Satellite L500 - stop and a fan problem

Hello.

A few months my Toshiba Satellite L500-1 stops frequently due to overheating, which occurs when the intensive use of the laptop (for games, photomanipulation etc..). However, I don't know what I can do about it. I won't open my laptop, unless I am told to open my laptop computer to perform a specific task.

Today, my cell phone off again. However, when I turn back I noticed that something happened with my fan. At this point, my laptop doesn't overheat not quickly as usual. Instead of 90 + % fanspeed there around 58-60% (depending on the Toshiba PC Health Monitor). However, I noticed that something happened with my fan. After that I noticed that the fan will sometimes be a trigger, that sounds once every 10 minutes when the laptop is under heavy use.

What should I do now? It worries me, I'd be worried about it? Perhaps another user from Toshiba with a similar problem can give me support. I'd be happy.

Thank you.

Hello

On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what may be the problem.
When you use your laptop do you use desktop space?
Do you use it with power supply?

What power profile do you use when laptop stops?
Have you tried changing the settings of food or something else?

Before you start using it intensively have you tried to terminate background processes, disconnect the devices, just to see if that will help?

  • Satellite L500 becomes too hot - fan starts at boot only!

    My Satellite L500 overheats and stops without warning. I first thought that the fan is defect because it won't start unter SP2 of Vista, but when I reboot it works then on BIOS level.

    But as soon as Vista takes over during initialization the fan stops. I tried Speedfan but it is somehow not able to start the fan. he reads only the different temperatures, the fan speed.

    I don't know, but maybe this problem occurred after I've upgraded to Vista SP 2 two months ago who was not released by Toshiba. It seems that this will happen by Toshiba more but that's another question.

    The laptop is almost 2 years and come with Vista SP1.
    The only thing on the side of software is always upgrading the BIOS, there seems to be a newer version of May 2011.

    I cleaned the intake with a vacuum cleaner, but the main problem is probably not dust, but the fan does not start. Someone an idea how I can start? Can be a software or a setting somewhere in Windows?

    Are you talking about Vista Service Pack 2?
    Service Packs for Windows operating systems are released by Microsoft and not the laptop manufacturers. ;) Release of the laptop manufacturers only the drivers own for portable devices unique ;)

    > The only thing on the side of software is always upgrading the BIOS, there seems to be a newer version of May 2011.
    So you would update of the BIOS?
    If not try this

    What the installation of Win 7? Have you checked if the fans would be running using Win 7 on this laptop? I think it's a test

    > I've been using Toshiba, but they say that this laptop does not support Linux, is - it true?

    Well, saying Toshiba does not support Linux its meaning only there is no Linux drivers or tools on the page of the Toshiba driver.

    You can install Linux, but the point is that you have to use it without any special Toshiba Linux driver

    Hi willy,.

    As far as I know the Satellite L500-1 and belongs to the PSLJTE series and so you can find all the drivers on the Toshiba page:

    I checked this and it seems that your model is compatible XP. You can download all the drivers for XP. :)

  • Re: Satellite L500 - stop all the time

    I have a Satellite L500 and I did a re image at the factory on the parameters of the box. When the image is complete and it starts to set up drivers, it stops, the screen was still the backlight but nothing else, I try to wake up and nothing happens. I held down the power button to stop and when I turn it back on the screen stays black and nothing happens.

    Once when I got it to work, I started windows normally and there was a message saying that the pilot had a problem. If someone has experienced this problem and if so how is it fixed?

    Sometimes if I remove the battery and then replace it, it will come down normally, but stops shortly after. I do not think that it is an overheating problem because it will stay there and work well, everything in the re image is done.

    Any ideas short of flush down the toilet.

    See you soon

    Hey Buddy,

    This happens in the BIOS too? I mean you should access the BIOS and leave it for a while. What is going on?

    It could also be a problem due to a higher internal temperature. If you must clean your laptop using the jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans.

    In the worst case there s a hardware malfunction, and you need assistance to professional people. They can diagnose the problem and repair it under warranty.

  • Satellite A210 - heating and BIOS update problem

    My aunt was having problems with his A210, so she bought herself a new and gave me the old one. The problems that she has been seen was the computer kept stopping at random. I think it's an overheating problem because the laptop runs quite hot. The BIOS has never been updated so I thought that might help with this problem. in any case, when I tried to update the BIOS this error message came.

    Cannot load the C:\Users\Dan\Desktop\MK10AWF\PHLASHNT driver. SYS.
    Please verify that your accounts, if you have no administrator privileges, please sign in again!
    Access is denied.
    Error code: 5

    I am the only user on the computer so I have administrator privileges and I don't know why this error is coming. Help, please. Thank you

    > Has anyone else experienced problems with the A210 of overheating? All solutions?
    Hi mate

    I m a Satellite A210 owner and to be honest, a higher internal temperature might occur if the laptop would not get enough air to cool the internal parts like CPU and GPU.
    A few weeks ago, I used the laptop on the sofa I don't the opinion of t that the cooling that are placed at the bottom of the unit fans were clogged because of my position relax, if you know what I mean ;)

    After a short period of use, the laptop shut down automatically I was a little surprised, but I realized that air could not circulate, and so the laptop overheated

    Now, I m using the unit only on the desktop. This method is recommended, and it helps to keep the temperature at the lower level

    PS: My BIOS is updated...

  • Satellite L500 - flicker and black screen turns green

    Toshiba Satellite L500-screen color problem; White and black green turn turn pink. When the laptop is turned on after a while, the screen back to normal, but just for a second. Then he turns his back to the Green and Pink for black and white color again. The display also flashes.

    Anyone, please help me.

    Hello

    Theoretically the two parties may be affected: Notebok display or graphic card itself.

    Way simpler to check that connects to an external monitor. If the external monitor is ok, the graphics card is affected. Otherwise, the screen of the laptop must be exchanged.

    Is your laptop still under warranty?

    Hello

    The computer really closes or is that only a reboot? The latter I think that everything is ok with your laptop. If you use the Toshiba recovery disc, the computer starts quite often until the installation is complete, this could happen 10 times.

    If your laptop really stops immediately, I think that it s a hardware malfunction and you should contact the nearest authorized service provider. In my view, that the technicians can help you! :)

  • Satellite L750, stopping and flashing orange indicators

    Hello
    Sometimes my l750 stop automatically (like if I removed the AC adapter) and power light and battery indicator two begin visualized in amber but still white Indicator DC IN and that while the battery is not connected to my pc
    I saw this case once when the battery is connected and the AC adapter also, the same indicators blink and DC IN still white but the system still works and the pc doesn't stop. and when I shut down the operating system, only power light continues to blink at the slow pace.

    Note: since a long time, I have a problem in the AC adapter cable, and I have to plug it in a way for the cable won't move or try not to touch or move the cable do not cut the power source. I think it is jailbroken at some point within the cable.

    Thank you

    Looks like a hardware problem, maybe mainboard or cable DC.
    An FSL can fix.

    According to specification for laptop, your laptop computer has Realtek RTL8191SE minimap 802.11bgn and using the n standard, you should be able to achieve data transfer very good speed and I don t think that replacing a WLAN card is necessary.

    Have you checked all the WLAN settings and tested the WLAN functionality with your new FritzBox 7390?
