The CPU fan does not work on Satellite A60

Hello world

I have a little problem with my laptop.
I noticed my cpu fan does not work. only the second fan are working fine. (general fan)

my PC is a satellite A60
You have a solution to find why my fan does not work?
THX

Hello

I put t know what fan you mean because I saw only a single fan at the bottom of the unit. However, perhaps the second fan is hidden.
It's not easy to say why the fan doesn't work. Maybe dust clog up the fan and cooling module may not work correctly. You can try to use the vacuum cleaner to clean the fan.
If it doesn t work so I guess there must be something wrong with the material and to fix this, replace this part. But in this case I recommend to contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner. He has much more experience in such cases.

    I have toshiba satellite a10 s203 and the cpu fan does not work correctly. What can I do about it?

    Hi SACRIFICE them.

    Here are some possible solutions to this problem of fan.

    1. When you have installed a base installation of MS (not the Toshiba Recovery CD) you need to install the Toshiba Power Saver and others utilities from the CD tools & utilities. The energy saver is responsible for the control of the fan.

    2. If you have a recovery based OS, you can update the energy saver of http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com site Web Toshiba under Support & Downloads - Download Driver

  • Dell Inspiron N5110 CPU fan does not work

    Hello world

    I have a problem with a DELL Inspiron N5110.

    When I turn on the laptop, the fan runs for 15 seconds then it turns off by itself... but the Windows starts correctly, and other components work fine.

    I know that I can't use my laptop if the CPU fan does not work because it will overheat the cpu and the motherboard so...

    Could you please give me an advice?

    Thank you

    The fan will run at powerup self test time, and then won't turn on (or run at full speed) up to a set temperature is reached.

    Function that replaces the motherboard, check that the thermal pads have been replaced when the radiator has been removed from the system.  If this part was not replaced, the system will run very hot.

  • Only the left speaker does not work on Satellite A300

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite A300: the left speaker does not work but the right to a good job.

    I think that this is not a software problem because reinstalling driver does not solve the problem, and I have the same problem with a Ubuntu live CD, also is not a sound card problem because his work well with a headphones or an external speaker.

    The cause is probably a coward of connection between the left speaker and sound card.

    Please tell me what to do.
    I can fix it without sending the laptop of Toshiba ASP?

    Hello

    If you ask for an opinion, so here's one;
    I think that it s speaker malfunction, I doubt that it s a loose connection or something like that and I would not recommend trying to fix this problem yourself.
    First of all, know all you n t that's exactly wrong, and second, you will lose your warranty and could damage other parts if you would disassemble the laptop.

    In this case, the ASP in one and only one good way to solve this problem.
    Contact the guy and ask him for the handling of the Fryer!

    Good luck

  • Cooling fan does not work on Satellite Pro A300

    Hello world

    I was asked by a friend to repair their Satellite Pro A300, because their CPU cooling fan had stopped working even during the start of the POST and the laptop could overheat and shutdown. So I thought it might one of three things:
    # Fan is obstructed by dust or dirt
    # Rolling fan failed
    # Fan power cable was loose

    So I disassembled the laptop and cleaned the fan/radiator with compressed air and check the connection of the supply, which was solid, but this does not solve the problem, so I replaced the fan and the heatsink with another that I knew worked from the same model laptop that had a motherboard fault due to the bug of password to start random bios (out of warranty) but still no joy.

    I'm starting to believe that the fan was perfectly fine rather motherboards temperature of the processor or the sensors that control the activation of the fan has failed.
    Am I correct in thinking that it is essentially, irreparable without specialized tools and my friend will be content themselves to turn the system off each hourish or is there something else I forget?

    Thanks for any help.

    Hello

    I m not a technician, but for me, looks like the fan connector is working properly if you already replaced the fan and therefore, it would be necessary to replace the motherboard

    That s all I can say about it having a look for second mainboard or laptop where you can get a motherboard cheap. Maybe it works. :)

  • USB does not work on Satellite A60

    I had some problems with my A60. He was not running on Windows XP in normal mode, safe mode only; After some research, I put to update BIOS to the latest version and also reinstall WINXP PRO and all the original drivers. But now that everything works OK, no USBs ports work. Key USB is enabled in the BIOS, also acknowledged in the system with no (!), so material works OK, but everything I plug into the USB port is not recognized

    I recommend installing the chipset driver.
    Have you checked the page of the Toshiba driver for this driver? If this is not the case, do.
    If after installing the chipset of the page work driver USB ports doesn't Toshiba and get a yellow exclamation point in Device Manager, then I recommend to check the Intel website for the chipset drivers.

