Toshiba Mobile Care have come through with the delivery of the laptop within 24 hours as promised. I got a report explaining what had been repaired. According to the report the following was repaired:
- Replaced CPU Fan
- Cleaned Dust from CPU Heatsink (why not just replace the fan and heatsink most desktops and laptops have them standard as one part)
- Updated BIOS
- Battery being replaced and is on backorder.
I have been running it all day next to me at work and currently its cpu temperature is at 38% and the fan is running at 81%… All it is doing is running Media Player and sitting there… I guess it is no wonder why the Toshiba A500 Overheated. I will be putting the Antec Notebook Cooler 200 on the laptop when it gets home so it will be interesting to see the CPU temperature after a while of it running.
