ok, I spend around 30 min, clean my TOshiba, + change cooler (old one was 7-8 y.o. and I decide to put new) + put new thermo-paste. T droped down from 85 to 53. work better, faster. Toshiba. I'm totally satisfied.
On a newer Satellite I cleaned out the very small amount of dust then I did remove the fan and re applied better heat sink material. I also found out that you can adjust speed in the bios that really reduced the temp to 46c from 70c+. The previous owner burned up the HDD so I installed a new one...Happy camper....
You should replace "Toshiba" with "All" because this problem happens on all laptops that use that squirrel blower against tiny heatsink fins. This is a regular maintenance item I recommend for all of my customers with laptops, and I never find a clean heatsink whenever I clean them.
Thank you much for the video! I've taken many desktops apart and rebuilt them but I was always scared of ruining my Toshiba Qosmio. Now I know what to look forward to and how many parts will have to be accounted for in advance.
Fantastic video ! I like that you also covered the re-assembly. I brought a brand new Toshiba Satellite L755 to China about 6 years ago, it was a powerful machine (at the time -- though it probably still is). I had to stop using it after 3 years, due to extreme overheating though. Tried following videos and guides in the past (I'm no technician), but could never safely get a clear path to getting to the cpu fans and how to replace the thermal paste. This is it --- I'm going to reopen that machine and give it another go ! Any advice for keeping dust *_out_* of the machine after all this is done ?
Thank you for a great video. Why are these people making fun of a free educational shop?. I also had aToshiba and started to over heat due to a clogged fan. It looks like it is a common symptom with this brand. Never happened with my P.C.Sony Or my Mac Pro. People learn something and listen since you got ears but BRAINS !,never mind. Salam.
thank you for video. I'll try to do the same. my Toshiba is 7-8 y. o. now and all this years works almost 20 hours/day. 4 years - in a desert. I like that brand! all this comments with a lot of f.. words - just told to much about that people...
clogged cooling fins at 9:04. surely there must be an easier way to just get at that lint. this (every?) laptop is like having a dryer with no removeable lint filter. my toshiba has started running way too hot and i just wish there was a simpler way to get rid of that lint/dust buildup
since it's cracked open, I'd blow the crap out of it to prevent old dirt recirculating. I'd also spray some synthetic lubricant into the fan bearing. And lastly you'll wanna see if the blades on the fan play a bit, if they do replace with a performance fan for gaming laptops. With a dremel, add additional intake and exhaust slots.
Great video. I've been a PC tech since the TRS-80 days in the 70's. I noticed you threw all of the screws into one bowl. How do you keep the different screw sizes straight when re-assembling?
I guess this goes in the line of.. If it fits its ok. If it doesn't force it so that ti would. I can't believe I'm watching this video in search of another model overheating.
André Amorim That seriously happened last year. The cooling fan was getting clogged up and the laptop kept overheating, or rather the laptop kept shutting itself off to *prevent* overheating and had to watch this video in two minute chunks. lol.
great video mate but you have obviously done this before as i would have little piles of screw with names on them , i watched it i went O.M.G i might give it a go as i am not a tech type person but ill try anything to save some coin and learn i have a l650 d so it was fairly relevant did you have one screw left over for the hard drive ?
I've become a pro a disassembling my toshiba! i could work for them! jajaja. Also if you the right greace, you can open the fan up, and kindly pull the fins off with a pliers on the head (not the fins). It pops off. Then put bearing greace in there. Purrrrrrrrrrr. Also make sure you get good quality thermal paste. And dont apply too much as you can get too much spread and that can actually cause problems so i've heard.
What are the more reliable brands these days? My Toshiba does get hot, but it has run for 7 years! AND survived a light rain shower outside overnight, and has fixed itself numerous times. It has like AI or something...
sorry for the late reply, I saw it but forgot to reply. as for your claim, man my laptop is just too young (1 year old) and has overheating and shutdown even on sid meier 5 game
2 years later, and I agree with you mate. I have a Toshiba Satellite pro and it heats up to 100C playing even older games. Fresh thermal paste and a fan going full on, with a cooling pad! They put the most hopeless tiny vent on the bottom of the machine for air intake.
