Satellite A110 shut down suddenly - CPU fan is not working

Hello!
The CPU fan on my brand new A110 is not working. The notebook will shut down suddenly, without hibernation or standby for any CPU consuming activity.
Can it be linked to a configuration/ software problem? If so, how to check it?
Many thanks.

Hi
For me it seems 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 dont think the dust and debris are responsible for such automatically shut downs.
Why you dont take your warranty??? If the warranty is valid everything should be checked and replaced for free

Edge 130 overheats and shuts down, but CPU fan runs at low speed

Hi! I am having a problem with my Edge E130, running un Windows 8.1 64-bit. When running under high load the laptop will at times overheat so much that the system does a hard shutdown - it simply powers off. I installed Speedfan - it shows the CPU at above 90 degrees celsius. The weird thing is that the CPU fan is not running at full speed. I do not know why. Is there a way to fix this? The fan should at least run at full speed. Thanks in advance!

Thank you for the reply! I can't seem to find a black and white sticker. There is a sticker which is black with light grey text. Is it one of these two numbers? label P/N 0B07208CT1 label P/N 0B95210 I am not using any fan control software. Also, my BIOS version is the latest available from Lenovos support site. (when I update the BIOS last time, the fan was running at very high RPMs for a while during the install. So it seems it would be possible for it to run faster)

My lenovo G505s shuts down suddenly and key board stops working at times

Hi,
I have bought this laptop 10 days ago, I am facing two problems 1st is, it shuts down(suddenly off not proper shut down) while working without showing any error message, and the problem no 2 is its key board stops working at times, system is working fine but all the buttons of key board are not responding. it will work when I restart the system.
please help what should I do, could it be replaced?

Welcome to the Lenovo Community !
Sorry to hear of your problems. I would suggest that you try a reset of the BIOS just to rule out any hardware conflicts the system may have. Try this........
1. Unplug the charger / adapter.
2. Remove the battery.
3. Press and hold the Power Button for 15 seconds.
4. Re-install the battery, plug in the charger / adapter if needed and power up the system to see if the problem was resolved.
If the problems weren't resolved by doing the reset then I suggest you contact Lenovo Support for warranty service. Both the problems you mentioned could be related to faulty hardware and the service center would be best equipped to check out your new laptop. You can find the phone number for Lenovo Support in your country or area by using the link below....

Satellite A100 - Shut down by itself and will not boot anymore

Satellite A100 PSAA9A-10U038. Laptop shut down by itself whilst in use. No BIOS upgrades or changes. No lights of any kind showing, no POST.
I have tried the AC power adapter on another machine and works fine. Called Toshiba told me power adapter probably at fault, if I wish to have them look will cost $120.
I'm thinking maybe motherboard died? Any help would be appreciated.

hi Laptop Larry,
try to boot without the batterypack....
can you see the "toshiba screen" while booting?
you can also try to:
- remove hdd
- remove added memory (with no mem the unit should "beep")
- remove odd (cd-drive)
if you cant get the system to boot (able to enter bios, see toshiba logo on screen, no beep)
than it's possible that your mobo died...

G4 MDD/FW800: shut down and restart commands do not work

Hey all,
I've done some searching here and on the internet in general and haven't turned up anything useful.
Suddenly my G4 no longer shuts down when I select "shut down" from the Apple menu. The "Restart" command also does not work.
What happens is this: The machine goes through the normal process of quitting all apps that are open and then just hangs once there's nothing left (no menu bar, no dock) but the desktop picture. I have to touch and hold the power "button" on my ADC display to shut the machine down.
The machine is set to start up every weekday at 7AM but does not do this any longer.
I've run TechTool Deluxe; the Apple Hardware Diagnostic CD (that came with my G4); I've replaced the backup/clock battery; reset the PMU (by pressing the PMU button following Apple procedure). I've re-seated all 4 memory DIMMs. I took out the third-party USB 2.0 card.
No effect.
Coincidentally, all this happened immediately after I played Halo for the first time in over a year. My Mac worked fine. Then I decided to play Halo. After quitting Halo the Mac wouldn't shut down via the "Shut Down" command.
Weird.
One other note: After running the extended hardware test from the CD, the "Shut Down" button worked.
Am I looking at an OS issue? I'm dreading having to re-install the OS. I've never had to so this on an OS X Mac. This is the FIRST time I've had any problems with this Mac-- I suppose a trouble-free 6 years is a pretty good run, but I can't easily afford a new Mac right now, no matter how much I'd like to get a new iMac.
A few details:
Mac OS X 10.4.11
2GB memory
Generic USB 2.0 card
Additional HD on the 66MHz bus
Thanks for any suggestions!
-Brian

I created a new account with admin access. The "shut down" command didn't work then, either.
I checked out the activity monitor and syslogd was using 0.00% CPU.
This is driving me nuts!
I want to clarify something I mentioned earlier: When booted from the Hardware Diagnostics CD, I was able to shut the machine down by clicking on the "shut down" button on the diagnostics dialog window.
That makes me thing that something in the current installation of the OS is messed up. (Thanks to Halo?)
Fortunately the computer and all apps seem to run fine-- I work on this computer all day running Adobe apps. It's just the shutting down at the end of the day that's problematic. My concern is that this is symptomatic of a more serious problem.
Perhaps reinstalling the OS is the next step?
Thanks for your suggestions so far-- I greatly appreciate it!

