Fan Constantly running after Bios Update

Hello,

Thank You

ricwimmer1,
Sometimes things are not interlated. When was the last time you completely cleans the chassis of dust.
Use this guidline to start: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02433041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=1841799&tmp...

Be sure to remove the front cover (see Pg3), and clean the dust off the chassis.

MacBook fan constantly running after recent updates

Ever since I installed the QuickTime/FrontRow/iTunes update of the other day, my MacBook's fan has been running constantly. I have rebooted, reset the SMC, checked Activity Monitor for any rogue processes, reinstalled the updates via the downloads from Apple, etc., and found nothing out of the ordinary. I installed iStat Pro's Dashboard widget to monitor the speed, and it shows it as running from 5300 - 5800 RPM regularly even with nothing intense going on. This doesn't seem normal, as before the fan would only come on when I was doing something CPU-intensive. Any ideas?

I finally found my issue, it was NOT the recent update (at least on my machine) but my printer queue.
When I print from my MacBook I do so wirelessly through a printer I connect to a different Mac just for this purpose. BUT, this time I disconnected the Printer from the other machine apparently before two of my jobs had been able to print. Thus, for the last three days each time I turned my Mac on it would endlessly look for the printer and attempt to print. This could be seen under Process ID 0, called "_PrintJobMgr".
THE FIX:
All I needed to do was go to System Preferences -> Print & Fax-> then delete any open jobs.
So, this was my fault, but it would be nice if the software was smart enough to kill these jobs on its own.

ThinkVantage Toolbox does not run after BIOS update

Lenovo ThinkVantage System Update Tool on my T410 ThinkPad (2518EWG) offered me download and installation of ThinkPad BIOS Update Utility US version 1.28-1.11.
Since then, whenever I try to run Lenovo ThinkVantage Toolbox I receive a message: „This version of Lenovo ThinkVantage Toolbox is not licensed to run on this system“.
I notice that the ThinkVantage Toolbox still shows the old BIOS No. 6IET49WW (1.09), while the updated BIOS is 6IET68WW (1.28).
Any comprehensible instruction how to solve the problem for a computer layman will be much appreciated. Thanks - Jan

I have at least found out why this happened, the program obtained from Toshiba automatically 'attempts' to upgrade the BIOS upon activation. This means that the program engaged with errors without my authorisation. I don't find this very impressive from a company as large and powerful as Toshiba.
Also it may be possible to fix myself if the BIOS installation instructions made sense, extracting the .zip file does not create three sub folders and pressing the F12 key does not start the laptop.

Satellite L300 does't run after BIOS update from V2.10 to V2.20

Hi
I just installed BIOS V2.20 over the Bios V2.10 for my Toshi Satellite L300 over Windows XP.
Afterwerwards the Machine starts and shows just the XP starting window and the restart that I have the options save restart or normal restatr.
Nothing runs any more? Even starting from Windows-CD has no effect.
Who can help?

Thanks for you suggestions, but F2 did not help.
I performed the Bios update because on the website of Toshiba, there was written, hat the update increases function of the system.
I just called the update service. They mentioned I should reinstall Win XP, because my Computer starts, but Windows is not starting.

Satellite Pro L100 does not run after BIOS update

Ok the machine is a Toshiba Satellite Pro L100 PSLA4. Problem occurred during a BIOS update from the official Toshiba website. I downloaded the zip file, extracted it and activated the .exe file inside.
The window opened by the .exe was a BIOS flashing program, the .exe also simultaneously wrote a new BIOS file to a temporary folder.
When tried to use the program all I got was an error saying that it couldn't find the new BIOS to input.
I tried again only to get the same error. I then left the laptop for several minutes and when I returned, I found a blank unresponsive laptop.
By unresponsive I mean an obvious lack of BIOS functions i.e. power LED's not changing when plugging in of unplugging from the mains and the fact that I had to pull the battery out to turn the machine off. When the machine is turned on now all it does is check the drives and restarts (no display, no beeps)
What do I do?
The first thing that came to mind was to reset the BIOS.
One problem, I can't find the RTC battery or a jumper switch.

P67A-G45 Fan Control Problem After BIOS Update

My old BIOS version was 1.8. I could control my fans in BIOS(50-75-100% RPM). Also SpeedFan tool was working perfectly, I could change fan speeds freely.
I just installed MSI Live Update and tool updated my BIOS version to 1.E(CPU-Z says v1.14) without any problem. But when I entered BIOS/Hardware Monitor I saw that fan control is disabled. Both sys fan 1 and sys fan 2 are stuck in %65. SpeedFan doesn't working too.
CPU Smart Fan is okay, works fine but system fans are uncontrollable now.

