Satellite L500-1XL - high CPU usage all the time

Hi all

I've owned the L500-1XL for over a year now and I recently encountered a new problem: for the last few weeks, the laptop everything can become very, very slowly. Everything I do, the laptop freezes and may stop responding for a few minutes at a time. Regardless of the application I see is to do so in the process manager, stop it, but then another application steals all CPU - this isn't a particular application...

-I'm crazy about security and make quick analyses and complete analyses frequently, including spyware and rootkits scans startup
-I update drivers all the time, but have already re-installed all the drivers that came with the laptop and no change.
-J' recently added more RAM and a new hard drive internal, but this problem existed before the new facilities
-J' tried SP1 installation integrated in a Windows 7 disc and installed, and I noticed the problem of CPU for the first time then. If after that when I put in new hard drive I used the Windows Installer disc which is come with the laptop instead and in no time the problem comes back.
-J' have uninstall the applications that I don't use and there is not a lot of new applications on my laptop that I am not familiar
-J' tried it a bit on the internet and it is a very common problem, but I still don't know what to do

This happened to someone? Someone at - it ideas? I would be very grateful, it starts to drive crazy me! My laptop is not my laptop when it wastes my time...!

Hmm hard to say what's wrong here
In the Task Manager, you can check the process that locks the CPU and use the whole performance of the CPU.
You can google for this .exe to know what software or application uses this process.

Theoretically, it could also be a virus

  • My Satellite A100 GPU fan works 100% all the time

    First: I have the Satellite A100-440 with GeForce Go 7300 and XP Professional (and Ubuntu).

    There is something wrong with thermal control. The first PC Wizard has always shown that the temperature of my GPU is "a very large number" and the fan is runnign 100% all the time (the main problem). Then I installed ATItool hoping he would show the temperature correctly. Well, it worked in part. Now when I check the temperature with PC Wizard, it indicates the temperature of the GPU normally (like 30-40 degrees celsius), but it also shows the GPU Diode temperature it's "a very large number" (as 4.294967E + 09 C) and the fan will operate at 100%.

    I tried to control fans with RivaTuner, but nothing happens.

    So if anyone has an idea how I could continue to solve the problem, I would be very grateful. I don't know if the problem is with the hardware (I could take this service) or with the software...

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Why are you talking about 'problem' and 'solve this problem?
    I see no problem!
    First of all I'm not all 3rd party applications that monitor temperatures. I'm not 100% sure if these applications provide a good values.

    However, as far as I know the laptop was shipped with Vista and not XP and Linux. You do not use a factory settings. It seems that you have set up the laptop with new applications and you should know that all the software installed and running insists on the CPU and other parts.

    BIOS fan table supports different temperature and cooling of the speed measurements. This means that if the temperature rises to a higher level, the cooling module starts and tries to decreases the internal temperature.

    Usually the temperature depends on the use of the laptop. If several processes of the OS are running in the background, that the CPU performance are high, the temperature rises and the fans start to run. There is nothing unusual about it.

    Furthermore, the dust and debris inside the laptop might have a bad influence on the laptop cooling. From time to time, it is advisable to clean the cooling modules.

    Last but not least the laptop must be placed free on table to ensure the circulation of air correctly. Don't forget that there is enough free space around the laptop.

    Finally, I must say that one of my friends has an A100 and the fans run correctly.
    This means that the cooling modules works with maximum performance while playing games or using graphics software.
    However fans do not work with maximum performance using only common programs like IE software or office.

  • Why Lightroom keeps using 30% of CPU power all the time?

    Hi all

    I'm relatively new to LIghtRoom.

    I started working on a new series of photos (400 app.). I opened it to the new directory.

    Since then, all the time I'm working on theses images Lightroom guard using about 30% of the time processor.

    More all the time, I spent on these photos is estimated at over 30 hours, then (Yes, I'm slow and open each one in Photoshop while Lightroom is still open). So I guess that Lightroom has completed all rendering, they wish to do.

    My question is why and what she maintains the calculation and is there a way to stop it?

    The system configuration:

    Single core Intel Pentium 4 CPU, 3.6 GHz (Hyper Threading allowed)

    2 GB OF RAM

    Graphics based NVidia 6600 (256 MB)

    2.3 LightRoom and PhotoShop CS4 are open

    Please help - the system is slow anyway. He can really use these additional CPU power.

    Utzly

    Check your preferences and make sure that the option to write metadata are automatically disabled.

    With your set to the top, I would not go PS and LR simultaneously for a long time.

    Select all the photos and made them LR average Previews might help a bit. Make sure that the task is completed before doing anything else.

