Heat dispersal
To protect from overheating, the CPU has an internal temperature sensor. If the
computer’s internal temperature rises to a certain level, the cooling fan is turned
on or the processing speed is lowered. You can select whether to control the CPU
temperature by turning on the fan first, then if necessary, lowering the CPU
speed. Or, by lowering the CPU speed first, then if necessary, turning on the fan.
Use the Cooling Method item of the Basic Setup window in TOSHIBA Power
Saver.
When the CPU temperature falls to a normal range, the fan is turned off and the
CPU operation returns to standard speed.
Note: If the CPU temperature reaches an unacceptably high level
with either setting, the system automatically shuts down to prevent
damage. Data in memory will be lost.
