Satellite Pro A40 keeps telling me that there is a cooling problem

Hello

Can someone help me please?
I have a Satellite Pro A40, it keeps telling me there is a cooling problem and told me to turn off immediately?

What should I do to stop this?

Hello

What type of program mean you? I've never heard of this then maybe you can post a screenshot or

But maybe your laptop is really overheating or clean you already? If this is not the case, to do it with the jet of compressed air. Blow gently and shortly the depression of the air holes of the case of the machine where the hollow air flows. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.
I clean my Toshiba notebooks with jet of air compressed every 3 months and I never had a problem with it.

That's all I can say at the moment.

  • Disconnected radio on map Wifi mini-PCI in Satellite Pro A40.

    I installed a card Atheros Wifi Mini-PCI (marked Toshiba, model AR5004G) in my Satellite Pro A40. Pilots of the section of downloads on the A40 Toshiba support site installed fine, and everything seemed to work. But the card could not find my wifi network at home (I rigged the antennas to test, before taking the trouble to install in laptop).

    Atheros client reported that the radio has been turned off and gave the solution like him allowing the use of the customer. But the enable and disable options are grayed out outside in the client. I took a peek in the bios of the A40 (latest version 1.50) and there is no option to turn on the radio. The FN + F8 key on the keyboard (which has a small icon of wifi on him) has also not made any difference.

    To check that it wasn't the card, I have two-way autour cards from my other laptop. The new PCI card has worked well in the Acer while the former, one of the Acer is also off in Satellite Pro.

    Does anyone have an idea on how to get the Sat Pro to switch on the map?

    Hello

    I checked the specifications Satellite Pro A40 and it seems that the WLan functionality is not available on this laptop.
    Is - this laptop has a WLan switch on/off switch on the side of the laptop?

    If this isn't the case, you cannot activate the antenna and so you cannot receive any signal!
    It seems that you must use an external USB WiFi key.

  • Satellite Pro A40 guard stop with the ATI driver error message

    My girls having some problems with her laptop and get back to Uni at the end of week for me to have a look on.

    Basically, he keeps closing sometimes with an ATI graphics driver error message. I had updated the memory last Christmas and resinstalled from scratch.

    My first impressions are it is overheating and I probably need to clean the fan, was wondering if anyone had any ideas?

    Thank you very much
    Keith (South end)

    Satellite Pro A40 is about 3 years old and it is possible that the unit needs to be cleaned. If the appliance is used intensively, I assume that there is more dust inside. By overheating of the appliance stops suddenly without any warning.

    As a first step the device. I don't know if it's the right idea to do it alone, but if you are familiar with laptops, you can give a try. After having done that, your daughter should carefully watch what happens the next few days.

  • Replace the drive DVD/CD-RW on my Satellite Pro A40

    Hello

    Does anyone know if a Toshiba DVD/CD-RW drive with model number SD-R2412 will be compatible with my Satellite Pro A40? If not, anyone know where I could find? Some muggins broke the CD drive on my laptop by bumping the case off a cargo cover. As a result, I can't claim on the warranty... statement of accidental damage... bah. :-(

    A friend of mine, think the new drive can need CSEL or M/S setting... What is it exactly and I need for an A40 Pro Sat? The laptop model number is PSA45E - 0184H - EN

    Thank you!!

    Hello

    Sorry, but I can't tell you which model will fit your laptop because there is not a public document on this subject. I know that your drive is set up and if the warranty is still valid you should not o alone because you can lose your warranty. I also found information that your device may also use a DVD-R, - RW drive. These types of information have all authorized partners. Try to contact them. I'm sure they can give you correct information on this subject.

  • Satellite Pro A40 fell on the wireless network card; Damaged PCMCIA slot

    This morning my Satellite Pro A40 (Celeron 2.6) fell 40 cm. He fell right on the wireless network card that has been inserted. This card is still alive and so is the rest of the laptop, but the PCMCIA location is little damaged. I can insert PC cards almost completely, just the last piece (when the pins are) wrong.

    I removed the cover near the CPU, and there, I could see the inside PCMCIA slot; I could see the main part and the last part where the pins are. That little part as is pushed upward, as you can see in the pictures.

    I think I'd be able to fix myself this PCMCIA slot, but I can't remove it. I removed all the screws on the rear plate, but he is still blocked.

    Pics:

    PCMCIA slot

    The PCMCIA location; on the left, you will see the part with the pins, which is pushed upward. It's also what I see when I look at the pins in the PCMCIA slot. as they are pushed down, but I don't think they are folded.

    Wireless network card

    Wireless network card; It is a little damaged but it still works.