  • Satellite T130-10T: high CPU usage for no apparent reason

    I have a brand new satellite T130.
    Unboxing conversion, I noticed that the CPU usage is most of the time very high, even if it has nothing (no application does not work).

    Sometimes it hits 100% and rest there for a few minutes.
    I installed the most recent BIOST I could find on the Toshiba site, but nothing changes.

    Any ideas?

    Hi mate

    There are many applications that run in the background.
    Most of them is installed by Toshiba and these tools control the features of the laptop as keys FN, multi, eco button command buttons, etc.

    You can see the ruing applications in the Task Manager. There you can also see what background process requires the use of the CPU.

    I bought a U500 - PSU9BE 10 days ago, comes with Windows 7 Home Premium.

    10 days everything was fine.
    Without changing any settings, today the fan has full throttle, as usual he is sitting on my desk with plenty of ventilation around it...
    After awhile, I opened the tool PC to see health + 90% of the activity of the fan and only 27% of the CPU temperature.
    It off for 2 hours. Is returned and turned on. He took over fan full speed immediately at startup.
    It feels like a thermal conductor who does not switch the fan to the bottom switch.

    Looked at Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel settings - all together on the optimization of the battery.
    The Eco mode is activated.

    What the hell happens on this machine? Al support will be more than welcome!

    Hi mate

    Have you checked the parameters of module cooling in power management Windows 7-> Toshiba power saver.

    Here, you can change the method of CPU cooling for maximum performance CPU, or better battery life with reduced CPU performance. If the CPU fan noise seems too strong, a setting that maximizes the battery life will also cause the CPU fan turn on less frequently.

  • Satellite L655-1EM - why LED flashes all the time?

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite L655-1EM this afternoon and since I have had on a light keeps flashing.

    It's next to a short fat cylinder.
    Any help would be appreciated, I have everything turned off and it still flashed!
    My old laptop did not do that.

    The LED is really bright so it is very sensitive, and it flashes even in hibernation mode.

    Hello

    First of all, I would recommend consulted the user manual in order to know what LED is.
    I guess you mean HDD LED and this led continues to blink if data could be read or written to the HARD disk

    It's not unusual companion

  • On my Satellite P100-347 cooling fan runs all the time

    Hello

    I think I might have a problem with the fan on my Satellite P100-347. He seems to be constantly works constantly and is much stronger than when I bought the computer. Initially he just spent and if so, I think that this could now be wrong.
    Help, please.

    Hi Beata

    I agree with the suggestions of Sanremo; He s I don't known how old your laptop has but from time to time it of necessary to clean the cooling fans. Dust and debris inside the laptop could prevent the cooling modules work properly!
    The fresh air flow is also very important. Don't forget that there is enough free space around the laptop. Do not use the laptop on the lap or in the bed. In this case the laptop cannot be cooled in the right way and the high temperature can damage parts such as GPU to the Board of Directors.

    But if you think that there is a serious hardware problem you must contact the service provider authorized in your country.

    Good luck and greetings to Poland ;)

    I have a Satellite L500-1XL, when I turn it on the fan and lights and the hard drive light blinks several times then nothing, he's not going to the Toshiba screen remains black screen, tried ext monitor but still nothing.

    The fan always runs very quietly and the hard drive is running in, I put the hard drive in an another L500 and it is very good and can be accessed without problem, it has only 1 stick of 2 GB of RAM DDR3 and the other L500 I is DDR2 so I can't try to change the RAM. If I remove the ram should it beep or does only desktop computers do this? Mine does nothing when it is removed.

    Any help would be very useful, thank you!

  • High CPU usage by "System outages" and missing keystrokes in IE on all new HP laptop 15-r085nd

    I recently bought a HP15-r085nd (Win 8.1 with Bing), and right out of the box, I encountered this problem:

    After the awakening of the mode (usually after the first time to wake from sleep mode, but always after the second time), the process "System outages" has high utilization of the processor, up to 45%. The laptop then responds very, very slow. In addition, in Internet Explorer (but only in Internet Explorer, it seems!) strikes are missing out.

    I tried the following:

    -Implementation of all the updates of Windows, all McAfee updates and all of the updates from HP Assistent. No results.

    -Reinstall all the drivers, no results. Windows system restore: no result. Factory reset the recovery partition: no result. Then implemented all the updates again: no result.

    -J' tried to use Microsoft Xperf to diagnose the problem: it seems wdf0100.sys to blame for the high CPU usage. (In other words, if I have interpreted the results in the right way).