MBP will not shut down, also F keys etc. not working. Help?

Hello, must preface that I am not a very computer-savvy person, so please explain as if to a four-year old.
My MBP is about 4 years old, but has been working great all that time. Suddenly, a problem.
I realized that most of my F keys have ceased working, such as turning on the backlit keyboard, adjusting screen brightness, and adjusting volume. I thought a restart would fix it, but my machine will not restart or shut down. I click to request it, but nothing happens. I also try to view "about this mac" from the apple-icon menu (wanted to provide that info for this entry), but the spinning beach ball of doom appears for a moment, then vanishes, and the panel with the info does not open. Also, some of my hot corners have stopped working. Otherwise, it works fine. All my software works, and no sudden crashes.
I haven't installed any new software recently, or done anything out of the ordinary to the MBP, for a few months at least.
I haven't forcequitted the machine, tried to start in safe mode, or started while pushing command, R, P, option, or anything else. I did clear the caches and ran disk utility to repair permissions... then saw another post online saying I *shouldn't* do that stuff. Doh.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this? Obviously, the machine is out of warranty, I do have the disks that came with the machine, and I run time machine regularly...but I'd rather not have to do a fresh reinstall of everything, if it can be avoided.
Any help would be much appreciated.

"I haven't forcequitted the machine, tried to start in safe mode, or started while pushing command, R, P, option, or anything else."
do command-option-p-r
if that does't do it reset the smc.

Shut down without warning @ 30% , firewire not working , sleep mode problem

Hello!
I seem to have a combination of problems in which I believe that somehow they must be related altogether. I would appreciate any advice you may have on the cause of these problems and/or any solutions. Here's a detailed list of the problems:
1. The computer shuts down without warning at about 30% battery.
2. The Firewire doesn't seem to work when I try to connect my external HD.
3. The firewire Bus data is not shown on the System Profiler.
4. The sleep mode doesn't work; if I press the "sleep" icon, it doesn't respond to it.
5. When I close the lid and open it again, the screen remains turned off which requires me to force shut down the computer every time. Yet, it seems that its only the screen that does not want to come back up, the unit seems operational.
6. The sleep light indicator does not pulse when lid is closed, it stays on.
Actions taken:I have tried resetting the Power Management Unit (PMU) to no avail. Have the battery update. Have reset the PRAM.
Thanks in advance for any help!

CPU fan plug stopped working

I started my rig the other day (actually about 3 weeks ago) and the cpu fan was not moving. Tried a few things but finally stuck the cpu fan plug into the sys1 fan slot and its now working. Will this be a problem in the future or will the mobo be fine without the cpu fan plug not working?
Everything else seems to be working fine - any suggestions on what to do?

I see no problem on not having your cpu fan plugged directly into the cpu header... but it may just be a tempory fix for an underlying problem. Any stability issues? Also if that header dies you can always plug directly into the power supply 4 pin to 3 pin cables are not hard to come by.
Good Luck

HP Elitebook 8470p - from battery the fan is not working

Hello Everybody elitebook Expert!
My laptop config in short: i5-3320m 2.60GHz with integrated graphics Intel HD4000, 4GB Ram.
I don't like the elitebook 8470p cooling system and i can't see the normal reason of the machanism.
So, there is no problem when the laptop is on AC power, the fan is on and works well and this is ok.
But, i have problem when the laptop is on Battery because when the laptop is in idle mode the fan is not working but stay.
Only starts then just when it attains the 55 degrees. This is not good, moreover it is bad for me, i dont like it because it is warm.
I want the ventilator to work so when the machine is on AC power everytime on Battery too.
In the BIOS there is no option for that and i can't see why...
Plase help me! I need a program what can turn on the fan when the laptop is on battery or a tweaker or something else i don't know what but i need something.
Aida64 says: motherboard name is: HP 179B
BIOS type is: Compaq EFI
BIOS version: 68ICF Ver.F.32 Date: 2012/05/12
(I know that there is a newer BIOS but i don't think so that there is an option in the new that can handle the fan on battery mode).
(Sorry for my English please).
Ákos

