• Satellite P100-324: the Fans are still running

  Hi to you all,.

  Maybe you can answer me the question.
  Is it normal that my laptop fans are still running. I put the 'silent' settings in the bios and forced the laptop to run always on 1000 MHz, if I only use it for writing
  in Word or reading emails.

  It's really annoying. I don't know what to do.

  Thankz for your help in advance

  Hello Michael

  It is nothing unusual that cooling fan runs constantly on low speed. On modern laptops, there is a powerful hardware that needs to be cooled correctly. Especially many different processes are active in the background and CPU is standing under pressure. Not much when you use just the laptop for writing, but obviously enough to increase the temperature of the CPU.

  Try it please set the CPU and cooling to a minimum level method. Also check the Task Manager and end the process, you don't need. Maybe this will help!

• Tecra A8 PTA83E fan problem: SOLVED!

  As I say in this post: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=21776, my tecra A8 fan still works at high rpm, and the service is unable to solve my problem.
  Now, the problem seems to be FIXED!
  I downloaded this update to the BIOS: http://dynabook.com/assistpc/download/modify/sate/k15/bios/bios350.exe

  This update to the original for model JDM K15 - K20 (= Tecra A8, Satellite Pro A120 in the other world), but my system does work no problem with that, of course, and the normal fan control returns! Beautifully defines the higher speed when I start a C compiler, and sets of speed in silence when I come wroting this forum :)

  Thank you Toshiba Japan, you make a very good day for me!

  Hey mate,

  This is excellent news, I think that many of us (especially the A120 owners) appreciate these good news like that.

  Please work some time with your machine and give some say how is the work and if you have encountered any problems or questions.

• Fan is still running on the Satellite P300-275. Size fans?

  Hi all

  I just bought a P300-275, which looks like a very good machine. But I have the problem that the fan always works, even when I only surf the web or even when the computer is idle. And this fan is quite loud.

  So I tried the following:
  -J' installed xp
  -J' tried to notebook hardware control (which does not work under vista with this laptop)
  -J' tried rightmark clock
  -J' tried speedfan
  -J' tried different profiles with the 'Toshiba power level.

  Nothing works. I looked for a solution on the forums and found nothing so far.
  I tried to launch my P300 on two "ice" (the things you put in the fridge and keeps the cold), but that market is not.

  My last idea is to change the fans. Could you tell me the size of the fan (s), please? (so that I can look if I can find more "silent" fans for this size?

  Thanks in advance,

  Hello

  Cooling modules are developed and created exactly for this model!
  You know that laptops cooling modules are not always the same.
  Every laptop supports layouts of different motherboard and extends. Amount of space available inside the laptop is always different.

  I don't know what is the size of the cooling modules installed, but what I know is that these cooling modules are only compatible with this series of laptop.
  If the other modules will not match.

• Tecra A8 - cooling fan runs constantly

  Have a new Tecra A8 (PTA83E) with core 2 duo 1.66 and Vista professional. I try some power management settings, but fan still works at low speed, it never stops even if the laptop is idle and cold.

  Is this normal? On my old laptop fan works only if necessary...

  Hello

  Fans are running because the laptop has to be cooled.
  Believe me; the laptop would not cold if the fans would go not constantly at the lower speed.
  I think it is? s better if the fans are running constantly, gently and slowly at low speed as sometimes loudly and jerked.

  What do you think???

• Re: Tecra M11 sudennly freezes and the cooling fan starts to run

  My Tecra M11 laptop is running Windows7 and with a broadband dongle Telstra wireless internet lights up and works normally for a period of time.

  Sudennly it freezes completely and 5 seconds later the cooling fan starts to run until I power off using the power button.
  Clues?
  Thank you

  You must understand that on this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here.
  I can imagine that some background process starts and increase the use of the CPU at the critical level when the motherboard sensors register at higher temperature of the processor and cooling fan starts to run fast enough.

  Try to check in the Task Manager, if something like that happen.

  I put t know how you have configured your operating system and to applications that run in the background, but also to try to stop treatments that you don't need and change some settings.

• Tecra A8 PTA83E - installation of package of added value

  Tosiba Tecra A8 PTA83E
  Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate X 64

  I was unable to install the Toshiba Value added package (vap-vista-1011btn-en) or any version before it. I talked to technical support Tosh for many times and they always promise of customer support will respond to the request, they never do.

  Towards the end of the installation, start the process of "Computational space needs" an error dialog box that contains "ID_ERR_NOTINSTALLVALZ_MESSAGE". The only option available is 'ok' and when this field is selected the installation rolls back and the finishing screen says "The wizard was interrupted before that TOSHIBA Value Added Package can be installed completely".

  I'm, I'm sure you understand, VERY frustrated by this problem. I bought (the very expensive) Vista Ultimate as Toshiba, claim that this laptop is Vista ready and it is quite possible, but the drivers and software provided are not. I also have problems with:

  Bluetooth
  Free config utility
  WinBIOS updater
  Audio driver
  Graphics driver

  I will record these problems from another thread I want to deal with these problems one at a time.

  Thanks in advance for any help being given/offered.

  Hello

  You run the 64-bit version of Vista?

