Why is the fan?

So I have a HP M7 j120dx, could not remember if I had updated the bios? Perhaps Yes, as well as other pilots.

The fan just continue to run after you activate! Not very strong but annoying, especially when it's cold and freezing of keyboard... My last laptop was HP more, it looks like a plane at night!

This isn't an old machine, fairly new, used only for 2 or 3 months at the most, so it shouldn't be a problem of dust.

As well, it is a machine of 17 ", I think its better cooling.

I think if I should disable "fan always on ', or turn active to passive cooling. But it will affect the material? This means that the fan is not on? HP has another clever way to solve this problem please?

Hi Erico, thanks for your advice.

I'll try to turn off the fan and see how it goes.

You are welcome.

You will not be able to disable the fan via the BIOS. Which is not such a great idea. Disable the "'fan always on ' option puts it right back in control of the BIOS code file programming."

  • The fan runs continuously

    I had this problem for a few weeks and I don't know why. The fan on my Dell laptop starts to run as soon as I turn it on and it does not stop. My son cleaned it out to ensure that it is not full of dust, but that has not changed anything. the computer will not even hot and the fan is running. I can't imagine it's good for the life of my computer to have that going on - is this a big deal?

    Actaully, it is quite normal to have your CPU fan runs whenever your PC is on. He does not even use a lot of battery, so you shouldn't worry.

    My Question: Why the fan on my macbook pro continues to run at a fast pace for long periods?

    I guess that the fan runs constantly, because the CPU is working at a high rate. I rebooted several times but without any resolution systems. At the bottom of the computer is very hot at times so place the laptop on an object that allows good air circulation. This problem occurs intermittently every few weeks or more. I wonder if it is downloading an important upgrade, do a scan of viruses, or by working as a bot. Lights for hours. Currently, I estimate that it has worked rapidly to possible 6 hours. Thank you.

    It will usually be to dissipate internal heat from running resource intensive applications.

    Download and install a temperature/speed control application.

    Open the activity monitor all THE PROCESSES and CPU to display values between high and low.

    When the fan speeds up, post pictures of both for review.

  • Why the FAN always ON the 2nd level - Toshiba Tablet R20-112?

    Hello
    I wonder why the FAN on CORE 2 DUO T5600 1.8 still working on 2nd level
    Although I watch the movie or listen to music on Winamp when the processor is enabled in the lowest power manager.
    Sometimes when I work only with battery fan goes to level 1, very quiet, but only when the Core2Duo have nothing to do, when I turn for example winamp or internal search FAN runs at the 2nd level, much more noise. The air coming out of the fan he has about 31' C.
    I have the most recent bios on this subject. I tried to turn the processor low always, but without effect.

    The battery remains 4 hours as it usually must (4700mAh), 02:30-3 hours on economy mode max.

    Is it possible to change that affect of perhaps of witch fan noisy most energy?

    Best regards

    Hello

    In my view, there is a similar situation as the Portege M400 (also tablet PC). The cooling fan runs almost constantly. Toshiba has designed the special version of BIOS and after update the laptop BIOS works silently. Maybe something like this will be for Satellite R20 but at the moment it is no things to do. You can only reduce the performance of the processor.

    Sorry but I do not see a solution for this. I can't tell you that but 4 hours on battery battery operation time is for me absolutely unrealistic. I have Tecra business notebook. Energy consumption is really minimal, and I can't work more than 3 hours.

  • Why the fan lights up constantly?

    Why the computer shuts off without warning from time to time?  When stop manually, why the screen freeze 'Windows is now Shutting Down' and then not put it off?

    The fan goes on and out constantly after the start.  The computer sometimes shuts for no discernible reason.  And it freezes during shutdown under the words "Windows is now Shutting Down" then does not turn off.  There are 31 updates that it does not seem to accept.

    This looks like a problem of overheating as already indicated by Jose. I disconnect the computer from the electrical outlet, press in and hold the power button for 5 seconds. Remove the side panel from the computer and look for a dusty atmosphere. If present get a can of air compressed, available in most retail electronic dealing and purge by making sure that you get between the radiator grilles (the grid around the processor as in the picture on the link below.

  • Why the fan of my Satellite A500-19W of bizarre acts?

    I bought this computer a week ago. I have Windows 7 64 bit. When I surf the net or watch a movie or listen to music the fan starts for 2 minutes, stop for 2 minutes again. It's a cycle that never ends, and the sound of it that bothers me, making me think that something is wrong. The computer is not hot with the exception of the evacuation zone. It cannot be filled with dust because it's brand new. Is this normal? Should I be worried?

