Satellite R20 Tablet - noisy fan, battery runs out quickly

I observed a problem on my Tablet R20 - no matter how I play with management control of power the fan is always on and almost always in quite high speed. Even if I set the power management profile in long service life of the fan turns down, but for the moment I start doing anything (even minimize an open application window), it is up to high speed.

The fan noise is annoying, but what is worse, it is the life of the battery which is reduced to 2 h 20 min. maximum. I recently had the opportunity to work on a new model of Satellite M100 and none of these problems exist on this machine. With a similar material (Core Duo, Intel Graphics, same size LCD screen (screen large 14 ")), everything was quiet, and the battery lasted longer than 4 hours.

Anyone who has similar problems?

First of all, the fan speed is related to the use of the laptop. If you use an application the CPU works with superior performance and produces more heat. Then the temperature increases at the higher level and the fan start to turn.
The battery life is also depends on the use of the laptop and the battery. To my knowledge, the battery 6-cell standard which was delivered with this laptop supports 4700mAh. It is not very powerful, and as a result, you can work with battery only 2.5 hours.
Sure, you could buy stronger batteries:
for example this:
Extended capacity battery (Li - ion, 7050mAh, 9 cells) PA3509U-1BRM
Battery high capacity Pack (Li-ion, 12 cells, 8600mAh) PA3400U-1 b

The last battery with 8600mAh provides a dual power supply and you will be able to run much longer than with the 4700mAh notebook

  • Satellite L850 - after 1 year of use battery runs out quickly

    Hi, through programs such as care or battery battery I see a Toshiba Satellite L850 * 48% battery wear * currently. I notice that a game, the battery runs out quickly, as the warm up by many things and often descalibra and behaves erratically.

    The laptop is a year old. Is it normal that the battery to wear so much in so little time?
    Would you accept a warranty or replacement of the battery may claim the wear caused by improper use?

    First, please note that the battery working time depends on the use of the laptop.
    Running applications heavy performance as a game would drain the battery very quickly. Why? Because parties such as GPU and CPU and cooling to highest performance and this modules needs power.
    Also using the laptop with higher brightness may drain the battery faster.

    You should also know that each battery would start to loose own performance after about 500 charge cycles. This is nothing unusual and happens to all batteries.

    In order to avoid or slow down this process, its recommended to calibrate the battery from time to time.
    Calibration of means of loading and unloading the battery fully.
    Charge the battery until it could be fully charged, then disconnect the power adapter and keep the battery discharge up to his completely empty. Repeat 2-3 times in the line.

    When I use mobile data on my iPhone 5, the battery seems to run out quickly. When I say fast, I mean very quickly, it will drop 100% completely dead in 20 minutes. What I do when I use mobile data is send some Snapchats and that's all. I left mobile data on, I have it on when I need to use it. I tried using mobile data for other things, and the same thing happens. Sometimes the phone will completely die to about 40% of the battery being left.

  • Satellite U840W-10J - noisy fan and the version of the bios

    Hello

    more top of the machine when you run tempro said new version of bios is available, the link to it is [Satellite U840W BIOS 6, 40 - WIN | http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory = 2 & selFamily = 2 & selSeries = 198 & selProduct = 7570 & selSh ortMod = null & language = 13 & selOS = 40 & selType = 4 & yearupl = DST & monthupload = & dayupload = & useDate = null & mode = all Machines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = all & selectedLanguage = 13 & type = 4 & page = 1 & ID = 84640 & DISO =-1 & driverLanguage = 42]

    But when I go to the bios, it says the version of bios is already 6.4 - which is strange since the release of this version of the bios date is 10/07/13. And I don't know that I don't have day of the bios for this version this month :)

    Why does say new version is available?
    Would be - that there's a newer version available, that only that it binds to an evil?
    Even if I download and try to install it, it says that this version of the rom is the same.

    Second question is noisy fan, most of the time is at very high speed (and because of the odd design, when the laptop is open, screen - which becomes really hot fan).
    Since no other laptop I used make these noises, if I really need to update for the bios? But which version?

    Health Monitor shows the 77% fan speed - and I'm not playing games or whatever it is, cpu is always below 10%, I m doing nothing, just a light browsing can turn up to such percentage. What I've noticed, is that it becomes this top still when HARD drive this is - like application installation, download updates, etc... I have download the latest drivers intel to drive HARD, all drivers are more recent. Or is it only noisy due to bad design (fan blowing on screen), and I can use it for heavy work and just have to ignore the noise of the fan?