  I m not very surprised that you are not able to install the Package Toshiba Vista added value.
  All the drivers, tools, and utilities are designed for the 32-bit version of Vista!

  To my knowledge the drivers 32 bit don t run on Vista 64-bit operating system!

  Regarding the error ID NOTINSTALLVALZ ERR MESSAGE.
  It seems that the BIOS update could solve this problem.

  This was reported in different threads here in the Toshiba forum!

• Running Windows XP - SP3. Power light flashes and the fan motor is running but no video to monitor input

  Original title: MY PC has CRASHED or?  Windows XP - SP3

  Running Windows XP - SP3.  Power light is flashing and the fan motor is running but no video input for monitor and no power to the keyboard.  I tried another monitor, but still no video input.  I wonder if the motherboard went wrong or what happened.  Thanks for any help.  Pat J

  Hello

  Since there is no power for the keyboard and monitor, the issue seems to be with the material. I suggest that get you in touch with the hardware manufacturer for further assistance on the issue.

• When I close thunderbird is still running in the background and always using data?

  I'm with an internet provider that has limited use of data per month. If I close Thunderbird when done using it it is still running in the background and using the data or is it closed here for not to retrieve messages or using the data?

  When you close Thunderbird, it cannot check or retrieve new messages.
  Not sure what you mean with "always running in the background.
  When you close Thunderbird is closed. Period.

• Tecra A8 PTA83A - Vista 32 bit drivers needed

  Hello

  I'll try to find the drivers (Vista 32 bit) for this computer laptop pta83a - 04g 012.

  However, I can not even find the laptop on the Australian site. In fact I can't find anywhere what "A8" laptops at all.

  http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/support/download

  Can someone help me please.

  I also checked some other sites Toshiba from different countries without result.

  I wish there was an option to check through all countries, at the same time.

  Kind regards
  Paul

  Hmm... I'm not sure why this Tecra series is not listed on the page of the Australian driver Toshiba but same model Tecra A8E PTA83 is released in Europe also.

  

  You can download and use the drivers for your laptop that appear on the page of the European driver Toshiba
  http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/Dow...jsp?service=EU

  The drivers are fully compatible

• HP 17-g121wm: goes black screen, but the computer still running (Linux)

  I use HP 17-g121wm laptop. The screen turns off at random 2-5 minutes after the start, sometimes earlier. The computer will still run, but the screen will be black (the backlight seems to stay lit, however). Any buttons I press on, nothing makes the screen back on, so I have to press the power button to turn off the laptop and back on.
  
  This problem does not occur when I start in Windows, but when I boot in Linux (I tried Ubuntu and Arch linux), the problem persists.

  I tried to boot with the kernel parameter 'nomodeset' grub, but when I do that I can't enter a graphical environment, because the amdgpu driver is based on Kernel Mode Set (KMS) without nomodeset.
  
  I prefer to use Linux on this laptop for programming and development, preferably of Arch Linux. So, any help would be greatly appreciated.

  I run Linux distributions on my desktop PC and from your description, the problem is almost certainly the lack of video drivers, especially in the case of the AMD video chipsets.

  I'm not familiar with the Ark, but I don't know with Ubuntu, which I had problems driver AMD for several versions now, and the last, Xenial 16.04, fglrx drivers simply will NOT work because they are not supported with the new version of the kernel and will not be - as AMD is working on a new driver open source to replace fglrx.

  HP forums provides no support for Linux issues, if my suggestion is to check with the forums Linux appropriate for each distribution.

  In addition, as you use a video chipset AMD, you might find the info you need on the Phoronix forums: AMD/ATI Linux - Phoronix Forums

  Good luck

• Tecra A8 PTA83E - only 3.3 GB recognized by 64-bit systems

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Tecra A8 PTA83E, recently, I inserted 2x2gb DDR2 PC6400 (800 Mhz), my laptop supports only PC5300 (667 Mhz), memory works well, but under ubuntu (x 64) I see only 3, 2 GB, WIN 7 (x 64) and in memtest 3, 3 GB. Why this behavior? Is because the modules of memory has a greater frequency than those who support the laptop? If I insert a memory module(2GB) at a time I see 1, 9 GB. Thank you.

  Hello

  I guess that the other part of the main memory is shared by the graphics chip.
  What value memory appears in the BIOS?

  If the 4 GB are indicated, then everything should be OK.

• Done Tecra A8 PTA83E support 5.1 system speakers & how to connect it

  I have Tecra A8 PTA83E lap top model. (Serial No.: X6100725H)
  When I check my audio system in the Control Panel, it is show the types of outputs for 5.1 suround sytem, even some more up to 7...

  I bought a 5.1 speaker system, now I want to connect with the laptop.
  It has two input pins normal for speakers and input microphone.

  When I check the laptop, it has two plugs for the audio output and others for the mic input.

  Could you please tell me this laptop will support, if so, where the decision-making support or what I by an adapter that allows two taken from a jack (laptop audio output)?

  Thanks in advance,
  Karine

  As far as I know this will work with a digital output only sound. At your Tecra this optical port? I don t think so. I know that Toshiba multimedia notebooks have a.
  So I think that you cannot connect to 5.1 surround sound directly on your Tecra.

  Sound in the Panel options are standard options of Vista.
