Qosmio F30-112: cooling fan is running very fast

Hi,
I want to ask somebody thier, my laptop qosmio F30 -112 recently every time i start my computer i heard that the cooling fan is running very fast (i mean) it wasn't stop unlike before its running smooth only i heard it when i playing games but not continuous, then after that my computer now running slow.
Somebody can help me what im going to do?
thanks: rtmasagca

Hi
F30 is a little bit older notebook series I think about 3 years old or older... did you clean the cooling modules in the meantime?
I think there is a lot of dust and debris inside the notebook and I think this prevents the air from circulation and therefore the fans run faster.
Try compressed air spray this should help to remove dust and debris.
Good luck

M30X-125 cooling fan is running very often if USB device is connected

Hello,
I have used USB devices with my M30X-125 for a few months and noticed that as soon as I connect a USB mouse or printer with external power supply the fan cooling works very often.With no USB device the fan cooling is very "quiet".
I updated the BIOS with the last 1.90 release and changed parameters (reduce processor speed) of the Power Management Utility.No effect on this fan cooling issue.
Can you help me please to limit fan cooling work with USB device connected?
Regards

Hi Phil
I agree with you but I believe that it is not easy to make a optimum there. If you check other notebooks from different producers the cooling vents are not so quiet. Like you know the units are designed to be small and a lot of hardware is placed at small place. The warmness is very high especially if the CPU activity is high and the units must be cooled before the hardware can be damaged.
I have tested cooling method intensively with my unit (Tecra M1) and if the cooling method and CPU activity is set to lower level the unit doesnt run like I want. Because of that I can live with sporadically running cooling fan but the performance is fantastic and all running processes flow smoothly.

Qosmio F30-112 - system memory upgrade

Hi all
is Qosmio F30-112 compatible with (2+2) GB 667Mhz memory system?

Did you check your user manual which was preinstalled on your notebook?
Usually such info is placed there!
The compatible modules are DDR2 533MHz (PC2-4200) 200-PIN SODIMM.
You could also use the 667Mhz but if your FSB (front side bus) supports only 553Mhz then your 667Mhz modules would run only at 533Mhz

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.

Qosmio F30-112 Drivers for linux

Hi,
I need help. I have Qosmio F30 - 112 and I have linux on my pc. I need drivers for the graphic card.
Thank You

Hi Coz_64,
I agree with the user above. Toshiba doesnt support linux on their computers so you have to search yourself for drivers. You should ask in Linux forum
The most users here are using preinstalled Windows version

My fan is running very loud

My fan is running very loud...Not sure what the problem is..Does anyone have any suggestions?

If it is your fan, the cpu is working very hard.
1. check with Applications/utilities/Activity Monitor, <all processes> , click the %cpu column, what process is running more than 50%?
2. install the widget iStatPro (free), clik the Dashboard: iStatPro will let you see the CPU usage, the temperatures, and the fanspeeds.
If there is a process that is "eating" the cpu, in activity monitor you can quit that process. Check in System Preferences/Accounts Login Items tab, if it is there, delete it there. Restart the system.

Qosmio F30 with tuner: Can it run MythTV (Linux)?

I am considering buying an F30 as my Personal Video Recorder. I would like to run MythTV on it. If you have a Qosmio with a tuner you could help me decide by downloading MythTV and try it out. You do not have to install anything: Just download the iso-file, burn it to a CD (you can use http://infrarecorder.sourceforge.net/ if your software cannot burn ISO-files) and boot from it.
You can find the iso at ftp://ftp.knoppmyth.net/R5/R5E50 or the mirrors at http://mysettopbox.tv/knoppmyth.html.

Hey buddy,
I dont have a qosmio, have a Satellite A100, but I can tell you that mythTV distro runs very good on my machine, so, all hardware except the modem was recognized correctly. I am using an external tuner and didnt expect any problems with it, runs like hell. :)

HP Spectre XT 13-2005tu - Cooling Fan Countiniously Running At Top Speed From Start Up

