X200 CPU reaches 100 celsius degrees. is this normal?

I'm using LenovoThinkVantage Toolbox to do a CPU stress test and and the same time I'm running TPFanControl to monitor the speed of the fan and the temperature of the CPU.
When I run the CPU stress test the temperature of the CPU reaches 100 degrees celcius with the fan going at 7000rpms which all of it sounds excessive and not right to me. Is this normal? or there is something wrong with my system.
Thanks in advance

100C is around the maximum the CPU can deal with before sustaining damage. Even then, running at that temperature for extended periods of time is most certainly going to be problematic.
I can't imagine it was designed to be run that way, so I'm guessing there's a problem. Maybe a heatsink is not seated properly, or something is obstructing airflow. Either way, I'd say that if you're under warranty it's worth having the depot take a look.

Problem - Playing media stops when CPU reaches 100%

Hi,
I have a big problem, I use JMF for playing my videos and music for my video game.
But if the CPU reaches 100 % the playing media stops and if the Processor is in the state less as 100% it continues playing.
But windows media player continues playing for some seconds after reaching 100%.
Would it help to increase the Buffer with BufferControl or is this a problem for Java?

You can't really compare JMF to the windows media player because your java app is undoubtedly doing other things at the same time as it's playing your music and videos. Win media player just has to worry about playing the video/music

Hi,
'Oracle 9i' is not a version, it is a marketing label. Please post your full version number x.x.x.x
Also you need to investigate inside the database what is consuming the CPU.
Please refer to v$sesstat and v$statname. v$statname has two statistic items for CPU time being used. You can join both tables, and find out which sessions are consuming the CPU.

Gaps in audio when CPU reaches 100%

Hi,
I am using Adobe Audition 3 on a laptop with the following spec:
Intel Dual Core 1.6GHz CPU
2GB Ram
120GB HD
It records perfectly and normally the CPU usage is around 20%. However if my computer decides it needs to do anything in the background while i'm recording the CPU usage shoots up to 100% and puts a gap in my recording. How can I stop this from happening? I have tried increasing the CPU priority of Audition in Task Manager, but still happens?
Many thanks in advance!

I would also suggest that you defrag your hard drive... I just defragged this laptop and it even starts up smoother. If you have a lot of time to waste you may wish to defrag with VM turned off while in safe mode... I do this all the time under windows XP and it helps a lot... I have also used a program called JkDefrag (http://www.kessels.com/Jkdefrag/) that is much faster and can even be setup as a screensaver to defrag when you're not around, but it's a manual install... Pretty easy to use though as it's pretty automatic and there are no buttons or other options that you need to go through first...
If you are brave and want to defrag in safe mode with Virtual Memory turned off do the following... (Instructions for Windows XP with Classic Control Panel)
Note: If you aren't familiar with setting virtual memory settings then you may want to print these so you can set them in safe mode before restarting again... Or just don't do this at all... Do at your own risk... If you have trouble then well I told you so...
With windows started normally go to the control panel and double-click the System icon.
On the dialog that appears click the Advanced tab and then under performance click the Settings button.
On the new dialog that appears click the advanced tab and under Virtual memory click the change button.
Select the first drive and write down the settings for that drive... Do this for all other drives.
Select the first drive and then select the No paging file option and click the set button... Do this for each drive in the list. (don't forget to press Set)
Press the OK button and Apply or OK on the other dialogs...
A window should pop-up asking you to restart your computer... Close any running programs and click yes to restart your computer...
Press F8 while your computer is starting up to enter the boot menu... If you don't get the boot menu then you missed your chance and will have to try again by restarting...
At the boot menu select Start in safe mode... If you don't see this option then hit F8 again...
You may have to select your windows installation after selecting Start in safe mode... Just hit enter...
When windows starts up click Yes to continue working in safe mode and then goto Start->All Programs->Accessories->System Tools->Disk Defragmenter... In the defrag utility select the first drive and then hit the defrag button... You can do this for all other drives too.
If you decided to use JkDefrag instead of Disk Defragmenter you can simply click Start->Run and Browse to the location you installed the exe files and run either the JkDefrag.exe or the JkDefragCmd.exe and it should defrag all local drives automatically...
When it is finished you should use the instructions I gave you above to turn off Virtual memory to do the opposite and turn it back on... Don't forget to click the 'Set' button when doing so... If you're not sure how to set the virtual memory settings for your drives just make sure that one internal drive is set to System managed and then click the set button and ok and apply on the other dialogs...
And when done restart your computer and see how it starts much faster then before
Anyway that should be it... Hopefully I got it right and nobody really needs to read all that anyway... I'm so bored I should have wasted time somewhere else... And if you have problems making things work after turning off VM then you probably didn't turn it back on Or you don't follow instructions well... Or its me being retarded...
Yeah... Defrag works in safemode and does a better job when it can access all the files on the drive like when VM and Hibernation is turned off... Maybe someone else can right a better tutorial for the FAQ pages...