I use a paste called Arctic Silver that is a little expensive but works great! It's $9 for a very small tube, but it is enough to do a few laptops my cousin who is a computer nerd swears by the stuff. I put it on the CPU GPU as well as around the fan just transfer ports not actually on the CPU GPU LOL
My motherboard is not that easy to disconnect. There are some really bizarre connection cables, one of which has something like a rigid, thin piece of plastic on the surface of one connection, and the connection itself is wrapped in a black matted fabric. And I'm not so keen on totally wrecking my motherboard.
It doesn't really matter if you use something of quality that won't harden over time. This is an old article, so search out some newer info, but it will help you get ideas and help you shop. www.maximumpc.com/article/features/geek_tested_17_thermal_pastes_face?page=0,1 I'm currently using Thermalright Chill Factor 3 and it seems great. Try and research if your paste of choice will harden over time, that's even more important for something difficult to disassemble like most laptops. I've been heavily multitasking for over 10hrs and my system is at 42°C. Make sure to thoroughly and safely (ESD concern) clean off the old paste. I've used 99% iso alcohol and paper towels with good results. Use about a grain of rice sized piece for the new paste.
thanks tony. can u help me wit my girlfriends laptop it has the black screen on start up. but the screen works fine. sa i swaped it in to my laptop and it worked fine. and i tryed to hook it up to a monitor but would not work. and my laptop does this. they are both the same as the one u just fixed. any help would be great. i did the trick of removeing the battery and hold down the on button for 60 sec and still notting
It would have been funny if he took it apart and the insides were packed with Herion and marajauna. And maybe a gun too. And a picture of my girlfriend with no clothes on.

I hope Toshiba doesn't manufacture pacemakers. - "Apply new heat transfer paste." Dandy, a product that will require a ninety minute drive, one way, to purchase. (I'm waaay out in the boonies.) Screw it, I'm gonna use toothpaste, or Astroglide, or something.... - Final step: stand there wondering, "Why the hell do I still have two screws left over?" Oh, and Toshiba? Blow me. You're the Hyundai Excel of laptops.
I thought this video was gonna show the warning and then the after he fixed it cause my computer keeps giving a overheating warning every 10 second or 1 minute i open it.
Fuck that, I'l just end up breaking my laptop for good, why couldn't they just put the fan in a spot where you could reach it by taking apart 1 screw..
Seems an aweful lot of work and BS to clean a fan.. I mean gotta buy special thermal paste and all sorts of crap.. how much does a shop charge for this?
You can. I was a little scared at first too. The only hard parts are 1) removing the cables under the keyboard and 2)keeping track of all the screws. If you can do those two things, you can do eeet! I've done it like 3x on my Toshiba and I'm great with things like cars, but not as delicate, so to speak, but it has survived me, it will survive you.
Consider just setting up a video cam on a tripod aimed down at your laptop on the table. THEN...be the star in your own feature length video! Whenever stuck, just fast review the video forwards or backwards. HINT: use and ice cube tray to keep screws organized!
ok, I spend around 30 min, clean my TOshiba, + change cooler (old one was 7-8 y.o. and I decide to put new) + put new thermo-paste. T droped down from 85 to 53. work better, faster. Toshiba. I'm totally satisfied.
I know that it is now so late to ask. But i want to ask that changing Cpu Fan was a good idea ? I mean did it work.
Toshiba, please design easier ways to clean the cooling system
I did this better than you, because I had 3 screws spare when I put it back together.
:-/
On a newer Satellite I cleaned out the very small amount of dust then I did remove the fan and re applied better heat sink material. I also found out that you can adjust speed in the bios that really reduced the temp to 46c from 70c+. The previous owner burned up the HDD so I installed a new one...Happy camper....
Thanks a lot. my laptop used to run >100° C with heavy work. now
Thank you so much ! i done it after watching this video and since last 6 months my laptop working perfectly fine ! Thanks once again
Don't forget about the vent under the fan where HALF of the vents are closed! Airflow Toshiba! FFS
You should replace "Toshiba" with "All" because this problem happens on all laptops that use that squirrel blower against tiny heatsink fins.