    Generally speaking, you're right, but I guess you know that Toshiba doesn't support Linux, so you shouldn't think twice before buying for Toshiba laptop. If you want to have the right piece of hardware you buy Toshiba again but with Linux, you're on your own.

  • The function key does not work on Satellite A300 (PSAG4E)

    Hello!

    I have laptop Satellite A300-PSAG4E
    I had installed sp3 WinXPPro on it. All great, but some problems with keys appeared.
    First - 6 functional keys above main keyboard (1 - light (?), 2 - multimedia player (?), 3 - play/pause, 4 - stop, 5 - prev, 6 - then) just change light when they pressed, but in OS, there is no action.
    Second - by pressing the Fn key and, e.g. F2 cause no action

    All drivers and programs has been downloaded and installed from toshiba support center. Should what information I provide to solve this problem?

    Hey,.

    What you mean exactly if you write about the replacement of the lamp if you press the buttons of enlightenment? Change the color or what's happening exactly on the laptop?
    Normally the buttons of the illumination and the XP to Toshiba control controls pilot, utilities, etc.

    Using the FN + F2 key combination you can change between the profiles of different powers. Therefore, you need Toshiba Power Saver that can be downloaded on the page of Toshiba. It s really a tool where you can adjust the power and cooling settings.

  • Satellite P850-30W - the fan does not work after returning from the mode "Eve"

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P850 30W with bios 1.90.

    Sometimes the fan does not work at all after back mode standby on windows 7.
    What happened twice (perhaps several times without knowing me), and Ive had the computers for a month.

    Normally the fan starts to run when the CPU gets more than 50 degrees celsius and stops less than 50 celisus...

    I tried running Prime95 when this fan-this occurs and the time of the computer got dangerously high (near 100 degrees)! the fan did not start at all
    .. .This error could damage the laptop potentinally...
    to get the fan turns once again I have to restart windows

    anyone experienced this?
    I guess that the fix would be to never use standby... or toshiba needs to fix it with an update of the bios.

    > Sometimes the fan does not work at all after back mode standby on windows 7.
    > What has happened twice (perhaps several times without knowing me), and Ive had the computers for a month.

    You said it's happened twice and only sometimes done this means that above all the fans are working well?
    In this case, this would mean that it of difficult to reproduce this problem, but you might be right: maybe a BIOS update would help solve this problem permanently

    I found some discussions on the stand-by mode and fan activity and in most cases, the update of the BIOS was the key.

  • Satellite Pro 4200 overheating because the fan does not work

  • Satellite P100-324 - GPU overheating due to fan does not work in the operating system

    Hello world.

    While trying to solve the problem of RAM of 4 GB ([this thread | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=28374&tstart=0]), I meet another weird thing - gpu overheating due to fan does not work in the operating system.

    Now, I restored the XP MCE using the Toshiba Recovery and I was VERY surprised to see that the problem still exists! As soon as loading the system GPU fan stops, and there is only tranquility. The application load is heavy on GPU and reaching 104 results by reducing its GPU and MEMORY clock values and NOT in the activation of the fan.

    The same thing happens in 64-bit gentoo. ACPI can be turned on or off, it is not serious, the GPU fan always dies as soon as the system load. In non-OS environments (bios, program of recovery, etc.) the fan works fine, GPU cooling from time to time.

    This problem occurs in versions of BIOS: 2.40, 4.00, 4.20.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, since this laptop is my main working tool and I can't let go 14 days (service).

    I saw in your other thread that you have updated the BIOS and you have installed several different OS.

    Fact is that the BIOS v 4.2 package contains BIOS 32-bit and 64-bit OS.
    Your laptop has been preloaded with Win XP MCE 32 bit. Please use the 32-bit BIOS if the original XP MCE running on the laptop.