    Last updated driver to trackpad kills finger double scroll btw, so, maybe you guys could solve the problem too? Since I had to go back to the old version.

    BTW, the machine is only two days old

    I think that you should not be confused on BIOS. Maybe there is a problem with Tempro. This process runs automatically and it is possible that there is a technical problem. If you have latest BIOS is OK so Don t you worry about this. Just continue to use your laptop and don t change anything.

    What about cooling fan? Cooling fan is controlled automatically and according to the temperature CPU cooling fan works more rapid or slower. When you play the games you need more performance, so use leverage plan high performance. For each day of activities, use the balanced power plan. It will reduce the CPU usage, but it will be good enough for low level activities. What you can try is to change the options for the method of cooling. You can find it in the advanced power options. It should reduce fan cooling and portable activity should run quietly.

    Play around with these options.

  • Re: Satellite A500-GL - noisy fan

    Many people have complained about the noise of the fans on these portable and many computers and many times it is requested to clean.
    In many cases, laptops were new. Mine is new and makes a noise so * please MAKE is NOT * tell me to clean it up.
    This isn't what causes the problem.

    There is a problem with the noisy fans on this laptop and I noticed that it was a question on mobile phones earlier in this series too.
    These users managed to get Toshiba to take note and to eventually release a BIOS update to fix the problem.

    Please can someone from Toshiba, taking this problem serious too so users of GM of the A500, GL models can also receive a solution for this noisy fan.

    If you have this laptop and suffer from this problem, please add your name below.

    Hello

    Noisy fan? You mean the cooling module run too fast or what?
    The cooling module would go faster and longer if the internal temperature for laptop would be too high.
    You can control the laptop and cooling performance in Windows 7 power management!

  • Satellite Pro L series: fan always running even at IDLE when LAN is on

    the fan always running even at IDLE when lan is on
    Thanks for any help, that can stop the fan...

    Just see your questions:
    What model of laptop do you have exactly?
    What system do you use?
    What exactly do you mean by power of LAN?

    I can tell you that the cooling modules are controlled by fan table stored in the BIOS.
    Usually, the fan starts to spin if the CPU would be responsible for some unique applications/processes. It would also be possible that your fan is running continuously with low performance to maintain the low temperature. This isn't a real problem for laptop.

  • Re: Satellite A665-11Z - CPU fan becomes audible very quickly

    Hi guys,.

    After having many problems with an A660, I decided to buy a laptop A665-11Z 3D. I had much better and more stable than the A660, but I noticed that the fan noise accumulates very quickly and can be a little annoying.

    The A665-11Z has an I7-740QM processor and a Nvidia GT - 350M 1 GB dedicated graphics card so they can contribute to this, but all four cores temperature exceeds about 52 degrees (which seems normal for me) and yet its still has its fan turns up to be that sound.

    I exchanged the laptop with my retailer twice already as one had a noisy fan and the other a bad hard drive. They had all the noisy fans and the one I have now has been silent so far, but is even harder than normal. I tried to play with the settings "Advanced" options for power management and played a bit with 'High Performance' cooling options to "Battery optimized". It does not constantly on 'Battery optimized' (as it does in High Performance) but when it lights it is even stronger and it takes too long to switch off).

    Is this normal with all A665 and I just have to continue to live with it?

    Thank you

    Hello

    What to say? I use laptops now almost 10 years and have changed several models (not only the portable Toshiba) and I can say that some models have a cooling fan stronger and some are quite calm but none of them was absolutely quiet and silent.

    In General, I had good experience with method option in settings of cooling energy saving and after changing battery optimized mode, I noticed that s laptop cooling fan is much quieter than before. Unfortunately there is not much you can do about it and I'm afraid that you have to live with it.

    I put t know what kind of activities you have every day with your laptop, but if you use it for internet, office, Skype or something similar use with power with lower CPU performance management. Processor is powerful enough and you won't see lower performance than before. Make sure you also cooling fan is not blocked and the laptop can be cooled properly.
    I m afraid you must live with it.

    The thing than an end: you wrote >... I have now has been silent so far, but is even stronger than normal.
    At this point I m wondering what is normal and how is it defined?