This is a regular maintenance item I recommend for all of my customers with laptops, and I never find a clean heatsink whenever I clean them.
Great video man thanks for the help! I just got my Toshiba apart now just waiting for the thermal paste thank you again!
I cleaned out my Acer laptop with the same process! Temps were great after ^^
Thank you much for the video! I've taken many desktops apart and rebuilt them but I was always scared of ruining my Toshiba Qosmio. Now I know what to look forward to and how many parts will have to be accounted for in advance.

all this comments with a lot of f.. words - just told to much about that people...
Any thoughts on hardware that could be faulty and how to check? Im getting shutdowns at 90 degrees after a deep clean and re pasting.
clogged cooling fins at 9:04. surely there must be an easier way to just get at that lint. this (every?) laptop is like having a dryer with no removeable lint filter. my toshiba has started running way too hot and i just wish there was a simpler way to get rid of that lint/dust buildup
That music sounds like the sims lol.And yes my Toshiba and my brother´s had that issue badly. We moved to other brands...
thanks overheating trouble was fixed
thanks Tony You are the man!
since it's cracked open, I'd blow the crap out of it to prevent old dirt recirculating. I'd also spray some synthetic lubricant into the fan bearing. And lastly you'll wanna see if the blades on the fan play a bit, if they do replace with a performance fan for gaming laptops. With a dremel, add additional intake and exhaust slots.
Nice video but it's crazy to be handling that RAM and Mother Board without some ESD protection.
Thank you very much it really helped
And then a spectator comes by with their peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and drops it on the fan.
Nice, I like the tune :3 really catchy and it's simple :D
Great video. I've been a PC tech since the TRS-80 days in the 70's. I noticed you threw all of the screws into one bowl. How do you keep the different screw sizes straight when re-assembling?

My laptop shut off while watching this. :/
***** No, because it had a problem with overheating, Butthead.
Harsh burn bruh!!
+xiaochicash lol are you serious
André Amorim That seriously happened last year. The cooling fan was getting clogged up and the laptop kept overheating, or rather the laptop kept shutting itself off to *prevent* overheating and had to watch this video in two minute chunks. lol.
xiaochicash
Wow, well, I trust the situation is more than solved now
great video mate but you have obviously done this before as i would have little piles of screw with names on them , i watched it i went O.M.G i might give it a go as i am not a tech type person but ill try anything to save some coin and learn i have a l650 d so it was fairly relevant did you have one screw left over for the hard drive ?
thanks for all
After stripping down everything what did you not clean the the fan and stripped it down after doing all that you could have done that one extra bit
I've become a pro a disassembling my toshiba! i could work for them! jajaja. Also if you the right greace, you can open the fan up, and kindly pull the fins off with a pliers on the head (not the fins). It pops off. Then put bearing greace in there. Purrrrrrrrrrr.
Also make sure you get good quality thermal paste. And dont apply too much as you can get too much spread and that can actually cause problems so i've heard.
excellent video!
one like from Brazil
very thankful :)
Great job mate! Have you ever upgraded the CPU i.e. i3 to i7 core?
What model is this? Is it the same a Tecra P10?
I don't have a Toshiba laptop (yet), but am wondering..... Where did you find this fantastic music?!
What brand of thermal paste should I use? Can you put it in description so others can see?
Good job
the songs on buggle on facebook lol
lol I think every single Toshiba model has an overheating problem
What are the more reliable brands these days? My Toshiba does get hot, but it has run for 7 years! AND survived a light rain shower outside overnight, and has fixed itself numerous times. It has like AI or something...
sorry for the late reply, I saw it but forgot to reply. as for your claim, man my laptop is just too young (1 year old) and has overheating and shutdown even on sid meier 5 game
What's your laptop model?
satellite s70-b. sorry couldnt reply till now.
2 years later, and I agree with you mate. I have a Toshiba Satellite pro and it heats up to 100C playing even older games. Fresh thermal paste and a fan going full on, with a cooling pad! They put the most hopeless tiny vent on the bottom of the machine for air intake.
