Satellite R830 random freeze with no way to take back control - full fan speed

Hello
I've been Googling autour for a bit now, looking for a solution to what could be a hardware problem.

Randomly my Satellite R830 suddenly freezes and the speed of the fan running at full speed. It's actually a useful way to be immediately aware that my computer crashed. Everything is frozen, the only way out is to force via the power button.

I hit the same description on several Web site for different models of Toshiba, return of 2009. It seems that the problem is still there! I also read testimonials from this problem for Windows and Linux OS. I use a Debian Squeeze, which does not detect the newspaper when the accident occurred.

Sometimes it can be fine for a week, but recently, the computer freeze at least once a day, which is not acceptable for a new laptop.

I am really getting concerned if something will be done soon, or if I should ask for an Exchange and pray to be spared. I use my laptop on a daily basis for professional use, and so I would definitely prefer another solution. I have been waiting for 4 months now and just update my BIOS 3 days ago from Web site of Toshiba with no noticeable improvement. the computer crashed 4 times in the last 2 days.

If someone managed to overcome this problem, I would be very grateful for the tip!

Hello

A question: do you have a fingerprint reader?

I got this Toshiba document that describes a problem similar to yours.
This problem can be caused by old fingerprint software you need to update this software where you have a fingerprint reader.

  • Satellite C660D - software to control the fan speed?

    Just brought a C660D. Someone knows the software to control the fan speed?

    My laptop CPU fan always turns to 74-80% of max speed. That's a lot of noise. I tried cpucool, but it did not work.

    If does not work, the fan speed will remain at the temperature of 0 with cpu at 38 oC. But with any operation tiny, like the click of the mouse, it will change again to 74%, CPU temperature does not change.

    Hello

    I guess that the Toshiba Power Saver has been installed on your laptop and you use this software from Toshiba.

    If you are using Win XP and that the GST is installed, then you can check the configuration of basic settings and you might find the options to control CPU, CPU processing speed and method of cooling.

    If you are using Vista, then you should check the Vista Power Options:

    Hello

    I am looking for software of control/read on my laptop fan speed, because energy does not seem to do anything. It seems not serious if I set the 'method of cooling' to 'Battery optimized' or 'Maximum Performance' or fixed CPU processing speed. I () has installed the Module & Power Saver town a couple of times without success.

    SpeedFan & NHC will not work.

    Hello

    Sorry but I do not share your view on Power saver utility. Do you really believe that Toshiba create tool like that for nothing? Just FYI: public service power saver is not available with Vista operating system and on this forum, you will find topics where people really miss this fun and useful utility.

    In any case, it is well known that many tools that you can find on the internet do not have much influence on laptop cooling fan speed. To be honest, something like that can be very dangerous because the majority of users want to have silent notebooks and overheating problems are totally underestimated.

    Can you please be a bit more specific about your problem? Your laptop is too strong for you or is the short battery life? Why you are not satisfied with this tool?

  • Satellite L300-1F8 freezes with Win 7 but ok under Win XP

    Hello

    made me this Satellite L300-1F8 as hand down from my sister, and first glance seems he was in working condition.
    There is no OS on it and I decided to install it with windows 7.
    It starts up fine on the disc, but after some time on the installation process, it freeze or reboot.

    The next thing I did was have it running on an Ubuntu live CD... it did boot from the live cd, but after a while it froze again. I've done a memory test and all modules are very well.
    I check the hard drive, and again, it was ok. So I tried to install Windows xp on it and to my surprise it is installed without any problem.

    Does this mean that I can just install XP on this model?

    Also, I noticed that whenever the battery (the orange on the front of the unit) light is turned on, the computer restart or hang...
    This means that this device has a power problem?

    and oh, as I currently running on Windows XP, I have updated the Bios of 1.50 to 2.20 and even once tried to install Win 7, but had the same problem again.

    I returned to Win XP and installed without a hitch.
    Here is the complete model in my unit: Satellite L300 - 1F8 PSLBGE00T004AR...

    any help would be greatly appreciated... Thank you...

    Hello

    > Does that mean I can only install XP on this model?

    No, you can install any system. The hardware specifications of the Satellite L300-1F8 seems ok: processor Intel Pentium dual-core T3400, 4 GB RAM, 250GB HDD and Mobile Intel GMA 4500 M graphics card is good enough to Win 7

    I m wondering why the laptop froze running Windows 7 or Linux

    > Also, I noticed that whenever the battery (the orange on the front of the unit) light is turned on, the computer restart or hang... This means that this device has a power problem?

    Do you mean the battery indicator? The battery indicator is the 3rd left.
    The battery indicator indicates the State of charge. Green: charging completely charged and orange way.

    There are also other indicators:
    The first left is indicator DC IN which turns green when the AC adapter DC voltage. If the output of the adapter is abnormal this indicator shows no light.

    The second on the left is the led lights green when the laptop is running. If you turn off the computer in standby mode, it starts flashing orange. If the computer turns the indicator shows no light.