    Hello

    My satellite that a500 is also like that, even if I surf the Internet, watch movie and CPU shows only 5%. I don't play all the games. It didn't because of the dust because I clean it regularly, installed all the drivers, BIOS updated. For the most part, I always run in energy saving mode but fact noise.
    The only way to make it quieter to run the fan at a constant speed as 54%, I simply load the CPU with some applications that keeps the fan runs almost everytime and no perceptible noise

  • Why my PC fans turn at maximum speed all the time?

    I have a (new)< 3="" months)="" hp="" pavillion="" p7-1449.="" the="" fans="" (case+cpu)="" tend="" to="" run="" very="" fast="" (load)="" until="" i="" restart="" the="" pc,="" and="" hit="" esc="" for="" boot="" options.="" i="" usually="" enter="" the="" bios="" screen="" and="" exit="" without="" changing="" anything="" (by="" this="" time="" the="" fans="" slow="" to="" less="" than="" 1000="" rpms="" each) ="" and="" the="" pc="" boots="" up="" with="" the="" fans="" at="" the="" lower="" speed.="" the="" fans="" stay="" low="" until="" the="" load="">

    I hear fans ramping down when I do and reported by the BIOS fan status seems to support my theory that the fans really slow. Unfortunately, I do not yet have equipment controlling software installed on my PC so I don't see no confirmation of the fan speeds up when running in Windows 8. [HP has none of these tools?]

    If I stop and restart Windows 8 normally (so that it uses its startup optimizations 'fast'), then fans seem to go for the maximum RPM.

    The machine was purchase in Nov 2012: apparently not the internal dust is the problem and it would be not fixed by forcing a boot cold. I suspect that it is a software problem (I consider the offending software if it does not reset the hardware correctly at startup).

    It seems that the fans turn upward but never slow down: is it possible to fix this? I wish that the machine to shut up when it isn't loaded (without having to reboot to get it that way). Otherwise, there is no performance or stability problems (yay).

    Hello..
    This seems to be the problem with your bios on the desktop.
    Discover the same fan speed if you have only the keyboard, mouse and the power cord is connected.
    Also check out an update of the bios on the desktop.
    This would probably solve the problem.
    You have a bios update available on the HP Web site.

  • The fan speed does not match cpu temperature

    Hi all

    following my last post, I have a new question. I have a 13 rMBP inches early 2015 2.7 ghz dual core i5.

    by running ' Yes > / dev/null & Yes >/dev/null "(for about 4-5 minutes), I managed to get 100% load on both hearts, beginning of time editing.

    at one point, fans of kick (they were before, 0 RPM, which is normal on the new mbp) and start climbing in RPM also.

    then, cpu temp reached 97 - 98C and the speed of the fans stops about 3250 RPM rise. Temp remains steady at 97 - 98C as if 98C is ok and should not be cooled more far.

    IMHO I'm not sure it's a hardware problem because obviously the temp reading is ok, fans begin to climb in rpm, the only issue is - why they stop at 3250 RPM when the CPU is 98C? (I know about fans of older models, kick to 100% after 90 c, but I wonder if this is the case in the new models or the fault is in my MBP)

    also, it of not like the fans are completely disabled or works 100% all the time, looks like a problem of software for me.

    If someone has the same model of rMBP I would appreciate running the ' Yes > / dev/null & Yes >/dev/null ' and sharing the results.

    p. s.

    I followed the instructions to blow air from the outside - as expected this didn t work
    PS: (if the only answer is that there is no repair and to communicate with a partner who will be my last Toshiba of a pro model and its price I was expecting a little bit more)

    thx for your answer

    Oliver

    Service Manaual is not a public document and not the free download.
    I'm sorry if this will be your last Toshiba but don't be sure that another manufacturer will give you service manual. No one will give you such document.

    Laptops have a specific design and it's pretty easy to damage something. This is the reason why the dismantling procedure should be performed by authorized personnel only. When you buy TV, auto or something else, that no one will give you the service manual.

    Of course, you can do with your laptop all you want but on your own risk.

    Have you tried to remove the dust with compressed air.

  • the fan runs full speed at the beginning upward

    HP Pavilion p6-2037cb bought 19/01/12.  Windows 7.  There is no error message.

