How to change fan speed on Satellite P100-286?

Hi,
First, know that Im French so sorry for bad English I may use,
I work in a confined area with some other computers, and, it becomes pretty hot in there...
My P100-286 (Ive also seen it called P100-473) is quite hot and I want to speed up the fan manually because it seems that the OS I have (Vista SP1 or Debian in dual boot) can't do it and the problem is that the CPU, and probably the geforce, are heating the keyboard and this is really unpleasant ...
The BIOS setting that manages fan is already set on "performance mode" but this is not really better....
So How can I make fans turn at full speed?
Thanks

> the problem is that the CPU, and probably the geforce, are heating the keyboard and this is really unpleasant
The point is that the P100 was equipped with high performance CPU and GPU and both devices produce a lot of warmness.
May I ask you what graphic driver you have installed?
The original Toshiba graphic drivers support an overheating protection and this helps to decrease the GPU performance and to reduce the heat output.
The non-Toshiba graphic drivers dont support such protection and therefore using non Toshiba GPU drivers could lead to the higher temperature.
Greetings

  • How to control fan speed on Satellite A660-11M?

    please any body know how to control fan speed its always 69% and make bad noise and the cpu usage is 3% no at high processing i try advanced power settings but still runing at high speed

    > I hope u didnt expect that they were gonna stay at 0% like forever
    Of course I dont expect this. When you switch on the notebook CPU reach high temperature in few seconds only and you must not wonder if pretty high CPU temperature and fan activity will be shown very soon.
    I dont know what do you expect but it is logic that cooling fan will run. Maybe all time maybe will be cut off for short period of time but it will run permanently. I dont see any problem there. With cooling method option it can be reduced a little bit.
    And what is your question? I didnt understand what you want to know exactly.

  • Changing Fan Speed On iMac via Windows?

    Well I've been browsing a lot about how to change fan speed on iMac from windows.  I use windows primarily for development and sometimes my computer can get pretty hot and my room can get really hot because of it.  So if anyone could tell me how to do it, it would be extremely helpful.  It would even be ok if it was low level assembly code.  I just want to change the fan speed on windows and I can't find a program to do it.  Thanks in advance.
    Matt

    Oh it's fine!  I kind of wasn't extremely helpful because I have seen a lot of previous posts with not much results (they were a few years old though).  Yea the only reason I do use windows is because of .Net framework development :\.  I would like to switch to all java but I like XNA and Visual Studio.  Mono ***** so I'm just waiting for something good.  Anyways thanks for the help.  And if any low level mac programmer see's this, please tell me how you could go about this! 
    I'm sure if someone had disassembled OS X they could figure out how to do it.  (Not promoting this because I'm pretty sure it's illegal).

  • When I use Photoshop CS 6 to edit video, I don't know how to change video speed after I converted the clip to smart object?

    When I use Photoshop CS 6 to edit video, I don't know how to change video speed after I converted the clip to smart object? The clip color turns purple and it only allows me to add motion but not change the clip duration and speed anymore.

    Thanks for the reply and as a work around method I used the Photoshop to do all the adjustments then export the video to iMovie to finish the final cut. I also have a problem to paint or clone on a blank video layer created in Photoshop. It tells me the time is beyond the target frame time, I don't understand the message. Can you explain to me what did I do wrong? Thanks a lot!

  • Change fan speeds on Lenovo G560?

    Hey there, I'm wondering, is it possible to manually change the fan speeds on this laptop? When I'm rendering a video in Sony Vegas it heats up my laptop and I'm just wondering is there a solution other than laptop cooling pads?

    as i know, controlling the fan is not possible for this serie of lenovo.

  • How to change clip speed w/o moving all the other clips in a sequence?

    when I have many clips in a sequence and try to change the speed of a clip (which changes the length) FCE automatically shifts all the following clips. is there a way to turn this feature off?

    Not in FCE. FCP 7 has that feature.
    Think about it; when you speed up a clip, the duration is shorter, therefore the clip is shorter. When you slow down a clip, the duration lengthens, therefore the clip is longer. How would FCE know that you don't want the clip to remain the same duration?
    You'll need to trim the clip accordingly based on the amount of speed adjustment you want.

  • How to change the speed of a clip without frame blending?

    Hi,
    I changed the speed of a clip to 200%. I expected Premiere to drop every second frame. Instead, there is some frame blending making my progressive footage interlaced. For some reason, the frame blending cannot be disabled by using the Use Frame Blending option.
    How can I make Premiere simply dropping every 2nd frame?
    Thanks in advance!

    In my test, all I need do was right click the clip and make sure Frame Blend was not checked.

  • How to increase fan speed on HP pavilion dv7

    i have a major problem with my fans on my pc. It often reaches 80-90 degrees celcuis, when i have been playing a fairly simple game for about 20 minutes. does anyone know what to do? and it dosent seem like i can increase my fan speed in any way. i have been trying almost everything i can find on the internet. please help

    Hello themanafreak.  I understand your notebook is getting warm during use.
    First, you should ensure that the cooling system of the notebook is free of dust and debris but cleaning the notebook as per these instructions.
    Also, another good step to take is to ensure that you have the latest version of the BIOS installed.  I can locate the latest BIOS for you if you provide me with your product number.  This document can show you where the product number is located. Finally, I do not know of a way to increase the fan's speed itself but you can set the fan to "always be on" by doing the following.
    Reboot your computer and press F10 until the BIOS loads.Navigate to the System Configuration section.Ensure that "Fan Always On" is set to enabled.Navigate to the Exit section and save your changes.
    Have a great day!

