problem.
  It has been partially resolved the upgrade of BIOS from v1.20 to v1.30, according to this thread:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=46719&start=0&TSTART=0
  

  Yesterday I updated the BIOS v1.50, and the sound of the fan returned.
  I do not recommend this upgrade if you have had the problem of fan noise.
  

  I have downgrade BIOS v1.30 and fan noise problem is solved again.
  I know that people have problems to get the downgrade to BIOS, so I describe the process in this thread:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=50577&TSTART=0

  Thanks mate for sharing this with us

  But perhaps you could use the v1.5 BIOS and could reduce or reduce the activity of module cooling in Vista/Win7 power management settings.
  It would be interesting to check it out

  In any case thank you for this info

• Satellite A80-127: the cooling fan noise is loud

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A80-127, its been 1.5 years... now. I have this fan makes a lot of noise... as if the rotor is gone. Neon else faced a similar problem? or is it normal to have this noisy turbine like noise...
  Thank you
  knockaert

  This noise appears at the beginning?
  If not then maybe it s something wrong with the cooling module, for example: ball bearing.
  It of not impossible that cooling fans working wrong maybe it must be replaced.

• Re: Satellite A200-1 t 0 - the fan noise & purchase spare fan & replacement

  Hello

  My Satellite A200-1 t 0 made noise bad uncomfortable even on cold start.
  I tried to clean up the use of household vacuum without removing cabinets, always, she improved marginally.

  What I need to replace the cooling fan?
  I looked on the internet I couldn't find out where to buy the replacement cooling fan.
  I found a link as below, but it is mentioned that for AMD processor but mine in Intel Core 2 Duo.
  http://www.Amazon.co.UK/Toshiba-Satellite-A200-1To-compatible-processors/DP/B005TTJ62U
  Not sure if it would be compatible.

  I'll be able to buy this Toshiba?

  Please kindly advice how to solve this problem of fan noise.

  Thank you

  Hello Jay

  Satellite A200 is old model of laptop, and I can imagine that the fan cooling and air conditioning grill are full of dust.
  Before changing anything your laptop must be completely disassembled and cleaned. I did this several times in the past and I must say that my books were much quieter than before. After the cooling system will work properly and laptop will be able to take a breath.

  I put t know if you know someone who can help you with this. Please don't spend your money for new parts. At a first professional portable make cleaning.

  Please send comments.

• Satellite A660-12 t / A660-1FL - which we have less fan noise?

  A couple of days, I received my brand new Toshiba A660 12 t. Everything is perfect except the noise from the fan. It is particularly strong for me that I often use the laptop in the library. For simple tasks, the fan runs between 59% and 67%. I tried different things to play with the power settings for the Bios upgrade and graphics card but nothing has changed.

  Now I want to go back and change it with the Toshiba A660-1FL. Why this one? Two laptops have the same characteristics and the same price except the graphics card and the CPU. mine comes with Nvidia 330 m and I5-430. on the other side, the A660-1FL comes with the integrated Intel GMA HD and the I5 - 460.
  I thought that maybe the graphics card is the reason!
  Does anyone know if the fan noise will be reduced if I use a less dedicated graphics card? Should I change? in this case the GMA HD is a good graphics card?
  If someone uses a Toshiba A660-1FL, could you please tell me if the fan is strong?

  I appreciate your help. Thanks in advance

  Hello

  NVidia GPU is a powerful graphics card, and especially these maps are designed for games.
  The GPU from Intel is also a good graphics chip, but it of not powerful as the nvidia chip.
  The nVidia chip would allow the current apps much smother but it creates more heat.

  This would affect the cooling fans which means that the fans would go more quickly and often.
  So, theoretically the laptop with Intel GPU should be a little more quiet.

• Satellite L650 1NC - the fan noise

  I bought the laptop in February 2011 and the fan noise deteriorated over time, now. I've read many threads in this forum and elsewhere about this problem and I think that the problems are basically the same.

  Now that I've read some that messages stating that the new BIOS, released in September have apparently solved the problem, I did a BIOS update (Version 2.3) to meet the same problem again.

  The fan stops when the temperature is below a certain threshold, in my case according to CoreTemp it seems to be at about 50-55 ° C. At the moment the fan turns off, which is also confirmed by the monitor of health indicating the 0% fan speed.
  This leads to the CPU temperature increases until the fan is used to about 55-60% fanspeed.
  This process repeats every 15-20 seconds and is very annoying.

  It gets worse, but if I start to actually do something like a request to open from the web browser - nothing serious, really, I don't want to start even complain about the noise while game/watch movies.
  The fan speed will be 70-75% as soon as the CPU gets the work to be done.
  The noise that results is unacceptable for 20-30 seconds.

