    I'm using the TA6 for a couple weeks now. And I just realize how the fan is always running non-stop and its pretty loud as well. (Before, it wasn't like this at all)
    Is it suppose to be like this??? Or my laptop has a problem??? T_T

    Any other TA6 user having the same problem????

    i had the same problem when i first got my A100 (sk9 model).

    Heres what I did. I went into the toshiba power saver utility and turned down the cooling method all the way down to "battery optimized" and as soon as i clicked ok the fans stopped running like jet engines.