    Best regards

  • Satellite Pro C650 - cooling fan does not work

    My Satellite Pro C650 overheats and stops automatically within 20 minutes of leaving upwards. I checked the CPU fan and noticed that it does not turn upward, even if the laptop would become very hot. I tested the fan with a 9 volt battery and it works perfectly.

    Can someone tell me exactly what the problem is? And how to solve it.

    Thank you.

    > Can someone tell me exactly what the problem is?
    On this virtual path, no one can say with certainty what the problem is. We can only speculate what may be the problem.
    Usually, cooling fan starts immediately after starting the laptop slows down and offers the optimum temperature of material. After reading your ad I didn t understand how it works. He turns and there is no sign of life?
    Problem can be power.
    Cooling fan will be controlled by sensors of temperature and activity depends on the temperature of the material but if your machine cooling fan does not work, I imagine that there is no electric power.

    What do you think?

  • Satellite L505 - 10 X cooling fan does not work

    Dear friends, good computer Toshiba Satellite L505 - 10 X Day.My laptop cooling fan does not work. The CPU temperature is not displayed in the application of PC health Monitor. Kindly guide me to solve this problem, cordially, Siva

    Simply because the temperature is not mentioned in the Toshiba Health Monitor, it doesn't mean, that the cooling fan is not working properly.

    You can hear fan running cooling?
    The laptop is turned off unexpectedly?

    In my opinion if the cooling fan would not properly work, internal temperature should rise very quickly at a critical level... in this case that the laptop must close automatically...

    But if the device does not turn off and if you are still able to use it properly, so I doubt that there is a problem with the cooling module.

  • Satellite P105 - GPU overheating as fan does not work

    I brought a Satellite P105 - S9337 laptop computer around a year ago and it's been great, but I had a problem that began a few months ago. The GPU fan does not run under windows or any OS. It works correctly in the BIOS, but when I hit the operating system, it will stop. This is obviously the cause for overhead.

    -J' tried different drivers of Toshiba and other sources. Currently using 7.15.11.5666 which was the last version of Toshiba.
    -Tried all BIOS and running 4.40.
    -Cleaned it if sure there is no dust blocking the fan wheel.
    -I even sent to Toshiba for repair 4 times and it comes back with the same question.

    It's as if the fan control is equal to change the operating system when it reaches him like bios and basic OS (dos, the flash media bootable back past) works very well. It runs when she is hot and stops when it is ok.

    At the moment that I leat overheating for a while then he seems to remember he's a fan after 30 minutes or more and comes into play. It works on OS at full speed, until my laptop loses power or I unplug battery, that I did today to increase the RAM.

    There must be some drivers or BIOS out there that allows the BIOS to manage the fan or it just as it manages itself is so it doesn't overhead. I'm not pleading can someone help me with what it's getting very boring. e-mail is [[email protected]] If you want to contact me, because I'm out of ideas.

    If I can't get this resolved I'm thinking of dismantling and wiring of the fan on but would prefer to avoid that for now.

    My laptop (P100-481) was overheating too since I have updated BIOS 4.20 and above all. The latest version of the BIOS with work-fan control was 4.00.

    There are two ways to set the fan control:

    1 go to BIOS 4.00. You'll get stuttering in games because the initialization of GPU in the form of Versions all 3.30 to 4.00 are buggy.

    2. you can try this way: [http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/forum/index.php?s=679696d192a1f43137253716ebd799b8&showt = 19190 CIPO & view = findpost & p = 79039]

    It's not easy install a double Windows, but it worked for me.

    There is a bug in the BIOS 4.20 4.30 and 4.40 and a lot of people have trouble with the GPU fan. So hopefully Toshiba find time to fix it in the near future.

  • Satellite A110 stop suddenly - processor fan does not work

    Hello!

    The CPU on my brand-new A110 fan does not work. The laptop turns off suddenly, without hibernation or standby for any CPU consuming activity.

    Can it be linked to a configuration / software problem? If so, how to check?
    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a hardware malfunction. If the fan does not work as it should then it has nothing to do with the software.
    The A110 seems to be a very new unit and I n t think that the dust and debris are responsible of these automatically shut down.

    Why you n t take your warranty? If the warranty is valid must be checked and replaced for free
