Satellite L505-10J - cleaning of the radiator system

Hello!

My L505-10J system heat sink seems to be sprinkled at the same time, that the fan is more comparative work initially and to the exhaust air flow is barely perceptible.

My old laptop manufacturing another hat cover to access the RAM slots and fan/radiator as well... remove dust was easy enough.

L505-10 days don't have that easy access to the fan, looks like I have to open it completely.

Am I losing the warranty if I opened the laptop for the cleaning of the questions? Is there an easier way to clean?

Thank you and best regards,

daFlox

Hi daFlox,

I use Toshiba laptops for years but I never opened it to clean the radiator system. This is not necessary because you need only spray compressed air to do this. Just blow air through the BACE h of the cases where the fan is. This can blow off the dust. You can get the jet of compressed air from each dealer computer I think.

By the way: even I found this article in the section fair questions:
[http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=40 | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/forum.jspa?forumID=105]

And if you open the case, you will lose your warranty, that's right, but as I wrote it to clean your system it s is not necessary.

  • Satellite L505 - 10J W - Lan Adapter missing

    Hello

    the W-Lan-adapter to my laptop (Satellite L505-10J PSLS3E) suddenly disappeared yesterday during normal use; shortly before the Wi - Fi connection still worked. The adapter is no more displayed in the Device Manager of the first operating system (Windows 7 Professional 64 bit); the second one (Ubuntu 10.4) does not either - it's as if the laptop has simply not provided with an adapter.
    I have no idea what to do - is the broken WiFi adapter or someone knows how to solve the problem?

    Greetings,

    Hello

    The laptop really support a wireless network card!
    It must be equipped with a Wlan RTL8191SE Realtek 802.11bgn chip.

    You see some unknown devices in device-> network cards Manager?
    If Yes, then this might be a wireless network card!

    In this case, you must download the WLan driver again and should install it.
    Please download the Wlan driver from this page:

    If it does not, access to the BIOS, set it to default settings, restart the machine and try again Wlan driver!

  • Satellite A300 - how to recover the operating system without a recovery disk?

    First of all, sorry for my very bad English.

    I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300, PC 9 months ago. I had problems with a virus and result is that despite clean-up and disinfection, the computer is still infected and I refused access to the hard drives and regedit.

    I thought restoring the operating system factory preinstaled (hopefully, this is the solution and not the formatting) and Barrie told me to check out http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

    I did it, but the PC it's imposible because there is no files. I don't have a rescue CD (if newbee).

    What can I do?

    Hello

    Usually the A300 (European series) has been equipped with HARD drive recovery option which would be you allows to recover the laptop using the files on the HARD drive. But if this is not possible while something went wrong with the maybe HDD it s due to the infection by the virus

    In any case if you are not able to recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive you need the recovery disc.
    You can order it as suggested by resident on the other hand, you can use the MS Windows Vista disk and can download driver Toshiba page.

  • Satellite C660D - a problem with the cooling system has been detected

    My laptop is a * Toshiba Satellite C660D-11th * and I have a message that keeps coming up every once in a while 'alert system' head and reads as follows: "WARNING: a problem with the cooling system has been detected." (Next line) Please, turn off computer immediately and return it for service. »

    I had this warning for the coming weeks and it tolerated, but it worsened and annoyed me for the last time. I can hear the fan and the computer is not over heating (the CPUCool freeware tool detects a 51º CPU temprature C). No further questions arise as the computer slows down, it is right in the path of what I do, like typing right now.

    I tried to solve the problem by changing the "Power Options" in the control panel of Windows 7 'High Performance', and then selected under the 'battery' both 'Sector' columns, 'Never' for the parameter "put the computer to sleep. It seems to work, and no error message has occurred since then. However, this is not a solution...

    Please help quickly, this prevents me from working and even other things now.

    Usually, this message would appear if something is not wrong with the cooling system. But I read here in the forum that maybe it's a bug of software and after new system recovery this message should no longer appear.

  • Satellite P300D - 12L - Pentecost of the cooling system problems

    Wich, cooling pad is recommended for this laptop.
    I don't know what type of cooling pad I could buy.

    Can u recommend one please?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    I assume you mean on the cooling module
    Well, each piece is created specially for each series laptop
    This means that you need a cooling module that is compatible and designed for the satellite P300D.

    All compatible parts can be ordered from local ASP (certified partner).

    Therefore, there is nothing to do to get in touch with a local service point and order the necessary parts

    Notes; disassembly of the laptop is tricky not easy as with desktop PC
    That is why the cooling modules should be replaced by a professional

    > Laptop computer just turn off after a few minutes of work.
    > Then I format C with Windows XP Pro, but it turns off as before.

    I think this sentence is the key description resembles your laptop could overheat and automatically stops.
    Why is this happening? Well, the laptop could overheat temperature high inside the laptop. It will stop automatically to prevent the equipment from damage.

    My long experience, a clogged cooling fans could be responsible for the bad cooling and the temperature high.

    So what to do?  :|
    In my opinion, he must clean the fans to get rid of dust and debris.

    The jet of compressed air is very useful tool and could help you to clean the fans.

    Hope this helps to get the laptop running.

    Hello

    I put t know what games you want to play, but generally speaking, it of also depending on the game you can use screen resolutions. For example if your game supports only 2 screen resolutions, you can only use these resolutions.

    So all you can do is update the driver DirectX and display. Then, look for an update (patch) for the game.

    Good luck! :)

  • Satellite A100: How to reinstall the operating system with recovery CD?

    Hi guys,.

    My laptop (8 months) has been crashing (Windows XP) lately and I tried to use the product recovery CD but nothing happened (the laptop failed to boot from the CD, instead, she starts toward the window of connection for Windows XP Home edition). When I open the CD in windows Explorer, then I realized it was empty. Is it supposed to be empty?

    Even if the laptop came with a second CD, "Express Media Player Recovery CD", I think that's going to be for recovering pre-installed software supplied with the system.

    I guess I can contact Toshiba for another free product recovery CD (or are they supposed to be two?) my system is still under warranty.

    Please I need confirmation on this asap.

    Post edited by: [email protected]_UK

    Hello

    It's very strange, I can't believe that the Toshiba Recovery CD is empty!
    There must certainly be a ghost image.
    Very, very strange and mysterious

    The Express Media Player recovery CD retrieves only the Media Express Player but not the entire operating system!
    I also recommend to ask the ASP in your country for a replacement CD recovery.
    Perhaps you could send guys the empty recovery CD because they do not believe! ;)