What part of the lap top did the glasses come out of?
I tore my computer apart looking for the eye glasses.
Where the hell are they?
You mean lenses? In the dvd rom player/burner ;)
So nice video
You should have applied some heat transfer paste to the GPU as well!
I use a paste called Arctic Silver that is a little expensive but works great! It's $9 for a very small tube, but it is enough to do a few laptops my cousin who is a computer nerd swears by the stuff. I put it on the CPU GPU as well as around the fan just transfer ports not actually on the CPU GPU LOL
very good I like
good to know i am not the only one to use toshiba for gaming.
So nice

Try changing RAM.
antistatic wrist band?
I did all of this, but my laptop still overheats and shuts down... Any suggestions?
u safe me bro. T_T
thank u
I already did that process in my toshiba c840 but still pop up the cooling system not working. Csn u pls hrlp me to solve this problem?
Tanks....
If I do this will I lose anything,or have to reset things arterwards, like OS, browser, password manager?
ya?
I GOT A HEADACHE AND TURN MIND OFF!
Never gonna buy toshiba laptop again. Mine overheats randomely at every game or application I launch. Fuck japanese brands
im watching this on an overheating turning itselfdown toshiba xD
It would have been funny if he took it apart and the insides were packed with Herion and marajauna.
And maybe a gun too.
And a picture of my girlfriend with no clothes on.
my fan sounds kicks on pretty loud about a minute after coming on, is that still a fan issue or something else?
But does it slow down after a while? Or is it running loud all the time? Might want to try what the video shows.
mine won't stay on after that, i think it maybe overheats even more than before....
Where can I find this music, ... what is the title and the name of the group?

I thought this video was gonna show the warning and then the after he fixed it cause my computer keeps giving a overheating warning every 10 second or 1 minute i open it.
Why do these repair videos never show the laptop actually working after the repair?
Fuck that, I'l just end up breaking my laptop for good, why couldn't they just put the fan in a spot where you could reach it by taking apart 1 screw..
I know a guy who took his computer apart and he found a severed finger inside it.
+Bummy pump - that's nothing, i took my laptop apart and found loads of finely powdered human skin
Bitch, please. I opened my laptop and found leafy's missing chin.
man all that shit just clean out the fan d
was watching da until the first mins and then skiped to 6:53 ... HOLY SHIT IM NAT DOING THIS
same issue withme...
my laptop reboot and started beeping while watching the video
Seems an aweful lot of work and BS to clean a fan.. I mean gotta buy special thermal paste and all sorts of crap.. how much does a shop charge for this?
Ro Jones just take the fan off and leave the cooling fins/copper heatsinks on the board and thermal compound is cheap like 3-10$
oh, my god! This is a very lengthy process. I can't do this.
You can. I was a little scared at first too. The only hard parts are 1) removing the cables under the keyboard and 2)keeping track of all the screws. If you can do those two things, you can do eeet! I've done it like 3x on my Toshiba and I'm great with things like cars, but not as delicate, so to speak, but it has survived me, it will survive you.
maybe he cant because after open all the part,he dont know how to put it back
Fajar Awesome
you just do it while standing on your head and it goes together backwards perfectly :)
If We forget it?

nico no thermopaste on cpu waht noob only gpu wha wha wha wha wha rookiesssssssssssss
i prefer an professional do it
You feel we need to here any sound at all, Wrong. Quiet in fine.
lol... i have DIY liquid cooler fan here...
nice vid, too much work lol, terrible music choice
I have no idea why everyone is whining about how long it takes to take it apart...My computer takes about double that.
And plus there are basically no complete teardown guides exept for one picture slideshow.
Even the keyboard? what the actual fuck Japan
u must, because if someday the keyboard is "wasted" u still can replace with new one than built-in keyboard
Yes i know that however, other laptops you can fix the over-heating problem without having to strip your laptop this much.
The fan you bought is a fake, and no one is using it.
poor comments below. Is this video poor.
Lmao aint gonna do this shit im just gonna vacume my fucking laptop fucking EZ
lmfao same XD
lmao it aint work like that fam, gl though