  Noise is an important factor for me. At the University I can't use it as my fellow students are too distracted by its noise. To work my colleagues began to complain as well.
  As I use my cell phone while being out of my own office/home it is basically useless for me now.

  Has anyone else still issues after the recent updates to the BIOS?
  Is there a way to put the fan always runs at around 30-40%?

  All opinions are appreciated.

  Hello

  Cooling module performance depend on the internal temperature.
  If the temperature arise at a higher level, the fan must turn more quickly to prevent equipment overheating it's usual behavior.

  But you can try to change some Windows 7 power management settings.
  This will reduce the performance of the CPU and the dissipation of the heat and that should slow down the activity of the fan too.

  Here is instruction how to change the Windows 7 power management.

• Satellite A500-138 - warmer on the left side of the touchpad

  Got a Toshiba Satellite A500-138 and it get hot in the left side of the touch pad.

  Can some help me?

  Hi atmo.

  Well, I think that some some areas on the laptop are always a bit warmer than other regions. I think that it s according to the hardware parts where is the cooling module and find CPU, graphics card, and chipset.

  You have problems? She is turned off without warning?

  What you can do is try to clean the cooling system using a jet of compressed air. This can blow the dust from the cooling fans:

• Satellite A80-154: Questions on BIOS/cooling

  Dear Sir or Madam,

  I recently bought a Satellite A80 154 of the German retailer "Media Markt" for only EUR 1299,-.

  Although the general impression of the laptop is fine, I have two questions that make me think back to the seller. The questions are:

  (1) cooling system is too strong, in particular Linux, which is my main platform. However, the problem occurs on Windows, where I am able to slow down the CPU frequency (but not GPU) with an average success in terms of reduction of sound intensity.

  (2) bios of a laptop is by Phoenix and not Toshiba, which I expect to find (it's a big problem for me, since the Linux kernel for Toshiba laptops support is much better than that of Phoenix BIOS).

  Here are my questions:

  Toshiba selling different versions of the Satellite A80 154? (for example a good market with Phoenix bios and more expensive with a Toshiba bios and improved cooling). If they did, I would invest the additional EUR 300,- and buy one directly from Toshiba (if possible at all). I also ask, because I tried to update the Bios with version 1.70 - WIN (is this Toshiba BIOS?) from the BIOS download site unfortunately without success (he complains about the size of the bad bios).
  Is it possible to operate an A80-154 with BIOS Toshiba (and this would reduce the level of noise)?

  Sincerely yours.
  Martin Spindler.
  PS: Will to sell Toshiba laptops supports the new standard MXM in the near future?
  PPS: Please respond directly to the [email protected]

  Hello

  1, on the volume of the cooling system, I can only advice you the Toshiba Power Saver or 4.23 SPEEDFAN tool.

  2, which has your BIOS model depends on the series of products. If you want a Toshiba BIOS, you must choose a laptop as the M40 Satellite, Tecra M3, Tecra A4 or Tecra M4.
  You can also ask your local dealer or test it!

  Hello
  I have a Toshiba Satellite A80-121, and it won't work. Yesterday, worked all very well, but now it does not start.
  When I press the button the button normally has a blue color, then the screen stays black, no image at all, then the fan stops. Then I got a beep every 15 seconds.

  Can someone help me what is wrong?

  Thank you very much for your help

  Hello!

  It sounds like a hardware malfunction...
  If you have installed two RAM sticks try it with a single. Check it!

  I m not a technician to laptop but the problem may be with the motherboard, RAM or CPU, but this is my personal opinion.

• Satellite U400-138: how to activate Bluetooth in Ubuntu device

  I have a new Toshiba Satellite U400-138.
  This is the version of Centrino with Intel GMA4500HD graphics card and Intel 5100 a/g/n wireless.

  If I understand correctly, the Bluetooth adapter is * turned off by default * and a special * command ACPI * is required to activate it. I use the linux 2.6.27rc8 kernel and it has two drivers - * toshiba and toshiba_acpi *. These cannot be inserted into the 'No Such Device' kernel.

  The reason is probably that these drivers only work with the Toshiba BIOS. This model has a Phoenix BIOS.

  So, how can I activate the Bluetooth market adapter and stop on this model?

  Hey Buddy

  Unfortunately, Linux is not supported before you wait days here I recommend you to enjoy some Ubuntu forum and ask I think that, in the meantime, we solve problems WLAN but BT. It can be further complicated theme.

  Good luck and post your new activity. It may be interesting for other fans of Linux.