Ok, Here's a puzzler if anyone can help. HP Spectre XT 13-2005tui7-3517U @ 1.90Ghz4.00 GB Ram256 SSD HD Has been a great laptop, very happy with it, small light powerful, etc, good battery life, everything I needed as student and as someone who travels a lot for work. Towards the end of 2014 the hinges on the screen gave out. Outside of the warranty period HP were kind enough to fix it, however this didnt get completed until approximately Feb 2015 - when I returned from travelling. At the time they gave it a full service - cleaned it up, updated bios, replaced fan. The cooling fan was replaced as they claimed it was noisy, but to be honest I had never noticed it. As soon as I took it home, the fan went crazy. From the moment the power button was pressed it would run flat out and non-stop. Sometime it would change from flat out to nothing every two seconds for 5 minutes - I took a video of this at the time. I had planned to take it back to the service centre but after a few hours it returned to normal. There were no problems for a while, every now and again it would startup and run flat out constantly for an hour or so but would always go back to normal. A couple of days ago it started this again but just won't stop. The moment the button is pressed it is running flat out until the moment it goes to sleep or is turned off. It has also started with the occasinoal intermittent 'running flat out, then slowing down then flat out then slowing down' continiously over about 5 mins (I took a small video of this as well - https://youtu.be/P2ybdunCZf8). I have: - Updated anything and everything. - Formatted the pc and reinstalled windows. - Rolled back and reinstalled the bios. - Made sure the bios setting to constantly run the fan was off. - Checked that the fan was sqeaky clean. - Installed and monitored temps with HW Monitor - fans run flat out at any CPU temp. - Ran HP system diagnostics that show no errors. - Tried hard resets. - Also checked the CPU usage - fan runs at high speed whether 5% or 95% is being used. - Tried different power settings and changing the CPU Cooling policy within the power settings. I am out of ideas. I have a feeling it might be a hardware fault and that I'm doomed but I am keen to know if anyone else has any thoughts, and espeically if there is anything HP can do or recommend. Cheers

Hi , Thank you for your query. I understand that you had the display replaced by HP as it quit due to a hinge issue. When you got it back after they had done full service - cleaned it up, updated bios, replaced fan. The cooling fan was replaced as they claimed it was noisy, but to be honest you had never noticed it. As soon as you took it home and powered it on the fan went crazy,running at full speed non stop. The speed sometimes would change from full to nothing every 2-5 minutes. After a few hours it seemed to settle down and work normally.Occasionally the issue would return for a hour but then return to normal.A couple of days ago the issue returned but now remains constant. Here is a link to HP Notebook PCs - Fan is Noisy and Spins Constantly, PC is Warmer than Normal. As this did start just after the repair, I would contact HP support, explain the issues and get your options if the above has not helped.Please contact HP support at Contact HP Support.

My Macbook Fan Is Running Very Loud...

My fan has been running very loud for the past week and I'm not sure whats wrong with it.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If the fan is working all the time, it looks like a sensor problem.
Run Apple Hardware Test > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1509?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US Plug the MacBook Pro to its charger, choose your language, tick the box to run an extended test and start the test. If at the end of the test you see an error, copy it here.
It's probable that this is a sensor problem, but if the problem doesn't happen during startup, it would be a process which is consuming your CPU. Open Activity Monitor, select "All Processes" above "Show" in the toolbar, and order processes by CPU. Do you see any process which is consuming more CPU than the others?

I turned on my 2011 IMac and the fan is running very loud. What is the problem?

Please help me figure out why my fan is running so loud after turning it on tonight. I have shut it down and turned it on again and rebooted it and it is very loud.
Thank you.

timfrombrisbane and ScuseMe are right.
Apple engineers say, that to reset SMC, you follow the procedure outlined in KBase Article HT1379.
How much you've posted to the forums is irrelevant rkaufmann87. You're not one of the engineers who created the product. The engineers who created the product, say to follow the steps outlined in that article HT1379.
The procedure you listed is incorrect and will not work to reset SMC on an iMac. Read the article. It's there in black and white, with very clear steps. As the article states, you have to unplug the power cable from the back of the machine, wait 15 seconds, plug it back in, then wait 5 seconds before turning it on. The article says nothing about holding the power button for 5 seconds.
People come in here, for computer science advice. I cited my source, for this scientific procedure. My source, is an article from the computer scientists who created the iMac product. I'm also an Apple certified repair technician - so I listen to what the Apple engineers say.
Can you cite your *official* source for your incorrect procedure? Didn't think so.

NEW 3 week old HP Pavilion dv6, cooling fan always running

Hi the cooling fan in this laptop always seems to be running fast enough to be irritating, it was like this out of the box, other laptops I have had usually only run the fan during periods of heavy CPU usage but this one is running fast all the time. Any ideas, and dust in the vents is not the problem, BIOS ?

I also have the same problem. 8 month old HP Pavillion DV6. Bios updated and air vents cleaned. Fan runs constantly even without any load on pc'n.
Installed programme Core Temp to see temperatures and fan runs even at a temp. of 41C. Bios has a function to disable fan from running all the time, but even then, the fan seems to run almost constantly, plus the standard setting for Bios is to have fan runing constantly enabled. Would be greatful for any help/suggestions. This seems to be a problem for this pc when searcing for solutions on the Web.