    Does anyone have an idea how I can remove the back plate, or another way to remove the PCMCIA slot and fix it?

    Hi Steve

    Well, I can give t well you not answer how you can just remove the PCMCIA slot.
    There are a lot of screws and to my knowledge, it is necessary to remove all covers and screws that are placed at the bottom of the unit and inside under the keyboard.
    Please check this specific device. Perhaps you have overlooked a few screws.

    But if it is impossible to remove the PCMCIA slot of the unit, I recommend to ask the service partner for a detailed instruction.

    Good luck

  • You are looking for an internal DVD drive for a Satellite Pro A40

    Hello

    I'm looking for an internal DVD burner for a model Satellite Pro A40 2.88 Celeron with a currently installed CD-RW/DVD-Rom. My mother is the owner of this laptop and I want to upgrade the drive for her.

    Does anyone here know of any number of model of the DVD-RW/CD-RW/DVD-Rom that is compatible with this model.

    I want the drive to function as a DVD-Rom/CD-RW also because I do not want to lose these features. Swap the bezel above if necessary isn't a problem for me.

    Thank you

    Hello
    For this particular model, I could not find another A40 Pro which has a DVD - RW, only DVD ROM. I also suggest to buy an external DVD - RW writer because an internal hard drive will cost much more. Probably triple what external there. External, you can find for about 50 but internal will cost at least about 90 more taxes. I'm sure it is internal that correspond to this machine, but at the moment I don't have the time to research each compatible model search of the car, it's why I suggest an external drive. I hope this helps.

  • Satellite Pro A40 works now painfully slow

    Hi all, I have a satellite pro a40 which has served me well for a long time here.

    Although it runs painfully slow, now all the programs, including the internet despite my speed of 4 MB.

    I have zone alarm that made regular virus and spyware scans, I tried to defrag and disk clean up but not of the above solve the problem long term.

    Short of ideas, if anyone out there can suggest a remedy? Thank you.

    Hi Urbansafari,

    There are a few things you can try to improve the speed of your A40 - I guess you're talking about the speed (or lack thereof!) to which your laptop seems to be tasks such as opening new windows, programs etc.?

    The first thing to do is to look at the list of all programs start; Uninstall anything you don't need really or use is a good way of clutches back disk space (Windows uses hard disk as 'virtual memory' space to supplement the RAM mounted inside).

    The next thing to do is look at what programs are started in the background when you start Windows. To do this, click Start, then run and type msconfig. In the window that opens, click on the start right tab and you will see a drop-down list of all the programs that start with Windows. Without recognition program names, it may be best to leave them because they can be processes required by Windows. Uncheck all the programs you want to start automatically the next time you turn on the computer. When you are done, click on save and you will be prompted to restart the A40 for the changes to take effect.

    It is perhaps that a new installation of Windows is needed to delete all the temporary files and the old registry entries that have accumulated to over time, in which case backup all your data before running the recovery disc.

    One last thing to consider is the weather you may qualify for an upgrade memory HDD largest capacity, which are both reasonably good solutions worked for a slow running computer.

    Let us know if this is useful and how you...

  • Satellite Pro A40 PSA45E - can be upgraded with BT module?

    I have the PSA45E-001YM-OF and write about if there is an internal space for a bluetooth device.

    The support site says that there is an updated driver for this machine which suggests there is a bluetooth device existing or that one can be authorized only by this machine.

    Requested orientation.

    Hello

    I found an info that the Satellite Pro A40 doesn t support the BT module and is therefore cannot be upgraded also with the internal module.

    What you can do is to use an external USB BT stick

  • Need drivers XP for Satellite Pro A40

    Just do a fresh install of XP on a Satellite Pro A40 of second hand. Various onboard devices are not known (of in XP Device Manager) and I can't go through the process of "Install new hardware" that I don't have the drivers. The devices are mainly the Multimedia Sound Audio Card and the PCI Modem. I don't know what manufacturer made these, as XP ID device as unknown Manager.

    Anyone have any ideas or tips on how I can get the sound and PCI modem to work?

    (I'm not using the laptop for this message, even if it has access to the Internet).

    Thank you

    Looking for XP drivers?

    You can find all the XP drivers on the European driver Toshiba page!

    For the multimedia and Audio sound card, you need to install the audio driver and Modem PCI-> modem driver.

    You will find everything on the page of the driver.

    But note that buddy, there are also a few QFE Ms. This is usual Microsoft patches and fixes that are necessary and essential for the installation of the driver.

    Also check the Microsoft Windows XP SP2 update information. Sometimes the only drivers or utilities must be updated after the installation of service packs for MS!
