Satellite C660D - software to control the fan speed?

Just brought a C660D. Someone knows the software to control the fan speed?

My laptop CPU fan always turns to 74-80% of max speed. That's a lot of noise. I tried cpucool, but it did not work.

If does not work, the fan speed will remain at the temperature of 0 with cpu at 38 oC. But with any operation tiny, like the click of the mouse, it will change again to 74%, CPU temperature does not change.

Hi Polaralbatross,

Have you ever tried the Eco mode that uses the cooling battery optimized method?

  • Satellite A100: looking for a software to control the fan speed

    Hello

    I am looking for software of control/read on my laptop fan speed, because energy does not seem to do anything. It seems not serious if I set the 'method of cooling' to 'Battery optimized' or 'Maximum Performance' or fixed CPU processing speed. I () has installed the Module & Power Saver town a couple of times without success.

    SpeedFan & NHC will not work.

    Hello

    Sorry but I do not share your view on Power saver utility. Do you really believe that Toshiba create tool like that for nothing? Just FYI: public service power saver is not available with Vista operating system and on this forum, you will find topics where people really miss this fun and useful utility.

    In any case, it is well known that many tools that you can find on the internet do not have much influence on laptop cooling fan speed. To be honest, something like that can be very dangerous because the majority of users want to have silent notebooks and overheating problems are totally underestimated.

    Can you please be a bit more specific about your problem? Your laptop is too strong for you or is the short battery life? Why you are not satisfied with this tool?

  • Satellite P100 - 400 PSPA6A: How can I control the fan speed manually

    Good evening

    I would like to know how can I manually control the speed of the fan?
    I ask this question because my laptop rarely use the fan at a higher speed.

    Today, I listened to more than the normal fan, I have check the temperatures and the CPU was Core1:95ºC Core2:99ºC
    I'll clean the fan, but I want to know how can I manually control the fan (of course with the software: P)

    Kind regards.

    Hello

    I guess that the Toshiba Power Saver has been installed on your laptop and you use this software from Toshiba.

    If you are using Win XP and that the GST is installed, then you can check the configuration of basic settings and you might find the options to control CPU, CPU processing speed and method of cooling.

    If you are using Vista, then you should check the Vista Power Options:

  • 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

  • How can I change or control the fan speeds up my computer?

    my processor and motherboard run hot. the fan for processor speed is 20%, the other two are 30%. How to increase the fan speed to lower the temperature?

    I would not try to change the speed of the CPU fan. Clean the case out if its full of dust (if it's a desktop computer). If you can put more fans in the case, put more fans in it

  • Satellite U500 - 11G - noise of the fan speed after BIOS update

    Hello

    I have the Toshiba Satellite U500 - 11G.
    I've recently updated the BIOS because my CPU fan did not work under Ubuntu,
    But after the update, my CPU fan speed is faster then normal and make a lot of noise (even if the CPU is cool) when I use Windows 7 is still stay on fast speed making a lot of noise.

    Do we sort of degrading the BIOS or thw way to earn the slow CPU fan speed?

    Update BIOS because of Linux? You know that Linux is not possible on this laptop model?

    In any case, to reduce the fan sped Please reduce the cooling in saving settings method.

    I wish to address is it permanently on.

    Hello

    > Is it possible to adjust the speed of the fan of this laptop? As I saw in PC Health monitor the fan speed is mainly of 0%, and sometimes it amounts to 70% (on idling) and make a big enough noise

    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.

  • How can Qosmio G30-126 - I check the fan speed?

    MODEL: G30 - 126
    OS: VISTA 32-BIT SP2

    How to know the speed of the fan? I have try several programs like "sensor hw monitor" & "fan speed" but it's not watch everything think about the temperature of the CPU just fan speed.

    Where is the problem and what I need to do?

    Hmm... Why you want to know the speed of the fan?

    The fan speed will be automatically controlled and you can t change this or manually control. You can change the method of cooling between performance and battery optimized in Vista power management. Did you check that?

    In addition, you can clean the laptop using a jet of compressed air as Akuma written. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.

  • How to control the fan on Portege Z830?

    I have a Portege Z830 with BIOS version 1.7 and I am very upset by the noise of the fan.
    I was wondering if it is possible to control the fan noise, so I started to experiment with a little utility called SpeedFan. I put in place so that the fan will not turn on until the temperature of the processor exceeds a defined number. But it does not; It seems that the BIOS is ignorant these parameters.

    So my question is how can I set the fan to work my way?

    There are not many options to control the fan.

    The fan is controlled by the BIOS. The fan table that is stored in the BIOS contains information how a cooling module must operate.

    As mentioned by Liam, you can change the settings of power plant of Win 7 more battery as a way to minimize the performance of fans
    This should help a little...

    In other http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=65068 thread, I found a neat trick of the last user... He replaced Z830 fan with the fan of Z930 origin...

  • 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.