Thanks for the question Akos,
I understand that CPU FAN does not work on battery mode in windows mode however it works in BIOS mode.
firstly, as you know BIOS has control over CPU fan and CPU thermal table - however OS has better thermal managements. once PC is up, BIOS information and thermal control is handles by OS. to trigger a change it has to be still routed through firmware only however instructions are based on the BIOS thermal table and windows power management.
we know the thermal management of windows is better than BIOS and best to provide you best battery performance. so in BIOS CPU fan may be not mostly spinning all the time but in windows its more effective.
one example for the same is, when you update BIOS on your PC or we-write a BIOS - CPU FAn will be running at full RPM during the process because windows does not control the CPU fan at that time due to update/change process.
its completely normal that you see most of the time CPU FAN is off or spins for a very minimal time. if its always off that means there is something wrong, however if its seen off on battery in windows - its ok. i do not think there is anything wrong here.
if you want to have the FAN run always, that means you need to run your PC at a poor/bad thermal table. which i do not think possible with windows 8 platform because its largely looks like a mobile focused(better battery run time) platform.
you may try installing any of the older (prefer non-windows OS) to check. however its not recommended. because it may result in a damage to hardware too (if a non-supported OS used).
Hope this helps... Good Luck !!!!!

WW

HSTNN-E06C - Fan is not working, need a replacement.

Hello.
I have a HSTNN-E06C laptop. It seems that my CPU fan does not work anymore.
Before I got my laptop disassembled, I would like to prepare myself with proper components. I would like to ask You what is the FAN product code, so I will be able to order a fan replacement?
can you also provide me some service manual, which will help me to take the laptop apart in proper order.
Fan replacement should not be any problem for me, so I really count on you, guys
Thanks in advance.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

If it is the fan that is you're having problem with, you can replace it. HP doesn't provide cooling fan alone as spare part.
You might want to contact the online sellers mentioned above or your local stores with the part number & ask about it.

Satellite P20-S203 shuts down suddenly

Hi,
In the last month my Satellite P20-S203 is not behaving so well, and unfortunately it seems the problem is a hardware one (but I'm not sure, and that's why Im writing here)
The computer just shuts down suddenly (it happened 2 or 3 times in the last 30 days); all the times it did happen I was on the web on Firefox, but I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with that, and I'm also 99% sure it's not a virus, malware or anything like that, cause I formatted about 3 months ago, and nothing else behave in a strange way, the computer is not slow or anything like that.
The last two options are that the issue may be of hardware nature, or of a software one (like a conflict between installed programs and the OS); I'm more for the first one, but I'm not sure and I need help to find out... What should I do?
Also, when it suddenly shuts down, it won't turn on with the first try.
It needs like 10 or 20 times to open, like an old car that doesn't start; the first, say, 5 times I try to turn it on, it will only display the toshiba logo.
Then it passes through a screen I cannot read because it's too fast.
Then to a black screen and finally it turns off again.
With the next tries it goes a little bit more far, like it displays the windows logo, but, as that picture fades in, it stops at half of the fading process, resulting in a darker windows logo, like it's too hard for it to load the OS!!
But then it goes off again!
Then after some other tries it finally loads windows.
Any help would be highly appreciated, thank you!
OS: Windows XP SP2

No it's ok Jayjay, I purchased this morning the right screwdriver (here in Greece these type of screws are called "French" or most internationally "torx" screws).
So I took away the cover above the fans, unscrewed the heat sink, removed the heat sink and together with that the cpu came up. I've now removed the old thermal grease and I'm ready to put the new one.
I like to mess around with things, I like to assemble and disassemble, I like to know how things work...but I also know, thanks to my personal experience, that there's no way not to make any damage when you mess around :) but that's ok with me, I' m used to it, as soon the pc will open once finished :D
Anyway, I have to admit that if I worked with a little more method now everything would be ok, like making a map of the screws, knowing where to put them back, because now two screws on the back won't mount any more (precisely the F6 screws on the back panel, where the usb, vga and parallel connectors are), and two more screws are in excess (!) If someone has the time to do it, please unscrew just these two screws (the F6 on the back) and post a photo of the screws, or just tell me the height, even if I'm sure that the problem is elsewhere.
Goodbye

Satellite P10-804, machine shutted down suddenly

hi all!
i bought my laptop 2 years ago and recently found that the laptop shut down suddenly without any notice.. not bcos of the virus as there's no symtom about that.
I'm not sure if the laptop is too hot or what reason caused the machine shut down. and as I'm now not living in UK and in my country, this model had not be launched so i cannot check the machine in my country.
if anyone had this problem or if anyone know the reason, please let me know! thanks!

my hp pavilion dv1000 (1615ts) has an overheating problem and shuts down suddenly. please help..

with that age of laptop we immediately suspect an issue with dust clogging the exhaust fan or the thermal compound between the heatsink and fan breaking down and needing to be replaced. The laptop needs to be opened and inspected in other words.