  • Satellite A660-12E - freezes with graphical objects

    Hello

    Here's my problem:

    I bought a Satellite A660-12th. Was obtained last Saturday, transported with great caution.

    The problem is that when I use a program dependent CG as a game, the games freezes quickly, even in the menus, with the screen objects, symptom of failure of CG (that happened in the menus of TF2, alien swarm and all playing Plain SIght). When Windows (with aero and transparency), goes on the internet, watching movies, everything is ok. No problem when using 3DSmax and Mudbox, but does not check since the last time the problem happened.
    In addition, the problem does not occur the first time that I start a game. After a long series of the computer (I use a cooling station and check the temperature: never more than 55 ° c) to download a game on steam, for example.

    I tried to install my own version of windows 7 (64 bit professional), updated the cg driver, installed a selection of programs from ninite.com, but the problem is back.

    Since then, I am a student with low resources and worked all summer to get a laptop, I am a little upset. :/
    Anyone has a solution, or should I contact the customer as soon as possible?

    Thank you.

    I can only tell you that it is important to use the original display driver Toshiba place drivers nVidia because they are pre-tested and overheating protection. So be sure that Toshiba display the most recent driver is installed.

    As mentioned in other threads; BSOD can be caused by the software problem or hardware problem.

    Have you noticed a higher temperature?
    The higher temperature may affect the functionality of the laptop. It might affect the RAM causing the BSOD.
    If the temperature is too high, the laptop stops automatically to prevent the equipment from damage.

    Why is temperature too high? Maybe the cooling fans are clogged with dust and debris
    Remove it with compressed air spray maybe that helps

  • Satellite P300 - 161 freeze randomly.

    Hi all

    I have some problem with my Satellite P300-161.
    He is running on MS Vista and I get random freezing with the computer laptop everything.

    By freezing, I hear every application that runs past to the mode "not responding" and it freezes for about 10 seconds, then after 10 seconds or so everything will return to normal. HOWEVER, sometimes in frozen mode, I can thaw the laptop while hitting / drawing the space next to the touchpad... I know it's bad, but it's the best way to solve this problem.

    Is there anyone who knows why it freezes like that? Internal hardware problem? This component is under the area as I type?

    Oh I should add also that when he is in frozen mode, there is this very very slight hum from the laptop, that noise disappears as soon as the laptop stops freezing.

    Thanks in advance.

    PS. I uninstalled the operating system more twice if the OS is not the problem as I know.

  • 'Stuck' inside an application with No Way Out

    I recently bought an iPad Mini 4, my first iOS device after years of Android. There is much to say about the iPad, and I can see why it has become so popular. There are things that I have to "unlearn" on Android to succeed with the iPad, and that is what is talking about this issue.

    When you work with the apps I sometimes find myself 'stuck' inside an application with no way to go back where I was before. There is no visible controls that move to be back, and swipe left/right/up/down does not help. The only thing I can do is quit the application by pressing the Home button.

    In Android, I can press the previous to go back to where I was before. I can go back in a full application to the first screen. Can I do this with my iPad Mini 4?

    Double-click the home button, then tap the application you want to switch to.

    Do we sort of degrading the BIOS or thw way to earn the slow CPU fan speed?

  • Satellite A300-1GC random freeze

    Hello

    my laptop (Satellite A300-1GC) worked very well for many years. But then last year he startet freeze randomly.

    What I mean with gel: I can't do anything, the mouse and the button are not, nothing on the screen moves (stop animations etc.). The only way to restart the computer is pressing the power on button for a few seconds.

    First of all I thought to a software problem, perhaps caused by an update windows (windows 7 Professional).

    The problem appeared different situations (programming, surfing the web,...), but often directly after starting the computer. Sometimes even in the login screen. I disabled all the startup process automatic antivirus, software, etc., but the problem remains.

    I never had the problem in safe mode (don't know if that's the correct word, in German, it is 'abgesicherter Modus'), but I don't use it very much, as a test.

    Then I installed linux mint on a separate partition. At first glance, it seems that the problem does not occur there. But after a few days: same problem. Random freezes, often after the start, but also at any time thereafter.

    I have not found any information related to the problem in the newspapers, in windows or Linux.

    So now I think it's a hardware problem, as it took place in windows (even at the login screen) and linux.
    I checked the disc with windows chkdisk and memory with memtest86 +. No error was found.

    You have an idea, what could be the reason for the gel? You need more info?

    Thank you very much

    Laptop could start freeze due to a higher internal temperature.
    After a long period of use fans and the vents may be blocked by dust.
    Dust prevents the fan is working properly and therefore the temperature could increase that may affect the functionality of the laptop.

    Try to clean the grates and remove the dust using a jet of compressed air.
    It is perhaps the best way to get rid of dust

    Another reason for this gel could be the memory problem
    It seems that you have already checked the laptop for the problems of RAM running the memtest86 + but even if this tool has said there is no problem of RAM, memory dysfunction might be possible. Of course it's only suggestion

    I think that you don't have a choice but to check each possibility: new installation of the OS, fan cleaning, maybe new HARD drive?

    Everything is possible