    When I turn on the computer after it has stopped all night the fan running at full speed.  This has happened several times in the first month.  The first time, he stopped himself after a few minutes.  Then I learned to stop it by restarting the computer simply.  It still works, but what was once happen one or two times a month, happened twice in two days then you worry I the problem worsens.

    It never happens when I use the computer because I don't do anything that requires a lot of cpu or causes a warm-up.  I just surf the web and send e-mail.  No games or videos or TV.

    If it's a problem of connection fan I would like to know the nearest repair service.  I would rather that ship it.  But I can't find a list of authorized warranty repair service center.  I followed the links on HP Support Assistant but got sent to a site that does not list the pavilions.

    I need to know why the fan runs full speed at first upward and where to repair close to where I live.

  • Satellite Pro L450D - start/stop the fan, constantly power

    Hello

    I recently bought this laptop, and the fan is driving me crazy, whenever the CPU reaches 55 c, fan lights up really high for a few seconds, until the temperature goes down to 45 c, the fan turns off completely, then the cycle repeats indefinitely.

    I changed the method of cooling for optimized battery and has no effect - http://jkontherun.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/toshiba-nb205-power-options.jpg?w=418&h=448

    Why can't the fan stay on permanently @ 30% of the load and thus negating the need for it ramp up to 100% to each time the processor overheats.

    I can't believe such a simple little question like this still exists.

    As I can see for hip's maximum performance. If you use your laptop computer with the AC adapter / CC assign battery optimized too.
    This will reduce the cooling fan activity.

  • Control the fan on Satellite Pro 2100

    I used to see the analysis of the cpu temp with speedfan, I'd see when the temp (labeled local or remote or temp1, I don't remember.) Maybe 'local').
    reached 50 or 50 >, fan went.

    But I can't find that now. The fan still works ' cos I can activate it with speedfan saying speedfan set to 50% or more, then it lights.
    (less than 50% it is not lit, or at low speed - I think a constant - it is inaudible).

    I would like to know why the fan is not when the temperature reaches 50 > more... When the setting is...
    is there a program I can use to do?

    He finds...
    you know toshiba replaces the thing of power management with its own thing in toshiba power saver. Toshiba power saver thing had a framework...

    "Cooling method.
    and
    "Intel Speedstep Technology.

    Each is adjustable to the Performance, or optimized battery or something.

    More course set the method of 'performance' of cooling... If you say 'battery optimized' then I think that the processor gets hot enough.

    Whereas, for the technology intel speedstep... I do not remember that I put there, but I guess that optimized battery would make the CPU cooler.

    However, I noticed when changing the settings of the more advanced page of toshiba power saver setting processor speed to the lowest, it was extremely slow but still an idle at high temperature, about 50 I think, not so much if any difference there.

    I think it was less 0 charge, or charge of 0 to 10. I watch the load with notebook hardware control, speedfan and maybe other programs... However, only was necessary.

  • How can Qosmio G30-126 - I check the fan speed?

    MODEL: G30 - 126
    OS: VISTA 32-BIT SP2

    How to know the speed of the fan? I have try several programs like "sensor hw monitor" & "fan speed" but it's not watch everything think about the temperature of the CPU just fan speed.

    Where is the problem and what I need to do?

    Hmm... Why you want to know the speed of the fan?

    The fan speed will be automatically controlled and you can t change this or manually control. You can change the method of cooling between performance and battery optimized in Vista power management. Did you check that?

    In addition, you can clean the laptop using a jet of compressed air as Akuma written. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.

  • Satego: After 2.30 - bios update the fan operating even in economy mode

    Hello
    I upgraded my BIOS Satego X 200 at 2.30 and the cell phone was much noisier than before due to the fan-activity. (Vista and Linux).
    Now, I've downgraded to 1.50 again. Much better.

    I need the BIOS upgrade for something specific?
    Temperature too high with the older BIOS, so that there could be a problem of heat if I don't pass?

    Joachim

    > Do I need BIOS upgrade for something specific?
    Usually, the update of the BIOS is unnecessary if your laptop runs successfully, no worries.

    > Was too high temperature with the older BIOS, so that there could be a heat problem if I don't pass?
    Well, I m not 100% sure, but maybe the table fan has been changed in the new version of the BIOS and that's why the cooling modules run faster with superior performance.
    Perhaps the table fan has been changed to prevent overheating of the laptop. If the laptop could overheat then could damage parts such as GPU or CPU