    -J' then did some troubleshooting with Microsoft Support: they asked me to disable all startup items in the Task Manager and disable all non-Microsoft services in msconfig. The result was that the high CPU usage of "System interrupts" occurred less frequently after the first time out of the way 'sleep', but still she always had after the second time to wake off mode 'sleep'. Uninstallation of McAfee seems to have the same effect, by the way.

    -J' then did some troubleshooting with the store were I bought it. They used a pilot program to install newer versions of the drivers. Also, in vain.

    Then they gave me another laptop of the same model (r085nd). It had exactly the same problems. So I think that all laptops of this model have the same problem! Does anyone know of a similar case with a laptop similar?

    -J' then did some troubleshooting with HP support. We have updated the BIOS (F.24), without result. We have made a few updates to additional drivers on the HP site, no results. We wanted to update the graphic driver Intel HD (sp65598), but we couldn't install it, an error message saying: minimum system requirements were not satisfied.

    I hope that the HP support can arrive at a solution (they wanted to deepen this). If so, I'll promise to post it here, because it affects probably other r085nd HP as well.

    In the mean time, I'd appreciate any suggestions, because I'm totally confused now. Someone at - it ideas? I will answer all the answers!

    I was contacted by HP Support again. After a new series of updates which included some updates everything new on the site of HP is solved the problem with high CPU usage by "system outages"!

    We have done several updates, so I know not that exactly solved the problem, but it is those:

    -New firmware BIOS: version F.33 (my bet would be that is the one that solves the problem)

    -New Intel chipset driver: 1.20 (sp69575.exe)

    -New driver Intel HD Graphics: 1.20 (sp69589.exe): 10.18.10.3958 (this one tried earlier, without solving the problem)

    -New driver Realtek card reader: 1.20Ap3 (sp69610.exe)

    I hope this helps other people with the same problem.

    Thanks to the HP Support team for their help with this problem!

    Moreover, the problem of lack of strikes in Internet Explorer (more use of CPU (any reason), the sequences of keys more are not registered!) still exists! I work around this problem by using Google Chrome. Again, I hope that this issue might get resolved as well! I nevertheless marks it as "Resolved" as the main problem is resolved.

  • Satellite L500-1XL - new hardware upgrades

    Hi all
    I have the Toshiba Satellite L500-1XL and recently bought a new 500 GB internal HD and the upgrade went well. However, the internal transfer speeds aren't that fast. He is often out on 18mps level. Why? Affects of that? Use of the RAM, the use of the disk, the free storage space? The HD came with the laptop was 5400 with 8 MB, but my new is 7200 RPM with 16 MB with 11 seconds of access time. If that should not be much faster?

    Also, how can we get the support of USB 3.0? Only through new hardware? I know it goes into Windows 8 as this means there could be a few Windows 7 supports or who is still dependent on material?

    What are the most effective upgrade options to make my laptop run faster? He was modest. When I got it, but now use it for any need so get. Thus, upgrading to HD 160 GB to 500 GB (5400-7200), but it's unique processor with only 2 GB of RAM. I noticed on the Toshiba page so it says on a 64 bit system with 4 GB of RAM, the chart may use up to 1 800 MB of RAM upgrade RAM (not expensive) and then the processor? Even a single dual core would do the job? No need for a costly i3 and perhaps not compatible with the motherboard.

    Thank you!

    Hey Buddy,

    And what was your old HDD? HARD disk speed depends on different factors. You copy a large number of small files and a large single file?
    It s also useful to defragment the HARD drive from time to time. This can improve the speed. Also keep the system clean and use a registry cleaner like CCleaner that cleans up your registry.

    USB3.0 is a different interface. This new operating system wouldn t help you because it s material new feature/upgrade.

    Other improvements regarding: CPU and graphics card is not supported as you can read here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/FAQ35006D000RR01.htm

    Your laptop has Intel GL40 chipset and the maximum RAM capacity is 4 GB. So you can install 2 GB DDR2-667 module in each memory location.

  • Qosmio F60 - alert constantly high CPU usage

    Hello

    About 12 months ago, I bought a Toshiba Qosmio F60 computer laptop 6 GB.

    When exploring using games, facebook etc, I am constantly alert of my Norton informing that there is high CPU usage.

    I have asked around locally and advised to delete Norton because this may be the problem. I'm not eager to do what my subscription is still valid.

    I also learned the other day that this is a common problem with laptops Toshiba using 'Explorer' and that I should use "Mozilla Firefox" instead which would correct the problem.

    I am trying to arrange this.

    Can you please indicate if it is a regular problem with Toshiba laptops and reviewing the options above to try to address this problem.

    It doesn't really seem to my computer, it goes more slowly and when in the Manager tasks, it is constantly fluctuating between 5 and 35%