CPU reach 100% when saving a large report in pdf format

We have some reports that are fairly large. When we schedule them to save in pdf format, the job server takes all the CPU resources, and makes other servers slow. Is there a way to limit how much CPU the job server can take?

Just give
destype=mail desformat=pdf desname=emailid
in cmd line
Which reports version are you using ?
In 9i you have to specify outgoing mail server in
$OH\report\conf\server_name.conf
in this xml element (uncomment it)
<pluginParam name="mailServer">%MAILSERVER_NAME%</pluginParam>

CPU REACHES 99 DEGREES CELSIUS ON 100% LOAD IS THIS NORMAL?

Hi, i have a HP ENVY 15-j171nr and evrytime i run a cpu intensive program where it puts the cpu to 100% load, My cpu temperature jumps to 99 degrees celsius and stays there. Is this normal? of could i have a bad heat sink? Intel rates the CPU (i7-4700k) to 100 degrees celsius.

Hi Sorrentino,
This is normal behavior.

Macbook Pro Retina Late 2013 CPU temperature issues while gaming (99 celsius) Is this normal ?

Hello everyone, this is my first time here. I recently purchased a macbook pro retina late 2013 notebook just over a month ago. It seems to be working just fine. I've installed bootcamp and installed windows 7. I use Speccy for my temperature monitor. I've played DayZ Standalone as well as L4D2. I noticed while playing both games on their lowest settings the CPU temperature consistently stays in the 90 degree celsius range often reaching 99 degrees celsius. I am fairly tech saavy and have a decent knowledge of computers.I bought the ThermaPak Heatshift pad in hopes of cooling it down but to no avail as it only does a great job at cooling everything else. This is my first laptop so I treat it like my baby ! haha I was wondering if these temp readings are normal because I know that even reaching 70 celsius can be somewhat damaging. Thank you for your assistance.
EDIT:
I've attached a screenshot of the temperature for proof

So I just got back from the apple store and wow, what rude service. The guy basically shrugged when I told him "Well, I guess Im stuck with it huh?" after he told me there was no way I could get a refund. He performed a test and told me everything was fine and told me in a very arrogant manner that the test isn't showing the results I told them about as if I was lying....***? He said they can send it away for a few weeks but I don't have any other computer and I just bought this one for school so I can't afford to have it gone for that long. He told me "doesn't your school have a computer lab"? Seriously, how can someone at Apple be this rude? I told him they do but its closed at 7 and I dont live on campus. How could a computer lab replace a personal computer? He basically kept shrugging rudely anytime I tried to find a solution. He didn't even reply with a single word. When I told him I called the call center and they told me that yes it is much too hot and to take it to the store after doing a fix he just chuckled and rolled his eyes. Really? I spent 1500 dollars on this computer to not even be able to do basic things on it without it overheating and the service is this bad? Well, looks like I won't ever be buying an apple product again even though before this experience I was a huge fan of all their products. I know one customer doesnt make a difference to them but come on...looks like I'm stuck with it and apple couldnt give one care. If having your hands uncomfortably hot after a small amount of time is acceptable then it looks like I'll never be buying another laptop from them. Its a shame I really liked it at first.

T60p CPU temperature over 80 degrees celsius

Hello, I installed Notebook Hardware Control and it shows a cpu temperature of 84 degrees (yes celsius!).
I can't put my notebook on my lap because it's too hot.
The fan is louder than it was in the beginning and from time to time it makes a loud noise (like when you're holding a playing card between the spokes of a bike).
The T60p gets almost always that hot, what could be the reason and how can I fix this (it still has warranty)?
Thank you for your answers.
Something additional: I'am not sure about that but it may be that the CPU gets only that hot when the power is coming from the AC adapter (my ac adapter indeed is making also some noise, it's like you could hear the power passing through, is that normal?)