  • Satellite R830 - 10 c fan always run very fast

    Hello

    I just erased the hard drive and reinstalled all CD recovery disc. The only additional software that I installed is windows office 2010.

    I have read other discussions on the fan and changed the setting to colling under voltage of the battery and I've updated the BIOS. I don't think I have the recognition of the fingerprint software installed only face.

    However fan works always very very fast all the time. Processor, which is an i3 2310 @2. 10 GHz, around 30% and 50% of RAM is bieng used approximately 2.04 GB.

    IEXPLORER uses more CPU and RAM to all about 02-05 looking at the Task Manager and about 482 000 K memory. I have 92 processes. System Monitor is running the most discussion, 145 under resources. I don't know what this means, but the blue line on the chart of the CPU in the resource manager is always upward at 100% outside the odd dip to 95%.

    Anyone with any ideas or solutions, it would be much appreciated!

  • Satellite U400-15B - noisy fan after Toshiba WIndows 7 upgrade

    Hello world

    Question 1:
    Last week, I got my Windows 7 Upgrade DVD from Toshiba. I'm leaving has upgrade and after 5 hours, the upgrade was complete. I have encountered a problem that the automated driver installed on the endgame wrong on the update of the BIOS because it is trying to write the backup file of the BIOS on the DVD. After a lot of pressure on the keys, I managed to get the installation to carry and then did the BIOS manually updated later. This succeeded and it updated to V4.80.

    Since the update of the BIOS, the fan noise is much stronger. I noticed it's from the fan that is to the right of the envelope, I guess it is the CPU fan. The fan that blows air on the left side of aeration wors as usual. Any suggestions? Should I get the BIOS, if so, how can I restore from the file BIOS.bak WinPHlash is?

    Question 2:
    The Upgrade of Windows 7 Toshiba DVD, I am able to do a new install of Windows 7, IE not need to upgrade to Vista?

    Question 3:
    On the upgrade DVD Toshiab is automatically installs the drivers required after the upgrade to WIndows 7. He had 22 things to do on my own. Does anyone know how to get the list of the required drivers for this laptop that the upgrade DVD refers to?

    Thank you very much for your time in reading this.

  • Satellite A500-1GL - noisy fan

    Hello

    I recently bought a Toshiba A500 1GL. No sooner had started kicking fan who is very very loud and continuous.
    I thought it might have been that a fault was the laptop replaced because she is less than 28 days.

    The new laptop does the same thing, the fan is so noisy.
    I can't concentrate on work as such a sensation that I will not use the laptop.

    I have two other laptops Toshiba and nor do anywhere near as much noise and are not on as often.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thank you

    Hi mate

    Fan activities depend on the heat dissipation!
    There is a simple explanation; more the CPU and GPU, the higher heat dissipation and a higher temperature which requires stronger and faster fans!

    If don t wonder about this fact!
    What you can do is to allow the Eco utility.
    You can also change some settings and the option in Windows 7 power management!

  • Do the Satellite P850-30V fan to run more quickly or reduce heat accumulation?

    So I've always had a lot of problems with this laptop of heating, and when maintenance of the fixed Bank nothing I assumed it was a feature, not a bug (so to speak). I often use it to play games, but while most of the games to automatically detect high graphics settings, I can't actually run these because of the massive accumulation of heat.

    If I put the machine in power saving mode, use a cooling pad and transform the graphics for the smaller settings, I can usually run things (even if they are slow and ugly), so even if it was a discomfort I treated just with her.

    However, when today I was installing an update of the BIOS, I noticed that the fan ran faster that I never saw before, that irritated me a bit because it runs more slowly even when the computer is about to overheat.

    Since then it can clearly go fast that the problem is obviously not an accumulation of dust.
    The only options for control of heat are those in power options, that are totally unnecessary. Is there something wrong with my computer, I'm missing something in terms of fan control or I was just a sucker for the purchase of this company in the first place?

    > The only options for control of heat are those in power options, that are totally unnecessary
    Windows power options are not useless
    Is that you can control the CPU as well as the method of cooling performance.

    Here is a very detailed explanation of each option
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD12017W0001R01.htm

    I recommend you to check the CPU power management area and change the State of the processor Maximum max 85%
    Also the cooling method should be set to 'active '.

    In any case, to avoid the high temperature of the GPU, you also use the Toshiba page graphics cards drivers because these drivers are modified and released for mobile use