HP p6230a runs slow after bios update - Getting error BIODHD-8 on Diagnostic Tools

After bios update my desktop runs so painfully slow it is unworkable. Disk drive seems to be constantly hammered by processes that don't appear on task manager. Running 64 bit windows 7 (sp1). Running the diagnostic tools prior to boot up comes up with error code BIOHD-8 - A SMART test failed on the drive - please contact HP Support. Ideally would like to get previous version of bios as machine was running well before update.

I will ask my HP Employee Expert colleagues about this internally. It will take a while for them to respond.
the BIODHD-8 error code means your harddrive is failing and must be replaced.
Back up everything that you possibly can before it fails and no longer boots up into Windows .
is your notebook still within the standard warranty period of one year? A notebook hard disk is a warranty replaceable item.(no cost to you while within warranty)

Cooling fans constantly run @ full speed after replacing the upper CPU??

After replacing the upper CPU on a Power Mac G5 (June 2004), Dual 1.8Ghz PowerPC, model M9454LL/A, all the cooling fans constantly run at full speed. All other operations are normal.
I've read, "...after replacing or switching CPU locations the Logic Board doesn't properly recognize the CPU's in their new location and a "Thermal Calibration" is needed". Could a "Thermal Calibration" possibly correct the constant full fan speed issue?
What software would be required?

Hi-
Could a "Thermal Calibration" possibly correct the constant full fan speed issue?
Yes.
What software would be required?
The Apple Service Diagnostic disc (ASD) of the proper version for your machine.
Call an authorized Apple service provider and arrange a calibration, as the disc is not readily available to individuals.

X220 fan constantly runs even a low power settings

Until recently I rarely heard my fan, other than it briefly coming on. After hearing the fan run pretty much all the time now over the last few days, I changed power setting to balanced power and optimized fan control - balanced in Lenovo Power manager. Ran the hardware diagnostics in Lenovo and Cores at 74 and 76 degrees. Fan still runs even after lowering these power consumption settings.
Have the latest BIOS and all other updates installed. No grinding or weird noises - just constant fan running on low speed and a little higher when docked.
I don't know that there is anything wrong and did a search for ideas on how to check that a fan on a laptop is running commiserate with the power and temperature of the laptop.
For Lenovo or laptops in general, how do you check and see that the fan noise you hear is the noise you should hear? I have mine plugged into a mini dock, not blocking any fan exhaust, etc. AC outlet power via mini dock. 90W 20V adapter plugged into the mini dock.
I saw that one user went into the BIOS and changed the Adaptive Thermal Management setting to Balanced from the default of Maximum. Have not tried that as I already have the power scheme to balanced and not sure what setting it - also - in the BIOS will do.
Any experiences with diagnosing whether the X220 fan is operating as it should? Saw many concerns recorded early on but after BIOS updates most excessive problems seemed to resolve.
Funny things is that when I pop the X220 out of the mini dock, the fan noise pretty much disappears. Like right now, within a minute of undocking the laptop, the fan is not longer audible. Power settings for battery and plugged in are both set to balanced so that should not be a factor.

Are you sure there are no trojans or viruses on laptop? Also lounch the task manager and check out the service or application with deranged CPU loading while the laptop is in the idle mode. What is the power usage in the idle mode?

I can't activate windows 8.1 pre-installed on my Toshiba E45-B4200 after BIOS Update

I bought Toshiba laptop Model E45-B4200, at first time I could activate windows 8.1 like a charm.
Few months later Windows 8.1 has crashed, so I did clean install of pre-installed windows, no problem so far. Toshiba Application installer app has downloaded BIOS update, so I ran it.
I tried to activate windows after BIOS update, but it didn`t work. No error message, but Change PC settings window just got minimized every time that I tried to click on Activate Windows option. I thought that I did some mistake, so I repeated windows reinstallation, and same problem occurred again.
Now I can`t update Windows, Office 2013, and so on.
I`ve tried SLUI 4 command to force activation by phone, but it didn`t work as well.
I read on MS blogs that windows 8.1 stores product key on MSDM table, windows should be activated normally. Now I got no options now, can you help me?

It shouldn't need to be activated it. Everything should be automatic. Because it's asking you, that's already indicative of a problem. You might want to call customer support.

After BIOS update Satellite L350-172 doesn't start anymore

Satellite L350-172 Bios-Update from bios-20090203164614 to bios-201002250
I just updatet the BIOS of my notebook from 1.60 to 2,20. Now the Notebook doesn't start any longer.
"It was stopped for reason not to damage the Computer" - blue schreen.
How can I downgrade the bios again? Or - what have I to change in the bios-settings?

Hi schuwe,
Im a little bit confused about your posting. How do you tell your BIOS not to restart?
Anyway, after BIOS update you should load the default settings in BIOS.
Did you choose the right BIOS especially for your model?

If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them. Let them deal w/it.