PS the GPU temperature is around 90 degrees celsius as well..
Message Edited by criza on 02-21-2009 05:41 PM

Welcome to the forum!
Yes, these temperatures are very high and you should send the machine in for a checkup. The fan is likely on its way out or just badly clogged with dust.
Good luck.

CPU usage reaches 100 %

I took a screenshot from my jvisualvm. My CPU goes up to 100% in Linux 64 bit and sometimes it goes down back to 10% (mostly just stay at 100%). Can someone check for me where the problem might be ?
[http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/5078/screenshotxya.png|http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/5078/screenshotxya.png]
Thanks.

When it reaches 100% please see the threads which is grabbing more resources..even can do a top on linux to see if your process is the exact one or in concurrency with others causing issues..

I upgraded to iTunes 10.5 on XP and now it and applemobiledeviceservice.exe use 100% CPU. How do I fix this?

I upgraded to iTunes 10.5 on XP and now it and applemobiledeviceservice.exe use 100% CPU. How do I fix this?

When I called Apple Support to ask about the 100% CPU usage, they wanted to charge me because my Ipod was out of warranty. I insisted on talking to someone and finally got to talk to a software engineer for free. He said that he had never heard of the problem in his three years at Apple. Nonetheless, he sounded really interested and suggested that it might be a conflict with anti-virus software. I deleted the antiviruse and that DID NOT HELP AT ALL.
It seems as if Apple could care less. There is no official response. Their primary response is to look at the Forum. At least you find out that the problem isn't your fault, it really is Apple!!!!
So far the best solution is just to delete iTunes and use Mediamonkey to sync your pod.
Apple, please fix this!!!!!

My new Macbook Air's (July 2011) CPU reaches 94 degrees Celcius watching basic, low resolution flash video. Should I be worried?

The fan is inconsistent as well. Sometimes it will stay at 2000 rpm past 80 degrees Cecius and other times it will be at 6000 rpm at 70 degrees celcius. Just watching small flash videos, it hit 94 degrees celcius. In response, the fan only went up to 4000 rpm. Is this normal? That doesn't seem healthy.

if you tried everything (smc reset, pram reset...) but if they didn'T fix your problem, your problem is apple's mistake about thermal paste.
apple using too much thermal paste accidently in their factory and too much thermal paste make problems like this.

My CPU reached 65 degree!!!

Hi all,
I am using KT6 Delta-SR motherboard with AMD 2800+. The temp reading for CPU showed 63-65 degree when using the Core Centre. The fan come with the CPU. The speed of the fan is around 4200rpm.
Is this temperature normal? And i did not O/C my CPU. What should i do now?
Thanks.

Did you remove the tape on the thermal compound on the bottom of the heatsink?
A good thing to do for the gooey thermal compound that is pre applied by the manufacter is to unplug the fan for a little amount of time like 10-15 seconds that way it will heat up and melt and fill any of the microscopic valleys in the heatsink and the cpu die.
I would scrape the gooey junk off with a razor blade clean up the heatsink with some isoproply alcohol then apply a thin amount of thermal paste to the cpu. Thermal goo doesn't hold a candle to a good quality thermal paste stay away from the the cheap knock off silver pastes.
Read the trouble guide it will show you the correct way a heatsink should be mounted which is the step in the heatsink should be mounted so that it is over the cam box of the cpu socket(the part of the socket that says Socket 462) if it isn't the right way you won't have barely any contact to the cpu or you'll have no contact at all.
Airflow inside your case is also a big factor in cpu temps if the fan on the heatsink is sucking and blowing hot or warm air onto it then you'll always have high cpu temps you matter what money spend on a new heatsink. Make sure you have a intake fan providing fresh air into the case, and a exhaust fan to pull away the heated air.

It took about an hour to upgrade my iphone. You're also left a couple of times with a blank screen on the iphone whilst it does things in the background which is a bit confusing. Suggest you wait - it starts doing things again (like reload your apps and then your photos etc) after you think it's finished. It's finished only when it says it is.....

Which Transcation Lead The 'Max. CPU load' Reached 100%?

Hello Gurus,
I've received our EWA report on Sep. 5.
It told me the CPU index 'Max. CPU load [%]' once reached '100%' on Aug. 27.
I want to find out which transcation lead the index to '100%' on that day.
But I still cant' find it out after using OS07/ST06/STO3N/ST06N.
Do you have any good idea for me?
Thank you very much!