  • How to change colour settings on Satellite Pro P300

    I just got my new laptop and can't for the life of me find how to change the colour settings in the monitor.
    On my old desktop there was a button on the monitor.
    Being a first time laptop user im going nuts trying to find how to change my monitor settings...
    If anyone can help id be so grateful

    Please dont mix the notebooks internal monitor with the external desktop PC monitor.
    You will not find any control unit like on the external monitor which would help you to change the color.
    I dont know what graphic chip your notebook uses but my notebook supports Intel graphic card and the preinstalled Intel graphic media accelerator (in control panel) provides some settings for color correction;
    The settings are; color, gamma, brightness and contrast
    There you can set the values between 0 and 100

  • Satellite P100-286: I want play movieson HD TV

    I have a P100-286 Notebook and want to be able to play movies through it on my HD TV. I also have Harmon Kardon Soundsticks 2 to go with this as I'm not sure how to get the sound through my tv speakers. Whats the best way to connect the notebook to the TV?

    Hello
    Sorry to say but there is no way to watch HD DVDs using your notebook. For HD DVD your notebook should have HD DVD drive and also HDMI output. With simple words: forget it!
    You can connect your notebook to your LCD TV using S-Video cable. For sound you need audio cable and you can connect it to headphone port using small adapter http://ecommerce.intermediae.it/images/07628G.jpg

  • Satellite P100-286 - Vertical lines on the screen and constant reboots

    I got this P100-286 with Nvidia Geforce Go 7900 GS and recently the laptop started freezing with vertical lines on the screen tried different options even tried recovery cd to re-install and after installation it started doing the same. I have read similar problems in the forum and is this a common problem with Toshiba? I have spend 1500 on this and it is only 3 years old. My friends have laptops older than this almost 6 years and in good working condition.
    Is there any solution or suggestion for this problem? The heat on the base of the laptop is really hot and it is like this for ages.
    Any help is really appreciated after spending this much would like to last longer or it is a realibility issue with Toshiba brand.

    It is happening in BIOS and even tried ubuntu on a boot cd and still having the same problem. I took to a PC servicing center they immediatly said it is a graphics card problem. The lines are comming in an external display as well. If you search in this forum you will see similar issues is reported by another user. I do think it is a genuine problem. The graphics chip is on board and it cost a lot to replace it that is what I been told.

  • Satellite P100-286 won't start anymore

    Hi,
    I have a P100-286 which I don't use very often but today I tried to switch it on and all I get is a flash from the lights near the speakers and the power light comes on for a few seconds then nothing.
    The battery light is lit up red but it also won't start if I take the battery out a connect it to the mains?
    Is it likely the laptop is dead or could it just be the battery?
    I have only had it a few months and don't use it very often so the battery has not been under much load

    Hmm sounds not good!
    Try this firstly;
    Remove the battery and disconnect the AC adaptor for about 20min.
    After this short period, connect the battery and the AC adaptor again and try to start the notebook.
    If this simply procedure does not help, you will have to contact the ASP in your country for a notebook check.
    Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

  • How to change the HDD on Satellite Pro 430CDT

    Can anybody tell me where I could find simple instructions telling me how to dismantle my old 430CDT in order to fit a larger hard drive? I'm thinking of replacing the 1.25gb drive with a 4 or 6 gb hdd - assuming the drives I have can be persuaded to fit.
    I'm guessing the hard drive is hidden somewhere beneath the keyboard, but can't work out how to remove +that+ without damaging it.
    I have no real experience of this sort of thing - I've done nothing more complicated than fitting new RAM to a less-ancient A120, and changing hard drives around on a Satellite 320.
    The archives don't help, unfortunately, although it's entertaining reading the old press releases and adverts and seeing what was considered high-performance just twelve or thirteen years ago - progress in computer design is pretty rapid, isn't it?. Makes one realise that within a couple of years from now anything with less than a terabyte HDD and quad-core processor will be as amusingly obsolete and limited as my old 430 seems now.
    Absolutely no practical reason for this - purely out of curiosity, and just for the fun of it.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated - thanks in anticipation!

    Thanks for that suggestion - unfortunately, I still can't locate the hard drive.
    With the computer upside-down, I can get at the memory (a rectangular plastic covered secured with two screws), the battery (which I've removed for now), and the lever which ejects the CD-ROM (or floppy drive).
    Looking round the sides of the machine, I see PC card slots and various connectors/ports - most of which I don't recognise...
    Your description would suit my other ancient machine, a Satellite 320, perfectly - and replacing the hard drive on that takes but a couple of minutes. The 430 seems more difficult, to say the least.
    If you could suggest anywhere else for me to look, I'd be most grateful!

  • How to change the cooler on Satellite M30-344?

    Hello,
    I´m pretty lucky with my Satellite M30-344 but since 2 months the cooler starts to get louder every day. Is it possible to change the cooler on my own and how expansive is the original cooler? Do you know something like a tutorial for the changing process?
    Originally 2 256MB Ram pieces is installed. Now I´m thinking about a bigger RAM piece. As far as I know the are only 2 slots for the RAM or am I wrong. Is it possible to install two 1GB RAM pieces???
    Thank you for your help!

    Hi
    The replacement of the internal devices is not easy and a little bit risky.
    I would not recommend replacing the cooling module yourself.
    You could damage something on the board and as you know the motherboard is a one of the expensive parts of the notebook. The manuals are not published because such documents are only for the technicians and service partners.
    Therefore I think you should ask a service partner for the help because these guys have more experience in such procedures.
    I found a online site with the memory modules for Satellite M30-344
    http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=6958&ft=m&st=3
    It says that its possible to update the memory to max 2GB. Therefore I Think its possible to use 2x 1024MB module.
